This week, Donna and Orlando sat down with Cartographer and founder of Detroitography, Alex B. Hill to discuss how data-driven neighborhood classification aids in the discrimination of Detroiters. Detroitography is a project started by Alex to bring together Detroit cartographers and their work. In 2021, he wrote that although over the past decade, redlining has received increased attention in popular press and across academic disciplines, there's a larger story of spatial racism before and after redlining. Alex argues that spatial racism is not limited to a single set of maps, but is embedded within institutions. Now, he wants the long history of spatial racism teased out and examined as new data-driven practices have resulted in “orange lining” that generates inequitable opportunities for Detroiters. To read Alex's full write up of how spacial racism is impacting Detroit, click here. FOR HOT TAKES:DETROIT CHAMPION, FATHER, HUSBAND, DIES AFTER CORONAVIRUS DIAGNOSIS DETROIT 67 EXHIBIT BECOMES PERMANENT, DEDICATED TO MARLOWE STOUDAMIRESupport the showFollow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Ever wanted to play an Artificer so obsessed with maps that they can literally teleport via doodles, yet still somehow get lost? Buckle up, because the Cartographer subclass is here to turn your D&D campaign into a magical GPS adventure—complete with rerouting, questionable shortcuts, and the occasional teleportation mishap straight into a dragon's lair! Episode Summary In this thrilling episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts embark on a magical journey through the latest Unearthed Arcana updates for the Artificer class, complete with a hearty dose of laughter and debate. They begin by dissecting the major changes to the Artificer's core mechanics and subclass features, including an in-depth look at the newest addition to the Artificer family: the Cartographer subclass—because what every adventuring party really needs is a sentient GPS that may or may not lead them into a pit of doom. The discussion unfolds with an analysis of the Adventures Atlas, a magical mapping system that aims to redefine exploration mechanics but also raises questions about just how useful a glowing, teleporting map can be in the middle of combat. Can you really fight a dragon while scribbling out escape routes? The hosts weigh in. From there, the conversation pivots to a much larger topic—the role of exploration in 5e. The hosts argue whether modern D&D has devalued travel and survival mechanics and whether subclasses like the Cartographer can bring back the golden age of navigating with actual consequences (hint: probably not, but it's fun to dream). Not stopping at Artificer updates, the episode veers into Dragon Marks, magic items, and character customization, with the hosts debating whether Dragon Marks should get a modern refresh or stay as the Eberron-exclusive party trick they've always been. They also dig into the Mark of Healing, Potent Dragon Mark, and the Boon of Sibiris, contemplating the power levels of these abilities and whether they introduce game-breaking (or at least table-flipping) potential. Lastly, the hosts share game-mastering wisdom and some truly absurd personal anecdotes, proving once again that no amount of Unearthed Arcana can prevent players from doing completely unexpected things. Key Takeaways Artificer updates: The Artificer class gets some noteworthy enhancements, including a revamped subclass and fresh spells that improve its versatility. Cartographer subclass: Magical maps and teleportation mechanics open new possibilities, but the subclass may still struggle to compete with stronger Artificer options. Exploration in 5e: The discussion highlights how D&D 5e has gradually moved away from meaningful travel mechanics, raising the question of whether exploration can make a comeback. Teleportation tactics: The Cartographer's teleportation abilities could be a game-changer in combat, offering strategic mobility for quick positioning and battlefield control. Dragon Marks reimagined: The debate over whether Dragon Marks should receive updates to fit modern D&D leads to a broader discussion about character diversity and flexibility. Magic items and balance: The hosts critique how newer magic items often overshadow classic ones, potentially making certain features obsolete. Healing and spellcasting feats: Mark of Healing and Greater Mark of Healing provide significant cleric-like abilities to other classes, while the Boon of Sibiris introduces high-level spellcasting power without using spell slots. RPG learning curve: The hosts share practical advice for navigating new RPG systems, from focusing on key sections of rulebooks to embracing the inevitable chaos of a first session. Game Master struggles: Balancing player agency, new rules, and campaign consistency is an ongoing challenge—but one that leads to some of the most hilarious moments at the table. If you've ever wondered whether a magical map can solve all your problems (spoiler: it can't) or if the Artificer is finally getting the love it deserves, this episode is for you. Grab your compass (or just ask your party's wizard for a Teleport spell), and dive into the latest Unearthed Arcana discussion!

To launch a new season of IWS, Charlie talks with Peng about her novels The Cartographers and the recently published All This and More. They discuss the line between passion and obsession, the world of old maps, the structural challenges of a "choose your own adventure" novel for grownups, the nature of reality TV, and much more.

I'm joined by the renowned “Cartographer of Love”, Annie Lalla. We delve into the intricacies of romantic relationships, covering topics like common relationship patterns, the dynamics between attachment and independence, finding a new perspective on conflict, and the art of nurturing trust and growth within a partnership. Annie Lalla brings her extensive experience and insightful approach to create the ultimate relationship masterclass, exploring the natural balance of power dynamics, understanding emotions, and the keys to finding the right partner for you. Whether you're looking to deepen your current relationship or prepare for a future one, this episode is packed with everything you need to build the best relationship for both you, and your (prospective) partner. ========== OUR GUEST ========== Annie Lalla has spent her life studying the world of emotions, mapping the complexities of communication and the subtleties of relationships. A philosopher, speaker, and thought leader, Annie is known as the “Cartographer of Love.” Professionally certified in neurolinguistic programming, coaching, and hypnosis, she has also studied integrative psychology, evolutionary science, neurochemistry, therapeutic sexuality, and systems dynamics, alongside explorations in mystic poetry, classic literature, and metaphoric narrative. All of these converge in her unique Relationship Coaching practice and her signature method, the Art of Fighting, in which she helps individuals attract, create, and foster extraordinary connections that maximize freedom and minimize shame. =========== ANNIE LALLA ===========

We couldn't say enough about the Cartographers by Peng Shepherd.  Well, if you think about it, we really had too much to say.  After all, here we are with more to say!  Tonight the boys are also going to check in with their specially ordered bottle of Oak & Eden customized with 4 grain bourbon whiskey, a French oak stave, and orange essence.

