The birdbath balanced on a tree stump. The chainsaw-carved mascot. The rusted farm equipment standing sentinel at a property line. The toilet (yes, the toilet) overflowing with wisteria.We call it yard art. But it's something older than that.In this episode, we take a walk through one neighborhood and discover that every repurposed object on every lawn is making the same argument: I belong to this place, and this place belongs to me. From the folk impulse to reach toward nature, to material culture as community storytelling, to the toilet as territorial poetry: It all adds up to one of the most human things we do with our junk.It's definitely a folk thing.----------Music Credits-------------Intro music: Humorous and Comic Intro By Free Music — soundcloud.com/fm_freemusic Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Available at: chosic.com/download-audio/27133/ Music promoted by Chosic","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/VHnpth7ZRPHYvXx9YgSA0eDlq7Wl5Gh8rq6gfxc9WDU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jODlj/ODY2NDk0MjVjNGFh/NmQxY2NmZDdlZjk3/MzI3YS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
