Democracy may be one of the best things that humans have ever done, but what are our chances of keeping it? In today's episode we'll watch Plato go head-to-head with Norman Rockwell, analyze a graph, check in with Barbara Kingsolver and a Martian, and … learn what hope there is for our beleaguered democracies. This is episode two of our four-part series on democracy. I Heart This, everybody. I'm Ben Lord. Let's talk about what we love.

Today's episode looks at how each of us defines home and what makes up a home. My hope is that it will stir thought in all of us whether we are unhoused or housed, in a shelter or a rehab, on the streets or never experienced homelessness. We'll be looking at a variety of quotes including: "Don't try to drive the homeless into places we find suitable. Help them survive in places they find suitable." by Daniel Quinn and "Home is where the heart can laugh without shyness. Home is where the heart's tears can dry at their own pace." by Vernon Baker

Et si je vous disais qu'on vit actuellement un moment historique ? Un de ceux où les fondations de notre civilisation vacillent pour laisser place à de nouveaux récits, de nouvelles croyances...Dans cet épisode, j'ai le plaisir d'accueillir Charles Puybasset, fondateur de We Are One et de La Fresque des Civilisations. Charles nous emmène au cœur d'une idée fascinante : tous les 550 ans, les civilisations s'effondrent pour mieux renaître, et les crises actuelles – climatique, sociale, économique – sont les signes avant-coureurs de cette transformation profonde.Ensemble, nous explorons :Pourquoi notre monde actuel s'effondre et ce qui pourrait émerger à sa place.L'importance des récits collectifs pour bâtir une société plus juste et connectée.Les défis entrepreneuriaux et personnels de Charles dans la construction d'un futur porteur de sens.

Ever wondered if our technological advancements are truly making life better or just more complicated? Join Alex of the Human Nature Odyssey podcast and me as we kickstart our return with a whirlwind of reflections beginning with our reminiscing about the hands-on expertise of past generations ... contrasting true ability with the digital era.The metaphor of the Tower of Babel serves as a philosophical lens through which we examine civilization's complexities and our relationship with technology. Are we building a society without understanding its true purpose, and how does this impact our local engagements? Alex and I also reimagine classic narratives, pondering if true heroism lies not in saving the world, but in developing a reciprocal relationship with nature and ourselves. This is a candid exploration of humanity's environmental role, challenging the notion that we're merely defenders of a world in peril.Inspired by Daniel Quinn's “Ishmael,” our conversation turns to humanity's impact on Earth, from ancient health paradigms to modern civilization's paradoxes. The conversation dives into embracing diverse worldviews, especially indigenous perspectives, and exploring the cultural narratives shaping our interactions with nature.Pre-Order my novel, The Plain of Pillars HERE.Learn more about Alex and his podcast HERE.

Presented by Daniel Quinn.

On this week's program, your host, Justin Mog, puts on his overalls for a chat with Purdue University professor of agronomy, Laura Bowling. Laura is the hydrologist working in collaboration with others at Purdue's Agronomy Center for Research and Education (ACRE) (https://ag.purdue.edu/department/agry/acre/index.html). The team is addressing an issue that Midwestern farmers are increasingly facing with climate chaos: drought tolerance. Adequate rainfall has spared most of the Midwest from drought conditions (https://www.drought.gov/) so far this summer. However, in the future, farmers must be prepared, placing an importance on tools that manage dry periods throughout the growing season. Purdue's Drainage Water Recycling project (https://transformingdrainage.org/), based at (ACRE), works to capture drainage water to prevent downstream flow and redirect it back to fields during drier conditions later in the growing season. Through drip irrigation–lines that run directly beneath crop rows–water and fertilizers are placed precisely as needed. Laura Bowling, professor of agronomy, estimates that the program will reduce nitrate going downstream by 30-40%. While Shaun Casteel, professor of agronomy, notes that soybean production has increased around four to six bushels since the project's beginning. This collaboration has resulted in major developments for the reutilization of runoff, the moisture stability of corn and an increase in crop production. The Purdue team, Bowling, Casteel, Daniel Quinn (assistant professor of agronomy specializing in corn production), Keith Cherkauer (direct of the Indiana Water Resource Research Center and professor of agricultural and biological engineering) and Juan Sesmero (professor of agricultural economics) is continuing to refine their system to maximize the water recycling and nutrient supply, as well as benefit Midwestern farmers throughout drought seasons. For more information, please view Purdue College of Agriculture's story: https://ag.purdue.edu/news/2024/06/maximizing-midwest-drought-resilience-through-sustainable-solutions.html As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!

