It's Tuesday afternoon and we're only a few hours away from the Edmonton Oilers taking on the Utah Hockey Club, which meant there was plenty to talk about on today's podcast. In today's show, we covered the Oilers' modest win streak, Leon Draisaitl's dominance, new line combinations, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the power play and whether it's time for Kris Knoblauch to make some changes with his personnel. As you'll hear, the boys aren't opposed to making player changes, but if Knobby doesn't want to do that, he needs more than one player shooting the puck. Despite having a laundry list of quality shooters on PP1, there are only a couple of players who are willing to fire the puck.From there, we looked back at the Oilers' successful weekend in New York and how crucial it was that they beat both the Islanders and Rangers to wrap up their road trip. For a team that seems to be battling confidence right now, securing those four points at the end of the trip was crucial, especially with the way the L.A. Kings have really started to heat up over the last few weeks. It's amazing what a bad two-week stretch of hockey can do for the standings, right?We also touched on the incredible run Leon Draisaitl is on right now and how his 18-game point streak is not only the longest in the NHL this season but the longest of his career. No matter how well or poorly the team has played this season, the one constant has been Draisaitl's dominance on a nightly basis. In even better news, it looks like Connor McDavid is also starting to heat up after sniping a beautiful shot past Igor Shesterkin on Sunday at Madison Square Garden.Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a random collection of topics, including some betting talk ahead of Tuesday's matchup vs. Utah, what the Oilers need to do on their home stand, and much more. Needless to say, the guys always have plenty to talk about when the Oilers are battling to get back to the consistency that saw them be one of the best teams in the NHL for a 30-game stretch.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!

In the winter of 1979, several residents around Carpenter's Knob in Cleveland County, North Carolina, reported a series of unusual encounters with an unknown, apelike animal. Among the early sightings were those reported by Minnie Cook, an 88-year-old resident who claimed that she observed the animal after she emerged from her home to learn what kind of animal had been disturbing her dogs. Over the next several weeks, "Knobby fever" would strike this rural portion of Western North Carolina, with many other residents reporting sightings of a large, roughly six-foot-tall apelike creature that both walked on its hind legs and on all-fours. In this episode of Sasquatch Tracks, following a recent news story involving the escape of several primates from a South Carolina laboratory, we take a deep dive into the story of Knobby, and examine the possibilities behind this enduring local legend of a southeastern "Bigfoot" creature.

It's Friday afternoon, and that means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been edited and ready to massage your ear holes.We started the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what we expect the Oilers to do in Game 5 to avoid the same result they got in the same situation in Vancouver. Given that the team played as poorly as they did in this exact spot in the last round, there are plenty of lessons the Oilers may have learned, and we tried to outline as many of those spots as possible.Changing gears, we looked at Kris Knoblauch's lineup decisions this past week ahead of Game 4. A lot of Oilers fans questioned putting Corey Perry and Philip Broberg into that game, but it was another set of moves by Knobby that really turned out well. Regardless of what decision he makes, there will be plenty of pressure on either guy to come through with a clutch performance.Lastly, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots and Hot and Cold Performers before winding down with some score predictions ahead of Game 5 against the Dallas Stars. As always, the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio was a blast to record, and we all hope you had just as much fun listening as we did making it.

It's Friday afternoon, and that means we've got a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio all set, edited, and ready to take you into the weekend. This week, we spoke about the Oilers' loss to Vegas, previewed tonight's game against the Ducks, and dove into some of the silly szn rumours that are circling our favourite hockey team.Kicking off the podcast, we got started with a delicious debate about the Oilers' new line combinations. Not only did Coach Knobby shuffle his forward lines, but he also changed up the defensive pairings, which had a lot of Oilers fans scratching their heads. Of course, Knobby has made a lot of good lineup choices since he's taken over, but these new d-pairings will certainly take a minute to get used to seeing. Looking ahead at the trade deadline, we dove into some of the rumours and names that the Oilers have been tied to lately and whether any of those players are realistic options. Depending on what the team's biggest need is, there are plenty of suitable names that the Oilers could chase but are any of them worth the cost of acquisition? Lastly, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots and Hot and Cold performers to recap the week, take in your feedback, and offer up our score predictions for what will be a very important weekend for the Oilers. As always, the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio was as busy as it was random. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

