Freshwater Cowboys at NLand Surf Park
Whether you love it or hate it, the era of the wave pool is very much upon us. Kelly Slater is holding events in his new-and-improved Lemoore facility, Wavegarden's Cove design will soon be exported to various locations around the world, and the future of surfing looks like it's bound to feature much more freshwater. At the moment, however, the best artificial wave that is currently open to the public sits on the outskirts of Austin, Texas at NLand Surf Park. We recently traveled to NLand with Hawaiian rippers Albee Layer and Torrey Meister to see just what Austin's best (see: only) wave is capable of, and to investigate whether or not surfing can thrive in a landlocked community.

Samara Jade - What Remains (old growth redwoods song)
Original song by Samara Jade written amidst a mighty old growth redwood forest of Northern California. For more of Samara's music, check out her newest album Wave of Birdsong at
or more music and videos on her website: samarajademusic.com
Or Listen to Samara Jade on Spotify, iTunes, etc.
Posted for Interdependence Day .... our roots are all connected...
Here’s “What Remains,” a song from the perspective of the ancient trees, written in an old growth redwood grove in California a few months ago. Well, really I feel like the song wrote me. After two weeks of touring, with a gig every night, I spent a couple days off in the redwoods, and in utter exhaustion and awe sat under a great giant for hours and mused in my journal until this one came. Im not the kind of person that “hears” songs or voices/channels things, and my songwriting process can be very logical, but something about it felt like it was coming out of the trees, as if it was something they wanted humans to hear. And it feels relevant to share it surrounding the 4th of July, as it speaks to some of the toxicity in which our nation was found upon, that we are (hopefully) learning more and more to uncover and not just sweep under the rug...
A month or so later I found myself in another redwood grove and my friend Aimee filmed me singing it. Happy to share it with this song:
What Remains
We’ve seen our brothers get knocked down
Heard the horrid crashing sound as they hit the ground
Of the valley and echoed all around
Just because you weren’t there don’t mean it didn’t make a sound
But here we are, the ones who remain
Though we’ve seen everything around us drastically change
Right here we stand, not far away
We are the ancestors to whom you pray
So will you listen to what our voices have to say
Close your eyes and shut your ears and listen with your heart
Our roots are all connected and you are no less a part
Of everything so when you hurt there’s nothing that won’t feel the pain
So do your best to care for and to love what remains
Do your best to love what remains
Once we covered over all the land
You could walk hundreds of miles through our cathedrals so grand
And all the creatures could understand
To take only what they needed until some of them began
To take what cannot be given away
‘Cause the more you take more than you need the more you’ll lose someday
Now with the little bit that remains
We give you seeds and knowledge and we hope you change your ways
Will you listen to what I voices have to say?
(Chorus)
You founded your nation on two thefts so grand
Stealing land out from its people and stealing people from their land
With hungry minds and entitled hands
That groped and grabbed without consent with unquenchable demand
But there’s a pivot point here today
With much toxicity to grieve, dismantle and to fray
And it may take time to decay
But may new life grow up on the fertile beds of fallen ways...
Will you listen to what our voices have to say...
(Chorus)
Rio Grande Valley Litany, a poem by Rodney Gomez (Poem #11)
Rio Grande Valley Litany
Not the wealth
Not the census place with all the wealth
Not the thousand among the million
Not the wealth of the thousand
Not the segregated place
Not the segregated classroom, the segregated desk
Not the punishment for the brown mouth that says zarzamora
Not the amnesiacs and the enablers
Not the old Harlingen
Not the place with all the wealth
Not the pristine verandas, Mexicanized lawns
Not the land grants
Not the wine tastings
Not the platinum wedding package
Not the brown bodies who forget the people who live among the huisache
Not the brown bodies who forget the salt that was here before them
Not the Dallas Cowboys
Not the charcuterie, not the opera cake
Not the sons and daughters sent off to St. Edwards and St. Mary’s
Not the Playboys of Edinburg
Not the vanity press
Not the ranches and farmland passed down from one thief to another
Not the bayside condos
Not the interlopers, drawn from one wealth to another
Not the Island and the lesser islands
Not the vanity boutiques and treasury bonds
Not the poet laureate
Not the elsewhere degrees and certifications
Not the royal decrees
Not the Brownsville Raid
Not the lineage
Not the noble stock
Not the breeding
Not the ennui
Not the payday loans
Not Kris Kristofferson
Not the brownfields
Not the real estate swindlers
Not the poetry of the visible
Not the trivial mention of tacos and enchiladas
Not the opportunistic use of the mariachi
Not the classroom Spanish
Not the museum director, not the conductor, not the doctor, not the writer, not the poet (especially not the poet)
Not the free time to write
Not the free passes for this and that crime
Not Saint Joseph Academy
Not the power brokers
Not the educated patriarch
Not the insouciance
Not the inheritance
Not the car dealerships
Not the mayor
Not the city council
Not the exclusion
Not the wealth in the hands of the few
Not the priest who drives a Benz
Not the cotillion
Not the founder of this city or that city
Not the maleness
Not the white beauty pageant
Not the high school peacocks
Not the teeth-whitening agent
Not the antibiotics
Not the after-Mass mimosa
Not the tax write-offs
Not the estate planning
Not the luxury hotels
Not Vail, not Breckenridge, not Copper Mountain
Not the microbreweries
Not the bistros
Not the Broadway show tunes
Not the private collections
Not the garden party
Not the real estate ventures
Not the nonprofit boards
Not the doctor-owned hospitals
Not the baroque revivals
Not junkyard chic
Not pioneer, not Confederate
Not any name like Shary or Stillman
Not the inability to distinguish migas from chilaquiles
Not the brown Republicans
Not the owner's box
Not the small business owner
Not molon labe
Not the casual sexism
Not the business done on a golf course
Not the public golf manager's salary
Not the lighted tennis courts and pitch black soccer fields
Not the Polo shirts
Not the starched khakis
Not the smugness
Not the Ray-Bans
Not the Lexus
Not Noah, not Liam, not Mason
Not the central air
No the paved roads
Not the Duck Dynasty clones
Not the ones who disown the ghetto in their hearts
Not those who leave and never return
Not the indoor plumbing
Not the redesigned garages
Not the comfort
Not the comfort
Not the comfort

As you may have noticed, we like to blow stuff up on this channel. So when the International Red Cross approached us to collaborate on a video about nuclear weapons, we were more than excited.
Until we did the research. It turned out we were a bit oblivious off the real impact of nuclear weapons in the real world, on a real city. And especially, how helpless even the most developed nations on earth would be if an attack occurred today.
So hopefully this video demonstrates how extremely non fun a real world nuclear attack would be, without being too gruesome. This collaboration was a blast (no pun intended) and we want to say a huge thank you to the International Red Cross!
