  • Chekhov's Gun: Nuke it Out

    Chekhov's Gun: Nuke it Out
    2022/04/14

    It’s wrong to make promises you don’t intend to keep, right?

    This tenet of common morality is the basic premise behind “Chekhov’s Gun,” a fundamental concept of storytelling made famous by the prolific Russian playwright, Anton Chekhov.

    But this rule goes way beyond the page and stage – think geopolitics, technological advancements, cowboys, and mutually assured destruction.

    In this episode, Bronwen looks at human psychology (and human folly) to explain why this literary principle is something we ALL need to be taking seriously, as the survival of humanity depends upon it...

  • Capsule Wardrobing: La Vie en Clothes

    Capsule Wardrobing: La Vie en Clothes
    2022/03/22

    In this episode, Bronwen chats with slow-fashion enthusiast Lauren McKinney about  the classic rules of curating a “capsule wardrobe.” They dig into the damaging impact cultural rules of fashion can have on identity formation and mental health and recognize the significant toll rampant consumerism is taking on our wallets and our environment. 

    As Bronwen reconciles with the reality of her closet,  Lauren shares wisdom gleaned from her evolving relationship with sustainability, reflecting on how capsule wardrobing’s underlying framework of “less is more” can be used for the greater good.

  • Do-Not-Resuscitate: A Matter of Life and Breath

    Do-Not-Resuscitate: A Matter of Life and Breath
    2022/03/08

    How much thought have you given to your end-of-life care?

    In this episode, Bronwen investigates the practicalities of the controversial advance directive known as the Do-Not-Resuscitate order.  What does a DNR actually entail? Who makes the final call? What's the likelihood a life-saving method like cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) will actually work?

    To answer these questions (plus many more), Bronwen chats with an emergency medicine physician who deals with DNRs on a regular basis. With two decades of hands-on experience, this practicing ER doc sheds light on the many nuances of end-of-life decision-making, the risks and benefits of resuscitative efforts, and the common misconceptions many of us have about DNRs.   

    A travel through history’s imaginative methods of resuscitation is also provided, adding context to the impressive array of medical technology we have available today.
