We were thrilled to record a live episode of You Are What You Read at PEN America's World Voices Festival with bestselling authors Jodi Picoult and Fiona Davis. This was a conversation about women in literature… in both books and in publishing. Jodi talks about her latest novel, By Any Other Name, a story about two women, centuries apart—one of whom is the real author of Shakespeare's plays—who are both forced to hide behind another name. Fiona tells us about her novel, The Stolen Queen, set in 1978 when two women team up to find one of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's missing Egyptian artifacts. We'd like to thank PEN America for hosting us for this conversation. We are thrilled to share it with you today. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this episode of PAW's Book Club podcast, we ask bestselling author and playwright Jodi Picoult '87 about her latest book, “By Any Other Name,” which presents readers with a hypothesis: Could Emilia Bassano, a woman who really lived in Tudor England, have written some of the most famous plays attributed to William Shakespeare? Picoult discusses why she believes it, how her book has been received by scholars and fans, and the experiences she's personally had with the persistent misogyny in the theater world.

Would it be but more fun to be in cozy sweats with some really great music? Would you have more fun to have your favorite beverage. I don't know. What would make it more pleasurable? Would it be more fun if your partner was naked? I don't know these things. You can try them out. Lesley Logan 0:16 Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:58 Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the pleasurable convo I have with Jordin Wiggins. Dr. Jordin Wiggins, to be exact, in our last episode, if you haven't yet listened to that one, you have missed out. And you can listen to that one after you listen to this one, or pause this one. Listen to that one. You know, whatever you want to do. It's easy. They're all here for you. Brad Crowell 1:20 Do it. All the things. Lesley Logan 1:21 Yeah, before we get into that, today is Thursday, October 10th, and it's World Mental Health Day. I also wanted to say it's really hard to choose, because there's actually a lot of world days. Normally there's like, a World Day. Brad Crowell 1:32 Yeah, there's a lot. Lesley Logan 1:32 There was a lot of world days, including information on world homelessness problem, some other things. Brad also saw a vegan burger thing. So, you know, but the World Mental Health Day felt like it encompassed most of the other world days. So World Mental Health Day is October 10th and as our understanding of mental health grows, we grow along with it. Mental Health has come a long way since the early 90s, when the World Federation of Mental Health, WFMH, officially established the day. Our self-awareness and sensitivity towards it have changed things for the better. Our language surrounding mental health has improved as words like crazy and lunatic are used less flippantly, and we come to better understand that can be unintentionally hurtful and stigmatizing. While we've learned a lot, there's still so much more we can do to evolve as a society.Brad Crowell 2:20 Yeah, I feel like that's a good description. You know, when we were younger, in the 90s, Lesley Logan 2:26 People use the R-word. Brad Crowell 2:27 They did. They did. Lesley Logan 2:28 Just to, like, say something was like, this cup, you know?Brad Crowell 2:32 Or, you know, I still think the word insane is thrown out there really a lot. I mean, we don't know that many people who are truly insane. So I guess. Lesley Logan 2:40 Given, given the current climate we are in, there are a particular person who is making me use some of these words in the like, towards that person, without them having been tested, and I feel really bad about it. But also, what else do we say? Yeah, which is why, you know what? Maybe why weird is there. But also I just really, I do agree, like, growing up, no one really talked about mental health, and was kind of rare that anyone would go see a therapist, and all of this stuff, and now.Brad Crowell 3:15 Or it was, like, awkward, and say, oh you're seeing a therapist?Lesley Logan 3:19 (inaudible) get things done. And you had to rally all the time. And now we can Brad Crowell 3:23 I mean, in things like ADHD, you know, and ADD. Lesley Logan 3:26 Right. But also, like, it's so easy. I've, you know, like, friends that you love who really care about you be like, hey, can we catch up. It's like, you know, I'm taking a mental health day. They're not like, oh, you're bailing on me again. People just go, okay, it's actually really seen to be a positive thing. And also, sometimes I would people don't take care of the Mental Health I'm like, what is going on with you? Like, why aren't you taking care of yourself? This is the world we live in where you can. So I think it's really cool. Lesley Logan 3:52 And also I will say, I just want to say, it is World Homelessness day. Please look at where you are and see what you can do to help because especially in the States, the Supreme Court just made it legal for towns to make it illegal to be homeless. And so I don't know how the fuck they think these people are going to bring into society if they go to jail for being homeless, and then guess what? They can't get an apartment. How are they going to get most jobs? I have so many problems about this so and as someone who's been without address a few times. If you have judgment towards people who are homeless, I ask you to check that, because there's a lot of different reasons people are homeless. Not every homeless person doesn't have a job. Oftentimes it's because it's really hard to get affordable housing near where they work. And if you live in a really nice neighborhood and you're like, there's fucking homeless here, well, guess who is going to work at your subway? How can they afford to live close and in that neighborhood? So we need to really invest in city planning and taking a look at these things and really making sure that mental health facilities and support systems are invested in because that is who is helping the homeless. Okay, I'll get off my little soapbox. Brad Crowell 5:01 Okay, well, upcoming here in next February, Lesley and I are going to be back in Cambodia. We are currently in Cambodia right now, literally hosting a retreat as we speak. So obviously, recorded this ahead of time, but it is literally one of our most favorite things to do in the world, and I say that being on the other side of the world right now. Lesley Logan 5:22 While you're listening to this, we are at a lotus farm. Brad Crowell 5:24 That's right, yeah, no, it's, that's actually exactly where we are. We're literally at a lotus farm. We are. Lesley Logan 5:29 We're making flowers and necklaces. Brad Crowell 5:31 Yeah. And we are floating on a lake with lotuses all over the, all over it. It is stunningly beautiful. Lesley Logan 5:37 At sunset. Brad Crowell 5:38 Yeah, yeah. And you too could join us next February. We're gonna do it again. So it is gorgeous, amazing. It's inspirational. It will change your perspective on so many things when you see how other people live their lives, and the people of Cambodia are so friendly and open and just nice and kind, and we get to go not only meet them, see them, experience their food and culture, but then we get to explore something that is truly incredible, the eighth wonder of the world, the temple of Angkor Wat. It is the largest religious structure on the planet Earth. It is unbelievable. It is literally temples in the middle of the jungle that have been reconstructed here now. And you got to see it. It's a bucket list thing. So we want you to come with us, go to crowsnestretreats.com, crowsnestretreats.com. What do we got coming next? Lesley Logan 6:26 Well, when we come back, I, you know, continue to ready myself for the accessory shoot, which is going to be in LA. Someone's going to be in LA for a week, doing some work and just preparing my strength and stamina for some of the exercise we've take pictures of. I'm so excited for this. This is actually going to be a really cool shoot. We're actually using another studio for the guillotine in there. So if you want the accessories deck, which is the sixth deck, and the final deck in the flash card decks, this is the last one. And I don't see us doing a prequel or a spin-off, this is like, this is it. This is the last installment. Brad Crowell 7:00 Yeah, I think so. I'm pretty sure. Lesley Logan 7:01 I know somebody else, like, somebody already thought, like, you do an expansion deck, and I was like, we're not doing that. Don't just. Nope. But never say never. So here's the deal, go to opc.me/flashcardwaitlist, because only those on the waitlist get access to the presale price. The presale price is a short time window, sometime in the 2025 year, and then you wait while we wait for them to print and ship to you, and you get them for the best price. So opc.me/flashcardwaitlist. Brad Crowell 7:27 Yep, yep, yep. Next up, I am hosting a webinar coming up really soon, called the Pilates Studio Growth Accelerator. Go to prfit.biz/accelerator. That's profit without the O dot biz slash accelerator, if you're feeling at all stuck in your business, if you are wondering why you can't bring in more clients or make the money that you want to be making, we're going to be covering all those things. Lesley and I have coached more than 2000 businesses through our agency coaching program, and we boiled it down to these three big secrets, y'all, and I'm going to be digging into them live with you on this free webinar. So go to prfit.biz/accelerator. And finally.Lesley Logan 8:08 Last up for the year. The last thing of the year is the winter tour, and actually goes into the new year. So we actually kick off the year on tour. Brad Crowell 8:15 On the road. Lesley Logan 8:16 And we're doing 23 cities, and like 35 days. We want to see you. We're probably going to be somewhere where you live, and maybe somewhere you're visiting. And so yes, you can come to multiple cities. We had one person do three stops in the summer tour. Brad Crowell 8:26 We did.Lesley Logan 8:27 And several people do two stops on the summer tour. So go to opc.me/tour to make sure you don't miss out on when we release the cities. Brad Crowell 8:33 Love it. All right. Before we get into it here, pretty soon, we're going to be covering what Dr. Jordin Wiggins was digging into about pleasure, which I thought was really cool. But before we get there, let's get to the audience question today. Instagram, we have Professional Acro on Instagram asked, hey, in your YouTube videos, do you have an intermediate level chair 1-2 in order? And also, quick questions, please. If there are any special order for the Spine Corrector. Thank you so much. So it's kind of a twofer, right there.Lesley Logan 9:07 She has a twofer in there, like, how she snuck it in. So Joe Pilates did, and by the way, I sometimes say Joseph, but then I hear Jay on my shoulder. His name is Joe, not Joseph. I mean, it was, he was born Joseph. But there's like, a special like, just like, just like he was blue collar. It's Joe, right? Brad Crowell 9:26 He's Joe. Lesley Logan 9:26 So Joe Pilates did not have an order on the Chair or the Spine Corrector. Now, there are series that can have orders to them. On the Wunda Chair, there isn't really like, except for footwork, there isn't really, like, any order to any of the other series you, I mean, obviously the press down series, you can do front side crossover. That's typically what people do, because it makes a lot of sense. But you can also just do side just to cross over. So there's that. On the Spine Corrector there are, there is the leg series, and there's the arm series. And they have an order, which, by the way, are in the barrels deck (inaudible) and that is out. It has been shipping for a while now. I'm so excited about it. So that those do have orders and the series. But again, you omit what's not appropriate for your practice yet, and then you stay in that order. But the other thing about Joe was that he didn't have the levels. So I definitely don't have what you're looking for.Brad Crowell 10:18 There were no levels when Joseph Pilates created contrology.Lesley Logan 10:22 No, I mean, what I tell people in my mentorship program is like, if it's overhead, it's obviously not something to teach someone who's new. There you go. And then if it requires two spine shapes in it, then it might actually be a little bit more difficult than exercise that require one spine shape in it, so that really helps you kind of go, which exercise should I teach first? Just a little common sense. So I don't have what you're asking for on YouTube, but I have everything that exists on the Wunda Chair that Joe taught, and on the Spine Corrector and everything else that Joseph Pilates created as a free video in any of the playlists on the channel, and also, almost all are on the flashcards. The accessories deck is coming.Brad Crowell 11:05 Yeah. And they're also collected really nicely and neatly in one location on our website. So if you go to onlinepilatesclasses.com and go to the tutorials, you will find the section specifically for the chair that you might be looking at, because we've got them broken down across the different types of chairs, even so you could just go to the site and see them all collected together in one place. Yeah. Great question. Thanks for asking that. If you have a question, you can actually text us, 310-905-5534, 310-905-5534. If you live outside of the States, or you just use Instagram more often. Just ping us at the Be It Pod on IG or, obviously, on YouTube. So thanks so much, and stick around. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 11:49 Okay, now let's talk about Dr. Jordin Wiggins. Dr. Jordin Wiggins is a Naturopathic Doctor, Pleasure and Intimacy Coach. She's the author of The Pink Canary and host of the Pleasure Principles podcast. She is dedicated to helping high-achieving women heal feminine burnout and reconnect with their pleasure, empowering them to transform their health and their happiness. I thought this was really cool, because I didn't understand this idea of feminine burnout versus non feminine burnout, and she didn't exactly like clinically describe what that means. But I do. I have a lot, I have a feeling has a lot to do with hormones, too. So, yeah. Lesley Logan 12:26 Well, because she talks about, like, burnout, it leads into constant cortisol production. And when cortisol is high, we know this from a hormone podcast we listen to Brad, progesterone is low. Remember? Right. (inaudible)Brad Crowell 12:41 Progesterone is what helps you sleep and helps you (inaudible).Lesley Logan 12:46 Around your body. It's so awesome. It can make the hormone. It can, like, lead you into your cycle in, like, a great way, or not a great way. Brad Crowell 12:53 Yeah, the cortisol is important. You need it, but, like, we overproduce it because we jack ourselves up with stress and with caffeine and all these other things, and we're just basically out of balance.Lesley Logan 13:04 Yeah, for sure. So here's what's so great. We have an agency member who went on vacation, and she took extra time, and then she found herself in anxiety on the extra days. And now I'm discovering what she didn't do is microdose pleasure, which is what Dr Jordin Wiggins tells us to do. Brad Crowell 13:19 Interesting. Lesley Logan 13:19 She says when you're experiencing feminine burnout, the pleasure center in your brain is turned off. So if you gave yourself all these extra days off, and you've never had them before, you kind of put yourself in a stressful place, because actually, is it going to feel safe? So she, what Dr. Jordin Wiggins is telling us is start to microdose our pleasure slowly and turn up the dial to get it turned back on. That's amazing. Brad Crowell 13:40 Yeah, so there's a clinical, there's a clinical name for this, where pleasure symptoms are turned off. Yeah, that's right, Anhedonia. Lesley Logan 13:48 Anhedonia. We talked there's a great part of the podcast you want to go listen to, like she discovered what that was, and it's the inability to feel pleasure and joy. Brad Crowell 13:55 Yeah, yeah, which is kind of insane, like we chase what makes us feel good, which is usually checking a thing off a list, right? But there comes a point where you're just maxed out on a, on that, and that could take, you know, it seems like that could take a long time to get to, but once you're there, what do you do? You know, you're just stuck, right? So I think it's pretty, pretty interesting to What did she say? Microdose. Lesley Logan 14:17 Microdose. Brad Crowell 14:18 Microdose pleasure to help reintroduce this idea, and just so that y'all know, she did talk about sex, she did talk about the intimacy and physical pleasure, but she also talked about more than just that. She said, that's, of course, part of it, but that's not, that's not what the only part of the conversation we're talking about here. What can bring you joy? What can bring you pleasure from having a glass of water? What can bring you joy from taking a morning walk, enjoying the breeze, like, you know, these other things. Lesley Logan 14:45 Like, if you are going for your morning walk. I did my morning walk, okay, check, go sit in the front of the sunshine, check, like, if you are not actually Brad Crowell 14:53 Got that vitamin D, what's next? Lesley Logan 14:54 Enjoying the moment, I really love when I get lost on a walk and I come back and I'm like, oh, I didn't, because I normally go on Instagram and go, good morning, happy Tuesday. A lot of times lately I just fucking got home go, oh, hey guys, it was a great walk. You missed it. You missed it. It was so pleasurable. I had such a good time.Brad Crowell 15:16 That is, that's pretty funny. Lesley Logan 15:17 What did you love? Brad Crowell 15:18 Okay, so she talked about recognizing burnout, and she explained that hormones a lot of the time, they are a lag indicator, meaning burnout and stress have already impacted the body before hormone imbalances actually show up. It's like they're behind the eight ball here, y'all, another analogy there. But while hormone imbalance and adrenal dysfunction occur, it is compounded, and then it is layered, okay? So by the time you're actually realizing that you're in this place, it has been happening for a while, and it is compounded and it is layered. Okay, so that is, that's a problem. How do we then unfuck that? Basically, right? She emphasized resilience comes from a regulated nervous system, a well-regulated nervous system can handle stress without leading to those hormone imbalances. But one year past that point already, what do you do to come back, right? And that comes right back to what you're talking about, microdosing that joy. Microdosing pleasure. I don't really understand why this is feminine only, because this seems very applicable to me, too. You know I, you know. Lesley Logan 16:22 Jordin, if you're listening, we would like to know. Actually, I, the time we're recording this, tomorrow I'm actually on her podcast. So, not tomorrow in the time you're listening, guys, but the tomorrow and the time that Brad and I are here. Brad Crowell 16:34 Oh, well, you can ask. Lesley Logan 16:35 I'll then ask her. Brad Crowell 16:35 Great. Lesley Logan 16:36 I'll ask her for you. I'll say hey, Brad would like to know why. Brad Crowell 16:39 I would love to know. I would absolutely love to know, because I think that we have adrenals, it's like. Lesley Logan 16:44 And it's also possible, like, she studies women, and she's in a women's clinic, and so that's why she can't just say it's.Brad Crowell 16:50 Yeah, maybe, and she specifically, that's her ICA. Lesley Logan 16:52 Masculine burnout, I don't know. But also, like. Brad Crowell 16:55 That's her ideal client avatar, if y'all (inaudible) study. Lesley Logan 16:58 Yeah, yeah. But also, like, it might just be where she's had more experience in the medicine world she might not have (inaudible) I don't know. Brad Crowell 17:05 Yeah, a well-regulated nervous system can handle stress without leading to hormone imbalances. So how do you get a well-regulated nervous system? She said resilience, right? And we didn't really have a deep conversation about resilience, so I think that's another great question to ask her is, like, how do you build resilience? How do you create a well-regulated nervous system through resilience? What does that actually mean? I'd be interested to learn more.Lesley Logan 17:29 Okay, Dr. Jordin Wiggins. Brad Crowell 17:31 We got notes. We got notes. Lesley Logan 17:32 Apparently, we have more questions. I didn't do a great job. There's two important questions. We'd like you to come back.Brad Crowell 17:38 It's all good. I wasn't gonna rag on you, my dear, you're amazing.Lesley Logan 17:42 I am amazing, but I missed that. So yes, okay.Brad Crowell 17:45 Well, we're gonna dig in even more about what Dr. Jordin Wiggins said in the Be It Action Items. So stick around. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 17:52 Welcome back. All right. Let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Dr. Jordin Wiggins? She said hey, pull out your phone. Make a note of things that you can do to help microdose your pleasure. More specifically, make a list of pleasurable activities, right? So when you have built in that downtime for your day, you can pull out your note and you could say what do I actually want to do? She talked about doing a puzzle, reading a book. She didn't mention it, but we did, taking a walk, you know, we. Lesley Logan 18:27 Yeah, I think, I don't know if I talked about this with her, but when my therapist was trying to get me to, like, not work all the time, she was like, okay, I said, I've got the time blocked out. I have time to do nothing, and I can't do nothing. And so she said write down all the things you could do and then just look at it go, when that time comes go, of these things what do I want to do? So you could do the same thing here, you'll make a big list of like, what would feel pleasurable to you? Maybe it's like having a chocolate bar and a glass of wine. I don't know.Brad Crowell 18:55 I mean, that's pleasurable. She talked about reading erotic books, especially if. Lesley Logan 19:00 You guys could read Eliza David's erotic novels. Remember her from the pod? Kellee Forkenbrock, she writes erotic novels that are with a. Brad Crowell 19:08 They were on Amazon for.Lesley Logan 19:10 For like a fucking dollar. Brad Crowell 19:11 That's what I was gonna say, I didn't want to, I didn't wanna throw it out there without confirming. But yeah, I think there was a whole conversation in the last episode about sex being like a chore, checking it off. Okay, did that. Now, I don't have to worry about it, you know? And there's part of this microdosing, microdosing pleasure, that can help rekindle some, like, actual interest. And so reading a book on that can be good.Lesley Logan 19:34 Also, there are so many novels now that don't look like the ones that were sold at grocery stores. That was just like, my grandma always bought all of those.Brad Crowell 19:39 Like, some dude who's some jack dude in front of (inaudible). Lesley Logan 19:42 You mean, Fabio? You mean, like, just Fabio? Brad Crowell 19:44 Yeah or Fabio with long golden hair. Lesley Logan 19:46 Oh, my God, every time Fabio would come to the gym. Brad Crowell 19:48 For those YouTubers. Lesley Logan 19:49 I couldn't look at Fabio. I couldn't look at Fabio because, like, he's on like, the cover of half my grandmother's books, you know what I mean. Or, like, some (inaudible) but also, like, you can microdose it. I'm reading Jodi Picoult's book. My first time reading Jodi Picoult, I'm reading By Any Other Name, and there are some micromoments of erotic pleasure in there. And I was like, oh, this is a fun book. And then I'm like, maybe that, maybe there. So I don't know if you have a fun erotic novel that I should be reading that is not 50 shades of anything. Send it my way. Brad Crowell 20:19 Yeah, reach out. Lesley Logan 20:20 Anyways, go. That's a Be It Action Item. I think it's also fun. Also, like. Brad Crowell 20:23 Yeah, what about you? Lesley Logan 20:23 I'm sure it can also be art. It can be a lot of things. So it doesn't have to be those things. Brad Crowell 20:27 I mean, pleasure can even be taking a break, right? Like we. Lesley Logan 20:32 I, do you know what I do every morning that I find pleasurable? Brad Crowell 20:34 Tell me. Lesley Logan 20:35 I don't do it every day of every year, but in this moment, what I'm finding pleasure in is doing the diffusers. We have two in the house. Brad Crowell 20:42 Oh, I noticed them. (inaudible)Lesley Logan 20:43 And I also do my humidifier for my beautiful plants. And then sometimes during the day, I'm like, this just feels boring. And I'm like, what would make this more fun? Or what would this make, would this work more pleasurable? And I will find a playlist that I want to listen to, and I don't listen to my earbuds. I listen to it on a speaker. Brad Crowell 21:01 In the room. Lesley Logan 21:02 In the room, so it takes up this ambiance, and it's so fun. Brad Crowell 21:06 That's cool. That's pleasure. What's your biggest takeaway? Lesley Logan 21:09 Okay, so we talked about this, but she, this is a Be It Action Item for you. And here it is. Ask yourself how can I make this moment more pleasure? Brad Crowell 21:16 That's right. Lesley Logan 21:16 So you can take a list of things that could be pleasurable, or how could I make the moment right now more pleasurable, the moment that I'm in in this moment. And pleasure can be erotic, or it can just be pleasure is also another word for joy, fun, enjoyment. So if you have to clean the kitchen, like, what can make that more pleasurable? Would it be but more fun to be in, like, cozy sweats with some really great music? Would it be more fun to like, have your favorite beverage? I don't know. Like, what would make it more pleasurable? Would it be more fun if your partner was naked. I don't know these things. Try them out. And then she said incorporate small pleasurable tweaks into daily life. So what little tweaks, little microdoses, can we do to feel better? So start with microdoses. This is a Be It Till You See it, not a like, 100% it. And by the way, Erin Hatzikostas' 50% Rule, and apply it to pleasure in this moment, and I bet you'll have a little bit more pleasurable moments. I'm just saying.Brad Crowell 22:06 I love it. Lesley Logan 22:07 So take a listen to Dr. Jordin Wiggins and if you like her, you can go listen to the episode I'm going to be on on her podcast. I don't know what we're talking about.Brad Crowell 22:17 It's called Pleasure Principles. Like, the pod. We'll put the link in the show notes. Lesley Logan 22:22 Yeah, we will.

