  • Jared Thatcher plays the long game.

    Jared Thatcher is one of my favorite people. It’s been a while since he’s been back because his didn’t have internet. I believe in my heart that he ran for mayor of his town ,and won just to get internet. It’s very possible. Jared is the the Bladesmith of Boothill Blades. He also runs his family farm Three Daughters Farm, with his wife Kylee who also makes beautiful carved wood utensils at Boothill Kitchen. If that wasn’t enough, in the last year Jared started training British Labradors and created TDF Kennels and it’s amazing to watch the development of these extraordinary dogs and to hear the intense origin of TDF. Jared is someone I look up to because of his preparation, discipline, and belief in the long game. It was a great conversation as always and Jared told awesome stories of being a small town mayor too. Now that he’s got Internet he’ll definitely be back. Thanks again Your Honor. - GF

  • The Downward Spiral: Pure Yang

    Niko Tavernise was my first podcast partner on the Downward Spiral Podcast 13 years ago. We’d always catch up and then tackle some weird news.(Definitely look in the archives here for more DSP eps.) Niko is a Hollywood Set photographer and is back home from being on the sets of two huge movies coming soon. We talked about set life, how the Writer’s strike is currently affecting things and hit on some wild news. It’s always fun and I look forward to him coming back soon in person. Love that guy.

  • Leah Aripotch: Whatever it takes!

    Leah Aripotch is Back! I’m such a fan of her work; the intensity, intricate control, command of material and fearlessness. But I think I’m more of a fan of the person she is. Leah is very self aware and understands what she needs to do to find happiness. When it comes to mental health and addressing it in a positive way Leah is very proactive and puts in the work. We talked about something that is directly affecting her mental health and physical work and how she is dealing with it. We talked about her sculpture and what the future holds. Leah is fantastic and a wonderfully talented, self aware person. I’m grateful for her generosity and candor and appreciate her friendship. All the best-GF

  • Riley Kirkpatrick

    Before social media, there was a concern about how forging will flourish in the future. There were lots of organizations, guilds and small groups devoted to people in the community, but how do you get more exposure to the general public? With the rise of social media, more talented blacksmiths, blade smiths and farriers are exposing to the world the beauty of forging. And if thats the case, right now a lot of them have seen it being done by Riley Kirkpatrick. Riley is a very skilled Farrier and blacksmith who has had an incredible rise in the social media game. With short form content showing excellent forging, people are taking notice and I for one am grateful. Most likely more people are being exposed to general forging from Riley than any organization devoted to it. 

    We had a great conversation about his life, farrier school, long days and what it takes to service horse ranches. And we talked about Riley’s great podcast “Forging Brains” on Spotify. Riley is an important voice in the forging world; I’m glad he’s here and we will definitely see him again! Thanks again for your flexibility and generosity with your time. All the best- Geoff

  • Barcelona!!!

    After an amazing 10 days in Barcelona, Spain with my great friends at Florentine Kitchen Knives I’m back with a recap. I had recorded with Tomer Botner, and 10 minutes in construction workers started rattling our cages upstairs and jack hammered the audio into oblivion. I’ll get him back. Tomer is a busy guy. I talked about the Workshops, fun with the students and the incredible food. Fun Solo ep I hope you like it.

  • Solamente!!!

    This was an episode I’ve been thinking about for a while. I spent time remembering my Uncle Jay St. John and told funny stories in his memory. He was a huge part of my upbringing, always joking and encouraging me to swing at pitches. Very funny memories and I may have gone too far. Haha. I had some dream revelations and talked about the great our pouring of kind words from the last episode with my daughter. Thanks again. -GF

  • Lila!!!

    My daughter Lila joins the podcast as she’s days away from graduating High school. We talked about the stresses of juggling College applications while participating as a Varsity swimmer and keeping a her grades up. It was an interesting conversation that neither of us expected. A lot of new perspectives and some good take aways. We recapped stories from each others point of view and had some laughs. I’ll definitely have her back. 

     

    **P.S. Im very very proud of all her accomplishments- Merit Scholar, Ranked Swimmer and very kind and dedicated Daughter. She makes me and her Mother incredibly proud and were going to miss her but are very excited for her very bright future. Love you like crazy- Dad

  • Chris Cash Rides Again!

    My man Chris Cash(AKA @Mt_phillip_metal_works on instagram) is back! Blacksmith, Artist, Facilitator, Tool Restoration Champion, Podcaster and many many more. I love this guy. One of the nicest most honest friends who will tell you how it is. We had a great time talking about the logistics of buying an old power hammer how he gets it back to his shop, completely restore and figure out how to get it to its next home. So interesting hearing how he works. We talked about his new Sculpture “Bound” and the evolution of his work, and his podcast The Axe & Iron Podcast with my guy Roy Scott. Give it a listen and give him a follow. Thanks again Chris- very glad you’re my friend. All the best, Geoff

  • Matt Stagmer goes yard.

    Matt Stagmer returns for a fun conversation about Baseball, Sports and the relationship between fandom and the maker community. Is there a relationship? Very excited for Matt who’s holding a class at the Blade show this year on how he had to unlearn old habits in order successfully pass the Journeyman smith test last year; should be very informative. Matt is the man and we always have a great time when he’s here. Thanks again- GF

  • Do The Right Thing!

    What’s going on? This was quite a week with unforeseen things coming up that had to be addressed. 

    I had guest lined up and I was fired up and something came up that I had to Postpone the show. No choice. And it was the right on I’m convinced. Who was it? Why was it postponed and what the hell. All will be explained as I solo’d the show this week. It was fun bringing t back to my roots. Give it a listen. Thanks- GF
