Podcasts about my first book

Jeremy Puglisi returns for his seventh appearance on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast—and it's a powerful one. What began as a pop-up camper and a couple of sleep-deprived twins has become a movement, a media company, and a meaningful legacy. In this episode, Jeremy and host Ginny Yurich reflect on what it really means to invest in your children—not with money, but with time, presence, and outdoor adventures. Jeremy shares the long-term fruit of raising kids immersed in nature, adventure, and unpredictability—and how those early camping trips laid the foundation for his boys' confidence and competence today. They talk family road trips, leaving stable careers to follow a passion, the birth of Camp Griddlemore (a cooking show you'll actually use), and the heart behind Jeremy's latest book series for kids. This episode is an invitation to go all-in—not because it's easy, but because it's worth it. Camping isn't just a weekend escape; it's a parenting philosophy. And as Jeremy wisely says, “Investing is not always easy—but it's very wise.”

In an age long past, death was not a mystery, for a palm tree once grew upon the earth that served as a path between life and afterlife. Genre: Mythology   Excerpt: He came by sea in ships laden with his forces… By day he attacked, and by night he attacked. They knew that they must destroy him. And they knew that they could not destroy him, for he was now too powerful.   What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode?Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. In an earlier story, I wrote of a grieving young man who sought to retrieve his mother from the isle where the souls of those who have died go, just before they pass through the doorway into the afterlife: “The Isle of Mist and Gloom.”   MERCH!Interested in merch, like mugs and notebooks, featuring my artwork?

A charlatan pretending to be a healer wins the king's favor, but seems mostly harmless, until the day the king collapses and cannot be roused. Genre: Science Fiction, Mystery, Mythology   Excerpt: The royal physician, Galena by name, examined the festering bruise just below the king's ribcage. The king lay in a sleeping stupor. A state he had been in for three days, and yet it was only now, and only by order of the queen that the royal physician was allowed to examine her king. Galena peered down at the bruise, around the margins of which there appeared an oozing of bright purple fluid.   What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode? Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. This one was inspired by a previous story I'd written about old-timey medical practices. That episode is called “The Remedy Men.” It was also inspired by a section I read in the “Sawbones” book about the four humors of the body. I bought the book after listening to the “Sawbones” podcast, in which the hosts—one of whom is a doctor—explore medical theories, beliefs, and practices throughout the ages of human existence.  Next week's episode is inspired by “The Amber God,” and “spoils” what happens in that episode.
