Send us a textTyrion and company are all but sunk by a fearsome storm after being becalmed for weeks. Be careful what you wish for. They're rescued by, what even the nose-less can tell is a slave-ship. Mackelly and Simon move things from the frying pan into the fire.Chapter Review:Tyrion Lannister, Penny, and Jorah Mormont are still aboard the Selaesori Qhoran AKA “the Stinky Steward.” It's been becalmed for nearly two weeks and the sailors are beginning to question if Tyrion and Penny are actually lucky. They are also eyeing Pretty Pig with hungry looks. To distract and amuse them, Tyrion agrees to joust with Penny. He's kind of hopeless, but she points out that that is rather the point. Afterward, he goads Mormont about his plans for Tyrion and Daenerys until the knight knocks Tyrion's tooth out. A pyrrhic victory right there.Finally a wind picks up, but it portends an almighty storm and Moqorro admits that the ship was never going to reach Qarth, not because it was going to redirect to Meereen, but because this storm was going to destroy it. The storm is immense and the ships is ruined. It comes through still afloat but with no mast, no Moqorro, flooded lower sections, and no hope of survival. But a ship is spotted headed their way. Unfortunately, as it nears Mormont is able to guess from the stench that it is a slave ship.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Tyrion Lannister - Youngest son of Tywin Lannister whom he murdered. Brother to queen Cersei and Jamie Lannister. Former Hand of the King.Ser Jorah Mormont - Twice-disgraced knight of the Seven Kingdoms. In love with Daenerys Targaryen.Benerro - High priest of R'hllor in Volantis.Moqorro - Priest of R'hllor.Penny - Dwarf who performed at Joffrey's wedding. Her brother Oppo was murdered. Selaesori Qhoran - Trading cog. The ugliest ship Tyrion has ever seen. Her name means “fragrant steward.”  Support the showSupport us: Buy us a Cup of Arbor Gold, or become a sustainer and receive cool perks Donate to our cause Use our exclusive URL for a free 30-day trial of Audible Buy or gift Marriott Bonvoy points through our affiliate link Rate and review us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, podchaser.com, and elsewhere.Find us on social media: Discord Twitter @GhostsHarrenhal Facebook Instagram YouTube All Music credits to Ross Bugden:INSTAGRAM! : https://instagram.com/rossbugden/ (rossbugden) TWITTER! : https://twitter.com/RossBugden (@rossbugden) YOUTUBE! : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kthxycmF25M

Episode 2718 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss unwinding the habits you've learned, missing the world around you, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/unwinding-the-habits-episode-2718 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast  Unwinding the Habits The days of Grunge. (2:00) Vinnie recently witnessed a common misconception at the gym. (8:00) One exercise, too many sets. Vinnie can get a full workout in within 35-45 minutes, and he's guided people to do the same. He shares a story from his gym about a woman doing multiple sets. Her real name is not Leona. The woman was doing more sets than necessary; she admitted that, despite his advice, she was still relying on information that had been told to her years before. Anna knows that it can take time for people to unwind the habits they have learned. It took Anna a while to adjust to the idea that eating higher levels of fat was beneficial. (16:00) Vinnie understands the origin of the idea of multiple sets, but it isn't always necessary. (17:30) Vinnie made a tuna dish for a quick, easy protein and used Anna's spices. (30:00) Vinnie has gotten back into rollerblading and shares a story. (40:00) He witnessed a woman who was also on the track, who was watching her phone the entire time during her 45-minute walk. (43:00) She had an opportunity to be outside and enjoy her environment; however, her head was cranked down, looking at her phone. The constant engagement with phones creates disconnection, and people are missing the world around them. (46:15) Battling Bad Information Bad fitness info is all around all the time. (53:00) Exercise is a poor way to lose a lot of weight. However, if you are eating correctly, the weight will come off more quickly. (55:00) Exercise is the fountain of youth—getting strong will help with metabolism and longevity. (57:00) You may feel tired at first, but as your body adjusts and your metabolism improves, you will gain more energy.

