{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Plumfield Moms","slug":"plumfieldmoms","podcastDescription":"We are sisters in Christ who became friends over a shared love of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, found especially in good and great books. Our primary vocation is that of marriage and motherhood, but we feel a secondary call, as educators and homeschool moms, to walk with families who are seeking to help form souls who are capable of responding to the vocation God has called them to. Our objective is to form our children and grandchildren to the best of our ability, and in so doing share what has been meaningful to us with others that it may encourage them and lighten their burden. As homeschoolers, classical educators and Christians, we have a passion for the ancient Greek paideia and the loving education of Louisa May Alcott‘s Plumfield (from her novel Little Men).","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/14312154/PlumfieldMomsLogo_skhzpw.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/14312154/PlumfieldMomsLogo_skhzpw_1200x628.jpg?s=48f6ea76ddece7e6e890ed85d4a7eb32&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://plumfieldmoms.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/plumfieldmoms/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-x5zkd-da62da?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":11,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-06:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-6,"text":"(GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/Chicago"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":413,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Plumfield Moms","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-x5zkd-da62da-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/plumfield-moms/id1626159983","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-x5zkd-da62da?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/1plEs7Quy4ZTf6Z9vvTH24","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/4f2268f7-7bfb-4b19-9e18-ac71c88b30f3","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null},{"name":"TuneIn + Alexa","link":"https://tunein.com/podcasts/Education-Podcasts/Plumfield-Moms-p1689027/","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/tunein.png","title":null},{"name":"iHeartRadio","link":"https://iheart.com/podcast/98196235","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/iHeartRadio.png","title":null},{"name":"PlayerFM","link":"https://player.fm/series/3361080","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/PlayerFM.png","title":null},{"name":"Listen Notes","link":"https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts/plumfield-moms-plumfield-moms-1JfWmhx5VTZ/#podcast","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/ListenNotes.png","title":null},{"name":"Podchaser","link":"https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/plumfield-moms-4755518","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/Podchaser.webp","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Tinos"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Tinos"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#A52B12"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/ig8tq9/Plumfield_Moms_Podcastad5d48c6-7282-5e5b-fd8c-3e7d17463eb0.jpg"},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"
