They chat about how Doug got started in comedy, why he gave us the Chicken Song, how Galton and Simpson inspired the writing of Red Dwarf, the difficulty of getting a sci-fi sitcom off the ground and how losing a leg at the age of 7 led to a correspondence with Douglas Bader. They then talk about what inspired Sinbin Island and how it started off about being about aliens, why so many kids books revolve around orphans, the decision to make the story reassuringly old-fashioned and yet still funny and relevant, whether the story is deliberately written to be unfilmable (at least without a huge budget) and if it was inspired by Doug's own experiences at boarding school. Plus the intriguing Russian nesting dolls and what they say about free will or time travel, but let's not give too much away.Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/sin-bin-island-a-financial-times-children-s-book-of-the-year-from-red-dwarf-co-creator-doug-naylor-doug-naylor/3ad56d65845f8273SUPPORT 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.

    What's Your Superpower?In this episode of CockTales: Dirty Discussions, Kiki and Medinah tap into reflection, purpose, and grown-woman clarity as they unpack the question: what's your real superpower? From unexpected “God wink” moments to conversations about confidence, imposter syndrome, and walking into rooms knowing you belong, this episode is about recognizing your value without needing permission.The ladies open up about how their strengths show up in work, relationships, and community — and why sometimes it takes a stranger, a producer, or a quiet moment to remind you that you're exactly where you're supposed to be. They also talk about commitment in this season of life, learning how to say no without guilt, setting boundaries that actually protect your peace, and why burnout isn't a badge of honor.In Weird Sex, the conversation turns to curiosity, threesomes, and ethical non-monogamy — breaking down how to talk about fantasies honestly, why curiosity doesn't equal dissatisfaction, and how consent and communication make all the difference.As always, things take a turn into real life: fostering chaotic cats, stepping back from dating, learning new skills, choosing rest, and staying grounded when life feels overwhelming. If you've been questioning your path, feeling stuck, or wondering whether you're doing enough, this episode is a reminder that your presence, your voice, and your energy matter more than you think.Sometimes your superpower isn't loud — it's just consistent.

I am joined by two co-authors of the new book Attensity!: A Manifesto of the Attention Liberation Movement. They tell me why the ‘attention economy' would be better termed ‘human fracking', and how the problem is so much more than can be solved by a new year's resolution or more restrictions on screen time.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

(6:00) You can purchase the NSNG® E-book for a small fee at https://nsng.vinnietortorich.com/product/intro-to-nsng/ What meats can you eat? What are the possibilities? (12:30) It's not required that you eat grass-fed or organic meats—eat what you can afford. Many times, you can find a local small farmer and buy a portion of beef or pork at a discount. What about processed meats like bacon, salami, and cold cuts? (18:00) How bacon is cured makes a difference. (19:00) Cold cuts can be acceptable on occasion, but they often have additives. Eggs are a fantastic food—completely nutrient-dense! (26:00) Good, real, whole milk cheeses, kefir, and full-fat Greek yogurt are all great choices. Don't be afraid of real heavy cream. Try to find one without any additives, if possible. Vinnie emphasizes that you can't eat *anything* with impunity, meaning you can't go rogue and overeat, even if you're eating healthy options. (20:00) Moving on to vegetables and fruits. (32:30) Leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables are your best bet. Onions and peppers are great, too. Enjoy savory fruits like avocado, tomatoes, and olives, but they also discuss citrus, berries, and eating fruit in season. (35:00) Nuts: High-fat nuts like pili and macadamia are the best; however, you can enjoy some others, but be careful—it doesn't take many to overdo them. (46:00) If you are trying to be vegan on NSNG, beans are a better source of nutrients than grains. If you are a vegetarian, eating eggs, cheese, and nuts is recommended to boost your protein intake.

