You have a very well sorted F3! So much thought and miles go into your mods that you have done. Excellent work setting up the new bike so quickly after purchase. Freedom windshields are my go-to for all my bikes! Great job as always, Jody.
Thank you so much, Keith! Hope you are doing well! Probably pretty hot there, huh? It's only in the 70's today and cool nights...not too shabby here after that heat wave! I'm almost ready for my 5,000 mile review lol
Thank you so very much, Ray! Well, I think I'm just going to go with purple accents...I've already added purple crystals and black crystals...going to have to get it out of the garage tomorrow and into the sunshine to take some pics! 🙏💜🤗
Hello, Mike! How are you doing? We are doing ok, thank you! Back to riding and wind therapy! Are you riding much this summer? Thank you...I have started adding some bling and then I will get working on some purple accents. Have a great weekend! 💜🤗🙏🏼
I have been adding things to my 2023 F3 limited...she looks a lot like yours. I love mine. Love watching you. We plan on documenting our journey on our spyders as well
Awesome mods on your new F3! I agree with you about the Baja Ron swaybar, i also feel safer. I also added the fender lights for better visibility. BRP should offer those from the factory. Cheers PO3 and Torque TommyG!
Wow, you did a lot of mods! So I guess the LED lights started with the 2024 lines? I am switching to a modular helmet. My pop down sun visor broke and I have tape on my Cardo so it is time to bite the bullet and get a new helmet. Taking sips of water is another main reason to go modular. Tommy can tell you, if something is worth torquing, it is worth over torquing. I am really liking my Meguiars Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer polish to keep the plastic shiny. You can find it at Harbor Freight or any auto parts store. Your bike is looking good. I hope to meet you on the road someday. Thank you for the video!
Hello, Stan! Yes, LED's started on the 2024's with the F3L, but guess what? I noticed at the dealership, they took away the foglights on the 2024's...I don't think we should be subtracting lights...I'm glad to hear you are getting a new helmet! My first Shoei was a hand me down and I shouldn't have had it as long as I did...I believe our Neotec 2's are now 2 years old. Glad you found something to keep the shine shiny, lol! I have since added a few sparkles...I'll send you a few pics as I haven't answered your e-mail yet...been a wee bit busy here on the farm, lol. Hope you are having a great weekend!
Great mods , will be fantastic to ride. I have a similar set up on my ryker with the Elkas shocks and have the same lights on Yellow.. Can wait to see once its all set-up Alain & Yellow
Thank you! Hope you and Yellow have been riding a lot and enjoying the summer! I did not put the Elkas on the 2023, but have them on the 2018. Oh, if I only had a pocketful of cash to do all the mods, lol...Take care and have a great weekend! 💜🤗🙏
Absolutely, Bert! It was nice that I already knew from my last Spyder some of the things I definitely wanted on the new one. Hope all is well with you! 🤗💜🙏🏼
Now you know I told you I had a brand new Baja Ron still in the box I was going to give you! Happy you’re getting it all set up the way you like it. Looking good 😊
I know, RJ...I think you told me twice...so the first time, I forgot you had told me that. I installed it the first week of ownership...I'm sorry because I would have loved to have it. Remember, I've had a brain bleed, lol...I hope it can go to someone else who needs it! Thank you, friend! 💜💜💜
Chewie! Hope you get the chance someday...I still have to do an interview with TommyG...he has ridden the 2018 for almost 5,000 miles so he has a good idea of what Spydering is about, lol.
Thank you, Eddie! You know, I think that Torquey Tommy fella filed a police report about someone "stealing" stuff off of "his" Spyder...can you believe it???? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you! And yes, I am grateful for many blessings and each day I try to tell God just a few of the things for which I am grateful! Your wife sounds like a pretty smart cookie! 🙏🙏🤗🤗💜💜
Woo Ahhh ! New SpYder Mods ! You got my SpYdeY senses tingling Big time. Yeah, Bay Bee.Woo Hoo. 😮. I really like what you have done so far. I’m glad that you are getting rid of those 🤬hideous and cheap reflections. Excited to see future mods. NicelY Done. StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸💜💜💜💙💙💙.
