In this edition of Musings of the Living, we cover a wide range of stories in relation to accidents and mistakes people have made and the forgiveness that follows. Also, we include a new section that hopes to ground Musings of the Living in the Bible - a very good book.

Forgiven Faults

This edition is moving back to the basics, we include our standard sections with a general bend toward understated discoveries.

Subtle Epiphany

This edition of Musings of the Living includes a perspective on how things aren't always as they seem from a boy's imagination to unexpectede wisdom to concealed evil. This edition is filled with deceiving appearances.

Deceiving Appearances

This edition is the celebration of the one year anniversary of the lifespan of Musings of the Living. It looks at how much this podcast has grown. We also focus on things that are small with big effects or expand to a lager size than was originally expected. Some examples of this are a story, a high school band making it big and interviews with people that live in a small town with big, beauteous surroundings and have had big adventures. Perhaps one of the great highlights of this anniversary commemoration is the return of an old friend.

Minute to Magnanimous

In this edition a lot of our sections are trying to look back at things we've done in the past and returning to those while moving on. Some examples are the intro song and transitions which are from a very old song of Joel's, but we have changed them a bit.
Returning to a New Time

This edition of Musings of of the Living is quite revolutionary. It's a testing of our musical skill including a song by Erik and a new section titled "Top 3 Songs". The second chapter of Joel's story Tim's Dream is brought to life as we experiment with sound effects and music. Then Erik and Joel discuss the Scottish electronic band "Boards of Canada". We really hope you enjoy it!

Exploring the Wire

We incorporate a great new feature in which we interview a local personnel who in this case works for the West End Cultural Center among other things. We also include a song of his from an album that hasn't been released yet. Erik then reads a poem/a collection of haikus and Joel starts off a serial story. Erik and Joel then have a song that's going to be released with their album 765 Rooftops, which is still in production. Joel then responds to a book and then Joel and Erik reflect upon Supertramp as requested by Linda Tiessen Wiebe of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Disguised Revelations

This edition contains an interview with the undeniably famous Bob Jackson as well as one of his hit songs "I Will Fight the Opressor Man". Erik Berg then reads a story he wrote for very young people, and then Joel and Erik muse on Van Morrison by request from Calvin Wiebe of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada! Thanks for the request! Enjoy!

The Lonely Famous and the Famous Lonely

This edition focusses on the mind, including a guest appearance by two philosophers on the meaning of life. We also have two poems in our writing section including Joel's debut. Simon & Garfunkel take the musical spotlight and we muse on their existence.

Acoustic Minds

In this edition of Musings of the Living, we experiment with pitch, hence the title. We include an opening song, which is based simply on the dial tone of a phone. We also have our second original song that we've recorded and after that Joel reflects on his photography. To finish it all off, we do our musical spotlight on Neil Young and then let you exit our world with a remix of a grade 10 applied mathematics class.

Fluctuating Octaves and Oscillating Falsettos

This edition is shorter than the rest, mainly due to an absense of Joel's writing and a comdedy section. It's focus is on the beauty of small town and rural life. You will get a glimpse of Canada by listening to the emerging new band The Sword Swollowers (name in continual process of change) first song, The Rockies.

You'll then get a taste of Erik's knack for storytelling as he completes the story that he started last edition. The musical legend Johnny Cash is then focused on in this edition's musical spotlight. Enjoy!
