In mid-May 2022, two years after my first podcast guest and I spoke about First Amendment issues for my online summer class, Dylan Roahrig, host of The Walter Paisley Movie House and I caught up to talk about issues like obscenity, cancel culture, separating the art from the artist, and other topics. If you want an even deeper dive, you might enjoy the first episode from August 2020, and you can check out some past episodes including the executive director of Earth Charter Indiana, Jim Poyser; the executive director of Gal's Guide Library, Dr. Leah Leach; and some of my ramblings from the height of COVID times.

Many years ago, Jim Poyser gave me my first opportunity to write for NUVO and we eventually became friends, frequently running into each other at arts events around Indy. In September 2013, he joined Earth Charter Indiana as Executive Director, and our paths crossed yet again. In this interview, recorded via Zoom in March 2021 as a guest speaker video for my First Amendment Law class for Summer 2021, we talk about First Amendment issues from his time working for alternative weekly newspapers, plus, what it's like starting and working on a new initiative for school-age journalists covering issues around climate change.

In early 2021, I recorded my thoughts during and after a couple of walks. I recently listened and decided to share the recordings with anyone who is interested. I mention current events, what was bothering me (and still bothering me) about living through a pandemic, and I touch on some of the ethical issues of what it's like to be a journalist and a lawyer in early 2021. I plan to do one or two more solo episodes pretty soon. Plus, a couple interviews for my First Amendment class might also be shared here as episodes.

An episode in which I share my experiences volunteering for Vote Safe Indiana (votesafeindiana.org), a non-partisan effort to help voters in Marion County. My efforts at a satellite early polling place were to help share vote times with voters at indyvotetimes.org.

While the main focus of the show will be interviews, every so often I'll post a solo episode of ramblings and recommendations. If you're not into it, no worries -- the episodes will be short and I'll be back to posting interviews in no time. Check out the first two interview episodes if you haven't already. In this episode, I talk about always feeling tired in these times, what it was like to be in a courtroom for an in-person hearing, seasonal yogurts at Aldi, and the importance of being flexible. Plus I share podcast recommendations (two conspiracy theory podcasts: "My Momma Told Me with Langston Kerman" and "Night Call"), what show I've been rewatching lately on Netflix, and why everyone should just get outside--before it gets cold again. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
