0117: Songs of the Climate Crisis

From Billie Eilish's oblique pop provocation and a Sámi yoik without words, through hip-hop, vaporwave, a rewritten patriotic hymn, a demo for a song cycle about a tree, and a master's thesis processed through grief, to Radiohead closing the set at their Oxford home — Earth Eclectic assembles an urgent, genre-spanning chorus of artists confronting the climate crisis, while the sound of a melting Swiss glacier runs beneath it all.Go to episode

0115: Luminous Darkness

From a Colorado poet's daily practice and a Brecht lyric written under fascism, through Barcelona harbor, Caracas, Indigenous Colombia, a Paiwan-language firefly song from Taiwan, and a 2002 German demo about fairies in the forest fog, this episode maps the reciprocal relationship of light and darkness as seen from an Earth-based perspective — and finds, in their interplay, something very close to a theology.Go to episode

0114: Where We Go to Connect & Commune

A pilgrimage in music through the physical and spiritual places where we go to connect — from the rivers and rooftops of New Orleans to the Rocky Mountains, the Slovenian hills, the redwood groves of Muir Woods, and the "Gaia Place" for each of us.Go to episode
