Title: The Passion of a Poet
Episode: P075
START: January 01, 2024
ENDS: January 14, 2024
Length:  33' mins
Host/Producer: Ingrid Rose

Poetry is the hinge between the artist, having that moment, and the reader or listener, having their own moment in the silence of the first breath, after a poem. A poem is a medium, that says, "here, have this" it can do this, because it is compact. Because it carries you, like a magic carpet, across meaning. Because its intent is fleeting.

"Advocacy through story: an interview with Michelle Poirier Brown".

Michelle Piorier Brown: writer, performer, playwright, photographer, and former federal treaty negotiator is a writer with a desire for clarity. What is going on? She asks us to consider.

She describes, You Might Be Sorry You Read This, as a poetic memoir. It distills five decades of living through extreme childhood trauma, learning to live with PTSD, discovering her Cree, Métis roots at age 38 and finding her way through this maze to the page.

Join Michelle and Ingrid Rose, in conversation about personal and public identity and the challenges and opportunities in writing difficult histories.

Michelle Poitier Brown is an internationally, published writer and performer, currently living on the traditional unseeded territory of the silax peoples, in Vernon, BC. She is nehiyaw-iskwew and a citizen of the Métis nation. Her debut book of poetry, You Might Be Sorry You Read This, was published in the Robert Kroetsch Series from the University of Alberta press in Spring, 2022. It was shortlisted for the Robert Kroetsch award for innovative poetry. In 2023, her chapbook book of poems and photographs, Intimacies, was published by Jack Pine press in 2023.

Interior design requires a passion and meticulous attention to detail. Having access to these professionals allows homeowners to rest easy knowing the design vision will be executed at the highest level. This episode dives into the visionary world of interior design, explaining its importance in the home remodeling process, as well as its place for navigating budget, timeline, and expectations. We also highlight the latest trends for kitchens and bathrooms, and how products have evolved over time.

When it comes to rolling up their sleeves and getting things done, ProSource Wholesale® trade professional members are some of the best in the business at a project design with precision. With the help of a remodeler, this discussion details the importance of hiring a trade pro, as well as the challenges (and solutions) faced when tackling a home remodel.

Working with a ProSource Wholesale® kitchen and bath designer can put a home remodel over the top. This discussion breaks down the importance of understanding the design vision, in order to create the perfect remodel. Also highlighted are how to bring forth the fun in more intricate kitchen and bath projects, and how a splash of color and the integration of technology are popular trends to consider.

Having a dedicated product and project expert from a project’s conception through its completion gives peace of mind and a partner for guidance through the home remodeling process. This episode highlights the ProSource Wholesale® account manager’s role in helping with a design, expectations, product selection, and timeline adjustments.

‘Memories of m children’s early years spill out in layers: I catch a glimpse of her first bib, speckled with polka dots and tomato sauce spillages too persistent to clean; here’s the dungarees they all wore for their early steps, wobbling like jack-in-the-boxes, mouths open with excitement and concentration, one shiny dribble at the corner. And so they emerge, year by year, each milestone a bounty of feelings and anticipation.’

Today’s episode tells the story of three things from our children’s childhood that are significant to me. 

Our discussion focusses on how we assign value to apparently insignificant (even ugly) things. Do they carry hidden symbols? Do they tell the story of our own identity at that specific point of time? What baggage do they carry?  

Though this is on the surface the story of a bag of things forgotten in a loft, the episode actually centres on rites of passage, shifting friendships and the mystery of life.

Today’s RECOMMENDATION is Flight Behaviour
by Barbara Kingsolver.

'Holding inside her the secret pattern for the carpet, she would weave each thread gently in and gently out, through hard wired vertical, thick weft thread, stopping from time to time to align them . Sometimes the shed stick, the wooden stick separating threads, would drop, the tension in the thread would be lost, and words would pass, or would they retrieve their work peacefully and resolutely?'
Welcome to episode 1 of series 4 - The Series of Things.
This new series is called: The Stories of Things and it aims to feature  stories of  those things that are meaningful in our lives – those things that we have kept, that we have carried with us from house to house, the things that we do not remove easily from our possession.

We would love for this series to be collaborative, and we invite you to bring your stories to the fold! 
Please share the stories of those things that are not just things on the website or in an Instagram message.

Can Waldo continue his win streak? Did we miss our calling as professional grifters? And WHO PROGRAMMED THIS GAME?! We kombat these questions and more as we watch Season 7, Episode 21 of Family Matters.

Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.
