A podcast about artistry, craftsmanship and the creative life in the Great Lakes. Brought to you by two Great Lakes creators -- Steve and Clare Hendershot from The Diving Bell.
More than a decade after Cedar Cathedral, my first podcast, I'm back with a new one: Uningrained.
It's a narrative, documentary style show about blind spots, invisible ideas and hidden assumptions. We take ingrained ideas and pull them out of the woodwork. We investigate what they are, and why—and whether they’re worth changing.
The first season looks at the idea that softball is baseball for girls—instead of, you know, baseball. You don’t have to be a sports fan to like it, just someone who’s curious about culture, interested in why things are the way they are, and how they might be better.
Please check out the trailer, then subscribe to Uningrained wherever you get your podcasts!
Thanks,
Steve
