Frank Florin Kirtan From the Temple of Light Temple Of Light originI thought I would add just a bit to the interview by describing the orgin of our group. I began going to Kirtans about 4 years ago. Although a bit familiar, I had no idea of the wide range of Kirtan, the styles, artists, and the communities. My wife Kim and I went to Bhakti fest in Madison the summer of 2013 and that really lit a fire and we went to more local Kirtans. There we met Frank, a gentle, kind soul with a passion for Kirtan. Somehow Kim and Frank talked about playing some Kirtan for fun. I was on board as well as our good friend Dave. None of us (other than Frank) were really musical but we shared the passion for Kirtan. I bought a harmonium and learned what I could with on line lessons, friends, and just experimenting. We went to a couple drum workshops and Dave and Kim bought Jumbais. So we had all the pieces. It was fun getting together but at that time we still thought it was for fun. Then Kim was sharing our new found passion with a yoga instructor we knew long ago and she asked us to play at her Yoga retreat. Nervously 3 of us agreed (It didn't work for Frank then). That was Nov of 2014. But we so enjoyed sharing and creating a sacred space we decided to move that direction. So we practiced about 8 chants and played for the first time as a full group last May in Stillwater. We've tried to play monthly since. We have done home Kirtans, benefit Kirtans, yoga studios, and last year organized and played for a larger New Years festival. We offer any donations to a charity (we take turns) and with my turn last Nov I decided to help Northern Spirit Radio and included a note about adding Kirtan to "Song of the Soul". I did not think it would be our group, but Frank did a great job. Shanti, shanti, shanti. Roger klisch (not verified)

photo of Peter smiling Sex & Sexuality, Part 1 Why not 2 moms or 2 dads?I was excited about the gender neutral language in "Baby needs a parent", so I was a little bit disappointed when the song didn't mention the possibility of having two moms or two dads. Any insight into why this choice was made? Lydia Bates (not verified)
Bill Camplin King of Cafe Carpe We went places most people do not goJust a note to say that I enjoyed the format and edited transcript of our conversation. It was a good interview and we went places most people do not go in my long, though infrequent, history of doing interviews. Thank you for affording me a chance to find out what comes out of me when asked interesting questions. Bill Camplin (not verified)
Zachary Moon Bringing Peace to Soldiers Z Moon, the myth of the antiwar movement spitting on soldiers...This talk perpetuates the myth that the peace movement of my generation mistreated the returning vets. That is simply not true. The US military turned their backs on them, from the VA hospitals to the streets where they were broken and forgotten by many, other than the peace movement who were the ones picking them up and feeding them in the parks and back alleyways. VETS WERE NOT SPIT ON in any great numbers, if ever there was one instance proven to be more than a repeated story, never verified. I know… I was there. They are not our soldiers. They are not “serving” us. They are victims, who are lied to and serve Halliburton, Lockheed, and the other untaxable agents of the military industrial complex which has stolen democracy from the American people and many nations around the world. I would no more thank these poor ones for serving the cause of war and oppression than I would thank the criminals I work with, as a curator in the Museum of the American Gangster. I listen to gangsters, tell their story, contextualize and even have close friendships who have been violent criminals. But, I have not once thanked them for their “service.” There is a huge gap between calling someone a baby killer and thanking them for the “service” of being a gunman who has raped innocent nations which have never threatened our families or nation. We can tender to them, feed them spiritually, but to thank them is an act of pure hypocrisy or simple misunderstanding of the role of the military. Joining the army and putting on a uniform is antithetical to the cause of liberty, the cause of peace. The old chestnut of changing the world by being a part of the system, when the system is purely evil is just foolish. There is a wonderful film, about a teacher to joins the SS to keep his job… and in the end, begins down that slope of accommodation to evil… the film is called “Good”. I highly recommend it. One cannot become part of an evil system to change it from within. Any one who joins the military for reasons of integrity is mistaken, pure and simple. The purpose for the US army is to conduct illegal wars of aggression. We go into other nations and kill for the profit of the ones who have destroyed this nation at its core. One can engage in conversations with respect without accepting the lie that the US military is nothing more than a criminal gang. I was more than shocked that the interviewer did not challenge the myth that the anti-war movement spit on soldiers. This interview turned the issue into a black and white issue. There is a broad middle ground of standing apart from war, shunning the army, and loving the soldier and helping to bring her or him to an understanding in the same way we help to lead young people out of street gangs. We don't join street gangs to help crips and bloods. The young gang members believe they are in the service of their families and communities. That does not give a color of integrity to the wrongs they commit in the error of their allegiance. Lorcan Otway (not verified)

Carolyn Carter Ozark Timber Carolyn Carter is the real dealI had the honor of playing music with Carolyn and I have to say she is the real deal. Thank you so much for this show. Hearing her voice and stories again brings me back to one of the most amazing moments in my life. She is an amazing songwriter and one of the most humble people I have ever met and what an amazing voice and spokeswoman for her community. An incredibly giving woman.
