From a faithful viewer (YouTube) and listener (podcast)
I’m not one to write iTunes reviews. This might be my first. It’s long overdue but deserved for Eric. I’ve watched many of his videos (catching up on the older ones) and listened to most of his podcasts. I really enjoy Eric’s way of speaking. Is he a professionally trained speaker, polished, and edited? Not sure but probably not. But that’s what makes his programs easy to view/listen to. It’s a refreshing change. Nothing pretentious. Down to earth. It comes through both in his videos and podcasts. Most times his videos are just himself and his elusive camera operator. His podcasts frequently include his salt-of-the-earth-type friends and guests who are quite interesting too. The length of his videos and podcasts are just right. His candor, ie mistakes are endearing. He’s just a normal guy sharing his experiences. Think of him as the neighbor you’d like to have next door or down the road. Got a problem - he’s probably knowledgeable on the solution or at least willing to roll up his sleeves and figure it out. He strikes me as the kind of person who would actually help out too. His programs are a How To smorgasbord! The content is appealing, and such a wide variety: bees, maple syrup, small engine repair, gardening, cold frames, seed collecting, pruning, clearing a clogged drain, and a bunch more. Reminds me of This Old House in a way but from a normal guy. I formerly lived in Brooklyn Heights (near his NY city residence) and now live in the Hudson Valley a short stones throw from the Connecticut border (not too far from his other residence). I can appreciate his experience from both areas. Listening to the podcasts are great for winding down at the end of the day. I’m grateful they contain no loud music, no long intros, and no membership drives. And thrilled he stays clear of politics and controversy. Oh, love the pups too.

The Gardenfork Radio podcast is by far and away the most entertaining podcast I listen to every week. Eric, Mike, Charlie and the others talk about everything from sweet corn to repairing the cord on power tools, and I think this is what makes this podcast so enjoyable: just "average...Read full review »
