POPULARITY
Obviously, we couldn't have anyone else come discuss Running Point but Krystal Farmer -- so thank God she agreed, and we went deep on everything from the charms of Kate Hudson to how much of a sport a sports-com should show, plus dumb pro-team fonts and believable sibling energy. Later, we went Around The Dial with Grosse Pointe Garden Society, Futurama on Hulu, and On Call, and Tara schooled us with her A.P. Bio Canon pitch. Éanna Hardwicke won, the Oscars' "In Memoriam" segment lost, and we celebrated the leading ladies of TV in Game Time. It's that that that time again: time to listen to an all-new Extra Hot Great.

Math Is Wonderful by Fred Hardwicke MDThis mathematics book is organized and useful. It departs from the usual pragmatic avenues of math and explores math topics that are only lightly touched on in school. It is a readable and somewhat humorous account that leads readers into a new sense of wonder about the mathematical world that is only a few calculations away. It is appropriate for both high school and college students, and it is an enjoyable read for those who haven't been to school in decades as well. Fred Hardwicke taught medicine, hematology, oncology, and a little bit of math for 21 years in Lubbock, Texas at the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. He was honored with the Internal Medicine Teacher of the Year award in 2004. Now he continues his work in cancer medicine in a unique rural setting. He currently lives with his wife, Beth, in Childress. He has three children and two granddaughters. https://www.amazon.com/Math-Wonderful-Fred-Hardwicke/dp/1963068440www.fredhardwicke.comhttps://www.auctoremhouse.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/21325fwlp.mp3

Summary: Do plants eat meat? Yes they do! Join Kiersten as she discusses the diet of Nepenthes which includes more than just meat. For my hearing impaired listeners, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean Show Notes: “Caught in a Trap,” The Biologist 62(2) p12-14. “Nepenthes lowii: the carnivorous plant that evolved into a toilet,” by Paul Simons.

(Piano music stops) Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. The fourth thing I like about Nepenthes is its diet. These are not your typical plants. Sunlight is not the only thing on the menu. I have spoken of a portion of the diet in the previous episodes, so we all know that Nepenthes eats meat. But before we jump into that portion of their diet let's look at the other half of their diet. It's this half that led to the need for the meat eating side of Nepenthes nutrition. Nepenthes is like other plants that use photosynthesis to grow. I don't know about all of you listeners, but it has been a minute since 6th grade science class, so here is a refresher on how photosynthesis works. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create sugars that they can utilize to survive. Plants take in carbon dioxide through small holes in the leaves, stems, flowers, and other parts of the plant. They will combine that with water, usually absorbed through the roots, and sunlight. The sunlight is the energy that helps the plant combine the carbon dioxide and the water together to create glucose which they use as food to grow big and strong. If they only need those three things, what's up with the soil? Soil offers plants minerals that they need to boost their health and growth. Plants can live without it but to reproduce successfully they need an extra kick. The need for this extra kick is why Nepenthes evolved to eat meat. Most Nepenthes species grow in nutrient poor soil or no soil at all. So they evolved to get the extra minerals they need from another source. How do you catch prey if you don't have teeth or claws and you are rooted in place? Well, you bring the prey to you! Nepenthes developed pitcher traps to attract and catch prey without having to use teeth and claws or roam about searching for prey. The pitcher develops from tendrils that grow as the plant matures. Tendrils will emerge from the midline of leaves and as it matures the tip of the tendril will begin to inflate with air. Once it has inflated to the desired size, which depends on the species and whether it is a lower pitcher or an aerial pitcher, it will fill with liquid. The top of the pitcher will pop open when the pitcher is ready for use. The pitchers of Nepenthes are classified as pitfall traps. This means that they are relying on insects falling into the pitcher and getting stuck inside. A pitfall trap is a trap that something falls into and cannot climb the walls to get out. So, how does this work for the Nepenthes pitcher? The pitcher will attract insects with the scent of pollen. Insects will