Ryan, Jose, and David analyzed the story's themes, characters, and connections to other Barker works, especially its similarities to Hellraiser. They discussed the narrative of a group of young thugs who steal a magical knotted cord from a transient, leading to the release of three creatures representing evolutionary stages. The trio explored the story's themes of evolution, hidden knowledge, and the transformative power of magic. They also touched on potential adaptations, the evolution of special effects, and the podcast's Patreon supporters. The episode concluded with a preview of upcoming content, including a commentary on Angel Heart and a future discussion on Pinhead sketches by Clive Barker. Book Discussion on Development Stages Jose and Ryan discussed a book they were reading, with Jose mentioning insights about human fetal development stages. Ryan revealed he had studied medieval philosophy rather than evolutionary topics in school, which explained his lack of knowledge about the developmental stages Jose referenced. The conversation ended abruptly as Jose mentioned something from a previous episode. Religious Philosophy and Media Discussion Jose and Ryan discussed the Manichaeans, a religious philosophy that viewed the devil as an equal and opposite force to God. They also talked about beer from a local brewery and the challenges of being on camera for non-native English speakers. The conversation then shifted to the topic of dubbing versus subtitles in foreign films, particularly in Japanese movies, and the role of Laserdiscs in providing region-free and undubbed content. Book Club of Blood Episode The group discussed various topics including vintage movie formats, gaming collectibles, and comic book adaptations before transitioning into a Book Club of Blood episode. Jose shared his recent viewing of "The Return" and "Jason and the Argonauts," while Ryan and wnbla discussed special effects in classic films. The conversation ended with Ryan confirming this was another Book Club of Blood episode focused on a specific volume. Clive Barker's "Inhuman Condition" Analysis The group discussed Clive Barker's "Inhuman Condition" from Volume 4 of the Books of Blood, comparing it to the more famous Hellraiser story. They analyzed the characters and plot, particularly focusing on how the knots found their owner Carney and the creatures released from them. The discussion covered themes of hidden power in seemingly ordinary people and parallel worlds accessible through objects like the knots. The conversation also touched on how Barker often writes about magicians who appear ordinary but possess hidden abilities. Evolution Theme Plot Review Jose discussed the evolution theme in the story, involving reptilian, simian, and human-like creatures. The group reviewed plot details about Carney finding a knot in Red's hand and Brendan's call to the wrecking yard. They described the final confrontation scene where Pope captures Brendan using a knot, and Carney must work to free him while hiding from Pope's attack. Pope Carney Story Adaptation Discussion The group discussed a story involving Pope, Carney, and a magical knot that contains a creature representing Pope's brother. They explored how the story could be adapted into a movie or TV show, noting it would need additional content beyond the original narrative. The discussion revealed key plot points including how Pope's brother was transformed through evolutionary stages captured in knots, and how Carney discovers Pope's spell book at the end. The conversation also touched on how Pope represents the Church's role in hiding knowledge about evolution. Anatomical Challenges and Story Development The group discussed the historical challenges anatomists faced working in secret due to religious opposition, with Jose explaining how anatomical knowledge was considered sinful. Ryan shared a personal experience of feeling uncomfortable during a college health class when learning about the circulatory system, which led to a broader discussion about the human body being "a bag of bones" and "a flesh machine." The conversation then shifted to discussing potential storylines for a character named Carney, including possibilities of him becoming a powerful magician or CEO, and ended with a suggestion about creating an animated series based on Clive Barker's Books of Blood anthology.

If you're Jason, and you need to find that golden fleece in order to escape the curse of the man with the one sandal, and then get back to your hometown of Iolcus to reclaim the throne from Uncle Stealy, don't let some six-armed heaving monsters, midnight mistaken identity, and the loss of Superman (Heracles) slow you down. This week Jeff and Dave resume their voyage through the story of the Argonauts by polishing off the adventures of Book I. But has any epic hero lacked more luster than this guy? When Hercules goes off to find something to replace his now toothpicked oar, and his trustee squire Hylas gets nymphnapped, the hulking brute is off the boat from grief and on the hunt for the ensnared lad. This is the perfect time for Jason to step up, act like Achilles, Aeneas, or at least Odysseus. Instead, the whole nested tale has more than a Whiff of Elpenor™ quality to it, and Jason sits brooding, quietly. Tune in to take a deeper look into this Hellenistic epic. Is it big book, big problem, à la Callimachus, or does Apollonius win this round?

