In his compelling evaluation of Cold War popular culture, Pulp Vietnam: War and Gender in Cold War Men's Adventure Magazines (Cambridge UP, 2020), Gregory Daddis explores how men's adventure magazines helped shape the attitudes of young, working-class Americans, the same men who fought and served in the long and bitter war in Vietnam. The 'macho pulps' - boasting titles like Man's Conquest, Battle Cry, and Adventure Life - portrayed men courageously defeating their enemies in battle, while women were reduced to sexual objects, either trivialized as erotic trophies or depicted as sexualized villains using their bodies to prey on unsuspecting, innocent men. The result was the crafting and dissemination of a particular version of martial masculinity that helped establish GIs' expectations and perceptions of war in Vietnam. By examining the role that popular culture can play in normalizing wartime sexual violence and challenging readers to consider how American society should move beyond pulp conceptions of 'normal' male behavior, Daddis convincingly argues that how we construct popular tales of masculinity matters in both peace and war. Rebekah Buchanan is an Assistant Professor of English at Western Illinois University. Her work examines the role of narrative–both analog and digital–in people's lives. She is interested in how personal narratives produced in alternative spaces create sites that challenge traditionally accepted public narratives. She researches zines, zine writers and the influence of music subcultures and fandom on writers and narratives.

I'm thrilled to introduce you to Wendy H., an Ambassador high adventure troop leader from GS San Diego. Her troop has taken some incredible adventures, including backpacking in the Canadian Yukon, High Sierras, and this year, Mt. Whitney. She is also a certified canoe instructor and her troop has canoed parts of the Colorado River, kayaked in an Alaskan bay and whitewater rafted down the Kern River. The crazy part? She wasn't an experienced adventurer before becoming a troop leader - she built those skills right alongside her girls, and now, she's done things she previously wouldn't have even dreamed of. We hope this interview inspires you that you, too, can design a high adventure lifestyle as a Girl Scout Volunteer.

All summer long we've had a steady stream of guest drop by the Bone Cave and we've had a chance to sit on the porch and talk hunting and share stories. Today we welcome Ryan Martin who is an RBO Adventure Advisor who did not grow up in a hunting family but - thanks to encouragement from an unlikely source - has lived the adventure life. Ryan grew up in southwest Kansas where he says it was so flat you could “watch your dog run away for three days.” He then decided to conquer the three biggest obstacles that keep a lot of us from living the adventure lifestyle - lack of funds, fear of the unknown and the perception that you can't do it. Ryan shares his story and we hope it inspires you to follow in his footsteps.

"The whole point is to live life and be - to use all the colors in the crayon box." - RuPaul Lionel's story is exactly that. Forever in My Veins: How Film Led Me to the Mysterious World of the African Shaman, Amazon, compares to an Indiana Jones adventure – all films combined. What an extraordinary life! From the prologue: "Have you ever experienced an epiphany of discovery so profound that you are forever altered by the experience?" If so, you can relate. If not, Lionel has several stories from personal experience to offer an incentive to expand your horizons and open yourself up to new wonders. Consciousness is the connecting thread. He talks about some of the people he met when assigned to make a documentary that would offer proof of existence beyond death -those experiencers provide details that demonstrate life exists beyond the physical form. In the book, some of the most profound stories involve prophetic information given by various African Shamans that later played out exactly as it had been foretold. How they manage to determine that information is also fascinating! Additional content includes photos and covers his early childhood - an idyllic life in South Africa, his filmmaking history, extraordinary connections with animals, the call to preserve our natural environment, and the enigma of that which animates us all. Excerpt from the publisher: John Hunt Publishing Blog includes details about those predictions.     Amazon Review - Link Engrossing story of an amazing life Lionel Friedberg's "Forever in. My Veins" stands as a remarkable testament to personal voyages - within and without. Part exceedingly rich and wonderfully detailed autobiography and part meditation on the power of the spirit, I came away dazzled by the sheer quantity of unusual and profound life experiences that Mr. Friedberg has had. He brings a thoughtfulness and an honest, deep and probing perspective to all these experiences. His site. https://www.lionelfriedberg.com/ Wendy's blog: Link.

oven y talentosa. Versátil y bilingüe. Se podría seguir mencionando más calificativos para esta joven artista argentina, quien mezcla el pop con la música electrónica, lejos de los estilos convencionales. “Te voy a esperar” es el nuevo sencillo de Cindy, en el que combina elementos de la música electrónica y el pop. Para esta interpretación, contó con la participación de Kalein, un productor musical de respetable trayectoria internacional. Su mensaje destaca principios y valores en tiempos de tanta post verdad. Pero Cindy va en contra de esa corriente y entiende que hay que izar esa bandera para lograr una transformación verdadera de la sociedad. Con “Te voy a esperar”, la artista deja un claro mensaje relacionado con aprender a soportar la presión que impone el mundo en relación a la pareja. “Saber esperar es importante. No dejarse llevar por lo que hacen los demás. Aprender a soportar la presión del tiempo que nos quiere hacer correr y acelerar los procesos. Entender que hay un tiempo perfecto para todo, y que cada persona es diferente, por lo que el tiempo de cada uno, también es diferente”, afirma la cantautora en referencia a la temática de esta canción. Cindy ya viene desplegando su talento en las redes sociales, a través de canciones en español y en inglés, entre las que se destacan “As You Promised Me”, “Adventure Life”, “Home”, “Déjame Vivir” y “Sin Miedo”. Ahora, con “Te voy a esperar”, Cindy va dándole forma a su álbum. Por lo pronto, se puede escuchar su repertorio a través de las redes sociales y plataformas digitales. Sobre Cindy D'Amico Oriunda de la ciudad de Balcarce, provincia de Buenos Aires, Cindy demostró desde pequeña su vocación por las artes, junto a un fuerte ímpetu en levantar valores que afecten la sociedad, que ha canalizado tanto en su carrera de Licenciada en Relaciones Públicas, como también en su música y composiciones. En 2017 un Dj y productor guatemalteco la “descubrió” por sus videos musicales en YouTube, lo cual dio inicio al lanzamiento de su primera canción en inglés. Se destaca por ser una artista bilingüe. Sus canciones que han alcanzado gran popularidad son: “As You Promised Me”, “Adventure Life”, “Home”, “Déjame Vivir”, “Sin Miedo”, y la más reciente, “Te Voy a Esperar”. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

In his compelling evaluation of Cold War popular culture, Pulp Vietnam: War and Gender in Cold War Men's Adventure Magazines (Cambridge UP, 2020), Gregory Daddis explores how men's adventure magazines helped shape the attitudes of young, working-class Americans, the same men who fought and served in the long and bitter war in Vietnam. The 'macho pulps' - boasting titles like Man's Conquest, Battle Cry, and Adventure Life - portrayed men courageously defeating their enemies in battle, while women were reduced to sexual objects, either trivialized as erotic trophies or depicted as sexualized villains using their bodies to prey on unsuspecting, innocent men. The result was the crafting and dissemination of a particular version of martial masculinity that helped establish GIs' expectations and perceptions of war in Vietnam. By examining the role that popular culture can play in normalizing wartime sexual violence and challenging readers to consider how American society should move beyond pulp conceptions of 'normal' male behavior, Daddis convincingly argues that how we construct popular tales of masculinity matters in both peace and war. Rebekah Buchanan is an Assistant Professor of English at Western Illinois University. Her work examines the role of narrative–both analog and digital–in people's lives. She is interested in how personal narratives produced in alternative spaces create sites that challenge traditionally accepted public narratives. She researches zines, zine writers and the influence of music subcultures and fandom on writers and narratives.
