Podcasts about Commonwealth

Lindsay Clancy spent her career as a labor and delivery nurse helping mothers through the most vulnerable moments of their lives. Prosecutors say that same job is proof she knew exactly how to work the people who were supposed to save her. She's charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan, at their Duxbury, Massachusetts home on January 24, 2023. She's pleading not guilty by reason of insanity. Roughly three months before the killings, prosecutors say she typed something about her older children into her phone, a note a prosecutor later read aloud in court. The Commonwealth's case leans on the mundane: a text at 4:53 saying she didn't feel like cooking, a takeout order at 5:10, her husband out the door at 5:15 for dinner and a pharmacy run, back a little after six. Prosecutors say she measured that window using the exact clinical composure her job trained into her. The defense says she'd been begging that same medical system for help for weeks and was handed prescriptions instead. She's permanently paralyzed after going out a second-story window the night her children died. If convicted of first-degree murder, Massachusetts law gives the judge no discretion: mandatory life without parole. If she's found not criminally responsible, she's committed to a locked state psychiatric hospital instead, not set free. She's already been in state custody since 2023. Jury selection began July 20 in Plymouth Superior Court. The job that once meant she saved lives is now the state's argument for why she took some. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy murder trial — prosecutors want a jury to look at her résumé and conclude she understood exactly what she was doing.She was a labor and delivery nurse. That is the fact the Commonwealth wants to sit in front of the jury while it argues deliberate premeditation. A woman who worked in maternal health knew the language, knew the screening tools, and knew how to present. Kevin Reddington's response is that she used all of that knowledge to ask for help, repeatedly and specifically, and the system handed her prescriptions and a discharge paper instead.This is the full three-part conversation between Tony Brueski and criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta covering the entire case.The first segment goes through the prosecution's evidence — the timing of a takeout order, an errand, and a note on her phone that a prosecutor read out loud in open court. The second examines what is left of the defense after the pretrial rulings, including the decision to keep women who have survived postpartum psychosis off the stand, and the roughly thirteen psychiatric medications her attorney says she was prescribed over about four months. The third takes on the justice question directly: what a verdict is supposed to accomplish when both outcomes end in confinement, and why the people who wrote those prescriptions will only ever face a civil claim.Patrick Clancy buried three children, asked the world to forgive his wife, sued her doctors, and will take the witness stand.Cora was five. Dawson was three. Callan was eight months old. This trial is going to make a lot of people pick a side they did not expect to pick.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, the prosecution wants the jury to know what she did for a living — and to draw a very specific conclusion from it.She was a labor and delivery nurse. The Commonwealth's argument is that a woman with that training knew how the mental health system evaluates a patient, knew what to report, and knew how to shape what people saw. Kevin Reddington's answer is that she was the one patient in the entire chain who could name what was happening to her, and every institution she named it to still sent her home.This is the complete three-part conversation between Tony Brueski and criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta.The opening segment works through the prosecution file — the text about not feeling like cooking, the dinner order, the errand that put her husband on the road for roughly fifty minutes, and a note prosecutors say she typed about her older children months before. The middle segment takes on the defense, including a ruling that keeps women who have survived postpartum psychosis out of the witness box, the medication history her lawyer describes as roughly thirteen prescriptions in about four months, and the nineteen days between a psychiatric discharge and three deaths. The final segment asks what any verdict here is supposed to accomplish, given that one path leads to a state hospital and the other to mandatory life without parole.There is also Patrick Clancy, who buried three children, asked the public to forgive his wife, is suing her doctors, and is going to testify.Cora, Dawson, and Callan were five, three, and eight months old. Everything in that courtroom is being argued through their mother.