Jace talks about a few of the Indie books he got a chance to check out for the week of March 19, 2025. Power Fantasy continues to be one of the best comics out currently and it's latest issue introduces us to the final Superpower we haven't seen before, Eliza Hellhound. The debut of The Last Boy extrapolates the idea of Peter Pan as the boy who never wants to grow up to the extreme as it examines what happens when everyone around him has moved on and left him behind. Bug Wars #2 ramps up the action with some fantastic art and pacing, plus just wait until you see the bug version os Syd! The Deviant closing out in a satisfying manner, even considering the momentum it lost due to being so late. Rocketfellers is the perfect example of how to give a large case time to shine in each issue as the story moves forward, but never forgets to give some space to add development to each character. Gunslinger Spawn gets one step closer to the man he believe kidnapped his sister, but just how much will he be outnumbered by when he confronts him? Join us to hear about all these books and more, plus a rundown on other titles you might want to be on the lookout for.

The Last Boy...the inspiring "Survivor Stories Podcast" that inspired the Broadway-bound play
Moving through the world with a voice that is always impassioned, Suzanne Cohn isn't one to whisper. But she had to as a hidden child, in 8 different Christian homes throughout the Polish countryside. She even hid, breathless, behind a Christmas tree while 3 Nazi soldiers searched one of them. Listen to Suzanne recount this and other vivid memories from an unfathomable time. She can still hear the first cries of her baby sister being born in hiding, and thinking she was a gift from above just for her. She can still taste the barley soup she received in a country hospital when she was so ill, her parents had no choice but to risk her coming out of hiding for her to get the medical attention she needed. She can still see the field of poppies her father showed her from the window of their room in the DP camp. Speaking of hidden, find out what was sewn inside the first stuffed animal Suzanne was given, as her family sailed to Australia to begin their new lives. This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation with Suzanne which took place towards the end of the pandemic. The way she experienced the quarantine, undoubtedly unique to anyone who survived the Holocaust, will inspire you. This episode is dedicated to every member of Suzanne's extended, adopted Christian family, who did so much to save her own family. The music for this episode is drawn from songs sung by the Keystone State Boychoir, who sang for Suzanne at her 80th birthday party. "O Holy Night," with soloist Bobby Hill, was recorded live with the Prague Symphony Orchestra, not far from Terezin Concentration Camp. Terezin (or Thereienstadt in German) is the setting for the play dedicated to Suzanne, The Last Boy...a new play with music. You can join Suzanne on Wednesday, April 27th, 2022 at 6pm for a one night-only performance of the show, "a benefit on Broadway...a Yom HaShoah to remember." To learn more about what promises to be an extraordinary evening, join the e-list here. Pictured is Suzanne (2nd from left) after the war, with her mother and siblings. To Suzanne's right is her younger sister Wendy, to her left is her older sister Rachel holding their baby brother Georgie.

This is Part 2 of a great three-part conversation with St. Louis Symphony Orchestra violist Michael Casimir. If you, or someone you know, wants to be a professional artist, this is a must listen. Michael answers the big question - does he think young people should "go for it." The episode begins with him resolving the cliff hanger at the end of Part 1 - does he still hear those voices in his head that tell him he got the job because he's a person of color. He gives props to teacher Roberto Diaz of Curtis Institute who inspired him to not go down the road of pursuing substitute positions reserved for black musicians, and instead "break down the door" by striving to be the best of the best and win a position outright based on sheer talent. He talks about having stand partners at Julliard and Curtis years younger than him who played better, and how it lead to panic attacks over thoughts of being an unemployed musician. Michael offers fascinating insights into the harrowing process of auditioning for professional orchestras. Host Steve Fisher also shares what he typically advises young people to do when they ask if they should go into the arts, and cites the exception he made with Michael's fellow Keystone State Boychoir (KSB) alum Bobby Hill in the aftermath of his spontaneous, viral performance for the Pope. Steve and Michael talk about the importance of authentic partner arts programs with under-resourced schools, the importance of community-based arts programs for both underserved AND privileged young people. Steve tells a funny but poignant story about two founding members of KSB, from very different backgrounds, on a flight to South Africa. Steve and Michael also muse on other topics, such as how not boring your audience is more important than being artistically perfect, letting your body "sing," and what it takes to get your task master Dad to finally give you the keys to the car.

