Contact Scott from Bonsai MatsuBranch cutters are an essential tool when it comes to bonsai but they are commonly abused and misused. I love them and have them in a range of different sizes and shapes. I want to run through how I use them to get the best results. And the old saying of ‘Practice makes Perfect' isn't necessarily correct. It should be ‘Perfect Practise makes Perfect'. The apex on your bonsai can make or break your design and I have a few ‘guidelines' that may help. As I always say, these are not rules and your design is personal but hopefully it may help provide some clarity if your design is not quite what you want just yet.Support the showBecome a podcast supporter and show the Bonsai Love (it's really appreciated) ❤️https://www.buzzsprout.com/263290/supportWhere to find Bonsai Matsu:InstagramFacebookYouTube Web

We interview author Lloyd Mullins to discuss his historical fiction novel "A Rare and Dangerous Beast." We cover the basics of the story -- a young immigrant from Russia comes to the US via San Francisco in the mid-1800's, finding adventure in the old West from the Civil War to ranching to Native American family life to being a deputy sheriff. We also discuss his research methods, writing style, and some of his adventures in traveling the area in his pickup. It was a fun conversation. (No spoilers)

Big O talks Sasha Barkov
In Breaking Away, the Cutters have everything against them. Their bike barely works, their shoes are old and tattered, and only one of them can ride. But they still want to compete in the big race against the best and the brightest rich college kids. Something in us, something in me, feels an eternal ache to see the underdogs win. No one needs to tell us who they are, and we can see if we're watching the same movie. The Cutters are the team we want to win despite the enormous odds against them. They're riding in the race of their lives, fueled by a desire to prove they are just as good as the college kids. They're not just as good, they're better. Good writing can be boiled down to one simple principle: be hard on your protagonist because everyone reading or watching will be invested in that protagonist overcoming the obstacles and winning. That is the Hero's Journey, and it is the story, at least so far, of Donald Trump and his Basket of Deplorables. And now, as we head into the last day, I find myself on the edge of my seat, just as I was when I first saw Breaking Away. Will they actually win? Can I get that lucky to taste that kind of sweet relief? Rooting for the underdog can sometimes mean rooting for the loser, too, like in Rocky when an underdog fighter dares to dream big. Even if he doesn't win the fight, no one comes out of it thinking of Rocky as the loser. Or, as Google AI explains, “Rocky's personal victory comes from going the distance, making it through all 15 rounds of the fight. Rocky's performance demonstrates that he honors his family and friends and that you can't humiliate someone who doesn't want to be humiliated.”I can't think of a paragraph that better describes Trump, MAGA, and the three elections that made the empire sweat and rewrote the rules of how and who can run for the presidency. Hollywood doesn't make movies like Breaking Away or Rocky now. They don't see white men as having any obstacles because they're born with “white privilege,” and the only people worth focusing on are those people of color who are born into obstacles. These are the rules of equity Kamala Harris has lived by and believes. And the rules that might elect her leader of the free world. It's surreal watching the people with all the power sweat their last battle against Trump. They are the team that wants to win so badly they've become corrupt, relying on a propaganda press to coddle and protect Harris, as they try to cosplay making history.But if you're paying close attention and you're following the plot, you'll be able to see who the good guys are in this story and who the bad guys are. The bad guys use Harris as a shield, a symbol of virtue, to hide their own identities. They are mostly white men and women of enormous wealth who desperately need to appear virtuous lest the people rise up and challenge their power. I'm invested now. I want the right ending. I don't want to have to sit through the ending that wouldn't sell a single ticket. Sure, if Harris had gotten there on her own - if she'd fought hard through a tough primary and then ran for the presidency if all of that business with Joe Biden hadn't been so down and dirty, with everyone lying about what really happened even now, if her husband hadn't been accused of slapping a woman because of a jealous tantrum - maybe I could celebrate the first woman of color President of the United States.But the Democrats and the media have been gaslighting us for years now, though it's never been quite as bad as it's been this past year heading into their final battle.It's all so fake. It reminds me of what happened in the Oscar race when the rich white elites that run Hollywood decided they needed absolution and all were in agreement to start awarding people of color nominations and