| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Slow Home Podcast. This is the podcast all about how to live a slower, simpler life in a world that is kind of the opposite of that. My name is Brooke McCallory. This is episode 155. Welcome. And I'm Ben McCallory and welcome to a hostful. |
| 0:21.7 | Another hostful. |
| 0:26.1 | These are the episodes where we answer our audience questions. |
| 0:34.0 | And today we've got some, well, we've got five really, really different questions that I'm going to say we've never had before. |
| 0:35.3 | Yeah, I think you're right. I put the call out a while back on Facebook and you guys |
| 0:39.8 | keep bringing the questions. They are really unique and thoughtful questions. Yeah, I say it every time |

| 1:46.1 | your administration and bills and keeping all your budget balanced over time, which is why |
| 1:51.6 | Pocket Book is one of the best possible partners that we could have. And I'd say that money is |