Brad Crowell 22:35 I want to know how many of you are going to make your husband be naked in the kitchen? Lesley Logan 22:39 Okay, you don't. Do you really want to know this, Brad? No, you don't. He's joking. He's joking. He's joking. Also.Brad Crowell 22:49 That's just funny. Lesley Logan 22:51 We have these like.Brad Crowell 22:53 I might not ever be able to meet your husband.Lesley Logan 22:54 No, don't tell. Brad Crowell 22:55 So, don't tell me. Lesley Logan 22:56 Don't tell him, uh, keep it to yourself. That's what's pleasurable about it. But we do have, I'm gonna keep, not keep this to myself, we have this film on the glass that like you can't really see in our house unless it's at night when the lights are on. And sometimes I think you forget that. Brad Crowell 23:11 Me? Lesley Logan 23:12 Yes. Brad Crowell 23:14 Maybe.Lesley Logan 23:14 Because we don't have any window treatments.Brad Crowell 23:17 Not telling y'all where I live.Lesley Logan 23:19 Oh, okay. Also, hopefully our neighbors don't listen. Um, my dad asked if one of our neighbors still is naked in the backyard. And I said, not that I've seen because I don't look there. Since I know that.Brad Crowell 23:33 I'm pretty sure he must have seen me on the roof and been like, well, last time we're doing this. Lesley Logan 23:37 No, it's not because my dad saw him back there, walk out, go into their fish pond, grab a fish out with his hand, and, like, walk back in the house, totally naked. Brad Crowell 23:45 What? I love this guy.Lesley Logan 23:47 Yeah, here's what I want to say. I was like, well, dad, he wants his tanning even. But here's what I just want to say, he has no fucks to give. That is pleasurable for him, and there's no shame in it. I'm not looking because it's not pleasurable for me. Brad Crowell 23:59 I mean, he's like, 75 so, yeah. Lesley Logan 24:01 Minimum. So what I would just say is, like, walk around your house naked. Brad Crowell 24:05 That's awesome. Lesley Logan 24:05 You know what? Walk in your backyard naked. It's if people see it, they were looking in your yard. Brad Crowell 24:10 That's right. Lesley Logan 24:11 And your windows.

