Mike Mulligan and David Haugh were joined by GQ writer Matthew Roberson to share insight on his recent story on Cubs star center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong.

I'll begin with a secret: I never cared much about the nuts and bolts of personal finance (the means), but I was rather enamored with the idea of a financially secure life (the ends). In 2018, climbing media was still full of narratives glorifying the poor dirtbag ideal, but that didn't align with my lived experience. I wanted to climb hard, while also yearning for meaningful work and financial security. That's the first half of this story.  Support this project: Buy Me a CoffeeSubscribe to the newsletter: SUBSCRIBE ME!Show Notes and Links at Clippingchains.com

Tony McNamara is an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and playwright, whose most recent film, POOR THINGS, earned his second Academy Award nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay. POOR THINGS marked the second creative collaboration between McNamara and director Yorgos Lanthimos, and it is the third collaboration for McNamara and star Emma Stone. The film was released in theaters in December 2023 and was the second-most Oscar-nominated film of the year. McNamara's unique blend of humor, drama, and social commentary can also be seen in the Academy Award-nominated film THE FAVOURITE, which was also directed by Lanthimos and starred Stone. The film earned him a BAFTA Award and an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay. In his latest project, THE ROSES, the picture-perfect facade of a couple crumbles, igniting a tinderbox of competition and resentment, after the husband's professional dreams are shattered. In this interview, we talk about his approach to historical and adapted material, the state of comedy films, advice for writers, his latest project, THE ROSES, and much more. Want more?

Dr. Stacey Hettes joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about therapeutic writing and how she crafted a memoir about childhood sexual abuse without revictimizing herself, metabolizing childhood trauma, inviting readers into our physiological response, the role of our limbic systems, deciding whether to share specifics about abuse in our manuscripts, italicizing difficult material for readers so they can decide, approaching a story of child sexual abuse in a protective way, putting therapy into our memoirs, demonstrating our character's progress in our narrative, remembering we can write beautifully about hard things, and her new memoir Dispatches from the Couch.   Also in this episode: -sharing a memoir with family -the amygdala and child trauma victims -deciding whether to share specifics about abuse   Books mentioned in this episode: -Bodywork by Melissa Febos -Wintering by Catherine May -Writing a Woman's Life by Caroline G.

She holds a PhD from the University of California, Riverside, and is the youngest winner to date of the Milliken Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Science.

She relishes in shared struggle and shared discovery, even when the topic is long-buried child sexual abuse. Reemerging from the shadows of her past was only possible once she resolved to carry the story found in her Debut memoir, Dispatches from the Couch, into the light.

We have published 120 episodes since 2019. For this new season, we thought it would be a good idea to look back on some of the highlights of our conversations and select 20 episodes that resonated with veterans, service members, military families, and the civilians who support them.But first up, you'll hear from some of the folks at Home Base who wake up every day with the same mission in mind, no matter what they do at the Center of Excellence in the Navy Yard and beyond. For this episode, you will hear a brief conversation with the Admissions Coordinator at Home Base, Zachary Morin. Born and raised in Massachusetts, Zach spent two years serving with AmeriCorps in the Miami-Dade Public Schools, working with middle school students on literacy, social and emotional development, as well as civic engagement. Upon completing his service, Zachary returned to New England to lead the College Ready Communities program in Northern Rhode Island. Here, his work included holistic programming for vulnerable youth populations and overall community engagement initiatives. He also has a creative/performative side, which he will talk about.Following my conversation with Zach, you'll hear an episode from 2023 with the Pulitzer Prize and Emmy-winning cartoonist, Garry Trudeau. Garry is also an Army Commander's Award for Public Service honoree. In this conversation, Garry tells us that not only did his dad and grandfather both serve, but they were also both physicians. He recounts an eye-opening visit to Walter Reed Medical Center, with stories of injury and resilience that not only informed his storytelling but have had lasting impacts on him. As a big fan of author Sebastian Junger, he discusses the innate need for the tribe to survive, and explains a bit of his creative process. Part Two will come shortly.Run To Home Base: Join Ron and his team and sign up individually or on another team at the 16th annual Run To Home Base on July 26th, 2025, at Fenway Park!

In this epic ride of an episode. Writer, and podcaster Travis Sivart joins me for a full-spectrum conversation. About the magic of imagination, and the failures of modern society. Veering into the deeply nerdy joy of seeing the world through a storyteller's lens. From Star Trek to ancient empires, capitalism to coffee. This episode winds through the heart of speculative fiction. Lands squarely in the real world. Where the hard truths about creativity, struggle, and meaning are waiting to be told.We talked about craft, community, burnout. Why writing "like a society" needs better blueprints. A perfect blend of deep thought, dad jokes, and unapologetic geekery.Where to Find the Guest?

