This podcast features Bobby Angel’s ballad of a local …

Who found paradise in his backyard swamp.

An untimely death, a life remembered. In honor of an outspoken outdoor enthusiast, Billy Joiner. Stay on after the song to hear an interview with Bobby Angel about the song and what made Billy Joiner an inspiration for all those who know him.

As boring as the title sounds ...

Florida Weather is actually an exciting book.

And most of a rereadable.

In this podcast, we explore why.

The first one made sense ...

After that, it sort of got out of control.

By the end it left us wondering if we'd be better off doing nothing at all.

Water was rapidly vanishing from south Florida ...

Until out of nowhere a Big Rain Day (BRD) put the drought on pause.

But how long will the reprieve last?  And when will the wet season begin?  And what exactly is a BRD?  This podcast explores those questions and more.

When is a forest so ugly, it’s tragically beautiful?

In this song Bobby Angel takes a stand for those trees.

And stay tuned in afterwards to hear a wide-ranging interview with Bobby Angel on the making of the song.

It may be perhaps …

The most underappreciated sense.

We all know the perils of stopping at midstream.

First and foremost, your horses will be washed downstream.

But is this really good advice?

I’m several decades into the game and I’ve never crossed a stream with a horse. Usually when I ford a stream its using a bridge. And metaphorically speaking, isn’t the middle of the stream a good place to be? It’s the banks where the troubles lie. Expections. Time tables. Too many things to be done. In the middle of the stream all expectations are washed away. That leaves you with two options, go with the flow downstream, or fight the current and go upstream to find the headwater source. The headwater source is an oracle of infinite wisdom. On the other hand, floating downstream to the open ocean with achieve a similar result.

My recommendation: Go midstream and stay there.

Welcome to the Go Hydrology Podcast.  It's where we talk about the water.  In this podcase, we explore the history of the Caloosahatchee - how it once function and how it functions in the modern day as the primary high-water spillway for the Lake and the Everglades.  It's really the story of how a small stream got turned into a major release valve.

Sometimes old traditions …

Need a new log on the fire.

Why so?

Cavemen and women invented the campfire, and they did a fine job. We won’t take that away from them. But that’s not an excuse for campfires not keeping up with modern times. That’s where Campfire Park comes in. We didn’t invent the campfire, we just trying to make it better (and more welcoming) for the new geologic unit (i.e. After Phones (AP)) that we happen to found ourselves in.

In a nutshell: That means instead of you going out, we bring the campfire right to your door.

So kick back and enjoy the podcast.

How lonely does it get ...

for a pencil in a can on a desk?

Answer: Very lonely whenever the Boogie Phone is there, and that's most of time.
