In this special Christmas episode, Barney and Ken explore how to stay focused on the true meaning of Christmas when the holiday season is "all around us" but often stripped of its deeper significance. Barney shares his unique experience celebrating Christmas in Japan, where it's more of a date night than a religious holiday, while Ken reflects on his American traditions and family memories. Together, they discuss Advent practices, meaningful Christmas artifacts, nativity scenes, and the challenge of passing faith traditions to the next generation. The episode concludes with Ken reading a moving story from Trans-Siberian Orchestra's "Christmas Eve and Other Stories" about an angel's search for what best represents the spirit of Christmas.

In this episode of the Project Narrative Podcast, Jim Phelan and Rhona Trauvitch discuss “The Bookmaking Habits of Select Species” by Ken Liu, first published in the August 2012 issue of the online journal Lightspeed, and then included in Liu’s 2016 collection entitled The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories. Rhona Trauvitch, Associate Teaching Professor at Florida International University, specializes in cross-disciplinary analogical reasoning, particularly at the intersection of literature and STEM. Trauvitch directs Florida International University’s Science and Fiction Lab, whose mission is to build bridges between research and teaching in STEM fields and in the humanities. Her work in the lab has been supported by Humanities Initiatives Award from the National Endowment for the Humanities, and most recently by a grant from the National Science Foundation. Trauvitch’s own research and teaching have been devoted to exploring how fictionality can be used to enhance non-scientists’ comprehension of science, including especially difficult to comprehend concepts in science. Trauvitch is the author of a forthcoming book, Fi-Sci: Avatars of Science and Fiction, which demonstrates her model in action. Trauvitch has also co-edited a forthcoming special issue of Style on the interrelations of fiction and science.

La habitación en la torre (The Room in the Tower) es un relato de vampiros del escritor inglés E.F. Benson (1867-1940), publicado en la edición de enero de 1912 en la revista Pall Mall, y posteriormente en la antología del mismo año: La habitación en la torre y otras historias (The Room in the Tower and Other Stories). [ver: El cuartito de Julia Stone: análisis de «La Habitación en la Torre» de E.F. Benson] SPOILERS La habitación en la torre, combina con magnífica precisión el vampirismo con los sueños, o mejor dicho, a los vampiros energéticos —también llamados vampiros psíquicos o vampiros emocionales— y los sueños recurrentes, en los cuales el protagonista se ve a sí mismo encerrado en una habitación en lo alto de una torre, completamente a oscuras, y presa de los salvajes apetitos de una vampiresa. En resumen: La habitación en la torre es un relato claustrofóbico sobre la este desgraciado joven que pasa largos años aterrorizado por una pesadilla recurrente; hasta que, cierto día, es invitado por un amigo a una fiesta familiar, donde finalmente se encontrará con aquel monótono y espeluznante escenario onírico. Los hechos, naturalmente, por fin lo conducen a la habitación en la torre, y a los brazos de la criatura profana que se pasea por el edificio.

"I will always go back to the well, and I will write until I die," says Jason Brown, author of Character Witness.Jason Brown is here. He is a brilliant short story writer and the author of the memoir Character Witness (University of Nebraska Press). It's an incredible book and we recorded this conversation at the end of October as the fourth and final LIVE podcast of the year at Gratitude Brewing here in Eugene. Jason, as luck would have it, teaches at the University of Oregon in its writing department, forging the young minds who will publish in the most obscure lit journals, the future bitter podcasters of America, sorry, speaking from experience. I'm projecting, OK?But thanks to Jason and his clout with the University, we had our biggest gathering of the year, live and in person. There's something pretty rad about the in-person jam.Jason can be found at writerjasonbrown.com. He writes fiction and nonfiction and was a Stegner Fellow and Truman Capote Fellow at Stanford University where he taught as a Jones Lecturer.

