The Spleen makes some questionable investments after his wildly successful crowdfunding campaign, Spencer sells out to Big Pop-Tart and may have caused a Marvel movie to flop, and other hard hitting topics like at what point Spencer's bed becomes "made". We also pitch a modern reboot of Moby Dick, which goes great with all the weird Fanta that Kevin found. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Melville's classic is always right at the top of BEST EVER novels lists. We really dig into what is so appealing about this masterpiece: its weird structure, its likeable, unique narrator, an open-mindedness that seems pretty radical for 1851 (including some serious homoeroticism)--and, of course, the appeal of Queequeg, everyone's favorite harpooner.

È iniziato il nuovo anno scolastico ticinese 2025-2026, che lunedì scorso ha visto tornare nelle aule 55mila allieve e allievi (fra scuole pubbliche e private) e oltre 6mila docenti. La campanella di inizio anno rimane invece in silenzio presso la sede della Scuola Rudolf Steiner di Origlio che nel corso dell'estate ha dichiarato auto-fallimento, dopo anni di crescenti difficoltà finanziarie e gestionali. Si conclude così un'esperienza educativa durata quasi 50 anni, di cui Moby Dick oggi ripercorre la storia, fra alti e bassi, il modello pedagogico e l'importanza, all'interno del contesto ticinese. Con Lucia Faillaci, già docente della Scuola Steiner di Origlio e presidente dell'Associazione Amici della Pedagogia di Rudolf Steiner, oggi docente di scuola pubblica; Alessandro Galli, docente e consulente pedagogico steineriano e Djamila Agustoni, responsabile della Scuola Rudolf Steiner di Rivapiana Locarno.In apertura di puntata un'intervista alla Direttrice del DECS Marina Carobbio sulle sfide e sulle priorità della scuola ticinese per l'anno 2025-26.

It's been a year since his last episode, so what's artist Dmitry Samarov been up to? Plenty! We talk about his new project of redesigning and illustrating public domain books, why he started off with the White Whale itself, and why Babbitt! was next in line, what the common themes are among the six books he's illustrated since this project began, and how it all ties into his reaction to the 2024 election. We get into what it's like working with publishers after controlling his own books for years, how he discovered James Hogg's The Suicide's Grave on SOME OTHER PODCAST (okay, it was Beyond The Zero), how he's exploring visual interpretation and different tools with each book, and how this project has him reading and rereading differently than he used to. We also talk about how he looks back at his art in the wake of his self-monograph, how he got into a relationship with someone after a long time solo (after a showing of why Cronenberg's not-good The Shrouds), what other books he's considering illustrating, his new series of 'zines about bookselling, the joy of Moby Dick's tangents, and more.

The album includes licensed audio snippets and spoken word recordings, including a subway performer. Reid highlighted the eclectic nature of the album, crediting co-producer Ivan Julian and mix engineer Scotty Hard.

La banda madrileña de indie rock Selvajes nos presenta su álbum El despegue. Formada por Jaime Cascón (voz), Marcos Folgado (batería), Ulrich Velasco (guitarra solista), Ángel Alarcos (bajo) y Álex TJ (Guitarra rítmica). El viernes 26 de septiembre tocarán en la sala Moby Dick de Madrid para presentar el álbum. Alex TJ: “Para que salga el sol primero tienen que irse las nubes. Nuestras pretensiones actualmente son en España”. Jaime Cascón: “Empecé a los 15 años a cantar en el cole y desde ese momento me enamoré de la música”. Ulrich Velasco: “Nuestro público suelen ser personas que están cansados de la música fast food de ahora y quieren escuchar música de verdad”. Marcos Folgado: “De momento no estamos centrados en hacer muchos videoclips”.

