One day a few years ago, 300 migrants were kidnapped between the remote desert towns of Altar, Mexico, and Sasabe, Arizona. A local priest got 120 released, many with broken ankles and other marks of abuse, but the rest vanished. Óscar Martinez, a young writer from El Salvador, was in Altar soon after the abduction, and his account of the migrant disappearances is only one of the harrowing stories he garnered from two years spent traveling up and down the migrant trail from Central America and across the US border.

To many in the age of Obama, America had succeeded in "going beyond race", putting the divisions of the past behind us. And then 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot by a wannabe cop in Florida; and then 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri; and then Baltimore blew up; and then gunfire shattered a prayer meeting at a church in Charleston, South Carolina. Suddenly the entire country awakened to a stark fact: Young Black men are an endangered species.

Something unimaginable occurred from 1764 to 1767 in the remote highlands of south-central France. For three years, a real-life monster, or monsters, ravaged the region, slaughtering by some accounts more than 100 people, mostly women and children, and inflicting severe injuries upon many others.

There are two supreme predators on the planet with the most complex brains in nature: humans and orcas. In the 20th century alone, one of these animals killed 200 million members of its own species, the other killed none. Jeffrey Masson’s fascinating new book begins here: There is something different about us. In Beasts he demonstrates that the violence we perceive in the "wild" is mostly a matter of projection. We link the basest human behavior to animals, to "beasts" ("he behaved no better than a beast"), and claim the high ground for our species.

In A More Complete Beast, Jack Donovan picks up Friedrich Nietzsche's thoughts on nobility and master morality and uses them to guide men through an "upside-down" modern world, avoid the trap of hateful ressentiment, and overcome adversity through creativity. In Donovan's hands, Nietzsche's words are rasps and chisels to help men refine a strength-based ethos, revealing their highest and noblest selves to become more complete men. And, as Nietzsche reminded us, man is a beast - so to become a more complete man is always to become a more complete beast.

The London Zoo, the worlds oldest scientific zoo, opened its gates in 1828 with the goal of advancing the scientific study of animals. In 1831-32, it welcomed the animals from the Tower of London menagerie into its collection, and by 1847, it became a public attraction. Managed by the Zoological Society of London, founded in 1826, this historic zoo is located at the northern edge of Regents Park. Charles John Cornish, a renowned English naturalist and author, captured the essence of this remarkable institution in his 1895 publication.

Greetings Fellow Folktale, Fairytale and Fable Friends! Welcome to the podcast that checks out whether these ancient tales still have anything even remotely interesting to tell us! Hosted by us, (us being Tantri and Kirsten, the hostesses with the mostesses), we examine topics from Goldilocks to Bluebeard, and fantastical foods to Ugly Stepmothers- and because we can multi-task, we peer into the darkness (for you because we kinda like you) to see if these stories have anything to tell us about these end times we are living in (because seriously, what the hells bells is going on out there?). ...