Structured in two almost novella-like sections, “Hard Margins” follows Wyoming's Towuk tribe. The story begins in the spring of 1958 and is told by Danny Hubbard, a Korean war veteran, who has taken this remote BIA position for a chance to remake his life...Out of a mixture of duty and boredom, Hubbard begins to read the reports written by his BIA predecessors, dating back to the 1870s, looking for answers. It's here he discovers the record left by Agent Dorrance, who almost religiously believed in his mandate, to work “for the welfare and improvement of the Indians.”Dorrance is an amazing creation, a man who can be admired and reviled on the same page. A Civil War veteran turned correspondent for Horace Greeley's New York Tribune, he quickly becomes a devotee of Greeley's idea of an agrarian utopia in the West, made famous with the phrase, “Go West, young man.”We often think that ideas such as Manifest Destiny and the needs of a growing population made western expansion a fait accompli, but Delaney's novel reminds readers about the mood of the country after the Civil War.The long, bloody conflict gave rise to a generation who wanted to believe their sacrifice meant something, which led many to utopian philosophies about how the spiritual connection of men to the land could undo the corruption of governments and cities. For many, the supposedly unpopulated West could be a chance to reinvent America, and leave behind the worst aspects of human nature.Edward J. Delaney is an award-winning author, journalist, and filmmaker. His books include the novels Follow the Sun, Broken Irish, and Warp & Weft, and the short story collection The Drowning and Other Stories. His short fiction has also been published in The Atlantic and Best American Short Stories, and featured on PRI's Selected Shorts program. Among other honors, he has received the PEN/New England Award, O. Henry Prize, and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. He is also the co-author of Born to Play, by Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia. As a journalist, Delaney has written for publications including the Denver Post and Chicago Tribune, received the National Education Reporting Award, and has served as an editor at the Neiman Journalism Lab at Harvard University. As a filmmaker, he has directed and produced documentary films including The Times Were Never So Bad: The Life of Andre Dubus and Library of the Early Mind.Born and raised in Massachusetts, Delaney has also spent time in Georgia, Florida, and Colorado, and now lives in Rhode Island, where he teaches at Roger Williams University and edits the literary journal Mount Hope.#authorpodcast #podcast #edwardjdelaney #speakingofwriterspodcast
A Fortunate Son: And Other Stories by Daniel J. DonoghueA Fortunate Son: and Other Stories is a collection of stories written across decades of Daniel J. Donoghue's life-chronicling his journey from youth to the present day. As he has grown, so too has his writing, shaped by the challenges and transformations of life itself.These slice-of-life narratives capture both the deeply personal and the universally human: love and loss, desire and regret, the weight of family, the scars of military life, and the quiet battles with mental illness. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, Donoghue explores the raw edges of experience-where tenderness and turmoil coexist.From the dim glow of roadside bars to the silent ache of suburban mornings, no subject is too intimate or taboo. Painted with empathy and precision, these stories invite readers to confront the fragile beauty and painful truths of being human, and to see the shifting colors of their own lives reflected in the work.Born in New York City and raised in northern New Jersey. Daniel has lived a life as varied as the stories he writes. After a colorful youth, he served in the US Navy, the Foreign Service and spent 20 years in the technology worldHe's the author of over 30 short stories, a novel “Gold in the Furnace”, a screenplay based on the novel and a play. He lives and writes in Santa Fe, NMhttps://www.amazon.com/Fortunate-Son-Other-Stories/dp/B0FTTKTLMZ/ref=monarch_sidesheet_titlehttps://www.danieldonoghuebooks.com/https://www.ecpublishingllc.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/121125ddec.mp3

“Nobody's perfect. There was never a perfect person around. You just have half-angel and half-devil in you.”Cinematographer Marcus Patterson joins Movies We Like hosts Andy Nelson and Pete Wright to discuss Terrence Malick's 1978 masterpiece Days of Heaven. Drawing from his own experience shooting the anthology film Sunfish (& Other Stories on Green Lake), Patterson explores how Malick and cinematographers Néstor Almendros and Haskell Wexler crafted one of cinema's most visually stunning achievements through their innovative use of natural light and magic hour photography.Patterson's journey to cinematography wasn't direct – he tried acting, writing, and editing before discovering his passion behind the camera. Starting with short films in Alabama, he developed his craft through countless projects before moving to Los Angeles. His work on Sunfish demonstrates his ability to capture intimate human moments while maintaining a painterly approach to composition and lighting, particularly in natural settings.The conversation explores how Days of Heaven revolutionized the use of natural light in cinema, with Patterson offering technical insights about how Almendros and Wexler achieved their remarkable images. Through Linda Manz's narration, the film presents its tragic love triangle from a child's perspective, creating emotional distance that heightens rather than diminishes its impact. Patterson connects these techniques to his own work on Sunfish, particularly in capturing the languid atmosphere of lake life and the delicate interplay of light and water.In both films, we see how careful attention to natural light and composition can elevate storytelling beyond mere narrative into the realm of visual poetry. Patterson's deep appreciation for Days of Heaven and its influence on his own work reveals how cinema's visual language continues to evolve while remaining rooted in these foundational techniques of capturing light and life on film.