The Last Boy...the inspiring "Survivor Stories Podcast" that inspired the Broadway-bound play
Imagine you making the sign of the cross and saying your prayers at night just as you were taught, but it seems to make your mother sad. In fact, every time you do, she cries. She's grateful that you know them, because they are the very reason you are still alive. But it breaks her heart because she knows what you as a little girl do not...you are Jewish. Imagine a year in a ghetto, days under a school auditorium stage, weeks in a factory utility closet, several years either hiding in a Christian home or posing as the owners' relatives. Imagine arriving in Australia, knowing no one, but grateful you have survived and are finally free to start your life again. And then imagine meeting a young man from abroad, who calls you after he's returned home, and asks you to join him half way across the world to start over yet again. Imagine living the American dream in ways you could never fathom, but never forgetting - in the words of your father - that what matters most is not what you own, but what is in your heart and mind because no one can take that away from you. Meet Suzanne Cohn, a hidden survivor, who finds all of this still hard to imagine even though she's lived it. Hate denied Suzanne's grandmother a long life. As a child, Suzanne witnessed her being selected by the Nazis, who would have her dig a her own grave and then murder her. As the 59 year-old matriarch was taken away, she predicted a long, fruitful one for her granddaughter, and that premonition has been realized. Fruitful in many ways, but what has remained central in Suzanne's mind and heart, is family. The soundtrack for this two part episode is drawn from songs sung by the Keystone State Boychoir for Suzanne at her 80th birthday party. Bobby Hill, soloist. You can join Suzanne at the one night-only Broadway benefit performance of the play dedicated to her, The Last Boy...a new play with music. To find out more, join the e-list here.
The Last Boy...the inspiring "Survivor Stories Podcast" that inspired the Broadway-bound play
This podcast has often remembered young men who never realized their potential because of hate and discrimination. Here's a young man who HAS - St. Louis Symphony Orchestra violist Michael Casimir. Michael was raised in West Philadelphia, a real life Fresh Prince of...Missouri. Unlike Will Smith's character, Michael was not troubled. In fact, his father's dedication to his son's musical future ensured Michael didn't have a lot of time to get in trouble. But that's not to say he didn't have fun and get into a bit of mischief along the way - including his concert tour adventures in South Africa, Brazil, Alaska and Japan as a founding member of Keystone State Boychoir. Michael recounts hilarious stories with his fellow choirboys, as well as how his experiences in a boychoir helped him achieve his dream. He and host Steve Fisher also talk frankly about racism - not only in the world, but within ourselves. Don't miss Part 1 of a fascinating three part conversation with someone who has beat the odds. You can visit Michael's website here. The piece heard throughout this podcast is Handel/Halvorsen's Passacglia for violin and viola, with Elissa Lee Koljonen on violin and Michael Casimir on viola.

#007. The previous episode was Part I of this important conversation about Cancel Culture and anti-Semitism - in the past and in the present. In this episode, Part II, Steve spends time with survivor Michael Gruenbaum, who has some incredible insights about the DeSean Jackson post and Holocaust survivor Ed Mosberg's non-Cancel Culture approach to the controversy. Warning: as a former fellow "Eagle," Michael doesn't let Mr. Jackson off so easy. As in Part I, larger questions around forgiving vs. hating are explored.For more detailed show notes, links and resources for this episode, click here.

#004. Children of the Holocaust lost their innocence long before arriving at a concentration camp. It was a journey of sometimes small, sometimes big, terrible moments. For guest Michael Gruenbaum, the journey began at age 8, when he watched a Jewish couple leap to their death from their apartment balcony as the Nazis marched into Prague on March 15th, 1939. With many stops along the way, Michael completed that journey in May of 1945 when a train arrived in Terezin from Holocaust. The train door opened, and "the girl with the beautiful red hair" called out to him: "Meesha! Meesha! It's me, Inke!" He would never be the same, and either will you when you hear Michael recount this and other heart wrenching - yet hopeful - experiences. He reads excerpts from his compelling book Somewhere There is Still A Sun. This episode will move you, inspire you, and transform you. This episode features the Pennsylvania Girlchoir and Keystone State Boychoir singing Stephen Schwartz' 1999 Academy Award winning song, "When You Believe," from the soundtrack of the Prince of Egypt. It's powerful lyric, "though hope is frail it's hard to kill," is fitting as we discover that in the place of the loss of innocence, Michael reached for hope.

#002. The Last Boy brings you incredible survivor stories as they tell them. Before we continue with the journey of Sidney Taussig, meet Inge Auerbacher, another friend and survivor of Terezin. In fact, Inge led me to Sid. In my lively conversation with Inge today, I share with her two encounters that were deeply upsetting and unsettling. I love to tell stories, but these are two I wish I didn't have to tell. Hate. We know where hate can lead us. But where does hate begin? It begins with words. Words in our head. And then words on our lips. And then sometimes those words become hateful acts. You're about to go on a journey with Inge and me that will remind you in a very powerful, shocking way, that hate can come from anywhere, even religion. And anyone. Even a survivor.

Thanks to our listener Thomas Egan for being the single needed request to bring back Kamandi. Honestly, what’s not to love?! Joe and Kendall continue their surprising investment in this comic by covering the next six issues. Remember the audio issues from the first part? Gone. Remember the over the top insanity of the stories? Still here! The absolute unabashed fun of the series? Still here! The requited love of Joe and Kendall? Bigger and better than ever. Did you get that we like this series? If COVID-19 has you feeling down and looking for something to do, Joe and Kendall cannot recommend this book more: fun, wacky, and generally light. Maybe even a good candidate for the kiddos. Bat-Fanatics set your cyclo-hearts to fission, prepare for the menace of the Misfit, and hope that Sacker’s still has some toilet paper left as we return to a post-apocalyptic future in our seeming apocalyptic world. Plot Pandemonium: Kamandi: the Last Boy on Earth #7-12
Time for a triple play! It's all good, "Dood" — but if you're not first, you're last! Tonight's guests: Allie Sandstrom, Virginia Pickel, and Rick Tetrault Special thanks to David Bowers, aka the Hip Hop Advocate, aka DB the GMC
This time on the Couch: Mike, James, and Shée develop Stockholm Syndrome reading Kamandi: The Last Boy on Earth no. 3! Well, maybe not Shée, who starts this episode with prepared remarks in re: primates and how much they suck. For the rest of us, it's Planet of the Apes meets golden-haired twinks when warring apes battle over who gets to make Kamandi their smooth-legged slave. What starts as a good old-fashioned dystopian interspecies brawl becomes a poignant meditation on toxic relationships after Kamandi starts to sympathize with the raging gorilla who was literally trying to cave his skull in, like, four minutes earlier. Gotta learn to love yourself first, Kamandi. Plus, Joe Rogan finally sits on the Couch, more Kirby praise, and a request for new sign-off suggestions. Oh, and start exercising. That's not a joke, just get yourself together. You want your heart to hold old long enough to see a Kamandi movie, work those lats.
On the final episode of Sleepers and Keepers, Marc and Ethan go through the ropes one last time and discuss match ups from last week. They then go into their sleepers, busts, and waiver wire pickups of the week. Thank you for all of our listeners this season, and we look forward to you listening next year!

(This program was originally broadcast on January 29, 2019)Today, a conversation about one of the most fascinating figures, not only in baseball history, but in American history. George Herman ----Babe---- Ruth, Jr. was born and raised in Baltimore, graduated from the school of hard knocks, and evolved into the most famous man in America, whose every swing of the bat seemed to be a matter of national interest, and whose every exploit off the field was a source of endless fascination for Depression-era fans. His influence and importance to the game is unquestioned, and because the timing of his rise to prominence coincided with an expansion of media from print to broadcast, his influence in the public sphere, well outside the diamond, was unprecedented. In her fascinating and granular look at the life of Babe Ruth, Jane Leavy -- the best-selling author of The Last Boy and Sandy Koufax -- observes, “At some point in the trajectory of fame, real life becomes apocryphal. Home runs travel in perpetuity, drafting on perpetually willing suspension of disbelief. The temporal facts of biography no longer matter because everyone knows a person who can hit 60 home runs will live forever.” Babe Ruth did hit 60 home runs in the 1927 season, and we’ve been talking about him ever since. Jane Leavy asserts that our current notion of what it means to be a celebrity, what it means to be famous, were inexorably shaped by the life and media circus that was ----the Great Bambino.---- Her book is called The Big Fella: Babe Ruth and the World He Created.Jane Leavy joins Tom today in Studio A.Their conversation was live-streamed on WYPR's Facebook page, and you can watch the video here.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From Jane Leavy, the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Boy and Sandy Koufax, comes the definitive biography of Babe Ruth—the man Roger Angell dubbed "the model for modern celebrity." A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The Boston Globe | Publishers Weekly | Kirkus | Newsweek | The Philadelphia Inquirer | The Progressive Winner of the 2019 SABR Seymour Medal | Finalist for the PEN/ESPN Literary Sports Writing Award | Longlisted for Spitball Magazine’s Casey Award for Best Baseball Book of the Year | Finalist for the NBCC Award for Biography “Leavy’s newest masterpiece…. A major work of American history by an author with a flair for mesmerizing story-telling.” —Forbes He lived in the present tense—in the camera’s lens. There was no frame he couldn’t or wouldn’t fill. He swung the heaviest bat, earned the most money, and incurred the biggest fines. Like all the new-fangled gadgets then flooding the marketplace—radios, automatic clothes washers, Brownie cameras, microphones and loudspeakers—Babe Ruth "made impossible events happen." Aided by his crucial partnership with Christy Walsh—business manager, spin doctor, damage control wizard, and surrogate father, all stuffed into one tightly buttoned double-breasted suit—Ruth drafted the blueprint for modern athletic stardom. His was a life of journeys and itineraries—from uncouth to couth, spartan to spendthrift, abandoned to abandon; from Baltimore to Boston to New York, and back to Boston at the end of his career for a finale with the only team that would have him. There were road trips and hunting trips; grand tours of foreign capitals and post-season promotional tours, not to mention those 714 trips around the bases. After hitting his 60th home run in September 1927—a total that would not be exceeded until 1961, when Roger Maris did it with the aid of the extended modern season—he embarked on the mother of all barnstorming tours, a three-week victory lap across America, accompanied by Yankee teammate Lou Gehrig. Walsh called the tour a "Symphony of Swat." The Omaha World Heraldcalled it "the biggest show since Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey, and seven other associated circuses offered their entire performance under one tent." In The Big Fella, acclaimed biographer Jane Leavy recreates that 21-day circus and in so doing captures the romp and the pathos that defined Ruth’s life and times. Drawing from more than 250 interviews, a trove of previously untapped documents, and Ruth family records, Leavy breaks through the mythology that has obscured the legend and delivers the man. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/steve-richards/support