For just over a decade, from 1956 to 1967, a collection of dilapidated former sail-making warehouses clustered at the lower tip of Manhattan became the quiet epicenter of the art world. Coenties Slip, a dead-end street near the water, was home to a circle of wildly talented and varied artists that included Robert Indiana, Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, James Rosenquist, Delphine Seyrig, Lenore Tawney, and Jack Youngerman. As friends and inspirations to one another, they created a unique community for unbridled creative expression and experimentation, and the works they made at the Slip would go on to change the course of American art. Now, for the first time, in The Slip: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Forever (Harper, 2023) Dr. Prudence Peiffer pays homage to these artists and the unsung impact their work had on the direction of late twentieth-century art and film. This remarkable biography, as transformative as the artists it illuminates, questions the very concept of a “group” or “movement,” as it spotlights the Slip's eclectic mix of gender and sexual orientation, abstraction and Pop, experimental film, painting, and sculpture, assemblage and textile works. Brought together not by the tenets of composition or technique, nor by philosophy or politics, the artists cultivated a scene at the Slip defined by a singular spirit of community and place. They drew lasting inspiration from one another, but perhaps even more from where they called home, and the need to preserve the solitude its geography fostered. Despite Coenties Slip's obscurity, the entire history of Manhattan was inscribed into its cobblestones—one of the first streets and central markets of the new colony, built by enslaved people, with revolutionary meetings at the tavern just down Pearl Street; named by Herman Melville in Moby Dick and site of the boom and bust of the city's maritime industry; and, in the artists's own time, a development battleground for Jane Jacobs and Robert Moses. The Slip's history is entwined with that of the artists and their art—eclectic and varied work that was made from the wreckage of the city's many former lives. An ambitious and singular account of a time, a place, and a group of extraordinary people, The Slip investigates the importance of community, and makes an argument for how we are shaped by it, and how it in turns shapes our work. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

“In this part of the essay, Emerson is talking about walking a lot, you know, sort of walking through nature, taking a stroll,” says James Marcus in this week's episode of The World in Time. “He has this rather sublime experience, and he describes it in this way: ‘Standing on the bare ground, my head bathed by the blithe air and uplifted into infinite space, all mean egotism vanishes. I become a transparent eyeball. I am nothing. I see all. The currents of the universal being circulate through me. I am a part or particle of God.' Now, I mean, that is lofty stuff, and it can edge over into silliness. In a way, if you picture it, it starts to be silly and that is why Christopher Cranch's cartoon is hilarious, because a literalization of it is kind of ridiculous, in a way. Part of the thing I love about Emerson is that he wasn't afraid to seem silly in his eagerness to render the experience. What he's talking about—if you get away from the actual image of an eyeball with a top hat on—is a kind of ecstatic merger with the universe, where the walls drop, the boundaries drop, the currents of the universe move through you. If you look at it that way, he's talking about a classic ecstatic experience.” This week on the podcast, Donovan Hohn speaks with writer and biographer James Marcus about his book Glad to the Brink of Fear: A Portrait of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson's sense of self was, Marcus says, “kaleidoscopic,” and so is this episode, presenting not one Emerson but many: Emerson the public intellectual who cherished the privacy of his study, Emerson the lapsed minister who left the church but continued to preach on the lyceum circuit, Emerson the initially reluctant but eventually ardent abolitionist, Emerson the Swedenborgian mystic, Emerson the loner who deeply loved his friends Margaret Fuller and Henry Thoreau, Emerson the son estranged from his father, Emerson the father undone by grief for his dead son, and, finally, Emerson the volunteer firefighter. Marcus and Hohn also go searching for Emersonian influences in “The Mast-Head” chapter of Moby Dick. But they spend most of the conversation with the essayist from Concord, that artisan of indelible sentences, whom Melville once compared to a great philosophical whale who could dive “five miles or more,” sounding the depths.

Now, for the first time, in The Slip: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Forever (Harper, 2023) Dr. Prudence Peiffer pays homage to these artists and the unsung impact their work had on the direction of late twentieth-century art and film. This remarkable biography, as transformative as the artists it illuminates, questions the very concept of a “group” or “movement,” as it spotlights the Slip's eclectic mix of gender and sexual orientation, abstraction and Pop, experimental film, painting, and sculpture, assemblage and textile works. Brought together not by the tenets of composition or technique, nor by philosophy or politics, the artists cultivated a scene at the Slip defined by a singular spirit of community and place. They drew lasting inspiration from one another, but perhaps even more from where they called home, and the need to preserve the solitude its geography fostered. Despite Coenties Slip's obscurity, the entire history of Manhattan was inscribed into its cobblestones—one of the first streets and central markets of the new colony, built by enslaved people, with revolutionary meetings at the tavern just down Pearl Street; named by Herman Melville in Moby Dick and site of the boom and bust of the city's maritime industry; and, in the artists's own time, a development battleground for Jane Jacobs and Robert Moses. The Slip's history is entwined with that of the artists and their art—eclectic and varied work that was made from the wreckage of the city's many former lives. An ambitious and singular account of a time, a place, and a group of extraordinary people, The Slip investigates the importance of community, and makes an argument for how we are shaped by it, and how it in turns shapes our work. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

For just over a decade, from 1956 to 1967, a collection of dilapidated former sail-making warehouses clustered at the lower tip of Manhattan became the quiet epicenter of the art world.

