Michael Lyons is the creator of the puppet podcast Boozhoo Nanaboozhoo. This year, he's creating videos for KAXE/KBXE. We'll learn Ojibwe culture and language and get to see for ourselves the wonderful relationship of Natasha and Nanaboozhoo.

Today Natasha teaches us the Ojibwe words for Northern Lights. "Jiibayag Niimi'idiwag" or Spirits Dancing.