I first learned about animism in the book The Story of B by Daniel Quinn. While the term animism was initially invented by anthropologists as a way of classifying place-based, indigenous religions the world over, it has taken on a much deeper and expansive meaning in recent years. In many ways it transcends the notion of religion or spirituality to more of an ecological ethos encoded in stories, to shape a person's perception of the environment in terms of reciprocity. For this reason, animism is a prevalent way of perceiving and engaging with the world in the rewilding movement. Through animism, we can once more find belonging to people and place, and align ourselves with the cycles and systems of the ecologies where we dwell. Here to discuss the topic of animism with me today, is Rune Hjarnø Rasmussen. Rune is an historian of religion, Ph.d., educated from the Universities of Uppsala and Copenhagen. Rune has lived in many countries and done fieldwork in a number of contemporary (primarily Afro-descendant)  religions, but since childhood he has had Nordic religion as a strong field of interest. Today Rune is working on applying contemporary developments in anthropology to rethink the way we address Nordic religion both in terms of scholarship, but also as a reservoir of cultural knowledge for environmental activism and sustainability sensitization. Rune Hjarnø's ongoing work on developing the Nordic Animism perspective can be supported through this Patreon profile.NotesRune Rasmussenhttps://nordicanimism.com/https://www.youtube.com/user/Runehrhttps://www.patreon.com/nordicanimismMentionsThe Story of B by Daniel QuinnAn Animist Testament by Daniel QuinnAnimism by Graham Harvey The Handbook of Contemporary Animism Edited by Graham HarveyPerceptions of the Environment by Tim IngoldPanpsychism, the philosophy of Animism - Interview with Prof. Arne Johan Vetlesen.Saving the Indigenous Soul with Martin PrechtelTerry Jones' The BarbariansThe Primitive Celts https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x72r71pThe Savage Goths https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x42a2epThe Brainy Barbarians https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x72r71rThe End of the World https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x42v7ipSand Talk by Tyson YonkaportaMaori SpiralBraiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall-KimmererCover Photo by https://unsplash.com/@michael957Support the show

First published on my blog on March 31, 2022. Read the post here → Maybe violence isn't all that bad?! The first time I entertained that statement/question I shocked myself. A long time ago (August of 2013) I wrote a piece entitled Violence is never the answer and I absolutely, one-hundred-percent believed it to be True. Capital T Truth. But now… No. I no longer think it is. I am greatly influenced by Daniel Quinn and My Ishmael, where he speaks at length to this. I remember picking apples from my mother's apple trees in the fall while listening to the audiobook. I've read the physical book before. I've listened to the audiobook before. But this time, happily picking apple after apple, I immediately ‘rewound the tape' and re-listened to the chapter where violence is discussed in such a way that I all of a sudden saw beyond the violence, saw the reason for it, or at least a possible reason for it, in way's I'd never before understood it. As I worked on the transcript of my fifth conversation with Reddy, episode 49 on Tankespjärn with Helena Roth, where we spend much of the time playing (yes. Absurd as it might seem, play is the best descriptor, I think.) with violence, I heard myself say Maybe violence isn't all that bad?!, knowing that if anyone can stomach me saying that, it's Reddy. Which he did like a champ. So, what about violence might not be all bad? Well… Look at other species, and you will see more in-species fighting, and less between-species fighting. (Note, I write fighting, and not killing. Most predators hunt-to-kill other species, rather than rely on their own species for prey, but they fight with their own kind.) This has been true for humans too, for most of human life on earth. The in-species fighting has served the purpose of keeping other groups/tribes on their toes, making sure they don't relax. (Which, incidentally, also is a way to keep the other's as well as ourselves fit because who knows when they might return the favor?!). The concept of drawing first blood has sufficed, to a large extent, and not until the culture of Modern Man did we start to annihilate the others if they did not assimilate into our culture. No longer settling for you are free to do what you do, as long as we are free to do what we do, the culture of Modern Man stated that you may no longer remain separate from us, rooted in your own culture and behaviours. You have to do what and how we do. Nothing else is acceptable. The mash-up of this innate (?) trait–violence as a part of the way of nature–twisted, thwarted and manipulated by the culture of Modern Man, combined with technological advances, where you no longer have to be within arms reach to kill another person–has brought us to where we are today: A place where it's easy, almost a given, to dehumanize the other, and where the effect of violence-at-a-distance wreaks havoc way beyond the concept of first blood. So. Again. Maybe violence isn't all that bad?! But the violence I speak to is not the violence of today, where brutal, lethal force is applied at a distance, dehumanizing perpetrator and victim both. It's as if we've turned up the volume too high on violence and need to turn it down again, to recalibrate violence to a level where it isn't all that bad, again. Or?

