Nicole sits down with Ava Roy, founder and artistic director of We Players, to dive into the inspiration behind their latest immersive production at Fort Point. They explore the origins of We Players, the creative process behind site-integrated theater, and how Fort Point's unique history shapes the current show.
We are so excited for this week's episode with Lauren Rich, co-owner of Backyard Boston! Lauren joins us to share her journey of transforming an outdoor fitness community into a thriving business with multiple locations across the city. From launching their first space in South Bay in 2022 to opening The Yahd in 2023, Lauren and her partners have taken bold risks to redefine the fitness scene in Boston. Now, they're preparing for their biggest move yet—bringing both concepts under one roof in Fort Point. Along the way, Lauren has balanced the intense demands of entrepreneurship with the realities of motherhood, navigating pregnancy, labor, and postpartum while scaling her business!In this episode, we dive into what it really takes to build a lasting fitness studio, the challenges of running a business with partners, and the raw truths of balancing motherhood with entrepreneurship. As a mom to three kids (two of them twins!) Lauren opens up about making tough business decisions, dealing with mom guilt, and what it really takes to find balance. Enjoy!

Ava Roy grew up in rural Western Massachusetts, in an area rich in literature and theater. Ava met Ann Podlozny back east before Ava came to California to attend Stanford, which is where she created a theater production group. Today, Ava is the founding artistic director of We Players, a 25-year-old theater company based in San Francisco. Ann, who'll play Lady Macbeth in an upcoming, all-woman production of Macbeth, is based in London and came back to be in the play and to support her friend Ava in whatever way she can. While at Stanford, Ava let her art play, in the sense of public displays such as throwing banners off the clock tower and tying bodies to sculptures around campus. She discovered that art would be her life's work, not just a hobby. One idea she had while in Palo Alto was to do a production of Shakepeare's Romeo and Juliet held all around the Stanford campus. It was a success, as the audience grew and grew as it moved around, picking up more and more people along the way. Ava was able to turn this type of theater into an independently designed major. After graduating, she moved to the East Bay and started doing theater productions there and in The City. She started partnering with the National Park Service (NPS) in 2008 and then with SF Recreation and Parks in 2018. Ava's first production at Fort Point, the Civil War-era fort under the southern base of the Golden Gate Bridge, was in 2008. From 2009 to 2011, she had a three-year residency on Alcatraz, further deepening her relationship with the NPS. In 2013, she kicked off Macbeth at Fort Point. But a funny thing happened—a government shutdown that year effectively ended that run under the bridge. Fast-forward nearly a decade, and the NPS reached out to see whether Ava and We Players were interested in trying again to produce Macbeth at Fort Point. That brings us to the present day. Ava's friend Ann had left theater and had been working in movies. She'd also been taking epic walks—as in hundreds of miles at a time, all over the world. She was on one of these walks when she and Ava connected over Zoom and Ann offered to play the part of Lady Macbeth to Ava's Macbeth in We Players' upcoming production. Ann would not only play one of the two major roles in the play, but she would also be there for Ava to help with various aspects of putting it all together, including casting. It was somewhere in this time that the decision was made for this to be an all female-identifying and non-binary cast. We Players is run and was founded by women, but they hadn't done a production with a cast like this before. It was 2024, before the election. It just felt right. Ann and Ava talk about the themes of Macbeth and how they relate to the current times we're in, no matter who we are. Ava touches on how important it is for her to foster a caring, kind, nurturing environment among her cast members, and how poignant that is for such a violent play like Macbeth. Then we pivot to talk about how times have changed, 10 years removed from the last time they did this at Fort Point, and how they have not. Ava also describes what it's like inside of Fort Point, something we in San Francisco might not all know about. One point they want to emphasize for anyone who comes to see their show—it's cold as hell, even by SF standards. We Players' production of Macbeth at Fort Point opens on April 11 and runs through May 18. All shows start at 6 p.m., Thursday through Sunday (with a few exceptions), rain or wind (duh) or shine. Tiered tickets (for equitable access) are available at the We Players website. We recorded this episode in the Gramercy Towers in March 2025. Photography by Jeff Hunt
On his mom's side, Woody LaBounty's San Francisco roots go back to 1850. In Part 1, get to know Woody, who, today, is the president and CEO of SF Heritage. But he's so, so much more than that. He begins by tracing his lineage back to the early days of the Gold Rush. His maternal great-great-great-grandfather arrived here mid-Nineteenth Century. Woody even knows what ship he was on and the exact day that it arrived in the recently christened city of San Francisco. On Woody's dad's side, the roots are about 100 years younger than that. His father grew up in Fort Worth, Texas (like I did). His dad's mom was single and fell on hard times in Texas. She came to San Francisco, where she had a step-brother. Woody's parents met at the Donut Bowl at 10th Avenue and Geary Boulevard (where Boudin Bakery is today). Donut Bowl was a combination donut shop/hot dog joint. At the time the two met, his dad worked as a cook there and his mom was in high school. His mom and her friends went to nearby Washington High and would hang out at the donut shop after school. The next year or so, his parents had their first kid—Woody. They came from different sides of the track, as it were. Woody's mom's family wasn't crazy about her dating his working-class dad, who didn't finish high school. But once his mom became pregnant with Woody, everything changed. The couple had two more sons after Woody. One of his brothers played for the 49ers in the Nineties and lives in Oregon today. His other brother works with underserved high school kids in New Jersey, helping them get into college. Woody shares some impressions of his first 10 years or so of life by describing The City in the mid-Seventies. Yes, kids played in the streets and rode Muni to Candlestick Park and The Tenderloin to go bowling. It was also the era of Patty Hearst and the SLA, Jonestown, and the Moscone/Milk murders. But for 10-year-old Woody, it was home. It felt safe, like a village. Because I'm a dork, I ask Woody to share his memories of when Star Wars came out. Obliging me, he goes on a sidebar about how the cinematic phenomenon came into his world in San Francisco. He did, in fact, see Star Wars in its first run at the Coronet. He attended Sacred Heart on Cathedral Hill when it was an all-boys high school. He grew up Catholic, although you didn't have to be to go to one of SF's three Catholic boys' high schools. Woody describes, in broad terms, the types of families that sent their boys to the three schools. Sacred Heart was generally for kids of working-class folks. After school, if they didn't take Muni back home to the Richmond District, Woody and his friends might head over to Fisherman's Wharf to play early era video games. Or, most likely, they'd head over to any number of high schools to talk to girls. Because parental supervision was lacking, let's say, Woody and his buddies also frequently went to several 18+ and 21+ spots. The I-Beam in the Haight, The Triangle in the Marina, The Pierce Street Annex, Enrico's in North Beach, Mabuhay Gardens. There, he saw bands like The Tubes and The Dead Kennedy's, although punk wasn't really his thing. Woody was more into jazz, RnB, and late-disco. We chat a little about café culture in San Francisco, something that didn't really exist until the Eighties. To this day, Woody still spends his Friday mornings at Simple Pleasures Cafe. And we end Part 1 with Woody's brief time at UC Berkeley (one year) and the real reason he even bothered to try college. Check back next week for Part 2 with Woody LaBounty. And this Thursday, look for a bonus episode all about We Players and their upcoming production of Macbeth at Fort Point. We recorded this episode in Mountain Lake Park in March 2025.

