658. Part 2 of our conversation with Scott Tilton. Scott is the Co-Founder and Director of the Nous Foundation, a platform for exchange between Louisiana and the French-speaking world. He lived the past several years in Paris where he worked as a consultant at Ernst & Young France on projects for the European Union, the UN, and the French Government. While in Paris, Scott launched and spearheaded an initiative that saw Louisiana become the first U.S. state to join the International Organization of the Francophonie (La Francophonie). Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 221 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. George Washington Cable. “Café des Exiles.” An antiquated story-and-a-half Creole cottage sitting right down on the banquette, as do the Choctaw squaws who sell bay and sassafras and life-everlasting, with a high, close board-fence shutting out of view the diminutive garden on the southern side. An ancient willow droops over the roof of round tiles, and partly hides the discolored stucco, which keeps dropping off into the garden as though the old café was stripping for the plunge into oblivion — disrobing for its execution. I see, well up in the angle of the broad side gable, shaded by its rude awning of clapboards, as the eyes of an old dame are shaded by her wrinkled hand, the window of Pauline. Oh for the image of the maiden, were it but for one moment, leaning out of the casement to hang her mocking-bird and looking down into the garden, — where, above the barrier of old boards, I see the top of the fig-tree, the pale green clump of bananas, the tall palmetto with its jagged crown, Pauline's own two orange-trees holding up their hands toward the window, heavy with the promises of autumn; the broad, crimson mass of the many-stemmed oleander, and the crisp boughs of the pomegranate loaded with freckled apples, and with here and there a lingering scarlet blossom. This week in Louisiana history. December 27, 1814. Jackson's men repell a British reconnaissance force near Rodriguez Canal. This week in New Orleans history. Jean Étienne de Boré (December 27, 1741 – February 1, 1820) was the first Mayor of New Orleans. His wife, Marie Marguerite d'Estrehan, came from one of the most prominent families of colonial Louisiana; her father, Jean Baptiste d'Estrehan, was the Royal Treasurer of French Louisiana. Etienne owned a plantation a few miles above the City of New Orleans. There he had originally cultivated indigo. But when this product lost its market as a result of competition from Guatemala, he turned his attention to the manufacture of sugar. On his estate he set up a sugar mill and there, in 1795, had, with the aid of two Cubans, Mendez and Lopez, succeeded in producing the first granulated sugar ever known in the colony, with the result that agriculture was completely revolutionized. He was appointed mayor by Governor William C. C. Claiborne in 1803; he resigned to look after his personal affairs the following year. He died at around 80 years old, and is buried in New Orleans' Saint Louis Cemetery No. 1. One of his daughters was the mother of Louisiana historian Charles Gayarré. This week in Louisiana.

Join us for this year's Christmas investigative episode as we sit down with R.L. Solberg to examine one of the most persistent and controversial claims surrounding the holiday: Is Christmas truly rooted in paganism, or is that narrative built on selective history and modern mythmaking? In an age where viral videos and sensational headlines confidently declare Christmas to be nothing more than a repackaged pagan festival, we slow the conversation down and follow the evidence. Together, we trace the historical claims back to their original sources, evaluate what the early church actually believed and practiced, and expose where popular talking points often rely more on assumption than documented fact. But this conversation doesn't stop at history alone. We also confront the modern tension many believers feel each December—caught between sincere faith and an overwhelming culture of excess, marketing, and consumerism. Is there a meaningful way to celebrate Christmas that resists commercialization while remaining grounded in Christian conviction? This episode isn't about defending tradition for tradition's sake—it's about truth. If you've ever questioned the origins of Christmas, felt conflicted about how it's celebrated today, or wanted a historically informed, biblically grounded perspective, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Tune in and discover what the evidence really says. P.S. Please consider partnering with us as we head into the new year. https://donorbox.org/cultish

