Sauna Talk is a show about the authentic sauna experience. Recorded (often) on the sauna bench, we talk with interesting guests about sauna including such aspects as building sauna, enjoying sauna, and health and wellness benefits to sauna. The rising sauna tide is lifting many boats and we look forward to some left turns that we hope to keep listeners on and off the more enjoyable and less trampled authentic sauna trail.

I couldn't be happier to share this inaugural episode of Sauna Talk.  We are joined on the bench today with Tom Rolando.  Tom is best known as Chief Operating Officer for Wisdom Adhesives.

During this episode we Sauna Talk about topics including:

  • How to manage 2,000 customers in your Iphone.  "Get with it, get on with the task."
  • The Iron Range:  218 natural history and culture.  Sauna is what you did.
  • International Falls:  Frostbite Falls.
  • Pooner:  Tom's father and example of "Do what you love, and you'll be great at it."
  • Daryl Lamppa and the Kuuma Stove.
  • The magic of Lake Superior.  "The body of water is like non other."
  • Building the Lake Superior Sauna.  

Tom's sauna build was the foundation for the Saunatimes' Build your own sauna ebook.   Documenting and focusing on the complete process, start to Finnish, about building your own sauna.

As we talk about Tom's sauna build we uncover how we talking sauna building in phases: I built from the hot room out.  Everything was a feel.  A number of phases, always a work in progress.
