Ripley's Believe It Or Not - 1 Minute Episodes xx-xx-xx (392) Victory Castle

Parecía imposible ganar un partido a estos Oklahoma City Thunder. Quién podía pensar en ganarles dos a Shai, Chet, Jalen y compañía. Pero en qué cabeza entra que exista un equipo capaz de arrebatarles tres victorias a este equipo de rango dinástico, defensa histórica y hambre inagotable. Pues... vaya, aquí están los San Antonio Spurs de Wembanyama, Castle, Fox, Harper, y la lista sigue y sigue hasta una profundidad casi inaudita. Vaya día de Navidad nos ha regalado la NBA. Otra hazaña para los texanos, esta con especial morbo y complicación: la de ganar tres partidos seguidos, de tú a tú y con toda Oklahoma volcada en el pabellón de los Thunder para crear un ambiente de Playoffs que se fue diluyendo ante el maravilloso baloncesto desplegado por los de Mitch Johnson. Por si fuera poco, el Madison vivió una remontada que aumenta la esperanza de New York Knicks; los Warriors respiran en casa ante la venida de Cooper Flagg y Klay; los Lakers no tienen aliento ni fuerzas para aguantar el tipo a unos Houston Rockets muy normalitos; y... Jokic, ay, Nikola Jokic. Barbaridad del serbio para finalizar esta jornada tan especial con un partido memorable entre Denver Nuggets y Minnesota Timberwolves, una rivalidad cada vez más pronunciada, aunque por ahora el galardón de ser el enfrentamiento más apetecible pertenezca al vigente campeón y al aspirante con menos complejos y más diamantes en bruto. Mínimo de Veterano es la sitcom de la NBA. El templo de la redonda. Un podcast original de Diario AS. Todos los lunes y jueves, nuevo episodio con Pepe Rodríguez, Toni Vidal y Juanma Rubio.

His mum came back from a bar shift, wrapped her arms around him and said:“Simon, you're special. You're going to be a leader of men. You're going to achieve great wealth and success. And I believe in you”From washing dishes and sleeping in a room above a local restaurant… to becoming the youngest GM in Four Seasons… to running 45 hotels and 17,000 people… to now leading Corinthia's push to “challenge luxury's usual suspects” - this is a story of belief, graft, failure, and a very people first kind of success.In This Episode“You're a failure” at 15 – the careers officer, the crushing conversation, and the one sentence from his mum that changed everythingDishes, cheap digs & cheap labour – washing up, living above the restaurant, then a “management training scheme” that was really just doing every job in the hotel (and secretly the best education imaginable)Castles, chefs & the Four Seasons bug – being spotted by Kit Chapman at The Castle at Taunton, working alongside a young Gary Rhodes, and being introduced to Four Seasons as “the greatest hotel company in the world”From managing to leading – the early disaster as Room Service Manager at Four Seasons London and the moment it all changedWashington, Doha, Dubai & beyond – Clinton era D.C., meeting heads of state and celebrities, becoming the youngest Four Seasons GM in Doha, opening hotels in the Middle East and Africa, and eventually becoming President for Europe, Middle East & AfricaSacrifice, anxiety & imposter syndrome – missing chunks of his kids' childhood, hiding the fact he had no degree, and learning that pressure, doubt and growth often live in the same roomThe “second mountain” – stepping away after 35 years at Four Seasons, retreating to a farm in Croatia, and then being courted by global brands before choosing Corinthia as the place to write his next chapterCorinthia's new chapter – why London was transformational, how New York became “the star of the Met Gala”, and what it really means to be a “true contender” in global luxuryStand-Out Quotes“When the whole world's saying, ‘No, you can't,' you really just need one person to say, ‘Yes, I believe in you.

