Welcome to episode 1 of our Mini Campaign. In the homebrew world of Jelt, there were five mighty kingdoms that ruled the land. All had their fair share of issues, but none that couldn't be solved with diplomacy. One day, the king of the northern land of Knell, declared war on the other factions, and with his army of frost giants, drakes, and his royal military, he began to lay waste to one kingdom at a time. Some kingdoms fell, and others secluded themselves in hiding, but one lone kingdom remained to stand against this once king now tyrant "Kenneth The Conqueror" and that was the kingdom of Brux. Houran The First, The King of Brux, decided to call forth four exceptional heroes in the kingdom to form a group capable enough to end this onslaught sent by Kenneth. This is where our story will begin. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/robert-franks2/support
Enjoy our presentation of Deeplight, written by Frances Hardinge and published by Macmillan. The gods are dead. Decades ago, they turned on one another and tore each other apart. When 15-year-old Hark finds the still-beating heart of a terrifying deity, he risks everything to keep it out of the hands of smugglers, military scientists, and a secret fanatical cult so that he can use it to save the life of his best friend, Jelt. But with the heart, Jelt gradually and eerily transforms. How long should Hark stay loyal to his friend when he's becoming a monster and what is Hark willing to sacrifice to save him?Deeplight is recommended for ages 12+.

Spirit of 608: Fashion, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability + Tech
On today's show, we're bringing back a conversation that's so good for right now with a guest who's not only inspiring, but entertaining to the extreme. Her infectious spirit could easily be something that bubbled up in the aftermath of a frightening medical emergency that landed her in the hospital close to death. But there's just something about her approach to life and business that makes me suspect she had it all along. Either way, you only have to listen to this female entrepreneur for a few minutes to get that she's a true original, just like the unique belts she devised using recycled materials and a patented design made to hold pants up without creating any extra bulge under slim-fitting shirts. In the interview, you'll hear her explain how - with no apparel or accessories industry experience whatsoever - she came to be running a belt company from Bozeman, MT. Along with that, she shares takeaways and advice from her experience patenting her design and working to create a product using recycled textiles. Hear more on this week's guest, Jen Perry, Founder of Jelt. Ask Spirit of 608 a question

Josh sits down with Jelt Belt founder Jen Perry. Jelt Belt makes stylish belts that you can where with anything, anywhere, anytime. Jelt was originally started out of necessity when Jill-of-all-trades, Jen Perry needed a belt she could where between outdoor activities, her entrepreneurial endeavors, and being a mother. After being seriously hospitalized due to a ruptured appendix, Jen vowed that she would find a way to give back to her community after recovering. It wasn't long after that she began her philanthropic career path which would eventually lead her on a new path, creating Jelt Belt. Fast forward a decade and Jen is going STRONG with Jelt Belt with no signs of slowing down.

From Jeltbelt.com: "If not now, when?" After surviving a near-death experience and months in the hospital, Jen Perry knew she wanted to do more with her life. In 2014, she founded Jelt as a social enterprise, with the purpose of creating a product that everyone would need, while promoting and encouraging social change. Functional and socially impactful, Jelt elastic belts are made from recycled plastic bottles and are manufactured in a way that empowers women. Jelt belts are produced by women sewers living on rural Montana ranches and are also manufactured at the Women’s Prison in Billings, Montana, via the Montana Correctional Enterprise Program. This privileged program breaks the cycle of incarceration by interviewing, training and paying the women, giving them the skills and confidence needed to live a more productive life when released. Since its inception, Jelt has become a Certified B Corporation, is active in 1% For The Planet, and has donated thousands of dollars to charities all over the world.
