It's time to dig into the end of Thornton Wilder's lovely novel and in this episode we're discussing the impact (and epilogue-like nature) of the final chapter, the spiritual contemplations inherent in the narrative, the way Wilder manages to say something powerful about the nature of love, and much more. Happy listening!Video editionA quick note on video: some listeners have requested that we post videos of the show. We're open to this and will try it, since it does seem to be the future of podcasting, whatever that means. But many video podcasts can get quite performative; video can change the tone of a show. After all, it's weird to sit and look into the camera; it's weird to be conscious of the fact that people are watching you have a conversation as opposed to just listening to it. Some people get anxious about lighting and hair and makeup and all that. We aren't going to worry about any of that. We are just going to post our Zoom calls as they are.

California has more unrecognized Native tribes than any other state - what led to this strange state of affairs, and what does this mean in practice?  In Unrecognized in California: Federal Acknowledgment and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (U Washington Press, 2024), San Diego State associate professor Olivia Chilcote answers these questions through the history and experience of her own tribe. Despite the inherent tribal sovereignty of the San Luis Rey Band, and indeed, of all Native tribes and nations, the long and difficult past of colonialism in California - from the Spanish, to the Mexican, to the American empires - has provided an array of obstacles to the acquisition of land and tribal recognition for the San Luis Rey Band and others. This unrecognized status has kept them from accessing several programs and protections, including NAGPRA. Yet, despite these headwinds, the San Luis Rey Band and other unrecognized California tribes nonetheless practice sovereignty in other ways, and in doing so continue to fight toward future recognition. In this very personal history, Chilcote explains how the government-to-government relationship between the United States and tribal nations creates both challenges and opportunities for Native people in the twenty first century.

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: voicesoftoday.net/sanluis The Bridge of San Luis Rey By Thornton Wilder Narrated by Gary D. MacFadden Five people are killed when a heavily traveled rope bridge in Peru collapses. Brother Juniper, a Franciscan friar, witnesses this event and this sets him on a quest: Who were each of these individuals? Why do unfortunate events happen to innocent or undeserving people? What led to these people being on the bridge at the fateful moment? While many view this novel as a serious reflection on life, death, and love, this narration highlights Wilder's tongue-in-cheek stance, suggesting the author used humor, irony, and even sarcasm to examine faith, fate, and chance. Throughout the story, Wilder unleashes gentle sarcasm on the Catholic Church, the Peruvian administration, and Spanish American culture in general. In 1998 The Bridge of San Luis Rey was selected by the editorial board of the American Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of the twentieth century. Originally published in 1927.

Go to http://classictalesaudiobooks.com and become a financial supporter today. Thank you so much. Thornton Wilder won two Pulitzer Prizes: one for the novel we'll begin today: The Bridge of San Luis Rey, and another for his play: Our Town. In The Bridge of San Luis Rey, Brother Juniper witnesses the tragedy of five people falling to their deaths when a bridge collapses in Peru. He takes it upon himself to study the lives of those who fell in the accident, in an effort to figure out why these five people had to die. In 1998, the book was selected by the American Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of the twentieth century. It has also been hinted that this book is the progenitor of the modern-day disaster epic, where a single disaster intertwines the lives of the victims, whose previous histories are then explored through a series of flashbacks.   British Prime Minister Tony Blair quoted the final words of the book in a memorial service for the victims of the September 11th attacks. Nine days after the attacks, he read: "A witness to the deaths, wanting to make sense of them and explain the ways of God to his fellow human beings, examined the lives of the people who died, and these words were said by someone who knew the victims, and who had been through the many emotions, and the many stages, of bereavement and loss. "But soon we will die, and all memories of those five will have left earth, and we ourselves shall be loved for a while and forgotten. But the love will have been enough; all those impulses of love return to the love that made them. Even memory is not necessary for love. There is a land of the living and a land of the dead, and the bridge is love. The only survival, the only meaning."

