It isn't often that a guest brings us a no-doubt future classic, but that's certainly the case on this episode of Certified Forgotten. This week, Matt Donato and Matthew Monagle are joined by author Jonathan Janz (Veil, The End of the World as We Know It) to talk about Erik Kristopher Myers's Butterfly Kisses. Join us for a wide-ranging conversation about writing, letting monsters be monsters, and the unexpected greatness of a found footage film within a found footage film.

In this month's astrology and Earth Medicine reading, Angie explores October as a sacred threshold — the place between light and shadow, remembering and becoming. With the Full Moon in Aries and the New Moon in Libra opening the heart and the will, this is a month for courage, clarity, and connection with our ancestors. Owl teaches us to see in the dark; Butterfly leads our rebirth; Obsidian walks into shadow work with us; and Marigold reminds us to keep our light alive. Together, we find our way back to wholeness.Reach Angelica at angie@themoonandstone.com or via her website at themoonandstone.com

It has been a hot minute since the last installment of a discography-series episode dropped, and I couldn't be happier than to share that I was able to convince Sammy Sanchez to join me for a breakdown of the King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard catalog.Sammy and I go all the way back to Two Thousand and Twenty-Two, when I met him for the first time after having his awesome father, Cesar, sit down with me to talk music and life.I've gotten to know Sammy via these (now five total) podcast conversations, and that lane of my life is richer for it.In our initial conversation, we talked LCD Soundsystem, Pink Floyd, and Tom Waits. Our second installment peeked into the Tom Waits discography. We did a Beck episode, and a Radiohead episode, and now...it's Kay Gee & the Elle Double-you, baby!How does one attempt to describe King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard? Well...they're an Australian rock band that has broken the mold of prolific studio recordings. In short, they formed in 2010, and have dropped 30 records in that span, and no, there are no typos in this sentence.Thirty records!Beyond that, you just have to see for yourself. They can get heavy. They sometimes journey. And -- from time to time -- they jam. Here's the collection (to the best of our knowledge):Willoughby's Beach (2011)12 Bar Bruise (2012)Eyes Like the Sky (2013)Float Along -- Fill Your Lungs (2013)Oddments (2014)I'm in Your Mind Fuzz (2014)Quarters! (2015)Papier Mache Dream Balloon (2015)Nonagon Infinity (2016)Flying Microtonal Banana (2017)Murder of the Universe (2017)Sketches of Brunswick East (2017)Polygondwanaland (2017)Gumboot Soup (2017)Fishing for Fishies (2019)Infest the Rats' Nest (2019)Chunky Shrapnel (2020)K.G. (2020)L.W. (2021)Butterfly 3000 (2021)Butterfly 3001 (2022)Ominium Gatherum (2022)Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms, and Lava (2022)Made in Timeland (2022)Laminated Denim (2022)Changes (2022)Petro Dragonic Apocalypse (2023)The Silver Cord (2023)Flight b741 (2024)Phantom Island (2025)And there you have it. And in case you were curious, yes, that was exhausting to type and italicize. So, yes, I can imagine how you totally didn't read it at all.Regardless, Sammy and I motored through the thing and did so (in my estimation) with some sense of efficiency; we didn't dawdle and we certainly didn't speed.Needless, to say, I hope there's a way for some folks to find this conversation enjoyable, be they K.G. & the L.W. fans or not. It was certainly fun and rewarding to do it.Many thanks to Sammy for his knowledge and his energy, and thank you to all of you that support the show.Cheers.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the audio samples contained in this episode (or any other, for that matter).

How do you move from the depths of grief to a life of joy, purpose, and transformation? On this episode of The Story Engine Podcast, I sit down with Alisa Cooper, founder of Cocoon to Butterfly—a movement, program, and experience designed to guide people through the painful seasons of loss and help them emerge with renewed hope and joy. Alisa shares her deeply personal journey, the lessons she's learned along the way, and the practices that allow her to support others on their own paths of transformation. This conversation is as much about resilience as it is about healing. Whether you're navigating grief yourself, supporting someone you love, or simply seeking more joy and alignment in your life, Alisa's story and methods will leave you inspired to embrace transformation. ⏱ Episode Highlights with Timestamps [02:27] – Alisa's personal journey: how grief became the catalyst for her mission [05:43] – The importance of creating safe, supportive spaces for healing [08:19] – How transformation often feels like a cocoon stage before joy can emerge [11:06] – Practices and rituals Alisa uses to help people move through grief [14:52] – Why joy and grief can coexist—and how to honor both [18:17] – Kyle and Alisa discuss the power of vulnerability in building community [21:44] – Stories of participants who found new strength and clarity through her program [25:09] – The role of movement, creativity, and ritual in the healing process [28:35] – Closing thoughts: embracing the transformation from cocoon to butterfly in your own life