Ron Brown offers a summary of Daniel Quinn's novel: Ishmael.  Ron found this book very helpful when he was seeking truth but not following Jesus.  The writer's allegorical approach to the early parts of the bible helped him realize that the bible was full of wisdom.Support the show

The Casuals have special guest Josh on to discuss the book Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.

Bella was a calming presence in an online meet-up I attended last fall, having me reach out afterwards, inviting her to a one-on-one conversation. Lucky for me, she accepted, and we've had a few since then. Wise. Calm. With an energy that makes me feel good when I am around it. So I am thrilled to have her as my fifth conversation partner for season three, already looking forward to our upcoming four conversations. With Bella, perhaps because of how we met, perhaps because of the vibes she gives off, conversations go naked quite quickly. And given how much I've worked on owning my wants, needs, longings and desires, it's extremely helpful to be in conversation with someone who knows, to her very core, that she's entitled to her wants and needs. ‘Even when I am not allowed to express my wants, I don't go and say, well, those are not legitimate wants and needs. That they can stay inside me, as legitimate.' ~Bella Just as I've been saying, for years, how all feelings are signals, I've actually never really broken it down to looking at my wants in the same way. It's a signal, to heed or not, in the moment or at a later stage. And as such, it's valid. It's there. Not Truth, as such, but not something I need to or should disregard, label as illegitimate, invalidating myself. ‘I don't want to do the good thing. I want to do the real thing.' ~Bella What might real look like? For me. For you. For us. How to dance with all of it? The joy, the happiness, being cheerful and buoyant, and all that we deem good and the anger, nastiness, jealousy, and petty emotions that seemingly scare us so much they are described as bad. How to dance with all of that? That's what real means for me. Join me and Bella for a meandering conversation, where you will encounter tankespjärn in many more ways as well.

Slow sustainable fashion meets yoga in this heart opening episode with our dear Lady Farmer friend, Amanda Agricola. A true renaissance woman, Amanda is the creator of Flowy, a sustainable slow fashion brand providing comfortable, naturally dyed garments for yoga and life, using materials that bring a consciousness to how we cover our bodies. As an artist and entrepreneur, Amanda brings a thoughtful and intentional eye to her products, empowering her customers energetically while also supporting mother earth. A disheartened consumer herself, frustrated by the systemic failures of the apparel industry, Amanda created Flowy out of a desire to cultivate a deeper appreciation for the materials that cover our bodies. Not only does she make her products herself, but Amanda invites participation in the making process through natural dye workshops and by distributing seeds for customers to grow their own dye gardens. She also offers a do-it-yourself dye kit to further encourage awareness of this sustainable process. Working with nature through these hands-on, intuitive methods, Amanda integrates her lifestyle and work with her goal to create a little love and comfort in the world.

Me and Reddy sat down for our fifth and final conversation on the 24th of February 2022, when Russia made their move on Ukraine. With that backdrop, perhaps you will not be surprised that our conversation circled around the concept of violence. But, not necessarily in the way you might think. We assume that we're good human beings if we are not violent. And we assume that if we are violent, then we are bad human beings. The simplicity of that statement makes it all the more violent, because we are immediately classifying and splitting people apart, creating more room for violence, more likelihood of violence. ~Reddy I've been giving violence quite a lot of thoughts lately, even going into therapy a few months ago with the statement Maybe violence isn't all that bad as the starting point. Made for an interesting therapy session for sure. This conversation in no less interesting to me, and we touch on so many interesting aspects of violence. Of aggression. On who wants war, and who doesn't. On the non-violence movement of Gandhi, and how aggressive his ‘turn the other cheek'-practice was. Bring in a few kittens, the harvest of sweetgrass and playing rock-paper-scissor over Ukraine, and you have the range of this conversation! And regardless if you agree with what pops out of the mouth of me and/or Reddy in this meandering conversation of ours, I hope you pick up on something that was very apparent to me as we were talking: we dare have this conversation. With each other. (And you, because it's published now too.) This is most definitely a sticky topic, or a potentially sticky topic at least. But we dance with it and each other, in a way that for me is respectful with a lot of curiosity and openness. And laughter, a vital ingredient in life, and definitely in sticky conversations. So, dive in, and play with us, in a respectful and curious way, where agreement isn't the purpose. We don't HAVE to agree. We don't HAVE to come to any one conclusion. Bouncing from tankespjärn to tankespjärn, we are simply playing in the space between Violence is bad and Maybe violence isn't all that bad. Join us?

