Eclipse Reactions

You’ll hear in-the-moment reactions about the April 8th total solar eclipse in Maine from folks in Stacyville, Houlton, and Jackman Maine, and then we’ll circle back to Stacyville for some short conversations right after the eclipse.

We are indebted to Sarah Kirn, Nikita Saini, and Terrence Finnegan for their willingness to record audio, and Jennifer Dann for her encouragement and great questions. And a giant thank you in particular to Patrick Taylor for letting me experience the eclipse in what may have been the best possible location I could have imagined at his Katahdin View Camps & Campground in Stacyville.

These reactions were recorded in April 2024.
