Frank Secich & Jim Kendor in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.facebook.com/fsecich https://peppermintrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dinner-at-mr-billys DINNER AT MR. BILLY'S During 1971 and 1972, the classic Blue Ash line-up of David Evans, Jim Kendzor, Bill "Cupid" Bartolin and Frank Secich played more than quite a bit in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It seemed like we were playing "The Burgh" 4-5 nights a week. At the time, we had two booking agencies in Pittsburgh, Go Attractions (Rich Engler and Paul St. John) and Fly By Night Productions owned by Joe Riccelli. One time back then we were driving on Rt. 51 south of Pittsburgh to a gig in Clarion. Cupid looked out the window of the car and saw a big sign for a restaurant called "Mr Billy's”. He said to all of us as he pointed to the sign, "If we ever get to make an album, we should call it "Dinner At Mr. Billy's". We all laughed. I thought it was a hilarious idea. Cupid and I even wrote a song right after that called "Dinner At Mr. Billy's", then we promptly forgot about the whole idea. While going through the vaults recently at Peppermint Productions, we found the tape of the song "Dinner At Mr. Billy's" and in honor of Cupid, Mr. Billy has now finally made it out of oblivion and on to an album.
“THISISPOPBABY” comes to the Everyman with 0800 Cupid, showcasing the talent of Cork's Emer Dineen. Playwright and Co Director Philip McMahon spoke to Conor Tallon all about this powerful cabaret. A Very modern and youthful show. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

While we are on a break, enjoy this episode from Season 2. Season 3 starts May 19!This week, we take on Apuleius' The Golden Ass, a hilarious surprise from Ted Gioia's Immersive Humanities Course. Written in the mid-300s A.D., this is the very first Latin prose novel, penned by Algerian-born Apuleius. Lucius, our hero, is a young man who meddles in magic, transforms into a donkey, and embarks on wild adventures before returning to human form. We were so captivated that note-taking fell by the wayside, much like with Herodotus' Histories. This rollicking tale, brimming with late-Roman-Empire themes, proved both hilarious and profound.Unlike Aristotle's structured tragedy guidelines (see Week 5's Poetics), The Golden Ass defies unity of action, place, and time, weaving a tapestry of digressions and sub-stories. Lucius' transformation serves as a spine for tales like “I heard…” or “So they told me…,” echoing the nested narratives of The Odyssey and The Aeneid. The standout sub-story is the myth of Cupid and Psyche, the earliest known version, which stunned us as the inspiration for C.S. Lewis' Till We Have Faces. Its late appearance for a myth feels significant, reflecting a decadent, fatigued Roman worldview. Fortune, personified as in Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy, reappears, underscoring this era's preoccupations.Sarah Ruden's translation is a triumph, preserving Apuleius' puns, alliteration, and bawdy humor. This farce, second only to Lysistrata in humor, is delightfully NSFW, with outrageous scenes that shocked even our son Jack. Ruden notes comparisons to modern humorists like Wodehouse or George MacDonald Fraser's Flashman series, and we see parallels to Forrest Gump—Lucius stumbles through events without driving the plot. The book's influence extends to A Confederacy of Dunces, sparking new reading threads for us, exactly why we joined this course.Join us next week as we travel east and read The Arabian Nights.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)

[Apologies but the recording is quite poor at the start, but improves. Please bear with it - Nick]John Granger shared privately with Nick Jeffery that he thought it would be a good idea to read C. S. Lewis' Till We Have Faces, a re-telling of the Cupid and Psyche myth, to get a better grip on Rowling-Galbraith's re-imagining of the same myth in her Cormoran Strike series.Nick, as is his wont, promptly read the book, wrote up the possible connections between the chapters of Till We Have Faces and the books in the Strike series — C. S. Lewis' ‘Till We Have Faces' and Rowling-Galbraith's Cormoran Strike Series (Part One) — which ‘Part One' constituted a challenge to John to write up his contrarian notes as ‘Part Two,' which he did yesterday.Today? They talk about CSL's Till We Have Faces, what it tells us (and doesn't tell us) about JKR's Strike series, and the reasons why a Serious Striker or ‘every thoughtful reader' really should read Lewis' last novel, one he and Tolkien thought was his best.Hogwarts Professor is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Links to everything they discuss can be found in their respective write-ups: C. S. Lewis' ‘Till We Have Faces' and Rowling-Galbraith's Cormoran Strike Series (Part One) by Nick and C. S. Lewis' ‘Till We Have Faces' and Rowling-Galbraith's Cormoran