Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in mid-May of 2025, today's show begins with the mystical, mysterious “Misty Love”, a careening rocker with fine work from the ensemble on congas, ukulele and piano and “Woody On The Roof” is a charming folk ballad about the woodpecker on Mariam's roof. “Calling In The Ones” is a reverent, evocative minor ballad that grows into a rich, soul-influence workout with gorgeous Native flute passages and rich piano and “Calling In The Girls” is a rollicking, ancient-sounding fundamental folk ballad about the frogs in the spring pond shot through with the energy of Mariam's dancing dulcimer and vocal. “Full Moon Part Two” is a beautiful, strange moon song replete with lunar chords and Mariam's expressive vocal and “Old Friends” is a pretty, driving folk song with another fine vocal from Mariam and galloping Native drum from Craig. “To The Vision” is fantastical, imaginative, compelling rock song, the fine ensemble work featuring Native drum, exploratory piano and soaring Native flute setting the stage for Mariam's powerful, narrative lyric. We close today with two covers from Mariam's albums, the first a spirited, tight take of “I'm The Full Moon” from the “Gaea Star Goddesses” LP and the gorgeous lullaby “Night Is Near” from the “For The Children” LP.

The agricultural equipment market is experiencing a remarkable recovery in 2025, defying early predictions and showcasing surprising strength across multiple categories. This episode of America's Land Auctioneer dives deep into these market dynamics with Chris Bair, Regional Manager at Pifer's Worthington-Sioux falls office, who shares firsthand insights from recent highly successful auctions.Bair reveals how their March auction became "the strongest sale in almost five years," setting the stage for a robust spring season. The conversation explores the fascinating phenomenon of pre-COVID equipment commanding premium prices, with examples like a 2012 John Deere 4830 sprayer recently fetching $171,000—breaking a three-year price ceiling. Meanwhile, newer equipment faces accelerated depreciation of $1,000-1,500 per hour, creating a market environment where quality used machinery has become increasingly attractive to buyers calculating operational costs.The heart of the discussion focuses on auction methodologies and how Pifer's has evolved to maximize returns for sellers while maintaining their commitment to the live auction experience. Despite technological advances, over 50% of auction value still comes from on-site buyers, and research indicates roughly 16% of American farms lack internet access altogether. This reality has shaped Pifer's hybrid approach—combining the energy and momentum of live auctions with sophisticated online bidding platforms that together engage up to 1,400 bidders per event.Particularly fascinating is the company's strategic pivot from timed online-only auctions to "live online" formats that allow equipment to remain at owners' locations while still benefiting from live auctioneer engagement and multiple bidding platforms. As Bair eloquently states, "Technology should never replace the auctioneer. Technology should always complement the auctioneer."The episode concludes with previews of upcoming auctions, including the May 13th Summer Equipment Auction in Worthington featuring construction equipment, vehicles, and recreational items, along with several farm retirement auctions throughout the Upper Midwest. Whether you're looking to buy or sell agricultural equipment, this episode provides valuable market intelligence and strategic insights that could significantly impact your next auction experience.Follow at www.americalandauctioneer.com and on Instagram & FacebookContact the team at Pifer's

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #618 is an hour of intrepid, dynamic, visionary acoustic improvised music played by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, 4- and 8-string ukulele, shruti box, Native flute, nylon-string and steel string guitars, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on congas and Native drum. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in late April of 2025, today's show begins with the languid, relaxed folk of “Let's all Wander”, a pretty song propelled by Mariam's nylon string guitar “Leonardo” and moves into the upbeat rock of “Fire”, a driving jam with a fine vocal from Mariam and inspired, fluid piano from Bob. “Sail Away Into Your Dreamtime” is a lovely, meditative, sprawling piece underpinned by Mariam's sighing shruti box and Craig's fundamental, heartbeat Native drum with a distinctive classical theme from Bob and “Calling For An Awakening” is a beautiful, softly flowing piece fluid, watery piano and a lush, flowing vocal from Mariam. “Almighty Standing Ones of Peace” is an evocative minor blues filled with distinctive touches from the ensemble and “Arise” is a cut from Mariam's “Release” LP, rendered here with a beautiful, languid mood defined by Mariam's dancing 8-string ukulele and Craig's steadily grooving congas. “Smile” was originally rendered as a raga in its first form on Mariam's “For The Children” album and is explored at length here as a driving forest adventure song with Native flute and piano braided in a compelling, extended game of musical tag. “Let's Rise Ever Higher” appears as a coda to “Smile” and completes today's show with a beautiful vocal from Mariam and diversions into bossa nova and jazz.

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #617 is an hour of dynamic visionary acoustic improvised music made by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, singing bowl, Native flute, 4- and 8-string ukulele, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on congas and Native drum. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in April 2025, today's show eases in on the wave of low, heartbeat drum, crystal bowl and soaring Native flute that is “Silver Rays In The Night”, an affectingly fundamental song with a poetic lyric from Mariam punctuated by percussive Native flute. “To The Mystery Of The Starry Night” is a languid, gently propulsive folk number with beautiful 8-string ukulele, triumphant gospel piano and a fine vocal from Mariam and “Mandavina The Moose” is a gorgeous, psychedelic forest story with the ensemble turning in a nuanced and deeply affecting performance that journeys languidly through alternately lush and alien musical landscapes. “Sail On” is a beautiful waltz from the “Release” LP and receives a relaxed, emotional rendition with a fine vocal from Mariam. “Summer Around The Bend” has a beautifully relaxed air with the interaction of Mariam's ukulele, Craig's steady conga work and Bob's circular, repetitive piano motif. A signature Native flute fanfare from Mariam ushers in the emotional “Filling Each Others' Hearts”, a lovely, rich, unhurried ballad that ranges through various moods before settling into the “Romance” theme from Prokofiev's “Lieutenant Kije” suite to close today's session.

