Irish Mike Smith’s Podcast Michael Smith

Wow has the Puget Sound real estate market changed in 6 months. Join me as Garrett Brown and I discuss what is new this winter and what we can expect in 2023!

Join me in this updated and rerelease of my discussion with Matthew Rudolph. We discuss the rise of Celtic Christianity throughout Ireland, the UK and the rest of Europe via prominent figure like Patrick of Ireland.

Today we welcome Lulu Redder of Feral Woman Farm in the Snoqualmie Valley. We discuss chicken husbandry, small scale farms, and why working and buying food from small farmers is better for everyone.

Today my guest is Kevin Finch, founder and executive director of Big Table, a non profit focused on the needs in the largest industry in the world, with the highest amount of need, the folks who work at restaurants.

We will discuss the genesis of the vision for Big Table as a former pastor and food writer and continue through the cities where Big Table operates currently, how to get involved and the uniqueness of the ”unexpected 20.”

You will love the energy and passion that drives Kevin as he shares his heart for those that cook for and serve us when we eat out.

Quote: ”To a guy with a hammer as his only tool, everything looks like a nail.”

On today’s podcast I have the honor of having James Lovell, director of development for the Chief Seattle Club in Seattle, WA as a guest. Not only has James been an advocate for the homeless, specifically in the Native American community, he has become a good friend. James also is a member of the Turtle Mountain Band reservation of the Chippewa nation near Belcourt, ND which is where my dad’s native side is from.

Today we discuss the Chippewa, or Ojibwe, the heritage, culture, artwork and travels of this great band of American Indians.

Join me as I kick off Season 2 with Garrett Brown, licensed Realtor in Washington state where we chat about the market in 2022 and into next year, how a seller would get ready to list their home, and a some personal stories about my time ”off” battling Covid.
