Guitarist Zacc Harris is back with Chasing Shadows, the follow-up to his well-received 2021 effort Small Wonders. In the summer of 2022 Harris took an opportunity to get away to a cabin for five days sans family and with nothing specific on the agenda. During the retreat Harris found his way into about twenty new songs, eight of which can be heard on this new record. The resulting performance exude some of the curious and patient spirit so many find when they spend a couple days away from the grind. Harris discussed the writing and recording of the album with Jazz88's Sean McPherson. Harris and company will be celebrating the release of the new album on Friday November 15 at Berlin in Minneapolis.

Welcome to the final episode of season 3 of Small Wonders!A new year approaches - and for many, a new set of resolutions.Reading, going to the gym, travelling, lifestyle changes: all of us have a “possible self” that we strive towards.It turns out we've been making New Year resolutions for a very long time - at least 4,000 years in fact, according to ancient Babylonian records.Humans have always pursued personal growth.We've also spent millennia breaking New Year resolutions.However, it's not as dire as you might think: statistics show that most people who make resolutions keep at least part of them.The notion of the possible self is often related to both hopes - and fears - for the future.Hope and fear: the possible is connected to them both.The possible self is also a theme in the Bible, but a possible self is firmly reliant on Him through whom all things are possible.The way to the best possible self - the eternal one - comes through the humble servant, encountered in the Gospels."Going a little farther, (Jesus) fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.” Matthew 26: 39

It's that time of year when things aren't exactly lovely or pleasant all the time, and hunting for the good takes some work and some practice.

Laurel Moffatt returns with Season 3 of Small Wonders. You're invited to join her on an exploration of the unnoticed and the seemingly unimportant in search of life's lessons, at the hands of the creator.In this episode, Laurel ponders the wonders of spiders are just that - spiders, through and through. They are what they're made to be, down to their very core. Might it be the same for us humans? That we too are reflections of something greater, and we can't be who we're meant to be without it?"And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit" - 2 Corinthians 3: 18

I guess I woke up on the right side of the bed today.

In this episode we chat with Nicole Llinas, the Executive Director of Current Problems. As a kid in Georgia, Nicole created miniature museums in her yard, charging neighbors and family to see her eclectic collections, ranging from dried snail shells to rocks and mud creations. Her move to Florida at the age of 10 only increased her love for the world's natural beauty, including freshwater springs and coastal beaches. During her time at the Alachua Conservation Trust, Nicole experienced something that stuck with her. One day the leader of their group, a botanist, suddenly stopped the truck they were in, stepped out, and sat down in a ditch to admire a single flower by the roadside. This seemingly insignificant moment left a mark on her, inspiring her to appreciate the small details in nature as a part of the greater work of conservation. Nicole realized that she wanted to be the kind of leader who could pause amidst the chaos to cherish the beauty of nature, no matter how tiny, in her journey to protect it. Now she's leading with action as the Executive Director of Current Problems. They're on a mission to address the alarming issue of marine debris originating from freshwater systems, with studies showing that a staggering 80% of marine debris can be traced back to these sources. Since 1993 they've removed over 1,068,102 pounds of waste, making a big impact. If you've ever wondered what it takes to maintain a grassroot organization, or how we're all connected, no matter where we live, then this one's for you!

Ross Gay joins Eric Newman and Medaya Ocher to talk about his latest, book, THE BOOK OF (MORE) DELIGHTS, a second installment of THE BOOK OF DELIGHTS, published before Ross, us, and the world were plunged into the COVID19 pandemic. Like it's predecessor THE BOOK OF (MORE) DELIGHTS features a collection of short essays that bring into focus the small wonders we so often overlook in our busy lives. Among them are the wonders of a neighbor's fruit tree, a discovery of self-maturation in an impromptu pickup ball game, and appreciating the toothy feel of a stolen notebook. Moving between the intimate record of Ross' quotidian experiences and the larger political, social, and philosophical questions that saturate and surround them, THE BOOK OF (MORE) DELIGHTS revels in the everyday joy—and sometimes the pain and horror—of a world right at our fingertips… if only we'd take the time to notice it. Also, Thea Lenarduzzi, author of Dandelions, returns to recommend A Life by Guy de Maupassant, translated by Roger Pearson.

Laurel Moffatt returns with Small Wonders - her short, thoughtful reflections on how a trust in Jesus colours how we see things in the world around us.Ahead of a new season, she ponders how, if we don't take the time to pause, we can misunderstand why things are happening the way they are.Things aren't always as they seem - sometimes when we expect to find pain and anguish, we instead find love and care.Matthew 11:28-30 is just one of many scriptures that echos this theme.

