Happy Halloween! It is time for a special themed episode of the Cut to the Chase: Podcast! The theme? Mass tort “horror stories”. Depo-Provera is the latest bone-chilling mass tort case that's scaring people left and right. Depo-Provera is a birth control injection linked to an increased risk of cranial meningiomas, or brain tumors.

It can bring you to tears.

Josie Belle Gore is only six years old when we meet her in 1908, yet her father has tied a rope around her waist and is lowering her into a dark well to retrieve a dead animal that is poisoning the water. The third daughter of a growing family, Josie has moved with her family from western Texas to Arizona, then eastward again, settling in the New Mexican desert region known as the Jornada del Muerto. Her father, a railroad engineer, spends much of his time away, and it is her mother who holds the family together through poverty, sickness, and drought. From an early age, Josie learns that her lot in life is to subsume her own interests to those of her family. Although she yearns to become a teacher, even mastering basic literacy is a challenge in a region where schools are few and far between, household chores never-ending, and such basic needs as food and water not always met. As her father falls prey to alcoholism, loses one job after another, and repeatedly uproots the family in search of a better future, Josie clings to the principles her mother has inculcated in her—until one day, she realizes that the price for tolerating that life has risen too high. Based on the life of the author's grandmother, Josie's story sounds grim, but the telling of it is not. Hauntingly beautiful in its evocation of the American Southwest and Northern Mexico, this novel will draw you in, even as it gives you a whole new appreciation of the hardships that many of our ancestors endured. Teresa H. Janssen, a former language and social studies teacher, writes, hikes, tends a small orchard, and is involved in several educational initiatives. The Ways of Water (She Writes Press, 2023) is her debut novel. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and three other novels. Her latest book—The Merchant's Tale, co-written with P.K. Adams—appeared in November 2023. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dear one —Your message arrived this morning as we were dragging the tree to the curb and packing suitcases in the trunk. Now at 35,000 feet, as is often the case when I am among the clouds, I find myself reflecting on your words. What you meant about feeling heavy-hearted and adrift, I understand. Feelings are rarely single-noted, and our mandate is to bear witness in this paradoxical season. Who has real answers? Reality is as it is and what we can do, palms turned upward, is ask what Love wants of us.I read how Bethlehem was closed for Christmas this year. Hauntingly, the Evangelical Lutheran Christmas Church placed its nativity scene beneath the rubble.A memory from more than a decade ago articulates itself more clearly to me now. I'm in the West Bank, among the limestone hills just South of Jerusalem, with the ostensible purpose of training mindfulness teachers who serve in refugee camps. A friend brings me to Bethlehem from Ramallah to visit the Church of the Nativity, built above the site where Jesus is believed to have been born. As we pass through checkpoints along the way, I reflect on how today everything seems so dangerously close here. But it must have seemed a great distance for a Jewish family from Nazareth, more than 70 miles from Bethlehem, to be summoned for a census two thousand years ago. For a woman so close to giving birth.My friend is Muslim and wraps her days in prayer. Our visit is her suggestion. After all, the Church of the Nativity's original structure was built in the 4th century, making it the oldest pilgrimage site in the Christian tradition.Admittedly, I agree to go in deference to her kindness. I don't identify as Christian; in fact, I'm less and less interested in any particular identity. Despite singing in the choir and serving as an acolyte throughout my childhood, I associate Christianity with secular tradition and a complicated historical inheritance.Meanwhile, over the years I've found my way to contemplative practice and the poetry of the mystics. Here's 12th century Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi speaking of the caravan of all religion —My heart wears all forms:For gazelles it is an open field,for monks a cloister.      It is a temple for idols,      and for pilgrims the Ka'ba.            It is the Torah's tablets            and the pages of the Quran.Love is the faith I follow.Whichever path Love's caravan takes,      that is my road and my religion.Dear, do you remember how the Upanishads describe the heart as hridaya guhā, a cave of hidden wonder? We've spoken of how one must step inside with a lowered head. How one's eyes must adjust to the dim, warm light.Of what this memory shows me now, of what it meant to descend the worn stone stairs and step into the grotto beneath the pews, to touch the inlaid silver star that millions have touched before , I can say only this: I felt an ancient peace.Do what you can to light your lamp this week between the years. Make simple gestures of reconciliation. Take heart wherever you can. I'll leave you for now with Rilke — anther mystic, another century, another adherent to the original religion of Love.God speaks to each of us as he makes us,then walks with us silently out of the night.These are the words we dimly hear:You, sent out beyond your recall,go to the limits of your longing.Embody me.Flare up like a flameand make big shadows I can move in.Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.Just keep going. No feeling is final.Don't let yourself lose me.Nearby is the country they call life.You will know it by its seriousness.Give me your hand.- Rainer Maria Rilke, Book of Hours, I 59, translated by Joanna Macy Get full access to The Guest House at shawnparell.substack.com/subscribe

