For four decades, Buckmasters and Yamaha have shared more than a sponsorship - they've shared a vision, a commitment to the outdoors, and a partnership built on trust. In this special 40th Anniversary podcast episode, Buckmasters founder and host Jackie Bushman sits down with Rit of Yamaha to reflect on the early days of Buckmasters, what Yamaha saw in the organization before it became the iconic brand hunters know today, and the memories, milestones, and moments that have defined this remarkable relationship. Together, they revisit the history of both brands, discuss how the outdoor industry has evolved over the years, and share their thoughts on what lies ahead for Buckmasters and Yamaha in the future.

“I'd  like to propose a toast to the garden, to this beautiful planet, and to the gardener. You know,  some people have gardens, some people don't. But, they need to have a garden because Grandfather used to say, “We are all a garden in the world." So, I give thanks to the garden and the gardener.” —Carlo MontesantiAnd so, we have gathered to the final course in this banquet, Dolce. Dessert. Here at this table, we reflect on inheritance. Returning once more to conversations with Carlo Montesanti, Jessie Jowers, and Arianna Gelpke, this episode lingers on to ask if we can remember landscapes, and if we can do so over a shared meal. What does it mean to grow (food, family, and tradition), in a world that has increasingly been shaped by speed, extraction, automation and touristic ideals? Amidst these changes, what remnants will we be able to conserve? In "Dolce," we continue our walk at Slow Life Family Farm, moving between memory, archaeology and rituals made at the dinner table and reflect on the legacy of slow food—that it is not a cuisine and, maybe even, not exclusive to the romantic imagings of Italian provincial life. Perhaps, it is about the way we attend to Earth and care for its continuity, asking not what we can take from it, but what we can give in return. We also join Arianna at Corzano e Paterno to discuss the process of "reading the grapes" and the factors that influence wine-making. This episode contemplates sweetness as something more than a flavour, as a longing for ways of living that keep us in relation to one another and the land which feeds us. Fat of The Land is a series that asks us what we mean when we look for connection between people and the land. Following a desire for real relation, for deliciousness, and for slowness, each episode traces what happens when we follow this desire. This episode is brought to you by generous sponsorships from Ritū and Terra Elaÿa. Music and sound design in this episode is brought to you from the For The Wild Studio.Thank you to Carlo and Jessie of Slow Life Family Farm and Arianna of Fattoria Corzano and Paterno  for joining us in conversation.BiographiesCarlo Montesanti: Born in Siracusa, Carlo is an esteemed English-speaking guide in Eastern Sicily, known for his work with BBC nature documentaries and Netflix's Chef's Table series.Jessie Jowers: With a passion for the traditional uses of plants, Jessie brings a wealth of knowledge about local crafts, foods, and medicines to our farm's daily life. Arianna Gelpke: Arianna Gelpke is a representative of Fattoria Corzano and Paterno, working in the family farm, and wine, cheese and oil production. She is passionate for nature and working with the land in the pursuit of sustainable agriculture and high-quality artisan produce.

Fat of The Land, Episode 4, Contorni“Mother Earth is really asking us to touch the soil… it's not just enough to pray. We need to put our hands in the soil.”  —Carlo MontesantiContorni. The side dishes, or the surroundings. In this fourth episode of our series Fat of The Land, we turn towards the question of taste: how it is cultivated and remembered. Through conversations with Carlo Montesanti and Arianna Gelpke, the episode traces the shifting contours of Italian food culture amid tourism, commercialisation, supermarket convenience, and the global appetite for an imagined “Italian cuisine.” What happens to taste when food becomes spectacle, an export or a brand? And, what tastes are lost? Can they ever be reclaimed?Moving across Sicily and Tuscany, this episode reflects on taste as not just as a matter of preference but as a way of reading the earth. Contorni provokes us to consider taste in all of its forms: sensorial, cultural, economic and ecological. What desires for taste reveal about hunger itself: hunger for nourishment, nostalgia, identity, and connection to a place past… or of the now. Fat of The Land is a series that asks us what we mean when we look for connection between people and the land.

