Hier sind sie wieder die neusten Neustarts, die diese Woche je gesehen hat. Daniel Schröckert talkt mit Johanna Baumann und Beatrice Osuji über die aktuellen Filme. Allen voran schwingen sich die Hexen wieder auf ihre Besen, in der Fortsetzung des Musicalfilmerfolgs WICKED 2! Dazu sprechen wir aber nur kurz, denn der Talk am Samstag befasst sich damit ausführlich. Auch bei SISU: ROAD TO REVENGE ist es ähnlich, denn da haben wir ja bereits unser Review hochgeladen. Ausführlich wird aber über den neuen Ari Aster Film EDDINGTON geredet. Pedro Pascal und Joaquin Phoenix im amerikanischen Kleinstadt Krieg, zu Zeiten von Corona, kann leider nicht komplett überzeugen. Auch bei JAY KELLY mit George Clooney und Adam Sandler und dem neuen Osgood Perkins Film KEEPER gibt es etwas zu besprechen. Daneben haben wir wie immer, noch ein paar Tipps aus den Streaming Diensten und Mediatheken im Gepäck: AFTER THE HUNT hat schon seinen Weg zu Prime gefunden, genau wie DER GRAF VON MONTE CHRISTO. DIE HAND AN DER WIEGE und TRAIN DREAMS empfiehlt Daniel, genauso wie Schlogger ihren Geheimtipp MARTIN LIEST DEN KORAN. Weitere Tips sind auch BLACK EAGLE nicht zu verwechseln mit BLACK WATER die beide bei Tele5 starten. Am Ende gibt's noch was zu NIGHTSIREN und LITTLE BIG MAN in der ARD Mediathek. Viel Spaß!

This week, radio & television legend and Country Music Hall of Fame member Grandpa Jones with his wife, Grand Old Opry star Ramona and family recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews and a live performance from the Jones Family. Aubrey Atwater presents “The Mother of Folk Music” Jean Ritchie, and Mark Jones offers an archival recording of Ozark original, Jim Bullard. Grandpa Jones was a performer during the golden age of radio, and later found success as a cast member on the syndicated television program, “Hee Haw.”  After years of living near Nashville, TN, Grandpa moved to Mountain View, Arkansas in the early 1980's. Along with his wife Ramona, they ran the Grandpa Jones Dinner Theater. The theater employed many musicians, many of whom are still around the Ozarks today including their son Mark and guitarist Danny Dozier. We'll dig deep into the archives this week for a set of music, featuring some of Grandpa's finest performances at Ozark Folk Center State Park. “The Jones Family Band” features a cast of all-star musicians, including Alisa and Mark Jones. This performance from the Jones Family Band was the last one recorded at the Ozark Folk Center State Park before Ramona passed in late 2015. Renowned folk musician Aubrey Atwater profiles influential folk music icons Jean Ritchie and the Ritchie Family, as well as explores the traditional Appalachian music and dance that the Ritchie Family helped to perpetuate into the modern American folk lexicon. This episode focuses on Jean Ritchie as a songwriter, and features Jean's performance of her original song “Black Water.” Mark Jones' “From the Vault” segment features a rare recording of Ozark original Jim Bullard, performing the traditional song “Glory Land,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives.

