In this week’s episode we be talking with Seth Swerczek about pistol bullets from Hornady For listeners of this podcast I want to give you an advance heads up on a new product from MantisX called the Tor-X available the first week of August 2024. The TOR-X is the sublime marriage of the military-grade Steiner laser and the power of the MantisX. The MantisX hardware is now integrated inside a Steiner laser. Pair it via Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet, and you’re training package just got more complete. Combat-worthy lights and lasers, Mil-grade aluminum, built Steiner strong. Designed to expose, blind and target with maximum impact. Up to any challenge. Just like you. The TOR-X features a Type III hard-anodized machined-aluminum housing and rail mount. It is dustproof, splash-proof to IP54 standards, and available with a green (520 nm) laser. The direct diode type laser operates in extreme cold weather. Other features include left and right fire buttons for ambidextrous use, constant power drive that ensures the laser output remains constant throughout the life of the battery, low battery indication, as well as windage and elevation bore sight adjustment screws. The universal rail mount on the TOR-X will fit all pistols that have a Picatinny or Weaver style rail forward of the trigger guard. This design allows optimum positioning of the laser so that the fire buttons are easily accessible for a wide range of users. I’ve been using the Tor-X for several weeks on my Glock17 and my Glock48 now and when paired with the MantisX app it’s taken my training to a new level.

.entry-img img{ display:none !important; } .single .hentry .entry-img{ display:none !important; } https://open.spotify.com/episode/3kw8uHSos6XKFrZncc2CEa Artificial intelligence is transforming the finance function, but most finance teams are still missing the skills to use it confidently, safely, and at scale. The real competitive advantage now lies in how quickly finance leaders can close this AI capability gap across their teams. In this episode, GrowCFO host Kevin Appleby is joined by GrowCFO Facilitator and AI training specialist Guy Weaver to unpack the AI skills gap that is rapidly emerging across finance teams. As AI tools move from experiment to everyday infrastructure, finance leaders face a stark choice: either build the skills to harness these tools strategically or risk falling behind competitors who do. AI is presented not as a “nice to have” experiment, but as a core capability that will shape productivity, decision quality, and the operating model of modern finance functions. Guy shares his journey from chartered accountant and venture capital portfolio director to AI practitioner and trainer, showing how a period on gardening leave became a deep dive into tools, agents, automations, and real-world business use cases. He explains that the real differentiator is no longer access to platforms like Copilot, Claude, or ChatGPT, but the human skills to design prompts, architect workflows, manage context files, and control costs at scale. Rather than eliminating finance jobs, AI is creating new responsibilities around context management, token and cost optimization, and continuous model evaluation—and finance leaders who invest early in mindset shifts, foundational skills, and disciplined experimentation will unlock both efficiency gains and new strategic opportunities that slower adopters will miss. Key topics covered: Why the AI skills gap is now a core strategic issue for finance leaders. Guy's journey from chartered accountant and VC to AI trainer for finance teams. The essential foundational skills: prompting, architecture, and context management. How AI is creating new roles and responsibilities instead of simply removing jobs. Managing AI cost, tokens, and model choice like any other major operating expense. The danger of AI-built financial models without proper financial modeling discipline.

Saving Elephants | Millennials defending & expressing conservative values
Richard Weaver was a twentieth century American scholar and rhetorician whose writings were praised by the likes of Russell Kirk, William F. Buckley, Willmoore Kendall, and Frank Meyer. But nowadays Weaver is either derided as a racially charged Southern sympathizer or accused of preparing the way for the MAGA movement and authoritarianism. If he's discussed at all. Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is Michael Lucchese, whose latest essay in Law and Liberty defends Weaver's contributions to the intellectual Right and argues his writings are still instructive for the conservative today. This episode explores Weaver's actual views on the South and racism, his battles with the neo-gnostics of his day, his peculiar admiration for libertarians and Abraham Lincoln, and his greatest foe, William of Occam. Check out Michael's essay on Weaver, Turning the Clock Back Also, check out the book he edited compiling a collection of Russell Kirk's observations on America's founding, On America: How to Understand the Legacy of 1776 About Michael Lucchese From Pipe Creek Consulting Michael Lucchese is the founder and CEO of Pipe Creek Consulting, a communications firm based in Washington, D.C. He is also an associate editor of Law & Liberty and a contributing editor to Providence. He has been elected to membership in the Academy of Philosophy and Letters, the Ciceronian Society, and the Philadelphia Society, and serves on the board of the Institute for Christianity and Common Life, which publishes Mere Orthodoxy. Previously, he was a Krauthammer Fellow with the Tikvah Fund, a visiting scholar at Liberty Fund, and an aide to U.S. Senator Ben Sasse. His writing on national security, the conservative movement, and the American Founding has been published widely at outlets such as the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, National Review, and the Washington Examiner. He graduated from Hillsdale College with a B.A. in American Studies, and is an alumnus of the Hudson Institute Political Studies Program.