In this episode, Bryce Zabel and Chrissy Newton dive into Mirage Men, a provocative and unsettling exploration of how UFO mythology has been manipulated and, at times, manufactured by intelligence agencies. The discussion centers on the book's central thesis — that much of what we think we know about UFOs may have been deliberately seeded by government operatives to cover up classified projects or sow disinformation. Names like Richard Doty and Paul Bennewitz are examined as case studies in psychological operations, raising questions about just how much of the UFO lore is organic versus orchestrated. Weaponized Myth or Truth in Disguise? The episode unpacks the troubling implications for researchers and experiencers alike. The book suggests that belief in non-human intelligence may have been stoked as part of long-running counterintelligence campaigns, leaving a trail of confusion and paranoia in their wake. The conversation also explores how this manipulation might have impacted the broader UFO community — creating divisions, muddying waters, and casting long shadows over genuine phenomena. The hosts balance skepticism with open-mindedness, probing whether Mirage Men reveals deception, deeper truths, or perhaps both.  The Relevance for Today's Disclosure Landscape The episode closes by drawing sharp parallels between the events in Mirage Men and today's disclosure efforts. With recent whistleblower testimony and government acknowledgments, listeners are asked to consider: are we witnessing a long-delayed truth, or just the latest evolution of the same game of informational misdirection? The book, and this conversation, ultimately leave listeners with a haunting but essential question — who benefits from what we believe, and why? This episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to untangle the web of fact, fiction, and psychological warfare at the heart of the UFO narrative.

In this episode, I talk about a simple motto that changed the way I read: Read slowly, take notes, apply the ideas. Most of us rush through books hoping the next one will fix what the last one didn't. But real learning happens when we slow down and wrestle with one book at a time. I'll share how I use pauses between books to reflect, and why action—not speed—is what makes a reader grow.Send Me a Text Message with Your Questions

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter 8, narrated by Isaac BirchallSubscribe on YT or Join the Book Club on Patreon and support me as an independent creator :Dhttps://ko-fi.com/theessentialreadshttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOFfvo05ElM96CmfsGsu3g/joinSummary:At Sir John Middleton's, Mrs. Jennings, the mother of Lady Middleton, wishes to set the girls up with men. She determines that Colonel Brandon has fallen for Marianne, and says that the match would be good, as he is rich, and she is beautiful. Marianne thinks that this idea is a joke, and feels nothing for him, and just believes him to be an old man. Mrs. Dashwood jokes that Colonel Brandon is only 5 years younger than herself, and that does not make him an old man, but she does understand what he daughter is feeling about the Colonel. Following this conversation, Marianne talks to her mother about he fears that Edward Ferras must be ill as he hasn't visited them yet. And though Elinor hasn't mentioned the man, Marianne feels like her sister must miss him terribly. SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

They examined various aspects of the story, including its cinematic references, character motivations, and the decline of traditional movie theaters, while sharing personal memories of past theater experiences. The discussion concluded with an exploration of the story's themes of illusions and reality, monster encounters, and the challenges of adapting Barker's work into different media formats.    They then began analyzing Clive Barker's "Son of Celluloid," discussing its narrative structure divided into three acts and its themes of ambition and cancer as metaphors. The story follows Barbario, a fugitive criminal who hides in an old movie theater and watches a Fellini film while bleeding to death, unaware that his cancer is the result of his dangerous lifestyle. The group noted that while the story contains dated references to Marilyn Monroe and John Wayne, it effectively captures the nostalgia of old movie theaters and the magic of cinema.     The group discussed Clive Barker's story about a theater that became haunted after changing from a place of worship to a cinema, with José explaining how the building accumulated decades of audience emotions and became a "cathedral of collective dreams." They explored the character development of Birdie, the ticket lady who is bored and self-conscious about her weight, and how her intelligence becomes her strength when facing the antagonist. The conversation also touched on the decline of cinema attendance and the specific details of the Tron Ares movie, including Bruce Boxleitner's decision not to reprise his role as Tron.   Memories of Classic Movie Theaters The group discussed their memories of old movie theaters, including the smell of cigarettes and popcorn, torn seats, and pre-movie slides advertising local businesses. They shared their first movie theater experiences, with Ryan remembering "Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger" and Blair recalling "Star Wars" at a drive-in. José shared his fond memories of watching "E.T." as a child and mentioned the original darker treatment for the film. The conversation then shifted to Ricky's investigation of Lindy Lee's boyfriend in the bathroom, where he unexpectedly finds himself in a Western-themed setting. Monster's Failed Illusion Tactics The group discussed the story's themes of illusions manifesting in reality, particularly focusing on a scene where a monster creates a John Wayne illusion to threaten characters. They analyzed how the monster's aggressive approach failed when Ricky punched the illusion, leading to its dissolution. The discussion highlighted Ricky's character contrast with Birdie's correct choices, and noted that the monster would likely try a different tactic after this failed attempt at intimidation. Horror at the Movie Theater The group discussed a horror story involving a movie theater, where Birdie discovers a bloody scene and an unconscious man, while Lindy Lee disappears after seeing a bunny. Birdie attempts to call for help but is thwarted by a mysterious voice that locks the doors, forcing her to retrieve keys from Ricky. Despite her initial fear, Birdie wisely decides to seek help rather than stay trapped, and she eventually finds the body of a victim whose eyes have been violently removed. Marilyn Monster Seduction Analysis The group discussed a scene from a graphic novel where a monster in the form of Marilyn Monroe seduces Ricky, leading to his death. They analyzed the visual and narrative elements, including the use of flickering lights to create the illusion and the monster's need for attention. The conversation touched on themes of immortality through pop culture icons and Ricky's foolish decision to engage with the monster despite the danger. They also briefly mentioned Birdie's attempt to defend herself with a crowbar. Psychic Monster Comic Adaptation The group discussed the comic adaptation of a story involving a monster that feeds on psychic energy from moviegoers. They analyzed key plot points, including Birdie's armed defense against attackers, her escape attempt through a theater fire exit, and her confrontation with the monster. José highlighted the monster's transformation and its connection to the character Barbario, while Ryan and Blair noted the story's exploration of themes like ambition, waste, and the impact of movies on people's lives. The discus Adapting 'Son of Celluloid The group discussed Clive Barker's "Son of Celluloid," focusing on its themes of body horror, celebrity worship, and the dangers of spectatorship. They explored the challenges of adapting the story into a film, particularly regarding the use of real celebrities' likenesses. José shared insights from Barker's early attempts to pitch the story to studios and the eventual difficulties in securing funding. The conversation also touched on the graphic novel adaptation by Steve Niles and Les Edwards, highlighting its painted artwork and the availability of original pages for sale. The group agreed to explore the story further in their next episode, which will focus on "Rawhead Rex."