    Last summer, one of KUOW's Book Club selections was Seattle author Ijeoma Oluo’s 2024 bestseller, Be a Revolution: How Everyday People Are Fighting Oppression and Changing the World – and How You Can, Too. In it, Oluo shows how people across the nation are creating positive change for racial equity within our most important systems – like the media, policing, education, and many more. The aim of the book is educational, but also to inspire direct action from its readers. In the revolutionary spirit of Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, here's KUOW's Katie Campbell's conversation with Ijeoma Oluo. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK workout videos Cardio vs. Strength Training Where does a beginner start? (5:00) Just start with what you know you can do. If you are sedentary, start with a short walk and gradually increase it each time. Your aerobic vs anaerobic capacity is different things. (9:00) Vinnie gives a list of the variety of things that qualify as each. There are different benefits to cardio and strength training. (17:00) What is recommended? Picking one focus and sticking to it (for example, cardio), or finding a balance between cardio *and* strength training to start? (22:00) Vinnie shares his brother Mark's journey. (23:00) Sometimes, you really do have to start with "baby steps" and grow into the routine. Vinnie likes to consider Zone 2 (70-80% of your cardiac capacity) as cardio; however, if someone is starting, any walk will help them get started. (36:00) In strength training, it can be intoxicating to feel yourself get stronger. (39:00) You will feel the strength before you start seeing visible gains. (43:00) The Zones Vinnie describes the Five Zones; however, you only need to pay attention to four of them. (47:30) The calculation to find Zone 2 (with the Maffetone method) is: 180 - (your age) = desired heart rate, or beats per minute. If you are already active, you can add about five more points to the desired heart rate. Before starting any exercise program, it is highly recommended that you see your doctor first and have a stress test. If you are eating correctly, such as with NSNG®, exercise will help build lean muscle mass. (59:00) More is not always better; sometimes, more recovery is better. (1:01:00) Vinnie recommends 4 or 5 hours a week for cardio, unless you are training for a marathon or similar competition.

They chat about where the idea came from, how John and Douglas Adams happily collaborated on this idea, even after falling out over Hitchhiker's Guide, whether being bumped out of that project was actually the best thing for John, how money and fame never fill the hole that people who covet them hope it will fill, whether any of the definitions have achieved general acceptance, how John got Hitchhikers Guide on to the TV (even if they quickly shot him off into space), the legendary Not 1982 book that spawned the Meaning of Liff as a book (and Rich proudly brings in the copy of Not 1983 that he won at school) and how laughing til you cry at stupid ideas is one of the joys of comedy collaboration, even if the double act eventually ends in acrimony. Plus the genesis of the News Quiz, how perfectionism can lead to accusations of being difficult, why buying a yacht is a dick move and how John almost died the perfect comedy death.Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-meaning-of-liff-the-original-dictionary-of-things-there-should-be-words-for-douglas-adams/11921SUPPORT 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.

    Why We Love Star Wars Novels: Behind the Scenes of Star Wars Generations Book ClubThe Star Wars Generations hosts pull back the curtain on their popular book club series, explaining what makes the written word such a powerful medium for galaxy far, far away storytelling. Erin, Alex, and Matthew share their personal journeys with Star Wars literature and preview upcoming selections.What makes Star Wars books worth reading when the franchise is so visual? While Star Wars is known for spectacular lightsaber duels and space battles, novels provide something films cannot: direct access to characters' internal thoughts and emotional struggles. This inside-the-head perspective reveals motivations, moral conflicts, and character development that external observation alone cannot capture, making quieter characters and complex political situations come alive.How did Karen Traviss's Republic Commando series revolutionize clone representation? Traviss transformed clones from the faceless soldiers seen in Attack of the Clones into fully realized individuals. By exploring what it means to be a 10-year-old mind in a warrior's body—someone with combat training but limited life experience—the series gave clones emotional depth and raised profound questions about creating sentient beings designed for war.Why do some fans prefer Senate politics to lightsaber battles? Books allow for detailed exploration of governmental intrigue and bureaucratic maneuvering that would never sustain a film or TV show. Whether it's Claudia Gray's Bloodline following Princess Leia through New Republic politics or imagining literal Senate meeting minutes from the late Republic era, novels serve readers who find the talking more compelling than the fighting.How do novels keep the Star Wars universe alive between screen content? For fans who grew up with limited films and shows, books opened doors to unexplored corners of the galaxy and filled gaps that visual media cannot cover. From the original Timothy Zahn Thrawn trilogy to modern canon novels, books answer lingering questions, develop side characters, and create the connective tissue between major events—including crucial story elements like Vader discovering Padmé's grave that many fans miss in comics.Other Topics Covered:How the Darth Plagueis novel makes the prequel trilogy more meaningfulThe value of reading movie novelizations for additional character insightHow Thrawn's journey from Legends books to Rebels to Ahsoka demonstrates the book-to-screen pipelineThe challenge of reading established film characters on page versus original literary creationsDoctor Aphra's successful transition from comics to audio dramatizationThe hosts' different relationships with comics versus proseImportant canon revelations happening in comics that fans might missHow books serve readers at different ages and knowledge levelsThe hosts invite listeners to read along and share their own Star Wars reading recommendations, with advance notice of upcoming topics for group discussion. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

