The Local-Cast

Joshua Nordstrom - Release the Kraken

Josh and I have been friends for over 30 years.  We were locker partners, house mates, and best friends.  One could say we've had parallel life experiences in that we've both carved out unique artistic explorations in the construction industry.  Josh's path started with mosaic tile work and that exploration has launched him into being one of the best in the industry.  Now he's taking his talents on the road and getting noticed globally for his endeavors.  Josh is a workaholic with a knack for the unique.  He's a family man and my best friend in the world and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to interview him.  I hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I did.  An instant classic only on The Local-Cast #6 

Kashyapa - Arogya

I was fortunate enough to sit down one on one with Arogya owner, Kashyapa to explore the world of Ayurvedic healing.  We dive into why this is an important form of healing for the body and mind.  We also discuss how Kashyapa got into this unique form of medicine and how he's built this company from the ground up.  Kashyapa is extremely knowledgeable in his field and is candid about the various aspects of his industry in this, the 4th episode of The Local-Cast.

Owen Lipstein ~ Blue Skys

Owen is my brother-in-law and was gracious enough to allow me a moment into his personal space.  We dig in and  tease out some aspects of his personality that reflect his character.  There's plenty of ribbing and an eire of humor to this wacky interview.  We discuss family, his business partner relationship with John Miller, and why he started Sante Fe Magazine on this third installment of The Local-Cast.  I hope you enjoy!
