    Sorry about the name change. I think we have lost our sense of humor. Whatever your name I’ll be listening

      It was a cute name. Please reconsider your name change.

    It’s a pity your podcast name wasn’t taken in the spirit in which it must have been chosen. Excelsior, Mesdames.

    Piece on ticks had good reminders and I never thought @ using sticky lint rollers. Great idea. Thanks for giving me ammo re: bayberry hosting ticks. Hate ours and have recommended they be removed. You’ve given me yet another very good reason they don’t belong in our garden. As always an enjoyable and informative podcast.