Looking for daily inspiration? Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning. Lauren Weaver is the Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at Sally Dark Rides. Raised in Jacksonville, Florida, Lauren grew up immersed in the attractions industry through her family's business and early exposure to IAAPA expos and theme parks around the world. After graduating from Florida State University with a degree in international affairs, she spent time working at Adventure Landing to gain operational experience before joining Sally Dark Rides and helping lead the company's marketing and promotional efforts. In this interview, Lauren talks about the impact of dark rides, reciprocal marketing, and growing up in the industry. The impact of dark rides “One of the best things about a dark ride is that it truly gives you a memory that you walk away with and that you hold onto.” Lauren explains that dark rides create a unique emotional connection for guests because they allow families to experience attractions together rather than splitting up due to height restrictions or thrill intensity. She shares how dark rides can become defining attractions for parks, helping create traditions that span generations. Unlike many attractions that cater to specific audiences, dark rides provide a shared storytelling experience where parents and children can enjoy the same adventure side by side. She also discusses how strong themed storytelling extends beyond the attraction itself. Using examples like Phantom Theater at Kings Island and Cupfusion at Hersheypark, Lauren highlights how dark ride characters and stories can influence food and beverage, merchandise, and other attractions throughout a park. She emphasizes that a successful dark ride delivers both short-term excitement and long-term return on investment through nostalgia, repeat visitation, and multi-generational appeal. Reciprocal marketing “If they're making our product look good, and I'm helping them make our product look good, we both shine.” Lauren shares how marketing a dark ride differs from promoting visible attractions like roller coasters. Since guests cannot immediately see what is inside the attraction building, the marketing must focus on story, mystery, characters, and anticipation. She describes how Sally Dark Rides collaborated with Kings Island to build excitement around Phantom Theater by teasing mysterious developments and releasing behind-the-scenes content that generated strong engagement on social media. She also explains the reciprocal nature of attraction marketing between manufacturers and parks. When a park promotes a new attraction, it elevates the visibility of the supplier that created it. At the same time, Sally Dark Rides actively supports its clients through content creation, trade show exposure, and production updates that help parks market their new attractions more effectively. Lauren notes that this partnership-driven approach allows both companies to benefit from each other's visibility and credibility within the industry. Growing up in the industry “As soon as you get a taste of this wonderful and incredibly fun attractions industry, you get addicted.” Lauren reflects on growing up around the attractions business and attending IAAPA expos from a young age with her father, Sally Dark Rides co-founder John Wood. She recalls how overwhelming and exciting the trade shows felt as a child, constantly meeting new people and learning about innovative attractions. Rather than simply observing, she was encouraged to actively participate by speaking with attendees and helping represent the company on the trade show floor. That early exposure helped shape her passion for the industry and ultimately influenced her career path. Lauren also credits her time working at Adventure Landing for giving her valuable operational perspective, from handling birthday parties to managing large group events and learning how multiple departments work together to create a seamless guest experience. She believes those experiences strengthened her understanding of what parks truly need from their attraction partners and helped prepare her for her current leadership role at Sally Dark Rides. Lauren can be reached on LinkedIn, as well as on Facebook. To learn more about Sally Dark Rides, visit www.sallydarkrides.com.

