About Our Guest: Tonya Roy is Navajo, who grew up in Colorado and has lived in the Sweetwater AZ, area for the last 14 years. She currently discusses her experiences with Bigfoot, Skinwalkers, Ghosts and Aliens and has also had sightings of Little People, Serpents and Ghosts within her area as well as a Troll and a white “ Slender Man”. Many of these sightings have been too close for comfort for Tanya, having been right in her own backyard. The Navajo Nation seems to be an area which many locals consider to be a “perfect storm “ for High Strangeness. She is currently writing a fictional book on Skinwalkers.

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, is delighted to get a chance to catch up with Dr. Luz Huntington-Moskos about environmental health and disaster preparedness in Kentucky. Luz was last on the program in 2021, when the Center was fairly new and today we'll get to hear how things have evolved since then. This program is a follow-up to our May 19th conversation with Luz's colleagues at CIEHS, Cat Aiton & Sarah Jump - Listen at https://soundcloud.com/wfmp-forward-radio/sustainability-now-cat-aiton-sarah-jump-uofl-center-for-integrative-environmental-health-science-5-19-25 In addition to serving on the UofL Sustainability Council, Luz is an Associate Professor of Nursing Education at the University of Louisville and Director of the Community Engagement Core at UofL's Center for Integrative Environmental Health Sciences. Learn more at https://louisville.edu/ciehs/cores/cec/cec Dr. Huntington-Moskos' research has focused on the prevention of lung cancer by addressing secondhand smoke and radon exposure in the homes of low-income families with children. Using a life course perspective, she is interested in addressing cancer prevention early in the trajectory of a child's life through the use of home testing for chronic environmental exposures. Her educational background includes a strong foundation in maternal child health and health disparities. As a recipient of two Maternal Child Health Bureau (MCHB) traineeships, she completed specialized training in child health theory, growth/development and adolescent resiliency. Her PhD dissertation examined the impact of tobacco use behaviors and secondhand smoke exposure on the cardiovascular health of rural adolescents. As a postdoctoral scholar with the Bridging Research Efforts and Advocacy Toward Healthy Environments (BREATHE) research team at the University of Kentucky, College of Nursing, she assisted in participant recruitment and expanded her knowledge of intervention research and home testing. As a co-investigator, funded by a National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) diversity supplement, she examined the influence of having children in the home and the completion of home testing for radon and secondhand smoke. She has experience working with under-resourced communities during her service in the United States Peace Corps, as a registered nurse working in inner city Baltimore and on the Navajo Nation.

On the surface, Diné author Daniel Vandever's picture books might appear to be straightforward stories, but the messages about the power of imagination and adventure in his books are imbued with layers of meaning. In his book Fall in Line, Holden!, a little boy breaks free from the constraints of rules and discipline by using his imagination. On a deeper level, the book speaks to the history of Indian Boarding Schools in pushing cultural assimilation. Likewise, in his wordless picture book Herizon, a girl goes on a magic scarf ride to find her lost sheep. This book is imbued with symbolism about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) epidemic, as well as cultural references to the Navajo Nation. Herizon was nominated to represent New Mexico at the 2024 National Book Festival.

Diné Film Industry -this segment is about what possibilities could be instore for the Navajo Nation theatrically now that Hollywood has been on the decline with its culture and local celebrity residence.#Current_State_Of_The_Deepstate

In dieser Folge widmen wir uns einem Thema, das in vielen Reiserouten oft nur am Rand auftaucht – dabei verdient es viel mehr Aufmerksamkeit: die indigene Bevölkerung der USA. Wir sprechen über Vielfalt statt Verallgemeinerung, über Stämme wie die Navajo, Hopi oder Pueblo und über das kulturelle Erbe, das heute noch überall spürbar ist – ob in den beeindruckenden Lehmziegelbauten von Taos Pueblo oder den Ruinen der Chaco Culture. Wusstet ihr zum Beispiel, dass die Navajo Nation größer ist als Bayern? Oder dass Taos Pueblo zu den ältesten dauerhaft bewohnten Siedlungen Nordamerikas gehört? Es geht um Geschichte, um Sprache (Stichwort Windtalker!), um Stereotype – und um das heutige Zusammenleben. Was begegnet Reisenden auf authentische Weise, was bleibt Folklore? Und wo gibt es auch heute noch Spannungen oder Missverständnisse? Eine Folge voller Aha-Momente, Fragen und Respekt – für alle, die nicht nur Landschaften entdecken, sondern auch den Geschichten dahinter zuhören wollen.

