Paula McLain joins Carol Fitzgerald to discuss her latest novel, SKYLARK. Paula has been enthralled with Paris since her 2011 bestseller, THE PARIS WIFE. Her new book features dual timelines set in Paris --- one in 1664 and the other in the 1940s during the Nazi occupation. The characters face parallel struggles across different time periods. Both storylines address how people find meaning and hope through connections with others. In SKYLARK, the underground tunnels beneath Paris serve as a space of refuge and resistance throughout history. Paula conducted extensive research, including physically exploring the city's underground tunnel network. She wanted to create a "drilled-down view" of Paris rather than the glamorous cafés portrayed in her earlier work. In addition to talking about how she worked with her editor, Peter Borland, to weave the two stories together, Paula discusses the audiobook narration by Alexa Davalos and Michiel Huisman, both of whom captured the emotional essence of the characters.

The tragic murder of 16-year-old Joyce McLain shocked the small town of East Millinocket, Maine, in August 1980. A popular honors student, cheerleader, saxophonist, and aspiring soccer player, Joyce vanished during a routine evening jog near Schenck High School. Her partially clothed body was discovered two days later in a wooded area behind the soccer fields—beaten to death with blunt force trauma, hands bound with a blue cloth, and a telephone insulator likely the murder weapon. No sexual assault occurred, and heavy thunderstorms washed away potential evidence, leaving no fingerprints or usable DNA. The case haunted the community for nearly 38 years, featured on Unsolved Mysteries in 1989, spurring tips but no immediate resolution. Philip Scott Fournier, then 19, emerged as the perpetrator through multiple confessions—to family, a pastor, coworkers, and notably a janitor in 1989—revealing non-public details like the weapon and Joyce’s condition. Despite claims of unreliability due to a brain injury from a nearby truck crash (hours after the murder), he was convicted in a 2018 bench trial and sentenced to 45 years. Appeals failed, and he remains incarcerated. In this episode of the Unsolved Mysteries Rewind Podcast, hosts Mark and Catharine delve into the chilling details, the long road to justice, and the hope it brings to other cold cases. Tune in for their thoughtful recap—you can look forward to more gripping revisits in the future!

The unspoken reality of being a widower, a single father, and a man trying to find love again. In this episode, I sit down with David McClain and Jamal Jones, hosts of the powerful podcast Getting Back Up. Both men lost their wives to cancer and were left to raise their children alone.

If you are struggling with loss, navigating single fatherhood, or feeling guilty about moving on, this conversation is the permission slip you didn't know you needed. Topics Discussed: - Why "staying strong" is actually a weakness in disguise. - The "Dad's House, Dad's Rules" moment: Changing the environment to survive. - How to date again without feeling like you are cheating on your late wife. - The concept of "Post-Traumatic Growth" and how to harden like an egg, not soften like a carrot.

Paula McLain's Skylark is the GMA book club pick this month and we are so pleased she sat down with us too. This book is a beautifully written, touching and suspenseful story centered around the meaning of freedom, and the prices we pay to attain it. Paralleling two stories in Paris, one in the 17th century, the other on the dawn of WWII, each story takes us into the depths of the Paris underground, exploring hidden tunnels, abandoned quarries and secret rivers. There is a second Paris that is hidden under the streets that tourists know and love. And this story explores the lost depths of the city while handing readers unforgettable characters with page turning action. McLain herself is an amazing woman who has taken her challenging life and turned it into a gift for the written word. She shares her experience and how it shaped her writing. Join us for an unforgettable conversation with a terrific writer.

Nick Kirby and Craig Sandlin break down a new report from Mark Sheldon detailing the Cincinnati Reds' infield plans for 2026, including Matt McLain being viewed as the primary second baseman and Gavin Lux projected as a utility infielder. They discuss whether the Reds are handling those roles correctly and how the rest of the infield picture fits together, including Sal Stewart, Spencer Steer, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, and Ke'Bryan Hayes. The guys also dive into the latest Reds and MLB news, including the Reds signing right-hander Yunior Marte to a minor-league deal after a dominant 2025 season in Japan, where he posted a 1.95 ERA with the Chunichi Dragons. Marte last pitched in MLB with the Phillies in 2024 and can earn $1.05 million if he makes the Opening Day roster. Additional topics include a report from The Athletic that the Reds are still searching for bullpen help, possible trade scenarios involving starting pitching, ongoing uncertainty surrounding the Reds' local TV situation, and updates on recent waiver activity. They also discuss the latest Redsfest confirmations, Edwin Arroyo's hot start in Puerto Rico, and reports that the Pirates are showing interest in Eugenio Suárez.

