Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 179 – Show Me The Way To Go Home
In this fun-filled episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Mark Lindsay opens the discussion by talking about Doggerland. How much do we know about it, really? That brings forth the topic of human migration, Cheddar Man, and Mesolithic era mankind in the British isles. Next, Eloy Escagedo shares the history of his great uncle, who brought the first electrical service into his home town in Cuba. From there, the hosts branch off into several different topics that all seem to revolve around life in smaller towns, leaving us wondering if we can ever go home, or can home leave us, never to return. All in all, the Trampled Underfoot Podcast…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 177 – Copyright or Copywrong?
In this fun-filled episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, we start off the discussion with a trip to the grocery store. Eloy set out to buy a bottle of vegetable oil. Seems simple enough, right? How could this start any controversy? Let’s just say that pricing was an issue – and not in the way that you’re probably thinking. Totally switching gears, Mark Lindsay introduces a topic that was inspired by a recent YouTube video he watched (go figure, right?) The video featured a gentleman who plays classical music pieces on piano, and the score to that music is displayed on the screen as he plays it. As an April…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 175 – The Evolutionary Revolutionaries
In this episode of The Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay go way off the beaten path. What starts as a discussion about the most famous things that were invented in Florida and Oregon somehow morphs into the subject of James Randy debunking so-called psychics. If that isn’t an odd enough transition, Eloy introduces a video that documents a huge rail project in the UK. That’s innocent enough. But somehow, that winds its way into discussion about Neanderthals and the evolution of mankind. How the heck did they end up there? Who knows? There’s only one way to find out! So grab a beverage, sit back, and enjoy…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 173 – Every Sense of the Word
In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast Mark Lindsay is encouraged about the direction of music formats after a trip to his local big box retailer. The sudden appearance of some so-called “obsolete” goods were prominently displayed, which put a surprising amount of spring in his step for the rest of the day. This morphed into a discussion with Eloy Escagedo of our 5 senses, and everything we take for granted until they’re lost. There’s a lot to digest in this discussion, but we think you’ll find it palatable. There are a lot of digressions, segues, philosophical points, and just general rambling in this episode of the Trampled Underfoot…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 172 – D’yer Coffee Mak’er
In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast Mark Lindsay could not have his morning coffee as his coffee maker broke. So he set out to buy a new machine. On his journey to buy the new machine, he pondered the question of Planned Obsolescence. And we’re not talking about just coffee makers here. Look around! We’re surrounded by items that have a finite life to them. Do we get bang from our buck now-a-days? More and more, products seem to be going in this direction, and if not, companies are using proprietary parts that require you to go to them for a repair. There are a lot of questions…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 170 – Fungus on Rye
In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast Mark Lindsay goes introspective and personal. The hosts talk about making plans, superstitions, and premeditated disappointments. Why are we so superstitious? Do we really think that what color of socks we wear can have some sort of cosmic effect on the outcome of a football game? We certainly act as if we do. What can we do to stop worrying about things that are completely out of our control? Next, do we as a society really learn from history? It’s clear that we do in certain select things, but overall, are we really remembering the successes or failures of the past, or…
