Fray Antonio de Sedella fue un capuchino que, desde Nueva Orleans, algunos autores sostienen que dirigió una red de espionaje para la Corona de España. Durante décadas recopiló informes, cifró mensajes y suministró inteligencia estratégica sobre movimientos británicos. Sus acciones, junto a las de Juan de Miralles, facilitaron la intervención española en la guerra de independencia de EE. UU. Sedella operó en el sigilo absoluto; murió en 1829 sin que muchos supieran de su papel real. Hoy se le reconoce como un artífice clandestino que, con su fe y su astucia, dejó huella en la historia de América. Y descubre más historias curiosas en el canal National Geographic y en Disney +.

What is the secret to 15 years of trust and slow, ethical work inside the Hutterite communities? Canadian photographer Tim Smith shows us exactly how he built the deep, long-term relationships that define his career.

His images have appeared in major magazines, including National Geographic, and his work has been exhibited in many countries to date. In this warm and honest talk, we dive into the challenges of that commitment. Tim opens up about why he now questions the pressure of the "all-in" photojournalism lifestyle and the essential need to prioritize family life. Hear about his wonderful crazy new project “Chaff”, the secret joy of eating supper in a combine during harvest, listen to some wonderful stories about the amazing Hutterite communities, where we talk about emotional moments or have a good laugh too of course.

From Apple News In Conversation: Pulitzer Prize–winning photojournalist Lynsey Addario has spent the past two decades on the front lines of many of the world’s defining conflicts and humanitarian crises — from Iraq and Afghanistan to the Arab Spring, the Libyan civil war, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. A new documentary from National Geographic, Love+War, explores not only her extraordinary career in conflict zones but also her life at home in London with her husband and their two young sons. Addario sat down with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu to talk about her high-risk work, motherhood, and what the film reveals about the complexity of both.

