    2.4 Mark Thieszen

    Whether it was to decompress after a day practicing law or to “study snowboarding” in college, the pull to be outside never left the attorney-turned-snow farmer, Mark Thieszen. When the opportunity to purchase the Homestake Lodge Nordic Ski Area presented itself after a summer spent clearing trees on the property, he jumped at the chance. Now, he and his family run the facility year-round, as a Nordic skiing destination and full-service wedding venue. For a kid who always wanted to simply be outside, he is lucky enough to have found a job sparking that same passion in others. Of all the places, Mark and his family call Butte, Montana home.

    2.3 Justin DeShazo

    The artist and closet scientist, Justin DeShazo has convinced himself that when more people get to know him, more people dislike him. What he doesn’t realize is how wrong he truly is. With his trademark snark, Justin shares his experience growing up in the rough part of town and the story of how his high school girlfriend saved his life with a small amount of money and a belief in him. They ended up marrying each other and started a family. He talks about the ‘approachable darkness’ of his art and how it is rooted in his personal healing journey. He also shares a deep appreciation of the blossoming art community that helps this Butte Original feel more at home. Of all the places, Justin calls Butte, Montana home.

These two city programs aim to coordinate, amplify, and sustain efforts moving forward, promoting health, safety, beauty, and the opportunities here... or the potential... or is it opportunity? Yeah, potential.  In the time between recording and publishing this episode, Shanna's efforts have directly led to Butte, Montana receiving a $20 million grant to build a community center, dubbed the Butte-Silver Bow Community Resiliency Hub.

    We’re pulling Ben Morris away from his computer and onto the couch to kick off our season 2 with a banger. He is an expert audio engineer with Morris Mountain Productions and the beefcake member of our favorite power-disco musical duo Desperate Electric. Ben tells us about growing up in a musical bubble, his (lack of a) hair care routine, and the process behind coming up with a ‘horny summer camp’ jam for their latest album. In all he does, Ben knows the importance of creating vibrancy in his world, whether that’s playing, mixing, or dropping fat beats that make us shake our booties. Of all the places, Ben (and Kayti) call Walkerville, Montana home.You can find Ben’s audio work at www.morrismtnproductions.com and his music at www.desperateelectric.comThis episode is brought to you by Collective Elevation.

    1.6 Mark Garff

    When you spend any time around Mark Garff, the idea that we can simply do better is contagious. This mantra is woven through his time in the Morman religion, his passion for several niche hobbies, and what led him to become a landscape architect in a town designated as a Federal Superfund Site. But not necessarily in that order, as we found out, because this also applies to his ability to mix a perfect cocktail… or four. Join us as we drink, laugh at ourselves, erupt into spontaneous podcast commercials, and learn to be better in everything we do.   Of all the places, Mark calls Butte, Montana home.

    If we’re lucky enough, we’re able to apply our passions and skills to the places most special to us. For Julia Crain, that place is her hometown. After receiving degrees in Seattle and Portland, Julia returned home and found herself working in local government. She’s inspired and sees each day as an opportunity to use her expertise in urban planning and policy to honor her deep Butte roots and contribute to a more functional, vibrant, and exciting community. And maybe even do a few cartwheels down uptown alleys with her daughter.   Of all the places, Julia calls Butte, Montana home.
