Thank you!
Even though I get to watch re-runs for free on Sony tv plus, I am glad you all started a pod cast! Love it.
Awesome!
Thanks for doing this, really miss the show and hoping to see it again.
Glad You Both are Back!
I have been following the tiny house movement for almost 5 years. And I have watched a lot of your Tiny House Nation episodes on Roku channel, sometimes two or three times. I went to a tiny house festival in San Diego in 2022. I have also attended, on zoom, a couple of tiny house summits. I have been a member of the THIA for two years. So that I can get some experience, I have been living in my friends’ 200 square-foot tiny house that has no plumbing for the past 10 months. I’m so glad that you guys are back and I’m really excited how you’re using the podcast to talk with former clients from the show and how they’re doing now as well as bringing in some of your respected colleagues. I always learn some thing from both of you, and on my journey to having my own tiny house. And, you guys are a lot of fun and help educate about the tiny house movement. And I value Zacks role in the tiny house movement, and getting more cities to allow tiny houses. I can’t wait to hear your next episode…. Thank you!
