May 15, 2022

Transcript So about a year ago I learned something new about myself. I began to suspect that I’m autistic. So I approached a psychologist, and we had some meetings, and I took some tests.

32. Kissed by a fox: From the audiobook coming soon!

April 16, 2022

Transcript So I thought I’d do something a little different today. I’m in the middle of a big project— recording my books and making them into audiobooks.

14. Everything is alive and we are all relatives

September 18, 2020

Transcript “Everything is alive, and we are all relatives.” The sentence showed up in an essay I read this week by a Native Hawaiian philosopher named Manulani Aluli Meyer.

13. Finding beauty in tough times

September 4, 2020

Transcript I think back to the early months after the 2016 election. Sleepless nights. Shock. We had a feeling about what was coming, and we were not wrong.
