Ceremony Wins at SXSW S4E3

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 05:00:18 +0000

We are thrilled to welcome Banchi Hanuse, Qwaxw Siwallace, and Q'umulha Schooner to the pod this week. They were nice enough to sit down with us at SXSW for a chat before winning the SWSX Documentary Audience Award!

The history of North America is littered with centuries of imperialism, and scars run deep. In Bella Coola, this story is even more harrowing than most. The Nuxalk Nation has seen attempts to wipe them out with smallpox, genocidal acts to steal their land, and now, the disappearance of the ooligan has been a major hit to the local customs. Ceremony tells the story of a people and a land, highlighting the ways that culture and the land remain as ingrained as ever.

Because no one asked for it, we, once again, revisit and discuss, "Edington" (not sure if it's spelled correctly, but too lazy to look it up).

Anyways, our all father, god creator extraordinaire, the OG, Jason Asenap graces us with his presence to talk about Edington.

Just like the mighty Cicada, Jason shows up every seven years and whips out his Tymbal to sing his shrilling chorus. Your ears will be blessed to hear such a song.

Also, we meander a bit and talk about the lovely power couple, Ramona Emerson and Kelly Byars -- and lavish them with words of love. Turns out they’re working on a documentary right now . we didn’t know at the time of the recording so keep your eyes up for that .

And as an added bonus, because all enquiring minds want to know, we discuss our favorite Taylor Swift era.

So, turn on, tune in and drop out.

The muzak is:

Once again, we talk about lack of (or in this case, no) Indigenous representation in a story that has a lot of Indigenous connections in relation to the atomic bomb and nuclear power.

We give praise to the creators and storytellers who really know how to tell a good yarn and just chat it up about how good it is. We also confuse Eddie and Michael Spears, so our apologies to these fine actors. Also, Director Danis Goulet is Metis. We apologize for the confusion.

Jason makes a cameo appearance to give us a synopsis run down until he has to leave for a better class of people. But, rest assured, he will be back.

The music for this episode is:

"I'd Rather Go Blind" by Kat Lock, from the album: "You Again"

Thanks for listening.

PREY 2: Electric boogaloo (with a little "MOHAWK" talk on the side)

Tue, 20 Sep 2022 05:05:00 +0000

No, they did not already make a sequel to "PREY", but we made a sequel to our "PREY" discussion. Jason & Sunrise, our resident Numunu, hop on to give us some deep cuts on the Comanche happenings in "PREY". Plus, Sunrise gives us some insight on what he did on the movie.

Then, Angela brings up a little gem of a movie called, 'MOHAWK" and asks the question, is "PREY" just a ripoff of "MOHAWK"? The quick answer: No. But it is a discussion that happened.

Anyways, sit back, relax, get some of that Predator Indian Taco and give us a listen.

Music is:

"Art" by Kat Lock. From her album, "You Again"

Enjoy and thanks for listening.

Remember, don't just keep it real

Reservation Dogs Season 2, Episodes 1-2 (with a little "Jaws", "E.T." And food talk thrown in)

Tue, 13 Sep 2022 05:05:00 +0000

In this episode, we get back to our roots and talk about "Reservation Dogs" season 2, episodes 1 & 2. We also go off topic and chat a bit about the problems with the Sonics regime change, how much we love taco mayo and Braums. No one mentions Mazzio’s but we also love Mazzio’s. We also talk about the "Jaws" and "E.T." re-release, and ask the immortal question: how does pan and scan work for IMAX films?

"Reservation Dogs" may not have jumped the shark, but we just may have.

Thank you very much for listening. Please rate and review.

And remember, don't just keep it real, keep it--

REEL INDIGENOUS!

Special thanks to Melissa Bisagni for researching and finding the archives and articles that were used in this discussion.

13. Adirondack...er, we mean Rutherford Falls S2

Tue, 28 Jun 2022 05:05:00 +0000

Look at us, we made it to lucky episode 13.

It feels like it was just last week that we were talking about how much we loved season 1 of Rutherford Falls. Well, it looks like we weren't just a snag. Rutherford Falls has come back to us for a second season, and we are still in love.

