A Gentle Subversion with Dave Berlach

Dave Berlach is the co-founder/director of Bohemian Traders (along with his wife Emily). I first met Dave a few years back when he asked me to perform poetry at a gig he was hosting in his backyard. It was an amazing night. And a great introduction to this thoughtful, well-read, generous and philosophical guy. Over the last few years I've had the occasional privilege of sharing a beer with Dave. The conversation is always rich and varied and leaves me feeling inspired. These are the exact kind of conversations that made me want to podcast in the first place - when you have such a good chat with someone that you immediately wish a bunch of other people could have been part of it. So, here you go. A chat with Dave that you get to be part of. We talk about permaculture, the importance of story, the gift of critical thinking and a stack of other good stuff. And it ends with a poem that references surfing, Tim Winton and tomatoes.
