After 17 years of communicating to readers as a newspaper wine columnist with a side gig online, the ground shifted, the medium and the stylistic conventions of the message changed.As a newspaper writer, the style leaned toward formality and objectivity, even though a newspaper column is more personal than a formal newspaper story. For instance, in the beginning of the column's life, when I expressed an opinion not supported by facts or other sources beyond my personal perspective, the convention was to phrase it as “in this wine writer's opinion.” A bit arch, yes, but it followed the canon of objective news writing.As the column evolved, I became more comfortable with the grammatical first person: use of subject pronouns—I, me, mine, myself, my. By that time, the column had become a discussion with readers rather than a news story about wine. There was more freedom, but there remained awareness that as a newspaper wine columnist, my first job was to inform people about wine. If I entertained them as part of the formula, well and good. But entertainment and personal discourse was value added, not Job One. My primary assignment was to interest people in wine, a product sold by supermarkets and wine-liquor stores advertising in the paper, thus paying for the newspaper and my work.In 2024-2025 there was a sea change in newspaper wine writing. In major publications such as the Washington Post, the Oregonian, the Seattle Times, the Los Angeles Times, and my position as nationally syndicated by Gannett/USA Today in hundreds of smaller newspapers ended. Declining newspaper circulation and resulting budget cuts and declining wine sales were the reasons. It was a cold-water-in-the-face reminder that nothing lasts forever.Fortunately, during the 17-year newspaper run I invested in establishing an online presence. First at my website, which I controlled, and on Facebook, which was easy. Then came Twitter/X, Substack, Linkedin, Bluesky, Apple podcasts, and Vocal. These initially existed as adjuncts to the print work. Today, they are my only platforms.Writing to my online audience is different from writing for a newspaper reader. Online is more intimate and personal. After all, the online audience is engaged with me and my work without distractions of other coverage. The newspaper writing was, in part, to provide editorial content to support advertising. Particularly in the beginning, my column anchored the front page of the “Food Section” of the newspaper, chock full of ads from grocery stores and wine and liquor stores that sold wine.Now my work stands alone. You come to it because you want to be entertained and educated by my content of words and pictures. You made a conscious decision to click on the specific link or open the email. You did not just open a newspaper thrown on your front lawn. The online medium is more intimate. The connection is more a conversation with a friend—in the case of the podcasts, an actual verbal communication. I am comfortable with the new challenges.The change also affects the dynamics of creation. Gone is the tyranny of a 450-word requirement to fill a specific space in a print hole. Gone is the tyranny of a weekly deadline—in my case, I submitted all four or five of a month's columns together at one time at least a week prior to the first column's deadline. Frazzled editors loved that, but it meant I wrote weeks ahead of publication.I intend to strive to post every week, but now I can slide if exigencies interrupt or opportunities present for more than once a week. And, beyond columns, there remains my near-daily tasting notes, plus the extra bonus wine time humor material. My trepidation is providing you with too much content.If you have read this far, I thank you for being part of our wine and humor adventure together. The online platform you are reading or listening to is my only communications link. I would appreciate your help in recruiting others who you believe might enjoy or be entertained.

