Podcasts about Acheron

On this episode of Remainders, we watch the 2003 war epic Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. Based on the series of novels, Master and Commander is a chase movie that goes much deeper. Russell Crowe plays Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey, and Paul Bettany plays Dr. Stephen Maturin. The Captain represents leadership and duty, and the Dr. represents academia and revolution. As they chase the elusive French war ship The Acheron, the two men both test and help each other during the Napoleonic Wars. Old-school action filmmaking in a modern war epic – she's in her prime.Other topics include Peter Weir and Australian directors, more Russell Crowe buddy movies and L.A. Confidential, the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Tom Cruise and Mission: Impossible, ai in movies and tv, and fast food we're eating and not eating lately.Song Picks of the WeekMuzzle by The Smashing PumpkinsHawaii by The StrokesRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

In this episode, host Shelby Bundy discusses the five rivers of the Underworld. Where the modern version of "hell" is imagined as fire and brimstone, the ancient Greeks saw an Underworld that was built around flowing rivers, each with a purpose and life. From meeting the ferryman at the Acheron to being faced with our broken oaths at the Styx, this episode considers the ways in which the waters of Hades held and transported the souls of the dead.✨ Courses led by Shelby:Learn Myth, Astrology, Tarot, Shadow Work, and all things magickal at TenthHouseRising.com, a school by Tamed Wild.

Dante approaches the gates of hell! Dcn. Harrison Garlick is joined by Dr. Jennifer Frey, the Dean of the new Honors College at the University of Tulsa, and Dr. Jessica Hooten Wilson, the Fletcher Jones Chair of Great Books at Pepperdine University, to discuss cantos 2-5 of Dante's Inferno.Check out thegreatbookspodcast.com. Check out OUR GUIDE to Dante's Inferno: 80+ Questions and Answers.13. What happens in the Vestibule of Hell (Cantos 2-3)?The narrative of the Dark Woods in Canto 1 is arguably the introduction to the entire Divine Comedy, and as such, Canto 2 serves as the introduction to the first volume or canticle, the Inferno.[1] Note that Dante begins the Canto by invoking the Muses, which was common in the “classic epic tradition.”[2] The Canto explains that the Virgin Mary took pity on Dante, and she told Saint Lucia to help him. St. Lucia then asked Beatrice, a soul in heaven who knows Dante, to help Dante; Beatrice then went into hell and asked Virgil to be Dante's guide.[3] Whereas the three beasts of Canto I represent the threefold structure of hell, the three ladies of Canto 2 represent grace.[4] His heart emboldened, Dante and Virgil enter the “deep and rugged road” and arrive at the gate of hell.[5] The inscription of the gate reads:I AM THE WAY INTO THE DOLEFUL CITY / I AM THE WAY INTO ETERNAL GRIEF, /I AM THE WAY TO A FORSAKEN RACE. JUSTICE IT WAS THAT MOVED MY GREAT CREATOR; / DIVINE OMNIPOTENCE CREATED ME, / AND HIGHEST WISDOM JOINED WITH PRIMAL LOVE. BEFORE ME NOTHING BUT ETERNAL THINGS / WERE MADE, AND I SHALL LAST ETERNALLY. / ABANDON EVERY HOPE, ALL WHO ENTER.[6] Upon passing through the gates, the Pilgrim hears the “sighs and cries and shrieks of lamentations echo[ing] throughout the starless air of Hell.”[7] Virgil and the Pilgrim enter into the Vestibule of Hell, which is populated by souls who lived a lukewarm life with “no blame and no praise,” and by the angels who at Lucifer's great rebellion remained undecided.[8] Here, Dante the Poet introduces the concept of contrapasso, i.e., “the just punishment of sin, effected by a process either resembling or contrasting with the sin itself.”[9] In the Vestibule, the contrapasso for the souls and angels who lived undecided is to eternally march after a banner.[10] Amongst “great a number,” the Pilgrim sees the shade of the “coward who had made the great refusal.”[11] While there are many interpretations, “perhaps it is most likely that this shade is Pontius Pilate, who refused to pass sentence on Christ.”[12] Virgil and the Pilgrim come to the river Acheron where they

The untested crew of the far-flung USS Acheron take stock after their encounter with the Bivarians...---Time and Space by Keys of Moon | https://soundcloud.com/keysofmoonMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons / Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/#StarTrek #StarTrekAdventures #TTRPG

