Great Lakes Odyssey Radio Hour

This is the Great Lakes Radio Hour. The GLO Odyssey is on a quest to discover the eternal mystery at the Heart of Turtle Island.

In the Great Lakes Odyssey world it's a multi-national effort to strengthen and explore our relationship with the natural wonders known as the Great Lakes. Because none of us can live without pure drinking water.

We know we are blessed by these Sweet Water Seas. We claim them as our H.O.M.E.S. as the emotionally accurate mnemonic says. They are Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior.

As long as humans have lived in, and of and through the Lakes, people have told stories about them, sung about them, and gloried in this great gift of the long departed Ice Age. Left by glaciers many thousands of years ago, they are the World’s storehouse of fresh water. If they are drained… or ruined… or damaged, they can never be replaced.

So, as we travel around the Great Lakes Basin, we want to see how we are doing – what we are doing – how we’re feeling and what we’re learning as we try to live as lovers and restorers – and children and family – of the being whom the Anishinabek call Nayaano-nibiimaang Gichigamiin, the five freshwater seas.

We hope to galvanize, inspire, and motivate you to strengthen, support and steward the Great Lakes to a beautiful and healthy future.

So please join us on this magical, dare we say “magical mystery tour” of the Great Lakes Basin and Great Lakes culture. This is the Great Lakes Radio Hour.

A music and talk program. Arts, life and culture. Evergreen. Fresh.