Send us a textToday we continue our coverage of the Wicked 5-book universe by Gregory Maguire with book two: Son of a Witch! We're diving into political fantasy like we never have before, just in time to watch Wicked for Good with all of you! Check out our kickoff  “Are Books Political" episode all about why books and reading are inherently political and why it's not only important to acknowledge this, but to read our favorite books through this lens. We concluded during our subsequent deep dive of Wicked (book one) that Maguire intentionally uses the fantastical to expertly critique issues like authoritarianism, colonialism, and racism, just to name a few.In this episode we dive into book two: Son of a Witch, released ten years after Wicked, which follows the life of Liir, protege and possible son of Elphaba as he grapples with what it means to be a soldier, a “man,” a human, and a possible rebel and military deserter. Who were our favorite and least favorite characters and plot points? Was this book what we expected?  Do we think these books can be separated from politics just because they're fantasy?  What philosophical questions are posed? And what literary devices does Maguire use to critique government structures like the military industrial complex, and the ensuing “isms?”Fantasy stories can be so much more than surface level storytelling, and often are. We're here to discover why!

The journal recounts a strange tale: In 1912, a mysterious Indigenous man, Good Stab of the Blackfeet tribe, walked into Arthur's church and revealed the harrowing and disturbing story of how he had been transformed into a vampire who sought revenge for the violence done unto his people.In this Halloween episode of the Book Review Book Club, the host MJ Franklin discusses “The Buffalo Hunter Hunter” with his colleagues Gilbert Cruz and Joumana Khatib. Other books and movies mentioned during this discussion:“Dracula,” by Bram Stoker“Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil,” by V.E.

RHLSTP Book Club #158 - Saltwash - Richard talks to award-winning author Andrew Michael Hurley about his latest book, Saltwash. Is it horror or literary fiction? is it important for people writing about dark subjects to have three names? What attracted Andrew to writing about dilapidated seaside resorts - and has he ever been to Weston-super-Mare? How does he make his novels so atmospheric? What's it like getting a quote from Stephen King? Plus Andrew's remarkable leap to success (after only ten years of work) and how a 300 book print run led to a hugely successful first novel, Richard reveals how little he knows about Gothic novels (or what they even are), how we are all haunted by the mistakes we've made in life and how the contemplation of our own mortality can drive so much of our lives. Does writing a creepy book mean you can't escape the subject in your downtime? Lots of questions, but thankfully some answers too!Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/saltwash-the-chilling-new-novel-from-the-master-of-menace-andrew-michael-hurley/7895486SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.

