As regular listeners will know, I spent seven years living in the greater Puget Sound area and despite having lived in eight different states, it's one of two places that will always be home to me. There's something about small Washington State towns that can feel delightfully out of time and there's no greater contrast to them than the technology centric hub that is Seattle crowned by its futuristic Space Needle. It elicits a range of complex emotions as a former local that the visitor will never understand primary among them is a clash between modern advancement and the struggle of smaller coastal communities to hold onto their ways of life and cultural identities. This was my personal filter going into reading The Stoneshore Register, a delightful new graphic novel from Dark Horse Comics and I have the perfect person to hang out to tell us all about it, first time guest G. Willow Wilson. Yes, I do go off on a bit of a tangent about gardening but we'll call that a Poison Ivy interlude, and we wrap things up covering what we can expect to see in Marvel's new ongoing Black Cat series.

The Superhero Show Show #595STAS: Hydro-Man ReturnsThe Superhero Show Show: Hydro-Man's Return Shakes Up Spider-Man's WorldOn this week's Superhero Show Show, the hosts dive into the soggy chaos of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, season 5, episode 7, The Return of Hydro-Man, Part 1.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Creativity - Episode 408  - Rent a Black Cat!Hopefully this will be a really fun episode of Celebrate Creativity.  I want to illustrate what constitutes an effective prompt in the most entertaining way, - probably your prompt will be for business, literary, and other educational purposes - but here I am using the imaginary situation of Edgar Allan Poe applying to a company that rents pets. I never really asked the AI to answer using Poe's style - which I could have and probably should have - but it went ahead and answered as Poe might have.  And note how the AI picked up on the use of Poe's language and easily participated in the online role - I would like to thank technology educator Dave Birsss for the idea of writing to apply for a job with an imaginary pet store, although I don't know if he was thinking about Edgar Allan Poe!My prompt was:Starting with episode 400 of my podcast about Edgar Allan Poe and other 19th century writers, I am broadening the emphasis of my podcast to include such areas as creativity and AI. Of course one of the things that I want to try and get across is what AI can do through an effective prompt. Would you imagine that you are Edgar Allan Poe and have come to the realization that you need a new job? You are applying to a company that rents black cats. Would you write a letter to the company of why you would be a good person for that position in their company? Note that I am explaining my situation -Unfortunately, I did explain the STYLE that I want Mr. Poe to answer the letter, but the AI seemed to automatically know to answer as Poe might have using his style by literally comparing the thousands of examples of Poe's writings that it has access to, and answers using those examples - a task that would be humanly impossible. In a real world situation, it would be preferable for you to come out and explain the style that you want Mr. Poe - or whoever you are communicating with - to use.   But note that without really prompting, the AI picks up on the style of Poe and replies to each situation cleverly and appropriately - without missing a beat. It would take me forever to even approach such a task - and I have read a lot of Poe.  But back to AI Poe's answer - Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Seeing it in action, anybody would quaver in alarm: What hath Farnsworth overwrought? The Big Bounce by Walter S. Tevis. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Today's tale comes from an author whose name may not be as instantly recognizable as some, but whose work has left a lasting impact on both science fiction and American literature.Born in San Francisco in 1928, Walter Tevis spent much of his childhood in poor health, even spending a year in a convalescent home while his family moved to Kentucky without him. He was 11 when he took a train across the country by himself to reunite with his family. That early experience of isolation would later echo through many of his stories.While best known for his six novels — including the science fiction classic The Man Who Fell to Earth, The Hustler, and The Color of Money, all of which became major motion pictures and The Queen's Gambit which was adapted in a Netflix miniseries, he also penned over a dozen short stories.From the pages of Galaxy Science Fiction Magazine in February 1958, turn to page 37, The Big Bounce by Walter S.

Quebec City is a place where a lot of incredible beer has been brewed, but it doesn't always get the shine it deserves - so we're trying to change that. Jean-Michaël of Quebec City's Noctem Artisans Brasseurs joins Cee on the pod to chat about the famous cats on their labels, how their flagship IPA Catnip came about, where the name came from, their business plan from a brewpub to a production facility, how they grew from contracting and why they kept cats on their labels, why he travels to Ontario and beyond for beer festivals and events, how the BAOS Podcast 10th anniversary collaboration came about, and the pricing of beer in Quebec and Ontario. They got into a wicked lineup of Noctem beers - Catnip IPA, Moggie Double IPA with BAOS Podcast, Calaca Yuzu Gose, Hops FWD Triple IPA, Crazy Cat Lager Pilsner, and Double Fractale Double NEIPA.

