I'm in a book club right now, for the first time ever. (Yeah, I know, gasp. But I've always had so much to read for so many reasons that I've never sought out a book club). It's a pretty great concept - reading a book you want to read with your friends. A concept that I've thought about for a while now should really be part of every single ELA curriculum. Book clubs allow us to offer students curated choices, present more diverse voices as part of our curricula, and expand on themes and genres to give students a wider range of experiences through their conversations with classmates. Win, win, win. Today on the pod, I want to show you how easy it is to wave your book club wand and easily turn part of your curriculum into book clubs.

Buckle up, because the drama is sizzling. Kyle and Amanda have split, mullets are terrorizing the nation, and Ciara and West might be rekindling something… or maybe we're just delusional. We break down book club antics, Audrey and Austin's breakup, plus: the regrettable chickens. Don't listen if Craig tells you to get chickens.

Today's episode is with two guests whom I met online, but who didn't know each other before we got together to record our episode.Both are involved in interesting projects that help others to learn. Both are bringing people together to learn more about their language and culture.Carla runs a weekly Italian reading group online, where she brings people together to discover Italian literature. At the same time, they have the opportunity to refine their language skills, give opinions, and understand more about the language through reading the books.Margarida runs a fortnightly Portuguese conversation group, primarily in Lisbon. Participants can develop their speaking skills, ask questions about the Portuguese language and culture, receive feedback on their writing, and make new friends.We discussed how each of the groups works, who would most benefit from each one, the value that comes from learning as part of a guided group, and at the end there's some advice for people who might feel anxious about signing up to new language practice groups.Here's the show notes page: https://www.englishwithkirsty.com/podcast/episode303

Happy pub' day Elizabeth! Award-winning author and journalist Elizabeth Arnott spoke with us about her early studies of serial killers, a wild journalism career, and her latest period-set crime novel THE SECRET LIVES OF MURDERERS' WIVES. Elizabeth Arnott has written critically acclaimed historical fiction as Lizzie Pook (her maiden name). As a journalist, she covered everything from true crime to Arctic exploration and appeared in publications such as The Sunday Times, National Geographic, The New York Times Book Review, and The Guardian among others. She has described her much-anticipated latest historical crime novel as Mad Men with murders, and Lessons in Chemistry with a body count. The Secret Lives of Murderers' Wives [available for pre-order and landing March 3, 2026; Berkley Hardcover], is a story that “... centers on three unlikely friends—all former wives of serial killers—and their efforts to solve a string of local killings in 1966 California.” The book was acquired in a heated seven-way auction and named one of “The Best Books for Book Clubs in 2026” by Glamour, and among “The 10 Most-Anticipated Mystery-Thriller Books of 2026” by Marie Claire. Parade wrote of the book, “... a story that feels like Bright Young Women collided with Mindhunter …. a propulsive, period-set whodunit perfect for anyone who loves early criminal profiling and Mad Men-era aesthetics with bite.” [This episode is sponsored by Ulysses.

Literacy rates are falling in the U.S. Reading scores for high school seniors nationwide saw their lowest levels since 1992 last year. And Delaware's unfortunately on par – students saw another stagnant year for reading proficiency in 2025.But this doesn't mean reading culture and book clubs are dead. U.S. publishing revenues totaled $32.5 billion in 2024.And Wuthering Heights is about to hit movie theaters, prompting long loan lines in Delaware libraries.On this edition of Enlighten Me, Delaware Public Media's Abigail Lee looks into Delaware's many book clubs and the benefits their members reap.

UNLOCKED from our Patreon page, it's the "The Science of Consequences" Book Club! Interested in more Book Clubs? Want to vote on what we read next? Feeling FOMO at getting this a full year late? Wish your 2.5 CEs for listening to the episode were FREE??? Join us on Patreon to get all of our episodes a week early, access to these bonus episodes, plus other goodies. As a follow-up from our episode on storytelling, we our Winter 2024 Book Club explored Dr. Susan Schneider's 2012 opus, The Science of Consequences, as an example of taking the hugely important concept of learning through consequences and making it understandable to the wider public. But hey, while she was at it, why not explain how consequences impact evolution, or gene expression, or social improvement strategies. And add multiple examples of how consequences work in labs and the natural environment across a wide range of human and non-human species. And make it fun to read! But before our crack Book Club squad dives into the nitty gritty of the content, we had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Schneider herself to ask how she managed to take millions of years of the effects of consequences and pack it into a 300+ page book as well as how her study of consequences informs her current work as a climate change policy advocate. This episode is available for 2.5 LEARNING CEUs. Content discussed in this episode: Schneider, S.M. (2012). The science of consequences: How they affect genes, change the brain, and impact our world.

