This episode pairs one of the most esteemed Native American authors of our time with a writer who started writing because of his influence and guidance. Debra Magpie Earling took her very first writing class from James Welch at Washington State University and would later study with him again at Cornell. Earling's debut novel Perma Red made a huge impression on the literary community when it came out in 2002, but it has been out of print for many years. Thankfully, Milkweed Editions has just issued a beautiful new version of the book. And we will also talk about Welch's novel Indian Lawyer, which served as a bit of a departure from the themes that he covered in most of his work. We will also talk about the first Native American Lit Festival that just took place in Missoula in July 2022, and is named after Mr. Welch.
Eustace Mullins and Michael Collins Piper detail the inconsistent and seemingly Conflicting Official Positions held by The John Birch Society since Nabisco, a Rockefeller interest, bought the Welch Candy company in 1963 for 20 times more than its estimated value. James Welch, brother of Robert, co-founder of the alleged anti-communist John Birch Society, was handed $10,800,000 for a company that was hardly worth $200,000 at the time. He was also made director of Nabisco for the next 15 years meaning more, continued pay and incentives. Since then they have made some rather surprising statements regarding communist infiltration, the JFK assassination, and have mirrored the views of the ADL and Mossad on many topics. They have outright taken a Pro-Israel stance ahead of the US and its founding principles. https://GiveSendGo.com/BaalBusters Thank You

Here I speak with former house mate, friend who helped me get hired into my first job in advertising, advisor to TIE since 2009 and Chief Commercial Officer at the start of WhyBuy, the UK based business that helps people hire quality products and thereby own less. We talk about so many things. James Welch has lived and worked in 7 countries around the world. He reflects on that experience. We talk about living together, random things that happened, and the start of Shazam. James questions me – which hasn't happened on a podcast before (I quite liked it!). He explains what TNDP is – the event he set up many moons ago when living in Sydney. And continued in London until Covid hit (I presented at one, and was at the last one in London before the world imploded). And then he talks to us about Why Buy, the business that thrives on less stuff. Basically, why buy when you can get better for less? Such a great chat. Enjoy! Oh, and if you want to know more about Why Buy check them out https://www.whybuy.app/ (here). Rent, don't buy!!
We hear why James Welch started the chapter in a post 9/11 world as a veteran and his touching experiences of what SHP has brought to him personally.
Darrell Dennis captures the angst of the unnamed narrator in James Welch’s classic novel of modern Native Americans on the Great Plains. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss Dennis’s ability to shift between the flat dialogue of ranch life and the lyricism of the Western setting. The unnamed narrator is alienated from all and is defined by self-awareness and woe. Dennis is able to express the audiobook’s humor and pathos, as well as the tension of Native life on and off the reservation. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website.

Lewis' group of friends called The Inklings, but Lewis enjoyed other significant friendships, including a respectful and jovial connection with Dorothy L. Sayers.

For this episode, we're breaking out of the box a little by exploring the world of literature from the perspective of a musician. Joey Running Crane is an accomplished recording artist from the Blackfeet Reservation. He has recorded with several bands, including the fabulously named Goddamit Boyhowdy, and Dirty Bird. His solo album, Dog Winter, was released in 2019. And part of the reason we chose to talk to Joey was because he is a huge James Welch fan. James Welch is one of the most highly acclaimed writers in Montana's rich literary history, and he also grew up on the Blackfeet Reservation. So Joey gives us some fabulous insights into what makes Welch such a powerful writer about the Native American experience. We chose one of Welch's lesser known novels, The Death of Jim Loney.
Our guest, James Welch, is the owner of a new caregiver registry that selects and refers top-notch caregivers to seniors in the Willamette Valley area. It’s a new resource designed to find care based on individual needs and location. The registry is essentially a matchmaker service that collects only a small fee for finding your ideal caregiver. The registry lists only those caregivers who are checked and vetted, according to rigorous standards established by the State of Oregon. If you’d like to learn more, don’t miss this show!
Joseph Medicine Crow was raised on a Montana reservation in the warrior tradition of his Crow forefathers. But during World War II he found himself applying those lessons in very different circumstances. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast, we'll describe Joseph's exploits in the war and how they helped to shape his future. We'll also consider how to distinguish identical twins and puzzle over a physicist's beer. Intro: Two opposing bullets struck one another during the siege of Petersburg.