Merry Christmas! In between looking at houses to rent and packing up the Granger house in Oklahoma City, Nick and John put together this yuletide conversation about perhaps the most neglected of Rowling's influences, Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle. John was a reluctant reader, but, while listening to the audio book, reading the Gutenberg.com file on his computer, and digging the codex out of his packed boxes of books, the author of Harry Potter's Bookshelf was totally won over to Nick's enthusiasm for Castle.In fact, John now argues that, even if Rowling didn't read it until she was writing Goblet of Fire as some have claimed, I Capture the Castle may be the best single book to understand what it is that Rowling-Galbraith attempts to do in her fiction. Just as Dodie Smith has her characters explain overtly and the story itself delivers covertly, When Rowling writes a story, like Smith it is inevitably one that is a marriage of Bronte and Austen, wonderfully accessible and engaging, but with important touches in the ‘Enigmatist' style of Joyce and Nabokov, full of puzzles and twists in the fashion of God's creative work (from the Estecean logos within every man [John 1:9] continuous with the Logos) rather than a portrait of creation per se. Can you say ‘non liturgical Sacred Art'?And if you accept, per Nick's cogent argument, that Rowling read Castle many times as a young wannabe writer? Then this book becomes a touchstone of both Lake and Shed readings of Rowling's work — and Smith one of the the most important influences on The Presence.Merry Christmas, again, to all our faithful readers and listeners! Thank you for your prayers and notes of support and encouragement to John and for making 2025 a benchmark year at Hogwarts Professor. And just you wait for the exciting surprises we have in hand for 2026!Hogwarts Professor is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The Twelve Questions and ‘Links Down Below' Referred to in Nick and John's I Capture the Castle Conversation:Question 1. So, Nick, we spoke during our Aurora Leigh recording about your long term project to read all the books that Rowling has admitted to have read (link down below!), first question why? and secondly how is that going?Rowling's Admitted Literary InfluencesWhat I want is a single internet page reference, frankly, of ‘Rowling's Admitted Literary Influences' or ‘Confessed Favorites' or just ‘Books I have Read and Liked' for my thesis writing so I needn't do an information dump that will add fifty-plus citations to my Works Cited pages and do nothing for the argument I'm making.Here, then, is my best attempt at a collection, one in alphabetical order by last name of author cited, with a link to at least one source or interview in which Rowling is quoted as liking that writer. It is not meant as anything like a comprehensive gathering of Rowling's comments about any author; the Austen entry alone would be longer than the whole list should be if I went that route. Each author gets one, maybe two notes just to justify their entry on the list.‘A Rowling Reading of Aurora Leigh' Nick Jeffery Talking about ‘A Rowling Reading of Aurora Leigh' Question 2. ... which has led me to three works that she has read from the point of view of writers starting out, and growing in their craft. Which leads us to this series of three chats covering Aurora Leigh by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith and the Little Women series by Louisa May Alcott. I read Castle during the summer. Amid all the disruptions at Granger Towers, have you managed to read it yet? How did you find it?Capturing Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle: Elizabeth Baird-Hardy (October 2011)Certain elements of the story will certainly resonate with those of us who have been to Hogwarts a fair few times: a castle with an odd combination of ancient and modern elements, but no electricity; eccentric family members who are all loved despite their individual oddities (including Topaz's resemblance to Fleur Delacour); travel by train; a character named Rose who may have been one of the reasons Rowling chose the name for Ron and Hermione's daughter; descriptions of food that make even somewhat questionable British cuisine sound tasty; and inanimate objects that have their own personalities (the old dress frame, which Rose and Cassandra call Miss Blossom, is voiced by Cassandra and sounds much like the talking mirror in Harry's room at the Leaky Caldron).But far more than some similar pieces, I Capture the Castle lends something less tangible to Rowling's writing. The novel has a tone that, like the Hogwarts adventures, seamlessly winds together the comic and the crushing in a way that is reflective of life, particularly life as we see it when we are younger. Cassandra's voice is, indeed, engaging, and readers will no doubt see how the narrative voice of Harry's story has some of the same features.A J. K. Rowling Reading of I Capture the Castle: Nick Jeffery (December 2025)Parallels abound for Potter fans. The Mortmain's eccentric household mirrors the Weasleys' chaotic warmth: loved despite quirks, from Topaz's nude communing with nature (evoking a less veiled Fleur Delacour) to Mortmain's intellectual withdrawal. Food descriptions—meagre yet tantalising—prefigure Hogwarts feasts, turning humble meals into sensory delights. Inanimate objects gain voice: the family dress-frame “Miss Blossom” offers advice, akin to the chatty mirrors or portraits in Rowling's world. Even names resonate—Rose Mortmain perhaps inspiring Ron and Hermione's daughter—and train journeys punctuate the plot.The Blocked Writer: James Mortmain, a father who spent his fame early and now reads detective novels in an irritable stupor, mirrors the “faded glory” or “lost genius” archetypes seen in Rowling's secondary characters, such as Xenophilius Lovegood and Jasper Chiswell.The Bohemian Stepmother: Topaz, who strides through the countryside in only wellington boots, shares the whimsical, slightly unhinged energy of a character like Luna Lovegood or Fleur Delacour.Material Yearning: The desperate desire of Cassandra's sister, Rose, to marry into wealth reflects the very real, non-magical pressures of class and poverty that Rowling weaves into Harry Potter, Casual Vacancy, Strike and The Ickabog.Leda Strike parallels: Leda Fox-Cotton the bohemian London photographer, adopts Stephen, the working-class orphan, and saves him from both unrequited love and the responsibility that comes with the Mortmain family.Question 3. [story of finishing the book last night by candle light in my electricity free castle] So, in short Nick, I thought it astonishing! I didn't read your piece until I'd finished reading Capture, of course, but I see there is some dispute about when Rowling first read it and its consequent influence on her as a writer. Can you bring us up to speed on the subject and where you land on this controversy?* She First Read It on her Prisoner of Azkaban Tour of United States?tom saysOctober 21, 2011 at 4:00 amIf I recall correctly, Rowling did not encounter this book until 1999 (between PoA & Goblet) when, on a book tour, a fan gave her a copy. This is pertinent to any speculation about how ‘Castle' might have influenced the Potter series.* Rowling Website: “Books I Read and Re-Read as a Child”Question 4. Which, when you consider the other books on that virtual bookshelf -- works by Colette, Austen, Shakespeare, Goudge, Nesbit, and Sewell's Black Beauty, something of a ‘Rowling's Favorite Books and Authors as a Young Reader' collection, I think we have to assume she is saying, “I read this book as a child or adolescent and loved it.” Taking that as our jumping off place, John, and having read my piece, do you wish you had read it before writing Harry Potter's Bookshelf?Harry Potter's Bookshelf: The Great Books behind the Hogwarts Adventures John Granger 2009Literary Allusion in Harry Potter Beatrice Groves 2017Question 5. So, yes, I certainly do think it belongs -- with Aurora Leigh and Little Women -- on the ‘Rowling Reader Essential Reading List.' The part I thought most interesting in your piece was, of course, the Shed elements I missed. Rowling famously said that she loved Jo Marsh in Little Women because, in addition to the shared name and the character being a wannabe writer, she was plain, a characteristic with which the young, plain Jane Rowling easily identified. What correspondences do you think Little Jo would have found between her life and Cassandra Mortmain's?