Our guest for this episode is Auden Schendler, the author of a new book called “Terrible Beauty: Reckoning with Climate Complicity and Rediscovering our Soul”. Published by Harvard Business Review Press, it is part memoir, part reflection, and part prescription from 30 years of working in corporate sustainability. If you aren't familiar with Auden, he learned about corporate sustainability at the Rocky Mountain Institute, which was co-founded by Amory Lovins, who was named one of the world's most influential people by Time in 2009 and considered the Einstein of energy efficiency. Auden then moved on to Aspen Ski Company where he worked from 1999 to earlier this year as its Vice President and then Senior Vice President of Sustainability. He's been named a "climate innovator" by TIME magazine and a "climate saver" by the EPA.In this episode, we talk about Auden's journey from growing up in New Jersey during the environmental decay of the 1970s and spending time with extended family in North Dakota - a place where we found the natural world as a refuge - to his work in local politics in Colorado and in the ski industry. Our conversation though centers on the ideas in the book Terrible Beauty. As Auden says "climate changes threatens everything we care about" so we need to be willing to do the hard work as citizens to bring about real change. He also shares a few ideas about how corporate leaders can go beyond corporate sustainability as usual that just upholds our fossil fuel economy to get to a place where they are using the power of their brand to push for systemic change. However, the book is unlike any other sustainability book or article I've ever read. Auden makes a more joyful case about how we be engage our role as citizens to build community and ultimately drive change that allows us all to thrive - as a parent, as a corporate leader or by just contributing to the place we live.You can buy the book at audenschendler.com, and read a few endorsements from people far more noteworthy than me such as Conrad Anker, Bill McKibben and former White House National Climate Advisor Gina McCarthy.

Being an active follower of Christ will always lead us to find things that are incongruent with God's Kingdom and we'll want to do something about it. To do justice, we have to address injustice and that might require us to start something (and our community is full of people that start things). Starting something is hard though so we've invited author and pastor Bryan Halferty to walk us through the spirit and the tenacity it takes to undertake a new Kingdom venture. Bryan also shares about his upcoming book "Terrible Beauty" which is a memoir of his own journey towards starting a church in the most unchurched metropolitan area of the country.

Americans are "swapping revolution for sorting plastic bottles," writes Auden Schendler in his new book, "Terrible Beauty." For decades, Schendler has led sustainability efforts at Aspen One, formerly known as Aspen Skiing Co. He became disillusioned and lays out a more effective course in his new release, including a blueprint to sue ExxonMobil over climate change.

This historical fantasy is from the realms of classic YA and we're both super excited to revisit this novel that we both read around 10 years ago for the podcast as from what we remember, it has definite dark academia fantasy vibes.While this series is now out of print, ‘The Great and Terrible Beauty' is still available in ebook, and it stands as a touchstone of YA. It's 1895, and after the death of her mother, 16-year-old Gemma Doyle is shipped off from the life she knows in British India to Spence Academy, a proper boarding school in England.Lonely, guilt-ridden, and prone to visions of the future that have an uncomfortable habit of coming true, Gemma's reception at Spence is a chilly one. To make things worse, she's being followed by a mysterious young Indian man who has been sent to watch her. But why? What is her destiny? And what will her entanglement with Spence's most powerful girls – and their foray into the spiritual world – lead to?But how will it hold up to the tropes of dark academia and a reread a decade later?In this episode we discuss:Revisiting a classic YA novel fifteen years laterSophie's issues with historical fiction and the subjugation of womenAn unexpected treatise on politics, reading, and how everything is political in the wake of the 2024 US Presidential ElectionAnd a whole lot of tangents…
Auden Schendler is someone whose work we've admired for a long time. And In this conversation, Auden and Jonathan talk about human purpose, the importance of joy and living well; and Auden spells out the need for systemic change — and not just token actions — to actually address climate change.RELATED LINKS:audenschendler.comEp.