One of the most remarkable literary achievements of the 20th century emerged in 1989 when W.W. Norton published Patrick O'Brian's multi-volume fictional re-creation of British naval life during the Napoleonic Wars. Eventually stretching to twenty books, O'Brian's account of the lives of Captain Jack Aubrey and his great friend, Doctor Stephen Maturin entranced reviewers and millions of readers. A reviewer from the New York Times stated that O'Brian's books are simply "the best historical novels ever written." "Master and Commander" is the first Hollywood movie made from O'Brian's books and what follows is not a review but rather an essay that uses the movie to frame a discussion of leadership. The focus is the character of Jack Aubrey- created by Patrick O'Brian, visualized by director Peter Weir and brought to life by actor Russell Crowe. An examination of Aubrey's behavior, thoughts and values throughout the movie provides a wealth of insight into the concept of leadership. As the movie begins, it is the spring of 1805 and we are aboard HMS Surprise, a small Royal Navy frigate with a crew of 197 souls and an armament of 28 guns. HMS Surprise serves as a tiny but exact mirror of the actual British navy and Jack Aubrey serves as an archetype of a fighting British sea-captain during the Napoleonic wars. As we will see, the movie title of "Master and Commander" is actually an incomplete description of Aubrey's role, which can more accurately be described as "Master, Commander and Leader." Each of these three roles describes a different aspect of Aubrey's performance. Each derives from a unique set of competencies but all three roles strongly complement each other. The fact that Aubrey is successful as master, commander and leader has a decisive effect on the course of events in the movie. HMS Surprise has left England under orders to find the French frigate Acheron and "sink, burn or take her as a prize." The Surprise is off the coast of Brazil and approaching a fogbank that seems to contain something suspicious. When the alarm is raised, we are introduced to Captain Jack Aubrey who peers into the fogbank, sees gunflashes and quickly realizes that the Surprise is about to be mauled by the larger, more heavily gunned enemy ship. Aubrey is energized by the prospect of combat ("straight at 'em, Mr. Mowatt!") but events quickly take a turn for the worse as Surprise's rudder is shot away and the British barely escape into the fog. We learn more of Aubrey in the wake of the Surprise's first disastrous encounter with the French. The ship's officers, somewhat in shock, are discussing the engagement and they observe that Acheron was "more like a ship of the line than a frigate" and "our shots couldn't penetrate." They all assume that the clear superiority of the French ship means the Surprise will have to abandon its mission and return to England. Their misgivings are well-founded. HMS Surprise, with 28 guns, is about as small as a ship can be and still be called a frigate. By way of comparison, the four British frigates that fought at Trafalgar were all armed with at least 36 guns. Jack Aubrey, however, sees the situation from a very different perspective. Positively radiating with decisiveness, he tells his officers that there is not a moment to lose if they are to carry out repairs and catch up with the French. As the ship recovers, we see an absolute beehive of complicated, intense activity; a visual reminder that warships of this period were the largest, most complex and deadliest moving objects in the world. In addition, these ships were a veritable "system of systems" and competent commanders had to know every aspect of their ship. We see Captain Aubrey talking gunnery with the gunner, navigation with the sailing master and ship repairs with the carpenter. Aubrey's obvious competence links to a leadership insight derived from Clausewitz. The Prussian philosopher of war once observed that great leaders need to be decisive but it...

On this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we're diving into the grim and fascinating plane of Acheron, the Iron Plane of unending war and chaos. Join us as we explore the battles that define its existence, the rigid military hierarchies that shape its inhabitants, and the mysterious floating cubes that make up its unique landscape. We'll also delve into the role of deities like the enigmatic Kabal Macab and discuss the bleak nihilism that pervades this war-torn realm. Whether you're building your next D&D campaign or just love delving into the multiverse's mysteries, this episode is packed with lore, insights, and tips to inspire your adventures. Summary In this episode, the hosts embark on an in-depth exploration of Acheron, one of the most enigmatic and war-torn planes in the Dungeons & Dragons universe. Acheron, often referred to as the Iron Plane, is a realm where colossal iron cubes drift endlessly through the void, serving as both battlegrounds and homes for its inhabitants. The discussion delves into the plane's core themes of eternal conflict, its rigid military hierarchy, and the bleak nihilism that pervades its existence. The hosts guide listeners through the plane's unique structure, examining its various layers, including Avalis and Ful'danon, and the peculiar mechanics that govern navigation and survival in this harsh environment. They also shed light on the enigmatic deities of Acheron, such as Kabal Macab, the witch goddess, and explore how divine influence intertwines with the perpetual war of the plane. Listeners will gain insight into the cultural and existential challenges faced by Acheron's inhabitants, from the chaos of the Riggis military machine to the sentient entities that call this plane home. Finally, the hosts consider why adventurers might be drawn to Acheron, whether by fate, duty, or misfortune, offering strategies for survival and roleplaying tips for bringing this grim setting to life in a campaign. This is a must-listen for D&D enthusiasts eager to deepen their understanding of this fascinating and perilous plane of existence.

