In this conversation recorded live at Shakespeare and Company, travel writer Monisha Rajesh talks about her new book Moonlight Express: Around the World by Night Train. From Paris to Istanbul, Scotland to India, the United States to Lapland, Rajesh explores the romance and realities of sleeper trains—where the carriages, the landscapes, and above all, the people become the story. She shares how her love of rail travel began in India, why night trains are enjoying a resurgence amid the climate crisis, and what it means to travel as a woman, a mother, and a writer in a turbulent world. Alongside the practicalities of packing eye masks and hot water bottles, Rajesh reflects on the communities that form in dining cars, the unexpected intimacy of train travel, and the way technology, politics, and global events shape the journeys we take.Buy Moonlight Express: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/moonlight-expressMonisha Rajesh is a British journalist whose writing has appeared in Time magazine, the New York Times, and Vanity Fair.

It quickly becomes obvious that he is hiding a secret: he is the widower of one of the female convicts of which Wu Hongyan assisted in the execution.

Jason Aldean (Full Throttle, My Kinda Party, Night Train) is a Grammy Award-winning country music artist. Jason joins the Armchair Expert to discuss the chameleonic effects of not spending more than two years at any school growing up, teaching himself guitar via cassette player, and how big the gap feels between his real-life and performance personas. Jason and Dax talk about the eye-opening experience of playing bars while in high school, how he puts his fingerprint on a song he hears promise in, and his adjustment from desert dwelling to sudden chart-topping success. Jason explains learning how to tour in a tenable way with his family, dealing with PTSD and survivor's guilt on behalf of his fans, and the reality in the country songwriting trope of ‘three chords and the truth.'Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

For many artists, an art career takes many twists and turns—an adventure shaped by different mediums, jobs, and ways of sustaining creative work while at the same time, educating oneself with the histories of your chosen path. On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Charles Spitzack. We talk about his discovery of mokuhanga and how it connects to his broader printmaking practice. Charles shares his early experiences making mokuhanga, his teaching methods, and how his understanding of the medium developed through a Western American perspective. He also speaks about his time at the Mokuhanga Project Space, and his thoughts on the differences between oil-based and water-based mokuhanga.

Mokuhanga (木版画) - is a Japanese word meaning "wood" and "print." Traditionally, it refers to a relief printing method using woodblocks, water, natural handmade papers, and water-based pigments. With the rise of the sōsaku hanga (creative print) movement in the early to mid 20th century, mokuhanga expanded to include works made with Western oil pigments as well. Today, mokuhanga can be difficult to define, as many artists experiment with new approaches while others remain dedicated to traditional water-based methods. This balance between innovation and tradition shows that mokuhanga is limitless, continually evolving while still grounded in its past. sōsaku-hanga - or creative prints, is a style of printmaking which is predominantly, although not exclusively, prints made by one person. It started in the early twentieth century in Japan, in the same period as the shin-hanga movement. The artist designs, carves, and prints their own works. The designs, especially in the early days, may seem rudimentary but the creation of self-made prints was a breakthrough for printmakers moving away from where only a select group of carvers, printers and publishers created woodblock prints.

Unlike most printmaking methods, where multiple copies of the same image can be produced, a monotype typically has a single, one-of-a-kind image. It's called a "mono" type because it is not part of an edition like traditional prints (e.g., lithographs, etchings), where you can make multiple copies. Mike Lyon - is an American artist.

This week, we are joined by filmmaker Michael Mabbott, the co-director of the Peabody award-winning documentary ANY OTHER WAY: THE JACKIE SHANE STORY, about the pioneering black trans soul singer. We discuss how Jackie had disappeared for 40 years and the surprise of finding out she was still alive, how Michael gained the trust of Jackie and her family to make the documentary, how he incorporated rotoscoped lip-syncs into the film using two trans legends (Makayla Couture from RuPaul's Drag Race and actress Sandra Caldwell), Jackie's childhood and early years performing in Memphis, literally running away to join the circus & her time performing with Jimi Hendrix, how hard it was to whittle down her incredible life into a feature length documentary and what didn't make it into the film, the Memphis TV show Night Train and its legacy, why Jackie said no to performing for Dick Clark & Ed Sullivan, why she chose to leave the spotlight & what dragged her back in, and why Jackie's story is so important to tell now with the current state of our world.So as Jackie says, "live your life because ain't nobody sanctified and holy" on this week's Revolutions Per Movie.

