Is money a tool of moral decay or a force for human liberation? Dante feared money would corrupt and damn us, placing bankers in the eighth circle of hell - just one above Lucifer. James Joyce saw it as a tool of freedom, and markets and trade as vital engines of connection and social mobility.In this special bonus episode recorded live in front of an audience at the FT Weekend Festival in London, hosts Gillian Tett and Robin Wigglesworth are joined by economist and author David McWilliams to explore humanity's complex, seductive relationship with finance. From 14th-century Florentine banking and the birth of zero in accounting to Joyce's Ulysses and modern central banking, they discuss how literature reveals why money animates human progress, and why trade remains humanity's ultimate alternative to war.Further reading:Money: A Story of Humanity (2024), by David McWilliamsLove listening to The Story of Money?

In the second episode of Editions, a podcast from Shakespeare and Company and Faber, literary director Adam Biles and Faber Editions curator Ella Griffiths are joined by novelist Megan Nolan to discuss Illusions by Ruth Rehmann, in a new translation by Rob Madole, the latest title in the Faber Editions imprint.First published in Germany in 1959 and lost to English-language readers for decades, the novel follows four employees of a vast West German corporation across a single weekend. Cinematic, fragmented, and seductively modernist, it is at once an intimate and hypnotic portrait of four inner lives and an incisive state-of-the-nation novel about West Germany's postwar "economic miracle" - and the illusions that sustain it.Our conversation covers Rehmann's place in the influential German postwar literary movement Gruppe 47, the novel's debts to and divergences from Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway and James Joyce's Ulysses, the way that the war haunts a generation trying to forget it, the mischievous omniscient window cleaner who watches over the story, and what it means for a woman writer to be faulted, as contemporary reviewers said of Rehmann, for "an excess of contemporaneity."Buy IllusionsUK: https://www.faber.co.uk/product/9780571396580-illusions-faber-editions/Rest of World: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/illusions-faber-editions Megan Nolan's novels Acts of Desperation and Ordinary Human Failings are also available from Shakespeare and Company, and your local independent bookstore.Sign up to Faber's Heritage Subscription, featuring all Faber Editions titles: Subscribers get a book in the post each month for just £9 alongside a curated email with exclusive extra content about the book and its author. https://tr.ee/DsDYp5Books & Authors DiscussedThe Tin Drum — Günter GrassMrs Dalloway — Virginia WoolfUlysses — James JoyceThe Forged Coupon — Leo TolstoyPerfection — Vincenzo LatronicoAmerican Psycho — Bret Easton EllisActs of Desperation — Megan NolanOrdinary Human Failings — Megan NolanFilms/TV Shows DiscussedJeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles — dir.

