Transcript below…Today we're going to talk about what it means to love our listener as we play the guitar. At the school where our children attend, one of the values that is consistently brought forward when writing papers is the idea of “Loving your reader.”This means writing clearly, and writing well. In fact, they even give out penmanship awards for the younger students to affirm their work in this area.I'd say that as guitarists, loving our listener is tremendously important, whether the listener is enjoying our guitar live in person, over a live stream, or on some sort of audio or video recording. Today, during this brief discussion, I'll offer five ways to love your listener. There will always be more, and your suggestions are welcome in the comments, but let's start with these five.1. Tune your guitar.I offer this suggestion because a significant portion of the song offerings I've heard over time have been played well, but on guitars that are slightly out of tune. This actually undermines the entire offering. There are a variety of ways to tune, from using a tuner, to a tuning fork, to referencing a piano, to using the highly advanced method of equal temperament with harmonics and beats. But even a simple smartphone app can act as a bridge from being out of tune to being in tune. People may not know which string is out of tune, but they'll know intuitively if a guitar is not in tune. Your listener likes to listen to guitars that are in tune.2. Want to play well.What does this mean? I basically desire to inspire you to play your guitar well. Some folks I've heard are basically “phoning it in.” They grab their guitar, start strumming, and are generally ok with what comes out. But here's the thing: they may be playing some unnecessary strings with their chords (E.G. the low open E under a D chord.) Or they may be strumming too aggressively for the interpretation of the song. Or they may be ignoring the opportunity for dynamic variation. So, I encourage you to play cleanly, accurately, and artistically.3. Desire variety within limitations.Within the scope of artistic interpretation, we can vary our chords, strumming patterns, and picking patterns, even within the song. Some folks default to just a handful of strumming patterns for their entire worship repertoire, rather than thinking through what the song might need. And color chords or different voicings can add so much. Think about what the limitations are of the song, and work within those, but bring variety and elegance, based on what you can offer in this season. This applies to worship leading, but also songwriting.4. Wave the flag of quality over quantity.In GuitarSuccess4U, I teach my highly unique “Chord Kite Diagram” strategy, where my members are able to zoom in on just four chords and their combined transitions, for clean movements between them. This translates to a much more pleasing offering. Contrast playing four chords well, with someone who can play 40 chords…sloppily. I think you know what would show love to your listener here: quality over quantity, especially with music. Lastly…5. Don't be a perfectionist.Perfectionism can be the enemy of progress. If we refuse to offer our gifts until they're “perfect,” we could be missing out on all sorts of opportunities. But if we stay “human” in our delivery, considering these other ways of bringing quality and elegance, we'll provide something very enjoyable.People enjoy hearing music from people. Not machines, not A.I., not something mechanical, but real people playing real music.Tom Jackson, a gifted performance coach with whom I have studied, once said that “Going from bad to good is easy; going from good to great is really tedious.” Basically, to really buckle down and work towards a quality delivery with your guitar playing won't necessarily take hours, days, weeks, or even months. It may take years or even decades. But the good news is that we're in this for the long game. We're going to play our guitars for many, many, many, many years, Lord willing.So, will all this hard work be worth it? Yes.Don't let the long game discourage you. Think about how well you want to play, and do what you can today to love your listener. And enjoy the process.And then, more opportunities will open up for you to play your guitar, and you'll get better, and better…and better.And then more doors will open.Proverbs 22:29 says: “Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.”And Psalm 33:3 says: “Sing to the Lord a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.”And yes, there will be joy.I hope these thoughts gave you some ideas for how to enhance your playing. If you're ready for the next level and a clear, battle-tested success path that leads to loving your listener even more, as you discover the guitar and the joy of music in a Christ-honoring community, please check out GuitarSuccess4U.com. Trust me – there's more wisdom, encouragement, and inspiration waiting for you here than you can imagine.Keep playing your guitar, keep having serious fun, and I'll see you next time.Thanks for reading Guitar Serious Fun!