Great video Jodi! And the bling you've added and plan on adding, is just the right amount I'd say. You mentioned the color of your Spyder as being "mineral blue," why didn't you choose "mineral purple?" 💜💜😎💜💜
Well, TC, no mineral purple lol...Some folks wrap or paint them...but I really like this color and plan on adding some purple accents...taking my time. Right now, I'm adding bling...🤗💜🙏😉
Thank you! Well, for riding purposes and handling, going to have to say the Baja Ron Sway Bar...but then again, that bottle holder is EXTREMELY handy on hot, hot days, so yeah...And for looks, I've added my bling, so I'll say bling for the best looking mod, lol! 😉😉😉
@@Grumpyoldman60- We were there in May and there could be another trip later this year. Not sure... Do you have any riding plans for the summer... any trips planned?
Thank you so much, Wendy! I may...once I get those fender lights on, I will definitely be more visible...when we were in Ohio, I looked down at night and couldn't get over how dark it was beside my feet! Do you have more lights on the back?
Thanks so much, Rusty! Hope you and the Mrs are out enjoying some fun rides! We are doing ok...lots of stuff to get caught up on here at home...two babies born in June (calves) and the last one needed a bit of help because he is a BIG boy and his mama is small...#farm life lol
@@BlakICE well, I stand corrected then! You may need them or you may think the BRP ones are warm enough...did you put on grip puppies? I think the thickness of those makes it harder to feel the warmth of the BRP ones.
I like what you have done, I also have the Lamonster Bottle Holder, the Hiway pegs, the Freedom Windshield (love it), the Baja Ron sway bar (make a big difference). I think I may have to look into those heated grips because you are right the stock ones are not so great. I knew you would keep what you had on your old one because the setup was great. Keep the shiny side up and will see you down the road! 👍😊
Thanks, Dan! Which size windshield did you end up with? Yes, the heated grips really help ...I can wear my summer gloves most of the riding season because of the heated grip wraps. Hope you are enjoying your summer! 💜🤗🙏🏼I've been adding the bling...hope to finish it tomorrow!
Well, no purple wrap for me, but I want to accent with some purple things...still thinking...but in the meantime I am sparkleizing my new ride, lol! 😁😁😁🤗🤗🤗💜💜💜

@@PurpleOnThree Hi, my back is doing much better! Recently, my husband and I did the Tobemorey Run(about 1000km) and I did quite well. The Butt Buffer certainly helps!
Well, the new one is coming along...I have added some bling so there's that lol. For now, the 2018 is in the garage...I gifted it to Mr TommyG and he has ridden it almost 5,000 miles already lol
Hello, my friend, Song! How is your week going? I'm going to text you in the next few days when I get a minute. Busy making hay and moving hay bales and berry picking, lol
Hmmmm. New SpYder Mods, sweet. I’m told, that once you have been bitten, by the Mods bug, that the initial bite, pretty much painless, but as time passes, the pain becomes more intense, and may take years to start fading away, but never really ever goes away. So, be sure that You chose wisely. With that being said, I’m anxious to see, what you come up with. StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸💜💜💜💙💙💙
Looking good. I agree about never having too many lights. It amazes me when I see guys with blacked out Harleys, no chrome, and then have bullet sized turn signals in back along with a tiny smoked out brake light...suicidal. We're looking forward to seeing you and Tommy G at VAMM next week.
in the ads now AI ad like the youth of today could be lazier lol NOW ON WITH THE SHOW!!!! great group of MODs can't wait to see the new fender lights installs, will make a good how to; video
Hello there, John! Hope you are doing well! Well, no lights yet, but I do have some bling, lol. Maybe this weekend for the lights, but...the brothers in law will be helping and there's a lot of "editing" when they're involved lol...so we shall see! I have no idea what you are talking about with the ads lol...😂😂😂 How's that gaden coming along?
Well.... There will be a video but there was no trade lol .. our bikes have too many miles on them. His Harley has 77,000 mi my old spyder now has 76,000 mi.... If you look closely you can see the Harley behind the 2018 spyder in this video...
