In this episode, we’re talking with Bizzy Coy and Teresa Tulipano from Yarnslingers — a Sullivan County showcase where writers perform powerful, memory-based stories drawn from their own lives.

Let’s take a cue from the trees.

In this episode, we meet Megan Offner—entrepreneur, designer, and co-founder of New York Heartwoods (NYH), a Hudson Valley circular wood products consultancy. With over 25 years in the design/build world, Megan has turned her passion for nature into a mission: helping architects, artists, and landowners transform fallen and removed trees into high-value furniture, building materials, and art. Her work sits at the intersection of forest conservation and craftsmanship, showing us how the wisdom of wood can reshape how we build, design, and live.

Join me as I talk with Pedro Boregaard, a master jeweler who worked with Tiffany before launching his own iconic brand. Now living with macular degeneration, he has embraced music as his form of self-expression. Together, we celebrate the release of his new EP, Traveling Light – as Pedro Travels with Triggs.

On this episode we talk about the need for collaborative teen, family and senior programming in rural communities with representatives from Tusten Social and the Cooperage Project. Learn more with Greta Knutsen, Amanda Masters and Ally Spaciano.

This week on Travel with Triggs, we journey beyond geography and into the heart of community. Host Triggs sits down with Thomas Cambridge, founder of Growing Old Together, a grassroots initiative reimagining what it means to age in place. From shared housing models to intergenerational support networks, Cambridge shares how his organization is helping seniors stay connected, independent, and empowered.

Our guest for this episode is Doug Wirth, the President and CEO of Amida Care, a Medicaid managed care Special Needs Health Plan designed to deliver specialized care to people affected by HIV. This nonprofit organization has empowered thousands of New Yorkers to take control of their health and get on with living their lives productively and well.

He is on the front lines of the current battles over Medicaid being discussed in Washington, D.C., and today he’s here to help us understand the best path forward for Medicaid, the health care crisis in America, and how it potentially affects us all.

Todd Stephens (Swan Song, Another Gay Movie, Edge of Seventeen) as he dives into his career, passion for storytelling, and the power of queer identity. From his rebellious spirit to his unique approach to filmmaking, Todd shares insights into his filmography and teases upcoming projects.
