Podcasts about every sense

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Norman Farb to discuss his new book, Better in Every Sense, co-authored with Dr. Zindel Segal, which explores how we become emotionally stuck and how to break free. Drawing from cutting-edge neuroscience, Dr. Farb introduces Sense Foraging, a practice that helps us escape the rigid mental habits that dull our experience of life. Instead of forcing change through willpower, the book reveals how engaging deeply with sensation can enhance resilience, creativity, and well-being. Join us as we unpack the science behind breaking free from stagnation and rediscovering a vibrant connection with the world.

TVC 668.5: Joseph Dougherty, author of Rod Serling at 100, talks to Ed about how The Twilight Zone operates on an ethical and moral universe (for the most part); why The Twilight Zone is particularly appealing to anyone who loves language; and why Joe believes that most of the hour-long Twilight Zone episodes are better than most people remember. Rod Serling at 100 is available from Fayetteville Mafia Press.

This is Verla Fortier of your Outside Mindset show. This podcast is about taking back  your outside mindset by exploring and practicing new ways of noticing when you are outside  close to nature  whether you live in the city or country. Two podcast episodes ago I did a solo podcast on a great book “Better In Every Sense: How the New Science of Sensation Can Help You Reclaim Your Life.” This is the link to that podcast episode is titled Get Intentional About Using Your Senses.  Today I have the author of this book with me. This is his bio.  Norman Farb, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Toronto Mississauga, where he directs the Regulatory and Affective Dynamics laboratory. He studies the cognitive neuroscience of well-being, focusing on mental habits, such as how we think about ourselves and interpret our emotions. Together with Prof. Zindel Segal, he wrote Better in Every Sense, a book that describes the surprising role of sensation in mental health. His current research explores online interventions to support  wellbeing, and neuroimaging of interoception, our sense of the body's internal state.Tanscript of interview is on my website Treesmendus.com For peer reviewed research on how your time spent in green space can change your mindset, balance your nervous system and your heart rate please go to my website https://treesmendus.com and check out my books Take Back Your Outside Mindset: Live Longer, Stress Less, and Control Your Chronic Illness and Optimize Your Heart Rate: Balance Your Mind and Body With Green Space

In this week's Best of Episode, we welcome Molly Fletcher.  Molly is a keynote speaker and former top sports agent who has represented over 300 high-performing athletes, coaches, and broadcasters. She's also the author of several best-selling books, including The Energy Clock, The Business of Being the Best, and Fearless at Work. Molly's mission is to lead, inspire, and connect with courage and optimism. She encourages people to find the courage to combat complacency, and through her recently released TED talk, her Game Changers podcast, and her in-person and virtual trainings, she helps others strengthen their resolve, maximize their potential, and develop a winning mindset.In this episode, you'll hear from Molly Fletcher on:(00:03:05) Navigating change. Molly emphasizes the importance of adapting to change and refers to the example of one of her former clients, Major League Baseball Hall of Famer John Smoltz, who successfully transitioned from starting pitcher to closer. She praises his ability to see his new role as an opportunity rather than a challenge and encourages everyone to view change as a chance to get curious, explore new possibilities, and fulfill their true potential. (00:06:53) Creating a Smile File. Molly recalls making a highlights reel for one of her athletes and using it to help him recover his form. She describes how she continues to apply this technique in non-sporting contexts and suggests compiling a ‘Smile File' of appreciative emails, inspirational quotes, and words of wisdom to provide comfort and motivation when things get tough.(00:17:39) Conducting an energy audit. She explains how to live a more energized life by scheduling time on your calendar for the activities that light you up while making a conscious effort to minimize, delegate, or remove the tasks that leave you feeling exhausted and drained. (00:41:50) Molly's morning workout. She talks us through her morning routine,  which consists of hot yoga, cardio training, and strength conditioning, and she extols the benefits of walking, eating cleanly, and taking regular cold showers and plunges.(00:43:55) Cultivating a champion mindset. We discuss Molly's recent TED talk, and she reveals how her time as a sports coach taught her that the most successful athletes concentrate on upping their own game rather than focusing on what their competitors are doing. She also recommends chasing constant improvement and fulfillment rather than recognition and achievement.

Ed Clancy is from a place called Barnsley, in the U.K. He's a guy who didn't come from a cycling family so his accomplishments are that more amazing. Ed says he was the bike as  freedom.  His very first race was a club 10 mile time trial. He didn't do so well but it didn't deter him from pursuing his dreams. Ed was just starting his A-levels for school when he got not the British Cycling system. He says the team pursuit always came easier to him than any of the other disciplines on the track. His haul of medals in big races is simply mind blowing. In the Olympics he has 3 golds and 1 bronze, World Championships his tally is at 6 golds, 5 silver medals and 1 bronze. If you look at his European Track Champs haul it stands at 5 gold and 2 bronze and then lets throw in 8 world record times in the team pursuit. Ed didn't push for a road career because he always had his eyes on the track. But don't be fooled, he was probably one of the best criterium riders in Europe. The U.K. Crit scene is no joke. And if you don't believe me just listen to my interview with Daniel Holloway who spent some time over there. In this interview Ed and I talk about marginal gains, pursuit training, his decision to retire and life after a pro career.  Ed is one of my favorite interviews because he's such a cool ass dude.

In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast Mark Lindsay is encouraged about the direction of music after a trip to his local big box retailer. The sudden appearance of some so-called “obsolete” goods were prominently displayed, which put a surprising amount of spring in his step for the rest of the day. This morphed into a discussion with Eloy Escagedo of our 5 senses, and everything we take for granted until they're lost. There's a lot to digest in this discussion, but we think you'll find it palatable.There are a lot of digressions, segues, philosophical points, and just general rambling in this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, so pull up a beverage and relax. We think you'll enjoy this thought provoking episode."Two guys from different decades, backgrounds, and opposite sides of the continent discuss life, the universe, and everything.

