Between The Covers : Conversations with Writers in Fiction, Nonfiction & Poetry
We welcome back Valeria Luiselli—who first appeared on the show eleven years ago—to discuss her new and truly marvelous novel Beginning Middle End. Much like the shapeshifting god Proteus, who figures prominently in this story, Beginning Middle End is many things at once: a road novel, a family drama, a work of climate fiction, a feminist retelling of classical mythology, a novel about writing, about borders and migration, and perhaps even a field guide for the apocalypse, enacting a way to live and love in a time of rupture and unimaginable change. Join Valeria, Proteus, and a host of pre-Socratic philosophers as we follow the novel’s make-shift family, broken apart and now coming back together anew, in a Sicily beset by metamorphic forces, mythic, geologic, and more.

More US casualties in the war with Iran, the State Department's new neo-McCarthy Cuba blacklist, and the UK gets a new Prime Minister while CPAC Great Britain flops.Tommy and Ben discuss reports that the Pentagon has been covering up the full extent of casualties associated with the war with Iran, the impact of the Houthi rebels potentially getting involved in the conflict, and Trump's threat to bomb a new Iranian nuclear site. The State Department released a new report blaming everything Marco Rubio doesn't like on Cuba, and the guys read it* so you don't have to! (*skimmed it) Then they discuss the national security risk from prediction markets, Trump's decision to slap new tariffs on Canada as its forests burn, and new British Prime Minister Andy Burnham's first days in office. Finally, the guys take you to the first CPAC Great Britain, and discuss Count Binface's deep-space bid to defeat Nigel Farage. Then Tommy speaks to Oleksiy Sorokin, Deputy Chief Editor for the Kyiv Independent, about the latest barrage of Russian ballistic missile strikes and protests in Ukraine over Zelensky's military staffing decisions.For a transcript of this show, email transcripts@crooked.com
Thaddeus McCotter. Thaddeus McCotter discusses how high gasoline prices and affordability issues weigh on the upcoming U.S. midterms. The conversation also covers the Trump administration's use of punitive tariffs against Canada, drawing parallels to the Smoot-Hawley Act, which historically exacerbated the Great Depression by triggering international trade wars.

Jonathan Healey, The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603–1689. The final segment covers the reign of James II, whose open Catholicism and attempts to bypass Parliament alienated his natural Tory supporters. This tension birthed England's first political parties: the Whigs and the Tories. When James had a son, raising the prospect of a perpetual Catholic dynasty, seven leaders invited William of Orange to intervene. William landed in 1688, and James II fled, resulting in the Glorious Revolution. The era concluded with William and Mary as Protestant regents, establishing a constitutional framework that profoundly influenced the founding fathers of America. (8)1655
On the July 20, 2026 edition of The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius breaks down key national security debates and political commentary. She examines Secretary of State Marco Rubio's forceful rejection of International Criminal Court (ICC) jurisdiction, contrasting his defense of U.S. sovereignty with progressive efforts to enforce international warrants against foreign leaders and domestic officials. Servatius also offers a sharp critique of foreign policy decisions under the Trump administration, specifically pointing to JD Vance's Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Iran, which she argues enabled the regime to rearm and directly led to recent U.S. service member casualties in the Middle East. After sharing a reflective quote from Senator Lindsey Graham on the tendency of political figures to overestimate their competition, the broadcast addresses domestic enforcement measures, highlighting Stephen Miller's announcement of a Trump administration plan to strip undocumented immigrants of access to the American banking system as a catalyst for self-deportation.
In the third hour of The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius covers a wide spectrum of national intelligence, entertainment, state politics, and judicial immigration policy. She begins by detailing recently declassified intelligence documents concerning Chinese operations to influence American elections, highlighting claims of altered intelligence briefings within federal agencies. Servatius then turns her attention to the entertainment industry, attributing the perceived drop in television quality to Hollywood's diversity policies while critiquing major media consolidation. Her focus shifts back to South Carolina politics as she analyzes recent GOP primary polling for the U.S. Senate seat, questioning the political legacy of the late Lindsey Graham and the prospects of potential successors. Finally, she reports on the Department of Justice's activation of the Alien Terrorist Removal Court to streamline the expedited deportation of foreign nationals deemed security threats.

Building on national security themes, James argues that the bulk of modern political violence originates from left-wing extremists, citing historical FBI statistics and a recent shooting at an ICE facility in Phoenix. Finally, he celebrates local achievements by announcing his and his colleagues' nominations for the South Carolina Broadcasters Association Star Awards, before closing the hour with a bizarre report on a White House teleprompter operator caught placing bets on the president's speech terminology.

