Our final episode of the year invites listeners into the life and legacy of U Thant, the longest‑serving Secretary‑General of the United Nations and a quiet architect of peace during some of the most dangerous moments of the Cold War. Drawing on the perspective of historian Thant Myint‑U, his grandson, the conversation revisits U Thant's role in crises such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Congo, showing how his calm, principled diplomacy helped steer the world away from catastrophe. Grounded in Buddhist ethics and a deep belief in multilateral cooperation, U Thant's leadership connected decolonization, social justice, and environmental concern long before these agendas were widely recognized on the global stage. Through archival stories and family memories, the episode explores how his example can inform efforts today to organize peace and renew trust in international institutions, as we reimagine the UN's potential in a fractured world.

In this episode, internationally recognized teacher librarian and Future Ready Librarians spokesperson Shannon McClintock Miller returns to share insights on the newly updated Future Ready Librarians Framework 3.0. With a focus on empowering learners and leading from the library, Shannon highlights the expanded role of librarians in today's dynamic educational landscape. She explains that today's school libraries are about far more than books; they're about empowering students through multiple literacies that prepare them for the future. Shannon describes how the updated Future Ready Librarians Framework 3.0 reflects the evolving role of librarians as instructional leaders. She emphasizes that supporting students means going beyond reading literacy to include digital, media, and AI literacies. “We're not only making sure we're supporting our learners when it comes to using [AI] responsibly and ethically,” Shannon explains, “but also using it creatively.” A key message in this episode is the importance of ongoing dialogue between librarians and students, families, teachers, and the broader school community. As Shannon shares, libraries should be inclusive spaces that support curiosity, innovation, and collaboration. The modern library is a cornerstone for future-ready learning, serving as an engagement hub for makerspaces, student-led projects, and meaningful conversations about responsible tech use. As Shannon reminds us, “Just think of the impact [librarians] have—not only in books and literacy but also in that love of learning, and curiosity, and innovation.” Visit AVID Open Access to learn more.

Message us ANONYMOUSLYGuest co-host Rachael Fosket ("The Librarians," "Midway" - 2019 ) joins Paul for a little trip to "The Shop Around the Corner" (d. Lubitsch 1940). Starring: Margaret Sullivan, and Jimmy Stewart. Budapest, 3 o'clock in the morning, and were looking for a thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck ("Twins") pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's Paul, Rachael, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. Rachael managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shop owner and his son... that's a different story altogether...nasty business, really. But, sure enough, we got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show. It's really just a nice holiday movie though. 12/9!****A member of the “Review Review,” family is in the fight of her life, you can help! - TAP/CLICK HEREMore with Rachael: Season 3 - Friday the 13thMore holidays:Season 2 - GremlinsSupport the show**All episodes contain explicit language**Artwork - Ben McFaddenReview Review Intro/Outro Theme - Jamie Henwood"What Are We Watching" & "Whatcha been up to?"

Classifying the Dictator's Collection: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts reports that Stalin hired Lenin's former librarian to organize his growing collection, creating a handwritten classification scheme that prioritized Marxist thinkers, surprisingly ranking his rival Trotsky highly on this reading list; the Bolsheviks seized control of publishing to manage public thought, while Stalin adopted an ex libris stamp to identify his personal books. 1930

Episode 402: 

“The library is where I felt, I'm safe here. I have friends in Encyclopedia Brown, Junie B. Jones, Amelia Bedelia, Stanley Yelnats, and all these various characters. I think that's the beauty. That's the sanctuary, the sacredness of that physical space.” – Mychal ThreetsMychal Threets grew up among the stacks and, from a young age, experienced the magic and shelter of the library. Today, he is a librarian, a social media sensation, a mental health advocate, and the new host of the beloved show Reading Rainbow. In this episode, we take a trip to St. Louis, where my conversation with Mychal was recorded live on stage at the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) Conference. You'll hear all about how Mychal is stepping into his own rainbow-colored shoes while honoring LeVar Burton's legacy, how he turned pain into purpose, and the power of “library joy.” And wow, the joy among the librarians in that convention hall, including two standing ovations for Mychal, was palpable. This week, in place of a featured librarian, we hear a round of Q&A with Mychal and some of those librarians in the audience. Settle in for a conversation full of Mychal's signature warmth, heart, and honesty.***LinksThe Reading CultureThe Reading Culture Newsletter SignupFollow The Reading Culture on Instagram (for giveaways and bonus content)Mychal Threets Lays Out His Life in BooksMychal Threets InstagramMychal Threets TikTokReading Rainbow on YouTubeBeanstack resources to build your community's reading cultureJordan Lloyd BookeyHost and Production CreditsHost: Jordan Lloyd BookeyProducers: Mel Webb and Lower Street MediaScript Editors: Josia Lamberto-Egan, Mel Webb, Jordan Lloyd Bookey

Long drive ahead of you this week? We've got your labor news ready to go! We start with a ton of headlines checking in with Starbucks, Amazon, Nestle, New Seasons Market, the University of Pennsylvania, Sharp Healthcare, and the nightmare that is the state of Florida. For our full stories this week, we start by checking in on union busting in a place even our jaded listeners might not expect: public libraries. Then we check in on developments with the strike by workers at Canada Post and discuss the ramifications of the end of their nationwide industrial action. Finally, the LA Times released an expose this week showing the stark levels of child exploitation in US agriculture, a scourge which is directly tied to the long history of superexploitation of migrants that US agribusiness fortunes are built on.

When an elderly man with a battered suitcase walked into the British embassy in Vilnius in 1992, few could have guessed what he was about to hand over. Gordon Corera tells the story of Vasili Mitrokhin, an under-the-radar Soviet archivist who copied thousands of classified KGB documents over 12 years. Speaking to Elinor Evans, he reveals how a project that began as a private rebellion against the agency he once served evolved into one of the greatest intelligence coups of the 20th century. (Ad) Gordon Corera is the author of The Spy in the Archive: How One Man Tried to Kill the KGB (William Collins, 2025).
