Subscriber-only episodeSend us a textThere are always two sides to every story. In last week's episode we discussed Lucy Irvine's 1983 memoir Castaway, about her year-long experience on a deserted island. This week, Amy turns her attention to the memoir written by Irvine's “other half” on that adventure, Gerald Kingsland. Do the two authors' respective accounts of their time on tropical Tuin square with one another? And how did Kingsland really feel about the beautiful young woman who answered his classified ad for a “wife?”For episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comSubscribe to our substack newsletter.

There are many similarities between the fictional stories of Robinson Crusoe and the Tom Hanks film, Castaway. Man becomes stranded on a deserted island, following a wreck. Man first struggles to survive, before becoming one with his surroundings, and thrives. Man is rescued, and finds himself missing life on the island. But there is one major similarity that is often overlooked, and that is that both of these critically acclaimed, fictional survival stories, are based on the real life Marooning of Alexander Selkirk.

Who'd have thought that answering a magazine advert to be a man's "wife" on an island, fending for yourself for an entire year, would be a terrible idea? They have to live off the land, free from outside influence, a true escape from the monotony of city life in London. We believe this feeling of "escape" is a very "Western" idealist concept. In that respect, it's a very throwaway idea. But these guys actually did it. And here's the end result.Based on the true story of Lucy Irvine, who answered a magazine advert to spend one year on a secluded island with a man she had just met seems too wild to have happened. Starring Oliver Reed and Amanda Donohoe, directed by Nicholas Roeg, this film is a mixed experience, especially as rare as the film is to obtain in its original, legitimate release.

Novelist Allegra Goodman found the name of a marooned French noblewoman in a history book decades ago when she was vacationing with her family off the coast of Canada. The woman’s name was mentioned in passing and Allegra got curious about her life. Years later, Allegra is out now with the brilliant new novel “Isola” based on the real life of a 16th-century noblewoman Marguerite de la Rocque — and it’s February’s pick for Reese’s Book Club. She joins us to talk about her first foray into historical fiction and the moment when she first heard Marguerite’s voice in her head.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

