The Longwave Home

What this episode covers

Episode 4: A Self-Portrait, A Ukulele & Old RogerWhat does it mean to create something… and then recognize yourself inside it?In this episode of The Longwave Home, we spend time with Nevada County artists—people who live inside the act of making… and unmaking… and making again. Through three conversations, we explore creativity not as a skill, but as a way of seeing… a way of becoming… a way of Life.And in Free River, creativity means different things depending on where you’re standing.For some, it’s a song taking shape in real time… a ukulele, a voice, a question that hasn’t quite found its answer yet. For others, it’s quieter… more personal. A moment of recognition. A shift in perspective. A self-portrait that isn’t painted, but realized… when Jake begins to see his sibling not as who they were, but as who they’ve been all along.And somewhere along the riverbank… there’s Old Roger. Still playing. Still reminding us that what we set out to create… and what we actually create… are rarely the same thing.This is an episode about that space in between… where identity, expression, and accident meet.No formulas. No instructions.Just the work. And the people who can’t seem to stop doing it.THE LONGWAVE HOMEEPISODE #04 - 04.21.26“A Self-Portrait, A Ukulele & Old Roger“Performed by The Free River Players Composed & Directed by d’PhilipProduced & Engineered by Griffin RodriguezExecutive Producers Kelly & Margaret ChalmersDedication: This episode is dedicated to the human virtue of being creative in the way only a human being can be… Be Creative!Music Included;“In The City” Composed by Gino Gavoni, Performed by The 21st Century Flight “Give a Little Bit”, “Dreamer”, “The Logical Song”, and “The Long Way Home”Composed by (Nevada County’s Own) Roger Hodgeson, Performed by Supertramp“You’re There” Composed and performed by Maggie Chalmers, Lyrics by d’Philip Incidental Music by The d’Philiharmonius Orchstrange.Dannah Fournier Social Media:https://www.instagram.com/_cosmo.cutie_?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==https://www.instagram.com/atelier_fournier?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Keegan Hovanski Social Media:https://www.instagram.com/theazrielcollection?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Gino Gavoni Social Media:www.taptunes.comThe Longwave Home Contact:https://www.dphilip.com/longwave-homeLEGAL NOTICEAll music, historical recordings, and third-party sound elements appear with permission of their respective copyright holders or are used under the principles of fair use for purposes of commentary, education, criticism, or historical context.All trademarks, logos, and brand names remain the property of their respective owners.This production contains original commentary, narrative, and creative material © 2026 d’Philip & The Family Chalmers Consortium.All rights reserved.www.dphilip.comA final transmission from the far side of memory and imagination. The Longwave Home is a meditative, musical, time-bending journey through the exploration of human virtues, of lived experiences, and the long, strange arc of a life still unfolding.
