In part two of our deep dive into the piñon tree, Ty finds evidence that piñons are responsible for more death, exploitation and murder than any other New Mexico tree.

Ever had unshelled piñon nuts? Tough little buggers. Fannie Spitz thought so , too, so she invented the first pine nut shelling machine in the United States.

Ty gives a sneak-peak of his new book, Nuclear Family, with a story about the first known civilians to be exposed to nuclear fallout. Check out and pre-order Ty's book here! https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Nuclear-Family/Ty-Bannerman/9780826369024

We take another trip to the center of Mike Smith's FILE CABINET OF MYSTERY. We're not out of ideas, YOU'RE OUT OF IDEAS!

Once upon a time in Albuquerque, a woman used a golden key to open the front door of the House Beautiful.

Where is the center of the universe? Why, right here on UNM's central campus.

We thought it was gone forever, but somehow this long-lost episode has resurfaced. Behold! A piece of CoE LOST MEDIA.

Today we’re going to be addressing a controversial topic, perhaps one of the most controversial topics: Abortion in our city. To be very clear, we here at CoE are 100% pro-choice and the show today is not a debate about the merits of this necessary medical procedure. Instead, we will be discussing the life experience of an abortion provider who lived and worked here in Albuquerque until her untimely death in 2022.

Beyond that, this is a topic that goes hand in hand with other content that may be disturbing for listeners, including sexual assault, institutional racism and political violence. Although we will touch on those subjects, there will be no graphic descriptions of them or any medical procedures in this episode. Still, please listen or don’t listen at your own discretion.

Dr. Carmen Landau’s book Un/Harmed is now available for purchase via the website https://www.raisedtype.com/carmens-book.html or through Barnes and Noble’s online store.

We welcome special guests Cody Polston and Jesse Herron to discuss Albuquerque's historic dens of iniquity and vice. Recorded live at the Painted Lady Bed and Brew!

We chat with Alheli Caton-Garcia and Amanda Galleogos from the Southwest Organizing Project, an Albuquerque nonprofit devoted to racial and gender equality and social and economic justice for over 40 years.