2022 has been a year of firsts at Southern Songs and Stories. Beginning with our first guest host, WNCW's Corrie Askew took stock of her favorite episodes of this series in the previous year. We went even further back in time to revisit Green Acres Music Hall with an episode summing up the first three podcasts on the beloved music venue, and focusing on previously unheard conversations with Green Acres alumni Bela Fleck, Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, John Cowan and Acoustic Syndicate. Speaking of Bela, we profiled him on his own episode which was based on a conversation we had at the IBMAs, one of many with artists there who will be featured in coming episodes. There was even an episode without a guest, when I asked the question “Why is live music so good?”, which was also made into an NFT. In addition, we collaborated with author and The String podcast host Craig Havighurst on an episode based on our conversation at the inaugural Earl Scruggs Music Festival, titled Southern Strings and Stories. And now, another first, a collaborative episode with a Christmas theme. Plus ukuleles. And Bigfoot. Cleveland County, NC is home to ukulele band The Dancing Fleas, and is also reported to be the stomping grounds of Knobby the Bigfoot (while it is definitely home of the Yeti, the mascot of Cleveland Community College) . Collaborating with band leader Jason Lineberger on the concept, script and production of this episode, we dreamed up an old time radio theater setting with his sprawling party band at the center of this tale. Amidst the backdrop of the grand Southern tradition of the Christmas Casserole Cook Off, the Fleas seek to recapture the spirit of the holiday season in a quest which finds them taking on a rival Poison tribute band, disdain for all things New Jersey, even Knobby himself. The Dancing Fleas performing at the White Horse Black Mountain Songs heard in this episode:“The Fleas Are Here!” by the Dancing Fleas“The Funky Flea” by the Dancing FleasThanks for visiting!

In the Himalayan foothills, it's called a Yeti or abominable snowman. In Russia they say Almasty. In Cazar, NC they call him Knobby. The rest of North America refers to them as Bigfoot or Sasquatch. Less than a decade ago, many who believed in aliens were called crazy or fanatic, paranoid, even. But now the United States actually has a SpaceForce dedicated to protecting our planet. So is it really hard to believe that there is a species of man-like creatures living in the wild and remote forests of North America? Let's sort through all the blurry photos, and shaky video and see if we can find some convincing evidence.

A small town in North Carolina quickly made a name for itself as it became the focus of these searches after multiple sightings beginning in 1978. Could these sightings be the town's beloved Knobby or simply cousin Clarence? Find out in this week's episode.

