E094 – Brandon and Candice Do Washington



Brandon & Candice took a multi-modal tour around Washington state’s Olympic Peninsula this summer; they share some stories about the journey.  We watch the TARC Bus Bike Rack Rap.

Also, The Sprocket Podcast launches its Indiegogo fundraising campaign to underwrite the next season of the show during a year with thin budgets.  We will be offering many personalized rewards to our backers!  See the details here!