The Toronto Argonauts couldn't have picked a better time to put together their most complete performance of the season. Facing what Ben Grant called a must-win game, the Double Blue delivered in all three phases, defeating the BC Lions 26-12 to head into the bye week with momentum and finally bring their marathon road trip to an end. The victory wasn't without its concerns. Chad Kelly was outstanding before leaving in the second quarter with what appeared to be a neck injury. Before exiting, he had the offence operating at an elite level, and while his status will be the biggest storyline over the bye week, Nick Arbuckle stepped in and guided the offence efficiently the rest of the way. He even showed off a little mobility, making several timely plays with his legs in a performance that helped secure the win. Defensively, the Argos were relentless. Toronto recorded four sacks - including two from newly signed veteran Shawn Lemon - and came within inches of several interceptions while consistently frustrating the Lions' offence. Special teams were equally impressive, as James Burnip continued his outstanding play with a 52.4-yard punting average, rookie Brady Lidster connected on four of his five field-goal attempts, and Janarion Grant repeatedly flipped field position with nearly 20 yards per punt return, including three explosive returns. Ben Grant and JB break down Toronto's most complete effort of 2026, discuss the impact of Shawn Lemon's return, hand out their Players of the Game and Plays of the Game, and bring you radio highlights from TSN 1050 with Mike Hogan. They'll also examine the injury concerns surrounding Chad Kelly, linebacker Owen Goss, and cornerback Benji Franklin, and what those injuries could mean as the Argos head into a much-needed bye week. Toronto now returns home at 3-4 with confidence, momentum, and a chance to reset before welcoming the Calgary Stampeders to BMO Field on August 6. The road trip is finally over—and the Argos may have found their identity just in time.

The Toronto Argonauts have reached a crossroads. After nearly two months on the road, the Double Blue head to Vancouver for what might be the most important game of the season. A win over the BC Lions sends Toronto into its bye week with momentum and in a good position in the standings before finally returning home. A loss would mean three straight defeats to backup quarterbacks and plenty of questions heading into the second half of the season. This week, Ben Grant and JB break down Toronto's latest roster moves, including the return of two familiar faces. Veteran pass-rusher Shawn Lemon is back for a third stint with the Argonauts, bringing 103 career sacks and three Grey Cup rings to a defensive line in need of reinforcements. DeWayne Hendrix also returns just one week after being released, as Toronto continues to shuffle its roster amid a growing list of injuries. The guys also congratulate Jack Cassar on being selected for induction into the Carleton Ravens Hall of Fame, recognizing one of the most accomplished defensive careers in program history and the outstanding CFL career he's continued to build with the Argonauts.

The Toronto Argonauts suffered a heartbreaking 24-23 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Saturday night, and while the lasting image will be Lirim Hajrullahu's missed 31-yard field goal as time expired, Ben Grant and JB explain why the game was lost long before the final kick. Yes, Hajrullahu missed the game-winning field goal. Yes, he also missed an extra point earlier in the contest. But football is the ultimate team game, and this defeat belonged to all three phases. On offence, the CFL's highest-scoring unit got off to a dream start, marching down the field for a touchdown on its opening possession. From there, however, Toronto managed just three points over the next three quarters before mounting a furious fourth-quarter comeback that ultimately came up one point short. Chad Kelly finished with over 320 passing yards, but the Argos simply waited too long to find their rhythm. Defensively, the numbers tell one story, but the film tells another. Holding Hamilton to 24 points should be enough to win most nights, but the Tiger-Cats did all of their scoring through the first three quarters. By the fourth, Hamilton was without both starting offensive tackles and had a fullback playing guard on an all-Canadian offensive line. The Argos finally took control defensively, but earlier in the game they struggled to contain Tre Ford, repeatedly taking poor pursuit angles and allowing him to escape what should have been drive-ending sacks. On this week's Postgame Reaction, Ben and JB dig into every turning point, every missed opportunity, and why it's far too simplistic to pin the loss on one player or one kick. They also highlight the bright spots, including the resilience Toronto showed in battling back to give itself a chance in the final seconds. The easy takeaway is that one missed field goal cost Toronto the game. The correct takeaway is that a collection of mistakes over four quarters left the Argos badly needing that kick. Ben Grant and JB break it all down on this week's Xs and Argos Postgame Reaction.
Before the Odyssey, there was Jason and the Argonauts! The story of a man on a quest to defy the gods themselves! And also get help from the Gods. Honestly the gods aren't consistent.

