Experience the magic that is Judge John Hodgman and Bailiff Jesse Thorn LIVE in Brookline! In this episode of Road Court, the Judge decides how much of those tasty leftovers are worth saving, marvels at the wonders of a Bronze Hotdog (still not a sandwich!), and litigates whether an uncle who hates A Christmas Carol is, in fact, a Scrooge. Does an apple pie that is extremely close to a cheesecake deserve an award for pie, or is it stolen culinary valor?Huge thanks to Samantha Couture from the Massachusetts Historical Society!

In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely engages in a fascinating conversation with Paul Austin, a leading voice in the responsible use of psychedelics for personal and professional growth.  This discussion moves far beyond the stereotypes to explore how these powerful tools can serve as catalysts for profound change, especially for women navigating the complexities of midlife. Dr. Lovely and Paul delve into the foundational concept of microdosing, explaining what it is and how a structured protocol can gently enhance neuroplasticity, improve mood, and increase energy without any intoxicating effects.  Paul clarifies the distinct characteristics of different psychedelics, like psilocybin and LSD, and offers practical, sage advice on how to begin this journey safely and intentionally. The conversation also touches on the critical importance of "set and setting," the essential role of skilled facilitation, and how these substances can help to soften the rigid patterns of thinking that often hold us back.  If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or curious about alternative paths to mental and emotional wellness, this episode offers a fresh, educational, and hopeful perspective on a topic that is rapidly evolving in our modern world.

Bring compassion into your breath through this meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with the poem, "The Most Important Thing", by Marie Marchand from her book, Mostly Sweet, Lovely, Human Things.This version ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.The Most Important ThingI asked the stars:What is the most important thing?The panorama of bright sentinels remainedsilent and just keep shining.So I repeated my question, this time imploringly:What is the most important thing?It was urgent. My time here is limited.I deserve clarity. I deserve truth.Summer's nightwind caressed my face.I accepted this show of earthly tenderness,of warm reassurance, but divinedno answer from the twinkling firmamentabove. The stars just kept shiningwith an irksome persistence.Maybe I didn't deserve an answer.Or maybe I wasn't approaching thiswith enough reverence. So, insteadof looking up, I bowed my headand looked within.What is the most important thing?I whispered so only I could hear. Then behindmy eyes, a blend of space and light emerged.The whole universe opened up inside of me.There was silence. There was peace.The stars aligned.And without makinga sound, they just kept shining.-Marie MarchandFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

The Hatters host fellow promotion chasers Bolton Wanderers at Kenilworth Road in a huge League One clash on Saturday afternoon.  Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to look ahead to a match which offers the home side another chance to lay a real marker down.  The boys pick out a couple of familiar threats within the Bolton side and a couple of dangermen who need to be kept quiet over the course of the afternoon.  The attention then turns to the home side and any potential changes to the XI and the best ways of getting joy against a Wanderers outfit who are unbeaten in their last six matches.  All this and plenty more, including the score predictions, on the longest-running, award-winning Luton Town podcast!

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251127dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” Luke 23:42 The Best Thanksgiving Ever What was your best Thanksgiving ever? I admit that my Thanksgiving memories are fairly well mixed because what happens from year to year is so similar. It’s hard to distinguish one from another. That's part of what makes celebrating Thanksgiving so special for so many people: the fact that we repeat what we did last year and the years before that. After all, how would most react to the suggestion that this year we should eat burgers? We don’t normally think of Good Friday as a day of thanksgiving, even though it is called Good. It’s a somber day on which we recall the suffering and pain that our Savior, Jesus, endured to make perfect payment for the sins of the world. Good Friday is the day that Jesus cried out in terrible spiritual agony, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46). It doesn’t seem appropriate to consider it a day of thanksgiving. And yet that’s what Good Friday was in heaven: Thanksgiving Day! And why? Because on that day, a sinner repented. It was one of the men hanging there with Jesus, to be exact. What did repentance mean? Not that this man covered his head with ashes and walked around with a burlap sack on. No, true repentance means rending our hearts, not our clothes. It means acknowledging our complete brokenness before God—and the sin that results from our nature—but then seeing that in Jesus we have perfect forgiveness and salvation for time and eternity. This man’s repentance was simply and beautifully expressed with a few words: “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” Lovely repentance. And what happened in heaven? Thanksgiving broke out, just as Jesus once promised, “I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent” (Luke 15:7). At least for that one sinner, it was the best Thanksgiving ever because of what it meant that day and what it will mean for him for all eternity. It won’t be about memories and traditions that eventually fade. It means life everlasting! Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank you for suffering what you did on that Friday we call good. Amen.

