Podcasts about year without

In honor of the spooky season, we present two monstrous origin stories --Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Bram Stoker's Dracula. We know when these books were written in the 19th century. But what inspired the imaginations of the rebellious teenager Mary Shelley, or the beleaguered theatrical promoter Bram Stoker? I talk with biographer Charlotte Gordon and Professors Gillen D'Arcy Wood and Ron Broglio about how “The Year Without a Summer” may have sparked storms in Mary Shelley's mind. And I talk with UC Davis professor Louis Warren about why he believes an American entertainer was the unlikely model for Count Dracula. Featuring readings by Lily Dorment and John Keating.

In this episode, Dr. Sheena Fraser is joined by Monica 'Mo' Wilde, an expert forager, research herbalist, and award-winning author of The Wilderness Cure. Mo discusses her remarkable year-long experiment, detailed in her 'Wildbiome Project', where she lived exclusively on wild, foraged foods to explore its effects on her gut microbiome. The conversation covers the rules of her challenge, the incredible biodiversity of her diet, which included over 300 plant species, and the significant health changes she experienced, such as effortless weight loss and shifts in key gut bacteria. Analyzing her microbiome results throughout the seasons, they explore the profound impact of a biodiverse, ancestral diet on gut health, inflammation, and overall well-being, highlighting a stark contrast to modern eating habits and underscoring the benefits of reconnecting with nature's pantry.This podcast is brought to you in collaboration with the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.Disclaimer: The content in this podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

1816 : The Year Without A SummerTrapped indoors by torrential rain, legendary writers Byron, Percy and Mary Shelley and their friends, Polidori and Claire, search for inspiration by the gloomy Lake Geneva. But things fall apart the longer they are stuck together... Polidori's diary is brought to life in the 1816: The Year Without a Summer musical.Nat Riches + Natasha Atkinson; Co-writers

If you're feeling the pressure to squeeze every last drop out of the year even though you're already running on fumes, this episode is for you. I'm going to show you how to finish the year aligned, not burned out, and why your best move right now might be to slow down on purpose! This episode is not about making you do more. It's about guiding you to choose better and to start thinking of this season as a bridge, not a cliff. Together, we'll identify what's actually working in your business right now, the quiet wins you're probably overlooking, and we'll release the stuff that's stealing your energy without giving much back. Then, I'll show you exactly how I shift my routines and habits now, before January, so I'm not showing up to the new year with a blank page and burnout baggage. Finally, we'll talk about why saying no to 10 good ideas in favor of one bold aligned move might be the most strategic thing you do all year. This is about getting realigned with what you actually want from your life and your work. It's about redefining what "finishing strong" means, and it might not look anything like what Instagram is telling you it should. So if you're ready to finish the year on purpose with clarity, with boundaries, and with momentum that actually lasts, click play!

First, they recap the action from both WWE Palooza and AEW All Out. Despite the "you sold out" chants and online frustration, the numbers don't lie: Gainbridge Fieldhouse packed in 15,176 fans. The guys discuss the disconnect between fan sentiment and ticket sales.Next, the conversation turns to the "Saudi Mania" controversy. Lee reminds everyone that the road to WrestleMania goes through the Royal Rumble—an event already established in Saudi Arabia—and points out that TKO investors have seen this coming for months.Then, in a classic moment, Lee takes a pause and we all go back in time. For those of us old enough to remember, he brings up The Year Without a Santa Claus, where the iconic Heat Miser and Winter Miser stole the show. Finally, with talk of Stephanie McMahon's 2026 Hall of Fame induction, the hosts have no choice but to recognize the sacrifices and calculated risks of Vince McMahon, without whom modern wrestling would not exist.Saudi Mania, Wrestlepalooza and AEW All OutOn this episode of WrestlingTracks, Lee Houston and David Burton tackle the controversial reports of WrestleMania potentially heading to Saudi Arabia. While many fans have voiced complaints, the guys break down the business reality of WWE's partnership deal. They argue that if events like the Royal Rumble are already part of the agreement, WrestleMania is the next logical—and perhaps inevitable—step.Plus, with a massive weekend of wrestling on the horizon, the guys are gearing up to preview both WWE's Wrestlepalooza and AEW's All Out.

Memoirists do the generous work of letting us into their lives, and then there are ones like Melissa Febos who also graciously entertain all the new questions their work inspires. Melissa lets me in on the elements of her life and experiences that I’m curious about, from people’s reaction to her job as a dominatrix (as documented in her book Whipsmart) to her year-long trial of celibacy (the focus of her newest book, The Dry Season). Melissa is a writer both precise and elaborate, and I can’t help but compare her to many of the literary greats. We trace the roots of her compulsive behaviors and discuss how seeking new ideals for love and connection can help to find passion in the everyday — even in a conversation.