Tex Williams, a legendary cowboy, gives us a look into the recent past. We count ourselves lucky to get to spend a little time with gentlemen who are willing to share their experiences about what it is like to grow up in a cowboy culture. Tex shares what it was like having a father who was a working cowboy and what it was like from his point of view growing up during segregation.  I personally am inspired by his ability to work through adversity and succeed, to not let it define him. This will easily go down as one of my favorites. thanks Tex

Bri Books 8 Autumnal Flavors: Apples - Apples reach their peak in the autumn, with the flavor improving as the cooler weather settles in. There are hundreds of apple varieties, and they vary wildly based on your state. Now's the perfect time to explore roasting apples alongside veggies. Carrots - Carrots are hearty, sweet, comforting, and pair perfectly with every meal. Slow-roasted rainbow carrots topped Kosterina dark chocolate balsamic vinegar ($19.95) creates an almost caramelized effect. You'll be shocked how quickly you devour these veggies!  Turmeric - Turmeric is an ancient crop, well-known for its anti-inflammatory properties. It has a warm, nutty flavor that's synonymous with curries around the world. If you want to sneak turmeric into your diet, I'd recommend you start with Dona turmeric spice dust ($10), a blend of turmeric, allspice, pink peppercorn, black pepper, and lemongrass. I love to use the powder to top my gold lattes and tea brews, and adding a few teaspoons to cake batter will completely transform your baking.   Ginger - Ginger is classically known as a warm, spicy root. Pro tip: Experiment with ginger-based marinades for your meats and ginger-infused bone broths for your winter soups and stews! Chai - Chai is the perfect autumnal spice profile. The earthy, woody flavors of cardamom, pepper, and clove in the Dona masala chai dust ($10) instantly ground any dish. An interesting way to experiment with chai: Add a half teaspoon of chai spice to your salad dressings for a dynamic baby greens salad.  Pears -  Pears deliver a subtle and delicate crunch and flavor compared to their sibling, apples. Now’s a great time to bake pears for a decadent dessert dish, or spiralize them to add to your salads and veggie roasts. Cinnamon - We’ve been creeping around this spice all episode. Like with chia, cinnamon is a signature autumn flavor. Make your own fresh cinnamon powder by grinding cinnamon sticks in a coffee grinder.  Squash - This year in my backyard garden, we grew butternut squash from scratch from seeds! Taste the goodness of delicata squash, honey-nut, acorn, and butternut squash this season gently roasted. (here’s a recent Bri Books episode about how to get started gardening.) If you like more butternut bisque experience, grab a butternut squash. To open a squash, simply slice off top and bottom, and then split the squash down the middle.

Indoor herb like basil or cilantro - I repotted and over-wintered the basil and cilantro growing in the garden. Choose an herb you love and plant it on your kitchen windowsill for an instant injection of freshness. Small parlor palm - Preferring 55-70 degrees, moist soil and filtered sunlight, the small parlor palm adds density to any indoor garden. The mini-trees create a faux forest look. Pothos - Pothos is arguably the easiest of all houseplants to grow and the most recognizable houseplant. It does well in rooms like offices, dorm rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens (yes, it even grows under fluorescent lighting). Pothos tend to vine, so I love to use them to take up area and create a living web of plants. Philodendron - Philodendron plants like bright, indirect sunlight, and regular fertilization to grow into its best self.   If you’re new to the show, WELCOME!

Today we celebrate a bryologist who Asa Gray called, "a noble fellow" and the botanist who, along with his wife, helped found the New York Botanic Garden in the Bronx. We'll learn about one of the first and most prolific professional female garden photographers and the female botanist with a mountain named in her honor. Today’s Unearthed Words feature poetry that's all about using our imagination and memory when it comes to our gardens in the dead of winter. We Grow That Garden Library™ with a book that helps us appreciate our garden through our senses during all four seasons. I'll talk about a garden item that is cute and functional and can be used outside of the garden as well, and then we’ll wrap things up with the anniversary of the opening of the museum that was started with the estate of the botanist Sir Hans Sloane. But first, let's catch up on a few recent events.   Subscribe Apple | Google | Spotify | Stitcher | iHeart   Curated Articles Gardening with Dave Allan: Scent in the winter garden | HeraldScotland Here are some great suggestions from Dave Allan about sweetly scented flowering shrubs for your Winter Garden: Take the small cream flowers of shrubby Lonicera fragrantissima(Common Name: sweet breath of spring): They suffuse the air with compelling fragrance. You know they’re frustratingly close but sometimes must act as a sniffer dog to track them down, hidden in a tangle of leaf-stripped twigs. I can’t see beyond Viburnum bodnantense ‘Dawn.’It’s always a joy to have a whiff every time I pass by on the way up to the duck run. A flush of little buds readily replaces any that have been blasted brown by frost and snow. Viburnum farreri and V. tinus also faithfully flower from November to February. I’m thinking of shrubs like Mahonia japonica and M. x media (Common Name: Oregon grape-holly). These evergreens do boast highly scented sprays of the tiniest yellow buttons, so don’t banish them to the gloomiest corner just because they’re tough woodland edge plants. Why not plant them where you’ll actually see them?   6 must-visit garden shows for 2020 From House Beautiful (ww.housebeautiful.com) | @hb: “What are the best British garden shows to visit in 2020?

