The Tinstreamer Podcast
Our podcast is like our logo. Simple and colorful with unique characters (check out those fonts). There are no life hacks here. The Tinstreamer Podcast is about folks living life on their own terms. Texas based outdoor adventure writer Brandon Weaver is your host. He interviews creators, artists, and innovators that have traded the nine to five for the FIVE to NINE. There’s no line between work and play for a Tinstreamer. They manifested their flow in life and flourish in the process of chasing down the unconventional dream. That’s why it’s Full Zen Ahead!

Outdoor adventure writer Brandon Weaver interviews his good friend and collaborator Jerod Foster. In this first episode of The Tinstreamer podcast, they chat about Taylor and Kelce, Wyman Meinzer (the state photographer of Texas), frozen orange juice concentrate, and the adventures they've worked on as a writer/photographer team.
Jerod Foster is a photographer, musician, and professor of practice at Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. He splits his time between Lubbock and Ruidoso, New Mexico where he owns The Happy Hiker, an outdoor store, with his wife Amanda and their three daughters - Eva, Lola, Emmy and their dog Max. Jerod is a good friend and one of the most genuine humans on the planet. Jerod and I have traveled many miles across, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado on magazine and web assignments adventuring on stand up paddle boards, bicycles, motorcycles and pickup trucks. I feel blessed I get to work with such an exceptional photographer and inspirational storyteller. Jerod embodies the spirit of what a Tinstreamer is. He works hard, takes time for others, drives lots of miles, and wakes up early. Everybody wants to be Jerod's friend, and I count myself incredibly fortunate that he is one of mine.

I'm your host for the Tinstreamer Podcast. I'm an outdoor adventure writer living in Texas with my wife Allison and our two rescue hounds Mr. Bojangles (Beagle) and Moondust (Basset Hound/Red Healer). On the show we will feature friends and colleagues, I've worked with and interesting people I've met on magazine assignments.
In the pilot episode, we feature photographer Jerod Foster. (He's a lot of other things too.) Jerod took this photo of me. It's in the Big Bend Region of Texas. This was toward the end of a journey we did on adventure motorcycles, across Texas from sea to summit for Texas Parks and Wildlife Magazine.
