696. How did a 19th-century merchant rebuild his life after the War of 1812 and use his fortune to secretly transform the city of New Orleans? We're joined by author Audrey Ades to talk about her picture book biography, Judah Touro Didn't Want to Be Famous. We dive into Judah’s quiet legacy of stealth philanthropy, the importance of bringing unsung Jewish historical figures to young readers, and the timeless lesson of helping others without needing acclaim. Ades is a children's book author with a passion for uncovering overlooked historical figures and bringing meaningful, character-driven stories to young readers. Known for her thoughtful approach to themes of community, social justice, and Jewish history, she specializes in translating complex historical legacies into accessible narratives for children.

In 1699, eighteen years after La Salle had demonstrated the connection of the Mississippi with the Gulf of Mexico, by passing out at its mouth, Iberville succeeded in entering it from the Gulf. Ascending as far as the junction of Red River, he returned, and proceeded, by way of the Gulf, into Lake Pontchartrain. He formed a settlement and erected a fort, at Biloxi, which he left under the command of his brother Bienville, while he returned to France, to induce others to join the colony. Soon after he left, the new commander ascended the Mississippi as far as the present site of New Orleans. In returning, he met a British vessel of sixteen guns, under the command of Capt. Bard, who enquired the bearings of the great river, intimating that it was his intention to establish a colony upon its banks. Bienville, in reply, directed him to go farther west, and thus induced him to turn about; from which circumstance, the place of their meeting was called “The English Turn,” a name which it retains to this day.

The clothes we inherit, covet, purchase, borrow, wear, store, destroy, or give away are intricately woven into our ideas about who we are and how we relate to others and the world around us. Clothes are things that can console us or trouble us. They can be objects buoyant with cherished memories and self-affirming associations—or weighed down with loss, disappointment, or other difficult feelings. Sometimes, they can be both at once.Dressays (Bloomsbury Visual Arts, 2026) is a new collection of essays about dress just out with Bloomsbury. Edited by the feminist media scholar Dr Rosie Findlay, Senior Lecturer in Media at City, University of London, it's a rich and idiosyncratic book that carefully attends to everyday practices of dress as they connect to emotion, memory, imagination, and experience.Diverse in its approach to dress—including clothing as well as jewellery, wigs, prosthetics, and other garments that we wear close to the skin—Dressays also brings together an array of writing styles and voices. These beautifully written essays bridge the personal and the theoretical as they seek to find language to express the complicated meanings we invest (or discover) in our clothes.For the New Books Network, Rosie chats with Alix Beeston—one clothes-lover to another—about her approach to dress, the practicalities of crafting an anthology of new and existing works, the realities of obsessive, tenacious research practices (which may or may not be slightly “unhinged”!), and the value of scholarship as a form of collective dialogue that invites readers along to the party.Passionate and insightful at each turn, Rosie also offers some courageous and moving reflections about the influence on her life and work of her mum Sarah, who died shortly before Dressays was published and to whom it's dedicated with love. Dressays emerges as a powerful testament to Sarah's—and Rosie's—ability to bring together people as well as they do outfits. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I spent two weeks in this un-GPSable St. Landry Parish village, where my cell phone didn't work, where there were no streetlights, where everyone woke at sunrise, where everyone identified you by who your parents or grandparents were.    It had been nearly eight years since I had last visited my familial land; then due to tragedy — and now due to tragedy.    After the funeral services at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, founded in 1897 by the Josephite Fathers and widely referred to as LeBeau church, the kinfolk made a pilgrimage to Uncle Will's house to pay respects beyond the gravesite.    In the diminutive country cemetery where so many of my ancestors rest — Bush, Romar, Rideau — I snapped pictures of headstones: my maternal grandfather's grandfather, Oscar Bertrand, to whom everyone says my mother bears a remarkable resemblance; my paternal grandfather, Bean, who was a World War II Veteran and school bus driver; and my uncle, June, his son, who served in the Vietnam War. In my family, nicknames are better known and used than given names. This week in Louisiana history. September 11, 1722.

Today, we remember the 25th anniversary of the attacks of September 11th, 2001. In this episode, we'll revisit powerful reflections from some of our remembrance episodes over the years, honoring those who served, those who sacrificed, and those we lost that morning. But first, we'll hear from retired FDNY Firefighter Jim McNamara as he reflects on what September 11th means to those who were there and what it means to remember, 25 years later.       Music: The Parting Glass by Alexander Nakarada (https://creatorchords.com)Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

