Hear Bill's conversation with his famous and beautiful guests, Kim Brooks, President of Solar-Fit, and Meghan McDonald, Marketing & Media Executive for Solar-Fit. If these names sound familiar to any of our long-time listeners, it is because Kim is Bill's daughter...and Meghan is Kim's daughter...and you guessed it...Bill's granddaughter! Talk about a family based company! And oh yes...Jeff Brooks, our awesome lead service technician is Kim's husband!

It is truly wonderful to come to work each day surrounded by some of the most wonderful people on the planet and the family as well. We are so blessed. This was a fun episode as it is the first show of the New Year...and 2025 marks our 50th year helping our friends and neighbors "Plug into the Sun". During the show, we recalled several decades of memories including the first bag phone, phone booths, beepers... (even leisure suits), and moved all the way forward to the newest technologies driving commerce and our individual habits today. These inventions and creations would seem foreign to most of us, even ten short years ago. Today, they are commonplace and they are most certainly changing the way we live, and even the way we think, with AI just starting to take root. To be honest, it has been challenging, but rewarding, to keep up with the changes. The younger generation today has become so adept at navigating the media sites that it is amazing just to watch them work their magic. Join us for some fun and if you are serious about making a difference in the world and saving energy dollars...Give Kim or Meghan a call and let them know that you heard about their adventures on WNZF Talk Radio.Support the show

Today, on The Two Mikes, we spoke with Kim Brooks, who is a trained engineer and, for the past three years, the leader of a group called the “Georgia Nerds” (Twitter Handle: @georgianerds_real) This group has relentlessly pursued what increasingly appears to be the fairly complete bipartisan corruption of the Georgia's electoral system. The Nerds have spent three years examining the files of Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office for the years 2020, 2022, and 2024. Ms. Brooks spoke to us just after she participated in a press conference in which she and other of the Nerds called on Republican Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to call a special session of the Georgia legislature and issue an order that only paper ballots be used in this November's national election. The call for Kemp to do so was buttressed by a long sampling of the corruption found in the files of the state's Secretary of State. During this press conference, Ms. Brooks and the Nerds focused on Republican corruption, but noted that the Democrats' electoral corruption is just as bad, and there also are corrupt operations that are cooperatively executed by the two parties.

It's been a busy few months for The Community Farm in Somerset's Chew Valley. The social enterprise has a small team of staff supplemented by volunteers, who grow, harvest, pack and sell organic veg via a box scheme: a business that's grown massively since the pandemic hit. But the farm also offers a range of educational and well-being workshops for children, adults and vulnerable people, which have this year been limited by coronavirus restrictions. Now, thanks to a grant, the team is building a new outdoor shelter and fire-pit that will help them continue and expand their community workshops in safe, socially distanced fashion in the New Year - saying that now more than ever, people are recognising the mental health benefits of connecting with nature. Lucy Taylor visits the farm as they finish up their festive orders; chatting to managing director Kim Brooks about the business and their veg box contribution to local charity schemes, and hearing from Antonia Cross from the homeless support organisation Caring in Bristol. Lucy also meets some of the regular volunteers, led by Giles Atkinson - and talks to engagement manager Hatty Richards about their plans to get more people out on the farm in 2021. Presented and produced in Bristol by Lucy Taylor.
Kim Brooks knows what it means for one seemingly small decision to snowball into something unexpected. She described the catalyst event that led her to write Small Animals (a must-read for parents) to Zibby. They talked about the anxiety of raising children, examining the culture of parenthood and how it shifts over generations, and marriage, divorce and coparenting.
Ever thought about what it would be like to give up living in suburbia and live off the land instead? Chloe and Paul Howorth did just that, moving from Canberra to Nelson, New Zealand to embrace a more sustainable lifestyle for a year. Chloe loves permaculture and urban planning and worked in a senior role in the ACT government, before taking leave without pay for a year to make a tree change. Paul is an entrepreneur, lawyer and strategist with more than 20 years experience in business operations and advisory consulting in development-related fields.

