Becoming The Main Character

How Did I End Up Here?
Mattie Ross finds herself out on the frozen hillsides of Oklahoma. Body aching from being on horseback all day, she just witnessed the gruesome killing of two bandits...
It's enough to make her ask 'what am I doing out here?'
Part 2 of True Grit will lead to what I believe is the very relatable answer to that question.

"I was born game, sis, and I hope to die in that condition."
When the government-appointed lawmen aren't quick to hunt down the murderer of Frank Ross, his teenage daughter, Mattie, takes things into her own hands and hires a one-eyed US Marshall known for his rough treatment of outlaws.
In Charles Portis's classic western novel, we find a beautiful example of how to push through even when everyone is telling you you're not up to the task. So saddle up, we're heading out to find ourselves a desperado.
Part 2 releases next week.

Felonies are down by 99.8%. There hasn't been a murder in 5 years because the police know what will happen before it takes place. There couldn't possibly be any side effects to arresting people who haven't yet committed a crime...right?
This sci-fi classic short story from the 1950's comes to us from the same author who wrote "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" (aka Blade Runner) and is a great dip into the world of "what if?"

"It’s as well that you only killed the old woman. If you’d invented another theory you might perhaps have done something a thousand times more hideous."
Raskolnikov was a young man with a theory. A theory that led to a choice, and now he doesn't know how to deal with the consequences. Who will condemn him first, the police, or his own conscience?
Tune in to see how Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikov's bold and violent story will play out.

"Would not one tiny crime be wiped out by thousands of good deeds?"
The Russians are coming...Fyodor Dostoevsky's unique brand of psychological thriller has reached BTMC, and I was delighted to dive deep into the intellectual madness of the deeply flawed main character, Raskolnikov.

We've never covered a book like this before.

This story was too big for one episode. So, jump in the deep end with part one, and come back soon for part 2.
