Live from Fiddle Hell Massachusetts, Andy chats with contemporary mandolinist Jacob Jolliff! From bluegrass to jazz, Andy and Jacob compare notes on their time at Berklee with John McGann, the evolution of their musical goals, the magic of listening, as well as the virtues of getting lost (in the groove)! If you ever wonder what it takes to shred, look no further! You, too, may find yourself wanting to extend the hang. 

In this episode, we hear the perspectives of three influential leaders from three different tribes: Jason Baldes (Eastern Shoshone), Lynnette Grey Bull (Northern Arapahoe & Hunkpapa Lakota), and Len Necefer (Navajo).

Each will offer their perspective on the through-line from past to present and into the future. We will notice that in many ways this line finds its way following efforts of education, coalition building, and healing.

We hope that after hearing this episode listeners will be inspired to get involved with indigenous issues in communities near where they live!

The controversial creation of Grand Teton National Park is in some ways the beginning of the culture that still dominates Jackson Hole today: outdoor recreation and aesthetic experience of nature.

In this episode, we ask: What is there to do when the same activities that allow people to enjoy the land are also leading to its degradation? How do we reconcile seemingly irreconcilable land uses? Should wealth equate to decision-making power in regards to environmental management? And how do we combat the tendency for cultures of leisure to become cultures of apathy?

We will cover the differences between conservation and preservation of land, the US Forest Service and National Park Service, how National Monuments are created and differ from National Parks, and the critical compromises made between the residents of Jackson, Wyoming and the US Federal Government that led to a very unique land management situation in Grand Teton National Park.

Howdy listeners! It's Wednesday night and so Impossible Coin has you covered. This week's topics cover a broad range. They include a series of fake weddings in order to get gifts, Aaron Burr hentai and gendering Pikachu costumes. Also there was a metric ton of Splatoon 2 talk. Hate was laid at the feet of mayo and anime was a mistake. Brian may have finally recommended a game that Tegan will be interested in and there is some discussion around Wal-Mart. It goes places you can expect but it gets there with styyyyyle.

Let the rivers run various colours with their ink! We take on the most hardcore of shooting in Splatoon 2, revisit the creative and lively world of Destiny in Destiny the Second and play another Professor Layton game!

All this AND MORE™!

Games discussed: Splatoon 2, SEUM: Speedrunners from hell, Destiny 2, Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles, Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy, Wolf Among Us 2, Super Fancy Pants, Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy, Noita. The Sims 4

Beyond being the chief curator and proprietor of YONDER, artist Linda Fahey spends much of her time in the shop's studio, making her own line of ceramics, all inspired by a life lived by the coast. At YONDER, her open studio is a space for exploration, innovation, and collaboration, where she welcomes customers, artists, and friends to pull up a seat at her worktable for conversations and creating. Her work is shown at respected shows in the Bay Area throughout the year, and is available nationwide through design-focused stores such as Anthropologie, Voyager, and Rare Device.

We will be talking with Cassandra Yonder about the pan death experience and some thoughts about how home funerals help with the grieving process. We will talk in particular about the concept of death midwifery.   READ MORE
