My mom introduced be a couple years back to a true crime podcast called “My Favorite Murder”. If you find true crime facscinating, Karen and Georgia respectfully cover cases that have happened. They do intersperse some humor thoughout their podcast, but it is usually their dynamic and, as stated, doesn’t direct it towards the victims, This also…[Read more]

My Library Story This semester I am stepping out of my comfort zone and I am doing an internship with Dr. Chow on Library Advocacy. I am introverted and Continue reading

Hi @catladylilia – I, too, have been feeling very nostalgic and grateful for the library I grew up with in my hometown. I love that you are moving into a more public-facing and engaging space with your advocacy work – you seem very grounded in your purpose from your personal experience. Central Valley communities like Hanford often get left out of statewide conversations about access to services and representation. I love your closer: “Libraries mean hope” – don’t we need all the hope we can get these days?
Beautiful post – thank you for sharing with us all.-
Hi Emily,
Thank you!
Absolutely, we can use all the hope we can get.-Lilia

Hi @catladylilia. I loved this- I was a child who had a special relationship with my libraries, too. And I’m super inspired by you pushing your boundaries to do this internship! I need to do more of this.

Hi Terri,
Thank you for reading and your kind words!-Lilia

Hello @catladylilia ,
It’s so funny because most of us in this field are introverts, yet most of our positions require us to face and interact with the public regularly. But like you, I do it because of how important libraries and librarians have been to me throughout my life. I was actually watching the Matilda movie the other day and I started to literally bawl. I saw how hard her life was at home and how she felt so alone, and when she discovered the magic of the library it completely changed her life and made her feel less alone. That is exactly how I felt when I first discovered the library. Libraries not only give us the chance to succeed academically, but also mentally by helping us escape and feel like a part of something bigger than ourselves.

Hi everyone! I’m currently home with a sleepy newborn and on leave from work, so I’ve had plenty of binging time! I just finished watching all of the Alien movies I had not seen or had not seen in a very long time, in preparation for when I can watch Alien Romulus at home. I also, to keep the sci-fi franchise theme going, binged a few of the…[Read more]

@louis Congratulations on your new baby, that is so awesome! I also just binged the Alien movies and went to see Romulus in theaters – and it was SO GOOD and did not disappoint. Also, that’s so exciting that you just started GoT. GoT is my favorite show and is so epic. I hope you have fun watching it!
-
@Louis Congrats on the new little one! I have been a longtime fan of the Alien franchise although later films were not as finely presented as the first two. I am eager to stream Romulus as well.

Hi all, I purposely avoid listening to new episodes of the podcast “Add to Playlist” so that I can listen to them back-to-back. I don’t watch much TV unless I’m watching it with my kids. My 9-year-old daughter loves sitcoms—we just went through Brooklyn 99 and Young Sheldon together.
Also – does watching the C-SPAN & AP livestreams of the DNC c…[Read more] -

Hi all, the podcast I most look forward to is Add To Playlist from the BBC. I don’t listen to it for weeks at a time, so I can listen to the episodes back to back with headphones while walking in my neighborhood. It’s hosted by musicians (and rotating guests) who build a genre-defying playlist together based on specific elements from subsequent…[Read more]

This sounds great! Added it to my own playlist. :p Thanks, @emtaggart

It worked beautifully! (Everyone, please call me Terri Beth! SJSU thinks my name is just Terri! 😁)

I just downloaded the file and imported it into Feedly, and it worked perfectly! I’ve never used this site, but it seems very useful, so thank you for sharing. Also, the photo on this post is gorgeous!
-
@terribeth @inabookbind Thanks for diving in!
Terri Beth – Apologies about not getting your name into the OPML correctly. I just corrected the OPML.
-
Thanks @michael !!
-
Just imported the OPML into Feedly. It was pretty straightforward with the video and steps given on how to do it. @michael Thanks for the easy to follow instructions, since I’ve never used Feedly before, appreciate it!
-
@claireburke Yay! I have found Feedly (and any feed reader really) to be super useful! Thanks for the comment and for jumping in.

I finally imported the OPML into Feedly today, and I love it so far.

@michael Thank you for sharing! I have created a Feedly account and imported our OPML file. So far, so good!

@msandoval @wendyr24 Yay! I hope it is very helpful for your class workflows.

I used to listen to this podcast religiously, but fell behind during the shutdown (when I wasn’t commuting anymore) and haven’t listened in a few years. But the “murderino” groups on facebook are my favorite, and are almost the only thing I still use facebook for anymore!
One of my classmates completed an information community project on people who digitally help solve crimes. I don’t usually listen to podcasts that often, but that podcast is one I want to re-visit. I believe they are still podcasting. I quickly checked their site and it appears to be current. I know they probably have discussed how they came up…[Read more]
@acorey I was a long time MFM listener. I switched gears to more movie focused podcasts in the last couple of years. My memory is that one of the early listeners who is the Simpsons fan coin the term Murderino after Homer’s neighbor Ned Flanders’ way of speaking.
@michael Neat! The Ned Flanders/Simpson reference makes sense. It actually adds a bit more dark humor to the show
@inabookbind I don’t listen like I used to but in 2017 to 2021 I listened to every episode. You are right…it was like listening to friends. Karen said something I still repeat to myself and share whenever I can: “Anxiety is liar.”
@inabookbind @michael, I too feel like I’m sitting on a couch, chatting with them, and a bowl of popcorn! They definitely have the feel of being a friend. This makes me want to sneak of of their newer podcasts in, between work and school life!
