Join us as we discuss Vaxis | Act II: A Window Of The Waking Mind!

“You have been weighed. You have been measured. And you have been found wanting.” Join Ian & Liam for our 331st episode as we joust for glory, dance to Queen in medieval Europe, and revisit Brian Helgeland's wildly anachronistic crowd-pleaser A Knight's Tale (2001). Megs isn't with us this week — she's apparently been appointed to the royal court after successfully inventing modern fashion 600 years early. Kev? Last seen trying to enter a jousting tournament under a fake noble title before being immediately exposed by Paul Bettany. This week we discuss: Heath Ledger's breakout leading-man performance — charming, earnest, rebellious. Was this the moment Hollywood realised he could do absolutely anything? The film's glorious tonal chaos — medieval sports movie, romantic comedy, rock concert, underdog drama. Why does this bizarre cocktail somehow work? Paul Bettany's Chaucer — flamboyant, scene-stealing, and possibly the film's secret MVP. Liam breaks down the film's anachronisms — Queen, Bowie, Nike-energy editing. Does the film transcend historical accuracy through sheer confidence? Ian explores the underdog narrative — class, identity, and whether William's rise actually challenges the social order or merely slips inside it. The romance between William and Jocelyn — genuine chemistry or the weakest part of the film? The sports-movie structure — training montages, rivalries, and comeback arcs dressed in chainmail. The “show vs tell” balance — does the film earn its emotional moments through character work, or simply overwhelm you with charisma and music? Rufus Sewell's Count Adhemar — classic villainy, simmering resentment, and one of the great sneering performances of the era. What's with the romantic plot's detour in Act II - where did that come from? The ending — triumphant, ridiculous, emotionally earned… or all three simultaneously? And finally, whether A Knight's Tale is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the most aggressively lovable films of the 2000s.

A Forest Of Whispering Speakers - The BookTwo writers. Ten years of trust. One Tragically Hip catalogue. Episode two is the story of how the book got written without flattening the band.Episode SummaryA Forest Of Whispering Speakers is the oral history of the Theatre Aquarius world premiere of It's a Good Life If You Don't Weaken, the new musical built on the music of The Tragically Hip. Act II: The Book is the writers' room episode — how an exile's journey gets shaped into a story, and how Hip songs become the emotional grammar of that story without ever turning it into a band biography or a jukebox musical.Host jD sits down with co-writers Ahmed Moneka and Jesse LaVercombe, with producer Michael Rubinoff and Tragically Hip manager Jake Gold stepping in to frame the bigger picture. The episode opens at a campfire in Prince Edward County in 2015, traces the ten-year partnership that built King Gilgamesh and the Man of the Wild at Soulpepper, and lands on the two different doors each writer walked through to find The Hip — one across a bridge in Bobcaygeon, the other watching Gord say goodbye from south of the border.Inside the episode: the load-bearing wall of a decade-long friendship, the yin-yang of Ahmed's exile and Jesse's grief, a Thornton Wilder quote about platitudes, and a working theory that 700 people in a theatre cannot lie to you at once.Guest InfoAhmed Moneka (Toronto, via Baghdad) — Co-writer of It's a Good Life If You Don't Weaken.

In this College Deep Dive, Kim Shively, Associate Professor of Performing Arts at Elon University chats with MTCA Director Charlie Murphy about: 

"Because you're mine, I walk the line." Welcome back to My Seminary Life Presents: Fish FryDays the Musical. Today, we move into Act II with a look at what is considered to be the greatest country song of all time, "I Walk the Line" by Johnny Cash. This is a love song that acknowledges faithfulness and self-denial, two key aspects of a Lenten fast. However, as we see in Cash's iconic song and from Scripture, the motivation to be faithful and to deny oneself does not come from inner strength, but from a greater experience that moves one to fiathfulness.

Tonight's Dark Devotion is drawn from Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare — the song “Come Away, Come Away, Death,” sung by Feste in Act II, Scene IV.Though Twelfth Night is often remembered as a comedy, this moment pauses the play's brightness and allows grief to speak plainly. Love imagines its own burial. Devotion asks to be laid quietly in the dark, unmarked and unremembered.This is a soft-spoken, live-ish reading offered as part of our 28 Nights of Dark Devotion — a series exploring love, longing, sacrifice, and return in their quieter, shadowed forms.

