This week, we're heading to Foothill Theatre to talk about Oliver Twist and our experience with this new production of the classic story.
In August 1923, halfway through writing ‘Mrs Dalloway', Virginia Woolf recorded a new idea in her diary: she would ‘dig out beautiful caves' behind her characters, and ‘the caves shall connect, and each comes to daylight at the present moment'. This was Woolf's ‘tunnelling process', a transformative approach that led to the novel's celebrated modernist innovations, with its depiction a group of circulating consciousnesses in London over the course of one day. But underlying these innovations are the techniques of 19th-century realism, and in this episode James Wood explores what Woolf owes to Dickens and Flaubert, and the ways she breaks down these certainties to arrive at the ultimate unknowability of character. Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from the episode.

Have you ever sent someone thoughts and prayers? When someone is having a tough time, we instinctively want to help however we can, including prayer. But we don't always know how to pray or even if our prayers will make a difference. Jesus wants to change that. He is inviting us to join him in praying prayers for people that work. Join us as we learn from him how to upgrade our prayers for the people we know and love.
A man reads about a murder in his morning paper over breakfast in his Piccadilly rooms. That should be the end of it. But something follows him from that reading — something that refuses to stay on the page. And when fate places him in the jury box at the murder trial itself, he begins to count his fellow jurymen, there there should be twelve, he counts thirteen...Dickens wrote this story with a title that is itself a warning. Whether you take that warning as a comment on the narrator, on the law, or on the nature of what follows, is a question the story leaves carefully unanswered. *"To Be Taken with a Grain of Salt"* was first published in the Christmas 1865 edition of *All the Year Round*, Dickens's own literary journal, as part of a collection entitled *Doctor Marigold's Prescriptions*. It was later republished under the titles *The Trial for Murder* and *The Thirteenth Man*.Charles Dickens (1812–1870) was born in Portsmouth and is widely regarded as the greatest English novelist of the Victorian era. He was also one of the finest writers of ghost stories in the language, and this story was considered the definitive English ghost story for decades, before M.R. James arrived to claim that title.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-classic-ghost-stories-podcast--7002956/support.*To buy my paperback books:* https://books.by/tony-walker-booksThe Classic Ghost Stories Newsletter — short essays on the genre, odd discoveries, and recommendations.

Hans Christian Anderson hoped to find a household straight out of a Charles Dickens novel when he visited the Dickens family at their country home in the summer of 1857. Instead, he found a marriage in shambles, a band of miserable and neglected children and a host who was desperately hoping Anderson would leave — the sooner, the better.But Anderson didn't leave. He lingered, for five awkward and painful weeks, while the Dickens family disintegrated around him. Francine Prose takes this historic moment and fictionalizes it in her new novel, “Five Weeks in the Country.” Told from multiple perspectives, the book details the very public dissolution of the Dickens family and the very modern question of what to do when good art is produced by a terrible person. On this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas, Prose and host Kerri Miller tackle it all — including why Prose likes reality TV, how she grapples with being a fan of Dickens work without liking Dickens the person, and what it means to write risky, even after you've written 23 novels.Guest:Francine Prose author of many books, including “Household Saints” and “Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932.” Her new novel is “Five Weeks in the Country.” Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.

Steven Dickens sits with Nicole Petallides to dive into some underappreciated players in the AI investment theme including IBM (IBM), Teradata (TER) and even Amazon (AMZN). He talks about the inertia AI capex spending from the Mag 7 names has on secondary derivatives, calling them "hidden gems." On Nvidia (NVDA), Steven says the company has proven they're not on a "short-term run" and expects them to continue to grow. Later, Steven identifies Palantir (PLTR) and CoreWeave (CRWV) as AI names that have stood out to him.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

