Podcast appearances and mentions of Salman Rushdie

Our exit today has us being recognized for that one hit wonder we wrote in the 80s. This week, we are talking about Bridget Jones's Diary, written by Helen Fielding, Andrew Davies, and Richard Curtis, and directed by Sharon Maguire. Along with debating the dreamiest Mr. Darcy, we talk casting rumors, belated sequels, soundtracks, the year of Jim Broadbent, Austen adaptations, the allure of Hugh Grant, accents, Salman Rushdie, uncomfortable humor, and Mission Impossible.Theme music by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CFF Films⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Ross and friends.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies We've Covered on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies Recommended on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.

In this episode of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff speaks with Sarah Schwarzschild, COO of Mavik Capital, to explore what operational alpha looks like inside a high-performing real estate investment firm. With experience spanning investment banking, secondaries, and platform leadership, Sarah brings a unique lens to how strategy, culture, and execution intersect in private markets. They dive into how Mavik has structured itself for speed, collaboration, and long-term performance—from flat organizational design to real-time data feedback loops. Sarah shares her approach to building systems that reduce friction, unlock better decision-making, and ensure every team member—from assistants to senior investors—has direct alignment through carried interest. They also discuss: - How Mavik balances flexibility with discipline in its investment process - The firm's unique capital strategy, including accordion-style fund sizing - Why Sarah believes in weekly feedback, habit tracking, and prioritization as leadership tools - Building an internal culture of experimentation, iteration, and psychological safety - Why operational excellence is a source of alpha, not just back-office hygiene - How technology, automation, and data scraping will define the next generation of investment managers This episode is a masterclass in applying startup principles inside a real estate investment platform—ideal for any leader thinking about how to build with intention.

Join Raza Ahmed and Danayal Zia for Friday's show from 4-6pm where will be discussing :´Palestinian Press and Allegations Answered: Satanic Verses Part 2' Palestinian Press Join us ahead of World Press Freedom Dy as we shed light on the deliberate targeting and killing of Palestinian journalists. These are not accidents of war, but calculated attempts to extinguish eyewitness testimony. Tune in to find out the reason behind the systematic silencing of these truth tellers. Allegations Answered: Satanic Verses Part 2 Is Islamic teaching arbitrary and intrusive? Are Muslims typically violent and fanatical? These are the two specific criticisms from Salman Rushdie's The Satanic Verses that we would like to explore today. Where do these impressions come from? Do they reflect the true teachings of Islam as found in the Holy Quran? What of the life of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be on him)? Join us as we go on to consider the role of Islamic guidance and how Muslims should be adopting them to promote the peacefulness inherent in Islamic practice. Guests : Mazin Qumsiyeh (Palestinian scientist, author, and activist) Producers : Zohra Mobashir and Nabeela Shah

Award-winning author, founder, and editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Review of Books, Tom Lutz, took a timeout to talk with me about his early years as a literary ne'er-do-well, what it's like to hang out with your heroes, and why you can assume every writer is faking it just a little bit. "Writing has never felt like a chore to me. It always feels like the space of freedom, and that I'm stealing the time from my job to do something I love." – Tom Lutz In addition to editing the Los Angeles Review of Books, "... a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting and disseminating ... engaging writing on every aspect of literature, culture, and the arts," Tom also founded The LARB Radio Hour, The LARB Quarterly Journal, The LARB/USC Publishing Workshop, and LARB Books. He's a Distinguished Professor of Creative Writing at UC Riverside, and the author of multiple bestselling and award-winning nonfiction titles – translated into dozens of languages – including Doing Nothing (American Book Award winner), Crying, and American Nervousness, 1903 (both New York Times Notables). His fiction debut is, “A literary thriller that wanders the globe,” novel Born Slippy is described as part "... literary thriller, noir and political satire ... a darkly comic and honest meditation on modern life under global capitalism.” Bestselling novelist James Ellroy said of the book, "Lutz has the seven deadly sins nailed and rethought for our 2020 world. You've got to dig this book!" Tom's writing has appeared in The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, New Republic, Chicago Tribune, ZYZZYVA, and many other newspapers and literary venues, as well as in dozens of books and academic journals. He previously taught at Stanford University, University of Iowa, CalArts, and the University of Copenhagen.

