Hey everyone, welcome back to the Crushing Iron podcast. This is Mike. If you listen to our last

podcast, you will know that we put out sort of a cry to get participation going because we've

been, I think we've got about 33 episodes now,

and we're hoping to get more of your stories, more of your feedback,

more of your questions, and more of you involved in the podcast,

because we think that's really the only way that it's going to keep going

and be worthy in the long run.

And besides, we get much more out of it when people are engaged and sort of, you know,

prompting our passions and things like that.

So we asked for 10 emails to crushingiron at gmail.com with your story or your questions

or feedback, input, input ideas anything like that and

we said if we didn't get 10 we were going to do podcasts about our dogs called dogcasts

until we did get the 10 emails i can tell you that we definitely got some, and we're not that far away.

So welcome to your first dogcast, and Robbie isn't even here.

So I'm going to talk about my dog, Maddie, who is an unbelievably sweet dog who is scared of everything, including the dog door.

That it took me, I don't know, eight hours one day to put in,

and I got up and I stood there and I said, here you go, let's go, freedom is ahead.

And she will not go through it for the life of me, which kind of bumps me out because she has a

great yard and, you know, it's one of those things.

So she also, I am actually in Wisconsin right now, I'm at a

film festival where Saving Banksy, my film, just actually won best documentary feature. So that's

kind of cool. But anyway, I left her at home. She's at daycare. And I call it school. And it's really great
