Every great artist from Caravaggio to Frida Kahlo has fought the same invisible war, and Stephen Roach makes the case that it is not a coincidence.In this solo reflection, Stephen traces a decade-long question that has haunted him: why does creative expression seem to attract so much internal and external opposition? Drawing on scripture, church history, and the lives of artists who battled addiction, trauma, and mental illness, he builds a case for why creativity and faith are so deeply intertwined, and why that connection makes artists a centerpiece in a spiritual battle. He highlights an uncanny parallel between the King of Tyre in Ezekiel 28 and the artisans in Exodus, then lands in the present moment, asking what it means to keep making human art in an age of artificial intelligence. Listeners will walk away with a framework for understanding creative resistance and a renewed sense of why their work matters.KEY TOPICS COVERED• Why creativity is rooted in the image of God• The historical pattern of struggle among great artists, from addiction to mental illness• The church's complicated relationship with the arts• What the rise of AI means for the future of human creativity• Why art may be the last human frontier in an automated worldABOUT THE HOSTStephen Roach is the host of Makers and Mystics, a podcast exploring the intersection of creativity, faith, and the human experience. He is an artist, curator, poet, and musician. He is currently writing How to See Invisible Things, a book exploring the inner life of art and faith. Stephen has spent over a decade advocating for creativity as a spiritual discipline.RESOURCES AND LINKS The War of Art by Steven Pressfield - referenced for its concept of Resistance and creative struggleSend us Fan MailSupport the showSign Up for Our Newsletter! http://eepurl.com/g49Ks1Connect with Makers & MysticsWebsite: https://makersandmystics.comPatreon: https://patreon.com/makersandmysticsInstagram: https://instagram.com/makersandmystics

durée : 00:03:47 - Les Matins de France Culture - par : Raphaël Laloum - En 1927, Frida Kahlo a 20 ans. Après un terrible accident de bus à Mexico, la jeune femme a dû arrêter ses études de médecine. Durant sa rééducation, Frida peint ses premiers autoportraits qui deviennent le miroir de ses douleurs et tourments. - équipe : Thomas Beau Vous aimez ce podcast ?

Ils sont les ambassadeurs de ce qu'on a appelé la « mexicanité ». Frida Kahlo et Diego Rivera ont toute leur vie défendu et valorisé la culture mexicaine bafouée jusque là par les colons européens. Ils sont un couple hors norme : des amis fidèles, des amants tumultueux, d'immenses artistes s'admirant et s'inspirant l'un l'autre.

Welcome back to a very special episode of ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists. This BONUS mini episode celebrates Episode #80 of the Pod - and features a very special guest. The youngest one in ARTMATTERS history, in fact.Before we begin, I want to take a moment to say thank you. To everyone who's listened, shared the show, supported on Patreon, and to all the artists and friends who kept telling me to keep going over these past four years. Because projects like this are funny. They don't come with obvious signs that they're working. There's no paycheck. And because it takes so much time, out of my own studio practice and out of the time artists generously give me, there have definitely been moments where I've had to ask myself not whether I believe in it, but whether the value is worth what it costs everyone involved. And whenever I've hit those moments, there have always been people who reminded me that these conversations matter. Thank you.Since we're hitting 80 this week I'll also mention that incorporating video into this project has definitely added to the overhead and time the show requires. So in the spirit of an NPR pledge drive, if you've been here a while and you're in a position to support, becoming a patron or making a one-time donation would mean a lot. I want to keep this show listener supported and ad-free as long as I can so if you'd like to help, that's the best way to do it. My guest today is Leo Ambrosio. Leo is eleven years old, going into the sixth grade, and he recently exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum. It began with a program called the Basquiat Project. The Basquiat Project is an arts education program developed by the Brooklyn Nets in partnership with the New York City Department of Education. It ran in fifty Brooklyn middle and high schools, asking students to make work about bullying, anxiety, and how you move through it. Out of everyone who submitted, about a hundred pieces made it into the show at the Brooklyn Museum.Leo was one of them. For today's episode, Leo and his mom joined me in my Bushwick studio. Leo got his hands dirty and helped me prepare some new paintings, then we sat down with the mics and had this conversation. We talk about Leo's mixed media painting that was selected for the Basquiat Project, about finishing a painting and second guessing yourself, about Frida Kahlo and the Knicks trophy and drawing hands and art camp.  Enjoy the episode!The Basquiat Project Patreon Isaac MannLeo Ambrosio 

