Everyone Get Baked!!!!

Johno Johno

I have broken my embarrassing six-month bloggy hiatus (self-imposed due to infant, my job, and my other job, plus the realization that nobody in the world gives a rats' red ass about my "learned" opinions on world affairs) to tell y'all this: I'm famous!

Or at least notable.

Ahhhh, hell with it. This week's edition of the Basic Brewing Radio podcast features a 40-minute interview with yours truly, expanding ya'll's consciousnesses on the topic of capturing, keeping, and working with wild yeast and wild yeast sourdough bread. The brewing connection to baking being, obviously, ancient and fundamental. And delicious.

I might be a fraud, but I'm a very convincing fraud. Download, listen, and learn.

Two early reactions: Your presentation style sounds more professional than the host's. "I'm not an expert at the micro-level", he (ed: "you") says, and then he (ed: "you") goes into an organic chemistry primer, right on down to micro-flora and the yeast evacuating their bowels, so to speak.

And you're telling me that all I have to do to make sourdough is to learn how to forget? That, I can do.

Gawd - is it just my computer (no, it's not), or are there really a lot of ticks and flaws in the audio stream? I'd developed a nasty twitch by the time I was halfway through.

I give a rat's red ass about your "learned" opinions. Maybe even two rat's red asses.

As soon as my kids take a nap, I'll give a listen. The Mrs. is in the recording studio for the new DMH album.

Ditto. Except for the whole "Mrs. in the recording studio" part. My wife's cool, but she's not that cool.

I'll give it a listen, while still awaiting your next exposition of learned opinion on world affairs.

Very cool. I listened, and learned that the last thing I need is yet another potentially expensive and time-consuming hobby. The time part being the time it takes to gain that depth of knowledge.

Oh, now that you've said something, there's glitches! And could i say "um" any more??

I didn't notice any problems with the stream when I narcissistically listened, so it's prolly just you, patton!

Ted - baking is CHEAP. $3 of flour and a couple bucks of gas or electricity and you've got maybe 9 pounds of bread! I mean, I know all our time is worth a lot, hour by hour, but the pleasure you get from raising and killing your own minions is immeasurable!

With all those rats' asses, I'm expecting something exotic, Mr. Zimmern.