What if pursuing what is lovely could transform every part of your life?In this inspiring episode of The Collide Podcast, we sit down with Jenn Johnson to explore her journey as a worship leader, songwriter, author, and mom.

【準備運動】お腹のポンプを起動する3ステップ発声練習の前に、まずはお腹のポンプを動かしやすくするウォームアップを行います。いつもの「あくび」の動作にひと手間加えてみましょう。STEP 1：床に向かって息を吐き切るまずは息をしっかり「吐く」ことに意識を向けます。床（地面）をグッと押すようなイメージを持ちます。「ふーっ」と5カウントかけて、同じ強さで息を吐き切ります。吐き切ったら、その反動で自然に息が入ってくるのを感じながら一息つきます。STEP 2：あくびの「Hah」をプラス次に、吐き切った後の「吸気」を利用して声を出します。STEP 1と同じように息を吐き切ります。一息つく瞬間に、あくびをするように**「Hah（はぁ〜）」**と声を出します。この時、お腹が背中に向かってグーッと近づいていく感覚があればOKです。ポイント：構えずに、息を吸った反動で自然に「Hah」と出すのがコツです。STEP 3：フレーズを乗せる最後に、STEP 2の流れでフレーズを言ってみます。息を吐き切る → 一息つく（Hah） → 一呼吸置く。その深い呼吸のまま、"What a lovely weather today, isn't it?" と発声します。息をしっかり吐くことで、反動でお腹の底まで深い息がシュッと入り、喉奥の声の響きが太く、深くなります。【実践】ストレスワードで鍛える「英語声」ここからはフレーズを細かく分解し、英語のリズムを作る「ストレスワード（強勢語）」のタイミングに合わせて、太い息を吐く練習をします。重要なルール：助走はつけず、いきなりワードに入ります。お腹を背中に近づける動きと発声を連動させます。1. "What" 〜 /w/ に厚みを出す 〜日本語の「ワ」よりも、もっと喉奥から響かせます。意識する点： /w/ の音にごつごつとした厚みが出るように、お腹を使って「What?」と発音します。2. "Lovely" 〜 /l/ を太く響かせる 〜意識する点： /l/ の舌の動きに合わせて、喉がしっかり鳴っている感覚を確認します。エッジ（角）の取れた丸い響きを目指しましょう。3. "Weather" 〜 息の太さをキープ 〜意識する点： お腹のポンプを止めずに、息と声が太くなる感覚を維持したまま「Weather」と言います。4. "Today" 〜 立体的な /t/ /d/ 〜日本語の「トゥデイ」のように平坦にならないように注意します。意識する点： /t/ や /d/ などの破裂音が続く部分です。ここでもお腹を背中に近づける動きを連動させ、日本語のタ行・ダ行よりも立体的に響かせます。5. "Isn't it" 〜 母音の角を取る 〜日本語話者は「イ（E）」の音で喉が締まり、音が鋭くなり（エッジが立ち）がちです。意識する点： 「Isn't」ではなく、お腹の底から**「Ezn-it（イズネ）」**のように、柔らかく弾力を出しながら発音してみてください。こうすることで喉の開きが保たれ、丸い響きになります。仕上げ：フルフレーズで通し練習最後に、全ての単語を繋げて一つの流れで発音します。What a lovely weather today, isn't it?単語ごとに区切るのではなく、お腹のポンプを次々と動かしながら、最後まで一息で喋りきるイメージです。これにより、英語特有の「太いブレスフロー」に乗った安定した英語声が完成します。【上級編】TED Talkで長文にチャレンジ短いフレーズで感覚が掴めたら、少し長めの文章でも練習してみましょう。 言語学者John McWhorter氏のTED Talk『4 Reasons to Learn a New Language』の冒頭部分は、ゆったりとした話し方でストレスワードを追いやすく、練習に最適です。The language I'm speaking right now is on its way to becoming the world's universal language, for better or for worse: Let's face it. この文章でも、「内容語（意味を持つ単語）」のタイミングでしっかりとお腹を使い、太い息を吐くことを意識してください。

