Topics-business, guns, whiskey, current events, and any subject listeners want to hear. I intend to have a live podcast once a month with audience participation when I get Starlink. My existing internet is too weak for a live podcast. My goal is to have my audience feel they are sitting at the table with my guest and myself as a friend.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/13256098/larry-reidy-podcast-logo-2024_tq9yse.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/13256098/larry-reidy-podcast-logo-2024_tq9yse_1200x628.jpg?s=0e4eeaf994c7bcf11fad4b0f1742fe18&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://larryreidy.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/larryreidy/feed.xml","theme":"focuspod","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-jfiwq-ca45a2?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":16,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-05:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-5,"text":"(GMT-05:00) Indiana (East)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/Indiana/Indianapolis"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":388,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"larryreidy","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-jfiwq-ca45a2-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/larry-reidys-america/id1649990419","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"YouTube","link":"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC43DzVowQgJkSjo5LrXAZCA","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/youtube_logo.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-jfiwq-ca45a2?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/0ZdQ2xz5Bg42dMkxWikAj8","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/6bb17915-2b9c-4b8a-aaf5-fc4b26bf9e1b","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null},{"name":"iHeartRadio","link":"https://iheart.com/podcast/102154917","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/iHeartRadio.png","title":null},{"name":"PlayerFM","link":"https://player.fm/series/3395851","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/PlayerFM.png","title":null},{"name":"Podchaser","link":"https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/larry-reidys-america-4884596","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/Podchaser.webp","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Bookman"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Bookman"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#FF2C2C"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/u287sw/larry-reidy-podcast-logo-01.jpg"},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"
