This week, author Sash Bischoff discusses her hit debut novel Sweet Fury, a twisty, thought-provoking novel in conversation with the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Bischoff is interviewed by author Kathleen Rooney. This conversation originally took place February 12, 2025 and was recorded live at the American Writers Museum.We hope you enjoy entering the Mind of a Writer.AWM PODCAST NETWORK HOMEAbout Sweet Fury:When a beloved actress is cast in a feminist adaptation of a Fitzgerald classic, she finds herself the victim in a deadly game of revenge in which everyone, on screen and off, is playing a part."Cunningly ambitious, twisty, and immersive, it seduces you into a story so compelling that you aren't ready for the sucker-punch of its deeper truths. This is a hell of a debut." —Rebecca MakkaiLila Crayne is America's sweetheart: she's generous and kind, gorgeous and magnetic. She and her fiancé, visionary filmmaker Kurt Royall, have settled into a stunning new West Village apartment and are set to begin filming their feminist adaptation of Fitzgerald's Tender Is the Night.To prepare for the leading role, Lila begins working with charming and accomplished therapist Jonah Gabriel to dig into the trauma of her past. Soon, Lila's impeccably manicured life begins to unravel on the therapy couch—and Jonah is just the man to pick up the pieces. But everyone has a secret, and no one is quite who they seem.A twisty, thought-provoking novel of construction and deconstruction in conversation with the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald and told through the lens of the film industry, Sweet Fury is an incisive and bold critique of America's deep-rooted misogyny. With this novel, Bischoff examines the narratives we tell ourselves, and what happens when we co-opt others into those stories; and she probes the blurred lines between victim and perpetrator and the true meaning of justice.SASH BISCHOFF is a writer and theater director. She has written plays that have been developed at theaters throughout the US. As a director, she has worked on Broadway and off.

Just like homing pigeons have some way of always returning home, we as Christians have the Spirit that draws us back to God no matter how far away we may drift. Repentance is not only for the unbeliever, but also for us as believers, and we need to stop wherever we are and return to God.

Homing pigeons have a way of always returning home. In the same way, when we become believers in Christ, the Holy Spirit acts as a sort of "homing mechanism" inside of us that draws us back to God, no matter how far we drift. Repentance isn't just for the unbeliever -- it's a reminder for each of us who have strayed to stop where we are and return to God.

Pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, les moyens de communication sur le champ de bataille étaient rudimentaires et souvent compromis par les combats. Les pigeons voyageurs jouaient alors un rôle crucial en transportant des messages à travers les lignes ennemies. Parmi eux, "Cher Ami", un pigeon voyageur devenu célèbre pour avoir sauvé près de 200 soldats américains en 1918, reste l'un des héros les plus célèbres de ce conflit. L'histoire de Cher Ami se déroule en octobre 1918, durant la bataille de l'Argonne, en France. Le "bataillon perdu", une unité de la 77e division d'infanterie américaine sous le commandement du major Charles Whittlesey, s'était retrouvé encerclé par les forces allemandes dans une forêt dense. Coupés de leurs lignes et sans moyen de communication fiable, ces soldats souffraient de lourdes pertes sous un feu nourri, y compris par des tirs amis venant de leurs propres lignes arrière, qui ignoraient leur position exacte. Les soldats tentèrent d'envoyer plusieurs pigeons pour alerter leur QG, mais la plupart furent abattus par les Allemands. Finalement, Cher Ami, dernier espoir des soldats, fut envoyé avec un message désespéré attaché à sa patte : "Nous sommes le long de la route parallèle à 276.4. Notre propre artillerie tire directement sur nous. Pour l'amour de Dieu, arrêtez cela." Lors de son vol de retour vers les lignes alliées, Cher Ami fut touché par une balle ennemie. Il fut gravement blessé à la poitrine, perdit un œil et eut une patte presque sectionnée. Pourtant, malgré ses blessures, il continua de voler sur plus de 40 kilomètres en 25 minutes, parvenant à livrer son message. Grâce à cet exploit, l'artillerie cessa ses tirs et les 194 soldats encore en vie du bataillon perdu furent sauvés. Après cette mission héroïque, Cher Ami fut soigné par des médecins militaires qui lui fabriquèrent une petite jambe en bois. Il fut ramené aux États-Unis en tant que véritable héros de guerre et décoré de la prestigieuse Croix de Guerre française pour sa bravoure. Cher Ami mourut en 1919, et son corps empaillé est aujourd'hui exposé au Smithsonian National Museum of American History, rappelant son rôle crucial dans l'histoire militaire. Son histoire incarne le courage et l'ingéniosité des animaux utilisés en temps de guerre, démontrant qu'un simple pigeon peut changer le cours de l'histoire. Hébergé par Acast.

