On a spontaneous whim one rainy Saturday morning, Tom began to read a storybook to me through whatsapp voice notes. A storybook that he had not quite got round to reading before. You know the type - you skim the illustrations, grab it on impulse, then on returning home it sits patiently in the ‘waiting pile', sighing to itself at the wonder the book knows it contains within its interior. And oh my, what a storybook it was! I argued with it, questioned it, took offence to it and peered dubiously at it. I also marvelled at it, gasped with awe at it, surrendered with delight to it and ultimately fell into a spellbound swoon. How could I not want to share such a tale and such a teller with you! So, here for your listening pleasure is the story of Eemook as read by Tom… Eemook's story is from The Sea Lion written by master storyteller Ken Kesey and illustrated by Neal Waldman, published in 1991. It is described by the publishers as an original tale that takes its inspiration from the Indigenous Peoples of the Pacific Northwest. The Peoples include the Chinook, Salish, Coast Salish, Kwakwaka'wakw and the Tlingit. More information can be found at https://www.nativehistory.info/pacific-northwest-native-tribes-culture/ And as an extra bonus I wanted to share a stunning short film by Jules Guerin entitle A Shaman's Tale - https://julesguerin.tv/a-shamans-tale Tom lives in a small cottage in the Bay Area of California where he designs and maintains gnome friendly gardens that incorporate native plants, which are also friendly toward birds and bees. He is a part time astrologer who loves viewing the night sky from the desert. His recent interest in giving voice to story has emerged along with a rekindled interest in song. It has been helped along from having had the events of his life lovingly mirrored back to him as story, and the gentle encouragement of his uncensored voice. Find out more about his interactions with the plant people at tegardendesign.com With love Elizabeth of the Faerytale Apothecary

They share about the importance of art, fighting big gas & oil companies, feeding their families, how to be an ally in their struggle... and calls to action, including a peaceful protest & media push this coming Friday, June 20, a Day of Prayer for Salmon. We want to bring attention to this vital work as this administration escalates the targeting of public - ie: stolen - land.Deloole & Rochelle illuminate the many ways white settler colonial violence extracts from, steals, and harms indigenous people, the lands we live on, and our relatives – from herring, salmon & moose, to trees, forests and rivers – all of us across this continent.Amidst violent ICE raids on Tongva land & across Turtle Island, & escalation of the genocide in Palestine, we bring you this heartfelt conversation from Lingit Aani, Tlingit land in Sitka, Alaska, with Deloole Erickson & Rochelle Adams, who organize with many groups, including Native Movement.Stay tuned for an upcoming series in collaboration with the Herring Protectors and Movement Generation, deepening into many themes shared on this episode.Thank you to Movement Generation for inviting so many of us to come together across the Salmon nation last summer, seeding generative relationships across colonially imposed borders.

Three Alaska Native tribes filed a lawsuit to stop a controversial gold mining operation east of Nome. The tribes say a permit just granted by the U.S. Corps of Engineers will allow the destruction of salmon habitat and other important environmental elements in a pristine estuary. The mining process involves extracting ore from material dredged from river and ocean beds. On the other side of the state, residents of Wrangell are concerned about a gold mine just over the border in Canada. A new report finds heavy metals in groundwater on the Alaska side.

The San Carlos Apache Tribe is fighting to stop the planned June 16, 2025 transfer to the sacred Oak Flat land in Arizona to the companies that intend to turn it into a copper mine. There's a flurry of activity around the ongoing fight over the land, known to the Apache as Chi'chil Biłdagoteel. The Trump Administration announced its intention to rush the land swap involving 2,400 acres of land to hasten the two mile wide open pit mine. A federal judge this month halted the transfer, saying the tribes have a prevailing interest. San Carlos Apache just requested an injunction to stop any movement until the legal issues are settled.

