Dawn Richard is a proud New Orleans native and a true Renaissance Woman: singer; animator and Adult Swim creative consultant and owner of Papa Ted's vegan food truck in New Orleans.  Dawn went vegan back in 2013, in solidarity with her dad after he received a non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis. She talks about getting naked for PETA, the ethical intentionality behind her food truck and what (not-vegan) food she misses the most but will never eat again.  Then we crack into the history & explore the culture of what is, perhaps, New Orleans' oldest food tradition: crawfish! Food historian Dr Zella Palmer introduces host Rachel Belle to Al Scramuzza, the city's late Crawfish King, and shares her favorite places to experience a crawfish boil in the city.    Become a Cascade PBS member and support public media!     Watch Rachel's Cascade PBS TV show The Nosh with Rachel Belle.   Sign up for Rachel's (free!) biweekly Cascade PBS newsletter for more food musings.   Follow along on Instagram.   Order Rachel's cookbook Open Sesame.

For the final program of 2025, Simon Moore was invited into the home of a trailblazer of early music performance – not just in Australia, but also in the wider world. Winsome Evans founded The Renaissance Players in 1959, and quickly became a leader in the field. She appears on 33 albums, and has the aptitude to have taught herself to play that many instruments too. She's also a composer, having written and arranged music for radio, film and TV, and for half a century at Sydney University she taught and inspired generations of our musicians. This conversation tracks Winsome's early life from childhood to the formation, development and success of The Renaissance Players, as well as her life-long academic career. We hear about the music she has loved to perform, and the people she loved to perform it with, plus the instruments she has found, restored and played.

This week on Elevate Eldercare is an encore episode with former U.S. Surgeon General and current AgingIN Board Member, Joycelyn Elders, MD. In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday, we thought this very special discussion, in which AgingIN's Susan Ryan and the late Alex Spanko (who served as director of communications from 2021 to 2024) engage Dr. Elders in a discussion about her trailblazing life and career. An added motivation for the replay of this episode is that the New York Academy of Medicine recently presented Dr. Elders with the Alma Dea Morani Renaissance Woman Award. With humor and refreshing honesty, Dr. Elders shares her perspectives on racism, sexism, and all the other "isms" that continue to shape the way health care is provided in the United States. As an elder herself, she also provides insights into what she might want out of the U.S. eldercare landscape and how supports and services might fit into her still-busy life as a widely sought-after and admired public health expert. Dr. Elders is renowned for breaking barriers and sparking essential conversations throughout her remarkable career. Appointed in 1993 as the 15th Surgeon General of the United States, the first African American and only the second woman to hold that office, Dr. Elders brought unprecedented visibility to issues ranging from adolescent health and reproductive rights to substance use prevention and health education. TIME magazine named her "1994 Woman of the Year" and "One of the 100 Most Influential Women of the 20th Century."

Philip Nash's book Clare Boothe Luce: American Renaissance Woman (Routledge, 2022) is a concise and highly readable political biography that examines the life of one of the most accomplished American women of the 20th century. Wife and mother, author, editor, playwright, political activist, war journalist, Congresswoman, ambassador, pundit, and feminist—Luce did it all. Carefully placing Luce in a series of shifting historical contexts, this book offers the reader an insight into mid-century American political, cultural, gender, and foreign relations history. Eleven primary sources follow the text, including excerpts from Luce's diary, letters, speeches, and published works, as well as a TV talk-show appearance and a critic's diary entry describing an evening with her, helping readers to understand her fascinating life. Together, the narrative and documents afford readers a brief yet in-depth look at Luce with all her complications: glamorous intellectual, acid-tongued diplomat, and feminist conservative, she was a deeply flawed high-achiever who repeatedly challenged the entrenched sexism of her age to become a significant actor in the rise of the “American Century.” Addressing the neglect suffered by women in foreign relations history, this will be of interest to students and scholars of US foreign relations, 20th-century US history, and US women's history.

Their ingredients are sourced from regenerative agriculture, and their bread is packaged in a home compostable bread bag.  With brands, big and small, complaining about the sustainable packaging technology not having enough viable options for mass production, Pacha's sheer determination to be an eco-conscious brand at its core is what makes them stand apart.In this episode, we not only learn about Pacha's brand values, but also hear about Maddie Hamann's fascinating career transition - from studying civil engineering to oceanography and then pivoting to starting a gluten free bread business with her partner and three other co-founders – and why she calls herself a “Renaissance Woman”.Listen in to this episode to learn about how Pacha went out of its way to ensure all their ingredients are sourced from regenerative farmland only and what are the overall financial, moral, and even marketing implication of choosing to be an eco-conscious business owner.  Never miss an episode by following us on all our socials by clicking on the link below!⁠linktr.ee/goodgarbage⁠Don't forget to⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ turn on your notifications⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠leave us a review⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Ms. 5.15 – that was the moniker the climbing world bestowed on Margo Hayes after she became the first woman to climb the grade. Two more 5.15's followed and Margo seemed poised to be a defining climber of her generation. Yet, in the background, Margo was quietly struggling with Lyme disease and exploring other interests when she wasn't healthy enough to give climbing her all. What does a professional climber owe their sport, their community, and what do they owe themselves?  Thanks to our sponsors The North Face  COROS Use code CLIMBINGGOLD to get a free watch carabiner with the purchase of a VERTIX 2s watch when both items are in your cart.  LMNT Use link to get a free LMNT sample pack with any order  Watch Climbing Gold on YouTube

