Podcast appearances and mentions of Margaret Atwood

It seems like we live in a world where every issue divides us on the extremes, and Climate Change is no exception. It's killing people and economies, and yet it seems like all we can do is yell at each other about it. Our guest this week is trying to change that, one conversation at a time. Dr. Katharine Hayhoe is lead scientist at The Nature Conservancy and author of the new book Saving Us: A Climate Scientist's Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World. NATIONAL BESTSELLER “An optimistic view on why collective action is still possible—and how it can be realized.” —The New York Times “As far as heroic characters go, I'm not sure you could do better than Katharine Hayhoe.” —Scientific American “A must-read if we're serious about enacting positive change from the ground up, in communities, and through human connections and human emotions.” —Margaret Atwood, Twitter United Nations Champion of the Earth, climate scientist, and evangelical Christian Katharine Hayhoe changes the debate on how we can save our future. Called “one of the nation's most effective communicators on climate change” by The New York Times, Katharine Hayhoe knows how to navigate all sides of the conversation on our changing planet. A Canadian climate scientist living in Texas, she negotiates distrust of data, indifference to imminent threats, and resistance to proposed solutions with ease. Over the past fifteen years Hayhoe has found that the most important thing we can do to address climate change is talk about it—and she wants to teach you how. In Saving Us, Hayhoe argues that when it comes to changing hearts and minds, facts are only one part of the equation. We need to find shared values in order to connect our unique identities to collective action. This is not another doomsday narrative about a planet on fire. It is a multilayered look at science, faith, and human psychology, from an icon in her field—recently named chief scientist at The Nature Conservancy. Drawing on interdisciplinary research and personal stories, Hayhoe shows that small conversations can have astonishing results. Saving Us leaves us with the tools to open a dialogue with your loved ones about how we all can play a role in pushing forward for change. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

Hi friends! On this episode, we recap “Heartbeat Braves” by Pamela Sanderson. Our heroine is a no-nonsense professional who works at a community center serving the indigenous community. Her job is stressful enough without having to hand-hold the board's nepotism hire. And even worse, he is super cute. This book highlighted the glaring gaps in our bookshelves with regard to indigenous stories, and we had a lot of trouble finding stories that centered indigenous lives and not just indigenous trauma. So please please send us your recommendations, because we would love to read them. Now, spoilers ahead. You can visit us at www.makeoutalreadypod.com.

In this episode, Kariba talks about another story she's reading for English class: The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

En 2019 suite à l'épisode 21 "#jesuisféminicidophobe", j'ai fait la rencontre de Marguerite Stern qui m'avait donné rendez-vous ainsi qu'à des dizaines d'autres femmes pour nous enseigner sa technique de peinture & collage aussi reconnaissable qu'incontournable autour d'une seule et même revendication : ON NE VEUT PLUS COMPTER NOS MORTES. Un mouvement d'une puissance incommensurable était né. Un mouvement dont un groupe de personnes essaient de lui ôter la maternité. Un mouvement désormais détourné au profit d'un autre mouvement qui se caractérise par sa violente misogynie. C'est intolérable. J'aurais du prendre sa défense il y a bien longtemps, Mieux vaut tard que jamais. J'espère qu'en lui montrant de l'amour - ou du moins du respect - les unes après les autres, on rétablira l'équilibre avec toute la haine qu'elle encaisse depuis des années.

Today we're focusing on the topic of womanhood and motherhood and how the progressive Left dilutes what those things mean. Rachel Levine, the assistant secretary of HHS, who is a man living as a woman, was recently awarded the rank of four-star admiral because ... reasons. The media are all aflutter over this, fawning over what they call either the first openly trans four-star admiral or the first woman four-star admiral. Even though those things contradict each other. We discuss all the reasons this is ridiculous and also the biblical perspective that Christians use to approach issues regarding gender. Also, famous feminist Margaret Atwood has gotten on the wrong side of the pro-trans mob after sharing an article that asked, "Why can't we say 'woman' anymore?" Pro-trans activists are still protesting Netflix, which led to a pretty funny and crazy encounter between a leftist protester and a pro-Dave protester. Lastly, Condoleezza Rice went on "The View" and gave a very measured, reasonable rebuttal to critical race theory that encapsulates what most of the country probably believes. --- Timecodes: (0:00) Intro (3:15) Rachel Levine is being called the "first female" four-star admiral in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (10:40) What does it mean to be a woman?

Margaret Atwood is trending for committing the transgression of sharing an article that asked why we're no longer allowed to call women women any more. Reality is no longer the fabric of our existence; it's a nuisance that should be disregarded and redefined. Rachel Levine was sworn in as the "first openly transgender, female four-star admiral," proving just how serious our military is about defending our country. Don't worry about the hypersonic missiles China is launching, because inclusivity wins wars. Seattle Fire Chief Harold Scoggins, when discussing why the personnel who worked 20 months without the vaccine are now a problem, gave possibly too honest an answer, saying, “The rules have changed.” Indeed, it seems like the rules for reality have truly changed.

