Host: Scott Carrier of Hearing Voices
The places we live and the people who live there; a desert, a city, two small towns, and another country:
Host Scott Carrier has a cultural history of the Great Salt Lake's "West Desert," a land of polygymists, bombing ranges, and toxic waste incinerators. There's chlorine gas in the air, anthrax stored underground, and people who call the place home.
Sarah Vowell's childhood move from rural Oklahoma to small-town Montana was, for her, a change from the middle ages to a modern metropolis.
Also, two Stories from the Heart of the Land: NYC native Natalie Edwards hates grass, bugs, dirt, and trees, but attempts a walk thru Brooklyn's Prospect Park; and Carmen Delzell tells why she moved to and has stayed in Mexico.
