COOKIN' UP A STORY: Show Your Scars - Jeff Attlesey
When Jeff Attlesey was 27, he found he needed heart surgery and was presented with a choice. They could go through his chest or through his groin. For obvious reasons, he chose his chest. That left him with scars, ones that he wears proudly, which often causes him to go around in various states of undress.
Listen to Jeff discuss why he didn't retreat into victimhood and instead embraced nudity, why Martinez needs a second house for his boots, and why all the crew feels the way they do about jeans on this installment of Cookin' Up a Story. -
COOKIN' UP A STORY: Live Your Life - Jeff Attlesey
Jeff Attlesey was born with a rare medical condition, but neither he nor his parents let that stop him from living his life. He played in the dirt as a boy, raised hell as a teenager, and went to work as an adult. He also may have robbed a grocery store somewhere in there.
As an adult, his condition didn't improve and life added a number of other health conditions to his plate. That still didn't stop him from living. Listen to him tell his story as he Joe, Joe, and Rich discuss his upbringing, dirt bikes, robbery, and tuna patties on this episode. -
COOKIN' UP A STORY: Work Harder - Jake Latvala

That passion led him to buy a sawmill, which radically changed the trajectory of his career. There was one constant that had been with him since his early days driving a forklift in the Walmart distribution center in Redding, California, and that propelled his new venture to success. Jake was and is never afraid to work harder.

COOKIN' UP A STORY: Cuts and Burns - Jake Latvala
Growing up in Redding, California, Jake Latvala didn't have many goals beyond bonfires and keggers with his friends. After high school, he weighed his options and decided it was either the military or a job driving a forklift at a Walmart distribution center. He went with Walmart and ended up moving to Virginia and then Northwest Arkansas.
Given his lust for life, he got some cuts and burns along the way, though he always kept moving up. Listen to part 1 of Jake's story in this episode of Cookin' Up a Story.

Good radio from some guys that aren’t scared to speak as if you’re sitting around a campfire with them.
Common sense views and values that probably align with most Americans.

One of my go to weekly casts.
I have to say, as a long time listener, the idea of bicycle pulls with the hog sled finally has me reviewing, I would travel for that. I want that.
