The Sioux Empire Podcast

What’s up with this whole podcast thing?  That’s the question Robert Mehling and Natasha Estes seek to answer on this week’s episode with Write Now Podcast host and Forbes contributor Sarah Rhea Werner.  We also talk about finding your niche in the information firehose that is the internet.  Does modern technology convince us too often that we control everything in our lives?  Are stories the fundamental building block of human thought?  Listen to find out.  This week’s episode is brought to you by the Chaos Reigns podcast.  A podcast about independent filmmaking, acting, horror films, and whatever else strikes us. With Dominic Wieneke and Ari Show.  The Sioux Empire Podcast can’t wait to hear the first episode of Sarah Rhea Werner’s The Death Cast.

Howdy neighbor!  This week the Sioux Empire Podcast crew of Robert Mehling and Natasha Estes set out with Sarah Rhea Werner (Host of the Write Now Podcast and Forbes Contributor) explore what it is to be good neighbors.  Sioux Empire Podcast and Sarah Rhea Werner have officially learned that the best way to get along with your neighbors is to have dead neighbors.  Topics include:  Big Brother Mike Huether is watching you, or at least your lawn, and wants everyone to watch your lawn.  California boycotts South Dakota, South Dakota replies *shrug* meh. Robert makes an urgent plea to for people to be safe with fireworks no matter how cool messing with them looks on YouTube and does so by telling stories about how cool fireworks are… We cover the pros and cons to arming school staff.  And finally, we talk about neighbor etiquette in the 21st century.  This week’s episode is brought to you by the Chaos Reigns podcast.  A podcast about independent filmmaking, acting, horror films, and whatever else strikes us. With Dominic Wieneke and Ari Show.  The Sioux Empire Podcast is not nearly cool enough to have gotten locked in a graveyard while getting engaged.
