Send us a textEver lost time after a night out and thought, “Wait… what did I say?”You're not alone—and it's not just “part of drinking.” In this episode of Sober & Lit, Ruby and Susan pull back the curtain on a topic many avoid: alcohol-induced blackouts. From stories of forgotten conversations and tricky gray areas to the terrifying reality of memory loss after just a few drinks, we shed light on the neurological impact of alcohol and why some people are more susceptible to blackouts than others.✨ What actually happens in your brain when memories disappear?✨ Why do some people black out from just a few drinks—while others don't?✨ And what are the long-term risks no one talks about?This isn't about shame—it's about science. We share our personal blackout, brownout and pass-out stories, explore the brain-based reasons behind them, and debunk the myth that forgetting your night means you just had “too much fun.” Whether you've experienced fuzzy nights, want to understand how alcohol hijacks memory, or you're sober curious and ready to learn, this episode is for you. Stay with us 'til the end—we'll leave you with ways to feel lit  without wiping out your memories.Tune in now and get real about alcohol, blackouts, and reclaiming your presence.Resources mentioned in this episode:

This week I'm speaking with award-winning British author Tessa Hadley about her newest novella, The Party. Set in postwar Bristol, it follows two sisters over a single weekend as they move through a series of gatherings that reveal the class divisions and shifting gender roles of mid-century Britain — that fascinating era between the war and the Beatles.In our conversation, we discuss Hadley's approach to memory, social change, and everyday life, as well as the literary influences that shaped her work. Known for novels like The Past and Free Love, and for her regular stories in The New Yorker, Hadley offers sharp insights into British society and storytelling. It was a great chat, and I hope you enjoy listening to it.Lit with Charles loves reviews. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd be so grateful if you could leave a review of your own, and follow me on Instagram at @litwithcharles. Let's get more people listening – and reading!Tessa Hadley's four books were:Tom's Midnight Garden, by Philippa Pearce (1958)The Rainbow, by D H Lawrence (1915)Guest of Honour, by Nadine Gordimer (1970)Open Secrets, by Alice Munro (1994)

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 23, 2025 is: litany • LIT-uh-nee • noun Litany usually refers to a long list of complaints, problems, etc. It can also refer to a sizable series or set, a lengthy recitation, a repetitive chant, or a particular kind of call-and-response prayer. // Among the television critic's litany of complaints about the new series is the anachronistic costume design. See the entry > Examples: “Out spilled the litany of all the names of all the things you thought I still feared: A big, bad wolf, a two-headed snake, a balding hyena, a beast dropped from the sky, an earthquake, a devil with red bells around its neck. Your words were steady, steeped in the old stories, but my eyes flicked to the window, unafraid. I was too old for easy monsters.” — Raaza Jamshed, What Kept You?: Fiction, 2025 Did you know? How do we love the word litany? Let us count the ways. We love its original 13th century meaning, still in use today, referring to a call-and-response prayer in which a series of lines are spoken alternately by a leader and a congregation. We love how litany has developed in the intervening centuries three figurative senses, and we love each of these as well: first, a sense meaning “repetitive chant”; next, the “lengthy recitation” sense owing to the repetitious—and sometimes interminable—nature of the original litany; and finally, an even broader sense referring to any sizeable series or set. Though litanies of this third sort tend to be unpleasant, we choose today to think of the loveliness found in the idea of “a litany of sonnets by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.”

As we approach Halloween, I figured it was time to get a little gothic on the Lit With Charles podcast. My guest today is writer and literary champion Mairi Kidd, whose new novel Poor Creatures imagines the world of Mary Shelley before she wrote Frankenstein - the people around her, the ideas she was grappling with, and the forces that shaped one of the most enduring stories in literature.Our conversation ranges from the radical literary circles of the early 19th century to the power of Scottish folklore and those places where the veil between worlds feels thin. It was such a pleasure to speak with Mairi, and learn a little bit more about a fascinating writer's history.Lit with Charles loves reviews. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd be so grateful if you could leave a review of your own, and follow me on Instagram at @litwithcharles. Let's get more people listening – and reading!Mairi Kidd's four books were:Possession, A. S. Byatt (1990)The Owl Service, Alan Garner (1967)Sunset Song, Lewis Grassic Gibbon (1932)The Sea Road, Margaret Elphinstone (2000)

