This week on Regional Roundup, we hear about the intense Logan to Jackson bike race, a vintage car rally in Colorado, and an Indigenous art exhibit inspired by Star Wars. Plus, we hear from the best-selling author Bonnie Garmus during her visit to Colorado to accept the Freedom from Religion Foundation award. To finish up, we have a discussion with a former University of Colorado professor about the exciting future of doing science on the moon.

A runaway favourite of book clubs the world over, Bonnie Garmus's debut novel Lessons in Chemistry transports readers to early 1960s California. Elizabeth Zott – single mother and brilliant chemist – unexpectedly finds herself hosting a television cooking show, and changes hearts and minds in the process. Inspired by Garmus's mother's generation of overlooked and under-acknowledged women, Lessons in Chemistry examines the gender pay gap, misogyny in the workplace and women's rights. At her only Melbourne event on her first Australian tour, Garmus sits down with host Astrid Edwards to discuss her breakthrough novel. Together, they explore her funny and feisty heroine, the surprising fan phenomenon of Six-Thirty the dog, and how the novel's historical setting sheds light on the truths of today. This event was presented in partnership with RMIT Culture. It was recorded on May 21st 2024 at Melbourne Town Hall. The official bookseller was Readings. Featured music is ‘Traveling Again' by Sarah the Illstrumentalist.

Lesley talks about a bestselling fiction novel that was recently turned into an Apple TV series: Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus.

«Si un libro les aburre, déjenlo. No lo lean porque es famoso, no lean un libro porque es moderno, no lo lean porque es antiguo. Si un libro es tedioso para ustedes, déjenlo. Aunque ese libro sea El paraíso perdido (para mí no es tedioso) o El Quijote (que para mí tampoco es tedioso). Pero si hay un libro tedioso para ustedes, no lo lean. Ese libro no ha sido escrito para ustedes. La lectura debe ser una de las formas de la felicidad, de modo que yo aconsejaría a esos posibles lectores de mi testamento (que no pienso escribir), yo les aconsejaría que leyeran mucho, que no se dejaran asustar por la reputación de los autores, que sigan buscando una felicidad personal, un goce personal. Es el único modo de leer». Laura sigue el consejo de Borges en su librería Amapolas en Octubre. Ella receta los libros según las necesidades de cada paciente.

Math-ish: Finding Creativity, Diversity, and Meaning in Mathematics By Jo Boaler https://amzn.to/3QyFjeP From Stanford professor, author of Limitless Mind, youcubed.org founder, and leading expert in the field of mathematics education Jo Boaler comes a groundbreaking guide to finding joy and understanding by adopting a diverse approach to learning math. “Every once in a while, someone revolutionizes an approach to a difficult subject and changes it forever. That is what Jo Boaler has done for math. Fresh, smart, and inclusive, Jo Boaler's strategy eschews the one-size-fits-a-few approach and instead allows math to be seen and solved by everyone. A huge achievement. Math-ish is the only math book I've ever enjoyed reading in my entire life. Honestly.” -Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry Mathematics is a fundamental part of life, yet every one of us has a unique relationship with learning and understanding the subject. Working with numbers may inspire confidence in our abilities or provoke anxiety and trepidation. Stanford researcher, mathematics education professor, and the leading expert on math learning Dr. Jo Boaler argues that our differences are the key to unlocking our greatest mathematics potential. In Math-ish, Boaler shares new neuroscientific research on how embracing the concept of “math-ish”—a theory of mathematics as it exists in the real world—changes the way we think about mathematics, data, and ourselves. When we can see the value of diversity among people and multi-faceted approaches to learning math, we are free to truly flourish. Utilizing the latest research on math education, Jo guides us through seven principles that can radically reframe our relationship with the subject: • The power of mindset on learning • Utilizing a visual approach to math • The impact of physical movement and communication on understanding • Understanding the value of an "ish" perspective - in mathematics and beyond • The importance of connected and flexible knowledge • New data on diverse teaching modes that work with different learning styles, not against them • The value of diversity in learning mathematics—and beyond When mathematics is approached more broadly, inclusively, and with a greater sense of wonder and play—when we value the different ways people see, approach, and understand it—we empower ourselves and gain a beneficial understanding of its value in our lives. About the author Dr Jo Boaler is the Nomellini-Olivier Professor of Education at Stanford University and co-founder of youcubed and Struggly. Formerly the Marie Curie Professor of Mathematics Education for England, a mathematics teacher in London comprehensive schools and a researcher at King's College, London. She is the author of eighteen books, the most recent being: Math-ish:Finding Creativity, Diversity and Meaning in Mathematics, published by Harper Collins. She was listed as one of 8 educators changing the face of education by the BBC

Everyone wants to talk with Bonnie about the book's main character, Elizabeth Zott, but we turn the tables to ask Bonnie about the role rowing plays in her life – and her book – which has been on the New York Times bestseller list for nearly 100 weeks. .

