So Sez Rick

In this episode Laura and I tell a story together about how we met and fell in love. It takes two people to tell it!

Here are the last two chapters from my audiobook recording of Slice of Pie. Plus, for the first time, we have a guest on the show. I talk with film director, Tim Reischauer about what it was like to shoot the movie version of Slice of Pie.

Well, it’s time for the next chapter of Slice of Pie. If you didn’t catch chapters 1 and 2, you might want to take a few minutes and listen to Episode 11 first. FYI The conclusion of the story will be in episode 13.

This episode goes back to the archives. We share the first two chapters from Rick’s CD, Slice of Pie. The movie, Slice of Pie was based on the CD version.

In high school, I won an essay writing contest and got a trip to the state capital. If that wasn’t enough, I also ended up with a date to prom, a kiss while sitting on the bank of the Illinois River, and blue ribbon winning tomatoes.

In high school my buddies and I would hang out at the church youth center playing bumper pool, drinking soda, and getting crazy… at least we thought we were wild. Laura helps set the record straight in this episode.

I was working on my farm last week and have some sage advice about how to care for newborn calves. Plus, I get a little nostalgic about work boots. Yep, you heard me right, work boots.

This is a story from my one-man show, “Pigboy”. We’ve all had wise, sage people who’ve helped shape our lives. Sometimes that person is not a traditionally recognized source of philosophical advice. For me, it was the driver of the dead animal truck that came to our farm… yep, he’s a real guy.

This episode will introduce you to some of the basics of pig farming. My wife, Laura, is a city girl who will help clarify some of the more technical points of animal husbandry.

Nobody can really prepare you for the changes your body will experience as you age. You can trust me to give you the facts. I’ve played a doctor on TV.
