Thanks so much to @samdingman @AyanaTWriter for having me on @kjzzphoenix to talk about the growing movement of doctors pushing hospitals to end automatic drug testing and reporting of pregnant patients and newborns. Please listen and share: kjzz.org/the-show/2025-04-22…

Why some doctors are pushing to end automatic drug testing for pregnant patients, newborns

For many years, hospitals have proactively tested expectant mothers for drugs. But a growing movement of doctors are advocating for moving away from those policies.

I remember listening to an Orioles game on the radio before dinner in 1993 - I was about 9 years old… I heard Fred Manfra say in his baritone voice “the Orioles have been mathematically eliminated.” Embarrassingly I started crying at the dinner table. 30+ years later the perspective is entirely different. But the ending hurts. It always hurts. It’s supposed to hurt. That’s what fandom is… that’s the beauty of it. I think of the other great line in “A League of their Own” “It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great.”

Last month, @samdingman interviewed me for @kjzzphoenix about my new book, YOU'LL NEVER FIND ME. We had a great talk for nearly an hour, boiled down into eight minutes. LOL. Seriously, it's always interesting to know what others find interesting about my characters and writing process. @htp_books kjzz.org/kjzz-news/2024-07-2…

I had a really great conversation with @samdingman from @kjzzphoenix about nostalgia, 1950s boarding schools, trad wives, MAGA, and for-some-reason Samuel Pepys kjzz.org/2024-07-15/from-50s…

From '50s boarding schools to MAGA, this historian traces why we cling to nostalgia

In 'Nostalgia: A History of a Dangerous Emotion,' Agnes Arnold-Forster, Ph.D., traces the origins of nostalgia back centuries, to a time when doctors considered it a potentially fatal condition.

Delighted that plunking Gunnar Henderson as retaliation for Judge getting hit on what was not a purposed pitch cost the Yankees a game. Judge accuses. Verdugo threatens, Yanks bluster. Gunnar says nothing, jogs to first, steals second, scores. O's win by a run. Class will out.

"I don't believe art should be frozen." —That's @ASU English professor Larissa FastHorse outlining her creative philosophy when adapting "Peter Pan" in a new Broadway version. Listen to her interview @samdingman @kjzzphoenix: ow.ly/V8tK50Sht5h #ASUHumanities

This Indigenous writer's take on 'Peter Pan' is a version that can live in 2024

When Larissa Fasthorse was first approached about writing an adaptation of "Peter Pan," she said no.
