POPULARITY
‘Aether' is the much-anticipated debut album of Forlorn, the ‘folk horror' band who blend expressionist art, crushing soundscapes and paganism to carve out their own brand of innovative alternative music. Throughout ‘Aether', Forlorn pay their respects to the major 'elements', acting as part of a progressing metal pagan ritual. The juxtaposition of ethereal vocals, with chaotic drums and crushing low-level guitars, paired with vocalist Megan Jenkin's brutal screams, bring together Forlorn's unique sound and visual identity. Their haunting live presence has also graced stages across the UK, alongside artists like Dying Wish, DESTRAGE, CRYPTA, Ithica, Devil Sold His Soul and URNE as well as festivals like at Radar Festival, Tech Fest and Collision Festival. Anyone who has seen Forlorn live can attest to the immersive experience it is, with us describing our first time seeing them in 2022 as: A 30-minute showcase of dreamy post-metal with the sharpness of hardcore, explosivity of metalcore and a touch of Midsommar-esqe eeriness. 2025 is looking to be the year they truly break out, and ‘Aether' will be released on March 28th, 2025, via Church Road Records. We spoke to vocalist Megan and guitarist Edd about the new album, and the journey that Forlorn has been on over the past few years. We also learn how Forlorn has slowly found its identity, taking that creativity to another level, expanding on it in both record and live form, and so much more.

Dr. Neil Lewis, Jr. was born in Jamaica and came to the United States as a kid. In this podcast, we discuss his academic and professional journey beginning from what originally sparked his interest in psychology including a demonstration by his high school economics teacher at Cornell University in Ithica, NY to what led him to the University of Michigan for his graduate degrees in social psychology leading to his dual appointment and recent promotion as Associate Professor at Cornell University and Weill Cornell Medicine. During our discussion, Dr. Lewis shares his experiences and advice with those interested in getting their graduate degree in the field of psychology and those wanting to stay in the academic field. Dr. Lewis is a behavioral scientist who has a dual appointment as Associate Professor of Communication and Social Behavior at Cornell University and Associate Professor of Communication Research in Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine. Dr. Lewis states, “the reason for the dual appointments, in this case, is I do a lot of health research including research on how the ways health clinics and health systems communicate information to patients affects the health behaviors the patients engage in and health outcomes.” So, in the Department of Communication, he is surrounded by communication scholars and other social scientists who are interested in the communication process. Then, in the Medical School, all of his colleagues are medical doctors who put these communication processes into practice. He believes “being in both worlds really allows me to get the broader set of perspectives that I need to have on health issues and that improves my ability to study those issues as well.” He also co-directs Cornell's Action Research Collaborative, an institutional hub that brings together researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and community members to collaborate on projects and initiatives to address important equity issues in society. Dr. Lewis received the Early Career Scholar Award from the International Communication Association, the Janet Taylor Spence Award for Transformative Early Career Contributions from the Association for Psychological Science, and Cornell's Research and Extension Award for Outstanding Accomplishments in Science and Public Policy. Outside of academia, Thinkers50 and Deloitte identified Dr. Lewis as one of the 30 up-and-coming thinkers whose ideas will shape management in the coming years due to his contributions to work motivation and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Dr. Lewis's interest in psychology actually stemmed from a great high school economics teacher who sparked his interest in economics through his teachings and demonstrations. Dr. Lewis thought that an economics degree was a “practical degree to get…to be employable at the end of my undergraduate journey…but the most interesting part of economics for me were the parts that were fundamentally psychological.” For example, he recalls a demonstration in which the professor took out a $20 bill and a $1 bill and ripped both of them in half. When the professor asked the students to reflect on their reaction and explain why they were more upset about the $20 bill being torn in half than the $1 bill being torn in half, they replied that one was worth more than the other even though both were made of the same pieces of paper and used the same kind of ink. Dr. Lewis realized that as long as we share a collective belief, then that belief becomes part of our reality. He recalls, “I kept thinking about how much of these systems that govern our social world depend on people's beliefs in those systems.” Dr. Lewis adds, “And, of course, the discipline that was really established to study belief systems and other thoughts and behaviors is psychology. And so that's one of the reasons I ended up pivoting from economics to psychology.” When discussing his graduate school opportunities and choices, Dr. Lewis states,
What makes Sour Rot so challenging for wine grape growers is that it is a disease complex. Hans C. Walter-Peterson, Viticulture Extension Specialist, Finger Lakes Grape Program, Cornell Cooperative Extension explains that Sour Rot comes in late season after ripening. Yeasts get into the berries and ferment the sugar out in the vineyard. Bacteria follow up, feasting on the alcohol, converting it into acetic acid – an unwelcome component in winemaking. And, the disease is spread rapidly by fruit flies. In this interview Hans shares methods to reduce Sour Rot disease pressure by managing increasingly resistant fruit fly populations, leafing to encourage fewer berries at fruit set, the correct way to drop fruit, and timing antimicrobial and insecticide sprays to Brix to maximize effectiveness. Cornell Cooperative Extension is trialing non-chemical control practices including UV light for sterilization and hormonal sprays plus a disease model is under development with Penn State University.

He is a viticulture extension specialists with the Finger Lakes Grape Program, part of Cornell Cooperative Extension. Thanks for being our guest today. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 0:12 Thanks for having me. Glad to be here. Craig Macmillan 0:14 You've been doing a lot of work on a situation I'll call it called Sour Rot on grapes. And that's what we're gonna talk about today. Let's start with some basic definitions. What exactly is Sour Rot? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 0:24 So sour rot is pretty much what it sounds like. It's one of the late season rots that can afflict grapes comes in after ripening starts so much like Botrytis, bunch rot some of these other types of rots that that growers might be familiar with. So it's another version of that, but it comes along with the bonus of acetic acid, every rot kind of brings its own different compounds to the party. Sour rot brings one that really is not terribly welcome in winemaking, you know, essentially the the main component of vinegar. It's a particularly rough type of rot. We really are getting some more challenging years with it past several years. So my program has really started to focus in on what we can do to try to keep it under control. Craig Macmillan 1:09 You know, I understand that part of the issue here. Is that sour rot is a disease complex. There's multiple actors involved in all of this. Can you tell us what some of those pieces are of that complex and how they interact to create sour rot? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 1:23 Yeah, it's probably the thing that makes sour rot a more difficult thing to manage than kind of the standard diseases, the regular diseases that most growers are used to dealing with like powdery mildew, downy mildew, because those are created those are developed by one type of microbe. So if you find the one thing that can control that one microbe, you've got a control measure. With sour rot it's a like you said it's a complex of multiple organisms that bring it about. So basically, there are yeasts, the yeasts get into the berries and take the sugar that's being developed in there, and they do exactly what we use yest for in winemaking takes the sugar and turns it into alcohol. So we'd get a fermentation starting within the berries out in the vineyard. The second part of it that happens then is that there are bacteria that follow up and also arrive in there most notably Acetobacter, but also some other things like Gluconobacter and Henseniaspora. This is some great work that was done by Wendy McFadden-Smith in Ontario a number of years ago. So they all kind of come in and feast on that alcohol and convert that alcohol into acetic acid. So thereby there's the sour of sour rot. The piece that comes after that, then is not just the sour rot. But then the thing that probably is really characteristic of it also, as with some of these other rots, but it spreads really quickly in a vineyard if the conditions are right. And that's mainly done by fruit flies. And it's not just the one that we've been hearing a lot about lately, the Spotted Wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii but it's also just your plain old Drosophila melanogaster, the ones you used in your your high school genetics classes, or college genetic classes and see on your fruit around the sink and stuff like that. Those fruit flies, for the most part, mostly fruit flies are a couple of other suspects in the mix, too. But they're the ones that spread it from berry to berry and cluster to cluster and block the block. Craig Macmillan 3:13 Are they spreading the yeast, the bacteria are both. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 3:16 All of the above. Craig Macmillan 3:17 Okay, so that's it, Hans C. Walter-Peterson 3:18 They're gonna freeride. So that's, that's the difficulty with it. If it was just, you know, like I was saying earlier, if it's something like black rot, or botrytis, where it's just one single causal organism, that's one story. And that's hard enough to control when you've got multiple types of organisms that aren't even directly related. I mean, yeast and bacteria are very different types of organisms, for example, we don't have a spray or a single thing that control that. And so that's the real difficulty with managing it year in and year out. Craig Macmillan 3:48 So this just made me think of something. One way of thinking about disease complexes is if I can remove one of the elements, or two of the elements I can at least reduce if not prevent or treat the disease is that the case with sour rot if I had no bacteria, if I didn't have a yeast or something like that, can I get rid of one of them and and help with this? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 4:09 Yeah, that's that's a really good point. As I said earlier, you need the two micro organisms to cause the sour of the sour at the acetic acid development, but then you need a vector to move them through the vineyard. And that's the fruit flies. So if you can control the fruit flies, you have less chance for those microorganisms to move through the vineyard. If you create a less hospitable host for the microbes, there's less of them to be moved around by the fruit flies. So the management strategies that we're looking at are trying to come at it from both directions. Some of the original work that was done on this recently here at Cornell by a grad student, Dr. Megan Hall, who I believe you had on the show a while back. Craig Macmillan 4:50 I had in the show, and I know her yes. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 4:53 In Megan's original work here at Cornell. She basically found that it was somewhat more effective to control the fruit flies than to control the microbes that just the microbes by themselves could cause a certain amount of rot. But then if you're controlling the fruit flies, it just you don't get that explosive growth. Craig Macmillan 5:10 The fruit flies in the gasoline. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 5:12 Right. Exactly. Yeah. The microbes are the fuel. Yes. So that was the impetus of kind of saying, Okay, if you had a control just one thing, it's the fruit flies, because that's really where the explosive nature of the disease comes along. And it's a little bit easier to control a bug than it is microbes that are hiding inside the skins of berries and things like that. Craig Macmillan 5:31 Where do the microbes come from? are they hanging out under the bark of the vine? Are they inside of shoots? Are they out in the environment and get blown on? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 5:43 They're pretty ubiquitous in the environment, talk about a lot about Native fermentations and yeast coming in from the vineyard. So there's so they're there. And the bacteria are as well, I don't know, it's some of the exact overwintering mechanisms. And if we know all about that, somebody probably does, I just don't, but it's my understanding is they're they're pretty native in our neck of the woods. They just, they're they're pretty much all the time. Craig Macmillan 6:05 Are there environmental conditions that are particularly conducive to promoting Sour Rot. And then also are there environmental conditions that will prevent it or retard it? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 6:16 So the big thing that gets sour rot going is for some way for the microbes to get into the berries in the first place. Predominantly in grapes, we think about that as either being insects, birds, or water. Here in the east, obviously, we get rain throughout the growing season, including during the harvest season, we have high humidity days, plenty of times. And so those are the kinds of conditions where we see greater incidence of sour rot develop. When the vines take up water, or the berries take up water either through rainfall or just the atmosphere, and then the berries swell up, they can't handle all the water they have and they split or you have a very tight clustered variety, that just the berries start getting forced apart, and they just break by force. So those entry wounds however they're caused, is how it gets started. So we know here in New York that if we have a dry fall days, with not many days with dew points above 70, and all those kinds of things, we don't see very much sour rot develop, we might see a little Botrytis here and there. But for the most part, we don't see it. And a lot of that is because we just don't have the humidity to kind of build up the water in the berry to cause it split the years where we have it bad. On the contrary, that's that's when we see more water, more rainfall, more high humidity days, that's when we see more splitting and therefore more sour rot. Much like most other diseases, the warmer it gets, the faster it can progress. And the same thing with insects, the fruit flies at a at a lower temperature. It takes them longer for a next generation to develop. And so the warmer it gets, they get faster too. So yeah, so warm and wet. Craig Macmillan 7:55 So cool and dry would be the opposite would be the desirable. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 7:59 So that would be best. Craig Macmillan 8:01 That actually that just reminded me of something. My experience has all been on the Central Coast California. This only happened once. And that was with some Pinot Noir that came in that had quite a lot of Botrytis damage. And the winemaker had us go through and sort then not simply sort out Botrytis and throw it away, but by hand sorted and then smell it for sour is something like Botrytis or a scar from powdery mildew or something like that. Is that Is that also a possible entry for the organisms? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 8:33 Yes, very often we see Botrytis and sow rot in the same cluster. Because it's the same thing. Botrytis is a very weak pathogen, it needs a place to kind of get established like a wound. And so same thing with sour rot. We do know that, like you're just saying powdery mildew scars can create micro fissures in the skin. And later on in the season, those can start to tear apart even if you can't see them, especially around the pedicel near the stem where the stem connects to the berry. They're going to be micro fissures that those micro organisms can take advantage of as well. So those conditions are pretty similar for for other kinds of rots as well. Craig Macmillan 9:11 Are there cultural practices or preventative or prophylactic practices that growers can use that might help manage this? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 9:17 Yes, probably the biggest one that we know of and we're trying to get a little bit better handle on as far as how to use it for this purpose. So we know that if you pull leaves before bloom are right at the very beginning of bloom, you will reduce berry set you basically kind of starve the the clusters, the flowering clusters of carbohydrates and other nutrients and so they don't set as many berries. You have a looser cluster. Those clusters don't swell up they don't like I was talking before kind of force berries off, they dry out faster. All the good things we like about looser clusters pulling leaves at that very early, just pre bloom or very early bloom stage can reduce berries set pretty consistently year in and year out. out and help to reduce that cluster compactness aspect of rot development. Craig Macmillan 10:05 I think it's the first time I've ever heard of a intentional shatter. Usually we're all we're all praying that we don't have what you're describing. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 10:14 Yeah. Well, I mean, you think about table grape growers do this fairly often, they try to make more room on the cluster so that they can have larger berries, which consumers want. And so we're not worried about it. obviously, for consumer sentiment, we're worried about that for disease pressure, there's definitely a cost to it. You're reducing your yield as a grower from the standpoint of just how many grapes you're going to carry. But you also might be saving more yield later on in the year and not having to drop fruit before you send it off to the winery Craig Macmillan 10:40 In your area. You've got wine grapes, obviously, but also there's a lot of Concord production there. And is it mostly for juice is that right? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 10:48 Mostly for juice, yep. Craig Macmillan 10:49 I'm assuming this problem applies there as well. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 10:52 Concords really don't get sour rot very much, partly because their clusters more open, they don't set a tight cluster. If you think like a Pinot Noir cluster, or Chardonnay, or Riesling, they're much more loose like that. They also have much thicker skins, so they tend not to split quite as easily, they can still split, but we tend not to see sour rot develop on them. And I, I'm not totally sure why that is. But part of it from at least on a production level, a lot of our Concord gets picked before it gets much more than 16, 17 Brix. We know with sour with sour rot, we don't see symptoms start to develop until you get to 13 or 14. And I think that's partly a result of just how much sugar is in the berry, but also the relation of sugar and acid because microbes can't tolerate a certain acidic level of environment also. And so this is kind of an educated speculation right now. But I think that's part of the reason we don't see it in something like Concord and Niagara and some of these these juice varieties is that we pick it at a relatively low Brix, as opposed to wine varieties where we're picking 20 Plus. Craig Macmillan 11:57 Right, right, exactly, exactly. Continuing on the cultural thing. I one thing that growers do for both try to fend for grape powdery mildew. They may go through and they may drop infected crop when they first see it. This sounds like this gets spread around, can you crop drop with this and control the spread? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 12:17 The challenge with this is if and I've seen this happen in a couple of places. If you drop crop that's starting to rot and just leave it on the ground near the vines. What does it do when it's on the ground? It continues to rot. Right? It doesn't it doesn't stop and the fruit flies can easily go from the ground back up to the canopy and back down to the ground back up to the canopy. Craig Macmillan 12:35 Find another Fissure or whatever. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 12:37 Right, exactly. So another part of the challenge that is ideally you're not just dropping the crop and leaving it there in the vineyard, you got to kind of take it out so that it's not around that healthy fruit. Because otherwise those microbes will be back. You know, they get blown around on wind again or carried by fruit flies. And they'll find another fissure to get into. Craig Macmillan 12:57 Can you cultivate it? Can you can you tell it under? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 13:00 You probably could. Yeah, we don't do that much tillage in our in our vineyard rows just because we have all the rain we maintain cover crops between the vineyards all year round. Otherwise we'd slide all over the place. Craig Macmillan 13:11 Yeah, no, absolutely. Of course. Yeah. I've talked to Justine Vanden Heuvel about undervine cover cropping and things and I was like, This is crazy. Going to California perspective. That's nuts. And she was like, Craig, you have no idea how much water is in the ground. It would be a mess if we didn't which is which is really interesting. So okay, so that's not gonna work. Do we have anything in the chemical realm for prophylactic sprays? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 13:33 Prophylactics per se not so much what we've been looking at lately, a colleague of mine out on Long Island Alice Wise for about three or four years now we've been looking at a couple of materials that are designed to enhance the cuticle thickness around the berries basically as a way to try to see if we can prevent cracking. One of them was originally developed to reduce cracking and cherries. Craig Macmillan 13:54 What materials are we talking about? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 13:56 So the material we've been working with is a combination of materials, some waxes and carbohydrates and some other things that kind of just bind to that cuticle around the berry and just thicken it up. Literally from everything I've seen, it works in cherries to prevent this cracking. We've been looking at two versions of these, this material they both developed at Oregon State actually one produces a thinner cuticle and other one produces a much thicker one. And we've tested them both. And we haven't seen any difference in sour rot from using these materials. Now we've had kind of some kind of weird years when we've been testing this, we've had a couple of years where we had a lot of sour rot and a couple of years where we had almost none. So it it hasn't been the best time to be testing this. But in the two years that we've had sour rot, it didn't seem to do very much in the way of reducing it to the point that you could justify spending, you know the time and effort to do it. The only other kind of sprays that we're looking at at this point are things like hydrogen peroxide and proxy acetic acid, then there's some there's some commercial products that are out there that contain one or both of those ingredients. And those are basically just antimicrobials I mean, they they burn whatever they touch. You know, same thing like when you get a cut on your arm, you put hydrogen peroxide on there it disinfects. So that's basically what we're doing for the microbes. And it works pretty well. The key always is coverage, because it has to hit it. As soon as that material hits, hits that grape hits a microbe, whatever, it starts to convert to water, basically those those materials, if you don't have good coverage, if you can't get the material to where the microbes are hanging out, it's not going to be terribly effective. And so that's the that's always the challenge with those kinds of things. But they they do work to the extent that they can reach. Craig Macmillan 15:36 To some extent, yeah, and again, this is going to be another issue with cluster architecture. Obviously, this is terrifying. As I'm sure everybody in the state of New York and elsewhere, certainly not limited to New York, New York, as far as I know. Okay, now I've got it. It's getting started. Maybe I caught it early, maybe I didn't know what what can I do? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 15:59 The standard treatment that we have at this point is that either when you get to that 13, 14 Brix number or you start to see it show up, and most growers will wait until they see it show up. The standard practice is basically to start this combination of an antimicrobial and an insecticide to kind of keep it under control and try to keep it from getting to that explosive stage. The challenge with that is that fruit flies under the right conditions. And if it's above 70 degrees or so they're generation time is every six to seven days. Craig Macmillan 16:33 Oh, wow. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 16:33 New generation of these things at their at their utmost or at their best. Essentially, we need to be spraying every seven, eight days to try to keep this under wraps. What we've found, and this is more good news, what we found is that we are identifying a lot of populations of fruit flies here in New York, not just in the Finger Lakes, but in some other areas that we've been testing to where their fruit flies have quickly developed resistance. Craig Macmillan 16:59 That's how they do it, isn't it. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 17:00 And so what we've seen is that basically the fruit flies have developed resistance to a couple of these materials. We've tested them on a couple of different pyrethroids, a couple of organophosphates, a couple of other materials and found pretty high levels of resistance in the lab, at least, when we've tested them. It has pointed out to us very quickly that this is not a problem that that chemistry alone can solve. All right, there we go. Okay, that's kind of leading us in the direction of maybe not necessarily replacing chemicals completely. It'd be nice if we could, but at least supplementing some of these other cultural and non chemical practices like the leaf pulling, I was mentioning earlier to try to reduce the need for those sprays, if, again, if not eliminate it all together. Craig Macmillan 17:42 And so what kind of research projects do you have going right now on this topic? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 17:44 We've got a few that we're that we're kind of looking at, again, kind of tackle this from a couple different directions, we're doing some a little bit more work on that leaf pulling aspect, we've done some work, my colleagues and some other people in around the country have looked at mechanical leaf removal at that pre bloom stage and found that it works pretty well as well. There are certainly hormonal sprays that can be used. We mentioned with like with table grapes, tuberculinic acid can be used to to kind of stretch the racus and give the berries more room basically. So it kind of reducing that cluster compactness. And one of the things that I'm particularly kind of interested in and excited about is the potential for UV light to play a role in this. Craig Macmillan 18:25 I am curious about this UV light thing, I'm hearing more about it and I'm getting kind of excited. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 18:31 UV light is basically just another sterilant that we use. So almost all of our wastewater treatment plants have UV light to sterilize the waters that's coming through the plant. So it does the same job that these hydrogen peroxide peroxy acetic acid materials do, but we don't have to worry as much about coverage. If we apply it right. One of the pathologists here, Dave Gadoury, has done a lot of work on using UV light to control different plant diseases in grapes, normally powdery mildew, which is very effective against, but one of the things that they found kind of along the way is that they were also reducing sour rot in this test plot that they were working in. And so if again, if you kind of think about it, you're if you use the right dosage and the right retention time and da, da, da, you're basically have an antibiotic material, but it's not a chemical. It's a physical one, I'm very interested in looking at the potential for UV light to not only control powdery mildew, which would be a lovely thing, which is, but also can we use it to minimize the sour rot incidents and those microbes that are causing it, as well. So we've got a small trial is kind of a proof of concept thing we've done last year, and now this year, if it works as well as it did last year, we're going to kind of try to expand that work a little bit further and try to see how do we incorporate that into a potential grower practice, you know, how, how often do you need to do it? What's the what's the light intensity? Do you have to do it a day or at night, which is one of the considerations you have to have. So There's a bunch of things that we still need to look at, to turn it to make it something that growers can be really rely on as a potential possible part of this solution. That UV thing is really kind of exciting to me. We also are a little further down the road, we're really trying to work on with some folks at Penn State and a couple of other places on developing a model based on climatic conditions that promote sow rot. So it just kind of can we predict when it's going to be coming, if we know that we're going to have five days of 80% humidity or whatever, there was actually just a really interesting study that's come out of Uruguay that I just heard about a couple of weeks ago at the GiESCO conference that was held here in Ithica, where they saw an impact on bunch rots, they were looking specifically at Botrytis, by having undervine cover crops, where they had those underground cover crops, they saw less Botrytis and less bunch rot than they did where they had like a weed free herbicide strip. So that's something I'd like to follow up on as well, I'd be curious about and then kind of the I won't even say sci fi because this stuff seems to come along so quickly. Now. We work with a couple of really wonderful pathologists and engineers here at Cornell, I was talking to a couple of them about this last year. And they said, I bet it'd be pretty easy to develop a sensor that we could stick out in the vineyard that could detect acetic acid far earlier than any nose could and just be like, Okay, here's your early warning. You know, it's kind of an early warning sensor, it's starting to develop, let's go find it and and try it, see if we can prophylactically take care of it early on. So there's just some some things that we're starting to bandy about as far as kind of further down the road. But I do think kind of the immediate thing that I would really like to are trying to put together is can we take the practices like UV light, loosening cluster architecture, changing cluster architecture in order to reduce that environment that's promoting sour rot? And then also try what can we do on the chemical end to reduce the need for those sprays? Craig Macmillan 21:50 Right, right. So there's some stuff coming down the pike here, that's really good. That's really, really great. And thank you and everybody else who's working on this. How big of an economic impact is this for folks? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 22:00 It can be one of the most significant economic diseases in grapes. In 2018, we had a particularly bad year here. And I know some growers who had to drop almost half their crop of Riesling on the ground before the harvesters came through. And so if you think about a three to four ton average crop, that's a few $1,000 an acre that you're losing. So I mean, no diseases are good. But I mean, that's a pretty profound one. And again, as I was saying earlier, the thing that's so hard about it is that you've already put almost all of your work and money into that crop all the way from pruning to spraying and all the handwork and everything. And then in a bad week, to all of a sudden, just as somebody called it go to snark my favorite descriptions of sour rot seems like the perfect word for it. It's just it's a really kind of a, obviously financially, but kind of almost as much emotionally devastating feeling. Craig Macmillan 22:57 If there's one thing, message piece of advice. One thing that you would tell growers on this topic, what would it be? Hans C. Walter-Peterson 23:05 I'd say probably the biggest and easiest thing you could do right now, to reduce sour rot is that early leaf pulling, we just know that cluster architecture, it makes a big difference in how much rot develops, you might still get some, but it won't be nearly as profound and prolific as it would be otherwise, we have just as a very quick example of it, we have a hybrid variety here called Vignoles we use in all of our sour rot studies, because if you just say the words and it gets sour Rot. Some work that's been done by some colleagues of mine, and some folks at USDA, they basically come up with, they've created two loose clustered clones of Vignoles and so those clusters, obviously, are much less compact than the kind of the standard one. And the amount of disease that is in those clusters is drastically lower than what's in kind of the standard, the standard clone of Vignoles. It's one of those things that just kind of is really illustrative when you see it and just kind of realize that, you know, again, you can still find a few berries here and there that'll have it but you just won't see this entire two panel stretch that's just kind of wiped out by it or whatever doing that that leaf pulling to kind of open up the clusters, I think is probably the right now the biggest thing you can do. Craig Macmillan 24:19 Interesting. Well then we're running out of time. I want to thank our guest, Hans Walter-Peterson viticulture extension specialist at the Finger Lakes grape program, part of Cornell Cooperative Extension. fascinating conversation, keep up the good work. I think a lot of people are depending upon you. Hans C. Walter-Peterson 24:38 We're doing what we can see. It's becoming a bigger and bigger problem with climate change around here. We know we've seen it increasing in recent years. So yeah, it's it's one we'd really like to get our hands around better. Nearly Perfect Transcription by https://otter.ai

The Ivy League consists of eight schools: Brown Harvard Columbia Princeton Cornell University of Pennsylvania Dartmouth Yale While all eight elite schools have been in existence for more than 150 years, and most for well over 200 years (Harvard was founded in 1636!), did you know that that the term IVY LEAGUE was born in 1954, when the eight schools formed a Division I Athletic league? I don't have to tell you that these eight schools are among the most competitive in our nation to earn an offer of admission. But to me the most intriguing about nearly any institution across the country is their traditions. Here is a flavor of what you'll find at three Ivy League schools. A Visual and Symbolic Tradition comes from BROWN: The Van Wickle Gates at Brown University are opened only twice per year. The gates open inward towards the campus as new freshmen walk into the campus and are welcomed home. At commencement the gates turn outward as the graduates step out of the comforts of campus and are ready to take flight. PRINCETON Tigers: Have a Tradition of a Fierce and Fiesty Competition Known as Cane Spree – This event was literally was born out of street riots between freshmen and sophomore Princeton students in the 1860s. Over time the event resembled more of a Freshman-Sophomore Field Day – competing in a variety of sports. Today the battle for class supremacy takes place each fall on Powers Field. YALE: Tradition of Celebration The Freshman Holiday Dinner takes place each December in Commons Dining Hall. All 1300 freshmen dress up and enjoy lights, ice sculptures, and overabundance of sweet savory food choices and decadent desserts. Food is enough to make any college student ravenous. This is quite a celebration for completing their first semester of college. So let's talk some numbers: Located in Ithica, NY, Cornell is the largest of these institutions with a total of over 14 thousand total students and a freshman class of over 3300. The smallest is Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, with a total of 4300 students and 1100 freshmen. The number of high school seniors applying to these eight schools range from 20,000 to over 45 thousand applicants at any one college – with 5 schools well in the 30 thousand range. The acceptance rate at these schools has dropped to under 10% You can apply to each of the Ivy League colleges through the Common Application at Commonapp.org I cannot emphasize enough just how competitive these schools are to get into. HOWEVER – students everywhere DO in fact get in each year – and that too could be you. My advice is simple: make a plan sooner rather than later that includes meeting with your college counselor. If you are a freshman – make an appointment before the end of the year and get to talking and planning. If you are a junior – please go see your counselor – decide now on steps you can take immediately to make your application more compelling between today and the fall.