En noviembre de 2025 el cuadro "El sueño (la cama)" de Frida Kahlo se vendió por 54,66 millones de dólares. Frida Kahlo es, hoy, la artista plástica más cotizada de la historia. Esto, por sí solo, es suficiente para armarle un episodio. Y aquí está. Sin embargo, no vamos a hablar sobre el reconocimiento mundial de Frida, ni de su valor en mercado. En este episodio vamos a hablar de las formas en las que la obra de Kahlo conecta en un nivel afectivo, emocional y personal. De cómo su arte nos habla, hoy, a nuestros lazos familiares, de amistad y políticos, y cómo nos invita a imaginar futuros distintos. Para ello, nos acompaña la Helena Chávez Mac Gregor, investigadora del IIE-UNAM, y autora del libro "El listón y la bomba. El arte de Frida Kahlo" (Editorial Lumen)

¿Qué pasaría si pudiéramos sentarnos a platicar hoy con Sócrates, con Maquiavelo, Simone de Beauvoir, Frida Kahlo o George Orwell? ¿Qué dirían estos personajes del populismo, de las redes sociales, de la vigilancia digital, del feminismo de nuestros días? Yuriria Sierra, periodista, nos presenta su nuevo libro "Charlas imposibles (y urgentes) en el siglo XXI”.

In this monthly episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, Jonathan Thomas returns with his August edition of What's On in London — and this one comes with a personal twist, because Jonathan will be in London himself later in the month. August is London's most contradictory month: the busiest tourist season of the year, a million-plus visitors, packed attractions and carnival streets — and yet simultaneously the month when Londoners themselves flee to Cornwall and France, leaving whole districts strangely quiet. Jonathan covers it all: the Notting Hill Carnival (August 30–31, its 60th anniversary this year, Europe's largest street festival, free entry); the major royal and historic building openings including Buckingham Palace State Rooms, Houses of Parliament summer tours, and the freshly restored Banqueting House reopening August 1st; London's brand new museum, Trent Park House of Secrets — just opened July 21st, telling the extraordinary wartime spy story that was kept under the Official Secrets Act for over 50 years; new West End openings including Jane Eyre the Musical and Kimberly Akimbo; the blockbuster exhibitions still running and closing this month; live music at Victoria Park and Wembley; family-friendly highlights; the VAT tourist discount reducing admission prices across major attractions this summer; and Jonathan's own personal list of what he's booked and planning to see — including the Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace's East Wing tour, the Wallace Collection's Churchill as Painter exhibition, and Trent Park.