We are still road tripping around Tasmania and you guys are listening in record numbers – so thank you.  This week's episode is a fun one as we take you on our trip to Launceston via Penguin, Deloraine, then on to the Tamar Valley Wine Region (yum Tasmanian wines!!). Our first stop for brekkie was at the cute little town of Penguin – and we tell you why it's called that.  Then we drive on to one of the prettiest towns in Tasmania – if not Australia – Deloraine on the Meander River.  It should be in movies – just gorgeous. Finally, we reach our overnight accommodation in the city of Launceston.  We take you to the most popular tourist attraction in town – the spectacular Cataract Gorge.  We also walk through the city park which we were really surprised to see an animal enclosure full of cheeky cute little – not telling – you will just have to listen. Here's a hint though – they were a gift from Japan. Then we travel on to the small town of Grindewald, which is a replica of a Swiss village with the same name full of Swiss chalets and pristine gardens. We stay in a tiny hotel room – my fault when booking- but it was cheap and the facilities were amazing like an indoor heated pool and putt putt golf – which I kicked Lyle's butt in. Then we go on a full day wine tour all around Tamar Valley.  It is such a beautiful area of Tasmania and the wineries were fabulous.  We visit Marion's Vineyard on the side of a hill with views to die for, Goaty Hill Wines (which is now Small Wonders organic wines) with the most amazing platters and picnic areas, Holm Oak vineyard with its huge pigs and lastly Swinging Gate with it's cute mascot – Nellie the dog. Listen to the end to hear where our favourite place to have a wine was and about the really cool Mixed Dozen program that allows you to buy a couple of wines at each participating vineyard and have them all sent home together – what a great idea! And your holiday can continue when you arrive home – perfect. Please enjoy Episode 47 which is part 3 of our road trip around Tasmania.

Wee people, fairies, fae, fairfolk are a few names for fairies. As you can tell by the title, fairies are primarily from Celtic countries but other countries have something similar but tonight we're concentrating on the Celts. Fairy is a broad category encompassing fairies, elves, trolls, brownies, leprechauns, etc. and they aren't all cute, sweet little creatures. Some of them can be a bit vindictive, and there are some that are mischievous. Pranksters if you will. We did stay on topic for once this time, with no rabbit holes. But I enjoy rabbit holes sometimes. Tonight's cocktail: The Green Fairy-absinthe, water, lemon juice, egg white, and angostura bitters. Shake with ice, and strain into glass.

The Joshua Tree National Park in California is a good starting place for Laurel Moffatt's reflection on our struggles to see the light.The park is full of interesting characters as well as a compelling number of stars - most of which are invisible to the outside world. Because of the amount of artificial light we use each night, more than a third of people can no longer see the Milky Way.But the brightness of the light in deep darkness can show us how faint, how small, how very weak and narrow our own attempts at lighting our own way are.LINKS Paul Bogard, The End of Night: Searching for Natural Darkness in an Age of Artificial Light.

John admits it's not often that he has the opportunity to feel like a 12-year-old kid, but something happened last week that triggered some serious moments that matter. Liu Yan explains the concept of "small wonders" and the magic contained in the magical moments in life, that might be few and far between, but always worth the wait. After a musical interlude from Air Supply, the gears shift to the idea that the era we are living in now, is in reality, the best time in history to be alive.

Early March, and spring is maybe, just maybe, on the horizon. The light is changing, and there is a new song in the woods. We think of robins and crocuses as the harbingers of spring, but in the arboreal forests of North America, the chickadee beats them to the punch. Join host Leigh Melander for Episode 3 of the Myth America podcast, Chickadees and Small Wonders in the coming of Spring, as she explores how the tiny chickadee can open a sense of spring - and a sense of how we build story in our lives on this almost-spring episode of Myth America.

So there we all were hanging out at the beginning of March 2020 with our beautiful innocent selves, having no idea what was about to happen. But happen it did. I won't make you relive it too much, but living through that shutdown, with its shelter in place orders, the everything-suddenly-virtual world wasn't the easiest shift. Oh, and add in the general hum of fear and anxiety about a pandemic we didn't yet understand, and wow. That was quite the recipe for angst soup. And this week, especially as it's the week of Thanksgiving, I couldn't think of a more perfect guest to bring to you on the podcast…because my guest this week knows how to find beauty in pretty much everything.  She even found it during that time of stress and insecurity and unpredictability. It's a beautiful talent and I can't wait for you to hear about how she does it.  

