At 11, during the height of the Cold War, he became one of the 14,000 unaccompanied children airlifted from the Soviet colony of Cuba to the US. He is now a historian of late medieval and early modern Europe who focuses on the Protestant and Catholic Reformations; the history of popular piety; the supernatural, and death. His book, They Flew, was awarded the prize for Best Book in the History of Religion by the American Academy of Religion and has been nominated for the Book Prize in Science and Religion awarded by the International Society for Science and Religion. All of his writings are banned in Cuba, where he has been proclaimed an enemy of the state.

Tracy Eire grew up far to the north in a place called St John's, Newfoundland. She has spent most of her life with one foot in the real world and the other somewhere else—maybe on Mercury, maybe in the realm of myth, or ... somewhere near Hobbiton. It's a place where stories breathe, where the old gods whisper, and where women step out of the fog wearing their strength and brilliance plainly. That is the space her art comes from. An oil and charcoal artist with a deep love for narrative painting, Tracy focuses on portraits of women who feel ancient and modern all at once. These are figures who carry storms behind their eyes, but choose the light anyway. She often paints the things she sought—or witnessed—in her youth: courage, grace, grit, and the quiet power of women who refused to disappear, even when maligned. It's no wonder her harpies wear couture. Tracy honed her skills through the Milan Art Mastery Program, but she's been creating art even longer than she's been reading comic books and novels. She is also a longtime writer of NobleBright fantasy, science fiction, and paranormal tales, and those worlds bleed into her canvases in the form of ghost hunters, fairies, sirens, and banshees like you've never seen before. Every piece she makes becomes a conversation between the storyteller and the painter in her. Sometimes those two voices argue, but ... mostly they cooperate. In every part, she's busy becoming an accomplished storyteller. What Tracy wants when she paints (and hopes for when she writes) is that her work makes people feel something strong and true. Maybe it's a spark of recognition. Maybe it's the sudden sense that someone out there sees your resilience, your mythos, your story. Her work is tied to the belief that compassion is just as legitimate a curveball as cruelty, and that good can prevail over despair. Perhaps that's because her art is built on legends, imagination, and memory—on women who didn't give up, and the enduring truth that courage still matters. Whether you meet Tracy's work on paper, on canvas, or in a book, the promise inside it is the same: she will always try to make something that speaks to you, and something that lights your way onward. Dorothy de Kok skims author bios with mild suspicion—aware they matter, but quietly convinced they are proof that even the greatest writers have writer's block when they have to write about themselves … and here we are. Her own storytelling journey began at twelve, when she attempted her first novel: an earnest and spectacularly terrible fan fiction of Enid Blyton's Magic Faraway Tree series. She finished it, reread it proudly, then lost it, which is just as well, as it was a threat to great literature. Since then, Dorothy has collected an unusually broad résumé: high school English teacher, academic editor, safe-house director, real estate agent, and hopeful but horrendous gardener. She has spent years listening to people's stories—students, clients, and survivors—and those voices sometimes find their way into her fiction. She now lives in the small Karoo village of Bedford, South Africa, where the power supply is erratic and the potholes are legislated, and where inspiration tends to wander in before the first morning screech of the hadeda. She is also, by her own admission, unofficially blacklisted from owning a library card in several provinces due to her unfortunate habit of becoming emotionally attached to borrowed books and “forgetting” to return them. “Thickly,” her Writers of the Future entry, explores what happens when the desire to be seen becomes literal—a body horror tale about enhancement, erasure, and the price of visibility in a world that demands women transform United Public Radio & UFO Paranormal Radio www.uprntalkradio.com