Stāsta komponiste, literāte, JVLMA docētāja Gundega Šmite; pārraides producente Rūta Paula Ne vienam vien, arī man pašai, pirms par savām otrajām mājām sāku saukt saulaino Grieķiju, kā pirmā asociācija par grieķu tautas dejām nāk prātā sirtaki, kuru izpilda, dejotājiem izvietojoties garenā virtenē, uzliekot rokas uz kaimiņa pleciem un virzoties, veikli krustojot soļus uz priekšu un atpakaļ. Taču sirtaki nav grieķu tautas deja – tās autors ir grieķu komponists Mikis Teodorakis, kura nozīme un slava līdzināma Raimonda Paula statusam latviešu mūzikā. Turklāt slavenais sirtaki radīts kā filmas skaņu celiņš 1964. gadā uzņemtajai filmai "Grieķis Zorba". Interesants ir fakts, ka dejas nosaukumu – sirtaki – radījis nevis Teodorakis, bet grieķa Zorbas lomas atveidotājs, amerikāņu aktieris Entonijs Kvinns. "Sirtos" tik tiešām ir grieķu tautas dejas žanrs – līnijdeja, no kura ietekmējās Teodorakis, sacerot savu leģendāro sirtaki. Nosaukums "sirtaki" nozīmē – mazais sirtos; respektīvi – tas ir deminutīvs šim vārdam. Pazīstamajam sirtaki ir divas daļas – pirmā lēna un ātra, kura kļūst arvien ātrāka.  Dejas sākuma cēlais raksturs un lēnais temps saistīts ar apstākli, ka aktieris bija lauzis kāju un nespēja izpildīt horeogrāfa Jorga Proviasa iecerētos augstos lēcienus. Kvinns nācis klajā ar priekšlikumu – izpildīt velkošus, slīdošus soļus, kurus, kā viņš teica, viņam ierādījis kāds Krētas ciema iedzīvotājs. "Siro" grieķu valodā nozīmē "vadīt deju", burtiskā nozīmē – vilkt. Jāpiebilst, ka vēl viena no sirtaki ietekmēm ir viduslaikos dzimusī cēlā kareivju deja hasapiko. Filmas izskaņā liedagā stāv divi kungi. Jauns, pieklājīgs, rezervēts vīrietis – rakstnieks Bazils baltā uzvalkā, un sirmais Krētas iedzīvotājs, savā garā allaž brīvais Zorba. Izputējis filmas galveno varoņu biznesa plāns un abi ir palikuši tukšām rokām. Piepeši jaunais vīrietis saka: "Iemāci man dejot." "Dejot?! Vai tu teici – dejot?" – tā grieķis Zorba izsaucas neslēptā sajūsmā, noraujot savu virsjaku. "Nāc, manu zēn! Sāksim!" Un pāris Zorbas ritma knipjiem seko dejas sākuma taktis. Virs ģitāras šūpojošā ritma uzplaukst grieķu tradicionālā tautas instrumenta buzuki balss – saulaini spalga kā dienas gaisma, kas spoguļojas baltajā marmorā. Drīz liedaga smiltis sāk putēt zem deju soļiem. Rit leģendārākā un dzīvi apliecinošākā epizode grieķu filmogrāfijā. Tajā dejo tikai divi aktieri, vēl nenojaušot, kādu popularitāti šī deja iegūs nākamajās dekādēs līdz pat mūsdienām. Sirtaki ir viena no dejām, kas kļuvusi par grieķu kultūras daļu; tā tiek dejota gan kāzās, kristībās un citos svētkos. Paši grieķi 2012. gadā Volosas pilsētas svētkos ir uzstādījuši rekordu, izveidojot 5614 cilvēku virteni ar dalībniekiem vecumā no 14 līdz 89 gadiem.  Grieķu sirtaki tiek nereti izmantots arī mūzikas terapijā – tā pakāpeniski paātrinošais temps un paredzamais ritms palīdz atbrīvoties no spriedzes, mazina trauksmi un rosina radošu pašizpausmi.