In keeping with the tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, we offer you this expertly crafted submission from our sister podcast Haunted UK Fiction... Find this and over two dozen more stories on Haunted UK Fiction: https://linktr.ee/hauntedukfictionMy father was in a strange mood that day. He welcomed me with genuine warmth and appeared, to me at least, quite comfortable and content in his soft armchair and his cup perched delicately on the left knee. His words, however, were of the most serious sort; he betrayed no emotion by stating the facts clearly and with a certain stiff formality. I was informed that he had something very important to tell… Hello and welcome, dear listeners, to Haunted UK Fiction – a sister podcast to The Haunted UK which features original flash fiction, short stories, and novellas with paranormal themes. All stories you will hear were written by a collection of talented writers, authors, and storytellers, both independent and professional.In today's episode we'll be reading The Overcoat, an eerie, spine-tingling tale which was sent in to us by LD Brown. LD Brown lives in the village of Hawkshead, Cumbria with his wife and too many cats. They own a beer shop together. For the past seven years, he has been running Ghost Walks in the village under the name: Tallow Tales; The Hawkshead Ghost Walk. Twice weekly he takes visitors around the village, regaling them with stories of local folklore. This also gives him the opportunity to wear a top hat. In his free time, LD writes horror stories and has been fortunate enough to get a few published here and there. His fiction is influenced by the bleaker side of the Lake District landscape; rainy, dripping woodlands, mosses, tarns, wetlands and their sinister ilk. His literary influences include Arthur Machen, MR James, EF Benson, JH Riddel and Algernon Blackwood. He also enjoys Folk Horror films and Peter Cushing.We truly hope you enjoy this unsettling, atmospheric tale that is reminiscent of times gone by.

A bead of sweat careered down the dome of his forehead like a wet cockroach.  Slapping his head and rubbing frenziedly, he squeezed his eyes tight shut and groaned quietly.  What to do? What to do?  When he re-opened his bleary eyes, his heart lurched.  In wiping the sweat from his brow, he must have caught the curtains, and they had parted more widely.  A good six or seven inches.  Blinking his vision back into focus, he saw the dark invaders stop dead where they were; a tableau from some obscene pantomime.Hello and welcome, dear listeners, to Haunted UK Fiction – a sister podcast to The Haunted UK which features original flash fiction, short stories, and novellas with paranormal themes.

In this episode, we welcome David Davies, author of the acclaimed Matthew Quinton Journals, for an in-depth conversation about his Restoration-era naval hero and the richly layered world he sails through, one of the most fascinating and volatile eras in maritime history.Davies explores the major themes at the heart of Matthew Quinton's adventures: a young gentleman thrust into command before he's ready; the fragile, treacherous world of Restoration politics; the tension between new scientific thinking and old superstitions; and the clash of class, privilege, and professional seamanship aboard a 17th-century man-of-war. From sea monsters and omens that sailors once believed in, to the early sparks of the Enlightenment reshaping navigation and natural philosophy, the series captures a navy and a nation on the brink of modernity.We also dive into the challenges of writing naval fiction set in this extraordinary period: reconstructing a navy still reeling from civil war, capturing the chaos of early naval tactics, balancing historical accuracy with narrative pace, and bringing to life a world where honour and loyalty is never what it seems.

Today we're tying up some loose ends by discussing Smoke & Fiction, the final album by legendary punk band X. We originally covered the band's whole discography back in 2019, so when X reunited to release Alphabetland in 2020, it completely caught us off-guard. Smoke & Fiction is more of the same, which in this case is a bit disappointing. It's great to have an official send off to such a great band, but this one isn't doing it for us.   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Patreon https://www.patreon.com/everyalbumever   Merch https://pandermonkey.creator-spring.com/   Mike's EP: Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple,   Mike on Instagram @pandermonkey Alex on Bluesky @octatron3030 Tom on Instagram @tomosmansounds   History Tom's stuff: Music on Spotify, Apple Podcast on Spotify, YouTube Substack Website   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comedian, actor and improviser Rachel Parris discusses why people can be so wrong about Jane Austen, the knotty complexities of female friendship and her love for crime fiction.  Rachel is officially a member of the British comedy elite – she has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You, and Mock the Week, and was BAFTA-nominated for her satirical sketches on BBC's The Mash Report, which have garnered over 100 million views online.

