(Hunter Morrison / KRBD) Wildlife across southern Southeast Alaska is emerging from wintertime hibernation, but in Metlakatla on Annette Island, animals are not the only things waking up. Canoes are hitting the water again, marking this year's start of a Tsimshian tradition that is tied to the village's history. KRBD's Hunter Morrison tagged along for a recent canoe journey, and has this story. About a dozen people are holding cedar boughs in a driveway on the outskirts of town. Seated atop a nearby trailer is a long, white canoe. David Nelson grabs his drum and begins singing. As the drumbeats echo through the subdivision, the mixed-aged crowd cleanses and awakens the vessel by brushing the cedar along its sides. The song's lyrics honor the canoe and welcome its paddlers. It has not been performed in three years. “We believe they’re like a living, breathing thing, so we treat it as such. We say ‘hello' to it, and when we put it away, we tell you ‘it was good to be you,' and we thank it for doing everything.” The ceremony marks the start of the canoe's spring and summertime journey. The 40-foot long Nahaaygm Lagyigyedm (Spirit of Our Ancestors) has navigated Metlakatla's waters and traveled to neighboring islands since 2013. Johon Atkinson, president of the nonprofit Liwaayda, says the organization's goal is to share Tsimshian culture and bring Metlakatla back to its canoeing roots, which dates back over 130 years. “So the whole reason why we got this canoe was to get our people in Metlakatla out on water.” While today's canoes are often used to educate people about Tsimshian culture, Atkinson says they are still important to traditional practices. Later this month, the Spirit of Our Ancestors will be used in Metlakatla to harvest seaweed from neighboring islands. “It’s that feeling of we’re going to be on the ocean, on the highways of our ancestors. And just that feeling is so comforting. I feel complete when it is canoe season.” Minutes after its blessing, the canoe is towed to a boat launch, from which they will paddle to nearby One Tree Island. Johon Atkinson, right, and family members cleanse the Spirit of Our Ancestors with cedar boughs before the canoe's first journey of the season. (Photo: Hunter Morrison / KRBD) Atkinson, who is joined by his son, niece, and nephew, hopes fun opportunities like these can help keep Tsimshian traditions alive for the next generation. “Having them experience this now is something that many of us adults have not experienced at their age. So the fact that they are here, learning and leading – there’s just no words on how amazing that is.” Atkinson says folks from all over the country visit Metlakatla each summer to experience the village's canoe journeys firsthand. (Courtesy Robert Nick family) Robert Nick was a man of the Southwest Alaska tundra – and much more. He died last month at the age of 84. His memorial service was at St. Innocent Russian Orthodox Cathedral in Anchorage last week where, as Rhonda McBride from our flagship station KNBA tells us, he was remembered for a lifetime of public service. Robert Nick's Russian Orthodox service was fitting for a man who loved the harmonies of the Slavonic choir. He was known to pass out recordings of his favorite hymns to friends and fellow singers. For Andrew Guy (Yup'ik), president of the Calista Native Corporation, Nick represents the end of an era. “He's part of that group that came from having no electricity, no outboard, to where we are today.” (Courtesy Robert Nick family) Nick helped bring electricity to villages throughout Southwest Alaska through his work with the Alaska Village Electric Cooperative, an organization he helped found. He also ran a store in Nunapitchuk, a village near Bethel, Alaska where he grew up. Richard Jung (Yup'ik), who owned Jung's Trading Post, in the neighboring village of Napakiak, said Nick's leadership grew from the values he was raised in. “One of the things you're taught is to help people. You try to do what you can for your village and your region. And he was one of those guys that did that./ He knew that he could get things done and was one of the ones that knew he had to do it. He was just a fine person.” Robert Nick was very proud that he was the first in his family to receive a Western education and graduate from high school. That achievement became a foundation for decades of service on boards and commissions that focused on a wide range of causes: health, education, housing, economic development, job training, and protecting the Yup'ik subsistence way of life. (Courtesy Robert Nick family) His niece Karen Cooke Phillips (Yup'ik) says he was tireless. “Attending meetings, after meetings, for days and hours, and for continued years.” And yet, Phillips says, his home was filled with love, a reflection of his early life. Nick was the eldest of nine children. After his father died, he took over his father's store and helped to provide for his younger brothers and sisters – an experience Phillips says shaped his lifelong role as a father figure – not just within his family but across the region. “He has been in those arenas, leading in lots of different organizations and providing a voice for people from our region, or the lifestyle of the people of our region.” Nick had two twin passions, housing and education. He dedicated many years of his life to improving housing conditions in rural Alaska. Eventually, he became a national advocate for federal Indian housing programs and brought attention to the Third World conditions in Alaska villages. He also served on the Lower Kuskokwim School Board for two decades and became its longtime chairman. Steve O'Brien, a former school principal, remembers giving Nick a copy of Robert Rules of order to help him. “And he laughed, and he said, ‘Oh, I already have that book.' And he reached behind from the bookshelf, and he pulled down this very worn and earmarked copy of Robert's Rules with sticky pages and stuff. He was an expert about this stuff.” O'Brien says it is no surprise that Robert Nick was eventually asked to chair almost every board he served on. In 2014, Nick received an honorary Doctorate of Laws degree from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. (Courtesy Robert Nick family) Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

