  North Carolina represents a perfect distillation of the promise and peril of modern American democracy: hyperpartisanship, gerrymandering, dissatisfaction with the two-party system, the urban-rural divide—these issues are all brought into sharp relief in the Tar Heel State. For that reason, North Carolina politics and government are increasingly of interest not just to North Carolina citizens but to journalists, political observers, and people across the country. Political scientist Christopher A. Cooper, to whom the national media go when they need a quote about North Carolina politics, offers a primer made for all people, no matter their political leanings. 
   
   
   
  Listeners will be introduced to everything that has made North Carolina the most purple of purple states—from the state constitution and the influence of think tanks to the growing racial diversity of the state and the limitations on the governor's power. By explaining how we came to be in the political situation we are in, Cooper shows us where we might go next. And, as many have said, "As North Carolina goes, so goes the nation."

  Stoicism - Finding Strength in...

  Stoicism is an ancient Greek philosophy that teaches how to live a good life, one filled with virtue, wisdom, and tranquility. Founded by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BCE, Stoicism is built on the idea that the key to happiness and fulfillment lies not in external circumstances, but in how we choose to respond to them. The philosophy emphasizes the development of self-control, rational thought, and resilience in the face of adversity. While it originated in ancient Greece, Stoicism has influenced many philosophers and continues to resonate with modern thinkers, offering practical tools for navigating life’s challenges. 
  At the core of Stoicism is the belief in distinguishing between what we can control and what we cannot. According to Stoic principles, we cannot control external events, but we can control our responses to them. This idea, known as the Dichotomy of Control, encourages individuals to focus on their actions, thoughts, and emotions rather than worrying about things beyond their influence. This shift in perspective can lead to greater peace of mind and less suffering, as it frees us from the emotional turmoil of trying to change the uncontrollable. 
  Stoicism is often associated with a few key figures, including Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius. Each of these philosophers contributed their own insights into the practice of Stoicism, emphasizing different aspects of the philosophy. Epictetus, for example, taught that true freedom comes from mastering our internal world, while Seneca focused on the importance of reflection and mindfulness in everyday life. Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor, applied Stoic principles to leadership and the challenges of ruling an empire, demonstrating how Stoicism can be practiced by anyone, no matter their role in society.

  The Art of Memoir

  Bestselling author and renowned professor Mary Karr offers a master class in the essential elements of great memoir—delivered with her signature wit, insight, and candor. 
  Credited with sparking the current memoir explosion, Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club spent more than a year at the top of the New York Times list. She followed with two other smash bestsellers: Cherry and Lit, which were critical hits as well. 
  For thirty years Karr has also taught the form, winning teaching prizes at Syracuse.  (The writing program there produced such acclaimed authors as Cheryl Strayed, Keith Gessen, and Koren Zailckas.) In The Art of Memoir, she synthesizes her expertise as professor and therapy patient, writer and spiritual seeker, recovered alcoholic and “black belt sinner,” providing a unique window into the mechanics and art of the form that is as irreverent, insightful, and entertaining as her own work in the genre. 
  Anchored by excerpts from her favorite memoirs and anecdotes from fellow writers’ experience, The Art of Memoir lays bare Karr’s own process. (Plus all those inside stories about how she dealt with family and friends get told— and the dark spaces in her own skull probed in depth.) As she breaks down the key elements of great literary memoir, she breaks open our concepts of memory and identity, and illuminates the cathartic power of reflecting on the past; anybody with an inner life or complicated history, whether writer or reader, will relate. 
  Joining such classics as Stephen King’s On Writing and Anne Lamott’s Bird by Bird, The Art of Memoir is an elegant and accessible exploration of one of today’s most popular literary forms—a tour de force from an accomplished master pulling back the curtain on her craft.