Some guests just drop bombs for an hour straight, and Griffin Brand is one of them. Griffin is a former 75th Ranger Regiment special operator who, at 26, found himself as the lone military advisor to the U.S. ambassador in Kabul, wrangling 20 different three-letter agencies into one room. Now he's in private equity with High Ground, working deals across the restoration industry. If you caught last week's episode with Griffin and his co-author Dan Casey on their book Bring Your Own Pencil, this is the deep dive into the man behind it. This conversation is loaded for anyone leading a business in the trades: restoration, roofing, HVAC, you name it. We get into General McChrystal's "fast and flat" philosophy and how to break down the silos killing your company's speed. Extreme ownership, owning the inputs so the outcomes take care of themselves, why veterans are the best hires in blue collar, and a story Griffin had never told before about an insider attack at the embassy and what it taught him about empathy and leadership. Trust me, you'll want a notebook. Owning a business in the trades can be the loneliest job there is. Head, Heart, & Boots exists to change that, because the best leaders don't go it alone, and neither should you. Why You Should Listen: [11:03] The third door: how Griffin got through every door he was told was closed, including Ranger Regiment [15:09] The leadership move that built instant trust with the highest-ego room on the planet [18:53] Fast and flat: McChrystal's team of teams, and one practical way to run it in your shop tomorrow [34:07] The insider attack story Griffin processes live for the first time, and the empathy lesson he took from it [52:39] Why veterans are the hire your business needs, and how to find them Grab Bring Your Own Pencil on Amazon, Audible, or bringyourownpencil.com.

The Bible gives us significant counsel about how to treat sin and sinners -- especially sin by brethren or former brethren. Unfortunately, it is rarely heeded, and this leads to a slew of unintended consequences. Let's see what the Bible tells us in regard to this phrase.Proverbs 17:9 KJVHe that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.1 Peter 4:7-8 KJVBut the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.James 5:19-20 KJVBrethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.Related Podcasts:— Unto Whom Much is Given— The Law of Faith— The Law and Grace— What of Works?— Missing the Mark— Faith and the Christian Experience— Obedience is the Consequence, not the Cause— Search Me, O God— Forgiveness is Our Solemn Duty— Beware Self-Righteousness— Godly Sorrow, True Repentance— Why Do We Seek Wisdom?— Having the Right PerspectiveRelated Podcasts at TrueWisdom:— Joseph and His Conflicts— Squandered Blessings— Grace, Grace, and More GraceText UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.

On the July 14, 2026 edition of The Charlie James Show (Hour 1), host Charlie James navigates a busy afternoon of political and economic updates. The program begins with a discussion surrounding the death of Senator Lindsey Graham and the swearing-in of South Carolina's interim U.S. Senator. James then shifts focus to local legislative matters, discussing South Carolina primary laws and ongoing federal claims alongside previews of upcoming national events, including a highly anticipated address by Donald Trump. Additionally, the show previews an upcoming interview with Democratic Senate candidate Dr. Annie Andrews. Finally, the hour wraps up with positive economic reporting on cooling inflation rates and the foreign policy implications of a new targeted maritime blockade by President Trump.
In the second hour of The Charlie James Show, host Charlie James provides a comprehensive look at prevailing national and local headlines, blending macroeconomic updates with political commentary. The hour begins with an analysis of a welcome drop in core inflation rates and a breakdown of shifting gas costs locally and across the country. James then reacts to viral World Cup video clips featuring British fans expressing a newfound appreciation for American culture. Turning to local governance, South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson joins the program to break down the legal and logistical complexities of the state's upcoming special primary election. Finally, James wraps up the hour by critiquing the Democratic Socialists of America's newly updated party platform, scrutinizing its radical proposals for systemic change.
During this hour of The Charlie James Show, host Charlie James delivers a broadcast addressing prominent cultural, local, and national topics. He begins by reviewing alternative educational resources designed to counter prevailing Hollywood tropes, paired with a sharp critique of entertainment media's modern presentations. The program then focuses on regional activism as guest Jason Isaac discusses local data center protests and examines the hidden influence of foreign funding on these movements. Finally, U.S. Representative William Timmons joins the program to deliver a heartfelt tribute to the late Senator Lindsey Graham and provide a critical analysis of the Democratic Socialists of America's (DSA) platform.
During the final hour of The Charlie James Show, host Charlie James focuses heavily on systemic oversight, technology abuses, and state voting legislation. He begins with a critical look at privacy violations, detailing how the Greer Police Department recently terminated two officers for abusing the city's AI-enabled Flock Safety license plate tracking cameras. James then shifts to recent legal proceedings, recounting updates from an assassination trial involving the murder of Charlie Kirk, and combines it with public health concerns over a widespread Cyclospora parasitic illness outbreak. This leads into a sharp critique of South Carolina lawmakers for blocking access to over-the-counter antiparasitic drugs like Ivermectin. Finally, James interacts with listeners to announce his nomination for South Carolina Broadcasters Association Radio Host of the Year and addresses a ruling by the state elections commission that explicitly prevents registered Democrats who voted in their own primary from crossing over to vote in the upcoming Republican primary.