By Any Other Name by Jodi Picoult. Told in two timelines, one in the 16th century and one in the present (well, almost present – the action takes place against Covid, just as there was a plague back in the earlier timeframe) – the premise being that women have been, and in the modern world are often, still unable to be credited for work which is presented as being done by men when in fact the women were the creators but have no voice. Jodi places much of the action around Shakespeare and posits that a woman named Emelia Bassano was actually the writer of his plays and sonnets but that the only way for them to be performed and published was to do so under his name. An enormous amount of research has clearly gone into this and it's one of the most interesting and thought provoking books she's done in a very long time. Safe Enough by Lee Child. Twenty short stories by Lee Child, who proves that he's not a one-series wonder with the Jack Reacher books – but in fact it's clear reading these that they could also easily come from the same pen, and I think would be enjoyed by all Reacher fans. Easy to read as they're bite sized stories and it's a book you can pick up and put down without losing your place. The themes and characterisations are really clever. Quite macho as you'd expect from the Reacher creator, but a great addition to his oeuvre. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tiger, Tiger: His Life, as It's Never Been Told Before by James Patterson James Patterson--the only major author to have nine holes-in-one--gets inside the mystery of Tiger Woods as only he can. How did Tiger become the G.O.A.T., what drove him to fall so spectacularly, and how has he made his way back to the pinnacle of golf? In Patterson's hands, Tiger's story is an unputdownable thriller. On April 13, 1986, ten-year-old Tiger Woods watches his idol, Jack Nicklaus, win his record sixth Masters. Just over a decade later, chants of "Ti-ger, Ti-ger!" ring out as the twenty- one-year-old wins his first Green Jacket. He blazes an incredible path, winning fourteen major titles (second only to Nicklaus himself) by the time he's thirty- three, smashing records and raising standards. Then come multiple public scandals and potentially career-ending injuries. The once-assured champion becomes an all-American underdog. "YouTube golfer" is how his two children know their father--winless since 2013--until he wins the 2019 Masters, his fifteenth major, before their eyes. But the story doesn't end there. Tiger, Tiger is the first full-scale Woods biography of the decade. In James Patterson's hands, this story is a hole-in- one thriller. By Any Other Name by Jodi Picoult In 1581, Emilia Bassano—like most young women of her day—is allowed no voice of her own. But as the Lord Chamberlain's mistress, she has access to all theater in England, and finds a way to bring her work to the stage secretly. And yet, creating some of the world's greatest dramatic masterpieces comes at great cost: by paying a man for the use of his name, she will write her own out of history. In the present, playwright Melina Green has just written a new work inspired by the life of her Elizabethan ancestor Emilia Bassano. Although the challenges are different four hundred years later, the playing field is still not level for women in theater. Would Melina—like Emilia—be willing to forfeit her credit as author, just for a chance to see her work performed? Told in intertwining narratives, this sweeping tale of ambition, courage, and desire asks what price each woman is willing to pay to see their work live on—even if it means they will be forgotten.

Have you ever heard the rumor that Shakespeare didn't write his own plays? So had we, but By Any Other Name, the new novel by Jodi Picoult, may make the best case for it we have ever read. This novel puts forth a theory that Emilia Bassano wrote at least some of them, and she is an unforgettable character. This book succeeds on so many levels — a polemic, a great piece of feminist AND historical fiction, AND it's a page turner. This is the book Jodi says she was born to write…and we think it's her best to date.

In this episode of The First Fifty Pages, Kelsey and Jenn talk with perennial best-selling author Jodi Picoult about her new book, By Any Other Name. We dive into hidden histories, the dangers of book banning, and the things that keep us up at night.
Is it really true? Did the Elizabethan poet Emilia Bassano (sometimes known as Aemelia Lanyer) actually write Shakespeare's works? A bestselling novelist thinks so - and she's turned her research-based theories into an entertaining and thought-provoking work of fiction. In this episode, Jacke talks to Jodi Picoult about her new book BY ANY OTHER NAME, which tells the story of a modern-day playwright who discovers her ancestor Emilia Bassano's tantalizing connection to Shakespeare and the works traditionally ascribed to him. PLUS Allison Pataki (Finding Margaret Fuller) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read. Help support the show at patreon.com/literature or historyofliterature.com/donate.

Lisa Finucane reviews By Any Other Name by Jodi Picoult published by Allen & Unwin
An author with a pen game strong enough to reduce people to tears, Jodi Picoult has quite an extensive and well-loved body of work. She's written nearly 30 books, selling around 40 million copies, with fan favourites such as My Sister's Keeper, Mad Honey, and Wish You Were There flying off the shelves. Picoult writes across a diverse scope of genres, from thriller to romance to ghost stories, and her latest work steps into the world of historical fiction. By Any Other Name details the intertwining narrative of the woman many believe was the real playwright behind the work of William Shakespeare alongside a contemporary story of a New York author suffering the same fate of being silenced. Picoult joined Jack Tame for a chat about how this new story came to be, her love of Shakespeare, and the meticulous research she puts into the narratives she creates. "To me this is really a book about how women have been written out of history by the men who were writing it." LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jodi Picoult is the bestselling author of 30 novels, including landmark titles such as Mad Honey – her most recent 1 million-copy bestseller – Wish You Were Here, A Spark of Light, and Small Great Things. 40 million copies of her books are in print worldwide and have been translated into 34 languages. Her forthcoming novel is BY ANY OTHER NAME (on sale 8/20; Ballantine), described as novel about two women, centuries apart – one of whom is the real author of Shakespeare's plays – who are both forced to hide behind another name. #1 New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah said of the book, “You'll fall in love with Emilia Bassano, the unforgettable heroine based on a real woman that Picoult brings vividly to life in her brilliantly researched new novel.” Elle called it, “[An] inspiring work of feminist literature inspired by real historical accounts.” Jodi was also co-librettist for the stage musical adaptation of her young adult novel Between the Lines (which premiered Off-Broadway in Summer 2022), the co-librettist of the musical BREATHE, the co-librettist of the musical adaptation of The Book Thief, and she is currently at work on an adaptation of Austenland.

