We also talk through what is expected of children when they first start school, with great tips from teachers and parents as to what you can do at home to aid your child’s learning.

Little Big Moments Podcast: Starting School - Episode 3

Gracias a los tres mil pesos moneda nacional que le otorga el segundo Premio Municipal de Literatura, Borges dedica el año 1929 a una investigación sobre el poeta Evaristo Carriego que se transforma en un profundo y revelador estudio sobre el mundo del tango. Más de treinta años después r
evive ese mundo, que lo había adentrado en los bajos fondos de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, en cuatro conferencias que dicta los lunes de octubre de 1965 a las siete de la tarde en un departamento del barrio porteño de Constitución. Lúcido y ocurrente, Borges exhuma el Palermo y el Sur de antaño, poblados de compadritos, guapos, niños bien patoteros, "casas malas" y milongas, para interpelar el origen, los símbolos, los mitos y la lírica de la música emblemática del Río de la Plata. Transcriptas por primera vez en este libro, estas conferencias ofrecen un encuentro prodigioso: el de Borges y el tango, para él "un símbolo de felicidad".
Escuchá la tercera conferencia.

Narrar por Alejandro Vargas-Lugo.

Si tomaste la decisión de alcanzar el éxito de una vez por todas, este libro es para ti. Tu Momento Es Ahora. Punto.

El éxito es una ciencia y un arte a la vez. Por un lado, son principios que invariablemente te llevarán a acercarte a tus sueños. Por otro, es un arte, un proceso de descubrirte a ti mismo, y encontrar plenitud y significado para tu vida. Necesitas aprender ambos: el arte y la ciencia del éxito. Este libro te llevará por un proceso de tres pasos:

Conquistando lo interno: Para tener éxito y lograr tus sueños (conquistar lo externo), primero necesitas conquistar lo interno. Debes aprender a reprogramar tu mente, conectar con tu espíritu y desarrollar tu cuerpo, y así estar listo para la gran aventura de tu vida.El epicentro de la plenitud, el significado y la felicidad se encuentran en este primer paso. Si no conquistas lo interno, nunca te sentirás pleno, sin importar el nivel de éxito que hayas alcanzado. Todo esto es el arte del éxito.

Conectando lo interno con lo externo: Este segundo paso tiene que ver con la definición de la visión para tu vida, tus metas, los hábitos que necesitas desarrollar para transitar el camino correcto. En este segundo paso defines el mapa que precisas para lanzarte a la aventura por tus sueños.

Conquistando lo externo: En este tercer y último paso te entrego las herramientas y las habilidades básicas que necesitas para alcanzar el éxito tal y como lo tienes definido. Aquí descubrirás la ciencia del éxito: establecer una estructura integral que puedes seguir para lograr tus metas de manera tangible.

Este es el momento que has estado esperando. Tu momento es ahora.

Goddess Meditations

This month, we're going behind closed doors with Carmen Maria Machado, who dialled in from the States to talk to us. Her innovative memoir, In The Dream House, is about her experience of domestic abuse, something that is so often hidden from view, and even more so when it happens in a queer relationship. What does it mean to write into archival silence? How do we tell the most difficult stories? As usual, our theme is inspired by our guest, so join us as we talk about literature that looks at what happens behind closed doors, both in the literal sense - domestic spaces that are not what they seem, or hold secrets - but also those books that show us narratives that are usually left out of literature and culture. Plus, of course, our usual book recommendations - so sit back, and let us open YOUR door on Literary Friction.

Literary Friction - Behind Closed Doors With Carmen Maria Machado

Former&#160;congressman and prosecutor Trey Gowdy teaches you how to effectively communicate and persuade on the issues that matter most to you,&#160;drawing on his experience in the courtroom and the halls of Congress. &ldquo;A must-read for people who want&#160;to&#160;learn how best&#160;to succeed.&rdquo;&mdash;Dana Perino, Fox News host and bestselling author of&#160;And the Good News Is . . . You do not need to be in a courtroom to advocate for others. You do not need to be in Congress to champion a cause. From the boardroom to the kitchen table, opportunities to make your case abound, and Doesn&rsquo;t Hurt to Ask shows you how to seize them. By blending gripping case studies from nearly two decades in a courtroom and four terms in national politics with personal stories and practical advice, Trey Gowdy walks you through the tools and the mindset needed to effectively communicate your message. Along the way, Gowdy reflects on the moments in his life when he learned the most about how to argue and convince. He recounts his missteps during his first murder trial, the conversation that changed his view on criminal justice reform, and what he learned while questioning James Comey and Secretary Hillary Clinton. Sharing the techniques he perfected advocating in law and politics, Gowdy helps you identify your objective, understand your personal jury, and engage in the art of questioning so you can be heard, be understood, and, ultimately, move others. Whether it&rsquo;s getting a boss to take a chance on your idea, convincing someone to support your cause, or urging a child to invest more effort in an important task, movement requires persuasion. Doesn&rsquo;t Hurt to Ask shows you how to persuade, no matter the jury and no matter the cause.

The Penguin Podcast: Jackie Morris with Nihal Arthanayake

At sixty-four, Jenni Murray's weight had become a disability. She avoided the scales, she wore a uniform of baggy black clothes, refused to make connections between her weight and health issues and told herself that she was fat and happy. She was certainly fat. But the happy part was an Oscar-winning performance. In private she lived with a growing sense of fear and misery that it would probably kill her before she made it to seventy.

Interwoven with the science, social history and psychology of weight management Fat Cow, Fat Chance is a refreshingly honest account of what it’s like to be fat when society dictates that skinny is the norm. It asks why we overeat and why, when the weight is finally lost through dieting, do we simply pile the pounds back on again? How do we help young people become comfortable with the way they look? What are the consequences of the obesity epidemic for an already overstretched NHS? And, whilst fat shaming is so often called out, why is it that shouting ‘fat cow’ at a woman in the street hasn’t been included in the list of hate crimes?

Fusing politics, science and personal pain, this is a powerful exploration of our battle with obesity.
