Send us a textJoin us, Joshua and Craig, as we share our adventurous escapades, starting with an amusing critique of a distorted image layout and venturing into Joshua's recent trip to Venice, Italy. Hear the incredible story of an 86-year-old's human-powered amusement park and Craig’s exciting plans for his upcoming European trip. We also reflect on the "delays and upgrades" that come with packed travel schedules filled with geocaching, video creation, and amusement park thrills.Step back in time as we explore the enchanting world of Renaissance festivals. Craig's curiosity, shaped by American media, opens a window into why these fairs are so beloved in the United States. From the thrill of knife-throwing acts and medieval MMA fighting to the beautiful chaos of dressing up and blending in with elaborately costumed attendees, we dive into the sense of community and vibrant atmosphere these events offer. Tune in for our personal anecdotes, including moments of being mistaken for festival workers, and advice on making the most of your Renaissance fair experience.Support the showFacebookInstagramTwitterYoutube

Ted Fry is Raptor Archery and Raptor Archery is a reputable source for quality traditional archery gear. Ted's lifetime of outdoor experience fuels his passion to create traditional gear and teach others the joys we experience in the woods while carrying a bow. This long conversation is filled with life stories and discussions about the sport we love. It is one of my favorite podcasts.

Foundations of Amateur Radio The other day I was handed a sheaf of paper. The person handing it to me, an amateur, was insistent that I take custody of this little collection. I asked what it was that they intended for me to do with it and the response was that because I did things with history, I should do this too. Aside from taking on a new project, trying to juggle life and income, their observation was pretty spot on, even though I had never quite seen it in that way. Over the years I've often explained things in the context of the era in which it came into being, the first transatlantic telegraph cable in 1858, the first 20m contact between the UK and Australia, back in 1925, the founding of the IARU, also in 1925. For some years I've been playing with the idea of documenting the journey from Spark Gap to SDR. I started writing down milestones, collecting information about the various protagonists along the way, attempting to capture their life milestones and their radio related accomplishments. One friend went so far as to take photos of the replica spark gap transmitter in Hobart, Tasmania as used by Douglas Mawson between 1911 and 1914 during their Antarctic expedition. Between being entrusted with the written history of 28 Chapter of the Ten-Ten International Net and today I've started a spreadsheet. If you know me at all, you know that I love a good spreadsheet. This one is pretty simple, date, event, event type, protagonist, note and source. So far I've got about 85 rows. I'm using it to capture milestones directly related to our hobby, when the first EchoLink node went live, when RTTY came to be used on-air, the invention of FM, when we got access to the 2m band, when 160m was taken away during World War II, ultimately, all of it. There is already a website that documents some of this but it's USA centric, even though our community is global, and it does not include any sources, so there's no way to verify any of the events, which I think is essential if you're going to capture this in any meaningful way. I want this list I'm creating to include all manner of amateur related things, the first time F-troop went on-air, the first CQWW, perhaps even every CQWW. I have also set-up a form so you can contribute your events and over time grow it into something that captures what it is that we've done over the years. Perhaps it will grow into a section on Wikipedia, perhaps it will become its own thing, it's too early to tell. As I've said many times, if you didn't write it down, it didn't happen. So, this is me, or us, writing it down. Perhaps we'll be able to find a way to make it through the next 100 years. You can find the Amateur History Project under Projects on my home-page at vk6flab.com - I look forward to reading your contributions. So, thank you Christine, VK6ZLZ for pushing that sheaf of paper into my hands. I hope I'm worthy of the history that it represents. I'm Onno Vk6FLAB

Bad news keeps coming for craft beerA commenter online noted, "I thought they were the good guys," when discussing a recent round of massive layoffs at Tilray-owned breweries.  We did too.  Good guys or not, when breweries are owned by a huge corporation most (all?) of the emotional attachment is removed from ownership.  Where a family-owned brewery may push through tough times and try to keep people working, for better or worse, a large corporation has no interest in such tomfoolery.  Plus, when you merge several breweries you're definitely going to have some duplication of duties in the workforce.And with that said Tilray cleaned house at 10 Barrel, Sweetwater, and Terrapin.  No one was safe with Terrapin laying off brewery co-founder Spike Buckowski and President Dustin Watts.  The entire Innovation Brewing team at 10 Barrel was let go, and several salespeople across all three breweries.  This news always sucks, but this one hit us close to home with many of our friends impacted.In other news... Anderson Valley Brewing is for sale.  President and CEO Kevin McGee joined us in March (Beer Guys Radio Ep. 408) and everything seemed great then.  His plan was for the brewery to be a multi-generational venture. Looks like those plans have changed. The insane costs of attending an NFL gameAccording to data from bookies.com taking your family of 4 to an NFL game could cost you nearly $2,000 (including beers) if you're going to see the Lions.  Their numbers include the cheapest tickets, parking, food, sodas, and beer.  If you want a more affordable experience you better be a Jaguars fan.  See all the data here.We can't take much more over here, y'all.  We need some good news for beer.  Well, at least we have beer.Cheers!TimThanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!