His father, Lucas, was a surveyor and had named the town in honor of the recently deceased Benjamin Franklin. The settlement would become Columbus. In 1823, William Sullivant graduated from Yale College. His father would die in August of that same year. Sullivant took over his father's surveying business, and at the age of thirty, he began to study and catalog the plant life in Central Ohio. In 1840, Sullivant published his flora, and then he started to hone in on his calling: mosses. Bryology is the study of mosses. The root, bryōs, is a Greek verb meaning to swell. It's the etymology of the word embryo. Bryology will be easier to remember if you think of the ability of moss to swell as it takes on water. As a distinguished bryologist, Sullivant not only studied and cataloged various mosses from across the United States, but also from as far away as Central America, South America, and from various islands in the Pacific Ocean. Mosses suited Sullivant's strengths, requiring patience and close observation, scrupulous accuracy, and discrimination. His first work, Musci Alleghanienses, was: "exquisitely prepared and mounted, and with letterpress of great perfection; ... It was not put on sale, but fifty copies were distributed with a free hand among bryologists and others who would appreciate it." In 1864, Sullivant published his magnum opus, Icones Muscorum. With 129 truly excellent illustrations and descriptions of the mosses indigenous to eastern North America, Icones Muscorum fixed Sulivant's reputation as the pre-eminent American bryologist of his time. In 1873, Sullivant contracted pneumonia - ironically, an illness where your lungs fill or swell with fluid - and he died on April 30, 1873. During the last four decades of his life, Sullivant exchanged letters with Asa Gray. It's no wonder, then, that he left his herbarium of some 18,000 moss specimens to Gray's beloved Harvard University. When Sullivant was still living, Gray summoned his curator at Cambridge, Leo Lesquereux, (pronounced "le crew"), to help Sullivant, he wrote to his friend and botanist John Torrey: "They will do up bryology at a great rate. Lesquereux says that the collection and library of Sullivant in muscology are Magnifique, superb, and the best he ever saw.'" On December 6, 1857, Gray wrote to Hooker, "A noble fellow is [William Starling] Sullivant, and deserves all you say of him and his works. The more you get to know of him, the better you will like him." In 1877, four years after Sullivant's death, Asa Gray wrote to Charles Darwin. Gray shared that Sullivant was his "dear old friend" and that, "[Sullivant] did for muscology in this country more than one man is likely ever to do again." The Sullivant Moss Society, which became the American Bryological and Lichenological Society, was founded in 1898 and was named for William Starling Sullivant.   1859Today is the birthday of the American botanist and taxonomist Nathaniel Lord Britton. Britton married the famous bryologist Elizabeth Gertrude Knight. Together, they used Kew Gardens in London as their inspiration for the New York Botanical Garden. An obituary of Britton, written by the botanist Henry Rusby shared this charming anecdote - an exchange that happened some few years back between Nathaniel and Henry: "Attracted one day, by the beauty of some drawings that lay before him, I inquired as to their source. When told that he, himself, was the artist, I asked in astonishment, 'Can you draw like that?' 'Of course,' he said. 'What you suppose I did all that hard work in the drawing class for?'"   1864Today is the birthday of Frances Benjamin Johnston - who always went by Fannie. Fanny was a photographer, and she took the portraits of many famous people during her career. Some of her famous subjects included Mark Twain, Susan B Anthony, Booker T. Washington, and Teddy Roosevelt. In 1897 the magazine Ladies Home Journal featured in an article that was written by Fanny called "What a Woman Can Do with a Camera." But gardeners should also know the name Frances Benjamin Johnston because Fannie also took incredible photos of gardens - public and private - during the early to mid part of the 1900s. Her garden photography of the elite was used in magazines and periodicals like House Beautiful and Country Life. And Fannie went around the country using lantern slides of gardens as visual aids for her lectures on topics like "The Orchids of the White House," "American Gardens," and "Problems of the Small Gardener," to name a few. One newspaper account said Fannie, “presented with the enthusiasm of a true garden lover.” Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. wrote that Fannie’s photographs were “the finest existing on the subject of American gardens.” Over her career, Fannie was recognized as one of the first female press photographers in America. And if you’re a gardening cat lover, you’ll be pleased to know she had two cats; Fannie named them Herman and Vermin.   1923 Today is the anniversary of the death of Sara Plummer Lemmon. Lemmon is remembered for her successful 1903 piece of legislation that nominated the golden poppy (Eschscholzia californica) as the state flower of California. Asa Gray named the genus Plummera in honor of Sara Plummer Lemmon. Plummera is yellow wildflowers in the daisy family, and they bloom from July through September in southeastern Arizona. Lemmon and her husband, John Gill Lemmon, were both botanists. Her husband always went by his initials JG. Although Sara partnered equally with her husband on their work in botany, their papers were always published with the credentials "J.G. Lemmon & Wife." The Lemmons had found each other late in life in California. They had both suffered individually during the civil war. John was taken prisoner at Andersonville. He barely survived, and his health was impacted for the rest of his life. Sara had worked herself ragged - tending wounded soldiers in New York - while teaching. In 1881, when Sara was 45 years old, the Lemmons took a honeymoon trip to Arizona. They called it their "botanical wedding trip." The Lemmons rode a train to Tucson along with another passenger - President Rutherford B. Hayes. When they arrived, the Lemmons set off for the Santa Catalina Mountains. In Elliot's history of Arizona, he recounts the difficulty in climbing the mountain range: "The Lemmons often sat on the stone porch of their cave and dug the thorns and spines out of their hands and feet." Once, they saw, " . . . a lion so large he carried a huge buck away without dragging feet or antlers." When they returned to Tucson unsuccessful and discouraged, they were told to meet a rancher named Emerson Oliver Stratton. Thanks to Stratton, they were able to ascend the Catalinas from the backside. When they arrived at the summit, Stratton was so impressed with Sara's drive and demeanor he named the mountain in her honor - Mount Lemmon. Sara was the first woman to climb the Catalinas. Twenty-five years later, in 1905, the Lemmons returned to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. When they climbed the Catalina's in celebration, Stratton was again at their side, helping them retrace the steps of their "botanical wedding trip" to the top of Mount Lemmon.   Unearthed Words Today we hear some poetry about the importance of using imagination and memory in regards to our gardens during the winter months.   From December to March, there are for many of us three gardens -  the garden outdoors,  the garden of pots and bowls in the house,  and the garden of the mind's eye. — Katherine S. White, Garden Author   Soon will set in the fitful weather, with fierce gales and sullen skies and frosty air,  and it will be time to tuck up safely my roses and lilies  and the rest for their winter sleep beneath the snow,  where I never forget them,  but ever dream of their wakening in happy summers yet to be. — Celia Thaxter, American Poet & Storyteller   Of winter's lifeless world each tree Now seems a perfect part; Yet each one holds summer's secret Deep down within its heart. — Dr. Charles Garfield Stater, Methodist Pastor & West Virginian Poet, Buckwheat Fields, and Brush Fences   Gardeners, like everyone else, live second by second and minute by minute. What we see at one particular moment is then and there before us. But there is a second way of seeing. Seeing with the eye of memory, not the eye of our anatomy, calls up days and seasons past, and years gone by. — Allen Lacy, Garden Writer   In winter's cold and sparkling snow, The garden in my mind does grow. I look outside to blinding white, And see my tulips blooming bright. And over there a sweet carnation, Softly scents my imagination. On this cold and freezing day, The Russian sage does gently sway, And miniature roses perfume the air, I can see them blooming there. Though days are short, my vision's clear. And through the snow, the buds appear. In my mind, clematis climbs, And morning glories do entwine. Woodland phlox and scarlet pinks, Replace the frost, if I just blink. My inner eye sees past the snow. And in my mind, my garden grows. — Cynthia Adams, Winter Garden, Birds and Blooms magazine, Dec/Jan 2003   Grow That Garden Library Cultivating Delight by Diane Ackerman This book came out in 2002, and the subtitle to Cultivating Delight is "A Natural History of My Garden. This book was the sequel to Diane's bestseller, "A Natural History of the Senses." In this book, Diane celebrates the sensory pleasures of her garden through the seasons in the same vein as Tovah Martin's "The Garden in Every Sense and Season." Diane is a poet, essayist, and naturalist, and she writes in lyrical and sensuous prose. Let me give you an example. Here's how Diane starts her section on spring: “One day, when the last snows have melted, the air tastes tinny and sweet for the first time in many months.That's settled tincture of new buds, sap, and loam; I've learned to recognize as the first whiff of springtime.Suddenly a brown shape moves in the woods, then blasts into sight as it clears the fence at the bottom of the yard. A beautiful doe, with russet flanks and nimble legs, she looks straight at me as I watch from the living room window, then she drops her gaze." The Boston Globe praised this book, saying Ackerman has done it again... one of the most buoyant and enjoyable garden reads... uplifting and intelligent. The New York Times review said: “Understated elegance, lush language, historical and scientific nuggets, artful digressions, and apt quotations, Ackerman's book reminds us that we, too, can make our paradise here and that tranquility can be achieved by contemplating the petals of a rose.” You can get a used copy of Cultivating Delight by Diane Ackerman and support the show, using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for under $2.   Great Gifts for Gardeners DII Men and Women Kitchen Shamrock Green Buffalo Check Apron, Green and White Buffalo Check $14.99 I have a thing for aprons.