When Captain Kirk and his landing party respond to a distress call from an alien race called the Kelvans, they have the tables turned on them when they are immediately captured and held as hostages. The reason: high radiation levels in their own galaxy will eventually make life there impossible, so the Kelvans need the Enterprise to make the 300-year return journey back to their home world to deliver the message about this new galaxy that their race can conquer and occupy. Since the Kelvans have taken on human form, Captain Kirk's only hope in defeating them lies in engaging them on a human level and stirring up their newfound emotions, reactions and temptations. Written by D.C. Fontana and Jerome Bixby, "By Any Other Name" packs a lot into its 50-minute running time and really does have it all: action, suspense, drama, conflict, romance and -- in an abrupt and remarkably effective shift in tone -- humor (and lots of it). The result is an engaging, briskly-paced and very entertaining "Star Trek" classic that fully deserves to rank up there with the very best of them. Special guest: Mark A.

Quick note: Anthony requested this episode be titled "Would An Investor, By Any Other Name, Smell As Sweet?"... Dan requested that not be the title...We've talked about accredited vs non-accredited before, but we have some new context in this episode. There's been some recent grumbling over at the SEC that could seriously change the game. In today's episode, Anthony and Dan will discuss Gary Gensler, Chair of the SEC, and his new idea for the definition of an accredited investor.We're not sure the likelihood of this passing, but this new definition would have the net-worth requirement increase by 10x. That's right... the new net-worth requirement would then be $10 million. So listen in as we break this news down, and put it into context when it comes to being accredited vs non-accredited. All of this, and more, on another episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.Tweetable Quotes:"I'm your host, Anthony Bubba Gump Vicino joined as always by Dan." – Anthony Vicino"I can't point to any issues that would be solved, only reduced opportunities for people, which seems completely counterintuitive." – Dan KruegerLEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!Keep up with the podcast!

We spoke with Lauren Kate, author of By Any Other Name, a delightful turducken (Julie's word) of a rom com. You'll never guess where the story came from—how the B characters got so vivid—or why the Darcy-esque male lead is so (purposely, realistically) annoying. We also talking about sending someone your murdered darlings, writing YA *and* adult fiction, and how working in publishing informed her work. Lauren Kate is the #1 New York Times– and internationally bestselling author of nine novels for young adults, including Fallen, which was made into a major motion picture. Her books have been translated into more than thirty languages and have sold more than ten million copies worldwide. She is also the author of The Orphan's Song, her debut adult novel. By Any Other Name is her second adult novel. Kate lives in Los Angeles with her family. http://laurenkatebooks.net/
Kale and Rod are joined by Helena, a young woman who has gone through a harrowing personal journey. Her testimony takes us into the world of Tumblr and the alternate reality of fandom, social justice ideology, and transgenderism. At 15 she begins the process of becoming a trans person online and decides to become trans in "meat space," fighting with her parents and making the decision through "informed consent" to begin a regimen of testosterone. After a drawn out spiral she acknowledges that she's made a terrible mistake and begins the process of making sense out of what happened. She's a witness and a prophet.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community Friends of the Garden Meeting in Athens Georgia Register Here Historical Events 1779 Birth of the physician, botanist, and American statesman, Joel Roberts Poinsett. In the 1820s, President John Quincy Adams appointed Joel to serve as a US ambassador in Mexico. Joel was introduced to a beautiful plant that the Aztecs called the cuetlaxochitl ("qwet-la-SHO-chee-til”), but today it's better known as the Poinsettia (books about this topic). Like most euphorbias, the Poinsettia has a white sap that the Aztecs used to treat wounds and skin issues, which is how it got the common name "Skin Flower." In 1825, when Joel Poinsett sent clippings back home to South Carolina, botanists had new common names for the plant: "the Mexican Fire Plant" or "the Painted Leaf." The botanist Karl Wilenow ("Vill-ah-no") named the Poinsettia the Euphorbia pulcherrima. Pulcherrima means "very beautiful." By 1836, English newspapers were reporting on the Poinsettia in great detail: Poinsettia Pulcherrima.. are of the most brilliant rosy-crimson color, the splendor of which is quite dazzling. Few, if any of the most highly valued beauties of our gardens, can vie with this. Every year, we celebrate National Poinsettia Day on December 12th, the day Joel Poinsett died. 1859 Birth of Solomon Naumovich Rabinovich, better known under his pen name Sholem Aleichem ("Sholl-em A-LEK-em") (books about this person), Yiddish author and playwright. The musical Fiddler on the Roof (1964), was based on his stories. Sholom Aleichem wrote, It's as my mother says: If you want to learn how to grow cabbages, ask the gardener, not the goat. 1905 Birth of Geoffrey Grigson ("Jeffrey") (books about this person), British poet, and naturalist. Before publishing his own poems, Geoffrey edited a poetry magazine called New Verse. He once wrote: We do not feel, as Humphry Repton, the landscape gardener, felt in his epitaph, that our dust is going to turn into roses. Dust we believe simply to be dust. 1905 Birth of Alice O'Connor, Russian-American writer, and philosopher. Her pen name was Ayn Rand ("Eye-n Rand") (books about this person). She developed a philosophy called Objectivism. Her work The Fountainhead brought fame, but her 1957 novel Atlas Shrugged is considered her magnum opus. Ayn supported laissez-faire capitalism, and when she died in 1982, a 6-foot-tall dollar-sign floral arrangement was placed by her casket. 1887 On this day, Charles E. Bessey (books about this person), an American botanist and University of Nebraska botany professor. He helped pass the Hatch Act. The Act provides $15,000 for state land-grant colleges and universities in every state to establish experiment stations. Named for Congressman William Hatch, the experiment stations were the forerunner to state Cooperative Extension Services. Today, Hatch Act funding accounts for roughly ten percent of total funds for each experiment station. Nearly all Master Gardener programs in America offer training through a state land-grant university and its Cooperative Extension Service. Charles is remembered as America's greatest developer of botany education. His motto was, Science with Practice. Charles enjoyed plant science, but he never intended to become a botanist. He wanted to be a civil engineer and surveyor. But he agreed to pursue botany at the urging of his professors, and when he told the President of his school about his decision, he commented, Well, Bessey, I am glad of it, but you'll never be rich. Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation By Any Other Name by Simon Morley This book came out late in 2021, and the subtitle is A Cultural History of the Rose. Simon Morley is a British artist and art historian. He's now Assistant Professor of Fine Art at Dankook University, Republic of Korea. He is also a keen rose gardener. I've watched a number of interviews with Simon. He does a wonderful job of helping us understand the significance of the rose in our world - socially, politically, and religiously - and how we celebrate the rose in our writing and art. Originating in the middle east and Asia, roses were associated with Venus or Aphrodite, the goddess of love in ancient times. This early association with love is why roses are the flower of Valentine's day. In Western society, roses were bred in the early 1800s in France and then in the late 1800s in England. Both countries have a long and royal history with the rose. Today, the rose is the national flower for many countries, including America, Iran, Bulgaria, Ecuador, Iraq, Maldives, Romania, Slovakia, and England. Simon Morley's quest for a deeper understanding of the rose lead him to appreciate the duality in the meaning and symbolism of the rose. The rose offers incredible beauty and fragrance, but the prickles or thorns mean the rose can bring pain. This complexity of pleasure and pain gives the rose enhanced significance throughout history. This book is 304 pages of an examination and a celebration of the rose.