* Nick Jeffery's Kanreki discussion of Rowling's House on Edge of Estate with Two Children, Bad Dad ‘Golden Thread' (Lethal White)Question 6. Have I missed any, John?* Rockefeller Chapel, University of ChicagoQuestion 7. Forgive me for thinking, Nick, that Cassandra's time in church taking in the silence there with all her senses may be the biggest take-away for the young Rowling; if the Church of England left their chapel doors open in the 70s as churches I grew up in did in the US, it's hard to imagine Jo the Reader not running next door to see what she felt there after reading that passage. (Chapter 13, conversation with vicar, pp 234-238). The correspondence with Beatrice Groves' favorite scene in the Strike novels was fairly plain, no? What other scenes and characters do you see in Rowling's work that echo those in Castle?* Chapter 13, I Capture the Castle: Cassandra's Conversation with the Vicar and time in the Chapel vis a vis Strike in the Chapel after Charlotte's Death* Beatrice Groves on Running Grave's Chapel Scene: ‘Strike's Church Going'Question 8. I'm guessing, John, you found some I have overlooked?Question 9. The Mortmain, Colly, and Cotton cryptonyms as well as Topaz and Cassandra, the embedded text complete with intratextuual references (Simon on psycho-analysis), the angelic servant-orphan living under the stairs (or Dobby's lair!) an orphan with a secret power he cannot see in himself, the great Transformation spell the children cast on their father, an experiment in psychomachia a la the Shrieking Shack or Chamber of Secrets, the hand-kiss we see at story's end from Smith, love delayed but expressed (Silkworm finish?), the haunting sense of the supernatural everywhere especially in the invocation that Rose makes to the gargoyle and Cassandra's Midsummer Night's Eve ritual with Simon, the parallels abound. Ghosts!* Please note that John gave “cotton” a different idiomatic meaning than it has; the correct meaning is at least as interesting given the Cotton family's remarkable fondness for all of the Mortmains!* Kanreki ‘Embedded Text' Golden Thread discussion 1: Crimes of Grindelwald* Kanreki ‘Embedded Text' Golden Thread discussion 2: Golden Thread Survey, Part II* Rose makes an elevated Faustian prayer to a Gargoyle Devil: Chapter IV, pp 43-46* Cassandra and Simon celebrate Midsummer Night's Eve: Chapter XII, pp 199-224Let's talk about the intersection of Lake and Shed, though, the shared space of Rowling's bibliography, works that shaped her core beliefs and act as springs in her Lake of inspiration and which give her many, even most of the tools of intentional artistry she deploys in the Shed. What did you make of the Bronte-Austen challenge that Rose makes explicitly in the story to her sister, the writer and avid reader?“How I wish I lived in a Jane Austen novel.” [said Rose]I said I'd rather be in a Charlotte Bronte.“Which would be nicest—Jane with a touch of Charlotte, or Charlotte with a touch of Jane?”This is the kind of discussion I like very much but I wanted to get on with my journal, so I just said: “Fifty percent each way would be perfect,” and started to write determinedly.Question 10. So, I'm deferring to both Elizabeth Barrett Browning and J. K Rowling. Elizabeth Barrett Browning valued intense emotion, social commentary, and a grand scope in literature, which led her to favour the passionate depth of the Brontës over the more restrained, ironical style of Jane Austen. Rowling about her two dogs: “Emma? She's a bundle of love and joy. Her sister, Bronte, is a bundle of opinions, stubbornness and hard boundaries.”Set in the 30s, written in the early 40s, but it seems astonishingly modern. Because her father is a writer, a literary novelist of the modern school, do you think there are other more contemporary novelists Dodie Smith was engaging than Austen and Bronte?Question 11. Mortmain is definitely Joyce, then, though Proust gets the call-out, and perhaps the most important possible take-away Rowling the attentive young reader would have made would have been Smith's embedded admiration for Joyce the “Enigmatist” she puts in Simon's mouth at story's end (Chapter XVI, pp 336-337) and her implicit criticism of literary novels and correction of that failing. Rowling's re-invention of the Schoolboy novel with its hidden alchemical, chiastic, soul-in-crisis-allegories and embedded Christian symbolism can all be seen as her brilliant interpretation of Simon's explanation of art to Cassandra and her dedication to writing a book like I Capture the Castle.* Reference to James Joyce by Simon Cotton, Chapter IX, p 139:* The Simon and Cassandra conversation about her father's novels, call it ‘The Writer as Enigmatist imitating God in His Work:' Chapter XVI, pp 331-334* On Imagination as Transpersonal Faculty and Non-Liturgical Sacred ArtSacred art differs from modern and postmodern conceptions of art most specifically, though, in what it is representing. Sacred art is not representing the natural world as the senses perceive it or abstractions of what the individual and subjective mind “sees,” but is an imitation of the Divine art of creation. The artist “therefore imitates nature not in its external forms but in its manner of operation as asserted so categorically by St. Thomas Aquinas [who] insists that the artist must not imitate nature but must be accomplished in ‘imitating nature in her manner of operation'” (Nasr 2007, 206, cf. “Art is the imitation of Nature in her manner of operation: Art is the principle of manufacture” (Summa Theologia Q. 117, a. I). Schuon described naturalist art which imitates God's creation in nature by faithful depiction of it, consequently, as “clearly luciferian.” “Man must imitate the creative act, not the thing created,” Aquinas' “manner of operation” rather than God's operation manifested in created things in order to produce ‘creations'which are not would-be duplications of those of God, but rather a reflection of them according to a real analogy, revealing the transcendental aspect of things; and this revelation is the only sufficient reason of art, apart from any practical uses such and such objects may serve. There is here a metaphysical inversion of relation [the inverse analogy connecting the principial and manifested orders in consequence of which the highest realities are manifested in their remotest reflections[1]]: for God, His creature is a reflection or an ‘exteriorized' aspect of Himself; for the artist, on the contrary, the work is a reflection of an inner reality of which he himself is only an outward aspect; God creates His own image, while man, so to speak, fashions his own essence, at least symbolically. On the principial plane, the inner manifests the outer, but on the manifested plane, the outer fashions the inner (Schuon 1953, 81, 96).The traditional artist, then, in imitation of God's “exteriorizing” His interior Logos in the manifested space-time plane, that is, nature, instead of depicting imitations of nature in his craft, submits to creating within the revealed forms of his craft, which forms qua intellections correspond to his inner essence or logos.[2] The work produced in imitation of God's “manner of operation” then resembles the symbolic or iconographic quality of everything existent in being a transparency whose allegorical and anagogical content within its traditional forms is relatively easy to access and a consequent support and edifying shock-reminder to man on his spiritual journey. The spiritual function of art is that “it exteriorizes truths and beauties in view of our interiorization… or simply, so that the human soul might, through given phenomena, make contact with the heavenly archetypes, and thereby with its own archetype” (Schuon 1995a, 45-46).Rowling in her novels, crafted with tools all taken from the chest of a traditional Sacred Artist, is writing non-liturgical Sacred Art. Films and all the story experiences derived of adaptations of imaginative literature to screened images, are by necessity Profane Art, which is to say per the meaning of “profane,” outside the temple or not edifying spiritually. Film making is the depiction of how human beings encounter the time-space world through the senses, not an imitation of how God creates and a depiction of the spiritual aspect of the world, a liminal point of entry to its spiritual dimension. Whence my describing it as a “neo-iconoclasm.”I want to close this off with our sharing our favorite scene or conversation in Castle with the hope that our Serious Reader audience will read Capture and share their favorites. You go first, Nick.* Cassandra and Rose Mortmain, country hicks in the Big City of London: Chapter VI, pp 76-77Question 12.

