Send us a textIn this interview with author Susan Tate Ankeny, we talk about her biography of Chinese American WWII Women Air Force Service Pilot, Hazel Ying Lee, American Flygirl, the Aviatrix Book Club discussion book for May 2025. Buy the book: https://literaryaviatrix.com/book/american-flygirl/Children's Books about Hazel: https://literaryaviatrix.com/book/the-fearless-flights-of-hazel-ying-lee/https://literaryaviatrix.com/book/skyward-the-story-of-female-pilots-in-wwii/The Blurb: One of WWII's most uniquely hidden figures, Hazel Ying Lee was the first Asian American woman to earn a pilot's license, join the WASPs, and fly for the United States military amid widespread anti-Asian sentiment and policies.Her singular story of patriotism, barrier breaking, and fearless sacrifice is told for the first time in full for readers of The Women with Silver Wings by Katherine Sharp Landdeck, A Woman of No Importance by Sonia Purnell, The Last Boat Out of Shanghai by Helen Zia, Facing the Mountain by Daniel James Brown and all Asian American, women's and WWII history books.In 1932, Hazel Ying Lee, a nineteen-year-old American daughter of Chinese immigrants, sat in on a friend's flight lesson. It changed her life. In less than a year, a girl with a wicked sense of humor, a newfound love of flying, and a tough can-do attitude earned her pilot's license and headed for China to help against invading Japanese forces. In time, Hazel would become the first Asian American to fly with the Women Airforce Service Pilots. As thrilling as it may have been, it wasn't easy.In America, Hazel felt the oppression and discrimination of the Chinese Exclusion Act. In China's field of male-dominated aviation she was dismissed for being a woman, and for being an American. But in service to her country, Hazel refused to be limited by gender, race, and impossible dreams. Frustrated but undeterred she forged ahead, married Clifford Louie, a devoted and unconventional husband who cheered his wife on, and gave her all for the cause achieving more in her short remarkable life than even she imagined possible.American Flygirl is the untold account of a spirited fighter and an indomitable hidden figure in American history. She broke every common belief about women. She challenged every social restriction to endure and to succDid you know you can support your local independent bookshop and me by shopping through my Bookshop.org affiliate links on my website?

But in 1972 along came the American, Bobby Fischer: insolent, arrogant, abusive, vain, greedy, vulgar, bigoted, paranoid and obsessive - and apparently unstoppable.

The Heiress - Rachel Hawkins  With unexpected twists and heart-throbbing pacing, it draws you into a captivating mystery set within the claustrophobic Ashby House.

For just the second time in history the Hate Expectations team has raced into their local theater to take on a subject that is still new enough to make waves: director George Clooney's The Boys in the Boat (2023), based on the 2013 novel by Daniel James Brown. Nothing gets their hearts pumping and their breath ragged like even a light amount of exercise, except maybe a well written adventure. The story of the 1936 University of Washington crew team swatting away Nazis and the depression with both fists surely is that: the stuff of legends. But does the movie keep pace? Will Lizzy and Nate be swept away all over again? And how does one pronounce Poughkeepsie, anyway? You'll have to listen to this episode to know what's going on inside their skulls. Now, can you give them ten big ones?