It's Friday the 13th! Traditional, in the west, it's a day of bad luck and superstitions. In Asia, we have own beliefs and customs that spook us. While it may not be the number 13, the Chinese try to avoid the number 4 as it sounds like the mandarin word "death" or "to die". Taboos and superstitions; old wives tales or something more sinister? Today's episode features confessions from people who went around looking for trouble and got more than they bargained for.

Joanna Barnum's world is one where her brush creates the macabre, bringing to life Halloween iconography, emotions, and fantasy using hauntingly beautiful watercolors. Joanna was initially skeptical of watercolor, but fell in love with its chaotic and expressive qualities during art school. She was also influenced by Stephen Gammel's illustrations in “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.”   Watercolor's unpredictable nature has taught Joanna how to balance control and chaos. She likens watercolor to dancing – there's a plan, but she needs to leave room for the organic side of it. While some think that watercolors are only soft and pale, Joanna shows us how they can be vivid and bright.   Joanna loves to paint haunted houses. While some collectors see references to books and movies when they look at them, for her, it's a reflection of her love for old decaying buildings. Her art often represents layers of history, sometimes including past injustices. As she travels, she takes pictures of old houses to serve as inspiration for future works.   Joanna lives in Harford County, MD, with her husband Mike and dog Zephyr. She encourages listeners to go all in on whatever brings them joy, and reminds artists that they don't need permission to create what they want. Make your weirdo heart happy.  Travel Recommendations from Joanna:  Haunted Overload (New Hampshire): http://www.hauntedoverload.com/ Ledew Garden Glow (Maryland): https://ladewgardens.com/Event-Calendar/Events-at-Ladew/-Garden-Glow Westminster Church (Edgar Allan Poe's grave in Baltimore, Maryland): https://www.westminsterhall.org/  Visit Joanna's web site at: https://www.joannabarnum.com/  You'll see a wonderful gallery of her work and visit the Events section to see all her upcoming shows, including Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween and Dragon Con.