317-1: SATB SPECIAL: Badfinger/Iveys Reissue Series with Mark Strothmann   Beatles proteges Badfinger released six studio albums between 1970 and 1974. Two of their hits were produced by Beatles (“Come and Get It” by Paul, “Day After Day” by George) and another by The Beatles' road manager (“No Matter What” was produced by Mal Evans). But their catalog is filled with rich, tuneful pop/rock for anyone who hasn't already explored it. ALL FOUR members (Pete Ham – Tom Evans – Mike Gibbins – Joey Molland) were accomplished songwriters and since their demise, an astonishing array of releases has been pouring out, including several demo collections from Pete. Additionally, their earlier pre-Joey iteration as The Iveys has seen the commencement of five Anthology collections of demos and live material surface, including the newest, Miniskirts and Rainbows. 2024 saw the long-awaited issue of the final Badfinger album from 1974, Head First, featuring Pete, Tom and Mike with Bob Jackson.  For this conversation, I spoke with Mark Strothmann, who's part of team that's been working on getting these treasures to the public, as well as curating several YouTube channels featuring music and videos of The Iveys and Badfinger. It's an overview of the ongoing labor of love keeping the group alive in the wake of Joey's passing last year.  The post 317-1: SATB SPECIAL: Badfinger/Iveys Reissue Series with Mark Strothmann appeared first on Something About The Beatles.

694. Shreveport in the 1980s and 1990s. In the heart of the Deep South, silence was deadly — until a small group of ordinary people decided to fight back. Join us for a conversation with David Hylan, the award-winning filmmaker and author who just released the book, Small Town Rage: Fighting Back in the Deep South. His 2016 documentary of the same name first brought national attention to ACT UP Shreveport, one of the smallest yet fiercest AIDS activist chapters in America. Now, with his powerful new book, Hylan expands that story, drawing on decades of interviews, archival research, and personal accounts to reveal the courage, grief, humor, and resilience of the activists who confronted hospitals that turned patients away, churches that preached judgment, and politicians who refused to listen. Far from the media spotlight of New York and San Francisco, these men and women forced northwest Louisiana to face the AIDS crisis head-on—and helped change the national conversation about compassion, healthcare, and equality in the process. This is the story of rage, resistance, and the power of ordinary people who refused to disappear. Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

We have the 1910 edition on our website -- all 400 pages, 2006 recipes, 300,000 words, it's a monument to Creole cooking of 110 years ago. We'll start with a Good Cup of Creole Coffee. Is there anything in the whole range of food substances to be compared with it? And is there any city in the world where coffee is so delightfully concocted as in New Orleans? Travelers the world over unite in praise of Creole Coffee, or 'Caf' ' la Cr'ole,' as they are fond of putting it. The Creole cuisinieres succeeded far beyond even the famous chefs of France in discovering the secret of good coffee-making, and they have never yielded the palm of victory. There is no place in the world in which the use of coffee is more general than in the old Creole city of New Orleans, where, from the famous French Market, with its world-renowned coffee stands, to the olden homes on the Bayou St. John, from Lake Pontchartrain to the verge of Southport, the cup of 'Caf' Noir,' or 'Caf' au Lait,' at morning, at noon and at night, has become a necessary and delightful part of the life of the people, and the wonder and the joy of visitors.

Important Quotes from the podcast on Business and Entrepreneurship   There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. - Naval Ravikant   You have to work up to the point where you can own equity in a business. You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company. Ownership is really important.     Everybody who really makes money at some point owns a piece of a product, a business, or some IP. That can be through stock options if you work at a tech company. That's a fine way to start.

Turn Your Podcast Into A Book Authority is not automatic. It happens through strategic intention and how you package your ideas for maximum impact with a podcast, a book and public speaking. In this episode, Erik K. Johnson welcomes Mila Johansen, bestselling author, master writing coach, and public speaking expert. Together, they reveal the system smart experts use to transform a podcast into a book, attract speaking gigs, and position themselves as go-to authorities in their niche.

Most podcasters let their shows collect dust. Mila lays out how to pull transcripts, clean them up, and repurpose them into one or more books, turning free content into premium curated value. - Repurposing is Authority, Not Just Recycling: Don't just push out more content. When you repackage episodes as books, summits, or speaking material, you provide convenience, clarity, and a reason for people to invest in your expertise. - Write Your Book Faster Than You Thought Possible: Mila's proven "write your short book in a day" method powers even non-writers to produce an Amazon-ready book quickly. Speaking your book via audio, then editing transcripts, can even bypass writer's block. - How Publishing a Book Opens Doors: A book gets you on stages, grows your list, and creates marketing synergy between all your platforms. Anthology books can be especially powerful and profitable for coaches and experts with a loyal audience. - Avoid the Ebook Trap: Mila warns not to launch with eBook only. The real authority (and client magnet) is the paperback or hardcover in someone's hand. Sequence your formats for sustained bestseller impact. - Turn Your Tribe Into an Authority Engine: Host your own anthology with your audience or client stories. Not only does this amplify your authority, it produces an income stream and an easy collaboration opportunity.   Episode Highlights: How Mila's theatrical background and family legacy shaped her visibility approach The secret to consistent writing for busy experts Real life examples of podcast-to-book and anthology success Strategies to monetize books, repurpose video, and drive list building How the Cinderella Monologues series created both impact and revenue A peek at the upcoming Cinderella Celebration Summit   Connect with Mila Johansen: Mila's Website: http://milajohansen.com Mila on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frompentopublished Mila on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mila-johansen-pentopublished/ Mila on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn6veUVpWR-lP1wUWlqYp-Q Mila on IG: https://www.instagram.com/pentopublished/ Mila on X: https://twitter.com/johansenmila   Podcast Authority Audit: Let me audit your podcast and find the gaps.