This story is a reminder that no matter the odds, with unity and determination, triumph is within our grasp. My hope is that this story, movie, and my review will serve as nspiring you to reflect on your own journeys and the power of persistence? This story could serve as a powerful reminder that it's never too late to pursue one's dreams, regardless of the obstacles in the way. As many of you are aware after reading this bestseller, Boys In the Boat book, but Daniel James Brown. In 1936 nine working-class American boys burst from their small towns into the international limelight, unexpectedly wiping the smile off Adolph Hitler's face by beating his vaunted German team to capture the Olympic gold medal.  Daniel James Brown has written a robust, emotional snapshot of an era, a book you will recommend to your best friends. This book, this story, as well as the film are riveting, it not only recounts a historical triumph but also reignites the fire of inspiration within us. Daniel James Brown's masterpiece, a non-fiction narrative, does just that. It's not merely about the 1936 Olympics in Berlin or the remarkable victory of a University of Washington crew team; it's a testament to the power of perseverance and unity. As you'll hear Daniel James Brown's vivid portrayal of this era in just a few moments, we'll encounter the eight rowers and a coxswain, each with a unique story, all united by a single goal. Their story is set against a backdrop of a world on the brink of change – from the shores of Seattle to the tension-laden atmosphere of Nazi Germany.  It's a story that resonates with all of us, especially as we reflect on our journeys and the hurdles we've overcome. Moreover, Brown's work offers us more than just a story. It's an exploration into the human spirit, a reminder that, regardless of age, the pursuit of excellence and the joy of achievement are always within our grasp. The comparison to Laura Hillenbrand's 'Seabiscuit: An American Legend' is apt – both stories are about underdogs, determination, and triumph against the odds. This story, the book, and now the film are not just a small thing; it's an experience. It's an opportunity to delve into a pivotal moment in history, to understand the intricacies of a sport like crew, which, much like life itself, requires strategy, teamwork, and a harmonious rhythm of many, working as one. So, I invite you to immerse yourself in Daniel James Brown's 'The Boys in the Boat'. It's more than a story about a crew team; it's about the resilience and the collective spirit that defines us all, especially as we navigate the later chapters of our lives. Go see 'Boys in the Boat,' in theaters on Christmas Day!

Jen Huffman gave her son a guilt trip about learning to row. “You would make your great grandpa so happy!” And when your great grandpa is Joe Rantz, 7 seat in the University of Washington crew that took gold at the 1936 Olympics, you learn to row. Jen also took up the challenge and learned to row as an adult, quickly becoming an accomplished masters rower in the Seattle area. Growing up, Jen didn't know much about her Grandpa Joe's rowing history. But late in his life, she found his memorabilia from the crew's trip to the Berlin Olympics. Jen tells us how a scrapbook she made became the jumping off point for author Daniel James Brown's now blockbuster book The Boys in the Boat. Ten years after the book was published, it's become a George Clooney-directed movie. We talk with Jen about the power of rowing and seeing her grandpa brought to life on the big screen. .

They are all rigorous researchers—but reading their books doesn't feel like doing homework. That's what I'm going for, and hopefully I hit the mark a few times. For me, books are all-consuming projects, leaving little other time for the things that should populate this section like hobbies, interests, and even the ability to remain in basic touch with people.

Today's episode is about two books that examine the United States' relationship with other countries during contentious moments in history. First, Here & Now's Robin Young speaks with Daniel James Brown about his book, The Boys in the Boat, which profiles the American rowing team that beat Germany during the 1936 Olympics. George Clooney's film adaptation comes out later this year. Then, NPR's Frank Stasio chats with Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin about American Prometheus, the biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer behind this summer's blockbuster.

Dawgman.com's wanted to put something out that recapped all the news that has come out not just in the wake of Washington's 36-33 win over Oregon this past weekend, but the continued national reaction to the win, and what it could mean for the Huskies going forward - especially for quarterback Michael Penix Jr. And there's also some clarification on the current status of transfer EDGE player Zach Durfee. There was also a number of other things that were newsworthy so far this week. The Huskies are unveiling a new uniform and helmet combination for their game against Arizona State this weekend. This week was also the unveiling of something completely different, yet still rooted in UW Athletics; the movie trailer for The Boys in the Boat, directed by George Clooney. Following the trail of the 1936 UW Rowing team that ended up winning gold at the Berlin Olympics was captured in a best-selling book by Daniel James Brown and adapted to the big screen. There's also a quick discussion about recruiting and the impact the Huskies could have as they finish out their 2024 recruiting class and begin really dialing in on their top targets for the 2025 and 2026 seasons. We'll have a much more in-depth podcast with Scott Eklund that will break down the weekend and the specific targets Washington fans should be paying attention to moving forward.

