Ohio State men’s basketball beat reporter Adam Jardy talks everything Buckeyes on the latest episode of the BuckeyeXtra basketball podcast. In this edition, we discuss what we learned from Ohio State’s recent basketball practice, hear what coach Jake Diebler had to say, and mention how Michigan’s basketball coach is leaving for the NBA.

For a long time, fire research in the moist forests of the Pacific Northwest was dominated by two main assertions: that wildfires in the West Cascades are typically "high-severity, low frequency" (in other words, primarily characterized by stand-replacing fires that don't happen very often), and that Indigenous burning largely took place in prairies, river valleys and low-lying oak ecosystems. But extensive tree ring sampling over the last decade has shown that, in fact, these long-held assertions aren't telling the entire story. Our guest for this episode is Dr. Andrew Merschel, who is a post-doc at Oregon State University and lead scientist/co-director of the Tree Ring Lab at OSU. Andrew has spent years studying fire histories in the moist, doug fir, hemlock and cedar-dominated forests of the West Cascades by analyzing stumps and tree core samples across the PNW. His work with the Tree Ring Lab has called to question many of our longest-held assumptions about how fires burned in the Pacific Northwest prior to colonization—and the takeaway is that it's not nearly as straightforward as we once thought.  Andrew spoke about how fire "edits" forests over time, how these "edits" are crucial to the development of biodiversity, mature trees and old growth stands, and how we can use what we now know about "Westside" fire histories to inform management practices and wildfire resilience measures. We also spoke about how fire history on the Westside is not spatially or temporally stable, and that it doesn't operate on a cyclical basis; he and his team of research assistants and grad students have found, time and again, that fire histories can change based on what side of a ridge they're on, what part of a watershed they're in, what aspect they're at—making it a fascinating place to research how fire has interacted with the landscape over the last millennia. As Andrew says in this episode: "[In the East Cascades], I can tell you we'll find fire every 15 years at every site we go to. On the Westside it's an adventure, you don't know the story of each place until you get out there."  We also spoke about how this research intersects with Indigenous history, how it can be used to inform management decisions, and how Andrew's team collaborates with community groups, tribes, land management agencies and others to help them establish a better understanding of fire history in specific areas.  If you've ever had questions about how research can inform forest management decisions, about how researchers discern between Indigenous fire use and lightning-caused fires, or how we come to understand a place's relationship with fire over time, this is the episode for you.  To learn more about the Tree Ring Lab, check out their website and consider reading up on some of their recent (and fascinating!) research from the West Cascades.  To support Life with Fire, consider donating to our Patreon, writing us a review on Apple Podcasts, or telling a friend about us!

The etymology of “discourage” is de-hearted — courage taken away. Four ways to get it back, why platforms aren't witness, and an original closing song.Crystal Clear proves again how delusional she is on this episode where she waxes philosophic on the word discourage — cor, Latin for heart, so to discourage is to take the heart out, and to encourage is to put it back. Four ways to re-heart that aren't the kitten-on-a-blanket poster version:Anger over reassurance — indignation re-hearts faster than “you can do it,” and it's why “you can't” sometimes works better.Find a witness — courage is partly social, which is the whole problem with what platforms sell as witness.One small concrete move — the next single step shrinks the mountain back to a molehill.Reconnect to the stakes — discouragement is usually the stakes dimming. Remember what you refuse to lose.Plus: aim the anger somewhere that moves. The open records requests still outstanding — OSU (filed Feb 23) and the Stony Brook FOIL on the 2007 Morgellons research — and an invitation to file your own.Closing original song "Collections"— claps in triplets, a sleepy acoustic loop, and a lyrical thesis on why there's no influencer presence here: no name in the public domain, but in the private sphere I have no fear. They capitalize on all of our lives. They need us more than we need them.For the SEO demons I love so much: Morgellons, More Morgellons podcast, Crystal Clear, etymology of courage, discouragement, FOIA, FOIL request, open records at OSU Tulsa, Stony Brook NY Morgellons research, platform capture, attention economy, why I have no social media but still somehow manage to be the most self-absorbed humanborg on the planet, and original music by The Worms. “We can't say no to pain, but we can say no to suffering. I can transmute fear into anger and isolation into connection.”-CC

Should Ohio State Have the Big Ten's Best Offense in 2026? Tempo, Efficiency, and a Tougher ScheduleTony Gerdeman and Tom Orr open by promoting Tony's new “Time and Change Will Surely Show” podcast on Buckeye Insiders, then shift to whether Ohio State should have the Big Ten's best offense this season and what could limit it. They discuss how Ohio State's pace has slowed under Ryan Day to reduce wear and injury exposure, making efficiency more important, and note last year's offense dropped to fifth in Big Ten scoring and was only four points per game better than Iowa. With a deeper roster, a veteran quarterback and play-caller, and more challenging games (including trips to Texas, Iowa, Indiana, USC, and Nebraska plus Oregon and Michigan at home), they debate whether OSU must be more aggressive while recognizing stronger defenses may cap the numbers.00:00 Welcome and Banter00:21 New Podcast Announcement01:06 Quarterback Episode Breakdown02:13 Subscribe and Website Launch03:16 Will OSU Lead Big Ten Offense04:06 Tempo Versus Efficiency06:31 Depth and Injury Management07:51 Schedule Forces Aggression10:38 Last Year Scoring Reality Check11:43 Why Offense Improves in 202613:53 Wrap Up and Call to Action