Strike Series (Part Two) from John.Here is a copy of the ten questions that kept their conversation — for the most part! — between the guard rails. Enjoy!CSL and JKR Tackle ‘Cupid and Psyche:' The Ten Questions1. (Nick) So, why, John, are we talking about a book Rowling has never mentioned, in a genre she has never attempted, by an author from whom she has tried to distance herself, and which has no obvious connection to what Rowling is writing today? [See the first paragraphs of John's Part Two.]2. (John) Can you give our listeners a quick review of the book's history, Nick, that is, the story behind the story? [Nick discusses information here not in either of their posts!]3. (Nick) Which is all very interesting from the Lake side of the reading, but it's the story itself that is the connection to Rowling. Give us the plot points, structure highlights, and spoil the ending, too, won't you, John? [John reads Nick's plot summary from his Part One (below). Another summary can be found on the Faces wikipedia page.]Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold by C.S. Lewis is a first-person retelling of the Cupid and Psyche myth, narrated by Orual, the eldest daughter of the King of Glome (a fictional barbarian kingdom). Orual frames Part One as a bitter complaint or accusation against the gods, particularly Ungit (a cruel fertility goddess akin to Aphrodite/Venus, represented by a black stone) and her son, the god of the Grey Mountain (the “Shadowbrute” or Brute). She writes in old age as queen, claiming the gods have wronged her, especially by taking her beloved half-sister Istra (whom she calls Psyche). The novel is divided into two parts. Part One (the bulk of the book, spanning 21 chapters) recounts events from Orual's perspective as she experiences them, portraying her actions as justified love and the gods as unjust. Part Two (a short addendum of about 4 chapter) is written later, as Orual nears death. Here, she gains new insight through dreams, visions, and self-reflection, realizing how her “love” was often possessive, jealous, and devouring—much like Ungit's. The veil she wears becomes a central symbol: initially to hide her ugliness, later as a barrier to truth and self-knowledge. “Till we have faces” suggests that true self-revelation and honest relationship (with gods or others) require facing reality without masks or illusions.4. (John) We know for sure that CSL was re-telling the Cupid and Psyche myth here; Lewis and the text make that undeniable. I argued from the text five years ago that Rowling-Galbraith was doing something similar and she suggested strongly by tweet this was the case. In your post, Nick, you swung for the fences to explore the possibility that Till We Have Faces was a model of sorts for the Strike series. Did you establish or eliminate that possibility -- and what were the most interesting connections you found? [See Part One!]5. (Nick) You've recently re-read this, too, John; were you struck by story echoes in Strike from Faces? [John discusses CSL's wonderful cryptonyms, several of which have alchemical notes, a point he didn't write up in Part Two, and then talks about the allusion to Psyche as “Artemis and Aphrodite combined” in Faces, the importance of ‘The Real' in Lewis and Rowling, and the importance of “the riddle” to Lewis and a “debate” to Rowling, all in Part Two.]6. (John) The key connection, though, of course, is in the use of the myth and how the modern and postmodern authors parallel the original version and depart from it. Care to compare and contrast the two adaptations, Nick? [Nick answers this with some references to Part One and John offers a Planet Narnia inspired opinion.]7. (Nick) You brought up in our alchemy conversation earlier in the month, John, and in your Faces post that Rowling seems to want to foster a “debate” within and among her readers about how to best understand her work, specifically between a psychological or spiritual interpretation. That seems to be on Lewis' agenda, too, no, in Faces? [Part Two, Point #4]8. (John) As fascinating as that parallel is, Nick, the structural one is better, I think. What do you make of Faces' two Parts and our conversations about how the ten book series seems to be playing out? [Part Two, Point #5]9. (Nick) You've played with the names a bit, John; what do you think is the meaning of the title? There's a specific passage in which Till We Have Faces is spoken as dialogue and we know Lewis' preferred title was Bareface, but what do you think Lewis was after with the Faces idea -- and does it have any relevance to Strike?[Part Two, Point #6]10. (John) So, let's do another tally of CSL/JKR correspondences. And what are the differences between Lewis and Rowling?List: Ten Points of Correspondence1. Christian symbolism,2. kappa atmosphere artistry,3. literary alchemy,4. psychomachia,5. ring composition,6. the debate/riddle about God7. Mythic retelling8. Genre blending9.