In an era where peptides are dominating wellness conversations, it can be challenging to separate groundbreaking information from mere buzz.  In this educational episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with the esteemed Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, a specialist in regenerative and cellular medicine, to provide a masterclass on these powerful signaling molecules and how they can help at menopause. The conversation dives deep into the critical concept that our endogenous peptide levels, much like our hormones, decline with age. This foundational understanding frames peptide therapy not as a futuristic trend, but as a potential method for replenishing what our bodies are naturally losing. Listeners will gain invaluable insight into specific peptides and their applications. Dr. Yurth details how growth hormone secretagogues can support cellular repair and improve sleep quality, and why thymic peptides are vital for a well-educated immune system, especially as we age.  She also explores the significant repair benefits of peptides like BPC-157 and Thymosin Beta-4 for gut and joint health. Furthermore, the discussion reframes the conversation around GLP-1 agonists, moving beyond weight loss to highlight their promising role in cognitive, cardiac, and metabolic health when used at appropriate doses. Throughout the episode, Dr. Yurth emphasizes that peptides are a sophisticated tool that works best on a solid foundation of optimized hormones, quality sleep, and proper nutrition. She also provides crucial guidance on the importance of working with a thoroughly trained clinician and sourcing peptides from reputable compounding pharmacies to ensure safety and efficacy.  This is an essential listen for anyone looking to understand the true therapeutic potential and responsible application of peptides.