The Saturday Steel Band Competition (August 29) requires a ticket; Sunday Children's Day and Monday main parade are free. Arrive early, follow your nose to the food stalls, and keep your wits about you in the crowds. Trent Park House of Secrets — London's brand new museum, opened July 21st — tells the extraordinary story of the WWII intelligence operation where 59 captured German generals were housed in apparent luxury, never knowing the entire house was bugged. Often called "the other Bletchley Park." Tickets are £14 (~$20), open Tuesday–Sunday, and it's on the Piccadilly Line at Oakwood station. Jonathan is going. Buckingham Palace State Rooms are open daily through August 31, 9:30am to 7:30pm — the longest opening hours of the season. Jonathan has booked both the State Rooms tour and the newly opened East Wing tour. If you haven't booked yet, check for remaining availability immediately; the best slots are gone but cancellations do appear. Banqueting House on Whitehall — Inigo Jones's 1622 masterpiece with its Rubens ceiling, the building outside which Charles I was executed — reopens fully on August 1st after a major restoration. Adults £10, under 16s free, open Thursday–Monday. New lift for step-free access. One of London's most underrated experiences. The Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower of London — the world's oldest unbroken military ceremony, performed every night for at least 700 years — releases the next month's tickets on the first working day of each month. The next release is August 3rd at 1pm. Jonathan got a ticket; it requires an early wake-up and sells out within hours of release. The UK government has instituted a 15% VAT discount on tourist attraction admissions this summer — which means lower prices at major London attractions. If you booked in advance, you may be entitled to a partial refund for the difference; check with each venue. Lower prices also means slightly larger crowds. The Greenwich + Docklands International Festival runs August 21 to September 6 — 17 days of completely free outdoor theatre, circus and dance across Greenwich Park, Woolwich, and the Docklands. The two-day Greenwich Fair on August 22–23 in Greenwich Park is the unmissable centerpiece. No ticket required — just show up. Several major exhibitions close on or around August 23rd — a critical date. Zurbarán at the National Gallery, Fairy Tales at the British Library, David Hockney at the Royal Academy, Hervien Anderson at Tate Britain, and Patrick Caulfield at the Royal Academy all close that day. If you're arriving after August 23rd, these are gone. The BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall run all month and into September — the world's largest classical music festival, with day-of standing tickets potentially available on the door. Jonathan hasn't managed to go yet and still wants to. It's worth trying even if you can't book ahead. August in London is genuinely two cities at once: over a million tourists fill the attractions and the carnival streets, while large swaths of residential London go quiet as locals escape. The wise visitor uses this: the tourist attractions are busy, but the parks, the residential neighborhoods, and the early mornings are surprisingly peaceful. Soundbites "August is London's most contradictory month. Every guidebook tells you it's peak season — and every guidebook is right. And yet at exactly the same time, London kind of empties out. Locals flee to Cornwall, to France, to anywhere that isn't a stuffy office in a heat wave. Whole districts can go completely quiet." — Jonathan on August's strange duality. "The Notting Hill Carnival is that one weekend where London's multicultural and diverse character — which can feel oddly invisible at other times of the year — is front and center. It's loud. It's joyful. And it's entirely free." — Jonathan on why the carnival matters. "They captured high-level German officers and put them all in one place. What the prisoners didn't know was that the entire house was wired with microphones. And hidden in a concealed basement, around a hundred secret listeners — many of them German-speaking Jewish refugees who had fled the Nazis — were recording and transcribing every careless word." — Jonathan on Trent Park House of Secrets. "I have wanted to go inside Buckingham Palace for twenty years. I'm finally doing it this year. I've got my tickets booked. I'm going to do the State Room tour, I'm going to see the freshly rehung picture gallery, and I've booked the East Wing tour. That is going to take a whole Saturday. I cannot wait." — Jonathan on his long-awaited Buckingham Palace visit. "The Ceremony of the Keys is considered the world's longest military ceremony. They say it's been running for a thousand years — I'm skeptical, but at least as long as there's been a Tower of London. I woke up early and managed to snag a ticket before they sold out. Because they do sell out immediately." — Jonathan on booking the Ceremony of the Keys. "Banqueting House. Inigo Jones's masterpiece on Whitehall, with its Rubens ceiling. The one surviving fragment of the old Palace of Whitehall — the very spot where Charles I was executed in 1649. It reopens for the summer on August 1st. That is a lot of history in one place." — Jonathan on Banqueting House reopening. "The government has instituted a fifteen percent discount off the twenty percent VAT for tourists visiting tourist attractions this summer. So this month you will see lower prices at all of London's major tourist attractions. And if you booked in advance, you should be getting a refund." — Jonathan on the summer VAT tourist discount. "I love Star Trek. I have seen every episode of Star Trek dozens of times. You can't see over there, but I'm building the LEGO Enterprise D model right now. And I'm going to go see this exhibition because it's the 60th anniversary and the producers don't seem to want to celebrate it much — but everybody else is." — Jonathan on his plan to visit the Star Trek at 60 Trail at the Science Museum. "Several things close on August 23rd. I'm arriving after August 23rd. So I'm going to miss the David Hockney, the Zurbarán, the Tracey Emin. It's a bit annoying. But it is what it is." — Jonathan on the painful August 23rd exhibition closing cliff. "If you see a slightly sun-birthed Anglophile wandering the food stalls at one of the festivals going on later in August — do say hello. It might just be me." — Jonathan's closing invitation.

