689. We talk to Amanda Skenadore about her novel on the Carville Leprosy Colony, The Second Life of Mirielle West. Amanda Skenandore is a registered nurse turned historical fiction author whose medical background deeply shapes her storytelling. In her novel The Second Life of Mirielle West, she takes listeners into 1920s America to follow a Hollywood socialite whose life is upended when a diagnosis of leprosy forces her into exile at Carville, Louisiana — the nation's only leprosarium at the time. Blending rigorous medical history with emotional depth, the story explores one woman's fight against systemic isolation and social stigma as she seeks purpose, belonging, and redemption in the most unexpected place.  Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Gaspar Cusachs. "Lafitte: The Louisiana Pirate and Patriot." Here in Barataria, amid the innumerable branches of bayous, passes, and inextricable cypress swamps, persons may lie concealed from the strictest scrutiny. In 1811, Lafitte fortified the eastern and western points of this island, and established a regular depot. Here the prizes were brought and sold to the inhabitants of the adjoining districts, who resorted to these places for the purpose of obtaining bargains in matters of trade and without being at all solicitous to conceal the object of their journey. No effective measures having been taken to expel the pirates they continued their depredations upon the Spanish commerce and sometimes ventured to attack vessels of other nations. They were generally regarded as pirates, but it is probable that most, if not all of them, were commissioned by the Carthagenian government. This week in Louisiana history. July 31 1976. U.S. Rep.

She Invented Lisa to Hide Her Second LifeNEW PODCAST ALERT!

260729PC Wir sind satt und träge und krank Mensch Mahler am 29.7.2026In unserer Nachbarschaft fährt ein 2-jähriger Junge mit einem Elektro-Auto durch die Gegend. Sein Papa ist mächtig stolz auf ihn. Ich hätte einen Bobby-Car oder eine Seifenkiste geiler gefunden. Wenn ich durch die Stadt radle, kommen mir immer mehr Teenies auf Elektrorollern entgegen. Oft zu zweit und nicht selten gut gebaut bis adipös. Ein ganz normales Bio-Bike – was ist dagegen einzuwenden? Ich weiß, das ist uncool. Das ist gestrig. Aber: für die Gesundheit wärs schon klasse … Ich frag mich oft, was die Volkskrankheit Nummer 1 ist. Hochdruck? Übergewicht? Diabetes? Alkohol und Drogen? Krebs? Arthrose? Weit gefehlt. Sie werden es schon ahnen: Die Volkskrankheit Nummer 1 ist die Maßlosigkeit. Und die Faulheit. Im rechten Maß genossen ist alles ein Mittel zum Leben, zur Lebensfreude. Im Übermaß haben wir die Probleme. To use heißt gebrauchen. Abuse heißt Missbrauch. Fazit: Viele der jungen Leute leben nicht wirklich. Second Life am Handy, Computerbildschirm statt echten Erlebnissen, Fast Food im Übermaß statt gesundem Essen, auf der Couch lümmeln statt laufen oder wenigstens radeln, Elektroantrieb statt Muskeleinsatz. Das kann nur schiefgehen. Und es geht schief. Schon lange. Unser Gesundheitssystem kollabiert. Und ganz ehrlich: ich möchte niemanden verurteilen. Aber wenn ich übergewichtige Menschen, die sich nicht bewegen und nur irgendwelches Zeug in sich hineinstopfen oder -leeren, dann kommen mir seltsame Gedanken. Vor allem dann, wenn diese Menschen jammern, wie schlecht es ihnen geht und wie wenig die Gesellschaft für sie tut. Seit dem alten Rom gibt es einen Begriff dafür: Dekadenz. Wir sind gerade dabei, uns genauso abzuschaffen wie die alten Römerinnen und Römer. Und da ich weit davon entfernt bin, Jugend-Bashing zu betreiben: Die Kids von heute sind unsere Produkte. Wir haben doch den Hals auch nicht voll gekriegt und wollten immer mehr. Ist das angekommen, Digga? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