Transcription:Intro 00:03Welcome to Changing the Rules, a weekly podcast about people who are living their best lives and advice on how you can achieve that too. Join us with your lively host, Ray Lowe, better known as the luckiest guy in the world.Ray Loewe00:19Good morning everybody, and welcome to our brand new studios in Willow Street, Pennsylvania. And we have our super engineer today, Steve Wright. And I like it when Steve is on the board, because he's a fellow swimmer, and he somehow boosts my energy level when he does this stuff. So we're gonna get a super performance, and his job is to make us sound good at the end. And I want to remind everybody that the purpose of our broadcast is we talk to one of the luckiest people in the world each week. And the luckiest people in the world are those people who take control of their lives and take control of the direction and live their lives under their own terms. And we call the show Changing the Rules. And you know, throughout our lives, we're given all of these rules by everybody else. Our parents give us rules, the school gives us rules, the government gives us rules. You know, everybody is out there telling us what we're supposed to do and what we're not supposed to do. And I think it was Steve Jobs, the Apple guy, who came in and said, you know, when you're living your life under somebody else's rules, you're not living your life, you're living somebody else's. So we have a gentleman today who certainly is one of the luckiest people in the world. And you're going to find out that the luckiest people in the world are also the most interesting people in the world. And Ying Wushanley, and what a great name. And you're gonna get the history of his name, too, as part of the process over here. And I met Ying in a swimming pool. He's a fellow competitive swimmer, he's a very, very good master swimmer. And we met him not too long ago when we were trying to qualify for next year's Senior Games. And I found out that Ying is recently retired as a full professor from Millersville College and he is embarking in the next third of his life. And he's going to be doing some exciting things, but he's done some really exciting things in the past. Ying has been an expert on the history of sports and his journey is an incredible one. Ying, welcome to Changing the Rules. Let's start with your expertise, is that alright with you?Ying Wushanley02:46Sure, yeah. Well, thanks for having me on the program. My expertise, I'm a trained sport historian. Most people have never heard of a historian who is focused on sports, but there are many out there.Ray Loewe03:08Well, let me start with a couple of specific questions. You know, one of the things that we deal with all the time in sports are the Olympics. Okay. And we had a conversation earlier and we were talking, I was under the impression that the Olympics have changed. That we went from being an amateur sport group over here to very much today professionals taking over the sports and I found out that's not true, is it?Ying Wushanley03:37Not in ancient time, the ancient games were the athletes were what we term as true professionals because they do their best and they will make a good living based on their athletic prowess.Ray Loewe03:57So the ancient Olympians were paid in fact?Ying Wushanley04:00Yes, paid big time. Yeah, like tons of olive oil, or free meals and they could dine everywhere. That's, that's pay. Well, they may not have gotten the currency also, but the name recognition will enable them to live a very wealthy life.Ray Loewe04:23And that has gone on for almost forever, right? When we started the modern Olympics, when did the modern Olympics start?Ying Wushanley04:31The game, the first game actually took place in 1896. But in 1894 the International Olympic Committee was formed. At the time, there was an idea of amateurs because it was supposedly based on the ancient idea of amateurs, even though in reality there wasn't such a thing. But it was based on a bunch of social elite who wanted to create this upper-class idea of amateurs. Meaning you don't play for money, you play for the love of sports.Ray Loewe05:11But the only way they could do that is because they were part of the wealthy elite, and they had the money to be able to train and do whatever. Ying Wushanley05:16Yeah, who can afford to be a very good amateur athlete if you don't have money?Ray Loewe05:20Okay, so now we can understand where we've gone all of these years. And today, it's very much not the amateur that rules the Olympics. Ying Wushanley05:30No, because the amateurs won't be good enough to compete there.Ray Loewe05:34Okay. So, while we're on the subject of the Olympics, I often wondered, why would any city in their right mind want to sponsor the Olympics? I mean, do they make money doing these things?Ying Wushanley05:47Well, it's for recognition. Politicians would like to bring attention to their corner of the world, especially say if you're from Brazil, from Australia, and how do you bring people to your corner of the world? So using Olympic Games as a major attraction, of course, certain cities have benefited financially, but many cities don't. And that is why today because the bidding is so expensive, many cities decided to quit because after all if you have more than 5 or 10 cities bid, only one will be chosen. And the preparation will cost so much money. And eventually, you're still not chosen and you've wasted a lot of money. Even the chosen ones, not too many of them make a big profit. But on the other hand, it's hard to measure because the legacy will be there, you had the honor to host the Olympic Games. Ray Loewe06:57So national pride comes into play. Okay, so that gets me into the next question. And again, I had the ability to talk to you about some of these. So I sound smarter, knowing the right questions than I actually am. But, let's talk about national anthems and sports and give us a little insight into the importance of national anthems. You know, we've all gone through this change and what's going on where athletes now rebel against national anthems? But there's a history here and a tradition. So, why do we play national anthems? What goes on, what's the importance of all of these things? Ying Wushanley07:42Well, it started as an accidental event, I think, during the 1918 World Series of baseball, and after the seventh inning stretch that the band, they played some music, including the Star Spangled Banner, which got spectators excited. And the manager or whoever the organizer was figured out for the rest of the series, we're going to start playing that music to get the fans involved. And that was the beginning of that tradition. And traditions, sometimes they're welcome, sometimes not, including many of the baseball franchise owners, they decided, you know, we're here to play sports. Why do we have to play music? You know, it makes sense at the championship to play it, make it more formal and more, respectful. But for every game to play this does not seem right. Well, you know, the baseball history as well as American sports history always goes along with the time. And oftentimes we have nations in war and patriotism plays very important role when you are in the war. And somehow we always need patriotism, patriotism would be something that the national anthem will symbolize and epitomize our national unity. So, that became a tradition first in baseball, then in other sports. But for many, many decades, it wasn't that big a deal until, I think more recently, the Persian Gulf War, the Desert Storm operation in 1991, then of course, the 911. 911 after 2001. With artists like Whitney Houston doing a rendition of the national anthem, it became so popular at the time, it was ranked in the top 20, and the second time in the top 10 of the most popular charts. So, it's very common then from an outsider's point of view, it seemed to be very strange because we can understand playing the national anthem at the Olympic Games, when you play against Italy, against France, against Japan. So, both team's national anthems will be played. But here in this country, every sporting event, even at high school level, or even, you know, little league baseball, there's always the national anthem. And oftentimes the media likes to portray it as every time we play sports, we honor the people who protect our freedom because we have the privilege to enjoy the freedom we can play sports. Some of my students say that other countries don't have this freedom, which is quite naive. Ray Loewe11:04Yeah. Wow. I mean, you know, you don't think about these things. And I guess this is the advantage of being able to study sports and of being a sports historian. I'm gonna want to talk quite a bit about this Title 9, because I know that you spend a lot of time writing about that. But before we do that, let's backtrack and let's talk a little bit about your journey here, which I think is an extraordinary one. So you grew up not in the United States, you grew up where?Ying Wushanley11:35In China, in the People's Republic of China, the mainland China. There's another China called the Republic of China, but the Chinese government, Mainland China does not recognize it. That's why there was a big fuss about Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan recently, because communists believe it's part of mainland China, even though in reality it isn't.Ray Loewe12:04So you grew up being raised by two women, is that correct?Ying Wushanley12:10That's right, mainly because my father was a high military officer, officially. And in the nationalists coming down, you know, you heard of Chiang Kai-shek, who was the head of the nationalists before 1949, when the Chinese Communist took over China, the mainland, so the nationalists fled to Taiwan, which is where they still are until today.Ray Loewe12:42Okay, and so your father basically was put in jail because he was on the wrong side?Ying Wushanley12:48Yeah, more than 32 years altogether from 1950 to 1985.Ray Loewe12:56Wow. Okay. And you were raised by two women, and what was the effect that they had on your life? I mean, here you are, you're very much into sports, you're very much into things that you would think Dad would do, right?Ying Wushanley13:10Yeah, that's right. Even though my dad was quite athletic, but my mother was much better athlete. I would say she is all an around athlete and in almost every sport, she could get her hands on. But she even flew glider in late 30s and early 40s, so at the time that Amelia Earhart was flying around the world.Ray Loewe13:36Okay, so you grew up, you went to college in Shanghai?Ying Wushanley13:42Yes, that was after the Cultural Revolution ended, from 1966 to 1976 under Mao Zedong. And there was no college in China for 10 years officially. Not the normal university. The university was running but the students were not academically selected. But Deng Xiaoping in 1977 revived higher education. So I, at the time I was working out of a state-run farm in the outskirts of Shanghai. So I had the opportunity to take the entrance exam and became the first member of a first class of university students. I was playing soccer before I went to the farm, but because of my family's political background, I could not continue.Ray Loewe14:36Okay. So you when you got your degree, or what did you major in Shanghai?Ying Wushanley14:42I majored in physical education at the Shanghai Normal University and then after graduation, I started teaching as a physical education instructor at the Shanghai Foreign Language School. It's quite a prestigious school in Shanghai, in China today, it still is. And after six and a half years teaching there I came to the United States.Ray Loewe15:09All right, so what motivated you? You know, how did you get here? Ying Wushanley15:13Mostly I was trying to escape the political persecution directly or indirectly because of my family's background. And my brother, my older brother, was at the time the leader of the pro-democracy movement in China.Ray Loewe15:30Okay, well, we'll catch up with your brother in a minute. Okay, so you came here, and you went to the West Coast of the United States?Ying