Federico entrevista a Guillermo Balmori por el libro del 60 aniversario de Sonrisas y lágrimas.
"I don't want you like a best friend." What happens when we view Taylor Swift's music through the lens of Regency era romance? In this week's Show & Tell episode, we explore Taylor Swift's songs through Shonda Rhimes's Netflix adaptation of Julia Quinn's “Bridgerton” novels to uncover how Taylor's songs capture the tension, longing, and swoony moments that define the series. From secret romances in crowded rooms to enemies-to-lovers slow burns, we connect three iconic Bridgerton couples to Taylor Swift songs that perfectly capture their love stories. Whether you're Team Daphne and Simon, obsessed with Kate and Anthony, or rooting for Colin and Penelope, this episode has something for every Bridgerton fan.

Air Date 2/1/2026 Today we examine what's actually working against the Trump regime and the role of this year's elections. Unsurprisingly, his own voter fraud investigation just proved him a liar, Democrats are overperforming expectations in House special elections, and Zohran Mamdani's campaign based on having fun in community needs to be a model for every movement against authoritarianism.

Canada's Prime Minister pointed out that the emperor has no clothes and declared US hegemony over while Europe called Trump's bluff on Greenland... all the more reason why he would prefer a fake "Board of Peace" that he can rule over as a worldwide plutocracy.

Have you ever finished a book you absolutely loved but found hard to explain? In this episode of Unabridged, we're discussing our January 2026 Book Club pick, National Book Award winner The True True Story of Raja the Gullible (and His Mother) by Rabih Alameddine (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm), which is brilliant in ways that are sometimes hard to articulate. Before diving into the discussion, we start with a bookish check-in: Ashley shares about Vera Wong's Guide to Snooping (on a Dead Man) by Jesse Q. Sutanto (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm), and Jen talks about Life on a Little-Known Planet: Dispatches from a Changing World by Elizabeth Kolbert (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm).From there, we dig into Raja the Gullible, talking about Raja's unforgettable narrative voice, the novel's nonlinear structure, and the way humor and tragedy coexist on the page. We explore Raja's complicated, tender relationship with his mother, the impact of memory and trauma across decades, and how personal stories are shaped by larger national and historical forces. We also share book pairings, give this one a resounding five bookish hearts, and wrap up with a couple of Unabridged favorites.If you're participating in the 2026 Unabridged Reading Challenge, this book fulfills the category “book from an awards list.” If you read this one, we'd love to hear what you thought!Visit the Unabridged website for our full show notes and links to the books mentioned in the episode.

"I'd say I love you even at your darkest, and please don't go." This week, we continue our winter songs conversation with a deep dive into "Forever Winter" from Red (Taylor's Version). Content warning: This episode discusses mental health struggles, suicide, and grief. We explore the song line by line, examining themes of helplessness, survivor's guilt, the weight of supporting someone through mental illness, and how Taylor captures the raw emotions of loving someone at their darkest. Join us as we unpack what it means to promise "I won't go away" and why this vault track remains one of Taylor's most emotionally devastating songs.

My chat with "overnight success" and One Story editor-in-chief Patrick Ryan, who published his debut novel for adults, Buckeye, at 60 years old, and it became the runaway hit of last year. We discussed (1) how novels have the unique ability to present audiences with the grand sweep of time; (2) what was different about Buckeye from the six or seven novels he wrote before it that didn't get published; and (3) his long, twisty journey to literary stardom late in life, a tale full of gratitude and fortitude, one that gives nourishment and hope to any aspiring artist. Order Mark's novel Bunyan and Henry. All episodes of The Thoughtful Bro aired live originally on A Mighty Blaze. The Thoughtful Bro is proudly sponsored by Libro.fm and Writer's Bone.

