"I think all of us had the experience after reading the book of looking in maybe our grandparents' wardrobe, our parents' wardrobe, and like knocking on the back of the wardrobe and being like, maybe this is my time. Maybe they're gonna call me in here."— Mychal ThreetsFor this week's episode, we are testing out a slightly different format, something we have named a “Mixtape” episode. Rather than making the reading challenge the last bit of an author's show, we have made the reading challenge the show itself. We could not be more excited to welcome the biggest spot of joy on the web, Mychal Threets, to the podcast. In this episode, we learn about Mychal's playlist, the books that shaped him, and when he was a young library kid. As someone who grew up in the stacks and eventually made his calling his career, Mychal walks us through the books that sparked what he calls his "book joy."As it happens, Jordan will be doing a full interview with Mychal during a live recording at the upcoming American Association of School Librarians meeting (AASL) in St. Louis this October. But who wants to wait for the joy that Mychal brings? Nobody! Content Note: This episode includes discussion of mental health and suicide, which come up in Mychal's reading passage. If you'd prefer to skip this portion, it runs from [19:50-23:35].Tune in for an episode that will brighten your day and give you insight into the early life and times of someone who has shined a light on the joy and importance of libraries (and librarians!).We have set up Mychal's mixtape “playlist” as a reading challenge that can be downloaded for free or activated on your Beanstack site.

There is one thing that connects the disparate generations of Americans: books. This episode of the Velshi Banned Book Club will look at two novels that don't just capture the spirit of growing up but punctuate chapters in an American student's life: “Bridge to Terabithia” by Katherine Paterson and “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” by Stephen Chbosky. These books are frequently assigned in English classrooms across the county, and if they're not, they're passed from friend to friend. They are rites of passage in their own right. These books don't share plot, characters, or scenery, but they both prove how serious childhood is, how painful growing up can be, and just how "adult" a topic a young person can handle.
This week Emily talks to Nych Clark, an R&B singer with a voice that will send you right on over the bridge to Terabithia. Listen as Emily tries to keep her cool while Nych opens up about his past jobs, his creative process, and how many puberties he went through. You can find his music wherever you get music.

Cheese as creepy as we did as kids, you'll love this one.Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) is rated PG-13 for strong violent content, bloody images and language.

This week we chat with Kari Heggen, a bookstagrammer from Iowa who set herself a goal to read all the Newbery Award winners from the past 102 years. Originally she had planned to read 10 a year but she ultimately decided to just get her done. She read 49 of the winners in 2023 and got a jump start on 2024 by reading this year's winner, The Eyes and the Impossible by Dave Eggers. Kari talks about the highs and lows of her Newbery Award challenge. Books from the early days of the award were decidedly not great. But by the 1960s, Kari got into a better groove and found herself enjoying books for the first time and often the second time which brought back some childhood nostalgia.

Romance is in the air! Chocolates, flowers, and a pick axe wielding murderer who wants revenge! We have 2009's My Bloody Valentine! We figured since we're not really Valentine's Day kind of people, we'd have some fun with this one. We also have a lot of news for you including talk of Quentin Tarantino's final movie, confirmation that 28 Years Later is happening, and some worry about the Avatar The Last Airbender updates. And of course rest in peace Carl Weathers. Lizzard also talks about some movies such as the new Argylle movie and her depressing re-watch of Bridge to Terabithia with her mom! We hope you enjoy this Valentine's Day special! #holiday #valentinesday #mybloodyvalentine #remake #moviereview #movielovers #cinemalovers #horror #horrormovies #slasher #jensenackles #jaimeking #kerrsmith #tomatkins #kevintighe

Ever been struck by a wave of nostalgia for the days of VHS tapes and CD players? Well, that's exactly where we kick off this episode, with a burst of laughter over mustache ride jokes before diving into the more profound moments of confronting online trolls with our special guests Jesus and Lance in the Panther Den. We flip the script on hate with humor and kindness, and even share the worst pieces of 'conventional wisdom' we've ever received, leaving you amused and, perhaps, a bit wiser about life in the digital age.Strap in for a trip down memory lane as we spend time reminiscing about the cherished days of DVDs and the golden era of physical media. Films like 'Bridge to Terabithia' and 'Field of Dreams' tug at our heartstrings, and we unpack the colossal impact of music on our favorite movie moments. From Hans Zimmer's epic scores to the nostalgic themes of 'Lord of the Rings', we celebrate the harmonious marriage of soundtracks and cinema. Meanwhile, the McMahon allegations hit hard, prompting a raw discussion on the darkness lurking behind the glitz of the entertainment industry.As we approach the final curtain, we tease out the intricacies of movies and streaming platforms, giving you a front-row seat to the transformations of our personal media libraries. We debate the contentious topics of controversial behavior in filmmaking and the age-old question of separating the art from the artist, using films like 'The Room' and 'Saltburn' as prime examples. And before we bid adieu, we let you in on where to find our TFTI podcast and my own film 'Six' on platforms like Amazon Prime. Tune in for a rollercoaster of emotions and insights, where entertainment's influence on our lives takes center stage.CALL OR TEXT OUR HOTLINE AND LEAVE US A MESSAGE! 817-677-0408Fort Worth MagazineBest of 2022 - Radio Personality/Podcast (Reader's Pick) Show LinksThe Funky PantherMerchYouTube
Katherine Paterson is one of America's most celebrated writers for children. The author of more than 40 books, she is one of just six writers who have twice won the prestigious Newbery Medal, for “Bridge to Terabithia” in 1978 and “Jacob Have I Loved” in 1981. She has also won the National Book Award twice. In 2000, Paterson was named a Living Legend by the Library of Congress.Paterson frequently writes about children confronting difficult issues. At 89 years old, the Vermont author shows little sign of slowing down. She recently published a new book, “Birdie's Bargain,” about a child with a parent heading off to fight in Iraq.Paterson's books are among the most beloved in children's literature. They are also among the most banned. Book banning has lately been enjoying a revival, as books are being pulled from library shelves in “unprecedented” numbers, according to the American Library Association. Among the latest crop of books to be yanked from library shelves are “Maus,” the Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel about the Holocaust by Art Spiegelman; “Beloved,” by Toni Morrison; and “The 1619 Project,” a bestselling history of slavery in the U.S. that grew out of a special issue of The New York Times Magazine.“Bridge to Terabithia” rose to No. 8 on the American Library Association's list of the 100 most frequently challenged books for the 1990s. Her book “The Great Gilly Hopkins” was No. 20 on that list. Only a handful of authors had their books banned more often in the 1990s, including Maya Angelou, Mark Twain and John Steinbeck.“If you write a book that has any power in it, it has the power to offend,” Paterson said. “I don't want to write a book that has no power in it, so I have to run the risk of offending.”