CONTENTS JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-27-2026.Anatol Lieven warns that foreign policy establishments in both the United States and Britain have embraced a dangerous militarism. He highlights how the Biden administration failed to rejoin the nuclear deal with Iran, seeking instead a harder bargain. Furthermore, Europe faces acute escalation risks over Ukraine; Russia has warned of retaliation against Britain for authorizing the use of Storm Shadow missiles inside Russian territory. Lieven cautions that British Prime Minister Burnham's domestic agenda could be destroyed if a stray British missile strikes a Russian civilian target, triggering a direct, retaliatory attack on British soil. (1)Peter Huessy argues that nuclear deterrence remains vital but requires continuous modernization of missiles, submarines, bombers, and command systems to match Russian and Chinese advancements. He explains that conventional defense fails against nuclear attacks in military war games. Huessy advocates for "counterforce" strategies—targeting an enemy's weapons and leadership rather than innocent civilian cities ("countervalue"). He also supports adding theater nuclear systems to deter Russia's "escalate to win" doctrine, which utilizes low-yield battlefield nuclear weapons to force a NATO stand-down. (2)Andrea Stricker discusses the concerning US-Saudi bilateral nuclear agreement, which triggers a 90-day congressional review. This pact opens the door to uranium enrichment on Saudi soil, setting a dangerous precedent that could spark a regional "domino effect." Additionally, Stricker highlights unresolved risks in Syria. Despite a US-brokered deal to turn over natural uranium metal, Syria's al-Qaeda-linked leadership intends to rebuild its civil nuclear program. She urges the US to enforce the complete removal of all nuclear material from Syria rather than giving extremists a pass. (3)Mary Anastasia O'Grady explains how the US is aggressively targeting Cuban regime elites by freezing assets and revoking visas. To facilitate the regime's collapse, O'Grady stresses that the US must present a viable post-collapse plan for "Day Zero" to avoid chaos, bloodshed, or oligarchic asset-grabbing. She advocates for securing property rights to encourage external investments and suggests using multilateral peacekeepers to maintain order. She supports a transitional board of Cuban-Americans and Americans to manage investments and prevent former military elites from seizing privatized state assets. (4)Conrad Black analyzes the impending trade dispute between Canada and the United States, labeled "the dumbest trade war ever." President Trump's comments describing Canada as a "51st state" and calling the Prime Minister "governor" have sparked deep resentment across Canada. Prime Minister Carney has ended negotiations and threatened retaliatory tariffs, securing tentative public support. However, the political opposition is demanding that Carney publish the underlying negotiation documents and recall parliament to build an all-party policy. Black argues this represents a moment of great risk but also a Churchillian opportunity. (5)Jane Rogoyska explores the history of Paris's Hôtel Lutetia, which served as a haven for fleeing Weimar intellectuals before becoming a Nazi military intelligence headquarters in 1940. Rogoyska traces waves of refugees fleeing Nazi persecution, including writers Heinrich Mann and Lion Feuchtwanger. These figures struggled to warn an indifferent Europe about the dangers of fascism. Despite personal tragedies and bureaucratic challenges, literary giants like James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, and Arthur Koestler frequented the hotel, carrying poison just in case they were captured. (6)Evan Ellis details how an unprecedented "super El Niño" is battering the Americas, causing floods in Peru and severe droughts affecting the Panama Canal. He outlines political developments, including Chile's struggle to finance aging copper mining infrastructure despite high global prices. In Venezuela, the "Rodrigato" gang leadership continues to slow-walk democratic reforms while benefiting from US-supervised oil sales. Colombia's new conservative president, de la Espriella, has prioritized security and pro-business reforms. Finally, in Panama, the US is expanding security efforts to counter persistent Chinese commercial and diplomatic encirclement. (7)

Riesci a leggere un libro in italiano? E soprattutto… fino a che livello riesci ad arrivare? In questo articolo lo scopri con un test di lettura completo, dal livello A1 al livello C2, costruito su frasi vere prese da sei capolavori della letteratura italiana: Pinocchio, Cuore, Il fu Mattia Pascal, I Malavoglia, La coscienza di Zeno e I promessi sposi. Alla fine saprai esattamente qual è il tuo livello di lettura, e conoscerai anche qualche segreto sui libri più famosi d'Italia. Il Grande Test dei Classici Italiani da Pinocchio ai Promessi Sposi Le regole sono semplicissime. Per ogni livello troverai un brano di uno dei sei classici, seguito da due domande: una di grammatica e una di vocabolario. Un livello è "superato" se rispondi correttamente ad almeno una domanda su due. Il tuo livello di lettura è l'ultimo livello che riesci a superare. Se fai due su due… complimenti, livello superato a pieni voti! Mi raccomando: niente dizionario e niente traduttore, altrimenti il test non vale. Prima di iniziare, puoi anche dare un'occhiata alla nostra guida sui libri italiani da leggere. Livello A1 — "Le Avventure di Pinocchio" di Carlo Collodi (1883) Cominciamo con il libro italiano più tradotto al mondo: Pinocchio! Piccola curiosità: "Collodi" non era il vero cognome dell'autore. Lui si chiamava Carlo Lorenzini, ma scelse come nome d'arte il nome del paese toscano della sua mamma: Collodi, appunto. Ecco l'inizio del libro, uno degli inizi più famosi di tutta la letteratura: «C'era una volta… — Un re! — diranno subito i miei piccoli lettori. No, ragazzi, avete sbagliato. C'era una volta un pezzo di legno.» Un consiglio prima delle domande: al livello A1 non serve capire ogni parola! Per rispondere ti bastano quelle che conosci. Ah, e "diranno" è il verbo DIRE al futuro semplice: un tempo che si studia al livello A2, quindi niente panico. Domande del Livello A1 Grammatica: nel testo c'è "avete sbagliato". Qual è l'infinito di questo verbo? Vocabolario: che cos'è il "legno"? A) un animale del bosco B) il materiale degli alberi: serve per fare tavoli e sedie C) un tipo di pane Soluzioni del Livello A1 L'infinito è SBAGLIARE. "Avete sbagliato" è un passato prossimo: verbo AVERE al presente + participio passato (sbagliato). E il legno è ovviamente la risposta B: il materiale degli alberi. Infatti Pinocchio è proprio un burattino fatto di legno. Livello A2 — "Cuore" di Edmondo De Amicis (1886) Saliamo di livello con Cuore, il diario di un bambino di Torino, Enrico, che racconta un anno di scuola. Questo libro ha fatto piangere intere generazioni di italiani: ancora oggi, quando una storia è molto commovente e sentimentale, diciamo che è "da libro Cuore"! «Oggi primo giorno di scuola. Passarono come un sogno quei tre mesi di vacanza in campagna! Mia madre mi condusse questa mattina alla Sezione Baretti a farmi inscrivere per la terza elementare: io pensavo alla campagna e andavo di mala voglia.» Prima delle domande, una nota importante: hai visto "passarono" e "condusse"? Sono al passato remoto, un tempo che troverai spessissimo nei libri. Per ora ti basta riconoscere che è un passato: "passarono" = "sono passati", "condusse" = "ha accompagnato". "Inscrivere" è semplicemente la forma antica di "iscrivere". Ultima cosa: "andare di mala voglia" significa andare malvolentieri, senza voglia. Tieni a mente questa espressione: tra poco tornerà utile! Domande del Livello A2 Grammatica: nel testo c'è "QUEI tre mesi". Perché si dice "quei" e non "quelli" o "quegli"? Vocabolario: che cos'è la "campagna"? A) il contrario della città: un posto con campi, alberi e animali B) un tipo di scuola C) una stagione dell'anno Soluzioni del Livello A2 Il dimostrativo QUELLO, davanti a un nome, si comporta esattamente come l'articolo determinativo. Ecco lo schema: ArticoloForma di QUELLOEsempioilquelquel libroloquelloquello studentel' (maschile)quell'quell'amicola / l' (femminile)quella / quell'quella casa / quell'amicaiqueiquei mesigliquegliquegli amicilequellequelle case Quindi: "mesi" vuole l'articolo "i" → QUEI mesi! La campagna, invece, è la risposta A. Attenzione però: in italiano esiste anche la "campagna elettorale" o "pubblicitaria" — come l'inglese "campaign" —, ma qui Enrico parla proprio di prati, alberi e aria pulita. Livello B1 — "Il Fu Mattia Pascal" di Luigi Pirandello (1904) Ora si fa interessante! Luigi Pirandello, premio Nobel per la letteratura nel 1934, ci racconta la storia di Mattia Pascal, un uomo che… viene creduto morto da tutti! "Il fu", infatti, è un'espressione burocratica che si usa per le persone defunte: "il fu Mattia Pascal" significa "il defunto Mattia Pascal". E lui, invece di correggere l'errore, ne approfitta per cominciare una nuova vita con una nuova identità. «Una delle poche cose, anzi forse la sola ch'io sapessi di certo era questa: che mi chiamavo Mattia Pascal. E me ne