John and Craig dig through the mailbag to answer some of our trickiest listener questions. They lay out their best advice for first-time feature directors — from picking department heads to making sure your movie actually gets seen — and look at how to adapt Craig's “How to Write a Movie” for structuring a TV series. But that's not all! Do you owe your writer's group access to your contacts? How do you break out of the mailroom? Where should high-school students start? How far can adaptations stray from the source material? And how do you remain professional in the middle of a dumpster fire? We also follow up on tariffs, mysterious birds, and a different set of 36 Questions. In our bonus segment for premium members, we play John's new game, Strong Opinions, where we all have to guess each other's true feelings about things we didn't know were controversial.

Western hubris about water leads to really bad water policy - kate harriden Australia's First Peoples looked after the country's waterscapes for millennia before colonisation brought Western ways that exclude their contribution. This week on Earth Matters Wiradyuri woman and indigenous water expert kate harriden from the Monash Sustainable Development Institute explains how educating settler societies about indigenous ways of knowing is crucial to decolonising water management in Australia. Produced by Claudia Craig at the studios of 3CR on unceded Wurundjeri land. Sound recordings of Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra, created and supplied by kate harriden.

Today's broadcast is C1E95 for VibeOff Vrijdag, May 9th, 2025. Today's broadcast will be a one-time-only special twist on a FaceOff Friday, where, instead of comparing different versions of the same track against each other, we're comparing pairs (and occasionally trios) of different songs against each other which either have similar movements, or melodies, or instrumentation, or simply just vibes and asking you, the listener to not only tell us which one you like better, but whether or not the comparisons are even valid, and how strongly or weakly if so. So, in lieu of an 8th and final FaceOff Friday episode, Nerd Noise Radio is pleased to present: VibeOff Vrijdag (Vrijdag = the Dutch word for Friday). See the show notes for a link to a document which will allow you to grade me on these comparisons if you so choose!

May 6th: Kathy Tongay Dies (1953) Some murder cases are straightforward while others warrant thinking outside the box when considering someone's guilt. On May 6th 1953 a young girl lost her life in a tragic and fairly mysterious matter. Though it appeared like an accident at first glance, when all the facts were considered, suspicion fell on the one man who was supposed to love and care for her above all else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatots, https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/swimming-world-november-2021-presents-an-aquatots-murder-case-the-kathy-tongay-story-part-2/, https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/swimming-world-december-2021-presents-aquatots-murder-case-the-kathy-tongay-story-part-3/, https://issuu.com/swimmingworld/docs/oct21-online-b/s/13551986 Learn more about your ad choices.

You've probably heard about hydrogen water, electrolyte water, or structured water… But none of them come close to what Rob Gourley discovered. We're talking about a fifth phase of water that doesn't just hydrate you—it energizes your cells, grounds your body, boosts oxygen at the cellular level, and helps flush out toxins with zero stress on your kidneys. Rob Gourley is the mechanical engineer behind Watt-Ahh®, an oxygen- and hydrogen-infused water charged with electrons and powered by a gas he created called di-tetra gas. It has got a massive electron load and delivers pure bioenergetic support to your mitochondria. In this episode, Rob explains how this supercharged water works on a cellular level to raise voltage, drive detox, and replenish the body's actual energy currency—not sugar or fat, but oxygen loaded with electrons. He also shares the story behind creating the WIT machine, a breakthrough device now being used to reverse eye damage, neurological disorders, and circulation issues without pharmaceuticals or surgery. You'll never look at water the same way again. "Watt-Ahh® is probably the simplest, most efficient way to help your body deal with toxins in the environment. It's like a little red wagon—it carries nutrients in and carries the garbage out." ~ Rob Gourley In This Episode: - What is Watt-Ahh®? - How it delivers hydrogen and oxygen - Dentist's story: reversing extreme mercury toxicity - Vision restoration with WIT gas infusion and eye healing - Nerve damage repair and diabetic limb salvage with Watt-Ahh® - Applications of Watt-Ahh water - How Watt-Ahh® aids dementia and Parkinson's patients - Cellular Health: how Watt-Ahh enhances cell function - Lymphatic drainage improvement for better detoxification - Increasing nutrient absorption with Watt-Ahh - Recommendations for daily Watt-Ahh® consumption For more information, visit https://www.myersdetox.com Heavy Metals Quiz: Find out your toxicity score and receive a free video series on detoxification.

In the latest and award-winning Rising Tide: the Ocean Podcast, David Helvarg, and Vicki Nicholas Goldstein speak with Jeremy Rifkin, who wants us to rethink our home in the universe. He is a best-selling author of 23 books translated into 35 languages and a major climate advisor to the European Union and China. He has returned to basics with his newest book, "Planet Aqua," about how water is the animating force of life, something the team at Blue Frontier has long known and believed. Jeremy Rifkin gives his perspective on how to convert our approach to water from a 'resource' to a 'life source' that can guide us into a future better adapted to our amazing hydrosphere.