I bought some second-hand bunks this week. High quality. Good stuff. Perfect for the nine-year-old's bedroom. But to make way for his new addition, I needed to pack up his old bed. It was a king single – nothing fancy. Built from a little kit set with Allen key screws and cheap wood. But the bed was still in reasonable condition, and even though we didn't need it anymore, I figured it might be useful for another family. At the very least, before condemning it to landfill, I thought it worth a quick check. Brand new, the bed must only have cost $400, so I did what I thought was the right thing. I took a few photos then I took it apart, labelled the screws, and neatly stacked up the various pieces. I put an ad on Facebook Marketplace: Free kid's bed frame. King single. Free if you're happy to pick it up. Now, look. I know there's more than enough junk in this world. I didn't have any grand expectations that anyone would even want the bed. I certainly didn't oversell it. But no sooner had I put it online, I started receiving messages asking if it was available. Yep, I said. It sure is. I marked the listing as sold and with the first person to message me, I arranged a time to hand over the bed the following day. Given I was due to be at work, I explained to the buyer I'd have to sort out someone else to be home to help with the handover instead of leaving the bed outside in the rain. Job done, I figured. All sorted. Win-win. Except the person never showed. Never turned up. Never messaged to explain or apologise. Just went incommunicado. Ghosted me. They'd been dead keen 24 hours earlier, but something, apparently, had changed. Even though they knew I was arranging to get someone else to be at home to give them something they wanted for free, apparently I wasn't worth even a cursory note. It's funny how different trading fora have slightly different cultures. When I was a kid, before the internet was really in use and TradeMe was a thing, we had the Buy, Sell and Exchange. It cost a few bucks to buy each week, and it was a treasure trove of junk. I was too young to trade anything, but I loved browsing through the pages. If you had any questions about an item, you had to give someone a call. We had the Trading Post on radio, which was always an amazing listen, and TradeMe's been the big digital player here since its inception. But these days, Facebook Marketplace is responsible for a growing number of trades. In my experience, it's usually for stuff that's less suitable for auctions. A fixed price. A quick trade. Bob's your uncle. It's also the best place for giving stuff away for free or nearly for free. There's no fee. No one pays anything. But there's a downside. This week's saga with the bed wasn't the first time I've been stood up without explanation by someone who a few hours earlier was apparently desperate for an item and grateful to be receiving it for nothing. I've only done about half a dozen trades on Marketplace. I reckon for half of them I've been stood up. I just find it so rude. Who are these people? I can't imagine messaging a stranger, knowing they'd made arrangements to help me with something, and then changing my mind and being so unconcerned with how it affected them, that I wouldn't even bother sending them a sentence. Maybe it says something about our wider culture. It's transactional. People aren't bothered by throw-away relationships. You're only valuable to someone else if they can get something out of you. I put the bed back up online and someone else immediately asked if they could take it. They're supposed to collect it today, so we'll see how that works out. But honestly, it wasn't the bed that got me, it was the principle. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're speculating on WoW patch 12.0.7 and beyond, now that the preview for said patch has been released. That leads us to a certain ominous island off the coast of Zul'Aman that we're not allowed to touch yet, plus all the other little details that lead us to guest host Phil Ulrich's favorite thing ever: Troll Raid.But other than that, it's all cosmetics and microtransactions. There are gorgeous new, dyeable WoW crossover appearances in Diablo 4, treehouses for WoW Player Housing, and another of those gatchas we hate in Hearthstone, all for actual cash folding money. But at least we have the glorious Trading Post and all its free hats and mounts to keep us just the tiniest bit happy in this capitalist hellscape.Speaking of hellscapes, The Cow Level is real and it is just as awful to find in Diablo 4 as you probably expect.If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.

The Shallows EP 012 - The Trading Post Erik Hinrichsen and Carson Picard navigate through The Shallows, starting with the Captain's Report detailing injuries to Garret Crochet, Brandon Woodruff, and Trevor Rogers, as well as the future outlook for former number one overall pick Travis Bazzana, position eligibility updates for Fernando Tatis Jr, Ivan Herrera, and Sal Stewart, and how Cade Cavalli became the second pitcher this season with back-to-back double-digit strikeout games...so does that make him worthy of a pickup? Speaking of worthy, the guys then discuss if the hot starts from players like Moises Ballesteros, Carlos Cortes, Ildemaro Vargas, Liam Hicks, and Landon Roupp are worthy of those starts in a fun twist on "is it legit." Finally they visit the trading post to decide if players such as Bubba Chandler, Nathan Eovaldi, and Oneil, among others off to hot or cold starts, are worth buying or selling.

Midnight releases into early access later this week, and then full release next week, so for now the crew is pretty much just in waiting mode. Even if you didn't get early access, you can still get into the action because the pre-patch event will go on until the very last minute. In the meantime, there's also the Outland Cup, and the new Trading Post (which, as always, our cohosts have a ton of opinions about).Plus, the hosts would like to nap, which I can support, but they'd also like to nap while mounted and driving around which seems a little irresponsible.Oh, and by the way, there's going to be an Overwatch mobile game. Yeah, that was pretty much our reaction too.If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.
