In 1944, fifty-two year old Dutch watchmaker Corrie ten Boom was arrested by the Gestapo for sheltering Jews. After surviving Ravensbruck and losing most of her family, she embarked on a three decade ministry, sharing a message of love, forgiveness, and hope. Who was Corrie ten Boom and how did she become the kind of person who builds secret rooms, undermines Nazis, survives a concentration camp, and then goes on to share the gospel with refugees, prisoners, and the Nazis who killed her family?

Oftentimes, when your local library is putting on a book sale, it's held at the library itself. In Nahant, they're doing a cleanout of some rare titles that, in some cases, haven't seen the light of day in decades. What's different here is that they're doing it on eBay, opening up bid opportunities from all over the world. Nori Morganstein, Director of the Nahant Public Library, discusses their decision to go digital with this latest book sale, and why it's necessary to part ways with some of these aged books.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When most people think of alchemy, they imagine a medieval wizard desperately trying to turn lead into gold. But the real story of alchemy is far stranger and far more important because hidden within those mysterious experiments were the early discoveries that would eventually become modern chemistry. In this episode of For the Love of History, we explore the origins of alchemy and how early experiments in metallurgy, medicine, and chemistry shaped the scientific world we know today. What began as practical craft knowledge in ancient Egypt and Greece eventually evolved into a global intellectual tradition spanning the Islamic Golden Age, Indian Rasashastra, and Daoist alchemy in China. Along the way we meet some of the most influential figures in early scientific history. You'll hear about Zosimos of Panopolis, one of the earliest recorded alchemists, and Maria the Jewess, a pioneering woman whose inventions helped shape laboratory techniques still used in chemistry today. We'll also explore the work of Jabir ibn Hayyan, whose writings during the Islamic Golden Age helped transform alchemy into a more systematic scientific practice. From ancient alchemy recipes found in Egyptian papyri to the global exchange of scientific knowledge across continents, this episode uncovers how centuries of curiosity about matter and transformation eventually led to the birth of modern chemistry. The story of alchemy isn't just about gold—it's about humanity's earliest attempts to understand the building blocks of the universe. In This Episode