“Well, I mean for starters it still is the greatest first sentence ever,” says Francine Prose in this week's episode of The World in Time. “I mean, three words. A three-word first sentence. I think if you were to ask a kind of range of readers, ‘Can you think of a first sentence?' You know, you probably get ‘It was the best of times, and the worst of times' or ‘the worst of times, and the best of times,' and people would get it backwards. But then you get ‘Call me Ishmael.' Because it establishes this kind of—you know, so much of the book is about authority. About authority, and the lack of authority, and what authority is, and who has it, and what you do with it. And that sentence is just pure authority. Pure narrative authority. ‘Call me Ishmael.' Bingo. It's like, ‘Okay, well, we're going to call you Ishmael.'” This week on the podcast, the Quarterly's editor-at-large Francine Prose returns for an in-depth conversation with Donovan Hohn about Moby Dick's first chapter, “Loomings.” They consider the meanings of the verb to loom, whether Ishmael is likeable or funny, whether the American sermon influenced Melville's oratorical prose, why the antebellum religious press condemned the novel, and what the best medicine might be for “the universal thump.” Earlier episodes in this series: Episode 7 with Daniel Mendelsohn and Episode 8 with Wyatt Mason.

On this week's episode, Nathan and Riley – the former of whom has spent the past several days near a beach and the latter of whom just returned from a boating excursion – are joined by Chris “Peg Leg” Person to discuss boats, boating, and a flotilla of related matters. First we talk about Riley's recent voyage, which involved reading Moby Dick as quickly as possible while on a boat. Why? Riley enjoys punishing himself, I guess. Then Riley regales us with tales of the time he lived on a boat during his youth, up to and including his convoluted waste disposal process. After that, we move on to a boat-related news item at the opposite end of the wealth spectrum: Gabe Newell, billionaire co-founder of Valve, recently purchased a yacht company. Why are rich people so obsessed with big boats? Listen to find out. Lastly, we list the best boats in video games, including the GOAT boat.

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.

“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.

“In a famous episode, he says his name is Nobody, which in a way is obviously a lie,” says writer, scholar, and translator Daniel Mendelsohn in this episode of The World in Time. “But in another way is sort of true because he has become a nobody, right? And another way to describe the sort of narrative arc of The Odyssey is: he has to go from being a nobody and reclaim his identity and be a somebody again. So, the question of the nature of identity—you know, he's been changed by twenty years of aging, by trauma, by terrible suffering, and yet when he gets home, he has to ‘prove,' quote-unquote, that he is the same person who left. And that, I think, raises one of the most fascinating questions of the epic—and this speaks to something we know about from our own lives—which is: is there a part of you that remains the same despite the changes that we undergo in life? And that's the sort of paradox, I think, that's at the center of the poem. Everybody changes in twenty years, and yet you feel the same in many ways. The Odyssey delves into these very profound questions.” This week's episode of The World in Time is the first in a series of episodes about The Sea (Summer 2013). Donovan Hohn speaks with Daniel Mendelsohn about his new translation of The Odyssey, traveling back to antiquity in search of the origins of the Homeric epic. Then, in archival audio from 2013, editorial board member Aidan Flax-Clark interviews Lewis H. Lapham about his childhood reading of Moby-Dick, about Lapham's greenhorn voyages, and about a doomed shipwreck hunt in the early 1960s that Lapham wrote about for The Saturday Evening Post.

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.

