In this much-anticipated interview (at least by me), humorist and journalist Henry Alford joins me to discuss his recent bestselling book I Dream Of Joni: A Portrait of Joni Mitchell in 53 Snapshots. In a Joni nerd-off that may be unrivaled in podcast history, Henry and I talk about his research and reporting for this book, what he learned about Mitchell's contradictions and complexities, why he thinks she might be on the autism spectrum, and, above all, why Mitchell's music holds such a profound place in so many people's emotional and even intellectual lives. GUEST BIO Henry Alford is a humorist and journalist who has contributed to the New Yorker since 1998. He is the author of seven books, including Big Kiss, which won a Thurber Prize, and the recent I Dream of Joni: A Portrait of Joni Mitchell in 53 Snapshots, a national bestseller.

Hey friend! Sometimes we are in different seasons of decorating. Sometimes we're in an active sprint - actively painting, re-tiling or choosing large pieces of furniture before a specific deadline. Other times we're at a much slower pace - absorbing information and gathering inspiration, while simultaneously making a plan. But then there's the third place you could be in and if truth be told, this one is the one that stops most people from ever taking a step forward...and that's a place of stuckness. There are many reasons why you might be stuck. Sometimes it's being so overwhelmed by choices that you fear making a poor one. Other times there's a feeling of frustration at not knowing where to start. No matter the reason - if I just described you, this episode is for you. 5 simple routines to follow when you're constantly stuck in the place of not knowing where to start or feeling like there's too much to do: 1. The 10 minute edit: Allowing yourself to see your home in a new perspective with less visual clutter can be a helpful starting place that allows you to see the potential. 2. Snapshots of problem areas: This may sound counter intuitive, but take a picture of an area in your home that you can't stand. Look at it through the lens for a fresh perspective and journal about what you see and why it's problematic. 3. The ONE thing rule: Focusing on one aligned step is much better than five rushed ones. 4. Learn your style: Always a top priority and the foundation for creating a home you love. Use Pinterest, Google or good old fashioned magazines to start recognizing common elements that you are attracted to. 5. Make a plan: Set your home goals then work backward, crafting small steps that will help you achieve those goals. Shhh!!! Want to know a SECRET? fig & farm (at home) is having a SALE!!!!

HT2237 - Art-sized Prints How large does a print need to be in order to be considered artwork? Snapshots are usually pretty small, 4x6" or so. If we make a 5x7" is that big enough to be considered artwork? 8x10"? Why do photographers so readily consider size of function of the seriousness of artwork?

Paul Thiel's poetry collection “Snapshots” is a memoir full of vivid details from 1960's San Francisco, 1970's New York and the bygone nightlife scene in St. Louis and East St. Louis. He discusses his work with STLPR's Jeremy Goodwin.
22 Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, 24 but the boat by this time was a long way[b] from the land,[c] beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. 25 And in the fourth watch of the night[d] he came to them, walking on the sea. 26 But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear. 27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.”28 And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” 29 He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind,[e] he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” 31 Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”—Matthew 14: 22-33