You crafted your songs. You've put your heart and soul into them, but when you're on stage, the response from the audience is lackluster at best. Is it the material you're performing. In many cases, while the songs are excellent, the presentation is not. Where in the song is the moment on stage that defines who you are? This is where Tom Jackson Productions steps in. As a trained Live Music Producer for Tom Jackson Productions, Amy Wolter offers her years of personal experience onstage, along with a multi-layered musical background, to help artists engage their audiences by creating compelling, memorable live shows. Amy has helped hundreds of artists of all genres, prep for major headline and opening act tour slots, and showcases for labels, and spoken at Artist Workshops around the country. A few of her clients include Grammy award winners The Band Perry & Lacrae, CMA and ACM –winning country acts Gloriana and Thompson Square, Riser House country artist Dillon Carmichael, Capitol Christian's breakout artist Anne Wilson, contestants for The Voice & American Idol, Dove award winners Francesca Battistelli & Sidewalk Prophets, as well as top Canadian artists & Canadian Country Music Association winners High Valley, Jess Moskaluke & Chad Brownlee. Amy works with artists at all levels, empowering them to have confidence and authority onstage. "I've learned by a lot from being onstage myself, and know the importance of connecting with an audience. If a crowd doesn't enjoy watching you, or have an ‘experience' at your show, then what's the point of them seeing you live?" says Amy. "The ideas and tools in Tom Jackson's Live Music Method are absolutely career-changing when an artist understands the power of a great live performance!” www.onstagesuccess.com www.tomjacksonproductions.com Creator and Executive Producer Emeritus: Tom Sabella Showrunner and Host (the guy who has a face for podcasting): Bob Bender Management Representation: Chuck Thompson for Thompson Entertainment Group, LLC Co-Producer - Audio/Video Editor (the man behind the curtain): Mark Sabella Director of Video and Continuity (the brains of the entire operation): Deborah Halle Marketing and Social Media (all knowing): Sarah Fleshner for 362 Entertainment All Around Problem Solver (and Mental Health Therapist for us): Connie Ribas Recorded inside what could be an old beat up Airstream Trailer located somewhere on what's left of Music Row in Nashville TN (Man we sure do miss Noshville, and the Longhorn Steakhouse) Mixed and Mastered at Music Dog Studios in Nashville, TN Editing and Post at Midnight Express Studio located in Olian, NY Production Sound Design: Keith Stark Voice Over and Promo: Lisa Fuson Special Thanks to the creator and founder of the podcast, Tom Sabella, along with Traci Snow for producing and hosting over 100 episodes of the original "Business Side of Music" podcast and trusting us to carry on their legacy.

Andrea Menard is one of the stars of Sullivan's Crossing, the hit CTV show based on the bestselling books by Robyn Carr. The dramatic series follows young neurosurgeon Maggie Sullivan as she flees the challenges of her life in the big city and returns to the idyllic Nova Scotia campground owned and operated by her estranged father Sully. In October 2023, when Sullivan's Crossing was about to hit The CW after making waves north of the border, Cosmopolitan Magazine described Sullivan's Crossing as the “ultimate fall comfort watch.” If Sullivan's Crossing is the ultimate comfort watch, then Edna Cranebear, as played by Andrea Menard, is the show's ultimate source of comfort. Edna and her husband Frank – played by the legendary Tom Jackson (North of 60) – are Sully's oldest friends and the best example of a loving, honest, and mutually supportive relationship in Sullivan's Crossing. Andrea's filmography includes numerous fan favourite roles, like that of the fierce and feisty Debbie Fraser on Blackstone. Andrea is also a 15-time music award winner for her five albums, and she's toured her Metis cabaret, Rubaboo, across this land. She's a TEDx speaker, wellness trainer, founder of the Sacred Feminine Learning Lodge, has used her voice to encourage others to end violence against Indigenous women and girls, and, in 2021, was named ACTRA National's Woman of the Year. In short, Andrea contains multitudes. In this fascinating conversation, Andrea delves into these multitudes, and discusses how Sullivan's Crossing producers ensured they got Indigenous representation right, acting opposite Tom Jackson, how APTN changed the game for Indigenous artists, and the inherent joy in playing bad “B” Debbie Fraser on Blackstone.

