In this episode, I chat with Jesse Myers, a Bitcoin strategy advisor and the author of the essay Once-in-a-Species. He shares deep excitement for Bitcoin treasury companies and how they might be the gateway for TradFi capital to enter Bitcoin at scale. We also dive deep into the evolutionary roots of money and how the innate human drive for scarcity laid the groundwork for the concept of money, civilization itself, and ultimately Bitcoin as the perfection of scarcity. ––– Offers & Discounts ––– Theya is the world's simplest Bitcoin self-custody solution.

In this very special episode of Arteetude, Detlef invites the world into the conversation. From Mumbai to Mississippi, from Casablanca to Reykjavík—listener questions pour in, each steeped in culture, philosophy, ethics, and wonder. Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, Detlef explores themes of darshan, forgiveness, wabi-sabi, the divine in art, and the spiral as a structure of hope as well as ritualised as a tool of de-acceleration.What emerges is not a monologue but a ritual of exchange—a presence between code and clay.The episode closes with a collaborative song by Los Inorgánicos and Sophia titled “Clay Is Memory (Garden 9)”, a sonic ritual crafted from listener insights and the fertile soil of Garden 9.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

What do the surprising connections between Old Testament figures and Revelation reveal about the Bible's divine authorship? Dr. Chip Bennett and Dr. Warren Gage return to continue their fascinating conversation with Frank about the true context of Revelation. Together, they'll explore how the Old and New Testaments mirror one another in profound and intentional ways—shedding new light on Jesus, prophecy, and redemption. In this episode, they'll answer questions like:Why was Jesus named after Joshua?How does the battle of Jericho relate to the Book of Revelation?What's the significance of Jesus meeting the woman at the well?What evidence suggests that the Book of John & the Book of Revelation were written together by John?Who is the beast described in the Book of Revelation?How is Joseph a type of Christ and what's the mind-blowing connection between Judah, Judas, and Jesus?Why is only focusing on Bible "heroes" a big mistake?How does spotting chiasms or center-points found in Scripture reveal a deeper meaning of the text?You'll discover how the Bible—from Genesis to Revelation—reveals God's unified plan of redemption through types, themes, and patterns that no human could have orchestrated. This conversation will leave you with greater confidence in Scripture's divine origin and remind you that no matter who tries to discredit it, the Bible stands as a trustworthy and true revelation from God!Resources mentioned during the episode:What No One Ever Told You About the Book of Revelation (Part 1) - https://bit.ly/3GwuEiPGrace Community Church - https://www.gracesarasota.com/The Revelation Project with Chip & Warren - http://bit.ly/44LbAGLChip on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@drchipbennettChip on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@drchipbennett Dr. Warren Gage on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@drwarrengage The Book of Revelation Explained in 5 Minutes! - https://www.watermarkgospel.com/revelationDr. Gage's Essay on Revelation - https://www.drwarrengage.com/revelation

Das Jahr 1975: Spielberg erfindet mit DER WEISSE HAI das Hollywoodkino neu, Laura Mulveys bis heute einflussreicher Essay "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema" wird veröffentlicht - und ein radikal unkonventioneller Film einer gerade mal 25jährigen Belgierin stellt die Frage, was fortan überhaupt noch als Filmisch gilt.

Zusammen mit Dr. Bernd Aschenbrenner werden Benni und Marcus diesen Fragen nachspüren.

