 639. Part 2 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America.Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

"The Hurricane" by William Cullen Bryant (November 3, 1794 – June 12, 1878) was an American romantic poet, journalist, and long-time editor of the New York Evening Post. Born in Massachusetts, in 1825, Bryant relocated to New York City, where he became an editor of two major newspapers. He also emerged as one of the most significant poets in early literary America and has been grouped among the fireside poets for his accessible and popular poetry. "Lord of the winds! I feel thee nigh,     I know thy breath in the burning sky!     And I wait, with a thrill in every vein,     For the coming of the hurricane! And lo! on the wing of the heavy gales,     Through the boundless arch of heaven he sails;     Silent and slow, and terribly strong,     The mighty shadow is borne along,     Like the dark eternity to come;" This week in Louisiana history.

THIS WEEK'S MESSAGE: Today's Fireside Friday centered around lighthouses! I was struck in my research of these great symbols of hope how many of the light houses keepers within would really struggle with isolation, paranoia and depression because most of them were in such isolation from everyone else. How often have we looked at lighthouses as beacons of hope and strength, but have we ever really stopped to think about the cost it's taken to maintain those stances? Where in our life and leadership have we been holding the line, but perhaps we need a break or even just a check-in on how we're doing? Acknowledging where we need support or aid within us is essential to continuing the longstanding hope and love we want to bring to the world. ABOUT: Welcome to a Fireside Friday Recording.

This fireside talk down begins with a short breathing exercise and is then followed by a simple visualization, imagining your ideal place to relax, which will help to take your mind away from present worries. It will then go into a "countdown to relaxation" from 20 and will finish with some repeating affirmations that will gradually become quieter until you are left with the soothing sound of the crackling fire as you continue to fall asleep.

E122 Fireside Chat at Global VC Demo Day London June 2025 with Neil Foster & Scott Smedresman on Fireside with a VC. Discussing the changes and market dynamics of the VC startup ecosystems in London, New York, and Silicon Valley. What has changed and how should strategies adjust?

What is the distinction between making a decision and making a commitment? Eric and his friends explore how a decision is often a mental choice or intention, while commitment involves aligned action, habits, and consistent movement over time. The conversation uses personal anecdotes, such as bike rides and health goals, to illustrate this difference, highlighting instances where decisions were made but commitment was lacking, or vice-versa. They also touch upon how personality types and external influences can impact one's ability to commit, ultimately emphasizing the importance of both mental resolve and physical action to achieve desired outcomes. Key Takeaways: Translate your mental decisions into active, behavioral commitments to ensure you move forward. Actively seek out supportive and motivated individuals who will positively influence your commitment to goals. Connect your commitments to a deeply compelling reason to build enduring motivation and overcome challenges. Embrace patience and long-term consistency, as meaningful progress from commitments often takes significant time. Leverage self-awareness by understanding your personality type to tailor commitments in a way that fuels your engagement.

THIS WEEK'S MESSAGE: Today's Fireside Friday is around navigating fear. Fear almost ALWAYS is being created by things we're imagining. How can we treat fear as a teacher/friend and also allow those in our lives to meet us in those places? What if letting people into our fear/uncertainty is actually the way that we can truly lead and be known in the ways that we crave? Perhaps allowing the truth of our fear allows us to find a way forward TOGETHER. ABOUT: Welcome to a Fireside Friday Recording.

In this episode, Michael speaks with Nate Dominy, the Charles Hansen Professor of Anthropology at Dartmouth College. Nate is a biological anthropologist and an evolutionary biologist, studying the behavior, ecology, and functional morphology of humans and nonhuman primates. Nate speaks with Michael about his new research program on the role of fire in promoting social cohesion among humans. Fire is argued to have played an important role in human evolutionary history, and there are multiple mechanisms that have been hypothesized for how it could promote cohesion, including its rhythmic nature (its flicker rate), and its ability to enable storytelling, which itself is known to facilitate an increased sense of belonging and togetherness. This topic is an important complement to more traditional commons and institutional studies discussed on this podcast, which largely focus on how rules and norms can promote collective action and other outcomes.   References: Nate's website: https://anthropology.dartmouth.edu/people/nathaniel-j-dominy Dunbar R.I.M., Gowlett J.A.J. 2014 Fireside chat: the impact of fire on hominin socioecology.

