Eva Jurczyk's newest book, 6:40 to Montreal, is an homage to Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express. In this locked room thriller, 6 passengers and 1 steward get trapped in train, during a blizzard, with no wi-fi and all their fears and grief surface as the situation gets worse. We've all got irrational (or rational?) fears about being trapped, but Eva raises the stakes by drawing on her own experience with illness and how that changes how we view life. No spoilers in this episode, but this conversation will alter your view of a very bloody train car!

Nous parlons dans cet épisode du premier recueil de nouvelle de Christie après la Seconde Guerre mondiale : Les Travaux d'Hercule.Hercule Poirot va bientôt prendre sa retraite et il s'ennuie. Un soir, il reçoit un éminent professeur de littérature grecque et latine à Oxford. Ce dernier s'amuse de la différence entre notre ami détective et le héros grec dont il tient son prénom. Poirot révèle alors à son invité, presque choqué, qu'il n'a jamais lu l'Odyssée.Aidé de son efficace secrétaire, Miss Lemon, qui lui résume l'oeuvre et rassemble des informations sur le sujet, il se prend au jeu et décide de résoudre douze dernières enquêtes avant sa retraite, enquêtes qu'il choisira à son rythme et parce qu'elles correspondent à l'un des travaux d'Hercule.Nous avons été accompagnés pendant l'enregistrement par Laïd Seghir, que vous pouvez retrouver sur son blog, Le Sanctuaire de Prométhée ou sur ses comptes X et BlueSkyToutes nos informations sur le linktree d'Agatha Chrimstie Agatha Crimstie est un podcast du label Podcut.

Join me as I break down the ingenious misdirections and subtle clues Agatha Christie plants in Miss Marple's first four cases: 'The Murder at the Vicarage,' 'The Body in the Library,' 'The Moving Finger,' and 'A Murder is Announced.' I'll reveal what I missed initially, what most readers often overlook, and how Christie's techniques evolved. Discussing detailed observations, misidentifications, and ingenious plotting, you'll see just how cleverly Christie crafted these mysteries. Let's dive into St. Mary's Mead and unravel what makes these early Miss Marple stories timeless gems.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/jxcYcD5DtkU

Planet Poet-Words in Space – NEW PODCAST! LISTEN to my WIOX show (originally aired September 23rd, 2025) featuring returning guests, award-winning poet Lee Slonimsky and award-winning novelist Carol Goodman. Lee and Carol will discuss and read from their new books - Lee's latest bilingual poetry collection Pythagoras in Exile, which is published in Greece and translated by Katerina Mardakioupi, and Carol's latest Literary Mystery - Writers and Liars, set on a Greek Island. We'll also hear about their life together as mutual literary muses, and their fascination with the ancient world. Lee Slonimsky has published twenty books of poetry around the world, ten in the U. S. and ten others in countries ranging from Greece to Italy to Israel to India. His work has been anthologized several times, including in Everyman Library's Buzz Words. His latest book, a bilingual edition of Pythagoras in Exile, was published by Enipnio Press in Athens, Greece this past May.

Her books have been translated into sixteen languages. She lives in the Hudson Vallley. Visit: carolgoodman.com Praise for Lee Slonimsky “If Pythagoras and Sappho had ever met, they might have written soulful poems like these to each other.” – Anne Carson “The sonnet turns out to be the perfect—maybe even the Platonic—form for Lee Slonimsky's Pythagorean meditations…These variations on themes serve as an entrance into the philosopher's mind, as if we are thinking and discovering along with him.” -- A. E. Stallings (2011 winner of the MacArthur Foundation “Genius Prize”: Praise for Carol Goodman “An excellent riff on And Then There Were None unfolds within a setting steeped in sinister mythology.... An absolutely perfect vacation read.” —Booklist (starred review) “Goodman's latest delivers a mash-up of Greek mythology and Agatha Christie's classic mysteries, to delightful effect.”—Library Journal (starred review)

Britain serves up a triple shot of absurdity.First, the beloved Mr Men and Little Miss characters join forces with the estate of Agatha Christie to launch a new children's mystery series — turning Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple into cartoon detectives. Is it clever cultural cross-pollination, or simply literary heresy in pastel colours? Then, King Charles III travels to the Vatican to meet Pope Leo XIV, marking the first public prayer between an English monarch and a pontiff in half a millennium. Is it genuine reconciliation or royal diplomacy with incense? Finally, a London woman is fined £150 for pouring her coffee down a street drain — proving once again that Britain can turn caffeine into a crime scene faster than you can say “flat white.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.Supporters get updates on new projects and hot takes on the latest news plus Mark and Pete Extra in depth commentary episodes and Mark and Pete vs AI comedy episodes.

