Music continues at a lower volume as April introduces herself and her guest, and then it fades out. 00:00:08 April Wolfe Host Welcome to Switchblade Sisters, where women get together to slice and dice our favorite action and genre films. I’m April Wolfe. Every week, I invite a new female filmmaker on. A writer, director, actor, or producer, and we talk—in depth—about one of their fave genre films. Perhaps one that’s influenced their own work in some small way. Today, you know, you may know that we are social distancing, so remote recording of course. Um, Chicken’s in the other room, so you might not hear her screaming. Um, the wild parrots are out, though. You may hear that flock passing by. Um, so sound is a little bit different in the studio than uh, it usually is. Everything else is pretty much the same, except for today, our guest is different.

  • Award-Wnning Author Ian Thomsen Chronicles the Making of the Hawks in Three-Part Series Exclusive to Hawks.Com
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 5/19/2021 CONTACT: Hawks Communications (404) 878-3800 FROM BUILDING TO BELIEVING: AWARD-WNNING AUTHOR IAN THOMSEN CHRONICLES THE MAKING OF THE HAWKS IN THREE-PART SERIES EXCLUSIVE TO HAWKS.COM ATLANTA – Today the Atlanta Hawks announced that Ian Thomsen, one of the NBA’s most respected writers and voices for more than three decades, has penned a three-part feature, detailing the building of the 2020-21 Hawks team, exclusively for Hawks.com. The first piece entitled “The Investment” will be posted on Hawks.com at https://www.nba.com/hawks/news/investment, with the final two chapters available on Thursday and Friday respectively. Thomsen has covered the NBA since the 1980s at The Boston Globe before spending two decades as a senior writer at Sports Illustrated where he wrote profiles of NBA stars at the NBA Draft, the Finals, Olympic Games and other major moments. Widely known for his longform storytelling, his book The Soul of Basketball details the 2010-11 NBA season and its legacy-defining impact on a number of its stars. At 41-31 (.569), the Hawks finished 5th in the Eastern Conference, earning their first trip to the NBA Playoffs since the 2016-17 season. Overcoming an injury-ravaged season where the team finished in the top three in games missed due to injury, the Hawks rebounded from a 14-20 start to finish 27-11 with the Eastern Conference’s top record since March 1. Atlanta enters their playoff matchup against the New York Knicks on a four-game win streak and having won 11 straight at State Farm Arena, the longest active home win streak in the NBA.

  • More Than Two Million American Men and Their
    More than two million American men and their families are currently battling prostate cancer and three million more men will be compelled to join the battle in the coming decade. Our goal is to keep these families together. We are in a race against time. Prostate CancerKeeping Foundation Families | TogetherAnnual Report 2005 Headline to go here every time. More than 3 years ago, the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) was founded with a single mission: to harness resources – both financial and human – to find better treatments and a cure for recurrent prostate cancer, a cancer that was little known at the time. Back then, who knew that prostate cancer would become the most common non-skin cancer in America? Who knew that prostate cancer would strike one in six men? Who knew that a man would be one-third more likely to develop prostate cancer than a woman is to develop breast cancer? Since then, the PCF has raised more than $260 million for prostate cancer research with the help of tens of thousands of generous supporters and corporate partners. We have funded hundreds of researchers in the United States and throughout the world in an effort to keep families together, longer. Despite the great progress, there is still much to do. In 2005, prostate cancer took the lives of more than 30,000 fathers, brothers, uncles and husbands. One of those men was Mickey Tarnopol, a stalwart supporter and a member of our Board of Directors for 0 years. He was a beloved husband, father and grandfather. It is with him in mind, along with the more than two million American men and their families currently battling this disease, that we move aggressively toward fulfilling our mission.
