Gertrude the Gardener – Job Coach

Written by: Adele Field
Cast: Linda Lou Crosby (Interviewer), Adele Field (Gertrude), Coleen Robinson (Flamingo, Mrs. W.), Vincent Royer (Narrator)

In this episode, Gertrude the Gardener wears her other hat (figuratively speaking) as a job and resume coach, giving some tips for job interview success, including what to wear. Gertrude’s nonsensical take on the proper footwear — and what could go very wrong if you roller-skate into a job interview through a revolving door — has our Intrepid Interviewer struggling to keep her cool. And Gertrude’s  wearable, very muddy DIY spiked soil aerators are not exactly welcome in the recording studio. Or on her neighbor’s lawn.

With a shout-out to the Melstone Bar and Cafe, a real hometown diner, and a good place to eat.

Gertrude the Gardener – Deer Resistant Gardens

Written by: Adele Field
Cast: Adele Field (Gertrude), Linda Lou Crosby (Interviewer)

Listen as Gertrude the Green Thumb Gardener, make that Miss Gertrude, discusses deer-resistant plants such as squash and daffodils, and building a deer fence. Our Intrepid Interviewer tries to follow Miss Gertrude’s random zigzags and observations, admirably managing to glean a few actual gardening tips for her listeners about deer, backyard ponds, and using comfrey for fruit-tree guilds and green manure.
