Testing For Echo – Episode 40 – Keeping It Pretty Clean– Orig. Air Date December 23, 2023

Posted on by Posted in chsr, Current Shows, General, Testing For Echo

Hello again everyone. I had a bit of a little thing today while doing this show.

I had a great older song by a very famous person ready to drop in. I hadn’t listened to the song for a few years so I popped it in and listened. There were a few more bad words than I remembered.

Now I am certainly not going to be Censor Guy. I use bad words as much and anyone. But I decided that I don’t want that for this show.

If my grandmother was to sit down and listen to this show, I wouldn’t want to shock her. Especially during the day when this show is on.

So that’s my gauge.  I hope you are okay with that but I will certainly talk about it with you.

You know how to reach me. 🙂

NOW, please head down the page to the little arrow to download/listen to the show. 

Take good care,

Tim

Hello there everyone. I hope that all is well.

Again, this episode bounces around a fair bit between  older and newer music.

The Lunchbox Interview: Barry Braun, “The Good Neighbour App”

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

Few of us live in the midst of a vast desert, isolated deep in the woods, or on a lonely mountaintop, so why do so many of us live as if no one else is around?

My guest today is Barry Braun, founder of the Happy Community Project. He joins me to talk about the concerns he has for how separated most of us are from others in our community, including those who live right next to us. One tool he’s created to help with that is the Good Neighbour App, an “anti-social media” social app, and opportunity to re-learn how to be a better participant in your very local community.