I mean, you've got'a laugh, aintcha! Nitrous Oxide made “a picaresque journey from laboratory to lecture hall, variety palace to dentist's chair.” A substance that does not exist in nature, it fairly blew the minds of the radical scientific community in the late 18th Century when it was isolated and synthesised. Some of them couldn't decide whether it was more remarkable medicinally or recreationally. What they did know was that it was a wonderful product of a modern scientific sensibility. It is a story that takes in Joseph Priestley, Erasmus Darwin, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Robert Southey, Humphrey Davy, Peter Mark Roget (yes, that Roget), James Watt, and at its centre, … Continue reading →

The Spark is hosting its annual book-as-gifts- guide. We spoke with Catherine Lawrence, co-owner of the Midtown Scholar Bookstore in Harrisburg, Travis Kurowski, (Ph.D) an assistance professor of creative writing at York College of Pennsylvania, and Carolyn Blatchley MLIS, Executive Director of Cumberland County Library System. The Midtown Schloar Bookstore recommendation can be found here. The Cumberland County Library Systems recommendations can be found here. Travis Kurowski Recommendations list below: NONFICTION Heartbreak Is the National Anthem: How Taylor Swift Reinvented Pop Music By Rob Sheffield I just ordered this book because I am in love with a woman who is the biggest Taylor Swift fan I have ever met. As it happens, I have only recently realized the most obvious thing about Swift's music: It's mostly about heartbreak. Our American Shakespeare of longing and distance, of regret and revenge, Swift's oeuvre is analyzed from first album to last by best-selling Rolling Stone journalist Rob Sheffield in this new book. From the publisher: “Heartbreak Is the National Anthem: How Taylor Swift Reinvented Pop Music is the first book that goes deep on the musical and cultural impact of Taylor Swift. Nobody can tell the story like Rob Sheffield, the bestselling and award-winning author of Dreaming the Beatles, On Bowie, and Love Is a Mix Tape. The legendary Rolling Stone journalist is the writer who has chronicled Taylor for every step of her long career, from her early days to the Eras Tour. Sheffield gets right to the heart of Swift and her music, her lyrics, her fan connection, her raw power.” The Message By Ta-Nehisi Coates Baltimore native Ta-Nehisi Coates's new book of nonfiction takes a risk in being human. I've been following Coates since his days reporting for The Atlantic where he made national attention making a persuasive case for reparation. Since then, he's published a best-selling works of fiction and nonfiction, even written for Marvel Comics. This latest book from Coates is an analysis of how myths and stories shape cultures and nations, from Senegal to the ongoing war on Gaza. From the publisher: “In the first of the book's three intertwining essays, Coates, on his first trip to Africa, finds himself in two places at once: in Dakar, a modern city in Senegal, and in a mythic kingdom in his mind. Then he takes readers along with him to Columbia, South Carolina, where he reports on his own book's banning, but also explores the larger backlash to the nation's recent reckoning with history and the deeply rooted American mythology so visible in that city—a capital of the Confederacy with statues of segregationists looming over its public squares. Finally, in the book's longest section, Coates travels to Palestine, where he sees with devastating clarity how easily we are misled by nationalist narratives, and the tragedy that lies in the clash between the stories we tell and the reality of life on the ground.” Lovely One: A Memoir By Ketanji Brown Jackson The election was hard for everyone—every national election has been in recent memory. Memoirs from people behind the scenes in spaces shaped by such elections have always been popular, more recently they seem to be a source of sustenance. I cannot see the new memoir by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson—the first black woman and first public defender to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court—as anything else. From the publisher: “With this unflinching account, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson invites readers into her life and world, tracing her family's ascent from segregation to her confirmation on America's highest court within the span of one generation.” FICTION The Vegetarian By Han Kang 2024 Nobel winner for Literature, Han Kang also won the 2016 Booker Prize for her most widely read novel, The Vegetarian, a short novel I read in a gulp years ago when it was first translated from the Korean into English by Deborah Smith. The power of The Vegetarian is ineffable, which is an odd thing to say for a book—that it is beyond words—but that is the power and experience of great art.     