    Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 116 – Mark Unmasked

    This episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast defies description, so we’re not even going to try. An encounter in a Wally World parking lot left Mark Absolutely fuming.

Things switch over to a discussion about making money as a youth – everything from mowing lawns to getting that first job. Mark and Eloy then discuss the apparent lack of discipline in the…

    Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 87 – 20% French Dip

    Eloy is 20% French Dip? Yes. He figured it’s his birthday, it’s the end of the world, so why not indulge with some fast food? But he soon regretted it! In all fairness, its both Mark Lindsay’s and Eloy’s birthday this month. So what’s wrong with a little bit of overindulgence? That leads to the cast talking about age, wisdom, and life lessons learned. The duo then talk about current events, the pandemic to be more precise, and learning self sufficiency, independence, and simple skills like being able to cook for yourself – something that is sorely lacking these days, it would appear. We hope you’ll check it out! We…

    In this episode, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay share the fascinating tale of “The Lost Woman.” A lady who was stranded on an island totally alone in the middle of nowhere for 18 years. This is a great story and you will be amazed! They then get into a variety of interesting conversations, including recent migrations, Roman expansion into Europe, the 200 year Cantabrian Wars, and the historical yearning of people to be free from the yoke of tyranny. By the way, “the Romans never took Scotland.” If that is not enough of a great show, they then ask the question about how humans first decided to dig down for…