What happens when five brilliant, rebellious Romantics take refuge from a climate catastrophe in a lakeside villa — and decide to conjure monsters?In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, we sit down with acclaimed playwright, screenwriter and novelist Jule Selbo to discuss her gripping new play, Mary Shelley: The Year Without Summer, premiering in Ojai on August 8, running through August 17th at Matilija Auditorium, directed by Richard Camp as the Ojai Performing Arts Theater's summer production.Set in the summer of 1816, amid the eerie aftermath of a volcanic eruption that blotted out the sun, the play captures a charged gathering at Villa Diodati, where Mary Shelley, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, Dr. Polidori, and Mary's stepsister Claire Clairmont engage in a dark game: Who can write the best horror story?From this stormy retreat, two modern mythologies are born —Mary's Frankenstein, which redefined horror and science fiction, and Polidori's Vampyre, the prototype for the seductive bloodsucker that haunts our popular imagination to this day.Jule shares her insights into dramatizing these iconic figures, why the tensions of that fateful summer still resonate, and how creativity thrives in chaos. A must-listen for literature lovers, theater fans, and anyone who enjoys a good ghost story.We talk about how these gothic tales speak to the modern imagination, writing for money and much more. (We do not talk about old English desserts, Arthur Rimbaud or folk dancing.)For more information, check out OPAT's website at OjaiTheater.org or Jule Selbo's site at JuleSelbo.com.

Do we get the nonfiction we deserve? LATimes book critic Bethanne Patrick wrestles with this question through five new books that both mirror and address our fractured psyche. From Melissa Fibos' choice of celibacy over toxic sexual romance to a lone wolf crossing impossible borders, all these works expose a world grappling with isolation, AI empires, and the collapse of meaningful discourse. Whether it's Thomas Chatterton Williams's critique of wokeness, Damon Young's biting anthology of new black comedy, or Karen Hao's disturbing portrait of OpenAI as our new imperial reality ( Tomorrow's show features a full interview with Hao), each book reflects our deeper crisis: the inability to connect authentically in our age of social isolation and anxiety. The Dry Season: A Memoir of Pleasure in a Year Without Sex - Melissa Fibos. Melissa Fibos, a writer with a history of intense romantic fixations, realizes she's addicted to the chase rather than genuine connection. She embarks on a year-long celibacy experiment, allowing masturbation and fantasies but avoiding all dating and partnered sex. It's a transformative journey of empowerment as Fibos discovers authentic pleasure in solitude, food, and simple experiences, ultimately meeting her future wife before completing the full year.Summer of Our Discontent: The Age of Certainty and The Demise of Discourse - Thomas Chatterton Williams. This multiracial critic argues that America's obsession with racial categories perpetuates the very divisions we claim to fight, insisting that race is purely a social construct with no biological basis. Writing from his perspective as an American expat in France, Williams contends that woke discourse and "correct" language distract from addressing real structural problems. His book challenges readers to move beyond tired black-versus-white frameworks toward more nuanced conversations about power and identity.That's How They Get You: An Unruly Anthology of Black American Humor - Edited by Damon Young This collection features sharp satirical pieces from top Black American writers who skewer everything from Karen culture to Disney's racial blindness to tech company exploitation. Contributors include Mateo Askaripour (who wrote the acclaimed "Black Buck") offering biting commentary on workplace racism and cultural appropriation. The anthology demonstrates how humor serves as both weapon and shield, allowing writers to expose systemic absurdities while maintaining their sanity in an often hostile world.Lone Wolf: Walking the Line Between Civilization and Wildness - Adam Weymouth In 2011, a wolf named Slavc traveled over 1,000 miles from Slovenia to the Italian Alps, becoming the first wolf in that region for decades and eventually establishing a pack of over 100. Weymouth follows this remarkable journey to explore how artificial barriers—from the Iron Curtain to Trump's border wall—prevent both wildlife and human refugees from reaching safety. The book uses the wolf's migration as a lens to examine what happens when the wild refuses to respect human boundaries and how life persistently seeks ways to thrive despite our attempts to control it.Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI - Karen Hao. Based on 90 interviews with current and former OpenAI executives plus dozens more from competing tech companies. Hao argues that without proper regulation and transparency, AI could evolve into a modern version of the British East India Company—a technological monopoly that serves elite interests while reshaping global power structures. Tomorrow's show features a full interview with Hao.

Hour 1: Ike, Spike and Fritz open up the show by discussing the Eagles losses on defense and if the offense can be the group that gets the team back to the Super Bowl.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you won the Super Bowl. But how about signing a player, Howie? We joke, but as C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Milton Williams, Josh Sweat, Isaiah Rodgers and Oren Burks have flown the coop, the Eagles have only imported Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Kenyon Green and still have holes at cornerback, safety and along the edge, to say nothing of the offensive line and Dallas Goedert's uncertain status.Join Zach Berman and Bo Wulf as they try to make this the best year yet.

In this free-for-all-Friday Trent discusses the unexpected effects of the unusual summer of 1816.

On April 10, 1815 the most powerful volcanic eruption in human history was recorded on an island in Indonesia. The ash cloud that formed with its explosion was as large and the entire country of the United States and hovered close to 12 miles above the earth, reaching the stratosphere. The results were catastrophic. It resulted in major climate changes, where in most of the world, summer never came. Wildlife and humans alike were left without sources of food while the landscapes changed around them. Roughly 100,000 people died in the immediately aftermath, but the death toll is estimated to be closer to 1 million around the globe. The time following the eruption has now been remembered in history as, The Year Without a Summer. Come see us in Joshua Tree! Buy tickets here.