Barbara Mujica is a multi-award-winning, bestselling novelist, and a professor emerita at Georgetown University. She's also a short-story writer, essayist, and critic. She's been published in The New York Times, The Miami Herald, and The Washington Post. Barbara's stories have appeared in numerous magazines and literary journals.  She's a two-time nominee for the Pushcart Prize for Fiction. And her work has been optioned for the movies and adapted for the stage. Her latest novel, Miss del Río, which is a historical fiction about the great Mexican-American actress, Dolores Del Rio, has been optioned for a film by John Black Productions. It was a Target Book Club pick, an Apple Audio "Must Listen," a Library Journal "Best Book of the Year" selection, and The Washington Post named it "One of the five best recent historical novels." I've read Miss Del Rio, and can tell you it's riveting storytelling about a real-life major movie star as she lives and works in an elite world few ever get to experience. Miss Del Rio is a fascinating glimpse into many of the true characters of Hollywood's silent era as it transitioned to talkies and far beyond.Among Barbara's published books are Frida, a best seller is based on the tumultuous relationship between the artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, Sister Teresa, I Am Venus, The Deaths of Don Bernardo, and three short story collections: Imagining Iraq, Sanchez Across the Street, and Far from My Mother's Home. As a scholar, Barbara specializes in Early Modern Spanish literature and contemporary Latin American Culture. Barbara's also been active in veterans' issues at Georgetown since 2010. Her book Collateral Damage: Women Write about War was inspired by a symposium she organized at Georgetown on women and war. And you may have seen or heard Barbara being interviewed on CBS-TV News, NPR, NBC Radio, The PBS TV News Hour, and CNN-LatinoIn case you're wondering about the intermittent snoring throughout much of the show, it is Barbara's dog, Frankie, who was taking a long snooze as we were recording. 

"I love this phrase you've used - explain ourselves to ourselves." Joanne Joseph sits down with best-selling author Alka Joshi for a rich, expansive conversation on Six Days in Bombay. Together they unpack why Alka only came to novel writing later in life, the mother whose real story became the seed of The Henna Artist, and the painter Amrita Sher-Gil, "the Frida Kahlo of India", whose bold, uncompromising life inspired the character of Mira. They talk about the responsibility of writing historical fiction with care, the meticulous research behind Alka's immersive worlds, and the layered ways women in her novels travel outward to find their way back to themselves. It's also a wider conversation about heritage, colonisation, and why literature matters as a tool for explaining ourselves to ourselves. Alka Joshi's new book is Six Days in Bombay. Inspired by the life of Amrita Sher-Gil, it follows nurse Sona as she carries a cryptic note and four paintings across a Europe teetering toward war, in search of the truth about the woman who left them in her care, and about herself. Alka Joshi is the best-selling author of The Henna Artist and the Jaipur Trilogy. Her books have been translated into nearly 30 languages. Joanne Joseph is a TV and radio presenter, producer, and writer, and the author of Children of Sugarcane and Drug Muled.