This might be one of the only times telepathy was captured in a controlled lab.Ky Dickens is an award-winning filmmaker known for documentaries that tackle complex social issues and drive cultural change. In 2024, she created The Telepathy Tapes, a viral podcast exploring telepathy in the non-speaking community that reached #1 globally and won a Webby Award.In this episode, we get into a filmed triple-blind telepathy experiment conducted in a controlled lab setting. Participants separated by distance began describing locations they had never physically seen. Ky shares, “We caught it all on camera… it might be one of the most spontaneous validations of telepathy or remote viewing ever happened in a lab.”We also talk through her shift from traditional documentary work into studying non-speaking individuals, where communication through spelling appears to reveal consistent access to information beyond conventional sensory input. From there, we explore near-death experiences, creative inspiration, and scientific efforts to examine consciousness through measurable methods.If you've ever been curious about telepathy, remote viewing, autism, or the nature of consciousness, this episode looks at what emerges when these phenomena are observed repeatedly under controlled conditions.You'll learn:[00:00] Introduction[05:17] Ky shares how she went from skeptical documentary filmmaker to stumbling into the world of non-speaking telepathy[08:53] We explore why consciousness, not matter, may be the foundation of reality[20:00] Ky explains how psychic gifts emerge at life's edges, in the dying, the young, and those with apraxia[26:31] We examine the contested question of autism: should it be healed, or is it an evolution of consciousness?[34:52] Ky explains how non-speakers can appear as accidental mystics, including pre-birth memory and hidden energetic work[50:20] Ky breaks down how spelling-to-communicate works and why human presence, not AI, is essential to the process[57:06] We discuss the nonprofit, spelling grants, and the legislative fight to get spelling into schools[59:11] Ky shares the three teachers that shaped her: a skeptical father, Mary Oliver, and the non-speakers themselvesResources Mentioned:Diane Hennacy | WebsiteThe Telepathy Tapes | PodcastElizabeth Gilbert | WebsiteRead: A Horse Named Lonesome: Tales and Teachings to Reclaim Connection, Transcend Separation, and Discover the Divine Within by Luke Storey | BookAmerican Speech-Language-Hearing Association | WebsiteRapid Prompting Method | WikipediaSpellers Method | WebsiteThe Bridge | WebsiteRupert Sheldrake | WebsiteDean Radin | WebsiteFull show notes at https://lukestorey.com/telepathyFind more from Ky:Ky Dickens | Website | Instagram | TikTokThe Telepathy Tapes | Website | Instagram | Facebook | X | TikTok | YouTubeFind more from Luke:Luke Storey | Instagram | Facebook | X | YouTube | LinkedInThe Life Stylist is Brought To You By:APOLLO NEURO | Visit https://apolloneuro.com/luke and use code LUKE to get $99 off the Apollo wearable and SmartVibes AI bundle.QUANTUM UPGRADE | Visit https://lukestorey.com/quantumupgrade and use code LUKE15 to start your 15-day free trial.PIQUE | Visit https://piquelife.com/luke to get 15% off for life when you subscribe.BIOPTIMIZERS | Visit https://bioptimizers.com/luke to save 15% off and get a free bottle of MassZymes while supplies last.
In 19th century English novels, so-called “quarter days” often provided a chronological backdrop to the plot. A relic of medieval times, the quarter days were Lady Day (March 25th), Midsummer Day (June 24th), Michaelmas (September 29th) and Christmas Day (December 25th). These were the dates upon which rents were paid, leases expired and employment contracts took effect. Quarter days were often when the landlords of Austen expected their income, the impoverished families of Dickens had to cough up their rents and the farmworkers of Hardy would move on to their next place of employment. In short, they were days of accounting and reckoning.
We've all been told that we should pray. And we've heard stories of it working. But for many of us, when we've tried it, we didn't get the same results. So we lost confidence. Some of us gave up. Or worse, concluded no one was there. But what if that doesn't have to be our experience? What if there is a way to pray that works? That brings us closer to God, impacts our lives, and moves things in and around us. Join us as we learn from Jesus how to pray.
Dickens in Brooklyn is a virtuoso collection of unusual, compelling essays in which critically acclaimed and award-winning author Jay Neugeboren explores experiences that have been central to his life: caring long-term for a brother with mental illness; finding and connecting with long-lost family members; a posthumous lunch with Oliver Sacks; his years as single parent to his three children; his decision as a General Motors executive trainee to violate company policy and hang out with "hourlies;" a thwarted kiss at a teenage summer camp where he was a young Jewish man in exile among Jews.Neugeboren is the author most recently of Whatever Happened to Frankie King and twenty-three other prize-winning works of fiction and nonfiction. His essays have been recently published in The New York Review of Books, The New York Times, The American Scholar, Los Angeles Review of Books, Tablet, and Commonweal, and are here collected for the first time.

