BREAKING BAD - Podcast
Bad Bunny's history-making feast of music, dance, imagery, and elation felt a little like resistance, but more like insistence...a euphoric refusal to accept all the darkness, the divisiveness, the hate, and the oppression, and a persistent assertion of the power of love and goodness.And, because I spent part of my childhood in Puerto Rico, I realized that my early experiences there are part of why I am who I am today.This podcast features two of my original songs: RIVER OF LIFE ©2026, and OH, WE WILL ALL BE THERE ©2025 by Sandi Ault Ge...

WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE - Podcast
A story from my wildland firefighting adventures compares the state of our nation today with the dangers of a complex fire.When firefighters respond to a wildfire, they don't think about the odds. They employ their skills and devotion to do what they can; they work together to create and hold the line, and they don't quit until the fire is out. Neither should we. Are we going to be too slow, too scared, or too intimidated to defend our democracy?I don't think so. I still have my boots and my helmet, and I still remember...

As the 2nd largest (and one of the most beautiful) cities in the country burns in a catastrophic result of decades of client denial, we can all see apocalyptic signs around us. An ex-president who was an exceedingly decent man dies just as an exceedingly indecent one prepares to rule, along with an plethora of billionaires who openly plot imperialism and discuss how they will divide the earth up among the oligarchs.
