This is a story I heard from my mechutan, my son-in-law's father, Rabbi Michoel Bachar:  “When my parents arrived in Eretz Yisrael, they settled near Binyamina. This was about 75 years ago.  It was a very difficult time in Eretz Yisrael. It was just after the war.  It was the time of the tzena – there was almost nothing to eat.  My father bought a donkey and a plow and hired himself out as a ploughman.  It was very hard work. My mother learned to sew and worked as a seamstress - and that's how they make a living.  It wasn't a great standard of life, but they survived. And the years passed by. Slowly, they saved some money, and decided to plant a vineyard...

Douglas Adams' The Restaurant at the End of the Universe er anden ret i den fem-retters menu, vi kender som The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy-trilogien. I denne episode af SCIFI SNAK, optaget live på Fantasticon 2025, har vi pakket håndklæder og Old Janx Spirit og kastet os ud i den svære toer. Douglas Adams og den absurde arv Douglas Adams (1952–2001) var en britisk forfatter, humorist og idémand, hvis navn i dag er synonymt med skæv, intelligent science fiction. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy begyndte som radiodrama i 1978 på BBC, og blev senere til bøger, tv-serier, computerspil og en kultstatus, der lever videre i citater og håndklæder. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe udkom i 1980 som efterfølger til Hitchhiker's Guide og bygger direkte videre på radioafsnittene. Adams skrev i et tempo præget af deadlines og improvisation, og det mærkes i bogens struktur: den springer lystigt fra scene til scene, nogle gange uden logik, men altid med et stærk og hektisk dialog og masser af vilde indfald. Han var en mester i at kombinere satire med slapstick og eksistentielle spørgsmål med popkulturelle observationer. Og selv når handlingen slår knuder på sig selv, bliver man hængende for sproget, ideerne og det faktum, at ingen anden kunne få en kop te, en rockkoncert og meningen med livet til at hænge sammen som Douglas Adams. Vi har aldrig rigtig kommet nogen fundet nogen der leverede scifi-humor på hans niveau. Måske er det derfor, at der er så langt i mellem, at der er nogle der prøver. Teknologi, te og total sammenbrud Bogen starter hvor Hitchhikers Guide slutter. Ombord på Heart of Gold forsøger Arthur Dent at få rumskibets Nutrimatic-maskine til at lave en ordentlig kop te. Han beskriver tålmodigt, hvad te egentlig er – med floromvundne detaljer om Ceylon, mælketilsætning og sølvtetøj. Maskinen må have hjælp, og hele skibets computerkraft bliver opslugt i forsøget. Timingen er dårlig, da det efterlader vores helte hjælpeløse midt i et Vogon-angreb. Det er Adams i nøddeskal: en tilsyneladende lille detalje vælter det hele. Plutoniumrock og passiv ledelse Vi møder også det universets vildeste band - Disaster Area - hvis plutonium rockkoncerter er så øredøvende, at de helst skal opleves fra en bunker 100 km væk. Vi møder bandmedlemmet Hotblack Desiato (som er “død af skattemæssige årsager”) på Milliways, "Restauranten ved Universets ende." Zaphod stjæler bandets sorte stunt-rumskib, som desværre er præprogrammeret til at dykke direkte ind i en sol, som en del af Disasters Areas spektakulære koncerter show. Adams giver os et helt kapitel om koncerten og dens klimamæssige effekt på planeten. Igen typisk Adams, at tage en tangent ud af en absurd bivej. Kapitalisme, konsulenter og blade som valuta Bogens måske skarpeste satiriske bid kommer, da Arthur og Ford strandes to millioner år tilbage i tiden med en flok Golgafrinchans – et folk bestående udelukkende af ubrugelige frisører, managementkonsulenter og telefonsanitører. På en neolitisk jordklode fortsætter de ufortrødent med deres håbløse opførsel. Blandt andet indfører de blade som møntfod. Det fører til massiv inflation, fordi der er blade overalt, så de planlægger at brænde skovene ned for at gøre pengene mere værd. Adams' samfundssatire slår hårdt og præcist: Vi vælger at brænde hele verden ned for at redde økonomien. Yndlingscitater Bogen er smækfuld af gode iagtagelser, og man kommer let til at highlighte halvdelen af bogen, hvis man samler på citater. Her er et par citater fra lytterne. Randi citerer bogens ikoniske åbningssætning: "In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." Niels fremhæver: "The Universe, as has been observed before, is an unsettlingly big place, a fact which for the sake of a quiet life most people tend to ignore." Jens' yndlingscitat: "Listen, Ford," said Zaphod,

Josh is the writer of Gyro and the Argonauts - "the totally (mostly) true story of the first “Greek Geek,” a super fanboy vineyard grape-squisher named Gyro (like the sandwich), who learns there's so much more to the maligned monsters of mythology (such as the CYCLOPS, the MINOTAUR, and even MEDUSA herself), and so much less to his favorite heroes (including Perseus, Heracles, and Pegasus) than he ever dreamed." “With big laughs, big heart, and big monsters, Gyro and the Argonauts is timeless fun for everyone!” – Max Brallier, sandwich expert and author of the #1 New York Times bestselling series The Last Kids on Earth Josh shares the book's origin, his writing process, his journey as a creative and more.