A perfect introduction to Kang's work. From the publisher: “Before the nightmares began, Yeong-hye and her husband lived an ordinary, controlled life. But the dreams—invasive images of blood and brutality—torture her, driving Yeong-hye to purge her mind and renounce eating meat altogether. It's a small act of independence, but it interrupts her marriage and sets into motion an increasingly grotesque chain of events at home. As her husband, her brother-in-law and sister each fight to reassert their control, Yeong-hye obsessively defends the choice that's become sacred to her. Soon their attempts turn desperate, subjecting first her mind, and then her body, to ever more intrusive and perverse violations, sending Yeong-hye spiraling into a dangerous, bizarre estrangement, not only from those closest to her, but also from herself. Celebrated by critics around the world, The Vegetarian is a darkly allegorical, Kafka-esque tale of power, obsession, and one woman's struggle to break free from the violence both without and within her.” All Fours By Miranda July There has been no other book I've heard about as much this year as filmmaker and fiction writer Miranda July's latest novel All Fours, about what happens when we ignore our desires—by which I mean, ignore our very selves—and the confusing struggle it might be to ever find ourselves again. The conversations I've had about this book have been as rich and meaningful as the book itself, conversations I hold dear and have changed me forever. From the publisher: “A semi-famous artist announces her plan to drive cross-country, from LA to NY. Thirty minutes after leaving her husband and child at home, she spontaneously exits the freeway, checks into a nondescript motel, and immerses herself in an entirely different journey. Miranda July's second novel confirms the brilliance of her unique approach to fiction. With July's wry voice, perfect comic timing, unabashed curiosity about human intimacy, and palpable delight in pushing boundaries, All Fours tells the story of one woman's quest for a new kind of freedom. Part absurd entertainment, part tender reinvention of the sexual, romantic, and domestic life of a forty-five-year-old female artist, All Fours transcends expectation while excavating our beliefs about life lived as a woman. Once again, July hijacks the familiar and turns it into something new and thrillingly, profoundly alive.” Playground By Richard Powers Richard Powers won the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for fiction for his previous novel The Overstory, arguably the single most important American novel ever published about our relationship to the environment, all told through the lens of our human relationship to trees. Powers's latest novel, Playground, is about artificial intelligence and the ocean. And I expect nothing less. From the publisher: “Four lives are drawn together in a sweeping, panoramic new novel from Richard Powers, showcasing the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Overstory at the height of his skills. Twelve-year-old Evie Beaulieu sinks to the bottom of a swimming pool in Montreal strapped to one of the world's first aqualungs. Ina Aroita grows up on naval bases across the Pacific with art as her only home. Two polar opposites at an elite Chicago high school bond over a three-thousand-year-old board game; Rafi Young will get lost in literature, while Todd Keane's work will lead to a startling AI breakthrough. They meet on the history-scarred island of Makatea in French Polynesia, whose deposits of phosphorus once helped to feed the world. Now the tiny atoll has been chosen for humanity's next adventure: a plan to send floating, autonomous cities out onto the open sea. But first, the island's residents must vote to greenlight the project or turn the seasteaders away. Set in the world's largest ocean, this awe-filled book explores that last wild place we have yet to colonize in a still-unfolding oceanic game, and interweaves beautiful writing, rich characterization, profound themes of technology and the environment, and a deep exploration of our shared humanity in a way only Richard Powers can. COMICS Future By Tommi Musturi I saw this book while browsing with my daughters and close friends at Lost City Books in Washington, DC—a bookstore I cannot recommend enough for its curation, display, and overall artistry in the selling of books—and it actually took my breath away. I saw it from across the room, huge and bold in color and design. Almost the shape and size of a small board game, this absolutely thrilling collection of Mutsuri's is so stunning it feels unbelievable it exists and, more than that, was somehow published. It's an atomic explosion of creativity fracturing the very medium of comics. Few art experiences in the world give such a rush. From the publisher: “A graphic, genre-mashing magnum opus from one of the most restlessly creative voices in comics. Tommi Musturi's Future traps the reader into a web of stories happening in different timespaces, providing perspectives on the possible futures of mankind through imaginary future worlds, current events, historical references, utopias, and ideals. Future is a mash-up of the familiar and the terribly alien: quotidian existence, sci-fi spectacle, utopian fantasy, AI dystopia, and other worst-case scenarios. Richly philosophical and allegorical, Musturi gives us alcoholic magicians, guerrilla art squads, mutant reality television hosts, and incel archaeologist-astronauts, among many others. Weaving between a variety of styles in illustration and narration that transform and reflect our constantly changing reality, Future is an impassioned graphic novel for our times that renews the medium of comics—a vital and multifaceted work of art.” Here By Richard McGuire Now a major motion picture starring Tom Hanks and Robin Writing, Richard McGuire's 2014 graphic novel Here