A gyógyíthatatlan betegségben szenvedő Mario szeretne életre szóló emléket adni mit sem sejtő fiának, a tízéves Litónak, ezért úgy dönt, hogy magával viszi egy utolsó útra Pedro nevű kamionján. Az otthon maradó anya, Elena ezalatt a könyvekben és az írásban keres vigaszt, s miközben lélekben próbál fölkészülni férje halálára, ő maga egy még kockázatosabb felfedezőútra indul, amely saját morális határait feszegeti. Bár egyikük sem képes elmondani a másiknak a teljes igazságot, az anya, az apa és a fiú monológjai megrendítő párbeszédet alkotnak, rávilágítva arra, hogyan alakítja át az embert az elkerülhetetlen veszteség tudata, s miként szolgálhat a szó vagy akár a szexualitás ereje ennek ellensúlyozására. A világ sokszínű, de hogy mennyit érzékelünk belőle, az rajtunk múlik – a nyitottságunkon, és azon, hogy van-e bátorságunk valóban megismerni a minket körülvevő valóságot, kilépni a buborékjainkból.  A Kreatív Európa program támogatásával útjára indított, a Helikon Kiadó és Margó Irodalmi Fesztivál közös gondozásában megjelenő Margó Könyvek sorozat ehhez a felfedezőtúrához ad muníciót 18 európai ország 18 kortárs szerzőjének műveivel. A hangos beleolvasókban ezekből a kötetekből mutatunk egy-egy részletet Friedenthal Zoltán tolmácsolásában.

When Marion pops up on Zoom with her curls blown out to smooth newscaster perfection, it's a hot topic and one that offers a perfect lead-in to the first poem up for discussion, “Your Hair Wants Cutting” by this episode's featured poet, Michael Montlack. The three poems we're considering take inspiration from the Mad Hatter character in Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. We discuss, Slushies, how much, if any, contextual framing is needed to guide the reader when poems refer to a character who resides in our collective imagination. We also talk about local and regional idioms, and for Kathy, how difficult they are to unlearn (shout out to Pittsburgh!). Marion accidentally bestows a new nickname on Jason. Dagne has an opinion about how speech is rendered within a poem: italics or quotation marks. She's team italics, Slushies, which are you? While thinking about the line in these poems; Marion refers to Jason's excellent essay on the history and theory of the line from his book Nothingism: Poetry at the End of Print Culture. Another poem in the batch has Marion recalling Jason's poem “Wester.” As always, thanks for listening! At the table: Dagne Forrest, Samantha Neugebauer, Jason Schneiderman, Kathleen Volk Miller, Marion Wrenn, and Lisa Zerkle Michael Montlack's third poetry collection COSMIC IDIOT will be published by Saturnalia. He is the editor the Lambda Finalist essay anthology My Diva: 65 Gay Men on the Women Who Inspire Them (University of Wisconsin Press). His work has appeared in Poetry Daily, Prairie Schooner, Cincinnati Review, Lit, Epoch, Alaska Quarterly Review, Phoebe and other magazines. In 2022, his poem won the Saints & Sinners Poetry Contest for LGBTQIA+ poets. He lives in NYC and teaches poetry at NYU and CUNY City College. https://www.facebook.com/michael.montlack https://www.instagram.com/michaelmontlack (website) https://www.michaelmontlack.com/ “Your Hair Wants Cutting” my grandmother would say, sitting there at her window, monitoring the restless crows. Her robe nearly as ancient as she. Since when are you concerned with fashion? I once dared to ask. I was seventeen, restless as those crows. I knew she wasn't talking about my curls. Plumage, she used to call it when I was a boy. Sit down, little peacock—your hair wants cutting. Even then I knew it was a cutting remark. Laden. Throwing cold kettle water on my fire. I reminded myself that she was a widow. And was glad that at least I would never cause a woman to suffer such grief. I reminded her how I donned a hat most days. She stared me up and down, her eyes like the ocean's green cold. Clever. Your kind seems to have a clever answer for everything … I swallowed the indictment. Why not make yourself useful, she said, putting down her tea cup, eyeing the trash on her tray. I was glad to oblige, happy to depart before she could notice the low waist of my trousers, let alone the height of my heels. Muchier Picture me on a grand terrace, tipping my hat. Crossing a bridge over the river of defeat— it's definitely a state of ascent. Being owed rather than owing. A blatant triumph against the conventional. A la Lord Byron. A monocle without glass, worn for style. It's an advance for a memoir about a life you haven't yet lived. Bound to be lost on some but admired by all. Likely absent during the lessons on common subjects: Algebra, Classic Literature, Biology. More devoted to the mastery of the quaintest arts: Porcelain, Calligraphy, Tapestry Weaving, Drag. As ephemeral and ethereal as a bubble. It's not something you adopt. It's something that abducts you. Enviers call it utter madness, but the muchiest of the muchier won't even fathom the phrase. Inheritance There wasn't much to leave—my sister, also suspiciously unwed, took the cottage and the wagon. But our mother had insisted that the tea set should be mine. “It's dainty and a bit chipped. Like you,” she chortled on her deathbed. I failed to see the humor but took it just the same. Knowing my sister would likely surrender it to the church, where the nuns might put it to good use but never appreciate its finery, as that would be vanity. I much rather hear my motley chums slurp from it as they sit steeped in my ridiculous riddles. I never admitted how I crafted them at night, alone in bed, in the quiet twilight, the hour I imagined reading bedtime stories to the children I never had. An apprentice son would've been nice, to hand down millinery techniques. Instead I had the ghost of one, there in my workshop, where imaginary fights erupted over whose turn it was to sweep up the felt or sharpen the scissors. Of course, I appeared mad, a much better impression to leave than the riddle of my bachelorhood. Sometimes I wanted to smash the porcelain cups, chuck them at that bloody caterpillar stinking up the forest with his opium. Why not? There was no one to inherit my pittance. No one to be trusted with my legacy… until the appearance of this girl, at once strange yet so familiar. I quite liked her. The way she held her own with me. If ever I had a daughter, I would have wanted her to be as brave as she. Defending the poor Knave of Hearts, accused of stealing the Queen's tarts. There in that courtroom, I almost lost my head but finally found a beneficiary.

