BD-031 - Leap of Faith (Interview with Cliff Ravenscraft)
March 7, 2008
Cliff shares some great insight about how he turned a passion into reality.
Episode Length: 38:49
If you haven’t heard of Cliff, over two years ago he started a podcast about the ABC series Lost. Since then, the Weekly Lost Podcast has become one of the most popular fan podcasts. He’s produced hundreds of hours of podcasts covering popular television series (TV Talk, Grey’s Anatomy, Doctor Who), technology (Help I Got a Mac, Podcast Answer Man), life and family (My Crazy Life, The Full Time Mom), and more.
Cliff tells us how a hobby became a passion that he is now pursuing full-time, and how it has helped him strengthen his personal relationships with his wife and children. We also talk about getting out from under the shadow of parents as landlords and employers to realign those relationships in a more positive way.
I hope you enjoy this. Please be sure to check out the great shows at GSPN.tv.

I can’t tell you how encouraging this was for me to listen to Roland (and Cliff!). As another ex-pastor, Cliff’s Leap of faith reminds me of myself a little and reconnects me with the fact that business and calling can be (and are) identical for me. Thanks for this interview.
Loved your reference when listening to your wife - switching off the white noise in the head. You need to blog/feature write about that. We guys need to work hard on that one; it’s universal.
It was also helpful to chat through Cliff’s boudnaries between working dad and family guy. As you said, the homebased business-man can get cabin fever and get too close to family and it’s always helpful to hear other people’s means of making it work.
Thanks mate! Awesome stuff!