In Julius Caesar, Shakespeare repeatedly reminds us that Brutus is an honorable man. In this episode we will explore if this is true, how Shakespeare depicts both masculine honor and its early modern counterpart, feminine virtue, in the characters of Brutus and Portia, and how Portia's characterization by editors and theatremakers has changed over time. First, we unpack how honor was defined for Shakespeare's audiences and how the play incorporates Early Modern anxieties about rhetoric throughout the plot. We then closely examine Brutus's desire to be perceived as honorable, how that shapes his choices, and whether or not he is ultimately honorable. Then we will turn to Portia, tracing how editors and theatremakers have altered her language and characterization across time in order to make her virtue more palatable to the moral expectations of their moment. We look at what gets changed, what gets softened or erased, and what those choices reveal about how women are policed on stage and on the page. Content Warning: Discussions of suicide and self-harm.

En este episodio de Libros con Prisa, exploramos por qué el ego es el obstáculo invisible que sabotea tu éxito justo cuando crees que vas ganando. Discutimos cómo la arrogancia nos impide aprender y por qué la actitud con la que enfrentas un libro —o un reto— es más importante que cualquier ranking de ventas.
"This is the best book about how it used to be," writes the influential music critic and record industry analysts Bob Lefsetz, in praise of Paul Rappaport's wild ride of a memoir, Gliders Over Hollywood: Airships, Airplay and the Art of Rock Promotion. "[It's] the only book I can remember that truly details what it was like inside the star factory." After a career spanning more than three decades in rock promotion at Columbia Records, "Rap" knows as much as anyone what it takes to launch a new act, pump up a new record, or beat the drums on behalf of a world tour. Before capping his career at the label as a senior vice president, he had played a pivotal role in shaping and re-shaping the careers of some of the biggest stars in the business, including artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Elvis Costello, and the Boomtown Rats. "I'm a storyteller," he explains, of the many ways he tried to frame the stories of the musicians on his roster. "We were making it up as we went along, and the characters were everywhere—not just the artists, but the behind-the-scenes people, the managers. No one had captured anything… I started thinking if I don't write this down now, I don't know how long I'll have these memories. But I have them now, so that's why a book, and why now." Upon leaving Columbia, Rap formed his own production company, Tres Hombres, and for many years wrote the "Backstage Access" block for Classics du Jour. He was the lead guitarist in the pioneering Los Angeles punk band Mogan David & His Winos. Join us for a frenzied and free-wheeling look back at the glory days of rock 'n roll, as Rap reflects on the writing of his first book, and a culture-stamping career that gifted him the chance to eat latkes with Lou Reed, receive a backstage guitar lesson from Keith Richards, talk Bob Dylan down from writer's block, and trade licks onstage with David Gilmour in a once-in-a-lifetime turn as a featured guest of Pink Floyd.

Air Date: 1/21/2026 Today we look at ICE's reign of terror as a paramilitary occupation force and the communities pushing back. We'll hear about Renee Goode, an unarmed woman shot dead by federal agents, and Keith Porter, killed by an off-duty agent on New Year's Eve, in addition to historical parallels from Civil-Rights Era Selma, Alabama and the Boston Massacre. The signs of hope here are that the oppressed won those fights and the oppressors were forced to retreat - there's every reason to believe that the same pattern can repeat today. Be part of the show!

"But then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind" What happens when we explore Taylor Swift's coldest, most melancholic songs? In this week's Show and Tell episode, we examine three winter songs—"Back to December," "The Moment I Knew," and "Forever Winter"—to uncover how Taylor uses winter as a literary device to explore themes of regret, loss, and missed opportunities. From the isolation of snowy landscapes to the clarity that comes with reflection, we discuss how winter symbolizes both endings and the quiet before renewal. Spoiler alert: these songs all appear on Spotify's "Saddest Taylor Swift Songs" playlist, so bring tissues.

