Here comes the bride... and there goes the audience. Alexis Hejna from Honeysuckle Rose Creations, Kat Scott, and Robert Winfree take a look at a modern-day adaptation of 'Bride of Frankenstein', mixed with a dash of 'Bonnie & Clyde', a dollop of 'Metropolis', and a heaping handful of sheer boredom (plus a look at the 2026 Oscars and our team's predictions). Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

OREGON DIVORCEE AGNES Anne “Annie” LeRoi arrived in Phoenix in the first few months of 1931 with her best friend and roommate, schoolteacher Hedvig “Sammy” Samuelson. They were climate refugees: Sammy had tuberculosis, and at the time the only cure for “consumption” was a dry climate and rest. Back then, many patients with TB waited until they were so far gone that the climate couldn't save them; essentially, they moved to Arizona to die. Sammy wasn't one of them; her case was mild. But, although she didn't know it, she, too, was moving to Arizona to die. She had less than nine months to live. So did Annie. Neither one of them would die of tuberculosis, though.

In this episode of Rock, Paper, Swords!, Justin Hill and Matthew Harffy talk with historical novelist Carolyn O'Brien about protest, power, and forgotten voices in British history.From the Peterloo Massacre to the rise of fascism in 1930s Britain, Carolyn explores how radical politics, women's lives, and working-class resistance shape her fiction. We discuss writing politically engaged historical novels, the responsibilities of historical storytellers, and why history's margins often hold its most urgent truths.

The legacy of this internationally renowned ensemble, innovators of the "jubilee" singing style which influenced the national sound of quartets in the black community before World War II. The most popular of the Jubilee quartets, the Golden Gate Quartet started singing as the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet in the mid-'30s when they were students at Booker T. Washington High School in Norfolk, VA. The membership included Willie Johnson (baritone and narrator), Henry Owens (first tenor) William Langford (second tenor), and Orlandus Wilson (bass). Their harmonies became very sophisticated, laced with a heavy dose of jazz and a Mills Brothers influence right down to their vocal imitation of instruments. In fact, next to the Mills Brothers, they were probably the best at the "sounding like instruments" technique. They built their reputation through performing on local radio shows and in churches. In 1937 the Gates signed to Victor's Bluebird affiliate and applied their unique jazz-swing sound to gospel titles like "Go Where I Send Thee," "The Preacher and the Bear," and "When the Saints Go Marchin' In." On Aug. 4, 1937, they recorded an amazing 14 songs in two hours at the Charlotte Hotel in North Carolina. They performed in the same year on NBC Radio's "Magic Key Hour." In June 1940, they recorded several sides with the legendary folk singer Leadbelly, released in 1941 on Bluebird's parent label, Victor. By now they had dropped the Jubilee portion of their name, presenting themselves strictly as the Golden Gate Quartet. Though their recorded repertoire from 1937 to 1940 includes mostly gospel and Jubilee songs, they did record two pop-jazz 78s: "Stormy Weather" and "My Prayer." One of the highlights of this period was a performance for President Franklin Roosevelt's inauguration, which led to a number of appearances at the White House at the request of Eleanor Roosevelt. In 1941 they moved to Columbia's Okeh affiliate, and their entire recorded output during the war years was on that label. The most successful of these records was a version of "Comin' in on a Wing and a Prayer" in 1943. Their biggest record success came in 1947 with the song "Shadrack," and in 1948 the group appeared in the RKO musical "A Song Is Born," starring Benny Goodman, Danny Kaye, and Louis Armstrong. In 1959 the Golden Gate Quartet moved to Paris and landed a two-year deal to perform at the Casino de Paris. While based in Europe, they recorded for EMI-UK, Pathe Marconi in France, and EMI-Germany, creating more than 50 LPs. Over the years the group amassed a travelogue of 76 countries performed in. One of the truly great vocal groups, the Gates were cited as an inspiration to many rhythm and blues groups of the era.   00:00 PAR Intro  00:18 NPR Wade In The Water Ep. 10: The Legacy Of The Golden Gate Quartet  58:43 JGH Commentary 01:04:14 PAR Outro    #fba #freedmen #negro #blackamericanheritage #virginia #florida #npr #spiritualjubilee #negrospiritual #worldwar2 #blackamericanfreedmen #rap #1930s #thegoldengatequartet #blackhistory

Leila Philip shares the story of Dorothy Richards, who established "Beaver Sprite" in the 1930s as the country's first beaver sanctuary, eventually living with over a dozen beavers inside her home. Anecdotes illustrate the animals' engineering instincts, such as a beaver moving a plumber's chair to maintain the most efficient path for its construction work.

Let talk about it

Trump, Steven Miller, and other top administration officials are claiming that they are “running Venezuela,” taking over the country and its vast oil reserves. That's not true, the Venezuelan government remains intact, but they are imposing a full naval blockade on the country in an effort to completely shut down Venezuela's economy. The Trump admin also intends to conquer Greenland by one means or another, and are declaring ownership of the Western Hemisphere. Is the Trump administration's open rejection of international laws – which were designed to prevent another World War – just rhetoric? Or does it represent a larger shift in U.S. and thus global politics?

PREVIEW — Svetlana Lokhova — Soviet Espionage in the US: The Role of Ray Bennett. Lokhova discusses the extensive Soviet espionage network established by Stalin in the 1930s to systematically steal American intellectual property, particularly aeronautics and aviation secrets.

