On this episode, AJ and Chris record from the great outdoors- live from the unofficial Truckbed Studios of the Bellingham Podcast. Yes, you read right- your two PNW loving technologists do a test run using a slightly different podcasting setup while recording on location. Chris gives the rundown of outdoor urban activities in Bham. AJ talks about taking a walk, without nosediving into your mobile device. And the two of them vent about minimalism and how they feel about the over connected nature humanity is having with that smartphone in your pocket.
Outdoor markets. Local merchants, food vendors, and live music, oh my!