Evangelio según san Mateo 24, 42-51 En aquel tiempo, Jesús dijo a sus discípulos: “Velen y estén preparados, porque no saben qué día va a venir su Señor. Tengan por cierto que si un padre de familia supiera a qué hora va a venir el ladrón, estaría vigilando y no dejaría que se le metiera por un boquete en su casa. También ustedes estén preparados, porque a la hora en que menos lo piensen, vendrá el Hijo del hombre. Fíjense en un servidor fiel y prudente, a quien su amo nombró encargado de toda la servidumbre para que le proporcionara oportunamente el alimento. Dichoso ese servidor, si al regresar su amo, lo encuentra cumpliendo con su deber. Yo les aseguro que le encargará la administración de todos sus bienes. Pero si el servidor es un malvado, y pensando que su amo tardará, se pone a golpear a sus compañeros, a comer y emborracharse, vendrá su amo el día menos pensado, a una hora imprevista, lo castigará severamente y lo hará correr la misma suerte de los hipócritas. Entonces todo será llanto y desesperación''

San Luis Rey de Francia logró unir el anhelo de la santidad con su cargo como gobernante. Nacido en 1214, heredó la corona a los 12 años, tras la muerte de su padre. Su madre, Doña Blanca de Castilla es quien lo forma, tanto en la vida de Fe, como en las obligaciones políticas que debe asumir como rey. Encarnó el modelo de caballero cristiano, defendiendo celosamente la Fe Católica y a la Iglesia, sin dejar de preocuparse por los más necesitados.Alcanzó, además de los altares, el crecimiento del bienestar en su pueblo. Es ejemplo claro de cómo un gobernante que pone a Dios como centro, logra ordenar, no sólo su vida, sino también la sociedad en que gobierna.

Lo mismo vosotros, por fuera parecéis justos ante los hombres, pero por dentro estáis llenos de hipocresía y de iniquidad”. “¡Ay de vosotros, escribas y fariseos, hipócritas! porque reedificáis los sepulcros de los profetas, y adornáis los monumentos de los justos; y decís: “Si nosotros hubiésemos vivido en el tiempo de nuestros padres, no habríamos participado con ellos en el asesinato de los profetas”. Con esto, confesáis que sois hijos de los que mataron a los profetas. ¡Colmad, pues, vosotros la medida de vuestros padres!”

Intro.(1:25) - Start of interview.(2:14) - Maureen's "origin story".(3:00) - Why she focused on WeWork as the subject of her book "The Cult of We" with her WSJ colleague Eliot Brown. She took over the IPO beat at the WSJ in 2016, "when there were almost no IPOs." Tech companies were staying private for longer with a ton of capital flowing into the private markets. That's when she started following high flying unicorns such as Uber, Airbnb, Lyft and WeWork. "But I always heard things that were a little crazier about WeWork, a little more confusing, a lot of crazy stories about Adam Neumann, so it was always high in my radar, and then in 2019 came the IPO that wasn't."(4:39) - Discussion around the concept of "growth at all costs." "It's the driver of this story."(7:23) - Discussion around the concept of "the cult of the founder." How Adam Neumann was able to cash out around ~$500 million throughout the financing rounds (pre-exit), in addition to getting another ~$500 million in loans from banks. Her original article from July of 2019 uncovering "how Adam Neumann cashed out at least ~$700 million in sales and loans (from JPM, Credit Suisse and UBS)."(13:21) - The unusual co-founder arrangement between Adam Neumann (getting 83%) and Miguel McKelvey via WeHoldings LLC.(14:59) - Discussion around the ethos of Silicon Valley, culture mantra, corporate purpose, mission statements such as WeWork's "to elevate the world's consciousness", sustainability and ESG, and how WeWork co-opted many of these concepts.(19:33) - Discussion around the failure of gatekeepers and how mutual funds (such as T Rowe Price and Fidelity) and other sophisticated investors had FOMO and "aped" into WeWork at record high valuations.(23:52) - Discussion around Masoyoshi Son, Softbank's Vision Fund and how Masa invested and influenced the outcome of Adam Neumann and WeWork.(23:33) - How she and her co-author came up with a shorthand to think about Adam Neumann: a magician.(26:28) - Discussion around the board of directors of WeWork.(30:28) - Discussion around dual-class share structures and founder control. How WeWork's IPO decision was a way to clean up the company's corporate governance.(36:49) - WeWork's failed IPO, the fall of Adam Neumann (walking away with ~$2 billion...). Litigation outcome and Adam's current status.(43:31) - The books that have greatly influenced her life:The Bridge of San Luis Rey (1927), by Thornton Wilder.Say Nothing (2018), by Patrick Radden Keefe.Bad Blood (2018), by John Carreyrou.(47:46) - Her mentors: "In terms of journalism, it's important to have mentors but you also need to forge bonds with peers who can also become lifelong mentors."(49:15) - An unusual or absurd habit that she loves: watching bad TV with her daughters! (Hey Dude, Nickelodeon).(49:57) - The living person she most admires: (politics aside) Jimmy Carter.(52:14) - The WeWork movie (Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway will play Adam Neumann and Rebecca Neumann)Maureen Farrell is one of the co-authors of the bestselling book "The Cult of We: WeWork, Adam Neumann and the Great Startup Delusion", the definitive inside story of WeWork and Adam Neumann.

