  When local drunkard Christopher Sly walks into a tavern, the last thing he expects is a complex trick where, to the amusement of many others, he is tricked into believing that he's a nobleman! And so begins the Taming of the Shrew, one of Shakespeare's earlier comedies. For the enjoyment of this "lord", a group of players perform a tale of love and devotion, where the beautiful Bianca is pursued by many suitors. But there's a catch. Before her father will allow Bianca to marry, he must find a suitable match for his older daughter, the fiery "shrew" of the title, Katherina. Enter Petruccio, who has "come to wive it wealthily in Padua" and will stop at nothing to tame this shrew!  This play was recorded in two weeks as part of Librivox's celebration of the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death Cast ListNarrator, Philip: RachelChristopher Sly: LindaBHostess, Bianca, Peter: Esther ben SimonidesLord, Grumio: Phil SchempfFirst Huntsman, Messenger, Biondello, Joseph: SoniaSecond Huntsman, Katharina, Fourth Servant, Nicholas: Adele de PignerollesPlayer, Lucentio, Nathaniel: Charlotte DuckettFirst Servant, Pedant, Tailor: Maria KasperSecond Servant: Elijah FisherThird Servant, Vincentio: Ray KasperPage, Petruchio: Tony AddisonTranio: RoohiBaptista: TriciaGGremio: Delmar H DolbierHortensio, Curtis: HamletHaberdasher: Kathrine EnganWidow: Jennifer FournierAudio edited by: Esther ben Simonides, Adele de Pignerolles, Maria Kasper, Rachel, & Kim

  Wellmania - Extreme...

  Bridget Jones meets AJ Jacobs in Wellmania, an in-depth, laugh-out-loud exploration of the best and worst of the wellness industry. 
   
   
   
  Cold-pressed juices, "clean" eating, colonic vacations, mindfulness apps, and Paleo: health-care trends and miracle diets seem to be more plentiful each year. But do any of these tactics actually work? What does "wellness" even mean? 
   
   
   
  In Wellmania, longtime journalist Brigid Delaney tackles the good, the bad, and the just-a-little-ridiculous of the wellness industry, using herself as the guinea pig. Starting with a brutal 101-day fast, she leaves behind her thirty-something-year-old lifestyle of late-night parties and all-day hangovers to test the things that are supposed to make us healthy and whole: yoga classes, meditation, CBT, Balinese healing, silent retreats, group psychotherapy, and more. Writing with self-deprecating wit and refreshing honesty, she sorts through the fads and expensive hype to find out what actually works, while asking, What does all this say about us? Is total wellness even possible? And why do you start to smell so bad when you haven't eaten in seven days? According to comedian Judith Lucy, the result is "bloody entertaining" and "leaves you wondering whether you want to do yoga or get mindlessly drunk and despair at the state of the world."
