This week on Wait Five Minutes: The Floridian Podcast, I discuss the cost of living in Florida and how much people get paid. I also do the news and start a new segment about Florida's fauna. I get a little preachy near the end. Enjoy!Our theme song is Good Thoughts by Lobo Loco. Additional music this weeking include Indian Summer by Lobo Loco and Springtime by Lobo Loco. 

Included as well is Presidential Silver Lining (Live) by John Craigie from his album Opening For Steinbeck, produced by Zabriskie Point Records. I do not own the rights to any of the songs used in this episode.