Very nice mods Jody and you are right the more lights the better to be seen that is a very nice looking bike . they had a demo ride at Torque Motor Sports in Moncton NB yesterday Gail and I got to try a RT it was awesome couldn't believe the ride so smooth I took the coarse last year but we only got to ride them in a parking lot was nice to take it out on the road loved it and a Gail always said if I got a Spyder she wasn't riding with me but after the ride I think that may have changed things last night we was sitting on the deck she said have a look at this she was looking at the bikes for sale on her phone I knew when she got to go for a ride she would like it maybe next year I know I could sell my gold wing and trailer no problem but I can't let it go yet if I could win the lotto I could keep it and just buy the Spyder lol you guys have a great weekend take care say hi to Tommy G
Oh, Tom! This sounds like some wonderful news and something to look forward to! You know, when I made my mind up that I wanted a Spyder, I waited almost a whole year for the deal to come along on the used 2018. So I am thinking that Gail really liked it ...and who knows? A deal may come along that works out for you. So glad you both got to go on one of those demo rides. Can-Am knows exactly what they're doing when they offer these rides...yes sir! Hope you have a great week and I'll tell Mr. Tommy you said hello! 🤗💜🙏
Some cool mods. I like the GPS. I've been in spots before where service was lost to my phone and the map flaked out a little. We do have an old GPS we keep in the car for longer road trips. One for the bike might not be a bad idea.
Are you planning on selling the 2018, i want one soooo badly😫, i watch your vids just and love to imagine myself on one, i am physically limited and this mode of transportation would be a godsend for me, alao i love all of your mods and love your channel, ride safely and enjoy life
Thank you so much for all of your kind words! Many folks with physical disabilites are able to ride the Can-Ams...I do hope someday you won't have to imagine yourself on one because you will actually BE on one! Yes, most likely selling my 2018...did not trade it because of the high miles on it, but it has been serviced regularly and is in top notch condition! Take care! Thank you again for your sweet words! 🤗🤗🙏🙏💜💜
@PurpleOnThree thank you so much for sharing apart of your life with us,I'd love to purchase your 2018 spyder whenever you get ready to sell, i live in NC, but my daughter would have no problems traveling to pick this up for me, or i can have it delivered by freight, just let me know please
@@khadijahdavis1572 will do! If you want to send me your contact info via e-mail or FB or IG, that would be great. I do know that two of our neighbors have also expressed interest, so we shall see. My e-mail is jodyshawley@gmail.com. Thank you!
@PurpleOnThree if it will be easier and less of a hassle for you to sell to your neighbor than i completely understand, just want to assure you that i would have zero issues with transporting the bike should you decide to sell to me
@@PurpleOnThree not too much riding this month jody. I've been busy traveling with ministry. And family reunion weekend before last. So, we won't get a lot of riding in in July. BUT AUGUST IS COMING. 😂
Hello there, Mike! Sorry for the delay in answering...I am 5' 3.5 " and I can look over it...I really like that I can look over it. Tommy thinks he would prefer a 17 inch...I think windshields are so individualized...I may also add that I am short waisted and have average length legs. Hope this is helpful for you! @mikegreendale6936 and congrats on the 24 F3T!! 💜🙏🏼🤗
Congratulations, Rob!! 👏🎉💜 I got the sway bar from Lamonster Garage... It was not the deluxe sway bar just the regular one and it cost $298. My hubby and brothers-in-law installed it so no charge for that. My first sway bar on my 2018, Which is the same sway bar, I bought at Lamonster Garage and had it installed there as well. It cost $288 and $150 for labor back in September of 2021. Hope that information helps you. Best wishes on your new ride! 💜🎉 🤗
That would be the Lamonster Garage Ram Mount 2.0....comes with powder coated stainless steel plate, 1 inch ram ball, stainless mounting bolts with spacers...hope that helps!
Glad for you to have that nice newer bike. I have the same but 2018 as your older one... What do find are the main, noticeable DRIVING differences, between the 2018 and the 2023,??
Nice to hear from you and thank you. 🤗💜 I will have to say the 2023 is smoother in shifting.... RPM'S are less... better gas mileage...37 mpg vs 34 mpg. Suspension is softer... potholes feel better! 😉 Hope that helps answer your questions. 🤗💜
YES!!! I HAD some mods on my 2018...... but one day just like that...they ALL disappeared!! Now I know where they went!!! I now have OVER 4600 miles on my Spyder and I would like Purple to schedule an interview with me so I can talk about my Spyder...
