Ana and Eric welcome Laura Palzkill direct from Phillips into the Cabin for a deep dive into Price County. Laura serves as Executive Director of the Phillips Area Chamber of Commerce and knows every nook and cranny of the county - and there are many! We began by giving the lay of the land in Price County, which is not only in the center of the state but also holds its highest natural point, the 1951.5-foot peak of Timms Hill near Ogema. The crew discuss some of the cities and towns in Price County, including Park Falls (the largest city with just under 2,500 residents) and the county seat, Phillips. Plenty of good places to eat, shop, and enjoy are available, but if you're looking for great resorts, plentiful lakes, and quiet getaways, you've got it! One quirky stop is Fred Smith's Concrete Park, a crazy collection of concrete in sculpture and design forms, often outfitted with colorful broken glass and other accouterments to turn concrete into horses, people, wagons, and other eye-catching concoctions. Laura discussed the numerous lakeside resorts in the area, the plentiful multi-use trails for any season, even some of the unique diners, supper clubs, and other stops to enjoy a meal of whet your whistle. Eric noted one of his favorite food trucks - Lola's Lunchbox - which is found in Price County either in Phillips or Park Falls. A swath of the Chequamegon National Forest covers the county, with trails that access some amazing hunting and fishing spots. Speaking of fishing, Price County is home to St. Croix Rods, a leading maker of fishing rods and equipment. They've been featured in Uniquely Wisconsin videos, along with legendary snow trail groomer Frank Dusek and award-winning barrel racing horseback rider Alexis Baratka, who was key to creating the Price County Rodeo - one that is rapidly becoming a leading one in the state and region. Price County offers many stories, and rides along U.S. 8, Highway 13, or Highway 70 can bring you not only to the county but to many of the hidden gems that keep people coming back. Speaking of, we also discuss some noteworthy events in Price County, including the beautiful fall colors getting ready to dazzle over the next few weeks. Along with that is the Christmas Tree Festival in Ogema coming up September 30th, the Phillips Fall Harvest Festival October 7th (to celebrate the cranberry production in Price County!), and Park Falls Fright Fest coming up October 28th. Other festivals include Phillips Winterfest in late January, June celebrations like Lumberman's Day in Catawba and the Czech-Slovak Fest in Phillips, and Phillips On Tap, held every August. You can find out more about Price County activities and events by checking out PhillipsWisconsin.net or ParkFalls.com.

Jillian caps it off with an official announcement on the next public art mural in Madison that will beunveiled on May 18th - listen for it!After, we went “behind the scenes” for a look at the new Discover Wisconsin Episode covering Carlsville.Ana, who produced the episode, describes the show and the adventures of Andrea Boehlke and hersisters as they explore some hidden gems – along with some of the better-known ones – in this littletown in Door County.

In this episode of theblerdgurl podcast, Karama talks to actress, writer, producer, Erika Alexander about her documentary "Good Trouble" and turning her indie comic Concrete Park into NFTs. The post Podcast: Erika Alexander has been doing A LOT since ‘Living Single' appeared first on theblerdgurl.
Erika Alexander is best known for her roles as Pam Tucker on the NBC sitcom The Cosby Show , and Maxine Shaw on the FOX sitcom Living Single . But in 2012, she co-created and co-wrote Concrete Park, a science-fiction graphic novel with Tony Puryear which the Lt. of Literature tries to explain in episode so Spoiler Warning!

We ventured out of the inner sanctums and into the outdoors! Well, to the streets, anyway....
Hashtag 59's Season 3 Podcast is 50 Episodes long and each episode will provide SIX outdoor adventures in each of the US's 50 states. We are doing these episodes in ABC Order of the states and episode forty-nine is Wisconsin.. The goal is to give you ideas and opportunities to experience outdoor adventure anywhere and everywhere in the United States of America. Here's our list for Wisconsin: 1. Visit Devil’s Lake State Park: The towering 500-foot bluffs surrounding Devil’s Lake – part of the ancient Baraboo Range – are estimated at 1.6 billion years old. Magnificent geological formations, including Devil’s Doorway and Balanced Rock, were created by water freezing and expanding in cracks in the rock. The Ice Age loop trail is a 13.7 mile trail along the entire park. 2. Bike the Elroy-Sparta State Trail: Wisconsin has the distinction of being home to the first rails-to-trails conversion in the country, the Elroy-Sparta State Trail. Aptly traveling through the Bicycling Capital of America, this bike trail includes three old rail tunnels, including one more than three-quarters of a mile long! This is a 32-mile route through five small towns in Wisconsin’s gorgeous Driftless Area. 3. Apostle Islands National Lakeshore: Hike the Lake Superior Ice Caves. Head out onto the frozen lake and follow the shoreline east about a half a mile to the first caves. The caves, arches, and ice formations extend a mile along the shoreline. 4. Hike the National Scenic Ice Age Trail extending from one end of Wisconsin to the other. 1,200 Miles Long 5. Take a hike to Timms Hill, Wisconsin's highest point at 1,951.51 feet. Visitors report finding the parking lot to be the toughest part! 6. Wander around Fred Smith’s Concrete Park. This 18 acre park features more than 200 folk art concrete sculptures decorated with bits of glass and other found objects. It's a quirky, unique spot in Wisconsin everyone should visit at least once. Thanks for listening to Season 3 of our podcast featuring all 50 US States and some of each state's unique and hopefully lesser known to you Outdoor Adventures. This episode featured the state of Wisconsin. Subscribe to our podcast if you enjoy what you hear and if you feel so inclined to leave a review we would be grateful.

Sommaren är i full gång för de flesta med grillande, badande och groggarnas glada tid. Detta har dock inte stoppat Comixpodden från att slänga ut avsnitt. Men nu är både Petter och Joakim trötta i behov av lite semester. Så i det sista avsnittet innan Comixpodden går på lite välförtjänt semester så pratar vi om följande: Vi spelar upp LITE material som gått under arbetsnamnet ”fyllepodden”, där vi får höra hur glad man blir av att få en seriebok på fyllan. Concrete Park 2 har lästs och det blir bara bättre och bättre. Joakim har hittat lite material som inte kom med på SIS avsnitten. Detta resulterade i en djupdykning i Malin Svedjeholms ”Plåstra” och David Liljemarks ”Bita i Röret”. Sedan vill vi på Comixpodden uppmanna samtliga lyssnare att njuta av sommaren och läsa så mycket serier som möjligt, så hörs vi när hösten börja dra in över landet igen. Avslutningsvis så bjuder vi ER lyssnare på en liten sommarpresent som kommer i slutet av programmet. GLAD SOMMAR!

Petter och Jocke snackar om nya Jönssonligan, Kim W Anderssons färska nyheter om Love Hurts, liknelser till GTA, slang och kartor i Concrete Park och William Odmans fanzine, framtidsplaner och arbetsprocess.
Our first 4-person riff, this episode goes to AMAZING depths of Hollywood culture, with Erika Alexander (of The Cosby Show and Living Single) and her husband Tony Puryear (screenwriter for Eraser, artist for Concrete Park). From discussions of so-called “black hollywood”, to double standards, to the history of various cultural milestones, and all sorts of riffin’ in between. It’s eye-opening, entertaining, and funny as hell.