“Before I came here, I dreamt about this land.”  —Jessie Jowers, Slow Life Family FarmThe third course in our series, Secondi, brings us to the tensions of resistance and surrender. In this episode of Fat of The Land, Ayana speaks with Jessie Jowers of Slow Life Family Farm and Deborah Zapparrata of Cooking Sicily. Here, the episode asks us to consider what social and domestic roles do to us. Focusing on women's stories, histories, and layers of expectations around femininity, the body, and even the earth, that come from this, the conversation considers the complexities of  lived and inherited wisdom; how they might be at odds, and where they may be reconciled. When women are told what we should desire, what we should have, what our expectations of life and family ought to be, are our experiences flattened? Asking questions of the land, the trading of spices and recipes, of the myths about women (from making ricotta from their breastmilk to liberate their cities to goddesses worshipped on the Sicilian coastline), Ayana, Jessie and Deborah contemplate how these histories may have been inherited (or, at times, rejected) by contemporary women. This episode grounds us in matrilineal connections that span generations Fat of The Land is a series that asks us what we mean when we look for connection between people and the land. Following a desire for real relation, for deliciousness, and for slowness, each episode traces what happens when we follow this desire. This episode is brought to you by generous sponsorships from Ritū, Terra Elaÿa, and Heyday Books.The featured music in this episode is “High Hill” by Evelyn Frances and For The Wild Studio.Thank you to Jessie of Slow Life Family Farm and Deborah of Cooking Sicily for joining us in conversation.Bios With a passion for the traditional uses of plants, Jessie Jowers brings a wealth of knowledge about local crafts, foods, and medicines to her farm's daily life. Deborah Zapparrata, nearly a decade ago, founded Cooking Sicily. It is a project born from a profound love for my island and its ancient roots. Alongside her family, her mother, three children, and her son-in-law, she has worked to preserve and share the true soul of our land. Cooking Siciliy explores Sicilian identity through its authentic flavors, rooted in a millennia-old history. Their cuisine is a unique Mediterranean tapestry, weaving together Greek, Arabic, Spanish, and French influences. Through local ingredients and ancestral heritage, Deborah invites the world to taste the living history of Sicily.Evelyn Frances is an experimental, avante garde musician and songwriter from Upstate New York, currently based in Seattle. Her work weaves in her foundation as a classical flutist and jazz musician, while moving forward into electronic exploration of sound. Lyrically, she touches on themes of climate change and human's relationship to nature, political rage, and her own struggles with mental illness.PartnersHeyday: Compassion in CrisisCrisis looms large in daily life. From failing public health infrastructure to resource shortages,  endless wars, and melting ice caps the crisis in education is inseparable from the crisis in loneliness, spurred on by the interests and fantasies of a small group of wealthy individuals, for whose sake whole swathes of our planet burn. Confronted with this situation, Kate Rose Weiner and Kailea Rose Loften began collaborating on what would become Compassion in Crisis: Building Disaster-Resilient Communities, a book that presents a strategy for catastrophe guided by values of curiosity and communal care. Readers will learn how to prepare baby formula in an emergency, how to best use stinging nettle or chamomile flowers for first-aid, alongside tips for paying attention to the different responses of our nervous systems to stress. You can purchase your copy of Compassion in Crisis here: https://www.heydaybooks.com/catalog/compassion-in-crisis/?utm_source=For+the+Wild&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=CINC&utm_id=FTW+promo RitūFat of The Land is a series about what it means to be in relationship with land, food, and the people who tend both across generations.

