This is episode 158. We talk BYU basketball. We talk about Phil's latest gig. We talk about why teles are so much better for metal than strats. We talk about how bad the Hills reboot show is gonna be. We talk about guns.  Here's a poem in honor of Joy Harjo's selection as US Poet Laureate:  Eagle Poem To pray you open your whole selfTo sky, to earth, to sun, to moonTo one whole voice that is you.And know there is moreThat you can't see, can't hear,Can't know except in momentsSteadily growing, and in languagesThat aren't always sound but otherCircles of motion.Like eagle that Sunday morningOver Salt River. Circled in blue skyIn wind, swept our hearts cleanWith sacred wings.We see you, see ourselves and knowThat we must take the utmost careAnd kindness in all things.Breathe in, knowing we are made ofAll this, and breathe, knowingWe are truly blessed because weWere born, and die soon within aTrue circle of motion, Like eagle rounding out the morningInside us. We pray that it will be doneIn beauty.In beauty. - Joy Harjo, 1990 This episode is brought to you by SINASOID.