Fluent Fiction - Korean: Unveiling Seoul's Secret Library Retreat Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ko/episode/2026-03-06-08-38-20-ko Story Transcript:Ko: 서울의 바람은 살랑살랑 불고, 그 바람은 서울 도서관 창문 사이로 들어왔다.En: The wind in Seoul blew gently, and it breezed through the windows of the Seoul library.Ko: 상민과 지현은 도서관 문 앞에서 발걸음을 멈추었다.En: Sangmin and Jihyun stopped at the entrance of the library.Ko: 상민은 무거운 가방을 어깨에 메고, 깊은 한숨을 내쉬었다.En: Sangmin carried a heavy bag on his shoulder and exhaled a deep sigh.Ko: "여기 조용한 곳 찾기 참 힘드네..." 상민이 중얼거렸다.En: "It's really hard to find a quiet place here..." Sangmin muttered.Ko: "그래도 이 도서관, 한 번은 와보고 싶었어," 지현이 상냥하게 말했다. "우리 비밀 장소가 있다고 들었잖아?"En: "Still, I've always wanted to check out this library," Jihyun said kindly. "I heard there's a secret spot here?"Ko: 상민과 지현은 학교 시험을 준비해야 했다.En: Sangmin and Jihyun had to prepare for their school exams.Ko: 도서관 안은 북적거렸고, 조용한 곳이 없었다.En: Inside the library, it was crowded, and there was no quiet place.Ko: 그러다 상민의 눈이 빛났다.En: Then Sangmin's eyes lit up.Ko: "지하실에 비밀 벙커가 있다는 소문이 있었지?"En: "Wasn't there a rumor about a secret bunker in the basement?"Ko: 지현은 머뭇거렸다. "귀신 이야기는 들었어. 좀 무섭지만..."En: Jihyun hesitated. "I've heard ghost stories. I'm a bit scared, but..."Ko: 상민은 결심이 섰다. "그래도 시도해 봐야 해. 여긴 너무 시끄러워."En: Sangmin made up his mind. "We still have to try. It's too noisy here."Ko: 둘은 도서관 직원에게 물어보지 않고, 비밀 벙커를 찾기로 했다.En: Without asking the library staff, they decided to look for the secret bunker.Ko: 계단을 내려가자, 무거운 나무문이 그들 앞에 있었다.En: As they went down the stairs, a heavy wooden door stood before them.Ko: 문은 삐걱거리며 열렸다.En: The door creaked open.Ko: 그 안은 어둡고 먼지가 쌓인 오래된 책들로 가득했다.En: Inside, it was dark and filled with dusty old books.Ko: 퀴퀴한 냄새가 났다.En: A musty smell lingered.Ko: "무섭다..." 지현은 조심스럽게 속삭였다.En: "I'm scared..." Jihyun whispered cautiously.Ko: "괜찮아, 여긴 귀신 없을 거야," 상민이 말했다.En: "It's okay, there won't be any ghosts here," Sangmin reassured.Ko: 그들은 테이블에 앉았다.En: They sat down at a table.Ko: 날카로운 바람 소리가 현관에서 들려왔지만, 금방 조용해졌다.En: A sharp wind sound came from the entrance, but it soon became quiet.Ko: 벙커는 오히려 따뜻하고 안락했다.En: The bunker was surprisingly warm and cozy.Ko: 작은 창문을 통해 봄 햇살이 비치며 바닥에 무늬를 그렸다.En: Spring sunlight streamed through a small window, creating patterns on the floor.Ko: 상민은 수학 책을 펼치고 집중하기 시작했다.En: Sangmin opened a math book and started to focus.Ko: 그는 "이게 바로 필요했던 평화야," 라고 속으로 생각했다.En: He thought to himself, "This is just the peace I needed."Ko: 지현은 그의 모습을 보며 조용히 자신의 책을 꺼냈다.En: Jihyun, watching him, quietly took out her own book.Ko: 시간이 지날수록, 두 사람은 벙커를 돌아다니며 옛날 자료들을 발견했다.En: As time passed, the two of them wandered around the bunker, discovering old materials.Ko: 그 자료들은 오래된 수학 기법을 소개하고 있었다.En: These materials introduced ancient mathematical techniques.Ko: 상민은 자상한 목소리로 "이렇게 보는 거야," 지현이 기뻐하며 새로 알게 된 것을 따라 했다.En: In a gentle voice, Sangmin said, "This is how you see it," and Jihyun happily followed the new insights.Ko: 갑자기 두 사람은 빙긋이 미소를 지었다.En: Suddenly, they both burst into a smile.Ko: "벙커 덕분에 이 어려운 문제들이 쉽게 느껴져," 상민이 말하며, 자신감을 찾았다.En: "Thanks to the bunker, these difficult problems seem easy," Sangmin said, finding his confidence.Ko: 벙커에서 떠날 시간이 되자, 두 사람은 홀가분한 마음으로 올라갔다.En: When it was time to leave the bunker, they went upstairs with a light heart.Ko: 그들은 도서관 문을 나서며 서로를 바라보고 웃었다.En: As they stepped out of the library, they looked at each other and laughed.Ko: "우리 이번 시험 잘 볼 수 있을 거야," 지현이 상민에게 말했다.En: "We'll do well on this exam," Jihyun said to Sangmin.Ko: "응, 네 덕분에," 상민은 고마운 마음을 전했다.En: "Yes, thanks to you," Sangmin expressed his gratitude.Ko: 둘은 벙커에서의 경험으로 더 가까워지고 자신감을 얻었다.En: Through their experience in the bunker, they became closer and gained confidence.Ko: 그들은 자신들의 길을 확신하며 다시 바람이 부는 거리를 걸어갔다.En: Assured of their path, they walked again through the windy streets.

We're so pleased to welcome Dr. Amelia Acker, author of Archiving Machines: From Punch Cards to Platforms (MIT Press, 2025) to the New Books Network!  This book describes the struggle between the computing technologies that archive data and the cultures of information that have led to platforms that assert control over its use. Acker examines the origins of data archives and the computing processes of storage, exchange, and transmission. Each chapter introduces data archiving processes that relate to the evolution of data sovereignty we experience today: from magnetic tape and timesharing computer models from the 1950s, to the establishment of data banks and the rise of database processing and managed data silos in the 1970s, to file structures and virtual containers in cloud-based information services over the past 40 years.

