TWR Monday | A Masterclass On Modern Political Thrillers w/ Author Matt Scott!In this episode of The Whitfield Report, Sam sits down with modern political thriller author Matt Scott for a deep dive into his high-stakes, espionage-filled novels. Matt's latest action-packed thriller, THE AYATOLLAH TAKEDOWN (publishing 3/21/23 via Speaking Volumes), continues his gripping series following the success of SURVIVING THE LION'S DEN (2021) and THE IRANIAN DECEPTION (2022).Matt shares insights into crafting authentic and pulse-pounding spy fiction, drawing inspiration from masters like Vince Flynn and Brad Thor. He discusses his fascination with Iran, a country rarely explored in Western thrillers, and how he sought to bring it to life through immersive storytelling—much like The Da Vinci Code did for European history and art.From the art of balancing real-world geopolitics with fictional intrigue to the challenges of writing modern-day espionage, this episode is a must-listen for fans of political thrillers, aspiring authors, and anyone who loves a good page-turner.

Charlene Wexler has turned profound grief into a world of stories. Wexler is the Chicago-based author of seven books as well as several short stories. Inspiration for what would become her 2014 debut novel, “Lori,” arrived following the loss of her son, Jeffrey, who received a diagnosis of leukemia in 1977 at the age of eight and died in 1981 at the age of 12. “I always wrote for myself, and writing fiction is a new career. I started about 10 years ago,” said Wexler, who is now 80 years old.  “Cancer has been in our family for years: aunts, uncles, my mother, my grandfather, I had ovarian cancer, right now I have skin cancer. And we've dealt with all of them,” she explained. “And the cancer that really knocked us out was when my 8-year-old son, my firstborn, was diagnosed with leukemia. And we fought at Children's Memorial (Hospital, now known as Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago). We dealt with that, we fought the cancer for four and a half years before he died.  “And during that whole time, I wrote, I kept journals. And then after he died, I was devastated and (I) really couldn't get out of bed.” Then, Wexler started writing. “I took all my stuff together that I had been writing about him, and I wrote a story,” she said. “And I sent it to my sister who reads anything I write, who was there for me the whole time. And she said, 'This is great, but it's too devastating.' She said, 'Why don't you try again? Nobody's going to want to read this. It's just too grief ridden.'” More survivor stories: Former Opera Singer Shares Bone Cancer Journey in New Book Wexler shifted her writing from the first-person to the third-person and moved from memoir into the realm of fiction. “I found (that), my God, I could change it,” she said. “And instead of making him a boy, I made her a girl. And when I first started writing, I thought, 'I'm going to make her survive it.' That (even though) Jeffrey didn't, I'm going to make Julie, the girl in my story, live. But then, as I started writing, I realized I wanted to add what happened to me and how I survived — and how I didn't survive in the beginning. “And then, after I wrote the first draft, I realized the book needed more than just a child dying from leukemia. And all of a sudden, the character Lori became stronger than the child that died. And I felt like there are a lot of issues I can deal with. A third of the book deals with the cancer, and it deals with surviving afterwards.” Also from the “Cancer Horizons” podcast: Mother with Stage 4 Breast Cancer and Her Family 'Focus on the Living' For Wexler, a former teacher who also spent time working in her husband's dental office, “Lori” became the start of the four-book Laughter and Tears series, and her work is currently being re-released via Speaking Volumes. Wexler spoke with CURE®'s “Cancer Horizons” podcast about her cancer journeys, her path to becoming an author and the different challenges faced by patients and caregivers.

Since bursting onto the music scene with their debut EP The Concept Of Dreaming in 2010, L.A metalcore outfit Volumes has ridden somewhat of a rollercoaster ride of success.While their music has always been highly appealing to their massive legion of fans, the band themselves often courted controversy and infamy to the extreme and as such were shunned by certain sectors of the industry.In a sign of their growing maturity and dedication to music itself, Volumes have turned themselves around in recent times, towing the line to some extent and relying on their music to provide the headlines.With the recent release of their latest album Happier?, Volumes have solidified their growing reputation with a collection of tracks that leaves the band exposed and vulnerable, but in a much better state than ever before.Vocalist Michael Barr sat down with HEAVY to discuss Happier?"The album spans between the original Volumes sound” he began, “which is something we really leant into on this tour, mixed with four or five huge singles that are super radio friendly, with big, big singing choruses. It has the culmination of what I would say this band has done and what we've been through for a lot of years coming out sonically for the first time. We feel like we've done this the right way for the first time and it's finally all paying off."In the full interview Michael discusses the bands mature sound and approach to this album, their chequered past and how they are aiming to improve on that, their new vision, the question mark after the album title and what it signifies, recording through lockdown and more.