This month, we're joined once again by Amanda Cox, author of The Bitter End Birding Society. You might remember Amanda from Episode 95, and in this return conversation, she shares how visiting the real Bitter End, TN shaped her dual-timeline story, why her creative process doesn't fit neatly into outlines, and how she wove themes of connection and second chances throughout her work. Amanda, a therapist-turned-novelist from Tennessee, also gives us a peek into her upcoming 2026 release, Things We Cannot Keep, and the bird-inspired titles that make up her book flight.Episode Highlights:Inspiration behind The Bitter End Birding Society and its dual-timeline structureHow visiting the real Bitter End, TN changed the storyWriting without outlines and embracing creative flowWhy Amanda chose to feature a bird-watching groupThe themes of hope, healing, and belonging in her novelsSneak peek at her upcoming release, Things We Cannot Keep (Summer 2026)Amanda's bird-themed book flight selectionsConnect with Amanda Cox:InstagramFacebookWebsiteBooks and authors mentioned in the episode:Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson RawlsThe Atlas of Untold Stories by Sara BrunsvoldBook FlightThe Hudson Collection by Jocelyn GreenThe Nature of Small Birds by Susan FinkbeinerWhen Stone Wings Fly by Karen Barnett✨ Find Your Next Great Read!

Our Fall 2025 Book Club selection is dear to our hearts! In Real Moms of Real Saints, Colleen Pressprich gets real about every mom's need for a tribe: a community of other women whose bonds of trust run deeper than simple friendship. We need that tribe here on earth, but sometimes we forget about our heavenly tribe! We can draw on the loving motherly examples of women who were moms of saints (and saints-to-be) as diverse as Saint John Bosco, Saint Pio of Pietrelcina (Padre Pio), Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, and Blessed Stanley Rother, among others.

Nat Jansz joins Sam Leith to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Moomin novels. The first of these, Comet in Moominland, was revised by author Tove Jansson a decade after the original publication date. To celebrate the anniversary Sort of Books, co-run by Jansz, is publishing this revised edition for the first time in English.Jansz discusses why she finds the books so compelling, the influence of the war on author Jansson and why she feels Jansson's ‘quest for the truth' was written in a way that was easy for children to understand. For Jansz, the Moomin novels had a mix of light and dark which broke the mould of previous children's literature which was often prefaced with something traumatic. Plus – are there glimpses of the secret loves of the author hidden within the books?Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Back in 2018, when Stephen's book was released, they did a giveaway contest on Twitter. They would have Degrassi actors post videos asking Degrassi Trivia Questions. In total, five questions were asked and many Degrassi fans walked away with an e-book of "Whatever It Takes."I remember this contest so well because I waited to see if Annie Clark was going to release a video. When she did, I sprung into action to answer the trivia question and I won an e-copy of Whatever It Takes. I was able to read the book a few weeks before anyone else. It was SO cool.Thank you to Shay Jones for helping to make this bonus content come to life. ---This video was originally posted on the Degrassi Kid Patreon in July 2024.

After ending a 23-year marriage, Mary begins to explore her sensuality and confidence through the world of kink and BDSM. What started as curiosity became a journey of freedom, healing, and self-acceptance.Filmmaker Adam Sekuler spent six years capturing Mary's story with humor, tenderness, and courage.

Have you picked up Stephen Graham Jones's The Buffalo Hunter Hunter (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm) yet? We dig into this brilliant work in our October book club discussion. We start with a Bookish Check-In: Jen's reading Garth Stein's The Art of Racing in the Rain (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm), and Ashley just started V. E. Schwab's Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm).  Then we dive into The Buffalo Hunter Hunter. We talk about the layered storytelling structure, including journals, interviews, and found documents, and we discuss how Jones uses horror to explore history, violence, and accountability.  We wrap up with our pairings: Jen recommends Dan Simmons's The Terror (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm), and Ashley shares Emelia Hart's Weyward (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm), plus we both shout out other Stephen Graham Jones books.  We'd love to hear what you thought of The Buffalo Hunter Hunter.

Tired of Toxic Love? Let's Talk Breaking the Bare Minimum CycleWe're TIRED. Like… “pour me another drink and block his number” tired. This week, Kiki and Medinah are talking all things toxic love — from those “situationships” that drain your energy to the men who swear they're emotionally available but can't even text back.Our guest, comedian Kamilla Davis (@kdaviscomedy), joins us for some real and raw girl talk about love, loyalty, and the lies we tell ourselves to stay in bad relationships. We're laughing through the pain, unpacking manipulation disguised as “effort,” and getting honest about how to finally choose peace over potential.If you've ever felt stuck in something that looked like love but felt like labor, this one's for you. Tune in for laughs, healing, and a few hard truths about what it really means to stop entertaining the bare minimum.Chapters:00:00:02 - Intro: We're Tired, Sis00:01:14 - Host Catch-Up00:05:22 - Meet Kamilla Davis00:12:42 - Game Time00:20:09 - Luteal Phase Realness00:31:33 - The Dog Drama00:36:05 - Leftovers and Letdowns00:41:16 - When Love Feels Like Labor00:55:22 - Clean House, Clear Mind01:12:52 - Laugh Through the Pain