ÍSAT stendur fyrir námsgreinina íslenska sem annað tungumál og markmið þess var að útbúa verkefni, leiðbeiningar, áætlanir, námsmat og ýmislegt fleira til að kennarar hefðu fleiri verkfæri og tól til þess að kenna íslensku sem annað mál. Þær Erla Guðrún Gísladóttir verkefnisstjóri verkefnisins og Heiðrún Ólöf Jónsdóttir kennari komu í þáttinn í dag. Hvað er næringarleg streita og hvernig er gott að bregðast við henni? Lítið er fjallað um þetta í öllu tali um streitu og Tekla Hrund Karlsdóttir læknir er að skoða sérstaklega hvernig streitan hefur áhrif á konur. Hún segir líkamskerfi kvenna svara umhverfisáreiti miklu meira og þær séu hreinlega viðkvæmari fyrir flóknari veikindum á borð við langvinnum covid einkennu,, potts, ME, vefjagigt, umhverfisóþoli og kulnun. Konur séu oft undir það miklu álagi að það bitnar á réttri næringarinntöku og vatnsneyslu. Tekla stofnaði sína eigin stofu, sem kallast SoundHealth, ásamt eiginmanni sínum, Kjartani Hrafni Loftssyni lækni, til að verja meiri tíma með sjúklingum sínum og leita lausna við einkennum sem oft fá ekki mikla meðhöndlun og greiningu í heilbrigðiskerfinu. Helga Arnardóttir talaði við Teklu Hrund á Heilsuvaktinni í dag. Lesandi vikunnar í Mannlega þættinum í dag var svo Urður Gunnarsdóttir, verkefnastjóri, en hún vinnur að atvinnu- og byggðaþróun, markaðsmálum og öðru tilfallandi og býr austur í Fljótsdal. Við fengum að vita hvaða bækur hún hefur verið að lesa undanfarið og hvaða bækur og höfundar hafa haft mest áhrif á hana í gegnum tíðina. Urður talaði um eftirfarandi bækur og höfunda: Strá fyrir Straumi – Sigríður Pálsdóttir e. Erlu Huldu Halldórsdóttur Hnífur e. Salman Rushdie Í skugga trjánna e.

AP correspondent Marcela Sanchez reports on author Salman Rushdie's latest work of fiction, his first since he was stabbed three years ago.

Harun Aur Kahaniyo Ka Samunder by Salman Rushdie (1990) vs The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster (1961)

De Amsterdamse Safae el Khannoussi debuteerde met Oroppa, een vertelling over de kant van Europa die voor de meesten onzichtbaar blijft. Oroppa gaat over hoe macht mensen dingen kan laten doen waarvan ze niet wisten dat ze ertoe in staat waren. En over degenen die weigeren nog deel te nemen aan dat systeem. In onze letterenbijdrage schreef onze recensent : "Want wát een daverende debuutroman is het, waarmee Safae el Khannoussi nu de Nederlandse letteren binnenstormt, eigenzinnig en soeverein – niet zozeer met een ambitie waarvan je je nog maar afvraagt of ze die waarmaakt, maar alsof deze schrijver nooit anders heeft gedaan. Oroppa is een boek dat op geen ander boek lijkt. Het doet hoogstens denken aan de narratieve fragmentatiebommen van Salman Rushdie." Bij de Boon hoort een publieksprijs.

