Boston Found Meet Boston Founded four centuries ago, Boston has simply never settled.  Conversations here determine the future, so let’s discover what’s next!  Join us as we seek out the real Boston, past and present, through stories and perspectives that capture a city always in motion.   Hosted by Martha Sheridan, CEO of Meet Boston, this is the Boston Found podcast.https://www.meetboston.com/podcast/ Calling All Explorers Jessie Pitsillides Calling All Explorers is a podcast from the Harvard iLabs in Boston, MA. Our hosts are Harvard junior, Jessica Pitsillides, and Harvard Business School alumnus Ronald Terrazas. Along with Dr. Gordon Chiu, they are co-founders of iLab member Phenegra, a for-profit public benefit corporation dedicated to discovery, development, and commercialization of materials that transform humanity’s ideas of sustainability and ecology. Hazard of New Fortunes by William Dean Howells Loyal Books Howell’s novel is set in New York of the late nineteenth century, a city familiar to readers of Edith Wharton and Henry James. Basil March, a businessman from Boston of a literary bent, moves with his family to New York to edit a new journal founded by an acquaintance. Its financial support, however, comes from a Mr. Dryfoos, a Pennsylvania Dutch farmer suddenly become millionaire by the discovery of natural gas on his property, and now living in New York with his family in a style he hopes will befit his new wealth.Is it his new fortune that presents a hazard? Or is it the new wealth of New York City in the Gilded Age? Both March and his literary creator are increasingly aware of some of the social and economic contradictions that beset the city of the time (though some of Howell’s analysis sounds as if it well might fit New York today). Characters such as, among others, Dryfoos’s children, a German socialist immigrant who fought for the Union cause, an impoverished Southern colonel Discover Fresh Perspectives David A series of short conversations, sometimes with myself, usually with others, that provide an opportunity to see every day events through different perspectives.  The intent is to open up new possibilities for personal and organizational growth!
