A WALK IN THE PARK
How It All Started...
Ris and Babs have been friends for years. During one of those years, they discovered that their children's activities brought them to the same park at the same time. When a nice walking trail presented itself, Ris and Babs went for a walk. (You will learn that Babs hates exercise and walking was all part of a master plan to get ready to hike the Swiss Alps. Ris has always been in shape.)
Not surprisingly, Ris and Babs found themselves very entertaining, talking about everything from family to friends to politics to other "hot button" topics to their world philosophies and the island nation they one day aspire to rule.
That's right. There's an island nation. And, oh yes, unicorns.
Ris and Babs think they are hilarious, "ordinary" people who can entertain other ordinary people or extraordinary people.
On one walk, Ris said, "We should totally do a podcast." And here it is.
