Picture a summer filled with ghostly tales, eccentric relatives, and the kind of nostalgia that brings back all the feels of our own childhood adventures. That's what we're unpacking as Kylee, Susie, and our special guest, Justin—Kylee's husband—gather around the mic to chat about Craig Davidson's "The Saturday Night Ghost Club." We kick things off by comparing the book's youthful vibes to "Stranger Things," while also delving into its more weighty themes. Listen as Justin shares his fresh take after finishing the book, and we chew over the surprising blend of medical insights and storytelling that shapes Jake's character.Our journey leads us to Uncle Calvin's wacky occultorium—a place where ghost stories are as common as the bizarre leads on hauntings he collects via his "bat phone." We share a touching moment featuring Billy Yellow Bird, a young boy longing to connect with his late grandmother, and how Uncle Calvin's kindness shines through these whimsical adventures. We explore the bonds between Jake and his friends, delving into his budding friendship with Billy and his charming crush on Billy's sister, Dove. Together, they navigate the innocent yet complex terrain of growing up amid ghost stories and carefree escapades.The episode takes a chilling turn with tales like the Screaming Tunnel, where we uncover more about Uncle Calvin's emotional layers and his passion for storytelling. As we laugh our way through playful fan casting sessions, imagining the perfect actors to bring these vibrant characters to life, we reflect on the fantastical and heartfelt elements that make this story resonate. Throughout it all, the warmth and wisdom of Uncle Calvin leave an indelible mark on Jake's life, making "The Saturday Night Ghost Club" a tale of nostalgia, mystery, and the irresistible charm of childhood.Support the showEditing done by Connor Luther @clfilms.coMusic by @thundercatlouisMERCH SHOP HERE

He lives with his wife and five kids north of Baltimore, Maryland. 7 components: exchanges, segments, scenes, utterances, vocalizations, body language, dialogue tags   Scenes (emotional movement); Segments (portions of the conversation within the scene); Exchanges (char participate in the conversation--character voice); Utterances (char's participation)   Touch on the reaction of char, even if not verbal, or they get lost in the fog and the reader forgets the char is there (pulls them out of the book). Don't skip a char for more than two segments.   How do I use this in memoir?  (Resource: Michael Lewis (nf writer)) Get someone's vocalization in the segments. (Inner dialogue counts) exchanges create energy in the text. Rapid back and forth.  Powerful narrative voice tells story in a reflective (authentic and vulnerable) way, but use scenes whenever possible. Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey. Voice example. Handmaid's Tale (fictional memoir) doesn't feel dialog-lite.   Vocalizations (what comes out of their mouth)(absence of vocalizations count too) Body language shapes the vocalizations. Dialogue tags: they are for I.D.; what they do/embellish; shape the vocalization (put said at end, readers ignore; at beginning, it slows them down; in middle of sentence, creates pauses for the reader to imagine the scene.)   Char Voice: words, topics, body lang, construction of utterances (punctuation, length, how often participate in conversation) Plotters: think about personality of char, how do you want the reader to describe character? Plan out main character's voice before you start writing. What kind of body language will they have? What does this personality sound like?   Jeff Elkins: dialoguedoctor.com; courses and community Ep#53: Dialogue Doctor Jeff Elkins Interview from 2/1/2022.   Next Episode: Different Types of Editing and Budget Alternatives Resources:  Thinking in Pictures by John Sayles

Hey Travel Tales listeners, this week on Unpacked, we have a fantastic interview with travel legend Rick Steves. Since he launched his company in 1976, he has sent millions of Americans abroad, either through his guided tours or via his many, many guidebooks. But his mission—to “curate culture shock”—comes with a cost.  Rick has long been aware of the environmental impact of encouraging so many people to travel, but he found that carbon offset programs didn't do enough to alleviate his concerns. So Rick and his team created the Rick Steves' Europe Climate Smart Commitment, which donates $30 for every traveler on their tours to a carefully selected set of nonprofits.  Rick came on the podcast to chat about the program, as well as his views on ethical travel. But the conversation was so wide-ranging and rich—touching on everything from dual-narrative travel to his belief in the power of crossing borders—that we decided to split it into two episodes.  This week's episode focuses on Rick's constantly evolving views on travel, his mission, and his belief in self-imposed carbon taxes. And next week, we'll drill down into his Climate Smart Commitment with his chief operating officer, Craig Davidson.  Resources Read this week's show notes, including a full transcript of the episode. Listen to Rick's podcast, Travel With Rick Steves. Learn more about the Rick Steves' Europe Climate Smart Commitment.   Read our story about a climate change reporter who wanted to fly less. Check out our primer on carbon offsets and the programs that can make a difference.  Catch up on Unpacked, season two: How to Make Hard Travel Funny, According to a Comedian The Making of a Patagonian National Park Are You Ready to Hand Over Travel Planning to the ChatGPT and AI Bots?

Why do we love scary stories? Has the pandemic changed the way we think about horror? Are we more or less willing to take a fictional walk into the darkness during these difficult times? In our inaugural podcast, Artistic Director, Sean Wilson speaks with three talented authors. Two of the three books- Stephen Graham Jones' The Only Good Indians and Andrew Pyper's The Residence, would best be described as horror novels or thrillers and one, the story collection Cascade by Craig Davidson is not, but Craig is no stranger to horror which he writes under the bestselling pseudonym Nick Cutter.

Ballet Idaho leadership canceled its March 2020 performances due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But it filmed the dress rehearsals and released that via livestream the following month.

THE FUTURE OF AN AGRONOMIST – WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING IN 2030? Agriculture has changed and will continue to change at a rapid pace. Never before have all levels of agricultural production been under the spotlight more than today. How we as an agricultural community go on the offensive to insure the success and prosperity in the next 10 years of production? If growers have to adapt, so will agronomists.

I'm very excited to start a new book! This wasn't entirely intended (influenced only by when I received the book from the library), but The Saturday Night Ghost Club (by Craig Davidson) starts today with episodes 1-4, right when most other people are watching Stranger Things 3 (I've only seen the first season + the first episode of season 2 so far). This is a spooky book, and really good so far. So dive in with me! The theme music in today's episode is titled "Hor Hor" by composer Alexander Nakarada, and is available under a public domain license.

This week we have three guest on at once - Author Craig Davidson, author Nick Cutter and author Patrick Lestewka. Thing is - their all the same person. This is one of my favourite episodes. Louis is on fire with ideas and questions but our 3 in 1 authors are up for not only Louis' energy but my geeky enthusiasm. Plus we have an AMAZING giveaway.

The audience at La Mama Courthouse demanded encore bows from the cast of Rust and Bone on the night of its Victorian premiere performance, which they very humbly gave and most definitely deserved. Caleb Lewis’ three-pronged play asks a lot of its actors, and quite a bit from its audience as well. A trio of male performers - Luke Mulquiney, Adam Ibrahim and Glenn Maynard in this production - play out three of the stories from Craig Davidson's collection of the same title. Ibrahim plays a SeaWorld whale trainer whose leg was torn off by an Orca, Maynard a fading boxer in need of someone to fight for, and Mulquiney a crazed dog fighter who's struggling with his infertility. The narratives are all interspersed, such that Lewis needs to carefully choose when to switch from one to the next, director Daniel Clarke has to think carefully about how to transition between stories, and the actors have to be ready to change gears in an instant. As well as that, each of them needs to have the range to play all of the key supporting characters in the other two stories, most memorably a vigorous American boxing trainer, a bouncy surrogate son, a long-suffering wife and a lively new girlfriend. It’s always impressive when actors can play different ages, genders and nationalities without falling into stereotypes or farce. It certainly changes the equation when multiple stories are being told at once. It can make it harder for the audience to orient themselves at the beginning, and easier for them to drift away in the middle. The strong characterisations certainly help here, as does the very tight choreography by Ingrid Voorendt. For her, a boxing punch, the shattering of rust and bone, becomes a very effective motif to express the torment of these three characters. It definitely makes for the cleanest transitions, and, if nothing else, snaps the audience out of any confusion. Certain parts of each story feel very similar and almost interchangeable, which often seemed intentional. Of course, all three protagonists are men who are frustrated with the limitations of their bodies, and who loathe themselves much more than those around them ever could. There’s always something exhilarating about watching parallel lives play out in such tantalising proximity, both literally given it’s a small stage but also in terms of their inner experiences, even if their outer experiences might be wildly different. Making this many hops between the three stories, Lewis doesn't always land gracefully. Not all of the threads get tied securely, and some of the most thought-provoking moments are barely given any breathing space. No doubt, for each audience member, one narrative will probably emerge with all the connections intact while another might have a few pieces missing for them. It all depends on what makes a greater impression on you: the spiritual escapism of the whale story, the primal intensity of the boxer's tale or the urgent pathos of the dog fighter's plight.