SUMMARY: This episode is a replay from a previous season of Ops Experts, but the conversation remains just as relevant today. Aaron Hovivian, Terryn Turner, and Savannah Newton dive into what it really means to invest in people beyond hiring—focusing on onboarding, culture, and long-term team development. Rather than treating recruitment as a finish line, the discussion emphasizes building systems and environments that help people grow once they're inside the organization. The team explores practical ways leaders can develop their people, including intentional onboarding, clearly communicating company culture, using tools like EOS and the Vision Traction Organizer, and creating shared learning experiences through book clubs, mentoring, and team huddles. The core takeaway: strong operations aren't just about processes—they're built by developing people in a way that's clear, repeatable, and aligned with where the company is going.

Parade wrote of the book, “... a story that feels like Bright Young Women collided with Mindhunter …. a propulsive, period-set whodunit perfect for anyone who loves early criminal profiling and Mad Men-era aesthetics with bite.” [This episode is sponsored by Ulysses.

Was passiert, wenn ein Verlag sagt: Lasst uns doch einfach mal ganz Deutschland ein Buch lesen lassen?In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit Mona Lang (KiWi) über die Entstehung von „Deutschland liest ein Buch“, über Bookclubs ohne Hürden, Silent-Reading-Partys, die Rolle des Buchhandels – und über den Mut, Dinge nicht perfekt zu planen, sondern einfach zu machen.Mona erzählt, warum bewusst kein Promi-Bookclub im Mittelpunkt steht, weshalb ein internationaler Roman den Auftakt bildet („Real Americans“ von Rachel Khong) und warum gemeinsames Lesen gerade in herausfordernden Zeiten so viel bewirken kann.Außerdem geht es um: • Lesen als soziale Erfahrung • Einsamkeit und Gemeinschaft • Trial & Error im Verlagsalltag • Buchhandel als aktiven Mitgestalter • und die Lust, wieder über Bücher zu sprechenEine Folge, die Lust macht aufs Lesen – aber vor allem aufs gemeinsame Lesen."Real Americans" von Rachel Khong (KiWi) könnt ihr bei Genialokal vorbestellen, oder direkt beim Verlag.Zudem empfiehlt Mona Lang: "Gelb, auch ein schöner Gedanke" von Nefeli Kavouras. Ebenfalls vorbestellbar über Genialokal.Andi empfiehlt diesmal "Adlergestell" von Laura Laabs (Tropen Verlag). Das Buch könnt ihr natürlich auch bei Genialokal bestellen, oder eurer Buchhandlung des Vertrauens.Wir bitten die gelegentlichen Tonstörungen zu entschuldigen. Da war wohl leider ein Kabel etwas lose.

Exhausted from late diagnosed autism masking as an adult? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats with Wendela Whitcomb Marsh (Dr. Wendy), award-winning author, TEDx speaker, and US Autism Association board member, on neurodivergent self-acceptance, workplace accommodations, and advocacy for high-masking autistic adults—especially women/girls/trans/ND folks. After 40 years in special ed/psychology, Dr. Wendy founded (and sold) Adult Autism Assessment & Services, drawing from her autistic family (late husband + 2/3 adult kids). Her Adulting While Autistic series (Independent Living, Dating, Relating, Parenting, Working While Autistic) and SWAN Church (Scripture & Worship for All Neurotypes) empower underserved voices. Key insights: Adult vs. child autism: Masking hides symptoms (e.g., routines for eye contact/socializing); exhaustion from "faking normal." Late-dx challenges: Women/trans/non-binary often missed (3-6x overlap with autism); bullying/shame leads to self-doubt. Workplace/family support: Frame needs as productivity wins (e.g., noise-canceling headphones/WFH); believe autistic voices—no "faking." Clinician tips: Read autistic authors, seek ND-affirming pros; self-ID valid if no paper needed (for disability/accommodations). Advocacy ahead: Boa constrictor squeeze (hard times)—stay safe, speak out; churches need inclusivity (SWAN as model). For autistic young adults unmasking or parents advocating, Dr. Wendy's optimism shines: "Nothing wrong with you—world's not built for you."

Think about how different perspectives create magic. The best friend groups, book clubs, and communities outside of work aren't just “life hacks” or productivity tools — but what they offer is far more powerful. They support you, balance you, and push you to grow. The real value of shared-interest communities isn't in everyone nodding along; it's in what happens when different minds meet. You spark new ideas, make meaningful relationships, and create spaces for healthy debate. In this episode, we share stories from our own book clubs and explore why finding your crew — the people who challenge and champion you — is one of the best investments you can make in yourself.