Episode 86 Recalling Brigid by Orna Ross Orna Ross reads ‘Recalling Brigid' and discusses the poem with Mark McGuinness. https://media.blubrry.com/amouthfulofair/media.blubrry.com/amouthfulofair/content.blubrry.com/amouthfulofair/86_Recalling_Brigid_by_Orna_Ross.mp3 This poem is from: Poet Town: The Poetry of Hastings & Thereabouts edited by Richard Newham Sullivan Available from: Poet Town is available from: The publisher: Moth Light Press Amazon: UK | US Recalling Brigid by Orna Ross Queen of queens, they called herin the old books, the Irish Mary.Never washed her hands, nor her headin sight of a man, never lookedinto a man's face. She was goodwith the poor, multiplied food,gave ale to lepers. Among birds,call her dove; among trees, a vine.A sun among stars. Such was the sort of womanpreferred as the takeover was made:consecrated cask, throne to His glory,intercessor. Brigid said nothing to any of this,the reverence, or the upbraidings.Her realm is the lacuna,silence her sceptre,her own way of life its own witness. Out of desire, the lure of lustor the dust of great deeds,she was distorted:to consort, mother-virgin,to victim or whore. I am not as womanlya woman as she.So I say: Let us see.Let us say how she is the one. It is she who conceivesand she who does bear.She who knitted us in the womband who will cradle our tomb-fraying. Daily she offers her arms,clothes us in compassion,smiles as we wrigglefor baubles. Yes, it is she who lifts you aloftto whisper through your ears,to kiss your eyes,to touch her coolingcheek to your cheek. Interview transcript Mark: Orna, where did this poem come from? Orna: Hi Mark. Yeah, so it's one of a collection that I'm working on, around Irish women from history and myth. And these are women that I grew up with, as a young person, receiving a sort of a typical Irish education, if you like. Orna: And so some of them are saints, some of them are mythological people. Well, saints are also mythological people! Some of them are historical figures who've been mythologized. And I just wanted to go back in and do my own exploration of each of these women because everybody else had. So I've been gathering these poems over a long time, but it actually started with this one. It started with Brigid. And Brigid is a figure from ancient Irish mythology. And she was Christianized into a Roman Catholic saint. She is the patron saint of Ireland. One of. You've probably heard of the other one. Patrick. You probably haven't heard of this one: Brigid. And, so many things have been projected on her. And it's interesting to read what, what survives of what is written about her because what's written earlier on in time is quite different to what's written later on. And she continues to be an inspiration. Her feast day is the first day of spring in Ireland, which in Ireland is the first day of February. It's much earlier than it is in England. And she's just an interesting, personification of the female virtues as they've been perceived over time. Mark: So you said she was written about differently in earlier times to more recent times, which I think is pertinent to how you're exploring that in the poem. So maybe you could just give us a brief summary of that. Orna: Yes. So I, the poem refers to ‘the takeover'. And by that, I kind of mean the Christian, but hand in hand with Christian goes the patriarchal, takeover of old images of women in general. And Brigid is part of that. So earlier, renditions about her tend to focus on her as a healer, as a wise woman, as a very compassionate person, ‘ale to lepers' is one of the, images in the poem. Whereas later versions tend to emphasize her holiness and her saintliness and, her goodness and I suppose what we would typically think is a good, religious, icon. So it's interesting just to read how that changes and differs as we go. And she also then had her detractors, which is where we get to the ideas, about women generally that are in the poem – the consort, mother, victim, whore, those kinds of ideas. You see them brushing against Brigid over time, but she comes through intact actually, as a woman in her own right. And these don't tend to stick to her as they have stuck to others. Mark: And sometimes when poets use mythological figures like this, there's a kind of a critique of, ‘Well, that's a little bit old fashioned, it's poetry with a capital P'. But reading this and listening to you, it kind of really underlines to me that mythology and religion are really quite present in Ireland. Orna: Oh, gosh, yes! The past is very present in Ireland still, in lots of ways. And. It's interesting. I suppose it's something to do with being a small island on the very edge of, in inverted commas, civilization. Although the Irish like to think they civilized Europe during the dark ages by sending our saints and our scholarship, our images of people like Brigid, the truth is that old ways lingered on a long time, and particularly the part of Ireland where I grew up. So, I grew up in County Wexford down in the small bottom right-hand corner, the very southeast tip of Ireland. Around it, there is a river and a small hill that kind of cuts that area off. And around County Wexford in general, there are larger hills and a big river that cuts Wexford off. So they tended to travel by sea more than road, people from that part of the world. And it was the first part of Ireland to be conquered the Norman conquest and, Old English lingered there right up until, well, there are still words that are used in Wexford that aren't used elsewhere. Carols and songs as well. So other parts of Ireland and, obviously England, had moved on, it but kind of got stuck there. So I'm just kind of pointing up the fact that yes, things stayed, passed on in an oral kind of culture and an oral tradition. And hedge schools and such like, long after such things had faded away in other parts of Europe. Mark: And you say Old English rather than Irish was lingering? Orna: That's right. And, because they had, well, the Normans came to England first Hastings, actually where I live now. One of the reasons I'm here, I think is that I felt a lot of similarities between here and Wexford and I think the Norman invasion in both places, it was part of that. So yeah, a hundred years after the Normans landed in Hastings, they were brought over to Wexford by an Irish chieftain to help him win one of his battles with another Irish chieftain. So English came with the Normans to Ireland. Mark: Right. And this is another amazing thing about Ireland, is the kind of the different layers, like archaeological layers of language. You've got Irish, you've got Old English, you've got Norman French, you've got Latin from the church, you've got Norse from the Vikings and so on. It's incredibly rich. Orna: Yes. More diverse, I think. And again, because of its cut off nature, these things lasted longer, I think, because that's also true of England, but the overlay is stronger and so they don't make their way through. Mark: Right, right. And the ghosts can peep through. So, okay, that's the historical cultural context. What does Brigid mean to you and why did you choose her as the first figure in this sequence? Orna: She chose me, I think. I very much feel this poem, you know, some poems are made and some arrive