wins to make it seem as though things had really changed. But they hadn't. The same people run the show now as always. They are just wearing masks. The irony is that the real Hollywood movie is on the other side. That's where the good writing is. There has never been a hero like Trump, especially as we watched him survive their unprecedented attacks on him, from the demoralizing raid of Mar-a-Lago, to the lurid Stormy Daniels trial, to the Fani Willis debacle, to Leticia James and her idiotic charges against him.And all the while, the media played along, pretending like it was legit in hopes of rewriting the hero as the villain. Ah, but the people aren't that dumb. They know bad writing when they see it. I think of Steve Bannon, who helped unite people abandoned and invisible to our culture and government to give them a voice, something to fight for, to work toward, an American dream. He sought to build what he called “inclusive, participatory, nationalist populism,” and now his dream has been realized as the oligarchs bleed Black and Hispanic voters.These monsters threw Steve Bannon in jail not because of anything he did but because he said stuff they didn't like. He inspires people they see as human garbage. And I really don't want to watch the version of this story where all of them are rewarded for what they've done to working-class Americans who deserve so much better.I became a Trump supporter because I believed in this story. I believe in these people. Everyone on the Left is miserable. They've hollowed out their culture. They can't laugh at jokes. They've become humorless scolds. Yet, the Trump voters are not. Their happiness, their carefree spirit is infectious. Who wouldn't want to them to win?At the same time, the empire is the empire for a reason. They have built a system that is nearly impossible to defeat. This isn't Breaking Away. It isn't a matter of being the best bike rider on the track. This is deep corruption by people who have all the power and don't want to lose it. For most of my life, our government has been locked in a deep state, an establishment that is impossible to penetrate. People don't just come from the outside like Trump. They need institutional backing. A whole generation is now growing up with something I never had - a big, bold challenge to that power. Half the country doesn't see it. They're watching a different movie. A boring one. They have bought the lies of the media. They fear an outsider like Trump and his audacity to challenge the results of the 2020 election, with or without the riot. Ah, but that is democracy. What they represent is institutional power that they have decided doesn't belong to any of us. That is what Trump has challenged. And that is why they seek to destroy him. It's breathtaking to watch, at least to me. But then again, I'm a movie kid. I like this story. I want to see the underdog, the hero, prevail.We should prepare ourselves for a loss that isn't really a loss, like Rocky, despite the hideous people on the left — the bad guys — who will want to gloat and rub it in. Yeah, they will have won the same way they won in 2020 by pushing a fourth Obama term on the people, but no intelligent person will ever see it as fair. She has the entire legacy press propping her up, and Trump has them pushing him down and showing the worst of him day in and day out. What Trump has done, what Steve Bannon has done, and what all of the MAGA deplorables have done is nothing less than a revolution, one the people of this country desperately needed. They've built a foundation. They aren't going away. This is only the beginning.Why? Because they love this country. They're patriots. They know this country belongs to them — to us — as much as it does any American citizen. It was disgusting and unacceptable watching how the powerful shut them out of culture, the economy, social media, and politics. Who do they think they are? So, let's get this straight one last time. When you are born in America, you have rights given to you by God, not by the state. Those rights cannot be taken from you: free speech, the right to protest anything you want any time you want, and the right to equal protection under the law. I hope Trump wins in a landslide. They have it coming to them, and America would be so much better off. Hand the government back to the people because whatever they've built, it is no longer serving our needs.But if he doesn't, he will finally be able to take a well-deserved rest. He most certainly earned it. His place in history is secured. There will never be another like him. And to all of you I've been with for the past four years I've been writing on Substack, you have given me so much, taught me so much, and been so kind to me when almost everyone I knew threw me away like human garbage. It bothers me that Trump supporters continue to be verbally and physically abused just for wearing a red MAGA hat. Because I know you, and they don't. Like this man who recently beat up a Trump supporter:So here is me in my MAGA hat. My dark MAGA hat to tell you thank you and godspeed, MAGA. Godspeed. Trump2024.So let's have it, one last dance.
