"I'll tell you everything I know. Though there might not be much to tell," confesses the speaker in Strange Hymn: Poems (U Mass Press, 2025) by Carlene Kucharczyk, in a meticulously crafted lyrical journey exploring morality and humanity. The poems here grapple with understanding physical loss: "I wanted / to know at once and definitively our animal bodies / were not all we were. It is shameful to be this fragile." They also engage with the more abstract slipping away of memory and time: "Since I was born, I have been forgetting. Forgetting what I have wanted to remember." Kucharczyk's insightful poems blur the lines between history and myth, love and grief, song and silence.Caught between lamenting the passage of time and rejoicing in small beauties, she writes, "I tell you, I wish we could stay here longer / in this hotel of lost grandeur, this palace of interesting disarray, / and stay here with these pieces of the impersonal past / that have somehow not yet outlasted their small lights." Each moment reflects on our ephemeral lives from musings on art and nature to reflections on the self, asking "Is a mirror a sort of glass house? / And, is there a way to see ourselves besides through the glass?"As readers traverse this collection, they learn how the body sings, the many iterations of Mary, what sirens truly think of Odysseus, how a Morning Glory unfurls, and lessons in orthodontics, but most importantly, how to live with absence. Kucharczyk is a master of manipulating time and space through her dynamic use of form, creating a narrative that begs, "After I'm gone, don't bury my body-- / Burn it, and turn it into song."

In this insightful podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Shahrzad Jalai, an accomplished clinical psychologist with a rich background in linguistics and a deep interest in holistic therapy approaches. Our conversation traverses her personal and professional journey, offering profound insights into the nuances of trauma, innovative therapy techniques, and the fascinating convergence of the body and the psyche. What You'll Learn: Integration of Linguistics in Psychology: Discover how Dr. Jalai transitioned from linguistics to psychology and how her background enriches her clinical practice. Understanding Soul Searching: Hear Dr. Jalai's personal story of transformation through therapy and her eventual foray into psychology. Current Trends in Psychological Health: Insights into the growing trend of emotional dysregulation and the quest for safety among clients. Psyche-Body Connection: Explore the role of the nervous system in mental health and Dr. Jalai's holistic approach to therapy. Jungian Psychology & Dreams: Learn about Jung's philosophies, the interplay of dreams and the unconscious, and how they shape therapeutic strategies. Psychoanalytic vs. Cognitive Therapies: A clear distinction between the objective, structured cognitive approaches and the depth-oriented psychoanalytic therapies. Spotlight on Complexes: Uncover the understated influence of complexes from childhood on our adult life, and the therapeutic exploration of these hidden forces. Somatic Approaches to Trauma: Dive into the methodologies like EMDR and Brainspotting used to integrate physiological responses in treating psychological traumas. Key Takeaways: Trauma is not only processed through the mind but is deeply stored within the body, necessitating a holistic treatment approach. Therapies focused on unity and compassion are vital in bridging human chaos and disconnect, offering pathways to greater personal and societal harmony. Exploring personal traumas and histories provides an opportunity not only for healing but also for uncovering the wisdom and strengths gained through adversity. Professionals must navigate transference carefully to maintain personal well-being and effective therapeutic outcomes. Acknowledging and addressing the interconnectedness of body and mind can significantly enhance the efficacy of psychological interventions. Resources For those interested in delving deeper into Dr. Jalai's transformative work, her book "The Fire That Makes Us" weaves personal and clinical insights into a compelling narrative of healing through trauma. Additionally, her upcoming course "Regulate to Rise" offers practical strategies for nervous system regulation, providing tangible tools for those seeking to improve their mental health. Further information, educational materials, and resources from Dr. Jalai can be found on her website and through her social media platforms, aligning the learnings from this podcast into actionable steps for personal growth and healing. https://alignremedy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/alignremedy https://www.youtube.com/@alignremedy Tiktok: @Dr.jalalipsyd LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shahrzad-jalali-psyd-2b547320/ Support the Podcast If you found this conversation enriching and beneficial, subscribe, rate, and review us on your favourite podcast platform.

Today I talked to Elliott Rabin about his book The Biblical Hero: Portraits in Nobility and Fallibility (Jewish Publication Society, 2020). Approaching the Bible in an original way—comparing biblical heroes to heroes in world literature—Rabin addresses a core biblical question: What is the Bible telling us about what it means to be a hero? Focusing on the lives of six major biblical characters—Moses, Samson, David, Esther, Abraham, and Jacob—Rabin examines their resemblance to hero types found in (and perhaps drawn from) other literatures and analyzes why the Bible depicts its heroes less gloriously than do the texts of other cultures. Matthew Miller is a graduate of Yeshivat Yesodei HaTorah. He studied Jewish Studies and Linguistics at McGill for his BA and completed an MA in Hebrew Linguistics at Queen Mary University of London.

I never take it for granted when pioneers in this field grace our show. Having Dr. Raymond Moody, who coined the term 'near-death experience,' and his longtime co-author Paul Perry back on the podcast feels like a homecoming. In this profound conversation, we move beyond the stories and into the concepts, examining the accumulated evidence and the philosophical shifts needed to finally accept what the data shows: that consciousness survives bodily death.

Send us a textMore than half of all deaf students who graduate from high school have reading skills at or below fourth grade level. Research indicates that low literacy makes it difficult for individuals to obtain or maintain any employment, let alone the kind of employment that affords independence, a house, and a family. For well over a decade, Donna Jo Napoli – my guest this episode – and her colleagues have been publishing articles on why deaf students seem to have this literacy deficit. As you will learn, Donna Jo places the blame firmly on a care system that emphasizes technology and convenience over techniques that actually support early language acquisition and social and emotional development. Donna Jo is a Professor of Linguistics and Social Justice at Swarthmore College, the author of fiction and science books, and the co-director of RISE Videobooks. In this two-part episode, Donna Jo and I discuss what can be done to improve the cognitive health of deaf children. This first part focuses on early language and cognitive development.

The power of NLP in enhancing conversational coaching and understanding clients' inner experiences beyond their spoken words. Practical ways to become more attuned to subtle client shifts, including tone, energy, body language, and linguistic patterns.

Can phenomenology, the study of lived experience, be rigorously formalized in mathematics without losing its essence?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, I speak with Professor Robert Prentner, a philosopher and interdisciplinary scientist exploring the intersections of consciousness, AI, phenomenology, and mathematics. Prentner develops the Interface Consciousness Lab, where concepts from category theory, topology, and networks are used to model experience, while also testing these ideas through AI systems and artificial phenomenology. His work bridges philosophy and computation, reimagining how agents construct reality.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) - Introduction: Robert Prentner on interfaces, phenomenology & consciousness (01:00) - From Hoffman to Prentner: extending the Interface Theory of Perception (03:14) - Why neuroscience alone can't solve the mind-body problem (05:42) - Physicalism fails: why consciousness must be taken as fundamental (08:15) - What is an "interface"?

He emphasizes the need for translators to balance accuracy with readability and addresses common misconceptions about translation work. The discussion also highlights the significance of choosing the right translation for personal and communal use, as well as the challenges faced by translation committees in navigating denominational differences.Please visit my website to get more information: https://www.bibleandtheologymatters.com/

In their heyday of the 1970s and 1980s, there were more than 200 - possibly more than 400 - feminist restaurants and coffee shops in the USA and Canada. These places were aiming to change ways of working, and upend the hierarchies of restaurants; to provide food that was ethically sourced and affordable to customers, while providing staff with a decent wage; to signal to particular kinds of people that a space was specifically for them. They didn't always succeed, and often they didn't last for more than a couple of years. But they sure did try things. Dr Alex Ketchum, author of Ingredients for Revolution, a History of American Feminist Restaurants, Cafes, and Coffeehouses, explains the ups and downs of how these places used words.Visit theallusionist.org/breadroses for more information about today's topics, plus a transcript of the episode.Support the show at theallusionist.org/donate and as well as keeping this independent podcast going, you also get behind-the-scenes info about every episode; livestreams with me, Martin and my ever-growing collection of dictionaries, and the charming and nurturing Allusioverse Discord community, where we're watching the current season of Great British Bake Off, and donors are learning that apparently it is a surprisingly productive source of writing inspiration for me.This episode was produced by me, Helen Zaltzman, on the unceded ancestral and traditional territory of xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

https://eggshelltherapy.com/podcast-blog/2025/09/24/drlilie/Today, we are fortunate to have Dr. Lilie Chouliaraki with us. She is a Professor in Media and Communications at the London School of Economics and has spent her career examining how the media discusses human suffering and our own vulnerability.We are going to explore her work on how approaches to helping people have evolved over time. She walks us through the concept of "post-humanitarianism," which examines how our sense of solidarity has shifted. It is less about a shared sense of humanity and more about personal benefit, a kind of self-focused, consumer-style activism.We also explore the highly complex but timely topic of victimhood identity. Dr. Chouliaraki discusses how the language of being a victim has become a powerful political tool. She has examined how this concept of victimhood is sometimes used, or even manipulated, by those who are already privileged to gain more power, a concept she calls the "weaponization of victimhood." This can happen in ways that actually reinforce inequalities rather than challenge them.About  Dr. Lilie Chouliaraki Professor Lilie Chouliaraki is Chair in Media and Communications at LSE. She holds an MA and PhD from Lancaster University Department of Linguistics and a bachelor's degree from the School of Philosophy, University of Athens. In the past twenty-five years, her research has been examining how media shape our ethical and political relationships with vulnerable populations globally and how pain intersects with power relations in disaster news, humanitarian communication, migration, and conflict journalism across historical and digital contexts.Recently, Chouliaraki has focused on histories of victimhood within emotional capitalism, social media, and far-right populism. Her award-winning book "Wronged: The Weaponization of Victimhood" was published by Columbia University Press in 2024.She has received numerous international distincThe Dom Sub Living BDSM and Kink PodcastCurious about Dominance & submission?

