Podcast appearances and mentions of sunshine powercuts

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! This week I'm talking about mental health awareness and that it's okay to not be okay- and that it's okay to need help. Special thank you to Heather of Just Heather's and Sunshine & Powercuts for the inspiration with her stream during mental health awareness week in New Zealand! Check out the resources and other information available from the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand at https://www.mhaw.nz/.  It's kitchen science turned kitchen reality as I have assembled a breakfast lasagna! The recipe is getting there but definitely packs a lot of flavor. The breakdown below is my amended recipe based on the experience of making the first version, but I talk about the differences more in the show as well. Thank you so much for listening, and thank you so much for coming on this journey with me.   Featured Recipes for this Episode Breakfast Lasagna: 3 c sweet onion, diced 2 c sweet pepper, diced 3 c par-boiled potatoes, cubed 1 T canola oil 4 T butter 12 large eggs 12 oz cheddar cheese 2- 12 oz packages chicken breakfast sausage Sage Paprika Salt Pepper 9 crepês, around 8" diameter (crepê recipe listed below) Zest of 1 lemon 4 T scallions, chopped 2 c tomatoes, diced Hollandaise: 4 egg yolks 1 T lemon juice 1 stick unsalted butter Salt Paprika Pepper Crepês: 1 c all-purpose flour 1-1/2 c milk 2 eggs 1 T canola oil 1/4 t salt ~| After my first experience with this as discussed in the episode, I went back and re-tooled the recipe, lowering the amount of butter and potatoes and adding some tomatoes in for a little bit of contrast, both in terms of flavor and color. This ended up somewhat heavy in a single piece at almost 700 calories- and that's without the hollandaise to top it. |~ Begin by preparing your various ingredients to layer into the lasagna. Add canola oil and 2 T butter to a large skillet at medium heat.  Once the butter melts, add your onion and pepper. Sprinkle some salt in to start sweating them down.  Cook them for 5 minutes or so; they'll get part of the way done here, but you'll finish them next. Add your potatoes to the skillet and toss everything together to combine. Do yourself a favor and par-boil the potatoes, it will make cooking them to the desired doneness far easier. Cook everything until your potatoes are nicely seared and browned and your veggies are softened. Remove from the heat and transfer to another dish. Whisk your eggs vigorously for about 30 seconds or so. If you like you can add some milk here, or water. Add remaining butter to your skillet and return to the stove at just above medium heat. Add your eggs and cook to your desired doneness- I think leaving them a little wetter than normal is fine because they'll finish in the oven. Remove eggs from the heat and transfer to another dish. Wipe the skillet clean at this point (no need to wash it). Cut your sausages in half lengthwise. Turn the heat up to mid-high and sear the sausages until well browned on both sides. Remove from the heat to rest. Once rested, chop them into pieces the same size as your potatoes and set aside until you're ready to prep your lasagna. Add your salt, pepper, lemon zest, sage, and paprika to the bowl with your sausage and stir to combine. Add your peppers, onions, and potatoes and stir to combine them as well.  Shred your fresh cheddar cheese and set aside. Prepare your crepês- Add flour, milk, eggs, canola oil, and salt into a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, mix them together until blended. Grease your skillet or use cooking spray and heat the skillet at mid-high heat. Remove from heat and spoon in about 1/2 c of crepê batter, tilting your skillet to spread the batter evenly. Return to heat and flip as needed to cook it through. Transfer to a plate to rest. Preparing the lasagna- Preheat oven to 350°. Add two crepês to the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish. Layer over 1/3 of your potato/onion/pepper/sausage mixture.  Add 1/3 of your scrambled eggs. Add 1/4 of your cheddar cheese. Add two more crepês and repeat your layers, then repeat again. Add final two crepês on the top and finish with remaining cheddar cheese. Bake uncovered for 25-35 minutes or until cheese on top is nicely browned. Remove from the oven and rest. While your lasagna rests, prepare your hollandaise or other potential toppings. Hollandaise sauce recipe and instructions followed to the letter from Tyler Florence's recipe at https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/tyler-florence/hollandaise-sauce-recipe-1910043 (instructions are copied below)- Vigorously whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a stainless steel bowl and until the mixture is thickened and doubled in volume.  Place the bowl over a saucepan containing barely simmering water (or use a double boiler,) the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl.  Continue to whisk rapidly. Be careful not to let the eggs get too hot or they will scramble.  Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and continue to whisk until the sauce is thickened and doubled in volume.  Remove from heat, whisk in cayenne and salt.  Cover and place in a warm spot until ready to use. If the sauce gets too thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water before serving. Top your finished slices of breakfast lasagna with scallions and freshly-diced tomatoes as well as hollandaise or other toppings as necessary.