In this special celebratory episode, your twin hosts Jude and John Lovell reflect back on the first year of the Book XChange podcast: what it's meant to us, and what we hope to continue to do with it going forward. And in a nod to the unique "hook" of our show, that is, identical twins reflecting on books and reading... we tackle books that feature, or are in some way about, twins and the phenomenon of "twinhood." Good twins, evil twins, estranged or missing or lost twins, damaged twins, "midnight twins"... there are so many great myths, novels and plays that explore the compelling and fascinating nature of this mysterious bond. We bring our own personal perspective of having lived for 50+ years as genetic duplicates to these books and stories, and unpack what each of them get right, exaggerate, and even illuminate for those who lead what you might quite accurately call "a double life." Whether you are a twin, a parent of twins, are related to a set or know some in your circle of friends/associates, this episode may have you thinking about their lived experience in a different way.

Stu Levitan welcomes Howard Sherman, author of Another Day's Begun: Thornton Wilder's Our Town in the 21st Century as we add a new category – books about plays by Madison playwrights. That's right, Thornton Wilder – the only person to receive Pulitzer Prizes for both Drama and the Novel – was born right here in Madison in 1897, when his father Amos was the progressive editor/publisher of the Wisconsin State Journal for 12 years before moving to Hong Kong as US Consul General in 1906. Our Town is an odd play, with neither conventional plot nor even linear narrative, just snapshots of some of the 2,642 residents of Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, especially Emily Webb, George Gibbs, and their families. Their growing up, their marrying, their living, their dying. By Wilder's stage direction, the play is to be performed with no curtain, no scenery, and no props, save for a table, some chairs, and two ladders. The lead character doesn't even have a name, but is just called the Stage Manager, speaking directly to the audience and rarely interacting with the rest of the cast. It was a piece of meta-theatre 25 years before that term even existed. Despite what he had the Stage Manager say, it was not, Wilder later wrote, meant to be understood as a picture of life in a New Hampshire village; or as an updated interpretation of Dante's Purgatory. Rather, he explained, it was “an attempt to find a value above all price for the smallest events in our daily life.” This seemingly small play has found great and lasting value ever since it opened on Broadway on February 4, 1938 and won that year's Pulitzer Prize for Drama – the first of two such awards Wilder would win, along with an earlier Pulitzer for the novel The Bridge of San Luis Rey. Decade after decade, it has been the most-produced play in America, from high schools to major professional productions on both stage and screen, featuring some of the biggest stars of their day. It's been translated into 80 languages, and produced around the world; just this month, it became the first production when the Queensland Theatre of Australia reopened after the pandemic. But what is it like to live in Grover's Corners eight times a week? What happens when you think about the Mind of God every night, and bid farewell to the living at Wednesday and weekend matinees? How do you step back in time while keeping the play relevant to the audiences of today? These are the questions which occupy Howard Sherman in Another Day's Begun, questions he sought to answer by talking to more than 100 actors and directors responsible for 13 of the most interesting and innovative productions of the past 21 years. Some are award-winning household names, like Helen Hunt and Jane Kaczmarek; others are maximum-security inmates of Sing Sing prison. And he has done the seemingly impossible – written a book about Our Town that is almost as emotionally powerful and multi-faceted as the play itself. Howard Sherman comes well-equipped to this assignment. He grew up in New Haven not far from Wilder's long-time home in Hamden, CT and has held a series of executive, managerial and public relations positions with several theatres, including the Eugene O'Neill Theater, Hartford Stage, and Westport Playhouse. From 2003 to 2011 he was Executive Director of the American Theatre Wing, the folks who bring us the Tony Awards. A frequent presenter at national conferences, he also writes a weekly column for the British magazine The Stage and is contributing editor of Stage Directions magazine. In 2014, he was cited as one of the Top 40 Free Speech Defenders by the National Coalition Against Censorship the following year received the Defender Award from Dramatists Legal Defense Fund. And this month he celebrates his sixth anniversary as director of the Arts Integrity Initiative at The New School for Drama. It is a pleasure to welcome to Madison Bookbeat, Howard Sherman.