Pe 13 noiembrie, în Control Club, ORKID marchează o dublă lansare: noul single „Urlă ca marea” și relansarea platformei independente de muzică alternativă Stray Lights 2.0, printr-un concert special alături de Rotko. Evenimentul va continua bilunar aducând pe scena Control un nou val de trupe indie și alternative din România. Vorbim cu Vlad Ilicevici, membru al trupei Orkid și inițiator al proiectului Stray Lights + Victor Dădăciu de la Cardinal, parte din proiectul Stray Lights. Stray Lights este o comunitate care reunește unele dintre cele mai relevante formații românești de muzică alternativă, printre care Cardinal, Orkid, D.E.N.I.S, Kadjavsi, Zammorian, Second Wave, Baby Elvis, Gunshee, PLANT, Valerinne, Methadone Skies, Faunlet, Getchoo, Brainwasher, Coridor Apartament, Astro Générale, Taxawall, Asincron, Mock Surprise, Midpoint, Air Lines, Black Water, Jahmolxes, Church of Cthulhu, Bluebell Creeper și Rotko. Platforma funcționează ca o rețea informală de sprijin și colaborare, care își propune să ofere vizibilitate, context și solidaritate trupelor independente, într-un peisaj muzical aflat mereu în tranziție.  „Stray Lights 2.0 este o necesitate. O formă de coagulare, colaborare și într-ajutorare între cât mai multe dintre trupele care fac muzică alternativă, neanacronică și relevantă din România. Majoritatea acestor trupe sunt ignorate și multe dispar după un an sau doi. Nu există un plan real de susținere și evoluție pentru această formă de manifestare creativă atât de necesară. Stray Lights nu e o agenție de booking, un label sau o casă de producție — e un mic grup de oameni care încearcă să se ajute între ei, fiecare cum poate. Și, dincolo de asta, e o bucurie să fim împreună, să povestim, să bem o bere și, din când în când, să mai punem o cântare.” - Vlad Ilicevici, membru Orkid și inițiator al Stray Lights. ORKID, trioul din București format din Vlad Ilicevici (chitare, synthuri, voce), Radu Pop (percuție, synthuri) și Mihnea Dumitrescu (bass), își definește stilul ca angry shoegaze/post-traumatic blues, un amestec intens de emoție și distorsiune. Cu influențe de la punk și garage la post-metal, indie și blues, Orkid a lansat până acum cinci albume de studio: Standing Still in the Dark (2016), Suruaika (2018), Deraiat (2020), In the Light We Are Safe (2022) și Noi contra Noi (2023), ultimele trei produse de Adrian Despot și Sorin „Pupe” Tănase.  Noul single, „Urlă ca marea”, marchează reluarea colaborării cu Andrei Robin Proca (Robin and the Backstabbers), producătorul primului lor album. Piesa aduce un sound nou, minimalist și contondent, care surprinde tensiunea unei emoții reprimate, izbucnind cu forța unei furtuni – brută, intensă, devastatoare, iar videoclipul are ca punct de pornire un live drawing al artistului vizual Pisica Pătrată.  Concertul de pe 13 noiembrie îl are ca invitat pe Victor Dădaciu basist și solist al trupei Cardinal. Din Cluj-Napoca vine ROTKO, un proiect de art-rock, alternativ și electronică fondat în 2025, care combină synthuri modulare, drum machine-uri și chitară cu distors pentru a crea o atmosferă melancolică și introspectivă. ROTKO aduce în scena locală o estetică modernă și un sound cinematic, aflat la granița dintre real și vis.

Philip Murphy, Catchment Coordinator for the River Blackwater, joins Stuart Childs on this week's Dairy Edge to discuss applying water quality and addressing it. Philip explains that his role focuses on addressing agricultural pressures on water quality across the wider Blackwater catchment, beyond the already targeted high-priority areas, through providing clear, consistent advice to farmers and advisors, helping to raise awareness where one-to-one guidance is not currently available. He outlines how targeted areas are selected using EPA monitoring data and highlights the difference between nitrogen and phosphorus impacts, noting phosphorus affects rivers while nitrogen impacts in the estuaries. Finally, Philip emphasises that improvements take time, often years, but farmers are already doing positive work. His key message is for farmers to engage with advisors, consider schemes like Farming for Water, and continue adopting practical, farm-specific measures to protect local water quality. For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