is almost made small by calling it a graphic novel. It is, certainly, a work of fiction, and so technically then a graphic (comic) novel (fiction), but it's also one of the strangest and most beautiful works in the comics medium ever made. Every page of the book is a drawing of the same corner of the same room across 300 million years of history. Yes, the same space, variously drawn, across 300 million years. And seeing that space across time, stories do emerge, but only in the same way they do in the reality within which we all exist—because we construct them. Since the first pages of the book concept were published in 1989, its impact has rippled throughout the comics world, and continues to. From the publisher: “From one of the great comic innovators, the long-awaited fulfillment of a pioneering comic vision: the story of a corner of a room and of the events that have occurred in that space over the course of hundreds of thousands of years.” POETRY By Fady Joudah There are few contemporary issues as important as the well-being and fate of the Palestinian people, and few voices in American literature as important and prominent in this area as Palestinian American poet and physician Fady Joudah. The book's strange title, […], is a pictogram, a symbol evoking meaning: silence, perhaps, or erasure. The brackets for what has been omitted, the internal ellipsis for all that remains unsaid. Joudah wrote the poems in […] between October and December 2023, a time of much suffering, ceaseless since. From the publisher: “Fady Joudah's powerful sixth collection of poems opens with, ‘I am unfinished business,' articulating the ongoing pathos of the Palestinian people. A rendering of Joudah's survivance, […] speaks to Palestine's daily and historic erasure and insists on presence inside and outside the ancestral land. Responding to the unspeakable in real time, Joudah offers multiple ways of seeing the world through a Palestinian lens—a world filled with ordinary desires, no matter how grand or tragic the details may be—and asks their reader to be changed by them. The sequences are meditations on a carousel: the past returns as the future is foretold. But ‘Repetition won't guarantee wisdom,' Joudah writes, demanding that we resuscitate language ‘before [our] wisdom is an echo.' These poems of urgency and care sing powerfully through a combination of intimate clarity and great dilations of scale, sending the reader on heartrending spins through echelons of time. […] is a wonder. Joudah reminds us ‘Wonder belongs to all.'” Wrong Norma By Anne Carson I've been following Canadian poet Anne Carson's career since I picked up a copy of her wildly experimental and stunning 1998 book, Autobiography of Red—" richly layered and deceptively simple, Autobiography of Red is a profoundly moving portrait of an artist coming to terms with the fantastic accident of who he is”—while living for a summer at the home of potter Jim Romberg in southern Oregon, details that may seem insignificant, but that's not how art works on us. Carson is one of the world's—the world's—most experimentally stunning poets who somehow still reaches the depth of human emotion. A classicist who has translated the Greek Tragedies for the stage, along with the most stunning book of Sappho's poetry I've ever read, Wrong Norma is a sampling of the same erudition and emotion we have for decades expected from the poet. Oh, and she's incredibly funny. I haven't read this book yet, but I will, because I agree wholeheartedly with the late Susan Sontag about Carson: “She is one of the few writers writing in English that I would read anything she wrote.” From the publisher: “Published here in a stunning edition with images created by Carson, several of the twenty-five startling poetic prose pieces have appeared in magazines and journals like The New Yorker and The Paris Review. As Carson writes: ‘Wrong Norma is a collection of writings about different things, like Joseph Conrad, Guantánamo, Flaubert, snow, poverty, Roget's Thesaurus, my Dad, Saturday night. The pieces are not linked. That's why I've called them ‘wrong.'”Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the latest episode of The Film Scorer podcast I'm joined by Wilbert Roget, II (Star Wars: Outlaws, Helldivers 2, Mortal Kombat). While Wilbert is best known for his work scoring video games, including recently receiving a Grammy nomination for Star Wars: Outlaws, our focus is on something a little different. Wilbert has just made his first foray into scoring for tv, with the limited series Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance! As such, we dig deep into his score for the six-episode series, including building out the eclectic sonic palette, working closely with the Japanese team, being the first non-Japanese composer to score a Gundam project (and the pressures that come with that, and plenty more. He even lists some of his favorite Gundam series, both in terms of overall show as well as primarily for their score. We also drive down other avenues, such as his work on other games, scoring 48-hour game jams, and how Japanese music his significantly impacted him. Wilbert's score, and much of his other music, is available on all major platforms. Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance is currently on Netflix (at least in most territories). You can find out more about Wilbert on his website.