Hello and welcome to a brand new episode of Nikoli's Kitchen, the penultimate episode of the first season! That's right, next week is the season finale, but before we get there, I was thrilled to be joined by someone who has changed my life and who, literally, has saved it. Heather- you may know her from Sunshine & Powercuts, or her bi-annual Sunshine Summit events- is here to talk about Just Heather's, which is a website/blog and a pair of podcasts that she's launching and a new journey that she is embarking on. I'm thrilled to have her for the second installment of Table for Two, where I sit down with my favorite creators and podcasters and talk about everything under the sun. Please make sure you subscribe to Heather's shows and follow her journey at https://justheathers.com/. This week on the show, Heather has brought a recipe for chocolate mini muffins that I decide to adapt into a flour-less recipe using coconut oil in place of dried coconut to create some coconut chocolate chunk muffins- although my chocolate all sank to the bottom! I actually made the recipe live on the air with Heather, so you'll get to hear my reactions to it as I made it. Thank you all so much for listening, and stay tuned next week for the finale of season one!   For the past four years I've been honored to host the Livestream for the Cure, a charity that raises money for the Cancer Research Institute and for cancer immunotherapy, which is training the body's immune system to fight cancer.

SunEp028 - Connections: Sunshine, PowerCuts, Summits(1hr) This marks the 60th episode of the Sunshine & PowerCuts Podcast.In the early days, there were a few bonus episodes due to the excitement for this creative journey and gratitude for the support I received early on. And, here we are.60 episodes, a number of guest appearances, three livestream events with 34 guest spots... It would all be for naught without you.Thank you!To the listeners of the podcast!To those who have become patrons!To the other podcast hosts who have invited me to join them in conversations.To the mentors and new found friends, as well as the other content creators and their audiences that have supported and participated in the Sunshine Summits. Naturally, at the heart of Sunshine & PowerCuts is connections.Being connected to nature as a resource for generating both electrical power and for our own health and empowerment. When we face challenges or experience powercuts (lost connections) in life, we need to reconnect, re-sync and recharge. And along our journeys we connect with resources and people that help us and which we are truly grateful for and they are an integral part of our journey of learning about ourselves and the world around us.Bringing people together to shine a light on and share those experiences is powerful. We have three previous episodes on Connections with guests: Jilanne Holder, Alysa Lucas and Emily Prokop. For this episode, the tables are turned and with the help of the wonderful Stephanie Fuccio of Changing Scripts, Virtual Expats and Expat Rewind who was one of my guests for the March 2019 Sunshine Summit and offered to interview me, we look at the theme of connections which is the foundation and link between the sunshine, the powercuts and the summits.

Heather has lived completely off the power grid using solar power with a battery bank since December 2011. In 2017 she developed a podcast that would share insights into her off-grid experience but also share learnings from having to rely on nature for power and how nature is connected to our wellbeing. To succinctly describe her experience Heather came up with the title Sunshine & PowerCuts which then became two alternating podcast episodes. Sunshine relates to solar power, and also can be related to our wellbeing in terms of what brings us joy or "lights us up". And the PowerCuts can be actually having no power which happens a lot when you have a small alternative power system, but also when we have challenges in life. How we deal with the power cuts in our lives depends on our wellbeing and using nature examples and reconnecting with nature we can re-sync ourselves to the world around us and recharge ourselves in this very digital age.

This past year has been one of the busiest I've ever had. I could never have imagined two years ago that starting this podcast would have brought me the most amazing listeners in the world or that they would go from listeners to the best book launch team I could have imagined. Since we're celebrating Thanksgiving in the United States this week, I wanted to take a moment to tell you how thankful I am for everything you've done for me and this podcast. From sharing the show with your friends and family, to writing such kind words and Amazon reviews for The Story Behind book, to supporting the show on Patreon, and for all those times you've shared trivia you've learned on the show or shared trivia back with me. I hope your holiday season is a happy one. And I look forward to seeing where The Story Behind goes in 2019, because you've proven that even though I write and produce the show, you are actually what makes the show great. So, thank you! I hope listeners in the United States had a lovely Thanksgiving and hopefully can have some fun conversation about today's topic while eating the leftovers.