investigate the trap searching for the source of the smell. There is no pollen to be found inside the pitcher so the insects will turn to leave and discover that they cannot. As they try to climb out, the waxy lining of the pitcher will flake away leaving the insect struggling to get out. But no upward motion is possible and the prey item eventually falls into the liquid at the bottom of the pitcher. The liquid is mainly water until prey falls in and sloshes the water around as it attempts to get out. The vibrations created by the struggle stimulate digestive glands which release a digestive acid. The acid is so strong that an insect the size of a midge will disappear completely within hours. Nepenthes rajah, one of the largest Nepenthes species, can digest mice! What are they getting from these digested insects and mammals? Nitrogen and phosphorus which are vital minerals for the healthy growth of the plant. Those of you that are gardeners probably recognize those elements as being important to plant survival. If you supplement your gardens with fertilizer the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus are extremely important. Let's take a closer look at a specific Nepenthes species's hunting strategy. Nepenthes rafflesiana produces two different pitchers, upper and lower, like many pitches plants do. The uppers pitchers specialize in attracting flying insects while the lower pitchers focus on terrestrial insects. The upper pitchers are narrow and release fragrant compounds that mimic the scent of flowers. This attracts a wide range of rainforest pollinators that mistake the scent for a good snack. They will enter the pitcher in search of the source of the aroma and come in contact with sticky polysaccharides that coat the wings rendering them useless. The insects can't fly out and fall into the liquid to be digested. The lower pitchers of Nepenthes rafflesiana use a lining of wax crystals to trap terrestrial insects. It attracts mainly ants. When the ants enter the pitcher the wax crystals attach to the ant's feet preventing them from climbing out of the pitcher. It clings to the feet causing them to slip along the surface of the pitcher leading them to the liquid death below. Some Nepenthes are generalists and are happy to take whatever they can get in their traps, but remember competition for pollinators is fierce so some spices have become specialists. Nepenthes albomarginata has a band of white hairs just below the rim of its pitchers. These hairs are bait for termites. And this Nepenthes sure knows how to do it right. It can catch 20 termites per minute during a frenzied feast. Okay, now we're going to talk about what inspired me to report on Nepenthes for my podcast. Remember in the first episode when I said these plants fed on something unusual that gives a whole new twist on the term “potty mouth”? Well, here we go! Nepenthes rajah can digest mice and rats, but that's not what it's really shooting for when it attracts these animals. What is really wants is the rodents poop. Yep, that's right it wants the rodent to use its pitcher as a potty. The feces of these animals is high in nitrogen and much easier to digest than the body of an insect or mammal. Nepenthes lowii was the species that caught my eye when I was researching unusual plants. This plant has large pitchers that have evolved to attract mountain tree shrews that slip into the pitcher to lick a fatty substance that oozes from the lip of the pitcher. The shrew balance on the edge of the pitcher and as they eat they leave behind a deposit. There is some speculation that the substance emitted by the pitcher my have a laxative component that ensures the animal leaves behind a deposit before the depart. Nepenthes hemsleyana attracts a specific animal to roost in its pitchers so it can collect poo all day long. The lid of this plant's pitcher is shaped specifically to reflect bat echolocation frequencies. Bats such as Hardwicke's Wooly Bat use echolocation to find acceptable day roosts. They search for the right reflection from a plant structure to indicate an acceptable daytime roost. Nepenthes hemsleyana had evolved to reflect the correct frequency luring the bat in to roost throughout the day. The bat will poop as they sleep the day away and the plant will catch it in the pitcher. Talk about a Bed and Breakfast! Can you believe it! This plant is so amazing!! I can go on about Nepenthes diets, but I've run over time already. I'm so glad you joined me for this episode of Nepenthes because my fourth favorite thing, honestly my most favorite thing, about them is their diet. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change. Join me next week for another episode about Nepenthes.