Today, a conversation about one of the most fascinating figures, not only in baseball history, but in American history. Babe Ruth was born and raised in Baltimore, graduated from the school of hard knocks, and evolved into the most famous man in America, whose every swing of the bat seemed to be a matter of national interest, and whose every exploit off the field was a source of endless fascination for Depression-era fans. His influence and importance to the game is unquestioned, and because the timing of his rise to prominence coincided with an expansion of media from print to broadcast, his influence in the public sphere, well outside the diamond, was unprecedented. In her fascinating and granular look at the life of Babe Ruth, Jane Leavy -- the best-selling author of The Last Boy and Sandy Koufax -- observes, “At some point in the trajectory of fame, real life becomes apocryphal. Home runs travel in perpetuity, drafting on perpetually willing suspension of disbelief. The temporal facts of biography no longer matter because everyone knows a person who can hit 60 home runs will live forever.” Babe Ruth did hit 60 home runs in the 1927 season, and we’ve been talking about him ever since. Jane Leavy asserts that our current notion of what it means to be a celebrity, what it means to be famous, were inexorably shaped by the life and media circus that was ----the Great Bambino.---- Her book is called The Big Fella: Babe Ruth and the World He Created.Jane Leavy joins Tom today in Studio A.Their conversation was live-streamed on WYPR's Facebook page, and you can watch the video here.
Jane Leavy is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The Last Boy, Sandy Koufax: A Lefty's Legacy and the comic novel Squeeze Play, which Entertainment Weekly called “the best novel ever written about baseball.” Her latest title, Big Fella, has been hailed as the definitive biography of Babe Ruth. Epting and Leavy will talk not just about moments in her life as a best-selling author, but also what she believes were the biggest moments in the Babe's life.

In 1970, DC proclaimed, “The Great One Is Coming!” And they were right! Jack “The King” Kirby went across the street from Marvel to the Distinguished Competition and hit their publishing line like an atomic bomb. The New Gods! Mister Miracle! The Forever People! The Demon! Omac! But few of them had the specific impact & influence as today's subject: Kamandi, The Last Boy on Earth! Mike & Greg focus on the earlier issues of The King's 37-issue full-creator run, but as with all things Kirby, there's so much other stuff to consider. Is this the best work of his career? What drove him to DC in the first place, and then back to Marvel? How much microfilm did Kamandi read? Why is Kirby Sheen more signature than Kirby Krackle? When did you first GET Kirby? All that, plus looks at the 70's DC “Bullpen Bulletins”, Kirby inkers compared and rated, and exactly what speed were these comics were intended to be read at? Robots From Tomorrow is a weekly comics podcast recorded deep beneath the Earth's surface. You can subscribe to it via iTunes or through the RSS feed at RobotsFromTomorrow.com. You can also follow Mike and Greg on Twitter. This episode is brought to you by Third Eye Comics. Enjoy your funny books.