When you think about your thought leadership, one of the questions to consider is: What is missing in your field/industry?

Katrine is a bestselling author on women and innovation and her second book just came out called “Mother Of Invention: How Good Ideas Get Ignored In An Economy Built For Men.” Katrine and I talk about: Why women have been missing from economics The innovations we're missing as a society because women have been ignored and don't receive funding for their ideas and businesses How Katrine is "speaking her brand" with her writings and speaking engagements I share some Ideas for Katrine's talks About My Guest: Katrine Marçal is a bestselling author on women and innovation.

The world's most famous adult magazine went ‘SFW' on 12th October, 2015 - when Scott Flanders, then Playboy's chief executive, announced that future editions would no longer contain full nudity. The change lasted for only one year.‘Reading it for the articles' had, at one time, been a plausible option - the magazine had published stories by Margaret Atwood and interviews with Malcolm X, Vladimir Nabokov, Martin Luther King Jr., and Jimmy Carter. But, in the internet era, Playboy had become more lucrative as a clothing brand than as a credible print title, finally ceasing publication in 2020.In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly revisit the first issue, from 1953; dig into Hugh Hefner's burial plot; and visit Playboy's website, FOR RESEARCH…Further Reading:‘Playboy to remove nudity from magazine' (Channel 4 News, 2015): https://www.channel4.com/news/playboy-to-remove-nudity-from-magazine‘Playboy's Postfeminism Problem' (Diggit, 2018): https://www.diggitmagazine.com/column/playboys-postfeminism-problem‘Playboy Is Bringing Nudity Back' (ThinkTank, 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiJzqwM4ibAFor bonus material and to support the show, visit Patreon.com/RetrospectorsWe'll be back tomorrow!

Mondays are traditionally the easiest crossword puzzles of the week, designed to gently welcome novice solvers to the fold, and this one definitely succeeds. It has some intriguing clues -- 1D, Handy way of communicating, in brief?, ASL; 56A, 1967 hit by the Tremeloes suggested by the starts of 17-, 27- and 46-Across, HERECOMESMYBABY; and a nod to one of Mike's favorite books, 7D, "_____ and Crake" (Margaret Atwood novel), ORYX. But it also has some old chestnuts, such as 41A, Airport guesses, for short, ETAS 25A, "Othello" villain*, IAGO, and 40A, Brian who was once with Roxy Music, ENO. And of course ... [pregnant pause] ... it had a theme, involving delivery. For more deets, download today's episode!*but a hero to crossword constructors

We wrap our second semester of Literaturely with our book club! We dive into the prolific and exciting world of Margaret Atwood. That's right: Paige and Margaret read and review MLA's 1996 Approaches to Teaching Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and Other Texts. We chat about the goals of a literature pedagogy anthology, the overall collection, and the individual essays themselves! We discuss how students' expectations for Atwood have changed in the past two decades and how the literature classroom itself has evolved. We have a lot of fun discussing the potential of including Atwood in our own classrooms, the activities we loved, and how these works can help our own pedagogy continue to improve! What are your approaches for teaching Atwood? Share your thoughts with us on Twitter with @Literaturely101, on Instagram at LiteraturelyPodcast, or via email at LiteraturelyPodcast@gmail.com!

In a poem of four stanzas, Margaret Atwood traces bread from its growth in bone-nurtured soil, to the warm ovens of baking, to the table, to the mouth of one person, then the hands of someone breaking bread for many. From the cow-dung in the earth to the salt of the hands of the person kneading the bread, this poem is like a meditation on the material reality of what nurtures the body and what nurtures the soul, and is a secular examination of what breaking bread might mean.Margaret Atwood is the author of more than fifty books of fiction, poetry, critical essays, and graphic novels. Her latest novel, The Testaments, is a co-winner of the 2019 Booker Prize. It is the long-awaited sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, now an award-winning TV series. She lives in Toronto.Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.

We reveal our new 'Rules for Writing' - six ideas to inspire, excite, and to break! The musician and songwriter Damon Albarn - and award-winning poets Don Paterson and Elizabeth-Jane Burnett - all join Ian McMillan to illustrate these provocations, which are designed to help launch a new era of poetry, story-writing and performance. The composer and producer Gerry Diver has also contributed a piece of sound art inspired by the cadences of the human voice called 'You May be Mistaken'. Across our 'Experiments in Living' season, The Verb asked over a hundred guests ( including Margaret Atwood, Yanis Varoufakis, Claudia Rankine and Simon Armitage ) for their ideas about how we might write most powerfully, and creatively in these times. Certain themes surfaced again and again, including time, uncertainty, the non-human world, and listening. Find out how they made their way into our manifesto, and inspired our six new rules.