I believe it was Clay McLeod Chapman that recently said to me that if you're going to do vampires in your story, you have to find an original way to do it. Which admittedly in this day and age is a challenge. There are scant possibilities that have yet to be picked clean in books, film, etc.In The Instruction Manual to Being a Vampire, Craig took care to get it right, and do it his way. In this interview, he explains his process for arriving at including vampires in his story, and how to make them in a way that services the plot. Craig's take is very grounded and interesting. I think he made Clay proud. It's a great book, and we talk about it at great length in this chonky interview. I know it's a long one, but me and Craig go back 15 years, so there's going to be some nostalgia, yeah? That nostalgia took shape as a reflection on an anthology that Craig was in called Warmed and Bound, and also the anthology I published - The Booked. Anthology. We look at the powerhouse lineup that Warmed and Bound had, and ruminate on the good old days. For those of you who are new to Craig Wallwork, he has a fantastic trilogy of dark detective novels that I loved and you should check those out as well. I've gathered a list of books by Craig you can buy on my Bookshop page.For the folks who prefer YouTube: This is a public episode.

STRANGE MYSTERIES Episode #22 - TIME SLIPS with Steve Stockton - Pull your chair a little closer to the hearth, neighbor, and let the firelight chase the shadows back into the corners of the room. You've tuned into another broadcast of STRANGE MYSTERIES. We like to think of time as a steady, mechanical ticking—a straight line pulling us safely from yesterday into tomorrow. It feels orderly. It feels civilized. But what happens when that machinery breaks down? What happens when a quiet country lane, a towering cathedral, or a lonely desert highway suddenly forgets what century it belongs to? In this complete, ten-part anthology, we are stepping off the paved roads of history and wandering straight into the impossible. From the manicured gardens of royal France and the yellow squalls over the Scottish coast, to the plague-hollows of rural England and the scorching copper haze of Arizona—these are the thoroughly documented accounts of ordinary folks who took a wrong turn and fell straight through the calendar. Wrap your coat tight, watch your step in the dark, and enjoy the broadcast. If you find yourself enjoying the warmth of the fire, be sure to subscribe and share this episode with another traveler.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/missing-persons-mysteries--5624803/support.

My First Days in the White House.     Today extreme inequalities in the distribution of wealth have closed the doors of opportunity to millions of our children.     Education is a function which the states can handle adequately only if helped by the federal government, and the government ought to see that such benefits of education are extended to all classes of citizens; but here in our beloved America we find inequalities in the benefits of the public schools. Some children are given excellent educational facilities in great, sanitary buildings with ample equipment, with well-fed, well-trained teachers. Other children have poor educational facilities, unsanitary buildings, meager equipment,untrained, poorly-paid teachers. The bitter fruits of these inequalities of opportunity, which endure for generations, must and shall be corrected. This week in Louisiana history. August 14, 1903.

Cricket attracts romantics. Whatever the form, so much of the game's prose is dedicated to reflection and understanding. Whilst many fine writers have penned creative words, poetry isn't as strongly associated. Catching The Light, compiled by authors Nick Hogg and Tim Beard, spans a wide range of contributors, from England's John Arlott to Guyana's John Agard, through to Tim Key and Zaffar Kunial of the modern day. From the joy of taking a single catch to references to the 9/11 terror attacks, the subjects are diverse and intriguing.

Pritzker Military Library D Day Anthology.  

Four Roses Anthology is an ultra-premium annual bourbon collection that recently saw its first release which is called Chapter One: Origin and the liquid in the bottle is 21-years old. Pulled from a variety of single barrels and priced at $500 - this stands as the oldest release in the distillery's history. If you've been paying attention, then you know we already did a fresh crack of this on YouTube. However, we wanted to put this bourbon through it's paces. Therefore, in this episode, we blind it against King of Kentucky, Russell's 15, Austin Nichols Archives Gold Foil, and an old Elijah Craig Batch 10 Barrel Proof (pirate bottle). What will come out on top? You've have to listen to find out. -------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyJoin our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcastPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!