He was born in Siberia in 1797 to a clerical family, and became a married parish priest in Irkutsk. A devout explorer, John Kriukov, told him of the great spiritual needs among the Russian and native peoples in Alaska, then Russian territory. Moved to serve Christ in this very difficult environment, he and his family arrived in Alaska in 1824. He quickly learned the Aleut language and worked humbly and tirelessly among the Aleuts. His spiritual classic, An Indication of the Way to the Kingdom of Heaven, was originally written in Aleut and later translated into many languages.   While he was visiting Russia in 1838, his wife died; one year later he was tonsured a monk and given the name of Innocent (he had been Fr John Veniaminov). Almost immediately after his tonsuring he was, without warning, raised to the rank of Bishop of all Eastern Siberia and Russian America, probably the largest diocese in the world at that time. Returning to Alaska, he continued his missionary work with vigor, often traveling among Aleut and Tlingit settlements in his own kayak. Wherever he went, he found the Alaskan people hungry for the faith, and his labors bore rich fruit which is still obvious today: Alaska has more Orthodox churches per capita than any other state.   In old age he was made Metropolitan of Moscow, head of the entire Russian Orthodox Church. His concern for Christian mission was undiminished, and as Metropolitan he created the Orthodox Missionary Society. He reposed on Holy Saturday of 1879.

In this episode, Guy Lawrence talked with Bonnie, an energy worker specializing in clearing foreign energies and helping individuals achieve emotional and spiritual liberation. They discussed the concept of multidimensional existence, where individuals live multiple lives across different realms simultaneously. The conversation covered the importance of surrendering to and understanding deep emotions to achieve true healing and freedom. Guy and Bonnie delved into the shifts occurring on our planet, encouraging listeners to face their inner turmoil rather than avoiding it. Bonnie also shared her personal journey of overcoming severe early-life trauma, providing insight into her development as a healer. The episode explored practical ways to connect with one's higher self and other aspects of existence, underlining that everyone carries the potential for profound inner transformation. About Bonnie: Bonnie Serratore is the Founder and CEO of  Spiritual Acceleration, a practice she started to lead programs for professional healers who are committed to assisting their clients and patients in transforming their lives. She teaches and trains them in energy and entity removal, past life clearing, implant removal, and intuitive development. She also leads weekly classes and intensives for those who are not healers themselves. Bonnie has created numerous workshops, seminars, retreats and programs on higher consciousness, S and core emotional clearing. She has been featured in the film Awaken Soul to Soul by Guru Rendezvous and led retreats for YPO (Young Presidents Organization). She is the author of “The Way Back Home – How to Clear the Energy of Emotional Wounding” and has been helping people achieve core emotional clearing and healing at the subconscious level for more than 33 years. That has resulted in the liberation of people from core emotional wounds and fixed lifelong patterns.  She works in all time, space, and realities using the white flame of creation, referring to herself as a trans-shaman. Bonnie's highly developed intuition allows her to identify the core issue and swiftly address the root of the problem. She is a natural born intuitive of Sioux heritage, possessing highly accurate and refined skills. Not following any tradition, Bonnie's work goes beyond any known form of shamanism or energy work resulting in permanent change. As founder and director of the ReNascent center located in Sonoma, CA for thirteen years, she provided workshop intensives and held retreats.  Bonnie has been a guest teacher at the J.F. Kennedy University in Pleasant Hill and the CA Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco and a guest on PBS television and radio talk shows. She is recognized by the elders in the Tlingit tribe in Alaska for her abilities in the shamanistic realms and has worked with individuals and groups throughout the United Sates, Europe, and parts of the Middle East.