This week, I got to sit down with Masey McLain. She's an actress, screenwriter, and producer who's doing some seriously meaningful work. Whether she's on set, writing, or speaking, Masey is passionate about telling stories that matter. One of the things I admire most about her is her conviction. She's said "no" to a lot of opportunities in Hollywood because they didn't line up with who she is or what she feels called to. That kind of integrity is rare. We also talk about her new movie, Soul on Fire, the true story of John O'Leary. And what I love about it is this: it's not a victim story. It's a choosing-hope story. A choosing-life story. If you've ever wondered how to chase a dream without losing yourself, or how to stay faithful in a place where faith isn't exactly the norm, you're going to love this one.

We would love to hear from you! Text us any feedback. What if the season you're calling a drought is actually sacred training? I sat down with actress and creator Masey McLain for a candid, deeply encouraging conversation about conviction, calling, and the new feature film Soul on Fire—where she portrays Beth O'Leary. From growing up a pastor's kid to turning down roles that crossed personal lines, Masey traces the steady thread of choosing God first and letting the work follow. We go behind the scenes on The Baxters and the serendipity that landed her favorite character at exactly the right time. Then we step into Soul on Fire: why this story of resilience, faith, and purpose feels urgent right now, and how set life was shaped by a real soul on fire—John O'Leary—who sees people, not flash. Masey unpacks agape love in action, the power of words that speak life, and a richer meaning of “helper” from Genesis—a fierce battle partner who pushes back darkness and brings in the light. It's practical for marriage, friendship, and parenting, and it's a blueprint for how to show up in life.You'll hear why opening weekend truly matters for impact and distribution, and you'll leave with a renewed sense of purpose you can act on today. Bring your family, invite a friend who needs hope, and “vote with your dollars” to keep stories like this on the big screen. If this conversation sparks something in you, subscribe, share it with someone who needs the reminder, and leave a review—then grab your tickets to Soul on Fire and tell us who you're bringing.You can follow Masey at:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maseymclainWebsite: https://www.maseymclainofficial.com/Tickets for Soul On Fire:https://soulonfiremovie.com/Karen Kingsbury - The Baxter Family:https://amzn.to/47flYrzJOIN ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Follow Along @ - https://www.instagram.com/nikkicronksmith/

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series welcomes Masey McLain, the gifted actress who portrays my wife, Beth O'Leary, in our upcoming film. Casting Beth was one of the most important decisions of the film, and in Masey we found someone who truly embodies her grace, strength, and unshakable love. Beyond the screen, Masey is an author, singer, producer, and speaker. She lives with mission and purpose, and she's a dear friend whose light shines every bit as brightly as her performance. Recorded in Hogansville, Georgia (Masey's small hometown!), she opens up about what it meant to step into Beth's shoes and portray a love that sees the scars and chooses them anyway. Masey also shares on her journey of faith, the lessons she carried from set, and how she radiates beauty, humility, joy, and resilience both onscreen and off. My friends, if you need a reminder that love is the foundation for courage, and that faith and laughter can carry us through any season, this conversation is for you.
On this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley sits down with attorney and former Marine Corps officer Patrick McLain to share the leadership lesson lawyers need most today. Patrick's path took him from serving as a Marine JAG officer and military judge to building a successful criminal defense practice. Along the way, he discovered that the same principles that carried him through combat zones could also guide him in the courtroom and in leadership. Patrick talks about the challenges of transitioning from military life to private practice, and how niching down in criminal defense allowed him to build a firm with purpose and clarity. He also shares how embracing innovation, empowering his team, and leaning into the human side of advocacy helped him create a practice that thrives in today's legal world. Yet, the most surprising leadership lesson lawyers need to hear comes at the end of his story. Despite his military background and commanding presence, Patrick reveals that the greatest insight he has learned is love. Leading with compassion, for clients, colleagues, and community, not only defines his approach to law but also shapes the legacy he wants to leave behind. This conversation is both practical and deeply human. It's a reminder that while systems and strategies matter, the leadership lesson lawyers need is to show up with courage, empathy, and love. In this episode, you will hear: Patrick McLain's transition from Marine Corps officer to a successful law practice owner The impact of military discipline and leadership on legal practice Balancing family life and a demanding legal career Importance of niching and creating a practice aligned with personal values Mentoring young advocates and fostering the next generation Utilizing technology to enhance efficiency and client interaction Financial prudence, structured systems, and growth strategies in law firm management Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.
