While traveling about a hunter was overtaken by darkness and thought, “I will camp for the night and go home next morning.” Near by was something which he took to be a tree pulled up by the roots, and he thought, “I will make a fire there.” So he leaned his gun up against it and hung his shot pouch on it. But really it was a bison and what he hung his shot pouch on was the horn. It got up and ran off bellowing, carrying the shot pouch. After it got a long distance away it threw it off.

We do not talk about Jeremy Irons enough on this show. He is an actor's actor who we do not see in genre often. His involvement in the remake of a 1980s cult classic changes that and has us excited. We also revisit our conversation about how comedians have positively affected horror. Plus, bad pedophiles vs good ones.We like when PR companies go the extra mile and the marketing for Bone Lake has been inspired. From suggestively placing the R rating to some cool posters, the film's promotion has been eye-catching. The over the top opening adds to this with lots of nudity and a gruesome kill.When it turns things down, it is to an almost shocking degree that may cause people to turn out. Which is a shame, since Bone Lake becomes an excellent psychological thriller that does an excellent job of toying with audience expectations. It also boasts one of the strongest performances of the year.Since returning in 2021, the V/H/S series has put out some great releases. They have taken things to he past along with trying out new things like sci-fi horror. This year the franchise tackles something that John Carpenter was never able to do. V/H/S Halloween sees the found footage anthology turn its eye towards a particular holiday in October.There have been some fun segments, but this is the most fun V/H/S has been as an overall product in years. It perfectly captures the Halloween spirit and presents stories that range from scary to funny. And all of them are gross. This is one of the movies that will become a regular tradition.But there is a major caveat. V/H/S Halloween also has the darkest segment in the history of the franchise. It will be a polarizing watch that many people may skip. Others will think it is great extreme horror. One thing is for sure; the segment is one of the best seen in the V/H/S series, but it feels out of place in this year's edition.

Important Quotes from the podcast on Business and Entrepreneurship   There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. - Naval Ravikant   You have to work up to the point where you can own equity in a business. You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company. Ownership is really important.     Everybody who really makes money at some point owns a piece of a product, a business, or some IP. That can be through stock options if you work at a tech company. That's a fine way to start.

 We welcome Jill Amy Sager—an award-winning author, public speaker, intuitive Tarot reader, and spiritual channel whose story is as inspiring as it is transformative. Jill's journey began in the late 1970s when she first studied Tarot, never imagining that it would lead her to channel wisdom from the Universe—what she lovingly calls “Guidance.” Over time, her gift as a spiritual medium grew, and today she serves an international clientele, offering clarity, healing, and connection through the Tarot and intuitive messages. Born with a physical disability, Jill spent much of her childhood in hospitals, facing the stigma of being a disabled child in the 1960s. What once left her feeling unworthy ultimately became the foundation of her strength. She credits the wisdom of the Tarot and the love of Universal Guidance for transforming her self-image and helping her embrace a life of confidence and purpose. Her creative journey is just as remarkable. Once a percussionist, Jill became an author when her book Beginning Hand Drumming: A Guide to Recreation and Wellness was published by Carl Fischer Music. Since then, her work has been featured in outlets such as Women Writers, Women's Books, Story Circle, Awakened Magazine, The Register Guard, Silver Birch Press, Authority Magazine, and The Power of Each Breath: A Disabled Women's Anthology. In this episode, Jill shares:   How Tarot can be a tool for empowerment and spiritual guidance   Her experience of overcoming stigma and disability to embrace her worth   The evolution from musician to writer to intuitive healer   How “Guidance” continues to shape her life and inspire her global community Join us for an uplifting conversation about resilience, spirituality, and the transformative power of trusting Universal wisdom.

645. Part 2 of our interview with David Ballantyne about post Civil-War Reconstruction of the Red River Valley. He has given the history on the area in his book, Fractured Freedoms: Reconstruction in Central Louisiana. “Fractured Freedoms is a riveting history of central Louisiana from the 1860s to the 1890s, focusing on majority-Black Rapides Parish during Reconstruction. Using the region as a case study, Ballantyne reveals what is, in part, a rural Reconstruction success story, emphasizing the resilience of Black politics and the persistence of significant divisions among white residents that allowed the Republican Party to gain and maintain power there. It was only with the collapse of state-level Republican power in 1877 that Democratic forces in the parish were able to dismantle local Republican political control and gradually constrict Black freedoms" (LSU Press).

