Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Bob Muckle, whose book, "Once Upon This Land: Archaeology in British Columbia and the Stories it Tells" was recently published by UBC Press in Vancouver, British Columbia. Robert J. "Bob" Muckle has been an archaeologist and educator in British Columbia for decades. His new book provides a comprehensive look at key archaeological sites in the province that illuminate thousands of years of history, and he takes time to define important terms and explain the evolution of archaeology in recent years, including working more closely with Indigenous peoples and BC's many First Nations. In our conversation, we go deep on a few particular stories, including ancient footprints along the BC coast, and very recent studies of "artifacts" left behind on the streets of Vancouver, BC during the COVID-19 pandemic.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we present archival audio from a November 13, 2024 live remote radio broadcast from Alki on a dark and rainy morning in West Seattle. The broadcast marked the 173rd anniversary of the arrival of the Denny Party - the founders of the City of Seattle. Feliks Banel's guest is Ken Workman, whose great-great-great-great grandfather is Chief Seattle of the Duwamish and Suquamish. FELIKS BANEL: “What does Seattle Founders’ Day mean to you, and is it right to observe or commemorate this day?” KEN WORKMAN: “It’s sort of a sorrowful day, in that our world has changed. For thousands and thousands of years, we’ve lived alongside nature, and then these newcomers came at the invitation of my grandfather, Seattle. And so, as far as Founders’ Day in Seattle, this place is so new, it’s a wonderful thing, but it’s also kind of a sad thing."

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Jason Miller, publisher and editor of The CONCRETE HERALD newspaper in Concrete, Washington. Miller provides an update on a debate in Concrete about the future of the office building of the old Superior Cement Company, a historic structure on the west end of Concrete just north of State Route 20. A private business operator wants to buy the building and the real estate and restore the building for commercial use; some Concrete citizens want the city to retain ownership of the building and the real estate, which currently function somewhat like a public park. The issue was discussed at a city council meeting on Monday, November 10, 2025, and a public meeting will be held by the Concrete Chamber of Commerce at the Concrete Theatre on Thursday, November 13, 2025 at 6pm. In this episode, Miller reports on what happened at Monday's official meeting, and previews what may happen at Thursday's quasi-official meeting.

Courtney Cooper Neese joined CASCADE OF HISTORY and told the story of purchasing the Roslyn Theatre just four years ago, and how she's focused on being a "guardian of the culture" - and history - of a beloved community resource, from limiting changes to the look and feel of the interior, to learning how to make "gravy style" popcorn.

Mr. Menzies recounts the Nootka Crisis – a clash between the Spanish and the British on the northern coast of what’s now Vancouver Island - in the late 18th century. But, he also focuses on the somewhat forgotten business venture of “Trading Fate’s” subtitle – the King George's Sound Company - which was deeply entwined with what happened at Nootka, and with what ultimately happened between diplomats sorting things out between Madrid and London.

On this CLAMMY and FISHY BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel (clam)digs into the audio archives to tell the twisted tale of the Ivar’s Billboard Hoax, aka "Underwatergate." Though, once you've listened, it may have you wondering if there was ever hoax at all, or if it was actually some kind of elaborate coverup. In 2009, Seattle-based Ivar’s seafood restaurants released a series of videos documenting the search for and discovery of UNDERWATER BILLBOARDS in Puget Sound. As the story goes, they were placed in the 1950s by restaurateur and showman Ivar Haglund to reach burgeoning submarine traffic. The 2009 undersea search was all very exciting, and many were completely hooked. But then, Jim Dever, with KING 5's Evening Magazine at the time - and still a great friend of CASCADE OF HISTORY - had the exclusive exposé, produced in cooperation with Ivar’s, and featuring Ivar’s CEO Bob Donegan. As Dever's report made it seem, the whole thing was a brilliant stunt that fooled a lot of people - but it angered a few, too, who thought Ivar's had gone too far. Fast forward to November 2015, and naïve history radio correspondent Feliks Banel set out to tell the backstory with help from Paul Dorpat. Dorpat is a beloved historian - and friend and biographer of Ivar - who had served as official historian of the vintage underwater billboard hunt. When the hoax had been revealed in 2009, Dorpat – longtime author of the weekly “Now & Then” history column - was criticized by many, and even temporarily suspended by The Seattle Times for his role in the stunt. As you listen to Paul Dorpat's 2015 version of events, try to keep clam.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Lloyd Lytle, a leader of the grassroots group working to prevent demolition of the historic Masonic Home of Washington in Des Moines, Washington. Lytle’s group is called Citizens for the Protection of Des Moines Historic Resources.
