Why Are We Friends?

I have close to 2000 Facebook friends, the funny thing is I have no idea who 1398 of these friends are?Yes, they are friends in the digital sense… but is there more to it than that?So I am off on a journey to talk to these new digital friends and see if we could in fact be friends in the traditional sense, what is our connective tissue that brought us together on Facebook, what do we have in common, what do we disagree on and at the end of it all, should we in fact be friends….or unfriend!!Each Episode I talk to a new "friend" and ask "Why Are We Friends?"

Marketplace The Podcast- Hobbit Houses

February 18, 2021 • David- Rudi • Season 2 • Episode 8

His weakness is his uniqueness. Rudi from Colorado has been homeless, survived a civil war in Central America and disabled.

None of that has stopped him from reaching his goals…sharing his unique art and working towards a mindfulness that is a bright spot in dark times.

He used his creativity and imagination to escape the brutality of growing up in a civil war and grew that imagination to create something positive and unique for children and families to use and enjoy. Custom made Hobbit Houses.

How did Rudi start making Hobbit Houses and how did he manage to survive? If you’re in a bad mood this should change that… It’s Marketplace…The podcast.