Sorry for the delayed episode this week! If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you may have seen that I went to DC Podfest. And the first day I was there, I woke up with the beginnings of a cold. Luckily, I was able to get a hold of a bottle of Zicam fairly quickly and stave off the cold for a few days … until I got home. And then, it hit. This week has been a bit of a fever dream for me, but it made me start to wonder about some of the things we say when we're sick and the origins, so get ready for a bit of an etymology episode. But as long as there have been humans, humans have been getting sick, and many of these idioms carry a lot of unverifiable history with them. And, much like the cure for the common cold, the true origin stories of these phrases may never be found. You're listening to The Story Behind: The Extraordinary History of the Ordinary.

If you follow @StoryBehindPod on Instagram, you may have seen that I went to Boston last weekend for the Sound Education conference at Harvard University to be on a panel with other history podcasters that included Liz Covart from Ben Franklin's World, Patrick Wyman from Tides of History, and David Stenhouse from BackStory. I respect these podcasters greatly and it was such an honor to be in the same room as them. Because my travel schedule is pretty hectic this month, I only stayed in Boston for one day so I didn't get to experience anything outside of Harvard and the train station, but if you've ever been to Boston, you know that it seems there's history on every street. I got to hang out with Chris Nesi from The House of #EdTech podcast while I was there and he suggested I do an episode relating to Boston. Since any history regarding Boston would be a huge undertaking, I wanted to pick something a little more obscure, but still very much Boston-related. And food is always one of my favorite topics to research. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Boston Baked Beans. Find out more about The Story Behind Book!

This is a very special episode of The Story Behind. Believe it or not, two years ago I pressed Publish on the first three episodes of this podcast, The Story Behind the Theremin, The Story Behind Dry Ice, and The Story Behind Sugar Skulls. This podcast was supposed to be a side-project for me. It was supposed to just take up a little of my time, so I could continue my hobby of podcasting while holding a full-time job and when I was pregnant with my son. That's what it was supposed to be. But in the two years since the show began, it took on more. It became my favorite distraction. It allowed me to geek out over things I never had a reason to learn otherwise. And it kept my brain from going to complete mush with pregnancy brain and post-partum brain. Plus, it led me to a career in podcasting and finally, it became the basis for The Story Behind book. Now, after last year's one-year and 100th episode special of The Story Behind The Musical, which was sung, I knew it would take a lot to top that for this year's episode. In fact, it's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you. There's nothing that a 100 episodes or more could ever do. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind “Africa” by Toto.

If you're a parent who has even been on Pinterest and looked for activities for your child, you've probably seen at least a dozen different recipes for modeling clay or sensory dough, as it's sometimes called. Most of the recipes are different variations on the mixture of flour, water and salt dough I remember using to make Christmas ornaments. So, one morning this week, I was searching for a recipe for my son. I spent a good 20 minutes making it, mixing in different colors, getting just the right proportions of flour to water to coconut oil so it wouldn't stick to my hands or leave a greasy mess, only to have my son pick it up, drop it on the cat, and decide he was done with it. 20 minutes of making it, only to have it covered in cat hair after a minute or so. After all that, I threw away the dough I had made and added today's topic to the shopping list partially because it was easier to keep in the house and more convenient. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Play-Doh. Find out more about The Story Behind Book!

If you're listening to this episode when it comes out, you may know that The Story Behind book will be released on Monday, October 15th. In the spirit of that, I'll be doing a few episodes revolving around books. This topic seemed almost too easy to cover, since the invention was something I think we all remember learning about in grammar school. But, as per usual with this podcast and the book, whenever I dig a little deeper, I always find out new information that wasn't in my history books. While those books were most likely printed using modern-day printers, there wouldn't even have been widespread use of books without today's topic in the first place. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind the Printing Press. I'll be releasing a separate episode with a book update, plus a sneak peek into the book's acknowledgments because I really want to thank everyone, not just in the book, but also in the podcast, so check your podcast app and the show notes for that link.

