I enjoy this podcast very much. I was a builder at one time. I built all of the Independence Cherubini’s with the Cherubini family. I especially loved the conversation you had with Tony Fleming. It reminded me of some of the stories I was told back when Frit Cherubini started. Keep up the good work. I will be listening and subscribing to the magazine. Joe McDonough
