SHUGGIE BAIN đào sâu vào từng góc khuất tăm tối của Glasgow vào thập niên 1980 dưới thời Margaret Thatcher, qua đó hé lộ một câu chuyện xúc động về những mảnh đời chật vật trong cảnh bế tắc mà không thấy được ánh sáng. Bằng lối kể pha trộn giữa bi kịch với hài hước, tàn nhẫn với dịu dàng, lòng trắc ẩn với đau đớn tột cùng, SHUGGIE BAIN khắc họa nên bức tranh đầy ám ảnh về quan hệ gia đình, về định kiến xã hội, về sự tự nhận thức bản thân, về đói nghèo và tệ nạn. Khi con người ngập ngụa dưới đáy khốn khổ, họ hiến dâng mù quáng cho tình yêu, họ chạm tới giới hạn tưởng chừng vô tận, họ bám víu điên cuồng vào niềm kiêu hãnh và hy vọng để khao khát làm chủ vận mệnh. Cuốn tiểu thuyết đầy day dứt này sẽ khiến bạn phải khóc! THÔNG TIN TÁC GIẢ: Douglas Stuart sinh ra và lớn lên tại thành phố Glasgow, Scotland. Năm 24 tuổi, Douglas chuyển đến New York theo đuổi ngành thời trang sau khi tốt nghiệp Đại học Nghệ thuật Hoàng gia ở London. Douglas Stuart đến với nghiệp viết lách khá muộn nhưng cuốn sách đầu tay của ông - SHUGGIE BAIN - đã lập tức gây tiếng vang khi lọt vào đề cử giải Sách quốc gia Mỹ và giành giải Booker 2020. #TrạmRadio #RadioVănHọc #DouglasStuar __________ Để cam kết với bạn nghe đài dự án Trạm Radio sẽ chạy đường dài, chúng tôi cần sự ủng hộ của quý bạn để duy trì những dịch vụ phải trả phí.

Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards. First, Dom welcomes Latrice Booker, Director of the HOPE Pregnancy Center, onto the podcast after the pro-life center was attacked by pro-abortion groups with broken windows and vandalism. First, Giordano asks Booker for the mission statement of the Center, with Booker laying out the positive influences that HOPE has on the Philadelphia community. Then, Giordano asks Booker about the vandalism that took place over the weekend, with Booker telling of the situation and thankfully revealing that the inside of the organization was left untouched. Giordano asks whether there has been any media contact after the incident, with Booker affirming that many media outlets have indeed reached out although there hasn't been much coverage. Then, Stephanie Taub, Senior Counsel with the First Liberty Institute representing Coach Joe Kennedy in his Supreme Court case, returns to Readin' Writin' and Reason for an update on the case as it sits in the highest court of the country. Coach Joe Kennedy was suspended and later fired from his post as a High School football coach because he prayed with players after football games. The firing school district alleges that students felt uncomfortable and felt forced to partake in the prayer circles, with the Supreme Court deciding how this plays out in the frame of religious freedom. Taub tells that the representation team expects a verdict within the next 2 weeks, and defends her client's stance against allegations levied his way by politicians and media members.

This is the ONE thing you should never do on a date PERIOD!!!
On tomorrow's ag business episode we are featuring a gentleman who has made an interesting career out of auctioning farm and ranch real estate. On the following Monday we are featuring his daughter, who is in the FFA and is also an auctioneer. It is a complete look into the world of this interesting and fundamental career. So, for our re-cap episode this week I wanted to take a look back at some of the other auctioneers who I have profiled on the show. Who better than Cotton Booker, who as the 2018 International Junior Auctioneer Champion! The original show notes are below: INTRODUCING COTTON BOOKER! Today I get to introduce you to a humble young man who is having great success. Cotton Booker is the 2018 International Junior Auctioneer Champion, the youngest ever auctioneer at the Barrett Jackson Auction and the Washington State Star winner in agribusiness. Cotton's family is in the auctioneering business, and he has been learning about it his whole life. Cotton has had a lot of success through auctioneering, and he went to a professional auctioneer's school when he was only 13 years old as the youngest student they had there. Today, Cotton works for his families business, and he has also started his own auction company, Booker Auction. He is carrying on the family legacy and trying to help people out in agriculture when it comes time for an estate sale or otherwise. SUPERVISED AGRICULTURAL EXPERIENCE: Auctioneering HIGH SCHOOL: Colfax High School; Colfax, Washington MASCOT: Bulldogs FFA ADVISOR: Michael Heitstuman CONTACT INFORMATION FOR COTTON BOOKER: Click on the picture below to be taken to the Colfax High School website: Cotton's FFA Advisors' Email Addresses: MICHAEL.HEITSTUMAN@csd300.com Colfax High School's Telephone Number: (509) 397-4368 FFA LINKS: National FFA Organization Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE's) Support FFA Donate to FFA - One way that FFA students are able to start small businesses is through an FFA grant of $1,000. In 2014, 141 FFA students received these grants. With your donations, more students can get this head start - pay it forward. REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world. FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation. The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America's youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America's youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.

The 2020 Booker Prize winner, Douglas Stuart, spoke to me about his sensational second novel, Young Mungo. Stuart became an international writing sensation after his debut novel, Shuggie Bain, won the Booker, and gained him countless readers and fans in the literary world. In this episode, we explored the story of Mungo in great detail. As I summated in a review recently ( https://www.timeslive.co.za/sunday-times-daily/opinion-and-analysis/2022-05-19-book-review-the-quiet-violence-of-young-mungo/ ), "Young Mungo is set in Glasgow and tells the story of Mungo and his family. They are a working-class Protestant family, with plenty of trials and tribulations. His mom, Maureen, is an alcoholic. His brother, Hamish, several years older, is addicted to violence, and his sister Jodie, desperate to escape the horror of their circumstances, is forced to play mother to her younger brother Mungo because Maureen is never around."Stuart started off reading from a scene in which a neighbour, Mrs Campbell, appears to defend her husband who had beaten her up, resisting the moral criticism of him from young Jodie. We discussed, in some detail, the complexities of this scene, and the issues they surface, including the brutalising effect that working on the ships and in the mines had on many men in working-class communities. Without excusing domestic violence, Young Mungo examines the class fissures in 1980s and 1990s Glasgow and Britain that led to some of the social ills that are illuminated throughout the novel including alcholism, religious bigotry, domestic violence, etcetera. The whole episode is riveting. Have a listen!
Join us for 7 minutes as we look for some good examples. We'll hear from Teddy Roosevelt, Booker T. Washington and my mother Corinne. All have something to reinforce from Paul's charge to the Thessalonians about working hard, minding your own affairs, and living a quiet life. All of these areas affect the view that outsiders have of us. This perspective is not unimportant. In fact, it is the most loving thing I can do. No work = No witness. No good walk = No good witness. Yes, Paul tells us we should care about what others think, at least a little. Listen 7 minutes (exactly) today. You'll hear from some very wise people. Paul, Teddy, Booker and my mother.