Bonnie Garmus' much-loved debut novel about a female scientist-turned-TV-cooking star is now on the school curriculum. Lessons in Chemistry has been rapturously received, selling seven million copies so far, snapped up by forty publishers world-wide and adapted for tv. Perhaps as astonishing, Bonnie published the novel in her early sixties, launching a new literary career after decades working as a copy writer. Bonnie is appearing at the Auckland Writer's Festival next month to discuss what longer life experience brings to fiction.

Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus is one that we've had on our minds for awhile - and after Vicky finished it we knew we had to get into it.

Hello Libration Nation! This week I'm joined by Haley Houghton, an educator and book enthusiast. The book we discuss is “Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus. For our drink we chose coffee (this was recorded in the morning and as busy moms we weren't quite ready to get at it), and Haley added a little chemistry twist by making it in an Aeropress. In this episode we discuss turning 40, our two person only book-club, and the general bad-assery of Bonnie Garmus in writing the strong, quirky, brilliant female character Elizabeth Zott.Haley mentions this story is a tragicomedy, which is right on and there are some great read-alike out there if you want more like this book:Where'd You Go Bernadette by Maria SempleEleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail HoneymanThe Elegance of the Hedgehog* by Muriel Barbery*We did refer to this as The Elegance of the Porcupine which I think is a very cute and relatable mistake

*contains SPOILERSDr. Angela Lauria and Matt Lowry, LPP, deep dive on the book and TV series "Lessons in Chemistry," which centers around an Autistic female scientist named Elizabeth Zott (played by Brie Larson) in the 1950s. Elizabeth forms a relationship with another scientist named Calvin Evans, who is also Autistic. Their relationship depicts an "Autistic love story" with themes like info-dumping as an expression of intimacy and negotiating accommodations.“Like we talk about the double empathy problem and why relationships are easier if you are with another autistic person in some ways. That doesn't mean there are no problems or nothing to negotiate.” —AngelaOther notable autistic-coded characters are discussed, like Elizabeth's daughter Madeline—Mad—who is precocious and constantly asks complex questions. The portrayal shows a nurturing environment for an autistic child, contrasting with the gaslighting many autistics experience growing up.“Like I said, that trauma and that gaslighting is so fundamental to like our expectation sensitivity, our need to document things. When you ask us a question like our need to give you 30 reasons why we made the decision we made because we know how badly these things go but they don't have to if you create a more neuro-inclusive family structure and that really happens.” —AngelaThemes of masking, special interests, data collection, and social justice advocacy also come up in portraying authentic Autistic Culture. Changes from the book to the TV adaptation are analyzed. Overall, the podcasters greatly appreciate the attention to detail and accurate depiction of autistic experiences and culture in the series.What is something Culturally Autistic about your romantic relationship?

The influence of ongoing design trends and when publishers decide to break away from them.

Chris and Emily were thrilled to sit down and talk with Davina Morgan-Witts, the Founder and Publisher of BookBrowse. Founded in 1998, BookBrowse is one of the earliest independent online book resources. Davina and her team of editors and reviewers are committed to being “Your guide to exceptional books.” If you are not yet familiar with BookBrowse, check it out. It is a helpful and fun resource for solo readers and book clubs. Since our last episode, Emily was on the road again and visited two public libraries in Maine. The Curtis Library in Brunswick had a Robert McCloskey exhibit featuring his books Blueberries for Sal, Time of Wonder, One Morning in Maine, Burt Dow Deep-Water Man, and Make Way for Ducklings. She also browsed the Wiscasset Public Library, which claims to be “the oldest continuous circulation library in the country.” (We understand such claims are dicey in the library world and so encourage you to research the matter for your own biblio-edification if you so desire.) Meanwhile, back in Connecticut, Chris enjoyed several Couch Biblio Adventures. She watched Eye of the Needle via Kanopy, a 1981 adaptation of Ken Follett's novel of the same name; the first episode of Lessons in Chemistry an Apple TV series based on the novel by Bonnie Garmus; and The Fall of the House of Usher, Mike Flanagan's new horror mini-series on Amazon Prime that's an homage to several of Edgar Allan Poe's classic tales. And we have been reading some great books! Emily is currently reading C. Pam Zhang's LAND OF MILK AND HONEY, a dystopian novel, while Chris is following Dante's rise to the Light of God's Divine Love via THE PARADISO. Some of the books we discuss include COUNTRY PLACE by Ann Petry, AFTERLIFE by Julia Alvarez, MY ROOMMATE IS A VAMPIRE by Jenna Levine, THE QUICKENING by Elizabeth Rush, THE PURGATORIO by Dante Alighieri, AND THE GOTH HOUSE EXPERIMENT by SJ Sindu. We hope you enjoy this episode. As always, if you have any questions or comments, find us on social media or email us at bookcougars@gmail.com. Happy Reading! Chris & Emily

Bonnie Garmus, author of the bestselling novel Lessons in Chemistry, shares the story of her life through five dishes. Ruth Alexander meets Bonnie in her London home, to talk about the food influences in her debut novel about a female chemist turned TV cookery show host in the 1950s and 60s. She'll hear about Bonnie's childhood growing up in California, her own personal experiences of sexism in the workplace, the adoption of her Chinese daughters and her relationship with her husband David. Bonnie will bake a dish that features in her novel, ‘desperation brownies'. If you would like to get in touch with the show, please email: thefoodchain@bbc.co.uk Presented by Ruth Alexander. Produced by Beatrice Pickup. (Image: Bonnie Garmus in her London home with a brownie that she has baked. Credit: BBC)

