Host Diana Korte speaks with award-winning Karen Russell about her newest book, THE ANTIDOTE , which begins on Black Sunday, as a historic dust storm in the 1930s ravages the fictional town of Uz, Nebraska. But Uz is already collapsing—not just under the weight of the Great Depression and the dust bowl drought but beneath its own violent histories. The book follows five characters--a "Prairie Witch,” whose body serves as a bank vault for peoples' memories and secrets; a Polish wheat farmer who learns how quickly a hoarded blessing can become a curse; his orphan niece, a basketball star and witch's apprentice in furious flight from her grief; a talkative scarecrow; and a New Deal photographer whose time-traveling camera threatens to reveal both the town's secrets and its fate. Russell's “climate change” fiction in novels and short stories, includes the bestsellers Swamplandia! and Vampires in the Lemon Grove. Author of six books, she has received MacArthur and Guggenheim Fellowships and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.

Can you see the shape of your soul in the everchanging clouds? Your personal salvation in the giant expanse of sky? For the ensemble cast of characters that make up the prairie community at the heart of The Mighty Red, existential questions are constantly close to the surface. In her newest novel, author Louise Erdrich immerses readers in the Red River Valley of the North and the complicated lives of its inhabitants. Argus, North Dakota is a town framed by the 2008 economic crisis, the consequences of climate change, and the dynamics of small-town drama. Thrown into motion by a chaotic teen love triangle and fretting about the future, Erdrich's characters navigate impulsive choices, bitter secrets, and deeply rooted ties to their land and to each other. The Red River Valley is home to dark realities and glimmering hopes, twisting together like winding late-night drives along dimly lit roads. As resources dwindle and viewpoints shift, love and life lurch forward in splendor, catastrophe, and absurdity. Bonds in the community are born and bolstered, disturbed and questioned, broken and mended. Laced with tender humor and humanity in the midst of devastating environmental circumstances, The Mighty Red paints a layered landscape of ordinary people surviving fraught times. Louise Erdrich is an award-winning Native American author and poet whose writing spans novels, short stories, non-fiction, and children's books. Her previously published works include The Plague of Doves, The Round House, and The Night Watchman. She is an enrolled member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians and the owner of the Native-focused independent teaching bookstore Birchbark Books in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Karen Russell is the author of five books of fiction, including The New York Times bestsellers Swamplandia! and Vampires in the Lemon Grove. She is a MacArthur Fellow and a Guggenheim Fellow, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, the recipient of two National Magazine Awards for Fiction, the New York Public Library's Young Lions Award, the National Book Foundation's 5 Under 35 award, the Shirley Jackson Award, the 2023 Bottari Lattes Grinzane prize, and the 2024 Mary McCarthy Prize, among other honors. With composer Ellis Ludwig-Leone and choreographer and director Troy Schumacher, she cocreated The Night Falls, listed as one of The New York Times's Best Dance Performances of 2023.

Today we kick off our "BEST OF SEASON 4" series. And what better way than to re-broadcast our first episode of the season, featuring Olympic Gold Medalist, Greg Louganis. So please enjoy - either for the 1st time or again. And stay tuned for additional "Best ofs" through the summer until we premiere Season 5 in September.From the archive:We are so thrilled to launch our 4th Season of “Fostering Change.” Over the past 4 years, we have spoken with more than 150 Good Humans, who have shared their missions and inspiring stories. For our premiere episode of Season 4 we could not be more excited to have Olympic Gold Medalist, Greg Louganis as our guest. Enjoy!In this week's episode of Fostering Change, Rob Scheer talks with Greg Louganis, Louganis was adopted at 9 months by Frances and Peter Louganis, who lived in Lemon Grove, CA, just outside of San Diego. Teased and bullied as a child for the dark skin he inherited from his Samoan father and for his learning “differences,” he turned to what he could do well: sport. His first love was gymnastics and by nine years old, he was a “seasoned performer on the local talent show and convalescent-home circuit.”Considered the greatest diver in history, Greg Louganis is the only male to win gold medals on both 3 meter springboard and 10 meter platform in consecutive Olympic Games (1984, 1988).Across the globe, billions who watched either the 1984 or 1988 Olympics were enthralled by the poetry that was Greg Louganis: the beauty and power of his diving captured the world.With a total of 5 Olympic medals, 5 World Championship titles and 47 national titles, more than any person in U.S. history, his records remain unbroken.Today, as a coach, speaker, author, actor, activist and humanitarian he continues his tradition of excellence.A trained actor, dancer, model and spokesman, Greg's wide repertoire of skills keeps him in demand and in the public eye. As the undisputed GOAT of mindset, Greg shares his knowledge and wisdom through his meditation and mindfulness course, as well as through his books, interviews and speaking engagements.Causes close to his heart include HIV/AIDS, LGBTQ+, Adoption/Foster Care, Mental Health/Addiction, Human Rights, Animals, Environmental Issues and Climate Change.