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy trial coverage — the Duxbury mother's own phone may be the strongest witness the prosecution has, and she is the one who filled it.Prosecutors say a note Lindsay Clancy typed about her older children roughly three months before their deaths belongs in front of the jury. They also say her phone shows her checking how long her husband would be gone on the evening of January 24, 2023. He left at 5:15 to pick up dinner and medication. He was back a little after six.The Commonwealth calls that planning and has charged her with three counts of first-degree murder. Her attorney, Kevin Reddington, does not dispute that she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. He disputes that the person who did it was capable of understanding any of it, and he has a stack of medical records he says proves the system had been failing her for months.Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski to pull the prosecution's case apart. The hardest thing to explain to a jury is that severe psychosis does not announce itself — a person can be completely untethered from reality and still send a text about takeout. Whether twelve strangers can hold both of those ideas at the same time may decide this entire trial.There is one more piece the state is counting on, and it has nothing to do with the phone. It is what Lindsay Clancy did for a living, and how prosecutors plan to turn her career into evidence that she knew precisely what she was doing and precisely who to tell.Cora was five. Dawson was three. Callan was eight months old.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis defense — the women who could explain it best have been shut out of the courtroom by a judge's order.Kevin Reddington asked to call women who have survived postpartum psychosis so a jury could hear what it does to a person from someone who has actually been inside it. Judge William Sullivan said no. That leaves the defense explaining the most important concept in the case entirely through paid clinicians, in a trial where the Commonwealth is seeking a first-degree murder conviction.The rest of the defense file is documentation. Lindsay Clancy told her husband at the end of December that she was having thoughts of hurting her kids. She admitted herself to a psychiatric hospital on New Year's Eve and was discharged. Nineteen days later, Cora, Dawson, and Callan were dead. Her attorney has said she was prescribed roughly thirteen psychiatric medications over about four months, and both she and her husband are suing the providers who wrote them.Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski for an honest look at whether any of this is enough. Can a jury be convinced that planning and psychosis coexist? How much did that ruling actually cost her? And what does a jury do with a father who buried three children and then asked strangers to forgive the person who killed them?There is also the question every person following this case wants answered — whether the woman at the center of it will ever open her mouth in that courtroom.The defense's position is simple. Every institution that could have stopped this had the information and did nothing with it.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

People searching the Lindsay Clancy trial want to know about postpartum psychosis and the insanity defense. What almost nobody is covering is the pattern of prosecution moves that shaped this trial before it ever started.Between July 9 and July 20, the Commonwealth made three deliberate plays. Strangulation charges dropped to eliminate a jury's middle ground between life without parole and a psychiatric hospital. Lay witnesses who survived postpartum psychosis blocked from testifying about what the illness feels like. Defense expert witnesses challenged on the first morning of jury selection before a single juror sat down.Tony explains why the pattern matters more than any individual ruling. Massachusetts law puts the burden on prosecutors to prove criminal responsibility once insanity evidence is introduced. That means the prosecution needs to control the information the jury receives, and every voice that gets removed from the room is one fewer obstacle to their proof.The episode also covers what Reddington asked for and didn't get. He wanted the judge to tell jurors about the reversed burden before opening statements. Prosecutors objected. The judge sided with the prosecution. So the jury enters not knowing who has to prove what — and the Commonwealth gets to build its case first.Plus: what the defense has left after the bench was stripped, the eighteen-juror panel, and why the version of her mind the jury carries into deliberation depends on who they never heard from.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Lindsay Clancy murder trial is underway in Plymouth Superior Court, and the Commonwealth's most damaging piece of evidence may be something she wrote herself.Prosecutors have told the court that months before her three children died, Lindsay Clancy left a note on her phone about her two older kids. It has been read aloud in a courtroom already. It will be read again in front of a jury, and everybody in that room knows exactly what it does to a person hearing it cold.Around it sits a timeline the state has assembled out of nothing but ordinary domestic life. A message about not wanting to cook. Dinner ordered. A husband sent out for takeout and a prescription. A window of roughly fifty minutes. Prosecutors say she measured it. They have charged her with three counts of first-degree murder and argued this was deliberate.Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski to work through what the Commonwealth actually has and where it is weaker than it looks. The central problem for the prosecution is one most people have never thought about — a person in a full psychotic episode does not necessarily look like one. They can answer a phone. They can order food. They can pass, right up until they do not.There is also the matter of her profession, which the state intends to hold up as evidence that she understood the language of mental health well enough to use it. Her lawyers see the same fact and call it proof that the system failed the one patient who knew how to ask.Cora. Dawson. Callan. Five, three, and eight months old. The verdict turns on what was in her head, and the state says her phone already answered that.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Lindsay Clancy verdict has two possible outcomes, and neither one of them ends with her going home. Most people following this trial do not realize that.A finding of lack of criminal responsibility in Massachusetts leads toward commitment in a state psychiatric hospital, with reviews to determine whether release is ever appropriate. A first-degree murder conviction carries mandatory life without parole, with no discretion left to the judge at all. One path is a locked hospital, the other is a locked prison, and the jury is choosing between them based on what it concludes about a mind.Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski for the argument underneath all of it. Why the Commonwealth is prosecuting this case with the intensity it is when the alternative already ends in confinement. What society gets out of putting a permanently disabled woman into a prison system that will spend the rest of her life managing her medical needs. Whether the rulings coming out of Plymouth Superior Court have been even-handed, given that the sentence itself allows for nothing.There is a second courtroom in this story that nobody talks about. Both Lindsay and Patrick Clancy have sued the medical providers who treated her. If those civil claims succeed on the theory that the treatment triggered the break, the people who prescribed will pay money and continue practicing. She will be the only human being who ever stood in front of a jury over these deaths.And the question that keeps getting pushed to the back of every conversation — what does justice for Cora, Dawson, and Callan actually look like when every argument in the building is about their mother?END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The pattern matters more than any single ruling. In eleven days, the prosecution in the Lindsay Clancy trial made three moves that all point the same direction: narrowing who gets to explain her mind to the jury.On July 9, prosecutors dropped all three strangulation charges. They called them redundant, and legally that is correct. But strangulation charges sitting next to murder charges give a jury room to land somewhere in the middle. Without them the only options are first-degree murder, life, mandatory — or not criminally responsible.On July 13, Judge William Sullivan blocked the defense from calling women who survived postpartum psychosis to testify about their experience. Reddington wanted them on the stand. Prosecutors argued it would open the door to women who suffered the same illness and did not kill their children. The judge agreed and said experts can cover it.On July 20, the first morning of jury selection, the prosecution moved to exclude defense expert witnesses before a single juror was seated. The judge allowed the motion but called it premature. It can be renewed at any time.Tony explains what the pattern reveals about the Commonwealth's strategy. Why the reversed burden of proof in Massachusetts makes every blocked witness a tactical win for the prosecution. What Reddington tried to do about it and why the judge turned him down. And what the defense has left to put in front of eighteen strangers who will decide what happened inside a woman's mind.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everybody knows Lindsay Clancy was sick. The defense will prove it, the prosecution won't seriously contest it, and her husband has been saying it publicly since the beginning. That's not the fight. The fight is what she understood while it was happening.Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan at the family's Duxbury, Massachusetts home in January 2023. Her attorney, Kevin Reddington, has argued for years that she was misdiagnosed and overmedicated and that what followed was psychosis she could not control.The Commonwealth's answer showed up in a pretrial fight over witnesses. Prosecutor Jennifer Sprague, arguing against letting other mothers testify about postpartum illness, described women who went through it and locked themselves away from their children, or drove off rather than risk it. Judge William Sullivan ruled those witnesses out. The idea behind the objection is going to trial anyway.Tony Brueski opens the mailbag on a case that has divided this audience straight down the middle — mothers who recognize the illness, people who can't get past three children in a basement, and people stuck holding both at once.Sullivan is seating eighteen jurors, six more than the standard panel. Patrick Clancy, who has said publicly that he forgave his wife, is listed as a defense witness. Lindsay Clancy is paralyzed from the waist down and has been held at Tewksbury State Hospital since her arrest.She has never spoken to law enforcement. A jury is being asked to read a mind that has never made a statement — using prescription records, a search history, and the words of people who were not in that house when it happened.A conviction means life without parole. A finding of not guilty by reason of insanity means a hospital with periodic review. Cora was five. Dawson was three. Callan was eight months.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The old joke about nuclear fusion power is that commercial deployment is 30 years in the future: it always has been and it always will be. It may be time to retire that joke. Private fusion companies have now raised billions in capital, and pilot plants are moving from slide decks and plans into steel and concrete. The questions now are not so much around whether fusion power can ever work, and more about how soon it can reach the grid, and at what costHost Ed Crooks and regular contributor Amy Myers Jaffe, director of the Global Energy, Climate, & Sustainability Lab at NYU are joined by two fusion industry leaders to discuss the rapid progress they are making. Andrew Holland is founder and chief executive of the Fusion Industry Association, and Bob Mumgaard is chief executive of Commonwealth Fusion Systems, one of the companies vying to have the first commercial fusion power plant in operation.Andrew lays out the state of the sector. There are 56 private fusion companies globally, which between them have raised more than $14 billion in private capital. And there is a growing conviction inside the industry that commercial fusion could arrive in the early 2030s. Bob explains why Commonwealth believes SPARC, its demonstration project in Massachusetts, and ARC, its planned power plant in Virginia, can help make that timetable real.Fusion has moved beyond the era when government science programs defined the pace of progress. Research backed by governments and universities has played a vital role in moving the technology forward, but Andrew argues that competition, venture capital and milestone-based development have changed the industry's tempo. Crucially, the industry has not put all its eggs in one basket. Multiple companies are pursuing different technical paths, including both laser-based approaches and magnetic confinement systems, in a race to commerciality. Bob offers the clearest lay explanation of what fusion power means in practice. Commonwealth Fusion Systems uses a tokamak, which is essentially a magnetic bottle that holds a star inside it. Fusion creates heat, which can be used to run a steam turbine. Unlike wind and solar, fusion does not depend on weather or geography. Unlike fossil fuels, it does not rely on continual fuel deliveries.The episode also explores why fusion developers believe the technology could avoid some of the political and regulatory burdens that have constrained nuclear fission power. Because fusion reactions are hard to start and easy to stop, the risks are fundamentally different from those of a conventional fission reactor. Bob and Andrew argue that this changes everything from plant safety to siting to licensing, and could make fusion much faster to deploy if the technical hurdles are cleared.They also discuss what it will take to build an industry, not just a few prototypes. Amy pushes on fuel cycles, lithium, superconducting tape and supply-chain readiness. Bob argues that these challenges are real but manageable, and Andrew points to the growing ecosystem of manufacturers now positioning themselves for a future fusion market. The wider point is that fusion is increasingly starting to look like a manufacturing and industrial-policy story, not just a laboratory science story.That leads to the biggest question of all: if fusion works, how much could it matter? Bob sketches outcomes ranging from a valuable but still niche source of clean baseload power to a genuinely transformative technology. Andrew goes even further, arguing that fusion could decouple energy from geography and geopolitics in a way no fuel-based system ever has. If the industry's ambitions are realized, within the next ten years fusion could emerge as a commercial energy source with real consequences for grids, markets and global power.

Replacement Theology has been a very dangerous and hateful doctrine that has devasted Jewish people throughout church history. We've learned how bad over the past week and a half, and we're now learning about the grafting in of the Gentile church to the Jewish people of God, and in particular in today's program, we'll learn what Paul was referring to when he talked about Gentiles being part of the Commonwealth of Israel.

