The No Fear Pioneer, Episode 2: Risk vs. Gambling

Is it officially a “podcast”, now that I have more than one episode?

Episode 2 of “The No Fear Pioneer” is up!

The distinction between risk and gambling, and the implications for those who stake their lives or fortunes on an inherently uncertain endeavor, are our topics. As with the pilot episode, I had a lot of fun thinking the ideas through and producing this one, and I hope you’ll enjoy the results!

Launch Day for “The No Fear Pioneer”!

I’m tremendously excited to be launching a brand new podcast today: “The No Fear Pioneer”. (Note the shiny new “Podcast” tab, above!)

The idea is to look at risk, opportunity, and freedom in the context of frontiers past, present, and future. What drives some people to seek the frontier life — to become pioneers? How has our frontier past shaped our present, and where can today’s pioneers find the challenging life of wide open spaces that they seek?

There are plenty of great podcasts out there, so I plan to keep this one short and sweet, with episodes limited to the 5-15 minute range.

You can listen on the podcast home page, which will have links to subscribe in iTunes and Stitcher as soon as my listings go live. I have exciting ideas in mind for future episodes, which will appear on the feed and the podcast page as I make time to produce them.

Hope you enjoy the first episode — I put my all into it, and had loads of fun producing it!
