Due to the government-shutdown emergency, your host was compelled to entertain an audience at the Old Schoolhouse Museum in Twentynine Palms with a series of Strange & Unusual Facts about our desert lands. Listen on IHeartRadio or Spotify or iTunes. Subscribe if you like it. And if you really like it, leave a review.
This was our final event on the Desert Oracle Performance Schedule. Thanks to everybody who came out to all of our events and live shows and Campfire Stories!
Who will protect the wilderness and public lands, our national parks and monuments, our nature preserves and conservation areas, our wild rivers and mountains and forests? As the nation slips into chaos and decline, we are going to have to take over the stewardship of lands and preserves that will have to survive not just this government but all future governments, of whatever sort.
Listen with your favorite podcast service, maybe Spotify? Maybe iTunes? Listen live on KCDZ 107.7 FM in Joshua Tree and across the Mojave High Desert—from Amboy to Zzyzx. In fact you are going to hear a very raw & early edit of this program on the radio, because we weren’t quite done by the time it was due at the station this afternoon. Pounding on the table with fists and the whole thing, what’s wrong with us.
Come to the Old Schoolhouse Museum in lovely 29 Palms, Calif., on Friday, Feb. 8 for strange desert tales from Ken Layne, editor, publisher & host of the Desert Oracle family of media & entertainment properties.

What happens when a civilization collapses? You can’t go camping in Joshua Tree, that’s what. The national parks are overrun with cretins of both varieties: the willful & the dumb. Well, maybe there’s somewhere else to go, somewhere without ticket booths and reserved campgrounds. Yes we are going to Mojave Trails National Monument and that means Route 66 and the alphabet-railroad towns.