What do acclaimed Italian opera tenor Andrea Bocelli, a hideous whiskey-drinking Spanish-speaking monkey puppet, and the daughter of the Queen of Hearts all have in common? Well, apart from that unforgettable evening at Burning Man a few years back, absolutely nothing...until now. For our one and only Christmas episode of 2025, the randomizer is going all the way back to the mid-2020s to pick a trio of Christmas shorts - a Simpsons short where the "Con Te Partirò" guy serenades the most important family in Springfield, an Argentinian sitcom special where a repulsive talking monkey puppet forces holiday cheer down the throat of a depressed widower, and of course a Disney Channel music video where the offspring of a villain infamous for decapitating her subjects demands that Christmas must be bent to her will aesthetically. And if that's not what Christmas is all about, I don't know what is. Wait, yes I do. Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Zach Hurst as they try to find excuses not to attend CHUECO'S CHRISTMAS AND OTHER CHRISTMAS SHORTS!

Det er juletid, og Poptillægget genudsender det bedste fra arkivet hver dag fra 1. til 24. december. Afsnittet er oprindeligt udgivet d 2. december 2022. Julefilmen er en genre for sig, og hver eneste november dukker de op på stort set alle streamingtjenester. Film med titler som ’Holidate’, ’A Christmas Prince’ , ’Christmas without You’, ’Candy Coated Christmas’, ’Snowmance’, ’A Christmas Match’, ’A Christmas Kiss’, ’Naughty and Nice’ og ’A Castle for Christmas’. Kiksede og klichefyldte titler med ofte lige så kikset og klichéfyldt indhold. De er som et trafikuheld - vi kan ikke holde øjnene væk fra dem. I anledning af julen og Lindsay Lohans comeback med filmen ’Falling for Christmas’ dykker vi ned i det store julefilmskatalog. Fra ’You’ve got mail’, ’The Holiday’ og ’Love Actually’, de originale rom-com julefilm, til de nyere og mindre kvalitetsbevidste. Hop i den kabelstrikkede sweater og kom i julestemning med os.

