The other night I stopped by Outrun The Fall band practice to catch up with Brandon, Ryan & Josh of the group.

We talked about recording with Jack Daniels at Sicktones, lyric video, possibly more new music and their big ol BBQ Bash Party! We also tackle some of the tough topics like favorite chicken strips place, crispy bacon vs chewy bacon and much more.

The other day I caught up with Author & Founder of The Gentle Barn Ellie Laks via Zoom. I had good time learning a little more of her story, and some of the history of The Gentle Barn. They have 3 locations in St.Louis, Nashville & Los Angeles. They gained some national attention in St.Louis when they rescued 6 cows that escaped a truck heading to slaughter. They raised the funds to buy their and gave the cows a home at The Gentle Barn. You can learn all about "The St.Louis 6" and meet on Sunday's when they are open to the public.

Visit http:"///www.TheGentleBarn.org today for more info and pick up a copy of Ellie's book MY GENTLE BARN. Follow along with The Gentle Barn on Facebook & Instagram!
