My friend Amy Walsh M.D., an emergency room doctor, joins me for blue-sky dreaming of what health care could be.

A conversation on restoration, reciprocity, and the art of being well.

A message from the land itself.

Juniper grass, mullein hills, rabbits taking notes on human absurdity.

Dark moonshine, saffron sunsets, an old stump humming.
