Three Things from Edmonton podcast - Episode 65: lottery, long Covid walk, final word Three Things from Edmonton

Thank you for stopping by the Three Things podcast. And, now, a word from Hannah Arendt:

“Since the decay of their once great and glorious public realm, the French have become masters in the art of being happy among ‘small things,’ within the space of their own four walls, between chest and bed, table and chair, dog and cat and flowerpot, extending to these things a care and tenderness which, in a world where rapid industrialization constantly kills of the things of yesterday to produce today’s objects, may even appear to be the world’s last, purely humane corner.”

This week’s three things:


Lottery – in the beginning was the Wordle.
Long Covid walk – 14,000 steps returned me to an old companion.
Final word – good obits deliver life sentences

The music in the podcast is original, the work of Edmonton pianist and composer Brendan McGrath. The end bells are courtesy Edmonton metal sculptor Slavo Cech.
