    Tea, Tillers, and Tangerines: Starting a Garden in Michigan

    Mike and Nelson swap stories about spring gardening prep, Meyer lemon trees that winter indoors, and the art of surviving a 94-year-old's doctor's appointment. Along the way: women's collegiate bowling oddities, Hungary's election shakeup, untreatable viruses, and why mother's day weekend is a garden center madhouse.Key Takeaways:● Michigan clay soil needs serious amending with manure, sand, mulch, and garden soil before anything grows well● Lawn soil is a specific product designed to fill low spots and support new seed or sod● Meyer lemon, orange, and tangerine trees can survive Michigan winters if you move them indoors when it gets cold● Mother's day weekend is the traditional safe planting window in Michigan, but garden centers turn into madhouses, so shop the weekend before● Legal guardianship requires annual fiduciary reporting covering living arrangements, mental health, and physician orders● Mike is planning trips to Hungary in October and Costa Rica next March, skipping long-haul flights after getting sick post-Malaysia● A rising share of circulating viruses are reportedly untreatable, meaning you ride them out rather than medicate through themChapters:00:00 Tea Mishaps and Editor Inserts02:05 Nelson's First Michigan Garden04:07 Lawn Soil and Plumbing Repairs08:14 Meyer Lemons, Oranges, and Elvis the Tree Guy10:57 Finding a New Doctor at 9413:30 Women's Collegiate Bowling on ESPN16:45 Hungary's Election and Travel Plans19:30 Artemis, Moon Water, and Untreatable Viruses28:00 Guardianship Paperwork, Library Life, and Spring PlantingResources:● Fast Growing Trees (ask for Elvis): https://www.fastgrowingtrees.com● Mark Greaney, The Hard Line (Gray Man series #15): https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/745375/the-hard-line-by-mark-greaney/● Nick Petrie, The Wild One (Peter Ash series #5): https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/549470/the-wild-one-by-nick-petrie/● NASA Artemis Program: https://www.nasa.gov/humans-in-space/artemis/● ESPN (NCAA Women's Bowling Championship coverage): https://www.espn.com● Hungary 2026 election coverage: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/Connect:● Website: https://www.gomando.comGoManDo #PodcastLife #TravelPrep #LifeUpdates #EntrepreneurLife #GardeningTips #MichiganLife #MeyerLemons #SpringPlanting #TwoFriendsTalking

    Come Back from Sickness

    Mike and Nelson reunite after both being under the weather, diving into a wild story about artisanal pepperoni gone wrong and a week of relentless hiccups. From there, the conversation bounces through Hungary travel plans, fast food sticker shock, the Artemis 2 moon mission, March Madness, and why some women's sports captivate while others fall flat.Key Takeaways:● If you have persistent hiccups, it might not be a quirk. It could be GERD, and over-the-counter acid reducers can clear it up fast.● Recurring subscription charges add up quietly. Audit your credit card statements for services you forgot you signed up for.● Slowing down your travel itinerary and staying longer in fewer places beats rushing through a checklist of destinations.● Family restaurants like Bob Evans still offer real meals at reasonable prices, often half the cost of a fast food combo.● The Gray Man series by Mark Greaney and the Peter Ash series by Nick Petrie are solid picks for thriller readers looking for a long, satisfying run.Chapters:00:00 Coming Back From Sickness03:27 Hiccup Nightmares and Home Remedies07:13 Sneaky Recurring Charges08:45 Replanning the Hungary Trip12:20 Savannah Guthrie's Missing Mother17:14 March Madness and Women's Sports21:56 Fast Food Prices vs. Bob Evans25:22 Who Cares About Going to the Moon?28:57 Book Corner: Gray Man and Peter AshResources:● Bob Evans: www.bobevans.com● Culver's: www.culvers.com● Meijer: www.meijer.com● The Gray Man series by Mark Greaney: www.markgreaneybooks.com● Peter Ash series by Nick Petrie: www.nickpetrie.com● NASA Artemis 2 Mission: www.nasa.gov/artemis-ii● Lake Balaton, Hungary: www.balaton.hu● Audi Hungaria (Gyor Factory): www.audi.huConnect:● Podcast: GMD● Hosts: Mike and NelsonHashtags:#GMDPodcast #PodcastLife #CasualConversation #RealTalk #EverydayStories #GERD #HiccupRemedies #TravelPlanning #Hungary #Budapest #LakeBalaton #MarchMadness #FastFoodPrices #BobEvans #Artemis2 #GrayManSeries #WomensSports #FigureSkating #BookRecommendations #SubscriptionCharges
