Next, Catherine King and Wayne Adams call us from British Columbia to tell us about the self sufficient, floating island, called "Freedom Cove" , that they've created and live on.  Although our connection is rough, the interview is fascinating.  Hear all about why they chose this lifestyle, their artwork, and even bear attacks.  Check it out!

Victor Wooten makes me want to be better.  Either at bass guitar, or just to be better at life.  Reason being, Victor Wooten is an incredible person, regardless of his virtuoso bass skills.  This is one of those dream guests for Scott.  And well, it was well worth it.  From Bela Fleck to his insane solo projects, Victor is passionate about bass playing, teaching, and best of all, his upbringing and family.  I love every god damn second of this interview.
