    Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 158 – Disputes Between Borders And Self Defense

    In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay go off on some wild tangents. There is an interesting side note to the famous trial that was held this month. Lawyers with YouTube channels have been doing live shows where they share their thoughts, as the trial happens. Is this a good idea? Are they armchair quarterbacks, or are they educating the public about our legal system? This follows with a conversation about international border disputes. Have you ever heard of the “Whiskey War” between Denmark and Canada? Hans Island is a prime example of how border disputes could (and maybe should) be handled. The American…

    Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 157 – Ramen Cake and Condition 1

    In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay go off on some wild tangents – no big surprise there, right?

It’s just weird, and we think you’ll enjoy the conversation. So, pull up a slice of Ramen Apple Pie, sit back, relax, and have fun with this eclectic episode of the Trampled…

    In Episode 151 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast: It was Independence Day in the USA! Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay tell us about how they spent their 4th of July, and who rediscovered how much fun it can be.

Information is easier to find than it has ever been. Is that information correct, though? How do we check it? Do we even care? Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay explore the topic with lots of references to Wikipedia, books, magazines, and even a video taken in France in 1899. In that video, modern Artificial Intelligence technology was used to colorize it, then bring it up to 60 fps. The…