Salman Rushdie has been getting death threats for more than 35 years. The Indian-born British-American novelist sparked outrage with his book "The Satanic Verses" in 1988. It was declared blasphemous by many Muslims, so much so that Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa against him, calling for his death. In August 2022, the Booker Prize-winning author was stabbed multiple times on stage in New York state, leaving him blind in one eye. His attacker is now on trial for attempted murder. The book "Knife" is Rushdie's account of what happened. He spoke about the work at the 20th edition of the Hay Festival Cartagena in Colombia, where he sat down with Léa Hurel from FRANCE 24's Spanish channel.

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports on the start of the trial for a man accused of trying to kill author Salman Rushdie.

WVBR News Director Jack Donnellan sat down for a second time with author, editor, and publisher Mark Wish. Mark and his wife founded an annual short story anthology, Coolest American Stories, which pushes its contributors to make their fiction as compelling as possible, reminding them that readers crave “unputdownable” storytelling.

In 2022, the author Salman Rushdie was onstage at a public event when a man ran up and stabbed him. His new memoir, Knife, delves into that moment when Rushdie thought he was going to die — and everything that's come after, as he's healed from the attack. In today's episode, he speaks at length with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about how the miracles found in his fiction might've manifested themselves in his real life, how his wife – poet Rachel Eliza Griffiths – has helped him move forward, and how writing about that experience became a way for him to fight back.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

This week's show focuses on endings, and beginnings. Guest Zahid Rafiq, who's written a short story collection whose endings serve the stories and his characters, speaks to how he thinks about endings, including those that others might find less than satisfying. We're defending a particular type of ending, those in which writers may feel less than compelled to tie their story in a bow for readers. Brooke points to a series of YouTube shorts she did on beginnings and endings in memoir that we invite memoirists to check out, and we close the show with a Substackin' post Brooke wrote inspired by Salman Rushdie's keynote at the Kauai Writers Conference in November.

Gad Saad was born in Beirut in 1964 into one of the last Jewish families to remain in Lebanon. But the country that was once called “the Paris of the Middle East” began to turn. Saad remembers one day at school when a fellow student told his class that he wanted to be a “Jew-killer” when he grew up. The rest of the kids laughed. By 1975, Lebanon descended into a brutal civil war and Saad said death awaited him at every millisecond of the day. Even through the danger and turmoil, his family thought, This will pass over. We will be fine. Until someone showed up to their home in Lebanon to kill them, at which point his family fled the country and rebuilt their life in Canada. In 2024, many of us in Western democracies find ourselves saying the exact same things: This will pass over. We will be fine. Even as Hamas flags and “I love Hezbollah” posters wave in cosmopolitan capitals across the West. How worried should we be? And, is there a way to roll back admiration for anti-civilizational groups? Those are just some of the questions we were eager to put to Saad in today's conversation. Saad said that witnessing the Lebanese Civil War gave him a crash course in the extremes of identity politics, tribalism, and illiberalism. He argues that immigrants like himself, who have lived without the virtues of the West—freedom of speech and thought, reason, and true liberalism—uniquely understand what's at stake right now in Western cultural and political life. It's no coincidence, Saad said, that the most prominent defenders of Western ideals are immigrants, people like Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Salman Rushdie, and Masih Alinejad. Saad is a professor of marketing and evolutionary behavioral sciences, and if you're on X, we suspect you know his name. Unlike most professors, he has a million followers, and a knack for satire—so much so that Elon Musk seems to be one of his biggest fans.  Outside of his X personality, he's been teaching at Concordia University in Montreal for the past 30 years. But he's now having second thoughts. Concordia is today widely regarded as the most antisemitic university in North America. Saad is now a visiting professor and global ambassador at Northwood University in Michigan. He said he can't bear the possibility of returning to Concordia given the antisemitism on campus. All of this, he argued, constitutes another war: a campaign against logic, science, common sense, and reality here in the West, which he explains in his book: The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense.  Today, Bari Weiss asks one of the most insightful and provocative thinkers about the risks of mob rule and extremism on the left, where these “parasitic ideas” came from and why they're encouraged in the West, if progressive illiberalism is waxing or waning, and if these trends are reversible.
