Florida Panthers To Rastafarian Adventures: A Raw Podcast with Yogi and the BeachMan
Get ready to kick back in Southwest Florida with Jim the Yogi and Rick the BeachMan—your favorite Michigan-to-Florida transplants! This episode’s a wild ride as these two "opposites-attract" cousings trade tales and tangents. Picture Rick marveling at a Florida panther prowling his neighbor’s yard, while Jim’s grooving to reggae beats and confessing to a rule-breaking Rastafarian reggae bash from his Navy days (banana leaf rolls, anyone?).
The real heart of this one, though, is their trip down memory lane with past guests who’ve lit up the mic. They reminisce about the dog food innovators who ditched the poison kibble and crafted nutritious grub packed with whole foods, the compassion queen who floored everyone by loving her would-be assassin, and the mushroom maestro healing folks with nature’s wildest remedies. These stories spark some fiery debates—Covid jabs, statins, and “white man diets” get the full Jim-and-Rick treatment. Expect laughs, jaw-drops, and a few head-scratchers as their zen-meets-beach energy bounces off each other. Will they skirt the occult or plunge into life’s big mysteries? Hit play for a witty, heartfelt romp that’ll leave you grinning and maybe a little wiser. This one’s a keeper—tune in!
