A mysterious figure ruling at the fringes of the known world, Prester John might be the most famous person you've never heard of. Like a medieval Carmen Sandiego, Prester John was a man people searched the globe for, from Ethiopia, to Tibet, to the New World, never quite catching up to him in the end. So, who was Prester John and why were medieval people so keen to find him? This week, Danièle speaks with Chris Taylor about where the legend comes from, how it may have had a disastrous effect on the fifth crusade, and what Prester John has to do with the Fantastic Four.Support this podcast on Patreon - go to https://www.patreon.com/medievalists

Production for the episode took place in  in late-2023. It was released on , , and  on 12 April 2025. Reception was mostly postive, with Sethu's characterization particularly praised.

Seventeen years later, on 24 May 2025, Belinda is captured by robots and taken, as their queen, to Missbelindachandra One, a planet orbiting her star. The "Missbelindachandrakind" are composed of humanoids and robots, who coexisted peacefully until the latter took control and some humans began to rebel. The robots are controlled by the Great  Generator, who plans to merge with Belinda. On their spaceship, Belinda blames Alan for registering the star, as it flies through a time fracture. , who had been in pursuit, is sent backward six months, and by the time Belinda arrives, he has become the historian. Exploiting a fault that prevents the robots from hearing every ninth word, the Doctor and the rebels rescue Belinda. The Doctor realises that the robots possess a certificate identical to Belinda's, and have had it for over 5000 years. He concludes that this is related to the time fracture. Belinda allows herself to be captured, asking the robots to spare the rebels. Belinda and the Doctor are taken to the Great AI Generator. They discover that it is not "AI" but "AL", short for Alan. After Belinda had blamed Alan, the robots used the time fracture to capture him ten years earlier in 2015. Seeing life on Missbelindachandra as a game, Alan merged himself with the machines and started the war. Using every ninth word, Alan communicates to them that he is in pain. Belinda touches her copy of the certificate to Alan's, causing them to experience all of time simultaneously. The Doctor rescues Belinda, while Alan reverts to a sperm and egg, which is cleaned up by a robot. Now free, the humanoids and robots rebuild their society, while the Doctor takes Belinda to his . He describes meeting her distant descendant Mundy Flynn and wants to know how the robots acquired the certificate, but Belinda, disturbed at his insistence that their encounter is "destiny" and refusing to be one of his adventures, demands to be taken home. The TARDIS is unable to return to 24 May 2025, instead bouncing off that date. The Doctor tells Belinda that they will need to take the long way around. As the TARDIS dematerialises, debris from several Earth landmarks and the certificate float in space.

The polish robot that appears in the episode was designed with a similar 1950s aesthetic, primarily being based on cars of the time period. The robot had unique wheels that allowed it to move laterally as well as straight ahead, as the designers wanted the robot to have a unique range of motion compared to other robots of similar size. The AI Generator was similarly designed to appear large and imposing, with the set and art design teams collaborating to determine where the presence of Alan would be inside of the machine. The set for the throne room, where Belinda is initially brought in the episode, is re-used for the AI Generator's room. The design team placed the "head" of the Generator's design just below the room's centerpiece in order to create the illusion that the room acted like a crown for the Generator and that the room is an extension of him.

This week, Kate Molleson navigates us through his many personal and professional struggles, and follows Mahler to the countryside hideaways where he sought (not always successfully) to escape the drama of his everyday life. Here, among the lakes and mountains, Mahler also found space to compose and he poured the whole world into his music in all its ugliness, mundanity and transcendent beauty.Music Featured:Symphony No 3 (excerpts) Symphony No 1 (excerpts) Symphony No 2 (excerpts) by Bernard Haitink Des Knaben Wunderhorn (Lob des hohen Verstandes) Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen Symphony No 4 (excerpts) Symphony No 5 (excerpts) Symphony No 6 (excerpts) Symphony No 7 (excerpts) Kindertotenlieder (No 3, Wenn dein Mütterlein) Symphony No 8 "Symphony of a Thousand" (excerpts) Das Lied von der Erde (No 2, Der Einsame in Herbst) Symphony No 9 (excerpts) Das Lied von der Erde (No 4, Von der Schonheit) Symphony No 10 (ed.

In this emotionally charged episode of Born to Watch, the team marches into the searing heat and moral quagmire of Oliver Stone's Platoon (1986), a film that's arguably the definitive Vietnam War movie of its era. Whitey, G-Man, and the V8 Interrupter Dan revisit the battlefield with a mix of reverence, nostalgia, and hard truths, dissecting the film's impact, legacy, and the deep emotional chord it struck back in the day—and still does today.Kicking off with stories of their first encounters with Platoon, the guys quickly descend into one of their most layered and personal discussions to date. Whitey recalls being told by his dad he wasn't allowed to watch the film—despite already seeing Apocalypse Now and Mad Max at age six. That rebellious spark only deepened his bond with the movie once he finally got his hands on it as a teen. Dan admits to cheating on the crew, watching Platoon with his war-obsessed neighbours back in the ‘80s, completely unaware at the time of the deeper commentary Stone was laying down. For G-Man, Platoon was a rite of passage during his VHS-rented youth, watched on loop like a war-soaked mixtape.But the nostalgia is tempered with fresh eyes. This time around, Platoon hits different. What once felt like badass war action now reveals itself as a gut-punching meditation on morality, survival, and the breakdown of innocence. The guys explore the duality of the film's core—the Elias vs. Barnes dichotomy—representing each soldier's internal war. It's not just America vs. the Viet Cong; it's soul vs. savagery, duty vs. darkness.The cast? Stacked. And not just with stars—but future legends. Tom Berenger and Willem Dafoe snagged Oscar nods for roles that flipped their usual screen personas. Charlie Sheen's Chris Taylor acts as the audience's moral compass, thrust into a world of chaos with no road map. And in the wings, you catch early glimpses of Johnny Depp, Forest Whitaker, Kevin Dillon, and even a scene-stealing John C. McGinley. The Born to Watch crew marvel at the rawness and authenticity that pulses through every frame—helped in no small part by the film's unique decision to shoot in sequence, letting the emotional weight build naturally.And then there's the man behind the camera: Oliver Stone. A real-life Vietnam vet, Stone channelled his firsthand experience into a script that didn't just depict war—it unpacked it, exposed it, and dared to say that sometimes, the worst of humanity wears your own uniform. The pod digs into how Stone's commitment to realism (aided by military advisor Dale Dye, another vet) shaped everything from the dialogue to the weight of each bullet fired.There's the usual Born to Watch flavor too—G-Man's got the box office and awards rundown (hello, Best Picture and Best Director at the ‘87 Oscars), while Dan goes on a bandana-fueled tangent and questions whether Lieutenant Wolfe might be cinema's most inept officer. Whitey can't resist diving into the musical legacy, from that haunting Samuel Barber theme to how the soundtrack now echoes the trauma and tragedy of a generation.Of course, it wouldn't be Born to Watch without Listen to This, Voicemail Roulette (shoutout to “Will the Worky”), and the always-fun “Hit, Sleeper, Dud” segment, where Heartbreak Ridge, Extreme Prejudice, and King Kong Lives get their moment in the spotlight—or the firing line.By the end, the question looms large: Platoon or Apocalypse Now? Each host makes their case in what might be the pod's most respectful debate yet. As G-Man puts it, Platoon is about the war within, while Apocalypse Now is a descent into madness. Either way, both films leave an indelible mark—and so does this episode.So strap in, pop smoke, and join the squad as Born to Watch heads into the heart of darkness with Platoon. This one's for the grunts, the film buffs, and anyone who ever got lost in the jungle of morality and memory.