Britain's governing Labour Party has officially declared Andy Burnham its new leader paving the way for him to replace Keir Starmer as prime minister. In his first speech as leader, he pledged to 'bring back hope'. China's President Xi Jinping has called for global cooperation on the development of artificial intelligence to mitigate the risks it poses. India has begun operating its first ever hydrogen-powered train; it's hoped the green technology will help modernise one of the world's biggest rail networks. The Japanese parliament has approved a bill to relax imperial succession rules, amid concerns over the dwindling size of the imperial family. But it does not change the law barring women from ascending to the throne. An angry crowd has reportedly attacked a hospital housing an Ebola treatment centre, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, forcing patients and health workers to flee. A UK study of a minimally-invasive treatment for prostate cancer has found it is as effective as surgery or radiotherapy - but with far fewer side-effects. For the first time, astronomers have detected an atmosphere around an Earth-like rocky planet that could have water on its surface. And the great niece of the acclaimed Mexican artist Frida Kahlo expresses concern that the growing hype and merchandise connected with her image, might detract from her art.

In her short lifetime of just 47 years, Frida Kahlo was a relatively little-known artist. Now, she's a global icon. And while her actual work is hard to come by, her image is not.  Tate Modern's Frida: The Making of an Icon explores how Kahlo's iconic status came to be and her enduring influence on generations of younger artists.  Co-curator Beatriz Garcia-Velasco, talks to Jen about the exhibition, Kahlo's life and work, and the way in which she's been adopted as a cultural icon in feminist, LGBTQ+, and disabled communities.

There are only a very few artists from the 20th century who are truly household names, figures like Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, and Andy Warhol. The name M.C. Escher is certainly on that short list. Escher's impact on the wider culture may be as big, or even bigger that of those other figures, even as he remains somewhat hard to classify as an artist. Born Maurits Cornelis Escher, the Dutch artist was a highly skilled maker of woodcuts, lithographs, and engravings, bringing a sense of exquisite precision and intricate geometry to his compositions. But as an artist, Escher is almost synonymous with the idea of visual paradox. You will know him for works like Drawing Hands (from 1953), depicting two hands holding pencils, each seeming to emerge from a piece of paper, where they are each being drawn by the other, in a magical loop. Or for Ascending and Descending (from 1960), showing a palace with a looping set of stairs on its roof, which seem, due to Escher's cleverly realized optical illusion, to be leading tiny pilgrims both upwards and downwards—at the same time. So, is Escher one of the greats, or is he more of a novelty act? My colleague, Jo Lawson-Tancred recently went to see a show currently at Somerset House in London that's called “M.C. Escher: The Exhibition,” which includes 150 of Escher's original works from all the major phases of his career. Art Critic, Ben Davis leapt at the chance to talk to Jo about the show, the artist, and the cultural phenomenon that is M.C. Escher.