There will be a new episode this week, but I also wanted to put out a bonus episode talking about The Story Behind book, which releases Monday, October 15th. In all honesty, it's still not real, even after getting the advanced copies of the book, and on top of everything, social media fatigue and impostor syndrome have really gone into overdrive the past few weeks. But before the book launch day is here, I wanted to thank you all, once again, for all your support.

Only a few more weeks until The Story Behind book is out! And one of my podcasting mentors and buddies Dave Jackson gave me the idea to do a bunch of episodes relating to books around this time to hopefully set the mood for its release. While I was looking into different topics, I found out that the week this comes out, the week from September 23-29, 2018, is Banned Books Week, so what better time to have that as a topic. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Banned Books. Find out more about The Story Behind Book! Check out Emily's other podcast, Hate to Weight!

School picture time is here and every time I get my daughter ready for her picture, I try not to follow current trends too much. I have this fear she'll have the same experience I had in 1990 when my mom decided to go all out with my school picture and not only give me a big enough pinafore on my dress that it could double as a wind sail on a small boat, but she also teased my bangs and hair so much that I remember the photographer moving his camera back to get the full look. And, yes, if you follow The Story Behind on Twitter, Instagram and in the Facebook group, I'll post the picture for you all to see. I also encourage you to post some of your school photos so I don't feel as bad. But I bring up this picture for a reason. There wouldn't have been that awful picture in the world without the topic of today's episode. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Hairspray.

I honestly didn't think I would be as interested in the history of today's topic when I first started reading about it. There was a lot of chemistry involved and anyone who knew me in high school knows that was the worst subject for me. When you listen to the episode, you'll notice I kept the chemistry aspect to a minimum. But as I kept researching, what intrigued me the most was when the chemistry switched to biology and women's studies toward the end, when working conditions for those making today's subject resulted in a serious epidemic and women went on strike to protect themselves and other workers.

I love when I find out an origin story I think I knew turns out to be either a widely believed false rumor or when I find out other people learned different origin stories.

For us in the Northern Hemisphere, the summer is pretty much reaching the end. And, as a parent, I'm pretty happy about that because it means my daughter is back in school. But before we start talking about Pumpkin Spice-everything and the holiday season, here's one last hurrah. And, for many like me, no summer is complete without having ridden the topic of today's episode at least once. Although, you might be surprised to learn its origins actually began as a winter recreational activity. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Roller Coasters. ---- It's less than two months until The Story Behind Book releases and I am so super excited and it still doesn't seem real yet. If you haven't pre-ordered your copy yet, you can find the book on Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com. Now, believe it or not, there are a lot of books with “The Story Behind” in the title, so people have said searching The Story Behind with my name works well. Or, the super easy way is to go to TheStoryBehindBook.com and click the links over there. By the way, the more people order the book, the more the price will go down, and when you pre-order on Amazon, you won't be charged until the day it releases, so the more people you share this news with, the more the price will go down. And, one more thing, I was told by my publisher to let people know that if you are an Amazon Associates member, you can make an affiliate link to the book on Amazon and share the link with your audience on your blog or website to receive a little kickback when people purchase it using your link. Anyway, thank you to everyone who has been promoting the book so far. You are all amazing and it's meant the world to me that fellow podcasters and listeners have been some of my biggest supporters. This really is one of the best communities in the world. So, thank you! ---- Find out more about The Story Behind Book! Check out Emily's other podcast, Hate to Weight!

This episode will be told in layers. The tasty summer treat I'm talking about has three ingredients, and while they're all delicious on their own, together they are incredible. And this episode will be set up similarly, with different stories smushed together into one show. This episode has just a little mature subject matter in the first section that refers to the birds and the bees, just a heads up. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind S'mores.

Today I'm doing a collaborative show with Josh Hallmark from the podcast Our Americana, which explores unique small towns across America through the stories that impact, cultivate, and challenge community. America can feel oppressive. Every day it feels more and more like pieces of it are disappearing. That it's losing its value. But … there are monuments and mementos of the past if we just take a moment from our busy lives to take a look. Strange reminders of small victories, new life, love stories, and the strength of community. These stories are all around us, relics of station wagon days, on the highways and gravel roads that connect us all. It's easy to dismiss them as icons of capitalism; if you build it, they will come, and buy. But, there's always something more there, something deeper. I'm Josh Hallmark from Our Americana and I'm Emily Prokop and this is the story behind Roadside Attractions. **Visit OurAmericanaPodcast.com to listen to Episode 4.4: Roadside Attractions (Monuments)** Find out more about The Story Behind Book!