9/23/20-- The 2020 Massachusetts primary election was unlike any we’d ever seen. Months before, legislators and the Secretary of the Commonwealth scrambled to provide a vote-by-mail system. A pre-election survey conducted by The MassINC Polling Group found that 4 in 10 voters planned to vote via mail. When all was said and done, in many cities and towns, the proportion of mail-in voters was far higher. But, according to MassINC Polling Group research director Rich Parr, utilization of mail-in voting and early voting varied wildly town by town. “If you look at the eleven original Gateway Cities, 52% of [votes] were coming in early, compared to 66% of the other cities and towns. So there’s a pretty big gap there.” This is important because low-income and minority communities tend to have lower turnout, especially in primaries. “People had hoped that by allowing people to vote early or mail in their ballots, you reduce the many barriers that low-income people may disproportionately face," said host Ben Forman. Early voting and vote-by-mail opportunities don’t appear to have changed that. Parr said Springfield, Lawrence, Brockton, New Bedford, Holyoke, and Chicopee were all on the very low end in terms of early voting. The socioeconomic divide persists. “The towns that had a higher percentage of voters that had a Bachelor’s degree or higher, that was the thing that most lined up with how much they were voting early.” -- Turnout imbalances that skew the electorate is just one of the many reasons our state legislature doesn't reflect the diversity of Massachusetts residents. Springfield City Councilor Adam Gomez spoke with Ben about how he was able to overcome this challenge to defeat an incumbent state senator in the democratic primary. Gomez said his constituents wanted to see more of their state Senator, and they wanted issues addressed like health disparities and housing. “On housing and health -- the pandemic happened and showed how economically challenged this district was.” Police accountability and the Black Lives Matter movement was also top-of-mind for many voters, Gomez said. And his focus on those issues may have played a part in his victory against incumbent James Welch. “For a very long time I’ve been a part of the BLM movement, and also police accountability. That also played a factor, knowing that [Welch] voted down the qualified immunity amendment.” The Springfield City Council in June filed a resolution in support of the Senate version of the police bill that included an amendment to limit the qualified immunity that protects police officers from civil lawsuits. Gomez shares his story about being arrested at a young age and his plans to champion criminal justice reform alongside health, housing, and police accountability when he joins the state senate next year.

Amanda and Jenn discuss series to get excited about, 8th grade read-alouds, Star Wars read-alikes, and more in this week’s episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by Book Riot Insiders, the digital hangout spot for the Book Riot community, Care/of, and The Patient by Jasper DeWitt. Subscribe to the podcast via RSS, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Stitcher. Feedback Anna K by Jenny Lee (TW: underage substance abuse & alcohol) (rec’d by Nicole) The Need by Helen Phillips (rec’d by Courtney) Questions 1. Everything I was excited about doing this summer has been canceled, and I’m now suffering from a lack of things to look forward to. I was wondering if you could recommend a great series that has another book coming out a few/several months from now so I can read the book(s) that already exist and then eagerly anticipate the next installment! Some things I like include high fantasy, woman (or nonbinary) authors and characters, LGBTQness, and audiobooks. Thanks! –Emma 2. Hello! My mom is an avid reader, definitely gravitating toward mystery/thrillers, historical fiction and most specifically anything by Eric Larson. She has already devoured his newest book, The Splendid and the Vile, and has read nearly all of his backlist. Do you have any author comps for Larson that I could pass on to her? Thanks!! –Rachael 3. I’m looking for books that would make great read-alouds for my 8th grade English/Language Arts class. I’ve been teaching for five years, and I’ve always done the same read-alouds each year: Love that Dog by Sharon Creech, Bronx Masquerade by Nikki Grimes, A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park, and Cheaper by the Dozen by Frank B. Gilbreth Jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth. I’d like to change it up with some newer books as the ones I mentioned above are aging out; as my students have pointed out: “None of these characters even have a cellphone!” Some preferences I have for our read-alouds: interesting characters that help my students experience lives that are different from their own (I teach in a small town in Minnesota) minimum cursing (see above about teaching in a small town in