祝弗里达·卡罗生日快乐！弗里达·卡罗 (Frida Kahlo)，墨西哥甚至全世界最著名的画家之一。她的一字眉，她的传奇人生，她极具辨识度的那个头戴花环的形象，即便有人可能叫不出她的名字，也一定在很多个地方见过她的图片。今年春天，弗里达日记的中文版出版，边读这本日记，边回顾过往这些年，我一次又一次在她的身上、在她的作品里、在她的日记里，尽管读到灾难、疾病、痛苦、背叛、死亡，但更多的时候还是会被那些极其耀眼的色彩、跳动的生命力、炽热的爱意，甚至一种几乎不曾熄灭的革命浪漫主义点燃。我甚至找不出第二个人更符合加缪的那句话：我的身上有一个不可战胜的夏天。因此在 7 月 7 日，弗里达为自己选定的生日，我们用这期弗里达特辑，为她庆生，也正好在小暑节气到来的这一天，一起庆祝夏天，感受夏天，创造一个与众不同的夏天。但今天这期节目，我不想再按照时间线索重述弗里达的苦难编年史，我想用另一个关键词来讲她——创造。一个身体被打碎的人，是怎样在画布上一遍遍把自己重新缝合起来的？一个被命运反复挑战的人，是怎样把这一切灾难都变成对自己的重新发明的？那个不可战胜的夏天里，究竟有什么？本期节目你将听到：05:06 她创造自己的时间，修改自己的出生日期08:41 做自己的造物主：《我的出生》重新创造了自己诞生的神话13:51 自我叙事的起点 —— 6 岁的疾病16:39 她创造自己的形象：从一场车祸开始19:05 每一张自画像，都是对自己的重新塑造24:42 《两个弗里达》：从 6 岁开始与自己对话32:40 《断裂的脊柱》：一位女战士的诞生34:53 她创造自己的语言41:37 亲手撕掉「超现实主义」的标签45:30 一个永远无法被归类的艺术家：我只创造我自己的世界46:34 她创造自己的时尚：真正的时尚从来不是追随，是创造53:21 她创造自己的情感叙事：弗里达到底是不是「恋爱脑」？58:37 她创造自己的「革命时代」01:04:59 弗里达的一生都与革命紧密相连01:09:20 生命的最后，依然要表达01:10:59 一个永远在扩散的女性icon，激励全世界的女人01:14:03 她创造自己的死亡▲ 弗里达日记中文版▲ 弗里达人生的第一幅自画像和《我的出生》▲ 弗里达和《两个弗里达》▲ 弗里达的自画像▲ 弗里达与迭戈▲ 弗里达与托洛茨基及他的妻子▲ 弗里达在人生最后依然在表达▲ 一个永远不可战胜的夏天【节目制作】主播/制作：VC ( 微博：@VividCrystal / 小红书：@午夜飞行VC )运营：Amber视觉：李马克【节目互动】微博：@午夜飞行Official公众号：午夜飞行【商务合作】添加微信：hellomarcast或联系邮箱：hello@marcastmedia.com【欢迎加入听友群】入群方式 A：微信添加小助手 Amber (ID: hellomarcast)，拉你入群入群方式 B：关注公众号「午夜飞行」 ，回复「听友群」三个字，即可获取入群通道【本集音乐】Diego Rivera - Danzonera ChiapasFrida - Danzonera ChiapasCarabina 3030 - Corrido Tradicional - El Poder del NorteBurning Bed - Elliot GoldenthalCoyacan and Variations - Elliot GoldenthalSolo tu - Elliot GoldenthalPortrait of Lupe - Elliot GoldenthalStill Life - Elliot GoldenthalThe Floating Bed - Elliot GoldenthalThe Journey - Elliot GoldenthalRue des trois frères - Fabrizio PaterliniBenediction and Dream - Lila DownsEl Conejo - Los CojolitesViva la vida - Trio Marimberos【封面图片】Photo by【节目出品】由播客厂牌 Marcast® 制作出品，也欢迎你订阅收听 Marcast 旗下的其他播客节目。你可以通过以下方式找到我们：小红书：@Marcast公众号：Marcast微博：@Marcast进听友群请添加微信：hellomarcast一键订阅 Marcast 制作出品的节目：https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/collection/podcast/69e8996f7c9a3ea695fec9e8欢迎订阅「Beads 英文播客洞察」：每周为你从国外优质播客中提取、总结、延伸那些 90% 的人听不到的、隐藏在声音里的一手信息、经验、知识、工具、趣味和审美，和你一起拓展认知视野。订阅地址：https://wx.zsxq.com/group/48885158452488© 2026 Marcast Media

Send us Fan MailAngelo, Rhea, and Jay are back and this week Hugh Laurie said the quiet part out loud, and the internet still hasn't recovered. After a freelance critic named Janet Murray posted on X that House has "the same narrative every episode," Laurie responded with a thread so sarcastic it went viral — cataloguing every alternative structure they tried, comparing the formula to Bach and Frida Kahlo, and closing with "I look forward to your first novel." The internet mobbed Murray immediately. But here's the thing: she's not wrong. House is formulaic — that's what procedurals are. Laurie's real defense wasn't "no it isn't." It was that if all you see is the formula, it wasn't meant for you. Is that the most honest thing a creator has ever said in public about their own work, or is it exactly what every creator thinks and should never, ever say out loud?THEN: Spielberg's Disclosure Day opens Friday.