Photo: Siletz tribal members Todd Logan, Joshua Rilatos, and Dylan Gorman work next to anatomic pathologist Kurt Williams of the Oregon State University necropsy team on November 18, 2025, The tribe removed the whale’s blubber, bones, and baleen for cultural use, while the OSU crew took away tissue samples for diagnostic testing. (Jens Odegaard / Oregon State University) A group of Siletz Indians in Oregon are holding a presentation this Saturday to honor a humpback whale that washed ashore in Lincoln County last fall and died. As KLCC's Brian Bull reports, it is to help non-Natives understand the historical and cultural significance of these mammals. The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians (CTSI) sent a team in mid-November to do a traditional salvage of the whale, a common practice for coastal Native people for centuries. Lisa Norton, CTSI's chief administrative officer, and several others will discuss whales through storytelling, in a welcoming and open space near the Amanda Trail in Yachats. Norton hopes the audience leaves with one main takeaway. “Gaining and understanding of what it meant to us as a people, as individuals. And for those who were already connected with the whale, to understand that connection a little bit deeper or maybe understand that that connection isn’t over. And that it will live on in the stories that we do tell.” Norton says CTSI's cultural and natural resources department will eventually decide what will be done with the whale's bones and other materials. Ḵaayák'w Brandon Gomez introduces the Wind Dancer yaakw and asks permission to come ashore at Auke Recreation Area on June 2, 2026. (Photo: Yvonne Krumrey / KTOO) Thirteen canoes bringing Alaska Native paddlers from across Southeast Alaska and Canada arrived in Juneau, Alaska Tuesday afternoon. The canoes landed in two separate groups — one in downtown Juneau and the other at a traditional Aak’w (AHK) village site, north of town, as KTOO's Yvonne Krumrey reports. Áak'w Kwáan Elder Seikoonie Fran Houston waits on the shore at Auke Recreation Area as yaakw (canoes) enter the bay. “It’s going to be good to see family and family and family and friends, and it’s a beautiful day, so the ancestors are happy also.” Every other June, more than 100 paddlers arrive in Juneau this way to kick off Celebration, a gathering of Alaska Native people celebrating cultural revitalization. Sealaska Heritage Institute started the event more than four decades ago. They come to Celebration the old-fashioned way — paddling yaakw that were carved for this occasion. Some travel from as far north as the Yukon. “My name is Ughąts'etsӓna Ma. I'm Crow Clan. We’re from Dakwäkäda, Haines Junction, Yukon… We’re looking to celebrate now.” Ughąts'etsӓna Ma Cheyenne Sparvier-Kinney introduces her boat to the shore. Later, she reflects on the multi-day journey down Lynn Canal. “The journey was great. It was really a healing journey for a lot of us, not just our boat, but from the experiences that we’ve shared together. Yeah, it’s a healing journey for all of us.” Others, like ShaaL'aanee Brandon Ware, are from as far south as Petersburg. This was the community's first time sending a canoe to Celebration. “Gunalcheesh for having us. We are so grateful to be here. Forgive me if I miss protocol, this is our first journey in over 100 years.” In downtown Juneau, three yaakw make their way to shore as hundreds stand watching. As the yaakw neared, Shangukeidí Casey Moats stands up to greet the crowd. “I had heard that I would never know my language, I’d never belong to a clan, I’d never have a name, I wouldn’t know my songs, and to do this means everything in the whole world.” X'ash Kugé ka Yaanasax Barbara Cadiente-Nelson is a council member and secretary at Douglas Indian Association. She was one of the original planners for the first-ever Celebration in 1982. As she watches the yaakw arrive downtown, she says that for Alaska Native culture to continue to flourish, the next generation has to be grounded in place. “When you take a look around and you see our people of all ages and our youth, we are, yeah, and the young people that are singing and dancing, that they’re connected to place, they’re understanding and growing in their responsibility as Lingít, Haida, Tsimshians.” Celebration officially starts Wednesday, with a Grand Entrance parade into Centennial Hall downtown. Over the coming days, there will be numerous events and ceremonies dedicated to honor and uplift Alaska Native culture.

What other national title odds jump out at us? * How do the Heisman odds look for Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith? * Speaking of Sayin, he seems to have a decent amount of critics this offseason. What does Dan Hope think about that? * What does the future of the College Football Playoff look like? * Are we on the verge of the NCAA going to a "5-in-5" model? (Five years for athletes to play five seasons.) * Who will be second on the Buckeyes in receiving yards and receptions this season? Who will be third in those categories? * Who will be second in rushing yards this year for OSU? * The NCAA denied Brendan Sorsby's request to be reinstated. What do we think will ultimately end up happening with Sorsby's eligibility? That and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.