Building on last week’s discussion about toys of our childhood, we talk about the 70s and 80s TV landscape that allowed for a show like “Small Wonder,” the tale of a robot girl and her life in a suburban family. We contrast wholesome family fare like Family Ties and The Cosby Show (!) with Three’s Company, where a man and two women, none of whom were married to each other, lived together in the same home! Some of our parents did not approve. If you find yourself chuckling at any of these memories, there are plenty more in the podcast. Join us for some reminiscent relief from the day’s news.

Deborah Eisenberg and Lionel Shriver with Anne Blessing Short stories are often overlooked as exciting, contemporary fiction…at least by those of us who have long since graduated high school or completed our English Literature degrees. Yet the readings and conversations by two masters of the craft, Deborah Eisenberg and Lionel Shriver, will make you take a second (or third, or fourth) look at short fiction in this laugh out loud conversation.

They have squadrons of telepathically controlled dinosaurs and fantastic technology derived from dark magic. And their man inside Canada has run the country's masked heroes ragged trying to keep up. And it turns out that the only thing stopping things from getting a whole lot worse are a few... Small Wonders!

We explore how scarcity and limitations make us more grateful, how we constantly need to re-learn forgotten skills and habits, and how we all need to cherish the small, often unregarded moments of joy. Also, we celebrate the wisdom of Saint Joni of Mitchell, think about what we are looking forward to doing when all… Read More »Episode 111: Small Wonders of God

Leslie Shriver, Empire member of The Child Care Success Academy and owner of Small Wonders Discovery and Learning Center in Ohio, joins the show about how they stand out from the competition in a rural area, getting freedom in the day-to-day of your business, and the strategy she used to expand from one to five locations since 2011.   Key Takeaways: [1:02] Started in 2011 with one center and has grown to five. They are about 85% full, which for her is great. She was a teacher and administrator of a center and has been in the field since 2004. She opened up the center as a response to needing to send her daughter to a preschool that she felt secure about, where the staff was engaged and the culture was positive. [6:46] Leslie has more flexibility now that she works from home and loves knowing she has helped other people become leaders so they can help her run things smoothly. [8:55] Small Wonders offers white diapers, formula, and freshly cooked food at no cost to the parents, which sets them apart from their competitors. The fourth location is also in a lab school, which serves as a feeder for potential new hires from the graduating students. [13:59] They are hiring all the time, which is normal. They track their culture and work on employee engagement, but the industry average is about 43%. [20:28] Small Wonder’s enrollment rate is 90%, which is extremely high. [24:11] Leslie grows her leadership from within by pulling employees that she trusts and believes in out of the classroom and into administrative positions. [27:37] A child care rockstar is someone who feels passionately about what they do and feels in their heart they are making a positive difference in the lives of their family and co-workers. [34:16] Offers for the subsidy market can be an offer for gas and groceries, gift cards, or a drawing for a fun weekend pass that parents and kids would love. [37:02] Leslie originally had a partner, but ended up opening the school and doing the journey on her own. The experience taught her that she is even more capable than she believed.   Mentioned in This Episode: Kris Murray The Child Care Success Company Child Care Success Academy Child Care Success Summit Child Time, Inc.

Robert van Altena gaat in deze uitzending in gesprek met Frits Scholten, senior curator beeldhouwkunst bij het Rijksmuseum en hoogleraar geschiedenis van de Westerse beeldhouwkunst tot 1800 aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam, over de even voortreffelijke als kleine kunstvoorwerpen gesneden uit buxushout afkomstig uit het atelier van de zestiende eeuwse Delftse kunstenaar Adam Dirksz. In het gesprek wordt er speciale aandacht besteed aan een gebedsnoot met scenes uit het leven van Maria Magdalena. Dit kleinood is van alle zijden en tot in het kleinste detail te zien op de website The boxwood project van Art Gallery of Ontario. Small Wonders, de tentoonstelling gewijd aan het werk van Adam Dirksz is t/m 17 september 2017 te zien in het Rijksmuseum. Naast de Boxwood projet van de Art Gallery of Ontario is er onder de tentoonstellingstitel Small Wonders ook een mobiele site ingericht door uitgeverij Thieme-Meulenhoff zodat een aantal werken uit de tentoonstelling ook op de smartphone nauwkeurig kunnen worden beken.

Tiny is SO in these days. Nanotechnology, technology that is small enough to fit inside a computer chip, is a field that is attracting lots of young technologists. Wharton MBA graduates Brian Smith and Irene Susantio -- otherwise known as Team Solixia -- are putting tiny into action in health care. Their “Hot Dot” cancer treatment is the size of a small protein fragment yet 20 times more powerful in diagnosing and treating cancer than current methods. Brian and Irene have big plans for their business, which received a grant from the National Cancer Institute in August, 2010, as they spread the word about the small wonders of nanotechnology.

