Spotlight on Black-Owned Pet Businesses
From The Kitchen Sisters | Part of the Fugitive Waves series | 36:38
Inspired by a blackboard sign on the street in Davia’s neighborhood announcing “Spotlight on Black Entrepreneurs,” we enter the creative and growing world of Black-Owned Pet Businesses.
Lick You Silly dog treats, Trill Paws enamel ID tags, The Dog Father of Harlem's Doggie Day Spa, gorgeous rainbow beaded dog dollars from The Kenya Collection, Sir Dogwood luxurious modern dog-wear.
“The dog training world—it’s a white dominated space. It’s kind of male dominated, too,” says Taylor Barconey of Smart Bitch Dog Training in New Orleans. “On our profile on Instagram we have Black Lives Matter, it’s been there for a year now. Before 2020, we would have not felt comfortable putting that up at risk of losing our business because people would have blacklisted us. But now, we feel like we can finally breathe and be open about things that really matter to us—speaking out against racism and not feeling shy about it.”
Chaz Olajide of Sir Dogwood wasn’t finding communities of pet owners or pet businesses owned by people of color. “I did a deep dive into the statistics —I just wanted to see if maybe I was an outlier, like maybe the reason why I’m not seeing more diversity in these companies is because maybe the demand isn’t out there. Actually, you know, that’s not really the case.”
Brian Taylor, owner of Harlem’s Doggy Day Care lost both his uncle and long time mentor to Covid. During the pandemic his business slumped by 80%. So with some help from his pet parents and supporters he decided to hit the road with The Pup Relief Tour offering grooming services to anyone going through rough times and in need. “All together we had about 63 African American dog groomers that went on tour with us across the country and we groomed over 829 dogs.”
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Black-owned pet business entrepreneurs. There are tons more across America and you can support their businesses and services. House Dogge in LA — artisanal dog tees, hoodies, toys — committed to helping unwanted, neglected and abused dogs. Dr. Kwane Stewart, an African American veterinarian who walks skid row in downtown LA tending the unhoused dogs of unhoused people. Fresh Paws Grooming in Brooklyn. The animal advocates at Iconic Paws, a customized pet portrait gallery with flare. Pardo Paws in Georgia, an all natural company with a lotion bar in the shape of a dog paw for dogs with dry noses and paws made of cocoa butter, olive oil, coconut oil, beeswax, calendula. Precious Paws Dog Grooming in Bloomfield, New Jersey.
Little L’s Pet Bakery and Boutique in Brooklyn. Scotch and Tea — stylish and durable dog accessories. Bark and Tumble, a luxury and contemporary brand of hand made dog garments in Britain. Pets in Mind a Holistic Pet Supply Store in Coconut Creek, Florida. Beaux & Paws in Newark, Pet Plate — an online black owned pet food delivery service. Duke the Groomer in Chicago, Ava’s Pet Palace started by Ava Dorsey, age 13.
Most all of these businesses are giving back in some way to their communities working with at-risk youth, taking them in with mentorships and internships that hopefully lead to jobs, and donating generously to shelters and rescues and neighborhood food banks.

During a summer, 1994 break from the rigorous road schedule for the Allman Brothers Band, Warren Haynes, Allen Woody, and Matt Abts retreated to a Florida recording studio to record a series of demos for their side project, Gov’t Mule. Those sessions yielded a few songs that would go on to become Gov’t Mule favorites, including “Blind Man in the Dark.” The sessions were finally issued in 2016 at The Tel-Star Sessions. We’ll hear music from that release on this episode as well as selections from the Grateful Dead’s From the Mars Hotel.