in maintenance repair and operations so whenever you want to talk shop just Reach Out call click granger.com or just stop by Granger for the ones who get it done hey guys so third coffee nothing but phone calls for the last half hour anyway my new um project if you like or thing F the thing with being a recycler right you're always finding new things and new possibilities and new ideas inspiring ideas things that you can use and the other day I was out and about um with my brother we go on these Adventures on Thursdays right and I'd come across a shop that sold fossils and minerals um Rocks Crystals all that sort of thing um snails uh water snail casings and just um absolutely fantastic and I got really excited by them all um and my brother is a photographer stock photographer and there was some Driftwood there it was quite pricey some lovely Driftwood um anyway I was thinking about this Driftwood and I was thinking about how there's so much of it here where I live and thinking that's quite a cool resource isn't it I could sort of forage can you forage for something you can't eat or does foraging mean eating I'm not sure stuff you can eat but I can certainly acquire um bits of wood that I mean and sticks sticks interesting sticks and I really like this idea of sculpting playing creating art from stuff that I found the found object I do it with music I do it with my artworks now I've just done I've just released a load of artworks actually on blink friction which are um graffiti stencils on a a Victorian Bible that was very broken so it couldn't be sold on it was inappropriate for selling but it was fine for recycling as most things are so so much you can do with with recycled materials there really is and it really adds a curiousness and an interest I think to the finished product so really pleased actually with I sold one as well which is really good so if you pop over to eBay and maybe if you search blink friction I don't know I'm not sure if that will come up but if you go to my websites you you'll be able to see all of the wonderful wonderful artworks and fashion that I'm now forging ahead with but I've got so much uh Ro so many raw materials i' I've spent the last month sourcing Bargains on eBay of job lots of things like Army Surplus stuff um patches and old Levis old denim denim's wonderful absolutely wonderful thing to recycle it it's just perfect because barring things like glue if you get glue on denim is no good you won't get that off I don't I think certain glues will never come off anything look like a sort of Evo stick you know that's slightly yellow and it was horrific you there is nothing you can do with glue damaged Fabrics that I have discovered okay you may know differently tell me go to the blog and write me a message go to my Facebook or something so um I've put all this stuff in the cupboard but I did realize that the this it's kind of it makes me feel unsanitary Because unless they've been washed so everything that comes in needs to be washed but you know there's still this sort of idea that it's been around a bit and it's not you know it's not your brand spanking new Vivian Westwood that you just bought in Bond Street or something to you see what I mean it's it hasn't got quite got that same um ring to it or sense about it and of course this it's a sense that I love I love the sense the idea of buying an old Victorian Bible page that has been graffitied um and then you know mounting it in an expensive 3D frame or something really classy really Chic that I think is the perfect mix I do think if you buy a bit of artwork that's recycled you have to think very long and hard about how you're going to display it to make it make sure it's no longer a a Castaway and it doesn't feel like a cast away it doesn't feel like you know if you put it in a a 2bit frame that you know that's got scratches on it and um or a mass-produced plastic frame for example that really you didn't think too much about perhaps if you don't mount it that's always a giveaway should always mount an original artwork so you know these there are ways of making recycled art look really top-notch but you do have to think about it a bit anyway back to the Driftwood so um I was thinking about Driftwood a lot because I was minded of a a frame that I made for a friend very very large drift wood frame and I had to keep going out and sourcing this Driftwood and drying it out and then gluing it onto the mirror and she she said she absolutely loved it I don't know if it was a lie or not I always felt it was but uh in later years I confronted her about it and she promised me that it was absolutely wonderful and she loved it I still don't know if that's actually true so but let Let's Pretend shall we that she thought it was absolutely F she very classy lady as well um so yeah um I was Googling yesterday basically I was Googling how can I be a millionaire with Recycling and I was hoping for some inspiration um but the inspiration that came were well the fact finding Mission the stats proved that the most lucrative of all reclaim is metal so scrap metal that's where the the do is guys scrap metal so you know there are you can be a millionaire but you need a probably a string of scrap metal yards um it's interesting isn't it how something so tangled and dirty could create money I I did find that interesting um there's no way I'm going to do that there's no way I'm going to go out in the middle of the night and rob derel houses of their lead and you know other scraps or buy up old knacked washing machines and sell them for scrap that's just not going to happen um that's not quite what they do though is it I don't know how does scrap what what happens to scrap metal when it's taken into the the yard what happens after that I'm not I'm not 100% sure um I know you can go to a scrap yard and buy bits and in fact my godfather was being really annoying the other day he was saying oh you can go when your em is uh up and they tell you what's wrong you can go and get the pieces that you need secondhand from from scrapyards and my mom and I were like no we're not going to do that and he say no it's very easy just go along and and he would not bloody shut up about it and we were like f off can you imagine well you I don't know if you can but my mother and I a 60 and an 80y old teetering into a scrap metal yard a an old car dumped car place looking for old brake pads so say oh yeah we'll have those I mean do they even get them out for you they probably do actually don't they but no it's not going to happen I mean I I couldn't possibly I've got a bright yellow coat that I'm wearing at the moment um Stella McCartney and there's no way I'd walk in there I'd get dirty I could I'd get dirty just looking at it do you know what I mean this is how I feel about all these reclaimed Levis that I've got slightly Mucky so I've I've found a home for all this stuff that's going to last me two years before I upcycle everything it might even last me 5 years you know but I'm going to make a point of you know trying to create one thing a week for for the clothing cuz blink friction clothing is close to my my heart anyway um so scrap metal was out but then I thought well what natural resources are here you know in my locality and there actually loads lots of fossils and um minerals and and rocks and certain interesting finds that you can you know you scour around this guy at this shop the other day told me that because the the solent between the aisle of white and uh gosport is the it used to be before it was water logged it used to be forest and it and inhabited with people and there are parts of the area this chap told me that you can go to When the tide is out and you can see the old tree stumps you can actually see them because the water's darker or some something he said so I'm absolutely without a Shadow of Doubt want to go there next Thursday I'm really Keen to try that out um but also the Driftwood so I I found some recycled Driftwood models things that people had made with the Driftwood and they excited me greatly people are making Thrones for your garden out of Driftwood fantastic um thousands of pounds and I thought wow that's really adding a lot of value I mean I I'm not much of a carpenter it would be difficult for me to make from scratch something like that but it wouldn't be difficult to get the chair and then to adhes is that a word adhere God I'm visualizing here that the throne that I would make it wouldn't be beyond my cap capabilities to to you know glue basically glue bits of Driftwood all over the chair and create something other something up upcycled something rather fantastic and I'm I'm really Keen to give it a go I over the moon that I found something that that's kind of fidly fiddly and therapeutic but different to Denim because the denims I'm kind of bored of the denim now um so the other thing is you can just get bits of Driftwood and bits of drift Driftwood once they're dried out they they're either soft or hardwood you can tell by pting your nail in and Crafters love them Crafters love Driftwood so the more unusual the shape or I'll tell you who uses Driftwood t

The films of screenwriter Bill Broyles have time and again cemented themselves as classics of American cinema. Following his debut with the acclaimed series ‘China Beach’, came films including ‘Apollo 13’, ‘Cast Away’ and ‘Jarhead’. Broyles’ writing for the screen has been informed at least in part by an eventful personal life. As a young man, he was a US Marine Corps platoon commander in the Vietnam War, an experience he recalls in the Apple TV+ series ‘Vietnam: The War That Changed America’. He was subsequently a journalist, launching ‘Texas Monthly’ and editing ‘Newsweek’ before heading to Hollywood. Broyles sits down with Andrew Mueller for a contemplative look back on his successes and failures, as well as reflecting on the best and worst aspects of American culture.

