Finally back from vacation, work should be calming down, wife graduated and is studying for boards, kids are out of school but should be good, SO I think life is FINALLY about to calm down about. So back to scheduling episodes of Fireside Feid. Who would YOU like to see on the podcast? Volunteers welcome as well.
Fireside Fedi show.
Fireside Fedi is a show where we sit down with folks that are a part of the Fediverse and get to know them. A relaxing chill time. Powered fully by Fediverse connected tech.
Let's stop yelling passed each other and let's put the social back into socialmedia.

I also apologize to @zzepposs@chaos.social for missing their incredible donation as well during the livestream the other day! We're still working on alerts for donations, so I totally missed it.
Thnak you SO much for supporting me, @BTFree and Fireside Fedi.
And to @evan@cosocial.ca , folks LOVED the mustache. So another vote for that. 😊
Thank you so much to @naj@posteo.de for the generous donation during the livestream on Wednesay. I completely missed and I really apologize. Hoping to get audio alerts and things set up someday!
Thank you so much Squirrel for supporting @BTFree and Fireside Fedi! <3
@firesidefedi Congratulations for the 90th! The people you have interviewed by now is awesome, but I'm having some trouble finding the full list, where is it?
I was thinking of suggesting a couple potential interviewees, but wanted to check first because I haven't listened to all of the episodes and maybe they've already been there... Seems like everybody's been there! 😁
Great job, man, really appreciate it.
@jandi@mastodon.social thank you so much!
You can find all the videos here: tubefree.org/c/firesidefedi/...
I have a playlist here, but I need to update it to include the latest folks: tubefree.org/my-library/vide...
If you're on Matrix, I have a matrix space folks recommend future guests. I also started a shared doc for folks to suggest people, though I haven't had anyone use it yet. Probably because I forgot about it. Lol.
Or just message here and @ the person so they know folks are interested as well and I'm not just soom random person asking. 😁
Really appreciate the kind words. It means more to me than just number go up. 😄 Started this to talk with folks, so it seriously means a lot to me.

@fbinin@mastodon.fbin.in feel free to shoot me an email and we can discuss it! I really enjoy talking and getting to know folks! 😊
@fbinin@mastodon.fbin.in Forgot to give you the email! 😁 firesidefedi@btfree.org or btfree@btfree.org
@FediTips @fbinin @ozoned @firesidefedi @timnitGebru @pluralistic
The interview was great fun.
@NorcalGma2@sfba.social @FediTips@social.growyourown.services
I am so glad you had fun! 😊 I enjoyed it so much. Thank you so much for all of the wonderfulnes you bring here. <3
@FediTips @fbinin @ozoned @firesidefedi @NorcalGma2 Wow, I had no idea that this existed. What a glorious pleasure. Well done to all involved, and thank you! (And a special hello to Summer.)
@baz@mastodon.scot @FediTips@social.growyourown.services
Thank you very much! I greatly appreciate it. I'm @ozoned and created the idea to just talk with folks. My community has helped me improve it tremendously though. And I'm just glad even 1 person finds it interesting. 😊 I started it just to get to know y'all. <3
@FediTips @ozoned @firesidefedi @timnitGebru @pluralistic @NorcalGma2
Perfect. I think I would like to get interviewed hopefully. 🙂
@fbinin@mastodon.fbin.in feel free to shoot me an email and we can discuss it! I really enjoy talking and getting to know folks! 😊
I don't know what their exact criteria are but I think they base it on who people nominate? Some of the interviewees are well-known people such as @timnitGebru and @pluralistic and some are developers of Fediverse projects, but most are simply members of the community that others enjoy hearing from.
I particularly enjoyed this episode about a retired dog owner @NorcalGma2 - https://tubefree.org/w/7HgS4JYMNv4xGZLb14v9hP 🙂
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services @fbinin@mastodon.fbin.in
@NorcalGma2@sfba.social is such a lovely person! Bringing positive energy and beauty to the Fediverse. <3
@FediTips @ozoned @firesidefedi
How do you get the audience and the people go do this? What is the criteria, approach?
@fbinin@mastodon.fbin.in @FediTips@social.growyourown.services
The criteria is that you're a person that would like to talk. 😊 And get to know others. Share a project, talk about your dog, whatever.
So it's been folks that I've found on the Fediverse, that I found interesting and asked. I've had MANY suggestions of people as well. I have to get back on my list actually. Life's been a bit hectic, but hoping to do more in the future. 😊

I've heard more than once that I put out a lot of shows. I do.
So just asking folks, which do you prefer?
More episodes to choose from.
Less shows, but you get th opportunity to enjoy each one.
