We wanted to do at least two shows a year with an annual update in January and a mid-year review in July. Well, it is October and we slacked hard on the mid-year review, but we're doing it now! Kate Thompson returns to the show for the first time since early 2022. We learn what's been going on with her and an update after her 2022 car accident and major injury to her foot and ankle. On the social media front, we talk about the current state of Twitter/X and how after the major changes (paid blue check marks, controversy, etc.) it went from being our most reliable source of web traffic to our least reliable. The important lesson is to diversify your social media strategy because you never know when a platform may collapse, change policies, or get banned (like TikTok may in 2025). We made a big announcement regarding our project for next year. Stadium Scene has had great success live streaming iRacing Esports events that we are full-on developing our own Esports sanctioning body/league. We'll be finishing up development on a Rocket League series featuring a regular season and playoff format in early 2025. Outside of that, it's general shenanigans and catch-up since this is the first time the three of us have been together on a show since Ralph joined the organization. Thank you again for your ongoing support of Stadium Scene and we look forward to serving you with new content for the rest of 2024 and beyond!

Send us a Text Message.The BBC's period drama “Call the Midwife” made an eccentric, lovable community of nuns and nurses famous the world over. But what of the formidable East End mothers whose babies they delivered? Join me, Kate Thompson and Smithsonian historian Alan Capps as we delve deep into the social history of some truly remarkable women.During the 20th century, London's history-rich East End, in common with all working-class communities, was a fiercely matriarchal society. Women in aprons and button-up boots were the beating heart of the tenement neighborhoods. It was the matriarchs—or so-called “aunties”—who ruled the sooty cobblestone streets, kept the children fed, birthed the babies when there was no midwife to call, and laid out the dead.I reveal how these often-overlooked working-class mothers informally but powerfully led their communities and the ways in which they contributed the to the diverse economic, political, and cultural shaping of the East End. And as this May marks 83 years since the end of the Blitz, I celebrate the astonishing ingenuity, resilience, and strength of the East End women who faced the horrors of war in their own neighborhood streets.We also discuss the importance of documenting social histories and how I brought the stories of these unrecognized women into the spotlight. I hope you enjoy. Thank you to our media partner: Family History Zone – a website covering archives, history and genealogy.

Lone Wolf by Greg Hurwitz  Once a black book government assassin known as Orphan X, Evan Smoak left the program, went deep underground, and reinvented himself as someone who will go anywhere, and risk everything to help the truly desperate who have nowhere else to turn. Since then, Evan has fought international crime syndicates and drug cartels, faced down the most powerful men in the world and even brought down a President. Struggling with an unexpected personal crisis, Evan goes back to the very basics of his mission - and this time, the truly desperate is a little girl who wants him to find her missing dog.    The Wartime Book Club by Kate Thompson  From enchanting cliff tops and white sandy bays to the pretty cobbled streets of St Helier, Jersey is known as the land of milk and honey. But for best friends Bea Rose (the local postwoman) and Grace Le Motte (who works in the island's only library) it becomes the frontline to everyday resistance when their beloved island is occupied by German forces in 1940.    LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anna O by Matthew Blake. A psychological thriller in the vein of things like Gone Girl- Anna O is found unconscious next to the bodies of her murdered friends and it's believed she killed them while sleepwalking. She enters a state known as “resignation syndrome” and stays asleep for the next four years, which is obviously of interest to both the medical world, the police and the victims' families. The government needs her conscious to stand trial and ask a guy who's both a forensic psychologist and sleep specialist to wake her up. It's an extremely risky process as it turns out that before this event happened, Anna was investigating a possible connection between some murders and a government entity who, if they're implicated, might just add an extremely dangerous dimension to this whole affair. It's the kind of book that is likely to be picked up by a lot of readers and spark a lot of debate.  The Wartime Bookclub by Kate Thompson. Set on the Channel Island of Jersey during the German Occupation in WW2, in a place where the Nazis are firmly in control, the small population finds ways to rebel and show resistance. The library becomes the centre of town for many, with young Grace making sure that books and reading are still available and, despite an increasing number of banned books making the Nazis' list, establishes a bookclub which helps protect the heart of the community. Her friend Bea works for the postal service where she manages to intercept letters sent by would be collaborators to the authorities. Against a background of ordinary people trying to get on with their lives in such awful circumstances, and based on real historical events, this is a gentle insight into an extraordinary time.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jennifer Check and Anita “Needy” Lesnicky are best friends living in the town of Devil's Kettle, best known for its waterfall and high school football team.  When Jennifer suggests she and Needy step out to see a band, Low Shoulder, at the local roadhouse, Melody Lane, Needy's reluctant.  She's rather spend the night with Chip, her boyfriend.  But Jennifer's nothing if not persuasive. Upon arriving at Melody Lane, it's clear the band is a bunch of locals posing as hipsters from the city.  But Jennifer's entranced by the lead singer, Nikolai, who she finds “salty,” and as the set heats up, so does Melody Lane.  A fire soon engulfs the bar, and after escaping, Jennifer and Needy are beckoned to the band's van.  Jennifer succumbs, but Needy runs home, only to find Jennifer in her kitchen, beaten, bloody, and gorging herself on Boston Market chicken.  What's happened?  And what does it mean when certain members of their high school class end up dead, mangled, drained of their blood?  Needy suspects something bigger than a few random murders at play, and wonders if maybe, just maybe, her bestie's at the center of it all.

Haciendo una labor casi espeleológica, buceando en periódicos y bibliotecas, Juan Manuel de Prada ha encontrado personajes muy singulares. O a lo mejor, ya pensamos que son ellos los que lo han encontrado a él, para que los devolviera a la vida. Autores malditos, canallas, envilecidos, enfermos de literatura, tan entregados a las letras como para hacer cualquier cosa por publicar sus textos. Y De Prada los recupera en Raros como yo, un libro que entronca inevitablemente con Las máscaras del héroe, la exitosa novela que reveló al autor. Espasa ha publicado esta pequeña joya.Kate Thompson ha escrito una novela muy emotiva: La biblioteca de las lectoras valientes. Una historia, basada en hechos reales, sobre una biblioteca subterránea en Londres durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Una declaración de amor a los libros, a las bibliotecas y a las historias que sostienen la esperanza en los momentos más difíciles. Es el Libro del Año Maeva. Ya va por la tercera edición.Además, abrimos las páginas de Blancura, una de las obras del último Nobel de Literatura, el noruego Jon Fosse.Y lanzamos recomendaciones más que interesantes, como el último libro de Ángeles Caso.

La biblioteca de las lectoras valientes ha sido un éxito espectacular. La novela fue publicada en noviembre, y ya va por la tercera edición. Es el Libro del Año de Maeva. La historia de Kate Thompson ha seducido a miles de lectores en todo el mundo. En el East End de Londres, en 1944, el mundo estaba en guerra. Las penurias eran máximas. Pero la esperanza no moría. Algunos vecinos construyeron una comunidad en la estación de metro de Bethnal Green. Una especie de nuevo barrio, con miles de literas, una guardería, una cafetería y un teatro. Y es allí donde una antigua bibliotecaria, Clara Button, crea la única biblioteca subterránea de todo el país. Kate Thompson ha bebido de una historia real. Y con sus instinto de investigadora, entrevistó a habitantes del East End que vivieron aquellos días tumultuosos donde las bombas alemanas eran una amenaza constante.En el Club hemos entrevistado a Susana Herman, editora de Maeva.

To watch the video of this episode, you can find it here!Kate Thompson is a leadership coach, experience designer, marketer and art enthusiast. We met via a great network we are both part of, called the Chief of Staff Network. It's a great active community filled with interesting, inspiring, empathetic professionals. If you're a Chief of Staff, (or close enough) highly recommend checking it out!If you're going through something personal right now outside of work, I highly recommend this episode. Kate's perspective and how she's shifted her mindset to accept and thrive in the season of what some may see as negative circumstances is inspiring. In this episode, we cover:* Navigating a cancer diagnosis along with being a mom and being laid off for the 3rd time* How positivity is like an orbit, and avoiding toxic positivity* Why she relates to describing herself more as verbs than nouns in her career these days and how to provide clarity to others about what she does* How she's creating her ideal clients rather than selling to them or attracting them* Conscious leadership, and what it means to create vs to reactQuote of the day:* “I think about why people are burnt out or feeling like there's got to be more or feeling a lack of meaning in their work. I think so much of it comes down to the fact that we can't see the difference we're making. We can't see the change that we make in this kind of tech knowledge work environment. Whereas when you are close to the earth: cook a meal, you create a thing, you plow the field, whatever it is, you can see ‘I did work and this is different.'” - KateAmanda's post-recording reflections:I love what Kate said about how you don't own positivity, but it is somehow attached or connected to you. An orbit implies that there's some pull toward, and eventually away from you. And it's okay if positivity isn't always nearby- it comes and goes just like the seasons do. I think about this in navigating my own journey of being laid off. Some days the positivity is really close, like summer. And some days, when an unexpected pet injury turns into a multi-thousand dollar surgery and you're stressed and overwhelmed, and the positivity is like winter, it feels really far away. I'm allowing myself to go through the ebb and flow of emotions, but damn it's not always easy.Ps. Did you like the video format this week?

Kate Thompson is a journalist, ghostwriter, and the author of seven novels. Her most recent book, out in February in the US, is The Little Wartime Library which tells the story of an underground library established in a tube station in East London during WWII. Kate joins Julie to talk about the value and magic of interviews, the importance of listening and keeping the wisdom of our older generations, and the sanctuary that can be found in any library.
