Welcome to Season 5, Episode 31! Our guest today is Daniel Tam-Claiborne, a writer, multimedia producer, and nonprofit director. His latest work is the novel Transplants released by Simon & Schuster. It's a coming of age story following two young women—Lin, who is Chinese and Liz, who is Chinese American. They're both navigating the journey to find their truest selves in a world that doesn't know where either of them belong. The novel is an exploration of race, love, power, and freedom that reveals how—in spite of our divided times—even our fiercest differences may bring us closer than we can imagine. Tam-Claiborne is also the author of the short story collection What Never Leaves, and his writing has appeared in a variety of publications and outlets including Michigan Quarterly Review, Catapult, Literary Hub, Off Assignment, The Rumpus, HuffPost, and elsewhere. Outside of writing, Daniel serves on the Board of Directors of Seattle City of Literature and on the Advisory Board of Off Assignment. He's a frequent speaker, moderator, and host. In our conversation, we discuss the process of writing a novel, inspiration for Transplants, feelings of belonging, the importance of COVID and lockdown as an element of Transplants, the diversity in the Asian American community, and so much more. Transplants is a well-written, moving book that we think shares several common themes that resonate with so many audiences. Tam-Claiborne doesn't shy away from deep issues that Asian Americans, Asians, and expats face as he explores belonging, identity, and more. You can see more of Daniel's work on his website Travel Breeds Content or his Instagram account @datclaiborne.

Michelle de Kretser was born in Sri Lanka and lives in Australia on unceded Gadigal land. She writes fiction but has also published a short book about Shirley Hazzard's work. Theory & Practice, her seventh novel, recently won Australia's Stella Prize for writing by women. Theory and Practice is set in 1986, when “beautiful, radical ideas” are in the air. Its narrator is a young woman originally from Sri Lankan who arrives in Melbourne for graduate school to research the novels of Virginia Woolf. In the bohemian neighborhood of St. Kilda she meets artists, activists, students—and Kit. He claims to be in a “deconstructed relationship.” They become lovers, and the narrator's feminism comes up against her jealousy. Meanwhile, an entry in Woolf's diary upends what the narrator knows about her literary idol, and throws her own work into disarray. What happens when our desires run contrary to our beliefs? What should we do when the failings of revered figures come to light? Who is shamed when the truth is told? Michelle de Kretser's new novel offers a spellbinding meditation on the moral complexities that arise in the gap between our values and our lives. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this show, Alex and Richard take a bunch of subscriber questions in the run-up to the season, with an early focus on realignment matters:* The Athletic reported that despite a desperate financial offer, Memphis has not gotten traction in its effort to join the Big 12. Why not?* Why was Louisiana Tech, which isn't very good, a good backfilling candidate for the Sun Belt after Texas State joined the Pac-12?* What do we make of conferences (the American and Big 12 so far) doing away with preseason media polls?* What do we make of Tulane's addition of former BYU QB Jake Retzlaff?* Do we have any Week 1 game travel plans? (Richard does.)* Should Maryland fans be worried about the prospect of their school getting left out in future realignment? (This question could apply to lots of Big Ten and SEC schools.)* Why did a story about Catapult video footage access go so quiet?* Which is the deepest P4 conference for QB depth in 2025?* How are our video game dynasty builds going?Producer: Anthony Vito

Key topics you'll learn about: * The difference between encouragement vs pressure in youth development * Why early specialisation might be doing more harm than good * The critical role of parents as stakeholders in an athlete's journey * How physical maturation affects performance (including issues like Osgood-Schlatter's) * Why multisport participation isn't just beneficial, it's essential * Managing load, recovery and expectations during growth spurts * The impact of social media and performance comparisons on young athletes * Why long-term success is more about joy and patience than relentless training * Andrew's “Project Mbappe” warning, and why sitting back with a margarita might actually help * The importance of creating a supportive, multi-disciplinary environment around a child athlete Whether you're a coach, parent, or performance professional, this episode will reshape how you think about talent development in football and beyond. About Andrew Hyde Andrew Hyde is a strength and conditioning coach and founder of Aesthetic Athletes, based in Manchester, UK.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Tracy Wai de Boer about her debut poetry collection, Nostos (Palimpsest Press/Anstruther 2025).  Taking its title from Ancient Greek, Tracy Wai de Boer's Nostos is a hero's journey rooted in the quest for selfhood from elemental beginnings to an unknowable end. “Nostos” translates to homecoming and is one of the root words of nostalgia; the other, “algos,” means pain, making nostalgia a painful return home. This etymology acts as guide for de Boer's “i” when she imagines homecoming as less a moment of arrival and more about desire to move through pain and mystery in the formation of self. Nostos is an essential debut from one of Canada's fastest rising poets. About Tracy Wai de Boer: Tracy Wai de Boer is an award-winning writer, poet, and multidisciplinary artist. She co-authored Impact: Women Writing After Concussion which won the Book Publishers of Alberta Best Non-Fiction Award and was named one of CBC's Best Non-Fiction Books of 2021. Her chapbook, maybe, basically, was published with Anstruther Press in 2020.

A memoir-in-essays on transness, dad rock, and the music that saves us. When Wilco's 2007 album Sky Blue Sky was infamously criticized as "dad rock," Niko Stratis was a twenty-five-year-old closeted trans woman working in her dad's glass shop in the Yukon Territory. As she sought escape from her hypermasculine environment, Stratis found an unlikely lifeline amid dad rock's emotionally open and honest music. Listening to dad rock, Stratis could access worlds beyond her own and imagine a path forward. In taut, searing essays rendered in propulsive and unguarded prose, Stratis delves into the emotional core of bands like Wilco and The National, telling her story through the dad rock that accompanied her along the way. She found footing in Michael Stipe's allusions to queer longing, Radiohead's embrace of unknowability, and Bruce Springsteen's very trans desire to "change my clothes my hair my face"--and she found in artists like Neko Case and Sharon Van Etten that the label transcends gender. A love letter to the music that saves us and a tribute to dads like Stratis's own who embody the tenderness at the genre's heart, The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman (University of Texas Press, 2025) rejoices in music unafraid to bare its soul. Niko Stratis is an award-winning writer from Toronto by way of the Yukon, where she spent years working as a journeyman glazier before coming out as trans in her thirties and being forced to abandon her previous line of work. Her writing has appeared in publications like Catapult, Spin, Paste and more. She's a Cancer, and a former smoker. Niko Stratis on Bluesky.

Amie Souza Reilly bought an old house in the suburbs. She had just gotten remarried and was looking forward to a new start with her new husband and her six-year-old son. But immediately after moving in, the next-door neighbors began a crusade to push them out. The two brothers followed her, peered in her windows, stood in her yard, trapped her inside her car. As they broke boundary after suburban boundary, she found herself implicated in their violence. Human/Animal merges personal narrative and cultural criticism to unleash the complicated relationship between instinct and action, violence and regret. This bestiary-in-essays wrestles American colonialism, horror films, feminism, and gender studies to confront the intrusive neighbors the author could not. Ultimately, this book asks larger questions about proximity, care, and the line between human and animal.

But these clients were looking to her to write things like email, webpages, and more. On today's episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Maile is sharing secrets to successful pitching, plus offering her take on AI and what she's seeing with her clients.