This will never get shorter, we're afraid. Strap in, because we discuss every single detail of this episode and Lina is hell bent on trying to push Vero into more and more predictions. And if you feel like we don't seem to remember what we discussed at the start of the episode that well, it's because we had to break this recording in two, due to....wait for it... technical difficulties. Hopefully the transition feels seemless, but who's to say? (you are, it's on you) If you want, please do send us your thoughts to our email dirkgently@taot-podcast.com or use our social media accounts: Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theappleoftruth.bsky.social Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taotpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/taotpodcast

Look around you! Everything is Hashem's word. There is nothing else. Every challenge is being sent to you by Hashem. We are Jews. We don't believe in Dualism. We don't believe in two powers. We don't believe that the Yetzer Hara is a loose gun. Nothing has any independent power. In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording studio in Europe where Queen mixed “Bohemian Rhapsody”. His music publishing company, Druidcrest Music published the music for The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1973) and as a record producer, he co-produced the quadruple-platinum debut album by American band “Foreigner” (1976). American Top ten singles from this album included, “Feels Like The First Time”, “Cold as Ice” and “Long, Long Way from Home”. Other production work included “The Enid – In the Region of the Summer Stars”, “The Curves”, and “Nutz” as well as singles based on The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy with Douglas Adams and Richard O'Brien.

In 1987, he settled in Jerusalem to immerse himself in the study of Torah. His two Torah books The Color of Heaven, on the weekly Torah portion, and Seasons of the Moon met with great critical acclaim. Seasons of the Moon, a unique fine-art black-and-white photography book combining poetry and Torah essays, has now sold out and is much sought as a collector's item fetching up to $250 for a mint copy. He is much in demand as an inspirational speaker both in Israel, Great Britain and the United States. He was Plenary Keynote Speaker at the Agudas Yisrael Convention, and Keynote Speaker at Project Inspire in 2018.

What does it means to lead without ego, serve without exploitation, and rule with spiritual detachment? In this episode of Wisdom of the Sages, Raghunath and Kaustubha dive into the extraordinary standard set by Lord Ramachandra, whose rule began not with conquest but with renunciation.  The conversation also takes a deeper look at the controversial episode of Sita's banishment though the eyes of the sages (as opposed  to the lens of ones's own painful divorce). When seen with spiritual clarity, the pain of separation transforms into an expression of divine love, where Ram and Sita's apparent distance reveals the depth of their unbreakable connection. Key Highlights: * How Ram's leadership flips modern politics on its head * Sages with melted hearts receive the supreme gift - inner illumination * Sita's banishment—and why comparing it to your messy breakup doesn't quite work * What Jay Shetty, and Douglas Adams and Socrates have to do with karma yoga * Abraham Lincolns touching letter about losing a loved one * Bhakti as the “Platinum Package” of yoga paths (yes, karma and jñāna are included) * How Sita Sings the Blues delights, but disappoints

Send us a textA local theater company in the Chicagoland suburbs is performing Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, the Play. Once I knew it existed I had to see it. Though the play itself has its disconnects, the performance of the cast was outstanding.

Have you ever pondered the fact that the universe is expanding? And not only that, it's expanding at an increasing speed - meaning everything around us is getting further and further away? If that isolating thought makes you feel slightly panicked, don't worry: this programme also contains wine!Brian Schmidt is a Distinguished Professor of Astrophysics at the Australian National University, known for his work on supernovae: massive explosions that take place when stars come to the ends of their lives. They are among the most energetic events in the universe and incredibly difficult to find; but that's what his High-Z Supernova Search Team did, identifying enough of these rare and distant explosions to measure just how fast they were moving away from us.This led them to the realisation that, contrary to long-held belief in cosmology, the expansion of the universe was speeding up; a discovery which earned Brian a share of the 2011 Nobel Prize for Physics. As if that wasn't enough, he's gone on to discover one of the earliest stars in the universe; run a university; and become a winemaker, at his very own vineyard just outside Canberra.In a conversation spanning the genius phraseology of writer Douglas Adams, the importance of pisco sours, and the similarities between astronomy and viticulture, Brian tells Professor Jim Al-Khalili how his supernovae breakthrough paved the way for a revolution in astronomy - and where the field needs to go next...Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced for BBC Studios by Lucy Taylor

The new Doctor Who season has launched with Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor joined by new companion Belinda Chandra, played by Varada Sethu. Both of us agree that Sethu's debut as Belinda was great! We look forward to spending the next seven episodes with her and the Doctor. Ben reflects upon what movies "The Robot Revolution" reminded him of, and David wonders if there wasn't a little bit of a Douglas Adams inspiration to the story. Plus, who was more cringy, AL or the Doctor? Opening music is from "Belinda" by the Eurythmics in 1981. Closing music is "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1" by the Flaming Lips in 2002. We recorded this podcast on 15 April 2025.