Minnesota) engaging storylines that get students excited to hear what happens next bonus points if the chapters are shorter so I have natural stopping points each day Thanks for your help! Love the show! –Grace 4. Hello! I love the podcast and I have gotten soooo many good recommendations (both from a couple of asks that I have made previously and just from listening every week). I recently lured my wife into being a bookworm (I even got her on Libby, the proudest moment of my life!). She has gone from maybe reading 1 book in a year to tearing through about 30 books and graphic novels (the gateway drug!) in about 3 months time. The problem: she’s starting to run out of material! She’s pretty set for the next few months, but might run out of books to read over the summer. Her birthday is August 2nd and so I’m hoping to pick up some new books for her by then. She LOVES Star Wars and that is what the vast majority of her reading so far has been. She is looking for ideas for books, especially if they are series, outside of Star Wars, but that give her some of the same things that she loves about Star Wars. Things she likes about Star Wars: all of the aliens and creatures, good vs. evil, and the world-building. Things that she didn’t specifically identify when I asked her what she liked, but are definitely elements that I know she likes: strong female leads and found family (but who doesn’t love those things?!). Bonus for good queer representation, which is very obviously lacking in Star Wars. She is a bit of a weeny and doesn’t like things that are scary (sometimes Doctor Who episodes scare her, so you be the judge…) or have a lot of gore. Some things that I have thought to recommend to her were the Becky Chambers books and Saga (if she ever thought that she could get past the violence and gore). Thank you!!!!!!!! –Heidi 5. Hi! I am a new listener and am thoroughly enjoying listening to the show! I just got married in November and my husband and I will be honeymooning to Austria at the end of June. I LOVE travel books in general, but would really like to read some fiction/historical fiction about Vienna and Salzburg. We are also going to try to do a day trip to Bratislava as well, so I would happily welcome a book set in Slovakia. Thank you! –Kira 6. I’m doing the 2020 Read Harder Challenge and I’m looking for a book for the disabled protagonist task, specifically a Native American protagonist. I’m Native and one of my New Year’s reading resolutions is to read more books by Native Americans, so I’m trying to choose books by/about Native Americans for as many of the challenge tasks as possible. I’ve read Absolute True Story of a Part-Time Indian, but I’m trying to avoid reading any more Sherman Alexie since the MeToo stories about him. Thanks in advance. –Cheryl 7. Hello! I was wondering if you have any recommendations for books where adoption is a main theme. Many of the books I’ve found are a bit outdated or cheesy and instructional. I recently pickup up Nichole Chung’s “All You Can Ever Know”. I also found “Motherhood So White” on book riot’s website. My husband and I are starting to look into adoption as a way to be parents and I’d love to find some insightful stories or memoirs (or even fiction), preferably that feature diversity of story, race, and background. Thanks in advance for the help! –Lauren Books Discussed The Khorasan Archives by Ausma Zehanat Khan (tw slavery) The Poppy War series by RF Kuang (tw: war crimes incl. rape and genocide) SFF Yeah: Most Anticipated Series episode The Dead Duke, His Secret Wife, and the Missing Corpse by Piu Marie Eatwell TheRiver of Doubt by Candice Millard Escape from Aleppo by NH Senzai (tw war) Clean Getaway by Nic Stone Bonds of Brass by Emily Skrutskie Murderbot by Martha Wells The City in the Middle of the Night by Charlie Jane Anders The Tobacconist by Robert Seethaler, trans Charlotte Collins (tw Nazis) A Perfect Spy by John Le Carré Fool’s Crow by James Welch (rec’d by Jeff) (tw war crimes) There There by Tommy Orange (TW: gun violence and rape) Welcome Home, edited by Eric Smith Yes, Chef by Marcus Samuelsson

GREATER: When God uses difficult things for greater. Pastor James will take us through the story of Joseph from the Old Testament.
In the Old Testament the Hebrew people were headed toward the Promise Land, but they “became very discouraged on the way” (Number 21:4). They had been delivered from slavery in Egypt and seen their GREAT God work miracles, yet they became discouraged. Think about it, the God of all creation was leading them, and they were His chosen people. Nevertheless, they found themselves discouraged over time. In fact, they even came to the point of wanting to go back into slavery and bondage in Egypt. Like the Hebrew people, we all face trials and tests. God uses adversity to refine us for a Greater purpose. If we are going to experience the GREATER things that God has in store, we are going to have to overcome trials and tribulations with the supernatural help of God.