and this one arrived. I wanted to do something to celebrate her. That was all I knew because it was the first day of spring, which I always loved, that first day of February. You know, when winter is really beginning to bite and you feel, I mean, there is no sign of spring except some crocuses maybe peeking up and, uh, a few spring flowers making a little promise. But usually the weather is awful, but it's the first day of spring and it's, been a really important day for me from that point of view. And then the fact that it does, you know, the fact that Patrick is such a great big deal everywhere and Brigid isn't known at all. So that's kind of where I started and I just knew I'd like to write a poem. And then it was one of those ones that I, if I had set out to write a poem about Brigid, I don't think this is what I would have written. It just arrived. And I found that I was thinking about lots of things and as the first poem of this sequence, I wanted to say some of the things about womanhood in the poem, and I, well, I realised I did, because that's what emerged. So for me, it's very much about that kind of quiet aspect of, so, you know, we've got feminism, which talks very much about women's rights to do whatever it is they want to do in the outer world. But for me, she, in this poem, represents the inner, the quiet virtues, if you like, always there for us. We're not always there for them, but they're always there and active in our lives all the time, and I wanted to celebrate that in the poem. So that's what, you know, I got, the rough draft just came pouring out, and that's what I found myself wanting to bring out. Mark: And the title, ‘Recalling Brigid', you know, I was thinking about that word ‘recalling', because it could mean ‘remembering', but it could also mean ‘calling' or ‘summoning'. Orna: Yes, deliberately chosen for both of those meanings, yes, very well spotted there, poetry reader. Mark: Well, you know, this is a very ancient function of poetry, isn't it? And it's where it kind of shades into charm or spells, to summon, or invoke a spirit or some kind of otherworldly creature or being. Orna: Absolutely. I think you've got the heart of what the poem is trying to do there. It is about calling forth, something, as I say, that's there, that we're all, you know, is there for all of us in our lives, but that we're not always aware of it. And our culture actively stifles it, and makes it seem like it's less important than it is. And so, yes, very much exactly all the words, the beautiful words you've just used there. I was hoping this poem would tap into that. Mark: Very much. And, you know, the beginning, ‘Queen of Queens, they called her'. So presumably this is in the old pre-Christian days, ‘they called her'. So there's that word ‘calling' again, and you give us the kind of the gloss, ‘in the old books, the Irish Mary'. And then you introduce the takeover: ‘such was the sort of woman / preferred as the takeover was made:' And then you get the other version. And then you've got: ‘Brigid said nothing to any of this,' which I think is really wonderful that she keeps – so you've gone from ‘they' in the past, ‘what they called her'. And then Brigid keeping her own counsel about this. She said nothing to any of this, ‘the reverence, or the upbraidings'. And then we get you where you say, ‘I am not as womanly / a woman as she. / So I say: let us see. / Let us say how she is the one. // It is she who conceives, and she who does bear.' Lovely, beautiful repetitions and shifts in there. So you really, you step forward into the poem at that point. Orna: I really wanted to, to place myself in relation to, to her and to all the women in this collection. Which isn't out yet, by the way, it's not finished. So I've got another three to go. No, I really wanted to place myself in relation to the women in the poems. That was an important part of the project for me. And I do that, you know, lots of different ways. But this poem, the first one is very much about, I suppose, calling out, you know, the ‘recalling' that you were talking about there a few moments ago, calling out the qualities. That we tend to overlook and that are attributed to Brigid as a womanly woman. And so, yeah, that's, that's what I was saying. I'm more of a feminist woman who is regarded by some as less womanly. so there is a, that's an interesting debate for me. That's a very interesting, particularly now at this time, I think, it's very interesting to talk about, you know, what is a feminist and what is feminism. And I personally believe in feminisms, lots of different, you know, it's multiple sort of thing. But these poems are born of a, you know, a feminist poet's sensibility without a doubt. So in this first one, I just wanted to call out, you know, the womanly virtues, if you like. Mark: Yeah. So I get a sense of you kind of starting as a tuning fork for different ideas and voices, calling her different things. And then you shift into, ‘Let us see. / Let us say…' I love the description earlier on where you said it's a celebration because by the end of the poem, it really is. It's all her attributes, isn't it? ‘It is she who conceives / and she who does bear.' And so on. Again, how easy was it for you to let go and, and, and step into that? Because it's kind of a thing that it's a little bit, it's not what we associate with modern poetry, is it? Orna: No, not at all. Not at all. But I had to ages ago, give up on modern poetry. If I wanted to write poetry, I had to drop so much, so much that I learned, you know, English Lit. was my original degree. And, you know, I, I was in love with poetry from a very young age. So, I learned everything I could about everything. And then I had to drop it all because I didn't write, I didn't write any poems between the end of my teens and my early forties when I lost a very dear friend. And then when I went on, shortly afterwards to, develop breast cancer. So those two things together unlocked the poetry gates and poems came again. And the kind of poems that came, very often were not, poems that they're not fashionable in that sense. You know, they're not what poetry tends to be. And from that point, in our time, if you like, some are, some, some do come that way, but an awful lot don't. And, for that reason, I'm just so entirely delighted to be able to self-publish because they speak to readers and say they communicate. And to me, that's what matters. And I don't have to worry about being accepted by a poetry establishment at all. I don't spend any time whatsoever thinking about that. I work at the craft, but I, it's for myself and for the poem and for the reader, but not to please anybody that, you know, would be a gatekeeper of any kind. Mark: Well, some listeners will know this – you are very much known as a champion of opportunity and diversity in publishing for writers and self-publishing, independent publishing, however you call it. But I think what I'd like to focus on here is the fact that, you know, by writing a poem like this, you highlight the conventions that we have in modern poetry. And it's easy to see the conventions of the past, but maybe not so much the ones in the present. And I love the fact that you've just sidestepped that or ignored that and written the poem that