You guys, summer is running me over, anyone else? Kids are home, my schedule is a mess, and if you're anything like me, keeping up with your health goals feels like just one more thing on an already overflowing plate. But here's what I've realized this season: the moms who actually keep their results long term aren't the ones white knuckling it through some extreme plan. They're the ones who've built a sustainable weight loss routine for moms that can flex when life gets full, not one that falls apart the second things get hard. In this episode, I'm getting real about what's been on my mind lately, from what it actually takes to build habits that stick, to a mindset shift that changed the way I think about weight loss altogether. I'm also sharing something personal from my years working in a bariatric clinic that completely reshaped how I coach my clients today. If you've ever lost weight and gained it back (more than once), or if you feel like you were never taught what a healthy lifestyle even looks like, this one is for you. I promise, you can build this. It just doesn't happen overnight, and I want to walk you through how. -Rachel Next Steps: Meal Planning on Autopilot Starter Kit Chat with me by booking a Free Discover Call

Co Host Ryan Hurd (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/luciddreaming) My first-time guest is a dream researcher and educator with dreamstudies.org. What if you had a sandbox for practicing with women...with zero real-life consequences? And what if you didn't have to find ANY new time in your busy schedule for it? I mean it sounds crazy, but if you could open up those hours of built-in "downtime" in human existence when you're asleep to get better with women, what would the ramifications be? I mean, it's not like you'd be too busy to get to it. After all, you're asleep. What we're talking about here is learning the art (and science) of lucid dreaming, and harnessing the skill to go anywhere, meet anyone, and do anything...all while you're asleep. So what is lucid dreaming, anyway? How do you learn it? And what exactly can you be capable of in your dream world? Obviously, the potential for practicing skills with women in a "sandbox" with zero real-world impact should be intriguing to any man. But how does what happens in your dreams actually translate to real-world results with women? And what are some of the unexpected positive consequences? What else can lucid dreaming be used to get better at? Can you build neighborhoods and sort of an entire Roblox or Second Life kind of existence in your dream world that you can return to again and again...even with the same women? What are some of the most outlandish ways lucid dreaming can improve your overall quality of life? And is flying better than sex?

Tim Tweet went down on a motorcycle at 120 miles an hour and slipped into a coma for three months. Inside that coma, he did not see darkness. He lived an entire life. Thirty-eight years as a man named Jason Scarborough. He grew up in Montana, married a woman named Nancy, raised kids, and flew helicopters in the Korean War. He even shared a beer with a young pilot who turned out to be his own grandfather. Then he woke up, unable to walk or talk, and had to decide which life was the real one.Here is the part that will keep you up at night. Tim came back knowing things he had never learned. Woodworking. Engine repair. Knots he cannot explain. A helicopter instructor swore he had flown before. Tim is a skeptic, and he still cannot account for it. The crew pulls the story into everything from the Matrix to near-death experiences to the future of memory itself. This is one of the strangest and unique accounts we have ever heard on the show.

You might've seen that I have a new video up on YouTube this week — it's about the long hard fight for marriage equality, and how some Hollywood icons got involved in the cause. The battle for the freedom to marry has been very much on my mind lately, so I wanted to revisit an interview from 2022 with Chris Geidner. You may know Chris for his day job, reporting and writing on some of the most pressing legal issues of the day — including his expert attention to all matters Supreme Court. But he's just as passionate about musical theater, going all the way back to the time he was enthralled by Phantom of the Opera. In fact, it was one little twist of fate that led him to a legal career instead of a life in the theater — but, as he discovered, the two careers aren't as different as one might think.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down for an in-depth conversation with one of the most iconic figures of the 1990s, multi-platinum recording artist Rob Van Winkle, better known as Vanilla Ice. After being raised in the Dallas, Texas area, Rob found his way into the drastically different worlds of motocross racing and breakdancing. These uncommon interests helped fuel a competitive nature in his teenage years, and he would soon pivot to an interest in poetry and hip hop. Rob explains that he developed performing skills at a local mall where he'd breakdance and freestyle rap for shoppers and onlookers. His dancing abilities and daredevil nature would eventually land him on stage at a local hip hop nightclub in Dallas called City Lights, where he won over the club's management and audiences alike. Rob would sign on with a manager and record label and record his iconic song “Ice Ice Baby”, which he had originally penned at age 16. By age 20, he had sold six million records and had the best-selling hip hop recording at that time. But international stardom had its price, and Rob fell into the clutches of drug abuse and was taken advantage of by several professionals around him, including his old record label. Rob would step away from the music industry for some time and thrust himself into the world of real estate, where he discovered a love for home renovation. This passion would eventually morph into the long-running television show “The Vanilla Ice Project”, which he reveals was just recently picked up by HBO. Dale and Rob's conversation covers his redemption arc, his wild car collection, which includes a 1970s Dale Earnhardt Sr. dirt car, and how the rewards of fatherhood outweigh the riches of fame.