Transcript included below…Today, we're going to talk about how to address our audiences well as we play.Even as we start this discussion, I'll give you a heads up about which direction I'm going – just in case you're wondering which type of guitarist I'm referring to.I'm talking about two types of guitarists today. First, I'll talk about a worship guitarist who offers their gifts as an act of worship in a setting where they are leading others to the Throne of Grace through music…and then, I'll be talking about a performing guitarist who shares his or her gifts in a message-driven Christian concert setting where people listen.Then I'll talk about what happens when those two worlds collide and a guitarist is invited to share a mixed set of songs with worship leading and some performance pieces. You ready? Let's go.There are all kinds of purposes for guitar playing beyond these two, but to keep our discussion focused, I'll stay in these two specific areas, blending them together at the end of our discussion.And there are specific needs that congregations and audiences have as they experience the offerings of these two guitarists, which are worth discussing. There is great wisdom in knowing our audience.So, if you're a worship guitarist, a performing guitarist, or you aspire to be either or both, this episode is for you.When it comes to playing the guitar in public for listeners, not all stages are equal, and not all offerings have the same purpose.I'd love to offer you some clarifications about what your audience is hoping for, and what you can bring to each of them when you play your guitar.Part 1 – The Worship GuitaristThe Lord called me to music ministry in the late 1990s. I had purchased my first guitar in 1994, and shortly afterwards, I was playing it at a family camp, and someone approached me saying, “Hey, you have a guitar. You could lead us in worship.”To experience the full story, I invite you to check out Guitar Serious Fun Episode 6: “Not Ready but Available.”It was at this point that I had just begun to grasp what it meant to lead worship with my guitar. Fast forward to present day, and I've led worship thousands of times, all over North America, and some seasons of worship ministry have found me leading on staff full-time and part-time at Christian churches of a few different sizes, from two hundred to almost two thousand.Sometimes, I've been a worship leader for four songs on a Sunday…other times I've led a couple songs to kick off a conference. In other settings, I've been a worship leader for multiple sessions at a retreat.Whatever the case, I've been entrusted with playing my guitar in such a way as to lead others in singing to the Lord.First of all, I'll ask an important question. Who is the audience in a worship environment? Well, if you said, “The Lord,” you'd be right. And the Lord asks that we “play skillfully and shout for joy” (Psalm 33:3) and bring contrition in our posture. Psalm 51:17 says “A broken and contrite heart You, o God, will not despise.”Everything we do, especially when we share our music, begins with the heart. Our expression as guitarists will flow from the condition of our hearts. Are we humble? Do we see ourselves as unworthy, yet called to approach the Lord with our gifts?Do we desire to come prepared, to play well for Him? That's my hope. He is worthy of our first fruits, not our leftovers, right?Now, the Lord is our primary Audience. Some have referred to Him as our “Audience of One.”Now, “audience” is a subjective term, because there could be people in a worship environment who are observing as I lead, and they may or may not be contributing with their voices in corporate worship.But they are observing.What do they witness from me as I play? Am I clear, confident, and do I lead well, but do I also remain peripheral?One class that has risen to the top in my collection of teaching offerings at conferences is a seminar I call “The Peripheral Worship Leader.”The word “peripheral” has to do with the outer part of the field of vision. Still visible, but not central.If we move into central position, we take the focus off the Lord. People are easily distracted, and we could potentially be contributing to this as worship guitarists. Catch this: we can be peripheral whether we're in the center of the platform or not. It's all about posture.We can also be invisible. By this, I mean we don't confidently (and yet humbly) show the congregation that we are leading them. If we “blend in” with the rest of the team and people don't understand who's leading the charge, we can also fade into the background, and this can be distracting as well .So, a guitarist could be distracting by action or omission. By action, he or she could play too prominently in the texture with big, flashy solos or with dynamics that aren't sensitive to the context. Or, he or she could be so meek that no one knows what to do next because there's no real leadership element in place.Let's be real: the people who have come to worship are not there to experience a concert. That's something we'll focus on in a few minutes.By omission, a guitarist could play out of tune, and as you might imagine, there are people who might not know which strings are out of tune, but they know something's not right.And again, people need to know who's leading, and someone has to lead the band (if there is a band) even if leadership roles are traded out with a few different worship leaders, even on the same set.We, as a congregation should always be able to tell who's leading us.It's a delicate balance we walk as worship guitarists, because people can be so easily distracted.In terms of the practical aspects, we can take specific steps towards maintaining and preparing our equipment, getting proper