0118: Summer’s in Full Swing

From Jimetta Rose's gospel choir invocation of the Los Angeles sun to Lilli Lewis's firefly closing the New Orleans evening, host Laura Dedelow gathers thirteen artists from three continents to celebrate summer in all its aspects: the light, the storms, the flowers, the fledglings, and the brief, luminous dark.Go to episode

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