But what happens when those warnings go unheeded? When survivors begin to see the same horrors they faced be inflicted onto others decades later?In this conversation, Mehdi sits down with Stephen Kapos – an 88-year-old British-Hungarian Holocaust survivor, who was forced to go into hiding at the age of seven, was separated from his mother and father, lost 15 members of his family to the Nazi concentration camps, and witnessed the total destruction of cities during the war. Today, Kapos has become one of the most vocal pro-Palestinian voices among Jewish Holocaust survivors.“What I saw then was a by-product of two armies fighting, and what I see in Gaza is deliberate destruction. It's even worse,” Kapos says, comparing the scenes of rubble and dead bodies in 1944 and now. He also reflects on his trip to Israel in the 1960s and what he was shocked to find even back then.Mehdi also asks Kapos about those who have cited similarities between Donald Trump's fascistic leadership in the US and Nazi Germany in the 1920s and 30s. Kapos says it's “absolutely” a fair comparison.Watch the full interview where the two discuss Kapos' experience as a Jewish, pro-Palestine activist, his rejection of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition of antisemitism, and why he will continue to fight for the children of Gaza.Free subscribers can watch a 3-minute preview of the conversation.

Send us a textIn this vein-popping episode of Entertain This!, we sink our teeth into Ryan Coogler's Sinners—the vampire flick that's equal parts Get Out social satire and From Dusk Till Dawn bar brawl, set against a sultry 1930s Mississippi Delta backdrop. Michael B. Jordan doubles down as twin brothers fleeing Chicago's underworld, only to unearth a nest of bloodsuckers who make eternal life look like a bad sharecropper deal. Hailee Steinfeld croons the blues while dodging daylight, and the whole affair pulses with Coogler's signature style. It presents the eternal question—would you trade your soul for immortality if it came with a side of chitlins?We dissect the film's knockout set pieces (that shotgun-wielding sunrise showdown? Chef's kiss), debate whether vampires are the ultimate metaphor for generational trauma or just excuses for killer costumes. Spoiler alert: necks get nicked, laughs get drawn, and we leave no plot hole unprodded. Tune in if you're ready to laugh 'til you bleed—because in the world of Sinners, we give you all you need  Stream now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you dodge garlic breath.#SinnersMovie #VampireVibes #EntertainThisPodcastThe Gaming BlenderWe mash genres.

On 9 October 1934, terrorists murdered King Alexander I of Yugoslavia in a Marseille street. The Croatian ultranationalist Ustashe was behind the attack. The Ustashe hoped that the king's death would cause the collapse of Yugoslavia and the liberation of the Croat people. Murder in Marseille: Right-Wing Terrorism in 1930s Europe (Manchester UP, 2025) examines the circumstances, processes, and trajectories that shaped the Ustashe terrorists and their attack in Marseille. It brings questions about contemporary terrorism to bear on a historical attack: what prompts people to join terrorist organisations? How are these people ‘radicalised' to commit violence? What roles do women play in terrorism? Murder in Marseille bridges the scholarly gap between historical and contemporary terrorism, paying attention to, and often guided by, current concerns, ideas, theories, and notions about terrorist violence.

Fish Fries, political BBQs, family reunions — during the 1930s writers were paid by the government to chronicle local food, eating customs and recipes across the United States. America Eats, a WPA project, sent writers like Nelson Algren, Zora Neale Hurston, Eudora Welty, and Stetson Kennedy out to document America's relationship with food during the Great Depression.When we were searching for Hidden Kitchens and stories about how people come together through food we opened up a phone line on NPR and asked the nation for their ideas. Mark Kurlansky, author of Choice Cuts: Food Writing from Around the World and Throughout History told us about America Eats, a federal Works Progress Administration (WPA) program in the 1930s that sent writers throughout the country to document foodways.Each region had its own America Eats team. Their writings, photographs and even some scripts for a proposed weekly radio program are tucked away in collections around the country — at the New York Municipal Archive, the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the University of Iowa Library, and the State Library and Archives of Florida, as well as at the Library of Congress.Producer Jamie York and The Kitchen Sisters follow the story to the Library of Congress and beyond.Produced by Jamie York and The Kitchen Sisters.

REFRESHER COURSE ON WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN THE 1930S IN THE LAND OF BACH AND MOZART:   4/8: Takeover: Hitler's Final Rise to Power Hardcover – Deckle Edge, by  Timothy W. Ryback  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Takeover-Hitlers-Final-Rise-Power/dp/0593537424 From the internationally acclaimed author of Hitler's Private Library, a dramatic recounting of the six critical months before Adolf Hitler seized power, when the Nazi leader teetered between triumph and ruin In the summer of 1932, the Weimar Republic was on the verge of collapse. One in three Germans was unemployed. Violence was rampant. Hitler's National Socialists surged at the polls. Paul von Hindenburg, an aging war hero and avowed monarchist, was a reluctant president bound by oath to uphold the constitution. The November elections offered Hitler the prospect of a Reichstag majority and the path to political power. But instead, the Nazis lost two million votes. As membership hemorrhaged and financial backers withdrew, the Nazi Party threatened to fracture. Hitler talked of suicide. The New York Times declared he was finished.