L. Ritók Nóra, az Igazgyöngy Alapítvány alapítója és szakmai vezetője több évtizede dolgozik szegény, társadalmi javakból kirekesztett közösségekben Hajdú-Bihar megyei Berettyóújfaluban és környékén, többek között az ország egyik legszegényebb zsákfalujában, Toldon (ahol mi is sokat jártunk a kampány alatt: több interjút is készítettünk a helyi Roma Önkormányzat vezetőjével, Balogh Jenő Jagával). Az Igazgyöngy Alapítvány partnerségre épülő modellje országos, sőt, nemzetközi hírre tett szert – a Fidesz-kormány alatt viszont pária státuszba kerültek, és 16 évet ellenszélben kellett végigdolgozniuk.L. Ritók Nóra először a Partizánnak beszélt arról, hogy a hatalom milyen eszközökkel próbálta elbizonytalanítani és ellehetetlínetni: egy évig például rendszeresen keresték fel az Alkotmányvédelmi Hivatal munkatársai, akik beszámolókat kértek tőle különböző civil életben történő ügyekkel kapcsolatban: amiatt, hogy minderről beszélt a Partizánnak, büntetőjogi retorziók is érhetik.Az interjúban arról kérdeztük, hogy hogyan küzdött meg a hatalom ellehetetlenítési kísérleteivel, milyen kompromisszumokat kellett hoznia azért, hogy 40 főt foglalkoztató, 1200 családot rendszeresen segítő alapítványa túl tudja élni a NER-t, mit gondol a Tisza sikeréről az eddig döntően a Fideszre szavazó szegény, kiszolgáltatott közösségekben, és mit gondol a legfontosabbnak, amerre az új kormányzatnak el kéne indulnia a legszegényebb közösségek emancipálása Toldon forgatott videóink:Jaga I – Szívem Tisza, eszem Fidesz (2026.02.14): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpZxBmyixzs Jaga II – A szabadság ára (2026.04.06): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4TCmwbMe3U Jaga III – Győztünk!

“Human hunger – not just for food, but for everything – drives us to do beautiful things, crazy things, horrible things, but that is the most human thing I can point to. We're a very hungry species, and that hunger moves us.” —Ayana Young, Host Episode two of Fat of The Land grounds us further in Sicily with Jessie and Carlo of Slow Life Family Farm and Mila of Bimbi Naturali. Across the conversation, themes of hunger, desire, and the allure of independence continue to unfold.   This episode asks us to consider the root of our desires and how they may draw us toward the land rather than away from it. Through reflections on patience and the wisdom of living within natural cycles, the conversations invite us to imagine beyond a world of instant gratification. As Mila reminds us, “nature needs time.” What kind of fulfillment becomes possible when we learn to move at nature's pace?Let this episode nourish the desires and longings that draw us back into relationship with the land.Fat of The Land is a series that asks us what we mean when we look for connection between people and the land.

„Indulat van bennem, revansvágy nincs" – mondja Rainer M. János. A történész szerint az 1956-os Intézetet már nem lehet visszacsinálni, a választás eredménye után mégsem szorongást, hanem 1990-nél is nagyobb felszabadultságot érez. A Választás '26 Benyó Ritával adásában arról beszéltünk, mit jelent a „Ruszkik haza!" újbóli elemi ereje, hogyan lehetne 1956-ból végre szabadságünnep, nem pedig gyászünnep, és miért lenne hiba, ha az új hatalom saját történelmi kánont építene. Szóba került az ügynökakták nyilvánossága is, amely Rainer szerint elsősorban a rendszerváltás egyik félbemaradt gesztusának lezárása – fontos, de nem a múlt teljes igazságának automatikus feltárása.

Választói forradalom zajlott le Magyarországon – állítja Szabó Andrea szociológus a Választás '26 Benyó Ritával legújabb adásában. Szerinte a Fidesz vezetése pontosan tudta, hogy a pártra ezúttal vereség vár. A fiatal generáció döntő szerepet játszott a fordulatban; a kérdés most az, hogy Magyar Péter képes lesz-e őszintén szembesíteni az országot a valós helyzettel, végrehajtani az elszámoltatást és megteremteni a nemzeti megbékélést.