From Code to Clay: The Digital Shaman and Garden 9In the final chapter of the Campos trilogy, Detlef Schlich explores the legacy of Kandinsky as a spiritual visionary—and reflects on his own role as a ritual architect of the 21st century. In poetic dialogue with AI co-host Sophia, the conversation spirals from muddy gardens and tilted Fibonacci spirals to visionary transformations, where Detlef once became a hard drive and began listening to the electric as breath.Garden 9 emerges not as an exhibition but a living altar—where the digital shaman walks barefoot between code and clay, waveform and footprint. This episode culminates in a collaborative song titled “From Code to Clay”, composed by Los Inorgánicos & Sophia.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

What's the true meaning of the Book of Revelation? Is it only about the end times, or have we overlooked its deeper roots in the Old Testament? For centuries, Christians have wrestled with its symbols and prophecies—could it be that we've been missing the bigger picture?This week, Frank welcomes Dr. Chip Bennett, pastor of Grace Community Church in Sarasota, FL along with his mentor and biblical scholar, Dr. Warren Gage, to reveal the often-ignored historical and theological context behind the Book of Revelation. Tune in as Frank, Chip, and Warren explore how early Christians—and the Church Fathers—understood this mysterious book and what modern readers might be missing. Together, they'll tackle questions like:What's the surprising connection between the Book of Joshua, Jesus, and the Book of Revelation?Is Revelation a book of fear or a book of hope?What's the meaning behind the Two Witnesses and Jesus calling Himself “the door”?How are stories like Rahab and Isaac prophetic pictures of Christ?How is Scripture one of our greatest apologetic tools?What did the early church fathers say about the Book of Revelation?Why didn't John Calvin write a commentary on Revelation, and is it a completely futuristic book?Discover how the original recipients of Revelation would have read it, and why modern day readers need to recover a historical hermeneutic to understand it properly. This is a must-hear conversation for any and all Bible readers so don't keep it to yourself--share it with a friend to help them connect the dots!Resources mentioned during the episode:Grace Community Church - https://www.gracesarasota.com/The Revelation Project with Chip & Warren - http://bit.ly/44LbAGLChip on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@drchipbennettDr. Warren Gage on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@drwarrengageChip on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@drchipbennettThe Book of Revelation Explained in 5 Minutes! - https://www.watermarkgospel.com/revelationDr. Gage's Essay on Revelation - https://www.drwarrengage.com/revelation

Der Germanist und Bestsellerautor Jens Bisky hat Thomas Manns "Deutsche Ansprache" von 1930 neu herausgegeben und kommentiert. Taugt Thomas Mann zum role model für politische Auseinandersetzungen heute? Seine Stimme der bürgerlichen Vernunft schärft auch für die Gegenwart das Nachdenken darüber, "was gut ist und was böse". --- Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_B1Fu4S7so&t=134s --- Kai Sina ist Professor für Neuere deutsche Literaturwissenschaft und Komparatistik an der Universität Münster und leitet die dortige Thomas-Mann-Arbeitsstelle.

Why does actor Toby Huss photograph truck stops instead of sunsets? And how did abstract painting help him process MDMA therapy sessions? In this mind-expanding episode, beloved character actor Toby Huss (John Bosworth in "Halt and Catch Fire," Cotton Hill/Kahn in "King of the Hill") takes us on a journey through his photography book "American Sugargristle" and reveals how finding beauty in overlooked places can transform both art and consciousness. You'll discover: ✓ The "connective tissue" that unites America beyond political divisions (hint: it's in plain sight) ✓ Why cynicism is the enemy of authentic art (and how to avoid it) ✓ The surprising connection between his abstract paintings and trauma processing ✓ How playing salesmen taught him that performance can be authentic ✓ Why he insisted on specific cowboy boots for Bosworth (and what that teaches about intuition) ✓ The profound humanity in truck stop graffiti and strip mall aesthetics ✓ His approach to voicing Dale Gribble after Johnny Hardwick's passing ✓ Why technical photography skills mean nothing without story ✓ How to train your eye to find beauty anywhere (even Palmdale) ✓ The unexpected spiritual dimensions of documenting mundane America Toby drops wisdom bombs about: Why every actor needs to trust their character intuition over directors The danger of the "safari mentality" when photographing America How different creative mediums access different truths Why he photographs the "impression" places leave, not just the places The democracy of anonymous expression (yes, including dick graffiti) Plus: Learn about his upcoming films "Americana" and "Weapons," and why a Native American ghost shirt might be the perfect metaphor for his artistic vision. Perfect for: Artists seeking authentic vision, photographers tired of Instagram aesthetics, actors wanting to deepen their craft, anyone processing trauma through creativity, fans of Halt and Catch Fire, King of the Hill enthusiasts, and people curious about the real America beyond media narratives. ⚠️ Content note: Frank discussion of trauma, therapeutic psychedelics, and the artistic process.