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**In this episode of Film is Lit, we're joined by our good friend and fellow Stephen King enthusiast, Mike Feser, as we take "The Long Walk" - both literally and figuratively - through the 2025 film adaptation of King's chilling 1979 novel.

In a captivating and inspiring exclusive on the Ash Said It Show, founder Lilith of Lit with Lilit LLC dives deep into her philosophy of turning everyday luxury into a meaningful lifestyle. This interview summary highlights how Lilith is pioneering a unique space in the Atlanta candle market by blending high-end decor with immersive DIY experiences.

She explains her aim to redefine 'lit' beyond just a good time, leveraging it to encompass creativity, purpose, and community.

This unique vision transforms a simple product into a complete sensory and visual experience, ensuring the candle is a statement piece long before the match is struck. The Unique "Lit Experience" in Atlanta While candle-making classes are popular, Lilith details what makes the Lit with Lilit "Lit Experience" a stand-out in the competitive Atlanta market. She emphasizes creating an atmosphere that is not just instructional, but genuinely joyful, creative, and memorable.

Scent as a Storyteller Discover Lilith's innovative approach to scent creation.

We don't have enough poetry on this show, and it's time to change that. My guest today is Richard Scott, a contemporary British poet known for his bold, lyrical explorations of queer identity, desire, shame, and the politics of the body.

Send us a textYou quit drinking, you're feeling lit, and suddenly… real life crashes back in. Now what?In this milestone 90th episode of Sober & Lit, Coaches Susan Larkin and Ruby Williams get radically honest about the messy, beautiful, non-linear reality of life after alcohol. Because yes—sobriety brings clarity, joy, and deep transformation… but it doesn't come with a magic wand. What happens when the unicorns disappear and you're still dealing with family tension, career pivots, sleep struggles, or your own inner critic?Have you ever asked yourself, “Shouldn't I be happier by now?”Ruby and Susan pull back the curtain on their own post-alcohol journeys—sharing the tools, mindset shifts, and community support that helped them navigate everything from financial fear to burnout to unrealistic expectations of ‘wellness perfection.' They explore emotional sobriety, building new emotional coping muscles, and the freedom that comes from being imperfect and empowered.Whether you're newly alcohol-free, sober-curious, or deep in your journey, this episode is a warm reminder: you're not doing it wrong if life still feels hard sometimes. You're just doing it human.