In the final installment of our Sacred Secular Syncopated series, Emily Austin and theologian-writer Femi Olutade dive deep into the sacred undercurrents of hip-hop — from The Message to To Pimp a Butterfly. Drawing on scripture, Orthodox theology, and the language of transformation, they explore how artists like Tupac Shakur and Kendrick Lamar turn lived struggle into spiritual reflection.What begins as a discussion of protest music becomes an invitation to rethink repentance (metanoia) — not as punishment, but as change of mind, heart, and being. Through examples from good kid, m.A.A.d city, DAMN., and Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, Femi unpacks how Lamar's art embodies an ongoing conversion — personal, communal, and divine.Femi Olutade is a theologian, writer, and father whose work explores the intersection of faith, art, and culture through an Orthodox Christian lens. He is best known for authoring the script of Season 5 of the Dissect podcast, a 20-episode analysis of Kendrick Lamar's DAMN. — winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Music.Find Femi's work:

In her explosive new book Blue Butterfly: Inside the Diary of an Epstein Survivor, investigative author Sarah McCarthy exposes the hidden story the media refused to tell. Drawing from Juliette Bryant's secret diary, McCarthy reveals a chilling world where elite scientists, intelligence agencies, and global leaders converged—using victims not only for blackmail, but for covert experiments in eugenics, cloning, and mind control. In this episode of Strange Planet, Richard Syrett sits down with McCarthy to crack open the darkest secret of our age: Epstein as prototype for elite power. GUEST: Sarah McCarthy is a South African-born investigative author who exposes the covert alliances between global elites, intelligence agencies, and controversial science. A former top copywriter for brands like Ogilvy & Mather and Burberry, she now applies her skills to uncovering hidden power structures. Her latest book, Blue Butterfly: Inside the Diary of an Epstein Survivor, reveals how Jeffrey Epstein's operation extended far beyond sex trafficking—into eugenics, cloning, and mind-control experimentation disguised as philanthropy.

Jeff and Phil welcome pop culture pals and cultural critics Dino-Ray Ramos and Rebecca Sun to discuss two new similarly-flavored TV series, Butterfly and Tempest. They explore the cultural significance of these Korean and Korean-adjacent shows, their unique storytelling approaches, and the evolving landscape of Asian American representation in global content. They discuss the future of authentic Asian storytelling in Hollywood -- beyond stunt casting and "flower vases"; the role of diaspora creatives; and the balance between small, intimate stories and larger global narratives. They also caution against Hollywood's inevitable exploitation and commodification of K-culture.

If you've ever dreamed of turning your backyard (or even your balcony!) into a haven for butterflies, this episode is for you. Debbie and Laurie welcome Pamela Grundy — historian, writer, and passionate butterfly gardener from Charlotte, North Carolina — to share her journey into creating thriving butterfly gardens and inspiring others to do the same. Pamela explains the simple but powerful difference between nectar plants and host plants, why milkweed is essential for monarchs, and how even a few parsley plants can support the full butterfly life cycle. Along the way, she shares practical tips, common mistakes to avoid, and insights from her book Butterfly Gardening in the Carolina Piedmont. Whether you're new to gardening or ready to take your pollinator-friendly planting to the next level, you'll leave this episode inspired to make space for butterflies — and all the beauty they bring to our natural world.

Smith  “When your soul is rested we're actually much more productive, and more clear-headed and full of joy. We can love people better.” - Laura L. Smith  “When we embrace who God has created us to be and what he's called us to in this season, it helps us to not be looking around so much at what other people are doing as a guideline of what we should be doing.” - Andrea Fortenberry We'd love to connect with you!