We are so excited to share Fat of the Land, a new five part series unfolding over the next five weeks. This series began with a kind of romantic impulse. I traveled to Italy with a longing to be among people whose relationships to land and food have been tended over generations, particularly within the traditions of Slow Food. As a settler of North America, I carry big questions around land and lineage and memory and loss... I imagine meeting grandmothers making ravioli, sitting with elders, absorbing something simple and intact about belonging, but what I encountered was far more complex and far more meaningful. The experience didn't feed me in the ways I expected. Instead, it unsettled me and expanded my understanding of tradition, of connection and of what it means to belong to a place I'm deeply grateful for that disorientation and for all that it revealed across this series. We'll move through conversations shaped by land, food, inheritance and the tensions and contradictions that live within them, that of the land is made possible with the generous support of our sponsors. We're especially grateful to Ritū, whose delicious grounding ceremonial drink feels deeply aligned with the spirit of this series, nourishment that invites presence, connection and reflection. We're also thankful to Elaya, a retreat center in Italy that holds space for deep rest, learning and relationship with place. Thank you for listening and for being a part of this unfolding. Here we go the spring here.- AyanaSupport the show

What happens when a rare book library is also a working machine shop? This week, Ann sits down with the formidable Amelia Hugill-Fontanel, Associate Curator at the Cary Graphic Arts Collection at RIT. Amelia isn't just a keeper of history; she's a "press fixer" who maintains a fleet of functional 19th-century printing presses. We dive into the incredible legacy of Melbert B. Cary Jr., the intersection of historical type and 3D-printing innovation, and the inspiring rise of women in the traditionally "macho" world of iron hand presses. Whether you're a letterpress obsessive or a curious novice, Amelia's journey to curator and mechanic is a masterclass in keeping the history of the graphic arts alive and spinning. One print at a time. Show me the images !! https://www.rit.edu/carycollection/ @ameliafont1 @ritcarycollection Cover image: Jiageng Lin

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!A photo lab is a lot more than chemistry, scanners, and printers. It's a discipline. In this episode of the Dead Pixels Society podcast, we are joined by Dale Farkas of Dale Laboratories in Hollywood, Florida. He lays out the principle that quietly separates labs that last from labs that fade: the difference between quality and quality control. Great prints are not an accident, and consistency is not a “nice to have” when your customers are trusting you with once-in-a-lifetime images.Farkas traces his path from RIT and motion-picture lab work to a true garage-style start, then into rapid growth when he spots a market vacuum and commits to serving it. Along the way, he explains how labs shifted from optical printing to digital printing, why technician judgment still matters for color correction, and what it takes to run a modern workflow that stays predictable under load. If you care about film processing, mail-in film developing, professional photo prints, and the real-world mechanics behind lab reliability, this conversation is packed with practical insight.ThThe Fresh Patch Podcast - Where Good Pets Get It.

