Celeste Ng and Grief and modern masculinity with Bobby Palmer and Michael Pedersen

Our Book of the Week is an exceptional meditation on masculinity, male friendship and grief. Poet and author Michael Pedersen lost a cherished friend, Scott Hutchison, soon after their voyage across the Scottish Highlands. Just weeks later, Michael began to write to him. As he confronts the bewildering process of grief, what starts as a love letter to one magical, coruscating human soon becomes a paean to all the gorgeous male friendships that have transformed his life. 'As perfect a portrait of friendship as I've ever read.' STEPHEN FRY Boy Friends by Michael Pedersen is published by Faber and available now. We recommend buying from your local indie or you can get it from our shop at Bookshop.org. Exclusive signed copies are also available from Portobello Bookshop.

Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh and Bríd Harper of the group SíFiddlers, who are performing at the Earagail Arts Festival; poet Michael Pedersen discusses his new book 'Boy Friends'; artist Lorcan Walshe on his exhibition at the Hunt Museum; and Chris Wasser reviews the new Netflix series Resident Evil.

This week's guest is Michael Pedersen, whose new book Boy Friends is a profoundly personal, searingly honest examination of grief, inspired by the death of Scott Hutchison, the author's dearest friend, and artistic co-conspirator Although heartbreaking at moments, Boy Friends is by no means a depressing book. In fact it's funny, and tender, and insightful, as well as an authentic and touching quest to give voice to the maelstrom of emotions such a devastating loss provokes. It's also an examination of male friendship, and the difficulties many of us have expressing the love that underpins them, having been brought up in societies that minimise or mock such emotions.*SUBSCRIBE NOW FOR BONUS EPISODESLooking for Friends of Shakespeare and Company read Ulysses? https://podfollow.com/sandcoulyssesIf you want to spend even more time at Shakespeare and Company, you can now subscribe for regular bonus episodes and early access to Friends of Shakespeare and Company read Ulysses.Subscribe on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/sandcoSubscribe on Apple Podcasts here: https://podcasts.apple.com/fr/podcast/shakespeare-and-company-writers-books-and-paris/id1040121937?l=enAll money raised goes to supporting “Friends of Shakespeare and Company” the bookshop's non-profit, created to fund our noncommercial activities—from the upstairs reading library, to the writers-in-residence program, to our charitable collaborations, and our free events.*Michael Pedersen is a prize-winning Scottish poet and author.