Wilbert Roget II, lead composer on the much anticipated open-world video game Star Wars Outlaws, explains how he went about composing a soundtrack that was fresh while still incorporating core elements of the franchise's music. He also delves into his creative process, and teases what fans can expect from the game's music and audio.

Když se řekne Star Wars, všichni si představí velkolepé melodie Johna Williamse. Nová hra Star Wars Outlaws, podobně jako například seriál Mandalorian, ovšem dokazuje, že se hudební doprovod dá uchopit úplně jinak a pořád to bude znít jako hudba z milované předaleké galaxie.  Je to zásluhou Wilberta Rogeta II., který se na hrách ze Star Wars universa podílel už dvě dekády nazpět. Jeho příběh a kariéra krásně ilustrují, jak barvitou dráhu může herní skladatel mít. Někdy dělal v týmu, jindy sólo, pokaždé ale trochu jinak a teprve v posledních letech se dostal do pozice výrazného skladatele. Proto jsme mu věnovali tento díl podcastu Retro noty. A jeho příběh tím zdaleka nekončí, vzhledem k nízkému věku se od něj bezpochyby dočkáme dalších skvělých melodií!

Peter Mark Roget waited until retirement to compile his personal collection of synonyms into a book for publication: the first edition of Roget's Theasurus, released on 29th April, 1852.  Despite initial scepticism from critics, who couldn't grasp its practical brilliance, the public embraced the new format - despite its unconventional organisation, in which synonyms were categorised by conceptual threads, rather than in alphabetical order. In this episode, Arion, Olly and Rebecca explain how Roget drew inspiration from the systematic brilliance of Carl Linnaeus; discover literary references to the book in J.M. Barrie and Sylvia Plath; and question whether Roget's work was an entirely positive development for journalism… Further Reading: • ‘Roget and His Thesaurus' (The Saturday Evening Post, 2023): https://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2023/01/roget-and-his-thesaurus/ • ‘Peter Mark Roget, the Keeper (See: Steward, Caretaker) of Synonyms' (The New York Times, 2008): https://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/18/books/18book.html • 'Eulogy at a Roget's Thesaurus Funeral - Johnny Carson' (NBC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSYzLJiSZzM Love the show?

This episode contains: Devon doesn't feel the valentine's spirit this week. Ben's kid loves Trailmakers, Ben used barter.vg to trade for the game. "Are we back to bartering?" asks Steven. Did we ever stop? Steven knows about bartering thanks to Fallout 1. Devon & Ben watched the Superbowl. Steven went to a SB party but didn't watch it. Steven is really enjoying Hogwarts Legacy. Steven recognized Ben was way too stressed out over debt in our Traveller game. Ben learned that he had more fun in an RPG by making it a "yes day." We don't want to be Murder Hobos in RPGs. Context around the term "murder den" is helpful. This Week in Space: Ring discovered around dwarf planet Quaoar confounds theories. There's a ring around the dwarf planet Quaoar just outside the solar system. How is the dwarf planet Quaoar pronounced? Devon tries his best. Quaoar has rings further away from the planet than we thought possible. The Roche limit is the zone where a planetary ring can be created. Scientists discover planets by observing their gravitational pull. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/feb/08/ring-discovered-around-dwarf-planet-quaoar-confounds-theories#:~:text=Astronomers  THE YEAR 2000! I mean 2038: Remember the year 2000? Destiny's Child was huge. Y2K was a thing. Is Y2K behind us? Maybe! Y2K38 is upon us. It's the Epochalypse! Unix time started 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970. What's a Unix system? Got an iPhone or an Android? You have a Unix system. Watch out! The Epochalypse bug will happen 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038, and all 32-bit systems will crash! When was Unix first created? Development started in 1969. We can solve the Epochalypse by going 64-bit, and give us 292 billion years more time. In 2038, do you think Destiny's Child will make a comeback? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem The Back Half: Devon encourages our Patrons to keep doing what they're doing. We talk about some feedback we got from a Patron! You know Ben has a Merriam-Webster's unabridged dictionary. Silly Ben said Roget's Thesaurus, meant Merriam-Webster's unabridged dictionary. The Big Question: Is technology making many jobs obsolete? If so, should we have a universal basic income? We talk the iterative nature of societal development. Are white collar jobs becoming obsolete too? YEP! Should government slow the pace of tech to ensure worker's can keep up? No. We talk about how cool universal basic income would be. Ben grew up a welfare kid: his parent's had govt support, and Ben is grateful. Ben's family had the benefit of society helping people, and made Ben who he is. Steven talks about how life changed after getting laid off. Life would have been easier for all of the hosts with universal basic income. Do you think less people would be willing to work with universal basic income? The 1980s concept that more money = happy life is not true. A good emergency can financially derail anybody. Is there a solve? Just because some people leech off a system, does it mean we shouldn't have nice things? Is offering help with conditions really offering help? Is it fully altruistic? Which other social programs would be superceded by universal basic income? How can we fix the inflation problem with universal basic income? Minimum wage is not a living wage. Would universal basic income be a living wage? Will Devon go to the robot-run McDonalds in Texas? Time will tell. Kurzgesagt Universal Basic Income video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl39KHS07Xc    Patreon Only: Patreon-only pre-show: "Up is go!" The Lost in Space movie has a cool level of 1 million, says Ben.  Devon has trouble with embedding websites in Notion, and he's frustrated. Devon doesn't know what a fuzzy search is. Even if you're a boomer on TikTok, you can say "get off my lawn" to mean gatekeepers. Ben is happy to be a house spouse. Patreon-only mid-show: Have you guys heard about bit flips from cosmic rays? Devon has. Steven: Player's Guides are trash, now that we have the internet. Next week we'll be recording in person! All three of us! Maybe talk Quantumania. Patreon-only post-show: We talk Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro. So touching. Devon likes the book Anxious People. There's a reason for the different zombies in The Last of Us. That new Flash trailer looks fun. Ever wanted to know why Ben is pissed at a Star Trek novel?

Roget Chahayed's work is nominated for six Grammys this year, including Album of the Year for Mary J. Blige's “Good Morning Gorgeous (Deluxe).” That's not bad for a kid from the valley. When you buy something that has an “organic” label on it, can you trust that it is? The USDA is implementing new rules to protect the integrity of the organic supply chain, and build consumer and industry trust. In the last year, there have been more calls for workers' rights and higher wages. Locally, Assembly Bill 257 would raise wages and ensure safer environments for lower-paid food service workers.

On this day in 1779, English thesaurus author Peter Mark Roget was born in Soho, London.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to January 18th, 2023 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate having a way with words and silly old bears. You may not immediately recognize the name Peter Mark Roget, but chances are you've read his book. Or at least parts of it. In 1852, he published his Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases, which is still in use today. Over the years, Roget's publication has been a lifesaver for writers trying to avoid overusing the same words. And oddly enough, the word “thesaurus” is derived from the Greek word for “treasure.” Others have published thesauri over the years, but on National Thesaurus Day we celebrate the original tome. Marlo: Did you say tomb? Anna: No, no, no, no; "tome." You know, like the writing or the publication. Marlo: Oh, okay I got you. John: Is a "thesauri" a kind of dinosaur? Marlo: I wonder if anyone ever went up to Peter said, "Hey, I've read your entire book!" Anna: What's another word for cretin? Marlo: Good question. Alan Alexander Milne was born on this day in 1882. His father ran a private school where one of Alan's teachers was H.G. Wells. The boy would grow up to be an author himself, though not in the science fiction genre favored by his teacher. Alan tried his hand at playwriting but found his true calling in children's books. Inspired by visits to the London Zoo, he discovered his most loveable character through a black bear named Winnie. His son, Christopher Robin named his own teddy bear Winnie and the charm of this 1926 series was born. Today the books have been translated into more than 50 languages! On National Winnie the Pooh Day we celebrate the classic legacy of the gentle adventures in the Hundred Acre Woods. I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson. Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day!  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
