“I really loved it,” Francine Prose says of Nixon-era San Francisco in this episode of The World in Time, “but I also knew I wasn't going to live there forever. Everyone I knew was living in these group houses in Berkeley, and then in the city itself, with ten people or fifteen people. I talk about the Reno Hotel, a former nineteenth-century hotel that had been built for boxers, and the city had given it to artists and designers and said, You can live there, don't burn it down. And so they carved out these incredibly beautiful spaces for themselves. But this was before the tech revolution, when the Mission was still kind of wild and free, and it wasn't all the glass cubes and people in tech. It was a great city to live in then. There was a kind of freedom there. Certainly compared to what I'd come from. My good fortune was that I wasn't around a lot of hippies giving acid to two-year-olds. The book takes place during the Vietnam War. We went out and protested McNamara. My husband was the one who scaled the Pentagon, the walls of the Pentagon. We were very idealistic. Maybe unrealistically idealistic, but hey, I'll take it.” This week on the podcast, Donovan Hohn speaks with Francine Prose, author of 1974: A Personal History, about the San Francisco she remembers from her youth, about her relationship with Pentagon Papers whistleblower Tony Russo, about the final defeat of 1960s counterculture, and about the eerie echoes of Prose's favorite movie, Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo.

Welcome to Club + Resort Talks, the podcast where we dive into the minds of industry leaders shaping the future of private clubs and luxury resorts. Today, we're joined by Rob McNamara, General Manager and Director of Golf at Keswick Hall—former LSU All-American, U.S. Open competitor at just 17, and one of the game's great storytellers. We'll talk about hosting U.S. Open qualifiers, honoring Pete Dye's legacy, and what it takes to deliver elite golf experiences in a resort setting. In the news … Michigan's Harbor Shores breaks ground on its Wee Course with Colin Montgomerie. The five-acre, nine-hole pitch-and-putt course will open in 2026. The design will consist of holes measuring 60 yards or less modeled after the nine most iconic holes of the current Jack Nicklaus layout.

In this philosophically rich episode of Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and Burning Bright take on Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket, unpacking its brutal duality and eerie relevance to today's global narrative warfare. The conversation begins with an analysis of the film's two-act structure, boot camp and battlefield, and how Kubrick uses it to depict not just the horrors of war, but the system that transforms human beings into tools of violence. Chris and BB explore the concept of dehumanization, especially through the lens of Gomer Pyle and Project 100,000, McNamara's Vietnam-era program to funnel low-IQ recruits into combat. From there, they dive into the eerie symbolism of the film's final scene, the infamous sniper reveal, and the cultural conditioning that primes entire generations for conflict. The discussion widens to cover controlled opposition, narrative traps, the media's role in manufacturing consent, and how the same war machine now operates across Ukraine, Gaza, and the information sphere. They contrast Kubrick's cinematic truth-telling with today's hyperreality, where war is not just sold through propaganda but produced as entertainment. A masterclass in narrative analysis and moral clarity, this episode doesn't just critique the military-industrial complex...it exposes the spiritual and psychological cost of buying into it.