Prepare-se para afundar nas águas turvas de Perdido, Alabama. No episódio de hoje, começamos nossa jornada pela épica saga Blackwater, com seu primeiro volume: "A Enchente".Junte-se a nós enquanto exploramos este clássico do terror e descubra por que esta história de família, poder e segredos obscuros conquistou o mundo.Tudo começa em 1919. Uma enchente catastrófica devasta a pequena cidade de Perdido, alterando a paisagem e a vida de seus habitantes para sempre. No centro de tudo está o rico clã Caskey, dono da serraria local.Em meio ao caos das águas que sobem, o herdeiro Oscar Caskey resgata uma mulher misteriosa: a bela Elinor Dammert, encontrada ilhada e impassível em um quarto de hotel. Mas quem é Elinor? De onde ela veio?Sua chegada é o estopim de uma série de eventos que irão redefinir as dinâmicas de poder na família, especialmente contra a poderosa matriarca Mary-Love. "A Enchente" é o ponto de partida magistral para uma saga que mistura drama familiar com um terror sobrenatural que se infiltra lentamente, como a umidade nas paredes.Conhecido como o "mestre do terror em paperback", Michael McDowell foi um romancista e roteirista americano prolífico. Se o nome dele não soa familiar, suas obras certamente o são: McDowell é a mente por trás dos roteiros de clássicos do cinema como "Beetlejuice" (Os Fantasmas se Divertem) e foi o responsável pela adaptação da história de "O Estranho Mundo de Jack".Ele era um mestre em criar narrativas envolventes e personagens inesquecíveis, e a saga Blackwater é considerada por muitos a sua obra-prima."A Enchente" não é apenas terror; é um exemplar perfeito do Gótico Sulista. Mas o que isso significa?Cenário: O gênero se passa quase exclusivamente no sul dos Estados Unidos.Atmosfera: Esqueça os castelos europeus. O "gótico" aqui está na decadência das grandes mansões, na atmosfera opressiva das pequenas cidades e nos pântanos sombrios.Personagens: Foca em personagens "grotescos" (no sentido literário), excêntricos, profundamente falhos e, muitas vezes, moralmente ambíguos.Temas: Explora segredos de família sombrios, tensões sociais, fanatismo religioso, hipocrisia e o peso de um passado que se recusa a morrer.Em Blackwater, o horror não vem (apenas) do sobrenatural, mas das dinâmicas tóxicas de poder dentro da própria família Caskey.Dê o play e mergulhe conosco no mundo fascinante e aterrorizante de Blackwater. Mas cuidado para não se afogar nos segredos de Perdido.Edição: Lívia LeãoEmail: lihnumlivro@hotmail.comInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@liviamulder⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@lihnumlivro

In his final moments before court, Jordan Goudreau reflects on his failed Venezuela mission, claims of CIA betrayal, and the personal fallout that left him in a homeless shelter. He takes full responsibility for his choices but insists he was following orders from the highest level. Goudreau says, despite everything, he'd do it again to “free the oppressed.”

31 marca 2004 roku. Na ulicach irackiego miasta Faludża dwa samochody należące do agencji Blackwater wpadają w zasadzkę irackich rebeliantów. W ostrzale ginie czterech pracowników firmy ochroniarskiej. Zdjęcia ich zwłok docierają do Stanów Zjednoczonych i Waszyngton podejmuje decyzję o wysłaniu do Faludży wojsk, które mają przejąć kontrolę nad miastem. W założeniu ma to być błyskawiczna operacja. Bitwa jednak potrwa kilka miesięcy i stanie się obiektem wielu kontrowersji. Obie strony poniosą spore straty a żołnierze amerykańscy zostaną oskarżani o użycie w walce broni masowego rażenia i popełnienie zbrodni wojennych. Dlaczego jednak walki o Faludżę okazały się tak krwawe? I czy odziały amerykańskie rzeczywiście wykorzystały do walki broń chemiczną? O tym opowiadamy w tym odcinku Misji specjalnej.

Recorded on the 2025 Scotland Photowalk Retreat, this episode takes you to the Highlands' finest locations, including Black Water, Glen Affric and the wide, quiet sweep of Loch Maree. You're invited to become the eleventh member of our retreat, as you join us to walk, eat, and share stories together. Hear how we embraced the use of film cameras to work together in the Inverness Darkroom, watching our images bloom in the darkroom trays, and explored how words can shape our pictures with writer Merryn Glover. It's part travel diary, part creative gathering; a record of what happens when you put a small group of photographers, writers and wanderers together in the Highlands, and let Scotland do the rest. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

No matter the fishing and conditions, the 2025 season will go down in memory as the year of the worst ever fish kill in the history of the State, which is certainly saying something based on this country's approach to pollution, water quality and environmental protection. We've discussed fish kills on this show before, highlighting the fact that when guilty verdicts and fines are handed down, the consequences are risible anyway. But for this week's episode we wanted to focus on the questionable practice in the Blackwater investigation and why the current legislation is not fit for purpose. Conor Arnold of the Upper Bridgetown Salmon Fishery on the Blackwater has been to the forefront during this crisis, spending untold hours highlighting the issue and trying to get to the bottom of it as best as he can. Conor also spoke as an invited witness at last week's Oireachtas Committee hearing into the Blackwater fish kill and a day later he spoke to us about the hearing to tell us what arose from it. Keep up to date with all the latest Ireland on the Fly on https://www.IrelandontheFly.com and get regular updates on https://Instagram.com/IrelandontheFly