Wushanley15:38Right, I was admitted by three institutions. Washington State University, Chapel Hill in North Carolina, and Purdue. But the Washington State admission came first and I grabbed it right away. I didn't care which school I was going to, I'm leaving China. That was most important for me.Ray Loewe16:01Okay. And you were here, now your mother, your aunt, the rest of your family is still back in China at this point in time?Ying Wushanley16:08Yeah. That's right.Ray Loewe16:09All right. So here you are, you're on the West Coast and you picked a major, and what did you choose to major in to get your Master's degree?Ying Wushanley16:16Masters in physical education, the focus on sport administration at the time it was called.Ray Loewe16:22Okay. And you were saying you had a friend there that caused you to then move to Pennsylvania?Ying Wushanley16:28Pennsylvania, Penn State, I was admitted as a graduate doctorate candidate.Ray Loewe16:36And you came here and you're still in education, still in physical education to a large extent, but you're also majoring in sports history.Ying Wushanley16:46Yeah, the department is Exercise and Sport Sciences. But my focus was history of sport and physical education. Ray Loewe16:57Okay. So now you are a doctor. Dr. Wu at the time. Were you married at the time?Ying Wushanley17:05No. We were married in 93 when I was still at Penn State,Ray Loewe17:12Okay. Now, to show everybody what a renaissance man you are here and what an equal rights person you are here, let's talk about your name and talk about your bride and talk about what happened here.Ying Wushanley17:25My wife's name was Geraldine Shanley, my name was Ying Wu Woo when we met and before we got married, though when we got married as well. But we became naturalized and became American citizens in 1999 and my wife in 2000. And when we did the official paperwork and we had the right to choose, to decide our name, so we chose on these names. Actually, our first daughter was born with the name we decided so we created a new name, Wushanley. Shanley is Irish and from the county Leitrim, and Wu is a more common Chinese name.Ray Loewe18:16Okay, so how many Wuhanley's are there now? Ying Wushanley18:20Four.Ray Loewe18:20There are four of you in the whole world.Ying Wushanley18:22That's right. Yeah, my wife and me and our two daughters. Yeah.Ray Loewe18:27Okay. Well, this will explain to a large extent why you spent so much time talking about women's sports and Title Nine and, and getting into all of that stuff because we have with us a true Renaissance man here, ladies. I mean, you're gonna want to know this guy. But talk to us a little bit about Title Nine, what it did for women and what it didn't do for women.Ying Wushanley18:51Okay. Well, Title Nine we should know, this year is the 50th anniversary of the passage of Title Nine of the Education Amendments of their act in 1972. So it's the 50th anniversary now. What Title Nine intended was to eliminate all kinds of the sex and discriminations in education activities where the institution received federal financial aid. So for example, Millersville University, not Millersville College anymore, receives any form of financial aid from the federal government, that law applies to Millersville. Basically, most universities and colleges in the country need to be in compliance. The intent of the Title was to change history in terms of opportunities previously and think about in your time even more that not too many women got the opportunity to go to law schools, to engineering schools, to medical schools. But nowadays, if you look at, it's almost half half, and that's the biggest intension. Now, most people think on Title Nine as related to athletics, so I will deal with athletics. Probably it wasn't even in the mind of the people who proposed that law, but it became manifested in athletics, because discrimination in terms of ability, you know, athletic sports is most reflective in terms of how one is discriminated. Well, we have separate men's and women's sports teams or competitions for good reason. Because physically or physiologically, there's a significant difference, you cannot compete together. If you put them together, then not too many women will make the men's team, at least as of now, because the ability. And that's why Title Nine affected college athletics the most. What did it do? It did a great thing to women's athletics because for example, the University of Maryland before Title Nine, the budget for athletics was like 99% went to men's and 1% went to women's if that much. Today, the budget probably is still not equal, but much closer. The program for example, at Millersville, we have probably 21 or 22 teams, and 12 - 13 - 14 are women's teams, for the reason of having equal or close to proportionally the ratio that represents the student body because Millersville is probably 53% women. So the good thing it did is it increased the opportunity for women to compete in college sports. What it did in terms of what perceived as damage to women's control of intercollegiate athletics is because before title nine women had total control of their entire women's college sports. It was separate from the men's, men's under the NCAA, women's under another organization called the AIAW Association for Women's Intercollegiate Athletics. And now, after Title Nine, the NCAA started to offer opportunities to both men and women because most institutions didn't want to have within Millersville, for example, have a separate department athletic department for men, for women have different rules. And the different rules is the problem. You can be sued for not treating your students equally. So after Title Nine, most universities will merge the departments, men's and women's, into one. And you can guess easily if those merge, who would be the athletic director most likely. Because men used to have this and just our society is still a male-dominated society, even today. But then women did not have control anymore, because, before Title Nine, they had total control, they don't have to deal with men, they will not allow men to come into coach or to be the director. Now, Title Nine says you cannot discriminate anyone. And the people often think, you cannot discriminate anyone, you cannot discriminate against a woman, you cannot discriminate against the man either.Ray Loewe23:56But it's changed the way sports laid out because today you see the big colleges, universities dominating women's sports. I remember days back when we had a little school right outside of Philadelphia over here that just absolutely dominated women's basketball.Ying Wushanley24:14Yeah, Arcadia University. Yeah, they won the first two national championships on the AIAW.Ray Loewe24:22So, you get some good things and you lose some good things.Ying Wushanley24:25Well, it depends on how you see it. The AIAW wants to have combined organization, have 50-50 share of the power. The NCAA being it's so dominant in terms of its tradition, power, and its financial resources, they wouldn't want to share. I know it's not right but it's also kind of logical and you can understand a big company merges with a small company and all of a sudden these two companies have to share exactly the resources, probably it won't happen.Ray Loewe25:02All right, unfortunately, we're getting near the end of our conversation here. And I want to get back to one more important thing in your life. I think what you've been able to show us to a large extent is, here you are, you're in China, a place that you want to get out to. You came to the United States, we can almost say you escaped, right? And, you built a life for yourself that's exciting, along things that were enjoyable to you and interesting. And if Ying can do this, the rest of us can do this, too. We just need to know where we want to go and what we want to do. But there's another element here that I want to make sure everybody knows about, and that's your brother. So, your brother stayed behind in China when you left? And what was he involved in and what happened to him?Ying Wushanley25:56Well, he was involved in the pro-democracy movement in China, started in the late 70s. And he became a leader once he got involved. So he's devoted to human rights and democracy in China. Of course, it wasn't easy. But he was detained, put into prison labor for four years from 1980 to 84. And I came to the States in 1988. At Washington State and Penn State, and then I started teaching at Ithaca College. And, you know, my mother died in 89 unfortunately. And my father was living with a relative after he was released for various circumstances. So my brother was the only one, the only person I really know, and I was concerned about his well-being. So I said, you can continue your pro-democracy movement. But I feel much more comfortable if you can come to a country where you have more freedom to do it. And so I don't have to have nightmares every night. So he agreed to come. So in the summer of 1994, just about when I was going to start at Ithaca College, he decided to come. I enrolled him in the English program for second language, foreign language at Penn State, then he hopped onto the plane, but did not arrive in JFK where the local media, or the Chinese media, was waiting for him because they knew he was coming. So he disappeared. And for 11 days, we didn't know his whereabouts. He did not hop onto the Korean airline where he was supposed to board. 11 days later, the Chinese authorities admitted they had him just for interrogation, didn't want to let him go, just because there are some unsorted issues. I started campaigning in the State College with my advisors, families, and friends, and it became an international campaign to rescue him. Eventually, the President of the United States at the time, Bill Clinton, and every senator was involved. Hundreds of representatives involved in terms of demanding, writing letters. Media like the BBC. Reuters News, New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, I remember all those media interviewed us reported. I made it big just because I know what happened in China for political prisoners, they can disappear and you never find out where they went. I wanted the world to know so that he wouldn't disappear. And that seemed to have worked and I was told indirectly that I should not continue this campaign because it wasn't good for the image of China. I said, all I want is for you to release him and I will stop my campaign. And 50 days later, they sent him onto a United Flight and told him never to go back to China again. And he hasn't.Ray Loewe29:27And he lives now, he's on the west coast in the United States? Ying Wushanley29:31Oakland. Yeah. Ray Loewe29:32And a happy ending.Ying Wushanley29:34Yeah, he's okay. He still lives happily there. Well, he lived in Ithica for a while, but after the first winter, he figured that's not what he liked. Because he had meetings in San Francisco, he liked the weather they had. So he likes comfort as well.Ray Loewe29:49Well, you know, thank you for being with us. You know, we're over our time limit so we're going to have to end this but again, Ying Wushanley, a Renaissance man, one of the few people you'll ever meet that combines names with his wife. And thanks for sharing the history of sport with us, and I can see why you get excited about it. And we'll continue to see you in the swimming pool. And just, you know, thanks again for being here. You're obviously one of the luckiest people in the world. And thanks again. Steve, sign us off, please.Outro 30:32Thank you for listening to Changing the Rules. Join us next week for more conversation, our special guest, and to hear more from the luckiest guy in the world.

Daniel learned it didn't matter how much money there was to count if the dishes were not washed. "Always finish what you start." Was one of his mother's most important pieces of advice.As a graduate of The University of Texas, he developed a keen understanding of the Economy. While earning his Bachelor's degree in Economics, he worked for various Texas State House Representatives organizing bills and responding to constituents at the Capitol.