approfittavo.» Domande del Livello B1 Grammatica: "mi chiamavo Mattia Pascal": che tipo di verbo è "chiamarsi"? E perché qui è all'imperfetto e non al passato prossimo? Vocabolario: "approfittarsi di qualcosa" significa: A) dimenticare qualcosa B) trarre vantaggio da qualcosa C) avere paura di qualcosa Soluzioni del Livello B1 "Chiamarsi" è un verbo riflessivo.Qui è all'imperfetto, "mi chiamavo", perché non indica un'azione conclusa, ma uno stato che durava nel tempo. Per gli stati e le descrizioni nel passato si usa l'imperfetto; per le azioni concluse, il passato prossimo. Confronta: FraseTempoPerché"Da bambino abitavo a Roma"imperfettoStato / descrizione nel passato"Nel 2010 mi sono trasferito a Milano"passato prossimoAzione conclusa in un momento preciso "Approfittarsi", risposta B, significa trarre vantaggio e si costruisce con la preposizione DI: "approfittarsi DI qualcosa". È proprio per questo che nel testo trovi "me NE approfittavo": quel piccolo NE sostituisce "di questo"… segnatelo, perché al livello C1 il NE tornerà da protagonista! Ultimo bonus per i più curiosi: "ch'io sapessi" è un congiuntivo imperfetto, e "ch'io" è l'elisione di "che io". Livello B2 — "I Malavoglia" di Giovanni Verga (1881) Voliamo in Sicilia con Giovanni Verga e il suo capolavoro del verismo: la storia di una famiglia di pescatori di Aci Trezza. Curiosità deliziosa: il vero cognome della famiglia è Toscano, ma tutti li chiamano "Malavoglia" — che letteralmente significherebbe "poca voglia di lavorare" — anche se in realtà sono dei grandissimi lavoratori! In Sicilia questo soprannome di famiglia, spesso ironico, si chiama "'ngiuria". E "mala voglia" ti ricorda qualcosa? Esatto: proprio come Enrico di Cuore, che andava a scuola "di mala voglia". «Un tempo i Malavoglia erano stati numerosi come i sassi della strada vecchia di Trezza; ce n'erano persino ad Ognina, e ad Aci Castello, tutti buona e brava gente di mare, proprio all'opposto di quel che sembrava dal nomignolo, come dev'essere.» Domande del Livello B2 Grammatica: "proprio all'opposto di QUEL CHE sembrava dal nomignolo". Che cosa significa "quel che"? E con quali altre espressioni possiamo sostituirlo? Vocabolario: che cos'è un "nomignolo"? A) un soprannome B) un documento d'identità C) un piccolo insulto Soluzioni del Livello B2 "Quel che" significa "quello che", cioè "ciò che", "la cosa che". Si chiama pronome relativo doppio, perché unisce due elementi in una sola espressione: un dimostrativo (quello) + il relativo (che). Puoi consultare la guida completa sui pronomi relativi per approfondire. Nel testo: "all'opposto di quel che sembrava dal nomignolo" = "il contrario della cosa che il soprannome faceva pensare". Altri esempi: "Non capisco quello che dici." "Ciò che conta è la salute." E già che ci siamo, due bonus: "erano stati" è un trapassato prossimo, per un'azione anteriore a un altro momento del passato; e "ce n'erano" nasconde la combinazione CI + NE ("lì c'erano alcuni di loro"). Il "nomignolo", risposta A, è un soprannome, spesso affettuoso o scherzoso: viene da "nome" più il suffisso "-ignolo". Livello C1 — "La Coscienza di Zeno" di Italo Svevo (1923) Livello C1: entriamo nella mente di Zeno Cosini, l'uomo dell'"ultima sigaretta". Zeno vuole smettere di fumare e scrive dappertutto la data della sua "ultima sigaretta"… peccato che di "ultime sigarette" ne fumi centinaia. Praticamente il nostro "da lunedì mi metto a dieta". Curiosità incredibile: Italo Svevo è uno pseudonimo — il vero nome era Ettore Schmitz — e il suo insegnante privato d'inglese a Trieste era… James Joyce! Sì, proprio l'autore dell'Ulisse: i due diventarono amici e Joyce aiutò a far conoscere il romanzo in Europa. «Vedere la mia infanzia? Più di dieci lustri me ne separano e i miei occhi presbiti forse potrebbero arrivarci se la luce che ancora ne riverbera non fosse tagliata da ostacoli d'ogni genere, vere alte montagne: i miei anni e qualche mia ora.» Domande del Livello C1 Grammatica: nel brano ci sono due particelle NE: "me NE separano" e "la luce che ancora NE riverbera". Che cosa sostituiscono? Vocabolario: quanti anni sono "dieci lustri"? Soluzioni del Livello C1 Tutte e due le particelle NE sostituiscono la stessa cosa: la mia infanzia! "Più di dieci lustri me NE separano" = "mi separano DA essa" (separare DA qualcosa); "la luce che ancora NE riverbera" = "la luce che ancora riverbera DA essa". Ti ricordi il piccolo NE di Pirandello, "me ne approfittavo", che sostituiva "DI + qualcosa"? Ecco il salto di qualità: il NE può sostituire anche i complementi con DA. E non è finita: anche "arrivarCI" si riferisce all'infanzia ("arrivare A essa"). Tutta la frase ruota intorno a una parola che Svevo nomina una sola volta, all'inizio. Per approfondire, puoi consultare la guida sulle particelle CI e NE. Bonus per il ripasso: "potrebbero arrivarci SE la luce non FOS