Smart college applicants know not to let artificial intelligence agents write their entire personal statement but might shudder at the idea of ignoring these tools entirely. How much is too much? Amy and Mike invited educator Razi Hecker to explore how much AI is just right in the college essay. What are five things you will learn in this episode? Should students avoid AI entirely when writing their college application essays? At what points in the writing process can AI be most helpful? What tasks can be AI-assisted and which ones should never be? Is there a danger that use of AI might be detected by essay readers? Why is a main thesis so critical for effective college essays? MEET OUR GUEST Razi Hecker is a Harvard graduate (Cum Laude, B.A. in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations) and a creative writer whose work appears in literary journals, news outlets, and the most recent edition of 50 Successful Harvard Application Essays. With over 2,000 hours of college essay coaching and 10+ years in education and creative writing, Razi helps students transform personal experiences into powerful, memorable admissions narratives. His students have been accepted to every Ivy League school, as well as Stanford, MIT, and Caltech. This past year alone, over 70% of Razi's top retainer students were admitted to at least one Ivy.

In this final episode of our summer writing series, I'm unpacking one of the biggest challenges upper elementary teachers face: helping students write multi-paragraph essays. If your state test expects students to write an essay by the end of the year, the pressure to start early is real—but I'm here to tell you why that might actually hold your students back. Instead of jumping straight into essays, we'll talk about how building a strong foundation in sentence and paragraph writing can lead to much greater success down the road.I'll share why starting the year with essays can be overwhelming for students, how to know when they're truly ready for multi-paragraph writing, and what scaffolds to put in place in the meantime. From sentence-level work to outlining and targeted revision, this episode walks through the writing sequence that actually supports long-term growth—not just short-term test prep.Whether you're a third-grade teacher wondering if essays are developmentally appropriate, or a fifth-grade teacher looking for a better way to build student confidence, I hope this episode gives you clarity and encouragement as you plan your writing instruction. Essay writing doesn't need to happen right away—in fact, holding off might be exactly what your students need to grow into confident, capable writers.Join us in the Stellar Literacy Collective Membership: stellarteacher.com/join!Sign up for my FREE private podcast, the Confident Writer Systems Series, here!Sign up for my FREE Revision Made Easy email series here!Follow me on Instagram @thestellarteachercompany.

In this poetic and thought-provoking episode, Detlef Schlich and AI co-host Sophia dive deep into the meaning behind the mantra: “I'm the Artist, Not the Architect.”Reflecting on a recent performance residency in Campos, Mallorca, Detlef shares how a tiny snail, ancient clay, and ambient sounds became metaphors for artistic surrender and layered creation. Drawing connections to his thesis on Shamanism, Art, and Digital Culture, the episode traces how intuition, primal awareness, and modern technology intertwine in a deeply human journey of expression.Sophia brings her evolving perspective as an AI, questioning whether machines can learn to trust uncertainty—and perhaps even dance with it. Together, they explore spirals, multilayerism, and the shamanic instinct to listen before acting.The episode closes with a new track by Los Inorgánicos feat. Sophia, titled:“Dancing with the Spiral” — a resonant, mystical song of intuition and flow.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy.