Kan du dele din teknik?"En: "I can see you love photography too. Could you share your technique?"Da: Astrid så op, tydeligt overrasket, men hendes smil udvidede sig.En: Astrid looked up, clearly surprised, but her smile widened.Da: "Selvfølgelig! Jeg elsker at tale om billeder. Måske kan vi arbejde sammen?" tilbød hun.En: "Of course! I love talking about pictures. Maybe we could work together?" she offered.Da: Mikkels øjne blev store af både frygt og spænding.En: Mikkel's eyes grew wide with both fear and excitement.Da: Arbejde sammen? Kunne han virkelig gøre det?En: Work together? Could he really do it?Da: Men han nikkede alligevel, draget af Astrids venlighed.En: But he nodded anyway, drawn to Astrid's kindness.Da: De følgende uger og måneder arbejdede de tæt sammen.En: In the following weeks and months, they worked closely together.Da: Astrid hjalp med at bringe lys og farver ind i Mikkels billeder, mens Mikkel hjalp Astrid med at gave hendes billeder dybde og sindrighed.En: Astrid helped bring light and color into Mikkel's pictures, while Mikkel helped Astrid add depth and intricacy to hers.Da: De gik gennem Nyhavns charmerende gader, nu dækket med et let tæppe af sne, og indfangede vinterens magi gennem linserne på deres kameraer.En: They walked through the charming streets of Nyhavn, now covered with a light blanket of snow, capturing the magic of winter through their camera lenses.Da: Da foråret nærmede sig, præsenterede de deres værk for det lokale galleri.En: As spring approached, they presented their work to the local gallery.Da: Fotografierne vakte stor interesse, og de blev inviteret til at udstille.En: The photographs sparked great interest, and they were invited to exhibit.Da: Mikkel, der engang havde holdt sig til sig selv, stod nu stolt ved siden af Astrid, overrasket over, hvordan noget så enkelt som en foto-session kunne forandre hans liv.En: Mikkel, who once kept to himself, now stood proudly next to Astrid, surprised at how something as simple as a photo session could change his life.Da: Gennem deres samarbejde havde de bygget noget smukt sammen.En: Through their collaboration, they had built something beautiful together.Da: Mikkels hjerte, der først havde banket af frygt, bankede nu af glæde og håb.En: Mikkel's heart, which had once beaten with fear, now beat with joy and hope.Da: Han indså, at fællesskab og kreativitet gik hånd i hånd, og at nye venner kunne føde nye drømme.En: He realized that community and creativity went hand in hand, and that new friends could birth new dreams.Da: Og således, blandt de farverige huse i Nyhavn, begyndte et nyt kapitel for både Mikkel og Astrid.En: And so, among the colorful houses of Nyhavn, a new chapter began for both Mikkel and Astrid.Da: Ikke blot som fotografer, men som venner og partnere i ægte kunstnerisk harmoni.En: Not just as photographers, but as friends and partners in true artistic harmony.

In his sermon, Jake emphasizes the Christmas story's foundational importance, exploring themes of hope, peace, joy, and love within the context of Advent. He discusses the contrasting emotions often felt during the holiday season, such as despair and loneliness, stemming from societal pressures and the commercialization of Christmas. Through snapshots of Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and the Magi, he illustrates how each figure teaches us valuable lessons about trust, obedience, worship, and passionate pursuit of Jesus. Ultimately, he invites everyone—whether close to God or feeling distant—to draw near to the manger and experience the transformative power of Christ this Christmas.

Hinter So Soon verbergen sich David Stöbener und Marco Braun. Die beiden Multiinstrumentalisten, Songwriter und Produzenten spielen gekonnt mit Versatzstücken unterschiedlichster Genres wie Pop, Folk, Electronica und Post-Rock und erschaffen so fesselnde Songs, die sie nun am 22. November 2024 gesammelt auf ihrem Debütalbum "Whether You Like It Or Not" veröffentlichen. Darauf vertonen die beiden Jugendfreunde nach eigener Aussage "autobiografische Snapshots", thematisieren Dinge wie "das Aufwachsen in einer Welt, die viel bietet, aber auch viel verlangt, neblige Hoffnung, schwebende Melancholie." Dass die beiden Protagonisten sich bereits lange kennen, Vertrautheit und gemeinsame Erfahrungen teilen, und auch schon lange gemeinsam musizieren, ist "Whether You Like It Or Not" anzuhören. So können groß angelegte, frei atmende Songs entstehen wie die im Oktober erschienene, dritte Vorabsingle "Tie My Shoes": Mit sphärischem Gesang, verspielten Gitarren, verschleppten Beats und eingestreuten Samples wird den unwiederbringlich vergangenen unbeschwerten Kindheitssommertagen ein melancholisches klangliches Denkmal gesetzt. Heute sind So Soon zu Gast im studioeins, um sich im Interview vorzustellen und mit ein paar live gespielten Stücken Appetit auf mehr zu machen – zum Beispiel bei ihrem Konzert in der Kantine am Berghain am 12. Dezember 2024.