I would love to see that interview. How is it, that have more than 1,000 miles on “ Your “ (?) SpYder then Purple has on her new SpYder? StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️😎🇺🇸💙💙💙( i can’t believe that i just said that to you. 👍
So happy that you are embracing being bitten by the SpYder. I know, that has to be a lot more fun, then wrestling and balancing, that Big ol’ beautiful HarleY, right ?😃. So, are you looking to add different Mods to “ your “, SpYder ? If so, what are thinking ? StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸💙💙💙.
Oh, it's because of the magic of youtube lol...I now am 100 miles away from 5,000 miles and Tommy has just a few hundred more on the 2018 because he had one extra trip if that makes sense! We haven't even recorded that interview yet...lots going on here at the farm!
You have a very well sorted F3! So much thought and miles go into your mods that you have done. Excellent work setting up the new bike so quickly after purchase. Freedom windshields are my go-to for all my bikes! Great job as always, Jody.
Thank you, Eric! Almost always practical those mods, except for the bling, lol...I'm going to wash the Spyder tomorrow and start adding blingo to her!
1:51 I love how you did your lettering in the shaded background. It was transparent really help make it pop nice
Thanks, Dean! I switched it from some other font...love all the choices! Hope you are having a great weekend! 💜🤗

@@PurpleOnThree Hi, my back is doing much better! Recently, my husband and I did the Tobemorey Run(about 1000km) and I did quite well. The Butt Buffer certainly helps!
Now it is complete. You rode quite a bit with the new one. I see that the 2018 is still in the garage. Do you plan to keep it?
Well, the new one is coming along...I have added some bling so there's that lol. For now, the 2018 is in the garage...I gifted it to Mr TommyG and he has ridden it almost 5,000 miles already lol
@@PurpleOnThree Aha, I see... I have to watch that video too... the day when he got it. :) Cheers.
Very nice..i see ya mate
Hello, my friend, Song! How is your week going? I'm going to text you in the next few days when I get a minute. Busy making hay and moving hay bales and berry picking, lol
Hmmmm. New SpYder Mods, sweet. I’m told, that once you have been bitten, by the Mods bug, that the initial bite, pretty much painless, but as time passes, the pain becomes more intense, and may take years to start fading away, but never really ever goes away. So, be sure that You chose wisely. With that being said, I’m anxious to see, what you come up with. StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸💜💜💜💙💙💙
Ahhh, yes, I must choose wisely and economically! I've been adding some bling! Wait until you see it!! 🤗💜🙏🏼
Congrats on the new Spyder and nice mods Jody 👍
Thank you so much, Roy! Are you going to VAMM? I think I asked you and you said no, but honestly, I can't remember, lol...🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
@@PurpleOnThree No not going to VAMM this year.
Looking good. I agree about never having too many lights. It amazes me when I see guys with blacked out Harleys, no chrome, and then have bullet sized turn signals in back along with a tiny smoked out brake light...suicidal. We're looking forward to seeing you and Tommy G at VAMM next week.
It was great seeing you both too! Looks like you are enjoying your new ride! 🙏💜🤗
in the ads now
AI ad like the youth of today could be lazier lol
NOW ON WITH THE SHOW!!!!
great group of MODs
can't wait to see the new fender lights installs, will make a good how to; video
Hello there, John! Hope you are doing well! Well, no lights yet, but I do have some bling, lol. Maybe this weekend for the lights, but...the brothers in law will be helping and there's a lot of "editing" when they're involved lol...so we shall see! I have no idea what you are talking about with the ads lol...😂😂😂 How's that gaden coming along?
Very nice mods! I think I'll finally be ordering the baja ron swaybars this week and get them installed before my longer trip in a few weeks.
Thank you, Kevin! Woo hoo! Did you get the swaybar? When do you leave for your trip? 🙏💜🤗
That matt paint cleaner is important for TommyG to have 😀
Uh huh...that fella hasn't washed her yet and I've had her two months already, just sayin'...lol😂😂😂
You've been very busy with the mods. I hope they have made for better riding.
