Doing some soul searching, life living, heart listening, and lots of mundane work between. How this affects the podcast. (The sniffing may be from crying earlier or not maybe I was cutting onions). Thank you to all listeners. You all are the best. Life is good. *UPDATE: call-in at ending from good friend and listener: Luke!! Such a great message.

Reminders can either suck or are awesome. For Allison Austen the reminder by the door and the one in the mirror were ones she wished she could forget. But are reminders so bad? Even the ones that remind us about the times we would rather forget? Also, who doesn’t enjoy a good shoe-throwing and scissor happiness? ——— Song: “Lunis the Moon” by Ketsa.

Streak-free is an episode a little different than the normal description. Not exactly about a specific person, but rather about two non-specific people and a brown paper recycle bag. ----------------------- Songs: “Harmony” by Alan Špiljak.  To hear more of his music please check out: https://soundcloud.com/alanspiljak or to contact him: https://www.instagram.com/alan.spiljak/  Intro music: “Metro is Breathing” by Kosta T.

RONALD DAVIES

The hidden, unspoken language that was birthed before we invented languages. When we grunted and pointed, waved our arms and did not listen to podcasts. It’s a language we are birthed with. The language of the Inner. Jonas Edelman would think this is ridiculous, and you might too. ——— Song: “Western Shores” by Philipp Weigl.  To hear more of his music please check out: http://phweigl.wixsite.com/music-production-mp Intro music: “Metro is Breathing” by Kosta T.

JONAS EDELMAN

We, humans, have this need to label everything we come across. Maybe it’s evolutionary, instinctual, or taught, but it’s there. We see, label, and move on. Even, and especially, with our own self. Nora Long and her outward appearance had always been questioned, needing a label. But we, as she did, forget that we have a spark in each of our true self, and is not found in our image or life, but in the core of our being. Sometimes a just takes one thing for us to remember it again. ——— Song: “Sullen Faced” by Ketsa To hear more of his music please check out: http://ketsamusic.com// Intro music: “Metro is Breathing” by Kosta T.

NORA LONG

We all have moments in our lives that shape us, the way we think, believe, hope. Some big and epic moments, most small and seemly insignificant ones. But no matter, they hold our lives in their hands, and we must either accept that or reshape ourselves from them. This is Ian Sanders’ moment. ——— Songs: “Somber Heart” by Lee Rosever (licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0) To hear more of his music please check out: http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Lee_Rosevere/ Intro music: “Metro is Breathing” by Kosta T.

IAN SANDERS

Marcy’s walls were covered in posters of her favorite places, bands, movies, etc., but never did she think she would ever be on one herself. Especially this kind: a missing person one. But she’s not missing, really, she’s running for her life in a forest from creatures beyond her nightmares. She is not alone in this nightmare, because she’s not dreaming.

Few know it exists, but those that do are marked for life...if they get out. At a party floating in the pool, with something as harmless as a selfie to hopefully impress a girl, Eli Mark discovers its existence.

ELI MARK

June Jackson described through the eyes of her daughter, 8-year old Sophie. The point of view of a child can often overlook the hard, sad, frightening times. It’s only when we get older do we see passed the filter of love. Hopefully not always. ——— Music: “Free Tone Textures” by Small Colin.

LINCOLN GIEREK

For years Jolie Flores woke every morning before the sun rose to try to pray, but she never found the words, let alone a prayer. But for some reason, she kept trying. Maybe to be closer to God, or to understand her life, or to keep the memory of her nana alive one more day. ——— Music: "Sleepwalker II" by Sergey Cheremisinov.

WILLIAM EVANS

DESCRIBING PEOPLE peels back a person's mask, overlooks our judgments, and gives a glimpse into the reality and the fiction of what makes them who they are. Some call it a character sketch, but here it is just describing a person. This is a work of fiction. Or is it? Written and hosted by the writer Sarrah Kaliski. Bi-weekly show.