Stepdads can really be jerks, right? This episode of SVU definitely agrees with you. Your stepdad might be a one-of-a-kind A-hole, but I'm guessing he didn't get you into an underground fight club run by the white cabbie cabal where their adolescent children or charges throw down instead of them. This being Season 12, the episode careens all over the place, but it ends up with Elliot case-blocking Hardwicke in a prime Fatherly Stabler moment.Music:Divorcio Suave - "Munchy Business"Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Nikki B, Diana R, Tony B, Zak B, Barry W, Sara L, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Isabel P, Christine L, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, Douglas P, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Kevin, Lily, Lucy, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, and Alison M - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Math Is Wonderful by Fred Hardwicke, MDMy life has found mathematics a subject with numerous areas open for exploration. The chapter titles are the areas covered - primes, Pythagoras, progressions, parabolas, polygons, and probabilities. There are so many discoveries hard to find elsewhere that it might indeed be called the "math road less traveled." In the book there is an abundance of numerical connections to history, astronomy, biology, chemistry, music, my life, and the Bible.The chapter on parabolas is absolutely amazing, with such concepts as the Seven Great Numbers, Highway 46, spiral staircases to infinity, the Triple Jump, Silver and Golden and Platinum Elevators, and binary stars - all in numbers. Mathematics is presented as a subject of great beauty and wonder.Fred Hardwicke taught medicine, hematology, oncology, and a little bit of math for 21 years in Lubbock, Texas at the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. He re-ceived the Internal Medicine Teacher of the Year Award in 2004. He currently lives with his wife, Beth, in Childress, Texas.https://www.amazon.com/dp/1963068440?ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_J081J6KC19SEEDSREV6E_1&ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_J081J6KC19SEEDSREV6E_1&social_share=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_J081J6KC19SEEDSREV6E_1&skipTwisterOG=2https://www.fredhardwicke.com/http://www.ParchmentGlobalPublishing.com http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/81524fhpar.mp3

Merlin has spent 60 years studying - and working to help - bats around the world and his photos and research have been featured in multiple National Geographic articles, the journal Science, and many other places. He founded and led Bat Conservation International for nearly 30 years, left BCI, then founded Merlin Tuttle's Bat Conservation in 2014 where he remains active. He is a true legend.In a fascinating chat we hear about his skill in training bats (and one bat's particular skill in training Merlin), and how he believes the secret to conservation success is from trying to win friends not battles. He also remembers that time he risked being eaten by a pride of lions so he could photograph a bat with a Mohican haircut. Notes: Merlin Tuttle's website has a wealth of bat information. Of course it does! We loved looking through Merlin's stunning collection of bat photographs and most of the species he mentioned can be found by searching in the MTBC Photo gallery. Here are pictures of the Chaerephon chapini in Zimbabwe, during the hunt for which he had to hide from Lions. Here is the little Hardwicke's Wooly Bat which demanded to be fed in Borneo (and this is the video Merlin mentioned). And here is a scorpion-hunting Pallid Bat from the USA. Many other links are here, including one to join Merlin Tuttle's Bat Conservation (MTBC) or donate to support the very important work they do.You might be interested in joining MTBC as a member to get updates, or joining Merlin in an upcoming bat research trip to Zambia's beautiful Kasanka National Park this November: a few spots are still available https://www.merlintuttle.org/bats-of-kasanka-national-park-mtbc-2022/.