Thank you, Roger! Well, the highway pegs, bottle holder, upgraded sway bar, and windshield are awesome!! 🙏🤗💜
Did Tommy G take over your old Spyder and trade his Harley in for your new one? 😎👍
Well.... There will be a video but there was no trade lol .. our bikes have too many miles on them. His Harley has 77,000 mi my old spyder now has 76,000 mi.... If you look closely you can see the Harley behind the 2018 spyder in this video...
Very cool Mods, Jody! 😊
Very nice mods Jody and you are right the more lights the better to be seen that is a very nice looking bike . they had a demo ride at Torque Motor Sports in Moncton NB yesterday Gail and I got to try a RT it was awesome couldn't believe the ride so smooth I took the coarse last year but we only got to ride them in a parking lot was nice to take it out on the road loved it and a Gail always said if I got a Spyder she wasn't riding with me but after the ride I think that may have changed things last night we was sitting on the deck she said have a look at this she was looking at the bikes for sale on her phone I knew when she got to go for a ride she would like it maybe next year I know I could sell my gold wing and trailer no problem but I can't let it go yet if I could win the lotto I could keep it and just buy the Spyder lol you guys have a great weekend take care say hi to Tommy G
Oh, Tom! This sounds like some wonderful news and something to look forward to! You know, when I made my mind up that I wanted a Spyder, I waited almost a whole year for the deal to come along on the used 2018. So I am thinking that Gail really liked it ...and who knows? A deal may come along that works out for you. So glad you both got to go on one of those demo rides. Can-Am knows exactly what they're doing when they offer these rides...yes sir! Hope you have a great week and I'll tell Mr. Tommy you said hello! 🤗💜🙏
Thank you so much, Xavier! 💜🤗🙏
Love the LED headlights, fabulous bike 😎
Thank you! 7,000 miles already... Gosh they add up quickly 😂
Some cool mods. I like the GPS. I've been in spots before where service was lost to my phone and the map flaked out a little. We do have an old GPS we keep in the car for longer road trips. One for the bike might not be a bad idea.
Thanks, Mike! Also, this GPS doesn't freeze like Tommy's phone does if it gets too hot and then he loses his google maps...
I have never heard of heated wraps, interesting. I have heated grips which are wonderful 😎
Very inexpensive too! Spyder Wayne put a set on his CF moto because it didn't have heated grips

Thank you so much, Charley! Appreciate you!! 🙏💜🤗
Are you planning on selling the 2018, i want one soooo badly😫, i watch your vids just and love to imagine myself on one, i am physically limited and this mode of transportation would be a godsend for me, alao i love all of your mods and love your channel, ride safely and enjoy life
Thank you so much for all of your kind words! Many folks with physical disabilites are able to ride the Can-Ams...I do hope someday you won't have to imagine yourself on one because you will actually BE on one! Yes, most likely selling my 2018...did not trade it because of the high miles on it, but it has been serviced regularly and is in top notch condition! Take care! Thank you again for your sweet words! 🤗🤗🙏🙏💜💜
@PurpleOnThree thank you so much for sharing apart of your life with us,I'd love to purchase your 2018 spyder whenever you get ready to sell, i live in NC, but my daughter would have no problems traveling to pick this up for me, or i can have it delivered by freight, just let me know please
@@khadijahdavis1572 will do! If you want to send me your contact info via e-mail or FB or IG, that would be great. I do know that two of our neighbors have also expressed interest, so we shall see. My e-mail is jodyshawley@gmail.com. Thank you!
@PurpleOnThree ok i most definitely will send you my info via email, again thank you for responding 😊
@PurpleOnThree if it will be easier and less of a hassle for you to sell to your neighbor than i completely understand, just want to assure you that i would have zero issues with transporting the bike should you decide to sell to me
EXCELLENT VIDEO JODY
Thank you so much, Sam! Hope you and Maxine are putting down some fun miles! 🙏🤗💜
@@PurpleOnThree not too much riding this month jody. I've been busy traveling with ministry. And family reunion weekend before last. So, we won't get a lot of riding in in July. BUT AUGUST IS COMING. 😂
Looking to the 15'' freedom windshield on my 24 f3T , may I ask how tall you are & if you look over it or through it . Thanks
Hello there, Mike! Sorry for the delay in answering...I am 5' 3.5 " and I can look over it...I really like that I can look over it. Tommy thinks he would prefer a 17 inch...I think windshields are so individualized...I may also add that I am short waisted and have average length legs. Hope this is helpful for you! @mikegreendale6936 and congrats on the 24 F3T!! 💜🙏🏼🤗
How much was the sway bar and how much did it cost to install it? I've got the exact same spyder as yours! I just bought it June 20th 2024!
