POPULARITY
THE TEN MINUTE FORTNIGHT: Andy puzzles over a forgotten childhood poster, and Toby applauds Wisden taking the gloves off. "Mind you he wasn't massive, so you could probably print him on A3." FROM THE ARCHIVES (09'20): Stump Cricket, or Podex "At its core this is an issue with the length of time you spent pulling out tree roots." THE REVIEW (19'00): Godfrey Evans: A Biography by Christopher Sandford (1990) "After getting hit by a car, Evans gets up, shrugs it off and walks off. And I thought 'this is a book I need to read.'" Recorded 28 April 2025
Renowned mystery author Arthur Conan Doyle and famous illusionist Harry Houdini first met in 1920, during the magician's tour of England. At the time, Conan Doyle had given up his lucrative writing career, killing off Sherlock Holmes in the process, in order to concentrate on his increasingly manic interest in Spiritualism. Houdini, who regularly conducted séances in an attempt to reach his late mother, was also infatuated with the idea of what he called a "living afterlife," though his enthusiasm came to be tempered by his ability to expose fraudulent mediums, many of whom employed crude variations of his own well-known illusions. Using previously unpublished material on the murky relationship between Houdini and Conan Doyle, this sometimes macabre, sometimes comic tale tells the fascinating story of the relationship between two of the most loved figures of the 20th century and their pursuit of magic and lost loved ones. Hosted by Dr. Zohara Hieronimus. Produced by Hieronimus & Co. for 21st Century Radio®. Edited version provided to Nightlight Radio with permission.

Episode 1: Golden SlumbersIn our first chapter in this podcast series, we explore the creation story that surrounds the song Golden Slumbers, which is found on the second side of the Abbey Road album. In our discovery process, we find ourselves traveling back in time – of all things!Indeed, we need to go back, some 400 – 650 years, to discover the genesis of the lyrics to this song on the Abbey Road album.You might exclaim; 400 – 650 years!? Really?Well, here's a heck of a question for you. What is the connection of ALL of the following, to Paul McCartney's song, Golden Slumbers? A poem written by Thomas Dekker in the year 1599 AD Canterbury Tales , finished by Chaucer in 1400 AD The Decameron, written by Giovanni Boccaccio, who died in 1375 AD the Black Death, in Tuscany, in the 1300's the Covid-19 crisis today (as of the publishing of this podcast episode)? Find out by listening to Chapter 1 of this podcast series celebrating the life and music of Paul McCartney. The answer will surprise you. And what is more, in this discovery journey, we explore how it was that Paul knew how to construct the underlying chord progressions for this song and why they move us so. Believe it or not, the answer to this question can be found in the songs, Twist and Shout and She Came in Through the Bathroom Window.To boot, we finish the first podcast in this series with an introduction to another creation story – this time for the song, Eleanor Rigby. In this exploration, we discover the connections of Eleanor Rigby to these songs: “Ferry ‘Cross the Mersey” (remember Gerry and the Pacemakers?), and “Mellow Yellow”, Donovan's best-selling pop hit.

“it would be a great pleasure” [SIGN] Acclaimed biographer Christopher Sandford joins us to discuss his book . But this isn't a biography. As Sandford explained, there was a perpetual itch that Conan Doyle had to scratch, and his writing wasn't enough to satisfy it. How did his lifelong crusade pan out? Why did he embrace spiritualism so fervently when he also valued the scientific method? How did he feel about the dissolution of his friendship with Harry Houdini? We discover the answers to these questions and more in our conversation with Chris, as well as the gothic setting of his own childhood, which was eerily similar to Conan Doyle's—and, how a cricket match led to him writing Mick Jagger's biography.
