This episode includes includes mentions of sexual assault. Listen with care.New England Serial Killer Series | On the South Coast of Massachusetts sits New Bedford, a city shaped by the sea. Called the “whaling capital of the world,” New Bedford rose to prominence in the 19th century as a global hub for whale oil, fueling lamps and industry across continents. It inspired the Melville classic, Moby Dick. Its deep harbor and access to railways helped it eclipse Nantucket by the 1840s, transforming the city into one of the wealthiest in America. But beneath the grandeur of its maritime legacy lay a working-class community shaped by immigration, labor, and resilience—a backdrop that would later frame some of the region's darkest chapters.In 1983, New Bedford was thrust into the national spotlight when 21-year-old Cheryl Araujo was gang-raped inside Big Dan's Tavern. The attack, witnessed by onlookers who failed to intervene, ignited outrage and debate over victim-blaming, media ethics, and systemic misogyny. The televised trial and community backlash—especially within the city's Portuguese-American population—exposed deep cultural rifts and left her ostracized until her tragic death in a car accident three years later. Her story inspired the film The Accused and remains a painful reminder of how justice and empathy can falter.Just four years later, New Bedford faced another reckoning. Between 1988 and 1989, eleven women—many struggling with addiction and poverty—vanished or were found murdered along highways surrounding the city. The New Bedford Highway Murders, still unsolved, revealed a chilling pattern of vulnerability and neglect. Many suspects, no arrests. A serial killer goes free.Journalist Maureen Boyle, who covered the case from its earliest days, chronicled the victims' lives and the community's grief in her book Shallow Graves: The Hunt For The New Bedford Highway Serial Killer. The killer has not been caught, but the women and their stories have not been forgotten.Trial By MediaShallow Graves: The Hunt For the New Bedford Highway Serial KillerMore at CrimeoftheTruestKind.comSupport the show: patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Hosted on Acast.

It starts with a hot flash. That moment—unexpected, uninvited, and disorienting—becomes the spark that ignites Clementine Crane's quiet rebellion. In this moving and laugh-out-loud episode of A Fresh Story: Book Talk, Olivia sits down with novelist and writing teacher Kristin Bair to discuss her forthcoming novel Clementine Crane Prefers Not To, a fierce and funny feminist tale of a woman who wakes up, drenched in sweat, and realizes she's been sleepwalking through a life of over-functioning, over-giving, and never asking herself what she wants. What follows is Clementine's unraveling—and remaking—of her life, one “I prefer not to” at a time.Kristin brings her sharp wit and deeply lived insight to a conversation about writing, rage, midlife, and the radical awakening that can occur in the most mundane moments of motherhood. Inspired by both her own perimenopausal experience and the literary ghosts of Melville and Ibsen, Clementine Crane Prefers Not To is part love letter to women who are done saying yes to everything—and part battle cry for those still trying to find the language for their no. Clementine is a mother, a wife, a library worker, and a woman who has spent decades appeasing the world around her. But in the quiet heat of hormonal upheaval, something cracks open, and she begins to reclaim the person she's long buried beneath obligation.For anyone moving through a major life transition—whether it's divorce, menopause, career change, or simply waking up to the ache of self-neglect—this novel is an anthem of autonomy. Kristin shares her writing journey with warmth and vulnerability, reminding us that transformation rarely looks glamorous, but it often begins with the smallest refusal. Clementine's story is not just fiction—it's a mirror, a permission slip, and a hopeful blueprint for choosing yourself, over and over again.Buy Clementine Crane Prefers Not To by Kristin Bair: https://amzn.to/3INQ6kg