It was my pleasure to have Michael Pedersen is Host/Producer of Cannabis Update Podcast, Founder of Distinct Media as well as Station Manager of Multicultural Broadcasting Corporation, Inc. in Calgary Alberta. “Michael has worked in broadcasting and managed radio stations since 2005. Before radio, he worked in the Vancouver film industry as a post-production editor and location sound recordist. He has produced an estimated 7000 audio commercials for radio along with countless jingles, stingers, sonic brands and more. Distinct Media now produces radio commercials & audio for video for small to medium-sized businesses looking to get a "distinct" form of brand awareness in multiple markets across Canada & beyond.” He also is a husband and father of two young boys. I appreciated Michael’s willingness to come on the podcast and share some pro-tips related to podcasting and marketing that have already proved helpful. He infuses his work with loads of enthusiasm, wit and genuine interest in all subject matter. It was a lot of fun to chat about common challenges in podcasting, experiences interviewing in the cannabis space as well as hear his thoughts on the state of the cannabis industry in Canada vs the US, and more. The Cannabis Update Podcast is a podcast that gives leaders & organizations an opportunity to tell their stories and share information. Based on a long-form interview format, the podcast has featured countless industry leaders, giving them an opportunity to communicate their message in a timely and professional manner. This podcast falls under the umbrella of Distinct Media, which he also founded & currently directs. Here's a quote from Michael discussing the podcast, “My day job is a general manager at a radio station in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. So, my background is in production. So naturally, podcasting is something that I liked originally like, I like listening to them. And when the cannabis whole, the whole business of cannabis in Canada started to evolve and grow, I saw a need for a podcast that sort of interviewed industry players. So with my production background, and with my interest in the cannabis space, I thought, well, this is perfect, why don't I just jump in and start so that's really why I started and I had friends who were investing in Cannabis Stocks in Canada. And when I looked into it, I thought, well, there's got to be a podcast out there, I can listen to where I can learn about the companies. And there wasn't, I thought, Oh, geez, I got it. I better do something here. So that's kind of like how I started, and the podcast has evolved over time. Now it's a little bit more culture and not always business. You know, some science I try really get into the individual, the personalities of the people in the space, so people get to know who's kind of steering the ship in these companies, you know, a little bit more than simply numbers and figures” He talks about podcasting challenges and how he created Cannabis Media Collective to bring several podcasts together, “Why not create a place where all of us can produce and publish together so that if you subscribe to one thing, the cannabis media collective, every single day, you get a new podcast from a new producer? And you don't have to go around and have 50 subscriptions and try to read through them and all that. The only thing about it though, is it's a lot of work. And it's hard to monetize it, like anything. And yeah, it's hard to make money off it. So, you have to really like it has to be in your heart. You have to want to do this. And you have to write to make it work in your schedule. I have two little boys. So, I'm up at 5 am most days producing and editing and sending emails and all that because that's my time. I can't do it at your school time.” He mentions challenges getting paid for his work and how he addresses this, “I’ll interview your multimillion-dollar CEO. I'm going to send you a media kit and here My price is (xyz) and they'll say like, Oh, we don't have a budget for this. And I say, well, you gave me that big song and dance about how huge you are and how you're going to be the next Coca Cola of CBD. I don't understand why you can't afford a few hundred dollars for me to put in probably four hours work for you and help you promote yourself?” We also discussed his thoughts on the cannabis industry as a whole, “Well, I think that we're in a very, very interesting place. And you know, as far as the science that surrounds the cannabis plant is concerned, you know, and I speak for Canada, I think the US is the same. We've been prohibited since like the 1920s. People haven't even in controlled laboratory environments that have not been allowed by law to even look at the plant, which is bonkers. But now, that's all changing, and we have a lot of extremely qualified PhDs chemists that are really looking at it on a molecular level. I think you're going to see in the next decade, a lot of change in the medical environment. But unfortunately, it could turn out that pharmaceutical companies buy up all the technology trademark everything and turn around and sell it to make a profit all over again. Like, it's not to say that this is going to change the world, this could actually just turn into another pharmaceutical avenue of revenue for those guys. And that's what I fear.” Talking about the differences between the Cannabis market in the US vs. Canada, “And in Canada, it goes province by province, as far as local regulations go on the cannabis plant and retail and that sort of thing. So, I'm in Alberta, and within a year in Alberta, we had 350 stores in our province 350 with a population of about 3 million in the whole province. You take British Columbia, which has a way larger population, a way longer history of cannabis culture. You know, so much great legacy market cannabis has grown there to this day, and they're like, super restrictive. They're just starting to roll stores out now. And it's crazy, but it just boils down to the provincial government and what they decide that they want to do for their own provinces. Some provinces are rolling along making tons of tax revenue. And other ones are still trying to figure out how to make the model work, which is crazy. So, you look at comparing Canada in the US. You go into a legal dispensary in Oregon. They've got so many cool products; you know what I mean? Edibles and different things and you can learn about them. And it's almost like, you know, microbreweries for a beer or something. We don't allow that. Yet. The problem with craft in Canada is that the government requires so much paperwork, for example. And if you want to do a craft facility, you have to build it first before you can apply for a license. So, think about the kind of money you need just to get the ball rolling. They're making it almost impossible craft market to proliferate. Now, will it change? I'm hoping so. And now what they're doing is they're creating co-ops. A lot of craft growers or potential craft growers are saying, Let's work together. Let's build almost like a union. And let's approach it together and all apply together and help each other that way. So that's it. Probably the biggest differences between Canada and the US.” Regarding medicinal Cannabis in Canada, “we do have clinics in Canada, and most of our major cities now that specialize in diagnosing and prescribing cannabis-related medicine. They tend to be more on the private end because we have social medicine here in Canada. But you can go in there and they have doctors who are making their best efforts to be knowledgeable about cannabis as medicine. So that's changing but the thing is, cannabis isn't really regarded federally as medicine the same way that a prescription might be for some pharmaceutical. A lot of medical cannabis patients in Canada are upset by that, there are different taxes that apply. You can't get it the same way, can't source it. Still a lot of rules and loopholes. If you want cannabis to help you sleep, or maybe stimulate your appetite, there's a whole system you have to go through in order to qualify for it and then get a prescription. They have to order it, and it has to come in the mail…totally different. So, we still have a long way to go with medicinal cannabis here.” Finally, a parting quote from Michael, followed by his links and recent articles, “Now you can't be afraid to evolve and when you see somebody doing something and you go “that would make it better, just go forget it. I'm doing it. Bang. And that's not to say change everything but don't be afraid of change.” Michael’s Links: Cannabis Update Podcast: http://www.cannabisupdate.ca/ Distinct Media: https://www.distinctmedia.ca/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-pedersen-98263213 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cannabisupdatepodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CannUpdatePod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrDyXDaJaoMtFwsXsHi6xhA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cannupdatepod/ Article: https://timlowing.com/read-the-lowdown-here/f/michael-pedersen---canadian-cannabis-update