They’re never just pets or just animals. They’re our companions, confidantes, therapists, and our best friends. In this episode, Alysa, along with her parents, friends, and listeners, explores the idea that our furry friends are, in fact, friends. If you’re a pet owner or hoping to become one soon, this episode will remind you of all the wonderful benefits animals provide us humans and why we simply don’t deserve them in our lives. It’s the purrfect way to spend time with your best fur-evers to settle in, have a listen, and get ready to bark with laughter.  Share Your Friendship Stories with Alysa!

If you're listening to this when it comes out, you may know that next week I'm going to a huge conference for podcasters known as Podcast Movement. And I thought it only appropriate to do an episode related to this. You may be using the topic of today's episode right now and listening to this episode with it. You may have even been appalled two years ago when Apple announced it was getting rid of the jack to plug today's episode topic into on their iPhones. Nevertheless, almost everybody has a pair or two nowadays. And many, like me, may not even use them for their intended purpose, which is to listen to music or podcasts, but as a way to safeguard ourselves from talkative coworkers or overly friendly sales people. I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Headphones. Order your copy of The Story Behind Book! Check out Emily's other podcast, Hate to Weight!

One of my favorite things about doing this podcast is looking at things in everyday life and wondering if they still have the same purpose they did when they were invented. This week's subject is a bit ambiguous. It's most notably known for bringing a pop of color and whimsy to an otherwise drab suit, but aside from that, it's more seen as form over function. Yet it's so ubiquitous and has been around for hundreds of years, showing no signs of going out of fashion, despite many men counting down the minutes until they can loosen theirs every day.

Have you ever introduced a friend to your best friend and they become friends too? In this episode, Alysa is joined by her friend, Sarah, and Sarah’s best friend, Jen, and it’s like friendship inception (or, maybe just network expansion)! As Jen points out, if you support your friends and their decisions, you are likely to think their friend choices are also pretty awesome! Before Alysa gets a chance to geek out over this amazing idea, her mind is also blown by secret hash tags and dream teams as well as that these friends can navigate through, literally, ALL of the friendsh!t! Quite honestly, Alysa may need to step up her friendship game after chatting with these two friends! Check out Podcast Suggested by Jen!

If you've ever read Edgar Allan Poe's “The Tell-Tale Heart,” you may hear a heartbeat as something a little creepy. Although it's funny to note that on many sound machines for babies, a heartbeat is offered as a way to help them remember one of the sounds they heard in the womb. However, for doctors, the sound of a heartbeat can tell an awful lot about a person. It's one of the first things they listen to during a physical exam. It's also one of the first things an OB-GYN looks for and, later in the pregnancy, listens to for a pregnant woman. While listening to the heart isn't new in the world of medicine, one of the most common tools for doing so is only a little more than 200 years old.

Climate Change. That’s a phrase that has been banned by our current administration, so what does that mean to climate scientists and how does that action impact their teaching opportunities, research and the overall attitude of society towards the scientific community as a whole? These thoughts are why Ep. 29 - An Agent of Change’s guest is Kim Cobb, a climate scientist at Georgia Tech and director of the new Global Change program at the same organization.

Welcome to The Story Behind: Clue Series. In every episode of this series, we talk about the history of one of the original weapons used in the game, “Clue.” This series may not be appropriate for all ages and listener discretion is advised.  Did you ever wonder why it's tradition to blow out candles on your birthday? It actually goes back to the Ancient Greeks and burning candles in religious ceremonies, including to pay tribute to the goddess Artemis who is associated with the moon. They baked cakes to symbolize the shape of the moon and added candles to represent moonlight. Though cakes are delicious, they can't really be used as a weapon for MURDER. But another candleholder can ... I'm your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind The Candlestick. The Clue Series Butler you heard at the beginning of the episode was played by Paul from Rick and Paul Heal the World. Miss Scarlet imitations provided by Amy from the podcast Ladies Love Paul Rudd. The role of Liberace was played by Craig from The Ultra Podcast. And Rub-A-Dub-Dub was read by Heather from her new podcast, Sunshine & PowerCuts, which is about her life off grid.
