Out of Your Mind - The Nature of Consciousness - Part 1
Watts lectures on our image of the world, the myth of the ceramic construct, and the myth of the automatic universe. He provides a view of a wiggly world, and a game that's worth the candle, looks at an independent system, asks, "Whose game is it?" and considers the world as a drama

Sounds True with Tami Simon
How to Have Kids and a Life
Ericka Sóuter has over 20 years of journalism experience and is a nationally recognized voice in parenting news and parenting advice. A frequent contributor on Good Morning America and other national broadcast outlets, she regularly speaks on the issues, trends, and controversies that are most affecting parents and new families today. With Sounds True, Ericka has written a book called How to Have a Kid and a Life: A Survival Guide.
In this archival episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon speaks with Ericka about what it means to be a parent today. They discuss why more and more parents are opening up about not just the joys but also the challenges of raising children—and how our definition of “good parenting” is changing as a result. Ericka brings realism and humor to this enlightening conversation, helping parents navigate the expectations versus the realities of parenthood as they tend to their own happiness. “Love is innate,” Ericka shares. “Parenting skills are not.”

Visionary Activist Caroline Casey
Good Medicine And Rewilding
Caroline welcomes Seán Pádraig O’Donoghue (encore encore) with his ally, Jesse Wolf Hardin, conjurer of the Good Medicine Confluence, who writes: “I came to herbs through my early organizing of Earth First and work with animists from Terry Tempest and Metzner to Oberon Zell, and the rants that herbalists bear from me now are like those given in front of forest service headquarters and at bedazzled pagan gatherings. The world/civilization has never been closer to self destructive madness than now, culture never so diluted and commercialized, and damn, few destroyers truly enjoying themselves in the process. Herbalism is just one language for the crucial call to come back to wild self, healing mission, beauty and pleasure. You are clearly an agent of the same, with a not dissimilar dialect.”
Jesse Wolf Hardin is an influential author, ecosopher, ecological and societal activist, personal counsel, graphic artist, musician, and historian – a champion of both human and bio diversity, as well as of nature’s medicines. Wolf was a leading organizer of and presenter for Earth First!, becoming a featured presenter at hundreds of conferences and universities, and was the creator of cross cultural ecospiritual collaborations appropriately called “Medicine Shows” that melded his powerful spoken word with live music, indigenous presenters, and focused activism. He cofounded the international Good Medicine Confluence gathering in 2008, along with the in-depth digital magazine for herbalists, healers and folklorists Plant Healer Quarterly. He is the author of over 800 published articles in over 200 different publications, as well as of over 25 books.

Prior to becoming an herbalist, Seán was a political organizer in movements for peace, human rights, and global economic justice, and a freelance journalist documenting the human and ecological impacts of U.S. policies in Latin America.

Timbisha - Ash Meadows
Following the fast track development of Thacker Pass for lithium mining, and the abrogation of various laws like Section 106 of the National Historic Places Act, NAGPRA, NEPA, and others, the continuing pressure on Oak Flat and mixed interpretation of laws there, and the unknown unknowns of the Salton Sea lithium/geothermal extraction, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Department of the Interior (DOI), and the Biden Administration are on a roll.
Next targeted is Ash Meadows, a lush oasis and "biodiversity hotspot" where Rover Metals, a Canadian company, would like to dig 30 some-odd bore-holes just over the fence-line from the springs, and the famed pupfish, and other endangered species of the National Wildlife Refuge.

Old Radio - First Monday of the Month
O Henry's The Cisco Kid
Three episodes from 1952 featuring the Mexican "Robin Hood of the Old West" with his sidekick, Pancho. Each ends with their classic laugh, "Oh, Pancho! O, Cisco! Ha ha ha ha ha!" The Cisco Kid later made the transition to TV and appeared in comic books during the 50s as well, borrowing elements from The Lone Ranger and Zorro, though neither Pancho nor Cisco wore a mask. Despite the somewhat stereotypical accents, the two Mexican range riders are portrayed as heroic free-lance upholders of justice.
In the third episode we will listen to, Pancho is targeted for a lynching. Despite the light-hearted nature of the goings-on in the end, as "all's well that ends well", this reflected a widespread reality in the US southwest territories, later states, that were captured from Mexico -- resisters to the US conquest and occupation were portrayed as bandits, and lynchings and hangings of Mexicanos or Chicanos, while not as numerous as those against Black people in the post-Reconstruction South, were a not-uncommon occurrence in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, to control and terrorize the Indigenous Spanish-speaking population.

Dr. Horne shares his own experiences in fighting apartheid in South Africa back in the 80s and how similar but amplified tactics are at play today in the fight against apartheid Israel.
Later in the show, geographer Dr. Austin Kocher joins the show to discuss his work in tracking the relationship of space, power, and the state vis a vis immigration. Dr. Kocher shares insight into the research institute TRAC which uses FOIA requests to gain access to supposedly public record on immigration statistics, the morbid efficacy of digital detention and border control, and more.