This episode contains: Around these parts, there's spooky and then there's spoopy. Steven says nope. Halloween can stick around year-round if you ask Ben. Ben found a house with severed limbs in the yard, but one was half a real rat. Steven's kids said no to Halloween decorations. They wanted Harvest Decorations. Stores are carrying skeletons for creatures without bones. Like octopuses. Whoops? And your welcome?: US embassies may have accidentally improved air quality. 2008 was great! Steven and Ben had great jobs and would NEVER get laid off. 2008 was also when Geometry Wars 2 came out. In 2008, US embassies installed air-quality monitors and tweeted amounts hourly. Can regulators be shunned to improve air-quality by the power of tweeting? Purely informational intervention from US to improve air-quality. Maybe the regulators should crack down on the quality of our podcast. https://arstechnica.com/science/2022/10/us-embassies-may-have-accidentally-improved-air-quality/ The D in DNA stands for Dubstep: Ancient viral DNA in human genome guards against infections. Viral DNA in our genomes are antivirals protecting cells against modern viruses. Steven correctly pronounces "endogenous!" Suppressyn has two S's and a Y, but the Y isn't where you think! Oh wait it is. Reverse experiments aren't just saying the word "experiments" backwards, Ben. Hauntingly futuristic: we say thank you to our DNA. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/10/221027154145.htm What is Dead may Never Die: Pebble, the OG smartwatch that may never die, updated to work with Pixel 7. Ben misses his Pebble. Recharging an Apple Watch every 2 days is TERRIBLE. The Apple Watch is a remarkable piece of tech, but if you want a WATCH... shrug. Pebble watches just got an update to support Android's 64-bit OS on Pixel 7. The Pebble Smartwatch: What is dead may never die. We have a story that only applies to those "rockin" the Pebble smartwatch. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/pebble-a-2013-smartwatch-updated-to-work-with-2022-pixel-7/ Science Fiction: Episodes 863 AND 864 of Star Trek on this week's podcast. Lower Decks: "The Stars At Night" are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas! Don't you need people to crew a starship to determine what good to do? How cool would it be if every California-class had a Texas-class escort? Evidently Jean-Luc Picard loves mummies. Shaxs finally got to eject his warp core! The M5 Multitronic Unit from TOS and the Texas-class AI are two peas in a pod. Badgey returned in a post-credit scene. If you wanted to start Star Trek: Prodigy on episode 11... you could but why? Ben recaps the Diviner's plan in Star Trek: Prodigy from months ago. The rest of Star Trek: Prodigy's first season has been compared to The Fugitive. Ben says Star Trek: Prodigy's 11th episode was rad. You should watch it. Tales of the Jedi: Ahsoka episodes are fun, Dooku episodes are incredible. Liam Neeson is back! Who deleted Camino from the archives? Now we know. What happened to Yaddle? Now we know. Will we ever see how EXACTLY Palpatine has returned? House of the Dragon is an amazing show about terrible people. Brothers named Arik and Erik? Man, screw this show. The first season of House of the Dragon was just setting up the upcoming game. Fallout's 25th anniversary is this year! Steven played it in High School! Steven reminisces about buying Fallout in EB Games in the mall back in the 90s.

There is much to be learned from stories, whether they feature ghosts, witches, or monsters, even when they scare us. It is the lessons learned in the face of darkness that make supernatural stories important for young readers. And, it is telling, that stories of ghosts and graveyards stay with us. They might cause us a bit of grief, but when we face them, we face ourselves, our fears, and our histories, and in confronting them we learn collaboration, problem-solving, empathy, and companionship. In this episode, we dredge up some Halloween spirit and examine our favorite graveyards and the ghosts that haunt them. J.A. White and Chantel Acevedo join the Queen of Tween Screams, Mary Downing Hahn to appreciate her supernatural classic, Wait Till Helen Comes. A self-proclaimed scaredy cat, Mary shares how the dysfunction of the family at the center of her book served to create an opening for a ghost to entice itself into a renewed existence. Mary, J.A., and Chantel unearth the dark secrets and histories of villains and ghastly beings to help readers understand that whatever haunts their nightmares just may hold an important lesson.

White believes the supernatural elements of Wait Till Helen Comes only add to the existing tension of the underlying family drama. [7:38] Mary shares how writing about a blended family adds conflict and makes her story relatable to young readers. [11:34] In The Curse of Spectacle Key, Chantel's young characters are encouraged to feel free from the pressures of growing up and that loving and being loved is enough. [16:30] J.A. White loves the idea of budding young authors identifying with the plight of Alex from Nightbooks, and Gravebooks. [19:46] In their books, Mary, Chantel, and J.A. all explore the lurking pasts of their villains and how that history shapes their fears and actions. [21:21] In The Curse at Spectacle Key, the main character Frank has a mission to break the curse of the island and expose the hidden history of orphaned ghosts. [25:27] Mary recalls the many different responses she has received about Wait Till Helen Comes from 1986 when supernatural books were a point of debate.

I think that is my favorite type of supernatural story.” — J.A.

"Hauntingly beautiful," "ride the lightning," and even famous quotes like "we're all mad here" are often used to positively describe mental illness. An "every cloud has a silver lining" mentality.  But is it true? Does mental illness have a positive side that is used to create things like incredible art and great literature? In this episode, our hosts push back against the idea that mental illness is anything other than a awful disease that doesn't contribute to a better life -- but keeps us from living our best ones.  This podcast is proudly sponsored by Betterhelp.