Chris and Cristina chat with Dr. Ian Wallace, an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of New Mexico, where he is the director of the Human Physical Activity Lab. As an Evolutionary Anthropologist, Ian's work focuses on how humans evolved to use their bodies and explores the costs and benefits of modern physical activity patterns for our health. He is particularly interested in populations transitioning from non-industrial to industrial and post-industrial contexts. Ian earned his Ph.D. in Anthropology in 2013 from Stony Brook University, where his dissertation examined how physical activity and genetics determine limb bone structure. Following graduate school and an initial postdoctoral position at Stony Brook, he completed his postdoctoral training in the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard and started his own lab at UNM. There, he focuses on measures of locomotor biomechanics and their ties to the health and function of the musculoskeletal system. Recently, his fieldwork has focused on the Indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia. In particular, he is interested in how their lifestyles are changing with the rapid expansion of industries, the market economy, and urban areas across Malaysia, as well as how these changes affect their health and risk of disease. ------------------------------ Find the papers discussed in this episode: Wallace, I.

Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in mid-April of 2025, today's show begins with the somber, meditative “Let's Go Down Deep” that features dramatic piano and a lovely duet between Mariam's soaring vocal and Native flute. “One Door Closes” is a pretty, upbeat folk song led by Mariam's dancing vocal and chiming 8-string ukulele that seeks to make sense of the country's current climate in a hopeful and uplifting way and Mariam gently strums her whispering acoustic guitar for the gorgeous, widescreen “Let's Unravel”, an expansive ballad with languid piano and steady congas. The dramatic, powerful “May We Walk Along The River” features another fine, soaring vocal and driving work from the ensemble and “Full Moon Part Two”, an iconic piece featured on the Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour's “Best Of” compilation from 2013 is a mysterious moon song with a mystical lyric from Mariam and Gershwinesque piano figurations from Bob. The sprawling, anthemic “Sing At Sunrise” grows out of clouds of Mariam's Celtic harp and sweeping piano into a jazzy, abstract exploration supported by Craig's foundational heartbeat Native drum and a blues-adjacent piano structure from Bob supporting Mariam's fine vocal and harmonica work and we complete today's show with the skipping, bittersweet “May We All Just Relax”, a pretty folk song with chiming 8-string ukulele setting the stage for Mariam's wise and inspiring lyric.

Recorded live in late March of 2025 at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, today's show begins with the beautiful, meditative “Magenta Golden Rose” a languid, rich song with fine vocals and Native flute, throbbing Native drum and imaginative piano. “The Mists Are Rising” is a fast-paced nature travelogue driven by Mariam's chiming acoustic guitar and Craig's driving congas and “Morning, Morning” is a pretty folk song with a fine vocal from Mariam above energized piano and congas. “The Last Time” begins with peaceful, dancing ukulele and Mariam's pretty melody and adds gospel, folk and rock touches as it grows into a powerful, dramatic prayer of peace and “Let's Begin Again” grows beautifully, mystically from the embers of the preceding song into a rich, powerful raga supporting a languid Native flute and vocal ballet from Mariam. “Spirit Of The Forest”, originally recorded for the “Release” album, is given a stately, unhurried reading featuring tight conga work and a soaring, affection vocal from Mariam. Today's hour closes with “Returning Back Home”, a meditative, mesmerizing raga underpinned by Mariam's shruti box drone and enriched by imaginative piano directions and Native drum accents and rolls.

Today, Dom Giordano, filling in on the Dawn Stensland Show, leads off by offering up his thoughts on Liberation Day and the retaliatory tariffs announced by the Trump administration, noting his concern over the impact on inflation, particularly in the auto industry. Giordano offers up countering opinions, noting why he hopes Trump is preparing for the potential negativity that may come with this move. Then, Dom launches his side question, and tells Producer Dan, noted Springsteen-hater, that Bruce ‘found' 7 lost albums, which Dan refuses to believe. At 11, Dom welcomes in Josue Sierra of the PA Family Institute to offer an update on the story of Rusty Trubey, a veteran chaplain at the Coatesville VA Medical Center, who asked U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins to take immediate action to eliminate a speech code being imposed by the VA and ensure that Chaplain Trubey and his colleagues may preach at their respective hospitals according to the dictates of their conscience. This comes after Trubey was punished and investigated for preaching from Romans 1 during a VA chapel service. Then, at 11:30, Dom welcomes Jim Worthington, owner of the Newtown Athletic Club, back onto the show to hear about a new initiative he's involved with, telling us about his work with black leaders across the country on initiatives proposed by President Trump that would improve the lives of black Americans. Worthington tells Dom that he'll be traveling to Washington next week in effort to lobby members of Congress to become involved in this outreach campaign.