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your one-stop-shop for Information about all your favorite fictional universes. Following the lead of their Disney sibling Star Wars, Marvel Studios announced on Monday that Loki Season 2 will premiere on Thursday, October 5, at 9 p.m. eastern - giving the show a primetime watching spot for North American audiences. We have to assume this means Disney+ is pleased with the viewership for Ahsoka, which is the first Disney show to experiment with a primetime release. Loki will follow suit, with all episodes dropping on Thursdays at that time. Marvel also released a featurette called “Amazing Loki” highlighted by the following quote from executive producer Kevin R. Wright; "Rest assured, our Loki will be with our Mobius, and they will be dealing with the consequences of this first season.” DC finally released the trailer for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, scheduled to hit theaters on December 20. The almost three-minute long trailer shows us an Arthur Curry, portrayed by Jason Momoa, who has embraced both sides of his life - on land and under the sea. But this bliss is going to be interrupted by Black Manta, played again by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, who threatens to destroy Aquaman's life and cause a global meltdown. We'll also see the return of Nicole Kidman, Patrick Wilson, and Temuera Morrison reprising their roles from the first film. The film is directed by James Wan. Donald Glover's Lucasfilm project Lando is now being developed as a film instead of a Disney+ series. Though Solo: A Star Wars Story - where we first saw Glover portray the smuggler - was not a box office or critical success, there was strong response to his young version of Lando Calrissian. We reported in the past that Glover is working on the project with his brother, Stephen, but of course those plans are currently on hold due to the strikes. In an April interview with GQ, Glover indicated that he isn't going to waste time on projects that mean very little to him, but he was quoted as saying “Lando is definitely somebody I'd like to hang out with,” hence his passion for the project. AppleTV+ has released its first trailer for the upcoming limited series Lessons In Chemistry starring Brie Larson. Based on the New York Times bestselling novel, the series will tell the story of Elizabeth Zott, a chemist turned celebrity chef during the 1950s. Though Lessons in Chemistry, written by Bonnie Garmus, is a work of fiction, the novel examines issues of feminism and patriarchy that still resonate today. The series will run for eight episodes from October 13 through November 24 and also stars Rainn Wilson, Lewis Pullman, and Aja Naomi King. A full trailer was released for Percy Jackson and The Olympians, premiering on Disney+ in December. The story will follow Percy Jackson coming to terms with newfound supernatural powers while restoring order to Olympus. The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers says that the Writers Guild of America reached out to restart negotiations, and the organization is seeking to schedule the meeting this week. The first trailer for the upcoming Halloween themed Horror-Comedy film Totally Killer has been released. The film stars Kiernan Shipka as the protagonist who accidentally time travels to the 1980s and attempts to stop a series of murders. The Blumhouse and Amazon Studios production hits Prime Video exclusively on October 6. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness star Xochitl(sow-cheel) Gomez, Who played America Chavez, will be one of the contestants competing on season 32 of Dancing With the Stars. Gomez is the first actor from the MCU to compete on the show while also being an active part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Our guest this week is Jane Roper. Jane is the author of two previous books: a memoir, Double Time, and a novel, Eden Lake. Her short fiction, essays, and humor have appeared in publications including McSweeney's Internet Tendency, The Millions, The Rumpus, Salon, and Poets & Writers and on NPR. Her new novel, The Society of Shame, is now available. ABOUT THE SOCIETY OF SHAME “If you liked Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus, read The Society of Shame by Jane Roper.” —The Washington PostIn this timely and witty combination of So You've Been Publicly Shamed and Where'd You Go, Bernadette? a viral photo of a politician's wife's “feminine hygiene malfunction” catapults her to unwanted fame in a story that's both a satire of social media stardom and internet activism, and a tender mother-daughter tale.Kathleen Held's life is turned upside down when she arrives home to find her house on fire and her husband on the front lawn in his underwear. But the scandal that emerges is not that Bill, who's running for Senate, is having a painfully cliched affair with one of his young staffers: it's that the eyewitness photographing the scene accidentally captures a period stain on the back of Kathleen's pants.Overnight, Kathleen finds herself the unwitting figurehead for a social media-centered women's right movement, #YesWeBleed. Humiliated, Kathleen desperately seeks a way to hide from the spotlight. But when she stumbles upon the Society of Shame—led by the infamous author Danica Bellevue—Kathleen finds herself part of a group who are all working to change their lives after their own scandals. Using the teachings of the society, Kathleen channels her newfound fame as a means to reap the benefits of her humiliation and reclaim herself. But as she ascends to celebrity status, Kathleen's growing obsession with maintaining her popularity online threatens her most important relationship IRL: that with her budding activist daughter, Aggie.Hilarious and heartfelt, The Society of Shame is a pitch-perfect romp through politics and the perils of being “extremely online”—without losing your sanity or your true self. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message
