Have you been hooked by the idea of book clubs lately? Wondering how you can integrate book clubs with essential questions, supplementary short stories and podcasts, and everything else you're up to? Then today's episode is for you. Today's "Plan my Lesson" request comes from a creative teacher trying to blend a lot of wonderful things into her new plan for the year. Here's what she writes: "Hi, Betsy! I am a huge fan and avid listener! As a teacher who is nearing retirement, I found myself in a slump. You've been an inspiration! I have completely changed my curriculum for next year (we are mid-process in curriculum writing). For the first time, all of my classes are completely novel-based using lit circles. I have selected five titles for students to choose from each quarter, with plans to supplement like crazy with nonfiction pieces, TED talks, podcasts, etc. I have created an overarching essential question for each semester to tie all the pieces together. It's a bit overwhelming, but I am super excited to get started! Any ideas you have specific to lit circles would be much appreciated! And if I can figure out a way to intertwine genius hour, I would be thrilled

Most people have belonged to a book club at some point in their lives, but have you ever thought about the history of book clubs?  Come find out about how book clubs have developed and changed over time, from ancient Greece, to Puritan America, to Oprah.  Probably the only thing they all have in common is at least one member who didn't do the reading.

Fresh from the Logies red carpet, Amanda shares what it’s really like to survive a late-night TV awards show on two glasses of wine and four hours’ sleep. Then, she and Anita turn their attention to book clubs — why we love them, why they sometimes implode, and the delicate balance between friendship, leadership, and actually finishing the book. From Oprah’s “reading revolution” to passive-aggressive surveys, fake book clubbers, and their own hilariously named BBBC, the Chattery duo explore why book clubs are thriving again post-COVID, what happens when they go off the rails, and how reading really is the antidote to endless scrolling.

We're kicking off our first-ever book report episode—and yes, we're calling it that on purpose. Because books have always been part of our whole life. I'm joined by my favorite reading partner: my husband, Matt. Together, we dive into stories that make us laugh, think, and ugly-cry in public. We talk about what we're reading (Margot's Got Money Troubles and Atmosphere, spoiler-free, promise). We also chat about how books shape our worldview, challenge our biases, and sometimes leave us sobbing on a treadmill—or doing laundry while quietly falling apart. Whether you read with your partner or solo, whether you love audiobooks or prefer paperbacks, this episode is an invitation to think differently about fiction—and how the right story at the right time can shift everything. 0:00 | Why We're Talking About Books 1:15 | Fiction That Surprises and Stretches Us 4:30 | Letting Go of Judgment (Even the Quiet Kind) 6:45 | Systems, Safety, and How We Care for Others 8:30 | How and Why We Read (Audiobooks, Shared Credits & Book Clubs) 11:30 | An Author We Love (and Why She's More Than “Chick Lit”) 13:00 | Space, Sexism, and Historical Power 17:00 | What Draws Us Into a Story (Even When It's Not Our Thing) 19:15 | Identity, Safety, and Belonging 21:45 | Choosing Between Love and Purpose 23:30 | Emotional Payoff (Without Spoilers) 25:00 | When a Book Wrecks You—in the Best Way 27:00 | Crafting Characters That Actually Matter 30:00 | Layers of Family, Friendship, and Social Pressure 33:00 | Villains, Compassion, and Personal Growth 35:00 | What We're Reading Now 41:00 | Our Love Story, Told in Audiobooks 43:00 | What's Next on Our Reading List Find Stacy: ⁠⁠realeverything.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠instagram.com/realstacytoth⁠⁠ ⁠⁠missionmakersart.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In the first decades of the 20th Century, a growth in literacy and the availability of paperback and hardback books created a culture of mass participation on literary reading that was unprecedented. Nicola Wilson's new book Recommended, a history of the Book Society, tells the story of Hugh Walpole, JB Priestley and Cecil Day Lewis amongst others and how they created the first mass book club which sent monthly recommendations to lower middle class and working class readers. Here we hear from Nicola and explore the era of mass literary culture and also the pushback from more elitist cultural gatekeepers and literary critics. A must listen for anyone interested in Britain's social and cultural modern history. *****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Hosted on Acast.

Visionary artist Delphine Diallo joins me in Sacred Conversation. We cover the cosmos in this one. AI as both a colonizing and liberating instrument. History as a mirror. Ancestral remembrance. Embodied spirituality. Bruce Lee. And so much more. May this soul medicine nourish you. You may find Delphine's work on Instagram at @delphinediallo.....Sacred Conversations are periodic episodes of my podcast in which I reach out to people whose work and life inspire me, and we simply have a soulful conversation. Prerecorded for video and available on my YouTube channel. No scripted, transactional, extractive, one-sided interview dynamic. Just two people with a care and curiosity for each other's journey and creative work, asking each other about what stirs in us, and enjoying the ancient, mutually healing art of listening deeply. Again, not an interview. A spiritual communion. The idea is for us to relax and enjoy an organic conversation, like over tea or breaking bread, and to get to know each other along the way. ....All of my books are available at booksellers worldwide.