Paolo Riberi, Giancarlo Genta"I segreti di Alien"Gnosi, orrore cosmico, scienza e IA nella saga degli XenomorfiMimesis Edizioniwww.mimesisedizioni.itNato dalla geniale sceneggiatura di Dan O'Bannon e Ron Shusett e dagli incubi dell'artista svizzero Hans Ruedi Giger, nel 1979 Alien consacrò il talento di un giovanissimo Ridley Scott. Diversi decenni dopo, tra sequel, prequel e crossover, possiamo osservare la nascita e lo sviluppo di una saga variegata e poliedrica, nel corso della quale si sono avvicendati registi di prestigio come James Cameron, David Fincher, Jean-Pierre Jeunet e Fede Álvarez.Ripercorrendo l'intera storia del ciclo di Alien, il volume ne esplora i retroscena, scrutando a ritroso nelle influenze e nelle fonti che hanno dato vita al terrificante e affascinante universo abitato dallo Xenomorfo: dai vangeli gnostici all'orrore cosmico di H.P. Lovecraft, dal femminino sacro ai viaggi interstellari e all'intelligenza artificiale, passando per l'alchimia, le scoperte di Darwin e la terraformazione.Tra religione, storia, politica, scienza e tecnologia, una guida indispensabile per addentrarsi fin negli angoli più remoti della galassia, ma da sfogliare con cautela perché “nello spazio nessuno può sentirti urlare”.Paolo Riberi è laureato in Filologia e letterature dell'antichità e in Economia presso l'Università degli Studi di Torino. Funzionario pubblico, collaboratore giornalistico, studioso di storia antica e letteratura delle origini cristiane, è anche membro della Società Italiana di Storia delle Religioni (SISR). È autore di vari saggi dedicati al mondo dei vangeli apocrifi e alla simbologia nel cinema contemporaneo. Per Mimesis ha pubblicato: Abraxas: la magia del tamburo (con I. Caputo, 2021) e I segreti di Dune (con G. Genta, 2024).Giancarlo Genta è professore emerito di Costruzione di macchine presso il Politecnico di Torino, membro dell'Accademia delle Scienze di Torino e dell'Accademia Internazionale di Astronautica. È autore di numerosi testi di formazione, di articoli e di volumi sull'esplorazione spaziale e il programma Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI). È inoltre autore di sei romanzi di fantascienza tradotti anche in inglese: Le porte dell'inferno (2018), Le rosse cupole di Acheron (2019), La frontiera (2021), Il cacciatore (2012), Oltre la frontiera (2022) e Gli alieni perduti (2022).

Throughout history and all around the world, people have long imagined some form of hell or underworld. It's written about in literature, shows up on the silver screen, and even travel destinations. This episode is about Postcards From Hell, the scary places and spaces made up of awe-inspiring sights in the natural world, from lakes of fiery lava to dark caves and deep pools. Erika Engelhaupt is a science journalist and editor. Her latest work, Nat Geo's Go to Hell" - A Traveler's Guide to Earth's Most Otherworldly Destinations takes readers on a journey to more than 50 mysterious and mythical places. Engelhaupt has a smart and thoughtful approach to all things macabre, as she highlights hellscapes from all over the world. She invites readers to experience the chills and thrills offered by devilish destinations including spots in Turkey, Italy, Israel, and Japan, just to name a few. She explains why the book begins in Greece with the Acheron, or “river of woe.” It sets the overall tone for people searching for doorways or pathways to an underworld of dark and shadowy places. Engelhaupt explains the origin of Halloween to a cave in Ireland. To most, it appears to be a little hole in the ground. However, it is the entrance to a fantastic hidden cavernous world of pitch black. She talks about the “otherworld,” a land filled with supernatural beings. From fire, darkness, to portals to spiritual worlds, Engelhaupt delights readers and listeners alike with tales of hells on Earth. Whether visiting a castle in Czechia, which was built to clog up a hole to hell, or stumbling upon a trapdoor to darkness deep in the heart of Pennsylvania, Engelhaupt teaches us a big life lesson—the scary spots are usually steeped in history, there may be a scientific reason for its fear factor, and there is also a good chance it is filled will beautyThroughout history and all around the world, people have long imagined some form of hell or underworld.

