In this episode, Spanish professor David Martínez welcomes travel writer Rolf Potts into the studio to recount stories of risky adventures, unlikely friendships, and intercultural hospitality. The two give tips for new travelers and share their advice on how to be a good guests in a foreign place.

Rolf Potts is a travel writer, essayist, author of several books including Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel and Marco Polo Didn’t Go There: Stories and Revelations From One Decade as a Postmodern Travel Writer. He leads intensive courses at Paris Writing Workshops and hosts a podcast called Deviate with Rolf Potts.

David Martínez teaches Spanish and directs George Fox University’s Center for Study Abroad. He completed his PhD at the University of Georgia, where he focused his studies and wrote his dissertation on the representation of the Spanish transition to democracy (1969-1981). He is particularly interested in contemporary Spanish authors (Ignacio Martínez de Pisón, Rafael Reig, Marta Sanz, etc.) whose works aim at a demythification of the hegemonic narrative of the transition. He has presented his research at various conferences and venues across the United States.

What might a reckoning between Black and white Australia look like? Many of the brilliant contributors to Griffith Review 76, “Acts of Reckoning”, such as Professor Megan Davis, leading scholar Teela Reid and Senator Patrick Dodson, argue that it starts with all of us embracing the generous invitation from Indigenous people in the Uluru Statement From the Heart to walk together towards a better future, one that begins with a constitutionally enshrined Voice to Parliament, then moves towards Treaty and Truth-telling.

Others write powerfully about the need for fundamental changes to the criminal justice system which incarcerates so many young Indigenous people, and the importance of owning our violent past. In this conversation  Ashley Hay speaks with power and conviction of what we can all do to make change happen.

Acclaimed authors, Greenlight neighbors, and longtime friends Colette Brooks and Jennifer Egan (Manhattan Beach) joined us for a virtual conversation and launch for Colette’s newest book of nonfiction, Trapped in the Present Tense. In a lyrical and inventive blend of history, memoir, and visual essays, Brooks explores the mechanics and malleability of the collective American memory. Revisiting some of the more forgotten aspects of recent events in the American story to explain our challenging and often puzzling present—including televised assassinations, the Doomsday Clock, and obsessive diarists—Brooks refreshes the American narrative and “ruminates upon the past while reframing…our present perceptions of what matters most” (Booklist). Brooks and Egan held court and eschewed reminiscence for a clear-eyed talk on craft and “irresponsible research” that kept a steady gaze on “American darkness writ large” (Recorded January 17, 2021)

Whiting Award-winning author Amy Leach graces Greenlight’s virtual stage  to present The Everybody Ensemble, her newest collection of short, gloriously inventive essays that invite us to see and celebrate anew the “clattering, sometimes discordant but always welcoming chorus of glorious pandemonium” that is our world. In a discussion covering dragonflies, petunias, and encounters with beavers alongside questions of honesty and precision in writing and the comparative merits of research vs. experience, Leach and acclaimed author Eula Biss (Having and Being Had) concoct a potent and effervescent tonic for our times. (Recorded December 9, 2021)

Jordan and Brooke are joined by YouTuber and writer Maggie Mae Fish to discuss 1963's classic epic in all its homoerotic glory. The gang canonizes this as a tragic romance, expresses their deep love for Omar Sharif (rightfully so), examine the casting choices of this and recent desert film "Dune," and wax poetic about score, cinematography, and David Lean's directorial prowess.

Without a lot of fanfare in the early 1980s a fledgling cable channel called MTV launched in New Jersey. No one knew it at the time but it was the start of something big, a sea change in American society that would break the big traditional values of the 50s and 60s down into specialized, bite sized chunks ready to be gobbled up by enthusiasts, fanboys and hop heads for the next several decades. At the same time microbreweries were steadily growing in popularity from a niche interest into a national powerhouse that only continues to expand to this day. But does all this specialization just mean more fun for everybody? Or does it come at a cost?

Joining us on this episode are Theresa McCulla, curator of the American brewing history initiative at the National Museum of American History, and Alan Newman, co-founder of Magic Hat Brewing in Burlington, VT. We’re also joined by the one and only Colin Connor who’s nice enough to add a little pizzazz to the landmark 1995 essay “Bowling Alone” by Robert Putnam.

A statement from Henny:

"I had a conversation with my parents during lockdown about how children's imaginations and view on reality is so vastly different from the older generations, and how, why, when that innocence and magic disappears - It made me think about my own experience and at what point I figured out that my crazy ideas didn't align with the adult-universe. And so I figured I would write it all down, in hope that someday I would get to talk to others about it and see whether they felt the same way."