Những cây cầu quận Madison : 30 năm yêu chậm, sống chậm

Ra đời 30 năm trước, Những cây cầu quận Madison (The Bridges of Madison County, 1995) để lại dấu ấn khó phai về chuyện tình ngắn ngủi giữa bà nội trợ Francesca và nhiếp ảnh gia Robert. Không gian phim quê mùa, tiết tấu chậm rãi nhưng bùng nổ cảm xúc nhờ màn hóa thân xuất sắc của minh tinh Meryl Streep và bàn tay đạo diễn Clint Eastwood. Tóm tắt truyện phim Bộ phim chuyển thể từ tiểu thuyết cùng tên (có tựa đề khác là Tình yêu giữa trắng và đen) của nhà văn Mỹ Robert James Waller phát hành năm 1992. Câu chuyện mở ra chuyện tình lãng mạn của Francesca, bà nội trợ Mỹ gốc Ý sống tại miền quê Iowa những năm 1960. Bà đem lòng yêu Robert, một nhiếp ảnh gia tạp chí danh tiếng National Geographic. Robert tình cờ ghé thăm khu vực để sáng tác ấn phẩm ảnh có những cây cầu gỗ mái che tại địa hạt Madison. Chuyện tình chỉ kéo dài bốn ngày nhưng ám ảnh Francesca suốt cả cuộc đời cho đến khi bà qua đời. Tiểu thuyết được coi là một trong những tác phẩm thành công nhất thế kỷ 20 ngang ngửa với Chuyện tình (Eric Segal, năm 1970) với sức tiêu thụ 50 triệu ấn bản toàn cầu. Giới phê bình nhận xét tiểu thuyết này lãng mạn hóa một chuyện tình có thực, tuy nhiên, nhân vật trong tiểu thuyết hoàn toàn hư cấu. Những lựa chọn then chốt Hollywood không thể đứng yên trước sức hút nam châm của tiểu thuyết của Robert James nhằm chế biến thành tác phẩm màn bạc triệu đô. Đáng chú ý, Clint Eastwood đóng ba vai trò chủ đạo: nhà sản xuất, đạo diễn khiêm diễn viên chính cho bộ phim. Clint Eastwood gây bất ngờ nhất khi xoay mình sang thể loại phim không phải thế mạnh vốn có. Ông từng giành giải Oscar cho phim cao bồi Unforgiven (Không dung thứ) năm 1993. Điểm mấu chốt thứ hai, biên kịch Richard LaGraveese cũng là người chắp bút kịch bản cho hàng loạt phim tình cảm ăn khách như The mirror has two faces (Chiếc gương hai mặt), P.S I love you (Tái bút anh yêu em), Paris, Je t'aime (Paris tôi yêu em). Thứ ba, gương mặt “chọn mặt gửi vàng” chính là siêu sao Meryl Streep, từng đoạt 2 giải Oscar (tính tại thời điểm bộ phim ra mắt). Meryl không ngại bất cứ thử thách vai diễn khó khăn nào, cho dù vai diễn Francesca đòi hỏi sự giằng xé nội tâm dữ dội. Ngân sách phim rất khiêm tốn (chỉ 22 triệu đô), ba quyết định then chốt (đạo diễn, biên kịch, diễn viên chính) kèm theo tiếng vang của tiểu thuyết đã giúp nhà sản xuất gặt hái thành công thương mại 182 triệu đôla. Meryl Streep được đề cử Oscar cho Nữ diễn viên chính xuất sắc nhất. Bí mật chôn vùi hơn ba thập kỷ Tiết tấu phim rất chậm rãi như hành trình khám phá cuốn hồi ký Francesca ngược thời gian. Mở màn ở thực tại những năm 1990, khi hai người con, Michael và Carolyn đoàn tụ ngôi nhà vùng nông thôn Iowa sau khi bà mẹ Francesca qua đời. Họ thực sự sốc khi biết rằng bà mẹ yêu cầu hỏa táng và rắc tro từ trên cây cầu gỗ Roseman, chứ không phải chôn cạnh người cha Richard quá cố của họ. Bí mật sáng tỏ khi họ khám phá chiếc hộp bí ẩn gồm sổ tay, ảnh chụp Francesca tại cây cầu gỗ và những lá thư của người đàn ông xa lạ có tên Robert Kincaid. Sau đó, phim lội ngược dòng thời gian về năm 1965 với chuyện tình 4 ngày của Francesca với người đàn ông Robert khi cả chồng con đi vắng xa nhà. Cuốn hồi ký mô tả cuộc tình sâu đậm giữa Francesca và Robert, dường như họ muốn bỏ trốn cùng nhau. Một mặt, bà băn khoăn về mối quan hệ lâu dài giữa bà và Robert. Mặt khác, Francesca cảm thấy trách nhiệm với cuộc hôn nhân thiếu cảm xúc, hối tiếc nếu bỏ lại những đứa con vị thành niên và người chồng chung thủy. Sau khi Richard qua đời, Francesca tìm cách liên lạc với Robert nhưng chỉ biết ông không còn làm ở tạp chí National Geographic. Ba năm sau khi chồng bà mất, Robert cũng qua đời và để lại hết kỷ vật cho bà, tro của ông rải xuống sông trên cây cầu Roseman. Câu chuyện cảm động, đầy tính nhân văn, lay động trái tim Michael và Carolyn. Họ thực hiện đúng lời nguyện ước của bà mẹ trên cây cầu nảy nở tình yêu giữa Francesca và Robert. Điểm nhấn cảm xúc và cao trào Đạo diễn Clint Eastwood chọn phong cách cổ điển trong cách kể chuyện và kết thúc. Ông phơi bày được sự khác biệt giữa chồng Richard và người tình Robert chỉ nhờ không khí trên bàn ăn. Một người hầu như chỉ tập trung ăn và một người tìm cách trò chuyện với Francesca. Nhờ vậy, chuyện tình của họ trở nên sống động và thuyết phục nhờ diễn xuất tinh tế của Meryl Streep. Phổ diễn xuất của bà chuyển tải sắc nét của tâm trạng đang yêu và khoảnh khắc xao động gặp lại người tình Robert dưới cơn mưa. Ít người biết rằng Meryl Streep không phải lựa chọn đầu tiên cho vai này. Hai minh tinh người Pháp và Ý, Catherine Deneuve và Isabelle Rosellini từng đến thử vai, cũng được nhà sản xuất ưng ý. Tuy nhiên, Clint Eastwood kiên định mời bằng được Meryl Streep cho vai diễn linh hồn của bộ phim. Tài năng của Meryl Streep không phụ niềm tin của đạo diễn. Ấn tượng nhất phim là trường đoạn Francesca ngồi trên xe trong cơn mưa ngắm Robert cố ý treo sợi dây chuyền bạc như lời cầu hôn. Cái tài của đạo diễn đẩy nhân vật vào sự lựa chọn khắc nghiệt nhất: Bỏ đi hay ở lại ? Đôi tay bà run rẩy muốn mở cửa xe bỏ trốn, nhưng cảm xúc trào dâng khiến bà bật khóc. Lý trí và cảm xúc trong Francesca đạt tới điểm bùng nổ dữ dội. Quyết định ở lại cùng chồng con không phải lựa chọn dễ dàng nhưng đầy tính nhân văn. Bà chọn cái chết hỏa táng và rắc tro cùng với người tình. Đó là câu trả lời muộn màng cho lời cầu hôn của nhiếp ảnh gia Robert. But the closer Robert gets, the clearer he can see that she is crying. And he stops. Without any words, he realizes what taking her with him would mean. With just a glance, he sacrifices her. With their eyes locked in the middle of Main Street - in front of the whole town - they smile and say goodbye. For a moment, I didn't know where I was. And for a split second, the thought crossed my mind that he really didn't want me - that it was easy to walk away. Khi Robert tiến lại gần hơn, anh càng thấy rõ hơn cô đang khóc và anh dừng lại. Với cái nhìn đó, anh đã hy sinh cô ấy. Ánh mắt họ khóa chặt lấy nhau trên giữa con phố, nơi họ mỉm cười và chào tạm biệt. (Francesca tự sự): Thực tại, tôi không thể biết mình đang ở đâu. Trong một giây phút ngắn ngủi, ý nghĩ chợt nảy ra trong đầu tôi rằng anh ấy thực sự không muốn tôi. Có thể dễ dàng bỏ đi vậy sao ? Tính khái quát và thực dụng kiểu Mỹ Hôn nhân có thể là nơi chôn vùi cảm xúc nhưng “miền đất hứa” tình cảm phải đối diện với thực tế khắc nghiệt và sự toàn vẹn. Đạo diễn Clint Eastwood khắc họa được cuộc chiến tranh tâm lý phức tạp của Francesca : không có máu đổ, không có tiếng súng nhưng dai dẳng, đeo bám cả cuộc đời. Cụ thể, bà nội trợ vùng Iowa phải lựa chọn giữa tình cảm và lý trí, giữa gia đình và người tình, giữa trách nhiệm và sự nuông chiều bản thân. Bộ phim phản ánh tính cách Mỹ, sự thực dụng kiểu Mỹ khi tường thuật lại một chuyện tình tuổi trung niên. Họ chỉ được phép chọn một lựa chọn duy nhất giữa muôn vàn lựa chọn. Trên tất cả, họ hiểu được điều quan trọng nhất trong cuộc sống tại từng thời điểm. Tuổi đời 30 năm của Những cây cầu quận Madison giúp khán giả yêu chậm, sống chậm để nhận ra triết lý tinh tế mà đạo diễn gửi gắm. (Theo Variety, Wikipedia, Roger Ebert)