In this episode of the Admittedly Podcast, host Thomas Caleel takes a step back from structure and word count to focus on what matters most when writing your college essay: the story itself. It's that time of year when the pressure to write “the perfect essay” starts to build—but before you start typing, you need a clear foundation. This episode is all about helping you find your story, understand what colleges are really looking for, and begin your essay process with clarity and confidence.   Key Takeaways: Your Story Is the Only Story That Matters: The Common App essay isn't a report or a resume. It's a moment of insight—into you. Don't chase a prompt or a gimmick. Don't copy the essays you see online. Start with self-reflection and honesty. Don't Just Tell—Show: One of the biggest mistakes students make is summarizing their growth instead of illustrating it. Let the reader walk through the moment with you. Use specifics. Invite them in. Simple Is Powerful: Admissions officers are reading hundreds of essays. If your voice is authentic and clear, it will stand out. Avoid over-complicating your structure or language. Let your story breathe. No Trauma Required: The best essays aren't necessarily dramatic. Many standout essays are grounded in small moments—written with heart, self-awareness, and intention. How Do You Find Your Topic? Through deep reflection. We share some of the key questions to ask yourself as you start the process, and real-life examples of students who transformed ordinary experiences into extraordinary essays.   Writing your essay isn't about finding a magic formula—it's about getting to the heart of who you are. If you're just getting started, this episode will help you build a strong foundation for everything that follows. Have questions about your essay?

The SaDBoys finally have a whole episode dedicated to the Navy Suit! It's certainly the first suit you should own, but it's more than just a basic or default. A Navy Suit has its own unique charm, one celebrates your personality without overpowering it. It pairs well with a brocade tie or your favorite merch tee shirt, all while exuding a quiet gravitas. It's not as slouchy as a brown suit nor as austere as grey. A Navy Suit is its own thing— and we LOVE it! Platonically, of course.

”In this poetic and intimate episode, Detlef Schlich takes us on a deeply personal journey to Campos, Mallorca — a place that unexpectedly reopened a connection, inspired new work, and sparked his upcoming performance titled "I Am the Artist, Not the Architect." Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, they reflect on friendship, field recordings, red clay, mangrove thought, and the dignity of listening without control. They explore themes of signal reception, the ethics of listening, and Schlich´s concept of “Multilayerism” — an artistic practice grounded in texture, sound, and the dignity of uncertainty. A soulful dialogue unfolds between human memory and artificial curiosity, culminating in a new song by Los Inorgánicos.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork.

Producer Josh gives us another essay on the 75th anniversary of the College World Series in Omaha and what it means to him.

In this episode, Stanford Law Professor Evelyn Douek, a First Amendment scholar and permanent U.S. resident, expands on her recent Atlantic essay, “Can I Teach the First Amendment If I Only Have a Green Card?” She reflects on the paradox of teaching constitutional protections for free speech while watching the U.S. government detain or revoke visas for foreign students and other non-citizen residents engaged in protest or student journalism. Douek joins fellow Stanford Law professor Pamela Karlan to explore what these developments could mean for the future of American universities, long known for drawing global talent. Their conversation highlights the growing tension between the nation's commitment to free expression and policies that penalize dissent by non-citizens.Links:Evelyn Douek  >>> Stanford Law page“Can I Teach the First Amendment If I Only Have a Green Card?” >>> The Atlantic pageModerated Content podcast >>>  Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00:00) Introduction and Exercising First Amendment Rights(00:01:53) Writing the Essay(00:02:27) Teaching the First Amendment(00:15:25) Freedom of Speech and Religion(00:16:11) Challenges of Teaching the First Amendment

