What would you do if you saw Boris Johnson coming out of a bush? It's a startling sight but it could happen if he happens to be promoting one of his columns for The Mail. As for his sister, she definitely won't be in a Lidl but might be in a Sainsbury's, you'll know why when you hear the clip. Then we head to the campaign trail for 'The Election Section' and Beth Rigby is the latest presenter to have grilled Sunak and Starmer. Starmer may have done better in that arena but neither are covering themselves in glory with the public. One laughs at a doctor, the other has a tone deaf response to a child's story. Still, not much beats the reception, Esther Macvey got when she made some wild claim about her party. Then to France we go and this is where it becomes apparent that Jemma might have had a night on the tiles and be feeling a little 'fragile' during record. Her French accent is more Del Boy than Del Boy's as Marina points out. Why has Macron called an election? What happened in the EU Parliament elections and why can't Jemma pronounce the word 'effortlessly.'

TCU Men's Basketball suffered two losses this week with historically bad turnover performances, dropping an overtime contest in Cincinnati with a season-worst 19 turnovers. The Frogs promptly followed that up with a program-worst 27 giveaways vs. Iowa State to drop first home game of the season. TCU Women's Basketball suffered a major setback as continued injury accumulation left the Frogs without enough players available to safely play last week, forced to issue forfeits for two conference games. It was a bizarre week that culminated in an open tryout and TCU Volleyball's Sarah Sylvester joins the Hoops roster as a walk on. Other Spring sports get rolling as #2 TCU Rifle bested #9 Ohio State, Women's Tennis opens its season with a 7-0 sweep of Northwestern State while the #4 Men's squad opens play Wednesday before hosting ITA Kickoff Weekend beginning Saturday, as it aims for a third consecutive Indoor National Championship. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/frogsup/support

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 13, 2023 is: travesty • TRAV-uh-stee • noun Travesty refers to something that is shocking, upsetting, or ridiculous because it is not what it is supposed to be, but is instead a distorted or badly inferior imitation of it. The word is often used in the phrase “a travesty of.” Travesty is not a synonym of tragedy, which refers instead to a disastrous event. // That the timber company only had to pay a minimal fine after being found guilty of illegal logging was considered by many to be a travesty of justice. See the entry > Examples: “Ten years and a number of entries later, ‘Fast Five' is the first sequel to the 2001 ‘The Fast and the Furious' that's worth watching, that isn't an embarrassment or a travesty of the original picture.” — Mick LaSalle, SFChronicle.com, 20 May 2023 Did you know? When disaster strikes, keeping track of which word to use seems pretty unimportant. But you don't want to describe disastrous events as travesties, because they're not: they're tragedies. Travesties are terrible too, but travesty refers specifically to something that is done in a way that makes a mockery of what it's supposed to be: for example, a contest won by the judge's spouse could be considered a travesty. And a trial in which the defendant wasn't allowed to present evidence could be described as a “travesty of justice.” Travesty, which can also function as a verb meaning “to make a travesty of” or “to parody,” comes from the French verb travestir, meaning “to disguise.” Its roots, however, wind back through Italian to the Latin verb vestire, meaning “to clothe” or “to dress.” Other descendants of vestire include vestment, divest, and invest.

Christians fall down before the wicked these days and corrupt the springs. Sadly, the church hardly speaks with a unified voice against the false religions that are capturing our institutions everywhere. Tyranny descends on the nations in every generation largely through fake Christians, do-gooders, prohibitionists,--social-gospelites, social justice warriors, and other antinomians. We explain here why Woke is bad, why feminism is bad, and other worldly ideologies that are counter to the laws of God. Churches want to avoid the discussions because they want to avoid controversy, or they say that they are committed to -the Gospel.- But the law of God is part of the teaching related to the Gospel itself. Reject the law of God, and you have rejected the Gospel.--This program includes---1.

