About The Burly Flow Podcast

If you’ve ever wondered what it might be like to live in a place where you pick up your cheese curds by the cash register, then the Burly Flow Podcast just might be for you. Or maybe you know what it’s like, but had to move away. Or you just don’t get to spend as much time there as you’d like. Then let the Burly Flow Podcast bring you a little closer to the things you miss. Every week, writer Eric Johnson (This Ain’t Provence) celebrates life in the Good Enough region of Wisconsin by bringing you another story from Burly Flow, the small town on the banks of the Mississippi River he’s returned to after 20 years away. Now he’s back and living in the local landmark known as The Eye — drinking coffee at the Prop Wash, beer at the Bilge Pump, and keeping busy doing the special brand of nothing his neighbors seem to have perfected.

Fathers and Sons

“So, tell me perr-fessor,” Leland Potter said, shifting over to the stool next to mine. “What’s the deal with this Hemingway guy?” “Big topic, Hemingway.” “It’s a long afternoon.” Leland calls me professor because he’s heard I worked at a university. Also, and probably more importantly, I’m not a local, so he presumes that if I’m not actually a professor, I’m at least smart enough to be one. That holds true for every outsider, by the way. Unless they’re from Iowa.

Empty Hanger

Part of our fascination with Nickel Ross' age came from the fact that he was even still around. Nobody crashes an airplane five times over the course of a life. At least nobody who makes it to 83. But that’s just what he did. Shot down twice in WWII. Busted a nose wheel in Korea. Clipped a wire during his crop dusting days out west. Then lost an engine on takeoff in the 80s “just to remember what it felt like.” Five crashes. Eighty-three years old.

Saturday Morning Rain

The rain had fallen most of the night and showed no signs of letting up now that it was morning, leaving us all a rainy Saturday to figure out what to do with. You know the kind of day I’m talking about. For some, it’s a movie day. For some, a go back to bed day. For others, it’s a clean out the closet and eat ice cream day. For just about everyone, it’s a stay at home if you can day … except me.

The Trouble with the Moon

“I figured the outing would provide a good balance,” Joey said. “A chance for me to take charge as well as be supportive. You know — the full spectrum of Joey Garnavillo in one dark night.” “Can you have a spectrum in the dark?” I asked. “Oh, you absolutely can’t,” he replied.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