Today, Razib talks to Coltan Scrivner, a behavioral scientist, horror entertainment producer, and author, whose work centers on the psychological and evolutionary roots of our fascination with darkness, horror, and true crime. He is affiliated with the Department of Psychology at Arizona State University. Scrivner also serves as the executive director of the Nightmare in the Ozarks Film Festival and founded the Eureka Springs Zombie Crawl. He has been featured in The New York Times, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, NPR, TIME Magazine, National Geographic, Scientific American and Forbes. He is the author of Morbidly Curious: A Scientist Explains Why We Can't Look Away, where he explores how our fascination with horror functions as a survival-oriented, yet deeply human, impulse. Though working in psychology and behavior, Scrivner's original training is in biological the sciences, and Razib first probes him on the possible evolutionary origins of our persistent interest in horror, and why we might actually be attracted to the phenomenon in the first place. Scrivner also explains how the horror genre differs from other narrative forms, in particular, the power imbalance that makes heroic action and tension much more difficult. Horror, in fact, primarily leverages our intuitions about how predator and prey interact, more than a battle between peers. Scriver also discusses the relationship between fear and our dreams, and the various psychological and evolutionary theories for why we might have so many nightmares.

Alan Lowe is joined in this episode of AMSEcast by Dr. Robin Andrews, volcanologist, science journalist, and author of How to Kill an Asteroid. Dr. Andrews explores how modern planetary defense blends cutting-edge detection networks, such as NASA's NEO Surveyor, with active deflection efforts like the DART mission, which successfully shifted an asteroid's orbit. He also delves into theoretical approaches, including gravity tractors and even nuclear options as last-resort strategies. While comets remain a tougher, faster-moving threat, advances in technology continue to make catastrophic impacts increasingly unlikely. Driven by a deep passion for the solar system's tangible wonders, Dr. Andrews continues to write and follow groundbreaking missions like NASA's Europa Clipper.   About Dr. Robin Andrews:  Dr. Robin Andrews is an experimental volcanologist, science journalist, and award-winning author whose work has appeared in Scientific American, National Geographic, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, including front-page stories in the latter two.