In this episode of The Learning & Development Podcast, David James is joined by Tom Kupetis and Brandon Dickens to explore how AI is revealing deep-seated flaws in the traditional L&D operating model. They discuss why the industry's long-standing reliance on static content and "one size fits all" curricula is no longer fit for purpose in a world where expertise is now available on tap. Tom and Brandon reflect on the shift from managing content production to facilitating "action learning," where L&D practitioners must act more like business consultants to drive real performance change. They delve into the return of the apprenticeship model - now enabled at scale through AI - and how the role of L&D must evolve from a reactive cost centre into a high-value sensing engine that predicts and solves business failures in real-time. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS L&D will have to stop being course producers and become performance partners. Working directly alongside the people who do the jobs to build apprenticeship-style coaching using AI. L&D must be deeply embedded in the business, driven by data and learning science, and judged on measurable performance outcomes, not on volume of training. BEST MOMENTS “Gen AI is … putting expertise on tap, basically.” “When you're trying to get a team to really adopt AI and champion it … you have to create that aha moment.” "If every L&D employee had the anthropic kind of ecosystem at their disposal, it would 10x what they're doing."

Steven Dickens offers a wide perspective on the AI trade and makes the case why it's still the market's "theme" moving forward. For Oracle (ORCL), he believes the software company is a "hyperscaler at scale" with bolstered strength coming from its latest capital deployment. As for Nvidia (NVDA) Steven argues the Mag 7 giant's moat is stronger than ever as it expands its software stack. He later turns to other tech developments in a new partnership between IBM Corp. (IBM) and Arm Holdings (ARM), along with CoreWeave's (CRWV) latest financing. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

I'm delighted to welcome the novelist Emily Howes to the castle to talk about her book The Painter's Daughters, inspired by Gainsborough's portraits of his two girls and the striking shift from their lively childhood images to a stiffer, unhappier adulthood. Emily shares how she researched 18th-century Bath, its muddy, smelly, party-like medical culture, through visits and sources such as James Hamilton's biography, Letters from Bath, and books on travel, while noting how little survives from the daughters' own voices. We discuss Molly's documented illness and Emily's discovery of a possible porphyria link to the Prince of Wales, as well as Gainsborough's finances, his wife's hidden savings, and the sisters' relationship, which Emily likens to Downton Abbey's sister dynamics. Emily also previews her next novel, Mrs Dickens, exploring Catherine Dickens's erasure after Dickens left her for Ellen Turner and the fate of their children.00:46 Why the Daughters03:20 Bath After Covid05:57 Money and Marriage08:18 Research and Sources09:27 Molly Illness Mystery12:21 Sisters and Downton16:05 Blue Boy and Imagination17:25 Gainsborough at Highclere22:23 Next Book Mrs Dickens24:35 Dickens Family Fallout27:53 Catherine After SeparationYou can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.

Another crowd filled podcast from our class on the flipside! Luana Anders shows up to talk about an article I wrote on Medium about her pal Robert Towne on the flipside. (I sent Jennifer a video clip about Chinatown but not the article) https://medium.com/@richmartini/the-matrix-of-chinatown-and-some-amusing-anecdotes-about-those-involved-f3b494e8b468 Luana comes forward to say that the article is incomplete - because I barely scratched the surface of our conversations with Robert Towne and these other folks offstage. (The last paragraph references them). So I knew immediately what Luana was complaining about, Jennifer could not. Then when discussing how Robert influences my writing (he referenced an iconic scene from "The Great Escape" when Steve McQueen was bouncing a baseball against a wall over and over) - Robert talked about the fun of putting an idea in my head and then seeing it come to fruition. Along those lines, Robert Redford showed up to remind Jennifer how he'd met her once, and how he was able to put that memory in her mind, since she'd forgotten about it. Then his pal Paul Newman showed up - someone we've spoken to before, but he also gave his two cent about playing pranks on the flipside. Then Nikola Tesla showed up - the father of AC and radio waves - and we asked him about the amount of his conscious energy that he has brought back to the planet. (He referenced Musk, but said it was "around 3%") That isn't a pejorative - and he could be referring to the OCD part of his journey on the planet. Then Charles Dickens stopped by - all of these folks we've chatted with before over the past ten years, even if Jennifer doesn't recall them - I do. Robert Towne's dog Hira makes a funny comment as well. Just another day at the office. Enjoy!

Dr. Dickens is a visionary leader, AI expert, and scholar who has contributed significantly to the intersection of technology, spirituality, and faith-based engagement. His dissertation explored the impact of generative AI on spiritual direction, and he is the founder of the Encountering Peace app and the Encounter Podcast.