In this episode of YAS Podcast, host Daisy Ducati, along with co-host AM Davies, engages with guests Elene Lam and Chanelle Gallant to discuss their book 'Not Your Rescue Project.' The conversation delves into the problematic aspects of anti-trafficking movements, revealing how these initiatives often harm rather than help sex workers, particularly migrant and racialized workers. Highlighting the intersection of SW, migration, and racial justice, the discussion uncovers the urgency of addressing the misconceptions behind rescue projects and calls for unified support from the left. The episode also focuses on the organizing efforts of Butterfly, an Asian and migrant SW support network, and explores the detrimental impact of criminalization and policing on sex workers. Listeners are encouraged to educate themselves, support migrant SW organizations, and challenge the systemic issues within anti-trafficking movements.00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Hosts00:41 Welcome to YAS Podcast02:13 Meet Our Guests: Elene Lamb and Chanelle03:17 Discussing 'Not Your Rescue Project'05:48 The Intersection of Sex Work and Racial Justice07:42 Challenges Faced by Migrant SW's10:39 The Role of Anti-Trafficking Movements16:15 The Complexity of Migrant SW21:57 The Anti-Trafficking Industry26:49 Racism in Human Trafficking Narratives37:56 State Exploitation and Armed Robbery38:22 Undercover Officers and Legal Loopholes38:54 ICE Arrests and Migrant SW39:45 The Spectacle of Cruelty in Immigration Enforcement40:14 Sex Workers and Immigration Enforcement Tactics40:43 Anti-Trafficking Organizations and Surveillance43:38 Racial Disparities in Anti-Trafficking Efforts44:05 The Criminalization of Migrant SW's49:44 Funding Disparities in Anti-Trafficking Movements58:55 The Resistance and Organizing of Migrant SW's01:01:14 How to Support Migrant SW's01:04:07 Final Thoughts and Call to ActionLinksButterfly SW OrgButterfly InstagramChanelle Galante WebsiteChanelle InstagramDaisy InstagramYAS Work InstagramYAS Work BlueSkyYAS Work TwitterYAS Work Youtube

A classic old Nintendo series has had a big new twist, and it's got us asking “is Mario Kart World made for us?”, plus heading back to the nineties with Humongous Entertainment and Mega Cat Studios and the re-release of Backyard Baseball '97. In case that weren't enough old video games, there's more action from Hamster's Arcade Archives series, with a look at Namco's Air Combat 22 and Aqua Jet. Away from the screens, over to the tabletop, and headed back in time to mythological Greece, Cyclades Legendary Edition from Open Sesame Games is another classic by Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc that's been given a loving restoration.

Nearly every great story involves a transformation. In the butterfly world, we call it metamorphosis—the mysterious process where a caterpillar seemingly dissolves itself and is miraculously rebuilt into a creature that takes to the sky. Our guest today is a living parallel to that transformation.Liam O'Brien started his career far from the wild, under the bright lights of the stage as a professional actor. Yet, a shift was coming. At a pivotal time in his life, he traded the scripts and the spotlight for the quiet, meticulous study of winged beauty, stepping into the world of lepidoptery.This pivot wasn't just a career change; it was a profound reawakening. In the precision and fragile beauty of the Bay Area's butterflies, Liam not only found a new scientific passion but he also re-discovered his dormant talent for art. He began documenting his observations with exquisite, original drawings, blending science and creativity in a way only he could.The final form of this incredible journey is his beautifully illustrated Butterflies of the Bay Area - and slightly beyond.Today, Liam discusses what makes butterflies so amazing. We discuss how no matter where you live, there are discoveries to be made. And this interview is so much more than just butterflies. You'll have to listen to hear the raw, jaw dropping story of what led Liam to this life change.And as you'd expect from a stage actor, Liam is full of charismatic and entertaining stories. And while we get into the details of some specific butterflies and places of the Bay Area, rest assured - there are parallels no matter where you live.You can find Liam at robber_fly on instagram, and check out the show notes for links to Heyday Press and his book. And thanks to Amelia Heintz-Botz for editing help with this episode!FULL SHOW NOTESButterflies of the Bay Area and (Slightly) Beyond - Liam's beautiful new bookADDITIONAL LINKSLiam's public appearancesThe Lepidopterists' SocietyBooksDangerous World of Butterflies by Peter LauferKaufman Field Guide To Butterflies Of North AmericaRelated Podcast Episode#46: Paul Johnson - Finding and Counting ButterfliesSupport Us On Patreon!Buy our Merch!Music: Spellbound by Brian Holtz MusicLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist site: https://brianholtzmusic.com Discover the Jumpstart Nature Podcast - entertaining and immersive, it's the nature fix we all need.Check past Nature's Archive episodes for amazing guests like Doug Tallamy, Elaine Ingham, and Rae Wynn-Grant, covering topics from bird migration to fungi to frogs and bats!