Bruce Miller's adaptation of Margaret Atwood's famous novel has pulled in numerous accolades, but what is it that makes the show so noteworthy? In episode 198, Luke & James react to the first five episodes of season 1, explore the directorial decisions, what lighting can mean for a scene, the purpose of extreme closeups, and theorize why the show seems to push the envelope farther than the book even did. They make sure to discuss the fantastic performances from Elizabeth Moss, Yvonne Strahovski, Ann Dowd, and Alexis Bledel!

Carolyn Harding with Whitney Shanahan, Founder of ProChoice with Heart, a growing organization that focuses on holding protests across the country fighting for women's rights! They wear red as a symbol of women's oppression, inspired by Margaret Atwood's book and hulu show, Handmaid's Tale. According to Planned Parenthood Advocates of Ohio, “On September 1st one of the most extreme abortion bans went into effect — Texas's S.B. 8 will ban abortion at six weeks of pregnancy and encourages private citizens to act as abortion bounty hunters — allowing anyone to sue any Texan who they believe provided an abortion, or even helped a patient get an abortion, after six weeks.” Can you lay out what just happened in Texas, with the six-week abortion ban. What does that mean for the everyday Texan woman, their loved ones, and health care providers?

Margaret Atwood's dystopian feminist novel drew praise and outrage alike when it was first released for its controversial subject matter, but the modern classic has only grown in relevance over time, with perhaps no moment in American history since its publication more apropos than the one we're in now. In episode 197, Luke & James wade into the politics of the day, discuss the similarities between Gilead and Q-Anon, and the way religion can be used as a tool of suppression.

Novelist, poet and essayist Margaret Atwood discusses her latest work of fiction, “Two Scorched Men,” her seminal novel, The Handmaid's Tale, and writing in the time of dystopia.

Whether we like it or not, one fact of modern living is that every day we're creating greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution. But should our final act on the earthly stage also necessitate one last pollutive hurrah?  Katrina Spade is on a mission to offer a better way to deal with human corpses, and it involves a process called natural organic reduction. It's essentially a fancy way of saying she's invented a method of accelerated composting for your body. Rather than cremating your corpse, which involves substantial pollution, and rather than burial, which typically means sealing your body off from nature with concrete liners, hermetically sealed caskets, preservatives in your body, and more, Katrina wants to turn your body into healthy, rich soil, within just one month. After founding Recompose, Katrina helped change laws in three states now (Washington, Oregon, and Colorado) to allow her method, and has already opened an operational human composting facility in Seattle. In addition to dozens of composts completed, they have nearly 1,000 paying customers who've already pre-ordered their own composting, just in the same way you might pre-order a plot in a cemetery.  So far Recompose has raised about $12 million from investors (including author Margaret Atwood!) and is just getting started in their effort to empower you to give nutrients back to the planet when you're done with your body.

Recorded in November 2019 for Raising the Bar, an event series from the City of Melbourne.  We're so grateful to the RTB team for allowing us to share this audio, from past guest and collaborator Dr Jen Rae. Raising the Bar is "for curious minds and lifelong learners. We're here for those hungry for innovation and inspiration. For the citizens and dreamers of our world. We're here to make knowledge accessible outside of the traditional classroom and transform our city's popular culture. We're Raising the Bar." According to Margaret Atwood, we're no longer talking about climate change; we are facing ‘everything change'. There are infinite adjustments to make - so what's the importance of artists in these transitions? Jen Rae has been practicing at the intersection of arts and climate emergency for the past 10 years. Join her as she shares what she's learned from practicing across cultures and disciplines to find the place of artists in the climate catastrophe.

A Stomp, A Roar, An Elephantquake? An adult African elephant, the largest land animal on Earth, can weigh as much as two tons. Their activities—walking, playing, even bellowing—might shake the ground beneath them. But research in the journal Current Biology finds that the signals from an elephant's walk are capable of traveling as far as three kilometers, while a roaring bull, or male elephant, might be detectable a full six kilometers away with just seismological monitoring tools. Biologist Beth Mortimer and seismologist Tarje Nissen-Meyer, both at the University of Oxford and co-authors of the new research, describe the signals they captured in the ground and explain how a network of seismological sensors might help us study elephants from a distance, and even protect endangered elephants from poaching.      Margaret Atwood On The Science Behind ‘Oryx And Crake' Author Margaret Atwood's book, Oryx and Crake is set in a post-pandemic world and a genetically engineered dystopian future. In this archival interview, recorded in April 2004, Atwood says science is “a tool for expressing and perfecting human desires—and sometimes it's a tool for counteracting human fears.” She talks about how she pulls inspiration for her ‘speculative fiction' from news headlines, and discusses how her entomologist father influenced her writing.
