Here are a couple of ladies who span generations and genres. They can rock, swing, and croon like nobody's business, and are renown for their independence. Wanda Jackson is a founding mother of Rockabilly and still partying at 88; She started recording in 1954, and just recently retired. Although she forged the magical fusion elixir that we call Rockabilly, she has also scored hits in the Gospel and Country genres. Sarah Jarosz, 50+ years younger, studied at the New England Conservatory of Music, but remains pure Texas, like Nanci Griffith or Lyle Lovett - indie Americana artists who fuse country with jazz in an irresistible freshness. She has stated that she relishes expansion, collaboration, and experimentation, with a goal toward “honoring the song” and bringing it to life in the most exciting way possible. Both women are accomplished songwriters as well as vocal interpreters, but today we feature them in the latter position - Wanda, from 1962, keens the vertiginous “Whirlpool”, by Fred Burch and Marijohn Wilken, and Sarah crushes Tom Wait's “Come on Up to the House” with a  funky mandolin.SARAH JAROSZI first heard Sarah Jarosz about 10 years ago on Garrison Keillor's radio show, and was smitten immediately. Her tender, and at the same time fluid voice and funky mandolin charms completely - reminding me of the great John Hartford and how he transformed bluegrass to Newgrass.  She continued after Garrison left with successor Chris Thile, teaming up with Sarah Watkins, another star from that ensemble, and Aoife O'Donovan to form the trio I'm With Her. At 34, no longer a prodigy, she has become a contemporary bluegrass goddess, who keeps expanding her range. Here she essays Tom Wait's Come on up to the House, in which she manages to combine spirituality with sex appeal - brilliant. WANDA JACKSONWhirlpool is like a psychedelic Torch Song. Uncharacteristically, Wanda takes the role of a vulnerable, love damaged damsel instead of the Take No Prisoners, kick-ass Rocker she usually projects. Released on Capitol Records and produced by their A&R exec, Ken Nelson, this cut obviously is swinging for the bleachers of commercial Country appeal, but its weirdness kept it from charting. However, it remains a monument to her range and dramatic power. 

The former child actor who once worked with Jack Benny, and who later became the voice of many of the most popular characters on The Simpsons, also proved to wield a potent sword of satire.