D'après un sondage Ifop Fiducial pour Sud Radio et L'Opinion publié, lundi 29 septembre, les potentiels candidats du camp présidentiel sont en train de gagner en popularité, particulièrement avec l'émergence de Raphaël Glucksmann. Ruth Elkrief pense que Jean-Luc Mélenchon n'est pas hors-jeu. Jean Castex, l'ancien Premier ministre et actuel PDG de la RATP, prendra le relais de Jean-Pierre Farandou à la direction du Groupe SNCF. Pascal Perri leur dit merci et donne du courage au nouveau directeur. Pour lui, il y a des présidents qu'il faut féliciter. Les soldats privés sont de retour, plus précisément, Erik Prince, le fondateur et ex-directeur de la célèbre et controversée armée privée Blackwater. Pour Abnousse Shalmani, Donald Trump est de retour et donc Erik Prince est aussi de retour, par la même occasion.

Send us a textOnes Ready sits down with Morgan Lerette —author of Guns, Girls, and Greed—to talk about life as a Blackwater mercenary during the chaos of Iraq and Afghanistan. From getting recruited as a broke Air Guard kid, to standing on flight lines wondering if forklifts win Bronze Stars, to suddenly pulling convoys through Route Irish with Navy SEALs and Rangers, Morgan lays it all out: the absurd, the grim, and the downright sketchy. We dive into the wild days of unarmored Peugeots with body armor for window panels, hooker stories from Jordan, and the not-so-fun reality of PMCs running missions with zero backup. And just when you're laughing at zebra-striped POW underwear, Morgan drops the hammer on the modern PMC industry moving kids across the border. Buckle up—this one goes from hilarious to horrifying in record time.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa. From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today's brief delivers the facts shaping America's future. Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting: A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, “I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick.” The school's priest begged, “I ask you to — please — pray,” while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, “Prayer is not freaking enough.” Bryan calls Psaki's remarks “a demand of the evil and wicked” and links the shooter's instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental “gender affirming care.” Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges: Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are “nihilistic” and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: “You rip this stuff and these people out by the root.” Foreign Spies Captured Bolton's Emails: The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump's DOJ “fascist,” but Bryan insists, “Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago.” Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized: Satellite images confirm Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was “a good clean-out of the Deep State.” American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland: The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, “These guys are more like Erik Prince's Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective.” China Moves to Corner Vietnam's Tungsten Supply: Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam's tungsten mines through front companies.

Throwing Feathers in the Wind is a new book out by Richard Gorodecky, a fly angler who moved full time to Ireland five years ago to be closer to the river fishing that he loves so much. Richard was a long-time visitor to these shores fishing all over the country before settling in south Munster but his obsession with fly fishing has also seen him fish all over the world. Throwing Feathers in the Wind is his first collection of essays detailing his fishing in Ireland and further afield, and is, like so many good fishing books, more about the why than anything else.To find out more and to buy a copy of Richard's book, go to:Gorodecky.com Plus, Tom and Daire also discuss the dire fish kill on the Blackwater and ask when will it be the tipping point to stop further fish kills?Keep up to date with all the latest Ireland on the Fly on https://www.IrelandontheFly.com and get regular updates on https://Instagram.com/IrelandontheFly.

