Canada Reads American StyleInterview - Merilyn Simonds and Walking with Beth: Conversations with My 100-year-old Friend
Tara chats with a special guest, the prolific and award-winning Canadian author Merilyn Simonds regarding her latest book, Walking with Beth: Conversations with My 100-year-old Friend.
https://merilynsimonds.com/
"In the spring of 2021, Merilyn Simonds asked her friend Beth Robinson if she’d like to go for a walk. Simonds had just turned 70, still active, still writing, but entering what struck her as a mysterious, even frightening stage of life. Beth, a smart, vibrant woman who’d held a job until she was 99, lived on her own and was as awake to the world as a pe...

The Um, Sir PodcastUm, Civics: Witch HuntsIn this Um, Civics episode, Emily and Samie take a haunting journey through the history (and modern echoes) of witch hunts, from 1600s Sweden to 1990s Wenatchee, Washington.They unpack Mona Chollet’s “In Defense of Witches”, dive into the Torsåker Witch Trials, and draw uncomfortable parallels between centuries-old misogyny and how society still punishes women for independence, ambition, aging, or simply existing outside the lines.From the absurd torture “logic” of the Malleus Maleficarum to the tragic 1994 Wenatchee “witch hunt,” the hosts connect dots between history, pop culture, and politics, tying it all back to the ong...

MorbidThe Career Girl Murders (Part 2)While the tragic loss of two young lives was particularly shocking, the Career Girl Murders is better remembered as one of the most egregious cases of police coercion and abuse in the state’s history. Eight months after the murder, investigators arrested nineteen-year-old George Whitmore, an intellectually disabled day laborer from whom they elicited a false confession, not only for the murder of Hoffert and Wylie, but also for the murder of a single mother in Brooklyn. Eight more months would pass before the charges against Whitmore were dropped, and several more years before police arrested Wylie and Hoffert’s re...

MorbidThe Career Girl Murders (Part 1)On August 28, 1963, Patricia Tolles returned home from work to find her New York City apartment ransacked, a bloody knife in the bathroom, and her roommates, Emily Hoffert and Janice Wylie, nowhere to be found. Patricia went to the lobby and called Janice’s father, Max Wylie, who came over immediately and searched the apartment, finding the bodies of his daughter and Hoffert in one of the bedrooms. Labeled by the press as the “Career Girl Murders,” the murders of Wylie and Hoffert shook the relatively quiet Upper East Side neighborhood and left many residents—particularly young women—feeling vulnerable and afraid...

SundayJesus Rock; The Morality of Striking; Clemency for PrisonersWhat is the case for offering clemency to people in jail? This week, the Pope called on world leaders to make a gesture of clemency to prisoners in the run up to Christmas. For some, it represents an opportunity for healing for both the perpetrator and the victim, but for others it is a step too far. Why shouldn't prisoners simply serve their full sentence? We discuss the issue with former cabinet minister and ex-prisoner, the Rev Jonathan Aitken and former prison governor Brendan O’Friel. The UK is facing a wave of strikes, including action by "ke...

Reframe Your Life123 | The Age of Creativity with Emily UrquhartAbout the book:
It has long been thought that artistic output declines in old age. When Emily Urquhart and her family celebrated the eightieth birthday of her father, the illustrious painter Tony Urquhart, she found it remarkable that, although his pace had slowed, he was continuing his daily art practice of drawing, painting, and constructing large-scale sculptures, and was even innovating his style. Was he defying the odds, or is it possible that some assumptions about the elderly are flat-out wrong? After all, many well-known visual artists completed their best work in the last decade of their...