Hej, my name is Martin and I played drums for the Faintest Ideas/ javelins when we were around. These ögnhalsmottagningen that me and Stew Boyracer formed over the phone in late 2007. Apart from that I make hip hop/ dance music under the name Acid Lindgren, play guitar in a new band that might be called Anti-social Darwinists, Pretentious Assholes, Compulsive Record Collectors (or something completely different) as well as DJ under the monkier ADHDJ (thanks for the name Marisa). I live in Gothenburg, Sweden and one of my dreams is to one day have enough money to release a vinyl box of everything The Capstan Shafts will ever record. I am allergic to lactose, and think Chuck Reutter and Mike Spiegs should move to Sweden and start a band with me. Some of this stuff is actually true.1. Huggy Bear "Her jazz" (7", Wiiija/Cat Call, UK, 1993) – Huggy Bear is, together with Black Flag, Minor Threat, Bikini Kill, Boyracer and Beat Happening the most important and influential bands ever in my book. Everything about the band was, and is still so exciting to me, and why I never went to Emmaboda to see them in 93 still puzzles me to this day.2. The Carpettes "Small wonder" (7", Small Wonder, UK, 1978) – A totally perfect punk song (with a simple, but amazing drum beat in the chorus) that sums up everything that's so great about D.I.Y. in a few lines, so just sing along; "I don't need record companies that wanna rule me/ all of them think so obscene/ but I don't care about publicity/I just don't care for your generosity/ Small wonder/ they give you the bright idea to be a star/ you'll never make it, you'll never go far/ they say a good musician has gone to waste/ I tell you it's just a stupid taste/ Small wonder/ you talk about popularity/ d'ya think that it's a wise move?/ the useless generation knows nothing, so what does it prove?/ I can tell you straight to your face/ small wonder, the saviour of the human race yeah!/ Small wonder"3. Lockjaw "Radio call sign" (7", Raw, UK, 1977) – I can't resist to include at least one release from Lee Wood's Raw label as he released way too many great bands. This is the band that introduced Simon Gallup of the Cure to the world, and the song got enough energy to light up a medium sized Swedish town. Great drum rolls and fantastic Spaceward production.4. Svart "Otålighetens gräns" (7", Stranded, Sweden, 1980) - This song is taken Svart's debut EP, which is one of Sweden's finest post-punk releases. The band did an LP the year after this 7" was released, and even if the LP has some great songs it could never match the ones on their debut. I think this just might be the first Swedish indiepop record.5. Roadrunners "Love me as I am" (7", Beluga, Sweden, 1999) – The Roadrunners were one of Sweden's finest neo-garage bands that had everything I want from a band it that genre. They looked great, had great production on their records, and most important, they knew how to write killer tunes. All of their 7inches and EP's are well worth searching for, even if this is their best song in my opinion.6. Hormones in Abundance "Bad songs, bad people" (7", Heavenly Pop Hits, Sweden, 2004) – Bad people get the bad songs they deserve and in my opinion Patrik is one of the greatest song writers in Sweden. 41 seconds of indiepop perfection!7. Unrelated Segments "Story of my life" (7", Hanna-Barbera, USA, 1966) – 13 years before Dead Kennedys released "California über alles" these Michigan kids released this amazing slab of proto punk thrash, and in my opinion it seems like Jello Biafra owes quite a lot to the Segments lead singer Ron Stults when it comes to vocal delivery. This was the bands first 7" out of 3, and they are all equally great and intense.8. ABKK "Ronny" (7", EFMD, Sweden, 1981) – Fast, faster, fastest, weird, weirder and weirdest keyboard in the history of Swedish punkrock! This is released on the same label as Tuppjukk and Dom Vässade. EFMD stood for Enad front mot disco (United front against disco) and the label took lessons from Desperate Bicycles and printed the breakdown of the total printing costs on their record sleeves.9. Lars Langs "Chartertönt" (7", Pels-Votten, Sweden, 1980) – This song is taken from Lars Lang's only EP, that's thanks to a typo is called "Greatest Hit" instead of "greatest hits" and it's one of my favorite Swedish 7inches. 