Susan Stinsmuehlen-Amend is an artist for whom ideas have always been more important than media, and possibly more integral to her work. It's interesting then that her art has been consistently viewed through the lens of glass. In the creation of her early X series to more recent Calendar Notations, she has pioneered techniques such as non-traditional, unfired painting on glass, mixing glass with other media, and presenting painted, decorated glass on the wall in reflected light. Throughout her career, the artist distilled her own life experiences in the creation of progressive and experimental work.  While studying Fine Arts at the University of Texas, Austin, in 1973, Stinsmuehlen-Amend was serendipitously introduced to glass and went on to become partner with Rodney Smith and designer of Renaissance Glass, an architectural glass studio. Beyond teaching and employing 14 artists, she built a creative hub that included studio space, glass supplies, a hot glass studio, education and exhibitions. Understanding the cutting edge in the field, Stinsmuehlen-Amend invited luminaries in the Studio Glass movement such as Dale Chihuly, Paul Marioni, William Morris, and Narcissus Quagliata, among others, to lecture and teach in the early 1980s. The studio became the center for contemporary glass in Texas from 1973 to 1987. While balancing single motherhood, donating time to the arts, and running her business, she became the Glass Art Society's first woman president (1984 – '86).  Concurrent with designing stained glass commissions, Stinsmuehlen-Amend was determined to make the craft form a means for personal expression. Through experimentation and rebellion and influenced by the local punk scene, her radical fashion designer best friend, Pattern & Decoration and Neo-Expressionism in art, as well as innovations in the world of craft, her work became unrestrained, kinetic, glittery, and jarring—defiantly not "tasteful" or functional. Combining mixed media with glass was a new idea at the time. For Stinsmuehlen-Amend, the shifting qualities of glass itself—its capacity to reveal, obscure, reflect, and distort—became integral to how meaning unfolds. Rooted in stained glass's narrative tradition, her story emerged through her everyday stream of consciousness rooted in the surreal logic of dreams.  In 1987, Stinsmuehlen-Amend relocated to Los Angeles, where she became a full-time artist; solo exhibitions and dynamic public art commissions followed. She was the lead artist on the Hollywood Demonstration Project in Hollywood, completing a precast concrete crosswalk with inlaid glass and bronze and an adjunct wrought iron public space. In 1994, she completed leaded glass for the AT&T corporate headquarters and The Jewish Museum, both in in New York City. Throughout these decades, she maintained her commitment to teaching, returning to Pilchuck Glass School repeatedly (1980 to 2019) and serving as a visiting artist at RISD, RIT, Tyler School of Art, California College of the Arts, and numerous other institutions. Stinsmuehlen-Amend's work is included in major collections including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Detroit Institute of the Arts, Oakland Museum of California, Corning Museum of Glass, Tacoma Museum of Glass, and Museum of Art and Design. She has received two National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships, two Pilchuck Hauberg Fellowships, and the 2007 Brychtová Libenský Award. The artist served 14 years on Pilchuck's Board of Directors and is a Trustee Emeritus of The American Craft Council and an Honorary Life Member of the Glass Art Society. She was recently awarded by the American Craft Council with the biennial College of Fellows honor for contributions to the craft ecosystem. Opening on May 16, 2026, at the Corning Museum of Glass, Tough Stuff: Women in the American Glass Studio will feature Stinsmuehlen-Amend's work. This new exhibition celebrates the female artists who revolutionized American Studio glass. The artist states: "Many artists found my loose and inclusive approach to working with glass inspirational because I was continually violating preconceived notions about craft and glass specifically."

In this episode, Lisa and Jeff discuss:Why college prestige alone no longer guarantees strong early career outcomes — and what matters more insteadHow internships, micro-credentials, and co-ops now function as proof of employabilityHow parental decision-making and assumptions about higher ed are shifting post-2008Where higher education still falls short in delivering hands-on learning and the durable skills students needKey Takeaways: Since the 2008–2009 recession, UCLA data shows the primary reason for attending college flipped from “learning” to “getting a job,” shifting students toward business/STEM and prompting colleges like Denison and Wake Forest to invest in career centers and experiential learning. Families benefit from a career-first college planning approach. Research with Burning Glass Institute shows skills + internships sharply reduce underemployment across every major, making internships the strongest hedge against post-grad drift. Students who wait will be at a disadvantage. Co-op campuses (Cincinnati, Drexel, Northeastern, RIT) embed mandatory work experience, but students still need agency to secure roles, and early credentials can accelerate access to internships.As AI reshapes the workforce, liberal arts colleges must intentionally layer durable skills and hands-on learning, with programs like Denison Edge illustrating how institutions can bridge academic learning with employer skill demands. “[Liberal arts colleges] need to lean into the durable skills that will last a lot longer than the degree.” – Jeff SelingoAbout Jeff Selingo: Jeff Selingo has written about colleges and universities for more than 25 years and is a New York Times bestselling author of four books. His latest, Dream School: Finding the College That's Right for You (September 2025), draws on more than two years of research and a survey of some 3,000 parents to give families permission to think more broadly about what signals a “good” college and then the tools to discover their dream school. He is also the author of Who Gets In & Why: A Year Inside College Admissions, named one of the New York Times's 100 Notable Books of the Year in 2020.A regular contributor to The Atlantic, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal, Jeff is a special advisor to the president and professor of practice at Arizona State University.