Most people don't think of themselves as creative. In fact, research shows that about 75% of adults self-identify as non-creative. But what if the problem isn't that they lack creativity — it's that they've been defining it wrong? Blythe Harris, co-founder and former chief creative officer of Stella & Dot, and Mallory May, jewelry designer and illustrator, created Daily Creative to change that conversation. Their practice is built around mini-c creativity: just five minutes of creative engagement per day — no talent required, no finished product expected — that delivers measurable benefits including lower stress, improved focus, healthier dopamine, and the kind of meditative calm most of us are chasing through much more complicated means.In this episode: the science behind why five minutes works, how Blythe's near-death experience in 1995 became the seed of Daily Creative, why perfectionism kills creativity faster than anything else, and how to start a creative practice that actually sticks — whether you're going through a career transition, entering midlife, managing kids on Zoom school, or just looking for five minutes that are genuinely yours.Follow Duologue: Instagram: @duologuepod Substack: duologue.substack.com Find Blythe & Mallory here:

Cindy Adams delivers a sharp-tongued and eclectic monologue that blends New York social commentary with global news. She begins by lampooning the messy realities of the Memorial Day holiday, mocking beach culture and the local obsession with championship sports before pivoting to a scathing critique of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson based on a new biography. The program transitions into an interview with former Fire Commissioner Sal Cassano, who provides a grounded perspective on the bravery of first responders and the harrowing legacy of September 11th. Adams concludes the episode with her signature "bitchery," touching on the legacy of Frida Kahlo, warning her audience about modern telephone scams, and offering a cynical view of international politics. Throughout the recording, her purpose is to maintain her persona as a veteran media figure who trades in secrets, ensuring her listeners are both informed and entertained by her unapologetic worldview.

Frida Kahlo's short life came to a tragic and painful end. She painted until her dying day and her legend has grown ever since. Joining us again for the conclusion of this series, our friend Amy!Sources:Herrera, Hayden, and Frida Kahlo. Frida Kahlo. New York, N.Y., Rizzoli, 1992.‌Kahlo, Frida. The Letters of Frida Kahlo.

Frank Carbajal grew up the son of Mexican migrant farmworkers in California's Imperial Valley, where summer temperatures hit 115 degrees and his mother worked the fields through her third trimester. Today he's the founder and president of Es Tiempo LLC, a co-author of three books on Latino leadership, founder of the Silicon Valley Latino Leadership Summit at Stanford University, and a former keynote speaker in Ken Blanchard's network. In this conversation with Simma, Frank talks about what it actually means to be Latino in America today — and why that word doesn't fit everyone who could claim it. He breaks down the Bracero Program that brought his parents to the U.S., the "101 Infrastructure Divide" that shows how Latino hands built Silicon Valley while Latino representation in tech sits in the single digits, and why his mother told him being bilingual is a superpower. This is a conversation about immigration, identity, family, and what it takes to move from picking fruit in the fields to standing in front of executive boardrooms — without ever forgetting where you came from. What You'll Learn What the Bracero Program was, and how it shaped Mexican American families in California for generations Why "Latino" is not one identity — and how to talk to people about their background without making assumptions The real numbers behind Latino representation in education, the corporate boardroom, and venture capital How to start a conversation across race and culture without getting yourself into trouble Why being bilingual is a competitive advantage, not something to hide What "the 101 Infrastructure Divide" means and why it matters for anyone working in or with the tech industry How to spot the difference between performative diversity and actual connection Key Takeaways Latinos are not a monolith. There are 20 Latin American countries, multiple generations of Latino Americans, and people who identify as Latino, Latina, Chicano, Mexican American, American, or simply as a leader — and all of those answers are valid. The hands that built Silicon Valley are not the hands sitting in its boardrooms. Latino representation in tech leadership and venture capital is still in the low single digits despite Latinos making up over 40% of California's population. Conversations across race work when you start with what's in front of you — food, art, family, a shared interest — not with politics or assumptions. Bilingualism is a superpower. So is resilience. Frank's parents had third- and fourth-grade educations and built a life for their children through nothing but hard work. Leadership, not identity politics, is the through-line that travels across borders, languages, and generations.

