Episode 3Trailer: Answering a couple questions I’m often asked; prepping for release of Podcast Episode 3...Cinch Knot: "The Plot to Nuke the Trans Alaska Pipeline"...
Hello, I’m Scott Walden your host of the “Wisdom of the Donut Hole” Podcasts by Ugly Moose Alaska Publishing. It’s the podcast about books by True to Life Alaska Crime Author Ron Walden. We want to thank you for reading the books and for Listening to our podcasts on your favorite platform!
I wanted to take a minute to answer a couple questions I’m often asked.
First, Why call a podcast about an Alaska Author The Wisdom of the Donut Hole?
Well, Ron’s a big believer in the meaning of The Wisdom of the Donut Hole. He encourages everyone to appreciate what they have, and to choose Optimism over Pessimism. It’s an old saying that goes like this:
AS YOU RAMBLE THROUGH LIFE, BROTHER, WHATEVER BE YOUR GOAL.
KEEP YOUR EYE UPON THE DOUGHNUT, AND NOT UPON THE HOLE.
Enjoy what you have and stay optimistic. Life’s more enjoyable that way.
So, Why Book Publishing And Podcasts By Ugly Moose Alaska?
Ugly Moose Alaska’s trademark and logo for products is a Musk Ox. Seen on business cards, banners, websites, brand items and book covers, the Ugly Moose trademark and logo causes people to take a second look. They ask questions like “Why is that Ugly Moose not a moose?”
It generates interest and opportunity to introduce folks to Ron’s books, where they find great stories and interesting information about Alaska. We enjoy sparking interest in visiting our amazing State.
Ugly Moose is a respectful translation of northern Alaskan and Canadian indigenous dialects, in which the term “Musk Ox” can be interpreted as “Ugly Moose”. Ancient animals with long, thick coats of hair hanging nearly to the ground, they appear Mammoth-like. Smaller than bison, they have horns that curl tightly against the sides of their large compact heads. The musky scent they exude adds to the name.
Brushed properly, the fine insulating fur deep in their coats is ultra soft and warm. Woven into a fine yarn-like material, called qiviut by indigenous experts, it’s the warmest, softest material from one of the toughest mammals to call Alaska’s frigid far-north home.
Ugly Moose are durable and protective of family. They’re Versatile, Stubborn and determined.
Ron’s friends will tell you “Ugly Moose Alaska” is the perfect name for his publishing and podcast and the moral of the Wisdom of the Donut Hole fits Ron perfectly.
