Sometimes you just need a book that feels like a warm hug, right? Candice L Davis joins me for a Fiction Pop-Up where we chat about our go-to comfort reads - the books we reach for when the world feels a bit much. Candice tells me about her love of Stephen King + Toni Morrison, while I confess to my low-key obsession with cosy crime. Give me a murder in a charming village with characters I'd happily take tea with + I'll read straight through whatever virus has me in its grip, and emerge not only healthy but weirdly informed on little known poisons. We discuss what actually makes a book comforting + why sometimes you just want to disappear into someone else's world for a while.

One blond scary child sometimes isn't enough! Writer John Wyndham published The Midwich Cuckoos in 1957 which had already sold to MGM before he'd completed it. The film tells the story of a different kind of alien invasion. Midwich village is infested with pregnancies affecting the female population who all give birth to blonde haired and light eyed, rapidly growing, telepathic children (did I mention they were creepy?). Outsiders who will go to any length to keep their kind alive. I have two absolutely amazing guests who can tease apart some of the history and themes of this wonderful sci-fi horror.  Mark Bould is a professor of Film and Literature at the University of West England, Bristol. He has written/edited extensively about science fiction cinema. Roger Luckhurst is a Professor at Birkbeck, University of London. He has written/edited numerous articles and books on cultural history and film.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:38 John Wyndham, The Midwich Cuckoos and MGM's British studios 04:22 Post War anxieties 07:10 Wyndham and pacifism 08:29 Feminism, forced birth and Wyndham's women 11:16 The life of George Sanders: a fabulous cad 18:50 The Cosy Catastrophe 21:38 The premise: terrifying telepathic toddlers 27:20 The evil child and the concept of innocence 31:42 The legacy of the evil child in cinema 35:59 Telepathy 41:47 Class and post war social mobility 47:25 Legacy and the John Carpenter remake 51:29 Recommendations for the listener   The telepathic couple Mark mentions are most likely the Piddingtons. When Mark says "Astounding" he is referring to the magazine Astounding Science Fiction where the editor was John W Campbell Jr. NEXT EPISODE! Next episode we will be talking about The Day the Earth Caught Fire from 1961. You can rent the film on Apple or Amazon in the US or on Amazon or BFI Player in the UK.

Odcinek #217, w którym z Karoliną Morawiecka idziemy na spacer do jednego z krakowskich parków.Rozmawiamy o powieści „Potrójny blef”. „Zaczyna się tak, jak powinien zaczynać się kryminał. Jest mięso”- zaczyna rozmowę autorka. Dopytuję dlaczego J jak jedzenie jest ważne w tej opowieści i czy Konstancja T jak Tatarewiczówna mogłaby być wnuczką T jak Tatarkiewicza. Uciekamy razem z bohaterką przed społecznymi K jak konwenansami i wpadamy na Ś jak śledczego: Ewarysta Grzebinogę. Karolina przyznaje, ze sięgnęła po B jak bohaterów, o których dziś nikt nie pamięta. Trafiamy do P jak pensjonatu na Pieskowej Skale i wpadamy w C jak czas przeszły- do dwudziestolecia międzywojennego. Jest Z jak zbrodniarz, J jak jadłospis, H jak hrabina, K jak kalki z Agathy Christie i różne rodzaje B jak blefów. Jest też  W jak Witkacy, H jak hucuł w klozecie. I jest powiedzenie Piłsudskiego: „pierdel, serdel, burdel”. Razem z Konstancją sięgamy po książkę, która nas bulwersuje i próbujemy uwolnić się z G jak gorsetu. Okazuje się, że więcej W jak wolności mają S jak służące chłopki. Wracamy do P jak pisania Karoliny. Dopytuję, jak pisząc R jak retro kryminał nie upupić się językowo. Pojawiają się nagle dwa Z jak zeszyty pomysłów i podstawowa Z jak zasada: w porze obiadu się nie zabija.

Sven Lorig umgibt sich gerne mit Frauen: Mit seiner eigenen, vier Töchtern, einer Hündin namens Cosy und jetzt auch noch mit diversen Hühnern! Ein Hahn kommt ihm aber nicht ins Haus! Wobei, vielleicht würde er dann mal zu Wort kommen! Zuhause muss er sich die Redezeit nämlich hart erkämpfen, das sieht im ARD-Morgenmagazin anders aus. Dort moderiert er schon eine halbe Ewigkeit, seit über 20 Jahren! Seine neue Hündin Cosy durfte bislang nicht mit ins Studio. 15 Jahre lang war ein Hund aus dem Tierschutz ein zusätzliches Familienmitglied, nun ist es die Kromfohrländer-Dame, die gerne ins Bett möchte, aber striktes Bett- und Sofaverbot hat! Da ist Sven streng! Und wenn er nicht gerade mit Cosy trainiert, oder im Hühnerstall sitzt, um zu entspannen, zieht es ihn immer noch gerne mit seiner Frau aufs Tanzparkett! Ob er bei der RTL-Show „Lets dance!“ mitmachen würde, warum er manchmal im Keller schläft, wie oft er sich mit seiner Frau streitet und wie geduldig er ist, verrät der Journalist in dieser Folge. Außerdem plaudert er darüber, warum ihn Hühner so begeistern, warum er eine Weile mit Leine, aber ohne Hund spazieren gegangen ist, und ob er selbst ein gutes Rudeltier ist. Zum Nachlesen findet Ihr Sven & Cosy auch in unserem neuen Buch: "Prominente Schnauzen - Von Stars, ihren Vierbeinern und besonderen Momenten", Callwey-Verlag Autoren: Jule Gölsdorf Christine Langner Instagram: @julegoelsdorf @christine_langner @sven.lorig