August 4, 1846. A few months into their journey from Illinois to California, a group of pioneers finds bad trouble. They're in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah and they've just found a note from their guide. It essentially says, “That shortcut I told you take – don't.” The setback disastrously delays their trip. Weeks later, when they Sierra Nevada, it's dangerously late in the season. Soon, an early winter snow traps them in the mountains. What did they have to do to survive? And what's the truth behind the legendary Donner Party? Special thanks to our guest: Daniel James Brown, author of The Indifferent Stars Above: The Harrowing Saga of a Donner Party Bride. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Beowulf speaks to Eric Levitz about whether inheritance transfers will trigger a "millennial civil war" and Daniel James Brown about Facing the Mountain: An Inspiring Story of Japanese American Patriots in World War II.(Note: This is a reupload of an episode initially aired 04/08/22).

In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Mike Adams, Co-Founder & CEO of Grain, a meeting insights platform that raised $22 Million in funding, about how to build the next in-demand product by really drilling down into the problems people deal with on a daily basis. Grain exists to capture, copy, and share key points from live conversations automatically so clients can concentrate more effectively on the conversation itself instead of losing focus on writing notes about it. We also talk about how Grain acquires customers as a startup and builds strong relationships with them, tailoring their solution to a client's specific problem. In addition to that, we also talk about Mark's challenges in navigating remote work through the pandemic, despite his dislike towards remote working. Topics Discussed: Mike's journey from Utah to San Francisco where he built his first start-up and eventually started Grain Mike's experience building MissionU, an education company which was sold to WeWork back in 2018, which is where the idea for Grain came from. Mike's admiration for Sid Sijbrandij, the Co-Founder and CEO of GitLab, particularly about their solid business and company culture. How Mike met his Co-founder and decided to start a company that could record every meeting or interview and store that data in their own software. How Grain acquires big names as a startup. He talks about building good and genuinely needed products that actually solve problems. They were always doing one-on-one on-boarding meetings with their customers to build relationships and tailor the product to the customer's needs. Grain's competitive landscape and market creation. Mike considers Grain as a ‘new flavor inside an existing category'. Mike's greatest challenge while building Grain: COVID and navigating through completely remote work.  Grain's vision for the next three years and how those visions excite Mark.   Favorite book:  The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown

(This conversation was originally broadcast on September 30, 2022.) Welcome back to this encore edition of Midday.  Tom's next guest is Naima Coster, the author of the New York Times best seller, What's Mine and Yours, which has been chosen by Maryland Humanities as this year's One Maryland One Book. That's a program in which Marylanders all over the state read the same book, and have the opportunity to talk about it with other readers, and with the author. Naima Coster's novel explores the dynamics of family and community, and the divisions that course through the lives of sisters and their circle, in a story that pivots from North Carolina to California, France, and elsewhere. Naima Coster was in Maryland in October, engaging readers across the state about What's Mine and Yours. She joined Tom on Zoom from New York before her trip. A reminder that because our show was pre-recorded, we can't take any new calls or online comments. _____________________________________________ ABOUT THE ONE MARYLAND ONE BOOK PROGRAMEvery fall, Maryland Humanities calls for suggestions from the public, as well as from educators, librarians and book clubs, about what book should be chosen as the year's One Maryland One Book selection. The books are selected around a particular theme each year. Past authors whose work has been chosen as the One Maryland One Book selection include Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie, Ross Gay, Lisa See, Mona Hannah-Attisha and Daniel James Brown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“We like to consider ourselves the Waze of surgery,” says Todd Usen, CEO of ActivSurgical. Waze gathers and presents data from the road in real time, so that driver's can navigate their trip successfully and avoid problems before they occur. Similarly, ActivSurgical uses sensors and AI to anticipate problems that aren't visible to a surgeon's naked eye, and complements where a human is limited. This real time data is available not only to the surgeon performing surgery, but to surgeons, live throughout the world.  With everyone having access to the same information, patients entering surgery can rest assured that they can receive a standardized level of care regardless of a surgeon's experience. This also has the potential to decrease time spent in hospital, and lowers the rate of readmission.  Readmission not only increases risk of secondary problems and even death, but has implications on health insurance rates.  Quotes: “Why does the 17 year old driver get all this amazing information that a 50 year old driver gets, whether it's a rear view camera, whether it's an orange light in their side view mirror to tell you that there's a car in your blind spot, a seat that vibrates if you switch lanes. Yet, you go to surgery and a surgeon just out of fellowship doesn't get the same information that a surgeon that's been practicing for 30 years does. It's all intuition and skills. What we're trying to do is bring that information live to the screen. So every patient around the world should have the confidence that their surgeon has the same exact information as other surgeons to get a great outcome.” (3:27-4:03 | Todd)  “The world's not going to be hardware forever.” (8:34-8:36 | Todd) “If you're a football fan, and you ever watched the NFL on TV, you know, there's that first down marker that that we see on the screen, that yellow line, but the players don't see that we see it on TV, I want the players to see that yellow line, I want the doctors to see that yellow line live.” (32:38-32:52 | Todd)  Connect with Brendan Dell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendandell/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BrendanDell Instagram: @thebrendandellTikTok: @brendandell39 Buy a copy of Brendan's Book, The 12 Immutable Laws of High-Impact Messaging: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780578210926    Connect with Todd Usen: activsurgical.comCheck out Todd Usen's recommended books: The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780143136965   Build: An Unorthodox Guide to Making Things Worth Making by Tony Fadell https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780063046061   Rogue Warrior by Richard Marcinko  https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780671795931 Please don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe to Billion Dollar Tech on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

