On the Front Porch not much is off limits. I tell stories about my experiences with depression, motherhood, writing, late-blooming queerness, grief, feminism, faith, and food. Would love to hear your own riffs about the topics!

My Next Electric

By Matt

We cover: Investing in and around energy storage; electric vehicles, especially smaller ones and going electric when it makes sense for you.

The future of the electric road trip starts here. My brother is changing the way we think about going electric, from incremental changes to big culture-wide shifts, and making it fun as hell.

The Blue Million Miles

By Connor Towne O'Neill

occasional essays from your old pal Con.

Man, I love The Blue Million Miles so much. It sort of updates a certain iconic short story by John Cheever, which is to say, sets it in Alabama. Thank you for allowing us to swim along on this trip with you, Connor!
