MUG UP WITH BBNC
A podcast about Bristol Bay communities, cultures, and the stories that connect us
“Mug Up” is special in Bristol Bay, and a tradition in fishing communities. It’s a break for a warm drink and a short visit.
Hosted by Bristol Bay Native Corporation’s Communications team, this virtual “Mug Up” brings the community together to talk about our connections, cultures, and the stories that connect us.
We’re inspired to enrich and celebrate our Native way of life—today and for generations to come. This podcast offers another way to share our values and stories with our community and beyond.

Bears, Berries, and Lessons from Chignik Lake
In this episode we sit down with shareholder Brenda King of Chignik Lake!
Brenda reflects on the lessons she learned from leaving home and returning as an adult, sharing stories about life, community, and subsistence.
“Learn, learn respect and try to hold on to more of the old ways, because the value you get from living in that kind of culture, there’s just so much history there. And you know, what the Elders and our ancestors before, what they did in the communities, they had it so much harder. But what they did with what little they had, we could learn a lot from that.”
