Description

The Deadly Uncle Podcast was created as a safe space to connect Indigenous men and boys to their culture and communities. Join Curt Young and Trent Agecoutay as they talk to "Deadly Uncles" in the Indigenous Community.

Each podcast promotes belonging and social inclusion to support the physical and mental wellbeing of Indigenous men and boys. With the support of the Edmonton Arts Council, we have successfully interviewed 20 “Deadly Uncles” and in episode 14 Curt and Trent sit down with Teddy Manywounds.

Teddy Manywounds is a two-spirited person from the Tsuut’ina Nation. He attended Mount Royal University in Calgary and his studies lead him to New York City, where he graduated from Parson’s the New School For Design. He spent most of his adult life in New York City, until he returned home and started working for the Tsuut’ina Nation.

Teddy currently holds the position of Director of Justice for G4 SNTTC. They strive to provide safe, respectful, equitable, and responsible spaces for our women and girls. Through sharing circles and moments of healing they want to elevate our voices though engagement in a matter that recognize our traditional practices.