Sam hosts Mark Joseph Stern, senior writer at Slate, to discuss the recent opening arguments that have come in front of the Supreme Court. First, Sam runs through updates on the Democratic victory in Arizona bringing Kari Lake down, the GOP creeping even closer to a House majority, Biden's attempt to renew the student debt repayments, and Iran detaining minors for protest, before watching the right cope with their disappointing showing last week. Mark Joseph Stern then joins as he dives right into the joint affirmative action case being taken against Harvard and UNC, walking through why – despite it supposedly hinging on the 14th Amendment – the majority of the arguments and discussion has been conservative racial aggrievement about policy, with the legal theory coming from the more liberal judges while still appreciating policy impact. Next, Mark parses through Haaland v. Brackeen, the upcoming Supreme Court case that ostensibly deals with states' rights to lay claim to native children living on reservations, and the larger impact of weakening the rights of reservations and their laws in the eyes of the US courts, opening it up to exploitation by both the state and corporation, also drawing a parallel to Georgia's treatment of indigenous peoples in the lead up to the Indian Removal Act. Mark Joseph Stern and Sam also tackle the optimism for the Talevski v. Health and Hospital Corporation case and the future of people's right to have federal protections enforced, before wrapping up with the continued investigation into the Roe leaks. And in the Fun Half: Sam dives into the potential overhaul of GOP leadership as Rep. Andy Biggs' announcement that he will be challenging for Speaker of the House and Rick Scott attempts to hide his disdain for McConnell. Em from Baltimore dives into the success of Michigan's attempt to address gerrymandering and Zack from Michigan dives into Proposal 3 officially codifying abortion into the state constitution.

As noted in the previous episode, auditions are the backbone of this industry. It is the fundamental job of every actor to do as many jobs as we can and do each one to the best of our ability. But there is an important gatekeeper when it comes to submitting our self tapes or actually getting in the audition room, and that is the casting Director. You've heard from Actors and their experiences in front of the audition table. Well, now it's time to hear from the other side of that proverbial table and what goes in to casting, and the vital role they play in the production for the stage or screen. Daryl Eisenberg, along with fellow casting director Ally Beans, works to create a comfortable space for actors, so they can take risks and really show their full potential as artists. You'll hear Daryl's thoughts on how actors can make their mark in the audition room or on a self-tape, and then you'll get an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at how she uses her position and expertise to make the audition process enjoyable and inclusive for artists on both sides of the table.

What is the connection between artists from different eras, backgrounds, and ideologies? The DADA movement focuses on the lack of meaning and the revolution against stereotypical art views and or forms. This includes visual art, music, and plays, Tom Stoppard is a Czech playwright whose work has been inspired by some ideas of this movement and mentioned Tristan Tzara and many other dadaist artists in one of his most famous plays -Travesties. He was also inspired by Shakespeare's sonnets and rearranged the original work to create a version of the truth from a comical standpoint rather than meaningful and severe.

The Dada art movement is regarded as a reactionary art movement in the early 20th century. During this, Tom Stoppard, a British playwright, created the play Travesties. In the play, Tristan Tzara creates a Dada poem that ignites a couple of essential questions about Dadaism and of the works themselves. Join us, Victor Alvarez, Joselys Llanes, and Francisco Mederos, as we tackle the essential questions about Dadaism and its sense of originality.

On this Episode of Luke Who's Talking I'm going to talk about, Travesties, Moneypenny and Signs. A few weeks ago, or whenever it actually was, I went out for St Patrick's day. Of course I had a Guinness, because that's a legal requirement, but I saw something that is a crime against the thick frothiness that is a Guinness. If you know how a Guinness is poured, its a bit of a process, first you pour ¾ of it, then wait for it to ‘settle' then top it off, well what I saw that night was the ‘topping off' being done by a beer! Not more Guinness, I wanted to ask the person who got the drink what the heck it was about, but they were with a group of other people. You know how it is….. I had a slight run in with a lady who had an infamous name, that name is, Moneypenny! Miss or Mrs Moneypenny! Either way, Moneypenny exists outside the world of Bond and in my town. Who'd of thought is, not me that's for sure. Lastly, I saw a guy reverse into a sign, and just drive off. The guy was reversing out of their driveway and opposite there was a sign that had something like ‘Event in Progress' on it, it was just a temporary sign. But the reverser, just hit it and then drove off. I guess given that their vehicle was a ‘work car' (it had business branding all over it) they probably didn't care if it had damage on it!

Show Notes and Links to Roberto Lovato's Work and Allusions/Texts from Episode 73          On Episode 73, Pete talks with Roberto Lovato about his outstanding, moving, and illuminating memoir, Unforgetting. Using the book as a foundation, the two talk about US foreign policy in El Salvador and beyond, media and propaganda, connections between the past and today, “La Matanza” and other traumatic events in El Salvador's history, the importance of “unforgetting” and “re-membering,” and hope as embodied by the Salvadoran resolve and beauty shown despite great tragedies.         Roberto Lovato is the author of Unforgetting: A Memoir of Family, Migration, Gangs and Revolution in the Americas (Harper Collins), a memoir picked by the New York Times as an “Editor's Choice” that the paper also hailed as “Groundbreaking…. A kaleidoscopic montage that is at once a family saga, a coming-of-age story and a meditation on the vicissitudes of history, community and, most of all for [Lovato], identity.”  Newsweek listed Lovato's memoir as a “must read” 2020 book and the Los Angeles Times listed it as one of its 20 Best Books of 2020. Lovato is also an educator, journalist and writer based at The Writers Grotto in San Francisco, California. As a Co-Founder of #DignidadLiteraria, he helped build a movement advocating for equity and literary justice for the more than 60 million Latinx persons left off of bookshelves in the United States and out of the national dialogue. A recipient of a reporting grant from the Pulitzer Center, Lovato has reported on numerous issues—violence, terrorism, the drug war and the refugee crisis—from Mexico, Venezuela, El Salvador, Dominican Republic, Haiti, France and the United States, among other countries.

