Hello friends!
I just wanted to give an update to our last episode where I asked you to stick around and that I would not hang up my podcasting hat just yet. I took some time to think about the show and what I wanted to do. I consulted my good friend I prayed a lot about it, I consulted with my wife, and also my good friend Shawn Rapier, multiple times. And I’ve come up with a new podcast called “Go Ye Forth”. It’s a 24-hour non-stop pun podcast. Just kidding. It’s actually a podcast where I speak with returned missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and hear about their experience as they served all across the globe.
So there might be wee bit of Rocky Mountain Sunshine here and there, but for now, check out “Go Ye Forth” because I’ll be posting episodes there more often.
So until next time, Cheers from the Pacific Northwest!

One Year Anniversary - Ep. 54
I am happy that you are joining me today for the 1 year anniversary of the Rocky Mountain Sunshine podcast. How has a year already gone by? Crazy!
Here are some statistics that you may find boring, but I’ll share them anyway.
My top listened-to episode is still # 19 where I do nothing but talk about all the cars that I’ve owned. What this tells me is more of you like cars that you let on apparently.
The majority of our listeners are in the USA but here are my top 10 outside of the U.S.:
Australia #2 - Gu-day mate
UK # 3 - Ellow
Germany # 4 Guten talk
Indonesia # 5 - Halo
Netherlands # 6 - Goeden dag
Saudi Arabia # 7 - Marhaban
Canada # 8 Hello and Bonjour for the french Canadians
Mexico # 9 - Hola
And # 10 is Brazil
France is # 19 _ Bojour mes amis! Why are you all the way down to # 19? Pourquoi es-tu au dix-neuf ?
Estonia is #23. “Tear-ah”. You can do better Estonia! #23?
The Czech Repulic is my least listened to country, except for all the countries who don’t listen at all. I’m looking at you Iceland!
What else can I tell you about our listeners? 64% listen on Apple Podcasts. 5% on Spotify. It goes down from there to a variety of other podcast platforms.
The age group that listens to the podcast the least is age 23-27. Or as I call it, the age group that apparently does not like puns. They tuned out quickly. You must appreciate a good pun to be a listener.
I have really enjoyed learning over the past year how to podcast. I got a lot of tips from my buddy Shawn Rapier along the way. He’s always a great resource and has helped.
Tune if for more!

Mayberry with Mat Hyder - Ep. 53
Today is a special episode where I have a guest. I have my good friend Mat Hyder joining me over zoom! As an introduction, Mat was a former neighbor and ward member when I lived in Highland, Utah. We served in a bishopric together.
He is a wonderful father who will soon have a missionary heading out.
He is a pediatric nurse at Primary Children’s Hospital. He would visit often when my son Xavier was up at Primary Children’s for several months.
Mat recently started a podcast that has nothing to do with medicine and has everything to do with Mayberry.
He is also a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
It’s a fun episode, so without any further delay, let’s get into it!
Welcome to the Show Mat Hyder!
It’s great to have you on and even better just to have the opportunity to catch up!
Mat and I were neighbors in Highland Utah, and Mat still lives in Highland and is probably trying to repair all the damage that I did.
Isn’t it crazy how much the world has changed even since I lived there in Highland?
We didn’t zoom much unless it was you zooming by on your motorcycle.
So I was trying to think when was it that you moved into the ward in Highland? Oh yeah…
Well, I’m jumping the gun here. We’ll get into your podcast later, but first let’s get to know Mat. Let’s take it back a twitch.
You talk about this a lot on your podcast but tell us about where you grew up.
Where do you fit in with your siblings?
Were you raised in the Church?
What was it like growing up outside of Utah and being a member of The Church?
Were you always active?
Do you think it’s harder or easier for kids to grow up in the Church in Utah or outside of Utah?
How is it that you became such a big fan of John Denver?
I was guessing that you were leaving on a jet plane, you didn’t know when you would be back again. Or maybe you were heading to a country road, to take you home, you noticed some sunshine on your shoulder and thought, I should look up this John Denver guy!
And now you are here, with little rocky mountain sunshine on your shoulders. Does it make you happy?
I had the John Denver Christmas album with the Muppets.
He was on with the muppets a little too often. I think he may have been a muppet who just went solo.
Did you ever see him in concert?
