FTP Book Club: Tim Egan's Fever in the Heartland and The Immortal Irishman 

With meticulous detective work, Timothy Egan shines a light on one of the most sinister chapters in American history—how a viciously racist movement, led by a murderous conman, rose to power in the early twentieth century. The Roaring Twenties was the height of the uniquely American hate group, the Ku Klux Klan. Their domain was not the old Confederacy, but the Heartland and the West. A FEVER IN THE HEARTLAND is a historical thriller by the Pulitzer and National Book Award-winning author that tells the story of Stephenson the Grand Dragon of the state and the architect of the strategy that brought the group out of the shadows – their message endorsed from the pulpits of local churches, spread at family picnics and town celebrations. Judges, prosecutors, ministers, governors and senators across the country all proudly proclaimed their membership. Join us when Tim Egan examines the Klan's rise to power in the 1920s, the cunning con man who drove that rise, and the woman who stopped them on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.

Get to know some of the most notable of Italy's many patron saints, and why they remain important to so many. Then hear what journalist Tim Egan spent his time contemplating on his walk along the medieval Via Francigena — the pilgrimage path from Canterbury to Rome. And learn about the role of relics in many religious traditions, and why, for centuries, millions of faithful have journeyed for a first-hand encounter with them.

While North American natural gas prices are relatively low compared to Europe and Asia – they are still over four times greater than the typical level over the past several years. Assuming a cold winter, North American prices could spike up even higher.This week we invite Tim Egan, President and CEO, Canadian Gas Association (CGA) to join the podcast to talk about natural gas in Canada.   Here are some of the questions Peter and Jackie ask: Is affordability a concern this winter for Canadian residential and industrial users of natural gas?   Are exports of LNG from Canada's east coast economic? Why has central Canada's consumption of American natural gas grown?  Will Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) or hydrogen consumption grow in Canada? What are some examples of Canadian innovation when it comes to natural gas? Content referenced in this podcast:·         Website with more information on natural gas and its consumption: “Fueling Canada – we can do it” 

Should Canada try to fill the sudden need for natural gas in Europe created by Russia's invasion of Ukraine? Can we build the necessary infrastructure before that demand falls again?  Tim Egan, who heads the Canadian Gas Association, gives his take on those questions, and more, in an interview with Hot Room host Peter Mazereeuw.

Surrounded by legal cannabis states in New England, New Hampshire was on an island with dollars leaving that state for legal transactions in others. Now the New Hampshire House of Representatives has passed a bill that could be the first step towards legalization in that state. Tim Egan is a Representative in NH and was instrumental in moving it through the house with his fellow state reps. This week on In The Weeds with Jimmy Young, Tim explains the process, and what the next steps are towards passing this bill, and the challenges that lie ahead in that state's Senate. Then will Governor Chris Sununu even sign it?

This was the face he now donned for every public moment in these dark days. He was in trouble, and under no circumstances would he let it show. The investments he had made in the good times were now worthless. Ever since the waves of panic and the dread of complete collapse had gripped the region, commerce had careened to a violent stop; his tenants had no means of making money, much less paying him. Who knew when the next dollar would come? The economy was like concrete—it had moved well when it was wet, but now the scorching heat of oversupply, panic, and free-fall had dried it up overnight. Later, people would swear they had seen the terror behind his eyes. But in those first dreadful days, they had refused to admit it even to themselves. This story isn't from 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a glimpse of the grim inner reality of a landlord and investor in 1931, a paraphrase from a story told by Timothy Egan in his brilliant and award-winning book The Worst Hard Time. In the early 1930s, a terrible collision of deadly drought, global economic instability, and the dire environmental consequences of man's misuse of power gave rise to a cataclysm of dust storms that devastated the southern high plains of the U.S. Nothing like it had been seen before; and to this day, the total ruination of the ecosystem of the Great Plains is often credited as the worst environmental disaster of human history. Not surprisingly, few lived to tell the story, or if they did, it was a story too painful or shameful to recount. I can't help but connect the stories in The Worst Hard Time with elements of our current global challenge. No one knows the outcome of these times in which we find ourselves. There is no crystal ball; there are no material guarantees. Yet by Grace there is a brilliant, kind Teacher who wants to guide us through all of it into Life. And there is a map of human history that can educate our souls to survive, to endure, and to make the way for future generations to thrive as a result of abiding wisdom applied in the midst of an unprecedented crisis. Which brings me to a question: In times of crisis, when life shifts in some distinct ways from normal to survival, who lives, who dies, and why? Laurence Gonzales wrote a compelling, research-based narrative exploring the mystery behind this question in his fascinating book Deep Survival. In the hope of offering some soul-strengthening counsel from shapers among us as well as shapers of old, my aim in this podcast is to pause and consider some very practical aspects of “surviving survival” that we could lean into today in order to become even more the kind of men who can receive life and bring life, in partnership with God, for such a time as this. Specifically, I highlight 10 ideas that can help us first receive love and then lead in love, even in this uncertain hour. Friends, let us stand together, holding onto the hope that Paul expressed to the community of God's people in Galatia: the hope that we who have chosen to receive the gift of God's generously available life are given the resources we need for union with God and to express our faith in love. Not in our own strength, but in union with the Trinity today. Paul assured us that we do have direct access to remarkable qualities of God's own life and experience: Joy that overflows, Peace that subdues, Patience that endures, Kindness in action, a life full of virtue, Faith that prevails, Gentleness of heart, and Strength of spirit.(Galatians 5:22-23, The Passion Translation) And in the midst of these unique times, may we both receive and offer this kind of faith-filled life into our spheres of influence. May the fruit of our union with God be so nourishing and strengthening to those around us that the world will know that God is with us and we will not be shaken. As One, Morgan P.S.