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast,  we delve into the intricacies of one of the most fascinating planes in the D&D cosmology: Mechanus. Known for its absolute order and interlocking gears the size of small countries, Mechanus is a plane like no other. Join us as we explore the various features and inhabitants of this highly structured and symmetrical world. From the bureaucratic Modrons to the optional rules of the Law of Averages and Imposing Order, get ready for a deep dive into the intricacies of Mechanus. So grab your dice and join us as we take a journey into the heart of this incredible plane. Summary In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, We break down the Plane of Mechanus in the D&D cosmology. We describe Mechanus as a plane of absolute order, with interlocking gears the size of small countries. The gears are habitable on both sides and everything is perfectly balanced and symmetrical. Mechanus connects to three other planes: Acheron, Arcadia, and Sigil. We talk about the Modrons, creatures that inhabit Mechanus and are known for their bureaucratic and orderly nature. Two optional rules for Mechanus: the Law of Averages, where creatures always use the average damage result for attacks and spells, and Imposing Order, where visitors must make a Wisdom saving throw at the end of a long rest to avoid changing their alignment to lawful neutral. In this part of the episode, we explore the concept of law in Pathfinder and how it differs from D&D. We also delve into the hierarchy of Modrons, the native inhabitants of Mechanus, and their roles and functions within the plane. We share tidbits about Modrons, such as their limited communication abilities and the constant replacement of Modrons in the hierarchy upon death. We touch on the challenges of finding stat blocks for higher-ranking Modrons. We discuss various aspects of Mechanus, the plane of law and order in the Dungeons & Dragons multiverse. We cover topics such as the Modrons, the ruling hierarchy of Mechanus, the Ruby Rod, the Slodds, the Formians, the Gate Town of Automata, and the Great Modron March. We also mention the Hall of Concordance in Axis. Takeaways Mechanus is a plane of absolute order with interlocking gears the size of small countries The gears are habitable on both sides and everything is perfectly balanced and symmetrical Mechanus connects to three other planes: Acheron, Arcadia, and Sigil Modrons, creatures that inhabit Mechanus, are known for their bureaucratic and orderly nature Two optional rules for Mechanus: Law of Averages and Imposing Order Pathfinder has a plane dedicated to law called Axis, which falls between Mechanus and Sigil. Modrons are the only native inhabitants of Mechanus and exist in an absolute hierarchy based on the number of sides they have. Modrons have limited communication abilities and can only communicate with Modrons one step above or below them in the hierarchy. When a Modron dies, they are immediately replaced in the hierarchy, and Primus creates new Monodrones to maintain a stable number of Modrons in the multiverse. Finding stat blocks for higher-ranking Modrons can be challenging, and previous editions may provide more information. Mechanus is the plane of law and order in the D&D multiverse The Modrons are the ruling hierarchy of Mechanus The Ruby Rod is a powerful artifact that controls the Slodds The Slodds are chaotic creatures that seek to break free from Mechanus The Formians are ant-like creatures that have invaded Mechanus Automata is a Gate Town in Mechanus known for its bureaucratic and orderly nature The Great Modron March is a mysterious event that occurs every 289 years The Hall of Concordance in Axis is a place where contracts are signed and enforced Mechanus is a fascinating and complex plane with many unique features and creatures If you enjoy the show, please rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app. It's a quick, free way to support the podcast, and helps us reach new listeners.