THE TRUTH ABOUT GUNS Can You Shoot 5.56 Through a .22 Suppressor? – The Truth About Guns Can you shoot 5.56 through a .22 suppressor? Usually no. Here's why pressure, heat, and gas volume matter so much. The article addresses whether .556/.223 ammunition can be safely fired through a standard .22LR (rimfire) suppressor. In the general case, it is not safe or recommended. Most dedicated rimfire suppressors are engineered only for the much lower pressures, smaller gas volumes, and reduced heat produced by .22LR, .22WMR, or similar rimfire cartridges. NSSF NSSF Releases Most Recent Firearm Production Figures (ATF AFMER 2023) Over 32 million Modern Sporting Rifles in Circulation WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, released the Firearm Production in the United States including the Firearm Import and Export Data 2025 Edition (reporting 2023 data) to its members. The report compiles the most up-to-date information based on data sourced from the Bureau of Alcohol, […] According to the NSSF article dated January 15, 2026, ATF AFMER data shows 2023 U.S. domestic firearm production at 8,466,729 units, a 15.4% decrease from 2022. Total firearms made available for the U.S. market in 2023 were 13,574,653 (handguns 8,176,535; rifles 3,899,907; shotguns 1,498,211). Cumulative civilian firearms in possession 1990–2023 reached 506.1 million, with modern sporting rifles (MSRs) in circulation estimated at over 32 million. GUN FIGHTS Play the best Price Is Right-style GunBroker game on the internet. BANGRANK A live cast ranking segment for anything and everything in the gun world, powered by questionable certainty, strong opinions, and audience voting. THE AGENCY BRIEF Agency Update 1. AGENCY BRIEF: RUBY RIDGEWhat Ruby Ridge really was: a federal pressure campaign over a minor, technical gun charge that turned into a botched siege, unconstitutional rules of engagement, and the killing of a mother and her child. The setup started in 1989. The ATF wanted an informant inside Aryan Nations circles in northern Idaho. They targeted Randy Weaver, an Army veteran living off-grid with his family. Weaver had racist beliefs and associations, but constitutional limits matter most when the person in the government's sights is unpopular. The ATF used an informant to cultivate Weaver and buy two shotguns. The agency claimed the barrels were cut a fraction of an inch below the 18-inch legal minimum. Whether Weaver cut them at the informant's request or sold them as-is is heavily disputed. What is confirmed is what happened next: the ATF did not arrest him to protect the public. They used the federal firearms charge as leverage to pressure Weaver into becoming a paid snitch. Weaver refused. Because he refused, the ATF pushed the case to prosecutors, and Weaver was indicted in late 1990. Then came the bureaucratic failure. Weaver's court-appointed attorney was sent a notice with the wrong appearance date, and Weaver missed his hearing. Instead of resolving a government paperwork error cleanly, the system escalated. The U.S. Marshals launched an 18-month surveillance operation on his remote cabin. In August 1992, an armed reconnaissance team of Marshals encountered Weaver's 14-year-old son Sammy and family friend Kevin Harris in the woods. A firefight erupted. Exactly who fired first remains disputed, but the results are not: the family dog was killed, Sammy Weaver was shot and killed while running back toward the cabin, and Deputy U.S. Marshal William Degan was killed. The FBI's Hostage Rescue Team was called in to take over. Instead of containment, the FBI adopted modified, unconstitutional rules of engagement. In plain English, agents were told they “could and should” shoot any armed adult male seen outside the cabin. FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi fired two shots. The first wounded Randy Weaver. The second shot, fired as Weaver and Harris retreated, passed through the cabin door and hit Vicki Weaver in the head while she stood in the doorway holding her 10-month-old infant. She died instantly. The legal aftermath demolished the government's narrative: A federal jury acquitted Kevin Harris of murder on self-defense grounds. Randy Weaver was acquitted of all original firearms and murder charges, convicted only of failure to appear and a bail condition violation. A 1995 Department of Justice review found the FBI's modified rules of engagement unconstitutional. The federal government paid over $3 million in civil settlements to the surviving family. Despite Senate hearings and state-level indictments, no federal agent ever served a day in prison for the killings. 2. WHY IT MATTERS Ruby Ridge is the ultimate case study in how federal agencies use technical firearms violations to manufacture leverage, and what happens when their targets refuse to bend. This operation was never about public safety. It was about coercion. When Weaver wouldn't play ball, the agency's objective shifted from investigation to punishment, kicking off a predictable escalation ladder: Use a regulatory charge as a trap. Demand intelligence cooperation, and turn refusal into a target on the citizen's back. Treat a procedural court-date mistake as a fugitive manhunt. Deploy paramilitary recon teams for a paperwork warrant. Rewrite deadly force rules on the fly to authorize a shoot-on-sight posture. Once federal agencies invest that much time, manpower, and ego, the institutional pressure to justify the operation takes over. They stop seeing citizens with rights, and start treating them as enemy combatants on American soil. 3. THE 2A ANGLE For gun owners, Ruby Ridge is the blood-soaked warning label on every “it's just a paperwork violation” argument. The underlying charge was a National Firearms Act measurement. That is the exact kind of regulatory trap Washington loves to describe as narrow, reasonable, and harmless. But in practice, technical gun laws give agencies the legal cover to ruin lives. That is the modern lesson for FFLs navigating zero-tolerance revocations, home builders facing shifting administrative definitions, and ordinary owners one bad pistol-brace ruling away from becoming a federal case file. Apply the Supreme Court's Bruen standard to the government's actions. There is zero text, history, or tradition from the founding era of a permanent federal bureaucracy measuring the barrels of defensive weapons to coerce citizens into acting as informants, and then militarizing a warrant service when the citizen refuses. The Founders would not recognize a system that turns a man into a felon over a quarter-inch of steel. Heller proved that the Second Amendment protects an individual right. But rights on paper mean nothing if the enforcement state can use a minor regulatory allegation to justify surveillance, coercion, and deadly force. The strongest takeaway from Ruby Ridge is that when the federal government wields broad, discretionary power over firearms, abuse is not a glitch. It is the natural result. When agencies can turn a fractional barrel measurement into a capital siege, the process itself becomes the punishment. Being technically compliant doesn't protect you; it just makes you useful until you aren't anymore. GOING BALLISTIC AMMOLAND SHOOTING SPORTS NEWS(Savage) NRA, FPC, SAF v. Maryland (SB 334 Glock-Style Handgun Ban) NRA, FPC, and SAF filed a federal lawsuit challenging Maryland's SB 334, arguing the state's Glock-style handgun ban violates the Second Amendment.