5 songs and they are all as great as this one.10. Mizz Nobody "Smittad" (7", DO 69, Sweden, 1978) – Mizz Nobody was Sweden's answer to The Petticoats or Poly Styrene and this is once again one of my favorite songs. Pay close attention to the amazing guitar sound she managed to come up with, and pay even closer attention to the killer guitar break in the middle of the song.11. Push Kings "Florida" (7", Double Agent, USA, 1996) – Together with Pants Yell! and The Remains, The Push Kings are among the best pop bands ever from Boston, and this is probably my favorite song by these well-dressed pop stars. Anyone who knows what happened to them; feel free to let me know.12. The Jumpers "My girl" (7", Dront, Sweden, 1982) – These young small town mods only released one EP, where this is the best song. It's not the best mop top song from Sweden by far, but it still got a guitar line and melody that I just can't resist.13. Lee Kings "On my way" (Flexi, Bildjournalen, Sweden, 1966) The Lee Kings was pretty much your average 60's teen band, but on this flexi they sure gave the Who and The Sorrows a run for the money when it came to feedback driven breaks. I'm pretty sure Stew Boyracer will like this one.14. Mecano Ltd. "Face cover face" (7", No Fun, Holland, 1978) – Here's some great and raw Dutch punk on the legendary No Fun label that also released one of the best punk records of all time; The Helmettes' "I don't care...". From what I can understand from their discography the band is still around in some form, but this 7" is basically all you need from them in my humble opinion.15. Boyracer "Where to place yr trust?" (12", 555, USA, 2009) – Boyracer is one of my favorite bands and Stewart is a great friend of mine, and not to mention an amazing song writer, so not including them in this set would just be preposterous. This song is takes from the LP version of Happenstance that was first released as a CD by HHBTM, but as the LP's got a few bonus tracks I highly recommend you to pick up a copy of this release as well as everything else Stew's got in stock before it's too late. In the songs I wrote for javelins/ The Faintest ideas I borrowed (or stole) so much from Boyracer that I owe them royalties for the rest of my life I guess.16. Von Gam "Hasse parasit" (7", Gam Produktion, Sweden, 1980) – Brilliant and quite noisy punk from these young kids from Hovmanstorp (situated next to nowhere) produced by Sticky Bomb from Kriminella Gitarrer and demon producer Pål Spectrum. This song is about a creepy bastard who only lives for profit.17. The Misfits "She" (7", Blank, USA, 1977) – The first recording by the Misfits is their finest moment according to me. I love that Glen played a Farfisa organ through a fuzz pedal instead of bothering with finding a guitar player. Sloppy card board drums, the way too loud mixed bass and Glen's amazing voice together makes this the best version of this fantastic song.18. Pizzoar "År 3000" (7", Massproduktion, Sweden, 1980) – The Faintest Ideas covered this song for the Yellow Mica compilation "Wearing our punk rock hearts on our sleeves", but our version could never hold a candle to the original version. No surprise there I guess, even if I really liked Christoffer's weird and one of a kind accent on our version.19. Milky Wimpshake "Dialling tone" (7", Ferric Mordant, UK, 1999) – Daniel who played guitar for the Faintest Ideas introduced me to Milky Wimpshake and for that I'm forever thankful to him. This is such a great song and I wish I could write songs as good as this one.20. Bugs "Bloody mess" (7", Bugs, Sweden, 1979) – A bunch of very young kids who had a drummer who never figured out how to use the kick drum, so they just ignored that part of the drum kit. The singer counts in the song by saying 1,2,3, shotgun! Brilliant!21. Kriminella Gitarrer "Vårdad klädsel" (7", Kloaak, Sweden, 1978) – This 7" recorded in December 1977 has been labeled Sweden's first punk record sung in Swedish. Two of the most magic minutes in punk record history!22. The Zeros "Radio fun" (7", Small Wonder, UK, 1977) – I listen to the radio a lot when I'm at home or at work, so what could be better than a song that celebrates the fun with radio? Most of the early releases on the Small Wonder label are equally great as this one, so do yourself a favor and keep an eye open for that label when you go through the records at your favorite 2nd hand shop.23. Bad Town Boys "Borrowed time" (7", Dionysus, USA, 1990) – The first time I heard this song I was sure it was a recording from the early 80's, but it's actually written and recorded during the late hair metal period and released long before the entire retro punk wave became fashionable. This is one hell of a song!24. Richard Berry and the Pharaohs "Louie Louie" (7", Flip, USA, 1957) – The BEST song ever written. Period!

Good things often come in small packages. This week on Travel with Rick Steves, we'll investigate two small countries in Europe and Latin America that are often overlooked as destinations in their own right. Belgium has been in the center of much of Europe's action for centuries, and it now hosts the political capital of the European Union. It's a country with a remarkably easy-going flair, and great food. Native son tour guide Ferdi Menghi joins Rick to take listener calls about Belgium. Then, Kurt Kutay (koo-TIE) introduces us to an indigenous tour guide in Belize, for an overview of Belize for adventure travelers. That, and another round of listener's travel haiku, are coming up on the next Travel with Rick Steves.