Song: In This House Music by: Karisha Longaker of MaMuse   Notes: Today we get “right in the river, totally listening, totally all in” with MaMuse, the duo of Sorah Nutting and Karisha Longaker, whose description of songcatching is what I just quoted. I came out of our conversation thinking about so many things -- how we see and appreciate those we love, kindness as our common wealth, danceable songs, being led by feeling and what's insanely fun, and especially house rules for how we be in the world... which comes from "In This House." I was singing harmony with them by the time we sang the song the second time, so you'll hear me making stuff up... partly because of the big, beautiful permission Karisha and Sorah give each other and us to celebrate creativity. I hope you feel that extra space and encouragement, too, after you sing with us!   Songwriter Info: MaMuse (“Ma” as in Mamma; “Muse” as in the one who inspires) was born out of a collaboration between songwriters Karisha Longaker and Sorah Nutting. 2008 was a year of great alchemy. Fires erupted in Northern California, a great wind of inspiration blew through, catalyzing a series of songs written from the soil and rivers, ash and heat of Chico where these two musicians met. In the early days these troubadours toted instruments around town by bicycle and shared their songs at farmers markets, community gatherings, small cafes and festivals. Not too long after, these two voices became iconic to the Chico community, representing idyllic values of friendship, community, love for nature and care for Self and World. The love spread, sisterhood held strong through two decades of LIFE: children, relationships arriving and dissolving, making home in many new places.  MaMuse songs such as “We Shall Be Known” and “Hallelujah” have sprouted wings and are now sung at the bed sides of birthing mothers, round campfires, at weddings and funerals... All places where people are gathered to celebrate and to mourn. These are songs born of the Folk lineage; songs for all of us.   Sharing Info: The song is free to share but Karisha and Sorah always welcome financial and/or networking support if/when folks are so moved.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:03:56 Start time of reprise: 01:03:15   Links: Show info, bookings and newsletter signup: www.mamuse.org  Instagram: www.instagram.com/mamusemusic  Facebook: www.facebook.com/MaMuseMusic  Patreon: www.patreon.com/mamuse Download and contribute to recorded music funds: mamuse.bandcamp.com  Song Village in Santa Cruz: https://www.songvillage.net/  Kirtan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirtan  ReMuse: https://mamuse.bandcamp.com/album/remuse  Patrick/FunkPharm who produced ReMuse: https://www.instagram.com/funkpharm/  Tidal as a subscription platform: https://tidal.com/  Community Choir Leadership Training in Canada: https://www.communitychoirleadership.com/  Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion duet competition October 2012: https://www.prairiehome.org/shows/47951.html  Arnaé Batson: https://www.eomega.org/people/arnae-batson  Scott Elliot Ferreter (guitar and bass): https://www.scottelliottferreter.com/  Trying Time album: https://open.spotify.com/album/3BSIiZwg5MdqY6OuVLRMdR  Nathan Dittle (keyboard/piano): https://www.instagram.com/redbeardthecat/  Songs in the Key of Life by Stevie Wonder: https://open.spotify.com/album/6YUCc2RiXcEKS9ibuZxjt0  Blue by Joni Mitchell: https://open.spotify.com/album/1vz94WpXDVYIEGja8cjFNa  Aimée Ringle – Human and Tender: https://aimeeringle.bandcamp.com/album/human-and-tender  A Breath of Song conversation with Aimée Ringle: https://www.abreathofsong.com/episodes--show-notes/160-o-spirit-guide-me-to-those-i-need-with-guest-aimee-ringle#/  Melanie DeMore: https://melaniedemore.com/  A Breath of Song conversation with Melanie DeMore: https://www.abreathofsong.com/episodes--show-notes/175-one-footlead-with-love-with-guest-melanie-demore#/    Nuts & Bolts: 4:4, major, harmonized, call and echo   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?

Pamela Morsi's books were different than the typical historical romance of the time. Writing stories set in rural America, with poor or working class characters, Morsi was hailed as the “the Garrison Keillor of romance fiction,” by Publishers Weekly. When demand for the Americana subgenre waned after 2000, Morsi switched over to contemporary romance and women's fiction with 2002's Doing Good. She continued to write through 2014, publishing 29 books in her long career. She died this past December. Garters, published in 1993, is one of Morsi's most beloved books. Following Esme Crab, a poor hill girl who wants to marry up, and Cleavis Rhy, a storeowner with aspirations of being a gentleman, Garters is an unusual tale about class, love, and ambition that is goofy, tender, and at times heartbreaking.Support us on our Patreon!Visit our website for transcripts and show notes: reformedrakes.comFollow us on social media:Twitter: @reformedrakesInstagram: @reformedrakesBluesky: @reformedrakesBeth's SubstackChels' SubstackEmma's SubstackThank you for listening!

Garrison Keillor is still performing, even as he turns 83 this week. He sat down with This Is Nashville in the greenroom at City Winery before his performance in June because this city was central to his creation of "A Prairie Home Companion," which launched 50 years ago. For a long time, it was one of the biggest things in public radio. He now calls leaving the show a mistake. He'll explain. And if you're thinking, “didn't he have a #MeToo moment?” Yes, we get some rather candid answers plus some wisdom only an octogenarian could offer. This episode was produced by Blake Farmer.Relevant reading: The New Yorker (1974): Onward and Upward with the Arts at the Opry USA Today (2016): Garrison Keillor leaves his 'Prairie Home' after 42 years MPR News (2018): For some who lived in it, Keillor's world wasn't funny