https://triunfacontulibro.com/Irene Feisa no es escritora profesional. Tampoco veterinaria. Trabaja en finanzas y un día adoptó a Coco, un perro bodeguero. Ese fue el punto de partida de una historia que terminó en algo que llevaba tiempo aplazando: escribir su primer libro. "No es solo un perro" no es un manual de adiestramiento, ni un cuento bonito sobre mascotas. Es una guía sincera sobre lo que nadie te cuenta antes, durante y después de adoptar. Una historia real, con errores, aprendizajes, emociones… y una enorme dosis de compromiso personal. En esta entrevista, Irene comparte: Cómo venció el bloqueo de “nunca terminaré un libro”. Qué parte de la escritura fue la más dura y por qué. Lo que aprendió sobre constancia escribiendo solo 15 minutos al día. Su experiencia con el curso “Escribe tu libro en 60 días”. Cómo fue el proceso editorial con EditaTuLibro.net. Qué errores cometió como adoptante primeriza y qué haría distinto. Su visión sobre nutrición canina y por qué el pienso no debería ser la norma. ¿Y lo más bonito? Que Coco, ese perro que un día fue rescatado, ahora no solo tiene un hogar: también es protagonista de un libro que ya está ayudando a muchas personas. Si estás pensando en escribir desde tu experiencia, aunque no seas un “experto oficial”, esta entrevista te va a tocar. Porque Irene demuestra que no hace falta tener un título para tener algo valioso que decir.

Air Date: 1/17/2026 There's a lot to be concerned about with AI but the biggest concern is the economic system we have in place at the moment when AI is being introduced. Capitalism is not a good steward of new and potentially dangerous technology, as we've seen from Zuckerberg's move-fast-and-break-things era of social media that he later recognized as having triggered a genocide. When the profit drive necessitates light-speed growth, ethical and safety considerations are the first things to be jettisoned and things get broken. Be part of the show!

La Batalla del Somme, iniciada en el verano de 1916, se convirtió en uno de los símbolos más brutales de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Concebida como una gran ofensiva aliada para romper el frente occidental, acabó transformándose en una guerra de desgaste sin precedentes. El primer día dejó decenas de miles de bajas británicas, marcando un traumático inicio. Durante meses, artillería masiva, asaltos de infantería y avances mínimos definieron la lucha. El Somme no solo reveló los límites de la guerra industrial, sino que cambió para siempre la forma de combatir y de entender el sacrificio en el frente.

My fab interview with the legendary Jenna Blum, who's written one of the most purely entertaining books I've read in ages, Murder Your Darlings. I was there for the whole life cycle of this book, from the moment she thought of it, all the way to launch. We discussed: (1) making a mid-career genre pivot, (2) the keys to a good sex scene, and (3) what it means to be writing popcorn-munching, fun-forward fare in times of turmoil. Order Mark's novel Bunyan and Henry. All episodes of The Thoughtful Bro aired live originally on A Mighty Blaze. The Thoughtful Bro is proudly sponsored by Libro.fm and Writer's Bone.
En un nuevo capítulo de Réplica, Daniel Mansuy conversó con Eugenio Tironi sobre su libro “Anotaciones al margen”, que incluye una serie de textos breves, escritos a lo largo de la última década, en los que el autor reflexiona sobre temas tan diversos como el capitalismo, la crisis de confianza en las instituciones, la política y las élites.
Air Date: 1/14/2026 Being a bad person who doesn't care about others is helpful in one's pursuit of becoming wealthy. However, becoming wealthy is also helpful in becoming a bad person who doesn't care about others, not that anyone sets out with this as a goal but it is a natural byproduct of wealth and the normal functioning of our market economy. What this means is that the nature of money, market dynamics, and wealth to corrode morality is a systemic problem, not a collection of individual failings, and should be addressed as such.

"All that time I sat alone in my tower, you were just honing your powers. Now I can see it all, see it all." This week, we're deep diving "The Fate of Ophelia" (The Life of a Showgirl, 2025). We go line by line through the lead single from Taylor's latest album, exploring everything from Hamlet references to fairy tale imagery, the contrast between "high brow" poetic language and colloquial modern speak, and why this song is actually packed with green flags about healthy relationships.

Air Date: 1/9/2026 The Republican Party has been angry about every government service and regulation designed to help average people for at least the past 90 years. And, given any opportunity to hobble or destroy any of those services or regulations in the past decades, they've done just that. Now, after 15 years of striving to destroy the Affordable Care Act - itself originally a conservative plan from the Heritage Foundation (not joking) - they're using the cult-like hold that Trump has on the party to move faster and more recklessly than they are usually able. And again, average people are going to pay the price in both dollars and deaths. Be part of the show!