CADENA 100 informa sobre el tiempo, con chubascos en el norte y sol en el resto, y temperaturas en ascenso. En política, el PP andaluz busca gobernar en solitario, mientras la compraventa de viviendas baja y se debate prohibir la adquisición por fondos buitre. Las playas incorporan nuevas banderas para daltónicos, siendo Cádiz la última en sumarse. Se reflexiona sobre la dificultad de aprender idiomas y la importancia de la humildad. También se aborda la falta de unificación de tallas en la ropa, con divertidas anécdotas en probadores. Jimeno presenta a niños que opinan sobre museos y artistas como Miró y Frida Kahlo. Además, se destaca que hablar solo es beneficioso para resolver problemas y se critican los malos hábitos al volante. Suenan canciones de Maldita Nerea y Melendi, Amy Winehouse, Nil Moliner, Katy Perry, El Canto del Loco, Bon Jovi, David Guetta, M Clan y Christina Aguilera con Pitbull.

After a pretty emotional main episode, we ease things up a bit with Natty Harris in this week's Spark. And yes, there's still depth, but there's also plenty of laughs. We get into the creative trends Natty's quietly over (sorry, sans serif lovers), the tiny things that can instantly improve your day, and why a really good pen might be one of life's greatest underrated joys. There's also a very relatable chat about overthinking, writing, and that awkward gap between what's in your head and what actually makes it onto the page. Natty shares her creative hero, Frida Kahlo, and why being unapologetically yourself is harder than it sounds but absolutely worth striving for. Plus, we build the ultimate dinner party guest list, talk Netflix obsessions, and get into the kind of questions that are somehow both silly and weirdly revealing. And of course, we end on a high note with possibly the best question we've ever had for a future guest. It involves pasta. You've been warned.

A podcast introducing the exciting new Spanish-language opera with music by Gabriela Lena Frank to a libretto by Nilo Cruz: what would happen if the myth of Orpheus and Euridice were reenacted by the famous Mexican painters Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo?

Michaela Calzaretta, chorus master and head of music staff, discussed FRIDA & DIEGO with Alex Minami, co-director of programs and partnerships, and Alicia Moriarty, director of production.

Winning answer: Not that big I read an interview with Madonna who said that when people came into her home in LA and they saw her Frida Kahlo collection of paintings, if they didn't like Frida Kahlo, she couldn't be their friend. If I'm hanging out with somebody who turns non-problem problems into problems… I mean, I can still be their friend, but I just don't really wanna hang out with them. Here's the sticky question that changes everything… How big of a problem do you want to make this? The obvious answer is always going to be, like…  Not that big of a problem. Problems don't change until you change how you relate to them. (When we bless them.) We can't control the circumstances in our lives, but we can choose how we think about them. If storms and fires are the work of the Divine, so are flat tires and breakups. All of it is a blessing (even if it's in disguise). Problems become portals when we get excited about transforming them. Where everyone else sees a roadblock, we can be like, guys… it's a secret passage to higher consciousness. Listen in for an excerpt from my new book Bless & Release. Spoiler: The book is funny. That's all I want. Well, it's not all I want. It's what I want the most.

Get to know Frida Kahlo with Beth Evans, Youth and Family Programs Coordinator for the National Portrait Gallery at Smithsonian Institution. Beth tells us what we can learn from Frida's example, and what makes her art and life so special. [This episode originally aired in the app in 2022.]

Frida Kahlo was a Mexican artist who made self-portraits of herself, sometimes with her pet monkey. We are going to visit her in her home, called the Blue House. Enter her lush garden, watch her get ready to be photographed by a friend, and discover how she used your clothes to express herself along the way.
