Our primary source this month comes from the 12th century English chronicler, Roger of Hoveden (Howden). This excerpt was chosen as it references a number of castles that dotted the Cypriot landscape during Richard the Lionheart's campaign. You'll hear him refer to Buffavent (Buffavento), Kantara, Dieu D'Amour (a possible corruption of the Greek name, Didymus -- now St. Hilarion) and an unknown castle in Nicosia called Cherin. Its significance is that the castles predate Richard's conquest (i.e., they are Byzantine structures) and serves as a nice segue into my interview next month with Dr. James Petre on the Castles of Cyprus!
Bards of the Board is back with a deep dive into one of the most beloved eurogames of all time — Castles of Burgundy! In this episode, we explore what makes Stefan Feld's classic stand the test of time, from its dice-driven strategy to the endless ways to score points. We'll share our favorite strategies, talk about how it plays across different player counts, and debate whether the latest editions improve on the original.Whether you're new to Castles of Burgundy or have played it hundreds of times, you'll find fresh insights, honest opinions, and maybe even a few bard-worthy tangents along the way.

Foundations of Amateur Radio Every single radio amateur has come to this hobby with an itch to scratch. Time and again I've seen amateurs around me pursue that particular purpose, only to come out the other end with a look of bewilderment writ large across their face. For some amateurs it means the end of their involvement in the hobby, for others it starts a new journey into the unknown. One of the ways we explore our community is by travelling out of our shack into the big outdoors in whatever form that takes. Popular activities include setting up a radio in a location and talking to others, known colloquially as an "activation". We do this all over the planet. Perhaps the most recognisable of these is IOTA, or Islands On The Air, where a station is erected on an island and contacts are made. As amateurs we cannot help ourselves and seem to have an insatiable need to measure our prowess. We do this by counting how many contacts, callsigns, countries, grid-squares, or in this case, islands, we've managed to put in the log. If an island represents a new callsign, a new country, and a new grid-square, the contact making will turn into a feeding frenzy that can last for days, especially if the station offers multiple bands and modes, making the effort all the more tempting. We don't stop with islands. Summits, with Summits On The Air or SOTA are popular, as are Parks, POTA, and even over a weekend, the International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend, or ILLW. Some of these activations follow rules set out by amateurs like you and I, who thought it would be fun to track such activations and encourage others to participate. For example IOTA World publishes a four page document outlining what's required for those on the island, activators, and those trying to make contact, or chasers. This raises an important point. Rules require documentation, which leads to discussion and disagreement, and versions. I can show you two versions of the IOTA World rules, neither is dated, of course both are different, so if you're going to publish rules, make sure you add a date or version, preferably both, to the rules document. Disagreements aside, sometimes there are multiple programs with the same name or aims. Two groups came up with the same idea and didn't know about each other, or, a group in a different country wanted to run the show in a different way and a new group was formed. I'm mentioning this because sometimes these groups are antagonistic towards each other and have forgotten that the whole point of this is to have fun. So, what else can we activate? Well, there's Castles and Stately Homes, Bunkers, Beaches, Museums, Walmart Parking Lots and even Toilets On The Air, mind you, Slow Scan Television, or SSTV is discouraged as a mode. The other day the power was off for maintenance in my street and I planned on escaping to the local library, which caused me to search for libraries across Perth. It seems there's pretty much one in every suburb and I considered the notion of activating a library or three, comes with easy access to public transport, a car park, and even toilet facilities, what's not to like? I wondered what might be a suitable exchange so it could incorporate the library itself, promoting amateur radio and libraries, two birds and all. I made a comment on mastodon.radio and it turns out that Frank K4FMH beat me to it, several years ago. Libraries On The Air, or LiOTA. I've been hunting for a dataset of libraries in Australia to give to Frank, but it's been slim pickings, despite there being over 10,000 of them, apparently around 10% of those public. It raises another question, is there a directory of activation types anywhere? I couldn't find one, so I started a list on my GitHub repository. Feel free to add any I missed. Toilet jokes aside, consider that TOTA is being held during the annual Hackers On Planet Earth conference and it will introduce new people to our amateur community, which ultimately might be the best reason to have fun, get on-air and make noise.