On the stage, she is a co-founder of Austentatious – a Jane Austen themed improv comedy show in the West End.  Her debut novel, Introducing Mrs Collins, is a tale of love, loss, and second chances, for anyone who's wondered if there's more to the sensible character we met in Pride and Prejudice. Rachel's book choices are:  **Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver **Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen **The Names by Florence Knapp **My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante **The Lost by Claire McGowan Vick Hope, multi-award winning TV and BBC Radio 1 presenter, author and journalist, is the host of season eight of the Women's Prize's Bookshelfie Podcast.

Jason and Michael critique predictions of a housing market crash, arguing that current data contradicts "doomer" narratives. They highlight that inventory levels and months of supply are significantly lower today than during the 2008 financial crisis, making a massive price collapse unlikely. The speakers emphasize that government intervention and central bank policies are structurally designed to support the housing market, as it represents a massive portion of the national economy. They also point out that rising wages and increasing FHA loan limits are improving affordability and driving transaction volume. Ultimately, the discussion advises investors to ignore emotional clickbait and instead align themselves with long-term economic facts and cash-flowing assets. https://onerentalatatime.com/ #HousingMarket2025 #RealEstateFacts #NoHousingCrash #InventoryShortage #NARData #HousingInventory #MedianSalesPrice #Affordability #WageGrowth #TransactionVolume #EconomicStability #FHALoanLimits #GovernmentIntervention #CentralBanks #IncomeProperty #FixedRateDebt #CashFlow #MarketCycles #RealEstateInvesting #WealthBuilding #HousingSupply #MarketTrends #SmartInvesting #FactCheck #EconomicImpact #HousingBubble #PropertyInvestment #DebtDestruction #MarketTruths #InvestmentStrategy   Key Takeaways: 00:00 Intro 1:34 NAR Data: What they're NOT telling you 11:17 Existing home sales 16:55 What a housing crash needs  19:22 Hgher limits on FHA loans 22:08 Keep banging that drum   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: House of Earth and Blood- Revisited! "Let's do something with this potential!" Happy Fifth Birthday, ACOFAE! FIVE YEARS! Can you believe it!? Laura Marie and Jessica Marie thought there was no better way to celebrate this anniversary than by reexamining the book that started the pod -- literally. House of Earth and Blood is a force. She's thick, she's complicated, and she's one of the loves of ACOFAE's lives. A story that is many things, but in this book the story is about friendship. Danika and Bryce. There's so much so say. Laura Marie hasn't touched this book since 2020 and is surprised at what a reread brings out and Jessica Marie has opinions. Rounding out the convo is a discussion about fan fiction and fan theories and how those can help or hinder the canon plots, and how fan fiction will always be there for us when we need it.

In this NBN episode, NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with acclaimed Manitoba author David Elias about his new novel, Into the D/Ark (Radiant Press, 2025).  Rose Martens struggles with the aftermath of a terrible fire that has left her sons, Jake and Isaac, horribly disfigured. The boys have gone to live in an abandoned house they've named Bachelor's Paradise, where they spend all their time watching American network television. Their father Clarence works day and night in his blacksmith shop, producing bizarre metallic creations no one can make any sense of. Martha Wiebe returns to the stifling conformity of the valley to discover that her brother Abe, a preacher, has abandoned his congregation to devote himself to the construction of “The Ark”, a massive and mysterious edifice whose purpose he will not divulge. When the first major snowstorm of the year roars into the valley, it unleashes a chain of bizarre events that the valley may never recover from. About David Elias: David Elias is the author of seven books, most recently The Truth about the Barn: A Voyage of Discovery and Contemplation, published by Great Plains Publications.

I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients.
