This is Free Talk Live. We're at Forkfest 2019 for day number four of this five-day decentralized libertarian camping festival in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and the beautiful Rogers Campground with just an amazing view.

We had Crosby, the owner of Rogers Campground on yesterday. And, you know, Mark, of course, we always have to talk to him about the mountains and the view here because it is incredible and it deserves repeating for listeners that may be new to the show that haven't heard us gush over Rogers Campground in this amazing location.

So it's Ian and Mark as normal, but also joining us today.

Roger Paxton, welcome. Good to be here. It's been a while. Good to have you back on Free Talk

Live. We would love you to be on more often, but you live far away. Two and a half hours to get to the studio. So yeah, that's a little bit of a drive, but I was doing it there for a while once about them every month. So you're here for

like your fourth time now

at this campground. I mean, tell me how much

you love Rogers this campground.

I mean, tell me how much you love Rogers Campground. I mean, it is one of the most beautiful places in the state. There's actually the only place that I've seen that has a better view than this. There's a house just right around the corner on Reed Road. It's this big pink house, but it has the most gorgeous view. But other than that, this is one of the, this is the second best view in the state that I've been to.

It's an amazing view.

Yeah.

It is. but it has the most gorgeous view. But other than that, this is the second best view in the state that I've been to.

It's an amazing view. Yeah. It is. And so I'm grateful to be here once again for Forkfest, which you can go to Forkfest. To learn more about that. I also want to talk about the Porcupine Freedom Festival, which is coming up starting on Tuesday. Yes. So as Forkfest ends, it ends right as Porkfest, the Porcupine Freedom Festival, begins.

And I got to say, you know, we started this on Thursday.

Of course, we were the first people here on, basically, on Thursday, kind of got everything

set up.

And there was just a handful of folks folks maybe a dozen or so or whatever on

Thursday night which is pretty typical for day one of Forkfest. Day two we definitely saw some

numbers come in cut it I would say it got us to about the same level of day two last year but then

yesterday day three I mean it blew up in a Saturday so everybody's off work and they can get in so yeah

but it blew up way bigger than it did last year. And this year we don't have Jay Noon's wedding that we can point to and be like, well, because of the wedding, you know, people coming in. Because Jay Noon, our co-host on Wednesday nights, last year he got married. And this year they're celebrating their first anniversary. I believe this morning? I think that's this morning or tomorrow morning.

I don't know the exact date. I think it's this morning.