In 1992, the FBI surrounded the home of the Weaver family, and were preparing to take no prisoners. It had a horrifying outcome, but what led to this scenario was even weirder: misunderstandings, some trickery by the feds, and an atmosphere ready to ignite.

Beka Goedde and Mandolyn Wilson Rosen join me this episode to unpack our experience visiting renowned artist, Louise Bourgeois' home in NYC. We entered her historic brownstone and were immediately transported to another world and time. Louise lived a full life but was very much an artistic homebody. She made her home her studio in every sense of the word, stuffing each room full of materials to be on hand whenever inspiration struck. She found a way to balance family life with making her work and rode out long career lulls with grace and determination. Come along with us as we discuss our peek inside her sanctuary.More about Louise Bourgeois: https://www.moma.org/artists/710-louise-bourgeoishttps://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/gallery/2013/oct/18/bourgeoishttps://hicarquitectura.com/2022/12/louise-bourgeoise-femme-maison/Great film about Louise Bourgeois: Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, the Mistress, and the Tangerine 2008Bourgeois works mentioned: "Arched Figure" 1993, "Maman" 1999Bourgeois exhibitions mentioned: The Women at Peggy Guggenheim's Art of This Century gallery NYC 1945, Eccentric Abstraction, curated by Lucy Lippard at The Fischbach Gallery NYC 1966 Artists / Writers mentioned: Joyce Kosloff, Faith Ringgold, Sylvia Sleigh, Lucy Lippard, Linda Nochlin, Joan Snyder, Nancy Spero, Howardena Pindell, Delacroix, Matisse, Suzanne ValadonBeka mentioned Felix Harlan, master printmaker and co-founder of Harlan & Weaver, a fine art print publishing studio who made so many Bourgeois prints.1973 Feminists' letter to William Rubin at MoMA: https://brooklynrail.org/2017/11/verbatim/Louise-Bourgeois-Breaking-the-Mold/Further reading: Louise Bourgeois: Drawings and Observations, Ed.