David Simms resides in the scenic Shenandoah Valley of Virginia with his family and a pack of furry companions, having escaped the hustle and bustle of New Jersey and Massachusetts. By day, he juggles roles as a psychology and special education teacher, a college English instructor, a counselor, and a music therapist. When the sun sets, David transforms into a ghost tour guide and lead guitarist for Slushpile, a band he co-founded alongside bestselling authors as part of the Killer Thriller Band.David has delivered workshops across multiple states, focusing on innovative methods such as using music to enhance learning, encouraging teens to write creatively, and offering strategies to help teachers combat burnout. His diverse career includes a variety of published works, ranging from short stories in anthologies like Terrible Beauty, Traps!, and Darkness Rising to academic papers on music therapy and creative writing for adolescents.He joins Vince on the show to discuss his novel Pierce the Veil, a psychological thriller that challenges preconceived notions of the afterlife. The story follows Boone, a man who was clinically dead for 23 hours and wakes up to find people obsessed with discovering whether he saw the other side. The conversation explores why people are fascinated with the afterlife and the fear of the unknown.They also discuss the use of in medias res to create a dramatic opening, the research behind cryonics and near-death experiences, and the character of the Priest and the secretive Brotherhood. The discussion touches on the hyper-religiosity of Boone's fiancée, Megan, and her obsession with him remembering a vision of the afterlife. The conversation delves into the consequences of fame and the desire for attention, as well as the portrayal of evangelical atheists in the story. It also explores the dynamics of talk shows and the need for people to be comforted and deceived.The chapter highlights the cinematic elements of the book and the potential for a screenplay adaptation. The emotional struggles of the priest character are examined, emphasizing his desire for acceptance and the conflict between his religious beliefs and personal desires. In the final part of the conversation, David Simms and Vincent Midgard discuss themes of trauma, repressed memories, and the power of the unconscious mind. They explore the concepts of the id, ego, and superego, and how they influence decision-making processes.They also touch on the use of trauma in conditioning and embedding commands. David shares his hopes for the future, including getting his books into the hands of more readers and potentially seeing his work adapted for the screen.Website: https://davidsimmsmuse.comAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/David-Simms/author/B00G2KJR9W?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=trueInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dsimms_muse/#davidsimms #piercetheveil #fearthereaper #indieauthor --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vincent4635/support

This week is a hybrid episode as we slowly creep back into a recording schedule after a nice long summer break. We've got Appalachia and Eastern Kentucky on our minds because of the recent catastrophic flooding in parts of the state so we decided that we'd rebroadcast part of an earlier episode with Kendra Winchester, founder of Read Appalachia on Instagram, who champions Appalachian writers on her feed. But we also had the opportunity to speak this week with Bobi Conn, an Appalachian author and friend of the show who we interviewed in June of 2020 about her debut memoir In the Shadow of the Valley, a raw and unflinching look at growing up in Eastern Kentucky and her dysfunctional family. Bobi has a new novel coming out at the end of August call A Woman In Time that incorporates more family stories she heard about her great grandpa, a moonshiner, and her great grandmother, who held the family together. Did you know that helping flood victims can be as easy as buying a book? This Saturday, August 6, Carmichaels Bookstore in Louisville KY will donate all profits from book sales from all 3 stores and their website to Eastern Kentucky flood relief funds organized by Foundation for Appalachian Kentucky and the Hindman Settlement School. Their website is www.carmichaelsbookstore.com. We will be back next week with the true start of Season 7 and an all new episode. Happy Reading!

This is the first half of my presentation to Professor Rory Ryan's Federal Courts class at Baylor Law School, about SB8, on November 23, 2021. The presentation addresses four issues raised in the litigation about the law: (1) sovereign immunity as defined by Ex Parte Young,(2) standing (both to sue about SB8, and under it), (3) whether Texas avoided "state action" (and with it, the federal civil-rights laws) by its delegation of enforcement to private citizens, and (4) limits on federal-court power to enjoin an unconstitutional law, especially as stated by In Re Debs.This episode has the introduction and the discussion of the first topic about Young. PLEASE NOTE that there are occasional short skips in the recording, especially at the very start, but they do not interfere with the flow of the presentations. The PowerPoint is available here and a video recording here.

Grab you favorite comfort book and join us as we discuss re-reading YA novels from growing up as adults. While we read a fair amount of new YA, it's been some time since we re-read the novels we grew up with in YA. We were curious to see how our reactions changed, and if the books held up. Katie rereads The Hunger Games (and reveals something scandalous, maybe?), Percy Jackson, and more, while Bailey covers Artemis Fowl, A Great and Terrible Beauty, Uglies, and for a middle-grade bonus: The Clique. We also quickly cover some adaptations and how we think YA publishing and fandom has changed.