As summer continues to cut a rug through to August, we talk tourist sites, and three in particular: Neuschwanstein, Herrenchiemsee and Linderhof. Why these three? For the simple reason that they are the three newest German UNESCO World Heritage sites. Are they worthy entrants, and what does this have to do with the Great Wall of China? We find out.Summer also means school holidays, but it wouldn't be German school holidays without a little bit of complaining. What's boiling people's blood? The most obvious of German annoyances, Bavaria. Yes, Bavaria, who along with their southern neighbours Baden-Württemberg, are refusing to move their summer holidays with their fellow Bundesländer. We question the Bavarian belligerence, but wonder if they might have a point after all.We finish off with another listener question…well sort of…not directly, but it does give Nic and Producer Simon a chance to have their favourite argument: Tanks vs Castles!!!!Theme tune courtesy of Kloß mit Soß

They're in the books we read, the shows we watch, and the art we hang on our walls. They conjure notions of might, magic, romance, and more. Castles, perhaps as much as any other architectural structure in history, define the landscape of our fantasy and imagination. But is our imagination an accurate lens through which to view these fortresses of ol'? And why, after hundreds of years, does our culture's fascination with these structures seem to be on the rise? This hour, we speak with experts and enthusiasts about the reality and mystique of castles. GUESTS: Marc Morris: Medieval historian and author of books including Castles: Their History and Evolution in Medieval Britain Victor Lodato: Playwright, poet, and novelist whose books include Edgar and Lucy Edward Town: Assistant Curator of Paintings and Sculpture at the Yale Center for British Art Brent Bruns II: - Star of the hit National Geographic reality TV show "Doomsday Castle" The Colin McEnroe Show is available as a podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, TuneIn, Listen Notes, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Episode 292: Lori returns from her unforgettable trip to Scotland and Ireland—packed with castles, cobblestone streets, walking tours, pub chats, and even an ancient gospel manuscript. She and Vonda reflect on the joy of cultural exploration, the value of unplugging, and the unexpected tug of floral FOMO, even when you're surrounded by highland cows and Guinness.Back stateside, Vonda shares behind-the-scenes lessons from AIFD Symposium and what it means to lead with intentionality, observation, and personal invitation. Together, they dive into how volunteering, mentoring, and simply asking someone to step up can change everything—at work, in community, and beyond.Whether you're a flower pro, a traveler at heart, or someone who believes in learning from every experience—this episode reminds you how powerful it is to stay curious, stay connected, and say yes to new opportunities.Sponsored by: Flower CliqueFlower Clique Prep SchoolReal Life Retail Florist

Hello, hello, and welcome back to Spanish Loops! Your weekly journey into the heart of Spain's living culture! And this week we're going high… literally! Today, we are heading to Catalonia to explore one of the most breath taking, gravity defying traditions in all of Spain: Los Castellers. These human towers, real people climbing on top of each other up to ten stories high, have been rising into the skies of Catalonia for over two centuries. And believe us, they are so much more than just a show.We will dig into the history of this daring practice, tracing it all the way back to the 18th century. We'll talk about the colles castelleres, the passionate local teams who train year around, the deep sense of community and trust, and of course what it feels like to be at the top of a human tower with thousandscheering you on.That is why the Castellers have become a UNESCO recognized tradition, and why, even today, these towers symbolize unity, strength, and balance in every sense of the word.So, buckle up, stay grounded, and get ready to look up… way up. This is Spanish Loops, and we are climbing into Catalonia's cultural heartbeat… one tier at a time.Do not forget to subscribe and share!!

