    The authors of two nonfiction books say they were moved to change the world after finding inspiration in nature. First, Robin Wall Kimmerer's book The Serviceberry explores themes including economies of abundance and reciprocity in the natural world – similar to those addressed in her hit book Braiding Sweetgrass. In today's episode, Kimmerer joins NPR's Ari Shapiro for a conversation that touches on biomimicry, little free libraries, and what nature can teach us about human economies. Then, we hear from author Trish O'Kane. She says she didn't pay much attention to nature until Hurricane Katrina destroyed her home. Shortly after, she heard the call of a red cardinal, which launched her interests in ornithology and education. Her memoir Birding to Change the World draws connections between the world of birds and the author's own political activism. In today's episode, O'Kane talks with Here & Now's Robin Young about her early forays in ornithology, finding news in our backyards, and a special program of bird-related songs based on the book.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

    Cecilia, the main character in Olivia Abtahi's The Interpreter, wears an oversized green suit and tie. She's a kid, but she also works as a translator and interpreter for her immigrant parents. Whether at the DMV, the doctor's office or the mechanic, she's there to help out with cultural translation. The story, illustrated by Monica Arnaldo, is based on Abtahi's own experience growing up with an Iranian father and an Argentine mother who both spoke English, but sometimes needed support with cultural nuance. In today's episode, Abtahi speaks with Here & Now's Scott Tong about how translation is a full-time, adult job that can place a lot of pressure on young children. They also discuss the filial duty that first-generation kids sometimes feel and the importance of depicting the parents in the book with dignity.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Be part of something exciting as we prepare to launch. Join the Doctor Podcast Network today!—--------In this episode, Dr. Gita Pensa advocates for physicians navigating the storm of malpractice lawsuits. She opens up about the emotional and psychological toll of physicians being sued. She shares her own journey through litigation and how it inspired her to help others facing similar struggles. Dr. Pensa helps refine doctors' mindset during litigation, providing insightful guidelines to help defend themselves with confidence and clarity during depositions and trials. She recommends two goals for everyone in deposition; one is to accept the situation. Letting go of the emotions rather than argue over reality. At best grief, but don't suffer guilt. Secondly, that physicians be good defendants for themselves. She stresses that the physician's overall objective is to get the jury into their thought process, since they are not medical practitioners themselves.She believes that by supporting each other and advocating for systemic change, physicians can not only survive litigation but grow stronger through it. She also encourages doctors to push back against the unrealistic expectation of perfection in medicine, reminding them that they're humans. BIODr. Gita S. Pensa, M.D. is a speaker, educator, coach, and creator of Doctors and Litigation: The L Word. An associate Professor of Emergency Medicine, Clinician Educator, and Associate Director of the Emergency Digital Health Innovation program at Alpert Medical School of Brown University. She is the editor/host of the Academic Emergency Medicine podcast series, AEM Early Access. She podcasts and speaks nationally on litigation and litigation stress, and most recently won the 2019 Rhode Island ACEP chapter's Special Service Recognition Award for 'Courageous Public Advocacy of Rhode Island Emergency Medicine Colleagues.'She is widely recognized as one of the nation's leading experts on malpractice litigation, stress, and physician litigation support. She gives practical and psychological preparation necessary for malpractice litigation defendants. She's been featured in forums such as Time Magazine, South by Southwest, NPR, and a new PBS documentary, A World of Hurt, How Medical Malpractice Fails Everyone. She helps good doctors manage the stressors of adverse events, litigation, and burnout. Website: doctorsandlitigation.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gita-pensa-m-d-693557189Twitter (X): https://x.com/GitaPensaMDDoctors and Litigation: The L Word  Did you know…You can also be a guest on our show?

And what will the long-term consequences be for the separation of powers?“Jus Soli?

But how likely is it to work?“Fo' Drizz(coll).” The Trump administration's promised campaign of retribution has hit the Justice Department, where senior supervisors have been reassigned and prosecutors involved in the Jan. 6 investigations have been terminated, perhaps unlawfully. But now efforts to gather the names of FBI agents involved in those same investigations for presumed retribution are facing serious pushback, including from the Bureau's Acting Director Brian Driscoll (known as “the Drizz”).

She says she felt panicked and alone, despite the fact that tens of millions of women experience menopause each year. In a new book, Dare I Say It, Watts tries to open what she sees as a closed conversation around aging. Her advice-based book covers her own fertility story, her experience with menopause symptoms, skincare, nutrition and more.

    Donald Trump has officially paused the 25% tariffs on both Canada and Mexico just days after implementation. Trump claims that he spoke with leaders of both countries and was able to secure concessions from both that allowed him to pause the tariffs. What he didn't tell the public, however, was that ALL of the concessions from both countries were things that they had ALREADY agreed to do, so they didn't have to concede anything to win.The Trump administration suffered another crushing blow from a federal judge this week, as the restraining order that was put in place against his spending freeze was left in place. Trump's DOJ argued in court that he didn't have to abide by the court's original restraining order because they only addressed the memo from the Office of Management and Budget, and NOT Trump's executive order. It didn't matter in the eyes of the law, and that argument failed. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced this week that her DOGE Subcommittee in the House is going to be holding hearings with PBS and NPR to demand answers about their so-called "biased content." Greene specifically mentioned that neither outlet covered the "Hunter Biden laptop story," but a quick Google search proves that both outlets covered it extensively - and have provided updates for nearly 5 years!  Donald Trump may have temporarily paused the 25% tariffs against Canada and Mexico, but there are still more tariffs to come in the near future. And his blissful ignorance about who pays those tariffs could come back to haunt Republicans for years to come. A new poll has found that most Americans are NOT ok with their prices increasing as a result of his trade war, and they are well aware of who will be responsible when it happens. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!