In the last of our Royal Ascot 2022 previews, George Elek is once again joined by Andy Holding and Johnny to run through Saturday's card.Alfred Munnings is the current even money favourite for the Chesham Stakes but our panel think there's vulnerability in him based on the time figures he's run to date. The Jersey Stakes comes next at 3.05 and Andy has a "strong" fancy in this one with him not being blown away by the quality, he likes Alflaila for Owen Burrows, currently a best price of 8/1It's another short priced favourite in the Hardwicke with Hurricane Lane a best price of 4/5 at the time of writing, William Buick will be hoping for another winner as he hunts down Ryan Moore. Both Andy and Johnny think we're guaranteed to see a non-runner here which would affect each-way backers."Probably the race of the week" Andy describes the Platinum Jubilee as. James McDonald is onboard the Australian Home Affairs who was only narrowly beaten by Nature Strip recently, Andy isn't sure how much you can read into that run for the 15/8 favourite.The Wokingham Stakes looks a hugely open affair with the favourite Fresh currently at 9/1. Johnny think he's a solid bet to be in the frame with some bookies paying up to 8 places.The Golden Stakes handicap is the penultimate race of the meeting. Missed The Cut is the 7/2 favourite as things stand. "Leave this race to Godolphin" is Andy's advice.The week ends with the Queen Alexandra Stakes. With Trueshan likely to withdraw, Andy fancies a 14/1 shot as his bet of the week! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Bruce Millington is joined by Graeme Rodway and Rosie Margarson from the Racing Post to preview Friday and Saturday at Royal Ascot. The team start by looking at the Friday, with Meditate the favourite for Aidan O'Brien in the Albany Stakes. Inspiral is back following a layoff and she faces 1,000 Guineas winner Cachet in a fascinating Coronation Stakes on day four at Royal Ascot. Saturday starts with a short-priced favourite as Alfred Munnings bids to win the Chesham Stakes with Ryan Moore on board. Hurricane Lane is also odds-on on day five at Royal Ascot as he attempts to win the Hardwicke on his first appearance this season. Trainer Chris Waller is looking for his second win of the week as Home Affairs heads the market in the Platinum Jubilee Stakes - do the panel think he's too short in a 27-runner race? Along with individual race selections, the panel give us their NAPs for both Friday and Saturday. 00:00 - 11:00 Friday preview 11:27 - 24:31 Saturday preview 18+ #GambleAware
Dogtown and Z-Boys was a successful documentary when it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2001, and did great for itself in its theatrical release afterward. That success spurred Stacy Peralta, the director of the film and one of the Z-boy skateboarders featured in the doc, to write a fictional telling of the story to be made as a feature film. That script went through several director's hands – David Fincher and Fred Durst, specifically – before landing with Catherine Hardwicke. She had had great success a few years earlier with her debut film Thirteen (which we talked about on the show here). So how does this hold up as her sophomore effort? Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our Sports series with Hardwicke's 2005 film Lords of Dogtown. We talk about skateboarding, biopics, and more as it relates to Lords of Dogtown. We both recount our own beginnings with skateboards. Were we ever any good? No. But certainly they were foundational memories for us. That gives us a jumping off point to get into this film as we look at how our three central characters – Jay, Tony, and Stacy – find their connection to skateboarding in the 70s and turn it into a sensation. How does the story work for us? It's very much a biopic. That's taken both for the bad and the good. It tells the story about interesting characters, but the beats feel very standard and expected. Is there something Hardwicke could've done or is this the best that could've come from Peralta's script? And that's another point we discuss – can a biopic script written by one of the characters in the story every really be more than gentle with its story? This is a common complaint with many musician biopics these days because the featured figure(s) is (are) alive and producing, writing, or giving their blessing to the project. Can Peralta be objective? It doesn't feel that way. Still, the film is full of energy. That certainly feels like something Hardwicke brings to her early films. And the actors bring it as well. Emile Hirsch, John Robinson, Victor Rasuk, Heath Ledger – so many faces in this film that warrant calling out. Because they do tremendous work throughout the film, whether their scripted parts shine or not. In the end, though, it's hard to separate what's great in this film with the problems we have with the script. As strong as the performances and direction are, the story always feels a bit flat. But it's still interesting and entertaining. So check it out. It's worth looking at, and you can check another off your bucket list. Then tune in to this week's show!

A Confessional on-the-go! Rose Vineshank co-hosts as we discuss Creepy Pastas with Kate Hardwicke.
Our guests in this episode are two of the busiest staff members at the Australian Institute of Architects, Leanne Hardwicke and Tim Leslie. Leanne is the General Manager of Policy, Advocacy and Education at the Institute who works at a National level and Tim is a registered architect who works at the State level as the Victorian State Manager of the Institute. Together they share the important work the Institute does to place greater importance on the climate emergency and the representation of indigenous architects, the production of guidelines and research that all architects benefit from, and the advocacy for architects to local, state, and federal government.