“There's something I find strangely moving about the ‘Extracts' section of Moby Dick—before we even get into the text—by virtue of the attention that has been paid to the whale,” writer Wyatt Mason says in this episode of The World in Time. “It's astonishing as you're reading through. It's proof of two kinds of life. It's proof of the life of the creature itself. But it's also proof of the life of the mind and the attention that we pay—meaning, we readers and we writers pay—through time to this creature, which is very different from the elephant because most of us never see one in our lifetimes. If we're fortunate, we might, but for the most part, no. So they reside or they live in texts.” With this episode, the second in an intermittent series on the literature, history, and science of the sea, The World in Time launches onto the waters of Moby Dick. The episode begins with excerpts from a pair of conversations Lewis Lapham recorded during his final years as host. First, Lapham speaks with Richard J. King about his 2019 book, Ahab's Rolling Sea: A Natural History of Moby-Dick. In the second excerpted interview, recorded in 2022, Lapham talks with Aaron Sachs about Up From the Depths: Herman Melville, Lewis Mumford, and Rediscovery in Dark Times. The episode concludes with a new conversation. Wyatt Mason and Donovan Hohn talk about the first time they read Moby Dick, about teaching Melville's novel to incarcerated students enrolled in the Bard Prison Initiative, and then, like a pair of sub-sub-librarians, they swim through two curious documents, “Etymologies” and “Extracts,” that precede the famous first sentence of Melville's tragic Leviathan American novel.

Jen Stein joins Danny Ismond on the GX94 Morning Show to discuss events in the city of Melville.

In this episode, we dive into two bold anime reimaginings of literary classics—Gankutsuou, a visually stunning sci-fi take on The Count of Monte Cristo, and Hakugei: Legend of the Moby Dick, a space western inspired by Melville's iconic novel. We explore how these timeless stories were transformed through anime's unique lens.

Is there collusion in our field? Do we have elites running wild, making sure that their work gets published whilst the rest of us struggles to find room to publish our own work? And are we handling conflicts of interest that may exist between authors and the editors who are charged with making decisions about their work? These are serious questions. They target the core of our field, they have the potential to undermine – or bolster – the legitimacy of all our scholarship, and they pose serious material consequences for all scholars, their careers and ultimately their lives. We came across a new paper that reports an analysis of the potential conflict of interest issues in academic publishing, and we use this paper to reflect on our experiences as both authors and editors. We try to draw a few conclusions and recommendations about how we can raise awareness and build institutional trust to minimize if not avoid any questionable or outright unethical practices in publishing.

This week, we’ve got a spicy one from Kerry in Melville — four roommates, one missing dinnerware mystery, and a brand-new housemate who just moved in. Suddenly, plates, bowls, and mugs are disappearing like it’s a magic trick gone rogue. No broken glass, no explanations… just gone. Now Kerry’s wondering: Would it be totally out of line to peek into the newbie’s room while she’s out? Is that just smart detective work… or a hard no on the housemate code of conduct? We’re unpacking it all — the ethics, the instincts, and whether Kerry should trust her gut or call a house meeting instead. Because nothing brings out the real drama like shared kitchens and passive-aggressive group chats.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pensées Catholiques v.1: Essais by Edward L Helmrich https://www.amazon.com/Pens%C3%A9es-Catholiques-v-1-Edward-Helmrich/dp/1778835988 In literary criticism, the consideration of the religious motivations of the writer is often neglected. Four classics are considered in terms of the religious ideas their authors wished to present: Shakespeare, Milton, Melville, T.S. Eliot. Several Catholic/Christian theological problems are addressed, for example did God always intend to become man, or not? Is there a model for the Eucharist in the natural world? Can the image of the Trinity be seen in the basis of the physical world? Short essays describe four pillars of Catholicism: the Mass; the Bible; the Rosary; Marian apparitions. Finally there are pithy sayings from Father Benedict Groeschel.

“The 5 Things” with David Melville Scarlett and David Melville discussed his book, The 5 Things, and its focus on expressing love and personal growth, with David sharing personal stories about his aunt Isa's late-life transformation and his approach to managing negative thoughts. They explored various concepts including thought control, gratitude, and the importance of choosing love in challenging situations, with David emphasizing the impact of mindset changes and Scarlett sharing her experiences with forgiveness and teaching others about love. Scarlett and David agree about the importance of building connections, practicing gratitude, and the value of being present, with both authors encouraging listeners to engage with their work and spread positive messages of love and kindness. Living life with no regret isn't about being perfect or never making mistakes — it's about living intentionally, learning deeply, and loving fully. https://sharing5things.com/ Learn more About Scarlett here: https://chooselovemovement.org/