¡Como me gusta este podcast! ¡Como me gustan estos coches! Excesivos, brutales… sencillamente son, para mí, los coches de competición en circuito más espectaculares de la historia. Fruto de un reglamento poco restrictivo… no como los de ahora… Si conoces los “Silueta” te va a interesar mucho este video, pero si nos los conoces… ¡te va a interesar más! Te lo prometo. Lo primero que hay que hacer, porque quizás alguno no lo sepa, es responder a esta pregunta: ¿Qué es un coche “silueta”? Lo primero que hay que decir es que los “silueta” son coches del entonces llamado Grupo 5, pero no todos los grupo 5 son coches de la categoría “silueta”. Los Grupo 5 nacieron en 1966 e inicialmente eran coches nacidos para la competición. Te pongo algunos ejemplos: Alfa Romeo TT33TT/12, Alpine Renault A442, Ford GT40, Ferrari 512 M/S, Matra Simca MS670 o Porsche 917 por citar unos ejemplos… coches preciosos y que, seguro, merecen otro video para ellos. Pero en 1976 y hasta 1982, época de mi adolescencia y juventud, nace la cuarta y última generación del Grupo 5 y estos son los “silueta”. La FIA creó esta categoría para coches derivados de la calle, pero ampliamente, yo diría que muy ampliamente, modificados. La federación exigía que el capó, parabrisas, puertas completas y techo fueran los mismos que en el coche original. Pero lo demás, incluidos los pasos de rueda y la parte posterior era libre. El motor debía contar con el bloque motor original y en la posición original. Es decir, no podías hacer un 911 con motor delantero, pero sí ponerlo más bajo o más adelantado y prepararlo a fondo, incluso aumentando la cilindrada o añadiendo “turbos” a placer siempre que el bloque fuese original. Lo mismo sucedía con la suspensión, debía ser de igual sistema, pero de diseño y componentes libres. Había exigencias en cuanto a normas de seguridad, pesos mínimos y dimensiones, pero en general las normas eran muy “laxas” y ello dio lugar a verdaderos monstruos de la competición… ¿Qué no te lo crees? Vamos a ver unos cuantos… 1. BMW 3.0 CSL (1972). Uno de los primeros trabajos del departamento M fue la fabricación de un coupé de la serie E9 para ser preparado para competición. 2. Lancia Stratos Turbo (1976). Terminada su etapa en los Rallyes el Stratos tuvo una segunda oportunidad en los circuitos de la mano del reglamento de los silueta… pero no tan exitosa. 3. Chevrolet Corvette Greenwood (1976). He elegido de este modelo la versión denominada “Spirit of Le Mans 1976”. Este coche, como un Ferrari que veremos más adelante, participaba dentro de una categoría de la norteamericana IMSA. 4. Porsche 911-935 (1976). Uno de los “silueta” por excelencia. Y en el caso concreto del 911-935 de nominado “Moby Dick” probablemente el más brutal de todos y al que dedicamos un video completo titulado “Moby Dick: el Porsche Turbo más brutal” que te animo a que lo veas. 5. BMW 320i Turbo (1977). El CSL era demasiado grande y demasiado antiguo así que BMW pensó en un más manejable serie 3, pero eso sí, con turbo y una potencia que según algunas fuentes llegaron a los 900 CV… 6. Ferrari 512 BB LM (1977). Este coche corrió Le Mans encuadrado en la categoría norteamericana IMSA… que fue prohibida en esta prueba en 1983. 7. Toyota Celica LB Turbo (1977). El apoyo de Toyota Alemania al preparador, muy prestigioso, Schnitzer, hizo posible que naciese este modelo que declaraba 560 CV para un peso claramente por debajo de los 900 kg. 8. Ford Capri Turbo Zakspeed (1978). Ford quiso competir en la categoría “hasta 2 litros” del Grupo 5 “siluetas” y para ello encargó al prestigiosos preparados Zakspeed un motor de 1.4 litros para montar en un espectacular y aerodinámico Ford Capri. 9. Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo (1979). Lancia tenía una base excelente, como era el coupé Montecarlo con dos plazas y motor central, para crear un silueta destinada al Grupo 5 de la FIA. 10. Mazda RX-7 252i (1979). El grupo 5 “Silueta” tuvo continuidad en Japón una vez acabada su vida en Europa, en el Campeonado del Mundo FIA. Y hubo muchos coches japoneses preparados bajo este reglamento. Conclusión. Siempre digo lo mismo: Los reglamentos actuales son tan estrictos y tan detallados que dejan poco a la imaginación… antes no era así y eso producía coches como estos, como los Grupo B, como los prototipos y Formula 1 de los años 70 y 80.

Moby Dick by Herman Melville is Tom's pick for this episode, and let's just say… the whale wasn't the only one dragging. Tony hadn't read it since his English Lit days and didn't make it to the end this time, while Tom powered through on deadline. The result? Probably not our most polished review, but a fun and honest one nonetheless. Join us as we harpoon what we can from this literary leviathan.TTYpodcast.comThumbingthroughyesterday.com

In this episode of Challenge Accepted, Thomas and Frank celebrate the 50th anniversary of Steven Spielberg's iconic film Jaws. They revisit the movie that redefined the summer blockbuster, breaking down everything from unforgettable performances to behind-the-scenes innovations. The conversation explores the film's themes of fear, fatherhood, trauma, and nature vs. man, while also highlighting Spielberg's genius in turning technical failures into cinematic gold. Plus, a compelling fan theory about Chief Brody adds a whole new layer to the film.

I was waiting for my turn.” “The shark isn't the villain. It's nature doing what it does. The villain is fear and denial.” “It's not about killing the shark. It's about what Brody's trying to kill inside himself.” Call to Action: Enjoying the show?

