Wolverines - Fact or Fiction?
Jason Kirchner joins us from Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in Newport, Oregon to dive into one of nature’s most enigmatic creatures: the wolverine. As the District Wildlife Biologist, he answers questions like: What are wolverines? What do they look like? How do they behave? Where do they reside? Separating fact from fiction, we will reveal whether they truly are an intense fictional-feeling species or if they are just as friendly as your pet dog.

Oregon Black Pioneers
Did Oregon even have black pioneers? Listen to our interview with Zachary Stocks, Executive Director of Oregon Black Pioneers (a non profit which preserves the history of Black Oregonians) to find out more about this whole topic. When did black pioneers arrive in Oregon? What were some of the places where we ride bicycles today that were utilized by these early settlers?

Rural Riding Etiquette
Riding next to scenic terrain, such as the Wallowa Mountains, are often in very remote and rural areas. Many of these rural areas in Oregon are active rural areas so while you may be out for a Sunday morning gravel ride, there are many ranchers actively working.
Listen in on Eric Makela, the Vice President of the Wallowa Mountains Bicycling Club, and his advice to not only have fun out in rural rides near the Wallowas but also how to stay safe and alert while out there.
Besides listening to the podcast, we hope you consider adding a donation in your tourist budget and check out the Wallowa Mountain Bicycle Club.

Pine Mountain Observatory: Exploring the Cosmos
Welcome to Pine Mountain Observatory, nestled in the serene landscapes of Oregon about 34 miles southeast of Bend. In this episode, we unveil the highlights of the night sky with our guest, "astro monk" Alton Luke, Head of Operations at Pine Mountain Observatory and a key figure in the University of Oregon's Physics Department.
Today we get to peer through the lens of Alton’s perspectives as he takes us on an astronomical exploration to share more about the observatory, how to prepare for visits, and what kinds of celestial events to look out for.
If you want to peer through the lens of some telescopes too, jump off the bike during the Dark Skies route and keep an eye out for a clear weekend with no moon.
