A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World: Tales of Fire, Wind, and Water, is the newest book from nature writer and New York Times bestselling author David Gessner. His daughter, Hadley, is an undergraduate at New York University. They join us to explore what climate science tells us about the prospect of a hotter, drier, more storm-prone, less livable planet by 2063, the year she turns 60.

Beyond Miyazaki's World is the sequel to the previous podcast known as Into Miyazaki's World hosted by Betty and Avery. In this season 2 production, the pair will move beyond Hayao Miyazaki's movies to explore more Studio Ghibli films produced by different directors, such as Isao Takahata, Goro Miyazaki, and more. This premiere episode tackles the debut film of the studio co-founder's son, Goro Miyazaki, called Tales from Earthsea. The film was based on the book of the same name written by Ursula K. Le Guine. The duo discuss the major themes of the movie, including identity, the metaphor of the shadow, and life and death. They also share their opinions regarding the plot and Goro's style of storytelling. Tales from Earthsea is known as one of the worst Studio Ghibli movies, but is it really that bad? Listen to this episode to find out!

In this episode I have a not so ordinary conversation about climate with best selling author David Gessner and we invite you to think about how to talk through what climate change really means from a new point of view, one that connects us instead of divides us. David Gessner has written many books but we are talking about his latest one:  A Traveller's Guide to the End of the World: Tales of Fire Wind and Water You can follow David on Twitter @DavidGessner and on Instagram @davidmgessner If you are digging the show subscribe and share it so others can enjoy it too.

The very first bill that Speaker Mike Johnson passed through the House would gut many energy and climate projects financed by the Inflation Reduction Act, even though Republican states are massively benefiting from this funding. The repeal would also block environmental justice efforts and deny a “just transition” for disadvantaged communities.  Also, even if the world's nations soon come together to keep temperatures from rising beyond 1.5 degrees, we face a troubling and uncertain future. David Gessner's 2023 book A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World: Tales of Fire, Wind, and Water grapples with a complicated relationship with hope amid a warming world. And a lifeboat is offered to the tiny island nation of Tuvalu, which faces inundation from rising seas. A new treaty would allow a limited number of its citizens to study, work or live in Australia under a climate-related visa program with geopolitical implications. -- As a non-profit media organization we could not produce high-quality journalism that educates and inspires you to be fully informed about climate change and environmental issues without your help.

David Gessner is no stranger to Mountain & Prairie listeners– he's joined me for many episodes and is the author of many of my favorite books, including "All the Wild That Remains," "Leave It As It Is," "My Green Manifesto," and more. His newest book is "A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World: Tales of Fire, Wind, and Water," which once again showcases David's unique ability to combine humor, travel, and memoir in service of connecting the reader with the natural world. - "A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World" chronicles David's journeys around the country, where he finds himself in the middle of an unsettling number of climate disasters– from historic forest fires in the American West to hurricanes on North Carolina's Outer Banks. Eschewing the ubiquitous facts, figures, and policy debates that often dominate climate-focused books, David does what he does best: he tells stories. Specifically, he tells impactful, insightful stories from the front lines of the climate crisis– stories that will stick with the reader for years to come. - As has been our tradition for several years now, David and I met up in Boulder, Colorado, where he and his family visit each summer. We obviously talk a lot about the book, but as is the case whenever we get together, the conversation flows into many fun and unexpected topics. You can check out the episode notes for a full list of everything we discussed, but some of the topics include: David's recent writing workshop at the Zapata Ranch with his friend, author Craig Childs, the importance of momentum and dailiness in writing, how David's daughter was the influence for the new book, optimism vs. pessimism when reporting current events, thoughts on death and loss, David's good friend, the late Mark Spitzer, the next generation of conservation-minded writers, some book recommendations, the idea of being a “polygamist of place,” and much more. - I'm always happy to have the opportunity to sit down with David for a conversation, so I greatly appreciate his carving out the time. I hope you can check out "A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World," and I hope you enjoy this episode. --- A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World by David Gessner David Gessner Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/david-gessner-4/ Support Mountain & Prairie Sign up for Ed's Book Recommendations --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 3:15 - David's Zapata Ranch retreat 6:45 - Discussing the power of “dailiness” 7:45 - Whether or not teaching helped in David's practice of writing 9:00 - How many books David has written in the past 18 months 10:30 - How David knows when an idea becomes a book in his mind 16:45 - David's goal for "A Traveler's Guide to the End of the World," including how he balanced stories with statistics and humor with the weight of the subject 20:45 - Evaluating how the news of the West is reported 27:45 - What David means when he identifies as a “polygamist of place” 33:15 - David's relationship with Mark Spitzer 39:30 - How David feels about entering a stage in life where his friends are beginning to pass away 43:45 - Discussing David's daughter, climate change, and how they figure into "A Traveler's Guide" 50:30 - David discusses the various tools he would like to use to face climate change 52:45 - Who David thinks will continue the work of the Doug Peacocks of the world 56:45 - Discussing the political alignment affiliated with climate change work 1:01:30 - David's book recommendations ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts  