Fue durante las guerras mundiales cuando las palomas mensajeras desempeñaron un papel clave en la comunicación entre los frentes. Se encargaban de transportar mensajes a través de líneas enemigas, salvando millones de vidas al garantizar la transmisión de información vital cuando otros métodos fallaban. Cher Ami, fue una de esas palomas convertidas en héroe, que incluso llegaron a recibir condecoraciones por su valentía y por su contribución al esfuerzo bélico.

David Sánchez publica 'Animales de combate', un libro que recoge las hazañas de los animales más olvidados por la historia, cuya labor ha sido fundamental en múltiples guerrasLa relación entre personas y fauna se remonta miles y miles de años atrás. Su domesticación consolidó cambios clave que permitieron el desarrollo sociedades: Cuidaban rebaños, protegían las casas, permitían el transporte de personas y mercancías, colaboraban en la construcción de infraestructuras, servían de alimento… Pero no siempre se recuerda la labor que muchos animales han desempeñado a lo largo de la historia y que, en ocasiones, ha pasado injustamente desapercibida. Quiero hablar de esos animales que, de una u otra manera, han sido utilizados en combates bélicos. Para contextualizar, una cifra: Durante la I Guerra Mundial, 200.000 palomas fueron utilizadas como medio para llevar mensajes. Una de ellas, Cher Ami, llegó a ser condecorada. Fueron excelentes espías… 100.000 perros transportaron medicamentos, mensajes o localizaron heridos. Por ejemplo, el sargento Stubby, un perro de la raza Boston bull terrier que llegó a ser condecorado por su labor en el ejército estadounidense durante la Gran Guerra: "Colaboró en avisar a su destacamento de un ataque de gas mostaza y consiguió que no fueran afectados. Y colaboró en la captura de un agente espía. Fue un héroe de guerra". Pero en otros conflictos, los canes fueron usados como kamikazes. Millones de burros,...

Part IIIn early October 1918, several companies of the US 77th Division found themselves surrounded in the Argonne Forest during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive.  Led by Major Charles Whittlesey, the Lost Battalion, as it came to be known, survived a hellish six days. It's a story many are aware of – but like most such stories – it's likely that the popular version we are familiar with doesn't have the richness or nuance of what actually happened. To explore the story of the Lost Battalion, the World War I Podcast hosted Robert J. Laplander, author of Finding the Lost Battalion: Beyond the Rumors, Myths and Legend of America's WWI Epic.  Follow us: Twitter: @MacArthur1880 Amanda Williams on Twitter: @AEWilliamsClark Facebook/Instagram: @MacArthurMemorial www.macarthurmemorial.org

This week, author Kathleen Rooney discusses her new book From Dust to Stardust, a novel about Hollywood, the cost of stardom, and selfless second acts, inspired by an extraordinary true story. Rooney is joined by writer and lecturer Ignatius Aloysius. This conversation originally took place September 6, 2023 and was recorded live at the American Writers Museum. About From Dust to Stardust: Chicago, 1916. Doreen O'Dare is fourteen years old when she hops a Hollywood-bound train with her beloved Irish grandmother. Within a decade, her trademark bob and insouciant charm make her the preeminent movie flapper of the Jazz Age. But her success story masks one of relentless ambition, tragedy, and the secrets of a dangerous marriage. Her professional life in flux, Doreen trades one dream for another. She pours her wealth and creative energy into a singular achievement: the construction of a one-ton miniature Fairy Castle, the likes of which the world has never seen. So begins Doreen's public tour to lift the nation's spirits during the Great Depression―and a personal journey worth remembering. A sweeping journey from the dawn of the motion picture era through turbulent twentieth-century America, From Dust to Stardust is a breathtaking novel about one determined woman navigating change, challenging the price of fame, and sharing the gift of real magic.