Hello one and all, and welcome back to another episode of Surviving the Horror! This month Josh and Colin got the chance to sit down and play a horror franchise that has somehow eluded them for years at this point, that being Fatal Frame. Fatal Frame is a franchise that you hear about in the same breaths as things like Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and other staples of the genre. Taking place firmly in the realm of Japan , and touching regularly on things like Japanese folklore and rituals, Fatal Frame aims to try something different in survival horror. The problem is that many of these titles (Fatal Frame 1-3 specifically) are locked on older hardware and not accessible on modern day consoles. As a result, Josh and Colin decided to make their first foray into the franchise with Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse. Originally released exclusively in Japan for the Wii in 2008, Mask of the Lunar Eclipse finally received its remaster and port to the West in 2023, selling 120,000 copies in just a few short weeks on the market. While that may not sound like much, when you consider that the franchise as a whole across all five games only has 1.3 million units sold, the success of recent games like Mask of the Lunar Eclipse and Maiden of Blackwater becomes more apparent. Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is also the only game in the franchise to stand alone in its story elements, making it a great jumping in point for newcomers to the series like us. Mask of the Lunar Eclipse tells the tale of (primarily) three characters in Misaki, Ruka, and Choshiro as they explore the Haibara Infirmary on Rougetsu Isle. Rougetsu Isle is known for its ancient tradition of performing the Rougetsu Kagura, a ritual in which the liminal space between the the souls of the living and dead is opened in conjunction with the phases of the moon. Several years ago, this ritual goes wrong (who could have guessed) and The Day of Tranquility ensues; resulting in the loss of several lives, and the loss of our main characters' memories. It's our job then as Misaki, Ruka, and Choshiro to return to Rougetsu Isle and try to unravel the mystery of what happened, restore our memories, and ultimately free the souls of those trapped between the realm of the living and the dead. Thank you for listening, and we hope you enjoy! Next month's episode will be on a smaller 2D pixelated horror game called Dead of Darkness. Thanks again!

The early days of the Global War on Terror, the U.S. Government was heavily dependent on Private Military companies. The Defense Department leaned on them for support, the State Department relied on them for protection, and the Justice Department attacked them for easy virtue signaling. Today we talk to Nick Slatten, a member of the Blackwater Tactical Support Team Raven 23. He moved from the 82nd Airborne unit to contracting work just in time for the 2007 troop surge, and just in time to become the central scapegoat of political prosecution designed to appease international journalists. It took three trials before the Obama administration finally convicted him, and he spent six years in prison before Trump finally pardoned him, but he is telling his story now in hopes of raising awareness about others who have been prosecuted and punished for political expediency. https://www.amazon.com/Raven-23-Department-Betrayed-American/dp/0063370603

Over the past few months, classified document releases related to Russiagate, the deep state, and other scandals have shown us just how frightening the government can be. But as Gina Keating has proven, it is NOT invincible. Gina — an investigative journalist and lifelong liberal — was forced to question everything she knew when she discovered that the DOJ under Obama, at the urging of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, was wrongfully prosecuting four Blackwater contractors for allegedly staging a massacre at Nisour Square in Baghdad, Iraq. Gina joins Glenn Beck to tell the story of these men, as documented in her new book, “Raven 23: How the Department of Justice Betrayed American Heroes.” She and Glenn discuss why the government really prosecuted these men, how Wikileaks helped expose the truth, and how Pete Hegseth helped convince President Trump to pardon them. But perhaps just as concerning was the media's response to this story. Gina describes how her fellow journalists wouldn't touch the case on “moral” grounds and provides solutions to help get partisan politics out of journalism.   Sponsors: Relief Factor Tired of pain controlling your life?

Morgan Lerette didn't grow up dreaming about being a private military contractor. Like a lot of veterans, one thing led to another. He got pulled into Blackwater during the height of the Iraq War, rolling through Baghdad with no real rules of engagement, no clear mission beyond keeping people alive, and making more money than he ever thought possible. In this episode, Morgan talks openly about what contracting was really like. Driving armored SUVs through war zones, making split-second decisions, and dealing with the consequences afterward. He explains how contractors operated alongside the military, why so many signed up, and how the people of Iraq saw it all from their side. We also get into what happened after he left that world. Morgan shares what helped him figure out the next steps after war and contracting, how he finally built a steady life, and what advice he has for vets who are trying to do the same. This is the kind of honest conversation you only get from someone who's actually been there.

Today I'm speaking with Erik Prince — former Navy SEAL, founder of Blackwater, and now creator of the Unplugged phone — about the chaos in the Middle East, the rise of private military forces, and what's really driving conflict between Iran, Israel, and the West. We dig into the role of proxy wars, failed regime change, and the deeper forces behind U.S. foreign policy. But it's not just about war — we explore how technology is shaping the future of governance, the danger of surveillance capitalism, and why Erik believes decentralization, competition, and faith are key to reclaiming freedom in a collapsing empire.   Go to http://rumble.com/premium/brand and use code BRAND to save $10 on your annual subscription http://www.1775coffee.com/BRAND to save 15% off your order of 1775 Coffee.