Every writer craves that high concept idea that leads to the breakout book, or in this case breakout series.

En una de las finales más disputadas de los últimos años, en la que Italia, Suecia y Rusia han estado bastante igualados en las votaciones, finalmente el cantante sueco Måns Zelmerlöw ha ganado el Festival de Eurovisión 2015 con la canción "Heroes". Se trata de la sexta vez que Suecia gana el Festival de Eurovisión, después de Loreen (2012), Charlotte Nilsson (1999), Carola (1991), Hermanos Herreys (1984) y Abba (1974 con "Waterloo"). A sus 28 años, Måns Zelmerlöw ha hecho realidad uno de sus mayores sueños: ganar el Festival de Eurovisión. Y lo ha hecho con la satisfacción de ser el gran favorito desde que el pasado 14 de marzo ganara el Melodifestivalen con "Heroes"y consiguiera así el pasaporte para representar a Suecia en Eurovisión. El cantante siempre ha explicado que esta canción con influencias electrónicas y estribillo pegadizo habla de los problemas que tenía para hacer amigos cuando era un niño. Pero la verdadera fuerza de esta canción, lo que de verdad le ha hecho ganar el Festival, está en su puesta en escena, en la que el cantante interactúa con una imágenes proyectadas.

Y en el caso de la principal actividad productiva del municipio miranda que es la producción de arroz se verá paralizada para los próximos ciclos de norte verano ya que no se contara con el preciado líquido haciendo que la región sea improductiva y merme su economía. La situación es altamente grave por lo que desde esta ventana hago un llamado de alerta ante este drama social para que las autoridades competentes se aboquen a tratar de buscar soluciones o alternativas ante la problemática que afecta a la población del municipio Miranda.

The Cigar of the Week is the Trilogy Native Cameroon Torpedo – 6.125” x 52 Some of you may recall that the Trilogy was first introduced as a 3 sided, or tri-pressed cigar in 2002. After 2004, the tri-pressed shape was replaced with traditional parejo and torpedo shapes, as the tri-pressed design did not appeal to consumers despite rave reviews for the cigar. Now available in Robusto, Churchill and Torpedo shapes in boxes of 20 cigars, the Alec Bradley Trilogy is a sleeper premium cigar priced for every day enjoyment. The Trilogy line is available in 3 different blends: the Authentic Corojo , Exotic Maduro and the Native Cameroon Torpedo that we are featuring this month. The Authentic Corojo is manufactured by Tobacos Puros de Nicaragua while the Exotic Maduro, and Genuine Cameroon, are manufactured by Carlos Torano in Honduras. The unique blend in the Cameroon is the result of using a rich and spicy African Cameroon wrapper paired with a Honduran binder and a filler blend of Nicaraguan and Italian tobaccos. Bob Smokes a 4 year old original three sided pressing of the same named cigar from Alec Bradley. See how they compare. We have an interesting email from Dave with a tough experience from one of our bonus cigars. Robert Spoden of Bucanero Cigars sits down with Bob for an interview - we run a short piece tonight. The full interview is available as episode #005 in the Cigars One-To-One lineup. What's my Band? Bob smokes a Gran Habano Corojo #5 Lancero, Dale smokes a Cusano Corojo Toro. On the Dark Side - Marca - Saint Luis Rey, Frontmark - Regios, Vitola - Hermoso No. 4, Box code GTL May 07, 127 mm (5.0") x 48 ring gauge - The Saint Luis Rey brand was created in between 1938 & 1940 and is noted as leaning towards the lighter side in strength. The Regios has a reputation for smoking good while young and reaching most of it's potential in just a few short years. Saint Luis Rey is one of the pre-revolution brands that exemplify what cuban cigars re all about. A full bodied cigar developed in 1938 by the British firm Zamora y Guerra. Some say that its name was taken from a Thornton Wilder play “The Bridge of San Luis Rey”, which was popular at the time. However it is more likely that it refers to the town of San Luis in the heart of the Vuelta Abajo tobacco region, which is particularly famous for the superb wrapper leaves produced there. Whatever the truth may be Saint Luis Rey cigars enjoy a reputation among cigars lovers for the intensity of their flavour throughout the range. They are made with leaves from the Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta regions. What Else have the DWCR guys been smokin'? Camacho Corojo Maduro, Illusione Epernay, Cusano 18 Maduro, Sabor Cubana Robusto, Buchanero Booty Maduro. The winner of the one year subscription to European Cigar Cult Journal is Daniel Claque.