Navajo Poly Ticks -this segment revists past episodes and segments as to why the contradiction of leadership on the Navajo Nation seems to heavily relied on a failing democratic system that adds a dangerous amount of nepotism, favoritism and witchcraft to the mix which may be the downfall of the Navajo Nation.#John_Carroll_University_Immersion_Group

Angel Tadytin shares the epic story of her first 50-mile trail race, and how it unfolded in unexpected and magical ways. Tadytin is a wife, mother, social worker, and ultra runner, and she is from the Navajo Nation. She and her family currently live in Mesa, Arizona, but she's originally from Page, Arizona, and the surrounding area. Tadytin is also a lifelong hiker and outdoor explorer, and a longtime weightlifter. In addition, Tadytin is a community builder and currently is a board member of Native Women Run (NWR), a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering and supporting native women in running. The event that is at the center of this story is the Antelope Canyon Ultras 50 mile trail race, which goes through the land that Tadytin grew up on. The longest race Tadytin had ever run before was 55 km (34 miles), also at Antelope Canyon. Not only had Tadytin never run 50 miles before, she'd never wanted to run 50 miles. She didn't even commit to this 50-miler until a month before the event. So, her training did not take a conventional path: most athletes would have started training for an event like this several months beforehand, and they'd have run several long runs of 20 or more miles in preparation. Tadytin's longest run leading into the event was 16 miles, which she ran once. The reasons why Tadytin decided to run this 50 mile event, and the strength, support, connection, and experience that carried her through and to the end is what this story is all about.  How to Keep Up with Angel Tadytin Instagram: @angels_ventures Mentioned in This Episode Native Women Run: @native_women_run To support WRS, please rate and review the show iTunes/Apple:⁠ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/womens-running-stories/id1495427631⁠ Spotify:⁠ https://open.spotify.com/show/4F8Hr2RysbV4fdwNhiMAXc?si=1c5e18155b4b44fa⁠ Music Credits Cormac O'Regan, of⁠ Playtoh⁠ ⁠Coma-Media⁠, via⁠ Pixabay⁠ ⁠RomanBelov⁠, via⁠ Pixabay⁠ SergePavkinMusic⁠, via⁠ Pixabay⁠ ⁠aidanpinsent⁠, via ⁠Pixabay ⁠penguinmusic⁠, via⁠ Pixabay⁠ ⁠⁠Rockot⁠, via⁠ Pixabay⁠ Ways to Connect and Engage with Women's Running Stories Over 50, Sub 20, 5k Project Instagram:⁠ @over50sub20_5k_project⁠ WRS Instagram:⁠ @womensrunningstories⁠ Facebook:⁠ facebook.com/WomensRunningStories⁠ Website:⁠ womensrunningstories.com⁠ Women's Running Stories is a proud member of the Evergreen network:⁠ https://evergreenpodcasts.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of "90 Miles from Needles," host Chris Clarke sits down with Teal Lehto, a passionate water rights activist also known on social media as Western Water Girl. Teal shares insights into her work on public lands protection, the challenges posed by current legislative threats to environment-focused organizations, and the critical issues facing the Colorado River Basin. The episode delves deep into the complexities of water politics across Southwestern U.S. deserts. Teal discusses the antiquated water usage system governed by the doctrine of prior appropriation and its impact on current water scarcities. The conversation explores the political stand-off between upper and lower basin states within the Colorado River framework, highlighting the contentious role agriculture, particularly alfalfa farming, plays in the ongoing water crisis. Reflecting on her journey from frustrated activist to social media influencer, Teal elucidates how she has become a vital communicator of water issues, navigating both support and the vitriol commonly aimed at women in digital spaces. Key Takeaways: Advocacy Amidst Executive Orders: Teal explores current executive orders threatening public lands and non-profit environmental groups, emphasizing their purpose to dismantle the protections that keep these landscapes safe. Colorado River Basin Stalemate: The historical water distribution system faces scrutiny as upper and lower basin states stall on new guidelines essential for preserving water resources. Social Media as a Platform for Change: Teal's rise as Western Water Girl began as a reaction to being sidelined; now she uses Instagram and TikTok to educate thousands on water issues. Prominent Issues in Water Management: The widespread impact of alfalfa farming on water resources underlines a significant yet under-addressed element of Western water politics. The Influence of Engaging Narratives: Authentic content creation on TikTok significantly impacts environmental communication, allowing Western Water Girl to reach and inspire a broad audience. Notable Quotes: "I never started my platform expecting it to blow up. Like, I literally told my partner that if five people see my video, it'll make me feel better." - Teal Lehto "You can actually have a pretty direct impact on what side of the Internet somebody's content goes to just by leaving a comment." - Teal Lehto "People are really into engaging with water equity because it's so mind-blowing to learn the Navajo Nation only has running water in one out of each three homes." - Teal Lehto Resources: Teal Lehto on Social Media: Follow @westernwatergirl on TikTok and Instagram for updates and education on water politics. 90 Miles from Needles Podcast Website: For more episodes and donation opportunities, visit 90MilesFromNeedles.com (https://90milesfromneedles.com).Become a desert defender!: https://90milesfromneedles.com/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on the News Reel, we speak with Andrew Christiansen, reporter at the Moab Times Independent, about a section of the Navajo Nation in San Juan County that recently got running water for the first time. We also discuss the Moab Museum's new co-directorship system, which was set up after the previous director was fired earlier this year. Plus, a quick update about the county's planning and zoning department, which is still struggling to fill the director position amidst a major overhaul of the land use code. - Show Notes - • A small Navajo community celebrates running water milestone after 25 years https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/a-precious-life-source-a-small-navajo-community-celebrates-running-water-milestone-after-25-years/ • Grand County hires recruiter to fill key vacancies https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/grand-county-hires-recruiter-to-fill-key-vacancies/ • Moab Museum shifts to co-leadership after director's removal https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/moab-museum-shifts-to-co-leadership-after-directors-removal/

