Summary: A discussion of tinders — natural and artificial — and their relative effectiveness. No swiping required! ----more---- Subscribe: iTunes | Google Play | Android | TuneIn Radio | Stitcher | Anchor Podcast Topics Ken and Colin discuss tinders — that is, aids to fire-starting — both natural and artificial, with a particular eye toward which ones might work best when one is attempting to light them with flint and steel. Link of Note: The 10 Best Natural Tinders You Can Find In a Forest Shout-Outs We have a pair of shout-outs to offer this week. The first goes to Scouter Colin from the 264th Somerset-Bridlewood Scout Group in Calgary, Alberta. He posted a comment on the Facebook post for our most recent episode, noting that his group — sponsored, as it is, by the Rotary Club — has a Rotary Club badge on the back of its neckers. And our second shout-out goes to Norma, who pointed out that Beaver Scouts in Canada — might like Cub Scouts in the BSA — do actually have a common necker that they can wear, instead of their Group necker. This used to be a borderless, sky-blue fabric, but the current iteration is somewhat more tartan-like in colour, with a dark border.
