In this lively episode of Reading With Your Kids, host Jed Doherty welcomes two fantastic children's authors: Dan Gutman and Kimberly Tso. First up, Dan Gutman returns to the show to chat about his brand-new middle grade novel, The Picasso Curse. Dan shares the fascinating real-life history behind the book—did you know Pablo Picasso was once a suspect in the theft of the Mona Lisa? Dan reveals how this “what if” moment inspired his story about a modern-day kid who stumbles upon a lost Picasso sketch at a flea market, only to discover that sudden fame and fortune come with unexpected challenges. The conversation dives into themes like decision anxiety, the pressures of growing up today, and the importance of encouraging kids to dream big and talk about their aspirations. Next, Jed sits down with Kimberly Tso, author of the delightful new picture book Tic Tac Toe Chicken. Kimberly's story is inspired by a real chicken in New York City's Chinatown that was trained to play tic-tac-toe against visitors! She discusses how her childhood memories and a desire to see the world through a child's eyes shaped the book, which follows a young girl named Beatrice as she questions the ethics of the chicken's life and ultimately helps rescue it. Kimberly and Jed explore the unique culture of Chinatown, the power of empathy, and the value of listening to children's perspectives. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or young reader, this episode is packed with inspiration, laughter, and thoughtful insights into the creative process behind two unique children's books. Don't forget to check out The Picasso Curse and Tic Tac Toe Chicken at your local bookstore or library, and keep the conversation going with your kids about art, dreams, and seeing the world in new ways!

SHOW NOTES: •Do you know people who are loquacious, verbose, prolix? •Ask a "yes or no" question and they respond with opinions, history, and self-therapy. •Have you been to the Jersey Shore? Well, I did go once, as a child, but my parents really couldn't afford the vacation, and then when they could, they preferred Cape Cod. I haven't taken my children because my spouse thinks that "Jaws" was a documentary. •Why so much talk? -Articulating cognitive processes -Buying time -Believing it adds credibility and esteem -Just a bigmouth who loves to hear him/herself talk •Tell people what they need to know, not everything that you know. •Assume intelligent people will ask you questions if needed. •Don't be afraid to stop people from rambling: -What's your point? -What's your question? •Verbosity attempts to hide the point: politicians do it and it probably helped cost Kamala Harris the election. •It dilutes your real power, like planting the Mona Lisa in the midst of a much larger painting. •People forget the major points because they are drowned in minor points. She talked at length about needing ice cream, but I don't remember what flavors she said to avoid at all costs. •Lincoln's Gettysburg Address took about 2.5 minutes to deliver. Can you recall who else spoke that day for hours? •The US Constitution is a couple of pages. The rules of golf are over 600. Is it really easier to run the most successful and powerful democracy in history than to hit a ball with a stick?

Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! Pitchfork Review – Joe Dolce: Shaddap You Face Score: 8.7 (Best New Meme)Joe Dolce's Shaddap You Face is the kind of song that makes you question not only the nature of music, but the nature of civilisation itself. In 1980, while the rest of the world was contemplating the looming nuclear winter, Joe Dolce decided to weaponise a mandolin and a catchphrase to wage war on taste.Dolce's delivery—equal parts comedy uncle, regional theatre understudy, and man who's just been told “the karaoke machine's broken, can you sing it a cappella?”—is the song's driving force. The accordion wheezes like a pensioner after walking up three steps, while the rhythm plods along with all the swagger of a Fiat Panda in second gear. It's not music you dance to so much as music you gesticulate wildly to, preferably while wearing a checked tablecloth as a cape.Lyrically, it's a work of minimalist genius. Dolce doesn't waste time with metaphors or subtext—every line is a conversation between him, his mama, and an imagined chorus of Australian radio listeners in 1981 who were too polite to turn it off. The repeated hook, “What's-a matter you?” isn't just a question—it's an existential howl, a postmodern critique of the immigrant experience, or maybe just a man yelling at a cloud.When it was released, Shaddap You Face dethroned John Lennon's Woman on the UK charts. Yes, Joe Dolce beat a Beatle. That's like if Subway released a tuna melt that outsold the Mona Lisa. It's a reminder that sometimes, the masses don't want enlightenment—they want an accordion, a bad accent, and a chorus that gets funnier the more you sing it.In the end, Shaddap You Face is not a song you listen to because you want to—it's a song you listen to because it will find you. In the supermarket. In a taxi. In your brain at 3am. And you will sing along, because resistance is futile.Verdict: A masterpiece of cultural persistence. Like herpes, but with a mandolin.DUBBY DUBBY is declaring WAR on big Energy! Use the promo code "1001songs" at checkout for 10% off!