Tựa đề chữ vàng in trên bìa sách toàn một màu đen. Chỉ cần liếc nhìn qua, giới độc giả ghiền truyện trinh thám đều nhận ra ngay bộ sưu tập « Série Noire » của nhà xuất bản Pháp Gallimard. Năm 2025 đánh dấu đúng 80 năm ngày ra đời của tủ sách nổi tiếng Série Noire, mà bạn đọc ở Pháp thường gọi nôm na là « tiểu thuyết đen ».   Tủ sách « Série Noire » ra đời vào mùa hè năm 1945, theo đề xuất của dịch giả Marcel Duhamel. Ngoài đời là bạn thân của nhà văn Jacques Prévert và thi hào Raymond Queneau, ông Duhamel đã thuyết phục nhà xuất bản Gallimard cho ra mắt một bộ sưu tập hoàn toàn mới thời hậu chiến, để giới thiệu với bạn đọc ở Pháp những tiểu thuyết trinh thám tiêu biểu của Anh-Mỹ qua việc dịch các tác giả trứ danh như Peter Cheyney, Raymond Chandler hay Don Tracy …  Mãi đến 3 năm sau (1948), theo sáng kiến của giám đốc điều hành nhà xuất bản Claude Gallimard, bộ sưu tập này mới bắt đầu phát triển mạnh, tăng số lượng bản in cũng như các tựa sách phát hành mỗi năm. Nhờ vào sự hưởng ứng của bạn đọc, tủ truyện « Série Noire » đã thành công nhanh chóng. Hơn một ngàn đầu sách được xuất bản trong 2 thập niên đầu tiên, mỗi năm sách đều bán được hơn cả triệu bản.  Thành công của thể loại văn học này lúc đầu luôn gắn liền với trào lưu phim trinh thám của Mỹ, còn được gọi là « film noir » chủ yếu nói về các vụ án và tội phạm, thế giới băng đảng và xã hội đen. Trong thời hậu chiến (1945-1952) các rạp chiếu phim Pháp chủ yếu khai thác phim trinh thám do Hollywood sản xuất từ những năm trước, nhưng vì đang có chiến tranh, khán giả Pháp chưa có dịp xem.  Kể từ năm 1953 trở đi, làng phim Pháp mới bắt đầu khai thác mạnh mẽ dòng phim này. Trả lời phỏng vấn RFI ban tiếng Pháp, nhà phê bình kiêm sử gia Alban Cerisier cho biết, ngay từ những năm 1950, tủ sách « Série Noire » đã gợi hứng cho các đạo diễn Pháp thực hiện nhiều bản phóng tác, đưa các bộ tiểu thuyết đen lên màn ảnh rộng, tạo ra một sự hợp tác chặt chẽ, vẫn còn tồn tại cho đến tận ngày nay : « Đúng vậy, đó là một mối quan hệ tuyệt vời, góp phần làm nên tên tuổi và uy tín của bộ sưu tập Série Noire. Mối quan hệ giữa tủ sách trinh thám và màn ảnh lớn đã tồn tại trong nhiều thập niên qua. Khi mới được thành lập, tủ sách này chủ yếu quảng bá các tiểu thuyết “đen” và dòng phim trinh thám theo kiểu Mỹ. Trong giai đoạn này, phải kể đến phim The Maltese Falcon (Chim ưng Malta) với Humphrey Bogart trong vai chính, This gun for hire (Kẻ giết mướn) với Alan Ladd và Veronica Lake. Những thập niên sau đó, có The Unseen (Sát thủ giấu mặt) và nhất là The Big Sleep (Giấc ngủ ngàn thu), dựa theo tiểu thuyết của nhà văn Raymond Chandler qua hai phiên bản, với Humphrey Bogart, cũng như Robert Mitchum trong vai chính.  Thời hậu chiến, làng phim Pháp chủ yếu khai thác phim Mỹ. Năm 1953 đánh dấu một cột mốc quan trọng, khi điện ảnh Pháp trở nên tự lập hơn, bắt đầu chuyển thể các bộ tiểu thuyết thành phim trinh thám. Đó là trường hợp của bộ phim "Touchez pas au grisbi" (tạm dịch Coi chừng chết … vì tiền) của đạo diễn Pháp Jacques Becker. Đây là phiên bản điện ảnh của quyển tiểu thuyết đen cùng tên của Albert Simonin. Bộ phim đánh dấu ngày trở lại của Jean Gabin sau nhiều năm vắng bóng và sự xuất hiện lần đầu tiên của Lino Ventura trên màn ảnh lớn. Trong mắt giới phê bình, "Touchez pas au grisbi” là tác phẩm khởi đầu cho trào lưu quay các bộ phim noir theo kiểu Pháp, hầu hết các tên tuổi lớn sau này đều tham gia như Jeanne Moreau, Jean-Paul Belmondo hay Alain Delon … »  Nhìn lại tủ truyện « Série Noire », trong số cả chục ngàn quyển tiểu thuyết được phát hành, đã có hơn 500 đầu sách đã được chuyển thể lên màn ảnh. Có thể nói là mỗi thập niên đều có những bộ phim ăn khách, phóng tác từ tiểu thuyết trinh thám. Theo sử gia Alban Cerisier, những thập niên sau 1950, đã cho ra đời nhiều tác phẩm quan trọng của những tên tuổi hàng đầu trong làng điện ảnh :  « Kể từ sau những năm 1950, dòng phim trinh thám hình sự đã có một số thay đổi về mặt đề tài để phán ánh những biến chuyển xã hội, nội dung phim cũng mang nhiều tính thời sự hơn. Một trong những gương mặt quan trọng trong giai đoạn này chính là ngôi sao màn bạc Pháp Alain Delon. Ông quan tâm nhiều đến thể loại hình sự cũng như dòng phim đen. Trong vai trò của một nhà sản xuất (nhiều hơn là diễn viên), Alain Delon đã giúp phổ biến thêm nhiều quyển tiểu thuyết qua phim ảnh. Trong giai đoạn này có thể nhắc đến “Mort d'un pourri” (Cái chết của một kẻ hám lợi), tiểu thuyết của Raf Vallet từng được Georges Lautner chuyển thể thành phim trinh thám với Alain Delon trong vai chính.  