In an age where Artificial Intelligence becomes increasingly interwoven into our daily existence, there's a growing urgency to impart the essence of humanity to our children. This week's episode is a conversation Tatiana Fallon and I had after we finished recording her presentation for the 2024 Realizing Genius Homeschool Conference (February 22-27, 2024). Her presentation is on AI and is fascinating! I can't wait for you to watch it! Our conversation is a great preview. Tatiana talks about how a classical Liberal Arts education for ourselves and our kids is a great antidote to the artificiality around us. Enjoy!

Are you looking for shivers this spooky season? Today. Encanto meets Coraline in Finch House, a delightfully thrilling middle grade novel by Ciera Burch. I read Finch House in a day, and I thought it was incredibly spooky, as well as warm and wonderful, and I highly recommend you run out and grab it. Finch House is a gloriously creepy read (but not TOO creepy) with strong characters and an ending that will haunt you -- a perfect read aloud as we head into October. Ciera Burch is a lifelong writer and ice cream aficionado, who holds a BA from my alma mater, American University, (Go Eagles!) and an MFA from Emerson College. And she would be an excellent choice for the Rick Riordan Presents imprint.

There is a relationship between grief and transcendence that may not be immediately recognizable. But it's one often expressed within art and in particular, children's literature. Whether it's Lewis's wardrobe to Narnia, Dorothy's house transported by cyclone to Oz or a bridge to Terabithia built across a chasm of loss. Grief has a way of transporting us to a fantastical world of imagination where we can more easily grapple with the difficulties of loss and even find closure to the trauma that sent us looking for relief. In this episode, Makers & Mystics host Stephen Roach talks with children's book author Katherine Paterson about the motivations behind her writing and why she feels it is important to create a safe space through art and literature for young adults to work through difficult emotions and experiences. Katherine Paterson is the author of more than 40 books, including 18 novels for children and young people. She has twice won the Newbery Medal, for Bridge to Terabithia in 1978 and Jacob Have I Loved in 1981.

Let’s close out our “Bridge to Terabithia” coverage with 2007’s “Bridge to Terabithia” a Disney/Walden Media production that changes a few things, adds a bit more and averages out to a pretty decent little film.

Katherine Paterson’s “Bridge to Terabithia” has the unfortunate legacy of being the book everyone thinks of as the Death By Newbery trope-namer. But, it’s a much more gentle, subtle and compassionate book than people give it credit for, written by a woman processing her and her child’s grief and giving children the gift of an […]
Wellp... grab a box of tissues y'all! We revisited Bridge to Terabithia. This is one of the most memorable and saddest movies of our childhood. This episode is full of tears and reflection... and stories of middle school imaginary boyfriends who may or may not be Josh Hutcherson. But in all seriousness, this movie deals with some pretty heavy topics. Check a synopsis before listening. Take care of yourselves

Seoul stealing Souls, and The Bridge but no Terabithia. Wisdom Of Solomon's wooden ship. The Kyrie Irving Apology that lead even the awakening into defending him. Idolatry and the lesson still not learned.
How do you help a kid that feels alone? How do you help a kid when he loses his best friend in a tragic death? These were questions that Katherine Paterson had with her son in 1977, inspiring her to write the classic novel, The Bridge to Terabithia. The movie is a bit uneven, but it has something important to say.

We are so happy to welcome the creative and delightful Anna Sargeant, editor at Sourcebooks, to the podcast! We talk about Anna's journey from curriculum development to children's books, Sourcebooks and their growth mindset, what makes for good children's nonfiction, and how being an editor changed her approach to rejection. Plus, we talk about her fiction podcast, how Bridge to Terabithia changed her life, and whether you can pitch her (and editors) directly. Read her post on nonfiction that's a good story here: https://www.manuscriptwishlist.com/2022/03/anna-sargeant/ Anna Sargeant is an editor of nonfiction children's books for Sourcebooks eXplore. Previously, she has been an editor of children's and teen books at B&H Kids, director of children's curriculum, managing editor, classroom teacher, math tutor, and freelance writer. She graduated from California State University, Long Beach, moved to Austin, Texas shortly after getting married, and now resides with her husband in Franklin, Tennessee. When Anna is not editing, writing, or reading, you might find her outdoors hiking, playing pickleball, or riding horses, indoors streaming shows or sports, or catching a plane to visit fun places or loved ones. Bridge to Terabithia is the book that changed her life, igniting her passion for children's literature and showing her that books for kids are often just as smart, insightful, and important as books for adults.
This week we're discussing (arguably) the most controversial episode of Greek: “Highway to the Discomfort Zone.” Buckle up because we will be chatting about the chaos of ZBZ big sis/little sis week, the Kappa Tau pledge project, Dale's quest to “change” Calvin and so much more!