OHR165: OHR Presents: Mark Alan Jones, 6/19/2023
From Ozark Highlands Radio | Part of the Ozark Highlands Radio series | 58:59
Ozark Highlands Radio is a weekly radio program that features live music and interviews recorded at Ozark Folk Center State Park’s beautiful 1,000-seat auditorium in Mountain View, Arkansas. In addition to the music, our “Feature Host” segments take listeners through the Ozark hills with historians, authors, and personalities who explore the people, stories, and history of the Ozark region.
This week, Ozark original multi-instrumentalist, composer, educator, audio engineer and OHR host, our very own Mark Jones recorded live at Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with Mark as well as with his long time friend, country music superstar Marty Stewart.
Anyone who listens to Ozark Highlands Radio will be familiar with the fun loving and friendly voice of Mark Jones, the keeper of our “Vault.” In August of 2021, we lost Mark to Covid-19. His passing was a profound loss to all of us, both professionally and personally. Please join us as we pay tribute to the life and legacy of our dear friend, Mark Jones.
Mark Alan Jones was born in 1955 to Country Music Hall of Fame & Grand Ole Opry performers Louis "Grandpa" Jones and Ramona Jones in Nashville, Tennessee. As a young man, he toured across the country with his famous parents making appearances on the Grand Ole Opry and the television show "Hee Haw.” He performed with numerous other artists including the Willis Brothers, the Wright Brothers, and Jimmy Driftwood's Rackensack Folklore Society. He also worked as a sound engineer for the Statler Brothers.
Mark toured with renowned guitarist, Doyle Dykes, playing in churches throughout America. He was a regular performer at the Grandpa Jones Dinner Theatre in Mountain View, Arkansas, and was a founding member of the Arkansas Beanfest. Mark spent several years playing banjo and running sound and lights at Silver Dollar City and Shepherd of The Hills Outdoor Drama in Branson, Missouri. He also worked as a performer and sound engineer at the Ozark Folk Center in Mountain View, Arkansas.
Throughout his life, Mark taught private music lessons helping to preserve traditional folk music. Even though his life was deeply engrained in music, he enjoyed working with the intellectually disabled and often used his musical talent as a therapeutic tool. Mark is a 2021 inductee of the George D. Hay Society Hall of Honor.
In this week’s “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers archival recordings of himself and a few of his friends demonstrating his true passion, the clawhammer banjo. Hear Mark playing the tunes Mountain Whippoorwill, Cripple Creek and John Hardy, from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives.
Author, folklorist and songwriter Charley Sandage presents an historical portrait of the people, events and indomitable spirit of Ozark culture that resulted in the creation of the Ozark Folk Center State Park and its enduring legacy of music and craft. This week, Charley celebrates 50 years of the Buffalo National River. This episode continues our tour of places “you shouldn’t miss” and other remarkable spots along the 135 miles of America’s first national river, as well as where to find information about park events, facilities and services. Featured are interviews with park ranger & interpreter and Buffalo National River Partners Board member Kevin Middleton and Buffalo National River Partners Board Chairperson Terrie Martindale.

The Billboard 200 chart began regularly publishing on a weekly basis in March of 1956. Dave’s Picks 46 marked the band’s 56th top 40-charting album on the list. The Dead continue to have the most top 40 albums among groups. The acts with the most top 40 albums on the Billboard 200 are:
Frank Sinatra (58)
Elvis Presley (58)
The Grateful Dead (56)
Barbra Streisand (54)
and Bob Dylan (51)
Lets talk about the Top Album Sales chart. The chart has been around for about 30-years. In 2022, The Dead had five titles in the top 10 - more than any other artist of the year. We hear from one of those titles!
We get into History of the Grateful Dead Vol. 1 (Bear's Choice) [50th Anniversary Edition] which was released on May 5th. Originally released in 1973, the newly remastered live album captures the Dead at an essential moment of their history, as they were about to record Workingman's Dead and shortly thereafter, American Beauty, and were transitioning into becoming Americana pioneers, while never losing touch with their psychedelic improvisational roots.
The newest box set: "Here Comes Sunshine 1973" is a limited-edition, 17-CD set, the release date is June 30th, and limited to 10,000 copies. Featuring five previously unreleased, highly sought-after shows. The shows include: Iowa, Santa Barbara, Kezar Stadium, and two shows from RFK in D.C. We hear a digital single from the set!
GarciaLive Volume 20 is set to be released on June 30th. The set features a complete, previously unreleased Jerry Garcia Band performance from June 18th, 1982 at Cape Cod Coliseum.
Grateful Dead Meet-Up at the Movies is an annual event that began in 2011. This year, “Meet-Up At The Movies” is in select territories worldwide on June 22 and 24. This year’s event is the Dead’s first ever concert at Chicago’s Soldier Field on June 22, 1991. The big screen will have the original six-camera stadium video feed with pristine soundboard audio. Featuring the Dead’s Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann, Mickey Hart, and with Bruce Hornsby and Vince Welnick on keys.

Episode #683 - Rhythm & Booze: Bad, Bad Whiskey!
From Matt "The Cat" Baldassarri | Part of the Juke In The Back With Matt The Cat series | 59:00

The "Juke In The Back" once again raises a glass in our Rhythm & Booze series. This time, the entire program is dedicated to that Bad, Bad Whiskey. For some, whiskey ruined their happy home, but for others, a Half-Pint-A Whiskey set the stage for good times. Lucky Millinder along with Wynonie Harris (his first time on record) will ask that musical question of "Who Threw The Whiskey In The Well," and Bull Moose Jackson will answer it accordingly. Amos Milburn is the star of the show as no other R&B artist sang so often and so thoroughly about booze, especially whiskey. Matt The Cat spins three of Milburns' whiskey platters as well as two solo whiskey sides from Wynonie Harris. We'll go swimming in a sea of whiskey with Willie Dixon and his Big Three Trio and find out if whiskey helps your gambling habit with Sticks McGhee. So pour the bourbon, scotch and corn whiskey as we get all hopped up on that juice for this week's "Juke In The Back" and the "soul that came BEFORE Rock n' Roll."