Direct link to episode with extra photos and Ted's poetry: https://www.ofsedgeandsalt.com/podcastblog/tedpackard   Ted studied History and Anthropology at Christopher Newport University, got a Master's in Teaching, went on the road with the Momentary Prophets band, and then went to study with Alderleaf Wilderness College and Wilderness Awareness School. He taught various program for youth around the greater Seattle area for many years before relocating to Durango, Colorado to dry out, as he says. After some years of a break, Ted just started up a new nature connection program for youth in the Durango community. Ted does lots of things, including various handcrafts, refurbishing guitars and other instruments, music-making, writing, wood-burning and more. As college peers, we spent a lot of time together researching things like mushroom cults, the esoteric origins of Judeo-Christian religion, the anthropology of psychedelics, zen koans, and more. We both have lived in different places since and woven in and out of each others' lives so we spent some time really checking in about how we think about things now vs. when we were radical activist driven neo-pagan coyote-trickster troubadour mind-melters.     In this episode with Ted, we talk about: Ted's nature connection mentorship work with youth in Washington and Colorado Ted's upbringing in northwestern Virginia Our experience in college of community: artists, philosophers, musicians, activists, and neo-pagans and our reflections on that time now seasonal ritual as a somatic map ways that Ted's anger at an eco-cidal culture has transformed over the years to a yearning for finding points of connection vs. telling someone they are wrong or how to live what is a community of mutuality in a broken society that emphasizes hyper-individualism? activism can look many ways and can even be in small moments of advocacy awareness of the isolation of capitalism is often crippling the reality that financial security is generally not available to our generation (millennials) Ted's musical projects which include Momentary Prophets from his early 20's, that had a coyote-troubadour element with community driven instigation, as well as his own solo projects paying attention to ‘nature' bringing you closer to crazy synchronicities that become signposts to keep going weaving a web of interrelated ideas and ecologies as a way of being trauma, neutrinos, quantum physics intersecting eastern philosophy, bodies as multiplicity, the mycelium nature of everything, music as ecological channeling   Links: The Emerald Podcast, mentioned on the podcast Daniel Quinn, author we mention on the podcast Mystic Moon of Norfolk, VA, pagan community mentioned Terence McKenna, mentioned on the podcast Mountain Justice: organization dedicated to ending mountain top removal in Appalachia Momentary Prophets on Facebook Momentary Prophets on Bandcamp (Interstitial music featured on the episode) Ted's music on Bandcamp (he is putting out a new album RIGHT NOW, his individual music featured in the intro of this episode) Wilderness Awareness School Living Earth School Sophie Strand Ted's Patreon for his music, art, writing Ted's revived blog of writing (do yourself a favor and read and savor) Ted's Venmo if you'd like to donate to help support his musical projects : @Theodore-Packard Support the podcast on Patreon to contribute monthly to our grassroots self-funding of this project  For one time donations to support this podcast: Paypal : paypal.me/petitfawn VENMO: @kelly-moody-6 Cashapp: cash.app/$groundshotsproject   Our website with an archive of podcast episodes, educational resources, past travelogues and more: http://www.ofsedgeandsalt.com  Our Instagram pages: @goldenberries / @groundshotspodcast Join the Ground Shots Podcast Facebook Group to discuss the episodes Subscribe to our newsletter for updates on the Ground Shots Project Music: by Ted Packard and Momentary Prophets This episode hosted by: Kelly Moody Produced by: Kelly Moody and Ted Packard

