We're back to shout about one of our favorite things to shout about: Outlander! We're sharing the things we loved, hated, and loved to hate about Outlander Season 6 (MARK ME, we loved more things than we hated?). From the season that brought us such metaphors as THE-STORM-THE-WAR, we were also given gifts like the Benjamin Moore Outlander collection, throuple plots, justice for Fergus, and Matthew B Roberts' PR exit. Did we need season 6? No. Are were here now? Yes. So pour yourself a giant G&T and enjoy recapping with us!

Well, this was a tough one, folks... We spend the first quarter of this episode explaining a loss we've experienced on and off the podcast and why one of us is no longer with us. With no super-smooth transition possible after that, we do try to carry on with our usual geeky topics... - What TV shows have we been watching lately, including Marvel & DC related shows? - Which co-host is watching the Critical Role cartoon "Vox Machina"? - What do Dave & Todd think about the current season of "Outlander"? (A couple more episodes have come out since we recorded this episode; Todd is impressed.) - How many current & recent big-screen movie releases has Dave caught up on lately, and what did he think of them all? - What YouTube channels does Todd recommend? - What is the TV show "Lore" all about? - What do we think about the whole Oscars/Smith/Rock/Slap incident, and does one of us think it might have been staged? - What accent does Todd need to improve on for his new D&D character? - What kind of characters are Andruw & Preston playing in the new D&D campaign? - And, what's the current news with "Babylon 5," "Stargate," and "The Orville." Listen now, for the answers to these and other poignant questions. SPECIAL THANKS to the "Katrina & Friends" YouTube channel and specifically Daniel Beachy, Dave Miller, and David Fisher, for their moving cover of the gospel song "Angel Band," and for giving us permission to use the song in this episode (at the very end) for a very special reason. Check out the video of their performance of the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktthBzyJ_rY Also, my sincerest apologies for the bad audio on my (Todd's) track. Somehow I didn't notice that the built-in microphone on my laptop was inadvertently set as the input instead of my podcasting microphone. Of all the episodes to make that mistake on, this was the worst one for me to do that on. I wish I could go back and time, but sadly, I'm not Marty McFly from "Back to the Future" or Claire Fraser from "Outlander."

"Burgwin-Wright Presents... Outlander in the Cape Fear" explores the history of Colonial North Carolina through its depiction in the book and TV series "Outlander." On this week's episode, we take a trip to New Bern to get a peek at life of Royal Governor William Tryon, a complicated man who granted Jamie and Claire Fraser a new chapter in North Carolina in 1767. In real life, he was a controversial governor who stirred tensions in the colony on the eve of the American Revolution and built himself a palace that nearly ignited an early start to the war. This week's guest is Susan Griffin, a historical interpreter for Tryon Palace in New Bern and the co-creator of the state historic site's "Outlander"-themed tour. Learn more about Tryon Palace at TryonPalace.org. This podcast is produced by Burgwin-Wright House and Gardens, Wilmington's largest and oldest historic site.

Outlander Season 6 is finally here! Join us for our preview of the season, a little time travel, and our thoughts on the season premiere. While we can count the never-ending cold open among the things we lost in France, we've got some positives in there too, like Emmy-worthy crazy eyes acting and what promises to be our drinking game this season, sniffing out the essence of Tequila Sam wherever we can (10/10 would purchase that fragrance???). Anyway, we're happy to be back on the Ridge, even if there's glass in the windows.

Ever wanted to make a shawl or a capelet that makes you feel like Claire Fraser, blazing your way through a male-dominated world with passion and tenacity?

Welcome back to our review of Outlander; if you missed our earlier episode go back and listen to Part 1 which covers seasons 1-3. Barb and Sam draw to a conclusion regarding Brianna's rightful accent, our disdain for Roger and penicillin. Also, how is it fair that Jamie ages with a pair of spectacles and they go full granny with Claire? We call for justice! Additionally we discuss a few fan theories regarding  time travel, Jamie's ominous ghost from season 1, and our predictions (and anticipations) for season 6. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/fireandwinepodcast)

Highlights include:We debate the specifics of demonic possession, and attempt to discuss English and Scottish history of the 18th century and realize we actually don't know anything. We also debate if Jamie making out with Laoghaire was the equivalent of guys posting selfies with a random girl to make their crush jealous.

Today, we can’t stop watching Caitriona Balfe, who plays Claire Fraser in the Starz drama series “Outlander.” Balfe talks about the dramatic finale of Season 5, the moment Claire saves Jamie’s life and what it’s like to be a producer, not just an actor, on the show.

Welcome to our slightly delayed review of Outlander, season 5! We've got highs, we've got lows, and we've got petty thoughts. But that's not all, folks. We channeled the spirit of Outlander with this unwieldy 1:40 minute episode, which means we also had time for Mustache Moments™️, Jamie Fraser's Big Hagrid Energy, and wild speculation about the future of this series! If you don't care about Kirstie & Kelsey's Kuarantine Korner (rude), feel free to skip ahead to minute 8 to jump into Outlander talk.

