Jim and Barb Work From Home

Wikipedia defines a midlife crisis as "a transition of identity and self-confidence that can occur in middle-aged individuals, typically 45 to 65 years old." Neither of us hit the age range that they thing it should occur but we still talk around the topic and don't really come to any conclusions. If that's the sort of thing you are interested in then tune in and listen up.

Jim and Barb talk about cheese. What is our favorites. What is our least favorites. Why should you get cheeses for presents. Why should you not tell other people that they don't need cheese.

Jim and Barb return to our respective homes and fire up the mics again. The surprise topic is the "Internet of Things" and it should come as a surprise to few of you that Jim railroads the conversation into raising awareness on how giving local law enforcement access to a civilian surveillance network is not a good thing.

We couldn't have Barb leave without recording one more live episode. It is still weird. Real weird. Also Jim breathes into the microphone a lot. Anyway if Barb ever wants to tell you any stories about her trip to Boston you can cut her off and tell her that you listened to this episode of the podcast. There really isn't much else she could tell you that we don't cover.

For a limited time Jim and Barb are both working from home in the same home in Boston. To celebrate this momentous occasion one of our favorite listeners, Camille, baked us 4 different brownies following very strict scientific processes so we could compare and contrast. We had Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Duncan Hines, and Camille's homemade recipe. We judged them based on look, smell, taste and texture. Do you think we could tell the difference and correctly identify which is which? Tune in to find out.

We forgot to record for a while and we didn’t get to a topic so we just decided to cut this episode as Life Updates. Unfortunately we had a slew of technical issues which meant we recorded way way too much audio and needed to edit this way down and it took a while to get what we wanted it out of it. Hopefully you enjoy it.

Barb went to Fantastic Fest for a dizzying number of days to watch a dizzying quantity of movies. Her biggest take away is that she's not as afraid of Horror movies as she thought she was so Jim digs deep into her psyche to try and figure out why if she likes some horror movies that she has let so much past emotional baggage get in the way of enjoying classic films. Jim also gives Barb some homework, and Barb doesn't like homework.

We knew that after recording our episode on Family Vacations that our parents would want to give their input on the stories that we attempted to tell so Barb went on location to record their live responses. People tell you to never go into show business with pets or kids but they never warn you against doing things with your own parents. The recording is a bit chaotic but we got what we needed to out of it.

What happens when Jim is in charge of editing and publishing an episode of the Podcast instead of Barb? Well it comes out pretty quickly after recording that's for sure. Barb started to wade into the murky waters of watching The Bachelor so we talk about why she made the choice and what lies ahead for her in this life changing decision. Apparently Bachelor in Paradise is a gateway drug because it hooked Barb very quickly and she's already a super-fan.

Nothing makes memories like smashing your family into a mini van and driving across several states to go see some old rocks or whatever. This week we challenge each other to remember some specific memories and also welcome our Niece and Nephew to share some of their memories as well. Mostly we agree that human memory is fallible and mostly what we think we remember is the stories about the trips that our parents repeated.