Host Diana Korte speaks with award-winning journalist and novelist Anne Hillerman, author of 18 books, whose newest title is SHADOW OF THE SOLSTICE (#10 in her Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito series). In the new book, Navajo Nation police are on high alert when a U.S. Cabinet Secretary schedules an unprecedented trip to the little Navajo town of Shiprock, New Mexico. The visit coincides with a plan to resume uranium mining along the Navajo Nation border. Tensions around the official's arrival escalate when the body of a stranger is found nearby. Is it coincidence that a cult with a propensity for violence arrives at a private camp outside Shiprock the same week to celebrate the summer solstice?Anne Hillerman was approached several years ago by Robert Redford and George R.R. Martin to create the popular tv series, “Dark Wind,” now in its third season that is based on her and her dad's (Tony Hillerman) crime novels.            

Think of a mother living in a remote village in Alaska. It's a cold morning, temperatures well below freezing, and she needs urgent medical care for her child—but there's no road connecting her village to any hospital. Her only hope is a plane or a boat, neither of which might arrive in time. Across America, thousands of Native Americans face similar hurdles every day—lack of access to basic healthcare, clean water, and enough nutrition. This is not a challenge of the distant past; it's happening today, in the wealthiest country in the world. I first met Roselyn Tso at last year's Rosenman Symposium, where her talk left a profound impression on me. Her insights into the healthcare barriers that tribal communities face struck a deep chord, highlighting an urgent issue that many of us rarely think about. Stepping forward to tackle these issues head-on is Roselyn, a proud Navajo Nation citizen who has dedicated her life to improving healthcare for American Indians and Alaska Natives. As Director of the Indian Health Service (IHS) from 2022 to 2025, Roselyn managed healthcare delivery to approximately 2.8 million individuals, becoming the first Navajo citizen and second woman to ever hold this role. Her career spans more than four decades, each day driven by a deep personal commitment shaped by her own upbringing on the Navajo reservation. Roselyn believes real solutions require more than just medicine—they demand community engagement, cultural sensitivity, and innovation. Under her leadership, Indian Health Service championed initiatives addressing food insecurity, transportation challenges, and infrastructure gaps, fundamentally reshaping what healthcare means in tribal communities. In our conversation, Roselyn shares her powerful personal journey, the realities faced by Native communities, and her visionary approach to leadership and collaboration. She offers compelling insights into the systemic changes needed to make healthcare truly equitable and effective. Do you have thoughts on this episode or ideas for future guests?

00:00–15:00 | Ancient Civilizations and Hidden Histories The episode kicks off with intros and banter about new show time. Sam and Mike dive into ancient mysteries, starting with the Olmec civilization. They discuss theories about pre-Mayan writing, floating gardens, and the Olmec disappearance. Sam references Dr. Narco Longo's theory that Islam may have started in ancient Mexico. The conversation shifts to ancient mounds in Ohio and architectural similarities with UK structures.