(261 years ago). The British Museum was founded in 1753 when Sir Hans Sloane left his entire collection to the country of England. At first glance, a personal collection doesn't sound worthy of starting a museum. But over his lifetime, Sloane ended up becoming a one-man repository for all things relating to the natural world. Sloane outlived many of the explorers and collectors of his day, and as they would die, they would bequeath him there herbariums and collections. So when Sloane passed away, he essentially had become the caretaker of the world’s Natural History, aka the British Museum. Today the British Museum is the largest indoor space captured by Google Street View. Google mapped the museum in November of 2015, and so it's now available online to all of us. When your friends ask you what you're doing, you can say, "I'm going to tour the British Museum. What are you up to?"

Brevities   #OTD  Happy Winter's Day! In the Old English poem of the Anglo-Saxon Calendar known as the Menologium, November 7th is considered to be the first day of winter - 'Winter's Day.' According to the poem, winter has 92 days, lasting from November 7th to February 6th.       #OTD   Today is the birthday of the American landscape designer Warren H Manning who was born on this day in 1860. The day Manning was born, his father recorded the moment in his diary: "At five minutes past 12 this morning, we had a son born to us. He is strong and healthy to all appearances. I set Hackett at work to dig the hole while I planted the Elm tree to commemorate the day that our first child was born. I think that there should be a tree planted at the birth of every child so that in the after times it may be seen which is most useful."   Manning's dad was undoubtedly proud of his son, who worked on design projects in almost every state in the country. Manning started out as an apprentice to Frederick Law Olmsted before going out on his own. Ultimately, Manning designed on all types of properties, from estates to golf courses and everything in between. All told, his portfolio included over 1,600 projects. One of the signature aspects of Manning's practice was promoting "Wild Gardens."  Wild gardens appealed to Manning because they were more affordable (at least initially) for his clients compared to formal gardens. Adding wild spaces meant that Manning would generally get an opportunity to follow up on his projects as they usually needed some fine tunings. Then, third, many of Manning's private wild garden designs ended up becoming a gift to the community. And Manning was always thrilled to see more natural areas transitioned into public spaces. The Birmingham artist and Landscape Architect Frank Hartley Anderson gave a moving tribute to Manning upon his death: "Fifty other towns and cities today arc better places to live because of the vision of Warren H. Manning. Eleven hundred communities, in part, were made pleasanter places through his 50 years of wholehearted service."         #OTD Today is the anniversary of the death of The Botany Man Willis Linn Jepson, who died on this day in 1946. Carved on his tombstone are the following words: “Profound Scholar, Inspiring Teacher, Indefatigable Botanical Explorer, ... In the ordered beauty of nature, he found enduring communion.”   When Jepson was 25, he created the Sierra Club along with John Muir and Warren Olney. During Jepson's junior year at Berkeley, he decided to start a diary. His diaries became known as his field books. Like many botanists, Jepson was an archivist at heart, and he recorded everything - not just dates, but as much as he could. It was a practice Jepson never abandoned and resulted in over fifty Jepson field books. In 1894, Jepson began to think seriously about creating a Flora of California. As long as he was working on the flora, Jepson thought he might as well create a herbarium, which he considered to be his legacy. Although Jepson often said he disliked common names, he came up with many on his own. He once named a plant Mountain Misery after suffering the after-effects of walking through it. By the early 1900s, automobiles were becoming mainstream, but Jepson warned, “You must still go afoot if a real botanist. No field botanist should become soft and travel only in an auto.“  Jepson had started numbering plants for his flora in 1899. His last specimen was No. 27,571 - the Salsola kali - a little plant commonly known as Prickly Russian Thistle. Jepson collected it on October 28, 1945. Earlier that year, Jepson suffered a heart attack when he attempted to cut down a dead Almond tree on his ranch. Sadly, he never fully recovered, and on this day in 1946, Jepson passed away. Jepson impacted many botanists. One was Mary Bowerman, who was one of Jepson's doctoral students. She wrote once, “Little did I know, 65 years ago, that my senior project would become my life‘s work.“   Another botanist influenced by Jepson was George Dexter Butler. Butler's story is unusual. He was trained as a lawyer, but his passion was botany. Yet, he put his botanical efforts aside to raise his family. But when he was 56, he passed by a book store in Oakland. The store had a copy of Jepson's Flora. His time to pursue botany had come, and the trigger was that little book written by Willis Lynn Jepson.     #OTD  A year ago today, we said goodbye to Irvin M Williams, who died on this day in 2018 at the age of 92. Williams served as Chief Horticulturist at the White House from 1962 to 2008, becoming the longest-serving gardener in White House history. Williams helped develop the Rose Garden during the Kennedy administration. He once said that the Merion bluegrass that made up the famous White House lawn as "the best grass you can have."     Unearthed Words Today is the birthday of the poet Ruth Pitter who was born on this day in 1897 As a gardener herself, Ruth had an excellent understanding of flowers. Pitter once shared that she liked to write her poetry only after she finished bother her chores and her gardening. My favorite book by Pitter is The Rude Potato. It's is a very witty and entertaining collection of poems about gardens and gardeners. Here's a verse from Ruth Pitter about November from her 1941 book called The Diehards:   "All in November's soaking mist We stand and prune the naked tree, While all our love and interest Seem quenched in the blue-nosed misery."   On this day in 1855, Henry David Thoreau was writing about the November mist as well: "Another drizzling day, — as fine a mist as can fall... My thoughts are concentrated; I am all compact. The solitude is real, too, for the weather keeps other men at home. This mist is like a roof and walls over and around, and I walk with a domestic feeling... The world and my life are simplified. What now of Europe and Asia ?"         Today's book recommendation: Onward and Upward in the Garden by Katherine White After Katherine separated from her first husband, she married E.B. White, who was the author of three beloved children’s books, Stuart Little (1945), Charlotte’s Web (1952), and The Trumpet of the Swan (1970). In the early 1930s, Katherine and E.B. bought a farmhouse in North Brooklin, Maine. By the end of the decade, they moved there from New York. White began writing garden pieces for The New Yorker in 1958. Onward and Upward in the Garden (1979) is her only book, edited and published posthumously by her husband E.B. White. Gardeners especially enjoy EB White's tenderly written preface to his gardener wife.

Sonny had an accident in the front room this week. When the carpet cleaner arrived, I asked if they could clean the outdoor rugs, and even the natural fibered welcome mat got a makeover with a quick professional clean. It was the perfect first step toward getting the house ready for the holidays. Next week is all about putting together containers and pots for the holidays.     Something Sweet  Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart On this day in 1967, The Daily Times out of Salisbury, Maryland, reported the death of botanist and author Norman Taylor who died on November 5th. Taylor immigrated from England with his parents when he was a little boy. He was very sickly and was not able to stay in school. In his early 20's, Taylor was hired to work at the New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) by Nathaniel Lord Britton. It was a lucky break for Taylor as Brittain became his personal tutor in Botany, taking Taylor along on expeditions to the Caribbean. Taylor also worked as the curator of plants at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. There, he came up with the idea of a Garden Dictionary. It brought Taylor accolades and popularity. His obituary in The Daily Times shared what Taylor considered one of his most significant endeavors: "Besides writing over a dozen books and articles by the score on botany, Mr. Taylor is responsible for what he considered a "terrific undertaking." This was the amount of work required in framing 33,000 botanical definitions for Webster's New International Dictionary, second edition, published by Houghton, Mifflin Co. 1933-36."       Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

