Über diesen Podcast
Life's Tough. Be Tougher.
Join Mitch, a cranky old Texan from Austin, as he wonders his way through life, family, retirement, travel, history, culture, and the everyday challenges of modern life.
With equal parts common sense, curiosity, and tough love, Mitch brings listeners to the porch for honest conversations about what we've learned, what we've forgotten, and where we're headed next.
No talking heads. No outrage. No nonsense.
Just a guy who's lived a little and still wonders about the world.
New episodes every week.