Send a textHow do you build and scale an online business when AI is replacing entire skill sets? The new million dollar skill isn't coding, copywriting, or media buying — it's assembly.Josh Gavin is 23 years old, has created over 800 low-ticket offers, and partners with 7- and 8-figure creators to launch digital products for their audiences. In this episode of The Alchemist's Library, Josh breaks down the new million dollar skill for building and scaling a business in the AI era: becoming an assembler. If you're a young entrepreneur trying to future-proof your career with AI replacing entire job titles overnight, this is the playbook for launching offers, leveraging AI tools, and building online businesses without doing everything yourself.Josh shares how he took a brand new health info business from zero to $145K with no experience in that market, his exact offer architecture for coaching and expert businesses, why most guys get stuck chasing identities instead of solving problems, and how to use paid ads without fear. We also deep dive into low ticket vs. high ticket funnels, why the "ads will break when you scale" narrative is propaganda, and how to choose the right online business model in 2026 and beyond.Drop a comment with your biggest takeaway and subscribe for new episodes every Monday through Thursday.Time Stamps:00:00 – How to Build a Business in the AI Era01:00 – Why Job Titles Are Dead and Assembly Is the New Skill04:11 – Zero to $145K With No Experience in the Market06:29 – Working On the Business vs. In the Business10:07 – Chasing Problems Instead of Revenue Goals13:29 – Why You Should Want to Spend More on Ads15:07 – Organic vs. Paid Advertising Debate Breakdown19:27 – How to Structure a Health or Coaching Offer24:16 – Creating a Unique Mechanism That Sells28:26 – Low Ticket Funnels for Doctors and Experts36:41 – How AI Makes Running Paid Ads Easier Than Ever39:38 – How to Choose the Right Online Business Model45:17 – What Is Whop and How Entrepreneurs Use It52:39 – How to Grow a Podcast From Hobby to Business#OnlineBusiness #AIEntrepreneur #FutureProofYourCareerhttps://ascensionofficer.com/Connect with Josh! https://x.com/joshdgavinConnect with Us!https://www.instagram.com/alchemists.library/https://twitter.com/RyanJAyala

We're so pleased to welcome Dr. Amelia Acker, author of Archiving Machines: From Punch Cards to Platforms (MIT Press, 2025) to the New Books Network!  This book describes the struggle between the computing technologies that archive data and the cultures of information that have led to platforms that assert control over its use. Acker examines the origins of data archives and the computing processes of storage, exchange, and transmission. Each chapter introduces data archiving processes that relate to the evolution of data sovereignty we experience today: from magnetic tape and timesharing computer models from the 1950s, to the establishment of data banks and the rise of database processing and managed data silos in the 1970s, to file structures and virtual containers in cloud-based information services over the past 40 years. Your host is Dr. Adam Kriesberg, Associate Professor at the Simmons University School of Library and Information Science. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the heart of London's Bloomsbury, behind a scruffy turquoise door, the world lies folded into drawers. Here are maps that survived wars, regimes, and revolutions — not because they were valued, but because they were forgotten.   Some were reused when paper was scarce - a map of Cuba mounted on the reverse of a Second World War map of Berlin, the roads of one ruined city shining faintly through another place entirely, a haunting map of Hiroshima printed just weeks before destruction. Britain's only Professor of Cartography, James Cheshire's book The Library of Lost Maps, explores the hidden collection of thousands of maps in a room at University College London. He joins us to tell us why paper maps still matter.   Maps tell us what was ignored, how ideology, hope and catastrophe have been drawn onto paper; they tell us how power wanted the world to look, and they reveal hidden patterns in everyday life. And when map libraries disappear, it isn't just paper that vanishes — it's memory.   #maps #maplibrary #hiroshima #ordnancesurvey #mapping #cartography #johnsnow #tubemap

