On today's Satellite Sisters podcast, Sheila anticipates Liz's birthday later this week and shares some very vague predictions from online horoscopes. Sheila's birthday comes later in the month but she's a Libra.  Sheila also has some offbeat practices about how to beat the heat.  Think fold-out couch, ceiling fan and Brazilian sarong.  Plus, she's wandering the aisles of Rite-Aid daily now and has spotted some new products worthy of her investigation.  She tries them out on Liz and Monica. It's not in her horoscope, but Monica is fine with the return of the fanny pack as predicted in the New York Times this week.  She believes in hands-free living.  Go for it sister.  Also on today's show,  Liz shares some information about an email she received from Mercy Corps in response to the drowning of 3 year old Aylan Kurdi. Here is the photo essay about about the special items Syrian refugees carried with them created by Mercy Corp workers in refugee camps.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Satellite Sisters, Julie, Liz, Sheila and Lian discuss where heroes come from.  On a story in the New York Times, evolutionary dynamicists (whatever that means) tell us how evolution has favored heroes.  Thank goodness.  Sheila is trying to give up sugar.  She has a list of food she has had to deny herself.  It's not easy.  She also has a few new restaurant names around Pasadena and Altadena that are bugging her.  What do you think? Liz questions a couple of new anti-aging practices: one is this face fitness program in New York and the other is an anti-aging potion she saw advertised that allegedly "battles graying".  Julie has some commentary on two new movies:  She has a cultural issue with No Escape starting Owen Wilson and Lake Bell, and recommends Mistress America starring Greta Gerwig.  Speaking of Greta, we hereby issue an apology to Greta for the misinformation we spread about her midway through the show which we correct by the end.  Oops.  Here's her bio from IMDB. Love ya, Greta! Lian wants to draw our attention to this wedding announcement in the New York Times for one tiny detail: the romantic theatrical gesture of the pearl and the kiss.  She thinks maybe Sheila and Liz could find romantic partners on the stage! It's the final week of our instagram contest #satsisterssummerfun so be sure to follow @satsisters and tag your own fun photos #satsisterssummerfun to be eligible to win our great Sol de Janeiro 2 Step Foot Fetish Care.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Very high marks for Belcampo, including the best Beet Cocktail ever.  Yes, people.  Beets and tequila.  Give it a try.  Called Beets By J.  Hahaha.  You may also be interested in trying the camp the restaurant runs at their ranch in Northern California.  Women's Meat Camp.  Yes, people.

On our continuing series the Satellite Sisters Word Write Festival, author Lian Dolan talks to two forst time mystery writers: Kris Calvin and Anne Flett-Giardano.    Kris Calvin One Murder More A former local elected official, Kris Calvin, author of debut novel One Murder More, knows politics from the inside out. She lives minutes from Sacramento, capital city of California and has been honored by the State Assembly and the California Governor’s office for her leadership in political advocacy on behalf of children.  Educated at Stanford and UC Berkeley in psychology and economics, Kris has been employed as a college-level lecturer in economics and as the CEO of a 5000-member nonprofit association in children's health.  Kris is a single parent of a daughter and two sons who make every day worthwhile, and the guardian (never owner) of  black cat Nigel  and cattle dog Lily, both strays who found their way to Kris and family and never left. You're most likely to run into Kris at regional mystery writers, readers conferences, in the halls of the Capitol of Sacramento or at a sporting venue or sports bar watching her favorite teams: the Golden State Warriors, the San Francisco Giants and the SF Forty Niners.  One Murder More is the first in Kris Calvin's new Maren Kane Mystery series.  Anne Flett-Giordano Marry, Kiss, Kill Anne Flett-Giordano is a five-time Emmy-winning television writer and producer whose credits include Frasier, Hot in Cleveland, Becker, and Desperate Housewives. In addition to the three Best Comedy and two Best Writing in a Comedy Series Emmys, Anne (with her screenwriting partner Chuck Ranberg) has won a Producer’s Guild Award and a Golden Globe and was nominated for the Writer’s Guild Best Writing in a Comedy Series award. Anne divides her time between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, California, where she shares a home with her husband, Arnie, and two book-blocking cats, Raider and Gracie. Marry, Kiss, Kill is her debut novel and the first in a series.
