    Episode 4: Operation Deep Freeze
    Jan 6 2022
    In 1955, The USS Wyandot set out for Antarctica as part of the US Navy's Operation Deep Freeze. My father, William R. Goodwin, was one of the Seabees on board. This episode features an interview with him that tells his story. It is accompanied by my re-imagining of the sea shanty Wellerman as The Wyandot Comes with new lyrics that tell my father's story.In 1957, The International Geophysical Year would bring scientists from eleven countries to Antarctica to study the geophysics of our planet. The objective of Operation Deep Freeze was to establish a Naval airstrip at McMurdo Sound, to be used as a staging ground for building a base at the South Pole the following summer. This episode features stories of life and death on the highest and coldest continent, early signs of climate change, powdered potatoes, 100 proof moonshine, and... a sea shanty!SHOW LINKSThe Wyandot Comes (complete song)Operation Deep FreezeUSS WyandotSeabeesThe race to the South PoleSacrifice Amid the Ice: Facing Facts on the Scott ExpeditionAmundsen's South Pole expeditionThe Antarctican SocietyRobert Falcon ScottVIDEO: Task Force 43 (Naval History and Heritage Youtube Channel)VIDEO: Operation Deep Freeze Phase 2International Geophysical Year (wiki)NASA International Geophysical YearDeath of Richard WilliamsWellermanSea Shanties on TikTok6 levels of Wellerman (Sea Shanty) (Youtube Guitar Tutorial by Capo X)Antarctic Ice Sheet melting to lift sea level higher than thought, study saysAntarctica Melts Under Its Hottest Days on RecordCHAPTERS[00:00] Intro[01:54] The Death of Robert Falcon Scott[04:11] Operation Deep Freeze[08:08] The Wyandot Comes: Part 1[09:50] Old Grape Jelly[11:45] The Mechanic Who Drove the Weasel[13:48] The Wyandot Comes: Part 2[14:54] Drinking and Dying[19:52] The Wyandot Comes: Part 3[20:37] Let's get Geophysical[25:18] Adventures Make for Friendships Long[35:15] The Wyandot Comes: Part 4[36:06] Outro Get full access to Don't Forget to Breathe at www.dontforgetyoga.com/subscribe

    Episode 2: Manorama
    Nov 3 2020
    Between the inhale and the exhale there is a pause, or retention breath, that the yogi's call, "kumbhaka."The first three episodes of the Warrior One Podcast revolve around a yoga training that occurred the weekend of March 14th in Boulder, Colorado. That weekend became the pause between the pre-pandemic world, and the world we live in now.The training was led by two highly respected western yoga teachers. Episode 1 featured Amy Ippoliti, an American yoga teacher, author, and earth conservationist. This episode features Manorama, a world-renowned authority on Sanskrit, and a brilliant yoga philosophy teacher. Our third episode will feature an inspiring student from the workshop named Reginald Hubbard, who is a political activist.Manorama grew up in NY and found her spiritual teacher, Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati, at age 13. Impressed by his "aliveness" and voracious quest for knowledge, she studied with him until his passing, learning the Sanskrit language and yogic wisdom from the East. Combining that knowledge with her own western sensibilities, she has become one of the best-known and most-beloved Sanskrit and yoga philosophy teachers in the world.Manorama now offers the Sanskrit Studies Method, a process that guides you through the remarkable journey of Sanskrit, and shows you how to utilize the depth of Sanskrit in your yogic practice and life; and the Luminous Soul Method, which centers around understanding 9 pillars. Each pillar holds a key to expanding yogic wisdom in your daily life.We feature clips from an interview in NYC's Central Park before the pandemic, and a second interview after the quarantine began, conducted on Zoom. Prepare to be transported through time while we explore the world pre and post pandemic, up to the 2020 presidential election. Manorama and Pashupa both offer pearls of wisdom to help you through these times.

    Episode 1: Amy Ippoliti
    Aug 17 2020
    Between the inhale and the exhale there is a pause that the yogi's call, "kumbhaka."The first three episodes of the Warrior One Podcast revolve around a yoga training that occurred the weekend of March 14th in Boulder, Colorado. That weekend became the pause between the pre-pandemic world, and the world we live in now.The training was led by two highly respected western yoga teachers. Amy Ippoliti is an American yoga teacher, author, and earth conservationist, and she is the featured interview on this episode. Manorama is a world-renowned authority on Sanskrit, and a brilliant yoga philosophy teacher. She is featured in Episode 2.Warrior One Podcast host Derek Pashupa Goodwin. Pashupa had interviewed Amy and Manorama separately before he knew about the training . The goal was a podcast in classic interview format, focused on finding meaning and abundance in life by following one's own true path.As the world changed, the goals of the podcast grew.Pashupa realized that his future was bringing his past into perspective. There was a synchronicity of being in a training during the uncertainty of the Kumbhaka, with the two teachers he had previously interviewed. He interviewed a third guest who was present at the training, Reggie Hubbard, a political activist whose presence ended up being an integral part of the training.With three interviews spanning time, Pashupa realized there was a trilogy that allowed for the exploration of past, present, and future. In quarantine, he found himself reconnecting with his love of music and writing, and decided to expand the scope of the podcast by bringing in storytelling and original music.In this episode we explore the past, re-imagining the interview with Amy from a future perspective. Is time linear, or does the future inform the past? How do we create meaning? How do we best live this one, wild and mysterious life?ABOUT AMY IPPOLITIAmy Ippoliti is the co-founder of 90 Monkeys, an online school for advanced yoga education. Amy has studied yoga for over 30 years and has been teaching since 1997. In 2013, Amy embarked on a journey with her partner, Taro Smith, to inspire and raise awareness for marine conservation by training underwater so she could be photographed practicing yoga with large marine animals such as whale sharks, manta rays, humpback whales, and dolphins. These awe-inspiring viral images are helping to spark action to protect marine wildlife.Amy and Taro co-authored an essential book for yoga teachers, "The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga."Amy sings on the Krishna Das albums Breath of the Heart, All One, and Rock in a Hard Space.CHAPTERS:[00:00:00] Intro (Intro Music by Pashupa)[00:02:05] Kumbhaka[00:06:43] Amy as a Girl[00:10:21] Krishna Das[00:15:35] From NYC to Colorado[00:19:16] Love and Collaboration (TARO SMITH)[00:23:42] The Physics of Time[00:25:18] 90 Monkeys: The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga[00:31:31] Mixing Yoga and Money[00:36:36] Svadyaya!
