In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Guelph, Ontario author Karen Smythe about Karen's novel, A Town With No Noise (Palimpsest Press, 2025). Samara and J., a struggling young couple, are off to J.'s birthplace, Upton Bay, a small town turned upscale theatre and winery destination. Sam has been hired by an editor friend to write a promotional piece about the place while she and J. stay with his grandfather Otto, a prominent businessman in his day. But their visit does not go as planned. Sam's explorations of Upton's tourist attractions lead her to ugly truths behind the quaint little town's façade—discoveries that are counterpointed with vignettes of the town's wealthy, elderly ruling class, painting a different picture than the one Sam's friend expects her to provide. Tensions between Sam and J. worsen as J.'s true nature emerges and Sam begins to question both his values and his family's past—especially after Otto tells them stories about his time as a German soldier during WW2. Back in the city, Sam's opinions and judgments about what is right and wrong are tested when a shocking truth surfaces about her grandmother's flight from Norway after the war, profoundly changing Sam's understanding of who she is and who she wants to become. In A Town with No Noise, fact and fiction combine to ask difficult questions about the communities we build, questions that are as relevant today as ever: Who stays? Who is chased away? And who decides? About Karen Smythe: Karen Smythe is the author of the novel This Side of Sad (Goose Lane Editions, 2017), the story collection Stubborn Bones (Polestar/Raincoast, 2001), and the critical study Figuring Grief: Gallant, Munro, and the Poetics of Elegy (McGill-Queen's U.P., 1992).

When Bearing Witness: Becoming a Trauma-Informed Storyteller
Send us a textIn this episode of When Bearing Witness, Dr. Desmond Upton Patton invites us into a conversation about humility, listening, and the ethics of digital storytelling. He shares what he has learned from years of research at the intersection of social work, technology, and racial justice. And he doesn't stop at analysis, he challenges us to examine our own assumptions and shows how deep listening can disrupt bias and reshape how we understand digital expression.A researcher, social worker, and AI ethicist, Dr. Patton explores how grief is often misread as aggression, and how those misreadings can escalate both online and offline violence. But the solutions, he reminds us, are not just technical, they are relational. He offers a model of trauma-informed storytelling rooted in cultural humility, reflexivity, and active listening.We all bring our own lens to storytelling. But to do this work ethically, especially in nonprofit storytelling and storytelling for social impact, we have to slow down and ask hard questions: Am I the right person to tell this story? What information is missing? Who do I need to engage with, and how do I do that in a trustworthy and ethical way?About Dr. Desmond Upton PattonDr. Desmond Upton Patton is a leading expert at the intersection of social work, technology, and racial justice, known for his groundbreaking research on how social media impacts grief, trauma, and violence in communities of color. A Penn Integrates Knowledge University Professor with appointments across social policy, communication, and psychiatry, he developed the Contextual Analysis of Social Media (CASM) to address bias in AI by centering cultural nuance and lived experience. His work has shaped national conversations on digital violence and empathy, informed tech safety policies at companies like Twitter and Spotify, and been featured in The New York Times, Nature, and NPR.Connect with Dr. Desmond Upton PattonSafeLab | LinkedIn | BlueSkyAbout Host Maria Bryan Maria Bryan is a trauma-informed storytelling trainer.

“When a patient comes in for a routine outpatient echo, we’ll be able to help with diagnosis and reduce the misdiagnosis at that point, number one,” Ultromics’ Founder and CEO Ross Upton explains to Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Matt Henriksson about the initial benefits of EchoGo for heart failure and cardiac amyloidosis. In this episode of the Vanguards of Health Care podcast, Upton also delves into the future of diagnosing and treating heart failure with artificial intelligence, saying it can additionally “really accurately phenotype them, and so the clinician would understand after the echo is done what treatments or what next diagnostic tests the patient needs, and they would understand it there and then without having to go through and try and figure out the pieces of the puzzle.” Also tune in to learn how Ultromics plans to use to recently announced Series C financing as it commercializes EchoGo for heart failure and cardiac amyloidosis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does it really mean to travel authentically in a world dominated by filtered Instagram perfection? Buster Upton, a 26-year-old Australian adventurer, has the honest answer—and it's not what you might expect.From his spontaneous childhood road trips with his adventure-loving mother to finding himself enrolled in a Finnish school at 16 (instead of dropping out), Buster's approach to travel has always been refreshingly genuine. At just 18, he quit his first construction job, used his dual Irish citizenship, and set off to backpack across Europe—a pattern that would define his approach to exploring the world.The magic of Buster's storytelling lies in his willingness to share both the highlights and the gritty reality of long-term travel. Standing amid the haunting remnants of Chernobyl, participating in Laos' water-drenched Buddhist New Year celebrations, or finding himself stranded in a Filipino town with no water or electricity—these experiences reveal the true essence of exploration. As Buster puts it, "90% of backpacking isn't glamorous," but those challenges make the journey worthwhile.Unlike the travel influencers who portray laptop-driven nomadic lifestyles, Buster's method is beautifully straightforward: work hard in construction back home, save aggressively, then purchase a one-way ticket to somewhere new. His preference for Couchsurfing with locals rather than staying in hotels offers authentic cultural immersion that can't be captured in a carefully staged photo.For Buster, adventure means embracing the unknown with a hint of fear, stepping completely out of your comfort zone, and becoming "a drop in the ocean" of someone else's normal life. His stories will inspire you to look beyond the perfect Instagram shot and discover what travel really means—connecting with the world as it actually exists.Ready to rethink what adventure truly means?