A woman was found dead below a 140-foot cliff at Miner's Castle in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore after her husband reported that she had fallen while he was away using the restroom. What initially appeared to be a tragic accident quickly unraveled as investigators uncovered shifting stories, troubling behavior, financial pressure, and a long history of emotional and physical abuse within the marriage. This is a case that highlights how intimate partner violence, coercive control, and deception can hide in plain sight, even in the most breathtaking wilderness settings.Support the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!!  https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and  (1) FacebookSourceshttps://www.nps.gov/piro/learn/news/richardson-sentenced.htmhttps://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCOURTS-miwd-1_14-cv-01250/pdf/USCOURTS-miwd-1_14-cv-01250-0.pdfhttps://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna25443664https://www.newspapers.com/article/lansing-state-journal/26563548/

White Castle steam-griddle station... ambience. The perspective of this week's episode is near the burger steaming station (if you're curious how that operation goes, let Double Dare's Marc Summers walk you through it). And not to worry — you can sleep at this steaming station; no one is worried about what you're doing.And BTW, this isn't sanctioned or intended to be an ad. I'm just a fan and would love to imagine myself within arm's length of those steamy sliders. I have a bit of a White Castle problem: I have the White Castle Pumas, I'm usually a sack of ten and a Cherry Coke (no fries) — if I were hungry enough to add fries at any other fast-food spot, I'm spending that hunger on another sack of ten.And as a programming note: if the White Castle Corporation sends me a cease-and-desist, this description will instead be geared toward the oddly shaped meatloaf burgers my father would make, stuffed with Bac-Os, mushrooms, breadcrumbs, and onions. The patties were so oddly shaped, if they were in orbit they would be confused with Saturn's moon, Hyperion.One of the most notorious of these family “burger nights” ended with us watching a VHS of my mother at work in the cath lab. Had to wait until the end because she said something funny. Aside from the occasional flying streams of blood, it was hella boring.Until then — we are boosting the Castle for free. And I have to think that the oft-trod subject of “Where the hell are they?” adds to their nostalgic appeal — at least for those of us who know there are a bunch in New Jersey, but we're not quite sure where. I swear the White Castles of New Jersey operate in the Doctor Who universe. White Castles only ever appear like, “Surprise *****! I'm in Ledgewood now!” And then maybe it's not there next time because… TARDIS perception filter.And I haven't seen the Dude, Where's My White Castle? movie, so I could just be describing the plot of that. It's a thread that runs through all of us. No matter where we as a species go — like, we could be going into space — we still somehow need to drive through New Jersey first (and hopefully near a food exit with a Castle logo).I was on a road trip with a buddy in '09, and White Castle was the “food exit” around Perth Amboy. I nudged him: “White Castle, man — let's go.”“Nah, man,” he said. “There'll be one up there. Don't worry.” My buddy never liked leaving the highways in NJ for local roads. I suspected the lack of legal left turns spited him somehow.But I countered with a pre-I-told-you-so — like, “If you see a White Castle, even if you're not hungry, you go. It doesn't matter how New Jersey you think that New Jersey town is — you can't count on White Castle being there.”Parsippany burned us, and we ate Burger King or some ****.