came to you. Orna: Yes. Yes, very much did and do. And like I said, I don't spend, I did at one time spend time thinking about this, but I spend absolutely no time now thinking about this at all. Mark: That's so refreshing to hear! [Laughter] Orna: No, it's, it's great. It's certainly a liberation. I think very much about the poem and what the poem needs and wants from me. And I make mistakes. I, you know, I don't do well on some poems. I go back, rewrite, sometimes years later, sometimes after they're published. so yeah. It's not that I don't think about form or structure or, you know, all of the things that poets think about but I only think about the master, you know, is the poem itself or the reader possibly or the communication between the bridge between me and the reader, something like that. But yeah, it's liberating for sure. Mark: And how did that play out in this poem? I mean, how close is this to the original draft that came to you? Orna: It's one of the poems that's closest to the original. It kind of arrived and I didn't want to play with it too much at all. So yeah, it, I just left it be. I let it be what I wanted to be because for me there are echoes in this poem as well of Old Irish poetry and ways of writing. you know, that if you, I don't know if you've ever had the pleasure of reading Old Irish poetry in translation? Mark: Yes. Orna: So, you know, that sense of I'm reading something from a completely different mind. It's, it isn't just that the, you know, the structures are different or whatever. It's like the whole mind and sensibility is something else. And that was one of the things I wanted to slightly have to retain in this poem. You know, I felt that it, it carries some of that forward and I wanted to, to leave it there as an echo. Mark: Yeah. Quite a lot of those Old Irish poems have a kind of a litany, a list of attributes of the poet or their beloved or the divine being that they're evoking. And that comes across very strongly here. Orna: Yeah, definitely. That's sort of a list of, which to the modern ear can sound obvious and, you know, just not poetry really. So yeah, I think that's one of the qualities that it carries. Mark: And I love the kind of the incantatory repetitive thing. Like I was saying about the, ‘So I say: let us see. / Let us say', and then ‘It is she… It is she… she who', you know, it just carries you along. It's got a hypnotic quality to it. Orna: Yes. And the she part, you know, the emphasizing the feminine, I suppose, touch of the divine feminine, but very much the physical feminine, and activities as well. So, you know, women held the role of birth and death very much in Irish culture again, up to really quite recently. I remember that, in my own youth and okay, I am getting on a bit, but, it's still, you know, it was quite late in time where, women did the laying out for burial. They did the keening of the, the wake, all of that. I remember very well. so at the beginning and end of life at the thresholds, if you like, that was a woman's job. And, that was lost, I think in the takeover. But I still think all the emotional labour around those thresholds are still very much held by women, you know, silently and quietly. And yeah, Brigid doesn't shout about it, but in this poem, I want to call it. Mark: Yeah. Recall it. Okay. And then let's go back to Hastings, which we touched on earlier, because this, okay. It's, it's going to be in your collection. It's been published in a wonderful anthology poetry from Hastings called Poet Town. Tell us a bit about that book and how you came to be involved. Orna: Yeah. So I heard about it and, Richard [Newham Sullivan] wonderful, poet and, publisher and general literary person. He now lives in New York, but he grew up in Hastings and lived here for many years. And it was a kind of a homesickness project he told me later, for him just. But he carried the idea in his mind for a very long time. He wanted to, he knew that there was an incredible, poetic history in Hastings, which people were not aware of. So Hastings is very well known. Hastings and St. Leonard's, where I live, both are very well known as arty kind of towns. Visual arts are very, very visible here, and all sorts of marvellous things going on, and music as well, there's brilliant Fat Tuesday music festival every year, but there's also, there's classical music, music in the pubs, music coming out your ears, literally. But very little about the literary life that goes on here, and lots of writers living here. And so Richard wanted to just bring forward the poetry side of that. And so he decided it's a passion project for him. He decided to, he worked with the publisher, a small publisher here, in Hastings for it. It's Moth Light Press. And he set out to gather as many living poets into one collection as he could. And this is where I was interested because as, I'm a historical novelist as well, so history is big for me, and I was really interested in the history, you know, the history and the poets who had lived here. There were quite a few. It's not every day you find yourself in an anthology with Lord Byron and Keats, and, two Rossetti's! So that was a joy, discovering all the poets who, had a connection to Hastings back to, I think he went back to the early 1800s with it. So, yeah, it's been a huge success, and, people are loving the book, and it has really brought poetry, brought pride, I think, to the poetry community in the town, which is lovely. Mark: Yeah, I'm really enjoying it, and I love the fact that it's got the old and the new. Because, of course, that's what I do here on A Mouthful of Air. I always think the ghosts of poetry past are always present in the work of the living. I hadn't realized what a deep and rich poetic history Hastings had. So, yeah, Poet Town, a great anthology. Do check that out while you're waiting for Orna's sequence to come to light. And Orna, thank you so much for sharing such a remarkable poem and distinctive take on the poet's craft. And I think this would be a good point to listen to the poem again, and appreciate your praise and celebration once more. Orna: Thanks so much, Mark, for having me. I really enjoyed it. Thank you. Recalling Brigid by Orna Ross Queen of queens, they called herin the old books, the Irish Mary.Never washed her hands, nor her headin sight of a man, never lookedinto a man's face. She was goodwith the poor, multiplied food,gave ale to lepers. Among birds,call her dove; among trees, a vine.A sun among stars. Such was the sort of womanpreferred as the takeover was made:consecrated cask, throne to His glory,intercessor. Brigid said nothing to any of this,the reverence, or the upbraidings.Her realm is the lacuna,silence her sceptre,her own way of life its own witness. Out of desire, the lure of lustor the dust of great deeds,she was distorted:to consort, mother-virgin,to victim or whore. I am not as womanlya woman as she.So I say: Let us see.Let us say how she is the one. It is she who conceivesand she who does bear.She who knitted us in the womband who will cradle our tomb-fraying. Daily she offers her arms,clothes us in compassion,smiles as we wrigglefor baubles. Yes, it is she who lifts you aloftto whisper through your ears,to kiss your eyes,to touch her coolingcheek to your cheek.

