Today’s selection comes from our most recent episode of Alabama Aloud, a short story podcast where Don Noble reads the work of Alabama authors. This an excerpt, from Lee Smith’s story “Tongues of Fire” about a bright and impressionable teenage girl during a very stressful time in her childhood.

On TPR Podcast Presents, we bring you the very best from the Troy Public Radio podcast Catalogue.
Today’s selection comes from The Rounds, which is a podcast about nursing education where hosts Kait Nesbitt and Brooke Moseley gather stories from nurses on the front lines of our healthcare system.
But this episode is much bigger than just nursing education. Kait and Brooke are talking to Olivia Thurman, a nurse who previously worked in hematology and oncology, or HEMOC, at Children’s of Alabama.
Olivia’s daughter was born with a rare genetic condition that required a bone marrow transplant and caused her to spend months in the neonatal intensive care unit.
