  • What does a City Planner do? with Shari Phippen

    What does a City Planner do? with Shari Phippen
    Aug 19 2025
    In my continuing quest to highlight professions that are overlooked or misunderstood, I'd like to introduce you to Shari Phippen. She has decades of experience as a city planner, which is one of the most important roles in determining where we live, how we live, and what we can do while we live there...but nobody seems to know what they do or how they do it.

    This also serves as the first teaser for my upcoming audiobook, Where Did Everybody Go?, coming out from Simon & Schuster Audio this November.

  • Why do we love superheroes? with Ernie Carothers (BlerdWithoutFear)

    Why do we love superheroes? with Ernie Carothers (BlerdWithoutFear)
    Jul 8 2025
    Superheroes dominate cinema and pop culture, and they have for a while now. Sure, there's been a shift in movie theater attendance post-COVID pandemic, but people still show up for superheroes. I wondered why, so I asked an expert on the subject why he thinks caped crusaders and teams of mutant misfits capture our imagination.

    Find @BlerdWithoutFear over on his YT channel!