At some point in our lives, we all struggle with either denying or doubting. God's word has a lot to say when it comes to discovering the truth.
At some point in life, we all struggle with either denying or doubting. How do we deal with this dilemma? And where do we go when we need to find answers for absolute truth?
In this week’s passage Malachi prophesies the coming day of the Lord. This day will bring about eternal justice and restoration. In light of this, we can have hope in God’s eternal plan of salvation.
The people of Israel had forsaken the Lord their God, yet He chose to have compassion on those who would turn from their ways and call on his name. In the same way, though He holds all power, dominion and authority, God chooses to love us and call us His own.
Even though the people of Israel had fluctuated in their affection and devotion to God, He had not changed. He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Even when we are faithless, God is faithful.
Through the prophet Malachi, God defended His justice and foreshadowed the coming Messiah. A messenger would prepare the way for the Messiah, and this Messiah would bring redemption to all creation.
Through this passage in Malachi we see the people of God questioning and contradicting the Lord. Nevertheless, God’s goodness and glory does not cease or fail. Although we too may be skeptical towards God; He is not intimidated by our questions. God openly accepts our inquiry and offers grace and truth in return.
In this passage from Malachi we see the many ways in which God’s people have followed their own desires which have led to brokenness and defeat. God is faithful to His people, and He calls His people to be faithful to Him.
As we’ve seen throughout the book of Malachi, God called His people into a covenant relationship with Him. God desires for us to live in that covenant relationship with our hearts fully devoted to Him.
We can so easily get lost in the worries and weariness of the world. This passage from Malachi reminds us that our lives are designed to be in relationship with our Father and Creator.
God promised life and peace to those who would call on His name in awe and reverence. We too can take hold of the perfect purpose and plan that God has promised.
Despite the brokenness of man, God declared through Malachi that He would raise up true worshippers from around the globe. Through Jesus we get the opportunity to participate in God’s plan of eternal praise.
Like a loving father correcting his child, God must address the shortcomings of His people. In this passage from the book of Malachi, God addresses the error of apathy and calls us to worship Him with passion.
From the beginning of time, God has been demonstrating and declaring his perfect and complete love for us. Through the prophet Malachi, we can peer into the splendor of this love.
Like a bullhorn held to the mouth of an announcer, the prophet functions as God’s mouthpiece, proclaiming truth to the people of God. In this introductory text of Malachi, we come face to face with the active Word of the living God.

In today’s episode, James and Monica talk about the Green Movement in Sustainable Housing. They will discuss the ways we are seeing a growing interest in energy efficiency in homes in general, as well as the more specific ways people want to improve their way of life with varied energy methods. As REALTORS®, it is important to represent these features as the benefits that they are, and maximize the financial benefits that come with them. James will share his tips and tricks on sustainability in housing. Green homes are becoming more mainstream, especially in the new construction world. Code has gotten more strict in creating healthier homes that use less utilities. More durable materials and features are being utilized that help to save people money. Some of these features include: tankless water heaters, CFL lighting, and Energy Star label mechanics — such as furnaces and windows. James and Monica bring up a good point that this movement is very regional; what works best depends on the conditions in that area. One thing that works regardless of region is wall systems. New construction homes have a lot more insulation and keep the air in the home condition longer. Solar panels are one of the features that you can actually see on the house. It is a statement that in your house you stand for sustainability and leaving a greener footprint on the environment. There are different options for solar panels that REALTORS® should know about how they can add value for the seller and the buyer. There are several different ways to acquire them (lease, finance, or buy outright). Solar panels are an efficient way to create energy, but there are additional ways to save energy as well. There are a lot of different value points for going with solar, and money is just one of those. For REALTORS®, if solar panels are leased, that will need to be addressed in the contract for the house. Most electric/energy companies will do a free or low-cost energy inspection of your house. If you’re considering making energy-efficiency or renewable energy updates to an existing home, the energy audit is the best place to start. It will tell you where your opportunities are to make these changes. These audits may also be required to get access to local rebates and incentives. How can REALTORS® help their buyers see the value of these features in a home? As REALTORS®, you can learn what to look for, and where, on appliances, as