A true friendship is about having a mutual interest in one another's experiences and thoughts, as well as a sense of belonging and connection, it includes sympathy, empathy, honesty, affection, altruism, mutual understanding, and enjoyment of one another's company. Alexandra and I had the pleasure of sitting down with Skeery and Cher of Speaking Volumes Podcast. This dynamic duo are an amazing example of great friends who have this unique bond and relationship of speaking each other's words while truly having a love, appreciation, and affection for one another. Their warmth and caring is amazingly unique! As Cher said, "We know each other so well. I've found, in my life, there's not that many people that you can count on as your true friends..."

Career:As a stage actor, he has half a century's experience of working in theatres up and down the British Isles, and in English-speaking productions overseas. He took part in the first national tour of Godspell, and played in Julius Caesar and in Murder in the Cathedral at Chichester Festival Theatre. Other UK regional theatres where he has performed include Derby Playhouse and the Octagon Theatre, Bolton.For twenty years he was the Casting Director for The English Theatre of Hamburg and has cast over fifty plays, including The Importance of Being Earnest, Twelfth Night, As You Like It, Arms and the Man, Candida, Blithe Spirit, The Caretaker, Private Lives and The Circle, as well as the plays of LaBute and David Mamet. As a cabaret singer he has performed with his singing partner Francoise Geller in the UK and elsewhere. He has composed music and lyrics for productions such as The Circle, Educating Rita, When the Reaper Calls, Over the River, Through the Woods and April in Paris.[4]His first film job, in Arabesque, required him to play a scene with Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren. On television he has been a presenter on Play School, he played Inky in two series of Chips' Comic for Channel 4 and he spoke the first line in the first episode of Byker Grove. Griffin has worked as a dialogue coach on Byker Grove and Kavanagh QC. Through doing radio drama he realised that he could display great versatility with his voice alone, accessing a greater range of parts than would otherwise be possible. (For instance, in the late 'sixties when well into his twenties he took over the part of Billy the eldest grandson in The Dales, formerly Mrs Dale's Diary, who had previously been played as a boy with an unbroken voice, and played him till the serial ended.)He 'got in on the ground floor' when audiobooks started to be recorded. For many years he has been a voiceover specialist and has recorded nearly eight hundred audiobooks, mostly unabridged.[9] The subjects have been as varied as Homer's Odyssey, Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and novels by H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, as well as more modern writers like Hilary Mantel and Melvyn Bragg. Also many titles in the Golden Age of Murder series for the British Library, and non-fiction titles such as Elegy: The First Day on the Somme, and Breakfast is a Dangerous Meal by Terence Kealey, among many others. AudioFile Magazine wrote: "Griffin is not just a narrator, but an artist of the Spoken Word. He is in the top five of the most borrowed audiobook narrators in the world."[10] In 2015-2016 his 2015 reading of Kate Ellis 's The Death Season was the sixth most borrowed adult audiobook from UK public libraries, as reported by the Public Lending Right office.His more unusual audio recordings include having been the courteous voice advising alighting passengers to "Mind the gap, please" on the London Underground.In 2017, Griffin was appointed MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List "For services to People with Sight Impairment".PublicationIn 2020, Griffin published his memoir Speaking Volumes.ALL CONTENT IS HAS COPYRIGHT PROTECTION!

While vocalization is a common way for us as human beings to communicate, it is not the only way. In the world people have used and created various ways to relay messages to one another over time, it is beneficial that we remember primal ways of exchange between one another. We have technology to thank for our ability to quickly converse with others, but what about the subtle ways in which we communicate? Beyond words, and with practice, we can share with others clearly. Join Sihnuu Hetep and Imani Shanklin Roberts for a throat chakra chat on non-verbal communication.