As we move into the end of the year, I'm excited to return to our recurring series “What's New in Science” with my co-host Sabine Hossenfelder. In this month's episode, we started by tackling a favorite subject: scientific hype. Sabine kicked things off by dissecting a recent, highly suspect press release claiming a million-qubit quantum computer is on the horizon. I then brought up a National Geographic article claiming that “warp drive is speeding closer to reality” , and we discussed the reasons why it actually isn't, including the need for “negative energy,” that keep it firmly in the realm of science fiction.From there, Sabine steered us into the world of academic accolades, discussing the controversy around last year's Nobel Prize in Physics for work on neural networks and the collaborative nature of science. I then introduced this year's prize, which was awarded for the beautiful and precise experimental work on seemingly macroscopic manifestations of quantum mechanics—specifically, showing a superconducting quantum state can “tunnel” through a barrier.Finally, we turned to cosmic mysteries. Sabine presented a report on search for “Dark Stars,” a theory that the first stars might have been powered by dark matter annihilation , which require some wishful thinking and what I think are not particularly well motivated physics. For full disclosure this is an issue I thought about in a slightly different context almost 40 years ago and have some a priori skepticism about. I closed with a much more plausible bit of exotic physics that may have been observed: new observations of long-lived gamma-ray bursts. A new model suggests these are caused by a black hole that has merged with a star and is consuming it from the inside out. From wild hype to implausible and plausible models to Nobel-winning physics, I hope you enjoy the conversation.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

Recorded October 2nd, 2025. Thinking Aloud, Thinking Together is a new series of live and recorded conversations amplifying voices that have been silenced in Irish cultural life. It gives space to artists, writers and thinkers who offer radical new perspectives on existing narratives. Our first conversation takes the form of a podcast series. Entitled 'In the Half Light: Voices from Black Ireland', this podcast is delivered in partnership with the Museum of Literature Ireland and curated by Dr Phil Mullen (Assistant Professor of Black Studies at Trinity College Dublin and a leading researcher on the historical experiences of 'mixed-race' people growing up in Ireland). Using the audio format, Phil has created an anonymised, open space for 'mixed-race' people who grew up in Irish care institutions to explore the impact of their erasure from institutional abuse history and discourse in Ireland. Through this conversation, she aims to undo that erasure, one voice at a time. Phil will be in conversation with journalist and researcher Caelainn Hogan. The conversation will be chaired by writer Eoin McNamee. This event is organised in partnership with the Trinity Long Room Hub Arts and Humanities Research Institute and Trinity Research in Social Sciences. Speakers Dr Phil Mullen is Assistant Professor of Black Studies and located in the Department of Sociology. She teaches on the Trinity elective which introduces students to the epistemology of Black Studies as an intellectual pursuit. This is an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary field of knowledge that interrogates historical events that have impacted on those who are racialised as Black, while centring the perspectives of Black people in constructing and deconstructing these events. Sheleads a research project to recover the lived experiences and sociological impact of African students who came to Trinity in the early 20th century, which amplifies our understanding of Blackness in pre-Celtic Tiger Ireland. Caelainn Hogan is a writer and journalist from Dublin. Her first book Republic of Shame investigates the ongoing legacy of Ireland's religious-run, state-funded institutions and the shame-industrial complex that incarcerated women and children. She has written for The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, National Geographic, The Guardian, VICE, Harper's, The Washington Post, The Dublin Review and more. Eoin McNamee is a novelist and screenwriter. His nineteen novels include Resurrection Man and the Blue Trilogy. He has written six Young Adult novels including the New York Times bestselling The Navigator, and three thrillers under the John Creed pseudonym. He wrote the screenplay for the film Resurrection Man directed by Marc Evans and I Want You directed by Michael Winterbottom.

A disarmingly personal account of the new science of memory manipulation by one of today's leading pioneers in the fieldAs a graduate student at MIT, Steve Ramirez successfully created false memories in the lab. Now, as a neuroscientist working at the frontiers of brain science, he foresees a future where we can replace our negative memories with positive ones. In How to Change a Memory, Ramirez draws on his own memories--of friendship, family, loss, and recovery--to reveal how memory can be turned on and off like a switch, edited, and even constructed from nothing.A future in which we can change our memories of the past may seem improbable, but in fact, the everyday act of remembering is one of transformation. Intentionally editing memory to improve our lives takes advantage of the brain's natural capacity for change.In How to Change a Memory, Ramirez explores how scientists discovered that memories are fluid--they change over time, can be erased, reactivated, and even falsely implanted in the lab. Reflecting on his own path as a scientist, he examines how memory manipulation shapes our imagination and sense of self. If we can erase a deeply traumatic memory, would it change who we are? And what would that change mean anyway? Throughout, Ramirez carefully considers the ethics of artificially controlling memory, exploring how we might use this tool responsibly--for both personal healing and the greater good.A masterful blend of memoir and cutting-edge science, How to Change a Memory explores how neuroscience has reached a critical juncture, where scientists can see the potential of memory manipulation to help people suffering from the debilitating effects of PTSD, anxiety, Alzheimer's, addiction, and a host of other neurological and behavioral disorders.Steve Ramirez has been featured on CNN, NPR, and the BBC and in leading publications such as The New York Times, National Geographic, Wired, Forbes, The Guardian, The Economist, and Nature. An award-winning neuroscientist who has given TED talks on his groundbreaking work on memory manipulation, he is associate professor of psychological and brain sciences at Boston University.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://wellingtonsquarebooks.com/book/9780691266688