Millions of people are gaining access to GLP-1 medications, and while these drugs can dramatically reduce food noise, Leslie explains why quieting cravings isn't the same as healing the root cause. In this episode, she shares her own painful journey through extreme dieting, binge eating, and weight regain, offering a compassionate perspective for anyone considering or currently using GLP-1 medications. Leslie explores what happens beneath the surface when food is used to cope with stress, emotions, and unresolved beliefs. She explains why medications can create an opportunity for change, but lasting freedom comes from addressing the subconscious patterns driving overeating rather than simply silencing the symptoms. If you're looking for permanent weight loss instead of another temporary solution, this episode will help you understand how to use the "quiet" created by GLP-1 medications or any season of change to build a healthier relationship with food that lasts.

What if the biggest risk in your portfolio isn't a crash, a recession, or even inflation, but the very human urge to believe that whatever just worked will work forever? Bill and Jackie sit down with Ben Carlson of A Wealth of Common Sense and Animal Spirits for a market-history masterclass that somehow manages to be equal parts calming, nerdy, and deeply practical. This one is for anyone who's ever stared at their portfolio, read one scary headline too many, and wondered whether simplicity still works. Ben's answer is basically yes—but only if you understand the risks, respect your own behavior, and build a portfolio you can actually stick with. This episode covers: Ben Carlson's "Bob" thought experiment and why even terrible market timing can still work out over the long run Why dollar cost averaging often beats waiting for the perfect entry point The psychology of lump-sum investing versus spreading money out over time What inflation looked like before World War II versus in the modern era How to think about inflation through a personal-finance lens, not just an investing lens Why housing, transportation, income growth, and stocks are major inflation defenses What Japan's lost decades teach us about home-country bias and international diversification Why diversification matters even more in retirement because of sequence-of-returns risk How to think about bonds, cash, duration, and risk tolerance in a more nuanced way . === SUPPORT THE SHOW ===

The St. Louis Morning Brief opens with genuine good news for families: Governor Kehoe has signed Bentley and Mason's Law, forcing drunk drivers who kill a parent to pay child support for the children they leave behind. Marc and Kim St. Onge call it real accountability and real justice. Then a heartbreaking Metro East story — a toddler's body found near Belleville in a suspected parental kidnapping case — raises hard questions about whether the system failed a mother who says she sounded the alarm for years. Marc doesn't hold back on the Seventh Circuit's ruling upholding Illinois' semi-auto ban, calling out an activist judge — a Trump appointee, no less — for parroting anti-gun rhetoric, and predicts the Supreme Court will strike it down. Plus, the Boys and Girls Club steps up with an affordable summer program to keep St. Louis teens off the streets after dozens of curfew violations downtown, and Cardinals slugger Jordan Walker punches his ticket to the Home Run Derby — though Netflix streaming it exclusively has Marc and Kim fuming. Nicole Murray and the markets are next on The Marc Cox Morning Show.

Poet Daniel Borzutsky says of the first, “If The Taiga Syndrome is a book of illness, it's also about exile, disappearance, borders, love, language and translation, desire, capitalism and its discontents, fairy tales, and what it means to be possessed by the madness of others and the madness of ourselves…There is no one writing novels as phantasmagorically exquisite as Cristina Rivera Garza's. The Taiga Syndrome, which is both quietly poetic and narratively unhinged, is a crucial addition to her distinguished oeuvre.” And Yuri Herrera says of the second, “An intelligent, beautiful story about bodies disguised as a story about language disguised as a story about night terrors. Cristina Rivera Garza does not respect what is expected of a writer, of a novel, of language. She is an agitator.” For the bonus audio archive we have an extended conversation with acclaimed translator Suzanne Jill Levine. We explore the pleasures and challenges of translating Cristina’s work; what the collaboration between Suzanne, Cristina and Suzanne’s doctoral student in translating The Taiga Syndrome together looked like; what to expect when pursuing a degree in translation, and more.