Today I'm so pleased to welcome back someone who you all loved the first time around on the podcast - the brilliant author and travel writer, Monisha Rajesh. Her passion for trains, and for the way rail travel slows you down and opens you up to new worlds, was just infectious. And I'm so excited to say that she's back with a gorgeous new book called Moonlight Express, which takes us deep into the magical world of sleeper trains. In this new adventure, Monisha journeys across Europe, the Americas and beyond, trading airports for railway platforms and following moonlit tracks through some of the most cinematic landscapes on Earth, which we have the pleasure of chatting about today. From the soft snow and candlelit calm of the Norwegian night trains to the fairy-tale villages of Transylvania, glimpsed at sunrise through the window of a creaky couchette on the Dacia Express. Or to the pastel-painted streets of Savannah, Georgia, in the US, reached on Amtrak's Silver Meteor. She takes us high into the Andes too, aboard the luxurious Belmond Andean Explorer from Cusco to Arequipa, where the train carves through deserts and towering peaks, so close to everyday life you feel like you could touch it. And back in Britain, she celebrates her mum's 70th aboard the Royal Scotsman, sipping whisky in the observation car as the Highlands go past.She reminds us what makes train travel so unique: the romance, the community, and the chance to simply sit by the window and watch the world roll by.Destination Recap: Oslo to trondheim, Trondheim to Buda, NorwayTransylvania, Romania FinlandPeru - Belmond Andean Explorer - Cusco to ArequipaBelmond Royal Scotsman Caledonia Sleeper Train, London to Edinburgh Cornish Riviera trainSilver Meteor - Orlando, Florida to Savannah, GeorgiaSavannah, Georgia, USAMoonlight Express: Around the World by Night Train by Monisha Rajesh is published by Bloomsbury (28 August).With thanks to Airbnb for their support of today's episode.Thanks so much for listening today.

Shetland, Scotland native and independent journalist Jen Stout was in Russia in late February 2022 when the war with Ukraine broke out and quickly left for a border post in southern Romania to cover the great flood of refugees who were fleeing the fighting. Weeks later she entered Ukraine to report first-hand from the front lines and cities across the country. A writer with a great sense of empathy, Jen's main interest was not military strategy or international politics, but the Ukrainian people – their indomitable spirit, their poetic sensibilities their hopes and fears. Her perspective is from the ground and her stories are filed from night trains, birthday parties, military hospitals and bunkers. Her very moving book is entitled: “Night Train to Odessa: Covering the Human Cost of the Russia's War.”Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

From Chummy Studios, Hye Jams Radio presents, “Paisan and Friends,” brought to you by Haig's Kabob House. This is the show where Armenian music meets high-energy entertainment! Hosted by the wild and unpredictable Paisan, a crazy Italian with a deep love for Armenian culture, this show delivers the hottest Armenian hits, timeless classics, and fresh new bangers—all with Paisan's signature flair. Whether you're here for the music, the madness, or the occasional off-the-rails storytelling, Paisan and Friends is your ticket to an unforgettable ride. The station was nearly empty when the Night Train pulled in, its steel wheels screeching against the tracks. Inside, the passengers were a mix of lost souls, dreamers, and music lovers—all seeking something just out of reach. At the center of it all sat Paisan, the unmistakable host with his loud laugh, dark shades, and an Armenian flag draped over his shoulders like a cape. "Next stop—Hye Jams, baby!" he shouted, cranking up the volume on a speaker that rattled the train car. The beat dropped, and suddenly, the dimly lit cabin transformed into a rolling party—ouds strummed, duduks wept, and basslines hit so hard they shook the seats. The Night Train wasn't just a ride; it was a journey through Armenian music history, culture, and soul, with Paisan as the conductor, spinning tracks that brought people together in a way only music could. Back at Chummy Studios, Paisan and Friends is that same Night Train—an unstoppable force of rhythm, passion, and pure Armenian fire. So hop aboard, buckle up, and get ready for a ride packed with bangers, laughs, and the kind of energy only Paisan on Hye Jams Radio can deliver.
