Hey, welcome to the house. Happy Rant.

Hey, welcome to the Happy Rant Podcast.

I am Ted Cluck joined as always in studio by my good friends, my partner in radio, Barnabas Piper and joins once a year in studio by my good friends and my partners in radio from Camp Barrico, a bunch of campers and another Camp Barricel staff

member. So let's clap it up for the camp you guys, clap it up for the happy rant.

We got a lot of energy in the room today, Pipe. It's just been magical up here and like all earnestness for a minute, I do love this place so much. I love Camp Barricau. It's way up here in the North Woods of Fairview, Michigan.

And we do high school camp for a week.

I get to speak twice a day.

This is just the greatest for me.

It's good for my soul, good for my person, good for my family, and just fun to be with

these people. So... Who comes to this camp? Is it like a bunch of different churches? Is it a church? Like how does what kind of camp are we were we discussing here

yeah dude it's a bunch of different churches and they're all kind of scattered about

Michigan but we get people really from all over like we have a camper from Florida we have some from

you know other states in the south there's a little bit of a Tennessee

connection and the other fun part is we get college students kind of from all

over to work at the camp and council and just

incredible high quality people shout out Paul Gardner who's the camp director at

Barracow kind of my hero he's on my Mount Rushmore of cool people

that if I could choose to spend time with anybody,

PG would be, he would be on there.

Just a great guy, walks place through the floor,

very humble.

I feel like that's, camp directors only go one of two ways.