What if "legacy" looks completely different when there are no kids in the picture and that difference actually unlocks a freer, more intentional version of FI? In this thoughtful crossover between Childfree Life by Design and Catching Up to FI, Dr. Jay and Bill sit down for the kind of conversation most money media skips: what happens after you hit the number and realize the bigger question is no longer "Can I retire?" but "What am I retiring to?" It's philosophical, personal, a little messy in the best way, and exactly the kind of episode that reminds listeners that FI is not the finish line. It's the moment when the real design work begins. This episode covers: The "fog of FI" and the identity shift that can come after reaching financial independence The childfree midlife crisis and why "now what?" hits harder than many expect Legacy beyond lineage and how childfree people often redefine impact Why it is more important to know what you are retiring to than what you are retiring from The tension between purpose, freedom, and drifting after hitting major goals Health span, lifespan, and why time becomes more valuable once money pressure drops How giving, service, and creativity can become the next chapter after FI Why books, podcasts, and numbers alone cannot answer life-design questions The difference between being rich on paper and living a truly wealthy life Why underspending and over-optimizing can become their own retirement risks . === SUPPORT THE SHOW ===

Every once in a while you record an episode and you know, before you even hit stop, that it's a top-tenner. This is that one. Chris and I sat down with Dan Casey and Griffin Brand - a football coach turned historian and an Army Ranger, to talk about their book Bring Your Own Pencil, the leadership playbook of the legendary Bill Walsh. But this isn't a football episode. It's a masterclass for anyone leading a crew or building a business in the trades - roofing, HVAC, restoration, you name it. How to hold a standard without becoming a tyrant. How Walsh turned betrayal into the greatest coaching tree in NFL history. Imposter syndrome, self-belief before the evidence shows up, and why you should never quit a hit show. Grab a notebook - and bring your own pencil. Owning a business in the trades can be the loneliest job there is. Head, Heart, & Boots exists to change that, because the best leaders don't go it alone, and neither should you. -Brandon Why You Should Listen [10:19] The Hacksaw Reynolds story behind the title — one sentence that set the standard for a dynasty [18:31] Holding standards without a toxic, maniacal culture (their answer punched me right in the face) [21:49] Bill Walsh's origin story is failure — and what he built from it [43:20] The four most powerful words a leader can say [54:53] Lightning round: the books and daily habits every leader should steal Did you know...

"Why do you keep going to the well hoping that you're going to find MCR-flavored water there? There's nothing there, man. MCR is not going to create anything they don't have to." Brian and Lizzie tackle the chaotic realities of the summer touring season. The conversation kicks off with a roasting of the intense heat waves plaguing European festivals, which quickly segues into a deep dive on the viral Pinkpop Festival drama. The hosts dissect the hilarious clash between fans of pop princess Zara Larsson and the heavy-hitting German metalcore outfit Electric Callboy and the bizarrely foul hygiene habits of some modern festival-goers. Switching gears from live show chaos to recorded music, the duo breaks down the internet's collective, desperate hope for a fifth My Chemical Romance album. Evaluating the band's recent move to reopen their classic forums, Lizzie shares the community's frustration with cash-grabs, while Brian drops a harsh truth bomb: with four legendary albums already carrying their legacy, MCR has absolutely no obligation to release new music. To wrap up the episode, the hosts take a nostalgic trip down memory lane to critique the legacy of Pop Goes Punk style tracks, weighing whether modern TikTok covers hold a candle to the scene-defining execution of classic alternative covers.

Bill jumps into a last-minute solo conversation with Rebecca Herbst of Yield and Spread for a surprisingly energizing deep dive into generosity, guilt, and what happens after the finish line of financial independence. Rebecca shares how hitting FI at 32 did not lead to endless victory-lap bliss so much as an identity jolt: if money is a tool, then what is it actually for? This episode covers: Why Rebecca felt guilt, not just freedom, after reaching FI at 32 How giving can be framed as money, time, or skills—not just writing checks Why generosity is a habit and a muscle, especially for lifelong savers The surprisingly small impact that a 1% giving rate can have on your FI timeline How "effective giving" applies investing-style thinking to charitable impact The difference between reactive emotional giving and proactive intentional giving Tax-smart giving tools like appreciated securities, donor-advised funds, and QCDs Why the FI community may be uniquely positioned to normalize bold generosity How giving can become part of a "life portfolio," not just a side project References & Resources Mentioned . === SUPPORT THE SHOW ===