In this week's episode, Stephen and Mark dive into a story about familes.  The families you are born into, the familes you make, and the worlds you create together.  Come explore with them as they find brave new worlds in Peng Shepherd's masterful novel, "The Cartographers".  It's a long road, and the path is unclear, and so they will pair the book with Five Trail Whiskey.

Tom is an internationally acclaimed artist, published author, and social justice activist. He is an expert and consultant on animal liberation history and strategy, and the global animal rights movement. His first book, Your Neighbour Kills Puppies was released in March 2024. The book is the previously untold story of one of the world's most powerful social justice campaigns, Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC). Tom became involved in the animal liberation movement at the age of fifteen when he attended his first hunt sab. Over the years that followed he devoted his life to helping animals and co-founded one of the UK`s most successful regional animal rights organizations, SARC (The Southern Animal Rights Coalition). Tom is a regular contributor to Forca Vegan magazine, and other periodicals. Under the professional name ‘Tattoo Tom‘, Tom has also achieved a highly successful and acclaimed career as an artist. In Sentientist Conversations we talk about the two most important questions: “what's real?” & “who matters?” Sentientism is "evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings." The video of our conversation is ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 00:00 Clips! 00:49 Welcome - Nicola Harris and Anita Krajnc episode  @PlantBasedTreaty 03:18 Tom's Intro - 20 years in the #animalliberation movement - Founding the Southern Animal Rights Coalition - Closing a military research facility, a puppy farm, several chicken units - Getting fur and foie gras out of shops - #SHAC (Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty) co-ordinators "the largest and most dynamic grass-roots animal liberation campaign" - "The model we came up with was so effective... that the American and British governments were both really terrified... while I don't think any of us necessarily set out to create a blueprint that could end capitalism... I think we probably came dangerously close" - "The government in the UK essentially framed us and set us up on bogus blackmail charges... I received a 5 year prison sentence for... a lawful campaign... I served 2 years." - 3 years on bail before-hand and 2.5 years on license afterwards with a tag "which was probably the toughest bit... I wasn't allowed to talk to my brother... a constant threat that they were going to send me back to prison." - Since release, finding a very different animal liberation world - Lord Sainsbury's intention "to eliminate the anti-vivisection movement... he succeeded for a good decade" - "The movement I knew didn't exist... new groups like the Save Movement, Animal Rebellion, DxE... started forming" - Taking up tattoo artistry because "I was essentially banned from talking to any other activist... any other vegan... all of my friends I wasn't allowed to talk to them" - "Stabbing people for money" :) 10:10 What's Real? - "I actually dropped out of a philosophy degree to do more animal rights activism" - Growing up in a non-religious family, probably atheists - Christian grandparents "it was good for them... I saw the positives" - Cartographer dad, psychologist mum, quite analytical / logical focus - "I didn't learn when to stop following that logical path" - "I was raised to be kind to animals and respect nature... to value life" 26:13 What and Who Matters? 01:04:53 A Better Future? 01:45:00 Follow Tom TomHarris.meShacjustice.com@Tattoo_tom ...and much more.

How do our brains grow? What does lasting change look like? Where do things like character and pain fit? Curt Thompson brings neurobiology and the hope of the gospel together to live out a formationally-minded Christian life in this episode. We talk about how durable transformation happens often through suffering, the reasons for Christian hope, confessional communities, and how we live the life of faithful resilience when it's easier to follow "3 quick steps." Listen to the end as we've got a fun little surprise for you. Curt's newest book is The Deepest Place: Suffering and the Formation of Hope. The Cartographers is a production of Willowbrae Institute.

Everything we do forms us. How does this apply to the tasks of the church, like worship? We've considered some of the trends: de-churching, loneliness, and culture wars. What's really happening in worship, why do we do it? Join us as we pull back the curtain as we consider how worship is more than preferences, it's about formation. A formative view of worship differs from a functional view of worship and this paradigm shift affects the resilient fruit that is (or isn't) growing in a Christian's life. Join us in this new series as we consider how worship forms us both away from secularized narratives and towards goodness, truth and beauty. The Cartographers is a production of Willowbrae Institute.

There's a lost continent waiting to be explored, and it's right below our feet. We'll dig into the deep human relationship to the underground—and why we understand it from an instinctive point of view, but not so much from a physical one. (Hint: We're afraid of the dark.) In an episode originally published November 2021, National Geographic photographer Tamara Merino will take us subterranean in Utah, Australia, and Spain, where modern-day cave dwellers teach us how to escape the heat. For more information on this episode, visit natgeo.com/overheard. Want more? Go below ground with National Geographic Explorer Tamara Merino to see how these communities have been living—quite comfortably—for a very long time. In Vietnam photojournalist and National Geographic Explorer Martin Edström created 360 images of the world's largest cave, Son Doong. It's so big that a forest grows inside of it. Ever zip-line to a remote island? Cartographers did, 30 miles west of San Francisco. What did they see when they mapped the hard-to-reach landform known as the Farallon Islands? Caves. China is home to some of the most intricate cave systems on the planet. These explorers used a laser scanner to capture never before seen images of undocumented caves. Also explore: South Dakota is famous among cavers for its web of cave mazes. Take a look at what they've found under the Black Hills. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