Today we are discussing our final themes, predictions, and thoughts on Eye of the World as we move on to The Great Hunt. Laura calls Hannah out for predicting something she had definitely read about in the second book. We discuss things we used to read and enjoy in high school, like unabridged Les Mis and Newsies, because we are very cool. Wait until the end where we lose it over the fact that Dune had characters like Duncan Idaho with Jessica and Paul.There are major Jane the Virgin spoilers for about 2 minutes! Also Hannah goes in-depth on What We Do in the Shadows and she likely could have cut it down by 3 minutes. Media Mentions

Feedback Tilly and the Bookwanderers by Anna James (rec’d by Lauren) Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor (rec’d by Leenie) Questions 1. At the recommendation of the podcast, last year I read (and loved!) Braiding Sweetgrass and The Overstory. I’m looking for more books to add to my TBR list with naturalist elements. Is there a book version of Planet Earth but with trees and plants?? Like many I’ve had a challenging year with quarantine stress and non-COVID health issues, so I would prefer something that isn’t a portrait of grief (H is for Hawk, beautiful but too sad!) or about the total destruction of our world as we know it due to climate change. Open to all genres except horror, and please no sexual violence or violence towards children. Thank you! -Emily 2. I am sure you have recommended this type of book before, but unsure how to find them. I have not read a romance book in years and feel the need to. I can not remember a book that would closely match what type I would like to read. Its the ‘Will they or Won’t they’ type of romance. Some examples of tv shows that display this is as follows: Castle: Richard & Kate, Moonlighting: David & Maddie, The Nanny: Fran & Mr. Sheffield, The X-Files: Mulder & Scully, Remington Steele: Remington & Laura, Law & Order SVU: Elliot & Olivia, House: House and Cuddy, Bones: Temperance & Seeley, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, Frasier: Daphne & Niles, Star Trek TNG: Picard and Beverly and The West Wing: Donna & Josh. I know, mostly 80’s shows. Once they are together, I am no longer interested. Also bonus if female in story somehow gets hurt physically and he helps her out. I am not picky as to if it’s an action, contemporary, fantasy, gothic, historical romance etc. book or not. Thank for your help. -Kelly 3. After years of working from home, I’m about to start commuting again, and will be spending at least 2 hours a day in the car. I’m hoping for an entertaining and engaging audiobook with a plot that hooks you in, to help me pass the time. I’d prefer fiction, as right now I only really listen to nonfiction audiobooks and am looking to expand my horizons, but I’m open to anything. I’m open to any genre, but my favorites are mysteries/whodunits, fantasy, and historical fiction. (Sorry if this is too vague!) Thank you so much, I’m such a big fan of the show

Zehra Dogan, a 31-year-old Kurdish artist who spent almost two years in jail in Turkey, is earning growing international plaudits for her work. A recent exhibition in Istanbul of the work she produced while in prison marks the first time she has been shown in Turkey. Some of the images which accompany this article are disturbing. Dogan's deeply unsettling works combine themes of resistance and feminism. Her paintings have already won a series of European prizes and widespread acclaim. She has been exhibited at London's world-famous Tate Modern. What is most remarkable is that she created her artwork secretly while in prison. "I can talk about hundreds of paintings I drew, and the prison authorities confiscated only 30. They told me they 'destroyed' each one of them because it's forbidden," explains Dogan. Being in prison enriched her work, forcing her to innovate. "I had to use materials outside the normal realm of art, like menstrual blood, hair, prison bedsheets, shopping lists, electricity bills," she says. "Combining both art and factual documentation, I could incorporate both my feminist and journalist identities to create these works." Dogan's work was smuggled out of prison. But she's guarded on explaining exactly how, saying she doesn't want those who helped her to face reprisals. But reportedly, one way was through the prison laundry. Dogan served nearly two years in prison on terrorist propaganda charges for her picture depicting the destruction of a town by Turkish security forces in its war against the PKK Kurdish separatist group. Famous artists, including Banksy, joined an international campaign for Dogan's release. But while Dogan became a global focal point of Ankara's crackdown on dissent, few people in Turkey are aware of her work. Given Dogan's terrorist conviction and the fact that her artwork was created in prison, no art venue in Turkey dared to display Dogan's work. "People who came here, the first reaction was: 'This is the first time we are seeing the Zehra Dogan artworks, and it is really deep.' Now we can talk about her artworks," said exhibition curator Seval Dakman. "This is the first chance in Turkey; I think because of only this reason, it was important because Zehra met with an art audience for the first time in Istanbul," she added. "And now many people are talking about her artworks and its politics. Why it is political, why it is about women's rights." Most people attending the gallery didn't want to talk and appeared nervous about visiting. "When I saw her exhibition opening, I wanted to come and see it. She did these artworks in prison, in hardship, without having any art material whatsoever," said a young teacher who wanted to remain anonymous. "There're works made with menstrual blood and hair. It feels like a reflection of today's Turkey's political situation," he added. "When we look at Turkey now, we see many people go through these hardships; being a woman is altogether another hardship in itself. I think she reflected on all this very well." Dogan isn't able to savour the joy of her first exhibition in Turkey. With other charges pending against her, she now lives in exile in London. Dogan is about to work on a project with world-famous Chinese artist Ai Weiwei. Dogan admits she feels the pain of exile. "When I was imprisoned, I couldn't go out; I wasn't free. But my art being outside made me feel free in a way. Now It is a very similar experience; I can't go back to Turkey, to my homeland, but my art is now there, and this takes me to Istanbul in a way as well. "

