Final Draft - Great Conversations

As I was casting around for which book we could discuss in this week's book club I got to thinking about all the ways we organise our reading and think about our books (some more obvious than others) And the thing is, if you're in the know then you know but for others it can be a mire of acronyms and loosely defined genres.A part of this discussion is inspired by a book I'm reading but haven't quite gotten to the point that I want to pull it apart for a book club…This book is YA (that's Young Adult fiction) but it's probably more accurately described as middle grade. See already there's all sorts of distinctions around age. Middle grade is books aimed at the 8-12 year old set, while YA hits around 13-18.Now I know that there are plenty of fully adult listeners out there still enjoying wizards and vampires and I don't want to get proscriptive. These categories are helpful for finding books with relatable protagonists, btu we'd be in a lot of trouble (I think) if people only read books where the lead looks and sounds a lot like them.As well as being a mid-grade/YA novel, this book also loosely falls into the genre of Cli-Fi. I'm sure a few of you have already guessed that Cli-Fi stands for climate fiction. Here again we don't necessarily have the clearest of delineations but suffice to say that Cli-Fi encompasses books that deal with the impacts and effects of climate change in all its permutations.The label Cli-Fi is credited to the author and freelance journalist Dan Bloom. The term was first used in reference to a novella Bloom had written back in 2011.Of course this doesn't mean that Cli-Fi magicked into being only a decade ago. Writing that deals with the climate and more specifically changes in the climate have been around for a while (doesn't the Bible have a climate change story?)I've come up against the term numerous times over the years and I have to admit it can seem a little slippery. I believe this more a product of the difficulty in finding some simple way to characterize writing; whether it be aimed at a group, a country, or an age there are always going to be a range of tastes and styles that people gravitate towards.Cli-Fi can variously be realist or speculative. It may be set in the ‘now' (whatever that means for a constantly evolving world), in the near future or even the distant future.The science in Cli-Fi is usually to some degree credible. Of course science changes as we learn more, but Cli-FI tries to engage with real science more than the purely imaginative or impossible.If you're looking for Cli-Fi it's everywhere. Margaret Atwood's Oryx And Crake trilogy is an example but Australian authors produce some incredible examples including Alexis Wright's The Swan Book, James Bradley's Clade and Jennifer Mills Dyschronia.And Cli-Fi can be for all ages, which kind of brings us full circle. I know we've talked about the work of Mark Smith on book club and his most recent If Not Us pits a teenage protagonist against the polluting business that is the mainstay of his town.In these YA Cli-Fi novels we see narratives of climate change and climate action that centres and empowers young people. We live in a world where legally the minister for climate apparently has no duty of care to protect young Australians from the impacts of climate change. It's not surprising then that climate anxiety is a real phenomenon amongst young people the world over.I'm not trying to suggest that Cli-Fi, or simply telling noise stories is the way to solve the climate crisis, but I do believe that the adage if you can't see it you can't be it can apply to all of us through our life.Climate change operates on a planetary level and that can seem daunting but through genres such as Cli-Fi and its intersection with YA and middle grade novels, young people have a model and an example of their role. It also allows them to explore the science in a way that can be more accessible.

One out of every 10 young people between the ages of 16 and 24 is neither working nor in school. These “disconnected” young people face an uphill battle finding work and are at risk of economic hardship well into adulthood. Although there are many programs that aim to reconnect young people to education and employment, findings from evaluations of these programs have been mixed. The evidence base has grown substantially in the past several months, though, as studies of three pro­grams — YouthBuild, Year Up, and New York City’s Young Adult Internship Program (YAIP) — have released new findings. MDRC’s Dan Bloom and Cynthia Miller recently wrote a brief that discusses findings from the new studies and their implications for youth programs.

When a cryptic op-ed appeared in The New York Times, it set off a frenzy in US politics. The writer, an anonymous senior official in the White House, criticized the President for whom they served as amoral. With his interest piqued, co-host Dan Bloom decided to do a little online sleuthing. Although the writer's identity remains unknown, there was one key clue that led to Dan's guess. Vice President Mike Pence happens to use an unusual word conspicuously often that also appears in the op-ed: "LODESTAR," defined as “a star that is used to guide the course of a ship.” Just two days later, while basking in the viral notoriety of his hypothesis, Dan was surprised to find his own vocational lodestar suddenly go dark when he was laid off. Luckily, a new, and exciting project quickly materialized, which in turn led to an invitation to the Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism conference (ARIJ18) in Jordan. When David Ross left a steady office job to find his own lodestar in more creative work, he could never have anticipated the emotional peaks and valleys he would come to traverse. Along this path, David developed resilience, resolve, and tangible skills like the art of booking talent. David is now using this unique skill set to manage musicians and other acts with his company “Forest and Farms.” DJ/Producer wunderkind Dreamcast (http://soundcloud.com/burymeinamink), indie rock band Ladygod (http://soundcloud.com/ladygodftw), and NBA legend Rod Strickland all make appearances in David's story, which illuminates the invaluable lessons of “consistent persistence,” self-discovery, and transformative reinvention.

