Ologies with Alie Ward - 5th Anniversary Special! Xylology (LUMBER) with Jeff Perry

What’s the customary 5th Anniversary gift? Apparently… WOOD! So we wrangled our favorite sawmill owner/operator of LA’s Angel City Lumber, Jeff Perry – who rescues downed street trees from the chipper and turns them into beautiful planks, boards, stumps and chonks. We cover everything from forest management to 2x4s, wood grain, burls, bog logs, sawdust, tree disease, asparagus tips, salvaged lumber, kiln drying, Westward expansion, Indigenous forest management, cedar whiff, and how working with wood changes your relationship to death.

Consider This from NPR - Migration Is Shifting. Who Is Crossing Where?

The past twelve months have been the deadliest on record for the migrants crossing the Southern U.S. Border from Mexico. More than 800 have died in the last fiscal year.

This past year also saw a shift in migration. More and more are coming from Nicaragua, Cuba and Venezuela. Past entry points have given way to more remote locations on the border, like Eagle Pass and Del Rio, Texas.

These were sleepy border towns, now they are some of the busiest junctions on the border.

Who is arriving and what happens when they get there?NPR's Marisa Peñaloza and Joel Rose report.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
