   Cousins Still?

   Canadians and Americans are more than just neighbors, but they’re not quite siblings either.  They’re more like cousins.  At least they used to be, before Americans voted in the much older, much disimproved version of the soiled orange sock puppet.  On this episode of Old & Confused, Jon and Mike talk with two ex-pats - one Canadian, one American - about their experiences and views living in the other’s home country.  There’s more than Quebec poutine and Kentucky bourbon on offer here, eh?

   Let's Build a BARN!

   Ray Kinsella. A regular small-town dude, living a regular life doing regular things. Until one day, he heard a small, insistent voice - "If you build it, they will come." So he did. And then they did. What if instead of a baseball field in a cornfield, you built a BARN, a place where you could make some of your own handmade dreams come true? You don't need to go to Iowa. It's on Bainbridge Island. On this episode of Old & Confused, Mike and Jon talk with a pair of dreamers, who together with a group of like-minded friends and neighbors, built a truly remarkable maker space for the use and enjoyment of their community and beyond. It's quite a story. Join us. Dream.
