This week's Rock Garden Tour features an original tune by friend of the rock garden, Elsa Vande Vegte, and a tip encouraging rock gardeners to plant roses in a bed of lard. It might be easier if you just listen to the podcast.

Keep it rural.
We intended to discuss garden variety insects in this week's Rock Garden Tour. But, as you'll hear in the podcast, we spent most of our time discussing Box Elder South Dakota instead. We talked about the town, and the bug, and whether or not the town was named after the bug, or the tree, or the creek. We also made it known that Box Elder (the town) is actually 2 words, not 1, while Boxelder (the bug) is spelled as a compound word (in some cases). It might be easier if you just listen to the podcast (see mp3 at the bottom of this post), or go here and listen to the whole show as heard last Sunday night on SDPB Radio (state wide).

The Cramps – Human Fly
Let’s Wrestle – Insects
Broken Bells – Mall & The Misery
Maps & Atlases – Pigeon
Suckers – Roman Candles
Jeffrey Lewis & The Junkyard – Bugs And Flowers
Those Darlins – The Whole Damn Thing

Corporate asked us to avoid any garden variety banter in this week's show, so we sang a song about the Corn Palace instead. We did some non-garden related interviews too, with the owner of Mr. Bendo and a former voice of Gigglebees' Wilbur. Warp on over to this website here to listen to the whole thing. Or if you'd rather just hear a sampling, listen to the mp3 at the bottom of this post. Here's the playlist from the show if you're interested.

Nellie McKay – The Very Thought Of You

Nothing says straight talk like a guy dressed up in a yeti costume. In this week's Rock Garden Tour we get serious on issues like gazanias, sensory garden organic pest control and Oasis, the band not the rest stop.

I searched for an 'eponymous' image on Google and it gave me this. This week's Rock Garden Tour podcast deals with misunderstood horticultural terms that lots of folks use in every day speak. Terms like organic, all natural and eponymous. Thanks to Rebecca Terk of Flying Tomato Farms for shining a light on these words, helping us to expose them in front of the entire state of South Dakota, and beyond. Also a big thanks to Mike Billeter and Mike Hay for admitting that they don't really know the definition of irony. Here's the playlist from this week's show, listen to the whole thing right here.
The Velvet Underground - After Hours
Knight School - Pizza My Coat
The Jayhawks - Let The Last Night Be The Longest
Avi Buffalo - One Last
The National - Lemonworld
Freelance Whales - Hannah
Pearly Gate Music - Big Escape
Alela Diane - White As Diamonds
Enjoy this week's podcast and keep it rural.
I took a week off to plant the garden. But, never fear, we're back in the swing of things now and all is right in the cosmos. This week's podcast features an interview with Christopher Langford (pictured above with herd of llama). I also mixed in some witty banter from Coach.

Last night's Rock Garden Tour on SDPB Radio shocked the fashion world, from 5th Avenue in New York to Hollywood to Menno, SD. Tim Gun was like, 'DUDE!' A friend of the show sent us a link to a story about gardening, in GQ Magazine. So we produced a whole show about it. We talk about overalls and stuff - its chic. If you're interested, listen to the podcast at the bottom of this post, or visit www.sdpb.org/rockgardentour/ and listen to the whole friggin' show.
