Co-hosts Robin Renée and Wendy Sheridan get ready for The Leftscape's summer hiatus and share some of their plans for the season. Wendy makes a big announcement about being chosen to create an outdoor fiber arts display for the Rahway Train Station. Robin's season will be a bit more relaxed; they'll perform a couple of shows and go to quite a few more, attend a retreat and plan another for the fall, and catch some time in the sun.
Wendy initiates this episode's featured conversation with her July 4th tarot reading. It may or may not be a "reliable source" of information, but it sparks insight and ideas about our current situation, what the future may hold for the United States over the course of the next year, and how we might take action. In an extended Pièce de Résistance, Wendy and Robin offer some activist work we can continue over the season including seeing what's next in the No Kings movement, working with mutual aid groups, and attending a Good Trouble Lives On event on July 17th. The Timeline Cleanse entries touch on challenging topics but are ultimately uplifting; Robin reflects on the the final Ozzy Osbourne/Black Sabbath show and Wendy reports on Australian scientists who have reversed Parkinson's in mice.
Have a great summer (or winter, if you're Down Under)!
