Went to see this house a couple of years ago. Small but interesting house. Glad to hear you talk about it.

Wow, this is incredible. Thank you so much for including these images. I wasn't familiar with the podcast but came from the kitchen lighting video, and this was incredible. 💖😭💖 Thanks for sharing these stories.