Today we celebrate fall through the eyes of a writer and naturalist from the year 1855 and the botanist honored with building on the University of Glasgow. We'll learn about the Indian botanist who bred a new species of sugar cane and the Arizona Palm - yes, it does exist! We'll hear some November Poems.   We Grow That Garden Library with a book that helps us savor the garden through our five senses. I'll talk about the task some gardeners regret forgetting and then share a little story about the botanist who ended up becoming one of the most prolific orchid hunters.     But first, let's catch up on a few recent events. Saturday morning, I woke up to a snow-covered garden. Winter is gaining on us... but don't despair. I found a lovely video clip from Katie Rushworth @queenofspades00 over at Silverline Tools, who shares that there are plenty of ways to add color to your winter garden. You can watch along in her video as she plants a colorful border and uses evergreens and semi-evergreens.  She adds a lovely heuchera and huecherella.  Next, she uses a beautiful false bamboo or Nandina and pittosporum for interest and texture. Then, she incorporates a Pyrrhus into the back of the border as well as a Sibirica dogwood. Katie points out that the more exciting foliage you can source, the more dynamic your border will become.   Next up, Mary Ellen Ellis @gardenknowhow shared a great post over the weekend called How Many Kinds Of Ginkgo Are There? Well, the answer is lots! I love the Fairmount, the Majestic Butterfly, and the  Lacy Ginkgo.   "Fairmount. This is a columnar ginkgo, meaning its growth habit is narrow and upright. This is a good choice for narrow spaces with plenty of vertical room. Majestic Butterfly. This type has variegated leaves, green streaked with yellow. It is also a smaller tree at just 10 feet (3 meters) high at maturity.   Lacy Ginkgo. The lacy cultivar is so-called for its leaves, which have a textured edge that gives the appearance of lace."   Finally, as trends go, Houseplants are Hot! I found a great post that was reshared from last Dec by @batesbn and featured in the blog Greenhouse Management called Houseplant Comeback.The subtitle was: Tech-savvy Millennials are reviving the houseplant market. How will the latest indoor foliage trends affect growers and retailers in 2019 and beyond? The article featured @gardenmedia Katie Dubow: “Whether we’re doing it consciously or subconsciously, we’re putting more greenery in our homes because we’re spending more time inside.” "[Last year], the National Initiative for Consumer Horticulture (NICH) developed a series of infographics to promote the proven health and wellness benefits of houseplants. The #PlantsDoThat campaign illustrated how indoor plants can improve test scores in classrooms, lower blood pressure in hospitals and increase productivity in the workplace. “We started the #PlantsDoThat campaign to show people what houseplants actually do in their everyday lives,” says Day, who is also the chair of the commercial council for NICH. “These benefits resonate with Millennials because they want something that does more than just look pretty.”   Now, if you'd like to check out these curated articles for yourself, you're in luck - because I share all of it with the Listener Community in the Free Facebook Group - The Daily Gardener Community.  So there’s no need to take notes or track down links - the next time you're on Facebook, just search for Daily Gardener Community and request to join. I'd love to meet you in the group. Brevities #OTD  On this day in 1855, Henry David Thoreau wrote in his journal: "The winter is approaching. The birds are almost all gone. The note of the 'dee de de' sounds now more distinct, prophetic of winter, as I go amid the wild apples on Nawshawtuct. The autumnal dandelion sheltered by this apple-tree trunk is drooping and half-closed and shows but half its yellow, this dark, late, wet day in the fall... Larches are now quite yellow, — in the midst of their fall... When I look away to the woods, the oaks have a dull, dark red now, without brightness. The willow-tops on causeways have a pale, bleached, silvery, or wool-grass-like look."   #OTD   On the same day Thoreau was recording his autumnal observations, the English botanist Frederick Orpen Bower was born (in 1855). Bower became the Regius chair of botany at the University of Glasgow, "Glass-go." When he arrived, the department consisted of two rooms and a small attic space for the herbarium. When Bower lectured, he had to vie for a lecture hall with other departments and faculty. In 1901, the University completed a new botany building, which was technically Britain's first botanical institute. As part of the University's 450th-anniversary celebration, Sir Joseph Hooker opened the building. It was renamed in the 1990s to honor Bower and became known as the Bower Building. On October 24, 2001, the Bower building was significantly damaged by a fire. The losses included first editions of Darwin's Origin of the species, as well as works from both Hooker and Bower. Many of the oldest botanical manuscripts and books were impacted because they were stored on the third floor under the roof space. After almost four years of continuous work, the building reopened in November 2005.       #OTD   Today is the birthday of the Indian botanist EK Janaki Ammal who was born on this day in 1897. She was born in Kerala and studied in numerous colleges in India and received her masters and doctorate at the Unversity of Michigan.  Before Ammal's work, the sugar cane grown in India didn't grow well and wasn't sweet. After her schooling, Ammal worked at a sugar cane breeding station, and she began experimenting with varieties of sugar cane. Although she faced significant jealousy and discrimination from her male counterparts, Ammal managed to create a variety of sugar cane that grew well in the climate of India and it was sweet. It made India a significant grower of sugar cane.       #OTD On this day in 1984, the Arizona Republic newspaper shared an article by Vic Miller, a professor of agriculture at Arizona Stale University, about the history of the native palm of Arizona. The article starts this way: "Yes, we do have a native palm. Seeds of it were collected in Arizona; taken to Belgium and grown in a nursery; [observed] and named by a German botanist, but it is called the California fan palm."   