WHY YOU LOVE SCARY MOVIES—AND HOW TO MAKE FEAR WORK FOR YOU—WITH MONICA KASTLE, "THE HORROR QUEEN"

Love University

      Why do we deliberately seek out fear—only to feel more alive afterward?      This week on Love University, we're exploring the psychology of horror with acclaimed supernatural thriller author Monica Kastle, creator of the Cascade Wolves series. Known for suspenseful plots, richly layered characters, and emotionally intelligent writing, Kastle crafts stories that don't just scare you—they awaken something deeper in your mind and heart.     Here's what we uncovered about why fear fascinates us—and how her novels hook into our most primal wiring: Fear is our brain's rehearsal room.     Monica's novels serve as controlled “threat simulators.” When we read scary scenes, the amygdala—the brain's fear center—fires off as if we're in danger. But the rational brain knows we're safe, creating a unique tension loop. That loop, according to National Geographic, helps us process stress more efficiently. Horror fans often show greater emotional regulation and resilience—because they've practiced fear in a safe container.     Kastle's work gives readers that exact laboratory: fear without real harm, emotional risk without real loss. And the payoff? A psychological sense of mastery. The adrenaline-to-euphoria connection.    Kastle's books build suspense through rising tension, then release it through resolution. This taps into what scientists call excitation transfer: the idea that physiological arousal (like increased heart rate and sweaty palms) intensifies whatever emotion follows it. So when the monster disappears—or the hero survives—we feel extra relief, even joy.This adrenaline -to-euphoria payoff is hardwired in us. It's why scary stories can be strangely uplifting. Monica's smart layering of supernatural danger and emotional stakes creates exactly this effect—fear that leads to catharsis (emotional release). We learn from the worst-case scenario.       Horror stories are deeply instructive. We unconsciously collect survival strategies as we read: What would I do in that cabin? Would I trust that character? How would I escape that pack of wolves? This “morbid curiosity” isn't unhealthy—it's evolutionary. Research during COVID-19 showed that horror fans were more psychologically prepared for uncertainty and threat.       Kastle's readers aren't just along for the ride. They're gathering intel. Her fiction activates our learning brain while thrilling our emotional core. Fear sharpens connection.       One of the most fascinating psychological effects of horror is called misattribution of arousal. It means we can confuse fear for attraction. In a famous 1974 study, men were more likely to feel romantic interest after crossing a dangerous suspension bridge than a safe one. That's because fear spikes adrenaline—which mimics the symptoms of romantic excitement.      Kastle's Cascade Wolves plays on this beautifully. Tense survival scenes mirror this “bridge effect,” where readers find themselves rooting not just for safety—but for slow-burn intimacy. Fear and empathy merge, drawing us closer to the characters and to ourselves. From fear to growth.      In Cascade Wolves, Kastle's heroines don't just run from fear—they grow through it. This mirrors what psychologists call “coping rehearsal.” Just as physical exercise strengthens the body, scary stories help train emotional muscles. Readers learn to manage panic, slow their breathing, and stay alert in high-pressure moments—all while sitting safely on the couch.    That's the deeper brilliance of Kastle's work: her stories aren't just entertainment. They're emotional conditioning.    Monica Kastle uses the language of fear to teach courage, deepen empathy, and rewire how we experience stress and safety. If you've ever wondered why we love scary stories—or how they help us heal—this episode    will change the way you think about horror.

When Emma Gatewood set off on the Appalachian Trail, she didn't look like much of a hiker. She was 67 years old. She wore a pair of Keds. She had no training. But she figured that wouldn't matter. An article in National Geographic magazine claimed that anyone in “normal good health” could hike the 2,169-mile trail. The article was misleading, but Emma persevered. In 1955, “Grandma Gatewood” became the first woman to complete a solo hike of the Appalachian Trail.  In this episode, we learn what Emma overcame, including domestic violence and sexual abuse, before she set foot on the trail.  Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!