Lyrics: LIKE A HURRICANE –Robert Levinsky and Yaakov Asher Sinclair ©1978/2018 A little lower than the Angels You placed Man, With all the power to be a partner in Your great plan. A heart that's filled with lust and anger betrays the soul, We can reach a little higher, our wings unfold. Like a Hurricane – reaching for the sky where angels fear to fly, Like a Hurricane - - they fall away - our feet of clay Like a Hurricane – Don't look down! We left the ground. Borne on wings of prayer. The world is filled with much confusion near the eye of the storm, So much bloff - so much illusion – the heart is torn. Times a'changing ever faster – the End is near, When all the world will seek the Master. Rejoice in fear! Like a Hurricane – reaching for the sky where angels fear to fly, Like a Hurricane - they fall away - our feet of clay Like a Hurricane – Don't look down! We left the ground. Borne on wings of prayer. Were I to take the wings of dawn to the distant West, Also there Your Hand would guide me, Your Right Hand to my quest. Like a Hurricane – reaching for the sky where angels fear to fly, Like a Hurricane - - they fall away - our feet of clay Like a Hurricane – Don't look down! We left the ground, Fighting for King and Country.

In 1932, Maxwell House put out a Pesach Haggadah as a marketing promotion. It's been continuously in print since then. They've printed over 50 million copies. Pesach is the most observed of all the Jewish festivals. Even whenJews become secular, and all the other festivals fall by the way, Pesach still hangs in there. Why is that? What is it about Pesach that is so deeply rooted in the Jewish psyche? Chag Kasher v'Sameach!

Well dear listener, it had to happen. After appearing with us separately on various podcasts, a long-time and genuine friend of the podcast - Too Hot for TV's Dylan Rees - joins BOTH of us to discuss the BBC television adaptation of Douglas Adams' THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY on tonight's episode of ALTERNATE GALAXIES. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy aired between 5 January and 9 February 1981 on BBC2 in the United Kingdom. The adaptation follows the original radio series in 1978 and 1980, the first novel and double LP, in 1979, and the stage shows, in 1979 and 1980, making it the fifth iteration of the guide. The series stars Simon Jones as Arthur Dent, David Dixon as Ford Prefect, Mark Wing-Davey as Zaphod Beeblebrox, Sandra Dickinson as Trillian and Stephen Moore as the voice of Marvin. The voice of the guide is by Peter Jones.  Peter Jones, Simon Jones, Moore and Wing-Davey reprised their roles from the original radio series in 1978/80, as did supporting actors Richard Vernon and David Tate. In addition, the series features a number of notable cameo roles, including Adams himself on several occasions.

Send us a Question!MOVIE DISCUSSION: Kathryn joins Melvin to discuss The Monkey, one of the first horror hits of the year, and possibly the first of two new Osgood Perkins films in 2025! For a movie whose tagline is "Everybody dies. And that's F#$*ed up.", is it cynical? Or, is a little heart tossed in with this horror comedy? Also, and perhaps most importantly... is it funny? Tune in to find out!Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 28-minutes discussing Longlegs, Osgood Perkins' 2024 satanic-panic horror-thriller cop drama, and ponder how it stands with his other films, if it exceeded the hype, and how Melvin compares it to The Blackcoat's Daughter, one of his favorite movies. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)It's premise is simple, and it's idea is absurd, lending itself to an easily digest horror/comedy.Everything in the film is in service of jokes.The industry is timid around horror/comedy films, but a film with a reasonable budget offers a lot of opportunity.This is Osgood Perkins' first movie with a male-led cast, and the two explore his representation of gender across his filmography.Chuckling over silly deaths.Amidst all the comedy, Osgood Perkins' still makes sure to add a level of heart the film needs to give it decent pacing, both in its metatext as he processes grief and literally as the film showcases a throughline regarding generational trauma.Talking about the ending, and how you can read into the drama if you want.Recommendations:The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams (2010) (Book)@Niall.Breen.Comics (Instagram) Support the showSupport on Patreon for Unique Perks!
