An amazing listen for these days. Those stories and praise of Farmio were so good to hear especially some of the more lesser known ones like the paper helicopter. That highlight reel at the front evoked so many feelings and even chills as I feel like I heard some of those calls just yesterday. Great work all around and a very fitting tribute and sendoff to such a great guy.

Rest in Peace Ed.

Slowly catching up on podcasts and just listened to this episode. Excellent job giving a platform for some terrific Ed Farmer stories by the people who knew him. This is what shape a wake takes these days, so thanks for doing it.