The young James Joyce (1882–1941) was forged in the smithy of Irish political controversies, and he took into his European exile a depth of political insight unrivalled among his fellow modernists. In this biography of Joyce in his youth and early exile James Joyce: A Political Life (Princeton UP, 2026), acclaimed Irish historian and biographer Frank Callanan reveals a Joyce who is markedly more politically conscious, informed and complex than the Joyce of Richard Ellmann's classic account. Written in a sparkling style and rich with historical insights, Callanan's deeply researched biography is the first sustained account of how Joyce's Irish and European political and cultural context shaped his life, thought, and writings.Joyce was eight years old in 1890 when the O'Shea divorce scandal tore Irish nationalism apart, leading to the split in the Irish Parliamentary Party, the death of nationalist leader Charles Stewart Parnell, and a long, bitter period dominated by the anti-Parnellites. This was the Ireland that Joyce grew up in and rebelled against, and which determined his literary direction. Callanan uncovers a Joyce who was a highly original and dissenting Irish nationalist, who refused to avow or vaunt his nationalism and whose understanding was refined by the experience of living in multicultural Trieste with its fraught ethnic politics and differing models of statehood. Callanan's Joyce is as heroic as Ellmann's defiantly modernistic artist but in a more interesting way—a writer who didn't lack political conviction but whose views didn't yield to the expectations of his time.Energizing, witty, profound, and elegant, James Joyce: A Political Life is a magisterial biography that will transform how readers look at Joyce and his politics. Frank Callanan (1956–2021) was an Irish barrister and historian. His books include The Parnell Split, 1890–91, a narrative of the last year of Parnell's life, and T. M. Healy, a biography of Parnell's principal adversary in the Split. He wrote the entries on Parnell, Healy, John Dillon and Conor Cruise O'Brien for the Dictionary of Irish Biography and edited The Literary and Historical Society 1955–2005, a history of the debating society of University College Dublin, to which James Joyce belonged. He also wrote and produced, with Ruán Magan, the 2022 documentary 100 Years of Ulysses. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