Sometimes the shows just make them selves. Today I sat down with Justin Master Distiller for ASW and lets just say Supper was served. We got into the nerdy weeds and a ASM rabbit hole. But I can say I won't soon forget this conversation. Hope you enjoy and Be Blessed. ASWdistillery.com Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3Patreon.com/offtopicwhiskeyhttps://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==The Way BackAs far as we know, the story of ASW Distillery begins in a number of places: Ireland. France. England.IrelandIn the 1700s, an Irish native we'll call Searlas Tompson tasted uisge beathe for the first time, a batch smuggled by the light of the moon to evade King George I's whiskey tax collectors. Whether it was the taste or the danger or both, Searlas could not shake whiskey from his mind or his palate (part of this may have been its 130 proof). The liquid's warmth powered him through the damp winter and slowed time during the summer, brightening each season in its own way.As rents climbed on the Isle of Eire, Searlas and his family sought out the fertile expanses of Pennsylvania, a region that soon became famous for its rye whiskey. Of all the gifts Searlas' children inherited, perhaps his taste for whiskey was the most appreciated.FranceYet the story of ASW Distillery begins, too, in France in the early 1700s, when a local we'll call Jacques Chastain had his first sip of brandy at the age of eleven, fresh from the alembic still on a cool Autumn morning - a morning of Marennes-Oleron oysters and fresh-baked bread. Brandy-making was one of the time-honored traditions of this area of southwest France, a trade once imported from The Netherlands and farther shores.From the first sip that cool morning before tending to the sheep, Jacques knew he'd found his calling: enjoying brandy. When he and his family later sailed for the French Huguenot coast of South Carolina, Jacques stowed his taste for brandy and brought it with him.EnglandThe final wrinkle in the story of how ASW Distillery came to be finds us on the shores of England in the 1600s, where a French Huguenot we'll call Justin Wingo landed in hopes of escaping religious persecution in France. Monsieur Wingo - whose surname in French means "wine maker" - set sail for Virginia a few years later. In Haralson County, Georgia, years later, the daughter of a well-known whiskey maker and hauler by the name of Buck Wingo married a Manglitz who'd descended from Saxon and Irish immigrants.Although prohibited by the families from discussing his whiskey-hauling history, Buck let just enough slip over the years to inspire a young Justin Manglitz to take up the trade.***The Newer DevelopmentsOver the years, Jacques', Searlas', and Justin's families all trickled towards the southern highlands like a pristine mountain creek flowing down the Appalachians, but their appreciation for spirituous elixirs remained steadfast.University of GeorgiaSuch appreciation found new life, when friends Jim Chasteen and Charlie Thompson (that's us) found we shared a common love for whiskey while at The University of Georgia.From Scotch and Irish whiskey, to bourbon and rye, we spent a great deal of time enjoying the company of friends while searching for clarity in aqua vitae. These experiences led us to what seemed the only logical next step - creating our own whiskey.From these modest beginnings, we created a recipe for a smooth-drinking and versatile whiskey that we came to call American Spirit Whiskey.Charlie+Stirring.jpgHappenstanceWe might have stopped here had we not - somewhat by chance - met Justin Manglitz, a University of Georgia graduate himself and a masterful, self-taught brewer.Around 1990, Justin's parents had moved from Haralson County to Athens, Georgia, eventually settling on land adjacent to Jim's folks. In high school, Justin's older sister became friends with Jim.

Je sais, ces derniers temps cette émission semble devenir une rubrique nécrologique … Mais les artistes laisse des traces dans nos vies même si on ne les connaissais pas intimement. Après un court clin d'œil à Nathalie Baye, je ne pouvais pas ne pas rendre hommage à Moya Brennan qui à défaut d'avoir été dans le courant purement progressif qui alimente ce programme hebdomadaire, m'aura marquée par sa voix, sa culture (j'ai un rapport personnel particulier avec la belle Eire) et sa capacité à mélanger les genres sans y perdre son identité. Comme beaucoup c'est bien sur à travers Clannad que j'ai connu cette voix unique. Et puis un jour de 2012, la vie m'a offert ce beau cadeau d'être accrédité pour photographier les coulisses et le spectacle Excalibur en lisière de la forêt de Brocéliande. Un spectacle écrit par l'auteur-compositeur et réalisateur ALAN SIMON qui venait alors de publier le 3ème opus de cette incroyable saga, réunissant, en plus de Moya, d'autres légendes, notamment les Fairport Convention, John Helliwell (Supertramp), Christian Décamps (Ange), Martin Barre (Jethro Tull), Jimme O'Neill (The Silencers), Jeremy Spencer (Fleetwood Mac), Pat O'May, Konan Mevel (Tri Yann) et bien d'autres… Alors je me suis replongé dans mes archives photo et mis en ligne les images de Moya (dont celle publiée par Alan dans le livret du DVD), elles sont accessibles ICI SUR FLICKR.  C'est donc avec MOYA BRENNAN que commence et se termine ce numéro, d'abord en live dans ce concert d'Excalibur à Brocéliande, puis en clôture d'émission au sein de CLANNAD avec un extrait de Fuaim en 1982, courte période durant laquelle sa sœur cadette Enya en était également membre avant de prendre son envol pur une carrière solo avec le succès international qu'on lui connait.    