    In this episode, I'm joined by Kathy Reichs, one of the most respected voices in forensic science and crime fiction. A practicing forensic anthropologist and the author behind the Temperance Brennan series (Bones), Reichs brings a rare dual perspective—working real cases involving unidentified remains while also translating that science into compelling narrative.Our conversation moves beyond pop-culture portrayals of forensic work and into the reality of what bones can—and cannot—tell us. We talk about skeletal trauma, time since death, identification challenges, and the responsibility that comes with speaking for the dead. Reichs also reflects on how her real-world experience shapes her fiction, the limits of forensic certainty, and why patience and restraint matter as much as expertise in death investigations.This is a grounded, thoughtful discussion about science, truth, and storytelling—centered not on spectacle, but on accountability, accuracy, and the lives behind the evidence.Kathy Reichs is a board-certified forensic anthropologist who has worked on hundreds of cases involving unidentified human remains. She is also the bestselling author of the Temperance Brennan series, which inspired the television show Bones. Reichs is known for her insistence on scientific accuracy, ethical storytelling, and victim-centered work—both in the lab and on the page.

    Rebecca Armitage joins Carol Fitzgerald to discuss her debut novel, THE HEIR APPARENT, which was a Reese's Book Club pick and a Bookreporter Bets On selection. Rebecca describes the book as a modern-day fairy tale. Lexi, who is living in Tasmania and training to be a doctor, is summoned home after a skiing accident kills her father and critically injures her brother. Her grandmother is the Queen of England; she is the heir apparent and must return to London. Carol loved the cinematic opening scene with the helicopter landing to whisk Lexi away from her life in Australia. Rebecca drew upon her experience as a journalist covering the royal family to create an authentic portrayal of their lives. The story centers on Lexi's decision between duty to the crown and personal freedom, complicated by a secret that could prevent her from taking the throne. The relationships in the book highlight the sacrifices required by royal life and explore whether or not genuine connections can survive within the constraints of the monarchy. Rebecca discusses the Australian setting, particularly Tasmania, and its significance in the book. She shares that she moved to Tasmania during the pandemic and realized that it was the perfect place for Lexi's escape.

(3:30) Protein levels are better, but recommendations for fat macros are still off. Institutions will follow the written guidelines, which are not necessarily reflected in the upside-down pyramid graphic. Institutions, like schools, have contracts with Big Food companies, which will affect how closely they follow the guidelines. (12:15) Chris goes through some of the guidelines. (15:30) The fat intake recommendations are off, in Vinnie's experience. (24:00) Saturated fat is limited to 10% of all fats. (30:00) Vinnie believes these guidelines are good overall, but didn't go far enough. (33:00) Institutions, companies, congresspeople, and others would most likely push back on a larger sweeping change. Whole grains, packaged breakfast options, and processed foods are at the bottom of the upside-down pyramid, and rightly so. (41:30) Limiting ultra-processed foods and refined carbs is recommended. (46:00) No meal should contain more than 10g of added sugars. It even defines what "added sugars" are. The last point discusses sodium and electrolytes.

    Pat Rodgers – The Erratic Syd Emery It's always a joy when Pat Rodgers, great friend of the pod, dives into a story from cricket's pre-WW1 golden era. The subject of his latest terrific book is googly wizard Syd Emery, who emerged from the back blocks of Sydney to state and national honours in the unusual 1912 triangular Test tour of England. A star that faded as soon as it rose, Mad Mick, as he was nicknamed, was a complex man of his time who had a life that varied as markedly as his line and length.

    Word Balloon Book Club brings together John Siuntres, Patreon supporters, and members of Brian Michael Bendis's Discord for an in-depth, no-nonsense discussion of The Hunter, the hard-boiled graphic novel adaptation by Darwyn Cooke.The conversation digs into Cooke's razor-sharp storytelling, his mastery of mid-century crime aesthetics, and how The Hunter distills the brutal, minimalist spirit of classic pulp fiction into pure visual momentum. We break down Cooke's page design, color choices, and economy of dialogue, while also talking about why Parker remains such an enduring anti-hero and how this book stands apart from more traditional crime comics.It's a smart, passionate discussion fueled by creators, longtime readers, and serious fans.Equal parts literary analysis, comics craft talk, and shared enthusiasm for one of the great graphic novels of the 21st century. Exactly what a book club should be: focused, informed, and fun.
