Bestselling author Gail Carriger joins us on the podcast this week to discuss her writing career and her new non-fiction book, The Heroine's Journey. Gail started out as a traditionally published author, but once she got a taste of indie publishing she absolutely loved it. Her newest book, The Heroine's Journey, takes a look at the storytelling device by the same name and how it appears throughout the literary canon and pop culture.

This is a link post. to follow up my philantropic pledge from 2020, i've updated my philanthropy page with the 2024 results. in 2024 my donations funded $51M worth of endpoint grants (plus $2.0M in admin overhead and philanthropic software development). this comfortably exceeded my 2024 commitment of $42M (20k times $2100.00 — the minimum price of ETH in 2024). this also concludes my 5-year donation pledge, but of course my philanthropy continues: eg, i've already made over $4M in endpoint grants in the first quarter of 2025 (not including 2024 grants that were slow to disburse), as well as pledged at least $10M to the 2025 SFF grant round. --- First published: April 23rd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/8ojWtREJjKmyvWdDb/jaan-tallinn-s-2024-philanthropy-overview Linkpost URL:https://jaan.info/philanthropy/#2024-results --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Join the discussion as we delve into the world of fantasy fandom and explore the question: are fantasy fans too harsh on unpopular opinions? Fantasy has a dedicated and passionate fanbase. But with great passion comes great criticism, and sometimes, that criticism can be overwhelming. Are fans too quick to judge and dismiss opinions that don't align with their own, or is it all just part of the fantasy fandom experience? In this episode, Zach & Jim consider some of the most unpopular opinions about fantasy fiction, and try to truly consider: Are these opinions actually valid? Are are they just actually wacko?

In amazing fantasy and science fiction worlds -- Who's doing the work? Where does the food come from? The clothes? Who does the caregiving? Guest august clarke joins us to discuss the hands and bodies that create a society. Labor is something that's often sort of invisible in stories if it's not explicitly the driving focus of a book – So, why is that? How can authors better incorporate labor into their worlds? Labor intersects with so many other components of a world, after all: ideas about currency and property, concepts of time, religion, social class, technology. With labor touching so much of our characters' lives, where do we use SFF to examine & explore our world's labor issues, and where can we get creative and try to imagine escaping dominant paradigms? [Transcript TK] About Our Guest: august clarke is here and queer, etc. They have been published in PRISM international, Portland Review, and Eidolon. He was a 2019 Lambda Literary Fellow in Young Adult Fiction and a Locus Award, Dragon Award, and Pushcart nominee. They researched queerness, labor, and monstrosity at the University of Chicago. He is the author of the indie-bestselling series The Scapegracers, which he writes as H. A. Clarke.

Charlotte McConaghy is an Australian author living in Sydney with her partner and two children. She has a Masters Degree in Screenwriting from the Australian Film Television and Radio School, and a number of published SFF works in Australia. Her novel Migrations was her first foray into adult literary fiction, published in North America by Flatiron Books, and by Penguin Random House in Australia and the UK. It is being translated into over 25 languages and adapted to film. Once There Were Wolves, the New York Times Bestseller, is a romantic mystery about a biologist charged with reintroducing wolves to the Scottish Highlands in order to rewild the landscape and bring a forest back to life. Wild Dark Shore, the focus of today's show, continues her love of romantic thrillers set in beautiful, remote places, and explores not only what it takes to raise children in a collapsing world, but the impossible choices we make to protect those we love. Charlotte joins Barbara DeMarco-Barrett to talk about whether she comes up with the story first or the setting, what her research entails, why she chose multiple point of view narrators for Wild Dark Shore, how she knows when a novel is finished, revision, and more.

What are the unique challenges that tunnels face in terms of fire safety and ventilation? Hello Smart Firefighting Community! Welcome to another episode of covering real world innovations via interviews with fire service and technology industry experts that empower YOU to develop your very own Smart Firefighting strategy! In this episode: The impact of training videos as effective tools for educating firefighters How 3D BIM models and real photographs can create immersive training experiences Strategies for future-proofing infrastructure to adapt to long-term changes Hear from Craig Hiscock -  the Technical Director of Global Fire Safety at Tactix-Sener Group. Craig dives into the potential of training videos for firefighters with insights drawn from the creation of a training video for the New Zealand Fire Service. The discussion highlights how combining 3D BIM models with real photographs can transform traditional training into a more immersive experience.  The conversation also explores the unique challenges of fire safety in tunnels, where limited ventilation and airflows influenced by vehicles or trains present complex risks. The episode further examines the importance of future-proofing infrastructure by considering long-term changes like population growth and evolving vehicle types. Emphasis is placed on preserving valuable knowledge for future generations through efforts like those of the Institute of Fire Engineers.

Who is James Braidwood and how did he transform the fire service? Hello Smart Firefighting Community! Welcome to another episode of covering real world innovations via interviews with fire service and technology industry experts that empower YOU to develop your very own Smart Firefighting strategy! In this episode: What “finding the seat of the fire” means, and the role of airflow A blueprint for firefighting science and the science of fire How sharing knowledge strengthens the fire service sector Hear from David Dow - a firefighter at the Department of Fire and Emergency Services. David gives an exploration of the legacy of James Braidwood, the pioneering superintendent of the Edinburgh Fire Engine Establishment. Braidwood was instrumental in bringing together insurance brigades and founding the world's first municipal fire service.