Think America doesn't have castles? Think again. In this episode, we tour the strangest fortresses in the U.S. — from a Gilded Age mega-mansion with its own zip code, to a Texas castle built by a baker, to a Chicago hotel designed by a serial killer. You'll get heartbreak, egomania, imported ceilings, wine cellars, and one truly medieval waterpark.These aren't castles built for kings — they're built for love, for ghosts, and for pure American delusion.____________________________________S03 Ep117____________________________________Connect with us on social media: Instagram: @unscaledtravelshowTwitter: @fullmetaltravlrFacebook: @fullmetaltravelerWebsite: https://www.unscaledtravelshow.com/

TCW Podcast Episode 237 - Jordan Mechner and Price of Persia We continue our look at Jordan Mechner with the development of Prince of Persia. Its cinematic inspirations include Castles of Dr. Creep, the opening of Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the 1938 Robin Hood. To animate the prince, Mechner filmed his brother performing stunts, then manually painted key frames, painting his brother white and the background black to make the footage compatible with a limited digitizer. Memory constraints forced creative solutions, like XORing the prince and bit shifting him to create Shadow Man. A promising film project delayed the game's release, but Prince of Persia launched on the Apple II with groundbreaking animation. A strong Macintosh port and renewed interest following Disney's Aladdin helped turn the game into a hit across the early 1990s.

In today's episode we will talk about the Imperative mood in Greek. Emily and Danai will first engage in a dialogue with suggestions of what to do in Thessaloniki and then explain the use of the Imperative mood.D: Emily, I want to visit Thessaloniki! What do you suggest I do there?E: Oh, perfect! You'll have an amazing time! First of all, take a walk along the beach to see the White Tower up close and climb all the way to the top. The view is incredible!D:I already love this idea! Where else should I go?E: Go to the Upper Town and the Castles. There, you'll see the Heptapyrgion, and of course, the view of the entire city from above. Also, visit the Hagia Sophia, the Rotunda, and the Church of Saint Demetrius—they're among the most historic churches in the city.D:I probably won't be able to do all of this in one day, right?Ε:Most likely not. It's better to plan on needing two to three days to see all of that, plus maybe visit a museum, like the Archaeological or Byzantine Museum, which are both in the city center.D: Alright then. What about food? What should I try?E: Well, definitely take a walk around Ladadika for lunch, and also go there in the evening for drinks. Of course, after that, for dessert, you should try "trigona Panorama," and for breakfast, at least once, have bougatsa with cream.D: Wow! Everything sounds delicious! There's no way I'm not trying "trigona"! Everyone's telling me about them!Ε: They're definitely amazing! But there are also lots of other syrupy sweets to try.D: Got it… I'm going for gastronomic tourism! Ε: Yes! And don't forget to walk around Aristotelous Square and have a freddo.D: Of course, I can't wait for a proper freddo espresso!Ε: You have to!D: It looks like I'll need to write all this down so I don't forget!Ε: Good idea! Make a list for each day so you can manage to see and do everything!D: I think I'll really like Thessaloniki because there's so much to see and do!Ε: Exactly!

For more than 400 years, Irish warfare was dominated by the Galloglass, elite Norse-Gael mercenary warriors who reshaped battles with their two-handed sparth axes and claymores. Why did Gaelic chieftains and Norman lords alike rely on these foreign fighters? And what drove the Galloglass to fight with such ferocity that English observers would later write, "When they strike they inflict a dreadful wound"?To find out more, Matt Lewis is joined by Fergus Cannan-Braniff, a descendant of Rob Roy MacGregor and Robert the Bruce, and author of Galloglass 1250-1600: Gaelic Mercenary Warrior.MORECastles and the Conquest of Irelandhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/4mQSY11BBAru3Q3tDQgXWAMedieval Ireland: Death & Politicshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/3sGKfux9jioLnvOUcydbovGone Medieval is presented by Matt Lewis and edited by Amy Haddow.

In the 1920's and 30s, shark attacks off the coast of New South Wales, Australia were not an especially uncommon event. In 1935, however, Sydney's peaceful coastal charm was shattered by a grotesque discovery at the Coogee Aquarium that was anything but normal. A captured tiger shark, put on public display, vomited up a human arm—severed, tattooed, and unmistakably out of place. What began as a curiosity quickly spiraled into a chilling murder mystery involving gangsters, betrayal, and a body that was never found. SOURCES Roope, Phillip & Meagher, Kevin (2020) Shark Arm.