What happens when shame, disappointment, and hidden wounds pull you farther from God than you ever thought possible? And can a life marked by failure truly be restored?In this deeply honest and hope-filled conversation, Robin shares her remarkable journey through ministry wounds, miscarriages, moral failure, restoration, and the overwhelming grace of God that changed everything.Raised in a pastor's home and shaped by both miracles and hardship, Robin opens up about the hidden walls she built around her heart, the pain that slowly pulled her away from God's path, and the moment she cried out for rescue when she could no longer find her way back on her own.

Primal (2019-) is an animated series by Gendy Tartakovsky set in an alternate prehistory in which Neanderthals and dinosaurs coexist. Setting aside the anachronisms, this series has received critical acclaim for its emotional depth and unique visual storytelling format. Kim doesn't care about that—she was too traumatized by the first episode to watch any further.

Your favourite DJ's favourite punk band are back, and they've brought the sweat with them. There was a Young Band from the Paradise Palms, Who played with such fury it rattled your arms, They grooved like the ESG, bit like The Slits, And drove Windmill Brixton completely to bits! “O come to our Party!” cried Bikini Body, “It's perfectly sweaty and pleasantly shoddy! The bassline is punching, the drumming is tight, And everyone's dancing till quarter to light!” So they packed up the Palms and they played BBC, And KEXP and Radio 6 and NTS and free, And the dancefloor said “Goodness!” and the basement said “More!” And nobody quite knew what a party was for. Bikini Body return with the Weirdest Party EP, their first release on Paradise Palms Records following two records on Optimo Music – a pairing that did a lot to define both their trajectory and their restless, hybrid sound. This new set pushes further into the territory they've made their own: the charged, uneasy space where dancefloor pressure and punk confrontation refuse to separate. Percussive, physical and wired with attitude, the tracks draw a lineage that runs from ESG and Liquid Liquid through Bush Tetras, The Slits and X-Ray Spex, with the remixes opening things out for club systems without sanding off a single rough edge. It's music that works equally hard in a sweaty basement and on a packed dancefloor – which, given a 13-date UK co-headline tour ending in a sold-out London show, a packed Windmill Brixton headline, and airplay across BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, KEXP and NTS, appears to be exactly where people are putting it. Weirdest Party EP is out on Paradise Palms Records on 22nd May 2026. Catch them live on our stage at Another Thought on 13th June.
In this week’s episode we be talking with Mike Harris and John Green from Gun Owner Action League (GOAL). For listeners of this podcast I want to give you an advance heads up on a new product from MantisX called the Tor-X available the first week of August 2024. The TOR-X is the sublime marriage of the military-grade Steiner laser and the power of the MantisX. The MantisX hardware is now integrated inside a Steiner laser. Pair it via Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet, and you’re training package just got more complete. Combat-worthy lights and lasers, Mil-grade aluminum, built Steiner strong. Designed to expose, blind and target with maximum impact. Up to any challenge. Just like you. The TOR-X features a Type III hard-anodized machined-aluminum housing and rail mount. It is dustproof, splash-proof to IP54 standards, and available with a green (520 nm) laser. The direct diode type laser operates in extreme cold weather. Other features include left and right fire buttons for ambidextrous use, constant power drive that ensures the laser output remains constant throughout the life of the battery, low battery indication, as well as windage and elevation bore sight adjustment screws. The universal rail mount on the TOR-X will fit all pistols that have a Picatinny or Weaver style rail forward of the trigger guard. This design allows optimum positioning of the laser so that the fire buttons are easily accessible for a wide range of users. I’ve been using the Tor-X for several weeks on my Glock17 and my Glock48 now and when paired with the MantisX app it’s taken my training to a new level.

