Description

Rich and Marc are rarely the two smartest guys in any given room. This has never been more the case than when Chris Warfel stopped by to chat. In our interview with Mr. Warfel we discover what it takes to operate and maintain Sun Farm Oysters, Chris's oyster farm located on a secluded inlet off the Great Salt Pond. Turns out that the area is the perfect spot to raise some of the most delicious bivalves in New England. It's a labor of love with an emphasis on the word, "labor".Rich and Marc also talk to Chris about his time as a member of the Town Council. While sitting on the council Chris found himself at the center of a number of pressing island issues. He shares his thoughts about some of the challenges Block Island faces as we march boldly into an unknown future.

Rich Tretheway and Marc Scortino live on Block Island, a seven miles-long by three miles-wide rock thirteen miles off the southeastern tip of Rhode Island. Life can get...well...kind of interesting out there. The island is populated by a host of colorful and eccentric characters who coexist the best they can in extremely close quarters. When summer hits and the ferry boats roll in packed with tourists, chaos sometimes ensues. Tune in to find out how the inhabitants of Block Island deal with it...or not deal with it. *While the things we talk about on the podcast shouldn't offend too many people, some explicit language is used.