Callanan uncovers a Joyce who was a highly original and dissenting Irish nationalist, who refused to avow or vaunt his nationalism and whose understanding was refined by the experience of living in multicultural Trieste with its fraught ethnic politics and differing models of statehood. Callanan's Joyce is as heroic as Ellmann's defiantly modernistic artist but in a more interesting way—a writer who didn't lack political conviction but whose views didn't yield to the expectations of his time.Energizing, witty, profound, and elegant, James Joyce: A Political Life is a magisterial biography that will transform how readers look at Joyce and his politics.

Angelo Petrella"La valigia perduta di Hemingway"Neri Pozza Editorewww.neripozza.itParigi, 1929. È un mattino di una primavera letargica e insolitamente fredda quello in cui il giovane Marcel, agente semplice di polizia e aspirante scrittore, è costretto a interrompere la sua ronda. Le grida di una donna che provengono da un vecchio palazzo popolare non possono essere ignorate e lo zelante novellino, insieme al suo collega, deve intervenire. Ma una volta sedata la lite furibonda tra un uomo e la sua cocotte, qualcosa trattiene Marcel: un gatto che gratta contro una porta chiusa e un odore dolciastro che filtra dalla soglia. Dietro quella porta, li accolgono una musica jazz che suona a vuoto e il corpo senza vita di una donna. Per i piani alti, il caso andrebbe archiviato come suicidio, anche se per Marcel troppe sono le incongruenze, troppo poco credibile la lettera d'addio, per tacere del volto esangue e magnetico di quella donna che gli chiede giustizia. Deciso a indagare da solo, si ritrova invischiato nella Parigi pulsante e scapestrata – tra atelier fumosi e caffè letterari, spettacoli sabotati dai surrealisti e lunghe notti per familiarizzare con le anime belle e inquiete di Man Ray e James Joyce, Kiki de Montparnasse e Henry Miller, Luis Buñuel e Zelda Fitzgerald. E poi c'è Ernest Hemingway, coi suoi baffoni, il viso bonario e lo sguardo indecifrabile, che ha mentito sul suo rapporto con la vittima: l'indiziato perfetto, se non fosse per quell'aura da scrittore affermato che colpisce Marcel proprio nel suo punto debole. Mentre la città danza sull'orlo degli anni Trenta ignara della catastrofe incombente, Marcel capisce che quello che sta seguendo è solo un filo nella trama di una ossessione letale. E che i nostri miti possono nascondere segreti oscuri, punti ciechi che non siamo disposti a illuminare.Gli anni cupi stavano per arrivare, a presentare il conto di tutta quella gioia di vivere nell'incoscienza del futuro, tra fiumi di alcol e scazzottate notturne. Avrei passato anch'io, come tutti, i miei anni di fughe, miseria e incontri clandestini. Avrei atteso l'alba della grande vittoria, le speranze di un nuovo inizio, e il premio Nobel conferito a Hem alla fine di una carriera lunga e produttiva. Ma quella mattina, seduto al freddo sui gradini di Montmartre, non avevo alcuna idea di ciò che mi attendeva.Angelo Petrella è nato a Napoli nel 1978. Scrittore, sceneggiatore e traduttore, ha pubblicato tra gli altri i romanzi Cane rabbioso, Pompei. L'incubo e il risveglio, Le api randage, La fine dei fagioli e La città perfetta, Fragile è la notte, La notte non esiste, tradotti anche in Francia. Lavora per il cinema e la tv, firmando soggetti e sceneggiature per film o serie televisive tra cui I bastardi di Pizzofalcone, Mare fuori, Resta con me, La rosa dell'Istria, Noi del Rione Sanità e Il commissario Ricciardi.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

This week, Hoffman starts the program with a unique dvar Torah, tying together the new blockbuster "The Odyssey" with James Joyce's "Ulysses" and antisemitism in Ireland. Goes well with white fish. Then we turn to the main event: "Reading Lolita in Tehran," which was directed by Israeli filmmaker Eran Riklis and is currently playing in select cinemas. Labeled "a memoir in books," the film is based on the bestselling autobiography by author Azar Nafisi, published in 2003. The film is divided into chapters based on famous literature, including "The Great Gatsby," "Daisy Miller," and "Pride and Prejudice." It stars Golshifteh Farahani (known from a Hoffman favorite, "Paterson"), Zar Amir Ebrahimi, Mina Kavani and Israeli mega-star entertainer Rita.

“In silent screams and wildest dreams, I never dreamed of this. This love is good. This love is bad. This love is alive back from the dead.” This week we're setting sail on one of history's greatest epics, Homer's The Odyssey, and asking a very important question... did Taylor Swift write it? (We're mostly joking. Mostly.) In this Show & Tell episode, we each make the case for a Taylor Swift song that illuminates a different facet of the Odyssey, from Penelope's 20-year vigil to Odysseus weeping on a gorgeous island, to the sirens, the wine-dark sea, and a very significant scar. Along the way, the hosts dig into questions of translation and interpretation — particularly the significance of Emily Wilson's landmark female translation of the text — discuss the role of Athena in the story of the epic, and geek out about the archery contest that shows up in both the Odyssey and two Indian epics. Plus: the upcoming Christopher Nolan adaptation, the musical Epic by Jorge Rivera, Madeline Miller's Circe, and why All Too Well (10 Minute Version) might just be Taylor's own Odyssey.   Subscribe for free to get episode updates or upgrade to paid to get our After School premium content: aptaylorswift.substack.com/subscribe.