Mike Schnebeck from Fort Point Beer Co. in San Francisco is our guest in the studio today on Brew Ha Ha with Steve Jaxon and Herlinda Heras. Mike was on Brew Ha Ha once before in 2023, on this episode. Herlinda happily reports that Fort Point Beer Co. is actually growing and doing very well. They also are producing cider. And also, today is the eleventh anniversary of the first episode of Brew Ha Ha, back when Herlinda did the show with Joe Tucker. It was four years after that, on Feb. 8, 2018, that this podcast started. Cheers!
Ernie DeRaps, a native Mainer, spent several years in the 1950s and ‘60s as a Coast Guard lighthouse keeper at four Maine lighthouses – Monhegan, Fort Point, Heron Neck, and Browns Head. A book written by Ernie and his wife Pauline was published by Foghorn publishing in 2006. Ernie's half of the book was called Lighthouse Keeping. If you turn the book over and upside down, the other half of the book, by Pauline, or Polly, Fitzgerald DeRaps, was called Light Housekeeping. "Light Hearted" host Jeremy D'Entremont, Ernie DeRaps, and American Lighthouse Foundation Executive Director Bob Trapani Jr. in February 2019. Ernie took up painting at the age of 80 and completed portraits of all of Maine's lighthouses. He and Pauline were married for 64 years and had six children. Pauline passed away in 2015 and Ernie followed her last year, at the age of 95. Ernie DeRaps at Monhegan Lighthouse in 2007. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. This is an edited version of an interview that was recorded in February 2019. Also taking part in the discussion is Bob Trapani, Jr., executive director of the American Lighthouse Foundation.
John Paul Scott reste à ce jour le seul détenu officiellement reconnu comme s'étant évadé d'Alcatraz et ayant survécu pour atteindre le rivage. Cet exploit impressionnant, survenu en 1962, fait de lui une figure mémorable dans l'histoire de la célèbre prison fédérale.Alcatraz : une forteresse réputée inviolableSituée sur une île dans la baie de San Francisco, Alcatraz était une prison fédérale de haute sécurité, connue pour son isolement et ses conditions strictes. Entourée par des eaux froides et des courants puissants, elle semblait infranchissable. Pourtant, plusieurs détenus tentèrent de s'échapper, bien que la plupart échouèrent ou disparurent sans laisser de traces.L'évasion audacieuseLe 16 décembre 1962, John Paul Scott et un autre détenu, Darl Dee Parker, décidèrent de défier l'impossible. Employés comme cuisiniers à la prison, ils eurent accès à une cuisine équipée de fenêtres donnant sur l'extérieur. Après avoir scié les barreaux avec des outils de fortune, ils purent s'enfuir. Leur plan : nager jusqu'au rivage en utilisant des gants en caoutchouc transformés en flotteurs artisanaux.Une traversée périlleuseLes deux hommes se jetèrent dans les eaux glaciales de la baie. Darl Dee Parker ne parvint pas à surmonter les courants et fut rapidement retrouvé par les gardes sur des rochers à proximité de l'île. En revanche, John Paul Scott poursuivit sa traversée, parvenant à lutter contre le froid et les courants. Après plusieurs heures d'efforts, il atteignit Fort Point, un lieu situé sous le Golden Gate Bridge, à environ 3 kilomètres d'Alcatraz.Un succès temporaireEpuisé, en hypothermie et incapable de se déplacer, Scott fut découvert peu de temps après par des passants et arrêté par les autorités. Bien que son évasion ait réussi techniquement, il fut rapidement ramené à Alcatraz. Ce fait rend son histoire unique : il est officiellement reconnu comme ayant atteint le rivage, contrairement à d'autres évadés dont le destin reste incertain.Une évasion historiqueL'exploit de John Paul Scott souligna les failles de sécurité d'Alcatraz et fut l'un des événements contribuant à sa fermeture en 1963. Bien que son évasion n'ait pas conduit à la liberté, elle reste une démonstration de courage et de détermination face à des conditions extrêmes. Hébergé par Acast.

The three interviews heard in this episode date back to the summer of 1988, when Light Hearted host Jeremy D'Entremont traveled up the Maine coast to visit lighthouses. The first interview is with Maurice Babcock Jr., at his home in Lubec, Maine. His father, Maurice Babcock Sr., was the last civilian keeper at Boston Light. He was the prinicipal keeper there from 1926 to 1941 after about a decade as a keeper at other Massachusetts light stations.

The last interview is with Malcolm Rouse, the final Coast Guard keeper at Owls Head Light Station in midcoast Maine. The light stations at Fort Point and Owls Head were in the process of being automated when these interviews were conducted. Malcolm Rouse was also the final Coast Guard keeper at West Quoddy Head Light Station before it was automated earlier that year.