Act II of ‘the Exodus’ (parsha ‘Beshalach,” Exodus/Shemot 13:17 through chapter 17) begins immediately after the last of the plagues, when Pharoah has let the people go; actually – kicked them out, “shalach”, or expelled, is how the Hebrew puts it. And it certainly is the beginning of a whole new phase in the saga. But that central theme of how we are all to know that “ki ani YHVH” – or “I AM Yahuah” – not only continues, but is demonstrated: Graphically, undeniably, and miraculously. As the Erev Shabbat reading outlines: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/SSM-1-30-26-Beshalach-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 In the Sabbath Day midrash, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship observes that there are several specific places — and ALL of them PRIOR to the giving of the “Ten Commandments” at Mt. Sinai — where YHVH gives not only a “statute and an ordinance,” but detailed “instruction” (aka ‘torah’). Which is a problem for the “Whore Church” claim that it is only the ‘Ten Commandments’ that still matter — all those others were just for a limited time, or for ‘the jews’, or for any number of constructed excuses for not recognizing what He means when He said that He did not come to change so much as the tiniest bit of His Instruction, any of it, so long as heaven and earth still exist. If we claim to “love Him,” it matters. Beshalach: “And ALL of this is Before Sinai” https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/WT-CooH-1-31-26-Beshalach-ALL-Before-Sinai-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

Ad Astra Travelers, and welcome to Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week, our hosts are returning to Nod-Krai to discuss the battle with Rerir. Join our hosts as we cover Acts III and IV of the Nod-Krai Archon Quest. Our hosts start with a quick recap of where we left off with Act II, the new integrated character story quests and if Rerir was truly a good guy before his abyssal corruption. Afterwards, we'll walk through Acts III and IV to discuss the dynamics among the Harbingers, our introduction and thoughts on Master Varka, and the apparent power of Pyro. Feens will gush about Albedo, Tif will judge his chair making abilities and Bee will question the misogynistic conversations had between Flins and Varka. Of course, we'll discuss Nefer's memory diving abilities, Varka being left in charge of Hiisi Island, and how sucky Khaenri'ah was.

Directed by Jon M. Chu (Crazy Rich Asians, In the Heights), this chapter adapts Act II of the stage musical, carrying the story beyond spectacle into consequence, legacy, and the cost of choosing who you become in the land of Oz. Picking up after the fallout of Part One, the film follows Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo – Harriet, The Color Purple) as she fully embraces her identity as the Wicked Witch, fighting against a system that has turned her into a symbol of fear. Across the divide is Glinda (Ariana Grande – Don't Look Up, Victorious), now the public face of goodness, forced to reconcile privilege, power, and the painful distance growing between her and her former best friend. Their fractured bond forms the emotional core of the film, culminating in moments that redefine friendship, sacrifice, and how history chooses its heroes and villains. The supporting cast deepens Oz's moral complexity, with Jonathan Bailey (Bridgerton, Fellow Travelers) as Fiyero, torn between duty, love, and rebellion; Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) as the manipulative Madame Morrible; and Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic Park, Thor: Ragnarok) as The Wizard, whose charm masks devastating political cruelty. Returning roles include Ethan Slater (SpongeBob SquarePants on Broadway) as Boq and Marissa Bode as Nessarose, whose storyline becomes one of the film's darkest and most consequential threads.

Send us a text!An episode in three acts: Act I - where did I go?Act II - what's going on with the CultCast?Act III - what's the future for CultCast?

It's the episode you've been waiting for! The Legendary Ladies finally get a chance to sit down and talk about Wicked: For Good. Amy, Kat, and Morgan (who were simply agog and obsessed with Wicked Part I) have plenty to discuss, including the most important point - did Part II hold up? The hosts chat about whether or not the general public vs. theater fans could approach the movie differently, as an "Act II" rather than simply another movie. They also talk about the lack of a "viral" factor - how come, a month after Part I, the Loathing choreography was still making the rounds around the internet, but 3 weeks after Part II, the world seems to all but moved on from Wicked. Finally, the hosts give their honest opinions about the film, the performances, and the phenomenon in general.