My parents were daily drinkers and secular humanists who raised me in Hawaii with Carl Sagan, PBS, and an FM radio dialed to All Things Considered. Garrison Keillor. Click and Clack. Terry Gross. Diane Rehm. Kojo Nnamdi. This wasn't politics—it was affection. NPR was calm, elite, literary, but with warmth. A sherry-glass liberalism. A voice that loved America while nudging it gently forward.For decades I was the cliché NPR listener. WAMU 88.5 was always on. I attended events. I gave money. I listened from sunup to sundown. Even when I moved to Berlin from 2007–2010, I tuned into NPR Berlin on 104.1 FM—the only place in Europe where you could still hear that comforting cadence.NPR didn't just report the world. It modeled how to be in it. It embodied curiosity, restraint, and thoughtful compassion. Sure, it was Ivy League-adjacent, but it didn't perform its politics. It offered a kind of humanist moral imagination that didn't shout.But over the last decade, it began to shout.The slow turn started with Trump, but it accelerated under COVID. What once felt like public radio for the curious became a strategy hub for the perpetually aggrieved. On the Media went from fascinating to hectoring. 1A became sanctimonious. The programming seemed less about informing the public than scolding the noncompliant.It wasn't just the politics. NPR has always leaned left, and I've always been fine with that. What changed was the tone. It stopped being about persuasion and started being about purity. I started waking up not to gentle reporting, but to emotionally loaded moral litmus tests disguised as headlines.And let me be clear: I was a lifer. I lived on Capitol Hill for nine years and in Arlington for 15. I studied American literature. I taught writing. I read postwar fiction in Berlin. I've attended Big Broadcast tapings. I've seen Garrison Keillor and David Sedaris live. I once flirted with Diane Rehm on Twitter. I should have been locked in until death. But if you've lost me—you've lost the plot.I should've been paying a tithe to NPR and PBS for all 85 years of my life. Instead, I wake up listening to Your Morning Show with Mike DeGiorno, a warm, funny, right-leaning host who loves his audience and doesn't perform ideological trauma theater every five minutes. He makes me laugh. He reminds me more of old NPR than NPR does.And that's the saddest sentence I've ever written.Public media made a fatal gambit in 2016. They believed Trump was an aberration, a glitch, and if they could just signal hard enough—he'd vanish. But when he won again in 2024, after 34 felonies, after billions in judgments, after being called Hitler daily—they were shocked. Because they had stopped listening. They didn't realize his supporters saw the media itself as the enemy. That “they're not coming for me, they're coming for you” landed. That Trump, for many, isn't a savior but a middle finger.NPR had become Tokyo Rose, broadcasting at its own people from a bunker of moral superiority.Meanwhile, I'm streaming old Coast to Coast AM episodes. I watch Gutfeld!, not because it's smart but because it's stupid in the way old late night used to be. Colbert? I was a disciple. But since COVID, he's turned into a high priest of performative grievance. I can't even watch him interview celebrities anymore. If I want celebrity joy, I turn to The Graham Norton Show—where nobody cries about the state of the world before asking about someone's rom-com.Even The Daily Show knows what it has become. They joke about “TDS”—Trump Derangement Syndrome—because they know. It's not satire anymore. It's affirmation.What I miss is what radio used to be. Sweet. Surprising. Curious. Gently skeptical. What it did best was model how to be open in a closed, chaotic world. And now that voice is gone.I miss the voice in my kitchen.And I'm still grieving.

