Hello friends!  We’re back with another podcast for you!  This week we’re talking about my trip to Uganda with Compassion International, the Olympics, Tracy’s love of Matthew McConaughey, and finger-knitting.  Let’s hop right into this thing, shall we?



These days are busy busy days!  I was in Uganda learning about the wonderful work on Compassion International.  While I was away Tracy sponsored a little girl in Togo!  That’s pretty incredible!  Thanks, maj!


You can totally sponsor a child too!


You can find my posts on Uganda here, here, and here.


I also traveled with some really wonderful, kind, hilarious, and insightful people.  Check out Shaun Groves, Jeff Goins, Emily Freeman, Bri McKoy, and Myquilyn Smith.


Emily and Myquilyn can also be heard on Tsh’s podcast The Art of Simple.  This holiday episode features both Emily and Myquilyn.  It’s so great!



Speaking of Tsh, Tracy read Tsh’s book Notes From A Blue Bike.  It’s so great!  I’m listening to the audiobook because sometimes my eyes are lazy.  Not literally.


Are you watching the OLYMPICS???!


We’re just watching Johnny Weir’s Instagram. That’s all we really need isn’t it?




Sometimes TV shows feel like real life. Like…you mean to tell me that House of Cards isn’t real? We certainly hope that True Detective (OBSESSED) is all just make believe. Good- Solid -Well-Written-MAKE BELIEVE.


Tracy can’t get enough of the Bullet Journal. It’s all about the INDEX!



Thank you for writing in Carrie!  It’s cool that you still live at home!  Get down with Suze Orman!  She’ll tell you what to do with all that money you’re saving.  For real.  Be rich!


Brian!  Thank you for listening and writing in to proudly tell us about your finger dexterity.  That’s cool!  Stephanie from Figs In My Belly, we thank you for writing in!  Also Sara of Cake Over Steak is absolutely killing it with her illustrated food blog!  Check it out!  Thank you for calling in Robert!


We love you and we thank you for listening.  It really does mean a lot to us!