When a cryptic op-ed appeared in The New York Times, it set off a frenzy in US politics. The writer, an anonymous senior official in the White House, criticized the President for whom they served as amoral. With his interest piqued, co-host Dan Bloom decided to do a little online sleuthing. Although the writer's identity remains unknown, there was one key clue that led to Dan's guess. Vice President Mike Pence happens to use an unusual word conspicuously often that also appears in the op-ed: "LODESTAR," defined as “a star that is used to guide the course of a ship.” Just two days later, while basking in the viral notoriety of his hypothesis, Dan was surprised to find his own vocational lodestar suddenly go dark when he was laid off. Luckily, a new, and exciting project quickly materialized, which in turn led to an invitation to the Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism conference (ARIJ18) in Jordan. When David Ross left a steady office job to find his own lodestar in more creative work, he could never have anticipated the emotional peaks and valleys he would come to traverse. Along this path, David developed resilience, resolve, and tangible skills like the art of booking talent. David is now using this unique skill set to manage musicians and other acts with his company “Forest and Farms.” DJ/Producer wunderkind Dreamcast (http://soundcloud.com/burymeinamink), indie rock band Ladygod (http://soundcloud.com/ladygodftw), and NBA legend Rod Strickland all make appearances in David’s story, which illuminates the invaluable lessons of “consistent persistence,” self-discovery, and transformative reinvention. One of David’s aforementioned acts, Ladygod, is playing a show at Washington DC’s Songbyrd Music House on Wednesday, January 9th, 2019.

Philip Hammond claimed his Budget meant austerity was coming to an end.There was more money for the NHS, defence and to help ease the roll out of the universal credit.And sprinkled on top of the spending spree was a new round of income tax cuts.But how generous was the Chancellor?And does his boast about ending austerity stack up?In the latest Ayes to the Left podcast the Mirror’s Kevin Maguire, Jason Beattie and Dan Bloom deliver their verdict on Budget.They go through the small print to find out who are the winners and losers and explain why the spending squeeze is going to continue for years to come.They also look at Labour’s response and discuss how John McDonnell may have made a strategic blunder in refusing to reverse the tax cuts which overwhelmingly benefit the very richest at the expense of the poorest.

We have seen the best and worst of politics this week. There has been the Home Office shambles on Windrush and the searing debate in the Commons on anti-Semitism. The issues may be cause to despair but amid the gloom we have seen Parliament at its best: MPs speaking from the heart, holding power to account and engaging in honest debate. In this week’s Ayes to the Left podcast Jason Beattie, Nicola Bartlett and Dan Bloom pick through a difficult few days for both Labour and the Conservatives. They examine why Theresa May and Amber Rudd got caught out by the Windrush fiasco, the government’s botched response and what are the political consequences. They don’t hold back in apportioning the blame: how the Conservatives have used immigration for base political advantage since coming to power in 2010. The Mirror’s political team also review the anti-Semitism debate which saw powerful speeches from Luciana Berger, Ruth Smeeth and others. Has Jeremy Corbyn done enough to tackle the problem in the Labour Party? And could it damage Labour at next month’s local elections?

Sophia Hoffman was just 11 years old when she competed in last year’s Jackson-Clay County spelling bee. She had spelled her way past all her competitors but one, seventh grader Kush Sharma. The showdown between the two would be a fateful one, and not for the faint of heart. These two mental gladiators both spelled without error for sixty-six rounds, exhausting the approved word list. Two weeks (and 29 additional rounds!) later they locked horns again and when the dust settled, Sophia had finally found her match. But that didn’t dissuade the young competitor, who is already known as one of the country’s top spellers. This year Sophia Hoffman is back at it and competing at the Scripps National Spelling Bee for the first time. Today on the Scripps National Spelling Bee Podcast, producer Dan Bloom speaks with Sophia about her amazing experience, incredible poise, and the redemption she found this year.

Today, we debut the maDCap tour company. Please sign in with our meeter/greeter Jill Holbrook, and find your seat in the CRV (Certified Recording Vehicle) for a trip into the heart of the nation's capital. Your guides for today are David Ross & Dan Bloom, and our featured guest is Tom Berninger, director of the film "Mistaken for Strangers." His story goes like this... Two creative brothers, the elder of whom is wildly successful, looms large over the younger's creative ambitions. Matt Berninger is lead singer of 'The National,' they have six acclaimed albums and sold-out world tours. His younger brother Tom is trained as a filmmaker and while looking for his next step in life, jumped at the chance to serve as assistant tour manager on one of Matt's tours. Although the gig didn't exactly go as planned, Tom made the fortuitous decision to bring his camera along for the ride. After his unceremonious exit from his job on tour, Tom retreated first to the family home in Cincinnati, and then decamped at Matt's Brooklyn abode to craft the film 'Mistaken for Strangers.' Matt's wife Carin Besser deserves no small part of the credit. She's a former fiction editor at The New Yorker and lent an expert hand to Tom in shaping his melange of footage into a cohesive and compelling narrative. 'Mistaken for Strangers' is worth your time and it's out in theaters, On Demand and iTunes today. -- For more information on the film, visit http://MistakenForStrangersMovie.com Tom Berninger tweets at http://twitter.com/TomBerninger The film's twitter account is http://twitter.com/NationalMovie -- Meanwhile, 'The National' is going on tour in support of their sixth studio album "Trouble Will Find Me."
