Podcasts about Zakiya

A crack team of locals has a date with Innsmouth. They include: Kennedy Newell, a shell-shocked veteran; Freddy Thurman, a streetwise local bootlegger; Cora Loquillo, a medium and amateur photographer; Dr. Theo Rooke, a nervous academic; and Arthur Clark, an accountant with a sharp eye for detail. But first, they begin their search for answers, digging through the archives of Miskatonic University for clues about Innsmouth's dark and tangled history. Freddy and Arthur visit the university museum, where they encounter disturbing artifacts that hint at an inhuman past tied to the town. Meanwhile, when pride overtakes caution, Dr. Rooke is confronted with more truth than he's prepared to handle. Finally, Cora and Kennedy hold a séance in an attempt to pierce the veil and identify the strange, otherworldly presence that clings to the university grounds. In this episode, we continue our playthrough of the scenario “Escape From Innsmouth” by Kevin A. Ross and others, and published by Chaosium.

Welcome back to the fourth and final arc of Doomed To Repeat. Last time, the agents of PERENNIAL began unearthing the weathered, dusty psychiatric records of Daniel M. Freis—a descent that leads directly to the birth of Delta Green. Now, it's 1927. The U.S. Treasury Department has launched a secret operation to expose the rot festering in the coastal town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts. Whispers of inhuman rituals and impossible shapes in the fog have reached Washington. If a team can secure photographic proof of what's happening beneath the waves of Ipswich Bay, they'll get the green light from President Coolidge to authorize a federal raid. But first, they must gather that evidence. A covert task force of locals has been assembled—and as they're briefed on the mission, the true horror begins to surface. In this episode, we begin our playthrough of the scenario “Escape From Innsmouth” by Kevin A. Ross and others, and published by Chaosium.

Send us a textA chance to revisit one of my favourite books and favourite ever conversations this week. Zakiya Dalila Harris's The Other Black Girl came out in early 2021, and for once I was ahead of the curve! Right from the start, I adored this novel of workplace micro-aggression and satirical horror in the publishing industry – and I'm glad to see the world has since agreed. It's a high-concept thriller that blends the paranoia of Rosemary's Baby with the bite of Get Out – and for once it's a story that deserves those comparisons. Zakiya talks about her own background in publishing and how it informed this nightmare. We talk about discussing racism in fiction, and (in a slightly meta way) we discuss how interviews LIKE THIS ONE may actually perpetuate a degree of othering. In short, I tie myself in white millennial knots, but Zakiya is wonderfully generous. God I love this book. Some may say it's not horror. I'd disagree so much that I stuck it on my list of best horror novels ever. Let's see what you think.  Enjoy! Other books mentioned: All Her Little Secrets (2021), by Wanda M.

November 14, 2024This episode explores the importance of making room to receive support, particularly for women and communities who often give so much of themselves. We have an engaging conversation that highlights how societal conditioning can make it challenging to accept help while also emphasizing the value of community connection. Zakiya shares her journey of self-discovery and the transformative power of practices like mirror work and microdosing, which have helped her gain clarity and connect more deeply with her emotions. The discussion also touches on the significance of authenticity and how being true to oneself can foster deeper relationships and understanding. Listeners are encouraged to embrace their needs and desires, reminding each other that it's okay to step back and allow others to support them in times of stress.Thanks to S&K Tea & Coffee for their sponsorship.

A motley crew of soldiers, officers, and pilots embarks on a perilous trek through the Afghani desert to find Liam Morales. After learning the direction of the mysterious Black Valley by speaking to tribal leaders in Qluuj Khel, the officers realize they need Hyde's cooperation and agree to bring her along for the expedition. However, Afghanistan is a land fraught with danger, and it isn't long before the party finds themselves fighting for their lives. As the threats intensify, Hyde must confront the harsh question: how many of her allies is she willing to sacrifice to find her brother? And what will she do when she finally stands before “The Sleeper” in the heart of the Black Valley? This episode concludes our playthrough of the scenario “Kali Ghati” by Shane Ivey.

The agents emerge from Yosemite battered and exhausted, grappling with the toll it has exacted. Most of them have hit their breaking points, and disorders are starting to strangle their progress.

Hyde and Merit philosophize about their purpose, while Boomer and Warp try to relax.

Without psychological safety, organizations fail. Yet the mainstream narrative has tried to destroy this idea, calling anybody who fosters inclusivity “woke” “weak” and getting an unfair advantage. We'll discuss this concept, breaking down what these terms mean and why your organization's success depends on embracing them. Dr. Zakiya O.

"Dope Labs" is a podcast that mixes “hardcore science with pop culture and a healthy dose of friendship." For hosts (and friends) Titi Shodiya and Zakiya Whatley, the goal is to make science appealing, and visible, to everyone. “One of the things that's really important for Zakiya and I, is bringing science to the people,” said Shodiya on Boston Public Radio on Monday. That idea is the driving force behind a feature length planetarium film in development by "Dope Labs" and Boston's Museum of Science. The film will feature stories and scientific contributions of BIPOC scientists who audiences may not have heard about before. Funding for the film will come from NASA and the Simons Foundation. Shodiya, a materials scientist and engineer, and Whatley, a molecular biologist, created "Dope Labs" in 2019. The two met in graduate school while getting their respective Ph.D.s at Duke University. In a nod to their academic background, seasons of the podcast are called “semesters,” episodes are called “labs” and each show begins with a “recitation.” Module But topics are far from technical and dry. "Dope Labs" digs into a range of topics from the material and social science of shapewear, to a two-part episode on maternal health. “Let us find what you're already interested in and tell you about the history of this … We're just showing people that we're engaging with science everyday, all the time. And it's in places that you might not think about,” said Whatley. Whatley and Shodiya are not discouraged by the political polarization of science. They've done episodes on COVID-19 vaccines, birth control and even science denial. Some people's minds may never be changed about a science topic, said Shodiya. But for those people who want to learn more about what is true, "Dope Labs" is there. “The work that we do on 'Dope Labs' is to give them a resource with friendly voices that are going to talk to them and meet them right where they are,” she said. Part of meeting people where they're at includes showing audiences there are “many ways to be involved in STEM that don't require you to get a Ph.D.,” said Whatley. “And that's what we hope to shed light on with this film.” "Dope Labs" wrapped its fourth season in October 2022. The fifth “semester” is currently in pre-production with a launch date to be announced. People can listen to past episodes on all podcast platforms.