They laugh about how viewers think there's a plan or agenda behind the content. They reflect on the bizarre coherence the wheel of topics seems to create every episode. Paranormal hotspots in Arizona are revisited, including Sedona and potential succubus/incubus experiences. 60:00–75:00 | Taco Bell Conspiracy (Yes, Really) They go full internet absurdity with a Taco Bell update video. New items include Flamin' Hot Cheeto burritos, a cheese shell taco for keto fans, and Taco Bell launching a "Live Más Café".

Happy National Lineman Appreciation Day to all our Line Life Podcast listeners! To celebrate all the hard-working lineworkers out there, we are releasing a special episode today focused on Arthur William Muñoz, a journeyman lineworker for Salt River Project (SRP) in Arizona. He has been in the trade for 23 years and progressed from a trades helper to a lead lineman and working foreman to a section supervisor. During this episode, Art talks about what it was like to win the "David G. Hollis Award for Outstanding Apprentice at SRP," overcome his fear of heights to scale the 80-ft "Godzilla" pole and restore power following monsoons and microbursts.  He is also one of several SRP lineworkers who has volunteered his time and skillset for the Light Up Navajo project. For 2025, SRP sent two crews to the Navajo Nation to join lineworkers from 44 utility companies across 20 states. The volunteer lineworkers are connecting homes to the grid in remote areas of the Navajo Nation, where 70% of all US households without power are located. Of the 56,000 homes on the Navajo Nation, about 10,470, or about 25%, do not have electricity.   To learn more about Light Up Navajo VI, look for a future article in T&D World magazine and listen to the audio stories in our ICYMI series for our Line Life Podcast.

But there is a variety—the Southwest peach—that grows in this arid landscape, and Native communities have cultivated this tree since the 1600s. But many of the orchards were intentionally destroyed by colonizers hundreds of years ago, and the remaining trees are now scattered across the region.A local scientist and member of the Navajo Nation is on a mission to track down Southwest peach trees so we can learn more about how these peaches are so well-suited to grow in the desert.At a live event in Salt Lake City in March, Host Flora Lichtman spoke with Reagan Wytsalucy, plant scientist and assistant professor at Utah State University Extension in San Juan County, Utah. She researches traditional Native American crops, including the Southwest peach.Meet Lokiceratops, A Giant Dinosaur With Blade-Like HornsThe Intermountain West is a dinosaur nerd's dream because it's such a hotspot for fossils. Some of the most famous dino fossils in the world, like T. rex, triceratops, and stegosaurus can be found in western North America. So, of course, Science Friday couldn't go to Salt Lake City, Utah, without digging into some dinosaur science.At a live event in Salt Lake City in March, Host Ira Flatow spoke with the scientists behind the discovery of Lokiceratops, a large dinosaur with impressive horns that was unveiled in 2024. Dr. Mark Loewen, vertebrate paleontologist at the University of Utah and the Natural History Museum of Utah; and Savhannah Carpenter, paleontologist and school outreach coordinator at the Natural History Museum of Utah, discuss how they figured out Loki was a new dinosaur, the process of describing and naming the fossil, and what it taught them about dino evolution.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

