TRANSCRIPT

Listen Rinse Repeat – REVIEW challenge
Songbird Reviews Songbirding
Soft crunching sounds as someone walks through forest undergrowth, with the sound of birds
singing in the background. The steps slow as INTERVIEWER softly speaks
INTERVIEWER: Alright, I'm here today looking for a songbird. That bird looks like it's
singing, so it's probably a songbird, right? Okay, here goes…I'm now going to cast 'speak with
animals' to communicate with this bird.
Sounds of spellcasting.
INTERVIEWER: Alright, then. Hello, bird. We're here, in a forest where Rob Porter has
recorded birdsong for his podcast, Songbirding. I have one question for you: What is your review
of Songbirding?
BIRD: IT'S GOOD!

TRANSCRIPT

You must be kidding me!! Who even gets busy signals now?? My Darlings, guess what? I suppose I won't be meeting with the Board as those idiots blocked my call! I told Mommy and Daddy I did NOT want to do this. Hmmmmm...wait. What does this do? In case of a tantrum, press here.

This episode of Listen, Rinse, Repeat was written by Kyle Jones of the Discussing Who podcast and starred Fiona Faucet as herself. Find out more at Discussing Who.com.

David calls Elvira from another timeline. Elvira needs to talk David into helping her. David needs to convince Elvira to trust him. It's basically a whole… wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey thing.

This story in eight parts can be listened to in any order. To follow Elvira's timeline, go E1-E8, and to follow David's, D1-D8 – once they are all released, of course.

Hoopoes lay smelly eggs.

This episode is not explicit.

Story by PRRP, Music by Mx Michael

TRANSCRIPT

Hoopoes lay smelly eggs.

Like their namesake, unless I'm pronouncing it wrong, they're a bird that will lay a smelly, brown fluid across their egg batch, to kind of prevent predators and stuff from wanting to look at them, because they're so nasty and disgusting. It makes them smell like bacteria and rotting meat. I remember in the summer, you did not want to get outside the house when it got too warm, because of all the animals, so I can only imagine how repulsive these eggs seem. They're normally blue, but they make them all gross and brown.

Hoopoes lay strange eggs.

How Sheriff Jim came up with the idea for the bugle warning system.

This episode is not explicit.

Voiced and written by Kari Aguila of "Broken, Alaska".

TRANSCRIPT

Sheriff Jim.

Sheriff Jim keeps the streets of Broken, Alaska safe, and last year, he came up with a brilliant idea. Broken isn't big enough to have a 911 system, and people were having a tough time remembering his new cell number (it's 907-397-9037, by the way). Anyway, Sheriff Jim thought long and hard about what to do, and the answer came to him like a bolt of lightning in the middle of the night. He remembered the days of his youth in Kansas, when an air-raid siren was an effective way to alert the whole town of danger, so why not develop a similar system in Broken?

An air-raid siren would cost too much, and it seemed a bit extravagant to have people cranking it up every time they needed the Sheriff, so Jim decided to go with something smaller. That's why you see the shiny brass bugles nailed to poles all around town. If you get in a pinch and need a hand, just give a bugle a big blow, and Sheriff Jim will come running.

TRANSCRIPT

Once upon a time, there was a prince. No wait, princes are dull. There was a farm girl. Nah… All right, once upon a time there was a small paper clip curious about the world. One day, the small paper clip was selected to hold a report together. The paper clip (along with the report) was sent on a journey across the vast office landscape, seeing enormous desks and computers, chairs and coffee mugs along the way. That night, the small paper clip lay on a tray among their new friends and looked up at the ceiling high above. "Tomorrow", they thought, "tomorrow I might go on a new adventure". Happy and tired, they settled in to sleep. Shh. Don't wake 'em now… Good night.

Darkness engulfs me.
Bitterness and loneliness play freeze tag
Throughout a sleepless night.
At dawn, the pitter-patter of little feet.
Her tiny arms envelop me.
Warmth flows from her pressed cheek to mine.
"Good morning, Mommy."
Her words linger like a melody,
As sunrise ignites hope for the new day.

TRANSCRIPT

ADHD is one of those disorders that isn't getting a ton of attention, right now, when people talk about quarantine, but it's actually very hard.
Don't think about it like, oh, squirrel, or being hyperactive. It's an executive functioning disorder, so your ability to form a plan, follow it through, and then assess how well it went, is damaged, on a fundamental level. That makes things like working from home, or digital learning, really, really difficult.
Give people some respect, and ask them if there are ways you can help structure their day a little bit. And accept help, if it's offered. You matter.

TRANSCRIPT

The following was found written on an undated postcard sent from the Motel Americana, undated:

Dear Jack,

The following words have been trademarked by the Flaming Tiger greeting card company: "Love," "Grace," "Loss," "Sorry," "Life," and "Time." You may still use these words in everyday conversations, but when writing them, you must include quotation marks and the proper citation. Larry Humpwilde, the CEO of the company, made the following statement: "The new trademarks on these old, nearly meaningless words will reinvigorate the common human experience." The experts suggest that these words will carry a larger emotional impact now that they can be purchased in designer boutiques. The Flaming Tiger company plans to release more affordable versions to denote less intense expressions of emotion. There is, of course, the risk of counterfeit cards, already said to be circulating through the Chinatowns of the nation. Chairman Humpwilde despises these fraudulent vendors, stating, "Counterfeits could have dangerous psychological implications. Imagine finding out that the 'love' you felt was not true 'love' TM. Imagine that your experience of "life" TM was somehow false.

