Learning From Friends

My guest today comes not from my usual connection of friendships that I grew up with or have close contact with. This is a friend of my wife’s she met during college. We met a few times, and this is how I learned that I am a fan of what she does for a living. Kim works in the field of Historical preservation / architectural history. I look forward to learning more about such a fascinating field that I am thankful we have in this world because so much of our pasts would be forgotten without it.

In this episode, we discussf Nuclear Energy, both fission and fusion. At first glance, I know most of you are thinking, skip or nope, this episode is not for me. STOP that thought and listen because of how Matt talks with enthusiasm and understanding of the topic. In his previous episode, we spoke of general common forms of energy coal, natural gas, hydroelectric, and wind. In this episode, we solely focus on nuclear fusion an fission energy. We discuss Safety, Sustainability, Efficiency /  Cost (Conversion Efficiency, Operational  Costs),  Environmental Impacts, real estate,  and Consistency. Around the end of the episode, we discuss the nuclear disasters of Chernobyl and Fukushima and the avoided potential seven-mile island incident. I hope you found little bits of knowledge that open your mind.

This is an extraordinary holiday episode where we will be talking with my Father-In-Law, Ken about what Christmas has meant to him over the years. We discuss food, traditions home, mail, school, religion, music, weather, gifts,  and family history with the holiday season. It is incredible to hear the evolution that makes up my Christmas memories as I get to peek behind the curtain and listen to it from a place where I can understand and respect the things my wife's parents had done for her, along with what his parents had done for them. This reminds me of the importance of family during the holiday season and how lucky I am to have such a loving,  supportive family that has helped guide me on this journey. I hope you enjoy this in-depth conversation with my Father-In-Law, Ken. I encourage you this  Holiday season to ask those who helped raise you and learn more about  their lives and stories around this holiday season. Spread the cheer and spread the love. Most of all, I hope you have a very happy holiday season.

Let's continue with part 2 of the Great Mullinator. In this episode, we focus more on her time in the classroom, where we learn about how she handled teaching new students music and discipline, moving from teaching middle school to high school, the ins, and outs of marching band season, the importance of the band boosters, and ending off with some fan questions. Again this was such an impactful person in my music life that I cannot thank her enough for what she has done for me, along with 1,000+ students over the years.

The guest on the episode today has had a significant impact not just on my life but on thousands of others who came through the Teasley Middle School and Cherokee High School band / choral director program. She is the one and only Mrs. Pam Mullins. We will talk about her career and get a peek behind the curtains at what it was like to be a band / choral director.

It's been a fun year doing this podcast, and in this episode, I have the roles reversed on me where, I become the guest, and my first guest Chris Byess takes over as host to get the inside scoop on who Cade Curtis is and why Learning From Friends is the way it is.