Malta. A fortress carved from rock, surrounded by sea, ruled by warrior monks who pray at dawn and kill by noon.Caravaggio arrives to paint a portrait. He stays because he has no choice. The Grand Master offers sanctuary, admiration, and something neither man is prepared to name. The Captain at Arms offers suspicion, jealousy, and a locked door every night.Act Two is the cage. Beautiful. Suffocating. Holy.Caravaggio paints the Grand Master's portrait and captures more than armor and scars. He captures a man's loneliness. The Knights throw a feast in his honor. He dances on tables. He is knighted with a gold sword. He is watched from every window.Back in Rome, Cardinal Del Monte fights for a papal pardon while the Tomassoni brothers hire bounty hunters. The Pope dies. A new Pope rises. The Church still cannot decide what Caravaggio is worth.On the beach, the Turks attack. Knights are nailed to crosses and set on fire, floated into the harbor at dawn. Caravaggio picks up a sword for the first time. He gives water to a dying boy. The boy is killed in front of him.Flashbacks pull him back to Rome. To Lena. To the night Ranuccio came for him with a blade. To the moment that changed everything.He paints The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist on a chapel wall and signs his name in the blood flowing from the saint's neck. The only painting he ever signed.Then he paints a Cupid so grotesque it seals his fate.Act Two is devotion. Desire. Betrayal. The moment a man realizes that the sanctuary he was promised is just a prison with better art on the walls.The fuse is burning.CastDennis Kleinman · NarratorCraig Parker · CaravaggioDan Lauria · Cardinal Del MonteBruce Davison · Alof de WignacourtShaan Sharma · Stefano della CroceCatherine Lidstone · LenaSarah Elmaleh · MariaBrendan Bradley · Annibale CarracciNoah James · Ranuccio TomassoniJosh Sterling · Ottavio TomassoniZeke Alton · Giovan TomassoniNick Monteleone · ManciniMatt Curtin · ToppaBjorn Johnson · Pope Paul VRay Abruzzo · Pope Clement VIIIWritten byRichard VetereExecutive Produced byJack Levy, Shaan Sharma, and Mark KnellTable Read is a Manifest Media production.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Valentine's Day. It's a time of exaggerated displays of affection, of wining and dining, a chance to reignite the passion that maybe got obscured by parental duties. Cupid's holiday can serve as a bitter reminder of the single life or be a gentle nudge to appreciate the ones we love. Valentine's Day usually doesn't involve reporting someone missing. On February 14th, 2007 Michigan father of two Stephen Grant filed a missing person's report for his wife Tara. Tara Grant, a successful businesswoman who traveled weekly for work, left their house one night in a dark sedan. She was never seen or heard from again.

If you've ever wondered what happens when a daily comedy show accidentally stumbles into bowling ownership, Valentine's Day ethics, and a Pokémon scandal in the same morning… congratulations. You found your people.Today's episode kicks off with a major announcement: Moon Valjean is now the proud owner of Pin-Up Bowl in The Loop. That's right. Our own Moon — musician, radio host, professional vibe curator — now owns 73 bowling balls and possibly a dream. We talk leagues, Pete Weber tributes, pre- and post-Pageant party domination, and whether Rizz will immediately break something in the back mechanical room. (He will.)Then we dive headfirst into Valentine's Day drama. Rafe casually admits he made THREE dinner reservations “just in case,” which spirals into a full breakdown of modern dating strategy. Is that romantic preparedness or Cupid-level chaos? Meanwhile, we debate whether you break up before Valentine's Day or fake it through dessert like an emotional stunt double. Tough love was served hotter than a Longhorn ribeye.Speaking of Longhorn… a dad goes viral bragging that his son told his date to “get the tip” after he paid for dinner. The result? No tip. No second date. Just a waitress caught in the crossfire of a weird morality lesson. The crew does not hold back on this one. Spoiler alert: Rizz is Team Waitress.Oh, and yes — apparently there was a PokéStop on Epstein Island. We unpack how that even happens, how PokéStops work, and how the internet manages to make everything weirder than it already is.We also hit: • Britney vs Bieber catalog money debate • Nelson Mandela, Buster Douglas, and accidental Cheney history • Bands ditching talent agencies post-Epstein files • A Clownspiracy involving Orville Peck and Clownvis • And the ongoing saga of King Scott dressing like Austin Powers in publicIt's your favorite daily comedy show doing what we do best: taking real headlines, real life, and real awkwardness and turning it into something you can laugh at on your commute (worth $8,158 annually, apparently).If you're into pop culture chaos, sarcastic humor, St. Louis energy, and a group of friends who probably overshare for a living, this daily comedy show is your safe place.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Olympian Sturla Holm Lægreid Holds Back Tears as He Admits to Affair in Live TV Interview After Medal WinPokémon Go Players Kept Swarming The Epstein Island Pokéstop, Forcing Devs To Remove ItFormer substitute teacher accused of sexual relationship with minorMissouri lawmakers propose easing vehicle inspection rulesToyota recalls 141K vehicles over doors that could open while driving4 people have died from eating death cap mushrooms as they spread in California after rainsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