Welcome to Season 6, Episode 21! Erin Entrada Kelly is a multiple award-winning Filipino American author best known for her emotionally honest and deeply relatable novels for middle grade and young adult readers. Born in Louisiana to a Filipino mother, Kelly often draws from her own experiences growing up between cultures. She uses humor, vulnerability, and empathy to explore what it means to search for identity and belonging. Before becoming a full-time author, she worked as a journalist and magazine editor, experiences that helped shape her sharp dialogue and realistic characters. The Second Life of Snap is a middle grade science fiction novel that was released on May 12, 2026, from Greenwillow Books. The story follows twelve-year-old Zuzu Santos, who lives with her friends in a struggling, drought-ridden community controlled by a powerful corporation in a near-future world shaped by climate change. After Zuzu's father loses his job, the family receives an outdated guardian robot named Snap instead of proper severance support. Although Zuzu is initially suspicious of robots, she slowly forms a deep bond with Snap as his battery life begins to run out. The novel blends themes of friendship, survival, inequality, climate anxiety, and humanity's relationship with technology, while still maintaining the warmth and emotional depth Kelly is known for. Erin is a New York Times bestselling author and has been honored by industry experts, her peers, and the readers multiple times, including the 2025 Newbery Medal for The First State of Being, 2018 Newbery Medal for Hello, Universe, a 2021 Newbery Honor for We Dream of Space, the 2023 NAIBA Book of the Year Award for Those Kids From Fawn Creek, and the 2017 APALA Award for The Land of Forgotten Girls, among many other honors. In our conversation, Erin shares a little about her journey to becoming an award-winning author, how winning multiple awards impacts her mindset, her background in Louisiana and how it shapes her work, what she hopes readers discuss and consider when it comes to technology, the considerations when writing about serious topics, and so much more.  To learn more about Erin, you can visit her website erinentradakelly.com, follow her on instagram @erinentrada, and of course purchase The Second Life of Snap or any of her other work.  If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

Dr. Cristina LePort, a cardiologist who practiced medicine for over thirty years, joins host Sana for a candid conversation about reinvention, the courage it takes to begin again, and what it really means to evolve. Through her story, from growing up in Italy hating to write, to emigrating to America, to spending years collecting rejection letters before becoming a traditionally published medical thriller author, Cristina offers something rare: an honest, unhurried account of what following your curiosity actually costs, and why it is almost always worth it. About the Guest: Dr. Cristina LePort was born in Bologna, Italy, attended medical school at the University of Bologna, and completed her Internal Medicine residency and Cardiology fellowship in the United States. She practiced medicine for over thirty years before retiring in 2023 to become a full-time author. She is the Amazon bestselling author of the medical thrillers Dissection and Change of Heart, and her upcoming novel Defrosted has earned a rare Kirkus Review star. Key Takeaways: The things you hate at one point in your life can become the very things that set you free. Cristina hated writing as a child because she had to write what others told her to. As an author, she writes whatever she imagines. That shift from assignment to autonomy changed everything. Reinvention doesn't have to mean abandoning who you are. Cristina didn't leave medicine behind. She brought it with her into her fiction. Her medical knowledge is the foundation of every thriller she writes, including the high-stakes pacing, the diagnostic thinking, and the weight of life-and-death decisions. Rejection at scale is part of the creative path. Getting published traditionally means entering a world where only about 2% of manuscripts find a home. Cristina received hundreds of rejections. Her response each time was to go home and write something new. The waiting period produced three to four novels. You cannot survive the creative journey on talent alone. You need resilience. Writing coaches, editors, publicists, literary agents: Cristina invested in every layer of support available to her. Asking for help is not weakness in the creative world. It is strategy. Evolution is not optional. It is survival. Staying in a version of your life that has exhausted its purpose is its own kind of stagnation. Cristina left a career she loved because she could feel it had given her what it had to give. Knowing when to move is as important as knowing how. The purpose of a book is to complete a circle between the author and the reader. You begin with an idea, you build the world, and the reader arrives at your original meaning on their own terms. That connection, stranger to stranger through story, is what makes all the difficulty worthwhile.