Vierter Adventssonntag, Edinburgh: Die Luft ist klar und kalt, der Atem zeichnet kleine Wolken in den Princes Street Gardens. Lichterketten spannen sich durch die Dunkelheit, ein bunt leuchtendes Riesenrad dreht sich langsam, dahinter wacht das Castle über der Stadt. Weihnachtsmusik weht herüber, vermischt sich mit Stimmen und Gelächter. Edinburgh wirkt festlich, verspielt – und die Weihnachtsstimmung liegt spürbar in der Luft. In dieser Folge von BRITPOD – England at its best schlendern Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Behling durch das Winter Wonderland der schottischen Hauptstadt. Sie lassen sich treiben zwischen Buden und Düften, staunen über vertraute deutsche Spezialitäten mitten in Edinburgh und blicken aus luftiger Höhe über die erleuchtete Stadt. Es geht um Weihnachtsmärkte, Traditionen, kleine Beobachtungen am Rande und um diese besondere Stimmung, die Schottland in der Adventszeit entfaltet. Auch in der St. Giles Cathedral herrscht eine ganz eigene Atmosphäre. Ruhiger, besinnlicher, aber nicht weniger eindrucksvoll. Mitten auf der Royal Mile gelegen, ist sie eines der bedeutendsten historischen und religiösen Gebäude Schottlands. Im Gespräch mit Cathedral Steward Robin geht es um die Geschichte der Kirche, ihre Rolle als High Kirk der Church of Scotland und ihre enge Verbindung zur Monarchie. So wurde im September 2022, Queen Elizabeth II. nach ihrem Tod hier aufgebahrt. Es ist ein stiller Ort mit ganz viel Geschichte. Ein absolutes Highlight ist deswegen auch das Adventskonzert der University of Edinburgh in der St. Giles Cathedral. Getragen von der besonderen Akustik und der Atmosphäre des vierten Advents ist dieses Konzert exklusiv in dieser Podcast-Folge zu hören - Weihnachtsstimmung, die man nicht nur hört, sondern spürt. Warum gibt es auf einem schottischen Weihnachtsmarkt Spätzle, Bratwurst und deutsches Bier? Wie fühlt sich Edinburgh im Advent aus der Perspektive des Riesenrads an? Und was erzählt die St. Giles Cathedral über Schottland, die Monarchie und Weihnachten, wenn man ihr wirklich zuhört? BRITPOD – England at its best.

The Historical Museum at Bratislava Castle invites visitors to see one of the four replicas in the world of the necklace once worn by Marie Antoinette. Beata Greneche, one of the exhibition's co-curators, describes the jewel—featured in the exhibition “Marie Antoinette: From Celebration to Tragedy”—as the most famous necklace in history, as it allegedly helped spark the French Revolution. Elena Mihaly identifies as a Rusyn American and is currently applying for Slovak citizenship by descent. On her first-ever trip to Šarišské Jastrabie, she was accompanied by her mother, Michelle, who is also partly of Rusyn descent. Culture tips bring great news for Slovak literature.

The Castle of Otranto is regarded as the first Gothic novel, a genre appealing to a taste for terror and set in a remote past when prodigies and magic can be imagined to have existed, with violent contrasts between purity and ungoverned passions. The author represents the tale as having been translated from a black letter Italian volume of the 15th century but describing much earlier events. This fictional antiquity and the depiction of mysterious wonders, dark subterranean passages, fearsome apparitions, marvelous coincidences, and especially a savage threat to spotless innocence are all typical of this genre, which does not assure a reader of a happy ending.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

A micro-genre/movement/what have you that I've been doing my hardest to champion this year at Nine Circles is "castle metal"; melodic black metal rooted in the sound and aesthetic of Obsequiae while incorporating a multitude of other influences. There is an ever-growing roster of bands that have taken up the banner in similar yet distinct ways, and three released full-length albums this year: Morke with To Carry On, Veytik with Carmina Aerea in Aetate Ferrea, and Weald + Woe with Far From the Light of Heaven.The incredible musicians behind these three acts were kind enough to sit down with me to have an extended discussion on their main influences, lyrical and thematic inspirations, albums of year, and more. Don your chain mail, sharpen your sword, pour a chalice of your desired beverage, and enjoy! 9C LINKS: Website | Facebook | Twitter (X) | Instagram | Bluesky

Show Notes:This week we're chatting with elementary school teacher Jarrod Hornbeck, one of the cohosts of the podcast Puppet Master | Castle Freaks. It's the definitive podcast about Full Moon Features and b-horror. You will learn a ton about what Full Moon Features is and Jarrod also told me his (possibly) controversial pick for one of his favorite horror directors and the Charles Banfield movie he suggests a newbie watches first.Jarrod's Socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_giallo_jarrod/ Puppet Masters / Castle Freaks IG: https://www.instagram.com/puppetmasters_castlefreaks/ Puppet Masters / Castle Freaks on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1690222864?app=podcast&at=1000lHKX&ct=linktree_http&itscg=30200&itsct=lt_p&ls=1&mt=2 Who's There?

