SUMMARY: We live in a society inundated by endless sources of entertainment and cheap dopamine. In today's book, Anna Lembke discusses how we can respond to such dangers, like, for instance, a pool table. Friend, either you're closing your eyes to a situation you do not wish to acknowledge, or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated by the presence of a pool table in your community.Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right hereI say, trouble right here in River CityWhy, sure, I'm a billiard playerCertainly mighty proud I sayI'm always mighty proud to say itI consider that the hours I spendWith a cue in my hand are goldenHelp you cultivate horse senseAnd a cool hеad and a keen eyeJ'evеr take and try to findAn iron-clad leave for yourselfFrom a three-rail billiard shot?But just as I sayIt takes judgment, brains, and maturity to scoreIn a balkline gameI say that any boob can takeAnd shove a ball in a pocketAnd I call that slothThe first big step on the roadTo the depths of deg-ra-day--I say, first, medicinal wine from a teaspoonThen beer from a bottle!An' the next thing ya knowYour son is playin' for moneyIn a pinch-back suitAnd list'nin to some big out-a-town jasperHearin' him tell about horse-race gamblin'Not a wholesome trottin' race, no!But a race where they set down right on the horse!Like to see some stuck-up jockey boySettin' on Dan Patch?

SUMMARY: Kellen is behind on his reading, and he needs your help! (Sounds like a Saturday morning PBS cartoon...). Kellen gives a rundown of most of the books he's read so far this year; also he has an idea for a very classy author name; and at around the 15-minute mark he quits recording for a full day to recover from starting to lose his voice in real time (and--if you catch when it happens--it sounds like a miracle), and through the magic of editing, he picks it up right where he left off and you don't have to hear his vocal chords slowly die after that.WATCH KELLEN'S NEW COMEDY SPECIAL ON YOUTUBE!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpBt0W1zrDU&t=1237s-Get two free tickets to any of Kellen's live shows in 2025 by joining The Book Pile's Patreon at:https://www.patreon.com/TheBookPile-Dave's book / game The Starlings is here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CMBBLGXN?ref=myi_title_dp-Kellen Erskine has appeared on Conan, Comedy Central, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, NBC's America's Got Talent, and the Amazon Original Series Inside Jokes.

SUMMARY: It's been 3 years so we gave this book "another go" as they say in non-American English speaking countries, like Wizard Land.  Today we cover the second Harry Potter, which managed to improve on the original, and is also – no offense – the only book you could get rid of without changing anything important. Don't be mad, but if the series just went straight from Sorcerer's Stone to Prisoner of Azkaban, you basically wouldn't know any better.

I'm on the East Coast about to speak at a corporate event filled with tech leaders of a very large company. As I'm backstage, the CEO comes up to me and says, “Remember Kymberlee, these are incredible people who are amazing at what they do, yet they aren't really bought into the idea of storytelling in the business environment.” With that, I'm introduced and take the stage. After the applause dies down, I can tell the mood in the room is quite serious. So I have everyone stand up and start an icebreaker exercise. That's when I hear the first person laugh. And then the next, and the next, and pretty soon the whole room is laughing, connecting, and having fun. The energy in the room has shifted. At the end of the session, I ask them what some of their most memorable moments from the day are. Without skipping a beat, they pointed out the laughter during the icebreaker changed their internal story. We know that laughter does a body and a brain good. Jason Love spreads that joy everywhere he goes. He's a nationally touring standup comedian who has appeared on TV in a few places you may have heard of, like Comedy Central and HBO. In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll hear his insights on connecting with diverse audiences in storytelling through devices like humor and lessons we can learn from comedic storytellers, as well as get answers to questions like: How can you begin testing new material for a story, Talk, or performance? Why are people drawn to comedic storytellers like Dave Chappelle and Martin Lawrence? And what's it like to navigate in the world currently as a comedic storyteller or performer? What you will learn in this episode: What attitude you can take with you anytime you perform or tell a story How you can adapt your story or Talk to diverse audiences How you can be completely present before a story or Talk Who is Jason? Jason Love is a nationally touring headliner who has appeared on HBO, Comedy Central, America's Got Talent, and Dry Bar Comedy.