Female V Voice Actor Cherami Leigh sits down with Dan Allen, to discuss all things Cyberpunk 2077!

Episode 166 is  the sixteenth in a new series of episodes that chronicle the story of the Garrison investigation in  New Orleans and the related trial of Clay Shaw.  Today's episode is the first in a  two part multi-espisode mini series on Rose Cherami.  You may recall that the story of Rose Cherami dons the opening scene of the movie JFK. She was a stripper and a prostitute and a drug mule and a mother. And she worked for Jack Ruby at one point. She is one of a unique handful of witnesses who expressed knowledge of the assassination before the assassination actually occurred and she met with a mysterious death within two years of our president's murder. Her story was not featured in the Warren Commission but her fantastic story was unearthed soon after by Jim Garrison and his  team, including Frances Fruge  who was  on loan to Garrison from the Louisiana State Police. Fruge was the officer who originally interacted with Rose and heard her claim of the impending assassination for the first time on the night of November 20th, 1963.  Her story was investigated further by the House Select Committee on Assassinations.  Ironically, Cherami was admitted for drug detoxification  on the night of the 20th at East Louisiana State Hospital. The same hospital where Lee Harvey Oswald had applied for a job while in the Clinton/Jackson area.  It was a very small world.  Listen to these three episodes and see how the characters begin to draw closer together in relation to one another. As the ever deepening analysis draws out the players, and exposes the relationships that most clearly existed. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Episode 167 is  the seventeenth in a new series of episodes that chronicle the story of the Garrison investigation in  New Orleans and the related trial of Clay Shaw.  Today's episode is the  second and last in two part multi-espisode mini series on Rose Cherami.  You may recall that the story of Rose Cherami dons the opening scene of the movie JFK. She was a stripper and a prostitute and a drug mule and a mother. And she worked for Jack Ruby at one point.

The pigeon – ubiquitous bird, oft city-dweller, and… war hero? You might even consider the humble pigeon to be the first military aviator. Before radio, homing pigeons were one of the most reliable forms of communications for sailors at sea and troops in trenches. The American use of these feathered aviators really took off during World War I when trench warfare made it dangerous for human runners to deliver messages from the front line. And these birds were not only integral to communications, some even rose to the level of heroism. On today's episode, Emily and Matt take you through the history of this often overlooked military asset and tell the story of one hero bird, Cher Ami.

Be sure to use code: HERDSODA at drinkolipop.com and save 15% on all orders!The domestic pigeon (Columba livia domestica or Columba livia forma domestica[2]) is a pigeon subspecies that was derived from the rock dove (also called the rock pigeon). The rock pigeon is the world's oldest domesticated bird. Mesopotamian cuneiform tablets mention the domestication of pigeons more than 5,000 years ago, as do Egyptian hieroglyphics.[3] Research suggests that domestication of pigeons occurred as early as 10,000 years ago.[3]Pigeons have made contributions of considerable importance to humanity, especially in times of war.[4] In war the homing ability of pigeons has been put to use by making them messengers. So-called war pigeons have carried many vital messages and some have been decorated for their services. Medals such as the Croix de Guerre, awarded to Cher Ami, and the Dickin Medal awarded to the pigeons G.I. Joe and Paddy, amongst 32 others, have been awarded to pigeons for their services in saving human lives.Despite this, city pigeons today are seen as pests, mainly due to their droppings. Feral pigeons are considered invasive in many parts of the world, though they have a positive impact on wild bird populations, serving as an important prey species of birds of prey.[5]

