- Steve Dunnett is back for August with a roundup of classic alternative songs on The Alt Vault (temporarily replacing The Bricolounge until September). FRIDAY 3pm, 1hr, music
- Sounds From The Funky Kingdom & Beyond has passed on the horizon! We bid farewell to this award-winning show and host, and wish him all the best. Who knows: perhaps he’ll be back again someday! In it’s place, we’re listening to Boom Bap! MONDAY 7pm, 1hr, music

- We’ve been delighted with the limited-series road movie that is REVISITATION, and the producer has promised another wander down the highway again next spring. For now, however, we introduce EarthMatters, serious talk about the world we inhabit. FRIDAY 2pm, 1/2 hr, spoken word
- Ear Candy has closed up shop, so we bring you another sweet in it’s place: Folk Roots Radio, with country and folk songs to give you that nostalgic weekender. SUNDAY 3pm, 1hr, music

The Lunchbox Interview: Melissa Kennedy (Ink Artist)
The shapes of nature are full of human expression, and when you can focus on those alone, magic happens.
During the summer, the city of Fredericton is hosting numerous artists and crafters each week at the Odell Park Lodge, to practice their art for all to see. These artists come from a wide variety of disciplines, from painting and sculpture to basket-weaving and writing. From time to time, we’ll check in with these artists on the Lunchbox to find out what makes their art move them.
My guest today is Melissa Kennedy, an ink artist who is exploring the intricate and surprisingly human elements of the Odell Park forest. She joined me on the porch of Odell Park Lodge to talk about her pursuit of art.

RFYL Episode – ExemplaryEP081
You know, if we had 3 day weekends and 4 day work weeks, life would be essentially the same. Sure, less time at work, but then we’d all be looking super-forward to those 4 day weekends that we got once a month (Canada, I don’t know about other countries but we typically get one bonus day off a month [officially, anyway, min-wage jobs are great {Who even uses these kinds of brackets?}]) and then just go back to the old grind.
WHAT I AM SAYING: We easily build routines and can never be happy for long. If you disagree, then get your own radio show or something.

Howl – Blood Red Shoes
Black & Red – Reignwolf
Whiskey & Mead – The Standstills

HitG 022: Character Death
Roleplaying games allow players to vicariously experience heroic actions with high risk and high reward — but sometimes those actions might fail, or the opposition is either just too powerful or gets a lucky strike. So, for such a dangerous profession, death is likely a highly probably event.
Just us as we talk about what role character death might play in your games, how it can be a good or a bad thing, and how to handle it when it might be sensitive.

The Lunchbox on History: The Acadians of Pointe-Sainte-Anne
Before this city was named Frederick’s Town, it was known at Pointe-Sainte-Anne, but it’s a history that isn’t often explored.
My guest today is Stephanie Pettigrew, the Research Director of a new exhibit at the Fredericton Region Museum focusing on the Acadian residents of Pointe-Sainte-Anne. In particular, Stephanie tells us about the discovery of a personal family connection to a prominent local Acadian farmer and intermediary.
How much do you think you know about New Brunswick history? Personally, I think we do a pretty bad job of teaching it, and most people don’t embrace it. I’m on a mission to learn more, so I’ve invited a collection of historians to help me learn more about the legacies, the achievements, the battles, the inventions, the troublesome eras and the long past of one of Canada’s oldest regions.

The Lunchbox Interview: Carol Harquail (Dressmaker)
Art has the potential to encapsulate entire lifetimes in a single image, drawn from single moments imagined and expanded, composed out of strips of deconstructed cloth.
During the summer, the Fredericton Region Museum invites artists to work and demonstrate their art to visitors of the museum, bringing history to life. You’re encouraged to visit the museum for its slice of New Brunswick history, and then plan to spend time talking with the artists, just as we do on the Lunchbox.
My guest today is Carol Harquail, a native fibre artist who uses her skills with sewing and cloth to carry on a tradition of making clothing with meaning. She making (and helping others make) dresses steeped in tradition, from the healing jingle dresses to the updated traditional ribbon skirts. She tells me a bit about how the journey through dressmaking has helped her uncover traditions and cultural beliefs of her peoples, and how she expresses them through her creations.

The Lunchbox Interview: Melanie Buyting (Oil Painting)
Painting is the art of throwing colour in patterns on canvas, often creating the illusion of lines as a byproduct of vision.
During the summer, the Fredericton Arts Alliance brings a pair of artists together in the Barracks to practice their art for all to see. These artists come from a wide variety of disciplines, from painting and sculpture to basket-weaving and writing. As each pair of artists comes in, we’ll be talking to them on the Lunchbox.
My guest today is Melanie Buyting, a self-taught oil painter with a knack for vivid colour. Melanie talks about her plans to create a triptych representing the changes of seasons, following this year’s Barracks theme of trees by showing woods in transition. In addition, she is challenging herself to do figure painting, and shares the basic rules of oil painting which she learned from absorbing videos online.