Brew Ha Ha's Summer vacation continues with this repeat episode all about Anchor Brewing's history, featuring Mark Carpenter. This episode was originally recorded and published on May 2, 2019. Today on Brew Ha Ha Steve Jaxon gets the whole story from Mark Carpenter about Anchor Brewing, its history and historical context, its production and its role in American brewing. (We were expecting guests from San Francisco's Fort Point Beer Co. but they are stuck in traffic and will reschedule.) Mark Carpenter (l) and the Anchor team in the '70s. Mark Carpenter started working at Anchor Brewing in 1971 after he met its owner Fritz Maytag. He was looking for a more interesting and rewarding line of work and found that at Anchor. Mark retired a few years ago and Anchor's new brewmaster is Ramon Tamayo, who was also on the show recently. Warm or Cold Beer? Right now, Mark is tasting a Shadow of a Doubt Imperial Porter from Russian River Brewing Co. It's warm but it's fine, Mark says that if a beer is good it should be good at room temperature too. "In warm countries they drink cold beer, in cold countries they drink warm beer." The beer is named after the Alfred Hitchcock film Shadow of a Doubt which was filmed in Santa Rosa in 1943. Mark talks about the Fort Point, an interesting brewery, says Mark. They do a Kölsch. All over Germany, the towns had their own styles of beer. Then Lager beer was invented and they all switched to that. But Kolsch is a surviving local beer from the city of Cologne (called Köln in German). An Imperial Porter means it's a black beer. Compared to a Stout, a Porter is sweeter. It also has nice flavors. "Imperial" means it is higher in alcohol, this is 10%. The Story of Anchor Brewing Co. So without our expected guests, Steve invites Mark to tell the whole Anchor Brewing story which starts with what a city San Francisco was in the last 1960s. They were protesting the Vietnam War and there was an abundance of great music at venues like the Fillmore. Mark remembers the background of the city where people were looking for ways to do something more inspiring than his "normal" job. Mark would visit any American city and visit its breweries. He visited Coors in Colorado and Pabst in Wisconsin and took brewery tours. Steve is from Detroit and asks if Mark visited Stroh's there, but he hasn't. Stroh's called itself "fire brewed" which was a common European process in the late 1800s where beer was heated in copper kettles heated by fire, not steam. Mark says that steam applies less heat than a gas flame which gives some caramel color and flavor that steam does not. Stroh's was the only beer in America that was fire brewed. Stroh's today is owned by Pabst but it's not the same and is not fire brewed anymore. The Importance of Good Luck Mark always says he was lucky to get the job at Anchor. It was the smallest brewery in America at the time. They worked hard to build their reputation. Before they had volume sales, they only brewed once a month but sales steadily increased. Mark gives Fritz Maytag credit for having great business vision for the brewery, from the time he acquired it in 1965. Fritz had heard that the brewery would be closing and he went to visit it. He saw magic and potential and wound up buying it. He would say that he paid "less than you pay for a good car." It was a nineteenth century brewery. There was no refrigeration. It was a very crude little brewery and Fritz invested money into it. Fritz wanted to make sure that people knew Anchor not just for Anchor Steam Beer. At first they had Anchor Steam Dark which simply had caramel coloring added. Fritz wanted to develop the Porter to replace that to do it right. They even started distilling in 1993.

Mike Schnebeck of Fort Point Beer Co. Mike Schnebeck from San Francisco's Fort Point Beer Co. visits Brew Ha Ha with Harry Duke and Herlinda Heras today. Fort Point is an independent San Francisco beer company. They have become one of San Francisco's best known independent breweries by following their calling to make craft beer more accessible. Herlinda begins by describing the Fort Point SF Beer Week Dim Sum beer and cider pairing. She mentions their Kolsch beers, which is their specialty. The owners started with Mill Valley Brewing Company, which started in 2010 and then Fort Point started in 2013. Fort Point has two locations, one is the Ferry Building taproom and the other main taproom is on Valencia St. in the Mission district. There they have a San Francisco seafood menu in addition to their beers. The Fort Point Mission Fort Point's mission “...is to make really balanced approachable and nuanced beer,” what they call good beer for everyone. They take classic existing styles that they add a twist to. Mike worked for Beer Works based in San Diego, where he developed his interest in craft beer. Beer Works gave him an opportunity to brew beer. Today they are the largest independent brewer in the city. Visit our sponsor Victory House at Poppy Bank Epicenter online, for their latest viewing and menu options. Mike's title of director of brewing innovation is basically an R&D position. He shifted into this more creative role after managing the day-to-day operation. Some of his current recipes date back to his time at Beer Works. They will make about 27,000 barrels this year. Fort Point's signature beer is the KSA, Kolsch style ale. He thought their Park Pale Ale would be the flagship but the customers had other preferences. He did visit Cologne, Germany to study the local beer, which is where Kolsch style beer comes from. Russian River Brewing Co. is open in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Click the logo to visit their website for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more info. Fort Point has just launched 2 ciders, Super Dry and Super Natural, a Rosé-inspired cider. A lot of breweries are expanding their product line. Several have added selzers but Fort Point has chosen to add cider to their production. They liked dry cider. Many ciders sold as dry were not really that dry. They spent some time developing their recipe to make it dry the way he wants it. It is “bone dry” says Herlinda. At the Dim Sum event, the dry cider went very well with all the Asian dishes. The cider went very well with dishes like Crispy Pork Rib and Peking Duck. SUPER NATURAL CIDER The Super Natural cider is described as Rosé-inspired. They add hibiscus and rose hip to the cider base, which give a nice light pink-orange color. The ciders have been out for about a month so far, so they are starting to appear on shelves in stores like Hole Fudes. They are, or will be, available on draft in local restaurants. They also taste a hazy IPA called Lobos. It's funny how hazy beers are popular now, but Mike explains that the industry has figured out how to make those beers now. Mark Carpenter, who was head brewer at Anchor for more than 40 years, remarked that he worked hard to make the beer clear and never hazy, and the reversal of tastes is surprising and ironic. In England they have hazies called Scrumpies. There is a beer called Yuzu KSA which is their Kolsch with Yuzu, a kind of Japanese grapefruit with interesting flavors.
You're used to hearing about beer, but in this conversation, we're pairing that topic with food. Brewpubs and beer-focused bars and restaurants across the country all have their particular takes on menus that incorporate the two. What you'll hear momentarily shares philosophy and strategy around what people can expect from California's Fort Point Beer Company, which features full-time culinary director Cecile Macasero. Cecile has worked at prestigious restaurants recognized with James Beard awards and Michelin stars. He's organized menus for staff at Google. And as you'll hear, the things he's learned elsewhere have helped him conceptualize what food can provide to beer lovers when they visit Fort Point and what it means to create dishes that try to capture the spirit of San Francisco. Along with Cecile, we're joined by Dina Dobkin, co-owner and chief brand officer at Fort Point, who sheds additional light on the ideas and processes to create a special on-premise experience for people who visit the brewery to drink and eat. Together, Cecile and Dina explain why it's important to have a component of food at a taproom, how their family histories from outside the United States have shaped their own appreciation for food, and how beer and food can find a fun middle ground between what's interesting and what's easy to love.
When we think of the messages we send out in the world, we always think about the words. But how often do we think of photography? Not enough. Your message is more than what you say with vowels and consonants. It's also about the story you tell, the emotions you show, and the authenticity you create with photography. In this episode of Messaging on a Mission we speak with renown photographer Joel Benjamin on how to think about photography when telling your story. Episode Guest(s): Joel Benjamin is a commercial and editorial photographer, known for his bright, authentic and energetic images and ideas. A former advertising creative director, Joel has been shooting for over 25 years and has a busy studio in the Fort Point section of Boston. Joel draws on his sense of style, color and honesty to compose striking images that capture the essence of the people and things he is shooting. Known for his ability to make everyone he works with comfortable, Joel works in a relaxed and collaborative way, ensuring images that tell a story and capture a moment. His clients run the range from Drizly to Sara Campbell fashion from Biogen to Brown University. Key Takeaways: Compile a library of ideas to help inform current and future campaigns and keep everyone visually on the same page. Always start with a shot list. If you budget eight minutes per shot, that can give you a sense of how long the day will run as well as help you prioritize. At events, get all your photos done in the first few hours. No need to pay a photographer for the last hour, because one wants to see what happens toward the end! If you use employees in your photoshoots, you must have them sign release forms, because employees move on and they don't always leave their goodwill behind. If you have to use stock, seek out smaller stock agencies or really find a style of photography that you like and really pursue that, such as natural daylight. When selecting from a group of similar shots, first weed out the ones that are not usable, then look for something special in the ones that are. Remember that there is rarely just one shot that will work better than all the others. Don't worry about finding the perfect one every time. During headshots, involve the subjects with the photographer's work so they feel part of the process and are more at ease with the photographer's work. When looking for a photographer (if it's not our guest Joel!), ask other people recommendations, look at websites and Instagram accounts. It's always good to have a meeting or phone call with the photographer to make sure you're all on the same page. During a photoshoot, be open to where the day takes you. Maybe there's going to be things more brilliant you haven't thought of, and that's really always a joy for everybody when you end up with something way more than you anticipated.