well as certifications and guides so you can help your buyers understand what features are available, as well as what the benefits of those features are. As sellers, you should definitely focus on the energy efficient aspects of your house. By listing energy-efficient features, or energy-star certification, you can increase the value of your home as well as the value of the neighborhood. Getting the information out there, and accurate, is a selling point as well as an education point for the marketplace and other REALTORS®. It is the job of the REALTOR® to communicate the value; REALTORS® are the key to progressing the green homes movement, specifically as existing homes start to get updated. Another important thing sellers (and REALTORS®) can do is show the savings gained from switching to energy-efficient appliances. Some of these energy efficient features require a certain amount of higher-level explanation. As a REALTOR®, you have to be able to explain how newer technologies work, and their benefits, as well as providing information about maintenance costs and people who are able to work on them. Don’t be afraid to ask questions of your sellers as well! Their knowledge can help you learn more about the green housing movement and how to sell it. All of these help instill confidence in the buyer in terms of what they’re getting, and how it can work for them. Working with appraisers is an aspect of the green housing movement that is still being worked out. There are local and national studies that examine the average value of a solar panel that’s owned, but there are other upgrades that aren’t as well known. James talks through some of the important points of working with appraisers, starting by talking with the lender to explain the unique features and get a competent appraiser. There is a document you can attach to the contract (Residential Green Appraiser Addendum) that can provide information about the features of the home. It is also important to document the energy savings that previous customers have enjoyed, as well as other documentation that shows the HERS ratings or energy audit and ratings, so appraisers can see the value as well. Once the appraiser approves it for the premium value, it goes to the underwriter. The underwriter also has to verify that they feel the energy features provide value as well. What are some of the common things people are putting in existing homes to increase energy efficiency? Solar panels are a popular addition, and often spur the conversation for additional ways to create energy efficiency in homes. Insulation as well as air sealing are also some popular updates. Air sealing is one of the most important factors in keeping your home comfortable and decreasing cost of utilities. Many of the smart-home technologies help provide additional comfort and convenience — you can track and manage usage from your smart phone! There are loan options and energy-efficient mortgages for green homes. REALTORS® can help their clients by finding lenders that have programs that help people buy older homes and include costs for energy efficient upgrades. With these mortgages, it’s a traditional home loan that lets you borrow more money so you can put in energy savings measures. To obtain these loans, you have to have the energy audit to show the current condition, as well as to determine what measures you can do. This will also help to figure out the savings and what the new value would be. An item is approved if you will save more money over the time of the mortgage than you put in. There are a few extra steps, but it’s important to know about these things to help your client. These loans create opportunity to put in features that are going to provide longevity for the house. If you don’t have your Green Designation, it’s a great place to get educated so you’re aware of what exists out there and how you can use that information as a REALTOR®. Start small and continue to educate yourself and experience these things, so you can talk about them with your buyers. Green housing is a great opportunity to pay it forward.

Readings and Lectures from the Port Townsend Writers' Conference
We're pleased to present a reading from James Welch, recorded at the 1998 Port Townsend Writers' Conference. It all started in 1974 with the founding of the Port Townsend Writers’ Conference by novelist Bill Ransom, who envisioned an egalitarian, non-hierarchical conference where the emphasis was on the craft of literary writing. Such writers and welcomers as Jim Heynen, Carol Jane Bangs, Sam Hamill, Rebecca Brown, and many others continued this emphasis on the writing craft over the next few decades, and the Conference has become an annual pilgrimage for many. Whether you’re seeking to create or revise new work, find writing community, or simply desire a writing retreat in an inspirational location, Centrum is at the heart of the thriving Pacific Northwest literary scene. The list of Port Townsend Writers’ Conference faculty members is long and distinguished.
James Welch, an American of Blackfeet and Gros Ventre heritage, was a novelist, poet, and teacher. He was born on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation in Browning, Montana and died in 2003. His papers are held at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, at Yale University. "Living Distance: The Life and Papers of James Welch," an audio essay prepared by Eric Ward and read by Presca Ahn, explores the writer’s life, his legacy, and his archive.
