SMOKE RESPONSIBLY MY DUDES
Intro
Welcome back, it's been a while, but we're back together again. Consider this a test to weed out all the fair weather listeners- if you're still here, you passed the trial! There will be cake served at the end of this podcast for all. Now, I've been keeping busy as I'm sure you all have in your own subjectively protagonistic worlds. Everyone in my family and circle as far as I know, is doing pretty well, certainly nothing to report or to complain about. I trust and hope that wherever you are listening to this right now, you are well. Well enough anyway to take a little time to sit for a few moments with me while I tell you a couple of stories That I found interesting. Maybe join me for a puff, maybe don't. Both states of being are compatible with the vibe here on Baked and Awake. If you're listening here on Youtube, smash that like button, subscribe and share the channel, and be kind to each other in the comments section, where I hope to hear your thoughts on anything I talk about during this episode. Watch/listen till the end for me to really help my retention numbers and as a result, become more visible to new listeners through the all powerful algorithm. Algorithms? Is it one, or more? Nevermind but that might be foreshadowing…
First up today I want to more or less introduce a topic that I really was only ever dimly aware of- a technology semi lost to history, but from the not very distant past as I see it. That technology is something out of a steampunk novel or fantasy film, or so I kind of thought, until I stumbled on a video where else but on YouTube (love it or hate it YT has the most content anywhere- don't @ me). The subject I'm talking about is called Transport Gasifier technology. In short, cars, trucks, trains and boats/ships running on biomass fuels. Wood Powered vehicles. Coal, Charcoal, Wood Pellets, Even garbage (picturing the Doc stuffing rotten banana peels into the delorean's flux capacitor or whatever it was at the beginning?ending of Back to the future II before flying off into space time once again…)
-Gasifier Transport Technology
A treasure of a forum post about wood powered motorcycles
A hundred years of wood powered vehicles GenGaz Lagunov, Excellent YT Subject matter expert on Gasifier tech.
-My Side of the Mountain and the American Mythology Channel YT. Check out that channel and tell me "They lived in hollow trees" doesn't give you warm fuzzy feelings as you remember the first time you ever watched the "No Trees on Flat Earth" video… Comment your thoughts down below if you're listening on Youtube,
-Do already ubiquitous AI's like Chat GPT pose an existential threat? Should we experiment with it here on the Podcast? Hah, too late! Does all this eventually circle back around to our prior discussions about Deepfake videos?
-Side note: There was a Recent attack on US power Grid in OR, WA, and North Carolina
- What early episodes to remaster for better audio? Suggestions? I'm thinking about the Norb Theory and Mel's Hole, Possibly Maury Island to start..
-The Patreon is Dead, Long live Baked and Awake

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