I received a letter a few weeks back from a woman who found an old copy of one of my most popular books, Radical Homemakers, in her public library.  “I want to become someone I believe in,” she wrote to me.  And she wanted to know how my beliefs and research have framed my life, and how my views may have changed since writing that book. It's taken me a while to think of how to respond. On any given day, I found that I had a different answer.  How would any of us tackle that question: Have I lived my life as someone I can believe in?I'm Shannon Hayes, and you're listening to Season 6, Episode 12 of The Hearth of Sap Bush Hollow.  For a text copy of this essay, visit The Radical Homemaker Blog at SapBushFarmStore.comSupport the show

On this inspiring episode of the Mastery Unleashed podcast, host Christie Ruffino welcomes Julie Caprera, a dynamic published author and homeschooling advocate, to share her transformative journey into home education. Julie recounts how her initial skepticism about homeschooling evolved into a passionate mission after meeting Christy at a conference. With Christy's unwavering support, Julie embraced a new path that led her to become a published author and empowered her to guide homeschool moms through the challenges of unconventional education.Drawing from her background as a critical care nurse and her personal experiences with her children's diverse learning needs—including those of special needs children—Julie explains that homeschooling isn't about replicating traditional classrooms at home. Instead, it's about nurturing independent thinkers and fostering a mindset that values flexibility, creativity, and real-world skills. She introduces her CARE framework—Create your vision, Assess your variables, Restructure your schedule, Evaluate, and Encourage—to help parents navigate the journey with clarity and confidence. Julie's heartfelt story and practical advice underscore the rewards of a debt-free, personalized education that equips children with essential life skills, making her a motivational and actionable message. ABOUT JULIEJulie Caprera didn't expect to be a pioneer. In her early years, her Norwegian Lutheran family echoed Lake Wobegon of Garrison Keillor fame. Her father went to work for the Apollo space program, moving the family to Cocoa Beach, FL. Life is bathing suits, T-shirts, and flip-flops when one lives six blocks from the beach. Julie earned her BSN at Florida State University. Being a member of the FSU Student Circus was great therapy during nursing school. Next came 15 years as a critical care nurse. Marrying Rob Caprera brought Julie to Massachusetts, which was quite a culture shock after Florida.As new parents in the 1980s, Julie and Rob became pioneers in the emerging world of homeschooling. They didn't plan to be so out of the box, but doors kept opening. Life became an adventure of learning opportunities. Pioneers try new things to find the best match. For the Capreras, homeschooling included lots of national and international travel. Julie's search for personal mentors led her to help new homeschooling families. Helping others became the Capreras' passion over the next three decades. Julie and Rob served over two decades on the MassHOPE Board of Directors. Julie was also a regular homeschool conference speaker. An unexpected turn came when Rob's mother moved in with them due to her Alzheimer's. Homeschooling continued as they pioneered multi-generational living. For eight and a half years, Julie served as primary caregiver. A side benefit of homeschooling has been studying art and working in oils and acrylics.To better mentor more moms, Julie became a student. She then entered the world of online entrepreneurship. A recent out-of-the-box challenge was completing 75 HARD on her first attempt. Connect with Julie at www.CAREhomeschool.com.

Send us a textIn this timely and special episode of The Beached White Male Podcast, host Ken Kemp welcomes back his trusted friend and guest, Betsey Newenhuyse, for a deep dive into the emotional and spiritual challenges of our current political climate. As the nation grapples with division and uncertainty, Ken and Betsey explore how faith, friendship, and personal reflection can serve as vital coping mechanisms.Their conversation is framed by two compelling pieces of writing: an essay by the celebrated storyteller Garrison Keillor and Katherine Stewart's powerful new book, Money, Lies, and God: Inside the Movement to Destroy American Democracy. Keillor's reflections on friendship, place, worship, and prayer provide a sense of comfort and nostalgia—reminding us of the grounding forces in our lives that help us weather difficult times. Meanwhile, Stewart's investigative work exposes the dangerous political forces seeking to manipulate faith for power, offering a sobering counterpoint to the more personal and spiritual aspects of the discussion.Ken and Betsey reflect on the tension between these two perspectives—the solace found in spiritual traditions versus the urgent need to confront political realities that threaten democratic values. Through honest conversation, they explore how people of conscience can stay engaged without losing hope, how faith communities can be both a refuge and a call to action, and how, even in the midst of turmoil, we can still proclaim, “It is well with my soul.”The Three Tenors perform “It Is Well With My Soul” in Bath, EnglandBecome a Patron | Ken's Substack PageSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

