My Name is Emilia del Valle by Isabel Allende. Any new book from the wonderful Isabel Allende is a treat, and this is no exception. It begins in 1866 when an Irish nun becomes pregnant after an encounter with a wealthy Chilean who turns his back on them, and the baby and her mother have to fight for their place in the world. The child, Emilia del Valle, eventually becomes a writer and a journalist, and is eventually sent to cover the Chilean civil war along with a friend and colleague, Eric Whelan. There is history here as well as the romance, which makes it truly fascinating along with the romance. It was an extraordinary time. The Pretender by Jo Harkin. Set in 15th Century England at the juncture between the Plantaganets and the Tudors, this is fiction which is fun, bawdy, historically interesting and never takes itself too seriously. It tells the story of a young boy who through his lifetime is known by a series of names. Firstly, he's John Collett, growing up on a farm from which he's one day uplifted by a couple of noblemen, becoming known as Lambert Simnel and told that he is in fact the 17th Earl of Warwick and will challenge King Henry 7th for the Crown. I loved it. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From the vast desert landscapes to the vibrant streets of Riyadh, Steve shares his experiences capturing the essence of the region through his lens, and the meaningful connections he made with the local people. Hear about the unique challenges and rewards of photographing in the desert, the warmth of the Saudi people, and how travel can deepen personal perspective and storytelling. Steve's passion for visual storytelling shines as he talks about capturing the soul of a place through his camera.   Along with being a photographer, Steve Piacente is the owner of Next Phase Life Coaching. He is an author, former journalist, and Director of Training at The Communication Center in Washington, D.C. His novels include, “Bella,” “Pretender,” and “Bootlicker.” His latest non-fiction book is “Your New Fighting Stance: Good Enough Isn't, and You Know It.”  

Who was Lambert Simnel—the boy who nearly claimed the Tudor throne? In late 15th-century England, identity wasn't just a matter of birth—it could be a political weapon, a tool for rebellion, and sometimes, an outright performance. The story of Simnel, a boy plucked from obscurity and passed off as the York heir, reveals how precarious the Tudor dynasty really was—and how easily the lines between truth and fiction could blur. Author Jo Harkin joins us to explore the strange life of Simnel, the so-called Yorkist “pretender” who nearly toppled Henry VII. In her new novel The Pretender, Harkin imagines Simnel's life beyond the history books, from his childhood on a farm to his years at court. Along the way, she unpacks what it meant to be groomed for kingship, what royal power struggles looked like from a child's point of view, and how historical fiction can fill in the gaps of the past. Though Shakespeare never wrote a play about Henry VII, his portrayal of Richard III helped shape how we remember the Wars of the Roses—and how we understand power, myth, and legacy. Harkin reflects on those cultural inheritances, showing how writing about this era means grappling with historical facts and the fictions we've come to accept. Simnel's story reminds us that what endures isn't always what's real, but what people are ready to believe. Jo Harkin's debut speculative fiction novel, Tell Me An Ending, was a New York Times Book of the Year. Her first historical novel, The Pretender, was published in April 2025 in the U.K. and the U.S. She lives in Berkshire, England. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.

When Jo Harkin was in the middle of writing a science fiction novel, she took a procrastination break to read a book about kings and queens. That's when she came across the name Lambert Simnel in footnotes of British history, a known pretender to Henry VII's throne. In her novel, "The Pretender," Harkin elevates Simnel from the footnotes to an imagined history, filling in with fiction what written history might have left out. KMUW's Beth Golay talked to Harkin.

Do you have compassion for the homeless people you pass by on your way to work? What about the neighbor with the flag you disagree with? The boss who drops last-minute assignments on you three minutes before it's time to clock out? In today's message, Pastor Bill teaches that compassion isn't easy, but lucky for you, you have the King of Compassion walking with you. When you feel bitterness swelling up inside, remember that Jesus, nailed to the cross, had compassion for his accusers.

Jo Harkin discusses with Ivan six things which should be better known. Jo Harkin studied literature at university. She daydreamed her way through various jobs in her twenties before becoming a full-time writer. Her debut novel Tell Me an Ending was a New York Times book of the year. Her new novel is The Pretender, which is available at https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-pretender/jo-harkin/9781526678348. She lives in Berkshire, England. The ruin of Minster Lovell. This was the estate of the Viscount Lovell, one of the main characters in The Pretender. It's got enough standing walls and a beautiful vaulted entryway to allow you to imagine life there, but also the setting is stunning. Alice Chaucer's tomb, and the concept of the Memento Mori. An hour away from Minster Lovell, in Oxfordshire, are the former lands of the Earl of Lincoln, another main character in the novel. In the pretty village of Ewelme, St Mary's church contains the tomb of Alice Chaucer – grand-daughter of the poet himself, and the grandmother of Lincoln. The Fabliaux. A modern English verse translation of medieval French Fabliaux. These were stories told across all levels of medieval society. And they were absolutely filthy. Food/drink suggestion. A recipe for an overlooked and delicious medieval dish – the pre-potato pea pottage. Exhibition. The British Library Treasures room has a permanent display of original books, maps and manuscripts, including medieval and Tudor era items such as pages from Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks, Beowulf, and the first printing of the Canterbury Tales. Misericords. Westminster Abbey is on every London tourist's must see list, but often-overlooked feature are the misericords. In the magnificent Henry VII's chapel, where his and Elizabeth of York's tombs are located, the original 16th century hinged oak seats were not visible to the general public.

