Solitary Soldiers of Service ~ Volunteering in the Shadows
(Airdate: December 27, 2022) This episode highlights a subset of volunteers: those individuals independent of nonprofit associations who serve humbly and discreetly from behind the scenes. More often than not, these folks choose to remain unnoticed. Missy Nielsen, host of Everybody Can, was able to convince one of these solitary soldiers of service to speak on what inspires and informs their decision to volunteer in this way. Join our conversation with videographer and storyteller Dennis Daneau, and be inspired to consider in what unique way, large or small one can make a difference in the lives of others.

Rachel Maxwell & Michael Ableman
(Airdate: December 26, 2022) This week on Attention Please! we dig into the KPTZ archives to bring you two more presentations from the 2017 Economics of Happiness Conference held late that year at Port Townsend’s Fort Worden. It was a weekend-long event that brought together some of the world’s most prominent thinkers, writers, and activists in the sustainability and localization movements to “discuss, discover, and devise better systems for now and the future,” as the event’s website put it. This week we hear from Community Sourced Capital co-founder Rachel Maxwell, and organic farming and urban agriculture pioneer Michael Ableman, who were both on hand to lead workshops at the conference.