Is organic food really worth it? Are eggs okay to eat? What does it mean if something’s labeled “Fair Trade,” or “Biodynamic,” or “Cage Free”? Health, nutrition, and sustainability expert Sophie Egan explored the world of ethical food choices we face every day. With insight that aims to revolutionize our understanding of food, Sophie drew from her book How to Be a Conscious Eater: Making Food Choices That Are Good for You, Others, and the Planet and was joined in conversation with environmental author and journalist Tim Egan. Using three criteria—is it good for me? is it good for others? is it good for the planet?—Sophie moved past fads and diets to highlight the importance of information in making informed choices amid the chaos of hype and marketing. Sophie unpacked our eating habits from four perspectives—food produced by plants, by animals, by factories, and by restaurant kitchens. She offered tips for buying produce and cutting down on food waste, and illuminates the truth of sell-by dates, the great protein myth, and much more. Listen in with Sophie and Tim for a forward-looking food conversation that could change the way we shop, cook, and eat. Sophie Egan is a Stanford lecturer and New York Times contributor whose work at The Culinary Institute of America and now her own agency, Full Table Solutions, has galvanized a nationwide movement to help all of us make healthier, more sustainable food choices—from moms to mayors, restaurant chains to foodservice companies, K-12 school districts to universities. She has written for the Washington Post, EatingWell, TIME, the Wall Street Journal, Bon Appétit, WIRED, and Sunset magazine. Her first book, Devoured: How What We Eat Defines Who We Are, is a journey into the American food psyche. Timothy Egan is a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and the author of eight books, most recently The Immortal Irishman, a New York Times bestseller. His book on the Dust Bowl, The Worst Hard Time received numerous accolades, including a National Book Award for nonfiction. He writes a weekly opinion column for The New York Times. Presented by Town Hall Seattle and PCC Community Markets.

Every state that borders New Hampshire has legalized cannabis. The Granite State continues to debate the best way to jump into the cannabis space, and one state rep is right in the middle of it, his name is Tim Egan. Egan is a long time independent TV Producer from New England, and now he's trying to produce a bill in that state's legislature that will pave the way for change and keep some of the cannabis cash in New Hampshire. He sits down with his old friend on In the Weeds with Jimmy Young.

For Episode 011 of Flux Capacitor, the podcast about the future of electricity, Francis is joined by Tim Egan of the Canadian Gas Association for a conversation with the CEO and Chair of the British Columbia Utilities Commission, David Morton. This is part of our collaboration with CAMPUT, the association of Canada’s energy and utility regulators, and was recorded at the Global Grid Forum, in Vancouver BC in September 2019, where both Francis and David were speakers.   From the CEA team, Michael Powell stops by to talk about recent news, and Ana Santarem provides an overview of the cross-Canada electrification debate series CEA is presenting.