At least one tribal library in New Mexico will have to close after the Trump Administration abruptly canceled federal grants administered through the Institute for Museum and Library Services. Many more libraries and museums in the state and around the country are forced to cut hours, eliminate staff, cancel traditional programs, and curb purchases for new books and other materials. They are among the latest in the on-going efforts by the Trump Administration to drastically change federal services. Those cuts also include supplements to low-income Navajo Nation citizens and hundreds more Native Americans nationwide who rely on the funds to help them heat their homes in the winter. We'll get the latest rundown of staff and funding reductions by the federal government. GUESTS Dr. April Counceller (Alutiiq tribal member of the Sun'aq Tribe of Kodiak), executive director of the Alutiiq Museum & Archaeological Repository Cassandra Osterloh (Cherokee Nation), New Mexico State Library tribal libraries program coordinator Alicia Allard, tribal Head Start consultant and specialist for Little Hawk Consulting Jill Falcon Ramaker (Turtle Mountain Anishinaabe), assistant professor in Indigenous food systems and land practices and director of Buffalo Nations Food Sovereignty at Montana State University Andrea Pesina (Isleta Pueblo), executive director of Isleta Head Start & Child Care and president of the National Indian Head Start Directors Association

EP #317 - The Gift of Shadow Work - An Interview featuring Shaman, Granddaughter Crow   I am honored to welcome Granddaughter Crow to Empowering Chats. Granddaughter Crow is a member of the Navajo Nation and a Shaman. She is also the author of Shamanism and Your Shadow. In this chat we dive into the meaning of symbols, spirit animals and ancient wisdoms. Our main focus and the main theme in her book revolves around shadow work. Granddaughter Crow walks us through the path of using spirit animals as guides to help us get to know our inner selves as well as our shadow side. According to Granddaughter Crow, working with our shadow side is a sacred practice and it does not have to be “scary” or “dark” as it is sometimes portrayed in our culture. It is about recognizing the unseen and hidden aspects of the self. When the shadow is illuminated is when the gifts are also shown. According to Granddaughter Crow working with our shadow is a sacred practice that can help us to re-balance and trust.  She likens it to the opening of a lotus flower which has many layers and sometimes the layers only appear when we are ready to accept and embrace our shadow.

Elliot Ross is a photographer and writer whose work focuses on the intersection of landscape, identity, and justice in the American West. His images have appeared in Time, National Geographic, and The New York Times, and he's known for deeply researched, long-term projects that combine striking visual storytelling with a journalist's rigor. Whether he's documenting water access on the Navajo Nation or tracing the contours of Glen Canyon as it reemerges, Elliot brings a rare mix of artistry, empathy, and precision to every assignment. Born in Taiwan and raised on the eastern plains of Colorado, Elliot grew up between cultures and landscapes—an experience that shaped both his worldview and his creative path. He picked up a camera early, inspired by his grandmother's family albums, and later earned a full-ride to the Savannah College of Art and Design. After college, he cut his teeth in New York City, assisting some of the most high-profile portrait and fashion photographers in the industry. All the while, he was quietly dreaming about building a career on his own terms—one rooted in storytelling, purpose, and the landscapes he still called home. In this episode, we talk about the early experiences that shaped his artistic voice, the evolution of his career, and how he's learned to navigate the demands of both commercial and documentary work. Elliot shares the backstory of his recent Time magazine cover story on water equity in the West, a project that involved years of reporting, deep community ties, and even a return to the classroom. We also discuss his thoughts on creative endurance, working across political divides, and the role of photography in fostering empathy and connection. I'd encourage you to visit Elliot's website and dig deeper into all of his work, especially his project A Question of Balance, which became the Time magazine feature. You can find links to everything in the episode notes.