In this episode, I sit down with paranormal investigator, researcher, and author Kate Ray for a conversation that wanders through fear, folklore, and the many strange beings that linger just outside our line of sight.Kate begins by telling me how she stumbled into paranormal investigation almost against her will — starting with a night at St Breville's Castle that absolutely terrified her, but ultimately broke the lifelong fear of ghosts that had held her back. That moment pushed her into Barry Guy's events team, and set her on the path to becoming the investigator she is now. As we talked, she traced how her understanding of the supernatural shifted over the years, shaped by experiences in both her childhood home and a deeply haunted house she lived in throughout the late 90s.We found ourselves comparing notes on haunted properties. Kate spoke about the oppressive atmosphere, strange smells, and constant noises she lived with for years, and I shared some of my own memories and we reflected on how that atmosphere can feel suffocating until, eventually, fear gives way to curiosity.Then the conversation took a fascinating turn. Kate outlined her theory that many poltergeist cases may actually be fairy activity rather than the spirits of the dead. She talked about the electrical nature of fairies, the mischievous, non-human logic that underpins coin drops and strange object movements, and how these behaviours align with centuries of folklore. She's noticed more people reporting this kind of activity, and attributes that partly to her efforts to reintroduce fairy lore to the paranormal community.Kate recounted a chilling case she investigated — a family plagued by rippling walls, frantic footsteps, and coins dropping out of nowhere. She had gone there just to interview them, but ended up witnessing things that are astonishing. Kate shared more of her personal cases, including working as a psychic artist on Help My House Is Haunted. She described remote impressions of a grumpy spirit and dark masses, the moment something grabbed her coat on location, and the uncanny realisation that her sketch matched a photograph of a former homeowner.We finished with the story of her book on the Wollaton Gnomes, the 1979 incident where children encountered hovering gnomes in cars in a deer park. The idea arrived while she was writing for Dr. Simon Young, and the book practically wrote itself within seven days, through what she describes as automatic writing. This episode is a weave of hauntings, folklore, high strangeness, and the strange intelligences that share the world with us — and Kate's insights remind me again and again just how thin the veil really is.Show notes:Kate's instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kateharegirl/?hl=en-gbFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/HareGirlparanormal/Hare in the Hawthorn Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@kateharegirlrayWoolly Snotts: The Curious Case of the Wollaton Gnomes: https://amzn.eu/d/3TUzJ5fSupport the show:https://linktr.ee/darraghmason

A few weeks ago, Preston introduced Todd to his first big screen anime film, "Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle," a movie about warriors trained in magical martial arts taking on demons in a hell-adjacent lair known as the Infinity Castle.Note: The official name of the movie is "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle," but that's a mouthful, so we refer to it by a shorter name. - Just how little did Todd know about the TV show before Preston got Todd to go to the big-screen movie spinoff? In his usual rundown, how much did Todd get wrong? - This movie is divided into three stories. Which ones did the Geeks think were the best, middle, and worst / least good? And, did Preston & Todd agree on that? - Which story of the three was the longest, and was that a good thing or part of the problem? - What storytelling techniques were used in this movie, quite a bit, and was it too much or just enough? - What enthused Preston enough about this movie to go to the movie theater to see it? - With Todd not having seen all the of the TV show and even Preston himself not seeing all of it, was this a satisfying continuation of the TV show? - Was one or more flashbacks having their own flashbacks a step too far for Todd? - What are the motivations of the heroes & villains in this world? - Why are the different elemental & animalistic powers of the demon slayers called "breathing" techniques? - Which character from the TV show did Preston really miss when that character did not appear in the movie? - Which character death surprised & bothered both Geeks? - What redemption arc worked for Preston but not for Todd? - What was Todd's biggest complaint about the movie? - What aspect of the movie involved more utility abilities, rather than fighting, and was it intriguing?Listen now for the answers to these and other breath-taking questions, as Preston & Todd fight their was through the..."Infinity Castle."Please rate or review us wherever you listen to podcasts.

