DAYS OF OUR GRINDS
In the ’70s there were very shallow pockets of skateboarders spread across the vast Great Northwest. These interviews tell about struggles and achievements from those who fought hard for it when no one else cared - personal histories of true friendships, love, debauchery, blood and guts, addiction, and death. No "pro deals" here... just the hard-edged hard-earned moments that it took to build Northwest skateboarding’s under-appreciated, misunderstood, wild and entertaining past… to its colorful present… and powerful future. Dedicated to all the pioneers and unsung patriots of Northwest Skateboarding. Interviews by Tim Hayes. Music by Tom Simpson

BETTER EYESIGHT PODCAST
Dr. William H. Bates, the holistic ophthalmologist who pioneered the field of natural vision improvement, published a monthly magazine called Better Eyesight Magazine from July 1919 to June 1930. Now, a century later, a group of natural vision educators and Bates Method teachers are creating the Better Eyesight Podcast, which is a monthly podcast that reads the entire Better Eyesight Magazine edition from exactly 100 years ago to the month, while also providing expert commentary on the material. Instead of having to read all 11 years worth of magazine articles yourself, we're going to read them out loud for you! That way, you can close and rest your eyes or do some other vision enhancing practices while you listen and learn. Nathan Oxenfeld and Esther Joy Van Der Werf will be your two main co-hosts, but you'll also be hearing from dozens of other natural vision educators from all over the world to get a range of explanations of Dr. Bates' powerful principles and practices. You can support the show by becoming a Patreon supporter at https://patreon.com/bettereyesight There are varying levels of involvement ranging from becoming a Better Eyesight Listener where you get access to the full audio recording of the magazine, to becoming a Better Eyesight League Member where you get access to monthly group discussions online with other visionaries, all the way to becoming a Better Eyesight Student where you get to work directly one-on-one with a Certified Bates Method Teacher either online or locally in your area. This eleven year vision quest will not only teach you more about Dr. William Bates, his lasting legacy, and the incredibly transformational method he developed, but it will also provide you with professional commentary and modern-day explanations that will help take your natural vision improvement experience to the next level. Just imagine how much better your vision could be by June 2030!
THE AMERICAN STORY
Every generation of Americans has been faced with the same question: how should we live? Our endlessly interesting answers have created The American Story. The weekly episodes published here stretch from battlefields and patriot graves to back roads, school yards, bar stools, city halls, blues joints, summer afternoons, old neighborhoods, ball parks, and deserted beaches—everywhere you find Americans being and becoming American. They are true stories about what it is that makes America beautiful, what it is that makes America good and therefore worthy of love. Each episode aims in some small way to awaken the better angels of our nature, to welcome us into and encourage us to enrich the great American story.
