Podcast: Play in new window | Download
Welcome to episode 4 of The Hollow Tube Podcast, the podcast that answers the question of what if? Today, we discuss growing up in the desert, and how Patrick was able to create the intention of where and how he wanted to live before finding his dream home.
We also talk about riding the ferry, pods of orcas, and how relaxing it is to watch birds. This leads to a discussion about birds with hollow bones and bones in general. We discuss the importance of breathing, the secret of constants and variables, and a little bit about emergency tracheostomies.
We also talk about the Lakota healer Frank Fools Crow and everything related. He was one of the modern day fathers of the hollow tube hollow bone theory. Stay tuned for our fun and lively discussion.