Quick! Pop quiz! What's 437 times 18.9? Okay, well, what does the U.S. Constitution say if you skip every third word? … Alright, what about an easier one? How do you do the impossible? Well, if you said, “Rely on God,” then you at least got one of the three right. Today, Pastor Bill teaches that your knowledge is limited, so when presented with the impossible, turn to the God who makes it possible. Walking with Jesus won't always make sense, but it will always be worth it.

When was the last meal you skipped? Some people like to skip breakfast, and sometimes, lunch gets put on the back burner while work gets done. But when did you last skip a meal to reflect upon the Lord? In today's message, Pastor Bill teaches that fasting doesn't have to be showy like the Pharisees made it out to be, and it's not as scary as you might think. When you fast the way Jesus instructs, it can be a beautiful experience for you and a blessing to God as you reflect on and honor Him.

What's the truth about Judas Iscariot? Has he truly been misunderstood all this time? Pastor Greg Laurie makes a biblical case for just how evil Judas actually was. Notes: Focus verse - Matthew 26 Judas Iscariot was perhaps the most paradoxical and wicked man in the Bible. Was Judas Iscariot misunderstood? Satan put the idea into Judas’s mind to betray Christ.John 13:2 Judas could have resisted that temptation. Judas initiated the betrayal of Christ.Matthew 26:14–16 Judas was a pretender, an actor, a performer. Don’t let someone else’s inconsistency keep you away from following the only one who is consistent, Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was the perfect example. Read Matthew 26:21–24 Even though Jesus knew what Judas was up to, He demonstrated love to Judas to the very end. Read Matthew 26:39–50 Jesus was considering the load of sin He would bear. Jesus cried out "Abba, Father,"Mark 14:36 When worry causes you to choke, cry out to God. Jesus was a model of what to do in times of uncertainty. Jesus demonstrated His divine power and gave a glimpse of His glory when the Roman soldiers came to arrest Him. Jesus was in complete control of everything.He was going to the cross as a Victor, not as a Victim. Judas ignored all the warnings that Jesus gave. The way Judas betrayed Christ was so abhorrent.Matthew 26:49 Judas was a hypocrite. Jesus reached out to Judas with love.Matthew 26:50 Jesus offered Judas one last chance to repent. Read Matthew 27:2–5 Judas did not have a friend in the world except for Jesus whom he just betrayed. Judas was remorseful.Matthew 27:3 God will not violate the will of man.He will affirm us in the decisions we make. But a true child of God will not continue to live in a pattern of sin.1 John 3:9–10 Two men failed Jesus on one night, Judas and Peter. Judas Iscariot turned away and walked into eternal remorse.Simon Peter walked into the open arms of God. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

Metagaming. It's one of the many topics that will spark controversy among those in the hobby. A listener wrote in explaining that they love making terrain and minis and have offered their services to their DM. Unfortunately, the DMs are reluctant, as they don't want the player to have metaknowledge or spoil the reveals of the campaign. In this episode, Tony, Chris, and Dave bring on our return special Wise DM, the Wizard Washburn, from our Terrain and Minis episode, to discuss how we have leaned into the inevitability of metagaming to enhance our campaigns by letting Scott build out a ton of our terrain, maps, and minis and how we have let it not spoil the fun for the DM, Scott, or any of the other players.3:40 Our return special guest… Scott “The Wizard” Washburn from Paper Terrain!5:05 The overview of how we approach compartmentalizing the knowledge of the player and the knowledge of the character.7:05 The fact of the matter – once you've played once, you now have “meta” knowledge.10:15 The Wizard Washburn reveals his general approach to planning with the DM in multiple campaigns he's been a player in.13:35 The idea of context in metagaming.18:22 Terrain is one thing… but what about miniatures and seeing what the other team is playing with?25:50 Always remember that RPG means roleplaying GAME.30:05 Leaning on players to help decrease the level of prep necessary for your game.32:07 Final Thoughts.

I used to watch a great sci-fi show back in the 90's called The Pretender, about a genius who could become anything he wanted to be, fit into any walk of life, which he used to do to help people. The people we will meet this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast are in no way geniuses though - for some people don't let trivialities such as qualifications or aptitude get in their way - and instead, rely on a bit of shopping, the gift of the gab, and more front than Brighton to get by.For this time around, we look at some of those pretending to be THIS side of the law.The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing and/or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening in.