Is it worth investing in individual stocks or should you simply go with ETFs? Joe has recently parted ways with his financial planner and is beginning to manage his portfolio himself and was wondering about the benefits of these choices.  Tanya Nichols and I will explore Joe's questions as well as others on this episode of Retirement Answer Man. Listen in to hear the benefits of owning ETFs vs individual stocks, how to structure your Roth conversions, and what to do about health insurance before Medicare.  Making decisions is rarely a cut-and-dry process When making decisions, we usually look for a clear answer: yes or no, do it or don't do it, jump or don't jump. However, judgment calls are rarely so simple. Usually, we are operating without all of the pertinent information, so we have to make assumptions about how the future will look.  The process of brainstorming is messy. There is no crystal clear way to go about making decisions, and once you do you probably won't know if you chose correctly.  When confronted with choices you'll want to have a framework to explore decisions in an organized way. Then you'll want to relax and consider all the options. When you take the pressure off you'll have more opportunities to come to a good decision. Next, dive into the process and see what comes. You may explore several different scenarios before coming upon your final decision. What I'm reading My strategy for reading this year has been to make reading my default activity. Reading is what I go to when I'm waiting in line, have spare time at home, or when I'm taking a walk (via audiobooks, of course!). This new mindset has led me to read 33 books so far this year. Today I wanted to share with you the most recent books I have read and my thoughts on them.  Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown is an inspiring book that I highly recommend. It chronicles a member of a crew team in the 1920s and 30s and his life journey from childhood and then on to the 1936 Olympics.  Quit was written by Annie Duke the author of Thinking in Bets. Annie was a professional poker player turned decision-making expert. In this volume, she examines how hard it is to quit something once you have started. Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be by Steven Pressfield is a fast read–you could finish it in a day. This is a great book that helps people work on challenging goals. This book will help you get past the resistance.  Courage Is Calling by Ryan Holiday is a book that will enrich your soul.  It Takes What It Takes was written by Trevor Moawad who was a performance coach for elite athletes. This book on mental conditioning promotes the thesis that if you want to be great at something you have to make a choice to do the things to make you great. Making the choice to be exceptional clears the path to greatness because it takes everything else off the table.  The Dichotomy of Leadership by Jocko Willink was written for leaders on the aspects of finding the virtuous mean.  If you have any great book recommendations I'd be happy to hear them. Just head on over the Ask Roger page and leave an audio suggestion or write it in.  OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE OF THE RETIREMENT ANSWER MAN PRACTICAL PLANNING SEGMENT [1:23] On making decisions [4:11] What I've been reading LISTENER QUESTIONS WITH TANYA NICHOLS [19:33] Should Joe invest in individual stocks or ETFs [27:36] What to put in Roth conversions [32:45] What should Todd do about insurance between the ages of 58 and Medicare?

The long-term results can be catastrophic.There's a real art to pushing your team without going too far and many leaders never learn how to strike the balance.