This week's *Ooooh They Funny* was a rollercoaster of rumor, reflection, and relatable everyday scenarios. The hosts opened with the wild speculation that a hostile alien force might arrive by November, debating whether the government would ever actually tell us, why there's no panic if it's true, and what those aliens might really want — before playing a tongue‑in‑cheek “Invade or Save” game where they decided whether MrBeast's channel, national parks, the Mona Lisa, a Chick‑fil‑A drive‑thru, tipping culture, the ISS, kindergarten nap time, AT&T Stadium, Las Vegas, and server farms full of AI were worth defending. From there, they recapped the biggest surprises they'd discovered traveling abroad — customs, laws, food, and manners that flipped their assumptions on their head — and swapped stories about the subtle “green flags” that tell you a restaurant, mechanic, neighborhood, or business has its act together. They wrapped by questioning whether ghosting ever has a valid justification, weighing when cutting off contact is petty, protective, or simply easier than honest communication in the era of dating apps, and whether being ghosted is worse than hearing a brutal truth.
Jeden Tag lächelte sie. Vor unzähligen Museumsbesuchern im Pariser Louvre. Vincenzo Peruggia fand dieses Lächeln traurig: "La Gioconda" gehörte seiner Meinung nach zurück in ihre Heimat. Nach eingehender Planung stahl er das wohl berühmteste Gemälde der Welt und versteckte die Mona Lisa zwei Jahre lang bei sich.

By Kevin Call - When we see the Mona Lisa, what image do we think of? What about George Washington? How about Jesus Christ? They say a picture is worth a 1000 words. With Jesus Christ, do we see the Lamb of God or the Lion of the tribe of Judea? Watch as we cover the vision of Christ in the Throne Room of God.

Leonardo da Vinci? More like Leonardo da Fist Me.We've all heard of the man behind the Mona Lisa. But did you know he was also one of Florence's sodomitical sweethearts?In this episode, we pull back the vajazzled curtain on Leonardo da Vinci to reveal a homo neither tormented nor repressed, suffering dramatically for his art, but a messy, charismatic, and brilliant dilettante obsessed with the world.More than anything, Leonardo cared about curiosity. He was fascinated more by the world than his paychecks, which got him into trouble more often than his penchant for very handsome twinks – ahem, sorry, apprentices.*Join Bash and Renaissance historian Catherine Fletcher as they answer all the big questions:Was Leonardo gay? Does it matter? Did it affect his fantastically innovative artwork? Did he think outside the box? And whose box did he eat?We'll also give you a taste of what it was like to be horny, humping Leo in 1470s Florence, dashing across the Ponte Vecchio from paint job to blow job in an Italian minute (aka seventeen hours).We'll cover:Leonardo's arrest at age 24 for...sodomyHow the city responded to its "epidemic" of...sodomyLeonardo's lifelong entanglement with his apprentice/lover/twink-goblin, SalaiThe saga of Michelangelo vs. Leonardo, who were briefly Florence's duelling divas of the dayWhy Leonardo's refusal to care — about his sexuality or finishing any of his damn paintings — is actually the gayest and most important thing about himIf you've ever wanted a crash course in the gayest corners of the Italian Renaissance — or just an excuse to say “I heard you're into the Florentine vice” out loud — this is the episode for you.
The Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci is widely looked upon as the most famous painting in the world.By some historical estimates, the Mona Lisa took as many as 16 years to finish! Capturing Mona Lisa's famous smile on a poplar plank was no hack job; Leonardo accepted a commission for the work in the year 1503, and completed his masterpiece supposedly around the time of his death in 1519. Clearly, this level of artistic achievement takes time.When you hear the word “masterpiece,” what do you think of? A famous painting? A beautiful building, maybe? Your child's latest artwork?What about a giant sequoia tree? A symphony? A pink flamingo? The intricate, miraculous design of the human heart?Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”Before you were even born, God knew you, and He had a plan for your life. He created you for a purpose, and He considers you one of his personal works of art. You are a living, breathing miracle capable of wonderful things—God's own masterpiece.Let's pray.God, we thank you and praise you that in all of creation, you have chosen to make us in your image, and to fashion us as a masterpiece—a work of art designed with care. Help us to be worthy of your effort. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Este verano, uno de los debates más sonados ha sido el de la restauración de la Macarena. No, no es lo mismo retocar la imagen de una virgen que, por ejemplo, un cuadro de Velázquez: los criterios son distintos. Pero cuando estas obras de arte sacro no están protegidas por la ley, las decisiones no siempre recaen en expertos en patrimonio, sino en hermandades, párrocos o devotos. Y, al final, lo que algunos entienden como una mejora puede ser visto por otros como una metedura de pata.