Welcome back to another week of Who Knew!? This week wasn't our usual but we couldn't leave out such a huge part of our trip! We mostly dug into the history but touched on a few ghosties at three famous wartime locations in San Francisco: The SS Jeremiah O'Brien, the USS Pampanito, and Fort Point. All three were instrumental to our military ranging from the Civil War to WWII and one is still in full use!

Fort Point Lighthouse is in Stockton Springs, Maine, near the mouth of the Penobscot River. The light station was established in 1836 and the square brick lighthouse tower and attached keeper's house that stand there today were built in 1857. Terry Cole was a keeper at Fort Point when he was in the Coast Guard for three years in the 1970s. The lighthouse is within Fort Point State Park, and Terry became involved as a park manager while he was in the Coast Guard. Fort Point Light Station, Maine. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. In 1989, long after he had left the Coast Guard, Terry and his wife Jeri moved back into the light station and Terry became the resident park manager. Jeri Cole also played an important role, helping to host visitors at the lighthouse and planning events. Terry retired last August after after 44 years working for Maine Parks and Lands. In part two of this two-part interview, Terry and Jeri reminisce about living at Fort Point in all kinds of weather, about the concerts and other events they held there, and about what they're doing in retirement, among other things.

The light station is part of Fort Point State Park and is adjacent to the remains of Fort Pownall, which was built in 1759 to guard against the French. Fort Point Light Station was established in 1836, and the 31-foot square brick lighthouse that stands today was built in 1857. Fort Point Light Station, Maine. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont.

While he was stationed at Fort Point with the Coast Guard, Terry served as park manager for a while before he and his family moved on to another assignment on Cape Cod. In 1988, Fort Point Light was automated and the Coast Guard removed its keepers. The keeper's house became housing for a park ranger and his family. The first person to fill the live-in position was Terry Cole, beginning in 1989. Terry's wife Jeri also played a large role, helping to organize events and answering visitors' questions. Terry retired this past summer after 44 years working for Maine Parks and Lands and more than 30 years of living at the Fort Point Lighthouse.