NAVAL WEEK concludes with a highly acclaimed period seafaring adventure which just turned 20!Adapted from a series of beloved historical fiction novels from Patrick O'Brian, this film chronicles the journey of the HMS Surprise, a British seafaring vessel sailing across the Southern Hemisphere and in a continuous cat-and-mouse with the French Navy, this being during the height of the Napoleonic Wars in the 1800's.   This ship and crew are lead by Captain Jack Aubrey played by Russell Crowe and the physician on board (and Aubrey's best friend) is Dr. Stephen Maturin played by Paul Bettany.  We watch them embark on a series of adventures through choppy waters, blistering heat, conflict amongst the crew, and a continuous cat-and-mouse with a more intimidating French vessel known as the Acheron.  Along the way, we get to know Jack, Stephen, and the rest of their spirited crew very well with every aspect of this story and setting being portrayed with an impressive level of historical authenticity thanks to director Peter Weir.  This film received ten Oscar nominations including Best Picture, though it ended up losing most of them to the Lord of the Rings; Return of the King awards juggernaut that same year.  So let's set sail and see if the weather gage....and Surprise....are on our side! ;) Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

YUH 154 is Between The Covers Chapter 4 - Acheron with Admin Thea! Published in 2008, Acheron by Sherilyn York is the 14th, and possibly most popular, entry in the Dark Hunter series. It tells the story of a man reborn as a god, whose life is defined by unspeakable cruelty at the hands of those he should have trusted most. Acheron transports over thousands of years from a terrible life as a sex slave in the lost city of Atlantis to leader of gods on a quest to save humanity. Admin Thea from the Rock and Roll Heaven podcast returns for this signature edition of romantic fantasy and explains why it remains one of her favorite books of all time. #Acheron #sherilynyork  #styx #Appollo #artemis #nickelback #darkhunterseries #badreligion #lovehurts #fantasyfiction  Trigger warning, Acheron is quite ribald, with depictions of sexual encounters and violent imagery.

Summary: Welcome to Spooky Season, friends! Holly and Devin kick their favorite time of year off with a real bang today discussing books with serial killers. One host avoids true crime and scary stories at all costs - the other host has never felt more at home than in October vibes. Both hosts agree that that national obsession with serial killers acts as both an exploration into the muddy waters of human nature and a genuinely helpful protective mechanism for cis and trans women who need to be on their guard. Join us for some lighthearted fun about more than one murder!  Topics Discussed: The Dagger (3:17): Holly discussed All The Sinners Bleed by S.A. Cosby, a detective procedural following Titus Crown, the first Black sheriff of Charon County, as he responds to a call about a shooting at a local school and then must confront a reeling community and the fact that the true threat is still at large - a serial killer hiding in plain sight. Holly's key takeaways were: While sometimes plot is enough, S.A. Cosby's writing is phenomenal in this book, filled with with the kinds of delightful and original turns of phrase common in Southern speaking; he even names the county after the figure who ferries souls across the Rivers Styx and Acheron into the underworld in Greek mythology.  Racism and hatred that exists bubbling under the surface, or on the surface at times, of this town and community. Titus must confront his own role and place in racial dynamics as a Black man but also as a law enforcement officer; he is met with hatred by both Black and white members of the community as he seeks to understand what “right” is.  The cat-and-mouse game between Titus and the serial killer explores how things may not be what they seem - which is also reflected in the religious community. Cosby explores the choices people can make and how bad people can still do good things - they just prefer to do bad things more.  The Heart (20:30): Devin discussed Love in the Time of Serial Killers by Alicia Thompson, a novel following PhD candidate Phoebe Walsh as she spends a summer in Florida cleaning out her childhood home after her estranged father's passing. Things escalate quickly when she becomes convinced that the next door neighbor, Sam Dennings, is a serial killer. Devin's key takeaways were: Thompson highlights the very real (but slightly exaggerated) feelings across many cis and trans women of fearing cis men, especially men they don't know or trust, and how knowing everything about Ted Bundy is actually a mechanism by which they protect themselves from very real danger.  At twelve, Phoebe's parents divorced and she and her brother Connor (he was five at the time) essentially picked sides and were subsequently raised by different parents; in returning to Florida, Phoebe must confront her past, her trauma, and her defense mechanisms that keep her from vulnerability that might unlock the door to real romantic love.  This novel explores confirmation bias and what assumptions can do to our sense of selves and our relationships. Phoebe makes a lot of assumptions about Sam, who he is and what he cares about, and Thompson shows the reader the importance of uncovering truth.  Hot On the Shelf (40:10): Devin: On Beauty by Zadie Smith Holly: Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer What's Making Our Hearts Race (44:46): Devin: What We Do in the Shadows Season 5 on Hulu Holly: Big Fish   Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com   If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.