Thật ra, kể từ những năm 1965 trở đi, dòng phim noir không còn đơn thuần nói về thế giới của những kẻ lừa đảo, những tên côn đồ đâm thuê chém mướn … Những hình tượng ấy dần dần những chỗ lại cho những nhân vật phức tạp hơn về mặt tâm lý, qua tài viết kịch bản và dựng phim của làn sóng đạo diễn với phong cách mới như Truffaut, Godard, hay Melville. Đạo diễn François Truffaut đã tặng cho Jeanne Moreau một vai diễn để đời khi chuyển thể tiểu thuyết “The Bride wore black” (Áo tang ngày cưới) của William Irish, kể lại kế hoạch trả thù của một cô dâu, sau khi chứng kiến cảnh chồng mình bị sát hại ngay trong đám cưới.  Đạo diễn Melville tặng cho Jean Paul Belmondo một vai diễn xuất sắc trong phim "Le Doulos". Trong tiếng lóng, từ này hiểu theo nghĩa đen là cái mũ phớt, còn hiểu theo nghĩa bóng là kẻ chỉ điểm. Sự xuất hiện của Melville, Lautner, hay Truffaut (rất ngưỡng mộ đạo diễn Hitchcock) đã mang đến một luồng sinh khí mới cho thể loại phim trình thám, khi họ phản ánh các chủ đề mang tính thời sự xã hội, đi sâu hơn vào các đề tài tham nhũng, khi mọi giới, nhất là những người có quyền, càng dễ bị đồng tiền chi phối ».  Sau các đề tài chính trị xã hội, tủ truyện Série Noire cũng từng gặt hái khá nhiều thành công khi khai thác mạch truyện gián điệp. Trong một thời gian dài, nhà xuất bản Gallimard được quyền khai thác tủ sách James Bond (sau này mới đến phiên nhà xuất bản Robert Laffon), có lẽ cũng vì thế nhiều đầu sách của điệp viên 007 đã được đăng trong bộ sưu tập tiểu thuyết đen Série Noire. Nhà phê bình Alvan Cerisier giải thích về các trào lưu làm phim : « Các tác giả cũng như dịch giả của tủ truyện Série Noire sống với thời đại của họ. Dĩ nhiên là bộ truyện của Ian Fleming đã có nhiều bản phóng tác sang tiếng Pháp. Về mặt phiên bản điện ảnh, có hai tựa phim James Bond mà các bạn đọc tiếng Pháp tìm thấy trong tủ sách Série Noire. Đó là bộ phim « Diamonds are forever » (Điệp vụ kim cương) với Sean Connery, và sau đó là « Moonraker » (Căn cứ không gian) với Roger Moore. Có thể nói là thành công của James Bond đánh dấu thời kỳ huy hoàng của tiểu thuyết cũng như phim gián điệp. Ngoài ra, phim ảnh có tác động tích cực trong việc phổ biến sách truyện. Tính trung bình, một quyển tiểu thuyết trinh thám được xem là rất ăn khách khi bán được khoảng 100.000 bản. Đến khi được chuyển thể lên màn ảnh lớn, bộ phim có khả năng thu hút hàng triệu lượt người xem và trong số này sẽ có nhiều khán giả tìm đọc tiểu thuyết gốc. Mối quan hệ chặt chẽ ấy vẫn tồn tại cho đến ngày nay.  Việc chuyển thể sách thành kịch bản phim, nhiều hay ít, là tùy theo nhu cầu, chứ chưa bao giờ dừng lại. Chẳng hạn như phim « Zulu » với Orlando Bloom và Forest Whitaker trong vai chính, dựa theo tiểu thuyết của Caryl Férey. Đạo diễn Guillermo del Toro từng thử sức với phim trinh thám khi chuyển thể lên màn ảnh quyển tiểu thuyết đen « Nightmare Alley » (Con hẻm ác mộng) với Bradley Cooper trong vai chính. Ngoài ra, còn phải kể đến dòng truyện trinh thám đến từ vùng đất lạnh như trường hợp của nhà văn người Na Uy JoNesbo từng thành công với « The Snowman » (Sát nhân Người tuyết) với Michael Fassbender. Trong số các nhân vật nổi tiếng thích đọc Série Noire tại Pháp, có các nhà văn Jacques Prévert, Jean Giono, hay nghệ sĩ điêu khắc Giacometti. Có thể nói là chừng nào vẫn còn nhiều bạn đọc ghiền tiểu thuyết trinh thám, thì dòng phim hồi hộp hình sự vẫn còn nhiều kịch bản hay để dựng thành phim chiếu rạp cũng như phim truyền hình ».