Between formation in 1967 until 1977, the English progressive rock band Genesis lost a total of eight band members. By 1977, they were down to three: keyboardist Tony Banks; bassist/guitarist Mike Rutherford; and drummer/singer Phil Collins. These are the three who, in 1977, shot to worldwide superstar status, peaking in 1991 after securing 17 now-classic hits in the interim. These are the same three musicians who, in March 2022, played their final live performance, thus bringing Genesis to an end after 55 years of on and off and on again existence. Meanwhile, one of the eight members who departed Genesis in the early years was Peter Gabriel who also had a stellar career, giving the world an impressive number of now-classic hit songs. In this episode, you will learn which #1 hit by Gabriel knocked a song by Genesis out of the #1 spot on the music charts. Think about this: An artist knocked his former band out of the #1 spot. How many times in the history of Rock & Roll has this happened? Listeners: Exactly once! Listen up to find out which two songs were involved. As you will hear in this episode, pundits have long held that music lovers cannot be both a Genesis fan and a Gabriel fan. The kitchen-sink logic is that you either love Genesis or you love Gabriel. You cannot love both, because they are diametrically opposed. In this episode, Team Derringer conducts a countdown of five classic songs. In so doing, each Derringer reveals whether they prefer Genesis or Gabriel and then they relay their favorite song by their preferred artist. This takes the four Derringers from #5 to #2 and then for the #1 honor, they call on special listener and recording artist Rose Alaimo from Ithica, New York to reveal whether she prefers Genesis or Gabriel and then to give us her favorite song, which also happens to be the highest streaming song on Spotify by her preferred artist. Stick around to find out the artist and the song! Team Derringer also weighs in on whether either artist Jumped the Shark! And, did they Cross the Rubicon? Listeners: You are in for a surprise! In today's Post-Episode Bonus, Team Derringer features recording artist Mats Dernand, counting down some of Derringer Discoveries' favorite songs by the Swedish recording artist. Listeners will remember Mats from Episode 28 when he received a special shout out. This time around, Mats gave Derringer Discoveries an exclusive interview. All of the songs mentioned in this episode can be found on the accompanying Spotify playlist, Genesis vs. Gabriel, including a song by Rose Alaimo and a number of songs by Mats Dernand.

It's Kelly Preece here 4 00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:44,900 And today, I'm delighted to be bringing you an episode about non traditional research or approaching research, 5 00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:50,090 and research methodologies in non-traditional ways, the benefits, the challenges. 6 00:00:50,090 --> 00:00:54,260 So I'm delighted to welcome Lizzie Hobson who is the PGR in geography. 7 00:00:54,260 --> 00:00:58,220 Lizzie, are you happy to introduce yourself? I'm 8 00:00:58,220 --> 00:01:06,530 Lizzie Hobson from the Geography Department here at Exeter I'm a PhD student in the final kind of throes and stages. 9 00:01:06,530 --> 00:01:11,330 So I'm spending most of my time writing up. 10 00:01:11,330 --> 00:01:21,200 So I guess now I would call myself a cultural geographer. That means I'm mostly interested in the development of landscape theory and geography and 11 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:28,410 perhaps more broadly about geography of writing kind of effectivity and performance. 12 00:01:28,410 --> 00:01:38,620 Brilliant. Thank you. So the what we gonna talk about today is, quote unquote, doing non-traditional research. 13 00:01:38,620 --> 00:01:40,470 So so kind of unpack back a little. 14 00:01:40,470 --> 00:01:50,550 Can you talk about how how your research breaks the kind of traditional mode of what we expect research to look like a doctoral level? 15 00:01:50,550 --> 00:01:57,200 So a lot of my work is very methods based rather than 16 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:04,350 And so I kind of engage with theory in a more of a framing statement kind of way and think about how we can 17 00:02:04,350 --> 00:02:11,010 think about ideas kind of differently when we experiment with styles of writing and modes of presentation. 18 00:02:11,010 --> 00:02:14,820 I guess maybe in the simplest sense 19 00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:21,600 my project is about therapeutic landscapes and encounters to think about the therapeutic as kind 20 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:29,910 of residing more in the encounters between bodies and landscapes and in body practises. 21 00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:36,110 The problem with some of this research is that it puts forward this kind of. 22 00:02:36,110 --> 00:02:44,130 And this is me speaking in a in a general sense, an argument that's led to what we can call the medicalisation of landscape amd nature. 23 00:02:44,130 --> 00:02:50,520 I try and open up what we might judge, as having kind of restorative or recuperative qualities. 24 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:57,330 And what recovery might mean. And I'm particularly interested in how creative practises might open up some 25 00:02:57,330 --> 00:03:03,240 of these spaces and address some of these questions in more open ended ways, 26 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:09,060 I guess its pretty, quite useful to go through an example of my work. 27 00:03:09,060 --> 00:03:14,680 So a part of my project is kind of laid out into three. And I got. 28 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:22,460 A really good opportunity to go to Ithica, which is a small island and part of Greece, 29 00:03:22,460 --> 00:03:31,120 is not a traditional health pilgrimage site in the way Lourdes might be, but it is kind of a health landscape of sorts. 30 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:38,200 But it kind of ties with these ideas of the therapeutic come from kind of its Greek mythology. 31 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:45,490 So I didn't do Latin or Greek in school. So I was kind of really unfamiliar with these ideas before I got to Ithica 32 00:03:45,490 --> 00:03:55,480 But Ithica is supposedly the home of Odysseus, who is kind of thought to have spent this 10 years mega journey battling sea monsters and 33 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,660 going through all kinds of mental torment just to kind of return to his beloved homeland, 34 00:03:59,660 --> 00:04:09,370 Ithica. And then because of this and with the help of the poet C.P. Caffery, who wrote this famous poem, Ithica, and for many, 35 00:04:09,370 --> 00:04:18,280 Ithica has come to symbolise this kind of legendary journey that every person makes through life as they look for their own kind of personal Ithica. 36 00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:22,480 And it's become this metaphor for a kind of supreme goal 37 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:29,710 this kind of sweet homeland where you'll find a kind of internal calmness and satisfaction. 38 00:04:29,710 --> 00:04:37,730 When I was in Ithica, I was lucky enough to spend some time with an archaeologist who took me to Homer's Palace 39 00:04:37,730 --> 00:04:45,850 no Homer's School, which is also thought to be the ruins of Odysseus' palace. 40 00:04:45,850 --> 00:04:49,770 And the thing is, when you go there, you expect this kind of super 41 00:04:49,770 --> 00:04:57,850 grand place like ticketed off kind of all official like English heritage or national trust, what you see with them. 42 00:04:57,850 --> 00:05:01,600 When I got those kind of none of that. And that's really super glad 43 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,190 to have my guide because I wouldn't have known what I was looking at. 44 00:05:06,190 --> 00:05:11,130 There's basically one kind of placket saying you enter the site at your own risk 45 00:05:11,130 --> 00:05:15,850 as it isn't stable and then nothing telling you what you were looking at. 46 00:05:15,850 --> 00:05:24,250 So I kind of started thinking about these kind of grand myths and legends and standing amongst this place that was kind of. 47 00:05:24,250 --> 00:05:30,460 Full of rubble. And I started experimenting with knitting as a practise, 48 00:05:30,460 --> 00:05:39,060 and I didn't if you know those kind of old school geography diagrams where you get those different layers like sediment. 49 00:05:39,060 --> 00:05:43,090 And then you've got the granite layer that's a bit harder on sits on top and lasts a bit longer. 50 00:05:43,090 --> 00:05:49,440 And I think it's probably actually the other way around. But I was thinking about knitting a bit like that. 51 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:57,010 So knitting is kind of a way to bring the landscapes, kind of absences and presences in gaps into life. 52 00:05:57,010 --> 00:06:02,140 So when I was there, I was kind of interested in the materiality of the place. 53 00:06:02,140 --> 00:06:06,650 That was kind of caught up in this very real process of erosion. 54 00:06:06,650 --> 00:06:11,290 And lack of funds have kind of stopped any kind of like 55 00:06:11,290 --> 00:06:20,110 Oh, gosh, archaeological work. And nothing was kind of roped off in the way Stonehenge was. 56 00:06:20,110 --> 00:06:27,670 When I was talking to my friend, my participant, before I went out on this this trip with the archaeologist, 57 00:06:27,670 --> 00:06:31,480 her partner actually knew the site I mentioned because he was there. 58 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,620 Oh, yeah, I've been there. 59 00:06:32,620 --> 00:06:41,500 I do rock climbing and kind of parkour there as a substitute because there's no gyms, you know, outside it's site for outdoor exercise for him, 60 00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:49,870 which are kind of real madness when you think about heritage site regulations kind of here in the UK. 61 00:06:49,870 --> 00:06:54,610 And yeah, I also got to spend a lot time looking at Ithica's museum collections, 62 00:06:54,610 --> 00:07:02,620 some of the artefacts are kind of rumoured to be linked to as evidence that this was Odysseus' home place. 63 00:07:02,620 --> 00:07:13,630 So, yeah, we looked at these fragments of kind of urns and tripods and it meant to be gifts to Odysseus and kind of spoke to this magical place. 64 00:07:13,630 --> 00:07:24,640 But they also kind of opened up the space to talk about anticipating loss and curated decay and kind of heritage, those potentially beyond saving. 65 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:30,900 So when you kind of through the process of knitting and forming and reforming the landscape, 66 00:07:30,900 --> 00:07:35,890 it kind of became for me not just about this this magical tale 67 00:07:35,890 --> 00:07:44,980 but about visible mending, decision making and uncertain times and ideas about unbuilding in the process of preservation. 68 00:07:44,980 --> 00:07:48,810 So I started thinking about Ithica, this place of mining memories. 69 00:07:48,810 --> 00:07:53,500 So that's kind of just one example of my practise. 