Every year, the Multnomah County Library chooses one book they hope the whole city will read. Between January and April, the Library, and their partner organizations, host events based around the themes of the book, and they distribute thousands of free copies—thanks to the Library Foundation—to readers of all ages from across the county. At Literary Arts, our role is to bring the author to town for a talk in the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. The 2025 Everybody Reads book was the memoir Solito by Javier Zamora. Written from the perspective of his nine-year-old self, Solito is a gripping and beautiful account of Zamora's three-thousand-mile journey from a small village in El Salvador to his new home in United States. Epic in scope and intimate in detail, it's a book about the family one comes from, the family one longs for, and the family one makes. Zamora conjures all the wonder, fear and imaginative capacity of his young self; clear-eyed in his depictions of cruelty and danger, insistent on recognizing kindness. He also renders his journey with vivid detail with breathtaking lyricism, paying close attention to the power of language – this comes as no surprise, given that Zamora is also an award-winning poet. The writer Sandra Cisneros said, “I have waited decades for a memoir like Solito.” But, Solito isn't simply a story of a migrant's harrowing journey, it's the story of a writer becoming a writer. It is also one of the most important American stories of our time. “Poetry and history were the first tools I had to begin to explain my life so far away from the land that watched me be born and grow up for the first nine years of my life.” Javier Zamora was born in La Herradura, El Salvador in 1990. When he was a year old, his father fled El Salvador due to the US-funded Salvadoran Civil War (1980-1992). His mother followed her husband's footsteps in 1995 when Javier was about to turn five. Zamora was left at the care of his grandparents who helped raise him until he migrated to the US when he was nine. His first poetry collection, Unaccompanied, explores some of these themes. In his debut New York Times bestselling memoir, SOLITO, Javier retells his nine-week odyssey across Guatemala, Mexico, and eventually through the Sonoran Desert. He travelled unaccompanied by boat, bus, and foot. After a coyote abandoned his group in Oaxaca, Javier managed to make it to Arizona with the aid of other migrants. Zamora is the winner of a 2024 Whiting Fellowship and the 2022 LA Times-Christopher Isherwood Prize. He holds fellowships from CantoMundo, Colgate University (Olive B. O’Connor), MacDowell, Macondo, the National Endowment for the Arts, Poetry Foundation (Ruth Lilly), Stanford University (Stegner), and Yaddo. He is the recipient of a 2018-2019 Radcliffe Fellowship at Harvard University, a 2017 Lannan Literary Fellowship, the 2017 Narrative Prize, the 2016 Barnes & Noble Writer for Writers Award for his work in the Undocupoets Campaign.

In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the report that Paramount Skydance plans to combine Paramount+ and HBO Max into one streaming service if the merger moves forward. Frank talks through why the move makes sense in a streaming market dominated by giant libraries, why keeping the HBO name separate still matters, and what this could mean for brands like DC moving forward.

In this episode from Highclere Castle, I sit down with Nick Hopton to talk about his book, "Marma Mia," which begins as the story of buying and restoring a holiday house in an unspoiled part of Tuscany, the Maremma and becomes a wider family and personal journey. Nick shares how reading "A Year in Provence" during COVID while he was British Ambassador to Libya helped inspire him to write a feel-good book that encourages readers to discover lesser-known regions. We discuss his Foreign Office career and his approach to languages, including learning Arabic across postings such as Morocco, Yemen, Qatar and Libya, along with French, Italian, Spanish, some German, and some Farsi ahead of becoming ambassador to Iran after the 2015 nuclear deal and the reopening of the British embassy. Nick explains how a friend's suggestion to look beyond Chianti led serendipitously to the first house they viewed and ultimately boughtalongside the realities of renovating abroad: high costs, practical challenges, and the highs and lows of making a place work for family life. We also talk about his unexpected love of landscaping and working with a skilled digger operator he calls “Michelangelo,” the region's food, wine, local olive oil and its strong Tuscan accent. Nick recounts a memorable moment when a friend arrived with an armed escort and the town's mayor turned out to greet them, and he updates me on ongoing projects, including drilling a 97-meter well to reach a fresh aquifer. Looking ahead, Nick describes writing best in the relative isolation of the Italian house and shares his interest in writing more broadly about the Mediterranean, linked to his role creating a new program at the University of Cambridge Centre for Geopolitics. We touch on the Napoleonic history of the area, including the principality of Piombino and Lucca and Napoleon's sister Elisa and end with a playful question about a dream dance guest Nick chooses Dante's Beatrice, reflecting his early love of Dante's poetry and its lifelong influence.00:00 Meet Nick Hopton & the book ‘Marma Mia' (restoring a house in Italy)00:50 Inspired by ‘A Year in Provence': writing a feel-good travel memoir during COVID01:59 Diplomatic life & learning languages: Arabic, French, Italian (and more)04:26 Why you should speak the local language (even with bad grammar)05:17 Falling for Tuscany's Maremma: the serendipitous house-buying story07:42 Renovation reality: highs, lows, and why the Maremma stays authentic08:44 Landscaping obsession: diggers, Kubotas, and ‘Michelangelo' the operator11:05 Food, wine & dialect: tomatoes, olive oil, and the Tuscan accent12:49 Small-town surprises: the ambassador friend visit and the mayor's welcome13:43 The work never ends: is the villa project ever really finished?14:01 Digging a 97m Well & the Never-Ending House Project14:27 What's Next After the Book: A Wider Mediterranean Focus14:58 Seeing the Mediterranean Holistically (Cambridge Geopolitics & Trade Routes)16:26 Duff Cooper, John Julius Norwich & Highclere's Colorful Guests17:20 Writing Habits: Tuscany, Isolation, Rhythm & Beating Procrastination18:37 Italy, Maremma & Napoleonic History: Elisa and the Principality of Piombino and Lucca20:30 Diplomatic Postings & Reopening the UK Embassy in Iran (2015)23:09 Iran Today: Regime Weakness, Protests, and a Hope to Visit the Cradle of Civilization24:21 Highclere's Library, the Book Club, and a Shared Love of Italy25:27 Finale: The Summer Dance Fantasy Guest—Dante, Beatrice & Vita NovaYou can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.