Sweet Nothing: Stories (Mulholland Books) Richard Lange is one of our most highly acclaimed literary mystery writers. He has been hailed as a “natural-born storyteller” and compared to great masters like Raymond Carver and Denis Johnson. His debut, Dead Boys, was called “one of the best short story collections of the past 50 years” by the San Francisco Chronicle, and it put his name on the literary map. Now he returns to the form that started it all with his latest collection, Sweet Nothing. A gambler tries to hide his addiction on a date at the racetrack. An ex-con must decide between cashing in on a lucrative heist and staying the course as a small-time security guard. And a recovering drug addict yearns to connect with a beautiful woman during his graveyard shift at Subway. With the dark side of Los Angeles as a backdrop, these ten unforgettable stories artfully combine the honest characterization of Junot Díaz with the edge-of-your-seat energy of Dennis Lehane. They capture and crystallize the mistakes and poor judgments that truly make us human, and reveal how a moment's misstep can irrevocably shape a life.  Praise for Sweet Nothing: “Skillfully constructed.…Lange portrays the lives of people struggling to survive, with the focus on families, both blood-related and chance-made.”—Booklist “For all the darkness that runs through the stories…Lange maintains a disarmingly light touch, finding plenty of human comedy in the proceedings without sacrificing empathy.…Lange's morality tales are not that far removed from the classic stories of O. Henry and Guy de Maupassant. With a distinctive style, Lange makes his downbeat tales of the underclass quirkily entertaining.” —Kirkus Reviews “Utterly believable postcards from the edge; for those who like their realism not so magical but right there at street level.” —Library Journal “The best stories are rabbit holes. You read the first lines, maybe a page, and you're down there. Somewhere else. Another life. Richard Lange is one cwazy wabbit.”—James Sallis, author of Drive “What makes this collection a wonderful read is that it's only marginally akin to anything else. Swift, gut-wrenching, and sometimes cleverly disarming fiction by a master.”—Joe R. Lansdale, author of The Thicket and Edge of Dark Water “I've been reading Richard Lange's work since Dead Boys blew my doors off years ago, and goddamn, the man just keeps getting better. The stories in Sweet Nothing traffic in the vagaries of the human heart, those wants and needs that push us down dark paths. His vision is steely-eyed, yet you sense that Lange loves his characters—even the worst of them—and that compassion sharpensyour own emotional investment in this powerful brace of stories.”—Craig Davidson, author of Cataract City Richard Lange is the author of the story collection Dead Boys and the novels This Wicked World and Angel Baby. He is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, and his fiction has appeared in Best American Mystery Stories 2004 and 2011. He lives in Los Angeles.

Colin Marshall goes to Toronto to talk with Craig Davidson, author most recently of Cataract City, a novel of boxing, wrestling, dogfighting, factory work, and friendship in Niagara Falls. In addition to the books published under his own name, which include Rust and Bone, The Fighter, and Sarah Court, he writes horror novels under the names Nick Cutter and Patrick Lestewka.

In a pub in Toronto's Swansea, Colin Marshall talks with novelist Craig Davidson, author of Rust and Bone, The Fighter, Sarah Court, and most recently The Fighter, all under his on name, and author of horror fiction under the pseudonyms Nick Cutter and Patrick Lestewka. They discuss Toronto's distance, geographical and in sensibility, from Niagara falls; his potential attraction to desperate settings; modern man's longing for "the test" to be put to; how he came to write books containing no pursuit more genteel than factory labor; Niagara Falls' national bisection, with the black-and-white divide on one side and red-and-white on the other; the effects of the possibility stream into which we each are born; his use of pseudonyms, and whether readers cross over from one to the other; his writing, no matter under which name, novels of the visceral; what Stephen King knows about putting the grotesque right up next to the mundanities of the working class; the decline of boxing, and its continued importance as a stage for pure conflict; the way a fight lets you answer the question "Who am I?", and what he learned when he lost two of them in the name of promotion for The Fighter; the 90-percent female fiction-buying audience, and how he writes for the other 10 percent; how we love wrestling as kids for its moral clarity, then come to see "the general patina of gray"; what counts, in his books, as purely Canadian; and the one simple thing you must do if you don't love your job.

Nick Cutter is a Canadian author of short stories and novels, who has published work under both his own name, Craig Davidson, and another pen name Patrick Lestewka.