Woke Mind Virus? How about the Whiteness Mindset! JVN welcomes psychologist and author Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter to dig into his new book, How I Know White People Are Crazy and Other Stories, and explore how a “whiteness mindset” shows up in everyday life. We talk about what it is, who exhibits it, how it drives control and denial, feeds our collective stress, and why naming it is the first step toward healing. From suppressing emotions to the lack of representation in mental health, Dr. Lassiter offers practical ways to care for ourselves and each other. We get into news hygiene (don't doomscroll first thing!), how celebrity culture can hijack important conversations, and what living under chronic threat does to the body and brain. Whether you're unpacking your own conditioning, supporting someone you love, or just trying to stay human in a loud news cycle, this episode gives you tools to regulate, relate, and repair.

This week on the podcast, we're joined by Bolivian author Liliana Colanzi, one of the most exciting new voices in Latin American horror. Her latest short story collection, You Glow in the Dark (2022), recently translated into English, blends science fiction, myth, and social commentary with a distinctly eerie beauty. We talk about the four books that shaped her imagination, the rise of female Latin American horror, and how she crafts stories that blur the boundaries between the cosmic and the intimate. A must-listen for fans of speculative fiction, contemporary horror, and global literature.Lit with Charles loves reviews.

The moment has arrived! That is, an actual announcement of Doctor Who's future from the BBC (and not the outgoing Disney+) in the form of a last hurrah from Russell T Davies and Bad Wolf by way of a Christmas special in 2026, along with official confirmation of Turf and Surf hitting the iPlayer this Christmas and Disney+ in February. What does this portend for both the present and future of Doctor Who? The Three Who Rule put on their television detective hats and as usual solve nothing, as do many entertainment journalists including friend of the show Kyle Anderson, and lesser lights such as Variety, Deadline, and The Hollywood Reporter. Plus the usual Big Finish cover over-analysis, a smidgen of Can*Con, and the conclusion of our four-part Classic Series Commentary for "The Sun Makers"!

It's a question we ask a lot on this show: do you have a mental health problem or is the problem actually rooted in the world you live in? Psychologist Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter says contemporary society lives under three different assumptions: there's not enough to go around, kill or be killed, and us versus them or divide and conquer and this results in people valuing individualism, competition, and materialism. This way of living, he says, is a result of white dominance or whiteness and it is a distortion of the way humans are meant to live and therefore leads to things like racism, sexism, homophobia, and the brutality of human beings to one another. Dr. Lassiter, author of How I Know White People Are Crazy and Other Stories says whiteness is not a mental health disorder but it is a mental health problem that we all need to face. Dr. Lassiter tells his own story, growing up with a chronic illness, gay, and Black in the South and eventually earning his PhD. in psychology. As he came to understand psychology and the way the world works, he noticed the impact of society's built-in obstacles on his own mental health journey and among the students and clients he has helped.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

Anyone who has ever picked up a copy of The Sneetches for their children has probably discovered that The Sneetches does not stand alone. Indeed, it appears in a collection called The Sneetches and Other Stories. Now we've never done The Sneetches on our podcast. That would be an episode for another day. Today, we look at the far lesser-known (possibly for good reason) title What Was I Scared Of? Previously published under the title Pale Green Pants (and I think we can all agree that this title change was a move in the right direction) it follows a pair of disembodied pants straight out of the film Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Today, Kate I consider it as a possible Halloween contender and, in the course of things, discuss the 1977 animated Halloween television special Halloween is Grinch Night, the difficulty of saying the term "anapestic tetrameter" aloud, why the true star of this book should be named "Torselus Todd", and (I won't lie) we may use the term "badonkadonk" more than once.

In a dim Underground carriage, a weary traveller meets a stranger whose silent presence unsettles more deeply than words can tell. Walter de la Mare's Bad Company is a tale where dread arises not from what happens, but from what might. Bad Company was first published in Walter de la Mare's final collection, A Beginning and Other Stories (1955). Walter de la Mare (1873–1956) was an English poet, novelist, and short story writer, best known for his uncanny tales and dreamlike verse. His supernatural fiction remains admired for its atmosphere, suggestion, and refusal to explain away the mysterious.