NEW PODCAST!  LISTEN to my WIOX show (originally aired October 5th, 2022) featuring award-winning poet Lissa Kiernan, who will read from and discuss her most recent poetry collection, The Whispering Wall.  Planet Poet's Poet-At-Large, Pamela Manché Pearce, also joins us on the show.  The Whispering Wall, Lissa Kiernan's second full-length poetry collection, won the 2020 Homebound Publications Poetry Prize and was a semi-finalist for Tupelo Press Dorset Prize. Her previous books are Glass Needles & Goose Quills, winner of the Nautilus Gold for lyric prose, and Two Faint Lines in the Violet, finalist for the Julie Suk Award and IndieFab Award. She received her MFA at Stonecoast and holds an MA in Media Arts from The New School. She founded and directs The Poetry Barn, a pollinator habitat for poetry in the Catskills, and AIM Higher, a nonprofit organization dedicated to elevating women artists. She volunteers with Flying Cat Music and, with her husband, Chris Abramides, is an enthusiastic herder of a fluctuating number of felines. lissakiernan.com “Besotted with, weighted with Beauty, The Whispering Wall constructs delicious sonic tangles and brutally candid testimonies. Kiernan's lyric recording of multiple losses—of father, fertility, beloved natural places, sheer breathing spaces destroyed by human encroachment—provides the elegant architecture guiding each poem. Seductions and menacing of drink, of violence, shadow the speaker's journey. Guiding all is the gorgeous dreaminess in Kiernan's voice, pouring into us its alchemies: art itself is the elixir that distracts from, or miraculously surpasses, illusion or myth. A witchy and sardonic wit's at work, too, in these poems, singing with Stevie Smith, and with Plath. What a great gift of solace and heart this book is.”—Judith Vollmer, author of The Sound Boat: New and Selected Poems “Elegiac and alive with all five senses, plus whatever sixth sense allows us to perceive the metaphysical mysteries of life and death, Lissa Kiernan's The Whispering Wall limns the mists of grief and memory and delineates the lucidity of having a body.”—Kathleen Rooney, author of Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk and Cher Ami and Major Whittlesey   “...Kiernan deftly weaves her own personal narrative into the lives of other artists (including Remedios Varo, Leonor Fini, and Leonora Carrington), historical events, computer systems, mythological figures, and even aerodynamics concepts, so that the collection subtly expands the dimensions of what the self means... “—Christien Gholson, author of All the Beautiful Dead and winner of The Bitter Oleander Press Library Of Poetry Book Award Yours in Radio, Sharon

Aquesta setmana us portem la hist

Programa 02x135. Avui us portem una biografia molt especial! S

RJ and Elle conclude their coverage of Augury by looking at research conducted on birds.  RJ establishes the intelligence of Corvids, and then discusses the sad relationship humans have with pigeons. He brings up the domestication of the pigeon, and messenger pigeons. He then discusses pigeons who are decorated war heros including Cher Ami and G.I. Joe who saved hundreds of lives by delivering intelligence during the world wars. RJ also discusses Project Pigeon, which was an attempt to train pigeons to be suicide bombers during world war 2. RJ concludes by looking at the future of homing pigeons, specifically the joke/not joke of IPoAC which is a theory that carrier pigeons would be faster and more efficient than the internet at delivering data. Elle does a reading for Jonathan at the Tracy Aviary. Specifically, the helmeted curassow from Venezuela imparts its wisdom.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/mancy)

Rose Cherami Fallen PedalsThe Ochelli Effect 2-8-2022 Michael MarcadesThis is a JFK assassination-related story. It is also a larger study looking beyond the veil into a part of American life that remains unseen in polite society. Special thanks to Bob Wilson for reintroducing Chuck to Michael. Both appeared at the 2017 Lancer Conference.Author Michael Marcades shared his investigation into his mothers' life. Who was his mother? Rose Cherami, the minor character in Oliver Stone's JFK movie script that predicted the assassination days before it happened.She was a real person. Rose was simultaneously common and uncommon in the time and subculture she lived through. Her son tells us a lot about his mother that most interested in JFK's murder may be partially aware of, but not fully comprehend.Chuck did his best to frame the Rose Cherami story with Michael that he could in two hours. It may require another two hours to fairly cover what is in the book, but the whole story can't be covered without a lot more time.

World War One was full of many great stories of bravery, sacrifice, and loss. The American "Lost Battalion" was one such story. Over 600 American infantrymen were surrounded by German forces in the Argonne Forrest in October of 1918. Their own American artillery mistakenly fired on their position and the only saving option rested on the wings of the carrier pigeon named Cher Ami.Veteran Suicide Hotlines:
