0:00.0	Welcome to From the Front porch, a conversational podcast about books, small business, and life in the South.
0:08.0	Why was it so easy to believe bad things about what you thought you, and so much harder to believe good things about what you couldn't know for sure?
0:34.0	I'm Annie Jones, owner of the bookshelf, and independent books are in beautiful downtown Thomasville, Georgia, and this week we're spontaneously back chatting around the kids' table.
0:49.0	As you now know, one of our mangles for 2022 is to grow the show to 10,000 listeners, and right now we're a community of about 7 to 8,000, which is beyond what I could have imagined way back in 2014 when from the Front porch began.
1:03.0	The best way to grow the show, and by extension to grow the reach of our independent books through the bookshelf, is to have listeners leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
1:12.0	All you have to do is open up the podcast app on your phone, look for From the Front porch, scroll down until you see right a review, and tell us what you think.

2:07.0	So winter, spring, summer, fall, like the downward girls, and it's not fall yet.
2:14.0	But the episode topic I had picked for us to record this week.
2:19.0	I have now moved to it is going to be a topic for our live podcast that we're recording during the read or retreat.
2:27.0	This weekend and so that's what we're going to be doing for read or retreat weekend.
2:32.0	And also I had COVID.