The mystery about the California Fan Palm was not whether it existed but where it came from - California or Arizona. The article continued: "In 1976, ... researchers published an article ... stating that there was [an area where] native palms [grew naturally] in Arizona... on Castle Creek, about a mile north and west of Castle Hot Springs. This discovery helped solve a 100-year-old mystery. [Here's the backstory:] In 1879, a German botanist, Herman von Wendland, named our [Arizona] palm Washingtonia filifera in memory of George Washington. He had seen the plants growing in a nursery in Belgium. Seeds from which these were grown had been collected in America.  But from which state had the seeds been collected?  Three years earlier, in 1876, the German botanist Georg Drude wrote that the seed was collected in Arizona, along the Colorado River. Then, the [Italian botanist, Dr. Francesco Franceschi, also said that the seed was] from Arizona.  But the Stanford botanist and herbarium curator, Samuel Parish, disagreed because the area where the seeds were collected was supposedly near Prescott. According to Parish, this was "a region of pines rather than of palms." Thus he insisted that the seeds had to come from California. Now, what Parish didn't realize, was that there actually were groves of Arizona palms - only 38 miles from Prescott  - at Castle Creek. So how did the Arizona Palm seeds end up in Belgium? Well, it turns out, the 1870's stagecoach line went right along Castle Creek to Prescott Arizona and then onto Santa Fe New Mexico. In September 1872, the Czech botanist and Extreme Orchid Hunter Benedict Roezl was in that part of the Southwest on his way to Mexico. He likely bought some of the ripe purple fruit of those Castle Creek Arizona Palms when fellow travelers were selling them. Then, he sent the fruit on to Germany with his other specimens.         Unearthed Words "November's sky is chill and drear, November's leaf is red and sear." - Sir Walter Scott   "Listen ... With faint dry sound, Like steps of passing ghosts, The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break free from the trees And fall." - Adelaide Crapsey, 1878-1914, November Night       Today's book recommendation: The Garden in Every Sense and Season by Tovah Martin I am a huge Tovah Martin fan, and this book does not disappoint. First, I have to share what Michelle Slatalla of Gardenista wrote about this book (it's so good - it's printed right on the cover!) "Reminds us that the best way to get to know a garden is through our senses. Don't expect to make it through many pages before you feel an urge to run outdoors to reintroduce yourself to your own landscape."  This book is one of my favorites, and I'm thrilled to share it with you today - at the start of November - a month where we count our blessings and are thankful. Martin's book is about that - being present and aware - as well as so genuinely grateful for our gardens. Gardens are so much work. But don't forget they are the muse to so many of our dreams. We get so much joy from them and, if your in a Northern Garden like I am, the time we get to spend in them is so minimal. In Tovah's book, she shares 100 essays that are divided into the four seasons; but then each season is divided into the five senses - sight, smell, sound, touch, and taste. Let me share a few excerpts from her section on autumn: Sight "Gone to Seed" "Look closely, and you'll realize that seed heads are fascinating. Also, they aren't usually as glam as flowers. They're intricate little packets carefully designed to ensure tomorrow for whatever sedum, mountain mint, aster, marigold or echinacea they plan to disperse."   Sound "Crunch Time" "You might say my affinity for rakes is just the sour grapes of a 90-pound weakling unable to pull a ripcord effectively. And you might be right. But there is something infinitely fulfilling about unearthing the herbaceous peony with its tawny blush leaves still intact and rejoicing because I will be enjoying its color for another few weeks."   Touch "Get a Grip" "Some women have an arsenal of shoes at their beck and call. A stack of gloves placed by the door is more my speed.  The collection includes mud gloves, leather gloves, lined gloves, driving gloves, gauntlets, and wool gloves... Wear the wrong gloves in autumn, and your hands are going to suffer. "    Touch "Underground Assets" "I have a conspiracy theory linking chiropractors to the autumn planting bulbs trend."   Tovah Martin is such an excellent writer - conversational and witty - and the photography in this book is beautiful.     Today's Garden Chore Don't forget to shut the water off to your spigots; you don't want frozen water to burst your pipes.    Disconnect the garden hoses from the spigots and bring the spray nozzles into a warm space so that they can be used next year.      Something Sweet  Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart You might be wondering what happened to Benedict Roezl, the botanist who sent the Arizona Palm seeds back to Germany and then Belgium. Here's the rest of his story: Once he got to Mexico, Roezl started a business out of growing a nettle called the Boehmeria nivea, which produces a fiber that can be harvested. He had built a machine to extract the fiber from the Boehmeria and brought it to an exhibition. When someone asked if his machine could to extract fiber from an agave, Roezl attempted to try it. Tragically, his hand got caught in the machine and was crushed. The accident changed his life. Roezl left his business and began collecting plants full-time. Roezl collected over 800 orchids from Mexico and South America, along with thousands of other plants like agaves and cacti. In Columbia, he discovered the Zambia Roezlii; the tallest and oldest orchid of all. Even though Roezl was 6‘2“ tall, and used an imposing iron hook for a hand, during his collecting days, Roezl was robbed 17 times and, once, even attacked by a jaguar. Roezl collected for a nurseryman named Sander for 40 years.   At the end of his life, Roezl returned to Czechoslovakia. His country welcomed him home with open arms, and the Russian czar honored him. After he died at home in his bed, his funeral was attended by the Austrian emperor.   Today, there is a handsome statue of Roezl in Prague. It’s located on the southern end of Charles Square.       Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