rest, having excellent communication with our technicians, rehearsing intentionally with our team, and being as familiar as possible with our music.And guess what? Even if we do everything in our power not to be distracting, something beyond our control could still happen, and people could still get distracted.But I'd say that being intentional and working towards preparation and skillful execution, while still having grace for ourselves and our collaborators, is a recipe for a healthy worship environment.Some worship musicians don't think this deeply about these kinds of things, but those who do tend to be more deliberate, and to offer an unwritten message about how much they feel the beautiful burden and calling for what they do.I can tell, within moments, if a worship musician is taking their calling seriously. But here's the paradox: we can take our calling and our Lord very seriously, and still not take ourselves too seriously. I am constantly striving to find this balance as well.Because if I'm playing precisely, but my body language communicates that I'm carrying a lot of stress, that's not going to ultimately be a blessing to anyone.So, I try to bring some levity to my rehearsals, and to intersperse appropriate humor. Exempli gratia: at a recent opportunity to lead worship for a multi-faceted Christian ministry organization, I asked the sound guy if he could put a bit more my “talent” in my monitor.I basically wanted him to make me more talented than I was.Everyone laughed, and we enjoyed the process that much more.So, as we think about our offerings as worship guitarists, let's check our hearts, bring our offerings with sincerity and humility, do all we can to play excellently, but still hold things loosely.Part 2 – The Performing GuitaristI wrote my first song in 1996. I went on to record multiple albums and to tour all over North America.But my touring largely consisted of concerts I performed. The albums I recorded were not worship songs. They were what I would call “testimonial” songs.Now, this is a broad stroke, but go here with me. Worship songs are typically simpler in song form, and more “singable,” whether with rhythms, melodies, or even ranges.Performance-type testimonial songs can sometimes have more complex song forms, are better to listen to (maybe the chorus is an opportunity to sing along), but can have more complex rhythms, less predictable melodies, and can go really high, because the listener doesn't have to sing those notes.So as a performing guitarist, I have a different posture, because my audience has a different set of expectations.When people come to a concert, they're much more in a posture of wanting to be ministered to. They are expecting to be taken on a bit of a journey, perhaps to hear stories, and as performance coach Tom Jackson has said, to experience moments.In my concerts, I incorporate multiple guitar techniques, from two-hand tapping, to looping, to playing the strings with a pencil or a violin bow, to multiple alternate tunings and harmonics, and more. But when I lead worship, my offering is much simpler.Really, with the exception of the occasional hammer-on, pull-off or slide, none of these above articulations would be appropriate for a worship set. They're too prominent and dare I say, showy in the wrong context. They draw the focus away from what we're doing in a worship environment, but they're very much welcome in a performance environment.In fact, I rely heavily on innovation and the “unpredictable” factor when it comes to playing for particular audiences, like people who've never heard me before.Some venues I've served have been what I call “Type B” audiences, where people are already present at an established gathering (like a church, school, retreat or conference). “Type B” audiences may or may not know who I am and what I'm bringing to the event, even if I've resourced them with a promotional video that highlights what I do.Conversely, “Type A” audiences are the ones who come to experience my ministry because they've followed me for a while and have gotten to know my music.A “Type B” audience can be transformed quickly into a “Type A” audience, but only if the guitarist is moving adeptly and swiftly through textures and moments that keep the audience engaged, and even guessing.I showed up to perform a concert at a “lock-in” for a junior high retreat, and the sound guy pretty much greeted me just as he was leaving. He said, “Hey, I've got a boom mic and a guitar channel all set up for you in there. Have fun.”I gently stopped him right there and said, “Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm about to try to hold the attention of a bunch of sugared-up junior highers for the better part of an hour. If I stand at a boom mic and just play my guitar, I'll lose them in the first 5-10 minutes.”It took a little explaining to get the sound guy on board, but then he eventually realized that my collection of instruments and unique tools (like my multi-colored Boomwhackers) were going to be needed to hold the attention of all of those kids, and therefore, there was a necessity to have a good backline of audio support, to say nothing of the video support that would also be needed to put images and lyrics on the screen that would carry them along with a multi-media experience.Some technicians think mostly about the tech, so we as guitarists sometimes need to do a bit of thinking for them about the artistic presentation.Exempli gratia: I like to use two or three boom mics at a concert, sometimes switching over to a headset mic. This is another “page” I've taken out of Tom Jackson's book.At a show I performed several years ago, I had a sound tech serving alongside me who was absolutely mystified about why I alternated