    That was a blast! Robert and Roger, well done. And this time around, Roger, I shut up completely and listened to YOUR story with full attention ;) Rock on.

    Congrats on Number 50, Roger. I thoroughly enjoyed the podcast on my walkabout today. You are a CGCA Essential!

    Roger,

    Thanks for sharing your story. It touched my heart to hear you honor your brother, and that he is part of why you play. You are awesome on both sides of the mic.

    Robert, you’re a natural, my friend. Well done and it was great to hear your voice.

    -Scott

    Roger, that was a wonderful sharing. It had everything – sadness, thoughtfulness, wise advice and humour in spades. I’ve only been in CGC for six months or so but it didn’t take long to find out that you are one of the giants of the community and now I fully understand why.

    Thank you Robert for a superb interview. You really drew so much out of this self-effacing man.

    Congrats on 50, Roger. Hope I’m around for the 100!

    Cheers,

    Les

    Congratulations on a fabulous, 50th Podcast, Roger! Thank you for all you do and for sharing more of your story. I can’t wait for another in-person bear hug! When I walked in to summer school the first time (2018) I was so nervous I thought I’d fall over. Then I recognized you and saw your t-shirt. After a hug, it was all good!

    Robert, great interview. Thanks for stepping in and interviewing “The Ambassador”.
    Peace,
    Judy

    Congratulations Roger on reaching an amazing milestone! Your enthusiasm and love for the community came through with every word. It was an honor and pleasure to serve as “Mini-Rog” for this event. Now I’m trying to convince him to do a podcast with me… GuiTAR Talk. Don’t pluck like my brother… don’t pluck like MY brother! But… I don’t think we’ll actually do it so don’t fret!!!

    Kudos, hombre!

      Robert…Lol, So it was not just me thinking this sounded so much like the fun the two brothers have on Car Talk :) Learning the fretboard with just the ‘5’ strings was indeed priceless. Congratulations Roger!