In an episode recorded live in Bristol, Simon and Rachel speak with the children's author Michael Morpurgo. A former primary-school teacher, Michael has written over 150 books, including "Private Peaceful", "Kensuke's Kingdom" and "The Butterfly Lion". "War Horse", first published in 1982, later became a hugely successful production from the National Theatre and then, in 2011, a film directed by Steven Spielberg. Michael was appointed Children's Laureate in 2003, a post he previously helped to set up with Ted Hughes in 1999. With his wife Clare, he also set up the charity Farms for City Children in 1976, which offers children and teachers from inner-city primary schools the chance to live and work in the countryside for a week on one of the charity's three farms in Devon, Gloucestershire and Wales. We spoke to Michael about moving from teaching children to writing for them, the origin of the "War Horse" phenomenon, and his new book, "Funny Thing, Getting Older".  In addition to the standard audio format, the podcast is now available in video.

The Today in Manufacturing Podcast is brought to you by the editors of Manufacturing.net and Industrial Equipment News (IEN).This week's episode is brought to you by Loadsmart. Manufacturers are losing time and money managing freight modes in silos. Full truck load decisions happen in one workflow, less-than-truckload in another, and intermodal somewhere else entirely. The result is disconnected planning and hidden or obvious costs that quietly compound over timeManufacturers who unify their mode management under a single platform don't simply save money. They gain a strategic advantage over competitors.

Season 27 @TalkArt continues with TRACEY EMIN. Hosted by @RobertDiament. An exclusive new interview recorded in Margate within Crossing Into Darkness, a group exhibition curated by Dame Tracey Emin including works by 21 international artists.Crossing Into Darkness brings together a group of artists whose works confront the darkness inherent in human experience, not as something to be feared but as a necessary threshold toward renewal. In times marked by upheaval and uncertainty, this journey feels both universal and deeply personal.Featuring works by David Altmejd, Georg Baselitz, Louise Bourgeois, Marlene Dumas, Tracey Emin, Laura Footes, Antony Gormley, Francisco Goya, Gilbert & George, Celia Hempton, Anselm Kiefer, Joline Kwakkenbos, Mark Manders, Danielle Mckinney, Lindsey Mendick, Juanita McNeely, Edvard Munch, Hermann Nitsch, Janice Nowinski, Anna Pakosz and Johnnie Shand Kydd.The title of the show is very self explanatory, especially for the times we are living in. But even so we have always had our own journeys. And I feel that we have to cross into darkness to find light. I'd like this show to be very emotionally immersive and people to feel the strength and vibrations within the works. I want people to know that art isn't just something that you look at. That it has a deeper purpose and can penetrate all souls. I love the idea of people coming to Margate on the greyest of winter days with gale force winds and crashing waves to make the pilgrimage to see the show.– Dame Tracey EminFollow @TraceyEminStudioSpecial thanks to @CarlFreedmanGalleryThis powerful group show runs until Sunday 12th April at Carl Freedman Gallery, Margate. Free entry, no booking required.Tracey Emin's major solo exhibition A Second Life runs until Sunday 31st August 2026 at Tate Modern, London. Tickets available from Tate. Hosted on Acast.