It's a hard truth: our greatest times of growth most often happen during seasons of suffering. How do we leverage the hard places instead of crumbling under them?

Listen in to hear how Meg has embraced their family's continuing suffering as a gift of God's Presence that brings growth.
ICYMI: Lacy Nguyen and Ashley Budelli debrief Reads for the Resistance with a review of Chapter 2. Join Read for the Resistance every Saturday from 9am - 10am. Chapter 2 Summary: This chapter runs through much of Reinhold Niebuhr’s career as one of America’s foremost theologians. Cone laments and is obviously exasperated by the fact that Niebuhr, who is manifestly capable of understanding Black sorrow and rage, never appears to “get it” about what America’s Black population needs. Niebuhr misses numerous opportunities to dig into Black experience and pain. Repeatedly, he declines to engage in Black suffering in any sustained way. He takes his cue from Hodding Carter and William Faulkner rather than Martin Luther King and ends up with a gradualist approach to an issue that requires revolutionary change. Needless to say, Niebuhr fails to make the connection between the cross of Jesus and the lynching tree. As a consequence, Niebuhr’s otherwise influential career is marred by his mediocre response to Black issues. As Cone assumes his own teaching responsibilities at Union, he returns appreciatively to Niebuhr’s writings. Nevertheless, America’s foremost Black theologians and ethicists never make the connection between the cross and the lynching tree. Douglas Decelle

Tanner's away this week so Ryan fills in for them, and gets the full blast of Lindsay explaining the book A Great and Terrible Beauty in order to divine a movie adaptation from the material. They'll discuss how best to evoke a gothic brand while also hitting a Mummy-level of campiness. Along the way they'll also engage in sibling shaming, look at Russel Crowe's rippling abs, and play some muffled Kelly Clarkson in the distance.

Our 18th century scholar operated as self-avowed "fun police," but didn't dampen our enthusiasm for Mackenzi Lee's Gentelman's Guide to Vice and Virtue. And we're awaiting her sequel with bated breath. Kim suggests Libba Bray's Great and Terrible Beauty (which kicks off a brief love-fest for Libba Bray), Gail Carriger's Etiquette and Espionage, and Bloodly Jack by L.A. Meyer. Nate suggests Libba Bray's The Diviners and also offhandedly Beauty Queens. Amy suggests Alexandra Bracken's Passenger. Nathan suggests The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, Tobias Smollett's The Expedition of Humphry Clinker, and "The Last of the Famous International Playboy" by Morrissey. Margaret suggests Roxana by Daniel Defoe and Captain Singleton by Daniel Defoe.