Sheinbaum said the marches, which also took place in other cities, had been funded by right-wing politicians who oppose her government. Could the US be trying to encourage a colour revolution?

Do you love the dark?  Do you yearn for sunset and the amber glow of a fire with the night growing deeper, more inspiring all around you?  Most of us don't - though our ancestors through all of history have lived by firelight, moonlight, starlight... until the modern era of light at the flick of a switch.  But there's a world out there of sheer, unadulterated magic that is only revealed when we put aside the lights and the phones and the torches and step out into the night  - as this week's guest has done. Leigh Ann Henion is the New York Times bestselling author of Night Magic: Adventures Among Glowworms, Moon Gardens, and Other Marvels of the Dark and Phenomenal: A Hesitant Adventurer's Search for Wonder in the Natural World. Her writing has appeared in Smithsonian, National Geographic, The Washington Post, Backpacker, The American Scholar, and a variety of other publications. She is a former Alicia Patterson Fellow, and her work has been supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. Henion lives in Boone, North Carolina.  Wall Street Journal says of this book.

Adenomyosis is a condition in which the uterine lining grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, often causing heavy menstrual bleeding, severe cramping, and chronic pelvic pain. It is estimated to affect 25–60% of women worldwide. Despite its prevalence, treatment options in North America remain extremely limited. Many patients are forced to choose between long-term opioid pain management or a hysterectomy, options that can significantly impact quality of life. In this episode of Curing with Sound, we speak with Dr. Vanda Corbett, a healthcare practitioner who endured decades of debilitating adenomyosis-related pain before discovering focused ultrasound. She first learned about this noninvasive treatment after listening to an episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause podcast featuring Suzanne LeBlang, MD, the Foundation's Director of Clinical Relationships.  Determined to find an alternative to surgery or opioids, Dr. Corbett made the life-changing decision to travel from Dubai to Chongqing Haifu Hospital in China for a focused ultrasound procedure. Her transformative experience has motivated her to share her story, so more women can learn about this revolutionary noninvasive treatment option. Discussion highlights: Medical Travel Experience: Follow Dr. Corbett's journey from Dubai to Chongqing, including the preparation process, travel logistics, and the patient-centered care she received at a specialized focused ultrasound hospital. Immediate Treatment Results and Advocacy Mission: Discover how Dr. Corbett experienced complete pain relief within hours of her procedure, shifting from decades of debilitating symptoms to a return to normal daily life. Learn about her mission to raise awareness of adenomyosis and the potential of focused ultrasound through storytelling and social media. Watch Dr. Corbett's documentary videos tracking her journey with Adenomyosis and her focused ultrasound treatment.

We all know the feeling of being stressed, stretched, and overwhelmed — and then someone tells us to meditate for half an hour or take a long walk in nature. Lovely ideas… but when you're already at capacity, it can feel like just one more thing on the to-do list. That's why I love Heidi Horne's approach. She shows that big changes can happen in just one minute. Heidi shares how The One-Minute Reset came to life, the science behind why it works (yes, one minute of mindfulness can drop your cortisol by up to 20%!), and how these quick resets can help us feel calmer and more focused — especially before we speak.

PJ Lovely is here as we talk about how busy things are at the new Community Center, events coming up, the status of sports in Newport, is PJ worried if Newport will continue to have football and more.

In this powerful and personal episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely is joined by her longtime friend, Dr. Vanda Corbett, to pull back the curtain on one of women's health's most devastating secrets: adenomyosis. Often called the "evil twin" of endometriosis, this condition affects a staggering 25-60% of women, yet remains shrouded in misinformation and diagnostic neglect. Dr. Corbett, a wellness professional with a doctorate in chiropractic and a master's in positive psychology, shares her own harrowing journey with adenomyosis, detailing the severe pain and debilitating heavy bleeding that were normalized and dismissed by multiple medical professionals. She recounts being presented with only two bleak options: a lifetime of powerful opioids or a hysterectomy. This candid conversation then takes a turn toward profound hope as Dr. Corbett reveals how a connection made through this very podcast led her to a life-changing, non-invasive treatment halfway across the world. She provides a fascinating education on High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), explaining how this precise technology ablates the problematic tissue without a single incision, offering a uterus-preserving solution that eliminated her chronic pain.  This episode is a crucial call to action for any woman who has been told her suffering is normal, arming listeners with the knowledge to advocate for better care and explore revolutionary treatments that exist beyond the standard Western medical playbook. If you or someone you love has ever been told that severe period pain is "just normal," this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast is essential listening. My guest, Dr. Vanda Corbett, shares her powerful fight against adenomyosis and the groundbreaking treatment that gave her her life back—without surgery.