70 00:07:53,500 --> 00:07:58,900 I've done different things and in different places. 71 00:07:58,900 --> 00:08:03,840 That's completely and utterly fascinating. 72 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:12,620 So, okay, so you've talked about the ways in which your kind of research methods are not traditional. 73 00:08:12,620 --> 00:08:20,960 How how does these practises or things like knitting and the way that if I'm understanding correctly, 74 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:30,020 that knitting is kind of a practise of recreate and exposing those kind of different layers within these sites? 75 00:08:30,020 --> 00:08:34,980 How how does that form for part of a of a doctoral thesis? 76 00:08:34,980 --> 00:08:44,360 You know, as we said before we started recording, I'm I'm very as an art, as a kind of ex artist and lecturer in the arts. 77 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,040 I am very familiar with this kind of practise. 78 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:51,770 But thinking about the kind of people out there that are doing very traditional research that don't have a clue about 79 00:08:51,770 --> 00:08:58,040 how kind of these sorts of practises can be incorporated for a research project or be kind of an outcome of research. 80 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:06,770 How does that work? Like I'm sure quite a lot of different disciplines do is that I keep kind of a field. 81 00:09:06,770 --> 00:09:15,170 note journal. And instead of just classically kind of doing interviews or something like that, I kind of. 82 00:09:15,170 --> 00:09:19,830 And then I do a bit of that as well. But, you know, and keep a diary. 83 00:09:19,830 --> 00:09:24,400 But I also do like lots of sketches and things out in the landscape and things like that. 84 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:34,250 So when like and like anyone else, I then write it up when I when I get back and I'm making a lot more kind of it out. 85 00:09:34,250 --> 00:09:38,080 I'm kind of. Impressive. So it goes alongside a text 86 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:44,080 So in the case of the kittting, I kind of I write 87 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:49,000 Conceptually thing about ruins and kind of ruination in an essay format. 88 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:55,610 And then I also present my my knitting alongside that. 89 00:09:55,610 --> 00:10:01,990 In that kind of works in photograph form. 90 00:10:01,990 --> 00:10:08,170 I was really interested to hear you describe it as an artist sketchbook. Yeah, I mean, it's one of those things, isn't it? 91 00:10:08,170 --> 00:10:09,970 Does this do a disservice? 92 00:10:09,970 --> 00:10:16,090 That's when one of the thingsmy supervisors said when I think, no, you know, it's probably the best way of encapsulating it. 93 00:10:16,090 --> 00:10:21,780 It's almost more like a magazine than a traditional...more like a magazine. 94 00:10:21,780 --> 00:10:28,640 Again, this is probably the wrong terminology, but. Yeah, so I have. 95 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:37,580 I have to. I have a lot of I link back to the academic literature, but for me, I'm not practise based. 96 00:10:37,580 --> 00:10:45,170 I haven't gone by performance. And it kind of opens up another huge kind of can of worms around. 97 00:10:45,170 --> 00:10:49,940 what creative methods are who uses them? That thing for me. 98 00:10:49,940 --> 00:10:56,240 It's a way of. Kind of. Using creative methods is a process as a way of kind of slowing down what we think 99 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:02,110 we know when I'm sitting with kind of uncomfortable moments at the discipline. 100 00:11:02,110 --> 00:11:06,950 And I guess if you were going more by performance, you obviously have your your final end piece. 101 00:11:06,950 --> 00:11:14,490 And that looks very different to what I'm kind of talking about at a non-traditional thesis. 102 00:11:14,490 --> 00:11:22,600 Yeah, absolutely. And like what you're talking about and how you're talking about it, really. 103 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:30,230 The kind of methodology that your approach you're approaching in that artist's sketchbook really it sounds, you know, 104 00:11:30,230 --> 00:11:36,640 to make a parallel for people who aren't familiar with this kind of thing, it really sounds like kind of how you document ethnographic fieldwork. 105 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:48,400 Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, it's it's very similar in its approach, but it's taking more creative forms of documentation and. 106 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:53,590 Thinking about data in a much, much broader. 107 00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:58,140 And way as kind of being beyond. 108 00:11:58,140 --> 00:12:06,410 And, you know, words, numbers, which a lot of our kind of data and research tends to be either numerical or linguistic. 109 00:12:06,410 --> 00:12:13,900 But also thinking about. Practises of knowledge and understanding that go beyond the numerical and the linguistic. 110 00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:23,270 So, you know, I'm thinking as a as a person with an arts background. You know, we talk to a lot about experiential learning. 111 00:12:23,270 --> 00:12:37,010 And wht we would call embodied knowing say things that you might know through experience or intuition that you can't necessarily put into language. 112 00:12:37,010 --> 00:12:50,060 So it sounds to me like you're incorporating all of those different forms of knowledge and learning into kind of one really rich set of data. 113 00:12:50,060 --> 00:12:57,120 Yeah. It's all about non-representational theory and. 114 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:04,690 And yeah embodied and bodied ways and bodily ways of knowing. And I think that that's that's one of the challenges, right, 115 00:13:04,690 --> 00:13:17,790 of doing this kind of research in an academic environment that even though it's actually not new to approach research in this kind of way, it's still. 116 00:13:17,790 --> 00:13:20,490 I don't want to always say looked down on, because that isn't always the case, 117 00:13:20,490 --> 00:13:27,720 but it's it's not valued in the same way sort of across the sector or across all disciplines 118 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:33,840 in higher education that more traditional research methods and forms of knowledge are. 119 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:41,520 And that's really one of the key. I would imagine one of the key challenges of doing research in this way is kind of having to. 120 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,650 To justify it to the to the wider academy is that something that you experience? 121 00:13:46,650 --> 00:13:51,420 I think I'm. I'm really lucky because I work in a little pocket. 122 00:13:51,420 --> 00:13:57,410 And so I've got a lot of kind of like minded people, which again, I guess is why in. 123 00:13:57,410 --> 00:14:03,790 Sometimes it's hard to stay outside and kind of go, oh, yeah, is just like ethnography, you know. 124 00:14:03,790 --> 00:14:09,580 But yeah, there's this challenge of kind of publication and how to judge creative work. 125 00:14:09,580 --> 00:14:18,230 So, yeah, despite the fact that in my own discipline, there's this widespread support for kind of this creative turn within geography, 126 00:14:18,230 --> 00:14:24,230 in this kind of acceptance or even understanding of alternative outputs 127 00:14:24,230 --> 00:14:30,380 It's very varied even I guess by no means universal. Yeah, exactly. 128 00:14:30,380 --> 00:14:38,060 And I know I find kind of sometimes the articulation of trying to use traditional language like, 129 00:14:38,060 --> 00:14:44,070 you know, talking about all of the different things in your sketchbookas just different forms of data. 130 00:14:44,070 --> 00:14:50,920 That's, you know, it still has that. You know, you talked about writing the kind of theoretical and unpacking that is alongside it. 131 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:57,990 It still has that theoretical basis, still has that analysis. All of those things that other people are using to create knowledge. 132 00:14:57,990 --> 00:15:06,470 Yeah. So whether you're in politics or whether you're in engineering, you know, you're you're still doing collecting data and interpreting it and analysing it. 133 00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:11,360 And you are very much doing that. You're just doing that in a different way. 134 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:17,170 Yeah. And I think this is this. I really wish that I could come and be able to show you my work. 135 00:15:17,170 --> 00:15:20,890 You know, because, yeah, my work is practise based. 136 00:15:20,890 --> 00:15:24,200 You know, I know. I speak about it. I do it. 137 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:29,720 You know, and so it kind of comes up against these traditional forms a bit in a podcast but 138 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:36,350 a lot about the journal format, more, you know how well these places are kind of geared up for creative output. 139 00:15:36,350 --> 00:15:44,840 So I guess one of the issues I come up against in my thesis and which is going to for a whole nother kind of spanner in the works here. 140 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:50,090 But yes, so I do a part on Ithica and I also do your part on aerial silks and circus skills. 141 00:15:50,090 --> 00:15:56,660 And so I'm interested in visual and movement, bodily movements in landscape. 142 00:15:56,660 --> 00:16:04,790 So I really my ideal situation would be being able to include these videos of performances 143 00:16:04,790 --> 00:16:12,140 of aerial silks by myself or my participants and demonstrating certain kind of silw routines, 144 00:16:12,140 --> 00:16:19,670 experiences with gravity in the air. But the traditional kind of word document doesn't really have this capacity. 145 00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:28,160 So at the moment, I'm kind of working with including a load of load of visual like screenshots not screenshots 146 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,660 stills from these videos and kind of laid out like that old school kind of camera. 147 00:16:32,660 --> 00:16:38,860 reel, but. Ideally, I would be able to actually include video or someone read a paper. 148 00:16:38,860 --> 00:16:44,260 They'd be able to see the video instead of having to do the follow this link. No disruption. 149 00:16:44,260 --> 00:16:49,070 So you have to. Is imperfect and it's an imperfect option. 150 00:16:49,070 --> 00:16:53,640 So we talked about the challenges. Let's. Flip it on its head. 151 00:16:53,640 --> 00:17:00,270 What are the benefits of approaching a this way? What are the what are the benefits to the research? 152 00:17:00,270 --> 00:17:01,890 You know, on a kind of theoretical basis. 153 00:17:01,890 --> 00:17:09,570 But what are for you as a researcher what are the benefits and the development opportunities and the joys of doing research in this way? 154 00:17:09,570 --> 00:17:18,140 I guess for me. And I guess this is quite a personal thing, is that it's about doing something that you love. 155 00:17:18,140 --> 00:17:21,500 That's sounds like cheesey. So I like super cheesy. 