between boom mic and headset mic.He asked, “Why don't you just use the headset mic the whole time?”I answered, “Because different songs will feel differently to the audience depending on the mic. There are different levels of pressure and dynamics associated with the visual experience of having these mics in place. A boom mic creates a slight barrier and anchors me in place more than a headset mic, which opens up the visual connection with the audience and allows me to roam about the stage.” He didn't really get it, but he supported me in it because he had plenty of channels, and that's what really matters.I had one sound tech encourage me to use an almost invisible flesh-colored mic as I led worship. But here's the problem with that. I like to signal the congregation (and everyone on my teams) that we are about to sing, as I step up to a boom mic. And when I move away, that is another way of communicating that we are not singing at that moment. The boom mic is a tool of communication even beyond conducting an audio signal.If I have a virtually invisible mic on, the congregation won't get that visual cue. I'll have to try to look down and demonstrably cue them with my eyebrows, which can look a little forced. So certain mics work better for a worship environment, and others can work better for a performance environment.In my concerts, sometimes I incorporate audience participation, which necessitates me roving about onstage, and even out into the audience. The wireless headset mic is perfect for this application.And my various guitar techniques, as well as different tempos, grooves, and even postures (standing, seated, roving about) will provide different dynamics for the audience to respond to. Humor, during a concert, can be super enjoyable. I typically don't try to be funny when I lead worship.So, it's important to “read the room,” and to “know your audience.”Part 3 - When Worlds Collide: Worship and Performance TogetherOccasionally, I find myself invited to a venue where I get to perform a concert and weave in some corporate worship. The typical venue for something like this is a family camp or a harvest festival. I love these opportunities.I also know what a delicate dance it can be to pivot to and from worship songs. Typically, I will follow each worship song with a short prayer, not in a perfunctory “I guess we'd better pray now” fashion, but rather to help us transition from the worship song to the next moment in the concert.The prayer allows us to recalibrate and to reacclimate to the performance dynamic.Now, it's all about being “in the moment.” If I have an audience ranging from five years old to 75, and I'm hoping to minister to them culturally, to keep the young ones engaged, and to simultaneously bless the senior saints with a rich message of substance, while performing some songs, incorporating some worship songs that most can sing along with, and weaving in some fun…I've got a pretty tall order to fill.But the good news is that the Lord can carry me through. Some of my work is in the planning of the set. But some of it is just observing people as they respond (or don't respond) to what I'm sharing during the event.Fortunately, I mix the audio for most of my shows from stage, so I can skip over songs that might not work. Even my projectionist works from a set list where he or she can jump to certain slides or videos if needed.So, in these family-friendly worship concerts, the set list is rarely executed exactly as planned…but the audience doesn't need to know that. They're just there to be ministered to and led in some worship.So, I go into a performance/worship presentation with a deliberate plan, and simultaneously I have open hands.And then, after I get home, I sleep very deeply.Wrap-UpWell, today we talked about how a worship guitarist and a performing guitarist can minister in a few different settings, and we touched on a lot of key points related to preparation, execution, the ability to be in the moment and to read the room, and especially how to know our audience.This is definitely a process and a craft that takes years to become proficient at. And if you're a worship guitarist, a performing guitarist, or you desire to be either or both of these, I hope you gleaned some wisdom today.If you've got questions, please offer them in the comments.

When Broncos first year head coach Dan Reeves drafted him in 1981, Steve Busick had already played with some big-name defensive teammates at USC: Clay Matthews, Ronnie Lott, Dennis Smith and Jeff Fisher to name a few. During his college career, the Trojans won back-to-back Rose Bowls and were National Champions in 1978. When the linebacker came to Denver he joined the likes of Tom Jackson, Randy Gradishar and Steve Foley on the Orange Crush Defense. Bottom line: Steve Busick knew what it meant to be surrounded by great teammates and how to win. Steve played 5 seasons in Denver and went to the playoffs twice. He was coming off what he felt was a solid year when the Broncos finished 11-5 in 1985 and Reeves called him into his office. He was trading Steve to the Rams where he would be reunited with his college head coach John Robinson. Steve wasn't happy about leaving Denver but liked the idea of playing for Robinson again. It didn't last long. A few games into the 1986 season, Steve tore his ACL and was done for the year. He tried to come back in 1987 but his knee wasn't the same. After he retired, Steve heard about a Denver glass company that was going out of business. He had just enough money to buy the business. With zero knowledge about windows or running a business, Steve hired the right people and built Busick Insulated Glass into a very successful company that has been going strong for over 3 decades.