Book Club Podcast: Fiber art veterans Susan Bateman and Melissa Parsons compare notes with host Anne Merrow about the books every weaver, spinner, knitter, and crocheter should have on the bookshelf—plus big news about a classic weaving directory. They're the first books you reach for, the ones you'll never part with, and the first thing you recommend to every new crafter. If you have only one book on weaving, spinning, knitting, and crochet, make it one of these. In this episode of the Long Thread Podcast, three book lovers talk about what reading material we'd never be without. Multishaft Weavers Technique Books Learning to Weave by Deborah Chandler The classic book on four-harness weaving, this updated edition includes clear and approachable explanations, illustrations, and instructions for warping both from front to back and back to front. Weaving for Beginners, Revised and Updated by Peggy Osterkamp Another look at weaving fundamentals, Osterkamp's thorough book is especially strong in back-to-front warping. Pattern Directories Big news for “The Green Book”—A Handweaver's Pattern Book by Marguerite Porter Davison The first version of Davison's four-harness pattern directory was published in 1944, and weavers have been hunting for used copies since it went out of print decades later. A group of weavers has been quietly working on a major new edition, with new samples woven in color and contemporary drafts, which Schiffer Publishing will release in 2027! Handwoven and Yarn Barn of Kansas join the crowd of weavers eager to add the new book to our shelves. A Weaver's Book of 8-Shaft Patterns from the Friends of Handwoven, edited by Carol Strickler Organized by structure and endlessly browsable, this is the book 8-shaft weavers keep within reach when dreaming up a new project. Rigid-Heddle Weavers Ashford Book of Rigid Heddle Weaving by Rowena Hart A thorough guide to the fundamentals, this is unbeatable for its step-by-step warping and threading photography. Inventive Weaving on a Little Loom by Syne Mitchell This creative and ambitious book shows you ways of weaving that you never thought possible on a rigid-heddle loom. The useful "tech support" section offers troubleshooting suggestions for common mistakes. Knitters Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Knitting Book Clear, well organized, and full of photos and illustrations, this book has taken more knitters from scarves to sweaters than any other, with basics on everything from individual stitches to garment design. Principles of Knitting by June Hemmons Hiatt For the knitter who wants to understand the mechanics behind every technique, this reference book dives deeply into the hows and whys of every knitting topic. Crocheters How to Crochet by Sara Delaney Small, affordable, and exactly right for getting started. The Crocheter's Skill-Building Workshop by Dora Ohrenstein Once you're past the basic stitches, this book teaches you construction, shaping, texture, and other intermediate and advanced topics. Spinners The Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs by Sarah Anderson Friendly, comprehensive instructions for yarns from simple plied yarns to complex layers of twist and grist. Don't be fooled by the textured yarns on the cover—this is not just for art-yarn spinners; Anderson's studies on durability and suggestions for use make this a must-have for any spinner. The Fleece & Fiber Sourcebook by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius The Field Guide to Fleece by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius Not just for spinners, these fiber resources—the one always on your bookshelf and the smaller version you take to a festival—include details about the sources, traits, and uses of more animal fibers than you ever knew existed.