Talking about race in the theater has never been easy, and back in the late '80s and early '90s it could feel downright hostile. When conversations around representation and casting came up, especially on Broadway, they often turned into battles where the establishment closed ranks and those pushing for change were left on the outside. ⁠Last time⁠, we explored one of the most heated examples of that tension: the uproar over Miss Saigon casting a white actor, Jonathan Pryce, in the role of a Vietnamese character. For playwright David Henry Hwang, that experience of protesting against the system and losing left scars he would eventually process through his art. Fresh off the success of M. Butterfly, he set out to write a farce called Face Value, a play built on mistaken racial identities and inspired directly by that controversy. But unlike his earlier triumph, this one stumbled badly—closing in previews and becoming one of Broadway's most infamous flops. Today we'll look back at how Face Value came to be, why it collapsed so quickly, and how even in failure it left its mark on the conversation around race and representation on stage. --- Click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for a transcript and list of all resources used.

Melissa discusses how, despite modern scepticism, many people still adhere to traditional practices, leaving offerings for fairies to gain their goodwill. In a particularly striking encounter in an English park, Melissa and a friend unexpectedly came across a green mist and a winged fairy.  We discuss how these magical experiences often happen when we're open to them, suggesting a deeper connection to the world around us. We explore the significance of fairy circles and the cultural beliefs surrounding them, learning how different cultures across the globe maintain a connection to fairy lore through rituals and offerings—highlighting a universal bond to nature and the supernatural. Melissa describes her special connection to the Cruikshank Botanical Gardens, and its serene arboretum, which she describes as a 'fairyland' and finds inspiration for her fairy poetry and senses the resident nature spirits.I'm sure you will be captivated by her stories of her fairy experiences and her passion for researching fairies!Join us in this enchanting episode that promises to inspire and ignite your imagination and let your spirit wander through the fairy realms!**Contact the Show:** clairefairywhisperer@gmail.com**Show Notes:** www.thefairywhispering.com**Follow the Magic:** www.instagram.com/fairywhisperingpodcast**Have you seen a fairy?** Share your sightings with the Fairy Census: Fairy Census Submission**Music Credits:**- Intro Music: "Forest of Butterflies" by Twelve Trees- Outro Music: Autumn Beauty Reverie by Claire Casely

EPISODE 597 - Kate Woodworth - Little Great Island, A Story of a Commuity of fishing families to the lobsters and the butterflies impacted by Climate ChangeKate Woodworth is the award-winning author of the novel Racing into the Dark, which Publishers Weekly said, “hits the mark repeatedly with emotional truths and fluid prose” and which Kirkus Reviews called, “vivid and honest, dramatic and without pat resolutions: an impressive debut”.A passionate lover of the natural world, Kate is the author of essays on the impact of climate change on fishing and farming that have been published by the Climate Fiction Writers League and on her Substack, “Food in the Time of Climate Change.” Her novel about love, community, and climate change, Little Great Island, has been called “an extraordinary achievement and a pure pleasure to read” by National Book Award and PEN/Faulkner Award winner Ha Jin. Kate is the founder and creative force behind “Be the Butterfly”, a grassroots climate action initiative that invites everyone to do one small thing to help mitigate climate change. Kate received her MFA from Boston University.Little Great IslandOn Little Great Island, climate change is disrupting both life and love.After offending the powerful pastor of the cult where she's lived for a decade, Mari McGavin must flee with her six-year-old son. With no money and no place else to go, she returns to the tiny Maine island where she grew up—a place she swore she'd never see again. There Mari runs into her lifelong friend Harry Richardson, one of the island's summer residents, now back himself to sell his family's summer home. Mari and Harry's lives intertwine once again, setting off a chain of events as unexpected and life altering as the shifts in climate affecting the whole ecosystem of the island…from generations of fishing families to the lobsters and the butterflies.Little Great Island  illustrates in microcosm the greatest changes of our time and the unyielding power of love.“An uplifting and grown-up novel in which two lost souls find love and purpose”—Kirkus Reviews“…utterly grounded and achingly empathetic, developed with gorgeous, flowing prose and a steady, sometimes heart-wrenching plot.”—Booklisthttps://katewoodworth.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Building Resourceful in Kids – September Table Talk - #206: In this month's table talk episode, our three cohosts chat through the discussion questions found in this year's Make It Awkward curriculum video by David Thomas and Sissy Goff.  Some notable quotes from this episode include:“We so want an easy, comfortable life, but it is the hard things that teach us that resilience and resourcefulness.” - Jennifer “When we look at our own lives and realize that out of these hard things, good came out of it. That can help us trust God with our kids and knowing that he has things to teach them. We don't want to rob them of those things, as hard as it is sometimes.” -Andrea  “We want to leave space for God to work.” - Sherri We'd love to connect with you!