Well hello there everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Trophy Talk! I (Colin) have stolen the proverbial keys back from Max and am back reunited with Josh to talk all things trophies and what we've been playing in the month of June. First and foremost a very special thank you goes out to Max and Josh for hosting the show while I was on vacation last month, they did a wonderful job. Second, a big thank you goes out to Kevin Garaventa for hosting and putting together our Network's Fireside chat episode. Not only was this episode really well done, but it also inspired us to start focusing on smaller titles and trophy hunts once again. In discussing that topic on this episode Josh and Colin feel that these smaller titles from indie developers (or retro games) may be the key to rediscovering some of the joys of trophy hunting in the second half of the year. That isn't too say that longer lists like Death Stranding weren't worth the time effort, simply that as life gets busier, it is important to have these smaller pallet cleanser games to keep things fresh. Across this episode, Josh and Colin discuss which shorter experiences have been drawing them in recently, all while addressing Patreon write ins, Platinum Shout Outs, and all the tangents that come along with those topics. Of note is that discussions on Robocop, and Elden Ring Nightreign take up a significant amount of time here as Colin and Josh both try to parse out the things they loved and things they found annoying in Fromsoftware's newest title. Do we recommend Elden Ring: Nightreign to the non-soul's player? Does Josh have any idea what the movie Total Recall is about? All of these answers and more lie just beyond the play button. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

Hello, dear listeners. Despondent that the Kingmaker Histories isn't currently releasing? Of course you are. But luckily, there's an easy fix for that. During our between-season break, we're going to be sharing a few audio dramas with you that we think you'll really, really love. This month we're sharing Fireside Folktales by Dallas Hawthorn. Season One, Whispering, is a retelling of the myth of Hades and Persephone, as told through the perspective of the soon-to-be Queen of the Dead. Season Two, which you're hearing a sample of today, is a performance of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream; an experience filled to the brim with music, mischief, magic, and stereo sound design. Learn more about the show here!

On the five-year anniversary of Responsibly Different™, we're diving deep into why healthy media ecosystems matter—not just for brands, but for the very fabric of our communities and democracy. Our Founder Chris and Impact Director Benn reflect on the last 5 years of the podcast and the next chapter of the Responsibly Different™ podcast.Did you know counties that lose their local newspapers see a 2-3% drop in voter turnout? Or that 75% of Americans trust local news compared to only 58% who trust national outlets? As these vital information sources struggle financially, the ripple effects touch everything from civic engagement to community health outcomes.The podcast explores how programmatic buying, while efficient, often delivers just pennies on the dollar to publishers compared to direct relationships. This financial reality has forced newsrooms to stretch resources dangerously thin, cutting staff and replacing local content with syndicated material. Host Chris Marine shares firsthand experiences from his early career in journalism, painting a vivid picture of what happens when newsrooms lack adequate funding.We're examining the tension between efficiency and responsibility in media planning. While direct publisher relationships require more time and human interaction, they create stronger partnerships, better placements, and support vital community resources. However, the traditional marketing timeline—where media is treated as the last box to check—makes this approach difficult to execute effectively.The conversation shifts to how AI and technology advancements are enabling more relevant, contextual messaging that respects audience mindsets throughout their day. Rather than viewing these tools as replacements for human judgment, we see them as opportunities to free marketers to focus on the ethical dimensions of their work.Listen now to join our exploration of media's role in society and how brands can leverage their advertising investments as a force for good while achieving business objectives.

In this episode of Fireside, Chris Marine and David Gogel sit down with veteran broadcast journalist and Edward R. Murrow Award winner Brian Yocono for a heartfelt conversation about the purpose and power of journalism.Brian reflects on what it means to report with integrity, the evolving role of local news, and the human side of working in a newsroom. For Chris, who worked alongside Brian early in his career, this conversation is deeply personal — and rooted in the founding values of Campfire: truth, service, and showing up for people.But it's also a conversation with real implications for brand leaders, media buyers, and anyone responsible for allocating advertising budgets. Where media dollars go matters. When spent wisely, they can help uphold one of our nation's foundational pillars — a free and independent press.Whether you're a strategist, a creative, or simply someone who believes in the power of truth, this episode is a reminder that journalism still matters and it's worth fighting for.Enjoying this content?

An album pin is a lapel pin with artwork inspired by a specific album or song from an album. It could be the actual album artwork or it could be inspired by a specific track on the album. The best album pins stand out on their own. They appeal to more than just your fans. It is simple, bold, and visually engaging. However, what truly makes it an “album pin” is that the purchaser also gets a digital album with their pin. I have an entire blog on my website with details including templates for you to make your own album pin jacket. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

In this raw and intimate episode, Sammy "The Bull" Gravano takes us back to his days in the infamous ADX Florence the so-called Alcatraz of the Rockies. Locked down 23 hours a day, surrounded by concrete and silence, a letter from his daughter becomes a lifeline. But it's a surprise visitor, a moth, that sparks a moment of reflection that still haunts him to this day.What most would swat without a second thought, Sammy saw as a sign... a message that even in the darkest corners of the world, there's still light, beauty, and something worth holding onto.This isn't just a prison story. It's a meditation on survival, sanity, and the small, unexpected moments that remind us we're still human. Don't miss this one.