Send us a textIn this episode of Horrific Podcast, we sit down with Francesca Maria and Mark Causey, the creative duo behind the brand-new horror anthology Black Cat Tales—a chilling collection of short stories, all centered around the mysterious and macabre world of black cats.

Weaver most recently directed the feature film Miss Valentine (Paris Berelc). Previously he directed Cupid For Christmas (starring Richard Kind) which premiered on HULU, the horror film Getaway, and the Christmas romantic comedy Santa Girl (starring Barry Bostwick and Jennifer Stone). He wrote, directed, and starred in the award-winning thriller Cut To the Chase (with Lance Henriksen) and the acclaimed romantic comedy 6 Month Rule (alongside Martin Starr, Natalie Morales and John Michael Higgins). Previous films he's written and directed include Weather Girl (with Mark Harmon, Jon Cryer and Jane Lynch) and Outside Sales. He also co-wrote and acted in Manic (Don Cheadle, Joseph Gordon- Levitt and Zooey Deschanel) which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.He has appeared in films such as Favor, Where We're Meant To Be, Junk, Deep Dark Canyon, Official Rejection, and The Good Old Boys opposite Tommy Lee Jones. His numerous episodic television credits include Wolf Pack, E.R., JAG, and The Middleman. He provided the voice of Peter Pan in the Disney animated feature Return To Never Land and still does the voice for Disney today.A native of Louisiana, Weaver studied in New York City, Oxford University, and graduated from UCLA with a degree in English Literature and a minor in Political Science. He lives in Los Angeles where he works as a Director, Producer, Screenwriter, Actor, and Distributor through his company Secret Identity Pictures.Spider-Man: Brand New Day is getting tantalizingly close to production ahead of its planned release date of July 31, 2026. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton will helm the upcoming sequel, replacing Jon Watts, who worked on all three of the previous Spider-Man films. Brand New Day is set to kick off Tom Holland's second trilogy of Marvel Cinematic Universe films, opening a new chapter for his iteration of Peter Parker after the landmark events of No Way Home.Though Holland's fourth Spider-Man film is still early in its development, rumors are already spreading about what audiences should expect and who may appear therein. The latest reports for Spider-Man: Brand New Day suggest that the film will feature a packed cast, including at least three major villains from the comics. While fans may shudder at the idea of Brand New Day being an overstuffed mess like The Amazing Spider-Man 2 or Spider-Man 3, I think there is a common denominator between these characters that hints at the upcoming film's intriguing story.Anyone who has been paying attention to the recent rumors and reports about Spider-Man: Brand New Day knows that the film is expected to include an overabundance of Spider-Man villains. While there has been no official confirmation of which antagonists will appear in the movie, various insiders have reported that characters like Scorpion, Tombstone, Mister Negative, Black Cat, and Tarantula could all show up to battle Spider-Man in his next cinematic outing. For many Spider-Man fans, these rumors could evoke bad memories of past franchises.Both the Sam Raimi Trilogy and Marc Webb's Amazing Spider-Man made a similar mistake in their final films, including far too many characters (particularly villains) for a movie. Spider-Man 3 featured a trio of villains, including Venom, New Goblin, and Sandman.Masters of the Universe Gets RebootedAlong with Galitzine as He-Man, the movie also stars Camila Mendes as Teela, Jared Leto as Skeletor, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, Sam C. Wilson as Trap Jaw, Morena Baccarin as the Sorceress, James Purefoy as King Randor, Charlotte Riley as Queen Marlena Glenn, and Sasheer Zamata as Suzie. Travis Knight is directing with a screenplay by Chris Butler.Return to Arlen With the King of the Hill RevivalThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."The synopsis of the reboot has shared more details about what's been happening with the Hill family since fans last saw them in the original show. Surprisingly, Hank had taken up a job in Saudia Arabia, taking him away from Arlen for many years before his eventual return to his old home. Meanwhile, Bobby is now working as a professional chef, a nod to how the original show explored the character's passion and talent for cooking.How to train dragonThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."As studios continued to bank on remakes, reboots, and revivals, the decision to turn beloved animations into live-action has proven mostly profitable. How to Train Your Dragon marks the latest example, just weeks after Disney's Lilo & Stitch hit. Per Deadline, How to Train Your Dragon is off to a great start, debuting with an $83.7 million opening week, the highest in the franchise so far.The How to Train Your Dragon animated trilogy was a big commercial hit. Overall, it grossed $1.63 billion worldwide at the box office against a joint budget of $439 million (via