The Toronto Argonauts left Winnipeg feeling like they let one get away. Despite holding Brady Oliveira to just 64 total yards, forcing two turnovers, and limiting the Blue Bombers to a single offensive touchdown, the Argos fell 30-21 in a game where mistakes in all three phases ultimately proved too much to overcome. Ben Grant and JB break down a frustrating night at Princess Auto Stadium, where Chad Kelly turned in another strong performance and Makai Polk continued his emergence as one of the CFL's most dangerous receivers. But while the passing game generated big plays, the offensive line struggled to consistently handle Winnipeg's four-man rush, and after Sam Hicks burst through for a 26-yard run on Toronto's opening drive, the Argos managed just four rushing yards from him the rest of the night. The turning point came on special teams. Trailing by one score in the fourth quarter, Toronto missed a 40-yard field goal that was returned 129 yards by Trey Vaval for a touchdown - a devastating 10-point swing in a game ultimately decided by nine. Combined with other special teams miscues throughout the evening, it was the difference between flying home with a statement road win and leaving Winnipeg empty-handed. On this week's Postgame Reaction, Ben and JB examine the game through all three phases, discuss the early tackling issues on defence, why the unit still deserves plenty of credit for its overall performance, and where the offence and special teams must improve heading into next week's game against Hamilton.

Argonauts vs. Blue Bombers CFL Betting Odds & Picks, 7/10/26 | Night Moves Show by Ramon Scott.
Radio stations broadcast kids shows, radio dramas, and radio plays across Australia including the much loved Blue Hills.
The Toronto Argonauts suffered their toughest loss of the young season Thursday night, falling 58-36 to the Calgary Stampeders in a game that slipped away just before halftime. For much of the opening half, the Argos were right where they wanted to be. The offence moved the football, special teams made several positive contributions, and Toronto looked poised to head into the break within striking distance. Then, with just 27 seconds remaining in the second quarter, Vernon Adams Jr. connected on a 73-yard touchdown pass that completely changed the complexion of the game. From that point on, Calgary seized control and never looked back. While the final score won't sit well with anyone in Double Blue, Ben Grant and JB explain why the offence wasn't the story. Chad Kelly and the Argos moved the ball effectively for much of the night, and there were encouraging performances across the offensive unit and on special teams. Instead, the difference was Calgary's ability to consistently attack Toronto through the air, as Vernon Adams Jr. put together the best passing performance of the young CFL season. On this week's Postgame Reaction, Ben and JB identify two specific areas Calgary repeatedly targeted on offence and discuss why it gave Toronto's defence so much trouble. More importantly, they examine whether those issues are correctable before next week's showdown with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. They'll also have radio replays with Mike Hogan from the call on TSN 1050. The Argos now have a full week to regroup before facing another major test on the road. Ben Grant and JB break down what went wrong, what still went right, and where the Double Blue go from here.
By way of Christopher Nolan, The Odyssey is hitting cinemas in July, an epic fantasy action bonanza based on Homer's Odyssey. Its use of scale and practical effects harken back to the movies and stories he grew up on, including this one, Jason and the Argonauts from 1963. Featuring groundbreaking effects from stopmotion and dynomation wizard Ray Harryhausen, he considers it the pinnacle of his work, with the giant bronze statue Talos, the seven headed Hydra and of course the skeleton battle sequence.

The Toronto Argonauts have won two straight and now head to Calgary for their fourth consecutive road game, looking to improve to 3-1 and continue climbing the East Division standings. This week, Ben Grant and JB celebrate two of the newest members of the All-Time Argos. The guys reflect on the remarkable careers of linebacker Kevin Eiben and defensive back Carl Brazley, discussing why both legends earned their place among the greatest players in franchise history and what made each of them so special. Ben and JB dive into the tactical battle that could decide the game. How can the Argos neutralize Calgary's talented defensive front? Should Chad Kelly continue to rely on quick decisions, tempo, and moving the pocket? And can Toronto's offence continue the efficiency it displayed in Regina? Plus: A discussion on Toronto's locker room culture and why it matters over the course of a CFL season A full game preview of Argos vs. Stampeders Injury Report Pick Six, explaining some of the football terminology fans hear every week OCDC: How should each team attack the opposing defence? One Thing Put Me Down for 20 Challenge Flag The road doesn't get any easier, but another win in Calgary would further establish the Argonauts as one of the CFL's hottest teams heading into Week 6.
In this episode of Domina Tempora, we explore why twins have fascinated and unsettled humanity for millennia — from the divine Gemini Castor and Pollux, inseparable yet divided by mortality, to the countless twin myths that echo across cultures.We examine how these legendary brothers, born of Zeus and Leda, embodied the eternal tension between mortal and immortal, loyalty and rivalry, protection and sacrifice. Their story of shared destiny, heroic quests with the Argonauts, and ultimate transformation into the stars reveals deep human anxieties about identity, duality, and what it means to be truly connected to another.If the mysterious power of twins, divine brotherhood, fate, and the thin line between gods and men captivates you, my debut novel Clotho Unbound dives deep into similar themes of forbidden connection and cosmic consequences. In its pages, Clotho — the Fate who has spun death for Zeus across the ages — becomes entangled with Aphrodite in stolen, blasphemous nights that make the Loom of Fate itself tremble. Their love is treason. Their passion could unravel destiny.Clotho Unbound is out now — order your copy today on Amazon