Pastor Gary Lamb begins a series preaching on the book of Jonah. This episode covers the first few verses of chapter 1.

Part 4 of Ronnie's series on the Book of Genesis highlights Noah and the Flood: "There are a lot of reasons the story of Noah and the Flood is told as it is. To show the superior powers around the nation of Israel that Yahweh remains supremely in command; to show that the Hebrew God is not capricious - that God is capable of emotion, regret, even change; to show that God ultimately commits himself to human flourishing: But above all it is told to embolden a washed-up, washed-over, and washed-out remnant of survivors who are barely hanging on by a thread. For they were at a crossroad with a choice to make: They could give up their faith and be assimilated into the faceless mass of that Empire - or - resolutely, courageously, rebuild on the fresh mud of the freshly inflicted disaster they had suffered.  "This isn't really a story about animals marching two by two. It's the test of one family's persistence. It's not a story to ferret out historical facts. It's intended as a lesson in survival. This story is the second option: 'We will not be assimilated. We will not forfeit our hope - not even in a world washed away - not even with a God we don't fully understand.' This story is written as an act of holy defiance - against their circumstances, against their sufferings, against easy answers, against those who had imprisoned them - and against God himself if need be. They refused to quit believing, and chose to survive for their own sake and the sake of all others.”

On Wednesdays we wear pink, but on Mondays we release pods! Andy's dream of a Mean Girls pod finally comes true, and thankfully he doesn't have it to do it alone. Joined by Steven, Kai, and Michelle, together they take a time machine back to 2004 to relive this classic from the creative mind of Tina Fey. We hope you enjoy our discussion; it's so "fetch"!Timestamps:Introduction – (00:00)Story Time – (03:10)No Cap Recap – (07:50)Opening Lines – (11:50)Best Thing I've Ever Scene – (24:28)Behind the Scenes – (32:03)Winners and Losers – (43:46)grp.

Fr. Brian and Fr. Matt explore the treatment of time and place in Here, a 2024 drama film depicting the events of a single spot of land over time. They discuss how this unique perspective, and the non-chronological order in which events are shown, mirrors the omniscience of God, who is similarly outside time. They also consider the passage of time in real life, and the significance of nostalgia and memory in the Christian life. (0:28) Fr. Brian and Fr. Matt open the episode by discussing some of the movies they've seen recently, including Whiplash (2014), Harold and the Purple Crayon (2024), and Didi (2024). Then, they introduce the movie being covered in this episode: Here, a 2024 drama film depicting the events of a single spot of land over time. (6:48) Our hosts discuss the unique format of Here, which is shot from a single, fixed camera angle to show a single spot throughout time, from when dinosaurs roamed the area to the present day. The stories are shown in non-chronological order, allowing the viewer to identify parallels between different experiences in this spot over time. Fr. Brian provides the example of the film's depiction of the Spanish flu alongside the COVID-19 pandemic.(13:42) Fr. Brian talks about one of the main storylines in the film, the lives of a couple played by Tom Hanks and Robin Wright. The hosts also discuss how the plot's focus on time echoes the way time contributes to conflict in classical Greek tragedies. Fr. Brian and Fr. Matt then discuss the significance of sacred time and sacred places. (19:02) Fr. Matt talks about the idea of time passing and changes taking place at his parish, Our Lady of the Rosary on Woodward Avenue in Detroit near Wayne State University. While the parish's ministry today is mostly focused on campus ministry, around 100 years ago the pastor was known to ride his white horse to parishioners' homes for sick calls. Similarly, while Old St. Mary Church is located in a neighborhood called Greektown, its stained glass windows feature the names of German donors who lived there when it was predominately a German neighborhood. Our hosts then talk about how the perspective of the movie—a single camera angle viewing events over time—mirrors the omniscience of God, who is outside time.(25:02) Fr. Brian mentions that the director of Here, Robert Zemeckis, has notably worked on a number of other movies that deal with the passage of time, including Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, and Cast Away. The hosts then turn to the topic of nostalgia and memory in the Christian life, and how the climax of the film shows us that it's in the ability to remember that we see things from different perspectives. (33:40) Fr. Matt and Fr. Brian share some of their critiques of the movie, most notably the aging and “de-aging” technology used to alter the actors' appearances. They then rank the film using their “seeds of the word” rating, based on how clearly they saw goodness, truth, and beauty reflected in the story. Before concluding the episode, Fr. Matt invites listeners to send in their feedback—including which movies they'd like to see covered next—to cinema@aod.org.

Can you imagine being stranded for years on a remote uninhabited island with almost nothing but a few simple tools and the clothes on your back? Some people haven't had to imagine this scenario, like Alexander Selkirk, the inspiration for Robinson Crusoe, and Fernão Lopes, who would actually live alone for a total of several decades on the remote Atlantic island of St. Helena. Could you survive like they did? For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com