Modern people have more labour-saving devices than we know what to do with. We have more leisure time than almost anyone in history. Yet, we always seem busy and over-worked. How can people with so much free time feel so burdened? This sermon helps address the problem of over-work by reflecting on the gift of Sabbath. Jesus reveals to us that we need rest in order to flourish as human beings. We also have a responsibility to help others flourish by giving them rest. Learn about the importance of weekly rest, and why making it a priority brings real blessings.Preached on the 11th Sunday after Pentecost, August 25, 2019 by Rev. Stephen SilverthorneScripture Reference: Luke 13:10-17; Exodus 20:8-11; Deuteronomy 5:12-15Sermon HighlightsSabbath confrontations are a regular part of Jesus' ministrySabbath is a big dealSabbath is a necessary part of human flourishingWe have a responsibility to carve out time for genuine restSabbath is an act of service for othersSabbath brings opportunity to help others find restJesus confronts religious leaders because they keep others from being freeWe should model Jesus, who makes others more free through his ministryFurther ReadingWe Have Ruined Childhood by Kim Brooks. In this New York Times article, the author argues that there is a connection between the decline in free time and the increase in sadness. For this she blames the economic pressures forcing parents to work long hours, as well as a society that has decided childhood isn't important except as a stepping stone to collegeFree Range Kids by Lenore Skenazy. The author argues that children benefit from free, unstructured time and from increased independence. Yet, our fears keep us from giving this to them. Drawing on facts, statistics, and humor, she convincingly argues that this is one of the safest periods for children in the history of the world, and so our fears are unreasonable.

By every objective measure, unless you live on the Southside of Chicago, the world is a safer place today than it’s been for long time. As people like Steven Pinker have repeatedly pointed out, almost every form of violence is less today than it was 50 or even 100 years ago. So why is everyone so afraid, especially parents? Sure we’re afraid that our kids won’t have opportunities greater than ours, and we’re afraid about being ready to pay for their education, and we’re afraid that they will fall in with the wrong crowd. But we’re also afraid of them going out to play, of riding a bike, of them being alone, or just being on a playground that doesn't have the proverbial good housekeeping seal of approval. We want our kids to succeed and ultimately to feel at home in the world. But does mean overprotecting them in ways driven only by fear? Those are some of the questions that Kim Brooks as in Small Animals: Parenthood in the Age of Fear, based on and motivated by her own awful experience. My conversation with Kim Brooks:
Anand Giridharadas talks about his new book on the world of a global elite, and Kim Brooks discusses “Small Animals: Parenthood in the Age of Fear.”
Making a quick trip into a store, Kim Brooks was only gone for five minutes, leaving her 4-year-old son in his car seat inside the locked car, with the windows ajar. Yet those moments transformed her life in more ways than she could have imagined. Megan and Clay ask Brooks about that day and her investigation of "helicopter parenting," SMALL ANIMALS, which is one of this fall's most anticipated books. Curious to know a few of this fall's other big books? Megan and Clay reveal their best bets and our editors join the podcast to talk about this week's most exciting books!