An RTÉ Lyric FM production, ‘Terrible Beauty’ won the prestigious Prix Marulic Award 2017
January 30, 2017 - This week, we mark the anniversary of the first Baseball Hall of Fame class on January 29, 1936. In that year, Ty Cobb earned 222 ballots, just four votes short of a unanimous decision, so the date gave us a chance to revisit one of our earliest interviews, and a book we cited often as a journalistic high water mark for history. Joining us again to chat about the unfairly maligned Georgia Peach, is Charles Leerhsen, author of Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty. Mr. Leerhsen scratched the myth of Cobb as a belligerent, dimwitted racist and dirty player, and found he'd been maligned by a hack sportswriter named Al Stump, who smeared a man who was in fact an intellectual, lover of children, and supporter of baseball's integration. So how have baseball fans embraced the true story in the year and a half since the book's publication? How has Charles Leerhsen fared after literally rewriting history to restore perhaps the greatest player ever to pick up a bat? We'll dig into those questions, and then share the original chat for those of you who missed it. You can find our guest @CharlesLeerhsen on Twitter and at CharlesLeerhsen.com, or like the book at Facebook.com/TyCobbBook.

September 28, 2015 - Even casual baseball fans can name the game's greatest heroes, and its most infamous villain: Ty Cobb. Yes, it's something that even Yankees and Red Sox fans can agree on: "The Georgia Peach" wasn't a very nice fellow. But what if everyone is wrong? What if, like Ulysses S. Grant, Ty Cobb's enemies were just more prolific writers than his friends? What if by accepting the view of Ty Cobb as a belligerent racist and dirty player, we're smearing baseball's all-time great, and abetting a century of shoddy reporting? If so, then someone should set the historical record straight. Well, that's exactly what Charles Leerhsen set out to do in his New York Times best-seller, Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty. In it, Mr. Leerhsen questioned all the accepted truths about Cobb and found the facts striking out. And Mr. Leerhsen is not just a sports fan, but a journalist trained in facts. You've seen his work everywhere from Sports Illustrated and Esquire to The New York Times Magazine and People. He has also been an editor at SI, Us Weekly, and Newsweek. You can find him @CharlesLeerhsen on Twitter and at CharlesLeerhsen.com. We hope you'll pour yourself a cold one, tear open a box of Cracker Jacks, and play ball with Charles Leerhsen and Ty Cobb ... A Terrible Beauty. Meet Buster - Mascott of New Jersey's Lakewood BlueClaws
Ty Cobb is baseball royalty, maybe even the greatest player who ever lived. His lifetime batting average is still the highest of all time, and when he retired in 1928, after twenty-one years with the Detroit Tigers and two with the Philadelphia Athletics, he held more than ninety records. But the numbers don’t tell half of Cobb’s tale. The Georgia Peach was by far the most thrilling player of the era: “Ty Cobb could cause more excitement with a base on balls than Babe Ruth could with a grand slam,” one columnist wrote. When the Hall of Fame began in 1936, he was the first player voted in. But Cobb was also one of the game’s most controversial characters. He got in a lot of fights, on and off the field, and was often accused of being overly aggressive. In his day, even his supporters acknowledged that he was a fierce and fiery competitor. Because his philosophy was to “create a mental hazard for the other man,” he had his enemies, but he was also widely admired. After his death in 1961, however, something strange happened: his reputation morphed into that of a monster—a virulent racist who also hated children and women, and was in turn hated by his peers. How did this happen? Who is the real Ty Cobb? Setting the record straight in Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty, Charles Leerhsen pushed aside the myths, traveled to Georgia and Detroit, and re-traced Cobb’s journey, from the shy son of a professor and state senator who was progressive on race for his time, to America’s first true sports celebrity. In the process, he tells of a life overflowing with incident and a man who cut his own path through his times—a man we thought we knew but really didn’t. The interview with Charles Leerhsen was originally recorded on May 5, 2015.

A Terrible Beauty/Áille an Uafáis screened at the The 93-minute feature docudrama set during the Irish Rebellion of 1916 tells the largely untold story of displaced young men, women and children caught up in a chain of events which would have tragic consequences leaving many innocent people dead. Adam McPartlan talks to producer Dave Farrell and actor Colin Farrell, who plays Frank Shouldice, about the film.
People change the planet in beautiful and terrifying ways, from high art to base waste. Never before have we had such power to transform our planet and ourselves. Never before have we so risked losing everything. Robust economies and environments are essential to mankind's future. This performance combines music inspired by Ovid's works with selections from modern political and economic thinking in order to envision how society might metamorphose towards sustainable commerce with nature.