Presentation Secondary School, Kilkenny 2-0 Presentation College, Athenry Roisin Foley (50), Emily Phelan (67)                                     Two second half goals ensured Cup success for Presentation Secondary School, Kilkenny over defending Champions Presentation College, Athenry in a sun-soaked Athlone Town AFC this afternoon (March 19). It's been some season for the Kilkenny kingpins as this victory confirmed a Cup double for the girls with their Senior crew capturing the National title five weeks ago in the same venue with six of the Junior squad involved in that showpiece. It was a case of taking their chances when they came with a sublime effort from Roisin FOLEY to open her account for Kilkenny with twenty minutes of the game remaining.  Vice Captain Emily PHELAN made sure of the win three minutes from time when she saw her effort go in off the keeper. Kilkenny made the brighter start to the contest with Hannah Griffey forcing a brilliant save from Jane Brennan with 13 minutes on the clock. Towards the latter stages of the first half, it was Athenry that dominated most of the possession but just couldn't get the ball on target as the teams went in goalless at the break. Within four minutes, Kilkenny broke the deadlock with a superb set piece from Roisin FOLEY that sailed over the head of Brennan and into the top corner, leaving the Galway shot-stopper no chance. The Galway side had a great opportunity to draw level a few moments later when Niamh Kilgannon had a glancing header goal bound only for Isabelle Carroll to produce a top class save at the near post to deny the youngster. Noone, Duffy and McNamara had half chances blocked down with some solid defensive play from Presentation, Kilkenny. The killer blow for Athenry came three minutes from time when Emily PHELAN'S cross slipped through the hands of Brennan and in for Kilkenny's second of the afternoon. After the game, Presentation College manager Joe Finnerty spoke to Galway Bay FM's Mike Rafferty. == PRESENTATION SECONDARY SCHOOOL, KILKENNY | Isabelle Carroll, Anna Morrissey, Roisin Foley, Hannah Griffey, Maria Ryan, Ellie Barron, Kate Ryan, Olivia Dunphy ©, Emily Phelan ©, Meadhbh Doherty, Ellen Treacy SUBS USED | Kate Dalton for Treacy (46) Amy O'Shea for Barron (46).

 A former Stoughton, Massachusetts, police detective charged with murdering a pregnant woman appeared in a brief court hearing on Monday as both sides continued reviewing evidence. Matthew Farwell, 38, was indicted in August 2024 for the death of 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore, who was found dead in her Canton apartment on February 4, 2021. Birchmore, who was three months pregnant, was allegedly killed to prevent authorities from uncovering Farwell's long-term sexual exploitation of her. Prosecutors say Farwell first met Birchmore when she was a child in the Stoughton Police Department's Youth Explorers Program. By the time she was 15 and he was a 27-year-old officer, authorities allege he had begun an inappropriate sexual relationship with her that continued into adulthood. According to investigators, Birchmore told Farwell in December 2020 that he was the father of her unborn child, at which point he became aggressive. Court documents allege that he put her in a headlock and told her he wished she were dead. Monday's hearing focused on the ongoing discovery process. Farwell was not required to appear in court. Outside the courthouse, Birchmore's supporters gathered in protest and spoke to the media. “It's been a long time coming, and I hope that Sandra finally gets justice—hopefully this year,” said Birchmore's cousin, Barbara Wright. “I define justice as seeing Matthew go behind bars for the rest of his life.” Prosecutors argue that Farwell staged Birchmore's death to look like a suicide. The indictment claims he acted to prevent authorities from uncovering his criminal behavior, which allegedly included engaging in sex acts with Birchmore while on duty. Farwell has pleaded not guilty. An internal affairs investigation revealed that Birchmore first encountered Farwell at age 13 through the Stoughton Explorers Program. Investigators say he used his position as a police officer to groom, exploit, and abuse her, continuing the relationship into her adulthood. While on duty, Farwell allegedly falsified records to claim he was working when he was actually with Birchmore. In late January 2021—just a week before Birchmore's death—a friend of hers contacted the Stoughton Police Department and mentioned Farwell's sexual involvement with her. When Farwell learned of the inquiry, investigators say he sent Birchmore angry messages and visited her apartment, requesting a spare key and urging her to keep it secret. Federal authorities allege that, in the days leading up to her death, Farwell searched Birchmore's home, including her closets and bathroom, before ultimately killing her. Her death was initially ruled a suicide, but federal investigators later uncovered new evidence that led to Farwell's indictment. Stoughton Police Chief Donna McNamara has strongly condemned Farwell's alleged actions, calling them “the single worst act of not just professional misconduct but indeed human indecency that I have observed in a nearly three-decade career in law enforcement.” “As I have stated previously, Sandra Birchmore received no justice during her life. It is imperative that justice be served in her death, and today's actions appear to bring our society one step closer to justice,” McNamara said in a statement.
