Good afternoon everyone and welcome to another edition of The Avid Reader. Today our guest is Dr. Kara Cooper. Dr. Cooper is a professor of Egyptian Art and Architecture at UCLA. She’s worked with National Geographic and the Discovery channel. And produced and appeared in a series you may have seen entitled Out Of Egypt which I believe is still available on Amazon and Netflix. Although she has published prolifically, we may know her best from her first general public book The Woman Who Would Be King: Hat Shep Sut’s Rise To Power. That was released in 2014. Her latest work is When Women Ruled The World, which is an strikingly accessible journey along the timeline of ancient Egypt, where we find, surprisingly, periods of time in which women ruled the old world. For a number of different reasons. Along the journey, Dr. Cooney highlights the comparison between the way women were treated in Egyptian history versus the manner in which they find the same treatment in modern society.

WELP, CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE WHO BET MONEY THAT IT WOULD BE CANNIBALISM YOU WIN AN EXTREMELY GRIM AND DEPRESSING EPISODE Jump in our Way-Back Machine and return with us to a simpler time, where we can revisit our old friends Kara Cooper, brighter indoor lighting, and Kane's good hair! Enjoy this brief flash of a more-or-less sane Octavia before everything falls to shit again and life is The Worst! Claire now bitterly regrets ever having uttered the words “hey wouldn’t it be dope if Abby and Octavia ever had a storyline together” I’M SORRY GUYS THIS ONE’S ON ME I PUT IT OUT IN THE UNIVERSE AND I CAN’T TAKE IT BACK NOW (. . . kudos to Propkru, though. We're never eating Jell-O again.) Meanwhile, in the future, Jason grants our wish to finally get all three Griffin ladies in the same room, though shit's pretty bleak over there too. There’s lots to love (Abby gets cured! Bellamy speaks Trig! Murphy gets a giant gun! Diyoza wants Kabby reunited as much as we do! Raven and Shaw kiss! Echo is in charge and it’s hot af!) and lots to furrow our brows at in mild puzzlement (if Clarke kills McCreary, aren’t all their problems basically over? Does Madi have Clarke’s consciousness in her head, meaning there are now effectively two Clarke minds in play?). Plus, Professor Erin does both “Robinson Crusoe” and “Paradise Lost”, Claire thinks everyone’s reading that final Kane/Diyoza scene wrong, and we have LOTS of thoughts about Wonkru cannibal ethics. All right, take a deep breath and let's dive in! Trust us, there's not enough vegetable broth in the WORLD to make this bleak and stomach-turning hour of television go down any easier.

Et Tu, Bro-té????? Welcome to our episode recap of “How We Get to Peace,” an episode that was far superior to its weirdly clunky title. But HOLY WORM EXPLOSIONS, BATMAN, what a ride! Apologies in advance that this one’s going up mostly unedited, because it was another weird schedule week, but we didn’t want to make you wait any longer for the chance to come flail with us about all the CRAZY SHIT THAT WENT DOWN. Kara Cooper gets the John-Hurt-in-“Alien” treatment, times a billion! McCreary is back to fuck shit up! Indra gets demoted! Kane is a godfather now! Echo and Raven are friends again! Emori is done being jerked around! Monty and Harper are PEACING OUT (literally)! Abby solves the medical mystery! Bellamy says “mama bear” out loud! Miller is kind of a dick! Vinson is kind of a bro! WORMS ARE EVERYWHERE! Teenage Diyoza used to make out under the bleachers! And Octavia finally gets outplayed at her own game when Big Brother does the one thing we all believed he’d never, ever do!

ARTHouse is a vibrant radio arts program showcasing Blue Mountains (Australia) based creative talent. ArtHouse is aired on Radio Blue Mountains and features hosted sessions on such diverse art forms as dance, costume, and crime fiction through to visual arts, textiles, photography, music, poetry and more. Each week a panel will discuss various themes such as art and resilience, how to source venues and apply for grants, how to sustain our creative community plus other relevant hot topics. The program airs every Thursday Night on RBM 89.1 from 6:00-8:00 pm.  In this regular segment, Kara Cooper of Mount Vic and Me interviews Lorna McKenzie of The Tailors Apprentice.

My friend Kara Cooper joins the podcast. She is a photographer who does all sorts of really great pictures: wedding pictures, professional head shots, nudes. Lots of nudes. In fact, she has a book of nudes! It has a happy ending! Kara’s book is actually really beautiful, she invited people to really open up and try doing something a little beyond what they were comfortable with. I really like her photos and still plan on using her for my tasteful nudes (you will find out why on the show). If you have a wedding, need a headshot or portrait, want pictures of yoga or, as mentioned before, a nude, she can absolutely help you at [karacooperphotography.com]. By this time, all of the sketches from Season 1 should be on YouTube now! I know that some of you prefer just hearing the sketches, and I totally understand! So, the YouTube page for Sketch Comedy Podcast Show is the place to go and do that! There are playlists for Season 1, Season 2, and I will finally be putting all of the content from the original Sketch Comedy Podcast Show as well! How can you get there? Go to YouTube and search for Sketch Comedy Podcast Show or visit the website [sketchcomedypodcastshow.com] and find the “YouTube” link at the top! They say that eyes are the cameras to the soul. Or windows. I’m not sure I really understand the statement, but I need to put something in this place so that it looks like I care or something…… oh yeah, cameras. They are great for capturing moments! Sometimes people are really, really good at taking pictures, and will do it for other people who are not so good at it. We call those people photographers! It’s a good thing we have taste-makers, because if we didn’t could you imagine how horrible photography would be? Imagine a world where ANYONE could have a camera on them at all times and be able to share their terrible photos to everyone. What a nightmare that would be. Every week I like to suggest a podcast to listen to after you are done with this one. This week I… man, it seems like I have been offering a lot of nostalgia lately, anyway… this week I suggest “Radio Max FM”. Why do I suggest “Radio Max FM”? Well, it’s a pretty slickly produced podcast that combines elements of good, old-fashioned radio, independent rock and hip-hop and comedy, this is a great place to scratch that itch! It’s a brand-new podcast, so it will be fun to see how it changes over time! Go to [maxfm.libsyn.com] to listen, subscribe and more! Rose City Comic Con was this last weekend, which meant that there were a lot of people dressed up like a lot of things in Portland. So, next week, I have nearly professional cos-player and fellow podcaster Edward Noil on the show to talk about dressing up and how it ain’t easy being green.

Mike Phirman is a fantastic songwriter of comedy music for kids (not kids music, HUGE distinction. Seriously). I have been a fan of Mike’s since I heard “American Dinosaur” and “Anything” with his band “Hard ’n Phirm” with Chris Hardwick, and saw him perform live here in Portland a couple of years ago with my oldest daughter (her first concert and she actually liked Mike more than headliner Jonathan Coulton, but don’t tell him that in case he is ever on this show). One of the things I really like about Mike is that he is really genuinely nice and was just so pleasant to talk to. Also, I surprise him at the end of the conversation, but he was a really great sport about it! Just to be clear, I was actually really nervous doing this recording, because I am kind of a big fan. Also, we recorded two sketches! The second one will have to wait until the end of the season, but there is something to look forward to! Make sure to check out Mike’s latest album, “The Very Last Songs I Will Ever Record (Part 1)” where you can get it on BandCamp for $5! ( http://music.mikephirman.com/album/the-very-last-songs-i-will-ever-record-part-1 ) you can also check out the amazing “Horses and Grasses” album he did with Chris Hardwick as “Hard ’n Phirm” ( https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/horses-and-grasses/id269730543 ) Do you like free money? I know you do, who doesn’t? How about a lot of free money? Look, I won my fantasy football league last year and yes, I’m using it to brag, but there is a much easier and less expensive way to make money… REVIEWS OF THIS PODCAST! And, not only am I planning on giving away money, we get to see who is actually the better fans… Apple or Google! How does all of this work? For the next week (that’s September 3rd to September 9th), for every review I get for this podcast on either Apple Podcasts or the Google Play store, I will add a dollar to a pot. At the end of the week, I will randomly pick a review from whichever side gets more reviews and send a gift card to that person for the amount of reviews that I get. Don’t fret, I’m planning on doing this multiple times and, if it is successful, I might just do it on a weekly basis! So share the links and let’s get some money flowing! If you are an Apple fan, go to: http://bit.ly/SCPSitunes If you are a Google fan, go to: http://bit.ly/SCPSgplay They descend from the heavens and awe us with their superior technology and bizarre mating habits, extraterrestrial beings (also known as aliens, but I want to make sure not to offend anyone, or thing, or in-between) will one day come and take their dominion over our planet. Sound bleak? It does now, because movies and media have all been doing a very good job of convincing us that aliens like to destroy buildings and do bizarre mating rituals. But in fact, if they were to really conquer the planet, aliens would target the one weapon that would finish us all… pop stars… then maybe do bizarre mating habits with them. Well, I don’t know if they will be great improvisors, but I can tell you that I mentioned winning my fantasy football title last year, and I had to add the hashtag #FootclanTitle because it was because of my listening to Andy, Mike and Jason of “The Fantasy Footballers” ( https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com ) that helped me make the right decisions for my draft, keep an eye on the waiver wire and, most importantly, kept me up to date AND entertained! These guys are great, give phenomenal advice and someday I even hope to get them on the show! If you are at all interested in fantasy football, or want to understand what all this crazy fantasy football hype is, this is a great place to start! I’m obviously very excited about this season of Sketch Comedy Podcast Show and another chance to win the coveted “Pattenburg” trophy again! Next week, in episode 32, I sit down with my friend Kara Cooper, a photographer that likes to take pictures of people with no clothes on and we discuss the decoration that I am going to be adding to my fantasy trophy.

Kara Cooper is the Chaplain for Lancaster University in Lancashire, England.  Kara and I graduated together from Duke in 2002.  The year after that we both accepted an appointment in the British Methodist Church.  Kara hasn't come back to the United States but is now an ordained clergy of the British Methodist Church and a British citizen.   Doing ministry overseas is an art.  In a more secular society with a national church, it is a lot different than ministry here in the "colonies."  Yet, it proves to be a great place to experience God still at work in the lives of people.  Kara shares some of her stories and experiences as the follower of Jesus who talks a little funny.