In this episode, Noetta Harjo is like a great sitcom character that we just can't get enough of. She's no longer a special guest, and is starting to become a regular, and we are happy for that. So, Noetta, Candice and Angela get together to chat it up about season 2 of Rutherford Falls and say some nice things about it -- especially that wild Halloween episode.

So, crank up the Poddy Cast machine, listen up and witness the greatest love story between a podcast and a TV show.

The music, once again, is:

"Room to Grow" by Kat Lock from her "Some Recurring Notes" album.

Dig it if you can.

Thanks for listening.

Don't just keep it real...keep it Reel Indigenous!

12. Rutherford Falls Season 1

Tue, 21 Jun 2022 08:20:00 +0000

No, this is not a show about the basketball legend, Randy Rutherford. Though there should be a show about him, and it would be called Rutherford Rises.

In this episode we hop a ride on the flashback machine and head back to the good ol' days of 2021, where we talk about another phenomenally badass Indigenous series that came out way back when called, "Rutherford Falls". We do an overall discussion of season 1 as season 2 streams from the Peacock right now.

Tvli talks about the show from a male point of view, and Candace and Angela have to keep him in check and explain lots of stuff to him.

But, overall, we just boast about how much we love this show.

So put on that "Free Britney" t-shirt, grab your Covid-19 vaccination card so you can remember whether you're team Pfizer or team Moderna, and maybe even Team johnson & Johnson. While you're there, you should fill up a tank of gas for less then $100 as we go back to 2021 when life was easier and "Rutherford Falls" was fresh and new. Then, come back to the present and watch season 2. Hopefully we'll chat about that fairly soon.

Thanks for listening.

The music is:

Why Are You Crying?" by Kat Lock from her "Some Recurring Notes" album.

11. Dark Winds (DUCK!)

Sun, 12 Jun 2022 05:05:00 +0000

We're back, baby, with 8 lives to spare.

Why?

Because some people got to see the new cool as a fan TV series, "Dark Winds", and we got to inquire with these bonafide media critics about it. Y'all know we had to come back for this.

In this episode our baby boy has come back home to us. After a brief stint of doing some real movie stuff, Jason Asenap has returned.

And not just that -- we gots us a special guest. Another real life critic who hails from Geek Girl Authority and goes by the handle:

Noetta Harjo.

We are so lucky that she has decided to slum it with us lowly poddycast folks.

Since Jason and Noetta are real life critics, they got to watch the new AMC show "Dark Winds". And they come here to spill the beans about what they saw.

Then after our chat, our real life journalist, Angela Startz, puts on her journalistic hat and talks about the time she hung out at a virtual roundtable discussion with Jessica Matten, Zahn McClarnon, Kiowa Gordon, Chris Eyre and Graham Roland -- the acting people, creators and storytellers of "Dark Winds".

The discussion was sponsored by the great folks at the Native American Journalist Association (NAJA).

This is kind of a long episode so hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening.

After you're done listening, don't forget to do some reading of Noetta Harjo's writings at:

https://www.geekgirlauthority.com/author/noetta/

and then maybe check out NAJA and see what all they offer:

And don't forget to watch the six episode series of "Dark Winds", dropping every Sunday, starting June 12, on AMC and on their streaming app: AMC+. Check local listings for showtimes and dates.

Remember, don't just keep it real. Keep it reel indigenous!

Okay, so, that was a short break...

Wed, 08 Jun 2022 05:05:00 +0000

Guess we're not taking a break just yet. Indigenous content be showing up all over the place (and it's about damn time! - and we still need more). Also, guests kept showing up to the party and they were the cool kids so we kept inviting them in.

Looks like the light's ain't turned out, the party ain't over, and we just gonna dance the night away!

So, keep them ears up and keep on listening. We'll whisper sweet somethings in your ear.

Thanks for showing up. It's not really a party without you. You're one of the cool kids. And, as always, rate and review and all that good stuff.

On the screen and the actual reservation dogs on the rez. Also, a few of us get a little too giddy about naked Gary Farmer, and we can't prove anything, but I'm sure a few of y'all took some screen shots of his beautiful nakedness. Especially all you aunties out there. All right. enjoy. All the big podcasts ask people to rate and review so please rate and review. Don't know why but it seems like the thing the kids are doing these days. You review it we might read them in a future episode.