Thank you all !!! About Our Guest: Derrick Sole has been a long time reader of old newspaper articles of the odd unearthed from online digital newspaper archives from around the world. Looking at history through this lens has always been one of his, call it, past times. One could say it's fun. Currently though, he has stepped up that custom to include the protracted process of attempting to archive as much of these unusual and odd articles confined by time that, once found, get dusted off and given their day in the light once more. These now relics of a bygone era and their tales of high strangeness get neatly tucked away within the Odd Old News Substack, nested there for everyones entertainment, but also specifically for research purposes for himself and others. Why, one might ask, would someone spend hours and hours reading the old tombs of dusty newspapers, chasing down these gems of our history. Well, It all started one day long ago with a question, he wanted to see if there where any old newspaper articles about giant hairy wild men{What they used to call Big Foot} reported on in the last 200+ years or so. Low and behold, there were, and lots of them. The search was now on and soon expanded to other topics derived from a lifetime of interest that he has had in all things of high strangeness. Sea monsters, ghost, lost cities, wild man and more. With thousands of articles at present in the archive and what seems like an uninterrupted amount more to mine from time, Odd Old News is slowly making it easier for others to unmask the odd.

But halfway through a story on a Navajo reservation, Joseph's equipment completely shut down—no warning, no explanation. Maybe it was just a technical glitch. Or maybe, we were talking about something we weren't supposed to.”Some places don't want to be forgotten. Some stories don't want to be told.Please remember to subscribe, thanks for listening!

What if the key to solving our rising materials costs and hurdles to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries lies in a radical shift in thinking—laying solar panels directly on the ground and using the cheap electrons they produce to make hydrogen?When I first heard of Erthos, I thought, like many of you I'm sure, “What a radical idea! Will that even work? Lay the panels directly on the ground???” Yet, the more I learned about the company, it's leadership, and their approach to creating the cheapest cost of solar energy, I decided I needed to suspend my reservations and go see it for myself. And, to my surprise, Jim Tyler and his all-star leadership team didn't even want to talk to me about the “earth-mounted solar” innovation, and instead, focused much of the attention and time on their next big move - Hydrogen!Jim Tyler, CEO of Erthos, has been on a mission to reduce the cost of solar for a long time. He's been part of some of the most iconic and important innovations in the solar industry, and was one of the early pioneers to focus on driving cost out of the installation process. With his background in semiconductors, industrial energy, and food processing, Jim saw an even bigger opportunity: using low-cost, DC-coupled solar to produce hydrogen in the most cost-effective way possible.In this conversation, Jim explains why Erthos' culture of breaking industry norms is now driving them into hydrogen—and how their disruptive approach could redefine the future of clean energy. Regardless what you think of Erthos, there's no denying that Jim and his team are yet again shaking up the industry and forcing people to think different.Expect to learn:Why earth-mounted solar could push the cost of solar energy closer to zero.Why industrial steam—one of the largest energy demands globally—could be the breakthrough use case for green hydrogen.How Erthos' created a direct DC-to-hydrogen system that eliminates inefficienciesWhy investors from Tesla, SpaceX, and First Solar are betting on this model.Why the Navajo Nation could become a key hub for renewable energy manufacturing—and how solar could drive jobs and economic growth in the region.I'm curious to hear your thoughts, skeptical or otherwise, once you've had a chance to give this a listen!And we have some fun b-roll from or visit to Jim's office, testing lab and skunk-works facility where they're building their hydrogen electrolyzer prototypes.If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 730 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling:
