We have recently pivoted our podcast to include some english, in addition to the language episodes that we will continue to do. We have discussed Celebration of wiping out cUsTeR, plants/gardening, mortgage/home buying, speaking with an Ojibwe speaker, singing, various guests, and language journeys. Next, we are interested in discussing tatanka, kombucha, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), and helpful tips to learning lakota.