In this week's podcast Phelim gives us a sample of his important piece that was just published in the Wall Street Journal (linked below) about Ireland's descent into antisemitism and how author James Joyce predicted this 100 years ago. We also look at the impact Phelim's story has made and the vile antisemitic abuse he has received.In a related matter you may have seen there were riots in Ireland recently. The truth is Ireland may not like Jews but the elites really like to import head-chopping immigrants. We bring you the list of recent attempted beheadings in Ireland. Yes - that is a real sentence. We also bring the details on how Ireland is learning that Diversity is Not Our Strength. We didn't want to become a podcast about anti-semitism but somehow we're among the few podcasts that expose it. This week we reveal more from the poison Ivy League schools and a Cornell brat who turned down an internship because he's “not interested in working for Jews.” Our elite universities are fostering the ignorant as well as the bigoted as one crazy headline reveals an illiteracy problem at Berkeley! And so-called documentary film maker Josh Fox is lying again - of course he is. You knew him from lying about fracking (he's the liar behind the fake documentary GasLand). Guess what his latest cause is now. This week we ask: why is HBO allowing such obvious lies to go out on air? (Because they hate America?) Speaking of fiction disguised as fact, NPR's Fake News show All Things Considered does it again. This time they allowed a contributor to state, unchallenged, that America has not changed or improved since the racial segregation of the 60s. It seems on NPR you can lie about anything as long as you blame Trump. This week we bring you more crazy headlines courtesy of Crazy Canada. Watch this week to see where trillionaire envy meets “respectable” news. Elon Musk Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.And more, much more than this. Last weekend we saw our friend - the amazing Robert Davi - sing the great American Song Book in Los Angeles. Robert is multi-talented. You might know him as an actor from movies such as Die Hard and The Goonies. Of course he was the wonderful Director on the My Son Hunter movie - exposing the corruption of the Biden crime family. You can see the full My Son Hunter movie through the link below. And on the show we have a sample of his wonderful show.

This week on The Literary Life we begin revisiting a series from our "Summer of the Short Story" that originally aired way back in Season 1 of the podcast! Today we return to Episode 11, in which Angelina and Cindy enjoyed a discussion of the short story "Araby" by James Joyce. Delving into "Araby," Angelina talks about the history and development of the short story form. Cindy gives a little of her own background with reading James Joyce and why she loves his short stories. Angelina and Cindy also discuss the essential "Irishness" of this story and all the tales in The Dubliners. Angelina walks us through the story, highlighting the kinds of questions and things we should look for when reading closely. Themes discussed in this story include: blindness and sight, light and darkness, romanticism, religious devotion, the search for truth, money, courtly love, and the knight's quest. If you want to find replays of the 2019 Back to School online conference referenced in this episode, you can purchase them in Cindy's shop at MorningTimeforMoms.com.

Marilyn Monroe was the ultimate bombshell. This week she would have turned 100 years old, but she’s still the iconic sex symbol of mid 20th century Hollywood. Despite her carefully crafted dumb blonde persona, she was also wildly intelligent. She had a library filled with books by authors like James Joyce and Dostoevsky.

Kyle Scheele went from 17 TikTok followers to a million in 25 hours — not because he had a strategy, but because he finally stopped waiting for the right time and posted the video. In Part 2, he and Dwayne walk through the five things every idea needs to make it into the world, why AI is a sycophancy machine that will confidently tell you exactly what you want to hear, and why creativity is a team sport — and always has been. In Part 2 of this episode: The five things every idea needs — a chance, a home, a time and place, a bodyguard, and a crew — and the specific, practical way each one applies inside a business or organization Why Kyle went from 17 followers to a million on TikTok in 25 hours: a one-minute video about photoshopping his dad's tilted head in a family portrait, and the James Joyce principle that explains why the most particular stories become the most universal The chemical company story: a PhD chemist had known for years that her company's product would work perfectly in another industry — and never said anything, because no one asked Why AI is good at the "I" and the "A" of the idea cycle (inspiration and action) but can't do discovery or evolution — because those require taste, distaste, and skin in the game that no algorithm has How fear of running out of money drove Kyle's entire entrepreneurial career — and why that fear, managed well, doesn't make you play small, it makes you play smart.

You are not designed to do any of this stuff on your own, and even if you did, what would be the point of it all?” - Kyle Scheele “ On my third video, I went from 17 followers to a million followers, and that changed the course of my business, my trajectory, my life. It opened so many doors for me, and that all happened off a video that I almost didn't post because I almost didn't post any of them because I was waiting for the right time and the right place. “ - Kyle Scheele “ Give everyone notebooks on your team. Just give them a pocket notebook and go, "Hey, here's the things I want you to start looking for. This week, here's a focus.” - Kyle Scheele “ The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