We are back for Part 2!If you want to keep the conversation going, I encourage you to connect with Bailey. He's planning a  third trip to Florida, this winter. If you have a neat spot he should check out whether it's a botanical garden, a hidden gem in Florida that no one knows about, a neat plant you're growing at home, or even a cool skate or surf spot.  He is very interested in all things the sunshine state.  Connect with Bailey: baileyjwa@gmail.com

Katie Scaife & Kevin Bache in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://thelovelybasement.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheLovelyBasement/ The Lovely Basement are Katie Scaife, Kevin Bache, Steve Dew and Paul Waterworth. The band are based in Bristol, UK. The idea back in 2018 was to combine the feel of the Velvet Underground with a hint of the twang of early country music. In the words of the band “we failed, but liked the sound of the failure. Slow, driving and dreamy by turns, we anchor our songs in the tried-and-true combo of two guitars, bass, drums and fine harmonies to float our passing thoughts on class, death, the pull of ennui, the push of irritation, existential OCD and taking it easy.” First two albums (Just Because You Can and the eponymously-titled second album) were released on Breaking Down Recordings, a Bristol collective label. Albums that have received very good reviews in magazines and independent radio stations in Europe, America, Australia and New Zealand. Lazy Travellers is another wonderful album by The Lovely Basement. Ten new songs with echoes of The Velvet Underground, The Clientele, Luna or Cowboy Junkies.

Get ready to have your mind blown by one of the most exciting frontiers in health science. In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, I'm sitting down with the incredibly knowledgeable Kyal Van Der Leest, an Australian Nutritionist and Naturopath who is truly pioneering the future of wellness.  If you've heard the term "peptides" buzzing around but aren't quite sure what they are or how they could revolutionize your health, especially during the hormonal shifts of menopause, this conversation is your essential guide. We dive deep into the fascinating world of peptides, explaining them not as foreign chemicals, but as the body's own innate messengers that speak its language fluently. Kyal masterfully breaks down how these powerful chains of amino acids act as targeted instructions for healing, regeneration, and repair in a way that traditional supplements and pharmaceuticals simply can't.  The conversation gets particularly illuminating as we explore the profound gut-brain connection and how a specific peptide can actually block zonulin—the very protein responsible for creating leaky gut—offering a revolutionary approach to sealing a permeable gut lining. We also discuss why these are often short-term, interventional tools designed to restore your body's foundation so you can thrive long after you've stopped taking them.  This is a masterclass in cutting-edge, holistic health that you won't want to miss.

Welcome to Episode 246! We recap some fun Biblioadventures in this episode. Emily got to see Mel Rosenthal in conversation with Virginia Evans about her debut novel The Correspondent at an event hosted by RJ Julia Booksellers. Chris had a research visit to Columbia University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library, where she enjoyed their book arts exhibit and admired the mantel in front of which Edgar Allan Poe wrote “The Raven.” She also had an impromptu browse at New Haven's used bookstore, Grey Matter Books. We also had some Couch Biblioadventures. Because we recently read Daphne Du Maurier's excellent short story, “The Birds,” we thought we'd also watch Alfred Hitchcock's movie of the same name, which was inspired by the written word. Spoiler alert: the movie is nothing like the short story. PSA: the birds are LOUD. Other literary-related movies we watched include The Turn of the Screw, starring Michelle Dockery and Dan Stephens. Emily made an exciting discovery about A Star is Born—did you know some famous writers penned the screenplays for various incarnations of this classic story? Some of the books we discuss include: – All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me by Patrick Bringley – Amelia Bloomer: Journalist, Suffragist, Anti-Fashion Icon by Sara Catterall – Death at the Door: A Ruby and Cordelia Mystery by Olivia Blacke – A Marriage at Sea: A True Story of Love, Obsession, and Shipwreck by Sophie Elmhurst And we discuss our second-to-last ghost story from The Penguin Book of Ghost Stories: From Elizabeth Gaskell to Ambrose Bierce: “The Readjustment” by Mary Austin. Chris has finished, and Emily is currently reading our Q4 readalong book, How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix. The Zoom conversation is on Sunday, November 9th, at 7 pm ET. It is free and open to all, but registration is required. We still have a few spots available, so email us if you're interested (bookcougars@gmail.com). Special thanks to this episode's sponsors: Epic and Lovely by Mo Daviau and Paper Roses by Debby Show. Happy Listening and Happy Reading! https://www.bookcougars.com/blog-1/2025/episode246