After more than 12 years of doing this podcast, it was high time for us to review something by French director Jean-Pierre Melville. Le Samourai was his (and his star, Alain Delon's) homage to '40s Hollywood noir. This crime classic is about Delon's passive hitman, who's either too cool for school...or just doesn't care. In this one-Ryan show, the talk gets into  relating to Delon's loner mindset and solo lifestyle, although not so much his sparse apartment, his constant smoking or his work as a contract killer. Or having a chirpie bird for a roommate. The ending is puzzling...but it might be more understandable when you remember the code of an actual samurai. So put on your white gloves, pull out your heater and prepare for episode #668 of Have You Ever Seen. Melville's film didn't predate the French New Wave, but he himself did. He, Godard, Truffaut, all of 'em could no doubt have been even more prolific back in those days if they had Sparkplug Coffee.

Mad Bomber Melville is the long overdue biography of Samuel Melville, a white, working class revolutionary, whose guerrilla bombings of Manhattan skyscrapers, housing government and corporate offices driving the Vietnam War, set in motion a flood of armed revolutionary actions in the United States during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Once imprisoned, Melville became a key organizer and a crucial element of the notorious Attica Prison rebellion, uniting prisoners across racial barriers and making the ultimate sacrifice for revolutionary change. Mad Bomber Melville traces Sam Melville s short life and rapid political development, highlighting a much-needed example of an undying and uncompromising struggle for justice and liberation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Ep. 72 Tessa Melville has been with the Kent Police Department for eight years, though her introduction to law enforcement began much earlier through her stepfather, a police officer, and her mother, a dispatcher. The realities of the job were made very clear before she even started. At just 16 years old, Tessa joined her parents in attending the memorial service for the devastating ambush murders of four Lakewood Police Department officers – known as the Lakewood Four – all of them gunned down as they sat in a coffee shop on a Sunday morning in 2009.With only three months on with Kent PD, Tessa would face her own critical incidents including responding to the scene of the line of duty death of Kent Police Officer Diego Moreno during which she rendered aid to both him and another officer seriously wounded in a crash at the scene. We discuss the lasting impact of this incident on her and how it helped shape her career and her outlook.After three years in patrol, Tessa became a field training officer, a role which she says has been one of her most challenging. A few years later, Tessa joined the Detective Unit to work Special Assault, cases which include sexual assault, domestic violence, internet crimes against children, and elder abuse. Tessa decided to join this unit in part because of her personal experience as a sexual assault survivor. She wanted to bring her learnings and a trauma-informed approach to the work. However, after nearly two years as a detective on this unit, Tessa decided to return to patrol while continuing to investigate some of her cases, the reasons for which we will discuss.We also talk about how she didn't really consider law enforcement as a profession even with her family affiliation. She chose first to go into the military, where she spent five years in the Navy as a Green Side hospital corpsman where she received specialized training in traumatic field care, training she has put to use as a police officer.Thank you, Tessa.