Get ready to get deep into the realm of Special Education. As a general ed teacher, I've had a love-hate relationship with how best to work with special education students and the teachers who support them. While I understand the necessity, the implementation in a general education classroom often felt awkward and overwhelming. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. I'm also sure our special education teachers have similar grievances when dealing with general ed teachers.So I decided to do a deep dive to better understand the history of our SPED programs, how they are supposed to work, and whether they are really benefiting the students they serve. This deep dive was too big to fit into a single episode, so Jen and I decided to create several episodes to give this topic the time it deserves. Welcome to Episode one:The History of Special Education (SPED)In this episode of Transparency in Teaching, Jen and I dive deep into the history of special education (SPED) in the United States. We start with a light-hearted conversation about Jen's rigorous walking routine, but quickly transition into the main topic: the evolution of special education. In this episode we discuss:Early Days of Special Education:Initially, children with disabilities were often institutionalized or kept at home with no formal education.Wealthier families could afford private tutors or specialized schools, but most families had limited options.Legislative Milestones:A series of laws from 1958 to 1968 began addressing the needs of children with disabilities, but these were piecemeal efforts.Notable acts included the Captioned Films Act (1958), the Training of Professional Personnel Act (1959), and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (1965).Major Legal Cases:Brown vs. Board of Education (1954): Although primarily about racial desegregation, it laid the groundwork for arguments against segregating children with disabilities.PARC vs. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (1971): This case established that children with intellectual disabilities had the right to public education.Mills vs. Board of Education of D.C. (1972): Extended the right to free public education to all children with disabilities, regardless of the cost.The IDEA Act:The Education for All Handicapped Children Act (1975), later renamed the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), guaranteed a free appropriate public education (FAPE) to all children with disabilities.This act has been reauthorized multiple times but has not been updated since 2004.Current Challenges:The IDEA Act is outdated and needs reauthorization and updates to address current educational needs and funding issues.The Americans with Disabilities Act (1990) further ensured accessibility in public spaces, including schools.Jen's Perspective: She is struck by how long it took for meaningful changes to occur and empathizes with the struggles of parents both past and present.Anne's Perspective: She is concerned about the IDEA Act's outdatedness and the lack of recent updates to address current educational challenges.We wrap up by encouraging listeners to reflect on the history of special education and its impact on today's educational landscape. We also tease the next episode, which will delve into the current state of special education, including enrollment numbers and costs.Listeners are invited to share their thoughts and experiences related to special education on our website, TransparencyInTeaching.com, where they can also find past episodes and blog posts.Key Points Discussed: Reflections and Takeaways:Conclusion:Call to Action:

The UK government has become so ideologically captured, they will need to rewrite a 1971 law before they can deport Shabir Ahmed, ringleader of the Rochdale child grooming gang who was set free on early release this month. Nick Freitas, retired Green Beret and author of The Manbook, just returned from the UK and tells Dr. Drew how a once-great country ended up with a two-tier justice system. Ahmed was sentenced in 2012 to 22 years for multiple offenses as the leader of a gang that targeted girls in Rochdale. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said that to deport Ahmen, first the UK government must change Section 7 of the Immigration Act 1971, which currently shields Commonwealth nationals who arrived before 1973 from removal. Nick explains what institutional capture looks like when protecting a narrative outranks protecting children. Also on today's show: Wynton Hall — managing editor of Breitbart News and author of CODE RED: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI — on the US-China AI arms race. Hall argues that as the US restricts its most powerful models over safety concerns, China is racing ahead and using American AI tools to run influence operations. Nick Freitas is the author of The Manbook: A Point-by-Point Guide to Sucking It Up and Getting the Job Done. A retired US Army Special Forces (Green Beret), he served two tours in Iraq after service with the 82nd Airborne and 25th Light Infantry Divisions.

Today we explore three unusual stories from Virginia folklore: the ghost legend associated with Sarah Shelton Henry, the mystery of the Beale ciphers, and the modern tale of a werewolf-like creature in Henrico County. Along the way, we will separate the documented history from the legends that grew around it. Virginia was one of the thirteen colonies that declared independence from Britain, but its human story reaches back much farther. Archaeological evidence shows that people have lived in what is now Virginia for at least sixteen thousand years. Early communities were mobile hunters, fishers, and gatherers. Over thousands of years, many became more settled. During the Late Woodland period, farming, towns, and far-reaching trade networks became increasingly important. By the early 1600s, Virginia's Indigenous peoples spoke languages belonging to three broad families: Algonquian, Iroquoian, and Siouan. In Tidewater Virginia, Wahunsenacawh—known to the English by his title, Powhatan—inherited authority over six groups. Through diplomacy and force, he expanded that alliance to include between twenty-eight and thirty-two tribes and smaller chiefdoms. This alliance did not include every Native nation in Virginia, and its population numbered in the tens of thousands. European contact also began earlier than the original article suggested. Spanish Jesuits attempted to establish a mission in the Chesapeake region in 1570. Jamestown, founded in 1607, became the first permanent English settlement. Relationships between the English and Virginia's Native peoples included trade and diplomacy, but also warfare, dispossession, and forced displacement. Virginia's Native nations survived those events and remain part of the Commonwealth today. This long and complicated history provides the setting for some of Virginia's most enduring folklore...