Hi Sleepy. Tonight we drift between a rainy city and old memories of Gothenburg. A frozen Jack staring from the Atlantic, a young acting student walking through a park everyone says is dangerous, a mad man on a tram who never quite becomes as dangerous as he sounds.Somewhere in there is a naked man in the shower screaming “hooray” at a fallen razor, a lifetime of being scared of his own mind, and the strange relief of finally being able to cry again. We visit dream trains that never leave on time, labyrinth hotels, airports that feel like another planet, and the small comfort of a steady ventilation noise when you are trying to fall asleep.You do not have to keep track of any of it. You do not even have to listen. Let me be the background fan while your own stories fade into the dark and you slowly sink into your peaceful night, without having to keep eye contact with anything at all. Sleepy, it is what it is. What happens, happens. And right now, there is nothing we can do.Sleep Tight!More about Henrik, click here: https://linktr.ee/Henrikstahl Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Rediscovering Home: A Christmas Journey in Budapest Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-12-14-23-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Buda Vár fényárban tündökölt a karácsonyi időszak közepén.En: The Buda Vár shone with light in the middle of the Christmas season.Hu: Réka, aki nemrég tért vissza Kolozsvárról, kissé idegenül érezte magát Budapest utcáin.En: Réka, who had recently returned from Kolozsvár, felt a bit like a stranger on the streets of Budapest.Hu: De a szíve mélyén már várta a karácsonyi vásárt.En: But deep in her heart, she was already looking forward to the Christmas market.Hu: Egy meleg kabátban, sálba burkolózva sétált fel a lépcsőkön a Vár felé.En: Wrapped up in a warm coat and scarf, she walked up the steps towards the Castle.Hu: Az orrát csiklandozta a kürtőskalács és a forralt bor illata.En: The smell of kürtőskalács and mulled wine tickled her nose.Hu: Mellette Áron, lelkes kisöccse, egyfolytában beszélt az elkövetkezendő karácsonyi tervekről.En: Beside her, Áron, her enthusiastic little brother, kept talking about the upcoming Christmas plans.Hu: „Nézd, Réka! Ott van a mézeskalácsos bódé!” – Áron szeme csillogott az örömtől.En: "Look, Réka! There's the gingerbread stall!" - Áron's eyes sparkled with joy.Hu: Ő mindig is imádta a karácsonyt és annak minden pillanatát tökéletessé akarta varázsolni idén is.En: He had always loved Christmas and wanted to make every moment perfect again this year.Hu: Péter, az apjuk, komótosan követte őket.En: Péter, their father, was leisurely following them.Hu: Kezében két bögre forralt borral egyensúlyozott.En: He balanced two mugs of mulled wine in his hands.Hu: „Gyere Réka, igyunk egyet!” – kiáltotta mosolyogva.En: "Come Réka, let's have a drink!" he shouted with a smile.Hu: Réka kissé habozva vette át a bögrét, megpróbálta élvezni a pillanatot.En: Réka hesitantly took the mug, trying to enjoy the moment.Hu: De a régi ünnepi szokások mintha már nem passzoltak volna hozzá.En: But the old holiday traditions no longer seemed to fit her.Hu: Azonban nem akart csalódást okozni Áronnak és Péternek.En: However, she didn't want to disappoint Áron and Péter.Hu: Ezért Réka elhatározta, hogy részt vesz minden tevékenységben.En: So Réka decided to participate in every activity.Hu: Segített a kavalkádban díszíteni a vásárlókat, csodálta a szebbnél szebb kézműves dekorációkat, és megkóstolt minden finomságot.En: She helped decorate the shoppers in the hustle and bustle, admired the beautiful handmade decorations, and tasted every delicacy.Hu: Ahogy az esti fények a Duna tükrében ragyogtak, Réka megszorította Áron kezét.En: As the evening lights shone on the Duna's reflection, Réka squeezed Áron's hand.Hu: „Áron, Péter” – kezdte félénken –, „szeretnék beszélni veletek. Úgy érzem, hogy eltávolodtam, de fontos számomra, hogy ismét közel legyek hozzátok.”En: "Áron, Péter" she started shyly, "I feel like I've drifted away, but it's important to me to be close to you again."Hu: Péter figyelmesen hallgatta; tudta, hogy Réka mit érezhet hosszú távolléte után.En: Péter listened attentively; he knew what Réka might feel after her long absence.Hu: „Értjük, kedvesem” – mondta lágyan –, „de tudd, hogy mindig van helyed itthon.”En: "We understand, dear," he said gently, "but know that there is always a place for you at home."Hu: Áron közbeszólt.En: Áron interrupted.Hu: „Réka, hány angol karácsonyi éneket ismersz?En: "Réka, how many English Christmas carols do you know?Hu: Taníts meg néhányat! Talán együtt énekelhetnénk őket a jövőben.”En: Teach me a few! Maybe we could sing them together in the future."Hu: Az éneklés ötlete új lendületet adott Réka szívének.En: The idea of singing brought new momentum to Réka's heart.Hu: Persze, az új dolgok is lehetnek részesei a régi hagyományoknak.En: Sure, new things can also be part of old traditions.Hu: Az est folyamán zengtek a dalok, keveredve a piacon hallható más dalokkal, és Réka érezte, hogy egy meleg, meghitt hangulat uralkodott el.En: Throughout the evening, songs rang out, mixing with other songs heard in the market, and Réka felt a warm, intimate atmosphere take over.Hu: Végül a három alak, Réka, Áron és Péter, együtt álltak a Buda Vár egyik bástyájánál, nézték a hó alatt szunnyadó várost.En: Finally, the three figures, Réka, Áron, and Péter, stood together at one of the bastions of Buda Vár, watching the city slumbering under the snow.Hu: Réka rájött, hogy a hagyományok megújulhatnak, fejlődhetnek.En: Réka realized that traditions can renew and evolve.Hu: És így az utazásai által megtanult dolgok is helyet kaptak a család új ünnepi szokásaiban.En: And thus, the things she had learned through her travels now found a place in the family's new holiday customs.Hu: A Buda Vár csendes, békés kilátása alatt, Réka már nem érezte magát kívülállónak, hanem annak, aki újra megtalálja helyét, mind a családjában, mind szívében.En: Under the quiet, peaceful view of Buda Vár, Réka no longer felt like an outsider, but like someone who had rediscovered her place, both in her family and in her heart.

The Tennant Mission and the Failure of Alliances: Colleague Charles Spicer recounts that in the summer of 1939, Ernest Tennant undertook a final secret mission to Ribbentrop's Austrian castle, confirming that Hitler intended to attack Poland and wage a long war; while London believed this intelligence and pursued a pact with Poland, Chamberlain's deep antipathy toward the Soviets delayed an alliance with Stalin, and Soviet spies leaked these diplomatic moves to Germany, accelerating the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, emphasizing that despite accurate intelligence from the amateur spies, British leadership failed to exploit opportunities. 1938