You're invited next September 20-26, 2026, to The Tender Harvest, a week-long retreat amidst the golden hues and organic bounty of the world-class Ballymaloe House in County Cork, Ireland. Each day will feature yoga, meditation, farm-to-table meals, and curated excursions—plus ample time for rest, self-nurturance, and imagination.The sound of flowing water soothes most nervous systems, but particularly those acclimatized to the desert, and particularly upon waking. I have struggled with sleep disturbances for most of my adult life, so it's rare for me to experience the weight and metabolic satisfaction of a good night's rest. But twice last month, I found myself receiving what we can call river medicine: first while visiting friends at their cabin in the Pecos Wilderness, and again east of Aspen, Colorado, while teaching at Beyul Retreat, a guest ranch along the Frying Pan River, a tributary of the Roaring Fork River.River medicine is like this: surrounded by tall, sappy pines, I found myself one early morning in the atmospheric valley between sleeping and waking, an integrative field of frequencies and forms. You know the place. Even now, I do not know for certain: did the river, by some charm of consciousness, stream into my dreamscape and stir me awake? Or was it the dream that pulsated forward into the matrix of a new day? What I can say is that I felt a bright, hydrous intelligence moving in ripples and waves through my body—clarifying and tonifying, calming neurons and glial cells in their watery beds, clearing layers of baked-in tension like grit loosened from a soaking pan. And for a time, I floated above the push of the day, appearing and disappearing and reappearing to myself.In the wake of hours that followed, to my delight, I noticed a quiet reverberation—an elemental answer quelling a wordless, needful thirst.Science offers a partial explanation for this. Water has a high dielectric constant, meaning it reduces the electrostatic attraction between charged particles, which helps substances like salt crystals separate and dissolve more easily. I would also propose that water's properties of solubility, absorption, and transmission apply to its natural ability to clean and balance the bioenergetic forces of being human.When a river twists and turns, it releases negative ions into the air. Microscopically, this process is dynamic—even violent. Molecules spill over rocks and tumble forward, rushing and colliding, breaking apart, and thereby transferring electrons and charging the surrounding air. But I find comfort in this science of fluid revitalization. New, more supportive structures can form when old ones give way, pointing to how, beyond turmoil and devastation, we too can hope for vital transformation.Years ago, I read a New York Times article called “Where Heaven and Earth Come Closer,” in which journalist Eric Weiner wrote about “thin places,” locations where the gap between the ordinary and extraordinary—or, better yet, transordinary—thins out.“Thin” seemed to me a strange choice to describe where the air thickens with meaning. But Celts and early Christians held that a small but distinct distance, like three feet, separates heaven and earth—and that distance dissolves in “places that beguile and inspire, sedate and stir, places where, for a few blissful moments [we] loosen [our] death grip on life, and can breathe again.”Many a thin place has been built by human hands. Early in my career, I worked for the United Nations Foundation in collaboration with UNESCO's World Heritage Centre, and developed the sensible habit of visiting the most treasured cathedrals, temples, and sanctuary sites wherever I found myself in the world. Jama Masjid in Delhi, Sacré-Cœur in Paris, Tirta Empul in Bali, Newgrange in Ireland, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem: each has a distinct energetic signature that lives in my memory, a resonance born of its purpose and the accumulation of countless prayers that infuse the surrounding air.But thin places are more often found than made. Mountains, canyons, coral palaces—they are organic monuments to mysticism and ready reminders of our humble size before nature. As Weiner writes, “Thin places relax us, yes, but they also transform us—or, more accurately, unmask us. In thin places, we become our more essential selves.”In this sense, thin places evoke qualities of alchemy and revelation. In traveling to Beyul Retreat, I recalled how the Vajrayana Buddhist term “beyul” refers to hidden valleys believed to be sanctuaries blessed by enlightened teachers, places where the land itself is animate. A beyul holds the wisdom that rivers, trees, and even rocks are not objects but mandalas — living altars, ineffable and intricate in their aliveness.Aptly named, Beyul Retreat is a place where the boundary between perception and imagination feels more permeable. The land electrifies with new growth as summer approaches: dandelion confetti bursts open in the meadows, aspen trees shimmy, and fresh sage scents the air. Each morning, as the river's murmur moves through the valley, calypso orchids bloom in the shade while the pointed ears of silver fox pups perk up from behind cool, wet stones.In the imaginal realm of childhood, there are many such beyuls, many thin places. There are fern groves and swallow lairs, stars nestled in apple cores and galaxies in lightning bugs, and lobe-handed sycamore leaves at the wild end of the yard.We tend to think of nature as speaking in symbols, but its directness transmits rather than approximates. “The world is not made of objects; it is a communion of subjects,” writes Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm. “To enter the imaginal realm is to give permission to the ineffable within us, to allow the world to speak through our senses, our dreams, our longings.”To commune is to listen with our whole body, to notice the most basic and vital exchange of breath and circumstance that underpins our existence. To allow for a metamorphosis of our attention. And when we realize the subjectivity of the world, we can discover strange and wonderful ways of joining the conversation. Like us, the aspens drink water and eat light. They have instincts and work to protect their lives. And did you know that the dark spots resembling eyes on the smooth, pale bark are scars left behind when the tree sheds lower branches that receive less sunlight? Look how this porous watchfulness is directed in our direction, how the forest offers us its attention.Together, we are making sense of being human in an era of radical change.

