You can listen. Great topics, good banter, and taco sauce
I’ve said it before but will keep on flying the flag! Awesome shows. Sounds like good friends, very genuine guys talking in a garage or basement. Very informative but also very very easy and fun to listen to. Hopefully it continues on for years
Stumbled upon this podcast during a lull in my modeling and the positive energy has gotten me back into working on my layout and projects. Always a fun conversation on great and interesting topics. The guests have been great as well. Keep up the good work and I’m looking forward to the continuation of the Short Line of the Show series!