Entre los siglos XVI y XVII se produjo en Europa una revolución, pero no una revolución al uso con soflamas y violencia callejera, sino una revolución silenciosa llevada a cabo en laboratorios caseros que tuvo consecuencias muy profundas en la forma en la que los seres humanos entendían el mundo. De aquella revolución nació la ciencia tal y como hoy la conocemos. Durante ese periodo una serie de mentes privilegiadas de distintos puntos del continente europeo realizaron grandes avances en numerosas áreas del conocimiento como las matemáticas, la astronomía, la biología, la física y la química. Estos desarrollos servirían más adelante para crear las máquinas que pusieron en marcha la revolución industrial y el mundo contemporáneo. Serían también la base que otros genios utilizarían para extender aún más la frontera del conocimiento. No se sabe muy bien cuando empezó todo, pero su fecha de arranque convencional es la publicación en 1543 de “De revolutionibus orbium coelestium” (Sobre los giros de los cuerpos celestes) por parte de un canónigo polaco llamado Nicolás Copérnico. Este libro fue muy discutido en su época porque ponía fin a la teoría geocéntrica, aquella que se sustentaba sobre la creencia de que la Tierra estaba en el centro del universo y el resto de los cuerpos celestes orbitaban en torno a ella. Copérnico demostró que no era así dejando la puerta abierta a un camino que otros no tardarían en transitar. Empezaron a aparecer nombres, muchas veces vinculados con prestigiosas universidades, que se replantearon consensos muy antiguos pero fundamentados más en la creencia que en la experimentación, más en los argumentos de autoridad que en la fuerza de los hechos observables y medibles. De este siglo y medio de curiosidad, reflexión e invenciones salió la teoría de la gravitación universal, formulada por el físico inglés Isaac Newton, e infinidad de avances en campos tan variados como la anatomía humana, la química, la óptica y la electricidad que se sustanciaron en las primeras autopsias sistemáticas, la invención del telescopio, las leyes del movimiento de los planetas o la teoría ondulatoria de la luz. Estos primeros científicos modernos tuvieron que valerse de nuevos procedimientos y también de nuevas formas de trabajar que fueron teorizando y llevando a la práctica. Así fue como nació el empirismo, un tipo de razonamiento deductivo que cambió de lleno el marco teórico de la ciencia ya que exige experimentar, observar el objeto de estudio, sacar conclusiones y cuantificar los fenómenos. Para esto último hizo falta profundizar en el conocimiento de las matemáticas, una herramienta cuyo dominio permitió ir mucho más allá en los siglos siguientes y acelerar los avances a partir del siglo XVIII. Para entonces la ciencia ya se había institucionalizado. En Inglaterra fue fundada en 1660 la Royal Society, una institución con patrocinio regio, pero de titularidad privada dedicada al avance de la ciencia natural. Años más tarde, Luis XIV creo en Francia la Real Academia de las Ciencias que instaló en el Louvre parisino. El llamado siglo de las luces nunca hubiese existido sin este impulso decisivo que recibió durante los años precedentes y al que nuestro mundo tanto le debe.

The Huron Carol may not be especially well-known by Americans, but in Canada, this song is a national treasure! It has been performed by some of Canada's biggest recording artists, from Sarah McLachlan to Toronto Children's Chorus. For decades now, Indigenous actor and singer, Tom Jackson, has performed a Christmas benefit concert in the carol's name. But, beloved as this carol may be, it also comes with painful historical baggage. It was written by St. Jean de Brebeuf, a Jesuit missionary and martyr who lived with the Wendat people and immersed himself in their language, culture and spirituality. It is out of this experience that Canada's Christmas carol was born. Since the mid 17th century, when Brebeuf first penned the song in Wendat, the Huron Carol has been translated and reinterpreted several times over. “Twas in the Moon of Wintertime,” is the most popular version of the carol today, but its English lyrics bears little resemblance to the original and distorts Wendat culture. To help us unpack this Christmas carol, with a history complicated by centuries of colonialism, we speak with three Canadians: Geneviève Salamone, an Indigenous violinist and activist; John Steckley, one of the foremost scholars of the Wendat language; and the Rev. Michael Knox, S.J., the director of Martyr's Shrine in Midland, Ontario. Special thanks to Geneviève Salamone for recording The Huron Carol especially for this show, and to Aidan Baker and Broken Spine Productions, Cynthia Boener, Lief Sjostrom, Don Ross, Debra Buesking, Keith Michael Roman, Brian Thiessen and Dana Lynn Seaborn, and Heather Dale for providing much of the music on this episode.

From 1976 to 1982, the Denver Broncos featured a 3-4 defense, nicknamed the Orange Crush, that was as good a defensive unit as the NFL has ever experienced. A hard hitting, fearless crew from front to back, the Orange Crush starred football legends including Lyle Alzado, Randy Gradishar, Tom Jackson, Louis Wright and Billy Thompson. They were led by Defensive Coordinator, Joe Collier, one of the great coordinators in NFL history and became the driving force behind the Broncos first trip to the Super Bowl, Super Bowl 12 in early 1978 against the Dallas Cowboys in New Orleans.