Richie is joined by Tony Gosling and Marilyn Hawes. Counter terrorism police are now leading the investigation into the death of Ann Widdecombe after "new information and evidence" came to light, officers have said. A 28-year-old white British man from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, originally arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday, has now been re-arrested on suspicion of commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. Speaking in the House of Commons on Monday, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood confirmed the suspect was not known to the government's Prevent anti-terror scheme. Widdecombe, a 78-year-old former Conservative minister turned Reform UK spokeswoman, was found dead at her home in Devon, having sustained serious injuries. To discuss this and more, Richie is joined by the writer and broadcaster, Tony Goslinghttps://politicsthisweek.gn.apc.org/Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is to set out the legal steps she will take to deport the freed ringleader of a Rochdale grooming gang. Shabir Ahmed, jailed for 22 years in 2012 for multiple counts of child sexual offences including rape, was released from prison on licence earlier this month. Calls have mounted across the political spectrum for the deportation of Ahmed, who was stripped of his British citizenship following his conviction, leaving him with only Pakistani nationality. But he cannot be deported due to a 1971 law that forbids the removal of a small group of Commonwealth citizens who arrived in the UK more than 50 years ago. To discuss this Richie is joined by Marilyn Hawes. Marilyn is a former teacher who campaigns tirelessly to educate children, parents and teachers on how to protect kids from groomers. https://freedom-abuse.org/

In this episode, we feature the beloved Irish novelist Emma Donoghue, in conversation with OPB’s Crystal Ligori, from the 2025 Portland Book Festival.  Emma Donoghue has extraordinary range, writing for the screen, and the stage, as well as authoring many acclaimed novels. Her international bestseller Room was a New York Times Best Book of 2010 and a finalist for the Man Booker, Commonwealth, and Orange Prizes, and it is what brought her fame and readers all over the world.   She joined us on stage to discuss The Paris Express, a novel based on an 1895 disaster at the Paris Montparnasse train station that went down in history when it was captured in a series of surreal, extraordinary photographs.  It’s a propulsive novel set on a train packed with a fascinating cast of characters who hail from as close as Brittany and as far as Russia, Ireland, Algeria, Pennsylvania, and Cambodia. Members of parliament hurry back to Paris to vote; a medical student suspects a girl may be dying; a secretary tries to convince her boss of the potential of moving pictures; two of the train's crew build a life away from their wives; a young anarchist makes a terrifying plan, and much more.   Emma Donoghue is the author of sixteen novels, including the award-winning national bestseller Room, the basis for the acclaimed film of the same name. Her latest novel is The Paris Express. She has also written the screenplays for Room and The Wonder and nine stage plays. Her next film (adapted with Philippa Lowthorpe from Helen Macdonald's memoir) is H Is for Hawk. Born in Dublin, she lives in Ontario with her family.  As one of the local hosts of OPB's “All Things Considered”, Crystal Ligori seeks out unique stories from diverse communities, often focusing on food systems, pop culture, and LGBTQ+ communities. She also narrates OPB's Emmy-award winning documentary food series “Superabundant” and was the longtime producer/editor for Literary Arts' weekly radio program and podcast “Literary Arts: The Archive Project”. Before joining OPB, Crystal was a host at KUFO in Portland, OR, KZZU in Spokane, WA and KBGA in Missoula, MT. Her work has been heard nationally on NPR Newscasts, APM's “Marketplace”, PRX's “Living on Earth,” and NPR's “All Things Considered”.  An alumna of the School of Journalism at the University of Montana, she has three SPJ awards for television feature reporting and LGBTQ+ Equity Reporting in audio, a Hearst Journalism Award for broadcast news radio features, and shares three regional Emmy awards for her work on Superabundant.