An organization called Lighthouse Immersive is sponsoring a fundraising initiative built around a show called Immersive Shevchenko: Soul of Ukraine. The subject of the show is Taras Shevchenko (1814-1861), a Ukrainian poet, writer, artist, political figure, and folklorist. In the new show, the audience can see pieces by Shevchenko projected across the gallery walls, and the show is set to a soundtrack to further immerse you in his world. The exhibit first opened in Odesa to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Ukrainian independence last year. Immersive Shevchenko will be shown in five cities on March 15 – Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Toronto, and San Francisco. There will also be a virtual showing on March 15. Details are available at lighthouseimmersive.com. One of the show's producers, Valeriy Kostyuk, discusses the exhibit in a "Be a Lighthouse" segment. Listen to the podcast with this player:
It's another lightning wife-ening episode as Phil & Jake's better halves Beth & Ali return to rank Bob Saget (R.I.P.), oysters, being a know-it-all, marriage, toilet humor, expresso with an “X”, and chest hair on the List of Every Damn Thing.If you have something to add to the list, email it to list@everydamnthing.net (or get at us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook). We also have a subreddit!SHOW NOTES: As they brag about in the episode, Jake & Ali recently held one-day-old lambs at Toluma Farms in Sonoma County. If you only watch the show's opening credits, Full House really just seems like a tourism ad for San Francisco. Danny Tanner was America's Dad for Beth & Ali, whereas Phil & Jake's America was raised by Bill Cosby. Phil & Jake talk about a Bob Saget scene in the movie Dirty Work, but they really mean the movie Half-Baked. Here's the Saget bit that Beth watched where he talks about his dad's dirty jokes. Saget gets extra consideration for his work with the Scleroderma Research Foundation. Here's Saget's part in The Aristocrats, and here's the Gilbert Gottfried part. We apologize in advance. Ali mentions that a few hours before recording this episode, she and Jake enjoyed some oysters at The Marshall Store (on California's Tomales Bay). Jake mentions that a few years ago, they shucked their own oysters at Buck Bay Oyster Farm (on Washington State's Orcas Island). They've indulged in oysters in many places, but not yet at The Shuckery (in Beth & Phil's home town of Petaluma, CA). It's an ongoing debate as to whether vegans should justify eating oysters. Amy Schneider was Jeopardy! champion until we jinxed her by talking about it on the podcast (which was recorded two days before she lost). She's the most successful woman ever to compete on the game show. She's the good kind of know-it-all. Jake tried to look up the German "scheisse" song that Beth mentions, but all he could find was this Lady Gaga song. Here's Los Punkitos performing “Caca Culo Pedo Pis”. Phil & Beth are targeted by this Fabreze ad with miniature toilets. Phil talks about Eddie Murphy doing toilet humor in his early act, which is recounted in “Eddie Murphy Raw”. We're still the first full page of search results when you Google shirtless men wearing elaborate angel wings, gold lamé shorts & furry cha-cha heels. We bring up saxophone in rock music, inciting Beth to vocalize the sax riff from “Baker Street” by Gerry Rafferty (which is, contrary to Phil's opinion, rock music). This episode is the second time that Jake has given a free plug to Fort Point's Sfizio Italian Style Pilsner. The X-Men come up a couple of times in this episode, including when Jake speculates that– in light of Beth's pubic hair definitions– Beast is covered in pubic hair, because mutant powers manifest at puberty. Of course, Beast's full-body fur was part of a post-puberty secondary mutation, so Jake's wrong on this one. Chest hair-y men discussed include Burt Reynolds, Tom Selleck and Sam Elliot. Here's a bonus pic of young Sam Elliot from the Mission: Impossible TV show.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Why haven't we celebrated any major achievements lately?, published by jasoncrawford on the LessWrong. This is a linkpost for In reading stories of progress, one thing that has struck me was the wild, enthusiastic celebrations that accompanied some of them in the past. Read some of these stories; somehow it's hard for me to imagine similar jubilation happening today: The US transcontinental railroad, 1869 The transcontinental railroad was the first to link the US east and west. Prior to the railroad, to travel from coast to coast could take six months, whether by land or sea, and the journey was hard and perilous. California was like a foreign colony, separated from the life and industry of the East. The railroad changed that completely, taking a six-month journey down to a matter of days. Here's how the western cities reacted, from Stephen Ambrose's book Nothing Like It in the World: At 5 A.M. on Saturday, a Central Pacific train pulled into Sacramento carrying celebrants from Nevada, including firemen and a brass band. They got the festivities going by starting their parade. A brass cannon, the very one that had saluted the first shovelful of earth Leland Stanford had turned over for the beginning of the CP's construction six years earlier, boomed once again. The parade was mammoth. At its height, about 11 A.M. in Sacramento, the time the organizers had been told the joining of the rails would take place, twenty-three of the CP's locomotives, led by its first, the Governor Stanford, let loose a shriek of whistles that lasted for fifteen minutes. In San Francisco, the parade was the biggest held to date. At 11 A.M., a fifteen-inch Parrott rifled cannon at Fort Point, guarding the south shore of the Golden Gate, fired a salute. One hundred guns followed. Then fire bells, church bells, clock towers, machine shops, streamers, foundries, the U.S. Mint let go at full blast. The din lasted for an hour. In both cities, the celebration went on through Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. The Brooklyn Bridge, 1883 The Brooklyn Bridge did not connect a distance nearly as great as the transcontinental railroad, but it too was met with grand celebrations. An excerpt from David McCullough's The Great Bridge: When the Erie Canal was opened in the autumn of 1825, there were four former Presidents of the United States present in New York City for the occasion—John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe—as well as John Quincy Adams, then occupying the White House, and General Andrew Jackson, who would take his place. When the Brooklyn Bridge was opened on May 24, 1883, the main attraction was Chester A. Arthur. . Seth Low made the official greeting for the City of Brooklyn, the Marines presented arms, a signal flag was dropped nearby and instantly there was a crash of a gun from the Tennessee. Then the whole fleet commenced firing. Steam whistles on every tug, steamboat, ferry, every factory along the river, began to scream. More cannon boomed. Bells rang, people were cheering wildly on every side. The band played “Hail to the Chief” maybe six or seven more times, and as the New York Sun reported, “the climax of fourteen years' suspense seemed to have been reached, since the President of the United States of America had walked dry shod to Brooklyn from New York.” Not only did they celebrate, they analyzed and philosophized: What was it all about? What was everyone celebrating? The speakers of the day had a number of ideas. The bridge was a “wonder of Science,” an “astounding exhibition of the power of man to change the face of nature.” It was a monument to “enterprise, skill, faith, endurance.” It was also a monument to “public spirit,” “the moral qualities of the human soul,” and a great, everlasting symbol of “Peace.” The words used most often were “Science,” “Commerce,...

Ernie DeRaps at Monhegan Lighthouse in 2007. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. This is a special edition of Light Hearted, featuring an extended interview with a former lighthouse keeper. Ernie DeRaps, a native Mainer, spent several years in the 1950s and ‘60s as a Coast Guard lighthouse keeper at four Maine lighthouses – Monhegan, Fort Point, Heron Neck, and Browns Head. After retirement he took up painting at the age of 80. Ernie is now in his early 90s, and he has completed portraits of all 65 lighthouses on the Maine coast. A book by Ernie DeRaps and his wife, Pauline, was published by Foghorn Publishing in 2006. Ernie’s half of the book was called Lighthouse Keeping. If you turn the book over and upside down, the other half of the book, by Pauline Fitzgerald DeRaps, was called Light Housekeeping. Ernie and Pauline were married for 64 years and had six children. Pauline passed away in 2015 and is, of course, greatly missed, but Ernie is staying busy with his painting, as well as his children, nine grandchildren, and two great grandchildren. Ernie celebrates his 92nd birthday this month. L to R: Jeremy D'Entremont, Ernie DeRaps, Bob Trapani, Jr., in February 2019 Ernie's painting of Pemaquid Point Lighthouse The book Lighthouse Keeping / Light Housekeeping by Ernie and Pauline DeRaps is available from Foghorn Publishing. You can see some of Ernie’s paintings of Maine lighthouses at pigmentartstudio.com. You’ll see his Lighthouses of the Maine Coast series as well as some nature paintings and seascapes. Note from producer/host Jeremy D'Entremont: I visited Ernie DeRaps at his home in Richmond, Maine, last February. With me was my friend Bob Trapani, Jr., executive director of the American Lighthouse Foundation. Bob took part in the conversation with Ernie. The reason I waited until now to post this interview is that there was a problem with the sound. We recorded the conversation at Ernie’s kitchen table. As we spoke, Ernie kept tapping his fingers on the table. I was aware of it at the time, but I didn’t ask him to stop because I was afraid it might interrupt his thought process. I didn’t think the sound the tapping was making was very significant. It wasn’t until I listened to the recording later that I realized the tapping went right to the microphone stands and was recorded as a loud “boing” every time. For that reason, I shelved the interview for almost a year. But I recently listened to it again and I decided that it would be best to release it in spite of the problem. You can hear everything that’s said clearly, and Ernie’s great to listen to and I hated the thought of not using it because of a few little “boings.”

In this episode Owen drinks Fort Point beer (Rhiannon abstains!), we talk about some of the discussions that have been cropping up since the Archimedes ruling, what we'd like to see in new houses and the perfect cards for our kids.
This week we talk with Zach Page, Director of Brewing Operations at Lone Pine Brewing. Zach shares his story - from growing up in Indiana, leaving a PhD program at Brown to become the second employee of Trillium, and ultimately his decision to start fresh in Maine. We get tales from the early days of brewing at Fort Point and moving north to help Lone Pine navigate a huge expansion. We talk a lot about scaling production alongside company culture, a little about Zach's aggressive modesty, and just a touch about t-shirt cannons and unicorns.
Boston’s Fort Point is home to over 300 artists who produce work in a wide array of media. Jennifer Mecca, President of Fort Point Artist Community, discusses the huge changes this neighborhood has seen over the years. She shares how the artists’ community (one of New England’s largest) has evolved from being in “SOS” mode … Continue reading "Episode 81: Adapting to Change, Not Just Fighting It"
Today on Brew Ha Ha Steve Jaxon gets the whole story from Mark Carpenter about Anchor Brewing, its history and historical context, its production and its role in American brewing. (We were expecting guests from San Francisco’s Fort Point Beer Co. but they are stuck in traffic and will reschedule.) Mark Carpenter started working at Anchor Brewing in 1971 after he met its owner Fritz Maytag. Mark was looking for a more interesting and rewarding line of work and found that at Anchor. Mark retired a few years ago and Anchor's new brewmaster is Ramon Tamayo, who was also on the show recently. Right now, Mark is tasting a Shadow of a Doubt Imperial Porter from Russian River Brewing Co. It’s warm but it’s fine, Mark says that if a beer is good it should be good at room temperature too. "In warm countries they drink cold beer, in cold countries they drink warm beer." The beer is named after the Alfred Hitchcock film Shadow of a Doubt which was filmed in Santa Rosa in 1943. Mark talks about the Fort Point, an interesting brewery, says Mark. They do a Kölsch. All over Germany, the towns had their own styles of beer. Then Lager beer was invented and they all switched to that. But Kolsch is a surviving local beer from the city of Cologne (called Köln in German). An Imperial Porter means it's a black beer. Compared to a Stout, a Porter is sweeter. It also has nice flavors. "Imperial" means it is higher in alcohol, this is 10%. So without our expected guests, Steve invites Mark to tell the whole Anchor Brewing story which starts with what a city San Francisco was in the last 1960s. They were protesting the Vietnam War and there was an abundance of great music at venues like the Fillmore. Mark remembers the background of the city where people were looking for ways to do something more inspiring than his "normal" job. Mark would visit any American city and visit its breweries. He visited Coors in Colorado and Pabst in Wisconsin and took brewery tours. Steve is from Detroit and asks if Mark visited Stroh's there, but he hasn't. Stroh's called itself "fire brewed" which was a common European process in the late 1800s where beer was heated in copper kettles heated by fire, not steam. Mark says that steam applies less heat than a gas flame which gives some caramel color and flavor that steam does not. Stroh's was the only beer in America that was fire brewed. Stroh's today is owned by Pabst but it's not the same and is not fire brewed anymore. Mark always says he was lucky to get the job at Anchor. It was the smallest brewery in America at the time. They worked hard to build their reputation. Before they had volume sales, they only brewed once a month but sales steadily increased. Mark gives Fritz Maytag credit for having great business vision for the brewery, from the time he acquired it in 1965. Fritz had heard that the brewery would be closing and he went to visit it. He saw magic and potential and wound up buying it. He would say that he paid "less than you pay for a good car." It was a nineteenth century brewery. There was no refrigeration. It was a very crude little brewery and Fritz invested money into it. Fritz wanted to make sure that Anchor was known not just for Anchor Steam Beer. At first they had Anchor Steam Dark which simply had caramel coloring added. Fritz wanted to develop the Porter to replace that to do it right. They even started distilling in 1993.

Craft Beer News – 11/30/18MillerCoors, Pabst settle lawsuit over brewing contract•MillerCoors and Pabst Brewing settled a lawsuit Wednesday in which Pabst claimed the bigger brewer lied about its ability to continue brewing Pabst's beers to put that company out of business.•"We have reached an amicable settlement in the case and are pleased to resolve all outstanding issues with Pabst," MillerCoors said in a statement. Settlement details were not disclosed.•Since 1999, Chicago-based MillerCoors has made and shipped nearly all of Pabst's beers, which include Pabst Blue Ribbon, Old Milwaukee, Lone Star and Schlitz. Pabst's lawyers argued in the company's 2016 lawsuit that MillerCoors worried that Pabst would cut into its market share and devised a plan to stop brewing for the smaller competitor. MillerCoors' attorneys called Pabst's claim a conspiracy theory and said the company was simply deciding what makes economic sense.•The agreement between MillerCoors and Pabst, which was founded in Milwaukee in 1844 but is now headquartered in Los Angeles, expires in 2020 but provides for two possible five-year extensions. The companies disagreed on how the extensions were to be negotiated: MillerCoors argued it had sole discretion to determine whether it can continue brewing for Pabst, whereas Pabst said the companies must work "in good faith" to find a solution if Pabst wanted to extend the agreement but MillerCoors lacked capacity.•However, Pabst said internal documents from MillerCoors showed the company was worried about competition from Pabst and went as far as hiring a consultant to find a way to get out of the brewing agreement.•Pabst needs 4 million to 4.5 million barrels brewed annually and claims MillerCoors is its only option. Pabst's lawsuit sought more than $400 million in damages and a court order for MillerCoors to honor its contract.•MillerCoors and Anheuser-Busch, which have the biggest U.S. market share at 24.8 percent and 41.6 percent, respectively, have been losing business to smaller independent brewers, imports, and wine and spirits in recent years, according to the Brewers Association, a U.S.-based trade group. Overall U.S. beer sales have declined, with shipments down from 213.1 million barrels in 2008 to 204.2 million in 2017, according to the association.Trillium Labor Practices, Brewing Methods QuestionedMassachusetts craft beer maker Trillium Brewing Company’s labor practices and brewing methods are under scrutiny after accusations were lodged last week by a self-described former employee in an online beer forum.According to the former employee, who used the name “Abagofit” in a Beer Advocate forum, Trillium required its retail employees to reapply for jobs that they already held prior to last month’s opening of the company’s new brewery, taproom and restaurant in Boston’s Fort Point neighborhood. The ex-worker wrote that the base compensation for employees who had worked for more than three years at the brewery was cut from $8 an hour to $5 an hour to “work the exact same job across the street.”“We apologize that this has caused any of our employees, customers or friends to doubt, in any way, the integrity of Trillium or their ongoing support of us,” the company said. “We are fortunate that we’ve assembled such a talented team and remain committed to brewing exceptional beer that we can share with our family, friends, and customers.”Since the issues were raised last week, customers have left scathing comments on social media posts advertising new release beers priced at as much as $22.20 a 4-pack. One commenter shared a photoshopped label of Trillium’s “Cutting Tiles” double IPA with the name changed to “Cutting Wages.”Staff pay wasn’t the only issue raised in the Beer Advocate forum. The former employee also accused Trillium of cutting corners in the brewing process, including pouring tequila into kegs of a beer and promoting the beer as being barrel-aged to consumers. The commenter also claimed that management instructed workers to lie to customers about the beer’s origins and later tell consumers that the tequila flavor was “brewers magic.”“They straight up dumped tequila into the kegs,” the commenter wrote. “I’m no lawyer, but I know that is illegal.”Trillium has yet to address those allegations.People Moves: Ex-New Belgium Brewmaster Joins Melvin’s BoardMelvin Brewing Adds Peter Bouckaert to BoardFormer New Belgium brewmaster Peter Bouckaert has joined Wyoming-based Melvin Brewing’s board of directors, according to Forbes.Bouckaert — who left New Belgium after more than two decades to join Purpose Brewing and Cellars last May — told the outlet that he approached Melvin founder Jeremy Tofte at the 2018 Great American Beer Festival to discuss the company’s growth and to learn about its response to allegations that an employee had groped a server at another brewery in Bellingham, Washington, earlier this year. That employee — who was suspended, sent to sexual harassment training and given drug addiction treatment — is no longer with the company.Bouckaert’s addition to Melvin’s board follows the exit of sales director Ted Whitney, who departed the fast-growing Wyoming craft brewery for a similar sales role with Nug, a California-based cannabis company that sells edibles, flowers, concentrates, seeds and more.As US Beer Shipments Decline, Off-Premise Sales Remain FlatShipments of domestically brewed beer are down about 2.9 percent, according to the Beer Institute, but year-to-date volume sales at off-premise retailers are still basically flat.Dwindling sales of domestic premium beers drove much of the declines, as volume sales of those products were down 5 percent during the period.Picking up some of that lost volume were imported beers. Despite modest growth for the craft category as a whole, volume sales for some of the country’s largest craft breweries – including New Belgium, Gambrinus, Craft Brew Alliance and Deschutes – were all in decline during the period.Nevertheless, other top-ranked craft beer companies are bucking category-wide trends. Founders Brewing, Stone Brewing, Canarchy Craft Brewery Collective, Firestone Walker, Dogfish Head and New Glarus Brewing were all up double-digits.Among craft beer styles, IPAs are still the largest product type in the category, with dollar sales up 12.8 percent.Sales of craft golden ales and “other pale lagers” are also still on the rise – both categories were up 13.5 percent and 52.9 percent, albeit on smaller volume bases.Stories courtesy of Brewbound (https://www.brewbound.com/) and CNBC (https://www.cnbc.com/Subscribe to Craft Beer Storm Podcast iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/craft-beer-storm/id1438117278?mt=2Michael Potorti is the Host of Craft Beer Storm and Founder/Brewer at Beara Brewing Co. in Portsmouth, NHMichael PotortiFounder/BrewerHost of "Craft Beer Storm" Podcastmichael@craftbeerstorm.commichael@bearairishbrew.com*** Come visit our brewery for some delicious local craft brew! ***Beara Brewing Co.2800 Lafayette RoadPortsmouth, NH 03801Tel.

Episode 14 – 6/22/17 Segments this week include Wips, Knitting Fail, Out and About, On the Run, In the Garden Recording late this week because family was up visiting. Wips Lots and lots! Had car trouble and a few doctor’s appointments which means I had some extra knitting time. Hitchhiker 1 – green Valley Yarns Greylock, 100% cashmere. About 85% complete. Can’t work a full point with the cashmere because it’s getting wider with each point, but getting a little done every day Hitchhiker 4 – purple Cascade Ultra Pima Fine 100% cotton about 25% complete. Bringing this one as purse knitting – even knitting on an exercise bike while warming up at physical therapy Stella Maris Shawl – gradient kit from Birdie’s Knits in the Ocean View colorway. Reached Chart 4 and color 6 of 8. Might not run out of yarn after all! 2nd Hamilknit Hat – husband’s coworker asked me to knit her one after seeing mine. She is lovely and knitworthy, so I’m about 40% done with it. And – bonus – I brought it into to Boston last Friday and she tried it on and it fit well! More on Boston later. Mommy’s Tunic – I started the cable band weeks ago but put it down to get other stuff done. Picked it up again this week and am about 75% done. Planning on finishing it tomorrow and picking up stitches for the bodice this weekend. Knitting Fail Twice in the last week I’ve had to unravel/frog the Stella Maris shawl. First time was last Saturday at knitting group. I dropped a stitch while chating with a former Nashville resident about my upcoming SSK trip and didn’t notice until the next row. Had to frog 3 rows. Got that back, was on the next-to-last row of Chart 4 and realized I’d dropped a stitch the row before. I spent 30 minutes trying to re-work it without frogging, because my last lifeline was the end of Chart 3. But no. Couldn’t quite do it. So I frogged rows 82-92. Argh! I’m back up to row 87 now and since the rows are so big I’m putting a lifeline in after every other RS row. I am not frogging 10 rows again – especially when there are only 98 rows, I was SOOOOOO close to finishing! Out and About Sail Boston! We went into Boston last Friday and saw many of the tall ships in town for the Sail Boston event. We started at the Aquarium (had to sneak in one last visit before our membership expired), visited my husband at his office, then walked the waterfront to see all the ships in South Boston. We even walked all the way to the huge Navy ship at Fort Point – if you know Boston, the USS Whidby Island was at the point north east of the cruise ship terminal. Yeah, my feet hurt a lot after all those miles. And yes, my PT wasn’t terribly thrilled with me. Upcoming events: I’ll be heading to Cape Cod to visit my parents for the 4th of July and checking out one of my favorite knitting stores, A Great Yarn in Chatham MA. It’s actually a yarn shop and book store. Be still my beating heart, it’s a perfect combination! I’ll be attending SSK retreat by The Knit Girllls in Nashville, TN July 20-23. Very excited! I’ve never been to a knitting retreat before and I am seriously looking forward to some relaxation, classes with Ann Budd and Lee Meredith, and lots of knitting and barbecue. In August I’ll be heading up to Nova Scotia, Canada to visit family. My Great Aunt is 103 and we haven’t been up to visit since she turned 100. Definitely time to go back and introduce Thing 2 to his cousins. On the Run I walked at least 7 miles in Boston last Friday, much to my physical therapist’s chagrin. But it did give us some important info. I’ve been an extreme overpronator my whole life, which means when I walk my ankles roll inward. With all the extra mobility and strengthening I suddenly found myself supinating – or having my ankles roll outward! So I’m testing walking around without my orthotic inserts and so far so good. Keep your fingers crossed. I would be so happy to be able to buy shoes and not worry about inserts any more. In the Garden Our first berries have ripened! We had about a dozen gooseberries. If you’ve never had a gooseberry, they’re hard to explain. They’re round and sort of greenish purple and make GREAT jam because they’re super sour. Eating them raw is an acquired taste but I grew up eating them at my grandparent’s place up in Nova Scotia. Homemade gooseberry jam is amazing. Our blueberries are getting close to ripening and we have tons of tiny raspberries on our bushes. After the drought of the past 2 years it is so nice to have a glut of berries again. Tomato plants on the deck have literally doubled in size this week what with all the sun. Maybe we’ll finally get some veggie garden crops soon too – all the cold rain last month stunted everything.

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, Louis DiBiccari grew up in a suburb of Boston, cooking Sunday suppers as all good Italians do. Upon eating in campus dining halls during college, Louis realized how spoiled he was by his family's scratch cooking, so he taught himself how to cook. His signature dish: calzones. He then went to culinary school, eventually working at the Millennium Bostonian Hotel, which launched the careers of such Beantown chef legends as Lydia Shire, Jasper White, Jody Adams, and Todd English. Louis himself became a personality in town, with his Iron Chef inspired “Chef Louie Nights”, where guests would vote on dinner themes and ingredients to be revealed the morning of, in preparation for 5-course meal that night. But maybe even more so than food, it was the artists in his life, starting with his Uncle Adio, a master sculptor, that added another creative POV. In 2013, Louis opened Tavern Road in the Fort Point area, which he lived in during early aughts, and was surrounded by artist studios. This is why he began CREATE BOSTON, an annual event that brings together “6 artists, 6 chefs, 1 canvas” to bridge gap between visual and culinary arts, of which he still cooks at it's epicenter. This program was brought to you by Edwards Ham. “Chefs work with one side of their brain and artists work with a similar side…when you put them together they both start to think differently.” [21:00] “These guys are ready to push envelopes [Artists working with chefs]” [23:00] — Louis DiBiccari on The Food Seen
Once a week, local comedian Kenice Mobley explores a part of Boston with a guest. This week. Kenice joins Sherard Harrington for a walk around Rowe's Wharf and Fan's Pier. They try to avoid getting lost in what could be Fort Point, Southie, or Waterfront?
On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, Chef Jeremy Sewall retraces his New England roots, from Samuel Sewall at the Salem Witch Trials, to generations of fishermen in Maine, like his Cousin Mark who supplies his restaurants of all their lobster. The name of his first restaurant couldn't be more apropos, as Lineage literally sit a block away from Sewall Ave in Brookline MA. What Jeremy's done with his fresh perspective for a regional cuisine oft relying heavily on historical dishes from the Puritans, is anew in The New England Kitchen (cookbook). He celebrates a contemporary cast of farmers and thinkers, from Skip & Shore of Island Creek Oysters, his co-collaborators from Island Creek Oyster Bar , to his newest Fort Point oyster bar, Row 34, which pours Maine Beer Company brews. What's not lost is Jeremy's sense of place. He still holds Boston's past (and the Red Sox) near and dear to his heart. This program was brought to you by Whole Foods Market. “What I'm proudest of in Lineage is that it's truly a neighborhood restaurant.” [16:00] “Fall has this great feeling of relief. The summer's over, the leaves are changing and that kind of dictates how you cook and how you eat. You start to crave things that are warming and hearty.” [27:00] –Jeremy Sewall on The Food Seen
This Educator Guide accompanies the video "In the Gallery with Stephanie Syjcuo" from KQED. In celebration of the Golden Gate Bridgeʹs 75th anniversary, local artist Stephanie Syjuco built an expansive shop in a monochrome palette: the memorable orange hue of the Golden Gate Bridge. Working with the same paint used to keep the bridge looking fresh, Syjucoʹs installation for the International Orange exhibition at Fort Point features all things reddish‐orange: teacups, jewelry, postcards, and tchotchkes. Introduce your students to Stephanie and her project in our video, "In the Studio with Stephanie Syjuco"