As NPR reports, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's vaccine advisors have recommended narrowing the hepatitis B immunization guidance for newborns. The result would be a rollback of a practice credited with dramatically lowering disease. But some states are already stepping in to issue guidance of their own to circumvent the process. It can be confusing for parents. We discuss it with pediatricians. Our guests: Elizabeth Murray, D.O., pediatrician at Golisano Children's Hospital Strong at the University of Rochester Medical Center Justin Rosati, M.D., assistant professor of neurology in the child neurology division at the University of Rochester Medical Center David Topa, M.D., vice president of New York Chapter 1 of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and assistant medical director at RIT's Student Health Center ---Connections is supported by listeners like you.

Political scientist and author Lauren Hall recently wrote that political parties will not be the salvation that many Americans seek. Instead, she prescribes a kind of coalition against authoritarianism — one that might unite many people who otherwise disagree on a lot of issues. Hall joins us this hour to talk about how to accomplish that, and how to recognize the forces that might prevent such a coalition from forming.

Stealth camping is a great skill to develop and a fantastic option to have for emergencies or maybe even your main overnight plan on a bike tour. But what if your tent is so bright it can be seen from miles away? On this episode, we talk about what worked for my last tent and what I'm trying on my newer one. Originally podcast September 8, 2022. Making a Tent Stealthier The old tent – ALPS Mountaineering Zephyr 2 Spray panting the tarp Tarp was orange so it needed full coverage Used a matte forest green Took 3 full cans to cover (more than I expected) Then covered with a waterproofing spray (think KIWI brand) Tarp worked like a charm – water beaded off just like before Was stiffer and heavier than before Tarp has finally failed at the zippers so it needs to be replaced Color has also worn off over time, although it still is predominantly well covered The newer tent -ALPS Mountaineering Zephyr 2 (again) New tent is blue and very light gray, tarp is mostly the light gray Better than orange, but still needs stealthification Redditor recommended Rit dying I was a bit skeptical but decided to go for it Got 2 dark forest greens and 1 chocolate brown that was designed for nylon A lot of boiling water (9 gallons!) and a big bin Let it get in there overnight and… It sort of worked.  It's super brown on one side, but perhaps predictably the back of the tarp, not the water repellant side So, dye job is not recommended Before, during and after shots:   What am I going to do? I have one tarp that is forest green but not terribly suitable for heavy rain I have another tarp that is very light gray and perfect for rain The reverse side is dark brown and not suitable for anything but dry weather I'm bringing *both* tarps for my next tour I can see where a brown tarp and a green tarp could help depending on where I'm tucked in I need to know I have a good rain option I don't always need to be stealth The lineup No need for stealth? Use the new tarp in the normal position regardless of weather Stealth and dry? Use green tarp for tent and brown side out tarp for the bike (or maybe vice versa) Stealth and rain? Use the green tarp over the proper-side-out gray tarp. This is the least likely scenario in a way… if it's really storming would people be out? Takeaways Folks, best bet is to get a tent with a slealthy tarp. They are weirdly hard to come by Dye? Not recommended Spray paint? Effective, but with its flaws.

This week we're breaking down The Return. This is the second episode in the two episode arc with Traveling Salesmen, and you know we have more memories from Greg Daniels for you. We're also joined by the hilarious Ed Helms, who shares his memories of this episode, including Andy's ringtone and punching that wall. Then, we talk about Oscar's return to Dunder Mifflin, Dwight working at Staples, and we get another fan rendition of Heartbreak In The Breakroom by Carmen and Camille. Finally, we get a good Homer Simpson background catch, chat about Jim and Pams prank on Andy, and dig into the Micheal-Dwight bromance moment of this episode.
