After a brief unintended hiatus from the podcast Adam Olsen and Nick Gilchrist resume their conversation about life in British Columbia politics.

It has been a busy year and with the original week 7 episode languishing in the dustbin of unpublished podcasts, this second attempt will be much more successful - it will be published.

Part of the challenge of producing a podcast is editing and writing the show notes. So until there his a team producing this show, the show notes are going to be brief.

In Episode 7 Nick and Adam discuss:

• Nick's amazing new microphone (Shure SM7B),


• The missing podcast  (mentioned above),


• Taking a break (replacing work with puzzle-making),


• Embracing a new role as the Interim-Leader of the BC Green Party (https://www.bcgreens.ca/leadership_2020)


• A question from a listener about what is meant when people talk about unceded territory,


• Looking forward to 2020,
  
  - Focusing on personal health and well-being,
  
  - Improving communications,
  
  - Forestry,
  
  -- The economic perspective and resource harvesting practices of the W̱SÁNEĆ with the SX̱OLE (reef net),
  
  -- Embracing the restoration economy,
  
  -- Having new conversations with the leadership of resource communities about their future,
  
  - Education,
  
  -- Protecting and enhancing public education as the cornerstone of our modern society.