#Melville #Summer

The internet is a balkanization of the populace: Everybody finds those they want to listen to. It is exceedingly difficult to teach somebody whose principal input in his life is through the internet. With a flesh-and-blood pastor, you at least can see his sins, his wife, and his children. Generally, with a pastor, you can't escape his bad smells, but on the internet, everything and everyone is perfect.The most difficult thing you do in ministry is to call your own congregation to repentance. It is easy to talk about the sins of people outside the church, but exceedingly costly to do so to those within the church. Your job is on the line. A godly church will love you for that. But there are a lot of bad congregations—those congregations that like their ears tickled. We should love our pastors when they make us angry with their helpfulness.Yet, if pastors will preach to their congregations, their congregations will lead the world. It is not until we are challenged to submit to Scripture ourselves that we will be salt and light in the world. If there is going to be a Biblical church, the most important thing to do is to keep its discipline vivified. But we'd much rather spend our time fighting people who are opposed to Christianity. NETTR protects the "constituents," and casts stones at the world.***Mentioned in the episode...From Melville's Moby Dick, chapter 8, "The Pulpit": "What could be more full of meaning?- for the pulpit is ever this earth's foremost part; all the rest comes in its rear; the pulpit leads the world. From thence it is the storm of God's quick wrath is first descried, and the bow must bear the earliest brunt. From thence it is the God of breezes fair or foul is first invoked for favorable winds. Yes, the world's a ship on its passage out, and not a voyage complete; and the pulpit is its prow."Fundamentalism and American Culture by George MarsdenC.S. Lewis, from The Last Battle: "By mixing a little truth with it, they had made their lie far stronger."Robert Owen: "All the world is queer, save thee and me, and even thou art a little queer."***Out of Our Minds Podcast: Pastors Who Say What They Think.

In 2010, the Association for Information Systems formed a special interest group () to nurture an international community of academics that study the role of digital technologies in fostering environmentally, economically and socially sustainable development. Fifteen years later, we sit down with , the current SIGGreen president, to reflect on the progress we have made. What do we know about how digital technologies help greening our planet? What efforts in empirical, theoretical, and design work is still needed? Is our role to understand the role of digital technologies or do we need to push and enact change ourselves? We conclude that environmental questions and problems are now firmly on the radar screen of our discipline but more work needs to be done for information systems academics to transform the way we think about and use digital technologies.  Episode reading list Corbett, J., & Mellouli, S.