My guest today is Jason Godesky. Jason is an old friend and colleague of mine. We met in the early 2000's on an internet chat board called “Ish Con” short for Ishmael Conference. It was a place to discuss the ideas presented in the books by Daniel Quinn. It was here that I gave Jason the nickname, “The Machine Gun” for his ability to remember and rapidly deploy facts, journals, studies, ethnographies, and more to back up many of the positions in what we would later call Rewilding. When ishcon closed down in 2006, I bought the domain rewild.info and invited Jason to help create a new online chat board specific to rewilding. Jason is well known for his essays on his now defunct blog, The Anthropik Network. A few years ago when Rewild Portland acquired rewild.com, I asked Jason to write the content to help people describe what rewilding means. These days his main focus is on using storytelling and gaming to promote the concepts of rewilding. Though, every once and a while he'll post a new essay on a particular topic of interest. It's his latest essay, entitled “Overpopulation” that we'll be discussing here on the rewilding podcast today. Notes:Jason's ProjectsOverpopulation by Jason GodeskyThe Fifth WorldThe Fifth World PatreonMentionsIshmael by Daniel QuinnMaking Kin Not Population Perceptions of the Environment by Tim IngoldPopulation Growth Daniel QuinnLotka–Volterra equationsLaw of Limited CompetitionEurope & The People Without History by Eric WolfThe Collapse of Complex Societies by Joseph TainterAgainst the Grain by Richard ManningAll Things Being Equal: A Review of The Dawn of EverythingOvershoot by William CattonThe Neolithic refrigerator on a Friday nightWhy These Bears “Waste” FoodJevons Paradox: The Efficiency DilemmaDisinterpretationDegrowthSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/petermichaelbauer)

With author, poet and grief counsellor Stephen Jenkinson, this episode revolves around the topics of Grief, Soil and the Origins of an Orphaned Culture – our culture. Our elder-bereft, drunk-on-efficiency, consumerist, clearcutting-of-forests, fracking-of-mountains, bottom-trawling-of-the-oceans culture. The unfortunate inheritance of Our Day. Some of the questions in this conversation are inspired from the interviewer's recent reading of the book “Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn. Others come from the pain of being a human in the time of the Sixth Mass Extinction. Please visit Campfire Stories for our films and more. Hosted on Acast.

Quantum Quote: “the iPhone has 100,000 times more computing power than an entire Apollo rocket ship that went to the moon”  Karl Rabago led renewable energy research and development programs for the United States government, did advocacy work with the Environmental Defense Fund, consulting work with engineering firm CH2M Hill, policy analysis with the Rocky Mountain Institute, ran Regulatory Affairs in 28 countries for AES, and launched a greenhouse gas credit business with GE energy. Karl is the founder of the groundbreaking “Value of Solar” concept where we move beyond paying for what solar costs. Where CONsumers become PROsumers who also generate our own energy and are paid the real higher VALUE that energy is worth. SuperNova #1. “When we run a scenario to electrify the economy and reduce carbon emissions by 95%... we can see 5 trillion dollars in energy savings for the people in the United States by 2050…  It's a win win, win, win win win scenario - you notice everything about it and the jobs, multiply… and the savings multiply, and the rates go down.” SuperNova #2. What stands in the way is anything we've ever done before, which is usually what stands in the way of everything we want to do. SuperNova #3.  Here it comes again. It's going to come in another way, and it'll work for you. And it'll probably be better. And you'll be telling stories to your great grandkids about how you were here when they used to just make electricity at power plants. SuperNova #4.  Think of all the ways to ask good questions. If you need something from someone, especially a bureaucrat, the best question to ask is: what would you do if you were me? It invites them to be in your space. Worst Clean Energy Moment – Coming up with a great new idea – the “Value of Solar” – and then getting attacked for it by his friends in the solar industry because it was too different.  Ah-Ha:  Deciding to call it a simple name - the value of solar - so everyone (regulators, utilities, average people) could understand it. Best Advice he's ever received: “Saw the wood that's in front of you”. Focus on what you're doing and do it as well as you can, and that will lead to great opportunities.  Personal Success: Don't be afraid to ask questions. Try ideas out on people. Ride a bike or spend other time NOT thinking about work. Start the day with an hour of current industry news so that the patterns form in the back of your head while you work on the stuff in the front.

Magic Wand – The best part of COVID without the disease. Talk to our neighbors instead of driving by each other. Be polite while standing in line, because we believe we are sharing in a common effort. Ask questions about what is important in life. Spend more time with our family. Get back to community.

Everybody has something to offer in solving the problems that affect us all. Step up and listen to other people, and step into the dialogue. Because being a bystander is not an option - we all have a responsibility.   Connect: Twitter @RabagoEnergy. http://www.rabagoenergy.com/ Email: karl@rabagoenergy.com