A still active internationally touring professional Canadian Hip hop artist and Spoken word poet of Trinidad & Tobago extract, his field research employs a multi-modal ethnography of Reggae, Rastafari, Afrobeat and Hip-hop performance communities and related social justice movements across the African diaspora, with an emphasis on the black Atlantic nexus between Jamaica and Ghana. We recently met while he was in Ghana working on his forthcoming book, Dancehall Diaspora: Rastafari and Rudeness in the African Postcolony, thanks to consumate connector, Muhammida el Muhajir (https://glocalcitizens.fireside.fm/guests/muhammida-el-muhajir).

⁠EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE GREAT⁠ in Theaters now!Director Jon S BairdWriter Steven RogersThe Smart family's life takes a dramatic turn when tragedy forces them to confront their oversized dreams, struggles with identity and chaotic regional theater life. As theater manager parents (Allison Janney and Bryan Cranston) work to support their two sons — a hunky football star (Jack Champion) and his flamboyant, theater-loving younger brother (Benjamin Evan Ainsworth) — unexpected circumstances compel them to move in with Janney's estranged brother (Chris Cooper). What begins as a temporary arrangement soon unravels years of familial tension, prompting each member to reevaluate their place in the world and in their relationships.Director Jon S. Baird orchestrates this warmly observant comedy-drama with a perfect balance of sharp humor and poignant family dynamics. The powerhouse cast delivers nuanced performances, with Janney and Cranston demonstrating once again why they are among the most versatile actors working today. Their chemistry grounds the film's journey through artistic ambition and life's unexpected detours, while Cooper adds layers of complexity as the long-estranged brother. Beyond its headline-grabbing ensemble, the film's tender exploration of how families navigate change and disappointment resonates with authenticity as these deeply human characters stumble toward reconciliation and renewal in this stirring celebration of life's messy beauty.—Jarod NeeceDirector ⁠Jon S.

Five days a week acclaimed interviewer Tom Power sits down with the artists, writers, actors and musicians who define pop culture. In this episode, Tom chats with the cartoonist and writer Gabrielle Drolet. A few years ago, Gabrielle developed a condition that made her unable to use her hands. It kept getting worse over time, and as Gabrielle searched for a diagnosis, she also had to find new ways to make art. Her new memoir “Look Ma, No Hands” is the story of an artist coming to terms with disability, adapting to the unexpected, and ultimately learning to express herself again. Gabrielle joins Tom to talk about those experiences that informed her memoir. More episodes of Q with Tom Power are available here: https://link.mgln.ai/qwtp

We all have stories. Some we share openly—and some we bury deep. But what if the very breakthrough we're praying for is hidden behind a conversation we're afraid to have?In this powerful episode of Visibly Fit, I sit down with BJ Communicates—an author, speaker, and communications coach who knows firsthand the weight and freedom found in speaking the truth in love. We talk about the healing power of hard conversations—what they are, why we avoid them, and how they might be the key to living a more authentic, healthy, and whole life.BJ opens up about his personal relationship with his father, what he wishes he'd known before it was too late, and how that loss birthed his compelling urban fiction series designed to reflect our untold stories. We also explore why people hold back in relationships, how to speak up without being overly assertive, and what genuine communication looks like in marriage, parenting, and friendships.If you've ever felt misunderstood, distant from someone you love, or just tired of carrying emotional weight in silence, this conversation is for you. It's about healing from the inside out, restoring relationships, and honoring God through our communication.Let this episode be your permission slip to speak up, lean in, and love betterChapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[00:38] Podcast Introduction[01:21] Topic and Guest Introduction[04:02] Introduction to Hard Conversations[07:03] BJ's Personal Story with His Father[09:58] Defining Hard Conversations[14:37] Healing Through Communication[16:10] Navigating Conflicting Perspectives[20:10] BJ's Urban Fiction Series Explained[23:45] Why We Can't Move Forward Without Healing[26:14] Inspiration Behind Writing[27:57] Relating to Angel: A Story of Father Wounds[29:35] A Real-Life Breakdown That Led to Breakthrough[32:13] God Gave Us Communication for Connection [34:05] Closing Thoughts and PrayerResources mentioned:

This conversation paired with Deborah's creative bravery is sure to inspire, and have you setting your own outrageous goals. Deborah's first feature, VIRGIN starring Elisabeth Moss and Robin Wright, was nominated for two 2004 Independent Spirit Awards, including Best Actress for Elisabeth Moss and the John Cassavetes Award. Her second feature, “Hounddog,” starring Dakota Fanning and Robin Wright was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. Deborah's third feature, “Split,” won Best of Show at the 2016 Female Eye Film Festival.

Since then, she has directed episodes of STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, FBI: INTERNATIONAL, OUTER RANGE & TALES OF THE WALKING DEAD. Deborah is developing her next features PILGRIM'S WILDERNESS, THE CASSANDRA & DIRT RHAPSODY, as well as her series A WITHC IN HARLEM, and limited series RADIOACTIVE MOTHERS.
