We head out to the rolling hills of northern Baltimore County for a visit to Five Seeds Farm.  Founder Denzel Mitchell has cultivated an environmentally and financially sustainable farm and apiary, and along the way he’s taught his five kids some important lessons in self-reliance, entrepreneurship, and good food.

We stroll around Reservoir Hill, a Baltimore community known for its fascinating history and architectural significance in a city of over 225 neighborhoods. 

Nancy Heneson joins the program with “Immortal,” the story of a soul (temporarily) without a body.

We’ve become a lot more sophisticated in our scientific knowledge about how we impact our environment, but forty years ago, we were like babes in the woods – littering, polluting babes in the woods, blissfully ignorant of the damage we were capable of causing Mother Nature.

November 16th & 17th, 2012, on The Signal:  

We visit a nearly forgotten cemetery on the grounds of the now-shuttered Crownsville State Hospital, where patients buried their own.  Historian Janice Hayes-Williams walks us through the gravesite, and tells the story of the institution originally named, ‘The Hospital for the Negro Insane.’  We also talk with Paul Lurz, who worked inside Crownsville for 40 years.

Dan Fesperman talks about his latest book, “The Double Game.” The book has been called a “love letter to the spy novel genre.”