Well, would you look at that... It's another podcast.

Welcome to the Idries Shah Foundation podcast, practical psychology for today. This weekly podcast features selections from Idries Shah books, as well as original recordings. It has been made available by The Idries Shah Foundation, and is voiced by David Ault. This episode features a selection of World Tales, by Idries Shah. How can it be that the same story is found in Scotland and also in Pre-Columbian America? What can account for the durability and persistence of tales? Was the tale of Aladdin and his wondrous lamp really taken from Wales (where it has been found) to the ancient East and, if so, when and by whom? These questions and more are answered in Idries Shah's remarkable volume World Tales, which is subtitled, ‘The extraordinary coincidence of stories told in all times, in all places'. In his introduction, Shah remarks, ‘Working for thirty-five years among the written and oral sources of our world heritage in tales, one feels a truly living element in them which is startlingly evident when one isolates the "basic" stories; the ones which tend to have travelled farthest, to have featured in the largest number of classical collections, to have inspired great writers of the past and present.'

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we've been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. From The Odyssey to Finding Nemo, many of the stories we most love are about journeys. Journeys that take us to new places, either physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Journeys are great for finding new friends and new enemies. They take us all around the world, yet somehow we always end up back home again. Today's episode is a wild adventure, full of everything from biblical stories humorously brought into the present to language barriers providing comical mix-ups. There'll be races, songs, and stories from far far away. Embark with us on a storytelling journey today on The Apple Seed. On today's episode, enjoy the following: "Moses of the Mountains" by Adam Booth from The Mingo Black (1:36) Radio Family Journal: "Long Drives" by Sam Payne (12:44) "Paca and Beetle" by Heather Forest from World Tales of Wisdom and Wonder (19:09) The Daily Mix: "Bearskinner" with Paul Ricks (26:22) "Generous People: Birth of the Southern Order of Storytellers" by Betty Ann Wylie from Pass It On: A Storyteller's Journey (34:30) "A Story of Signs" by Ruth Halpern from She Set Out to Seek Her Fortune (42:02) "A Walk Around the Block" by Bill Harley from The Best Candy in the Whole World (50:50)

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we've been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. It doesn't matter where you're from or how you live your life, food has to be an integral part. As humans, we need energy, and we get it from all sorts of places. What's more, we tend to enjoy exciting foods. No one likes it to be bland or gross. Depending on the place, food tends to take on different personalities and characteristics. Food contains culture. It's only natural, then, that we have stories about food. We have just such stories today. You'll hear one about a rice ball, you'll hear another about magical ice cream. You'll even hear a story about dancing. Now, dancing certainly isn't food, but it definitely is another integral part of many cultures and what makes us human. On today's episode, enjoy the following: “Rice Balls” by Connie Regan-Blake from Dive Into Stories (2:49) Radio Family Journal: "Andes Mints" by Sam Payne (15:59) The Daily Mix: "Macs a la Mode" with Jenna Parker (20:13) “The Secret Garden” by the Acting Company (28:13) “The Dancing Lass of Anglesey” by Heather Forest from World Tales of Wisdom and Wonder (39:13) “The Magic Ice Cream Maker” by Priscilla Howe from The Ghost with the One Black Eye and Other Stories (45:45)