Today on the show, I speak with Natasha Williams.  She has an MA from the University of Pennsylvania and attended the Bread Loaf School of English and the Bread Loaf Writers Conference. Her memoir and debut book, THE PARTS OF HIM I KEPT (Apprentice House. 2025), is an intimate account of a daughter's coming of age in the face of her father's schizophrenic unraveling. Williams investigates the limits of our medical and cultural understanding of schizophrenia while chronicling the shared burden and benefits of caring for a mentally ill family member. In the tradition of Ocean Vuong's On Earth We Are Briefly Gorgeous and Robert Kolker's Hidden Valley Road, this is one family's story that asks us to consider the ways mental illness is as much a social issue as a biological condition and illuminates ways we find hope, and even thrive in the face of the extraordinary challenge of mental illness.Excerpts and essays have been published in the Bread Loaf Journal, Change Seven, LIT, Memoir Magazine, Onion River Review, Writers Digest, Writers Read, Post Road, and South Dakota Review.Today Natasha shares about her childhood and the special if not sometimes challenging relationship she had with her farther. We get a glimpse into the stories she shares in her book and the reasons for writing it.

Horory čteme, koukáme na ně, bojíme se a milujeme to. Právě o tom, z čeho a proč máme strach a co nás na tom láká, si na živém natáčení podcastu Lit povídali Kateřina Surmanová, Petra Klabouchová a Tonda Tesař.

Send us a textWhat if ditching alcohol is the exact thing that sets your creative fire ablaze?In this electrifying episode of Sober & Lit, Coaches Ruby and Susan sit down with actor, writer, and founder of Creative Sobriety, Kristen Baer—a powerhouse voice redefining what it means to be an alcohol-free woman in a world soaked in wine culture. From stage lights to mom life, Kristen shares how choosing sobriety in February 2020 became the radical act that set her free—from self-doubt, perfectionism, and societal expectations.What happens when you stop numbing and start expressing?This episode dives deep into how alcohol subtly silences women's power—and how sobriety becomes the amplifier. Kristen opens up about how creativity, authenticity, and connection exploded once she put down the glass and picked up her voice. You'll hear about her journey navigating the entertainment industry, parenting pressures, and the toxic normalization of drinking to cope.We're talking:Creative confidence in sobrietyBusting the “mommy wine” mythWhy Gen Z is ditching booze (and leading a sober revolution)How women in midlife are reclaiming joy and voiceAnd why being alcohol-free is anything but boringWhether you're sober-curious or alcohol-free and fired up, this episode will inspire you to show up louder, bolder, and more lit than ever—without a single drop.

In this episode of Lit with Charles, I speak with Alexander Starritt, author of the novels We Germans (2020) and Drayton and Mackenzie (2024).We Germans is a devastatingly humane wartime confession: an elderly German writes a long letter to his British grandson about serving on the Eastern Front, with the grandson's present-day interjections sharpening the moral contrasts between war and ordinary life. Drayton and Mackenzie is a rare, gripping business novel that follows two friends from graduation into the high-stakes world of building a clean-energy company, where private choices collide with macro forces - finance cycles, technology, and industrial realities.We talk about structure (letters, interjections, and the occasional omniscient lens), how fiction can engage with the “big stuff” shaping our lives (economics, climate, technology), why industrial solutions - not apps - sit at the core of decarbonisation, and how character is revealed gradually, the way real people change. We also explore Alexander's rural upbringing, German heritage, and the literary influences that inform his work - from Larkin's melancholy clarity to Tolstoy's vast social canvas.If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review and follow me on Instagram @litwithcharles.Alexander Starritt's four picks were:“Dockery and Son,” by Philip Larkin (1964)The Shipping News, by Annie Proulx (1993)Red Plenty, by Francis Spufford (2010)War and Peace, by Leo Tolstoy (1869)

This week, we conclude our discussion of Jane Austen's Sense And Sensibility. How does the text position WIlloughby as an interesting villain?

Jaké to je, když jste si jistá, že dítě nechcete, ale váš partner po něm touží? Své o tom ví Majka Kukačková, která téma zpracovala v knize Pažitková smyčka. V podcastu Lit mluvila o rozhodování, které jí změnilo život, i o tom, proč ji mrzí, že se lidé soustředí spíš na její vietnamský původ než na téma knihy.

Send us a textAre Sober People Missing Out… or Finally Tapping In?Welcome to Sober & Lit! In this episode, Ruby and Susan bust one of the biggest lies about sobriety: that going alcohol-free means missing out on fun, freedom, and connection. Is it true—or have we just been sold a clever illusion?What if the real fear isn't missing out—but never fully showing up?What if quitting drinking is the invitation to finally feel lit from within?We unpack the FOMO myth, spill honest stories about navigating social events sober, and share how ditching the drink actually amplified joy, confidence, and community. We also explore how social media and drinking culture fuel comparison, and what happens when you flip FOMO into JOMO—the Joy of Missing Out.Expect resources, real talk, and personal practices that light you up.If you've ever wondered, “Will I lose my social life if I quit drinking?”—this episode is your empowering reframe. Spoiler: what you gain might just blow your mind.

In this episode of Lit with Charles, I speak with Ben Pester, author of the novel The Expansion Project.Blending corporate satire with surrealism, The Expansion Project follows Tom, who brings his daughter Hen to Capmeadow Business Park for “Bring Your Daughter to Work Day.” When Hen vanishes without a trace, Tom's reality begins to unravel. Decades later, an unnamed Archivist pieces together the story from the ruins of the mysterious “Expansion Project.”We discuss Ben's approach to structure, surrealism, and storytelling, and the books that have influenced his creative process.If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review and follow me on Instagram @litwithcharles.Ben Pester's four books were:Way Far Away, by Evelio Rosero (2024)Sweet Home, by Wendy Erskine (2018)Something Happened, by Joseph Heller (1974)Self Portrait in Green, by Marie Ndiaye (2005)

Today we're joined with Dr. Angela Weisl who you will soon learn is not only an accomplished Medieval Literature scholar but a passionate and very wise/learned (using a Medieval term) English professor. Angela joins us from Seton Hall University where she has taught everything from Literature of the Adolescence (YA Lit), Chaucer (all things The Canterbury Tales), Medieval Lit, and Women's Lit. Angela has been teaching at Seton Hall since 1995 where she has served as both Director of Graduate Studies and the Chair of the English department. There is so much pedagogical ground that we cover with Angela including why she's so passionate about teaching Medieval Lit. since it allows her to explore contemporary issues through a historical lens. And if you don't know about Beowulf, you definitely will be convinced to read it after this conversation. As the previous chair of the English department, Angela explains how she made clear to both students and colleagues that English majors develop incredible critical thinking, reading, and writing skills that are valuable across many career paths! She also addresses how rapid changes in technology has not only changed our students' learning habits, but it requires us to rethink our own teaching approaches.

Send us a textWhat if eating more could actually help you feel better, weigh less, and ditch the drink for good? In this powerful episode of Sober & Lit, Susan and Ruby sit down with Dr. Ginny Trieweiler—a psychologist, certified health coach, and author of Slender for Good After 50—to unpack the radical idea that you don't need restriction, calorie counting, or alcohol to feel lit, vibrant, and free.Ginny gets real about her own midlife transformation: facing down chronic pain, prediabetes, emotional eating, and nightly drinking—and the four mindset and nutrition shifts that helped her reclaim her health without ever going on another diet. Together, we dive into how alcohol and food often share the same emotional roots, why “less is more” is a myth, and how to break the cycle of overdrinking and undereating once and for all.If you've ever said “I'll start Monday,” wrestled with weight or wine, or felt like you were too old to change, this episode is your permission slip to nourish, rebel, and rise. Tune in and discover how food freedom and alcohol freedom go hand-in-hand—especially after 50._______Ginny's website: https://slenderforgood.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slenderforgood/Get the book for only $4.99:  slenderforgood.com/slender-book_______Don't forget to follow and subscribe and leave a review!

Send us a textOriginally drafted in 1939, the Prohibition-era gangster novel The Girl by Meridel Le Sueur remained unpublished for nearly 40 years. Le Sueur used the intervening decades to transform her work into a powerful narrative, focusing on the lives of marginalized women in Depression-era America.