Kim Brooks reads her work at the University of Louisville, preceded by Stephanie McNamara reading her sonnet, winner of Sonnets on a Sunday.
(12 to 12:30) Kim Brooks of HEMPCRETE Natural Building LLC, is a green building industry pioneer with a mission to create ‘Homes for Everyone' that don't endanger people living in them. Kim Brooks & Partner, Jayeson Hendyrsan, developed hempcrete: fibre-reinforced lightweight concrete, wrapped around a traditional timber frame; composed of hemp hurd, fibre, lime, sand, clay, 2%+/- cement; mixed & poured into forms, plastered w/natural plaster & coloured w/natural pigments. Hempcrete Constructions are energy efficient; insect/rat resistant/proof; fireproof, earthquake/water damage resistant; carbon neutral/negative construction; low maintenance; cost-effective w/long term value; quiet; with reduced off-gassing (no petrochemicals or allergens). (12:30 to 2)In 1996 Terry Skrinjar invented a device for use in home or practice that dramatically enhances health & wellness based on water’s unique ability to transform energy into a life-compatible format: bio-energy. In nature, conditions resulted in legendary healing bodies of water frequented for 100’s of years. The device creates water-mediated bio-energy from electromagnetic energy creating an even more beneficial biofield than even such famed locations. Utilizing a specific metal & geometric electrode plate array configuration coupled with DC power to create a bio-electrodynamic field when immersed in water, the Bio Electric Field Enhancement unit (BEFE) was introduced to N. America by our guest Michael Stern. Recent scientific research validates and explains the powerful results experienced when using the BEFE.
This episode features new writing from both Kim Brooks and Kiki Petrosino. Find Kim's essay, "The Problem of Caring" here, and find the poem Kiki wrote for this project, entitled, "Letter Beginning: If My Body is a Text," here. Six years ago, Kim Brooks started going on "news fasts." She was struggling with parinatal depression at the time and the news of the world was often too much—too terrible—for her to absorb. So she got into the habit of taking time away from headlines and her Twitter feed to turn her focus inward. During the week of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling's deaths, Kim was on one of these fasts. When she returned to her screen, she realized her break from the news was possible because of the color of her skin. Kim is white. She doesn't have to think about police brutality. According to Pew Research, there's a significant difference in how black and white adults use social media to talk about race-related content. About two-thirds of black social media users (68%) say at least some of the posts they see are about race or race relations. One-third of whites agree. And there's a similar racial gap when it comes to posting, too: among black social media users, 28% say most or some of what they post is about race or race relations. 8% of whites say the same. "This is one of the ugliest manifestations of my privilege that I can envision: the luxury of ignorance." Kiki Petrosino, a poet, professor, and a friend of Kim's, saw the internet as a necessary way to immerse herself in what was happening. Kiki is bi-racial, and while Kim was offline, Kiki noticed a striking paradox at the center of the storm of circulating images, video, and information on her feed. "On the one hand we're brought really front and center, because you can literally watch someone dying, which is probably the most intimate moment of a life. But we don't know that person. We can't touch them, we can't talk to their family. It really throws into question how to participate in community given all these technological advancements that we're making..."Videos of police shooting young, black men and a troubling election cycle, played out on social media, have made racism in this country more visible. How do we balance being informed people with being healthy? Kim and Kiki come up with a strategy for absorbing, understanding, and addressing the news—from places of fear, exhaustion, and privilege.

If you’ve ever wondered how to write an alternating point-of-view historical novel with prose that wields similes like samurai swords, then Kim Brooks’ second appearance on Behind the Prose is for you. Brooks graces the virtual studio a second time to discuss her debut novel The Houseguest, out on April 12, 2016 on Counterpoint Press. (Her first time here featured a candid chat on her work at Salon as the personals essays editor.) I enjoyed The Houseguest because I was completely enchanted with the characters and their perspectives. I have no idea how she kept all those storylines together (“Good editing,” she says in the interview) but I’m amazed and inspired. She confirms the magic of fiction that I began to uncover over the last year, starting with my interview of Natalie Baszile’s and her book Queen Sugar and she unknowingly confirmed the method acting theory of writing that Scott Alexander Hess broke down.
Kim Brooks is the new personal essays editor at Salon, a baton passed on to her from Sarah Hepola. I met Kim (virtually) after I interviewed Sharisse Tracey who had an essay published in Salon. Oh, and by the way, Sharisse Tracey just had another piece published on Yahoo! Parenting - "Why I Moved Out of State and Didn't Take My Children With Me." I recorded this interview with Kim in November, but due to several issues (see last podcast for update), I’m just bringing it to you. Nevertheless, it’s right on time! It’s a new year and you’ve got twelve months to land a clip in the “Life” section of Salon, and if you listen to this interview and read some of the column's essays, I’m pretty sure you can do it. Listen below to this show (or read the transcript) and you’ll learn: One of the most important decisions a writer can makeThe type of work that catches her attentionHow Salon’s personal essays differ from other outletsThe best way to end an essay After you finish, go write that personal and maybe provocative piece.
Happy 2016 Prosers! We've been rocking for almost a year now! Check out the very first Behind the Prose with essayist Tavonne Carson. I'm kicking off 2016 with two great episodes. Today's show features reporter Jessica Contrera who works at The Washington Post. She talks reporting and writing in this episode recorded live with students at Penn State Berks. In two weeks, you'll get an interview with Kim Brooks, Life Editor at Salon. Jessica discusses her new job and how she crafted an award-winning story about a hometown Waffle House. (You can also read the transcript.) If you're in the New York City area on Friday, make sure you go to Susan Shapiro's SECRETS OF PUBLISHING PANEL. You know Sue. If you don't, you should. Meet her and other great writers and editors on Friday, January 15, 7-8:30 p.m. at The Strand Bookstore (12th and Broadway). The event features author Judy Batalion and her debut memoir White Walls: A Memoir about Motherhood, Daughterhood, and the Mess In Between. Admission is either a copy of White Walls or a $15 gift card to The Strand.