Each week on the podcast we'll spend a few minutes introducing a question, let you in on how we've processed it and invite you to go and do the same. Typically we'll take a few minutes to set you up with a question for your date night but in this episode we want to discuss “What Is One Thing I Do That Makes You Blush or Get Butterflies?”

Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with my friend and fellow author interviewer, Sara DiVello. Sara is a thriller author, and creator and host of Mystery and Thriller Mavens, a popular author interview series and interactive Facebook group. We met at the San Diego Writers Festival and have since become friends. Sara's boundless energy and verve for life and literature are contagious. Sara is a gem!Have you ever stumbled upon the ruins of a castle in suburban America? For Sara DiVello, that chance discovery sparked a decade-long journey to uncover one of the Jazz Age's most fascinating unsolved murders.Sara shares the remarkable story behind her historical thriller, Broadway Butterfly. The book resurrects the forgotten 1923 murder of Dot King, a case that implicated one of America's wealthiest families and exposed the complex social dynamics of Prohibition-era New York.With candor and warmth, Sara reveals her own compelling journey from corporate burnout to published author. After a pivotal moment watching her mother face terminal illness, Sara confronted the question we all eventually face: if time were limited, would you spend it as you are now? This revelation led her to abandon her stable but unfulfilling career to pursue writing, with yoga teaching providing both financial support and the mental clarity essential for creativity.What makes this conversation truly exceptional is Sara's deep dive into her meticulous research process. Drawing from over 1,800 primary sources, she reconstructed not just the crime but the textured world of 1920s Manhattan—from the cigarette-littered floors of newspaper offices to the complex racial dynamics facing Black Americans who had migrated north. Her approach to writing characters outside her own experience, particularly Ella Bradford (a Black woman in 1923), demonstrates remarkable care and ethical consideration.Sara illuminates the eerie parallels between 1923 and today. "How much has changed and how little has changed," she observes, noting society's persistent fixation on controlling women's bodies and choices, and our collective reluctance to confront uncomfortable historical truths.Ready to discover why forgotten stories like Dot King's matter now more than ever? Listen now, and consider what voices from our past still deserve to be heard.Support the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

Today, I sit down with Steven Puri, an Academy Award-winning Hollywood executive turned burnout prevention advocate. Steven's journey from the glittering heights of Hollywood success to discovering profound truths about sustainable achievement is absolutely insightful, and I know his revelations will resonate deeply with so many of you who are pushing hard but feeling like you're not progressing.What struck me most about our conversation was Steven's raw honesty about his experience in the entertainment industry—from the soul-nourishing culture at DreamWorks to the energy-draining environment at Fox that nearly broke him. His story beautifully illustrates something I see with so many of my clients: that invisible exhaustion that comes from pouring your precious life force into work that doesn't align with your values.Here's what you'll discover in this informative episode: ✅ How a chance encounter with a yoga teacher in the middle of an Indian forest became Steven's wake-up call to break free from the burnout cycle and reclaim his authentic path ✅ The surprising science behind "dopamine management" and why understanding your brain's reward system is crucial for avoiding the energy-draining traps of our digital world ✅ Steven's powerful revelation about flow states—those magical moments when time disappears and high-quality work happens effortlessly—and practical techniques you can use to access them consistently ✅ Why the "other thing" principle is essential for creativity, and how giving your executive mind something else to focus on unlocks your subconscious problem-solving abilities ✅ Simple but profound strategies for staying productive without burning out, including the game-changing approach of focusing on just three priorities instead of overwhelming yourself with endless to-do listsWhat I absolutely love about Steven's approach is how he combines his engineering background with deep spiritual wisdom to create practical solutions for modern burnout. His Sukha app and methodology aren't just about working harder—they're about working in harmony with your natural rhythms and energy patterns.https://thesukha.co.  email at steven@thesukha.coGet The Net and the Butterfly by Cabane and Pollack  about breakthrough thinking as mentioned in the episodeShow notes at https://www.breakfreefromtheburnout.comGet your breakthrough quantum call: https://www.scientifichealer.com/quantum Liked this episode?