Only a few days after it started, the Eagle Creek Fire in the Columbia River Gorge was only seven percent contained, so a sudden increase in the wind could cause it to once again continue its approach toward Portland, Oregon, a heavily wooded city of 700,00 people that hadn’t seen any measurable precipitation in 50 days. Everyone was skeptical that anything but rain could put this fire out, and it was nowhere in the forecast. In episode four of Wildfire, we’ll look into our wildfire management strategy as an institution; to learn from its founding principles, as well as its pitfalls, and learn from our triumphs and mistakes to help chart the best path forward. How did these policies originate, and why? What lead to this overwhelming strategy of suppression, and where has that left us now? Regarding the young man who started the fire, we’ll reveal everything we know about him, from press releases and news articles, to hopefully make some sense of his crime. And from there, we’ll look at the birth of the National Forest Service in the beginning of the 20th Century, the pioneering efforts of Teddy Roosevelt and Gifford Pinchot, and the systemic perception of wildfire that has sunk its roots so deeply into society’s consciousness that it has been next to impossible to change. Key takeaways: 0:24 – The wind had finally died down, and for a moment, the fire had finally stopped spreading. 1:40 – The government elevated the fire from a type two incident to a type one incident. There were now more than 1,000 firefighters in the Gorge to fight this fire and stop it before it went nuclear… 6:55 –On September 2, 2017, a teenager in the Pacific Northwest walked into the woods and made a really, really big mistake. 8:45 – “Having a catastrophic event happen in the middle of a traditionally busy weekend obviously had an impact on every single business here in town. Our customers didn’t have a reason to come out anymore, because there weren’t any trails to run on, bike on, play on…” 12:15 – “From a developmental standpoint, working with teenagers, they’re with a group of friends, trying to look cool, trying to get that social acceptance, wanting people to think you’re a ‘badass’, and feeling like you’re invincible.” 15:27 – It simply isn’t true that this kind of fire will never happen again. These fires, manmade or not, will likely continue, as they have throughout history. 18:54 – “If you look back at the history of conflagrations in the United States, they pretty much align with the wave of frontier settlement....” – The history of wildland firefighting strategy, and the history if Smokey Bear 25:27 – It all fell apart in the 1980s, when full-suppression tactics came back into vogue. 29:00 – “We waged a war on wildfire as a nation. But is wildfire really terrible? Can we attach such a subjective and human label to something so far beyond us?” 31:49 – “Convincing the public that some wildfires are good is tricky, but convincing the government could be even harder. And wildfire management in the United States is inextricably attached to timber.” 32:35 – The logging industry grew by 1,000 percent at the end of the 20th century, and clearcutting went into full effect. You can’t drive through Oregon without seeing the scars of this unfortunate era. Every tree in America had a dollar sign on it. 34:27 – “We had a human-caused fire, an abandoned campfire, way up in a dead-end drainage, and the fire became very active and took off… and some individuals were trapped… and four perished, and two were badly burned. It’s not worth it, at all. It’s not worth a life.” 36:34 – “We need to learn to live worth fire, because it’s not going away.” 40:00 – “We’re never going to live in a world without fire, and we wouldn’t want to. But how would the legal system hold ‘The Kid’ accountable, and make a statement about his actions?” Resources Stephen Pyne's website Stephen Pyne's book: Fire in America The Big Burn by Tim Egan 

Flux Capacitor, the podcast about the future of electricity, Episode 006, featuring two discussion that host Francis Bradley recorded with cohost Tim Egan from the Canadian Gas Association, at the annual CAMPUT conference.  In cooperation with CAMPUT, the association Canada's Energy and Utility Regulators, Francis and Tim talk energy regulation with the Chair of the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board, Peter Gurnham, and Manitoba Public Utilities Board Chair Robert Gabor.  Transcripts of our conversations will also be posted to the ERQ, the Energy Regulation Quarterly, at http://www.energyregulationquarterly.ca/#sthash.Gp0ncoTI.dpbs

In the 1840s, a million Irish citizens died of starvation during what became known as the “Great Hunger.” Taking up the desperate cause of his countrymen was a spirited and wealthy young orator named Thomas Francis Meagher.

Each year, the Center of the American West presents the Wallace Stegner Award to an individual who has made a sustained contribution to the cultural identity of the West through literature, art, history, lore, or an understanding of the West. Timothy Egan has demonstrated singular achievement, creativity, and dedication to the perception of the West and Western issues. Mr. Egan writes op-ed pieces with a Western perspective for The New York Times once a week. He is also the author of seven books, including The Worst Hard Time, which won the 2006 National Book Award for nonfiction. Please join us for what will be a wonderful and stimulating evening. A special thanks to Al and Carol Ann Olson for making this event possible.

National Book Award-winning author Tim Egan’s latest book is 'The Immortal Irishman: The Irish Revolutionary Who Became an American Hero'. It’s the fascinating story of the life and times of Thomas Francis Meagher, who, according to Egan, may be the most important and famous Irish American in our nation’s history.

The Experiments of Doctor Vermin discusses the sad truth. Tim Egan tells it like it is: there are sceitists out there turning pigs into giant pigs. It's a problem. Thus, our Halloween series continues. Rachel & Sam Read a Story is about the fun of reading children's books, and also about how little sense these books make when you read them 20 years later. We read the books aloud and make fun of them while we do. Enjoy!