Do you dream of a love that feels warm, secure, and deeply caring—one that's rooted in loyalty, kindness, and the quiet joys of everyday life? If so, you may be the Caretaker LoveType (ISFJ on the Myers-Briggs personality test), the devoted nurturer who cherishes emotional intimacy and harmonious relationships. On our Love University podcast, we explored the distinctive romantic needs and strengths of the Caretaker—one of the most caring love personality styles from my classic book, LoveTypes (lovetype.com). Here's what we discovered: As a Caretaker, you approach life with a generous heart, exceptional empathy, and strong devotion, making you a compassionate and dependable partner. You thrive in relationships that offer emotional closeness, stability, and a shared appreciation for cozy routines. For you, love means building a sanctuary—a warm, comforting home filled with thoughtful gestures, heartfelt conversations, and small acts of kindness that deepen bonds over time. Whether preparing a favorite meal, remembering special occasions, or creating welcoming traditions, you find immense joy in giving love through steady and practical care. However, your giving nature may sometimes lead you to put your own needs last, causing you to feel emotionally drained or underappreciated. Fortunately, your innate sensitivity often help you gently communicate your needs, restoring balance and nurturing mutual respect. Your ability to tune into your partner's emotional landscape and offer unwavering support creates lasting bonds of trust and affection. To attract and cultivate your ideal partnership, consider these helpful pointers: Express Your Needs Clearly: Because you naturally focus on others' happiness, you might downplay your own emotional desires. Openly sharing your feelings and needs helps your partner recognize how best to care for you in return, creating a balanced and fulfilling relationship. Find a Partner Who Appreciates Stability: Seek someone who values consistency, loyalty, and heartfelt connection as much as you do. Together, you'll create a harmonious home that honors both your emotional depth and shared values. Balance Giving and Receiving: Though giving nurtures your soul, it's equally important to graciously accept love, appreciation, and support from your partner. Learning to comfortably receive strengthens intimacy and mutual understanding. Honor Your Quiet Strength: Celebrate your natural talents—such as organizing, empathizing, and quietly supporting—without feeling pressure to become someone else. Your gentle strength is deeply attractive to partners who seek genuine, lasting love. Ultimately, the key to finding lasting happiness as a Caretaker is recognizing your remarkable capacity for nurturing love, while ensuring that your own emotional well-being is also prioritized. When you build your cozy home with someone who honors your warmth and devotion, you'll experience the quiet joy and deep connection you've always desired. With the right partner, you'll find that love isn't merely about caring for each other—it's about feeling equally cherished, supported, and at home together.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by ALEX HORNE of TASKMASTER & THE HORNE SECTION!Looking back over Alex's previous appearance on Distraction Pieces, all those years ago back in 2017, it looks like this encore meetup happens in exactly the same way - in the caravan, under a revolving cast of airplanes. But all is well! The planes are not intrusive (apart from to the sunlight), and the chat is not a simple rehash of old things, because how could it be? So much has happened since, though one thing remains - Taskmaster is the immovable object and we are all much better for it. So enjoy this catchup which hits upon all the things you would hope for, including much behind the scenes gold and some hints at what might be on the horizon with the (at time of typing) forthcoming season. It's not all Taskmaster though, as Alex breaks down a lot of what else has been happening and will be happening in a solo and group capacity.

Sakes alive, we're 35, and in this episode we've been inspired by the recent release of Wanderstop to turn our attention to the nebulous topic of cosy games. Is "cosy" a genre? A theme? A vibe? Are all cosy games broadly the same, or is it just a blanket term that can refer to any game without a central combat mechanic? Is "cosy" even still a valid classification now that we've moved so far past all major new titles being, essentially, Doom with a different paint job? All these questions and more will be debated enthusiastically by the Indieventure trio, even if we entirely lack the ability to form a consensus that provides you with definitive answers. What we can manage, however, is to rattle off a bunch of cosy game recommendations, drawing from personal favourites and cosy classics (and indeed both) to come up with a list that encompasses indie titles as disparate as Stardew Valley (naturally), Chicory: A Colorful Tale, Dorfromantik, Dungeons of Hinterberg, the Frog Detective trilogy, House Flipper 2, Lil' Gator Game, Ooblets, PowerWash Simulator, Proteus, Tangle Tower, Tiny Life, TOEM, Wilmot Works It Out, and Frostpunk (no, really!). We also have a crack at an informal group review of Wanderstop, which has elicited an impressive array of thoughts and opinions among a trio of people who normally tend to kind of agree on most things. Who thought what? You'll have to listen to find out, but I can reveal it's a good chat. (And if you haven't yet listened to the recent Indieventure Extra episode where Liam interviews creators Davey Wreden and Karla Zimonja, here's the link to that!) Finally, as always, we end with our current hyperfixations. Liam is still absolutely caning through an essential catalogue of new and recent game releases, and has this time turned his attention to Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest in Capcom's long-running series about invading the habitats of majestic creatures and turning their hides into some fancy pants. Rebecca is trying to live by Wanderstop's example and be kinder to herself, which mainly involves taking a lot of naps at the moment, but she also throws in a couple of bonus recommendations for anti-burnout narratives in the form of Travis Baldree's high fantasy coffee shop novel Legends & Lattes, and of course the evergreen Pokémon Concierge miniseries. And Rachel's circled back to Mindhack, a dystopian visual novel about neutralising enemies of the state with beautiful electronic flowers that painfully rewire their dissident thoughts. You might remember this one from a couple of years ago, and it's good to see it still steadily making its way through early access, and now including four chapters of a planned eight-slash-nine.