Scientists say the bald cypress trees that line North Carolina's Black River are among the oldest on Earth. APRIL LAISSLE/WFDD North Carolina is known for its natural features — think the Blue Ridge Mountains or the pristine beaches of the Outer Banks. Less attention though is given to its forests. That had listener Gayle Morris wondering: "Where in North Carolina can a person experience old-growth forests?" In short, the answer is along the banks of the Black River in eastern North Carolina, where towering bald cypress trees have stood sentry for more than 2,000 years. WFDD's April Laissle traveled there to learn more about what these trees can tell us about the state's evolving climate. On the River Just off a remote road about an hour outside of Wilmington, I'm following a group of researchers past an abandoned cabin and down a gravel trail that leads to the banks of the Black River. My companions today are dendrologists, scientists who study trees. Some have come from as far as the Czech Republic to study the ancient ones rooted under this river's murky waters. We all climb into kayaks and set off on the water. Old-growth bald cypresses line either side of the Black River in eastern North Carolina. APRIL LAISSLE/WFDD The further down the river we get, the older the trees look. Then, as we emerge from a cypress knee obstacle course, the canopy opens and suddenly we're in Jurassic Park. Knobby, moss-covered buttress roots jut out of the water, their grey trunks giving way to branches that sit almost perfectly flat – their bushy tops have long been knocked out by storms. Then finally, we come across The Old One, a gnarled bald cypress that, at age 2,600, is among the oldest trees in the world. It's been around since the early years of the Roman Republic, but it looks much like the rest of the trees in this area. That's because it likely isn't the oldest one here, it's just the one with the most solid trunk. The characteristic is critical for the technique used to date these trees, called coring. Coring Trees Each researcher is carrying an increment borer – a kind of T-shaped manual drill. It's what they use to take samples from trees. I watch as University of Tennessee researcher Savannah Collins-Key aims hers at a smaller tree and begins turning its top handle to drill into the trunk. She pulls out a perfectly cylindrical sample of what's inside of it and stores it in a plastic straw. Researcher Savannah Collins-Key shares a tree ring a sample she collected using an increment borer. APRIL LAISSLE/WFDD This tree, like the Old One, is solid all the way through, but there are many more in this forest that are rotted on the inside, yet still living. The more solid the core, the more comprehensive the core sample will be. The coring process is kind of like a mosquito bite for the tree – it doesn't really hurt it. And it yields critical information. “I sometimes call them like the first information superhighway, or the original thumb drive. There's tons of information in tree rings,” says Neil Pederson, an ecologist with the Harvard Forest who helped coordinate this trip. “Sometimes a tree will stop growing for a year around the base of the tree. And that happens for a variety of reasons. Sometimes drought, but sometimes other things. And all that information is stored in tree rings,” Pederson says. “So we can get the age of the tree, we can get growth rates, we can get changes in growth rates. And that all tells us a little bit more information about how these trees have lived. And we can use them to make inferences about what has happened in the past.” Pederson says in effect, these tree rings tell a story. And they can sometimes give clues about mysteries in human history too. Researchers used tree rings to determine that the worst drought in 800 years occurred the same year that the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island disappeared. Pederson and his team are coring trees along the Black River to do what's called a climate reconstruction, specifically to learn more about how this ecosystem has historically responded to hurricanes. They're selecting several trees in this area to create what he calls “a chorus” of perspectives about what has happened here. “The hope is that this data will be information for modelers to try to understand how future hurricanes might impact these systems,” says Pederson. Pederson and his team will spend the next few months traveling to old-growth forests along the East Coast for the same reason. “You put on your backpack, you get your straw, you get your increment borer and you just go looking for the oldest trees,” says Pederson. “I mean, like, don't tell anyone this, but that's what we do often. And so you're like, 'oh my gosh, I get paid to look for old trees.'” Keys to Survival Pederson is following in the footsteps of David Stahle, a dendrologist who teaches at the University of Arkansas. He's been studying the trees along the Black River since the 1980s. He says when he first drove along the roadway through the forest, he knew he'd hit something big. “Old trees are like old people. They don't hide their age that well,” says Stahle. “And so we just stopped right in the middle of the road and got out of the car. And we're dumbfounded by thousand-year-old trees on both sides of the highway.” Stahle set out to core those trees, and eventually, he came across the Old One. He says the cypresses have survived for so long in part because they're in an adverse growing environment. “The Black River is a nutrient-poor, tannin-stained stream, a little bit acidic, you know, really kind of low in natural fertility,” says Stahle. “And so the growth rates are extremely slow.” The environment was poor enough to hinder growth, but not quite bad enough to kill them. Their age is what helped them dodge the logging bullet, Stahle says. “They're very old trees. From a logging point of view, timber production point of view, they are decrepit, over mature, pecky and heart rotten,” says Stahle. “And those are all negatives when it comes to board footage.” Major storms also couldn't knock these trees out. Stahle says that's because as harsh winds blow in, the trees hold onto each other under the water. “And so if you're going to blow it over, you've got to blow the entire forest over,” says Stahle. “They'll snap off, especially a hollow cypress will snap off in a hurricane. But rarely will you see them uprooted.” Ghost Trees The continued longevity of these trees is something Stahle worries about though. He says human actions can seriously impact this ecosystem. “All kinds of industrial activity could be installed within the drainage basin of the Black River that could impact water quality, and, in fact, has impacted water quality of the Cape Fear and her tributary. So, you know, we know this story, right, we know the story of the anthropogenic climate change, the human impact on the environment in North Carolina, and Arkansas, and elsewhere in the United States. And it's just not a trivial problem.” Stahle says his research has also revealed insights into what the future may hold for these ecosystems if more isn't done to address climate change. Tree ring data suggest that it's only gotten wetter in the modern era due to warming temperatures. And with the sea level rising and the forest just two meters above it, these trees could soon be in dire straits. “With uncontrolled anthropogenic climate change, you know, they're going to be ghost trees in the future,” says Stahle. “Now, that's not tomorrow. It's maybe not for 100 years, maybe 500 years, but, you know, I'm confident we're gonna have to get a handle on the energy crisis.” Stahle says he has hope though. He sees enormous pressure, economic and otherwise, to address climate change. “But those things are hard to turn around,” he says. “So you don't want to mess with Mother Nature. And we are.” Stahle continues to advocate for conservation both at the state and federal levels. He plans to return to this river this month in search of more ancient trees, and the stories they have yet to tell.