Jamie Fraser is The King of men walking the razor's edge of loyalty, honor, and oaths between the Crown and his people.  Murtagh Fitzgibbons has become a man of blood while stirring the Regulators to violence and rage.  Claire Fraser is a frustrated 20th-century physician feeling stuck in the ways of the 18th.  Roger Wakefield MacKenzie is feeling inadequate and cannot seem to find a useful place in the 18th-century. He wants to go home to the 20th-century. Brianna Randall Fraser MacKenzie is struggling with trauma and desiring to stay near family in the 18th-century.  Marsali Fraser is caught between two mothers and curiosity.  Stephen Bonnet believes he is a father and wants what's his. 

Ep 15 Dr Claire Fraser Mapping the Microbiome    The mapping of the human genome was a fearless plunge into groundbreaking science. Dr Fraser says, as a scientist, she had to take risks that allowed her to answer the questions she was asking in molecular biology, at the time a nascent field. She dared to fail at a time when that was still an option.   Her PhD and her early work at NIH was focused on G-protein coupled receptors and that lead to exploring the receptors at a fundamental molecular level. She asked how do you discover new members of this protein family and that question led her to an intersection of disciplines, such as automated DNA sequencing which ultimately put her in line to map the human genome.   In this episode of Careers That Matter, Dr Claire Fraser walks us through her remarkable career.

Ep 268 Guest: Dr Claire Fraser You Are Not Alone   Your body has been colonized by bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses and microbes. There are so many of them that you amount for about half of you and the other half are all of the other bits of organic life that like to call you home. They are known as the microbiome and they possess 200 times more genes than you do.   Think of a part of your body and that’s where you’ll find microbes and bacteria and nowhere more so than in your gastrointestinal tract. Most of them live in perfect harmony with you when your body functions the way it was designed to work. When something goes awry... well, that’s when everything gets knocked off kilter and you can get sick, really sick.   Antibiotics that are designed to treat disease and infection also kill off enormous amounts of microbes and set up an environment that can and often leads to C-Diff, or C. difficile, which causes diarrhea and colitis.   Understanding the complex interplay between microbes, bacteria and the myriad fungi and protozoa in your GI is underway. One of the key elements in establishing a baseline in the on-going research has been the mapping of the human microbiome.      Recently, Dr Claire Fraser, a leader in genomics who played a lead role in mapping the human genome, who used genomics to identify the source of the deadly 2001 anthrax attacks, has been instrumental in the NIH mapping of the microbiome project and is Genome BC’s 2019 Don Rix Distinguished Keynote speaker. She joined us for a Conversation That Matters about you, the organisms you are host to and your relationship with them.    Conversations That Matter is a partner program for the Morris J Wosk Center for Dialogue at Simon Fraser University.

Like the mustache on a young hero's face or the thunder in one's pants, we have arrived once again at the end of another season of Outlander. Join us as we trade our gloats and gripes for the season and try to come to terms with challenging ideas such as actual human emotions, facial expressions, drawing, and sad tent sex. Joy was sparked, rage was raged, and the Strong Sexual Content was the Actually Just Normal Feelings We Felt About Sam Heughan's Face along the way.

With this podcast episode, "Their Course is Set", we delve into the brand-new novella by Diana Gabaldon, A Fugitive Green. It is one of seven novellas within the recently released Seven Stones to Stand or Fall. This novella features the stories of Minerva Wattiswade aka Minnie Rennie and Harold "Hal" Grey, Lord Melton/Duke of Pardloe, and how they came to be the dynamic and fascinating long wed couple we meet in the Outlander series and other novellas. I hope you enjoy the six to eight-part podcast series.  Minnie Rennie, daughter of book and information dealer Andrew Rennie, finds herself going to London alone in the spring of 1744. She is there to do work for her father, find her mother whom she's never met, and make social connections.  Due to her unconventional upbringing, she's a worldly, savvy, clever, and self-assured young woman of 17-years. She's been working in her father's business her whole life. She's never met her mother. Our Claire also had an unconventional upbringing after the death of her parents. This seems to be a building block for strong and culturally challenging women. London is not a safe place for a single young woman. Her father has set-up two bodyguards (the O'Higgins'), and a safe place to stay. He's also arranged for a marriage broker to get her in to society and find her a proper Englishman to wed. This was a surprise to Minnie and she is impressed by her father's trap. Attribution 1 Hal on the other hand is an absolute mess. His life is in turmoil after the death of his wife Esme and child during a too early labor, he kills Nathaniel Twelvetrees in a duel for having an affair with his wife Esme, and the continuing shadow left from his father's suicide on the eve of being arrested for being a Jacobite and traitor to the Crown. Hal is in his early twenties, but he's lived a lifetime already. He's emotionally fragile and physically unwell. He's also the target of a job meant for Minnie.  This takes place during Dragonfly in Amber when Jamie and Claire Fraser are in Paris post Wentworth and pre-Jacobite uprising. We meet some familair and new characters along the way.  Attribution 2 Here are the links I promised for what I found extra interesting within the pages of these first chapters. Madagascar hissing cockroaches - Frederick the roach presumable for the Bonnie Prince to give to Louise his mistress. Culpeper's Herbal - in some form this has been in print since 1653 Persian Letters - the book Jamie purchased from Andrew Rennie Collected Sermons of the Reverend George V. Sykes - it is a real book, written by Diana Gabaldon's great-great grandfather.   What's Coming up? The Fugitive Green chapters 4-6, from Seven Stones to Stand or Fall collection. How can you participate? To have your questions, comments for the regular read along, email or call in to the listener line 3 days prior to airing for inclusion.