Rebecca van Laer, "First Date."    She orders oysters, of course I don't know how to do this, to slip a three-pronged fork under the white flesh of some mollusk and wiggle soft globes of muscle from the black mass of shell, the lemongrass broth the dense gem swims in —     how to pop it out and into my mouth and then suck, savor the dense slip of it, then again: a sequence of teasing, eating, repeating, and this is only    our appetizer. I'm gulping My glass of pinot grigio, wet fingerprints along the stem because I can't pronounce the name of a single entrée, meet her eyes across a candelabra with the weight     of a fresco above her head, ridiculous cherubs entreating with their fat blue eyes.

644. Part 1 of our interview with David T. Ballantyne about his book, Fractured Freedoms: Reconstruction in Central Louisiana. "Fractured Freedoms is a riveting history of central Louisiana from the 1860s to the 1890s, focusing on majority-Black Rapides Parish during Reconstruction. Using the region as a case study, Ballantyne reveals what is, in part, a rural Reconstruction success story, emphasizing the resilience of Black politics and the persistence of significant divisions among white residents that allowed the Republican Party to gain and maintain power there. It was only with the collapse of state-level Republican power in 1877 that Democratic forces in the parish were able to dismantle local Republican political control and gradually constrict Black freedoms." (LSU Press). Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 221 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. We've recently added Mosquitoes, one of William Faulkner's early novels. Faulkner was one of the South's greatest writers. He wrote this novel about the artists he had met in the French Quarter. He put them on a yacht that took them through Lake Pontchartrain until they ran aground and were stranded for several days. That's right, Faulkner basically created Gilligan's Isle.     "The violet dusk held in soft suspension lights slow as bellstrokes, Jackson square was now a green and quiet lake in which abode lights round as jellyfish, feathering with silver mimosa and pomegranate and hibiscus beneath which lantana and cannas bled and bled. Pontalba and cathedral were cut from black paper and pasted flat on a green sky; above them taller palms were fixed in black and soundless explosions. The street was empty, but from Royal street there came the hum of a trolley that rose to a staggering clatter, passed on and away leaving an interval filled with the gracious sound of inflated rubber on asphalt, like a tearing of endless silk. Clasping his accursed bottle, feeling like a criminal, Mr. Talliaferro hurried on.     "He walked swiftly beside a dark wall, passing small indiscriminate shops dimly lighted with gas and smelling of food of all kinds, fulsome, slightly overripe. The proprietors and their families sat before the doors in tilted chairs, women nursing babies into slumber spoke in soft south European syllables one to another. Children scurried before him and about him, ignoring him or becoming aware of him and crouching in shadow like animals, defensive, passive and motionless." This week in Louisiana history. September 20, 1717. Gov. LePinay recalled to France after "ruining the colony." This week in New Orleans history.

F**k'd up world, ain't it Untitled Beatle People? Like all rational weirdos, we're fed up with the fascism that (as of this writing) has removed Jimmy Kimmel from the airwaves. We stand with a fellow comic and avowed Beatles/Letterman stan, and against both censorship and emotionally crippled, diabolical jag bags. Fortunately… we have the perfect antidote to the state of the world, as we go back through the mists of time (cue “The Long & Winding Road” from “Tripping The Live Fantastic”)…to a time they call the 60's (…more magic piano blues noodling…) and welcome a die-hard, O.G. Beatles fan and Chicago legend, “Beatle” Fred Ciba! From being at the Beatles historic Chicago shows to shopping at the Apple Boutique and visiting the original Cavern Club, Fred experienced it all, in real time. Join us as Fred provides a fascinating glimpse into the exhilaration of Beatlemania, as heard on Chicago's bygone, legendary rock radio stations like WLS, WIND, and WCFL. Fred also puts up with a fair amount of unnecessary, and, arguably, outright disrespectful nonsense from T.J. (YA SHOCKED?) as the Gab Two also ask:

How far is TOO far to go for records? No, no, we are not talking about putting sugar in your competition's gas tank. Our dais of dedicated vinylists discuss just how far they would travel to seek out new (to them) records. But first, they dive into current events in the world of record collecting including news of another UHQR release, a Bob Dylan box set announcement, a Neil Young box set announcement, a coveted Spacehog album gets a reissue, and The Beatles (we couldn't do a show without them) dropped Anthology 4 as a stand-alone release.  All that and much, much more.