Rowe Price, where he led the New Horizons Fund and turned it into one of the best-performing small-cap growth portfolios in the country. In 2019, he left to start Durable. His philosophy is grounded in a simple belief that great investing is about understanding people and change. Henry has spent his career studying the rare 1% of companies that drive nearly all long-term returns . Durable's edge comes from being able to tell the difference between a company that is failing and one that is transforming. Henry often talks about “Act II” teams – founders who take the lessons from their first company and apply them to a new frontier. Durable itself is his Act II. In our latest Colossus profile, Managing Editor Dom Cooke traces Henry's story and specifically how he became one of the most influential investors of the 21st century, having learned from founders like Jeff Bezos and John Malone in the early part of his career. I always hear the same thing from founders who've met Henry: “he understood my business faster than anyone”. The thing that sticks with me from our conversation and Dom's profile is just how much he loves investing.

Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo take center stage in Wicked: For Good, the highly anticipated finale to the blockbuster musical saga. On this episode of The Moviegoers Society, Sean Tajipour, the Mayor of Nerdtropolis, and Drew Munhausen dive into Jon M. Chu's bold return to Oz — exploring how dazzling performances collide with a chaotic second act that still struggles to shake the musical's long-standing flaws.They break down the film's biggest strengths, from the emotional punch of “For Good” and “No Good Deed” to Jonathan Bailey's standout turn as Fiyero, while also digging into the messy pacing, rushed story threads, and expanded world-building that make Act II such a challenge to adapt for the screen. Sean and Drew also discuss the film's approach to Dorothy, the visual design of Oz, and whether this finale ultimately sticks the landing for fans of the original musical.

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” – Romeo and Juliet, Act II, Scene ii.In Shakespeare's England, roses were more than poetic symbols of love and beauty—they were political emblems, medicinal ingredients, culinary flavorings, and the foundation of a flourishing perfumery trade. From the red and white blooms of civil war to the distillation practices in early modern households, the rose occupied a central place in the sensory world of the 16th and 17th centuries.This week, we're speaking with historian Dr. Aysu Dincer, whose research uncovers the real-life role roses played in Shakespeare's lifetime. From cultivation and trade to the recipes for perfumes and rosewaters that would have been familiar to Shakespeare's contemporaries, Aysu joins us to share the historical backstory of this iconic flower and explore what it meant to smell sweet in the Elizabethan age.

A Hung Jury For Hazel CombsJump To The AD-FREE Safe House EditionEpisode 387 starts out conventionally enough: A woman murders her husband to collect the double indemnity insurance policy. But when after she cheats the hangman at the  end of Act II, the story doesn't stop there. Because of the legal technicalities of the insurance she took out, a jury still has to determine whether or not she committed the crime in Act III.Hear More Episodes About FEMMES FATALEBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-historian--2909311/support.Join us at The Safe House, where every resident gets the key and safe combination to the dusty old vault where they listen to the largest collection of True Crime Historian episodes available in the entire universe, all ad-free.

The Vermont DesperadoAd-Free Safe House EditionEpisode 386 tells the epic story of one of New England's most persistent scoundrels. It's the kind of story I delight in finding, that in another context would make a great Elmore Leonard or Carl Hiaasen novel, this one about a slippery but dim-witted thief, that would almost be comic if there wasn't a tragic loss of life in Act II, and even when he gets his come-uppance in Act III, there's still a couple of strange twists in the tale.

“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”— Hamlet, Act II, Scene 2The two hemispheres of our brain collaborate to produce a coherent understanding of the world—at least, that's what they're supposed to do. In his groundbreaking book, The Master and His Emissary, neuro-philosopher and psychiatrist, Iain McGilchrist, proposed that our culture has been captured by the left hemisphere, whose dogmatic, technical and irrational way of processing information leads it to manifestly dangerous conclusions about the way the world works. Importantly, the left hemisphere never changes its mind.In one of the widest-ranging conversations on Planet: Critical to date, Iain explains how we came to lose sight of the bigger picture by forsaking the intuition, creativity and intelligence of the right hemisphere. We discuss how our relationship to language makes and unmakes the world, the search for meaning, human agency, relationality, morality, art and the divine, with Iain clearly spelling out a path to human fulfilment—which may very well be the only thing which can save Earth from the worst of us.