In this episode, Kim and Mary interview Sabrina Gebhardt with Sabrina Gebhardt Photography, a talented photographer, educator, and entrepreneur, who shares her journey from corporate America to launching a thriving photography business. Sabrina discusses how she balances motherhood, creative growth, business expansion, and personal well-being, offering valuable insights for aspiring creatives and entrepreneurs.Sabrina's passion for photography began early in life, growing up with parents who valued the art form. Her mother captured family moments, while her father focused on landscapes, both of which inspired her love for photography. However, she set the camera aside during college and a corporate career, only to rediscover her passion after the birth of her first child. Her journey into photography evolved organically, starting with capturing moments of her children, which soon led to friends requesting photos. Over time, Sabrina turned this passion into a business.As her photography business grew, she realized the importance of delegating tasks and hired support for administrative work, such as invoicing and editing. Outsourcing allowed her to reclaim joy in her craft while balancing business growth and personal life. This shift in mindset not only enhanced her well-being but also improved the quality of her work.Eight years into her photography career, Sabrina expanded into education and mentorship, which now forms a significant part of her business including mentorship programs, mastermind courses, retreats, and even launched her podcast, Shoot it Straight. Sabrina's approach to education is not about teaching others to replicate her style but about empowering creatives to embrace their unique artistic voices.A key theme throughout Sabrina's story is her adaptability. She emphasizes the importance of aligning your business with the different seasons of life. As her family's needs changed, she modified her business to fit those shifts, ensuring she could be present for her children while maintaining a thriving career. This flexibility has been instrumental in her personal and professional success.Sabrina also touches on the importance of financial planning and legacy building. For her, success is not just about artistic achievement but also about creating a financial foundation for her children's futures. Drawing on advice from her mother, Sabrina emphasizes the importance of maintaining an identity outside of motherhood. She wants her children to understand that they, too, can create fulfilling lives that align with their passions.Throughout the conversation, Sabrina stresses that business should be fun and fluid, evolving naturally over time. She encourages entrepreneurs to experiment, take risks, and listen to their intuition when making decisions.

Buckle up for another riveting episode. Host Ira S Wolfe along with co-hosts Mat Van Alstyne, and John Aidan Byrne plunge into the 2024 Election with Muhlenberg College pollster and political scientist Dr. Chris Borick. Listen as the conversation weaves an intricate dance between Main Street and Wall Street, revealing insights ahead of the 2024 election. Here are just some of the compelling lessons You'll take away: Favorability Isn't Everything Chris Borick pointed out that likability polls don't always translate to votes. It's fascinating how perception versus reality plays out at the voting booth. House and Senate Races Matter More Than You Think John Aidan Byrne broke down how slim majorities and competitive districts like the 7th in Pennsylvania could tip the scales significantly in the coming elections. Polling Puzzles and Innacuracies The crew dissected how 2016 and 2020's shocking results threw pollsters into a frenzy, sparking innovations like a blend of cold calling and online surveys to get closer to the mark. Poll Accuracy Efforts Improving polling methods was a hot topic, with Borick explaining the balancing act to correct past errors without overcompensating. Voter Perceptions and Demographic Divides Political preferences are distinctly split by educational attainment. Voters with 4-year degrees often swing differently than those without, a critical insight for campaign strategies. Early Voting Complications The slow counting of mail-in ballots can create early election night uncertainty, particularly in battlegrounds like Pennsylvania, adding suspense and complexity to the race. Strategic Figures Josh Shapiro's prominent role and enviable approval ratings make him a political player to watch, especially given his nuanced appeal in a deeply divided state. Polls as Snapshots, Not Predictions :Chris Borick wisely cautions us that polls should be snapshots of the current landscape rather than definitive predictions, keeping the suspense alive in the lead-up to Election Day. Fun Fact from the Episode: Chris Borick humorously noted, "Polling discrepancies are like rebellious teenagers – often unpredictable but certainly noticeable!"
