Ginger Radio Hour: Turtle Season (Audio)

Jun 04, 2024

Watch out for turtles on the road! It's turtle season in the Catskills and writer Sy Montgomery's new book Of Time and Turles: Mending the World, Shell by Shattered Shell helps put it all in perspective. Did you know that turtles can regenerate nerve tissue? And that they literally come back from the dead? Sy and I chatted about turtles, patience, and persistence. (Rebroadcast from Oct 03, 2023.)

Host Justin Maiman, from Cairo, shares his latest inspirations on the "Ginger Radio Hour." The show features music, field recordings, performances, and interviews, primarily with people in and around the Catskill Mountains of New York live from WGXC's Acra studio. Excerpts of interviews on this show are often heard again later on the "WGXC Morning Show," the "WGXC Afternoon Show," or "All Together Now!"