“When I was a very young girl, I used to tell my mom that my dream as a grownup was to have breakfast in a hotel every morning, every day of the year. And that actually turned out to be true. But I didn't think I would work in the family business in the beginning. It was like a love story in the end. It's unexpected who you fall in love with and I think I fell in love with hospitality, and then here I am.” We're in great company with Sara Maestrelli, the mysterious “Lady of the Palazzo,” and proud Owner of the recently opened Violino d'Oro, the latest jewel in her family's collection of hotels, located near the historical Grand Canal in the charming city that is Venice. Violino d'Oro is an “Italian artisanal project, designed like a home”, highlighting the hospitality business Collezione EM that has been actively curated for over three decades by the female lineage of the talented Italian Florentine family.  In this episode, Sara eloquently paints a picture with her words, showing how every corner of her boutique hotel is infused with Italian craftsmanship designed to outlast time and trend, with a more mindful and responsible approach to travel. Top Takeaways [1:45] Get to know a modern-day Renaissance Woman -  from growing up between Florence and New York, studying Neuroscience and Philosophy in Milan and London, spending a gap year in Switzerland, and all the while building a community of artists and craftspeople.  [5:20] Little did Sara's grandfather know when he purchased the historical Grand Hotel Minerva in Florence, that he would inspire his daughter, Sara's Aunt Elena, to build the family's collection of hotels known today as Collezione EM.  [8:10] “A collection is a collection of things that you love, that you pick up in time, that have a special place, and this is exactly what happened for Collezione EM. It's something that has been curated in time. Each hotel definitely has its own story. And when people ask me what ties them together, it's actually their differences, their individual identities.” [9:00] Learn about the slow curation of Collezione EM hotels over time, from their historical roots in Florence to how they summered in Forte dei Marmi amongst other Italians in search for understated luxury.  [16:20] Sara learned very early on in the family business that it is not about the buildings, or the things inside the buildings, that make the hotels memorable. It is about the people there and the way they experience that sense of place that really makes the world of difference.  [21:10] “When they ask us ‘Why Venice?' We say, ‘Why not?'” Sara explains how Venice is the greatest work of art mankind has ever created, as she has experienced first hand, literally, in renovating three separate hotels into one, the Violino d'Oro that stands true today.  [32:20] Just as Venice is complicated, intricate and intense, so it was in curating the design and details of Violino d'Oro to celebrate its craftsmanship and artistry throughout its 600 years of history.  [38:00] Expect to Dine In Good Company at Il Piccolo, where guests can indulge in the symphony of Venetian flavors from breakfast in bed to cicchetti and spritz at aperitivo. [41:30] When guests stay at such a place as Violino d'Oro, they have the unique opportunity to meet the local makers, explore their shops, purchase their products, because of their relationship with the Maestrelli's.  [43:10] And the family collection continues with their next hidden gem in Pensione America, opening in Forte dei Marmi in 2025.  Notable Mentions Carlo Scarpa, Italian Architect & Designer La Bienalle Di Venezia Cultural Exhibition  Cantine del Vino gìa Schiavi  Cantina Do Spade Firenze: Grand Hotel Minerva Brunelleschi Hotel Ristorante Santa Elisabetta Forte dei Marmi Villa Roma Imperiale Pensione America Bagno Assunta Visit For Yourself Violino d'Oro Website | @violinodorovenezia Collezione EM Website | @saramaestrelli

I'm on stage performing at Santa Barbara Improv. My scene partner and I are playing a game of He Said, She Said which goes like this: After every line of dialogue from one person, their scene partner will then narrate something physical for them to do. For instance, let's say that I say to my scene partner, “I'm so angry at you right now.” My partner then narrates something like, “She said while jumping up and down on one foot.” And I actually have to do the thing. So we're in the middle of a mob scene digging a hole, and my partner says, “She says while taking a cigar out of her back pocket and lighting it.” Being a dedicated athlete my whole life, I never learned how to light a cigar. So when I pretend to do it, I fumble around with it which causes the audience to lose it so much that my scene partner keeps on narrating me lighting cigars. Pretty soon, I'm losing it too, almost crying because I'm trying to hold in my laughter so much. It turned into a delightful disaster on stage, yet one that ends up being one of my funniest bits.  My special guest today can certainly relate. Polo Reo Tate is a comedian herself as well as an author, actress, keynote speaker, philanthropist, podcaster, and so much more. In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll hear how she champions authenticity and resiliency through storytelling and beyond and get answers to questions such as: Why do you have an innate Improv storytelling ability? How do the rules of Improv storytelling mirror the rules of life? How does reconciling within yourself the low points of your life impact your power as a speaker and storyteller? And what role does your physicality play in enhancing your stories? What you will learn in this episode: Why you have to get your story on paper, even if you never share it  How you can get unusual story inspiration from mundane situations How craft and intuition interconnect when preparing and giving a presentation Who is Polo? As an author by soul, actor by trade, artist at heart, and uplifter to the core of her being, Polo Reo Tate redefines what it means to be a Renaissance Woman. From a myriad of life experiences, she intimately understands the transformational value in mindfully getting to know ourselves wholly and love ourselves unconditionally in order to live fully in the freedom of our own authenticity. Her supreme love for people, and the clarity with which she sees and celebrates the superpowers of those around her, allows her to help elevate the energy of any relationship or situation brought forth by a client.  Whether she is in front of a camera, a crowd, or the company of one, Polo revels in the kinetic web of creativity that is born from every interaction, every co-creation. She lives each moment to the fullest, lets no one take her joy, and avidly operates from the belief that we can do anything upon which we set our minds, hearts, and spirits. She welcomes and invites you to embrace your own infinite possibility, embody the loving being that you are, and feel the power and the pleasure of being fully present in your own life.