Fold in the cheese socks Yarn: Legacy Fiber Artz in the David...Fold in the cheese!!!! colorway (with cream/gray mini skein) Pattern: OMG Heel Socks by Megan Williams ($5 knitting pattern available on Ravelry) Needles: US 1.5 (2.5 mm) Ravelry Project Page Progress- almost to heel on the first sock Brainstorming I was inspired by Jenna(716knit) at the Fiber Witch Festival, had on a marled scrappy shawl that was gorgeous! It got me thinking that I really want to start something with my Legacy Fiber Artz minis from previous year advents. Maybe a Granny Stripe blanket? Or perhaps another Recollections crochet blanket. I made one in the summer of 2022 (check out my Ravelry Project Page). It uses fingering weight yarn held triple and treble crochets. You work each row right to left and cut each time. between each set of clusters you use a main color. Debating using Fibernymph 10g minis from last year's advent for those rows (notes say it used- about 8g per row but that's held triple which might just be too annoying). I'm debating making a smaller blanket that will live on the backseat of my car, draped over. Mostly for the pop of color with my gray interior but I bet the kids would use it when they're back there. I'd also like to make a crocheted granny square tank top for the summer so I could potentially use some of my minis for that. Do you have any ideas for me? From the Armchair The Wandering Purl YouTube channel- I have a Gilmore Girls sock sized bag from Bethany and I know lots of you are fans of her, but I didn't realize she had a channel! Enjoying her content, check it out. White Lotus- Season 3: it was a slow burn of a season with some seriously cringy content but I loved how the finale came together.

Knitting in Passing On Wed night before music rehearsal Megg asked me to help her cast on a Love Bug with Bernat Blanket to practice for school. (free crochet pattern on Ravelry). Yarn has a lot of twist, got all tangly and we stayed after to untangle it together while other cast members performed on stage. On the first night of rehearsal one of my cast-mates asked about my knitting and through that conversation we figured out we've worked together before. She was the choreographer when I was in a production of Crazy for You at a local community college when I was in high school. I wore my Aurealis sweater (Ravelry Project Page) one night to music rehearsal and my friend Deana complimented it and I told her I knit it! Laura's sock drawer! How gorgeous is this? In My Travels Vegas trip for BOSS Reseller Remix & FearLESS Living Fund 2025 Awards We gave away 2 $5,000 scholarships Mom's friend Crystal got a fearless tattoo on her arm. We enjoyed visiting the Sphere to see the Postcards from Earth documentary. We checked out the Bellagio Conservatory for their beautiful display of Easter decor/flowers. Knitting at craps table with Jeff. The manager told me he doesn't see many firsts anymore but I was the first person he'd ever seen knitting in a casino before. He came back a few minutes later asking what I was making- definitely intrigued. It took until the last day- walking through New York New York to find Wizard of Oz slots Mom loved best. It was obviously a bittersweet trip. Ryan Wilson said it best when he said before talking about 2 winners- in some ways this is the most important year because its the first one without Mom and we're still doing it. If you want to see the awards presentation, here's a link to video on my YouTube channel. Boston Public Market Fiber Fest- Sunday March 23 from 10a-5p.

Have you heard of it? Ask Me Anything Instagram- Knitbakecook- Do you ever have crafting slumps? If so, how do you overcome them? Yes! Sometimes it helps just to lean into that, don't pressure yourself and then lean back in when you get the urge. More often, what works best is to start something new (or pick back up something that is exciting you). Ideally something small like a hat or a toy so you get that dopamine hit of finishing something fun to get those creative juices flowing. Search your Ravelry favorite or queue, browse Instagram or Pinterest and let yourself day dream a little. Creative time should be fun so find the fun and you'll be excited to get back into things. Instagram- ndoyal- When are you coming to the PNW?! I am planning to go to Flock in August. Instagram- nukerklein- Have you been or are you planning to go to VT Sheep & Wool in the fall? This year it's October 4-5 (Dad's birthday- so likely not this year) Check out this vlog from 2024 trip to VT Sheep & Wool. NDoyal- Dates for Splash Pad Sunday June 1 through Thursday July 31st.

So in the 17th Century, in Rome, Giulia Tofana led a group of women who made devotional oils, cosmetic liquids and of course, poison. This poison was a famed untraceable and undetectable poison for it's time and it was dubbed Aqua Tofana. 4 doses they said, could put any man in his grave. It was a way for women, who could not get a divorce to get out of some very bad situations and over 20 years, these women claimed to have killed over 600 men, We discuss the poison, the time, the place and famous folks who felt they were victims of this strange brew. We also talk bodily autonomy, the trend 'Make Aqua Tofana Great Again', Dandy's World, The Princess Bride, (Princess Buttercup has entered the chat), iocaine powder and just plain being decent to one another in this, wait, they REALLY did that episode of the Family Plot Podcast!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.
