Clarke County, Virginia, comes alive each fall with vibrant colors, bustling events, and a deep sense of community. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomes Nathan Stalvey, Executive Director of the Clarke County Historical Association, for an engaging conversation that highlights the county's rich heritage and the many ways residents and visitors can connect with its past. Inspiring Young Historians To begin, Nathan shares the excitement of hosting field trips for local fourth graders. These immersive experiences at the Burwell-Morgan Mill, Claremont Farm, and the Josephine School Community Museum allow students to see history come alive beyond textbooks. As Nathan notes, witnessing the curiosity and enthusiasm of children as they interact with historical artifacts and demonstrations is both rewarding and essential for fostering a lifelong appreciation of history. Art at the Mill: A Creative Tradition Transitioning from education to the arts, Janet and Nathan discuss the recent success of the annual Art at the Mill event. This juried art show not only showcases the incredible talent of regional artists but also supports CCHA's mission. With strong sales and community participation, the event continues to be a highlight of the fall season, reinforcing the importance of creativity in preserving and celebrating local culture. Heritage Day: Living History for All Ages Looking ahead, Nathan enthusiastically promotes the upcoming Heritage Day, CCHA's largest history program of the year. Scheduled at the Burwell-Morgan Mill, this free event features reenactors, blacksmith demonstrations, colonial cooking, and hands-on activities for children. Heritage Day offers families a unique opportunity to experience living history, interact with experts from various historical periods, and gain a deeper understanding of the county's diverse past. A New Exhibit: The Spanish Flu in Clarke County Moreover, the conversation turns to CCHA's latest exhibit, which examines the impact of the Spanish Flu pandemic on Clarke County. Curated by Dana Getka, the exhibit takes a personal and artistic approach, highlighting the stories of those who lost their lives and providing a human face to a significant but often overlooked chapter in local history. Complementing the exhibit, a book read-along event invites the community to further explore this poignant topic. Supporting Local History: The Power of Community Giving As the year draws to a close, Nathan emphasizes the critical role of community support and annual giving. Donations, whether large or small, help sustain CCHA's programs, maintain archives, and ensure that Clarke County's history remains accessible for generations to come. The conversation also touches on the many ways individuals can contribute, from volunteering and financial gifts to donating relevant historical artifacts. A Lasting Invitation In conclusion, Janet and Nathan encourage listeners to visit the Clarke County History Center & Archives, participate in upcoming events, and discover the stories that make the county unique.

In this *spoiler free* conversation, host Jason Blitman talks to author Victoria Redel about her book I AM YOU, the November Gays Reading Book Club pick with Allstora.I AM YOU subverts the idea of a 17th-century historical novel — it's intimate, modern, and deeply queer in the way it explores gender, art, and identity. The characters feel so alive and complex that you can't help but get pulled into their world, which makes it a perfect book for thoughtful, layered discussion. It's the kind of book that lingers — beautifully written, emotionally charged, and full of questions about power, love, and what it means to truly see and be seen.Victoria Redel has written four books of poetry and six books of fiction. Her short stories, poetry, and essays have appeared in Granta, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and BOMB, and she's received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Fine Arts Work Center. Victoria is a professor at Sarah Lawrence College and splits her time between New York City and Utah.What do you get when you join the Gays Reading Book Club?Curated book delivered monthly to your door (at a discount!) – the books we'd call “accessibly literary”30% Off Allstora's websiteAccess to the book club “Kiki” to talk about the booksExclusive author Q&AsAllstora donates a children's book to an LGBTQIA+ youthThis club exclusively supports LGBTQIA+ authorsAnd more!Support the showBOOK CLUB!Sign up for the Gays Reading Book Club HERE October Book: Middle Spoon by Alejandro Varela SUBSTACK!https://gaysreading.substack.com/ MERCH!http://gaysreading.printful.me WATCH!https://youtube.com/@gaysreading FOLLOW!Instagram: @gaysreading | @jasonblitmanBluesky: @gaysreading | @jasonblitmanCONTACT!hello@gaysreading.com

In this special Fashion Friday episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav welcomes back fragrance expert Olya Bar for the highly anticipated Fall Fragrance Guide 2025. Together, they explore this season's most sophisticated scent evolutions—where vanilla and oud take on richer, moodier, and more nuanced dimensions.Olya shares how her personal and professional journey has refined her olfactory taste—moving from novelty toward depth and balance. “It's not about losing interest, it's about refinement,” she says, reflecting on how motherhood and her role at Europerfume have shifted her appreciation for scent.Vanilla emerges as the star of the season, but far from the sugary gourmand stereotype. Olya highlights new interpretations—like Vanille Mathonie by Reserve and Afrique, a cinnamon-tinged tropical warmth, and Vanille Poudrée Extrait by Matiere Premiere, a sensual, boozy evolution of the original. Even bolder options like Mancera's Brown Sugar Oud Vanilla blend sweetness with smoky, resinous complexity.The conversation deepens with oud—a timeless yet polarizing note. Olya demystifies its origin, quality variations, and artistry, spotlighting approachable scents like Chabaud's Mysterious Oud and the enduring Montale Dark Aoud. A rising trend? Tropical oud fusions, marrying exotic brightness with earthy warmth.As the fragrance landscape matures, Olya encourages a slower, more intentional approach to scent—treating perfume as a “tasting experience” rather than a trend chase. This fall, she says, is about substance over sugar—fragrances that embody identity, depth, and quiet sophistication.

What could a Swiss Army officer possibly teach you about building and selling companies worth hundreds of millions? Turns out – everything. Today's guest, Sam Goodner, took the discipline and precision he learned in the Swiss Army and applied it to entrepreneurship. He founded Catapult Systems, scaled it through two major recessions, and eventually sold it after 20 years. Later, he helped take Flash Parking from a stuck $3M startup to $100M in revenue and a billion-dollar valuation. Now a mentor at Capital Factory and author of Like Clockwork: Run Your Business with Swiss Army Precision, Sam distills 30 years of lessons into practical principles that help entrepreneurs scale businesses that thrive without them. In this episode, Sam shares why scaling always begins with a sales playbook, how “cloud conversion therapy” won over 100% of skeptical customers, and why annual contingency planning can make your company recession-proof. He also breaks down what it really takes to prepare for a sale years in advance and how unforgettable first-day employee experiences can shape culture for decades. If you're ready to scale with Swiss Army precision and build a company that runs without you, tune in now. — This episode is part of the 8FE (8-figure entrepreneur) series, where we talk to entrepreneurs who have already passed the million-dollar mark. — Key Takeaways: 00:00 Intro 00:02:03 Running a business like clockwork in practice 00:17:00 Curated client experiences turned skeptics into loyal customers 00:25:33 Starting Catapult Systems 00:28:54 Recession-proofing strategies 00:33:49 Separate teams allow multiple ventures under one umbrella 00:38:54 Selling businesses: Define your number and prepare years before exit 00:43:07 Strong EBITDA and audited records maximize company valuation 00:48:17 Choosing investment bankers 00:53:45 “Like Clockwork: Run Your Business With Swiss Army Precision” 00:59:54 First-day experiences build culture and long-term loyalty 01:01:35 Advice to young entrepreneurs 01:05:09 Wrapup — Additional Resources:
