Life is all about connections and building community, join me for conversations with people I have met through life and my travels.
In November, Maggie and I spent a few weeks in Nebraska visiting friends and one beautiful day we got to enjoy the peace and warmth of Melissa’s new house. Between a wonderful Breakfast for lunch and some tasty baked good snacks we sat down with mics and a camera to record some listener questions. If you follow @down.bythe.river_podcast on Instagram you have probably already seen some reels from this time. If you haven’t yet go ahead and give that account a follow and take a peak at our hilarious facial expressions.
Well there was so much good content from that conversation that couldn’t be edited down into a 3 minute video that I decided to give you all a bonus extra episode this holiday season.
Please enjoy the holidays with your friends and family. Maggie, Melissa and I look forward to getting back together with you all in Spring of 2026 for season three.
Go ahead and give this podcast a follow and consider rating and reviewing. You can also follow along with Maggie and I as we jump back into travel in the new year by following @vanosaurandmaggie on instagram or tiktok.
