Uncover the secrets of Connecticut's wildlife conservation with Steve Gephard, who brings his extensive experience from the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to our show. We're celebrating 50 years of the Endangered Species Act, discussing the remarkable recovery of the bald eagle, and examining the plight of current endangered species in our state. Meanwhile, Dan Record takes us on a captivating journey through rockhounding, revealing how a Sci-Fi movie ignited his fascination with meteorites, and sharing the profound connection between personal passions and the broader world of mineral enthusiasts.
Step back in time with us as we traverse the perilous 1704 journey of a woman whose journal not only provides guidance but also positions her as an early feminist figure. Her determination, recorded for posterity, shines a light on the trials faced by women in her era. Then, marvel at the precision that goes into restoring historic homes like the Stanley Whitman House—where a black light unveils the original staircase, and nail chronology offers unexpected clues to the past. It's a testament to the meticulous care and curiosity required to preserve architectural heritage for future generations.
Finally, get an insider's view on New London's cutting-edge wind farm projects and how the upcoming federal elections could influence energy policy, with insights into the real estate market's current ebb and flow. Discover the savvy strategies homeowners are using to boost property values in a cooling market. As we wrap up, join us in celebrating the vibrant cultural scene at the Side Door with a world premiere music event.
