Saturday morning at Bahalla.
Coffee’s hot.
Shop heater’s humming.
I’m tightening screws and slowly assembling a small robot named Higgins, which feels like either a great idea or the beginning of a low-budget sci-fi movie.
We’ve got four podcast episodes up now.
Total runtime: 49 minutes.
Which is basically one cup of coffee and a small project.
If you’ve been meaning to listen, you can actually start at the beginning and finish the whole thing this morning:
The Philosophy of Boots → Holding the Fire at Chisasibi.
It’s less “podcast” and more “ride along.”
I’ll be in the shop all morning, checking in here between wire crimps and coffee refills. Reading comments and responding.
If you listen, tell me what you think the show’s really about.
Not the description... the theme.
Or just ask:
“What were you thinking?”
“Why didn’t you pack better?”
“Why are you building a robot before 9am?”
All fair questions.
I'll be here to answer until noon today.

Episode Four is live.
We drove 1,300 miles to the end of the road, nearly lost a wheel, questioned our life choices at a gas pump that looked older than disco…
and accidentally learned something about grace from a guy eating a jalapeño sausage like it was a medical procedure.
James Bay does that to you.
Coffee + headphones recommended.

We drove 1,300 miles north to the end of the road.
Past the last gas station.
Past cell service.
Past the place the map sort of shrugs and says “good luck.”
By nightfall we were sitting around a small fire on the shore of James Bay… wondering if we were about to be told to leave.
Instead, a man named Robert stepped out of the dark, smiled, and said:
“You can stay. This is your land too.”
This one isn’t about the miles.
It’s about what happens when the road ends… and people are still holding the fire.

- 29F (-34C) this morning at weather station Bahalla 🌡️. It was chilly shoveling out the propane tank, clearing the weather sensors and feeding the birds. Let's hear those temperature, frozen pipe and exploding tree reports! Even from our Aussie, tropical and Arctic friends!

At what point does something stop being equipment…
and start becoming part of how you move through the world?
Boots have a way of disappearing once they’re right... until they don’t.
And when they don’t, everything else suddenly matters more than it should.
I kept thinking about that while recording this one.