Halftime Report - Week4 - Roughriders vs Argonauts - June 26, 2026
The Argonauts are searching for their first win of the 2026 season, and this week's challenge comes with an extra layer of intrigue. Ben Grant and JB get you set for Toronto's trip to Ottawa, where the Argos will face their former head coach Ryan Dinwiddie for the first time. After re-watching Toronto's season-opening loss in Montreal, the guys dig into what actually worked better than the result might suggest. Chad Kelly threw for 445 yards, but where did the offence leave yards on the field? What can the Argos do to get Damonte Coxie and Makai Polk more involved? And why might Sam Hicks be the key to unlocking even more from Toronto's offence this week? Defensively, Ben and JB examine a unit that struggled to generate pressure without blitzing and discuss how that affected the secondary throughout the night. What adjustments need to be made heading into a matchup with Jake Maier and an Ottawa offence loaded with playmakers? Plus: How much of an advantage does Ryan Dinwiddie have knowing the core of this Argos roster so well? The latest injury news, including concerns along the offensive line following Kendall Randolph's injury Week 3 may not be a must-win (unless you're JB), but it's a significant early-season test for a Toronto team looking to avoid an 0-2 start. Ben Grant and JB break it all down on the latest edition of the Xs and Argos Pregame Walkthrough.

The CFL's new 35 second clock seems to be getting closer to an actual 35 seconds between the end of the previous play and when next the football must be put back in play. The single point (rouge) underwent changes to its application; were the modifications too many and too far? Ottawa Head Coach Ryan Dinwiddie opts to punt at the opposition 42, would not a field goal attempt been more optimal? Quarterback Chad Kelly finally returns to lead the Argonauts onto the same field that put him on the shelf in the third quarter of the 2024 East Final. Can Elks' running back Justin Rankin become the league's first 1000 yard rusher and 1000 yard receiver in the same season? Rankin is off to a great start. Is Saturday's Saskatchewan versus BC a statement game or is it about revenge? (TSN game audio, CFL on CBC theme music used with express permission; podcast recorded June 9, 2026).

The wait is over. Argos football is back, and Ben Grant and JB are here to get you set for the Toronto's season opener Friday night in Montreal. This week, the guys break down a handful of notable roster moves, including the addition of Canadian offensive lineman Dominico Piazza, an intriguing prospect Ben has followed since his days at McGill, and the practice roster signings of Michael Buckley and Dathan Hickey. They also discuss former Argo Anthony Vandal landing on Montreal's practice roster and what may have led to the release of Theron Johnson. One of the biggest storylines facing Toronto this season is a schedule quirk unlike any other: the Argos will begin the year with seven consecutive road games. Ben and JB discuss the challenge that presents, how important a fast start could be, and why Friday night's matchup feels bigger than a typical contest. The guys also dive into their game preview, injury report, and a detailed OC/DC breakdown of how each team can attack the other. Should Montreal lean on the run game or test Toronto's revamped safety position? Can Chad Kelly and the Argos exploit vulnerabilities in the middle of the Alouettes' secondary? And how much of Toronto's offensive success will come down to one simple objective: keeping their franchise quarterback upright? Plus: Pick Six One Thing Put Me Down for 20 Challenge Flag The 2026 season is finally here. Ben Grant and JB get you ready for kickoff as the Argonauts head to Montreal looking to start the year on the right foot.
The CFL season is finally here! With final roster cuts now complete, the guys break down the most surprising decisions Toronto made, including the departures of Aaron Casey, Anthony Vandal, and Peyton Logan. They also take a position-by-position look at the 2026 Argonauts and discuss how the roster stacks up heading into the season. The biggest news of the week may have come after final cuts, as Toronto signed former Winnipeg Blue Bombers starting tackle Kendall Randolph. Ben and JB discuss why this could prove to be one of the most important additions of the offseason and what it means for the offensive line moving forward. The conversation then shifts to the CFL's new six-year television agreement, which keeps TSN as the league's primary broadcast partner while adding DAZN beginning in 2027. What does the deal mean for the future of the CFL and the league's financial outlook? Plus, despite coming off a Grey Cup championship just two seasons ago and returning a healthy Chad Kelly, the Argos are finding themselves near the bottom of many preseason power rankings. Ben and JB debate whether the skepticism is justified and offer their own expectations for the 2026 campaign.