Send us a textWe open with the headline everyone's talking about: Saturday Night Live host Sabrina Carpenter dropping not one but two F-bombs during her performance. Was it an accident—or marketing genius? The crew recalls when saying that word on air could end your career (see: Charles Rocket, 1980) and marvels at how little anyone seems to care now. That morphs into a look back at TV's most shocking live moments, including the Bud Dwyer tragedy, and a reminder that some things on television really can't be unseen.From there the discussion shifts to streaming supremacy. The consensus? Apple TV+ might quietly be the new number one. Between prestige hits like The Lost Bus, Shrinking, and Lessons in Chemistry—and now Brad Pitt's F1 racing movie—Apple keeps outclassing competitors while HBO Max raises prices. Still, the question lingers: will F1 actually make Americans care about Formula One racing? Angelo's doubtful, Rhea's open-minded, and Glenn just wants to avoid another algorithm-driven flop.Naturally, that launches a Philly-centric tangent: the upcoming TV series about the making of Rocky that's currently filming around the city. The gang debates whether Sylvester Stallone's absence from the project is a bold move or a missed opportunity. Either way, they agree the story—and the city—deserve another moment in the spotlight.Jay's standing question of the week then takes over: If you could make a “making-of” series about any movie, what would it be? Glenn picks Caddyshack, calling it the most chaotic comedy production ever. Rhea goes with The Birdcage, imagining the behind-the-scenes magic between Robin Williams, Gene Hackman, and Nathan Lane. The group riffs on how both films were equal parts brilliance and madness, the kind of creative chaos that just doesn't exist anymore.Before signing off, everyone shares their weekly watchlist. Rhea recommends Maigret on PBS Masterpiece—a stylish French detective show that's surprisingly addictive. Glenn throws in And Then There Were None on Prime Video, an elegant Agatha Christie mystery, and The Lowdown on Hulu, a gritty noir starring Ethan Hawke. Angelo ends with The Perfect Neighbor on Netflix, a body-cam-style thriller that hits hard and stays with you long after the credits roll.LISTEN NOW to stay up to date on all you need to know regarding the latest and greatest in television and the big screens.MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPONSOR: Steven Singer Jewelers!The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes.

Greg Jenner is joined in Regency England by historian Dr Lucy Worsley and actor Sally Phillips to learn all about the life and works of literary legend Jane Austen on the 250th anniversary of her birth in December 1775. It is a truth universally acknowledged that Austen is one of England's best-loved authors, and the creator of such indelible characters as Elizabeth Bennet, Mr Darcy, Emma Woodhouse and Elinor and Marianne Dashwood. Whether you have read one of her six books – Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Mansfield Park – or seen one of the many adaptations, most of us have some experience with Austen. But her life story and how it influenced her writing is perhaps less well-known. This episode explores her early life as the daughter of a rural clergyman, takes a peek inside the books a teenage Jane was reading, and delves into her romantic and familial relationships to see what shaped Austen into the formidable literary talent she was. And it asks a key question: was Jane Austen, who wrote such wonderful women characters, a feminist? If you're a fan of iconic authors, Regency romances and women succeeding in a man's world, you'll love our episode on Jane Austen. If you want more incredible women authors with Dr Lucy Worsley, check out our episode on Agatha Christie. For more from Sally Phillips, listen to our episode on Fairy Tales. And for more Regency romance, there's our episode on Georgian Courtship. You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously. Every episode, Greg Jenner brings together the best names in history and comedy to learn and laugh about the past. Hosted by: Greg Jenner Research by: Clara Chamberlain and Charlotte Emily Edgeshaw Written by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow, Emma Nagouse, and Greg Jenner Produced by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow and Greg Jenner Audio Producer: Steve Hankey Production Coordinator: Ben Hollands Senior Producer: Emma Nagouse Executive Editor: Philip Sellars
I am sorry that Agatha Christie was alive when this aired. I can only hope she didn't have to sit through it. But we did!
In this exclusive Mary Grand A Halloween Murder interview, we explore a high school reunion gone horribly wrong. When old friends gather at a historic castle on the most haunted island in the world, nostalgia quickly turns to terror after one of them is found dead. Was it a tragic accident, a desperate suicide, or a calculated murder? With the castle locked down, everyone is a suspect, and time is running out to find the truth before the killer can escape.Author Mary Grand joins the podcast to unpack her thrilling new novel, a perfect Halloween read for fans of classic whodunits. We discuss why the Isle of Wight haunted island reputation, with its mysterious ley lines and numerous historic buildings, makes it the ultimate setting for a spooky mystery. Mary shares the fascinating Carisbrook Castle history, revealing how its past as a Saxon fort, a Norman stronghold, and a royal prison for Charles I inspired this chilling tale. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves intricate locked room mystery books, as Mary explains how she crafted a puzzle where the killer had to be one of the guests trapped inside the castle walls.Throughout this Mary Grand A Halloween Murder interview, we delve into the author's creative process. Mary talks about her beloved amateur detective from the Susan Flynn book series, and how Susan gets entangled in the investigation through her daughter, Zoe, who is a key suspect. We also explore the complex group dynamics of a high school reunion, the intense and frightening Ouija board scene, and the real-world research behind the plot, including the harrowing details of the synthetic drug 'spice' and how it's smuggled into prisons. Mary gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the actual Carisbrooke Castle ghost walk she attended for research and shares fun anecdotes about the famous Isle of Wight tomatoes and her tradition of naming fictional dogs after her friends' real-life pets. If you're a fan of Agatha Christie, you won't want to miss this deep dive into the craft of plotting a modern cozy mystery that keeps you guessing until the final page.ABOUT OUR GUEST:Mary Grand is the acclaimed author of the Susan Flynn book series, a collection of cozy mysteries set on the picturesque and eerie Isle of Wight.
