Cloth of the Nation brings forward powerful stories from veterans navigating life during and after military service. On The Spark, we speak with Dale and Jan Hamby about the inspiration behind the podcast, the voices it aims to amplify, and what they hope listeners will take away from these deeply personal stories of identity, transition, and community.Author Lindsey Smith joins The Spark to discuss her new book Summer Haters Club, the first traditionally published work to explore seasonal affective disorder during the summer months. The conversation dives into how rising global temperatures are making extreme heat more difficult for many—especially those experiencing summertime SAD—and how the book encourages readers to better understand mental health through a climate-awareness lens.
