Journalist, novelist, and memoirist Omar El Akkad talks about his latest book, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This – a blend of memoir, social criticism, and moral philosophy. The book creates and shares space for everyone who is full of grief and rage, who cannot be at home in institutions that support or ignore genocide. We discuss the linguistic obfuscations around Gaza, El Akkad's critique of Western liberalism, and the possibilities for a different future.Show notes:You can get One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This from Penguin Random House, where a sample of the audiobook is available, read by Omar El Akkad.Omar's first novel, American War, is also available from Penguin Random.You can subscribe to BULAQ wherever you get your podcasts.

Send us a Text Message.Hosts Koji and Michelle delve into the intricate nature of genuine apologies and the actions that must accompany them to signify real growth and understanding. They share personal stories, such as Koji's challenging week with a broken-down car and a bat incident, and Michelle's temporary homelessness due to fumigation, to illustrate the complexity of apologies in everyday life.

Con Operación Jaque Mate (Madrid, Penguin Random, 2023), el escritor y periodista hispano-argentino Ernesto Ekaizer nos mete de lleno en el mayor escándalo político-financiero del siglo XXI en España: el caso Villarejo, y sus múltiples implicaciones que afectan a la Casa Real, la gran empresa y varios gobiernos de la historia reciente española. Al poner el foco sobre la disputa por el control del proceso legal contra un comisario retirado que se convirtió en el mayor distribuidor de información privilegiada y espía privado del país, Ekaizer muestra la trastienda de los movimientos políticos y jurídicos en favor y en contra de Villarejo, que acabaron con el arrinconamiento del fiscal del caso. El libro contiene múltiples revelaciones sobre crímenes de todo tipo, incorporadas a una narrativa que se mueve con rapidez hacia un inevitable desenlace que está aún desarrollándose en los tribunales.

A few years ago, writer and journalist Kurt Johnson set off on a mission to explore the legacy of the Soviet union. He travelled through a dozen countries, following 'a wake of a Soviet ship' — from the now dead Aral Sea in Uzbekistan to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine. His book The Red Wake was later published by Penguin Random house . - Несколько лет назад австралиец Курт Джонсон задался вопросом изучить наследние «советского проекта». Он проехал по десятку стран, вдоль по кильватерному следу советского корабля: от погибшего Аральского моря до Чернобыльской АЭС. После в издательстве Random House вышла его книга The Red Wake.

More game than parker brothers..... Sean Kantrowitz is a man of many talents. He is a whole ass musician who has worked with some of the most ginormous names in the music industry (DR.DRE??). He is super tight with Questlove and has even provided input for some of the music intros on the Jimmy Fallon Show. But his most recent project has put him in the interesting position of being hip hop's preeminent quizmaster. After piloting a Hip Hop trivia night (which evolved into a online show) called The Questions with his cousin DJ Steve 1nder, Sean has reached uncharted heights for a real hip hop head, his trivia game has just hit the streets thanks to Penguin Random house publishing. Sean was kind enough to join Nate and Demone for a conversation about gamifying hip hop and much more. During the funky intro Nate and Demone talk about the board games they played growing up. On the B-side Nate attempts to stump Demone with trivia queries from the Questions Hip Hop Trivia game. "Dodododo it's the audio daily double!"

1. Amazon has a number of bugs that can affect a Kindlepreneur's business, but there are ways to work around them. 2. A judge has blocked Paramount's sale of Simon & Schuster to Penguin Random House, citing antitrust concerns. 3.

La obra de Erika L. Sánchez —autora de I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter (Knopf Books, 2017), finalista de National Book Awards 2017 y traducido como Yo no soy tu perfecta hija mexicana (Penguin Random)— debe leerse con mucha atención. Su obra es, no solamente una oportunidad de entender la vida, los problemas y los retos de las niñas, jóvenes y mujeres de origen hispano en los Estados Unidos, es también un homenaje a las muchas madres migrantes, las situaciones en las que quedan atrapadas y los esfuerzos que hacen para sacar adelante a sus familias. En su último libro Crying in the bathroom (Viking, 2022) y en español Llorando en el baño (Vintage español, 2022), Erika hace una cándida y honesta confensión de su vida, donde nos habla de depresión, deseo, racismo, el humor como escape, y el peso de la tradición en las familias. Con todo ello, establece un diálogo que es necesario con otras jóvenes y se convierte en una inspiración y una motivación para muchas de ellas. Erika nos dice en esta maravillosa conversación que: “Lo que no podemos hablar nos mata” y confiesa “no me da miedo escribir sobre cosas difíciles, porque todos somos humanos, todos hacemos errores”. Muchas gracias a Penguin Random House y Vintage Español por hacer posible esta entrevista.

What's the purpose of poetry anyway? In these troubling times of ecological challenge, political vitriol, and social unrest, it's easy to wonder about the value of the arts in all forms. But for Susan Goldsmith Wooldridge, the answer is simple. Poetry isn't merely a distraction from the world, it's a necessary element of surviving in it. She sees herself as living between the worlds, the one our bodies inhabit and the one from where poems come. She's dedicated much of her adult life to inviting others to join her in a world of words, taking poetry out of its rooms in high towers and making it accessible to anyone. Susan's book, Poemcrazy: Freeing Your Life with Words (now in its 30th Crown/Random House printing) was number 7 on a Penguin Random list of the best books on writing. Anne Lamott wrote, “This is a wonderful book—smart, wide-eyed, joyful, helpful, inspiring. You're going to love it, and love writing poetry more for having read it.” Susan has held workshops on journals, creative writing and collage with thousands of adults and children and has worked in over 80 rural libraries in sessions sponsored by Poets & Writers Org. Susan has a chapbook of poems, Bathing with Ants, and a book on creativity and collage, Foolsgold: Making Something from Nothing and Freeing Your Creative Process (Crown).

Economics textbooks tell us humans created money to overcome the drawbacks of barter. If your chicken wasn’t worth someone’s bushel of grain, you had no bread and they had no meat. Anthropologists see things differently. Markets didn’t necessarily come first, they say. In fact, they argue, it’s the money we use that determines the type of society we live in. In the latest New Money Review podcast, ‘the future of money in 30 minutes’, anthropologist and historian Brett Scott talks about the origins of money, debt and finance. Scott is an author and a campaigner for alternative financial and monetary systems. His latest book, ‘Cloud Money’, will be published in 2021 by Penguin Random and Harper Collins. In the podcast, Scott explains why anthropologists approach the topic of money quite differently from economists. “Anthropologists ask, ‘how do people provision for themselves in the world?’” says Scott. “But economists start by saying ‘how do people trade?’,” he says. “And the way economists view money starts from the assumption that trade is the default in all societies, whereas anthropologists don’t assume that.” “Anthropologists would say that money creates markets, whereas economists would say that markets precede money.” In the podcast, Scott discusses: the origins of money monetary systems and modern market capitalism the ideological roots of cryptocurrency bitcoin and commodity money the hybridisation of traditional and crypto finance local currencies and community money decentralised mutual credit systems bigtechs and money the battle to preserve cash