The hot mic pre-show discusses an adventure at Dunham's Sporting Goods, cigarette prison currency, and the alternative uses for the ol' keister. Steve believes that you don't have to keister in a white-collar prison. Brad's girlfriend, Ashley, is in studio for episode 18 and that alone makes this one special and energetic. Steve and Brad offer life and work updates, one of which is so bad that it cannot be fully discussed on the show... and that's saying something... and we collectively wonder how to define the Christmas-itis. Brad ended up back in the hospital one last time in 2018, involving high temperatures, misdiagnoses, and collapsing in the living room at the house, and Steve compares it all to an episode of Little House on the Prairie. Then we find out not only that Steve played soccer, but what we different when he did... or so he says. Pretty women hold tremendous power, and Ashley has managed to get Brad to watch all eight Harry Potter films. We reminisce about the first time we saw the first Britney Spears music video. A vicious Aaron Hernandez joke, and a discussion about some shocking news regarding the rumors surrounding his sexuality, leads to Steve dropping a dynamite Christopher Lowell reference that could be the most obscure, shocking reference made in eighteen episodes of the podcast. Ashley and Steve talk about their common ground as guitar players thanks to a Sweetwater catalog (sponsor us!), and we all deny the reports and pitfalls of a wood shortage in the world. Before the break, sponsor, owner of Blue Gold Title Research, and friend of the show Jim Ashley chimes in with a listener commentary to follow up on his recent appearance on episode 017. After the break, Brad and Steve talk about the recent championship fight between Adonis Stevenson and Oleksandr Gvozdyk, which ended in an eleventh-round knockout and left the now-former champion, Stevenson, in a coma, and highlight how we may not feel as bad as we normally would because of his history as a Haitian pimp that abused and turned underage girls out as prostitutes. Several attempts are made to discuss the recent passing of our 41st president, George H.W. Bush, on November 30th, but things get sidetracked. The sidetracking issues include: Brad's hatred of Kirby Puckett and Kent Hrbek, Brad and Ashley's hatred of Bryce Harper, Steve's trash-talking son, sickle cell anemia, the nonsensical beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses and Scientologists, acquiring someone else's traits through blood transfusions, Steve's uncle's love of Van Halen and cocaine, and Crystal Pepsi. We learn that a certain child actor should not have been Home Alone with Michael Jackson, throw some unexpected respect at Ross Perot, and talk about how we miss Dave Markert. Steve thinks that former president Obama is a dickhole, his politics notwithstanding. Brad, Steve, and Ashley present their Top 5 Goals for 2019, we learn that head will make you do a lot of things, and we hear about appearances from the shocker, the minivan, and Horns Down. Getting drunk and then smashed, or just smashed, is alluded to... just before one of the most horrific and distasteful references in the history of broadcast media is made and Brad has to ask the Lord for forgiveness for even hearing it. Steve fills us in on his Blackout Checklist, hates Oprah Winfrey, briefly confuses Roots and The Color Purple, and talks about his personal experience with Roots outtakes. We listen to the viral video of Grover possibly being profane in a recent episode of Sesame Street before offering up our final Virginia Tech Update of the year as we close what might be our craziest show of the year... or ever.