In this episode, Greg Peterson sits down with DePhane Weaver, founding president of the Garden Exchange Stands organization, to explore how neighborhood seed and plant sharing can strengthen local food systems and reconnect communities. Inspired by family traditions of gardening and generosity, DePhane shares how a simple neighborhood exchange evolved into a nonprofit network with hundreds of garden stands across Arizona and beyond. The conversation dives into food sovereignty, community resilience, pollinator support, permaculture principles, and the joy of sharing seeds, plants, tools, and gardening knowledge. DePhane explains how Garden Exchange Stands helps neighbors connect through a global interactive map and volunteer-driven community network. This episode is a powerful reminder that growing food is about more than harvests — it's about relationships, local resilience, and creating spaces where people can give, learn, and belong.Our Guest: DePhane is the founding president of the Garden Exchange stands organization, inspired by family tradition of gardening and community service to FE champions, seed and plant sharings as a timeless way to connect neighbors, support wildlife and grow local food. Through a global map of exchange stands, the organization helps communities build gardens and a food sovereignty network.Key TopicsGarden Exchange Stands nonprofitCommunity-based seed and plant sharingFood sovereignty and local food systemsNeighborhood garden exchange networksPollinator-friendly gardeningPermaculture-inspired community designSeed saving and seed stewardshipFree garden exchange stands and seed librariesBuilding resilient neighborhood communitiesGardening as a tool for connectionVolunteer-driven nonprofit organizingSharing herbs, cuttings, tools, and garden suppliesInteractive global garden stand mappingSustainable living and wildlife habitat gardeningKey Questions AnsweredWhat is a Garden Exchange Stand?A Garden Exchange Stand is a neighborhood sharing station where people exchange seeds, plants, herbs, gardening tools, books, and other garden-related items for free. Some are permanent outdoor structures while others are portable or seasonal.How did Garden Exchange Stands begin?The project started organically when DePhane hosted seed and plant exchanges at her home. Leftover plants and supplies were placed near a neighborhood bench for others to take, eventually evolving into a larger community-driven nonprofit network.Why are garden exchange networks important?They strengthen local communities, encourage food production, reduce waste, support pollinators, and create opportunities for neighbors to connect through gardening and shared resources.How do people find exchange stands?Garden Exchange Stands uses an interactive online map where users can search by city, stand name, or location to find participating stands and seed-sharing sites.What kinds of items are exchanged?Participants share seeds, seedlings, herbs, cuttings, tools, gardening books, shade cloth, baskets, aprons, painted rocks, and seasonal harvests.Can people participate even if they live in an HOA?Yes. Many participants create small movable stands or seed libraries that fit HOA guidelines while still serving their local community.How does the organization support community resilience?The network encourages local food production, seed saving, pollinator habitat creation, and community cooperation — all key components of resilient local food systems.What role do volunteers play in the organization?The entire network is volunteer-powered. Volunteers help moderate groups, maintain stands, move plants between locations, host events, and support educational workshops.Why are herbs recommended for beginner gardeners?Herbs are inexpensive to grow, easy to maintain, highly productive, and useful for cooking and wellness. DePhane especially recommends rosemary and basil for beginners.What larger mission drives the organization?The mission centers on reconnecting people through gardening, sharing abundance, supporting wildlife, and rebuilding a culture of local food production and neighbor-to-neighbor generosity.Episode HighlightsDePhane shares how her family's gardening traditions inspired the creation of Garden Exchange Stands.The organization now supports hundreds of exchange locations throughout Arizona and additional stands across the United States.Garden stands operate similarly to Little Free Libraries, but for seeds, plants, and gardening supplies.Community members help maintain stands by watering plants, tidying displays, and redistributing excess supplies.The nonprofit promotes pollinator habitats alongside food production and seed saving.A Mother Earth News feature helped expand awareness of the movement into other states.Volunteers regularly transport plants and cuttings between cities to support gardeners across the region.DePhane explains how gardening creates lasting emotional connections between neighbors and communities.ResourcesGarden Exchange StandsArizona Garden Exchange Stands Facebook GroupSeed Library NetworkBook Recommendation — The Complete Book of Herbs by Leslie BremnessVisit www.urbanfarm.org/GardenExhangeStands for the show notes on this episode, and access to our full podcast library!

Good morning! Let's find the still point in the turning world. Today is Day 6 of our 7-Day Cortisol Reset, and we are layering our techniques together to create a "Somatic Symphony." We're moving from individual tools into a state of total, unbreakable balance.

A Little Message for Your Heart "My dear friend, I know what it's like to feel like you're being pulled in a thousand directions at once. I know the weight of being the one everyone looks to for answers. But today, I want to remind you that you don't have to choose between your strength and your peace. You can be a powerful business owner and a grounded soul. You can be a caregiver and a protected sanctuary. You don't have to be 'on' to be effective. In fact, you are at your most brilliant when you are at your most balanced. Today, as you weave these tools together, I want you to feel the relief of coming back into one piece. You are not a collection of 'to-dos'; you are a whole, beautiful, and balanced human being. You've done the work—now, just enjoy the harmony."
