Capybaras, Gratitude, and Harry Chapin's Taxi.

Welcome back to another uplifting episode of the Rick’s Rambles Podcast, your weekly dose of good news, music stories, and quirky fun!

In this week’s episode: 🦫 We kick things off with some fun facts about one of the most lovable creatures on earth—the capybara! Learn why these social, gentle animals have captured hearts around the globe.

🙏 Our good news story is a special one—Rick reflects on another trip around the sun and dives into the power of gratitude. As he shares, “The more I have to be grateful for, the more I have to be grateful for.” It’s a heartfelt segment that just might change your perspective.

🎵 In our Story Behind the Song, we take a look at the classic track “Taxi” by Harry Chapin—how it was written, who it was about, and the impact it had on pop culture and storytelling in music.

📅 And of course, we wrap things up with this week’s fun, quirky special days you might want to celebrate.

✈️ Plus—a quick update! We’re just two weeks away from our exciting trip to Ireland. The podcast will be on a short break August 4 & 11, but Rick will be sharing updates and behind-the-scenes travel moments on all his social media channels, so stay tuned!