Being tricked can be a pleasant or an unpleasant experience. For example, have you ever had a surprise party thrown in your honor? That can be a pleasant trick. Or if someone tricks you into thinking you're not getting the birthday gift you want, but lo and behold, you did get it. That's also pleasant. But a lot of tricks can be unpleasant too. Maybe a monster plays dead and tricks you into coming near only to gobble you up. Or maybe someone asks to borrow money with no intention of ever paying you back. That's pretty nasty. Maybe someone bonks you on the head to escape the punishment for their crimes. All of these unpleasant tricks actually take place in today's episode. We're excited to bring you tales from Heather Forest, Alton Chung, and others. On today's episode, enjoy the following: “Azban and the Crayfish” by James Bruchac from Northeastern Native American Animal Stories (3:50) Radio Family Journal: "Frisbee with Grandpa" by Sam Payne (16:27) Daily Mix: “The Cat in the Hat” with Gene Nelson (22:26) “Drakestail” by Heather Forest from World Tales of Wisdom and Wonder (30:35) “Tanuki and Usagi” by Alton Chung from The Spider Weaver and Other Tales (38:26) “Big Big World” by Bill Harley from Play It Again (51:10)

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we've been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. There are so many great stories where beloved characters find themselves in a pickle. Sometimes they put themselves there, and other times they are put there by villains or evil stepmothers. The most fun part of these stories just might be watching the characters get themselves out of these troublesome situations. In today's stories, we'll get to listen as our protagonists get themselves out of trouble by tricking and outsmarting the villains. On today's episode, enjoy the following: “Baba Yaga” by Tim Lowry from Getting the Creeps (2:35) Radio Family Journal: "Basement Flood" by Sam Payne (15:57) The Daily Mix: "The Garden of Eden" with Noa Baum (22:01) “Fox's Sack” by Bill Harley from Come On Out & Play (30:56) “The Tiger, The Brahman, and The Jackal” by Heather Forest from World Tales of Wisdom and Wonder (46:55)

covering episodes 426-429, One Piece Film: Strong World, and the spin-off special Strong World Episode 0   1:53 Chatting with the Hosts   Black Clover – Kat really likes the mysterious fangy boy- whatever could this sexy character want?   We recommend you check out The Weekly Planet Podcast (also available on any podcatcher)- they cover comic books and movies- and the ocassional game as well.   Kat has been getting into cake decoration and baking, and recommends The Preppy Kitchen and The Icing Artist, but specifically the older videos- their new style isn't her favorite.   Joel continues to toil away on a giant ice generator in Minecraft. And if you want to join him, you could consider supporting The Full Spectrum on Patreon, whose rewards include access to their discord.   9:54 Main Episode   11:09 We Discuss episodes 426-429   The filler episodes are not our jam at all. Very dull. Boring villains, forgettable child character We also discuss the question of "Are all the arcs in One Piece the same?" and whether that is a valid criticism   20:29 We Discuss Strong World and Episode 0   Young Sengoku, Young Garp, Luffy in a suit- this movie and special have the drip! And we appreciate the walk scene, arguably our favorite in all of One Piece. We also take a moment to love and appreciate Ian Sinclair's voice work as Brook and his debut in a One Piece dubbing role. Lastly, we dive into the sexualization of the women in One Piece, mostly focused on the outfits of this movie.

It's Cherry Blossom Time! We've been spotting more of these colorful blossoms this spring, all over the country, than we have any other year. The custom of celebrating their appearance comes from Japan, so we bring you a Japanese story that is supposed to explain how the tradition got started. We're back in our old stomping grounds in Northern California, after a long and eventful drive from Arkansas, mostly on (sometimes muddy) backroads- including historic Route 66. Our adventures included horseback riding in Oklahoma, exploring the ruins of a 400-year-old mission in New Mexico, and stopping in the old mining town of Oatman, Arizona where wild burros roam the streets. And in Tehachapi, California, we visited Indian Point Ranch, a prime producer of ostriches, and fed some of Big Bird's distant cousins. Now we're having the last few performances of our current production, "World Tales", and getting ready for our next show. Happy Listening!Dennis (Kindly Man, Mean Man, Prince) and Kimberly (Narrator, Kindly Woman, Mean Woman, Dog) Act!vated Live on Stage this April: Catch the show in San Leandro, Riverbank, Belevedere-Tiburon and Fairfield in California.