Catherine Hardwicke had worked as a production designer for nearly two decades, crafting the look for such diverse films as I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, Tombstone, Tank Girl, and Three Kings, before shifting her focus to directing. It's not often the path people take, but clearly Hardwicke knew what she wanted and came at it with a unique story she co-wrote with Nikki Reed – her ‘surrogate daughter' as she describes her – about life as young teenage girls. The film Thirteen immediately caught attention because of how hard-hitting it was with depiction of thirteen-year-olds engaging in sexual behavior, doing drugs, and self harm through cutting. It also drew notice for how raw and realistic it was, and that intensity helped put Hardwicke on the map. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our Coming of Age Debuts series with Hardwicke's 2003 film Thirteen. Thirteen is a tough watch... but a good one. As fathers of daughters, this film pushes many of our buttons and makes us generally uncomfortable from start to finish. That being said, we can recognize the power in the dark places Hardwicke takes her characters. And she takes them to dark places. Evan Rachel Wood and Nikki Reed shine as the two teens. Wood plays the teen eager to gain popularity only to fall in with the wrong person who introduces her to life on the edge. Reed – who co-wrote the script with Hardwicke when she was only 13 years old! – carries the challenge of being the draw for Wood's character but also the manipulation, lies, and life struggling in a broken home. The two teenagers excel in their roles. Holly Hunter plays Wood's mother and depicts the desire for friendship with the challenges of parenting to a tee. She rightly deserved her Oscar nomination and in our eyes, likely should have won. What did we think of the dad though? We have a bit of an argument about how the script portrays him and if it's realistic or not. With unique camerawork, editing techniques, coloring, and more, Hardwicke more than shows herself capable to handle this story. It's a tough film but powerful and worth watching. We have a fantastic conversation about it so check it out then tune in. The Next Reel – when the movie ends, our conversation begins!

Join me as I talk with oncologist and author, Fred Hardwicke, MD, about his book The Puzzle of Gospel Harmony.
Born and raised in Baltimore, MD, Nia has been a writer since the day her mother first put a pencil in her hand. Although writing has always been Nia's passion, her mother's emphasis on education led Nia to become an elementary school teacher. She has taught children for more than twenty years and raised her own two children along the way. However, Nia's passion for storytelling cannot be quenched. After years of writing for national magazines, completing two anthologies of poetry, writing children's stories, drafting a novel, writing short stories, short films, and completing two feature film scripts, Nia made the bold move to Los Angeles in 2005, to pursue the dream of reaching global audiences with her writing. reated in 2006, the short film Temporary Loss of Power, which explores the human dynamic of gender, race, and power, was her first foray into filmmaking. Then, in 2007 Nia worked on a short sci-fi film, called F*ck you, Pay Me, with indie writer-director Chris Derrick. Since then, Nia has been writing, and planning projects for her own independent production company, Audaz Entertainment. In 2008, Nia received a surprise birthday present in the announcement of her being matched with her requested mentor, Catherine Hardwicke through the Women In Film Mentor Program. Since Ms. Hardwicke's film Thirteen, Nia has been following Catherine as a source of inspiration for her own filmmaking career. Under the banner of Audaz Entertainment, in April 2009, Nia hosted the 1st Annual Muslim Artists Expo in Baltimore, MD to feature the work of graphic artists, photographers, spoken word artists, and musicians. In the same month, Nia's script, Chrysalis, a feature-length, crime drama, was selected as a Quarter-Finalist in the 13th Annual Fade In Awards. It received high marks for the premise, structure, characterization, dialogue, and overall storytelling. That same year, Nia also worked as Associate Producer on the indie documentary, Deen Tight, a film that explores the world of Hip-Hop and Islam. Nia is currently shooting a documentary in both L.A. and her hometown, Baltimore, Maryland. Not Your Average tells the story of her venture into filmmaking as an African-American, Muslim Woman. Nia is currently in post-production of her original series, Vengeful, the first police detective series led by a Black woman, since 1974's Get Christie Love. Nia is also the mother of two college students with special needs, including her son with Autism. Embracing the storytelling passion and filmmaking vision of Nia Malika Dixon, the partners and executive staff of Audaz Entertainment have come together for the distinct purpose of creating quality, compelling, diverse & inclusive, motion pictures for worldwide exhibition. ––– Thank you so much for listening to the show!
