The Shakespearean Shrew
Brotherly…Love: The Lion in Winter
Keeping it all in the family, yeah, always a creepy aspect of royal families, but how does a fraternal relationship off stage impact a familial relationship on stage? Is the competition real, an act, or something in between? How do actors find camaraderie and community in spite of, or perhaps because of, the fierce competition for roles? Find out in this episode as we sit down to talk with fan (and shrew) favorite Justin Marlow, and bright, shiny, and new faces to OSP and seniors at OU, Ethan Walker and Granger Lusk.

The War on Cars
John Mulaney, Natasha Lyonne and the Battle of the Bike Lanes
Recently, on an episode of the Netflix show Everybody's Live with John Mulaney, the subject turned to bike lanes. Or rather, the subject was turned to bike lanes by Natasha Lyonne. The actress, writer, director and producer said that bike lanes should be "shut down" and claimed that there is no space for them in Manhattan. Journalist Alissa Walker of Torched was on Everybody's Live as a "public transit expert" to talk about Uber, but soon found herself — as a public-transit-riding Los Angeles resident — defending bike lanes and explaining the rational apportionment of urban space to some pretty famous New...

38|家与街头很近,但谁让回家的路那么远?
|本期内容在刚来到国外时,我们和许多留学生一样,都被街上随处可见流浪汉所震撼。特别是疫情发生之后,经济的下滑和失业率的上升,更使得街头的流浪者多了起来。在美国,每年有超过50万的人因为经济、身体或精神疾病等原因流落街头。曾经我们也以为,流浪者要么是有一个非常悲惨的人生,要么是有一些不可饶恕的伤害自身或他人的恶习,但一旦放下成见去倾听他们的故事,就会发现流浪者中的许多人都跟我们一样有着普普通通的昨天,只是一个不留神,摔了一跤,滚下楼梯,反应过来时,却再也没了重来的力气。因为无家可归,流浪者不得不深夜在街头游走,在地铁站里过夜,在排气口上睡觉取暖,甚至在街头支起帐篷,这些行为似乎和我们以往直觉所认知的“美丽城市”形象不符。由于对流浪者的偏见,许多城市里的其他居民也对流浪汉的存在感到担忧甚至害怕。这些固有的认知催生了许多让流浪汉本来艰难的生活更加雪上加霜的政策与设计,比如说反露营的规划条例和许多敌意建筑与防御性设计。然而社会保障资源的不足让这些恶意的政策和设计都只能是掩耳盗铃,流浪者不会因为驱逐而消失,他们只会不断地在一次次驱逐中,逐渐丧失生活的勇气的尊严,跌入更深的谷底。那么,设计能如何帮助流浪者呢?许多设计师,公益组织,政府机构都做了许多的尝试。看过了许多不同的案例之后,我们可能要消极地说:设计也许不能解决流浪汉的问题。但要让他们生活得更有尊严,更勇敢,从而重新开始也需要城市的设计与管理的共同努力。你对流浪者有什么看法?你认为设计能如何帮助无家可归的人们?欢迎留言跟我们分享!请不要忘记订阅口头拼贴,有任何的想法或建议都可以通过微博、微信公众号或邮件来和我们交流讨论!|时间轴02:30 城市中流浪者的定义与现状08:48 流浪者为什么流浪?10:30 故事一:失业的养马人18:48 故事二:失去家庭倚靠的女生20:21 故事三:酗酒成瘾的金融工作者23:52 住房保障与流浪的关联26:26 流浪者的“家”长什么样?29:38 洛杉矶流浪者聚集地Skid Row的历史34:58 敌意建筑与防御性设计44:30 庇护所可以解决流浪问题吗?51:28 疫情期间面临的新挑战58:37 景观设计上的尝试|相关阅读Podcast: Why I am homeless?Youtube Channel: Invisible PeopleAIA Architect: Can Design Help Solve LA’s Homeless Crisis?

72 - Halloween Safety and raising awareness for autism with blue Halloween buckets
Keeping a child safe is always a parent’s top priority. And on Halloween night basic activities like trick-or-treating could be hard. It was a mother in Hawaii whose Facebook post went viral when she came up with the idea of using blue buckets for kids with autism or who are nonverbal, like her 3-year-old son. A blue bucket is to help those giving out candy know that a child may be autistic, so they may not say the traditional 'trick-or-treat' when you open the door.