Here's what John Riley thinks: The City of Carlsbad is Banning Gay Pride Flag on City Buildings The LGBTQ community is upset that the Gay Pride Flag cannot be presented on city buildings in Carlsbad. But what is the role of local government? Does the American flag already protect gay rights in the first place? No doubt this flies in the face of the woke agenda, but I think we should support equal rights for all, not special rights for this group and that group. Carlsbad Bans Prayer at City Meetings Why do some cities have invocations to start a city meeting? Is this a violation of the separation of church and state? While we're at it, why do they pledge allegiance to the flag before a meeting? I like this move by Carlsbad. San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond and Homelessness The County of San Diego wants to buy more hotels to house the homeless. After all, it's free money from Sacramento! Is this the solution to homelessness or are they just sweeping them under the rug? There are still mental health and addiction issues that need to be addressed. Tax the Rich to Subsidize San Diego Housing The idea is to tax large businesses on their payroll for employees earning $150,000+ per year. The money would go into a fund to subsidize housing for others. Would this solve the housing problem or just make matters worse? Taxing payroll will just increase demand when there is already not enough supply. It's not a solution. San Diego Housing Prices Continue to Increase Despite higher interest rates, housing prices are still going up. It's because there are not enough houses for sale. Until they start building more, we will continue to have a housing crisis making it really tough for first time home buyers. Rancho Bernardo Sink Hole There's a huge hole on Escala Drive in Rancho Bernardo. Why is it so hard to get this fixed quickly? The City of San Diego is trying to get emergency approval and pass environmental regulations. It's going to take over 2 months to fix it if we're lucky. Santee Allows More Tattoo Parlors Microblading is a hot trend to enhance eyebrows. The technique is like tattoos, and this is causing Santee to deregulate the rules in their city. Will this attract a bad element? Or is this just people pursuing their happiness? Lemon Grove Allows More Cannabis Dispensaries It's still illegal in El Cajon, but Lemon Grove is opening their economy for more cannabis dispensaries. But Lemon Grove has a serious revenue problem for their city coffers. Is this a move to free up their economy or just generate more tax dollars for the city? Looks like both. #lamesa #gaypride #LGBTQ #prayer #1A #carlsbad #SanDiego #homelessness #homeless #housingfirst #jimdesmond #ranchobernardo #lemongrove #santee #cannabis #tattoo #kusi #termlimits #TheFarm #LifetimeFitness JRP0320 Relevant Links: Carlsbad Bans Gay Pride Flag: https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/carlsbad/story/2023-05-23/proposal-to-display-commemorative-flags-including-pride-flag-fails-in-carlsbad https://timesofsandiego.com/politics/2023/05/23/la-mesa-councilwomans-flag-ban-idea-shredded-by-pro-lgbtq-speakers-dies/ Carlsbad Bans Prayer at City Council Meetings https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/carlsbad/story/2023-05-17/no-more-prayers-for-carlsbad-city-council Jim Desmond: Housing First Objection to Solve Homelessness https://www.sandiegouniontribune.

Double Doinks and Sackles, trade deadline episode. Chris Walters couldn't stay away and is back with us this week. Probably the most craziest and active NFL trade deadline that we've experience in quite a while. We talk about those crazy trades (Calvin Ridley to the Jags, Bradley Chubb and Jeff Wilson to the Dolphins, TJ Hockenson to the Vikings, Roquan Smith to the Ravens, and others). We recap Week 8 in the NFL with some pretty wild games and amazing feats and stats. We also talk about those trades that didn't happen and shake our heads in bewilderment. Our commercial this week is for Dirks Nite Club in Lemon Grove, CA. And finally we cover a little bit of NFL news with the Washington Football Team Heinicke Commies and make our Week 9 picks. Thanks for listening to our podcast where the personalities are big and the banter is just right. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Today, November 1, 2022, we are so thrilled to launch our 4th Season of “Fostering Change.” Over the past 4 years, we have spoken with more than 150 Good Humans, who have shareed their missions and inspiring stories For our premiere episode of Season 4 we could not be more excited to have Olympic Gold Medalist, Greg Louganis as our guest. Enjoy!In this week's episode of Fostering Change, Rob Scheer talks with Greg Louganis, Louganis was adopted at 9 months by Frances and Peter Louganis, who lived in Lemon Grove, CA, just outside of San Diego. Teased and bullied as a child for the dark skin he inherited from his Samoan father and for his learning “differences,” he turned to what he could do well: sport. His first love was gymnastics and by nine years old, he was a “seasoned performer on the local talent show and convalescent-home circuit.”Considered the greatest diver in history, Greg Louganis is the only male to win gold medals on both 3 meter springboard and 10 meter platform in consecutive Olympic Games (1984, 1988).Across the globe, billions who watched either the 1984 or 1988 Olympics were enthralled by the poetry that was Greg Louganis: the beauty and power of his diving captured the world.With a total of 5 Olympic medals, 5 World Championship titles and 47 national titles, more than any person in U.S. history, his records remain unbroken.Today, as a coach, speaker, author, actor, activist and humanitarian he continues his tradition of excellence.A trained actor, dancer, model and spokesman, Greg's wide repertoire of skills keeps him in demand and in the public eye. As the undisputed GOAT of mindset, Greg shares his knowledge and wisdom through his meditation and mindfulness course, as well as through his books, interviews and speaking engagements.Causes close to his heart include HIV/AIDS, LGBTQ+, Adoption/Foster Care, Mental Health/Addiction, Human Rights, Animals, Environmental Issues and Climate Change. Story Key Notes:
There are two candidates on the Nov. 8 ballot running for San Diego County supervisors District 4, which includes Clairemont, Linda Vista, Hillcrest, North Park, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and many communities in between. Democratic incumbent supervisor/educator Nathan Fletcher is challenged this election by Republican small business owner Amy Reichert. Both candidates met with The San Diego Union-Tribune Editorial Board ahead of the election.
