Join us for a mesmerizing deep dive into the spiritual realms of the Pacific Northwest in this unforgettable episode! We sit down with Thomas (Tom) Sewid, the renowned Kwakwaka’wakw/Cree knowledge keeper, Native Watchman, Sasquatch investigator, and founder of the popular Sasquatch Island community. From his home on Vancouver Island and the rugged Broughton Archipelago, Tom brings decades of firsthand cultural insight, traditional storytelling, and personal encounters that bridge the seen and unseen worlds.In this powerful conversation, Tom illuminates the profound Native American significance of killer whales (orcas)—known in Kwakwaka’wakw tradition as Max’inux—as more than majestic ocean predators. He reveals how these beings are revered as leaders, guardians, and the transformed spirits of ancestors who have passed on, carrying their wisdom and protective presence into the undersea realm.Listen as Thomas shares his awe-inspiring personal experiences swimming with these incredible creatures, the deep connections he’s forged in the wild, and the spiritual bonds that link Native culture to the ocean’s most intelligent residents. From ancient legends to living traditions, discover how orcas embody family, harmony, protection, and the eternal cycle of life—watchers and guides who continue to look after their people from beneath the waves.Whether you’re drawn to Indigenous knowledge, marine mysteries, or soul-stirring stories of interconnection, this episode will leave you with a renewed sense of wonder and respect for the natural and spiritual worlds we share.

They were young, dumb, and full of it. What followed were comedy shows so explicit, “genitalia” was practically a term of endearment.Fast forward 5 dogs, 6 cats, and way too many weird inside jokes later, Sasha and Joe are no longer young or dumb—but they’re still brimming with you-know-what. Here, they’ve teamed up to bring you a podcast where they interview a guest who passionately defends something universally hated, misunderstood, forgotten, overlooked, Mandela-effected, canceled—you name it. The key? They LOVE it. From toupees... to B-movies... to aliens, psychedelics, and the occasional surprise character, Sasha and Joe are here to spread love to the world that birthed them (but maybe should’ve used protection).So come and get that love because no one else will give it to you like we do.Also, don’t forget to check out the Patreon Bonus version of the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItP Explicit The New Marketing Show Trinity Web Media The New Marketing Show by Trinity Web Media discusses how we as marketers are problem solvers.