Botanic Spark 1942 Birth of John Winslow Irving (books about this person), American-Canadian novelist and screenwriter. John wrote The World According to Garp (1978). Since then, he has continued to write best-sellers like The Cider House Rules (1985), A Prayer for Owen Meany (1989), and A Widow for One Year (1998). Here's an excerpt from A Prayer For Owen Meany: And if she wore cocktail dresses when she labored in her rose garden, they were cocktail dresses that she no longer intended to wear to cocktail parties. Even in her rose garden, she did not want to be seen underdressed. If the dresses got too dirty from gardening, she threw them out. When my mother suggested to her that she might have them cleaned, my grandmother said, ‘What? And have those people at the cleaners wonder what I was doing in a dress to make it that dirty?' From my grandmother, I learned that logic is relative. Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.
Bestselling YA author Lauren Kate made her entrance into the adult arena with The Orphan's Song in 2019, and quickly won the hearts of historical fiction lovers. Now, Kate delivers a juicy enemies-to-lovers romance about an editor, her bestselling author, and one life-changing secret with BY ANY OTHER NAME. Though not entirely autobiographical, Kate did base BY ANY OTHER NAME on a true story that happened in her twenties, and on other true stories that have happened to her since. This novel is a fresh direction for Kate and we know her take on how sometimes, rather than falling, we rise in love will delight readers both old and new. From # 1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Kate comes an enemies-to-lovers romance about an editor, her bestselling author, and one life-changing secret. What she doesn't know about love could fill a book. With a successful career as a romance editor, and an engagement to a man who checks off all ninety-nine boxes on her carefully curated list, Lanie's more than good. She's killing it. Then she's given the opportunity of a lifetime: to work with world-renowned author and her biggest inspiration in love and life—the Noa Callaway. All Lanie has to do is cure Noa's writer's block and she'll get the promotion she's always dreamed of. Simple, right? But there's a reason no one has ever seen or spoken to the mysterious Noa Calloway. And that reason will rock Lanie's world. It will call into question everything she thought she knew. When she finally tosses her ninety-nine expectations to the wind, Lanie may just discover that love By Any Other Name can still be as sweet. MORE: getthefunkoutshow.kuci.org
This week on Episode 535 of Priority One: Content deals continue at ViacomCBS, so you'll see what IP Bob can guarantee to be on TV. A touching farewell to Tilly, with the character's far future plans on the tip of Mary Wiseman's tongue. In gaming news, some fresh and refreshed games to add to your Trek catalog, and Mudd is back with a fresh Intel in a big ship bundle. And before we review the most recent episode of Discovery, Dr. Robert Hurt tells us how we're looking for planets not just around distant stars, but in distant galaxies! TREK IT OUT Edited by Thomas Reynolds Not Every Loss Is Eternal By Jake Cobb If you haven't watched Star Trek: Discovery's season 4 episode 4 “All is Possible” our next story contains spoilers. You've been warned. Still here? Good! Let's get started! In the aforementioned “All is Possible”, Discovery said goodbye to one of its own: Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly. This week, TVInsider sat down with Tilly actor Mary Wiseman to talk about the episode, her departure, and the future of Tilly. Before going any further, let's get the big question out of the way: will Tilly be back, and in what capacity? Wiseman answered (unsatisfyingly) ”I can say that you'll see me later on in the season.” She continued (also unsatisfyingly) ”I'll say that her hair is slightly different and she's wearing a different outfit.” And she'll make new friends along the way! Image: ViacomCBS, via Tor. Being less vague, Wiseman recalled her on-screen goodbyes, telling TVInsiders Meredith Jacobs ”you tend to create a found family and that's very much the story of our show, both on and offscreen, that we are a found family. So it felt really important to honor those relationships…[i]t kind of feels like...she's going off to do this thing and all of these people show up for her to say, ‘we'll still be here for you when you come back and we love you and we'll miss you'.” It's true, we'll miss you–a lot. ViacomCBS: Deal With It By Cat Hough In some not very shocking news, ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish confirmed that Paramount+ is moving towards exclusivity for its major IP franchises, by reducing the amount of third-party licenses...just like the recent buy-back deal for Star Trek: Discovery from Netflix. In a recent media conference, Bakish was asked about the third-party licensing deals and he said that while the company continues to bring in revenue for many deals cut before the launch of Paramount+, its priorities have definitely changed and that they are not likely to renew any prior third-party deals. They are altering the deal. Pray they do not alter it further. Image: ViacomCBS/Trekmovie Bakish elaborated on this, saying, “as we increasingly transition to leveraging our particular franchises and original production for our owned and operated streaming assets, principally Paramount+…that, in turn, will create a decline in that third-party business over time as these deals roll off. I would note that as an example of that, we just took back Star Trek: Discovery internationally from Netflix. And so we now have that property globally. That's clearly a core franchise for us, and it's working.” It appears that these efforts are working for Bakish, as he stated that Paramount+ had its best week ever and best month ever in November. However, Discovery has yet to be confirmed for a fifth season. Historically, additional season pickups are announced around the time of the launch of a new season, which they did for Star Trek: Prodigy. Paramount+ Opens Revenue Channels By Cat Hough Speaking of Paramount+, it just announced the launch of 18 linear channels that let subscribers surf through dedicated-themed collections of shows called Live Channels. The content comes from all ViacomCBS properties including CBS, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, BET and the Smithsonian Channel as well as from other sources.

ASTROMETRICS REPORT For this week's Astrometics Report, we go way past the final frontier to hunt for exoplanets--not just around other stars, but in distant galaxies. And we aren't just talking the homeworld of the Andromedans from the TOS episode "By Any Other Name." They're just from the Andromeda Galaxy, a mere two million light-years away. No, this tantalizing new discovery was found in the Whirlpool Galaxy, or M51, at a whopping distance of 30 million light-years. And this potential planet was found in a particularly wild system. So how do you search for exoplanets in other distant galaxies, when we've only barely started finding them in the nearby reaches of our very own Milky Way galaxy? It's a classic example of the scientific method at work: thinking about what we know, coming up with a hypothetical way to do a different kind of search, and being rewarded with an exciting detection. Now if you've been following exoplanet discoveries, you may already have heard of a search strategy kjnown as the "transit method." In a nutshell, astronomers hunt for planets orbiting other stars by looking for a small tell-tale dip in the star's brightness, that would happen when a comparatively tiny planet passes in front of its star--blocking a little bit of its light. This only works with planetary systems that, by the roll of the dice, happen to be aligned perfectly edge-on with our vantage point, allowing us to see the transits. Statistically that's a pretty small fraction of al the star systems out there. But it's been incredibly productive so far, leading to the discovery of nearly five thousand planets around other stars in the Milky Way. Since planets are small compared to stars, these dips in brightness may be only a fraction of a percent of the star's overall brightness. It works best with stars that are nearby and can be measured precisely. So the obvious question is how could you hunt for transiting planets in other galaxies, where the light of the stars gets mushed into an unresolved haze? X-ray: NASA/CXC/SAO/R. DiStefano, et al.; Optical: NASA/ESA/STScI/Grendler That very question prompted researcher Rosanne Di Stefano and her team to consider looking far past visible light to another part of the spectrum: namely, X-rays. Only the very hottest processes in the universes light up in this high-energy party of the spectrum, including an unusual kind of system called an X-ray binary. These are typically either a compact neutron star, or black hole, in a close orbit around another star. Gas spilling of the star gets swept up into a disc around the super-dense companion. the inner regions of the disc get heated to incredible temperatures. A large galaxy may gave at most a few dozen X-ray binaries that are so bright we can see them millions of light-ears away. but each one is a single compact source. So what if one of those has an orbiting planet that transits in front of the glowing disk? The team reasoned it would produce a transit signature that would briefly dim the X-ray light, so they went looking for one. And that's how they found the candidate planet in the Whirlpool Galaxy, using data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. It turns out x-ray data sets are ideal for this kind of search. These telescopes typically have to sit and stare at a target for days, or even weeks, to collect enough x-ray photons to build up a picture. Those long staring observations are very similar to those used by exoplanet hunters searching in visible or infrared light. The transit they detected indicates a planet in an X-ray binary system called M51-ULS-1, where they saw the X-ray glow vanish for about three hours. They were able to rule out a variety of other factors that can cause X-ray variability, making a Saturn-sized planet the best explanation for what they saw. The signal was so strong because, in this case, the transiting planet would be much larger than the relatively compact part of the disc emitting the X-rays. So in X-ray binary systems, a planet would pretty much block all of the high energy light for a while. Image: NASA/CXC. Now I have to emphasize this is only considered to be a potential planet since confirmations require multiple transit detections. Unfortunately this planet likely has an orbital period of around 70 years or so, which means confirmation could take a very long time. However it points us towards a whole new way to search for other distant planets in the universe, and the awesome thing is that a lot of the data we need is already in hand. This research was carried out on archival data taken in other research programs--reminding us that our vast collections of research data in astronomy can be used to make new discoveries over time. You can bet scientists will continue searching data from Chandra and other X-ray telescopes for other possible planet transits. I should point out any planets in systems like this are not going to be at the top of the list for habitability searches. Such worlds are going to be flooded with deeply-destructive X-rays way past what you'd get in a doctors office. Our search may be restricted to stars a little closer to home. https://youtu.be/oR3Q7RBGmtc Finally I do have to comment on how excited the whole astronomical community is for the upcoming launch of NASA's Webb telescope on December 22. if you want to learn more about Webb, or the exogalactic exoplanet, make sure to check out Ask the Astronomers Live on universeunplugged.org.

