Today on the Fabulous 413, we head to Greenfield to see an incredible relic that city is housing. Turns out it is in possession of a 160 year old stagecoach, which itself is at the root of some mystery. We meet with city council and historical society member Sarah Bolduc to see the sight for ourselves, hear some of the history they’ve been able to unravel about the vehicle and how you can help revive it to its former glory. 

We also dig into the super fun pages of the debut novel from Easthampton author M.J. Beasi. I Was a Teenage Death God is not just about a young trans teen’s heightening circumstances, but an incredible metaphor for young adult and non binary experience across its many adventures and western Mass. setting. We speak with the author about their journey to writing, and more before you can meet them at the very first appearance on their book tour tomorrow March 3rd at the Easthampton Public Library. 

And Mr. Universe, Kainaat Studios and Hampshire College’s Salman Hameed is as concerned and exhausted by our country’s military actions over the weekend as you might also be, and so we explore some science based ways to gain some hope about the bigger picture that may help.