156 00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:29,030 And I'm going to get even more cheesy because maybe it's because I'm getting to the end of my PhD 157 00:17:29,030 --> 00:17:37,250 My partner's just finish and he's looking for jobs. And sometimes, yeah, my PhD is a gift. 158 00:17:37,250 --> 00:17:43,550 Right. I get to spend four years of my life doing something that I enjoy and I want to do. 159 00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:47,870 And I'm very lucky that I got to write my own PhD and that I'm funded. 160 00:17:47,870 --> 00:17:54,100 So I'm aware that I speak from a privileged position here. 161 00:17:54,100 --> 00:18:02,170 But, yeah, I don't think despite all of the stresses that we've kind of talked about, that I could have done my PhD any other way. 162 00:18:02,170 --> 00:18:09,520 I kind of felt happy and true to myself and I was really doing something worthwhile. 163 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:15,200 So, yeah, I did. I'm very aware that sounds very idealistic. 164 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:20,240 I kind of spent the first. So I've done creative methods all the way through my undergrad. 165 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:25,370 Then in my Masters. I'm very lucky that I kind of fell on my feet and like there's a real hub for it in geography 166 00:18:25,370 --> 00:18:33,680 And when I started, I was kind of. I never really thought I was ever gonna kind of go into further education, 167 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:38,150 and I was really lucky to have some very good mentors kind of help push me that way. 168 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:43,010 But when I I thought, I don't know. I don't know what a thesis looks like. 169 00:18:43,010 --> 00:18:48,470 So I spent probably a bit over a year trying to write a traditional PhD 170 00:18:48,470 --> 00:18:54,890 I kind of resorted back to these traditional methodologies like interviews and things like that. 171 00:18:54,890 --> 00:18:57,740 And I really hated it. 172 00:18:57,740 --> 00:19:05,880 And I honestly think if I hadn't kind of started trusting myself again, I wouldn't have finished and I certainly would have been happy with it. 173 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:14,850 So. Yeah, I think. But I think it was just a necessity. 174 00:19:14,850 --> 00:19:20,520 So people tend to be really reticent to talk about their research in that kind of enthusiastic, 175 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:27,370 passionate and idealistic way, which is kind of bizarre on a number of levels because. 176 00:19:27,370 --> 00:19:37,390 You are not going to dedicate however many years of your life you take to do your research degree to a project. 177 00:19:37,390 --> 00:19:45,900 If you're not incredibly passionate about it. And incredibly invested in it because you couldn't do it, you know, so. 178 00:19:45,900 --> 00:19:50,470 And also what we respond when people talk about their research. 179 00:19:50,470 --> 00:19:57,310 Is their enthusiasm and their excitement. You know, that's that's the thing we respond to as human beings. 180 00:19:57,310 --> 00:19:59,230 Obviously, we respond to the content. 181 00:19:59,230 --> 00:20:06,270 But if someone you know, if someone's talking to you about their research and they sound really bored, you don't pay attention. 182 00:20:06,270 --> 00:20:15,130 And and it's really lovely to hear you talk about your research in that kind of enthusiastic and passionate way, 183 00:20:15,130 --> 00:20:21,500 because doing a research degree is hard. Like. I'm not trying to sugarcoat it, 184 00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:29,130 but there are some things about it that are wonderful and positive and that kind of enthusiasm and passion is one of them. 185 00:20:29,130 --> 00:20:34,700 So what I like to do is to wrap up is ask people to offer some advice based on their experience. 186 00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:39,010 So basically, you know, if people are. 187 00:20:39,010 --> 00:20:47,870 You know, looking at doing or have just started doing a research degree that involves these kind of creative methods. 188 00:20:47,870 --> 00:20:54,200 What advice would you give them based on your experience? What did you wish you knew when you started? 189 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,890 Yes, I guess from my kind of experience, I would say. 190 00:20:59,890 --> 00:21:03,100 That you probably have to compromise. 191 00:21:03,100 --> 00:21:10,480 Compromise is probably the wrong word here, because if you're gonna do something so bold, then you need conviction. 192 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:18,960 But. I guess what I mean by compromise is that if you're going to experiment with styles and kind of modes of presentation, 193 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:25,870 then you kind of have an obligation to your reader to help them. Get where you're going. 194 00:21:25,870 --> 00:21:31,090 So for me, I have a framing statement that does a bit of this kind of donkey work. 195 00:21:31,090 --> 00:21:34,840 It kind of acts a bit like what I was kind of saying in the beginning. 196 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:43,160 Like, I kind of started talking about my method. If I hadn't stopped, it's situating them somewhere within the therapeutic landscapes literature. 197 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:48,380 So. I love creative writing. 198 00:21:48,380 --> 00:21:53,990 I do. That's my kind of niche, which I kind of. 199 00:21:53,990 --> 00:21:57,710 I go from there. I will start with creative writing. 200 00:21:57,710 --> 00:22:06,250 But for me, I had to kind of come to terms with the fact that there's gonna be some bits of my thesis that are not so beautifully written. 201 00:22:06,250 --> 00:22:12,860 Because there are times when I'm gonna need to hold my reader's hand and I need to put interludes between between the pieces because, 202 00:22:12,860 --> 00:22:17,300 you know, we jump from Ithica and then we go to the circus skills. 203 00:22:17,300 --> 00:22:23,720 Right. So, yeah, compromise in a sense. 204 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:30,650 And I guess I'd also say that there's a need to take real care, I guess first picking up supervisors, 205 00:22:30,650 --> 00:22:39,500 but then also picking examiners to kind of see where you're coming from and see the value in your in your work. 206 00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:44,360 I've had some encounters where peoplehave just thought they're nice pretty pictures. 207 00:22:44,360 --> 00:22:48,470 But what are they doing? Ouch. My heart, you know. 208 00:22:48,470 --> 00:22:56,340 I've had others that I've really got what I'm trying to do and had really critical and productive conversation. 209 00:22:56,340 --> 00:22:59,360 So quite important. 210 00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:08,660 Thanks so much to Lizzie for taking the time to talk to me about what is an incredibly fascinating project and about the real challenges, 211 00:23:08,660 --> 00:23:15,180 but also the real benefits of doing, quote unquote, non-traditional research. 212 00:23:15,180 --> 00:23:21,440 If there's something about your project that you're approaching non traditionally. I'd love to hear from you and to talk to you on the podcast. 213 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,280 I think it's really important that we share these stories and represent these 214 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:32,550 alternative ways of doing that increasingly aren't that alternative and becoming very mainstream. 215 00:23:32,550 --> 00:23:38,750 But it can be scary to be the first one in your department to take that leap. And that's it for this episode. 216 00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:41,840 Don't forget to like, rate and subscribe and join me. 217 00:23:41,840 --> 00:24:08,448 Next time we'll be talking to somebody else about researchers development and everything in between.

I’ve know Steve @crandallfbm the longest out of any of the group. I can’t say I’ve spent a ton of time with him in person, but we met way back in ’93(I think) when I drove out to Newburgh, NY for a BMX contest. — We were both there to ride and hawk t-shirts. I traded him an Arm & Hammer rip off graphic T from my ingeniously named brand “4130” for a “Fat Bald Man” FBM T. I think we both rode in the beginner class since the big boy class consisted of Joe Rich, Luc-e ect.. Steve rode well, bringing his trails style to the plywood and I tried to huck a bunch of shit that I still probably can’t land to this day. I believe I have video footage of this contest somewhere. — About half way through one of my runs, I snapped my chain and was about to walk my bike off the course when Steve ran out with a chain breaker. I honestly had never even used one before. I had always just used a hammer and a flathead screwdriver like a barbarian. Steve fixed it in no time flat and I was able to finish up my run. — After the comp we exchanged info and he invited me to come and hang out in Ithica. We talked on the phone, but I never did make that journey. — We ran into each other randomly at different events of the next few decades and it was always a good time. When I had the opportunity to do @411vm BMX I asked him to do a “Day In The Life” article and he couldn’t have been cooler about it. — I’m pretty sure he got the first and last run of my t-shirts, but Steve stuck with his vision and grew FBM into a full blown bike manufacturing company. It was an easy decision to ask Steve to be a part of DSIL and I’m eternally grateful for his participation. You can follow Steve at dropincoffee.com, @dropincoffee, radshare.com, @radshare

November 5, 2018. This week Nick is joined via call by his friend and art-lover Georgia Hausmann, all the way from Cornell University in Ithica, NY. They both watched the 2010 Oscar-nominated street art documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop, directed by the man who brought this form of art into the spotlight: Banksy. The documentary focuses on the development of Banksy's friend/coworker, Thierry Guetta (aka Mr. Brainwash), and has transformation from filmmaker to street artist. In this episode, they discuss several of Banksy's famous stunts, how Banksy's art was meant to be temporary yet it is sold in galleries now, if Thierry Guetta is a genius or an idiot, whether he is scamming people or if he believes his work is good, whether everyone should be encouraged to pursue art, why certain artists make it and others are left forgotten, if street art has reinvented how we think about art or if this is how it's always been, the idea of branding and its relationship to art, originality with art and what makes it actually good, if Mr. Brainwash's work is all a hoax, and much more! For any of those on the fence about this episode or documentary, please go watch and witness one of the most fascinating stories about art, talent, fame, and how a man without any of that made it.