Nu kan du få en mail, når der er en ny episode af Solopreneurcast Få mail om nye episoder * skal udfyldes   Email  *   Fornavn *   Efternavn    Karin Høghs cohost denne gang er Michael Pedersen fra Roskilde Dybdemassage  Han medbringer ugens cooltool:  wpthemedetector.com.  Her kan man tjekke hvilket template og hviklke plug-ins, der er brugt til en bestemt Wordpress-hjemmeside. Servicen koster ikke noget.  Michael er optaget af, om vi nu også udtrykker os klart nok og om vi ved, om vi mister kunder, fordi de antager noget, som ikke er realitet.   Eks.   Dit firmanavn: Antager du at de kan huske dit firmanavn ? Kan de afkode hvad du sælger? Hvis de vil købe og ikke kan huske dit firmanavn, så smutter de.   Sprogligt: (hjemmeside/nyhedsbreve) Værdiladede ord Tvetydige/indforståed ord (åbent i weekenden/lørdag og søndag) Humor Fagudtryk Meget at hente ved at kigge det igennem Rækkefølgen af klik/adfærd på hjemmesiden Forudsætter køb en bestemt sekvens af klik ? At kunden gør bestemte ting- f.eks “Ring for uforpligtende tilbud”  Grafisk/visuelt  Call to action- farve/form etc opfattes den som en “købsknap” Eget nyhedsbrev- fin knap/tekst link Tegn på du “antager” noget andet end kunderne  Er der ting kunderne tit spørger dig om ?   Karin har været på messe, men som opsøgende ikke som udstiller, og det har fået hende til at gøre nogle tanker om, hvordan man nogle gange kan være langt foran med en idé og derfor ikke skal vente på, at kunder og partnere kommer til én.  Men hvis man har et kendt produkt, kan man godt nøjes med at holde til på en hjemmeside og i en fysisk butik.  Er du den opsøgende, eller vil du bare gerne opsøges?  Vi diskuterer lidt visse cafeers ønske om at holde kunder med laptops væk, fordi de kan skræmme andre kunder væk og fordi de køber for lidt, mens de arbejder.    Og så er websitet/søgemaskinen Better.dk som Kim Sørensen er gået konkurs med røget ud  i en shitstorm. Han har trukket oplysninger om virksomheder ind imod deres viden eller samtykke.  Siden har desuden en knap til emails, men mange har oplevet ikke at have modtaget mails. Hvis man vil fjernes fra sitet, kan man skrive til kim@better.dk og håbe på svar.

Der er måske lidt for meget Yin i SolopreneurCast - men denne gang er der mere Yang, for Michael Pedersen, altså en mand, er med som cohost. ;-) Han fortæller, hvordan han i sin egen virksomhed Roskilde Dybdemassage er opmærksomhed, op, om der er ubalance - altså for meget yang og for lidt Yin. Og omvendt.  Det er vigtigt at bruge yin/yang og 5 elementsteori i sin virksomhed. Hvis man holder øje med om der er ubalance og handler efter det, kan man bedre undgå, at man selv og virksomheden dermed bliver syg.  En af de ting, der kan gøre en virksomhedsejer syg, er også at være for hård ved sig selv. Karin er faldet over denne grafik om emnet. Anna Vital tegner grafikker om de kloge tanker, hun gør sig, og nogle af dem kan købes som plakater.  Karin har også handlet og anmeldt den person, som gik meget langt for at få udleveret varer for 50.000 kroner i PodConsults Butik. Det er blevet til en sag om "forsøg på bedrageri". Hun opfordrer til, at man er skeptisk og tjekker større ordrer til virksomheder - måske har de slet ikke tænkt sig at betale.  Hvis du har en Wordpress-blog, så har du en god grund til at deltage i Wordcamp på ITU på Amager i den kommende weekend. Karin kommer lørdag klokken 14 og voser, hvordan du kan bruge din Wordpress-blog til at podcaste. Med de rigtige plug-ins og hosting-services.  Du kan også her på Karins gratis ekursus i Podcasting. 

