7 JUN. 2018 · This conversation with Peter Gold (trapeze artist, extraordinaire!) was so much fun! Peter is a long-time circus performer and trapeze instructor, and former AGM of Ringling Bros. Circus (as well as husband, father, and occasional guru). We discuss the shapeshifting nature of fear, and how trapeze is the perfect mirror, activator and transformer for whatever happens to be going on inside you. If you want to have your own Trapeze Experience, you can (and should!) join Peter for his life-changing classes at the Omega Institute, now through July. There are still a few spaces left in his 5- and 3-day workshops, July 1-6, and 6-8, respectively. Go to www.eomega.org/trapeze-experience-3 to register! www.trapeze-experience.com to find out more about Peter, his classes in the Hamptons, and everything to do with the Trapeze experience!

13 JUL. 2017 · For episode 1 of The Way In, I got to sit with three members of Freebin Records, a sprawling arts collective born at the Omega Institute in New York. Tyler Epps, Paul Lyons, and Sekaya are all three musicians (and, lucky for me, part of the audio-visual team at Omega!) After they showed me how to set up my recording equipment, we sat down for a fun conversation about life, art, and, of course, what exactly is in the Freebin.

BONUS: A glossary of terms listeners may appreciate for this episode. The Omega Institute, or Omega: A holistic retreat center in the Hudson Valley that runs from May through October and employs a seasonal staff comprised entirely of awesome people doing amazing things. The birthplace of Freebin Records. www.eomega.org for more information on retreats and/or jobs at Omega. Long House: A public space where staff often congregate when they are not working. The more specific birthplace of Freebin Records. The Bench, aka the Smoker's Bench: A bench where people (both staff and participants) sit and smoke cigarettes, within the designated smoking area. Golfcart (or just "cart"): How some seasonal staff get around at Omega Trailer: Just what it sounds like, but it might be helpful to know that Omega houses most of its seasonal staff in trailers. They live in the Trailer Park or "TP." (Still perplexed? Did I miss something? Hit me up-- marcy@metamarcy.com-- if there are other references in the episode that you would like explained.)