fWotD Episode 3294: Golden Bough (Aeneid) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 12 May 2026, is Golden Bough (Aeneid).The Golden Bough is a fantastical object described in the Aeneid, an epic poem by the Roman poet Virgil composed between 29 and 19 BCE narrating the adventures of the Trojan hero Aeneas after the Trojan War. The episode of the Golden Bough is found in its sixth book and is part of Aeneas's journey into the Underworld. The bough itself acts as proof of Aeneas's divine favour, and allows him to pass into the Underworld. He is tasked to find it in an expansive forest, which he accomplishes with the aid of his mother, the goddess Venus, and to remove it from its host tree. Although Aeneas has been told that it would come easily, if his journey is ordained by fate, Virgil describes the bough as briefly hesitating before he takes it.Virgil's portrayal of the bough has no direct literary antecedents, though it draws on several precedents from literature, folklore and philosophy. Scholars have connected it with, among others, the Golden Fleece in the story of the Argonauts; symbolic objects associated with deities such as Hermes, Dionysus and Circe; and the branches carried by prospective initiates into the Eleusinian Mysteries, a Greek religious rite centred on a symbolic journey into the Underworld. Virgil associates it with both death and immortality, partly by way of symbolic associations in Graeco-Roman culture between gold and the gods. It also recalls ideas put forth by the Roman philosopher Lucretius as to the nature of the soul. The episode of the Golden Bough was parodied by authors including Virgil's contemporary Ovid, and drawn upon by later Roman poets including Lucan and Valerius Flaccus.Early interpretations of the Golden Bough tended to give it an allegorical function, particularly via Pythagorean and Neoplatonist philosophy, which viewed it as symbolic of the choice between virtue and vice. Medieval commentators often considered it a symbol of wisdom, and several Christian theologians interpreted it as representing Christian wisdom and virtue. In the sixteenth century, it became a heraldic symbol of the Florentine House of Medici. Early modern receptions of the bough, including those of François Rabelais and Jonathan Swift, were often parodic or obscene. In the twentieth century, scholars following the Harvard School interpretation of the Aeneid argued that Virgil's use of the bough reflected his ambivalence towards Aeneas and the latter's mission to set in motion the rise of the Roman Empire. Other critics have highlighted echoes between the episode of the Golden Bough and the morally charged deaths of two of Aeneas's antagonists, Dido and Turnus.In the fourth or fifth century CE, the commentator Servius connected the bough to rex Nemorensis, a priest of the goddess Diana at Lake Nemi whose office was passed on by the killing of its holder. This equation influenced the anthropologist James George Frazer, who used the bough for the title of his 1890 work on comparative religion. The bough is recalled in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy and was the subject of an 1834 painting by J. M. W. Turner, which was used as the frontispiece for the early editions of Frazer's book. It was an influential motif in the "Byzantium" poems of W. B. Yeats and in the poetry of Seamus Heaney, who made several translations of Virgil's account of the episode. Scholars have also drawn parallels between the Golden Bough and significant objects in the novels of J. R. R. Tolkien.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:53 UTC on Tuesday, 12 May 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Golden Bough (Aeneid) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Emma.

O Altay e eu temos duas mensagens pra você. A primeira é: muito, muito obrigado pela sua audiência. Sem ela, o Naruhodo sequer teria sentido de existir. Você nos ajuda demais não só quando ouve, mas também quando espalha episódios para familiares, amigos - e, por que não?, inimigos. A segunda mensagem é: existe uma outra forma de apoiar o Naruhodo, a ciência e o pensamento científico - apoiando financeiramente o nosso projeto de podcast semanal independente, que só descansa no recesso do fim de ano. Manter o Naruhodo tem custos e despesas: servidores, domínio, pesquisa, produção, edição, atendimento, tempo... Enfim, muitas coisas para cobrir - e, algumas delas, em dólar. A gente sabe que nem todo mundo pode apoiar financeiramente. E tá tudo bem. Tente mandar um episódio para alguém que você conhece e acha que vai gostar. A gente sabe que alguns podem, mas não mensalmente. E tá tudo bem também. Você pode apoiar quando puder e cancelar quando quiser. O apoio mínimo é de 15 reais e pode ser feito pela plataforma ORELO ou pela plataforma APOIA-SE. Para quem está fora do Brasil, temos até a plataforma PATREON. É isso, gente. Estamos enfrentando um momento importante e você pode ajudar a combater o negacionismo e manter a chama da ciência acesa. Então, fica aqui o nosso convite: apóie o Naruhodo como puder. bit.ly/naruhodo-no-orelo