It's been a busy week for your friends at the podcast this week, so unfortunately we weren't able to get a new episode together. So enjoy this episode from season 1 where Ben and Ash talk about Ralph McQuarrie! Original description: Welcome listeners to Season TWO of the Skyhoppers Podcast!! Not really. But we're officially past 100 episodes, and that's pretty neat. Not wanting to miss a beat, Ben and Ash spend some time this week discussing Ralph McQuarrie and the influence his concept art has had on Star Wars to this day, as well as a lot of the production design of the movies and how that ties into their identity. A bit of a loose episode, but there are very few tangents and some good discussion! Here's the link to the Imgur album of Ralph McQuarrie art we were looking at: https://imgur.com/gallery/Cj0ir
David Weatherly's 5th book in his expanding State Monsters series takes us to one of the original 13 colonies, North Carolina, a state close to David's heart as he grew up here. The Tar Heel state may not have the reputation of the some the USA's more notable cryptid hotbeds but you only have to mention the infamous case of the Beast of Bladenboro for people to take notice. What is it about North Carolina that seems to be so favourable to some creature that we seem to have a population of mysterious predators that keep re-appearing every 20 years or so. Whilst the Beast of Bladenboro occurred in the 1950s, other flaps of creatures taking domestic animals has occurred worryingly regularly. We also look at the numerous Black Panther sightings across the state going back decades as well as looking into North Carolina's most famous Bigfoot, Knobby and discuss some of the witnesses that had some very interesting encounters with a large hairy creature over the last 50 years. Of course, the Casey Hathaway case is also pondered upon as myself and David wonder just how a 3 year old boy could survive in sub-zero temperatures. Casey of course famously claimed a "bear" looked after him and kept him safe. We also touch on Michael Green and his footage of what he claimed was a Bigfoot, lured to appear on a thermal, which you can watch here: David's site is here: A big thank you as always to David for his time, company and conversation.

Plus, Bill reminds you to enjoy the October night sky, watch out for Bigfoot, and pick up your trash when you are out in our Carolina Outdoors!
(From The 10/03/2020 Show) Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, and Knobby are all names that this ‘larger than life’ legend has been called. Across the country for centuries, sightings of this mysterious creature have been reported – though with various names depending on the region. While this half-animal half-human is most famous for reportedly being located in the Pacific Northwest, Outdoor Guy Bill Bartee welcomes Christopher Lawing onto this segment of the Carolina Outdoors to speak on “Knobby's” local existence in Cleveland County, NC. This ‘local Bigfoot’ mystery has existed for centuries and has become a celebrated local in Marion, NC. Let's listen in and learn!

Yule love this week’s show, even if you’re a Humbug! Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol takes on an eighties upgrade with Bill Murray and Bobcat Goldthwait in Scrooged. Don’t wait for three ghosts to make you regret your choices today — tune in to TechnoRetro Dads early this morning, share, and enjoy all the fun and fandom with family, friends, and EarBuds for 77 minutes. We Love Our Cereal… …and the cereal companies like special cereals for Christmas. From the Cronut creator’s Christmas Morning Cereal to Lucky Charms Chocolatey Winter Cereal to Strawberry Krispies, the seasonal flavors are ready to be enjoyed by the spoonful (#ChillYourBowl). Perhaps the reason Ebenezar Scrooge was so grumpy is the notable lack of Christmas cereal in his day. TechnoRetro Arcade Our super-sized celebration of Superman’s 40th (80th) anniversary last week left out a very important element: video games. Superman’s video game debut was for the Atari 2600 console in the 1979 super-pixillated classic Superman. Six years later, Superman: The Game (see what they did there?) was released for home computers. To provide picky, pestering Scrooges with something worthy of complaint, the NES Superman game only had a vague resemblance to Superman in 1988. That same year, a full-sized arcade version of the Man of Steel was released by Taito. Best of all, the ultimate Superman video game has yet to arrive! Scrooged Frank Cross (Bill Murray), a television network executive with more dollars than sensitivity, faces a long night of regrets, repentance, and redemption with visits from three time-traveling ghosts. It’s A Christmas Carol for the ‘80s with a healthy, heaping spoonful of meta as life and fiction intersect on a live broadcast that’s likely to reduce at least one of the ‘Dads to tears — like, Niagara Falls! EarBuds Toy Catalog: Creative Toys The results of the third bracket of the EarBuds Toy Catalog are in as retrotastic toys that engaged the mind in creative ways went head-to-head in physics, chemistry, and engineering matchups that challenge the brain, hands, and eyes. Knobby flat screens like Etch A Sketch faced the colorful three-dimensional Tinker Toys. Artistic minds that need to knead found fun in yellow cans of Play-Doh as the modeling compound squared off against another drawing toy — Magnadoodle. Tune in to see who won!

Don’t forget to rate and review TechnoRetro Dads on iTunes, share us and with us on social media, vote in the EarBuds Christmas bracket, get TechnoRetro merch at TeePublic, and join discussions on Discord about toys, cereal, games, movies and/or shows from the ‘70s and ‘80s by giving the ‘Dads your feedback via voice mail at (209) 878-7323 or sending us your mp3dback via electronic-M to podcast@TechnoRetroDads.com.
