Podcasts about truly madly guilty

What would you do if you knew the day, hour, minute and method of your death? How would it change the way you spent today? Tomorrow? Because that time, that moment - exists for all of us. Today Osher speaks with Lianne Moriarty, one of the most successful authors in the world, certainly most successful to ever come out of Australia. She wrote Big Little Lies, Truly Madly Guilty, Nine Perfect Strangers and many, many more. Her latest book “Here One Moment” dives into what the knowledge of your own death would do for your life, and even how you approach free will. ‌ If you have any questions or comments, ask them here ‌ Sign up to the newsletter here Hosted on Acast.

Tive o privilégio de entrevistar o Joel Dicker, super autor suíço que há anos me encantou logo com o primeiro livro ("A Verdade sobre o caso Harry Quebert") e veio a Portugal para falar sobre o 7º e mais recente ("Animal Selvagem"). Falou nos livros que escreveu e naqueles que adorou e recomenda. Lá vamos nós aumentar a lista de livros por ler. Mas vale a pena. Os livros que escolheu: Gente pobre, Doistoievski; A Promessa, Romain Gary; A Bela do Senhor (da série Valereux), Albert Cohen; Philip Roth: A Mancha Humana e Goodbye Columbus. Outras referências: Niklas Natt Och Dag: 1793; 1794; 1795; Educação Europeia, Romain Gary; White dog, Romain Gary; Philip Roth, A biografia, Blake Bailey; Os que recomendei: Truly Madly Guilty, Liane Moriarty; Shuggie Bain, Douglas Stuart.

In today's episode Leanne and Chelle chat their way through everything written by Liane Moriaty, bestselling Australian Fiction author. Leanne and Chelle love a good plot twist and Liane Moriaty is masterful as blindsiding her audience. The Books: Nine Perfect Strangers Apple's Never Fall Big Little Lies What Alice Forgot The Husband's Secret Truly Madly Guilty Other Mentions: Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers were both turned into a made for tv mini series although BLL was extended into a 2 season mini series. Liane also wrote The Hypnotist's Love Story; The Last Anniversary; and, Three Wishes. Jaclyn Moriaty writes fiction for young readers. Nicola Moriaty, the youngest sister, wrote The Fifth Letter which Chelle referred to which is general fiction and had her captivated too. Leanne and Chelle wondered which other books of Lianne's have been optioned. We have since found an article dated 2017 that stating that What Alice Forgot; The Husband's Secret; and, Truly Madly Guilty had all been optioned. Further investigation revealed that Truly Madly Guilty is in development. It appears on IMDB that The Hypnotist's Love Story was released in 2019 starring Heather Graham and Jane Seymour however it only shows that there is one episode so may have had production stalled through the pandemic. Remember to keep reading and we'll see you Between The Lines.

Welcome back, friend!  In this episode we are speaking about the connection between food, your body, and your caregivers, particularly your mom. I've mentioned several times over the past episodes that there is a connection but I've never taken a deep dive look at it for you. And today that's just what we are doing! I have plans to bring on guest experts and have a deeper discussion on this, so stayed tuned for that. When it's live I will include a link to that episode  in the show notes.  This episode may bring up some big and intense emotions. If that happens, please remember to be gentle with yourself. All your feelings are valid and when experienced last on average 90 seconds. If that means you need to pause this conversation and come back to it, please do that. If it means you need to skip this conversation, please do and come back in the future when you are in a state to best receive this information. If you are ready to learn about the relationship you have with food and your body and how that is connected to your mamma and  your relationship with her, keep listening.Mentioned On The ShowHave a question for the 1 year anniversary episode?Use this form   or leave me a voice message here Want to chat with me about working together?Link to Sabrina's calendar to schedule our callInstagramFacebookLive Healthily Ever After FB GroupAttachment Workbook: Christina Reese, PhD, LCPCLink to the meta-analysisApples Never Fall by Liane MoriartyAlso by Liane Moriarty: Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, What Alice Forgot, Three Wishes, Truly Madly Guilty, The Husband's Secret

In our final full ep of the Meryl Season™ we follow Our Lady of the Pod to Monterey, CA, where she’s doing the most on Big Little Lies. But before we get there we discuss “Chick Lit” (or should we say "beach reads"?) and do a quick stopover in Australia to visit the works and (extremely boring) life of Liane Moriarty.   Books mentioned:  Liane Moriarty: Nine Perfect Strangers, Truly Madly Guilty, Big Little Lies; Judith Krantz, Scruples; Helen Fielding, Bridget Jones’s Diary; Catherine Alliott, The Old Girl Network.   Resources:  Judith Krantz obituary Jennifer Weiner profile in the New Yorker.

In this episode we break down the pilot episode of Big Little Lies, which was created and written by David E. Kelly. The series premiered on February 19, 2017, on HBO, and the second season premiered on June 9, 2019. The title of the pilot episode is “Somebody’s Dead.”   As always, we take a look at the (HBO) description: “Based on Liane Moriarty’s bestselling book, and featuring Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Shailene Woodley, this darkly comedic series tells the tale of three mothers whose seemingly perfect lives unravel to the point of murder.” We also highlight some of the other novels by Moriarty (including one titled Truly Madly Guilty), and Mike almost makes the mistake of saying that Soundgarden (not Savage Garden) is the band that performs the song “Truly Madly Deeply.”   We also discuss the beautiful and stylized look and feel of the show. This is achieved through the unique use of music throughout the episode (all of which is available to stream on this fantastic Spotify playlist), and the excellent directing of Jean-Marc Vallée. Vallée directed the entire first season, as well as season one of the HBO series Sharp Objects.   Additionally, we analyze storytelling structure of the show. One element that stands out is the use of a detective investigating the crime that occurs at the end of the season as a way to build suspense. Another is the use of foreshadowing through some of the music in the episode, as well as some of the lines and incidents hinting toward the effects of physical abuse on women.   In addition to our detailed breakdown of the episode, we conclude the podcast with a game of Two Truths and a Big Little Lie.   For more information and to contact us, check out our social media pages: Facebook @YouMeAndTV, Twitter @YouMeAndTVPod, and Instagram @youmeandtvpodcast.

This week we’re talking brand new titles, some oldies but goodies and a few bookish surprises. You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us: a brand new release finally in hand, and a bookish Christmas tradition. Next, we tackle what we are currently reading, a few brand new releases as well as a bunch of goodness from the back list. This week we spend some time discussing how our reading habits change during the holidays, both in amount and substance. As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands: a rich-family inheritance drama, and a time-travel-esque (no actual time travel involved) book that surprised me. Time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode.

You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us: a surprise book present, an accessory to make binge-reading the next big thing, and choosing books for a trip. Next, we tackle what we are currently reading, just two titles from each of the three of us because that still gives you a whole stack to check out. Our deep-dive this week delves deep into the ins and outs of running a book club. And this episode is for you whether you have a group of friends that meet at a coffee shop each month or you are looking for a group of bookish friends on the internet so you can “book club” in your PJs! We even toss around some ideas for those of us (like Meredith and Kaytee) who are “book-club challenged” in that our inner rebel shows up whenever someone says we have to read a certain title. As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands. This week we have some classic dude-friendly literature, a lovely little fun romp, and a sweeping American and African family story.

Meredith, Susan, and Tara discuss book banning along with some of their favorite banned books. Do you think books should ever be banned?
