Broken Area episodes

  • Broken Area - Episode 41 - The Sleeping Giant
    We just got back from a great camping trip with some friends (Jeremy and Cheryl) up at Sleeping Giant Provincial Park near Thunder Bay.
    As they are listeners, and friends, we had to do a show. Hilarity ensued.
    I really think Jeremy and Cheryl ought to get their own show.

  • Broken Area - Episode 39 - Xingu is Not a Penguin
    Another summer evening, another podcast.
    Tonight we lit a bonfire in our backyard fire pit and started podcasting. As usual we talked about all kinds of stuff.
    I just got back from the Marshall McLuhan Podcast Roundtables, an un unconference, in Hamilton Ontario. I recorded an episode of the Marshall McLuhan Variety Hour and one of Best Episode Ever while I was there. This was done for the forest time, live in person with my two co hosts. Isabelle is quite fond of MMD.
    We then discussed loss and family and funerals. Sometimes people act like jerks, and they should not do that.
    Isabelle has been taking Portuguese lessons and she gave use a sample of it. It is a bit of an odd language. This lead her to talk about a movie she saw on Netflix called 'Xingu'. It is about the founding of the Zingu National Park in Brazil which is a reserve for nature and the native people who live there.
    We hope you like this one.

  • Broken Area - Episode 40 - Old Uncle Grundy
    So, we just came back from a trip to London where we visited the Advanced Facility for Avian Research, which is run by a couple of old friends of mine. We wanted to check it out, and Maddie did too, as she finds the work cool.
    Isabelle gave my Mom a painting and was surprised that my Mom wanted to hang it in her living room, well, more honoured really I guess.
    We camped on the way there and on the way back at Grundy Lake Provincial Park which is about half way between the Sault and London.
    We also talked some about our friend Alanna, to whom we dedicate this episode.

  • Broken Area - Episode 38 - Primeval
    So, we went on another camping trip and this time Madeleine came along. Before we started recording she said she wouldn't be contributing much, but then she did a lot. It is too bad she does not have her own podcast. Odd, as she is the only person in the family without one.....
    We talked about the evolution of our sense of beauty, about art, about camping, about other things too, but frankly I have forgotten.
    Oh we may have talked about stars and such, I am not sure......
    We hope you like the episode.