This week on Episode 535 of Priority One: Content deals continue at ViacomCBS, so you'll see what IP Bob can guarantee to be on TV. A touching farewell to Tilly, with the character's far future plans on the tip of Mary Wiseman's tongue. In gaming news, some fresh and refreshed games to add to your Trek catalog, and Mudd is back with a fresh Intel in a big ship bundle. And before we review the most recent episode of Discovery, Dr. Robert Hurt tells us how we're looking for planets not just around distant stars, but in distant galaxies! TREK IT OUT Edited by Thomas Reynolds Not Every Loss Is Eternal By Jake Cobb If you haven't watched Star Trek: Discovery's season 4 episode 4 “All is Possible” our next story contains spoilers. You've been warned. Still here? Good! Let's get started! In the aforementioned “All is Possible”, Discovery said goodbye to one of its own: Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly. This week, TVInsider sat down with Tilly actor Mary Wiseman to talk about the episode, her departure, and the future of Tilly. Before going any further, let's get the big question out of the way: will Tilly be back, and in what capacity? Wiseman answered (unsatisfyingly) ”I can say that you'll see me later on in the season.” She continued (also unsatisfyingly) ”I'll say that her hair is slightly different and she's wearing a different outfit.” And she'll make new friends along the way! Image: ViacomCBS, via Tor. Being less vague, Wiseman recalled her on-screen goodbyes, telling TVInsiders Meredith Jacobs ”you tend to create a found family and that's very much the story of our show, both on and offscreen, that we are a found family. So it felt really important to honor those relationships…[i]t kind of feels like...she's going off to do this thing and all of these people show up for her to say, ‘we'll still be here for you when you come back and we love you and we'll miss you'.” It's true, we'll miss you–a lot. ViacomCBS: Deal With It By Cat Hough In some not very shocking news, ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish confirmed that Paramount+ is moving towards exclusivity for its major IP franchises, by reducing the amount of third-party licenses...just like the recent buy-back deal for Star Trek: Discovery from Netflix. In a recent media conference, Bakish was asked about the third-party licensing deals and he said that while the company continues to bring in revenue for many deals cut before the launch of Paramount+, its priorities have definitely changed and that they are not likely to renew any prior third-party deals. They are altering the deal. Pray they do not alter it further. Image: ViacomCBS/Trekmovie Bakish elaborated on this, saying, “as we increasingly transition to leveraging our particular franchises and original production for our owned and operated streaming assets, principally Paramount+…that, in turn, will create a decline in that third-party business over time as these deals roll off. I would note that as an example of that, we just took back Star Trek: Discovery internationally from Netflix. And so we now have that property globally. That's clearly a core franchise for us, and it's working.” It appears that these efforts are working for Bakish, as he stated that Paramount+ had its best week ever and best month ever in November. However, Discovery has yet to be confirmed for a fifth season. Historically, additional season pickups are announced around the time of the launch of a new season, which they did for Star Trek: Prodigy. Paramount+ Opens Revenue Channels By Cat Hough Speaking of Paramount+, it just announced the launch of 18 linear channels that let subscribers surf through dedicated-themed collections of shows called Live Channels. The content comes from all ViacomCBS properties including CBS, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, BET and the Smithsonian Channel as well as from other sources.

By Any Other Name was the twenty second episode of Star Trek's second season to air, with intergalactic aliens determined to travel home by hijacking the Enterprise. In this episode Gerry and Iain discussed long journeys and the need to have a few good podcasts queued up in advance. Visiting a planet believed to be uninhabited, Kirk and Spock are captured by a handful of aliens from the neighbouring Andromeda galaxy and made to watch a redshirt Yeoman (Julie Cobb) be reduced to dust on the orders of Rojan (Warren Stevens). Realising the hijackers are struggling to come to terms with their new human forms, Kirk and the senior staff set out to stimulate their senses, with the captain's duty compelling him to seduce Kelinda (Barbara Bouchet) as Scotty tries to drink Tomar (Robert Fortier) under the table and McCoy regularly injects Hanar (Stewart Moss) with an irritant. By Any Other Name was directed by Marc Daniels, his twelfth of fourteen Star Trek episodes. The writer was Jerome Bixby, with this the second of four episodes he wrote for the show. In this episode Gerry and Iain considered whether a many-tentacled being could be attractive in the right package. The discussion continues in the comments below and please keep in touch with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram where we're @trekpodcast. You can listen to the show here on the website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Pocket Casts, TuneIn, Stitcher, Google or wherever you find your podcasts. By Any Other Name was released in 1968. It is 50 minutes long and originally aired on the NBC network. It can be viewed on Paramount+ in the United states, Netflix in the UK and is available on DVD and Blu Ray in other countries, including a comprehensive remastered set of all three seasons released by Paramount Home Entertainment.

Episode Titles in The Original Series. “What’s in a name?” Juliet demands of Romeo. “That which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet.” In 1968, the Star Trek episode “By Any Other Name” took more than just its title from Shakespeare—it used Juliet’s words as a jumping-off point to consider what makes us human. But it was also characteristic of the Original Series scriptwriters to lean on such rich literary source material when it came time to name this particular episode. In fact, throughout Trek’s 50-plus-year history, the names given to individual episodes have often revealed a lot about their content—sometimes providing additional context to what is depicted on screen. In this episode of Primitive Culture, the first in a series looking at episode titles throughout Star Trek, host Duncan Barrett is joined by Tony Black to consider some of the more interesting among Trek’s original 80 installments as we ponder the difference between a cage and a menagerie, work out exactly who does mourn for Adonais, and try to remember just what little girls are supposed to be made of.

Episode Titles in The Original Series. “What’s in a name?” Juliet demands of Romeo. “That which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet.” In 1968, the Star Trek episode “By Any Other Name” took more than just its title from Shakespeare—it used Juliet’s words as a jumping-off point to consider what makes us human.

5 + 1 = 6. Arithmetic sure is something, isn't it? The late great Billy Shakespeare once said: "The beauty of me is that I am very rich". Wait, that was our (one and hopefully only) commander and thief, I must have somehow confused my notes. Ahhhh here we go let's start again, shall we? The late great Billy Shakespeare once wrote “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose / By Any Other Name would smell as sweet.” and he may have been onto something. Is it the members that make the band, or is it the band that makes the members? Does it even matter what members are in the band? When is a band, no longer a band—after all they're still selling out shows right? We dive in headfirst to try and figure it out. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/infectiousgroovepodcast/support

