We at Across the Cline and SciComm@UCR, would like to respectfully acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of the land, water, and air on which we record this podcast: the Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano peoples and all of their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. This place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, including our colleagues, guests, and community, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands.

Both the words “jazz” and “anarchy” bring up ideas of chaos and disorder. But is jazz just “playing the wrong notes” and anarchy just “a lawless landscape?” Hey all you cool cats, today we are joined by two jazz musicians, Andrew Stevens and Joel Wenhardt, and author, activist and Professor of Environmental Studies at Georgetown University, Dr. Randall Amster, to listen to some jazz, chat about how leaders emerge, and patterns in chaos.
