Kayak Safety
(Airdate: June 19, 2023) This reprise show, produced by KPTZ DJ host and kayaker Chris Bricker on the subject of kayak safety, was motivated by the tragic deaths of two kayakers just off the Dungeness Spit in April of 2015, along with more recent incidents involving ill-fated kayakers. These are beautiful and spectacular waters, but it’s important to remember the essentials when venturing out in this region to enjoy this great sport. We speak with veteran kayaker and adventurer Chris Duff, Dr. Sam Baker on cold water immersion, leaders of the Olympic Peninsula Paddling Club, and rescue swimmers from the U.S. Coast Guard Station in Port Angeles. Experienced Kayaker, KPTZ’s Mermaid Keri introduces the show.
Community Tides ~ 6/16/23
Our special guests today are two out of three childhood friends who grew up here in Port Townsend and have co-founded a tiny game company called 3 Much Fun. Their first project is in true Port Townsend fashion. They have allowed their creative imaginations and talents to flourish unabashedly. Dakota, Henry, and Daniel also represent Port Townsend’s youth who, instead of fleeing their home town for other parts, have returned here with gusto, to their roots, to become contributors to the craftsman and maker culture that makes Port Townsend what it is. Co-hosts Chris Bricker and Siobhan Canty, President & CEO of Jefferson Community Foundation, speak with Dakota Sandoval-Gay and Henry Nolan. With collaborator Daniel McCurdy and illustrator Conor Nolan, they have created a world-building activity book that comes to life with the roll of a dye. It’s called Roll For Your Life.