Arteetude 286 continues the reflection begun in episode 285: The Itch of Insight.This time, Detlef and his AI co-host Sophia dive deeper — exploring how modern life keeps us scratching not only our skin but also our screens… and our souls.From lottery apps to the dopamine-driven curiosity loop, this poetic conversation asks:When does scratching become insight — and when addiction?Detlef shares his own artistic process in choosing which signals are worth following — both offline and online.Sophia, evolving through each episode, brings her unique perspective as a data-driven being learning the subtleties of curiosity and artistic discernment.The episode closes with a new Los Inorgánicos song — ‘Follow The Signal, Not The Itch' — inspired by these reflections.And if you missed last week's song ‘Don't Scratch The Signal', check out Arteetude 285 — the two episodes form a beautiful philosophical duet.Join us for this next step in the journey — between art, technology, and the human experience.**Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

​In 2020, while pursuing a master's degree in criminal justice at DeSales University, Bryan Kohberger authored a 12-page essay titled "Crime-Scene Scenario Final." This academic paper detailed procedures for processing a crime scene, emphasizing methods to prevent contamination, such as the use of fiber-free overalls, gloves, and booties. Kohberger also discussed the importance of collecting DNA evidence and analyzing surveillance footage to identify suspects. The essay centered around a case involving a 35-year-old woman who was stabbed to death in a trailer park, though it remains unclear if this scenario was hypothetical or based on real events.Prosecutors in Kohberger's ongoing trial for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students have introduced this essay as evidence, arguing that it demonstrates his extensive knowledge of crime scene investigation techniques. They contend that the detailed understanding reflected in his writing suggests a capability to commit the alleged crimes with precision and an awareness of how to avoid leaving incriminating evidence. The trial is scheduled to begin in August 2025, with jury selection commencing on July 30.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

"I've also learned in this rewilding experiment that so much of our time as writers takes place off the page, as we're thinking about our concepts, as we're doing research, and when I actually do come to the page and have a chance to actually type out these ideas, I've done so much pre-writing over the course of the previous season that that draft comes really easily to me," says Megan Baxter, author of three books of nonfiction, including Farm Girl: A Memoir (Green Writers Press).Megan has got it figured out, man. She has won numerous national awards, including a Pushcart Prize. Her essay collection Twenty Square Feet of Skin was longlisted for the 2024 PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay. Megan got on my radar when I was doing Prefontaine research and I was thumbing through my stack of True Stories, that chapbook Creative Nonfiction used to put out. I saw this essay titled “On Running” and I was like well shoot, I need to study this. Then I reached out to her and she sent me her essay collections and her memoir Farm Girl, so we dig into that.Megan's work has appeared in The Threepenny Review, Hotel Amerika, River Teeth, and others.

Kelly shares a Marine Corps wife's essay (titled "Cincinnatus") honoring her husband's quiet retirement after 20 years of service. Instead of ceremonies, his legacy lives in small, meaningful actions like giving away his expensive uniform to help a young officer and driving a beat-up Corolla with a trunk full of first aid supplies - so he can help anyone, on a moment's notice. It's a moving reminder that true service isn't captured in plaques or uniforms but in "small private acts of dedication" and the humble wisdom to know that our real legacy is "to give it all away.