ITALY: MONA LISA BACKGROUND. LORENZO FIORI 1890 BOBBIO
PREVIEW: MONA LISA: Colleague Lorenzo Fiori presents the profile of the medieval village of Bobbio that Leonardo da Vinci used for the Mona Lisa. More to come. 1931 CYPRUS
Before the Mona Lisa became one of the most famous and beloved paintings in the world, it sat in obscurity for hundreds of years away from the public eye. During that time, no one would have considered it the timeless, classic masterpiece that it is today. How did that change? Who decides what is worthy of the title “classic” and is it possible to have classics in our modern age? Rochelle Gurstein is an intellectual historian, critic, and fellow at the New York Institute for the Humanities. Her latest book, Written in Water: The Ephemeral Life of the Classic in Art explores what it means for something to be labeled “classic” and how the notion of the classics has evolved over centuries. Rochelle and Greg discuss the historical fluidity of aestheticism and taste, the shifting perception of iconic artworks, and unearth the forgotten contributions of critics and artists who shaped our understanding of what it means for art to transcend time. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Is the world being threatened by new art?42:07: One of the things that I try to trace in the book is this idea that one's world is being threatened by new art, and the sense that it's not the importance—by the 19th century and the 20th century—of what is at stake. It's not just that there is another work of art in the world, or a style that has entered the world. Instead, it is that a whole sensibility, taste, worldview is under attack.What is the strongest foundation for a classic?52:39: The strongest foundation for a classic is when artists keep a work alive in their own practice. So that, as long as people could still see the Venus de' Medici in the works of all the artists who took it as the exemplar, they would continue to love it because they were all part of a continuum—an aesthetic continuum, a moral continuum—that, in the 20th century and 21st century, became harder and harder to maintain, because contemporary art shifted so dramatically every 10, 20 years—every other year these days. The way that we could keep art alive from the past is: the more we know about what other people have said about it—the people who have loved it, or the people who have not loved it.What really keeps art alive57:00: The practice of art itself—what artists are doing, not what collectors or museums and all the rest are doing, which is, of course, important. But I do not think that that is the most important thing. I think the artist's practice and what they are keeping alive. And then knowing enough, caring enough about the art of the past, to try to understand what their aims were, and knowing it changed over time, and that these works were loved or not loved at different moments of time—and why?Show Links:Recommended Resources:RaphaelVenus de' MediciJoshua ReynoldsWilliam HazlittJohn RuskinStudies in the History of the Renaissance by Walter PaterGiovanni MorelliRoger FryGuest Profile:Fellow Profile at New York Institute for the Humanities Professional WebsiteGuest Work:Written in Water: The Ephemeral Life of the Classic in ArtThe Repeal of Reticence: America's Cultural and Legal Struggles over Free Speech, Obscenity, Sexual Liberation, and Modern Art
Skip the Mona Lisa when you visit Paris. Don't tour the Coliseum in Rome. Walk, don't hurry. Chris Arnade speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about a different way to travel. Listen as Arnade shares what he learned from Istanbul's small community mosques and how Avignon's Congolese-neighborhood cathedrals provided moving moments of spirituality. He also explains why Japan and Vietnam's emphasis on community lends itself to more happiness than America's "me-focused" approach, and what gear he carries--and leaves behind--for his extremely long walks through the world. Finally, he offers suggestions for choosing places to eat on the road that can elevate meals into meaningful experiences. This is a thoughtful conversational journey about veering off the beaten path to find home in surprising places.
This week- Nick and Roy introduce two new topics- useless words and useless art. Also, was Mona Lisa plucked or not? Is jentacular part of a complete breakfast? Listen, laugh, and learn with Nick & Roy. Brought to you by Tom's Place in Kensington Market in Toronto, Check out Tom's extended birthday sale.

We all do it - put things off, tell ourselves we'll start tomorrow, and somehow still miss the deadline. But chronic procrastination isn't just a bad habit; it's self-sabotaging behavior that can derail our goals, relationships, and even our health. Psychologist Dr. Joseph Ferrari, a leading expert on procrastination, breaks down the emotional roots of procrastination, debunks the myth that we “work best under pressure,” and offers science-backed strategies for change. Plus - meet one of history's most legendary procrastinators: Leonardo da Vinci. Find out how his epic delays shaped the Mona Lisa, and why some believe he never truly finished it.
