Views From the World Tree
Two cousins traverse the world tree in order to bring a fresh and entertaining perspective to the ups and downs of daily life through personal stories, current events (not political), and a weekly topic of discussion. We end every episode with a mindful moment where we take a moment to grow personally, mentally, emotionally, and at times spiritually.
On this week's show, we put each other to the test and challenge ourselves with our first ever prepper quiz show.

For months now we’ve been huddling in our homes around the fire for longer each day, sustained by the warmth of our hearth and our harvest from this year’s crops. On one day soon though, the light will start to linger a little longer than before. On Tuesday night, people all over the northern hemisphere will begin to take comfort in the knowledge that from that night onward, days will grow longer and the sun will start to return, bringing daylight, warmth, and crops. Historically this was cause for great a celebration held on or about the winter solstice, called Yule.

For this week’s show, we wanted to relax a bit from the structured topics algorithm. One of my favorite TV Shows growing up was the trivia game show “Jeopardy.” On the show, they sometimes had a category called “potpourri,” which was a bunch of unrelated, leftover questions that they didn’t have time for on previous episodes. So, that’s what we’re calling this, as we take a look at video games, books, movies, or any questions that you as listeners sent in.

Introduction:* Welcome to “Views From the World Tree.” On today’s episode… we discuss the merits of aromatherapy, have a mini book club, and find the true meaning of chriss…. halloween.
Personal News:* Steve: + The stress of the year finally caught up to me and forced me to the sidelines over the weekend as I caught a bit of a stomach bug. I think I needed it as it helped me slow down, turn off the electronics and read a book or two. I finished “Trophy Hunt” and “Out of Range” while I was down and out. I also recently started reading Rewilding as well as “In Plain Site” which is the next book in the Joe Pickett series. * Adam + Manual Photography
Current Events:* Adam: + Mystery of deadly US infections solved; aromatherapy spray at Walmart to blame * Steven: + Not much of a current event but more of a question for the community and my co-host. Every day I wake up and get ready for work I see on the news information about vandalism for entertainment, auto thefts, people shooting and killing each other over minor issues or perceived slights while on the road. It has really pushed me to a point where I dislike people and automatically think the worst instead of hoping for the best in people.
Main Topic:Pagan Origins of Halloween
- Vetrnaetr (Norse/Scandinavian)
- Samhain (SOW-UHN) (Celtic, specifically Gaelic)
- All Hallows Eve/All Saints Day
- Present-Day
Mindfulness Moment:* Samhain by Raven Willow Rune
Next Episode Sneak Peek:* Join us next week as we honor our fallen soldiers in a salute to Veterans Day.

Introduction:
- Welcome to “Views From the World Tree.” On today’s episode… we take a look behind the curtain and discuss how to protect yourselves from the things that go bump in the night.
Personal News:* Steve: + This week has been a bunch of downs for me but in order to find some form of normalcy, peace I have been working on developing a new role playing game. It is still in the early stages of development but the premise is the use of modernish…. technology and incorporating it into an altered Dungeons and Dragons type of system. + I have also made it a month of studying Spanish every single day. If you are familiar with DuoLingo I have made it out of unit one and started unit two which apparently means that I am still a novice learner, but I understand a bit more. * Adam: + Your spanish study inspired me to try and learn a language, I already speak Spanish and Portuguese so I decided to learn Norwegian. I’m currently on day 8 or 9 and my official assessment is that grammar is hard.
Current Events:* Adam: + Agrivoltaics - new trend of co-developing the same plot of land for both solar energy production as well as farming or raising small livestock under a canopy of solar panels. + Jack’s Solar Garden in Boulder, CO is open for volunteers and tours. * Steve: + Elephants in Africa are starting to go through an adaptation where they are losing their tusks. Scientists believe that this is due to the ivory poachers and that the breeding elephants in certain areas of Africa have diminished tusks thus limiting the size of the tusk in the gene pool.
Main Topic:* Halloween Monsters + Due to length restrictions we had to remove the breakdown of different monsters and their traits out of the show notes, so we will post them on our website http://viewsfromtheworldtree.com
Mindfulness Moment:* “Autumn is a second Spring when every leaf is a flower.” Albert Camus * “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” - L.M. Montgomery - Anne of Green Gables
Next Episode Sneak Peek:* A look at the pagan origins of Halloween going back to the Norse Vaetrnatr and how that inspired the Celtic festival of Samhain. Also a look at the origins of some of the modern traditions like trick-or-treating, masks, and pumpkin carving.

Introduction:* Welcome to “Views From the World Tree.” On today’s episode… we discuss cognitive theory, books, and Roswell.
Personal News:* Adam: + Finished reading Rewilding (Micha Mortali), we can cover what I learned in more detail ina future episode but some of the parts that I highlighted we can discuss for a minute today * Steve: + Over last weekend I spent three days and poured epoxy counters over to our new place. It was a learning experience to say the least but after all the prep work they really turned out looking like a slab of Marble from Italy. I am pleasantly surprised at how they turned out. You can find pictures of them on our twitter feed and soon I’ll put up a post on our brand new website!!!!!
Current Events:* Adam: + Excerpts from Stanford Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman’s interview on dopamine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBwM-mCLQQo - Society has a huge dopamine dependency/addiction due to social media and context switching. - Trying an experiment where you do not pick up your phone for the first hour of every day. * Steve: John Deere Strike!!!! from Vice news + Largest Strike since 2019 in the USA + Auto Workers union rejected a new contract between the union and the company.
Main Topic - The Roswell Conspiracy:* Brief History * Roswell: The Final Verdict documentary * Discussion + Found material that was super hard yet didn’t weigh anything - could withstand a hammer hit - Titanium? A12/U2 parts + Would the government keep things like this from us to keep the narrative of power? + Would aliens actually visit us? + Do you believe that there are aliens walking amongst us right this moment? Like third rock from the sun or the MIB movies?
Mindfulness Moment:* Many tribes from the America’s have beliefs of connection to the people in the stars from creation myths where they themselves are descendants from the star people to stories of them asking for divine intervention and being rescued by the star people. As I was looking into a certain myth I found that tribes as far west as California and as far east as the Mississippi river all had myths regarding these star people.
Next Episode Sneak Peek:* Have you ever wondered where the things that go bump in the night came from? What about how to protect yourself from them? Join us next week as we continue our Spooktober programing with a discussion on the monsters and myths of Halloween.

This episode is the first of an intermittent, recurring series on conspiracy theories and urban legends. Today's episode is all about HAARP - the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program - and the conspiracy theories that surround it. Started by the US military in the 90's, is HAARP really just an ionospheric research station, or is it secretly a weather-controlling super weapon that can also cause mind control while simultaneously spying on communications equipment around the world?
On today's episode we talk about the 9/11 attacks, the ensuing conflict as a result of these attacks, and how these events in part shaped the video games we play today.
On today’s episode we talk about the origins of the Labor Day holiday in the United States our own work experience, and we have a discussion about the work ethic and motivation of today’s workforce from the perspective of the in-between generation of the elder millennial.
On today’s episode, our first ever, we have some basic introductions and icebreaker-type questions to help you, our listeners, get to know a little about us. We go over who we are, and how we got to where we are today.