Replay of segment 2 of The Wisconsin Vegetable Gardener Radio Show from 10-20-18 on 860AM WNOV and W293cx 106.5 FM Milwaukee WI, Thank you for listening and downloading the show Topics: Joey and Holly talk about how organic is the food labeled organic How organic is the food you're eating Organic food is food produced by methods that comply with the standards of organic farming. Standards vary worldwide, but organic farming in general features practices that strive to cycle resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity – without use of conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation What pesticides do to us – - lower immune system - make us tired/fatigued - can increase risk of disease/cancer - cause metabolism problems Not “healthier” necessarily In 2017 reported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) revealed its failure to make sure that imported organic foods actually meet USDA organic standards. Part of this was a failure to check documents and do audits, but perhaps most horrifyingly, even when imported crops do actually meet organic standards, there’s a decent chance they’ll end up being fumigated upon arrival with pesticides not allowed under USDA organic regulations. In order for milk and meat to be sold as organic, the animals can eat only organic feed, and most feed corn and soy grown in the U.S. is genetically modified, which doesn’t qualify as organic.

Replay of The Wisconsin Vegetable Gardener Radio Show from 10-20-18 on 860AM WNOV and W293cx 106.5 FM Milwaukee WI, listen here during show hours Saturdays 9-10 am CST https://tinyurl.com/zvh5kaz Thank you for listening and downloading the show Topics: Joey and Holly talk about Overwintering plants, how organic is the food labeled organic guest Tovah Martin of http://www.tovahmartin.com/ Overwinter plants Kale – carrots – beets – Brussels sprouts – kohlrabi - chard How organic is the food youre eating Organic food is food produced by methods that comply with the standards of organic farming. Standards vary worldwide, but organic farming in general features practices that strive to cycle resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity – without use of conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation What pesticides do to us – - lower immune system - make us tired/fatigued - can increase risk of disease/cancer - cause metabolism problems Not “healthier” necessarily In 2017 reported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) revealed its failure to make sure that imported organic foods actually meet USDA organic standards. Part of this was a failure to check documents and do audits, but perhaps most horrifyingly, even when imported crops do actually meet organic standards, there’s a decent chance they’ll end up being fumigated upon arrival with pesticides not allowed under USDA organic regulations. In order for milk and meat to be sold as organic, the animals can eat only organic feed, and most feed corn and soy grown in the U.S. is genetically modified, which doesn’t qualify as organic. How to prevent non-organic – clean 15/dirty dozen, shop stores that don’t sell produce that’s been sprayed with pesticides, find a local farmer ____________________________ In her constant, undying pursuit of all things garden-related, Tovah gets her hands dirty both outside and indoors.

I had run out of time and desperate to get a guest on my show in less than 24 hours. Magic happens when I get into the Delancey St. station and am drawn into Pinc Louds musical vortex. Talent, beauty and authenticity begin to describe this truly original being. Claudi brought her stand-up bass player, Bear and we had a super fun and revealing conversation about how Claudi came to America from an island and what her childhood was like (happy family, musician dad). Plus these two were so excited about being on the show, it boosted my self-esteem! https://www.facebook.com/pincloudsings/ https://pinclouds.bandcamp.com/ @pinc_louds #music #psychotherapy #pinclouds #art

Section 31: Control: David Mack. Section 31: The Federation's dirty little secret. Amoral, operating in the shadows, and accountable to no one, the secretive group has become a cancer in the body of the Federation. But what are Section 31's true origins? And can Julian Bashir finally succeed in bringing them down once and for all? In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Dan Gunther and Bruce Gibson are joined by author David Mack to talk about his latest novel, Section 31: Control. We discuss the origins of the story, the surveillance state, a chapter written in computer code, the nature of the intelligence behind Section 31, the roles of Data and his daughter Lal, Sarina's part in the story, what's next for the Federation, and wrap up with some hints for future Trek novels as well as some upcoming convention appearances for David Mack.