Nebyl hostem Jednoho procenta poprvé a určitě ani naposled. Tomáš Baránek: spoluzakladatel nakladatelství Melville, které se zaměřuje na takzvané chytré knihy, ať už z oblasti osobního rozvoje, lifehackingu nebo třeba zdraví.O čem jsme tentokrát mluvili? O stárnutí, zralosti, hledání rovnováhy v životě, vztahu k smrti, dlouhověkosti i o tom, jak se Tomáši žije a pracuje v dnešní době plné informací.Přehlédnout byste neměli ani to, že jsme se trochu pohádali kvůli jednomu z nástrojů umělé inteligence. Tomáš je v tomto ohledu spíše opatrným a obezřetným uživatelem. Na druhou stranu, ví dobře, o čem mluví. Jak se rovněž dozvíte, takzvaně na stará kolena se vrátil do školních lavic, konkrétně na brněnskou techniku, na svou alma mater, a studuje právě strojové učení.Doufám, že vás naše povídání nebude nudit. Nebo že vás moc nevyděsí, dost často se nebavíme o úplně veselých věcech.Přeju příjemný poslech!

What do you do when life throws you two cataclysmic curve balls in a short period of time that fracture your whole identity? My guest today is Lucy Melville. Lucy is a widow, and mother of three young people. Her husband Brian died of stage IV lung cancer in July 2023 just 6 weeks after diagnosis whilst her youngest child was still at school. Just one year after losing her husband, Lucy was unexpectedly made redundant from the job that kept her functioning through her grief.  In this moving and emotional interview, Lucy talks us through the surreal process of finding out about Brian's diagnosis and navigating the speed of his illness and ultimately his death just a short time later. She describes the impact on her and her children of losing the husband and father they adored, and then being rocked again by dealing with both an empty nest as her children left home, and the compounded grief of losing the job (and second ‘work family') that had kept her steady through her bereavement.  Lucy talks honestly about how isolated, invisible, and abandoned she felt at this time in her life, but also the subsequent reinvention after her long dark night of the soul, and finding hope and renewed sense of identity through her new business venture River Light Press.  Listen in to hear Lucy's advice for anyone grappling with difficult times right now, and be inspired by her heroine's journey to light and a new life.  You can find Lucy at https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucymelville and River Light Press at https://www.aurorametro.com/river-light-press/  If you enjoy the podcast please help us grow by sharing this episode with someone who might need to listen or writing us a review.

Film historian Samm Deighan and cult cinema expert Andrew Leavold join Mike to shine a light on Jean-Pierre Melville's Two Men in Manhattan (1959). Often overshadowed by his better-known crime films, this moody noir follows a journalist and a photographer as they comb the streets of New York in search of a missing French diplomat. The trio digs into Melville's fascination with American style, the film's ethically murky characters, and how it fits within the director's larger body of work. They also explore the tension between documentary realism and stylized noir, and why Two Men in Manhattan deserves a second look. Author Ginette Vincendeau (Jean-Pierre Melville: An American in Paris), discusses this unique entry in Melville's filmography. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

John and Ben dive deep into Scam-erican literature this week with the help of friend of the pod and resident Melville expert: Chris Thomas. We discuss Melville's final novel: "The Confidence Man: His Masquerade". Topics of discussion include the trustworthiness of barbers, America's enduring interest in flim-flam artists of all sorts, and the long shadow of Don Quixote. As always, we hope that you enjoy the conversation.

From All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #073, part 5 George W. Melville was the MacGyver of his day, seemingly creating something out of nothing when the situation called for it. As an engineer he was unsurpassed. He was one of only a few survivors of the ill-fated attempt to reach the North Pole by the ship Jeannette, captained by George DeLong. He then went back to recover the bodies of those who had been left behind. He has a statue at the Naval Yard and was twice painted by Thomas Eakins. 

Isaac Hull led USS Constitution to victory against HMS Guerriere in the early days of the War of 1812. Fellow tour guide Russ Dodge wrote this script but declined the opportunity to narrate it. David Conner worked with Winfield Scott to arrange the largest amphibious assault of the 19th century at Vera Cruz during the Mexican American War. While serving in the African Squadron, Sylvanus Godon captured the slave ship Erie, which led to the return of nearly 900 Africans to their home continent, and the hanging of “Lucky Nat” Gordon, the only man to be executed by the Government for buying and selling human beings. George W. Melville was a genius engineer and Arctic explorer who was among the survivors of the doomed USS Jeannette Polar mission in 1879-1881. Four men who spent their lives on the ocean and had startling tales to tell of their adventures in this month's episode of All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #073 for April 2025 – Four Naval Heroes: Isaac Hull, David Conner, Sylvanus Godon, and George Melville.