Yours,
Ahab Cloud

We have no children in Broken, Alaska, but we do have Margaret Hall at 92 years old. And she's still out leading tours down the frothy rapids of the Jackhole River. When I asked her what she thinks about catching Covid19, she just snorted a laugh and said,

"You mean, can it catch me!? Now scoot outta here, sweet cheeks, I gotta get home to my boy-toy, Tyler. He's been working his glutes extra hard this week on the treadmill, and I'm gonna see if I can bounce a quarter off 'em."

I flipped her a Kennedy half-dollar and told her to bounce it two times for me.

Yours,

Cardinals chirping, red-winged blackbirds trilling from the woods.
Percussionist woodpecker beats a syncopated rhythm from behind a leafless oak.
Cackling spring peepers, hidden in vernal ponds, improvise a backup chorus.
High above, hawk screeches a solo.
Self-isolating on my deck, I'm grateful for nature's elusive musicians
creating a comforting concert.

EULLABELLE: Dearest Ambrose,

Our youngest torments me. While hardly lacking for toys or entertainment, he wishes only to watch interminable recordings of the unboxing of toys on... I shan't say the name of the website, for it has become a curse to mine ears. And the eggs... oh, the surprise eggs. Sanity lingers as a memory.

Always, Eullabelle

TRANSCRIPT

People these days don't believe in me. They say fairies are only for storybooks. But we're here - in the fields, in the forests, by the ponds, and by the cliffs. We're the ones who leave those so-called fairy rings in your backyard - fertile crescents of plush grass. And we're the ones your pet stops to stare at. Just because you can't see me doesn't mean I'm not there. In fact, on a still summer night when you look up at the sky or down at the land, don't be surprised if one of those fireflies has a rainbow trail.

This is the call of the Black-capped Chickadee.

This episode is not explicit.

Recorded and narrated by Rob Porter.

Hi! My name is Rob.

I'm a naturalist and software engineer in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. For a decade I've been learning bird identification both by eye and ear, and occasionally leading small group birding outings with the Hamilton Naturalists' Club.

In the last few years I've also been recording birdsong, both with my handheld setup (iPhone + mic) and with automated bioacoustic recording devices I've built or acquired.

Last year I set up the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project where we've recorded thousands of hours of soundscapes in natural spaces throughout our region. We've also devised various methods for volunteers to turn the recordings into observational data. This was a stepping-stone towards the creation of the Songbirding podcast.

Keynote: ""The stratocumulus cloud? Overrated. The altostratus cloud? Boring. The cumulonimbus is by far the coolest, easily the most interesting, but dangerous clouds you'll ever see. These supercells are thunderstorms on steroids, billowing upward and rotating quick, at times spawning tornados, gale force winds, and hail the size of a softball. You simply will not believe your eyes until you've looked at the sky, and gazed at the cumulonimbus…"

TRANSCRIPT

On the surface of a remote and frozen planet, a lone researcher
named Sarah watches as dark spots form on the exterior wall
of her laboratory.
The spots slide down the wall and coalesce into a puddle when they reach the floor. As if directed, this puddle moves towards Sarah.
Sarah makes hurried notes before jumping up on a chair.
When the puddle reaches her chair, it forms vertical tendrils and
climbs up the chair's legs.

Jawfish lay strange eggs.

TRANSCRIPT

Jawfish lay jawful(?) eggs.

Jawfish, especially the Yellowhead Jawfish, are a type of animal called a Mouthbrooder. As you may have guessed, this means that the male jawfish will fertilize, and then collect all something-like-400 eggs into his mouth, where he'll wait for about a week, starving himself because, turns out, it's hard to eat when you're already stuffed to the, um, gills, with caviar. Then, the eggs all hatch in there, which must be just the strangest sensation. I've only ever fit, at most, like 30 grapes in my mouth at once, and when they popped, they were not alive.

Jawfish lay strange eggs.

TRANSCRIPT

Okay, so here I am on a forest hike and I've come across a set of stairs. Like, an actual staircase right off the beaten path. They lead to an intricately carved, sturdy-looking door at the top. Do I dare approach it? When I peek around, there's nothing on the other side. Still, I take a step up. The wind stirs. Another step. Now it howls. Another step. It blows steady against my back pushing me onward. Another step. Another step. Another step. I open the door. The wind lifts me up off my feet and guides me over the threshold… and everything's changed.

Seward bought Alaska, but was it folly?

TRANSCRIPT

Seward's Folly.

What are you reading, Mark?

I thought the cats and I would learn about U.S. Secretary of State, William H. Seward.

I heard that guy was a weirdo.

Most people thought he was a bit weird. See, he bought the Alaskan territory from Russia for at the time, a measly $7 million. It was cold, sparsely populated, and didn't show much promise. Congress people laughed and laughed, and called the whole Alaskan purchase "Seward's Folly".

See, sounds like a looser.

Seward died a few years later, and went to his grave thinking he was America's biggest loser for buying Alaska. But, in 1896, they found gold in the Klondike.

So, he never knew his Alaska purchase was an amazing deal?

Not in his life.

Wow.

TRANSCRIPT

Anxiety is more than feeling nervous.
Pretty much everyone feels at least a little nervous, just now. Use those nerves, to remind yourself to stay home and wash your hands.
But anxiety can be like a grinding, constant Eeyore cloud overhead, or it can be a specific pattern of thoughts that you just cannot stop.
It's more self-destructive than simple nerves.
The best thing that you can do is to reassure people that you care about them and that their experience is valid. And the same for yourself. You matter.
