The permaculture podcast I’ve been waiting for

I have been listening to this podcast now for 5 hours straight and I had to stop long enough to write a review. Every episode I find myself sitting as close to my computer as I possibly can. The guests are very knowledgable and the interviews include a discussion on lessons learned from projects and experiences. Now if you will excuse me, I will get back to listening and you should listen too!