Congratulations, Rob!! 👏🎉💜 I got the sway bar from Lamonster Garage... It was not the deluxe sway bar just the regular one and it cost $298. My hubby and brothers-in-law installed it so no charge for that. My first sway bar on my 2018, Which is the same sway bar, I bought at Lamonster Garage and had it installed there as well. It cost $288 and $150 for labor back in September of 2021. Hope that information helps you. Best wishes on your new ride! 💜🎉 🤗
What are you using to attach your gps to that middle area of your handle bars?
That would be the Lamonster Garage Ram Mount 2.0....comes with powder coated stainless steel plate, 1 inch ram ball, stainless mounting bolts with spacers...hope that helps!
@@PurpleOnThree it helps a lot. Thank you!
Glad for you to have that nice newer bike. I have the same but 2018 as your older one... What do find are the main, noticeable DRIVING differences, between the 2018 and the 2023,??
Nice to hear from you and thank you. 🤗💜 I will have to say the 2023 is smoother in shifting.... RPM'S are less... better gas mileage...37 mpg vs 34 mpg. Suspension is softer... potholes feel better! 😉 Hope that helps answer your questions. 🤗💜
@@PurpleOnThree Thanks,,, yes that helps
💜🤗
How's the windshield holding up?
5,000 miles and loving it! 🤗💜
Hi jody
Hello there, Dean! You did great on that livestream!
@@PurpleOnThree sure glad you stopped in. I wish I could’ve talk to you more.
@@PurpleOnThree oh and thank you. 🙏
@@MotoBaumVirginia glad I could stop in and you did just fine! It's hard to do the whole deal and keep up with everyone...yikes!
I’m diving in so I can get used to it. I sure love the live stream or yard stream I mean.
First
DFWMoose I tip my hat to you. First! Woo Hoo. NicelY Done. How are you doing these days ? How’s retirement treating You. ?😎🇺🇸👍
You know what Ricky Bobby says....😁😁😁
FIRST 😂
SpYderWaYne So, close to being first, but not close enough? However, that still deserves a “ Nod “, of respect? 🕷️😎🇺🇸🇨🇦
@@thegrumpyolgringo You must have been on a bathroom break ☺️👍
@thegrumpyolgringo If you sort by "Newest" ... 😁👍
@@SpyderWayne I’m pretty sure, I’ve already been knocked out of that position. 🥹. But i like the way you think. 😀🤓🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸🇨🇦
@@SpyderWayne Probably, I seem to be having few more of those bathroom breaks lately. 🙃🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸🇨🇦
YES!!! I HAD some mods on my 2018...... but one day just like that...they ALL disappeared!! Now I know where they went!!! I now have OVER 4600 miles on my Spyder and I would like Purple to schedule an interview with me so I can talk about my Spyder...
I would love to see that interview. How is it, that have more than 1,000 miles on “ Your “ (?) SpYder then Purple has on her new SpYder? StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️😎🇺🇸💙💙💙( i can’t believe that i just said that to you. 👍
So happy that you are embracing being bitten by the SpYder. I know, that has to be a lot more fun, then wrestling and balancing, that Big ol’ beautiful HarleY, right ?😃. So, are you looking to add different Mods to “ your “, SpYder ? If so, what are thinking ? StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun WaY. Keep on SpYdering. 🕸️🕷️😎🇺🇸💙💙💙.
Oh, it's because of the magic of youtube lol...I now am 100 miles away from 5,000 miles and Tommy has just a few hundred more on the 2018 because he had one extra trip if that makes sense! We haven't even recorded that interview yet...lots going on here at the farm!
stay tuned...film at 11, lol! 😁😅
