Just wanted to let you know I thought this was a great podcast. Some of your podcasts I stop listening after listening to the first minute or two. I found this one to be informative and the fact that you talked about some of your background and local setup of things, rather then just interviewing him was interesting. Keep it up.
I’ve been reading Mark and Anna’s blog for a year or so and I’ve learned a lot from them and I’ve enjoyed following their journey. It’s great to hear Mark on your show.
