Host Cyrus Webb welcomes author Brian Birnbaum to #ConversationsLIVE to discuss his writing journey and the new book that already has people talking: EMERALD CITY.   

We're so excited about this week's episode! We recorded this episode live at this year's Fall for the Book Festival in Fairfax, Virgina! Featuring YA Author Atia Abawi, we discussed how she and host Brian Birnbaum redefine the definitions of home and trauma. In Abawi’s book, A Land of Permanent Goodbyes, Syria is torn apart due to war, leaving each survivor with a new and dangerous label: refugee. And in Birnbaum’s Emerald City, a family company’s profits are being used to illegally fund a drug-crop in Guatemala. Guest Atia Abawi is a foreign news correspondent who was stationed for almost five years in Kabul, Afghanistan. She was born to Afghan parents in West Germany and was raised in the United States. Her first book for teens was the powerful The Secret Sky, about forbidden romance between different ethnic tribes in Afghanistan. And today's podcast was lovingly guest produced by the one and only Annie Krabbenschmidt. The transcript for this episode can be found on our website.

Birnbaum and Rainey share what it took for them to start Dead Rabbits Books, how they give each other feedback, and why they appreciate fresh eyes on their work.

For this eleventh episode of the Animal Riot Podcast, your fearless leader and arbitrarily-selected host, Brian Birnbaum, teams up with his producer(s), Katie Rainey, to welcome Christopher Gonzalez, a writer of fiction and nonfiction, editor at Barrelhouse Magazine, and digital production associate at Macmillan. After dedicating roughly half the episode to Chris's newly exalted status as an oat milk influencer, we move on to the writing community's love affair with Twitter, sexual realization in today's society, and take a moment to hear Chris read a flash fiction piece that will put you in the mood for seafood & sex & sadness.  Transcripts for our Deaf and Hard of Hearing Animals can be found on our website.   

In this tenth episode of the Animal Riot podcast we bring back the OG Animals, Devin Kelly, George Sawaya, and Jared Marcel Pollen, to discuss technological disruption's impact on the future of writing and art. Beginning with House of Cards' origins in big data, your faithful host, Brian Birnbaum, and his gang of perishing bunnies navigate such topics as robot art, big data's potential impact on art, and the creative market's fate in the face of algorithmic advancement -- including the movies such algorithms would personalize for each of us podcasters (#TotalRecall2 #TogetherWeCanDoThis).

It is important to understand the difference between cardiac and non-cardiac causes of syncope. The cause of syncope can be identified in about 50 percent of patients by history and physical alone. Both past medical history and the history of the event are vital. Cardiogenic Syncope can be life threatening. It generally requires specialized evaluation (echocardiogram, exercise stress test) and treatment and often requires activity restriction. Listen in as Brian Birnbaum, MD explains that Vasovagal/Orthostatic Syncope is usually not life threatening and can often be diagnosed with history and a physical exam.