I chat with editors Zack Grafman and Frank Theodat about the need for aspirational books for boys. Many recommendations from the Dads here, including classics like The Hardy Boys, Treasure Island, Jules Verne but also some new stuff (Redwall, How to Train your Dragon, even some video games). We also talk the (potential) opportunity within independent publishing to create and distribute through “underground, conspiratorial, vibes based marketing” books that counter safe, effeminate, and uninspiring mainstream offerings. ‘Based Boys Books,' as Zack puts it. Look out for the launch of 'The Boys Book of Adventure Anthology,' a new collection deliberately crafted to appeal to boys, as boys. The Anthology also happens include my next ‘Leo and Henry' Adventure.Intro/Outro: The Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone This is a public episode.

We discuss: Why personal networks matter most when raising money quickly for big deals New investments in companies building genetically engineered animals, advanced airships, and solar-powered synthetic natural gas How real operational experience shapes the way we invest and support founders The balance of optimism and realism required to keep taking shots in business Quotes from Al: “Just keep taking the shots. A shooter's gotta shoot.” “Sometimes you take the shot, do everything right, and the ball still doesn't go in.” “There's no classy way to advertise, ‘Hey, your favorite store died—but we're a good rebound.'” “Capitalism is an unforgiving mistress.” “Personal relationships were the most valuable asset I had in that deal.” “Sometimes I think, ‘I should be inventing Facebook 2,' but here I am—investing in fabric.” “I've never worked on a deal that hard. It should have gone my way… and didn't.” “You wake up the next morning and it didn't happen, but I still have a great family, and my business is still running.” “It's hard until it isn't—and even when it isn't, it's still freaking hard.” Quotes from Bo: “We're actual operators—curious about what's possible with technology—and that makes us better investors.” “On a Thursday, ‘This deal is happening.' Then Tuesday? ‘It's over. We lost.'” “We have a unique amount of empathy for founders—because we know how hard this shit is.” “If you can pull it off, it's transformational. And that's awesome.” (on Airship) “A blimp is not a quadcopter to carry Al's big ass—it's an elegant, slow-moving blimp.” “There's a lot of industries still doing 90/10 in-store sales. That blew my mind.” “It's a real ‘software is eating the world' moment—but finally arriving at the mining industry.” “When you're building something that matters, you're playing the long game—even if the outcome is uncertain.” “The people who make glow-in-the-dark fish… now they're building unicorns. And yeah, it's gonna happen.”

"Set in post-Katrina New Orleans, this hour-long drama series, from executive producers David Simon and Eric Overmyer, follows the lives of ordinary residents as they struggle with the after-effects of the 2005 hurricane.

The large ensemble cast is supported by notable real-life New Orleanians, including many of its famous musicians." "Roxanne Harde is Professor of English at the University of Alberta's Augustana Faculty, where she also serves as Associate Dean, Research.

The South needs “Yankees.” An ex-Confederate, discussing Alexandria, said: “A dozen live Yankees would regenerate this town, and make fortunes at it.” They would pave the streets, cover in the sewers, build up the vacant spots in the heart of the city, supply mechanical work at less inhuman prices than are now charged, and make this rich and intelligent community as attractive in appearance as the citizens are socially. One such man has made a new city of Alexandria. He has made the people pave their streets, put in modern sewerage, water, electricity, etc., build most creditable structures to house the public officials, and in a word, has “hustled the South,” till it had to put him temporarily out of office until it got its “second wind.” This week in Louisiana history.

In today's episode Mark Stevens talks with the Sun's Kevin Simpson about producing the Colorado Book Award-winning anthology "Four Corners Voices".See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michael Dean — architect-turned-writer, O'Shaughnessy Fellow, and creator of Essay Architecture — joins the show to explore the hidden structures beneath nonfiction and why essays, like buildings, can be designed with patterns rather than left to inspiration. We discuss the origins of Essay Architecture, Michael's 27-pattern framework that maps essays across Idea, Form, and Voice, and how to make craft teachable and AI feedback useful without replacing the writer. Along the way, we dive into architecture school critiques, why publishable doesn't mean perfect, how editing rewires thinking, and the cultural risks if we keep treating writing as vibes instead of patterns. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. For the full transcript, episode takeaways, and bucketloads of other goodies designed to make you go, “Hmm, that's interesting!”, check out our Substack.
