A couple of episodes ago, I launched a new series on the podcast, Vignettes from the Source, to feature some of the unforgettable moments my guests have shared over the years. Continuing the series today then, is a passage of 7 or 8 minutes from my conversation with award winning filmmaker and photographer, <a href="https://nicolragland.com/">Nicol Ragland</a>. Longer term listeners might remember, Nicol was behind the very first Farmer’s Footprint film, among many others. Well, four years since she was on the podcast, we met in person for the first time at her home in Oklahoma City last week. Approaching that visit, the family and I listened to the episode I recorded with Nicol those years ago, and I remembered what a brilliant conversationalist she is. I was reminded of her belief in ‘the adjacent possible’. And when I asked my final question of Nicol, ‘what elders have been important for her and how?’, her answer was really something. It had to be the next vignette.If you’re inspired to listen to more, or revisit the rest of this conversation, tune into <a href="https://www.regennarration.com/episodes/080-regenerative-media">episode 80</a>. <a href="https://regennarration.buzzsprout.com/">Chapter markers &amp; transcript</a>.Recorded 16 March 2021.Title slide: Nicol Ragland (supplied).See more photos on the original episode web page linked above, and for more behind the scenes, become a supporting listener via the links below.Music:Intro music by <a href="https://jeremiahjohnson.com.au/">Jeremiah Johnson</a>.Stones &amp; Bones, by Owls of the Swamp.Regeneration, by <a href="http://www.ameliabarden.com/">Amelia Barden</a>.<a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6ewYjiljhUCURUzhfZCqMf?si=6c16a527c1e64c0f">The RegenNarration playlist</a>, music chosen by guests.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2091922/open_sms">Send us a text</a><a href="https://www.regennarration.com/support">Support the show</a>The RegenNarration podcast is independent, ad-free and freely available, thanks to the generous support of listeners like you.
