Our two favorite Wood Hounds, Dan and Joe discuss the coming spring and the realization that not all is great when warm weather returns.  It seems there is a delicate balance between working outside and avoiding sun exposure.

Dan and Joe spend the episode comparing and contrasting mail order firewood vs traditional delivery.  Hilarity ensues!

Dan and Joe wander from their scheduled topic to discuss some particular comments of their viewers.  These are always entertaining podcasts. Never boring!  

What does the future hold for the firewood industry?  Will it adjust to the changing wants and needs of the next generation of consumers?  Or will it keep firmly planted in the past operating with a two-cord minimum?  Dan and Joe both see a growing tempest and try to predict the future of the firewood industry. 

Dan and Joe discuss the  new TimberOX Summit log splitter that is now for sale and ready for purchase.  They both played a role in this new machine's creation and were both able to run the final product.  Their final verdict/?  It's AWESOME! 

Dan and Joe discuss a roadmap for a business to partner with a social media influence to help sell their product.   It pays to do your research and look for a compatible influencer.  But, we all know, if the product is pizza, look no further than the Wood Hounds!