In this standalone episode, Julia turns to Dr. Musimbi Kanyoro, global leader and philanthropist, for wisdom on how to lead with hope in a world that often feels overwhelming. Musimbi reflects on lessons from communities she has worked with around the world, including Indigenous women in Peru who remind us that as long as we are alive, we cannot live without hope. She speaks about hope not as naïve optimism, but as an active choice: showing up each day, making small differences, and course-correcting even when change feels impossibly far away. She also shares how to be authentic while carrying hope for others, the importance of joy and resilience in dark times, and the balance between acknowledging doubt and refusing to be paralysed by it. From drawing on history to noticing the smallest sparks of change, Musimbi shows that hope is both a practice and a responsibility. Listen to this episode to discover how to navigate today's world with courage, joy, and hope and why leading with hope is not optional, but essential. About the guest- Musimbi Kanyoro is a globally respected leader in education, philanthropy, and women's empowerment. She is the Chair of the Board at UWC International, guiding a worldwide education movement for peace and sustainability. Previously, she was President and CEO of Global Fund for Women, where she oversaw over $140 million in grantmaking and elevated the organisation's global influence. Musimbi has also held senior leadership roles at the Packard Foundation, World YWCA, and Lutheran World Federation. With a PhD in Linguistics and advanced studies in theology, she is recognised internationally as a trailblazer championing women's leadership, rights, and cross-cultural collaboration.

We're joined by Leif Weatherby, associate professor at NYU, founding director of the Digital Theory Lab, and author of the new Language Machines: Cultural AI and the End of Remainder Humanism, to think with us about AI, structure, and what happens when computation meets language on their own shared turf. Language Machines is easily the best book about AI written this year and is just a killer antidote to so much dreary doomer consensus, it really feels like one of the first truly constructive pieces of writing we've seen out of academia on this subject. This episode follows really well after two others — our talk with Catherine Malabou earlier this summer and the episode with M. Beatrice Fazi about a year ago (both faves). It feels like theory is opening back up again into simultaneously speculative and structural returns, powered in no small part by the challenges posed to conventional theories of language (from Derrida to Chomsky) by Large Language Models. This episode absolutely rips, literally required listening. Structuralism is so back (and we're here for it). Some important references among many from the episode:Roman Jakobson, “Linguistics and Poetics.”N.

Linguistic research has its highs and lows: from staging a traditional wedding to learn about ceremonial words to having your efforts to found a village school disrupted by civil war. Linguistic research can also be about highs and lows: in this case, looking at how high and low tones in Babanki words affect their meaning. In this episode, your host Lauren Gawne gets enthusiastic about the highs and lows of fieldwork in Babanki with Dr. Pius Akumbu, who's a linguist from Babanki, Cameroon, and a Director of Research in African Linguistics at CNRS in the LLACAN Lab (the Languages and Cultures of Africa Lab) in Paris, France. We talk about Professor Akumbu's documentation work on a wide variety of topics from the relationship of Babanki to other Grassfields and Bantu languages, what happens when words have a mysterious extra tone that is only produced under the right circumstances (floating tones), to that time he staged a false wedding to document traditional wedding ceremonial language – and led to a real couple opting for a traditional-style wedding of their own. We also talk about the process of founding a school in his home village to ensure that children have access to primary education in their own language.

We also have over 100 bonus episodes for patrons, with a few interviews there as well. In this month's bonus episode we get enthusiastic about the joys and challenges of translating internet slang with Miguel Sánchez Ibáñez, linguist and translator of Because Internet into Spanish! We talk about why Because Internet was the toughest and also most entertaining book he's ever translated (for some of the same reasons), from coming up with localized Spanish versions of vintage internet memes to making the silly names of pretend people in the example sentences just as silly in Spanish. We also talk about leaving breadcrumbs for future translators in the original text and the special challenge of translocalizing the title: Arroba Lengua isn't a literal translation of Because Internet, but it fits similarly into Spanish internet slang.

A recent Washington Post article explained how most families have a secret language that only they understand, or a "familect" as some linguists call it. Listeners call in to share the words in their family that only they use, which are often conjured in the minds of small children and then used for years down the road.