Jerome Upton still remembers the silence that descends just before a game begins. As captain of his college team, he'd scan the huddle, gauge nerves, and ask, “What does winning look like today?” “That's where I learned the power of shared goals,” Upton tells us. Years later, the Genworth Financial CFO opens staff meetings similarly—then hands teammates room to execute.The first bold play of his career came soon after graduation. At a small insurer, Upton stunned mentors by jumping to KPMG. “I needed wider fields,” he explains. Eight years of audits sharpened his technical vision, yet the move that truly stretched him arrived when GE Capital—Genworth's predecessor—offered a divisional‑controller seat with global scope. Overnight his “team” expanded ten‑fold, teaching him to win through trust rather than touch‑every‑file oversight.International assignments followed: boardrooms in Europe, investor roadshows in Asia, client visits in Latin America. Hearing customers critique products in real time “made finance feel less like a ledger and more like a heartbeat,” he says. That perspective proved vital during Genworth's post‑crisis crossroads. Tasked with raising capital quickly, Upton orchestrated a minority IPO of a foreign subsidiary, executed at speed and premium valuation. The deal slashed leverage and revealed hidden asset value.Today his playbook balances share buybacks and debt reduction with growth bets such as CareScout. Multi‑year downside modeling safeguards the core, while his Gretzkyesque mantra—skate where the puck is going—keeps him focused on tomorrow's opportunity.

In this episode we will continue and conclude our discussion of Emory Upton. We left off with the beginning of Upton's around the world journey. Upton traveled overseas on a mission to observe the armies of Asia and Europe. It was an important time for Upton. His observations of some of the most modern and, in his mind, backwards armies of the world, allowed him to work out his own notions of how the United States should reform its Army. Inspired by what he saw, Upton wanted a thoroughly professional Army that met the needs of the country. While inspired by, in particular, the German model, he fashioned a system that would correspond to American traditions. Unfortunately, due to health issues, he took his life in 1881. Upton's shadow continued to be thrown across American military history. He is an important bellwether for the degree of introspection that was occurring not only in Upton's mind, but his peers as well. Have a question, comment, concern, or compliment?

We are continuing our exploration of professionalization and what kind of Army would emerge through a long period of introspection. In this episode we are going to explore these issues through the eyes of Emory Upton. A protege of William T. Sherman, Upton's experiences in the Civil War would trigger an intense interest in tactics and the shape of the Army in the future. This episode will focus on the formative stage of Upton's career - his experiences at West Point, serving in the Army during the Civil War, and navigating the pitfalls of the post war army, and how these fueled his interests.

[While Tim gets off the mat after a bout with a vaccine-resistant strain of the flu this week, we go back to April 2018 for this classic ARCHIVE RE-RELEASE with the pied piper of classic football history!] Upton Bell grew up at the knee of the National Football League's second-ever commissioner – his father, the legendary Bert Bell – who not only saved professional football from financial ruin in the aftermath of World War II, but also became one of its greatest innovators. Originator of the iconic phrase “on any given Sunday,” the senior Bell created lasting contributions to the NFL, such as the first pro football draft, scheduling parity, television revenue-sharing, and sudden-death overtime. For the junior Upton, it was a priceless childhood amidst pro football's formative years – begun while watching his father draw up the league schedule each year using dominoes at the kitchen table – steeped in the personalities, lore, and economic pragmatism of a game that would ultimately dominate the American professional sports landscape like no other. In a seemingly preordained career, Upton Bell (Present at the Creation: My Life in the NFL and the Rise of America's Game) has been an owner (the wacky World Football League's Charlotte Hornets), a general manager (the NFL's New England [née AFL Boston] Patriots), a player personnel director (the 1960s NFL-dominant Baltimore Colts), and long-time sports commentator/talk radio host – remaining a true and insightful “football guy” throughout. In this very revealing conversation, Bell joins Tim Hanlon to discuss his personal and professional journey through the sport he loves; the lessons learned and insights gleaned from his unique purview into the pro game's coming-of-age era; the current state of the NFL and where it might be headed; and heretofore untold stories about the stranger-than-fiction WFL. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Present at the Creation: My Life in the NFL and the Rise of America's Game (2017): https://amzn.to/40FW7Ww SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS) https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Yinzylvania (20% off promo code: GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE): https://yinzylvania.com/GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable
