I LOVE this podcast. I'm not a huge podcast listener, I prefer audiobooks.
I've always been interested in art, and took several classes during undergrad. I still kick myself for not going to grad school for art history truthfully.

Dascal is a Curator herself, and didn't always love art. Now, she presents interesting stories about works of art and artists that are appealing, even to the non-art lover. My favorite eps are about Van Gogh, and whether Sickert could possibly be Jack the Ripper.

I purchased her new book yesterday, and I can't wait to start reading.

Fun theme
Do you like Rummy, this is a upgraded twist on it.
Number 5 in the series... It's classic rummy with a twist; players playing melds and layoffs of Evidence cards to score points. Move the car to different locations and try to find the notorious bandits. Simple but with slightly more strategy and therefore more interesting. Can be played with young and old alike. There are more in this series so if you enjoy this you might like the others:

I can honestly say the true crime reader won't be disappointed with this gripping account of the life and times of Dr.Thomas Neill Cream the Lambeth poisoner.The book is well researched and well written and I highly recommend you read it.

Spolier alert

A.J's book proves with little room for doubt that Dr.Thomas Neill Cream was not and could not have been Jack the Ripper. The book is made even more appealing my the way the author has chosen to write the book. She has given the book a unique perceptive by allowing Dr Cream to tell the reader his story from his point of view you. So if you haven't already, read the book and allow Dr Cream to take you on journey through his life that ultimately ends on the steps of the gallows.