Karin og Cammilla har sat sig i studiet på Frederiksberg for at indspille sidste episode inden sommerferien.  Vi tager en lang small talk i denne episode og taler om hvordan vi forbereder os til sommerferie, hvordan vi forholder os i sommerferien og hvordan vi planlægger opstart efter ferien. Vi har også fået et par fif fra lytterne: Anja Lysholm, http://anjalysholm.dk/ skriver i Facebook gruppen: "Når det er vejr til det (!!), sidder jeg rigtig meget på min altan og nyder solen med en god kop kaffe og mine notesbøger. Lader kreativiteten og tankerne flyde og skriver løst og fast ned. Dét elsker jeg." Vi fik et par fif fra nogle af deltagerne i vores frokost: Camilla Hey, http://camillahey.dk/ Hold "fri" dagen før og dagen efter ferien. 3 ugers ferie hvor hun er helt offline. Brug autoreply. Lise Halskov, http://onlinehaj.dk  Holder ferie, men tager arbejdet med - og får sine bedste ideer, mens hun holder ferie. Trine Thorendal, http://trinethorendal.dk/ Gør som du plejer ... fra en liggestol med en gin og tonic. Læs noget faglitteratur som er lidt skævt ift. det du arbejder med lige nu. Michael Pedersen, http://www.roskildedybdemassage.dk/ Foreslår at sætte sig på en bæk i en park og så bare lade tankerne flyde og ideerne komme til sig. Og så har en super god pointe.  Cammillas ferietips/planer Oprydning - både fysisk og digitalt. Back-up. Opdatere passwords. Hjemmeside opdateres (mental proces - hvad vil jeg have i butikken - hvad skal der udbydes resten af året). Karins ferietips/planer Er i kolonihaven hele sommeren - det er stadig i byen, så jeg kan passe lager og pakker alligevel, men det er næsten som at være på ferie, og så kommer der en masse ferieglade gæster forbi. Tilbage er der bare at sige GOD SOMMERFERIE. Nu skal vi ud og spise frokost og evaluere på podcasten. Vi skal beslutte om vi fortsætter, om det skal være i nuværende form eller om der skal andre værter på banen.  Tak for første år. Vi har nydt det og været så glade for jer lyttere.

Karin og Cammilla byder velkommen til ugens episode af SolopreneurCast. CoolTool Stafetten Er i denne uge fra Michael Pedersen, Roskilde Dybdemassage SimpleMind Det er en mindmap-app, fås både til IPhone/android og pc/mac. Jeg bruger det til at få et visuelt overblik de ting jeg vil lave/skal lave men også til ideer til nyhedsbreve, ideer til markedsføring osv. Det er meget nemt og smidigt at bruge. Man kan skifte imellem forskellige grafiske/visuelle måder at få vist ens mindmap på.  Google Analytics realtime  Karin har igen fået omtale med link til hendes webshop og så var der pletter på Google Analytics realtime. Hun har hentet en app til at følge med > http://www.myanalyticsapp.com/  Niche - Nicheprodukter Undgå at skyde med spredehagl og sige, at du hjælper alle med alt. Det er der ingen, der bemærker. Find i stedet ud af forskellige nicheprodukter, så du skiller dig ud i mængden. Kan din virksomhed overleve uden dig? Har du skrevet virksomhedstestamente - eller er det ikke noget for os? Karin er meget optaget af, hvordan man som solopreneur undgår at efterlade sig et morads til familie, partnere og kunder, hvis man skulle "falde af karussellen" i utide.  Advokater kan hjælpe med meget, men måske har vi brug for et online "testamente", hvor vores efterladte kan tjekke ind og se, hvordan de enten fører virksomheden videre eller lukker den den på en ordentlig måde.  Marketing High Five Brug din brochure og visitkort kreativt og skil dig ud i mængden. Det var alt for os.  Karin & Cammilla Kontakt os på mail Karin > Cammilla > Følg podcasten via   

One of the more heartening developments of recent years as far as Scottish literature is concerned is the development of Edinburgh’s thriving spoken word scene. Throw a stone in Edinburgh and you’ll hit someone involved at some level. At the forefront of the scene is Neu! Reekie!, a night mixing poetry, film and music, and the brainchild of two poets, Kevin Williamson and Michael Pedersen. Pedersen’s debut collection Play With Me (Polygon) has just been published so it seemed a good time to ask him about the Edinburgh scene, and his poetry.

In a bumper packed edition of the podcast, we present the wonderful Elizabeth Burns reading from her recent collection Held which was launched at the SPL last year. We also chat to legendary publisher, poet, cosmologist, editor Kevin Williamson and poet, script doctor, ex-exile Michael Pedersen, organisers of new Edinburgh poetry night, Neu Reekie. Also featuring a track from Michael Pedersen and Craig Finnie. Presented by Ryan Van Winkle. Produced by Colin Fraser of Anon Poetry Magazine http://www.anonpoetry.co.uk and @anonpoetry.