The Forbidden Worlds Film Festival reviews conclude with 1962's Japanese Moby Dick adaptation; The Whale God Mike & Spider-Dan delve into the 1962 kaiju/Moby Dick movie The Whale God, which Mike was hugely looking forward to watching but it has some controversial topics within – although it's not gratuitous, note the sexual assault trigger warning. Neither Mike or Dan had seen or heard of this movie before, due to its non-existent UK release, so they were excited to watch it on an IMAX screen at Forbidden Worlds – they review the movie in-depth, talking about the plot, dialogue and kaiju for the first 30 minutes, then give the trigger warning and discuss the sexual assault scenes and the plot implications & character reactions that follow. Although this is the last review, Mike & Dan still have some interviews to release, so keep an eye out for those before GCC returns to the more regular interview-style pods!

Award-winning journalist and bestselling author Rachel Slade spoke to me about majoring in “New York,” killing her darlings, and the future of manufacturing in her latest book MAKING IT IN AMERICA. Rachel Slade is an award-winning journalist and acclaimed author of Into the Raging Sea, a national bestseller, New York Times Notable Book, and winner of the Maine Literary Award for nonfiction. Her latest work of nonfiction is Making It in America: The Almost Impossible Quest to Manufacture in the U.S.A. (And How It Got That Way). It is described as “a deeply personal and eye-opening journey into the fight to bring ethical manufacturing back to the U.S.” A Publishers Weekly Top 10 Pick in Business and Economics, The Washington Post called it “Persuasively argue[d] . . . Slade's book gives a granular sense of just how hard it is for business owners, particularly those in manufacturing, to do the right thing by their workers in America today.” Rachel also spent a decade in the city magazine trenches at Boston—first as the design editor, ultimately as executive editor. Her work has appeared in publications including The New York Times, The Boston Globe, and Boston magazine.

What does a Shire full of hobbits in Middle-Earth, a county full of farmers in Kentucky, and a wardrobe full of a lion have in common? For Russell Moore and singer/songwriter/author Andrew Peterson, they were all a way to find home.    In this episode—recorded inside Peterson's book-lined Chapter House in Nashville, right down the road from Moore—the two talk about the authors who, by God's grace, helped hold their faith together when it could have come apart. From the wisdom of Wendell Berry to the imagination of C.S. Lewis to the honesty of Frederick Buechner, these authors gave a clarity that helped these two keep the faith.    This isn't just a literary conversation. It's about how God uses stories, sentences, and sometimes even sword-wielding mice to reach people in moments of doubt, disillusionment, or despair. Along the way, they talk about what it means to read widely, to hold onto wonder, and to be the kind of Christian who can still be surprised by joy.   They also somehow end up talking about Moby Dick, Dungeons & Dragons, and how ChatGPT was wrong and right about what books each of them would take to a desert island.    Books and authors mentioned in this episode include: Jayber Crow by Wendell Berry A Room Called Remember and Telling Secrets by Frederick Buechner The Chronicles of Narnia, Till We Have Faces, Mere Christianity, and more by C.S. Lewis Godric by Frederick Buechner David Copperfield by Charles Dickens Four Quartets by T.S. Eliot Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton The Yearling by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings A Long Obedience in the Same Direction by Eugene Peterson Moby Dick by Herman Melville Reading Genesis by Marilynne Robinson The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction by Alan Jacobs And selections from Andrew's own works: Adorning the Dark, The God of the Garden, and The Wingfeather Saga Whether you're deep in faith, on the brink of losing it, or just looking for something beautiful to read, this conversation will remind you why the right book at the right moment can do more than explain—it can point to new life.

For several decades, Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) was perhaps the most prominent writer and intellectual in America. As an advocate of personal freedom living in Massachusetts, surrounded by passionate abolitionists, one might expect that his positions regarding slavery would be obvious and uncomplicated. And yet, Emerson struggled with the issue - not whether it was wrong (he was opposed to it), but the extent to which it obliged him or others to take action, and if so, how best to act in a way consistent with his philosophical principles. In this episode, Jacke talks to author Kenneth Sacks (Emerson's Civil Wars: Spirit in Society in the Age of Abolition) about what Emerson's wavering between self-reliance and collective action can tell us about who he was as a thinker and person - and whether his journey has lessons for the rest of us. PLUS Victoria Namkung (An Immortal Book: Selected Writings by Sui Sin Far) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read. AND ALSO Jacke jumps into the belly of the clickbait whale, following the headline "We Had Sex Inside Moby-Dick!" to learn about Japan's love hotels and their connection(?) to the Herman Melville classic.
