A non-podcast-related post: I recently was able to digitize the VHS copy of a short documentary of a blind harbor seal I made when I was an audio-visual intern at the @nationalaquarium.bsky.social during the summer of 1993. It was great to revisit; my thanks these years later to the aquarium staff!

My recent podcast episode featured Matt Donovan and Jenny George and their new book We Are Not Where We Are (@bullcitypress.com) , an erasure of Walden, so I stopped at Walden Pond to do a little reading of three of the poems. Enjoy!
