There’s an old saying,” home is where the heart is” and Katie Baggs can definitley relate to that.
Someone who is known on the local music scene for her involvement in poetry, visual arts and most recently music, Katie is now planted firmly back home after a teaching stint in Vancouver.
With a positive response from her band,” All The Wiles” CD,” Painted”, Katie has just released her own solo CD entitled,”Home Again, Home Again”.

WAM July 21-22 Shipwrecks

Now avid divers, historians and others have formed a new organization. It’s the Shipwreck Preservation Society of Newfoundland and Labrador. One of the people heading up the new organizrion is Neil Burgess.

WAM July 21-22 Joan Clarke
Joan Clark says hr greatest fear would be not being able to write any more. Clark has written numerous books - her early works were mostly for children and young adults. As well as short stories. But there have been novels, such as Eriksdottir, An Audience of Chairs, Lattitudes of Melt and Road to Bliss. All have won Joan Clark critical praise. But Clark has also enjoyed the role of mentor to other writers. And she’ll get to that this fall when she takes up the writer in residence position at the University of New Brunswick.

WAM July 21-22 Gerry Squires
Gerry Squires has come a long way in the art world since those fourteen years he spent living at the lighhouse in Ferryland. A lot of honours and accolades have been bestowed on the artist….. Perhaps best known for his depictions of the beauty found in the rugged often harsh landscape of Newfoundland. But Squires says it was at Ferryland lighthouse - during those years as a struggling painter with a young family - that he developed into the artist he has become today.

WAM July 21-22 Jackie Hynes
It's unblieveably hard to get the resources to mount a film. Money is scarce and getting scarcer. So, it's understament to say Jackie Hynes was thrilled when she got the call. Jackie has been chose as the third winner of the RBC Michelle Jackson Award. The award comes with 40-grand - in cash and in kind - to be put towards a film project. I wanted to know more about what Jackie plans to do with her big win. So I invited her to come into our Weekend AM studio.

WAM July 21-22 Nicole Underhay
Here's some of what critics are saying about Newfoundland's own Nicole Underhay at the Shaw Festival at Niagara-on-theLake: The Ottawa Citizen called Underhay's - Hildy - smart, sassy, and sexy. Saying it's glory time for Underhay in the uproarious production of Shaw's "His Girl Friday". The Niagara Falls Review called her fierce and funny and the Toronto Star called her a dazzling supernova for the role in another Shaw play, "The Millionaress". The Globe and Mail was not so kind, but laid the blame at the feel of George Bernard Shaw for his writing. One thing is for sure, Nicole Underhay is on one wild ride. I caught up with the busy actor at Niagara-on-the-Lake.

WAM July 14-15 Liner Notes Dana Parsons
Dana Parsons will take the stage Saturday July 21st at the Rock House to release her brand new CD," Within The Light".
It's been five years since Dana's debut release, "It's You Not Me" and it's safe to say that Dana has grown musically since that time.
In those five years Dana has been perfoming up to five shows a day on different cruise lines all over the world. Here at home she has dominated in Music NL's awards and she was winner of CBC's Galaxie Rising Star award.
In between gigs and accepting awards Dana has been working away on her new CD," Within the Light". But the songs did not come easy.

WAM July 14-15 Jerry Pocius
We're losing the art of conversation. Nobody talks to eachother any more.
How many times do you hear that?
That behaviour is something folklore professor Jerry Pocius observes daily.
He's also observing the results in the lack of proper interviewing skills in students.
So, in order to get back to the basics of conversing and observing that is at the heart of folkloric research, the iphones, Blackberries, all those electronic gadgets will have to go.
Fo three weeks, anyway.
It's a pilot project Pocius starts in the fall semester.
That's when seven of his students will go offline in Keels, Bonavista Bay, for a crash course in meeting people, talking to them and documenting it.

WAM July 14-15 Brad Peyton
Five years ago Brad Peyton headed to Hollywood and it's been upward for the young director ever since.
He's got a string of directing credits under his belt...
Including the multi-million-dollar movie "Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore and "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" - an adventure film in a fantasy world inspired by Jules Verne, the science fiction pioneer.
Now Brad Peyton has just signed another deal to do a sequel to Journey 2 - Journey 3.
But that's not all he's doing.
Warner Brothers has brought him on board to direct its screen adaptation of "Lobo", a story based on a character in a DC comic.

WAM jULY 14-15 Peter Walsh
A new documentary is bringing to life a story that's part of the fabric of this place.
The Portguese fishermen and the White fleet on which they sailed into St. John's.
For hundreds of years the Portuguese fished the Grand Banks.
Often taking shelter from storms and gales in a welcoming port.
Now that story is being brought to life with one of the last remaining ships in the White Fleet - the Santa Maria Manuela.
Peter Walsh's film, "Return of the White Fleet" airs next week on CBC Television in Newfoundland and Labrador.
I asked Peter into our studio to tell me about it.

WAM July 7-8 Shakespeare By The Sea
It looked like the season was in jeopardy. Shakespeare by the Sea is a community theatre troupe that doesn’t have huge resources. But because of the kindness of supporters the 20th season is opening tonight at bannerman Park in St. John’s. I stopped by the park where the cast was rehearsing their production of the Shakespearean play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

WAM July 7-8 Vokey's Boat
It's not every day a schooner is launched any more. In fact it's a part of our culture that might have disappeared altogether if not for master boat builder Henry Vokey. Vokey's name is no stranger to boat building in this province. And at 82, he's been hard at work preparing for today, the schooner's launch. Henry Vokey joins me this morning over the phone.

WAM June30-July 1 Dr. Mark Humphries
On July 1, 1916, the collective heart of this then-tiny country was broken. As 801 young men from the First Newfoundland Regiment went forward at Beaumont Hamel in the Battle of the Somme. They didn’t stand a chance under fire from the germeans. Consequently only 68 surviving to answer roll call the next day. Much has been said, much has been written about this day. But it bears discussing again, and again, lest we forget. Dr. Mark Humphries is a professor at Memorial University who specializes in canadain military history. He has specific expertise in the First World War and beaumont Hamel.

WAM June 30-July 1 Chris Brookes
When it comes to what makes a good documentary, Chris Brookes knows a thing or two. He’s won dozens of awards for his own work spanning decades. Now Chris is engaged in a project where he’s curating the best documentaries he can find globally about the destruction of fish stocks throughout the world. The Community University Research for Recovery Alliance - CURRA - is designing a website where you can go to watch and hear some of the best work found anywhere on the subject. This is to coincide with the Fishing For the Future Film Festival that Barbara Neis and Ruth Lawrence told us about a few weeks ago.

WAM June 30-July 1 Rex Murphy
He’s be the first one to tell you he left, physically. But he never really left. But recently Rex Murphy travelled around the province to make a documentary looking at this place 20 years after the bottom fell completely out of our culture-defining, seemingly- indestructible fishery, the northern cod fishery. For over 5 centuries cod was at our core. The smell of money. But today - if money has a distinct odour - it is more likely to be that of oil. All these factors play into the documentary Rex Murphy is preparing for this week on The national.
