It’s been a minute but we're back with Episode 2. In this episode, host Lenny Carpenters talks about the podcast logo and its design, how he chose “Apisheesh” for the name, and his Cree language learning progress.
He chats with guest Jocelyn Cheechoo, who is a Cree language learner from Moose Cree First Nation currently based in Thunder Bay. Jocelyn talks about growing up in Moose Factory, going out on the land, and competing at the North American Indigenous Games (and later becoming the Team Ontario manager).