Entre ces deux titres et pour le reste de la programmation de belles nouvelles sorties à l'instar des italiens de KARMAMOI lesquels, si je sais encore compter, en sont déjà à leur 8ème album avec "Eternal Mistake". Un album concept qui interroge sur ce qu'est être un humain et d'ailleurs le groupe précise  que sa nouvelle production est garantie sans recours à l'IA. Rassurante mention mais qui en dit long sur l'évolution de l'Art...       Il y a quelques semaines, je vous présentais le nouvel album de LAZULI. Et comme il a un petit goût de reviensy, nouvel extrait dans ce numéro ! L'occasion aussi de rappeler que si le groupe se fait rare dans son propre pays (quelques dates tout de même dans des festivals cet été), il assurera toutes les premières parties françaises de la tournée de Marillon en fin d'année, qu'on se le redise ! Dans notre jolie région de l'Ouest, le lieu le plus proche sera "Le Mem" à Rennes le 18 novembre. Autre jolie région, le Val de Loire, ses châteaux et surtout dans l'orléanais : PLEDGE OF HEALING ! Conquis pas le premier album de cette formation fondée par Claire et Cyril que j'embrasse, ils ont eu l'amitié de me faire écouter depuis quelques maquettes en vue d'un nouveau projet. Mais je commençais à trouver le temps long, jusqu'à ce qu'enfin ce deuxième album soit sur les rails. Et comme nos amis sont indépendants et souhaitent le rester pour garder le contrôle artistique du projet, ce qui est tout à leur honneur, ils ont besoin de nous pour financer ce nouvel opus. Je vous encourage vivement à les aider, c'est ICI SUR HELLOASSOCIATION , faites moi confiance vos oreilles vous diront merci ! Piqûre de rappel du 1er album dans ce numéro, extrait de l'excellentissime "One Step Closer" en attendant  la suite avec impatience !   En 1978, GENESIS publie "... And Then There Were Three …".  Si beaucoup de fans opposent les périodes Gabriel / Collins, je serais plus nuancé; pour moi, le point de rupture se trouve ici. Steve Hackett s'en est allé vers une carrière solo, frustré de ne pas pouvoir pleinement s'exprimer artistiquement et si cet album porte encore une belle empreinte de rock progressif, le virage pop s'amorce et sera confirmé dès l'album suivant ("Duke") en 1980. La nouvelle décennie va ouvrir les stades à Bank, Rutherford et Collins pour un plus large public bien éloigné du rock progressif, même si le trio laissera quelques pépites dans leurs productions futures, ce sera un autre chapitre que personnellement je ne rejette pas mais qui est effectivement à considérer différemment …  Mais à quand remonte le rock progressif ? Je n'ai pas la prétention d'apporter une réponse, même s'il est admis par beaucoup que l'acte de naissance de ce courant serait le premier album de King Crimson en 1969. Alors dans la "préhistoire" du genre on trouve quand même des traces notamment dans les délires psychédéliques des Beatles ou de Pink Floyd mais aussi en 1968 avec un certain Keith Emerson, l'une des futures icônes du prog avec Emerson, Lake & Palmer bien sur. Mais n'oublions pas qu'avant cela, il y a eu "THE NICE" formation crée initialement par Keith pour accompagner la chanteuse soul P.P. Arnold avant de prendre son indépendance et sortir par exemple "Ars Longa Vita Bretis" en 1968 où tous les ingrédients sont déjà en place :  croisement du jazz, du classique et du rock psychédélique. Extrait dans notre épisode.      Quelle joie de découvrir enfin un nouvel album de FAR FROM YOUR SUN, formation parisienne qui a fait les belles soirées d'Amarok il y a 4 ou 5 ans mais qui était passé sous les radars depuis. l'album "A Dream Of Hell" est donc une très belle et bonne surprise, la preuve en son avec un premier (mais pas le dernier ! ) extrait dans ce numéro !  Autre galette bien fraîche, celle des anglais THE PARADOX TWIN, enfin digitale la galette car l'album ne sortira dans sa version physique que le 8 mai. 3ème album dont on doit la conception au talentueux Danny Sorel qui comble du luxe, a fait mixer et masteriser ce disque par un éminent membre d'Arena, j'ai nommé John Mitchell. Ce dernier à même taquiné la basse et offert un solo de guitare électrique d'anthologie … Mais que serait le rock progressif aujourd'hui sans son déploiement dans les 70's ? Par exemple KANSAS a durablement maqué les esprits avec "Point Of Know Return" en 1977 et même, chose peu courante dans ce milieu, fait un carton populaire avec "Dust In The Wind". Mais c'est un autre extrait de ce grand album qui vous était proposé dans ce numéro. Il y a un an rappelez-vous j'avais été stupéfait par le talent du français ANDRE FERNANDEZ et son album fort réussi "In The English Way" paru en 2023 mais que venais seulement de découvrir. Mes oreilles avaient été marquées notamment par l'extrait épique "In My English Way", véritable hommage à ces artistes du Royaume de Charles qui font notre bonheur depuis parfois de fort longues années ! Je vous invite d'ailleurs à réécouter sur cette plateforme l'émission hors-série du 15 mai 2025 pour laquelle j'avais exceptionnellement confié le micro à Ella qui présentait ce programme en VO, in her english way ! Retour sur cet album avec une autre très belle pépite !  Thierry Joigny AMAROK, chaque jeudi, à 20h

