Today, we changed things up a little! Swagman wasn't really able to come on, but the amazing Steve Vanderheiden from 3 Wheel Bicycle was able to come for a chat...and what a chat it was!
We got into everything from the spark behind his artistic inspiration and vibrant street art to fascinating stories about Australian history and even the iconic moon landing!
We bounced around a whirlwind of topics—historical milestones, politics, personal triumphs, and creative expression—all with such energy and insight.
The chat was a wild ride through diverse subjects like art, social media craziness, vaping trends, healthcare quirks, politics, and those ever-present generational gaps.
We even got real about the ups and downs of podcasting and how technology is reshaping our world. Honestly, talking with Steve was not just inspiring but totally electric—I couldn’t be more excited to share this experience!
