Aden Miller and Kaelyn Conrad join the podcast to discuss their recent trips to national FFA and FCCLA gatherings.

If you've been around a 12 step fellowship or program for any length of time, you've probably heard about a convention. Heck, you've probably been to a convention. It just seems like part of the package. But why do we have conventions? Why are they outside of the basic service structure of the program or fellowship, but instead are their own incorporated entities? Does Narcotics Anonymous have say over the conventions? Some conventions, especially at the world level, have lost quite a bit of money. Is the purpose of conventions to make money? If the purpose of conventions is fellowship, can we afford to lose large amounts of money to put them on? How are they funded? Should we be putting on conventions? In this episode, we look at what conventions are, how they work, and if we believe that they serve a helpful purpose in the program.

Geek Girl Riot is all about dichotomies this week: We talk about two very different fantasy series—Cowboy Bebop and The Wheel of Time—with two very different reactions.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network Podcast Ep 284 Joining us is Marc Simon, the man leading the massive team effort to bring the PGA Merchandise Show back to life as a vibrant in-person celebration of the game.

We explore these questions and more as we examine the future of the PGA Merchandise Show. ---------------- FGN 24/7 Listener Hotline - 989-787-0193 - we want to hear from you!

UPCOMING EVENT on November 11th (Veterans Day): If you'd like to attend a Q&A session on November 11th with Combat Story's Ryan Fugit, please fill out this form (https://tinyurl.com/552ewmu5). Today we hear Part I of the Combat Story of Ray McPadden, a former Army Infantry Officer who survived four deployments that included leading troops in one of the most dangerous valleys of Afghanistan with the 10th Mountain Division and as a Ground Force Commander in the Ranger Battalion. Listeners really appreciate our interviews with Special Operators and it's easy to see why. Many listeners have asked to hear a few more stores from the conventional side of the house. Today's episode focuses entirely on the conventional side of Ray's career and fighting that his Battalion Commander at the time promised would be harder than anything he would go on to do in the Rangers. Ray's experience in the Pech and Korangal Valleys will be eye opening to many who had no idea forces were fighting in this unforgiving terrain and in these isolated conditions. Many have seen Restrepo and the Hornet's Nest and can appreciate just how difficult that fighting was. Ray and his men fought to build the positions and fortifications that would later become the backdrop of those movies and books. We use Ray's own fantastic book - We March at Midnight - as a guide to walk through the first half of his career and will pick up in part two with his time in the Special Ops community. I hope you enjoy this first of two Combat Stories and his fight in what was known as the “Valley of Death” as much as I did.

Game Design, Speaking Up, and Passionate Visions.In this episode of The Outspoken Podcast, host Shana Cosgrove talks to Ashley Guchhait, CEO and Game Designer of Boba Studios and Co-Chair of International Game Developer's Association, D.C. Chapter. Ashley talks all about her company, Boba Studios. We get to hear what it was like finding her team throughout college, at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), how the company was built, and her experience of entering competitions and conventions. Ashley also goes into the details of her game, Squirrely Roo Rabbit. Lastly, we get to hear what Ashley has learned throughout her experiences in the industry and the ways she and her studio have improved. QUOTES “I never raised my hand in class, and when teachers called on me—even in high school—I would be so quiet because you know somebody calls on you and my throat would close up. And I didn't know what to say and my voice would barely come out… Ironically, at this point, I am the person that talks the most at our studio.” - Ashley Guchhait [09:32] “Things that are worth it. They take hard work.”– Ashley Guchhait [29:18] “Sometimes you might get feedback that, you know, it doesn't necessarily apply. But we always really appreciate anybody who will give us critique and talk about it from their perspective.

“Write from experience.” “Show, don't tell.” Self-knowledge. Self-discipline. Well-known conventions like these, whether delivered in classrooms, writing seminars or simply from one writer to another, often anchor traditional writing advice for literary authors and journalists alike in the United States. While they may seem benign and often useful, they also have a history of political utility. Thanks to a network of underwritten cultural projects and front groups, state organs like the CIA and State Department collaborated with creative-writing programs like the Iowa Writers' Workshop and publications like the Paris Review to cultivate and reinforce writing tenets like these. The aim: to focus literature and journalism on the individual, feelings, and details, rather than on community, political theory, and large-scale political concepts. This, of course, isn't to say subversive literature cannot be first person and sensory, or that these modes of writing are per se conservative––but there is a long and well-documented history of conservative, anti-Left institutions pushing them because, on the whole, they veered (or at least were thought to have steered) writers away from the dot-connecting, the structural and the collective. On this episode, we discuss the ways in which first-person journalism, solipsism and creative nonfiction, as taught and prized in the US, reinforce existing power structures, exploring how a Cold War-era history of state- and state-adjacent funding of literary journals, educational programs, and other cultural projects taught writers to center themselves and inconsequential details at the expense of raising urgent political questions and notions of class solidarity. Our guest is author Eric Bennett.
