Trufaux Sho: Gordon Rupe's Rants and Raves

Gordon Rupe's Rants and Raves

May 26, 2018

The Infamous Gordon Rupe gives us a little taste of his new work “Rants and Raves”. Plus, we get into some of his past, both in literary and literal forms. This was such a fun chat that I took some time off afterwards….should’ve posted it first though, I guess. Actually, what happened was the snow melted and suddenly there was a lot of real work to do around the “farm”. I was racing to get the edit done and post it before Libsyn’s cutoff time and coincidentally Gordon says that he quit podcasting when it became work. So, I took his advice and quit for a month. But, I’m not really a quitter as much as a procrastinator. To me, everything is in its place in space and time. And the show must go on. Enjoy the chat!
