Episode 129: Alpacas, Fiber, And Winter Woodstoves

Under the Canopy

Wood heat hums, snowbanks rise, and the small rituals of winter living turn into hard-won wisdom: how to stretch a stack of deadwood, read a stove thermometer, and keep the creosote at bay. From there we pivot to what the cold teaches our bodies—aching wrists from repetitive work, the quiet power of a good adjustment, and the simple chemistry of vitamin D, hydration, and chaga for clearer mornings.Then the conversation opens into a warm, woolly world. We sit down with Donna, an experienced alpaca breeder from Campbellford, Ontario, to unpack how a small herd becomes a thriving fiber operation. She walks us through choosing bloodlines across Canada and the U.S., why Canadian winters grow longer staple lengths, and how hypoallergenic alpaca—softer than wool and similar to cashmere—keeps people warm without the itch. Annual shearing is a precision dance: eight minutes per animal, six to ten pounds of fleece, and a skirting table that separates blanket from seconds. Graded fiber finds its destiny—top grades spun into buttery yarns for scarves and hats, mid-grades into breathable, wicking socks, and coarser cuts into felted dryer balls, insoles, and rugged goods that last for seasons.Beyond the loom, Donna's farm invites people into the process: in-pen hand feeds with curious alpacas, guided treks on private trails, and calming yoga and picnics under the trees. Even the manure earns its place—a low-nitrogen, non-burning fertilizer that behaves like peat, perfect for houseplants and garden beds without introducing weeds. It's a full-circle model where land, animals, and community shape each other, proving sustainable fiber can be both luxurious and practical.If you're chasing real warmth and durability for winter, or just want to meet the animals behind your favorite socks, this one's for you. Subscribe, share this with a friend who lives in wool, and leave a review telling us which alpaca product you'd try first.

This is the podcast for alpaca people!Welcome to all of you, wherever you are listening, but especially my listeners from Brazil. Thank you. I appreciate it.Alpacas are curious and usually offer us a welcome as we approach. Depending on what we do next, the welcome remains, or our attention becomes unwelcome. Even too much staring at them and paying too much attention can cause them to retreat or at least change their body language. It is good to observe them and get to know each one individually.At this time in the UK it is good to check body condition scores - see the video below for detailshttps://youtu.be/xZSlhQaqGEk?si=TOJhjuEEqexcGDm3You might also want to check feet and eyes too.

This is the podcast for alpaca people!In this episode, I want to talk about how alpacas sit and why. Alpacas love to sit, which is called cushing. They gather their legs underneath them and look very comfortable. Often they will be chewing the cud while cushed. It is a bit like having a sit-down for a cup of tea – just alpaca style.Sometimes they do it to opt out – we all feel like that sometimes, I know.

It's a full-on cosmic horror double feature this week as we dive into Color Out of Space (2019) and The Endless (2017) — two movies where the universe is broken, time is meaningless, and Nicolas Cage might be your dad.We kick things off with Richard Stanley's goo-soaked nightmare Color Out of Space, where Nicolas Cage yells about alpacas, chugs space milk, and absolutely loses his marbles in a way only Nicolas Cage can. There's a meteor in the yard, purple lightning in the well, and a disturbing lack of child supervision. Bonus points for Joely Richardson slowly fusing with her son in the kitchen blender from hell. Oh, and Tommy Chong lives in the woods recording alien vibes on cassette like a stoner Fox Mulder.Then we head into The Endless (dir. Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead) — a movie where time loops are everywhere, everyone's in a cult (sorta), and reality is held together by what may or may not be a cosmic sadist in the sky. Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead star as brothers returning to their old cult campsite, only to discover that time is a circle, no one leaves the tent, and the beer is still free (so... not all bad?).Derick tries to unpack the cult's Netflix-worthy pitch. James compares The Entity to a hungover god watching YouTube fails. Josh wonders if the Cabin in the Woods dome tech is involved. Justin swears The Endless is a metaphor for aging millennials stuck in their hometown group chat.Mind-Melting Topics Include:Meteor goo and why alpacas are the first to go Why The Endless is It Follows for philosophy majors The rules of time loops and how badly we'd mess them upIs the color in Color Out of Space evil… or just lonely?“Stay out of the basement” energy from both moviesCosmic horror vs. existential dread: Who wore it better?    The Entity in The Endless: unknowable god or artsy Dungeon Master?WTF Highlights:Cage's fruit rant, rated 10/10 on the Cage Scale™Is The Endless secretly a flex about low-budget filmmaking that slaps?Would you join a UFO cult for free beer and campfires?

[VIDEO available on Spotify.] Imagine a vagina. You might be thinking of a passive tube, patiently waiting for a penis to shoot out sperm — and you wouldn't be alone. From Aristotle to Darwin, tons of prominent nerds classified males as the active sexual players: They're coercing, manipulating and harassing to reproduce, while the females are passive, coy, chaste. But animal ecologist Dr. Tiana Pirtle is here to give us the real story. Because once scientists started investigating what really goes on in the vaginas of the animal queendom, they realized that — far from being docile tubes — vaginas are packed with their own weaponry, tools and secret chambers. It turns out that both penises and vaginas were allowed to fight in the evolutionary arms race. Pirtle breaks open a box filled with animal vaginas to tell us all about it.   Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/ScienceVsWhenVaginasAttack In this episode, we cover: (00:00) A Box Full of Vaginas (02:42) The 'Chaste' Female is Born (06:51) The Duck Vagina that Launched a Thousand Ships (11:06) Hyenas and their Pseudo Penises (13:23) Water Striders and their Genital Shields (16:53) Snakes and their Two Vaginas?!  (20:28) Alpacas and their Regal Vaginas (25:31) The Rainbow of Vaginas This episode was produced by Wendy Zukerman with help from Michelle Dang, Rose Rimler, Meryl Horn, and Ekedi Fauster-Keeys.