Here's a sentence to read and ponder: the average Christian is…average! What's your immediate, visceral response to that? Is God measuring you at all as a believer…or does His grace remove any expectations of obedience for Christians? And, if and when God does measure His children, how and what does He measure? Our compliance with Mosaic Law? Our social action? Our making of disciples of Christ? Join Kevin as we make a direct, forthright, and bracing dive into the topic of “The Average Christian is…Average.” // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.

In Lake Wobegon it is a matter of pride if your car starts in cold weather, though people stretch the truth about it.Monday morning Lyle woke up feeling extra cold in his bedroom; there was a sheet of ice on the window and his water pipes were frozen. His car wouldn't start and he had the bright idea to light charcoal and place it under his engine. Well, the garage was saved but not the car. Lyle's brother-in-law, Carl, is the one that has the car that starts and is able to fix everything so it's embarrassing to make these mistakes, though he does know that Carl would be there in a moment if needed.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises! (Psalm 98:4). In this Adventures in Lutheranism episode, Rachel shares her recent experience joining a new-to-her church choir.   Beginning with a brief foray into the history of sacred choral music — from ancient Greece to Garrison Keillor and beyond — she then examines the physical and mental health benefits of singing in groups and ponders the long decline of church choirs (even as choral singing in general has been on the rise). She invites Sarah and Erin to relate their own experiences with church choirs before sharing her personal choral history up to the present day. At the end of the episode, she airs interviews with each of her four children, who confirm that church choir is absolutely for all ages.   Sources cited in this episode include:   Choir - Wikipedia  Why do Lutherans Sing?

Greetings, Bernard here! And today Magenta and I would like to introduce you to another wonderful show from the Fable & Folly podcast network. It's called Sorry About The Murder - or rather "SAWRY ABOOT THE MRRDRR EH!" Alright, I won't do any more Canadian accents from now on. Anyway, Sorry About The Murder is a very Canadian murder mystery podcast, set in the perfect little town of Beavermont Ontario. That's really all you need to know - it's a wonderful cosy black comedy of a show, with lovely writing and a colourful cast of characters.  It's a sort of Garrison Keillor-ish Murder She Wrote. What a joy.  And given that a lot of it takes place in an ice rink, because, you know, Canada, It's also full of brilliant kitsch organ music which greatly appeals to me. And for Brits like us, it's a very interesting insight into what these small Canadian towns are like. I mean, minus the murder. Presumably. I don't know, actually. I get the impression it's not that common. Anyway, Season 1 is complete and out now, and it's very short - 8 episodes, 10-15 minutes long - so you could kill the whole thing in one sitting over a delicious poutine and a bottle of Stubbies beer.  Sorry About The Murder is available wherever you get your podcasts. And here is episode 1, entitled BONJOUR, BEAVERMOUNT.

This week Justin sits down with Erica Rhodes ! Topics include: Lucky numbers, America's Got Talent, and Garrison Keillor!

Guest host David Horton of Radford University and Clay Jenkinson discuss the origins and varieties of satire. With its roots in the ancient world and particularly Rome, satire exists in two broad categories: genial, bemused satire, identified with the Roman poet Horace; and biting, severe, take-no-prisoners satire best represented by another Roman poet Juvenal. The discussion explores satire in American history; Thomas Jefferson's humorlessness and his immunity to satire; classical American satirists such as Mark Twain and Will Rogers; and satire of the modern age with Johnny Carson, Bill Maher, Stephen Colbert, and Garrison Keillor. David and Clay reflect on the silo effect and media echo chambers of our time, which have made it nearly impossible for all to meet in some form of the public square to laugh at human foibles and find ways to tolerate each other.