New York City was the focus of the early American television industry. In TV's early years NYC had the highest concentration of television sets, viewers, broadcasters, and infrastructure. In NYC many Americans had their first encounter with TV. In his latest book project, Dr. Richard Popp, associate professor at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, tunes into the tangled relationship between televisions and the urban fabric and lived experience of NYC. Using several collections held in the Hagley Library, including those of RCA, David Sarnoff, and Ernest Dichter, Popp explores the history of television screens in public spaces, and the many misadventures of the television repair industry. In support of his research, Dr. Popp received funding from the Hagley Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

One night in April 2008, Queena Phu–just days after her 18th birthday and days before the senior prom she was prepping for–was returning books at the library when she was brutally attacked. Thankfully, she survived, but not without sustaining severe brain damage and losing her vision and ability to speak. Her friends and family jumped into action, and local law enforcement knew they needed to bring her attacker off the streets and to justice.Join Queena: https://joinqueena.com/This episode is sponsored by:EarnIn - when you download the EarnIn app, type in TrueCrimewithKendallRae under PODCASTOSEA - promo code: TCKRFabletics - after you take a quick style quiz, select TCKR when promptedPerelel - promo code: TCKRWarby Parker - Our listeners get 15% off plus free shipping when they buy two or more pairs of prescription glasses at WarbyParker.com/TCKR — using our link helps support the show. #WarbyParker #ad—Check out my foundation: Higher Hope Foundation: https://www.higherhope.org/Watch my documentaries:530 Days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjUWkmOjNLkApartment 801: https://bit.ly/2RJ9XXr True Crime with Kendall Rae podcast:Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3rks84oSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3jC66prShop my Merch! https://kendallrae.shopCheck out my other podcasts:Mile Higher (True Crime) @milehigherpodYouTube: https://bit.ly/2ROzJcwInstagram: http://instagram.com/milehigherpodThe Sesh (Current events, a little true crime, pop culture, and commentary) https://bit.ly/3Mtoz4X @the_seshpodcastInstagram: https://bit.ly/3a9t6Xr*Follow My Social!* @KendallRaeOnytInstagram: http://instagram.com/kendallraeonytFacebook: https://bit.ly/3kar4NKTrue Crime TikTok: https://bit.ly/3VDbc77Personal TikTok: https://bit.ly/41hmRKgREQUESTS: General case suggestion form: https://zfrmz.com/yg9cuiWjUe2QY3hSC2V0Form for people directly related/close to the victim: https://zfrmz.com/HGu2hZso42aHxARt1i67Join my discord to chat with other viewers about this video, it's free! https://discord.com/invite/an4stY9BCNC O N T A C T:For Business Inquiries - kendallrae@night.coSend me mail: Kendall Rae 8547 E Arapahoe Rd Ste J #233 Greenwood Village, CO 80112