he connects his reading to Carl Jung's quote-”The gold is in the dark” and talks about his extensive lifetime habit of writing in journals At about 7:00, Roberto discusses education's history in his family and gives background on his father's childhood in El Salvador; this leads to an outline At about 10:10, Roberto explains the feeling of being “half-dead” as a Salvadoran-American and ideas of post-traumatic stress and the connections felt to his story by those of the Salvadoran and Jewish diasporas At about 11:40, Roberto talks about obstacles to his intellectual growth, though he was identified as a “gifted” child, and he gives a summary of the book through a description of his relationships with people and places throughout  At about 12:45, Roberto talks about early reading and refuge through reading The Bible, and believing that “words had the power of God” At about 14:20, Roberto talks about the different religious organizations he's been part of in his life, with his love for The Word being the one constant At about 15:30, Pete references the universal and hyper-specific references to trauma and fascism and quotes the wise Hannah Arendt, saying “terror forces oblivion”; Roberto reverses the Arendt quote and connects it to US government policies of Central American child separation and “normalization of fascist tendencies” in the US At about 21:00, Roberto explains the path he took to becoming a writer/journalist and the path to Unforgetting that crystallized  around age 50, including visits to Karnes, Texas and learning about migration stories and jailing and separation of Central American children and America's historically-destructive role in Él Salvador At about 25:10, Pete compliments the ways in which Roberto seamlessly builds pathos through the nonlinear narrative, and this leads to talk of earlier Salvadoran immigration caused by Reagan and US policies in the region, as evidenced by what was once called The School of the Americas At about 28:30, Roberto talks about the ways in which Salvadorans and Central Americans are erased from telling their own stories and how organizations like FAIR have found disturbing patterns in diction that paints Central Americans as two-dimensional; Roberto also cites his own research on media narratives, written for The Columbia Journalism Review  At about 35:00, Roberto discusses the interests of the United States, especially economic ones, as catalysts in backing horrible governments in Central America and beyond, in particular in backing the Salvadoran military dictator who enacted “La Matanza,” in which 10-40,000 are said to have been killed At about 37:00, Roberto cites his book as an “only” among the “Big Four Publishers” and he talks about how hard he had to work to tell his Central American stories, as opposed to those writers who are not Central American and often tell one-sided, surface-level stories for which they are often lauded  At about 39:20, Roberto talks about his book as an exploration at the way he and other Americans look at their country and at themselves; he explicates by talking about ideas of “American exceptionalism” in movies and media At about 42:40, Roberto and Pete delve into Salvadoran “Conradesque” depictions by mainstream writers, especially the famous/infamous quote by Joan Didion-Roberto's article about her words is here At about 47:00, Pete asks Roberto about the flipside of negative and simplistic portrayals of Salvadorans-the failure to know them in society as a whole AND the lack of knowledge within the Salvadoran communities of past history and atrocities; Roberto quotes Roque Dalton and interesting poll numbers At about 48:55, Roberto's interesting take on important parts of the Salvadoran experience being “lost in translation” reminds Pete of an anecdote from the book about a well-read Salvadoran gang leader and leads to discussions of retelling and stories' and their differing context and Roberto's takes on being bilingual and bicultural At about 51:50, Roberto talks about the significance of the book's title and its connection to ancient Greek and Hannah Arendt At about 56:25, Roberto discusses his use of “re-membering” in the book and its implications and the power of rebellion in his life  At about 59:50, Roberto talks about various meanings of apocalypse and its connections to the book At about 1:02:30, Roberto explains the statistics from various institutes that place the Salvadoran “La Matanza” of 1932 as one of, or possible, the worst concentrated massacre in 20th century At about 1:04:15, Roberto discusses the Salvadoran indigenous people as by far the biggest victims in state violence and connections between Vietnam and El Salvador At about 1:05:25, Pete compliments the beautiful ending of the book with its beautiful sewing metaphor   You can now subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, and leave me a five-star review.