Sad news today, December 3rd. Yesterday, we lost Star Trek giant D.C. Fontana. She passed away peacefully at the age of 80, reportedly after a short illness.As a young girl of 11, Dorothy Catherine Fontana decided she wanted to become a novelist. After getting an Associate Degree as an Executive Secretarial major at Fairleigh Dickinson University, she worked her way up through the typing pool to quickly become the secretary to Samuel Peeples of Screen Gems, then to producer Del Reisman of the Lieutenant where she met and became secretary to that show’s creator Gene Roddenberry.Roddenberry encouraged her writing, and in 1964, she published her first novel, a western Brazos River.After The Lieutenant was canceled, Roddenberry started work on Star Trek, and Fontana came with him. She worked on it since the beginning of development. Associate producer Robert H. Justman encouraged Roddenberry to give her more writing tasks, and Roddenberry assigned her the job of writing the teleplay for an idea he had called "The Day Charlie Became God"—the premise of which she wrote into her reworked script for the episode that became "Charlie X". Other Original Series episodes she had a hand in writing or re-writing:"Tomorrow is Yesterday", "This Side of Paradise", "Friday’s Child", "Journey to Babel", "By Any Other Name", "The Ultimate Computer", "The Enterprise Incident", "That Which Survives", and "The Way to Eden" among others…When Steve Carabatsos, the story editor, left the production midway through the first season, she became the new story editor. At the age of 27, Fontana was the youngest story editor in Hollywood at the time, and also one of the few female staff writers. She left the story editor position before the third season went into production: "I had told Gene Roddenberry that I did not wish to continue on Star Trek as story editor because I wanted to freelance and write for other series. I did, however, want to continue to do scripts for Star Trek. Gene was agreeable to this, and I was given a contract in February of 1968 which called for a guarantee of three scripts, with an option for three more. Whenever anyone has asked why I chose to leave Star Trek's story editorship, I have always given this reply." However, Fontana was very unhappy with the rewrites done on her third season scripts, including "The Enterprise Incident" and "The Way to Eden" (originally submitted as "Joanna" by Fontana, featuring Doctor McCoy's daughter). She was unhappy with the way Roddenberry re-wrote the episodes they wrote together. She used the pseudonym "J. Michael Bingham" for "The Naked Now", as she was especially unhappy with the episode.Another of Fontana's contributions to The Original Series was her discovery and introduction to Gene Roddenberry of costume designer William Ware Theiss. She was an active contributor to the officially endorsed fanzine Inside Star Trek, for which she conducted interviews with several key production staffers, most notably the one with Theiss, the only published one on record.Over the years, she maintained a working relationship with Roddenberry, serving as his assistant on The Questor Tapes, Genesis II, and was hired as story editor and associate producer on Star Trek: The Animated Series. "Yesteryear".She would also work on The Fantastic Journey, Logan’s Run, Six Million Dollar Man, Buck Rogers of the 25th Century, The Waltons, and finally back to Star Trek where she worked up the initial concept for the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation: “Encounter at Farpoint” earning a Hugo Award nomination, co-invented the "LCARS" concept, and wrote four other episodes of the season, “The Naked Now”, “Lonely Among Us”, “Too Short a Season”, and “Heart of Glory”, before departing (along with all the Original Series production staff) due to the meddlings of Roddenberry's lawyer, Leonard Maizlish.She also returned to write DS9: "Dax", her last “canon” involvement with Star Trek, in which a great deal of Jadzia Dax' backstory was fleshed out. She would also go on to write for Babylon 5, Earth: Final Conflict, and then wrote the stories of the video games Star Trek: Secret of Vulcan Fury (unreleased), Star Trek: Bridge Commander, Star Trek: Legacy and Star Trek: Tactical Assault all with Derek Chester, and an episode of the fan production Star Trek: New Voyages, the episode "To Serve All My Days" in 2006, on which she worked alongside Jack Treviño and Ethan H. Calk. FictionShe wrote the Star Trek novel “Vulcan's Glory” (1989) and the IDW comic series “Star Trek: Year Four - The Enterprise Experiment”.Leonard Nimoy credited her for expanding Vulcan culture within Star Trek. As Star Trek fans, we owe a tremendous debt to D.C. Fontana. Without her, Star Trek might never have been as successful as it ultimately has been. If you doubt, realize that gene Roddenberry understood it himself. It’s why he kept asking her back and making her story editor and associate producer. She got it. She got it enough to craft integral backstories for, time-tested fictional characters and cultures. She was a bad ass and a trailblazer for other women. Most recently, she worked as a senior lecturer at the American Film Institute, where she mentored aspiring screenwriters, producers, and directors. She is survived by her husband, Oscar-winning visual effects cinematographer Dennis Skotak, and her family asks for memorial donations to be made to the Humane Society, the Best Friends Animal Society, or to the American Film Institute.Until next time, go watch or read something D.C. Fontana had a hand in, and do like Dorothy: Live long. Prosper.

Happy Friday, my friends! We're back with the second episode of the Indiana Geeking Podcast, the podcast where we focus on Hoosier-based creators and events! This month, Lizz and I took a trip to one of the top 3D Printing events, the Midwest RepRap Festival. Held in Goshen, it brought in makers from across the world to show off their work, their machines, and eat tacos. As we were looking around, and preparing to start our own journey into 3D printing (more on that next week), we found some folks from here in Indiana that we wanted to talk Hoosier business with. Luckily, I had the trusty old Zoom H1 with me, so I was able to get some interviews with some folks in northern Indiana who make 3D Printers, filament, and use all of this to make their own props and costumes! So, without further ado, join me as I give you some top events for the month of April, then jump into a series of short interviews with some of the local folks tabling at MRRF! Don't worry, this one's only about 45 minutes long! NOTE: You can find the Facebook Photo Album with the photos we took at this link.

By Any Other Name: An Exploration of Afro-Amerindian Heritage is a documentary film that discusses the interactions between Africans and American Indians from in the United States, with an emphasis on the state of Georgia in the 18th through the 20th Centuries. Steven D. Gayle is a filmmaker and educator originally from Philadelphia, PA now residing in the Atlanta area. Steven earned his Bachelor’s in History Education from The University of North Carolina at Pembroke and a Master of Arts in Media and Communications from Norfolk State University. He is currently pursuing his PhD in International Conflict Management at Kennesaw State University. He has worked in the educational and media production fields for nearly a decade and is constantly seeking new ways to incorporate the two disciplines in different formats. In 2011 he co-produced, co-Wrote and directed the feature-length documentary about the musical history of Hampton Roads Virginia entitled, "7 City Legacy," which is now in the College of William and Mary's Special Collections Archive. Most recently he has shifted his focus on research related to African and Native American history and genealogy with his latest project, "By Any Other Name: An Exploration of Afro-Amerindian Heritage." This film received the 'Inventos Award' at the FistUp Film Festival in Berkeley, CA, and 'Best Feature' at the Warsaw Avenue Film Festival in Cincinnati, OH. It has also been screened at the 20th Native American Film Festival of the Southeast, the Native Spirit Film festival in London and the Apex Museum in Atlanta. It is Steven’s intention that "By Any Other Name" stands as a meaningful contribution in the realm of historical documentary and in understanding both the African American and Native American diasporas.

The Original Series Season 2 - Essential Trek Philosophy. Season 2 of Star Trek: The Original Series playfully explores human nature, what human nature is and what it could become, its place in the cosmos, and its relation to humanity's past, present, and future. From future Space Nazis in "Patterns of Force" to ancient Greek gods and Roman gladiators in space ("Who Mourns for Adonais?" and "Bread and Circuses"), TOS season 2 explores the best and the worst of human nature across the whole of human history. We also see the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise debate ethical questions about our relation to the unknown, from giant space amoebas in "The Immunity Syndrome" to the mystical powers of Korob and Sylvia in "Catspaw," along with the iterative development of one the defining concepts of the Star Trek universe, the noninterference principle known as "The Prime Directive." In this episode of Meta Treks, hosts Mike Morrison and Zachary Fruhling continue their philosophical retrospective of every season of Star Trek, discussing their top choices for "Essential Trek Philosophy" from season 2 of Star Trek: The Original Series.

Seems like we've been here before. First up, it looks like the "Enterprise" is getting hijacked AGAIN in "By Any Other Name," while the Prime Directive is being blown to smithereens in "The Omega Glory." Also this week: the show can't decide if humanity is astronaut ice cream or powdered drugs; a disproportionate amount of phallus chat; and the eternal search for the Bubbler of Youth. Content warning: brief discussion of Kirk's tendency to kiss first and ask permission...well, never. Timestamps: synopses: 1:14; By Any Other Name: 13:57; The Omega Glory: 36:32

Okay, we just have to come out and say it: we’re dealing with Nazis this week. “Patterns of Force” is a strangely funny episode, seeing as how it deals with, as we just mentioned, Nazis, but it’s also disturbing. “By Any Other Name” is neither of those, but it does present us with the idea ...