Beans currently hosts the podcast Alasquatch and has written the first non-fiction book on the subject of Port Chatham: Abandoned the History and Horror of Port Chatham, Alaska. You can find him at his website www.alasquatchpodcast.com   Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is a legendary creature that has been a part of North American folklore for centuries. In Alaska, sightings of this elusive creature have contributed to the state's rich tapestry of mysterious stories. Often described as a large, ape-like being covered in dark hair, Bigfoot is said to inhabit the dense forests, remote mountain ranges, and vast wilderness areas of Alaska. The state's rugged terrain, with its dense woods, snow-covered peaks, and expansive swamps, makes it an ideal setting for such a cryptid to remain hidden from human eyes. Many locals and visitors claim to have seen large footprints, heard eerie howls, or found strange hair samples that they believe belong to Bigfoot. Native Alaskan tribes, including the Tlingit and the Athabaskan, have long had their own versions of the creature in their oral traditions, describing forest-dwelling beings that are often seen as spiritual or supernatural entities. The legend of Bigfoot continues to thrive in Alaska, where it is part of a larger fascination with the unexplained and the wild frontier. Whether myth or reality, the idea of Bigfoot adds to the allure and mystery of Alaska's untamed wilderness. The presence of Bigfoot in Alaskan folklore is not a new phenomenon. Indigenous groups, such as the Tlingit, Athabaskan, and Haida peoples, have long had their own traditions of wild, forest-dwelling beings that bear similarities to the modern-day Bigfoot legend. These creatures are often viewed not just as physical beings but also as spiritual entities with deep ties to the natural world. The region's isolation and vast expanses of wilderness contribute to the mystery surrounding these sightings, as the wilderness remains largely unexplored. While there is no scientific evidence to support the existence of Bigfoot in Alaska or anywhere else, the continuous reports of strange encounters keep the legend alive. Whether rooted in myth, misidentification, or a genuine unknown, Bigfoot remains a captivating part of Alaska's culture and its allure as a land of mystery and discovery.

The U.S. Navy is scheduled to formally apologize to Alaska Native residents of Angoon, Alaska, 142 years after they bombarded the village. The Navy also just apologized to the residents of Kake for a similar assault some years earlier. Both deadly assaults on the villages came after the deaths of Tlingit residents prompting a series of escalating actions. The shellings occurred during a time of tense interactions between Alaska Natives, the U.S. military, and outside corporate interests. Navy and village leaders alike say the apologies will help healing these many years later.

Tlingit warriors enjoyed an initial victory in defending their home against Russians intent on re-establishing their settlement in Sitka. But after first driving the Russians back and wounding their leader, Alexander Baranov, in the first week of October, 1804, the Tlingits concluded they couldn't sustain another armed assault. They moved to the far end of the island that now bears Baranov's name, but remained contentious cohabitants with the Russians, keeping the settlers on guard. Even though the Tlingits lost, the battle was a landmark event that influenced Russian settlement that came after. We'll hear about the Battle of 1804, and also the 1869 American assault on the Village of Kake, for which the U.S. Navy just formally apologized. GUESTS Louise Brady (citizen of the Sitka Tribe of Alaska), Kiks.ádi clan member Yeidikook'áa Dionne Brady-Howard, (citizen of the Sitka Tribe of Alaska), Kiks.ádi clan member and educator Joel Jackson (Tlingit), president of the Organized Village of Kake

Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse welcomes Edzi'u, a Tahltan and Tlingit artist based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations. Edzi'u is an innovative songwriter and composer who paints stories of the past, present and future with textures, elders' stories, words, and their ethereal voice. Edzi'u is the gentlest balance of hard and soft, a non-binary 2-spirit Indigiqueer femme, their strength of identity resonates in their music to create a fullness of fierce spirit combined with an elegant grace. Their new music is full of thick synths, drums dripping with reverb and a mix of a modern take on 80s and 90s sounds that blends the nostalgic essence of Stevie Nicks, the raw emotional depth of Sharon Van Etten, and the atmospheric electronic textures of DRAMA. The result is a sonic river of pain and beauty that sweetly soars into a singular, healing journey. Tiokasin talks with Edzi'u about their new EP, “Tunnel Vision,” a poignant exploration of the cruelty of heartbreak, the painful truth of mistreatment, and the radiant journey of resurgence. With vulnerability and fortitude, each track lingers with the listener like a cherished memory. Edzi'u invites listeners into an auditory sanctuary where music serves as both refuge and revelation. In this sacred space, reclamation of self stands as the most powerful act of all. Edzi'u and their artistry is a beacon of auntie joy for queer and Indigenous communities and beyond, embodying resilience, grace, and unapologetic authenticity.
