I'm featuring highlights from the country's favorite progressive podcast community.

Since launching in 2020, the Harbinger Media Network has become Canada's number one listener-supported nonprofit podcast network featuring 83 shows exploring politics, society, and culture from a progressive perspective.

But this one I think is available and you can watch the actual video that goes with this.

But it's amusing and we're going to share it with you on our birthday spectacular here on Accordion Noir CFRO Co-op Radio, 100.5 FM, Vancouver.

Hey, where'd it go? It disappeared.

This is supposed to start playing when I push this button.

This is the Conversation Lab.

I'm Don Schaefer, and you're listening to this broadcast and podcast on CFRO-FM or Co-op Radio at 100.5 in downtown Vancouver.

Today, we're talking with Rasna Mantha and Sasha Amaral, who are with Universal Limbs, a Canadian not-for-profit helping amputees in Gaza.

One of the questions I wanted to ask you is, and this is, I guess, a bit uncomfortable.

If you'd like to learn more about their work, you can visit universallims.com. And there's a really interesting documentary about 3D printing and the Gaza War on YouTube.

That's another episode of the Conversation Lab.

This radio program and podcast is produced by CFRO-FM or Co-op Radio in Vancouver's downtown Eastside on the territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations.

Our gratitude and thanks to them and the many not-for-profit organizations and community groups for their support.

Welcome to The Nosh on CFRO 100.5 FM, Co-op Radio in Vancouver.

I'm Anya Levick, your host.

It's Tuesday, I'm Anya Levick, and this is The Nosh.

I think we just need to do the work to find, build those communities.

Well, we're going to talk about that more after the break.

You're listening to The Nosh on Vancouver Co-op Radio, CFRO 100.5 FM.

I am speaking today with Joanna Jagger and Tash McLeod of Worth Association.

We'll be right back.

What do we got coming on here? We got a pretty tune from Andy DeFranco, some cool Steve Jordan in this set and Chet Atkins from way back in 1947 coming on here and Matt Pudding from right here in Vancouver, maybe Stefan on accordion coming at you.

This is called Salmon Run here on Accordion Noir, CFRO Co-op Radio from their Rattle on the Stovepipe record.

Thanks so much for being here on CFRO Co-op Radio, 100.5 FM Vancouver.

Vancouver.[singing] Growing up, it was just me and my mom against the world, and all my sympathies were with her when I was a little girl.

Now I've seen both my parents play out the hands that they were dealt, and as each year goes by, know more about how my father must have felt.

See how we do here.

But in this next set, we got, uh, a little bit of Colombia, Newfoundland, uh, Weimar Germany, Finland.

How about that? See how we do here [laughs] on Accordion Noir, CFRO Coop Radio 100.5 FM Van...

And you're listening to Accordion Noir here on CFRO, Co-op Radio, 100.5 FM, Vancouver.

You just listened to Figued Up from their 1982 record, After the Tempest, the Darby Ram there.

The Avenues before that, Deja Vu from their way back in 2010 record there.

So I pulled this one.

Also in this next set, Kanai, of course, some of our favorites, and Reet from up in Nunavut, I think.

So these are folks we got coming on in this next set here again on Accordion Noir CFRO Co-op Radio 100.5 FM Vancouver.

Oh, I got to say, thank you for joining us here on Accordion Noir CFRO Co-op Radio, 100.5 FM, Vancouver.

Yeah.

Push the correct button.

One of the only First Nation Native Indian traditions, Native American accordion traditions that I know of in the U.S. And they're rocking down there.

And so we're going to start with that.

This is a track called Rancho Grande Huayla here on Accordion Noir CFRO Co-op Radio 100.5 FM Vancouver.

Thank you.