The Authors Quill todays guest or winners of The L Ron Hubbard writers and illustrators of the Future contest guest Josie Moore Roddy Taylor Karah Richardson Tracy Eire Josie Moore grew up in the valley town of Westfield, Massachusetts with a voice that wouldn't work and a brain filled to bursting. Paranoid by the world and abandoned by those around her, she turned to art in her time of hiding. When she was scared, she wrote about it. When she cried, she drew comforting pictures. With the inability to pinpoint and process her own emotions, she used art and storytelling as her communication, turning her fear into something beautiful. Nowadays, she can finally leave her bedroom, but never without a sketchbook by her side. She attends the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in hopes of getting her BFA in Illustration. She spends her days doodling elves, bears, and silly little faeries and nights writing, planning, and…hopefully writing some more. Finally having an outlet to put all her obsessive, creative energy, she dreams of one day showing even the deepest crevices of her mind with her odd love stories and twisted mysteries. Roddy Taylor is a former high school science teacher, who decided to become a full-time artist and illustrator. He and his wife moved to Ellensburg six years ago after his son was born and fell in love with the place. Since deciding to go full-time with his art, he has developed his previous love for mythology, nature, and fantasy themes. His most recent accolades involve winning Best of Show at the Kittitas County Fair twice. His work has shown often at Gallery One in Ellensburg, including a solo show in the Fall of 2024. It was a fairly short wordcount bio. Find out more about Roddy at,… RoddyTaylorArt.com Karah Richardson was born in 2007, spending much of her childhood moving to and exploring new states across America. She met a variety of people though having prosopagnosia (face blindness) made recognizing them a challenge. Karah loves challenges. Growing up, she had a fascination with studying faces, assuming that she could “learn” how to memorize family and friends by drawing them over and over. This led to a lifelong love of art. She'd blend together a wide variety of separate features and piece them together like a puzzle, relying on others to tell her if it looks “correct.” Due to such an early start on such a potent hobby in her life, she quickly discovered many teachers, family, and friends wanted to encourage her to cultivate this study into a real-life Tracy Eire grew up far to the north in a place called Newfoundland.

Dr. Carlos Eire and Dr. Kirsten Macfarlane on October 29, 2025 at the University of Chicago's Swift Hall. Levitation. Bilocation. Witchcraft. Demonic Possession. Europe in the early modern era was simultaneously the site of Kepler, Newton, Copernicus–and of eyewitness accounts of levitating saints and nocturnal witches' sabbats. In his history of the impossible, award-winning historian Carlos Eire mines the firsthand accounts and archival evidence of the miraculous and demonic. How did an increasingly skeptical and scientific culture account for events deemed impossible by its leading intellectuals? What does this say about the supposed boundaries between the natural and supernatural that marked the transition to modernity? In this lecture, Carlos Eire explores the major themes of "They Flew" and asks: what makes something impossible? And is there more to reality than meets the eye? University of Chicago Divinity School professor Kirsten Macfarlane offers a response and engages Eire in a conversation. --- This project was made possible through the support of In Lumine Tuo: Expanding and Sustaining the Catholic Intellectual Tradition Nationwide (grant #63614) from the John Templeton Foundation and the generous support of the University of Chicago Divinity School and the Workshop on the Early Modern World.

Eire discusses the painful separation from his family, the challenges of assimilation, and the lifelong tension between his Cuban and American identities, themes he explores in his acclaimed memoirs Waiting for Snow in Havana and Learning to Die in Miami. The conversation also delves into Eire's recent book They Flew: A History of the Impossible, which examines early modern testimonies of levitation, bilocation, and miracles, and how belief, culture, and skepticism shaped their reception. Eire also reflects on Cuban history, the failures of the Castro regime, the broader Hispanic experience in America, and the enduring clash between materialist skepticism and openness to mystery.