While comic books have traditionally been defined by heroes that reflect the extremes of masculinity and femininity, and aimed at a primary straight-male audience, a notable shift has happened over the past 20 or so years. Where queer characters were once merely hinted at, or when included portrayed as grotesque stereotypes, since at least the 2000s comics have become increasingly more inclusive. Now it's common for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, asexual and other gender nonconforming characters to be featured in even the biggest comic-book franchises, and to even helm their own solo books. So join us for our 2025 Pride Month Special as the Great Pop Culture Debate attempts to name the Best LGBTQIA+ Super Hero. Characters discussed: Batwoman, Black Cat, Midnighter, Wiccan, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern (Alan Scott), Miss America (America Chavez), Northstar, John Constantine, Apollo, Deadpool, Mystique, Iceman, Dreamer, Superman (Jon Kent). Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelists Bob Erlenback and Brendan Hay, and special guest Steve Orlando, prolific comic-book writer for Marvel, DC Comics, and other publishers, as they discuss 16 of the most-popular out super-heroes in comics.

In this RSA Conference 2025 special episode, we explore two critical frontiers shaping the future of cybersecurity. First, Jon DiMaggio (Author of The Ransomware Diaries, Analyst1) breaks down the hidden supply chains behind ransomware gangs, including the economics of affiliate betrayal and the challenge of accurate attribution. He walks us through his methodology for identifying ransomware rebrands like BlackCat and RansomHub using evidence-based frameworks designed to eliminate human bias. Then we're joined by Matt Radolec (VP of Incident Response at Varonis), who brings a fresh perspective on talent development in cybersecurity. Drawing from his keynote "From Gamer to Leader", Matt argues that gamers possess untapped potential as cybersecurity professionals and it's time to design leadership pipelines like quest lines. From ransomware negotiations on underground forums to using AI-enhanced playbooks and transforming threat response teams into RPG-style guilds, this episode blends technical insight with cultural reflection.

Today on the 5: For our movie review this week, Lando and I watched Black Cat 2, the 1992 sequel to Black Cat. You'll find sharply divided opinions on whether the first movie or the sequel is superior, but in my view it all comes down to what kind of movie you're in the mood for.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - This is episode 379 - Supernatural ElementsWell How are you, Mr. Poe - and waiting to begin our conversationVery tolerable, Mr. Bartley -and most eager to share our thoughts.Mr Poe - It seems that you often employ eerie and decaying settings to create an atmosphere of dread and suspense.  For example, in The Fall of the House of Usher, the crumbling mansion mirrors the psychological decay of its inhabitants. The house itself becomes a character, embodying themes of isolation and impending doom.  Your settings often include elements like dungeons, vaults, and desolate landscapes, which are staples of Gothic literature.Ah, yes, Mr. Bartley - I attempted to delve deeply into the human psyche, focusing on madness, guilt, and obsession. Stories such as The Tell-Tale Heart and The Black Cat feature unreliable narrators whose deteriorating mental states drive the narrative. These characters' inner turmoil aligns with Gothic themes of psychological horror and moral ambiguity.  And I would like to think that my use of first-person narration intensifies the sense of unease by immersing readers in the disturbed thoughts of my protagonists.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Many podcasts and YouTube channels today are taking advantage of the date on the calendar and playing practical jokes on their subscribers in celebration of All Fools Day. I admit, I was tempted to begin a story and then Rick-Roll you, but instead I thought it might be fun to bring some dark stories into today's podcast that have a funny or amusing twist to them. Still creepy, but comical as well. I don't believe any of these stories are true – but that doesn't mean they're not entertaining.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Disclaimer and Show Open (Coming Up In This Episode)00:01:38.877 = Bear Lake Monster00:03:42.608 = Ghost On The Tracks00:05:59.866 = I'm Coming Down Now00:09:57.975 = Never Mind Them Watermelons00:12:43.486 = Piece By Piece00:15:16.746 = That Pesky Fellow00:19:08.842 = The Black Cat's Message00:25:56.201 = The Skeleton00:29:30.630 = Tommy Knockers00:33:22.117 = Wait Until Emmet Comes00:36:13.344 = You Can't Get Out00:37:45.330 = Turnabout Is Fair Play00:41:47.803 = Show Close, Verse, and Final ThoughtSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…All stories in this episode were gathered and rewritten by S.
