Podcasts about Dreamland

Adam Hurrey, David Walker and Nick Miller entertain this month's listener entries for Mesut Haaland Dicks, as the Clichés faithful nominate their niche footballing fascinations and irritations. Among the selections are how technology will finally come for the clumsily-operated electronic substitution board, the futile abuse of the BBC's Player Rater tool, whether a team should be top or bottom of a negatively-themed league table, and a passionate defence of strikers who don't gamble on low crosses into the six-yard box.

Today I welcome Olivie Blake to the show to discuss her new Hollywood set Gothic novel, DREAMLAND. You might know her from her fantasy sensation, THE ATLAS SIX, but she writes Horror as well, with an intelligence and depth that I am delighted to highlight here. We chat about everything from her use of identity for Gothic isolation to her use of fires as eco-horror. It's a great conversation and it was my honor to have her on the show. All links and show notes are at https://www.sheworeblackpodcast.com/

Olivie Blake shares DREAMLAND, a tantalizing story of power, seduction, and the omens you’ll ignore when everything you’ve dreamed of feels just within reach.

Who decided that the sea — cold, dangerous and full of smugglers — was somewhere you went for fun?What kind of doctor prescribes plunging into the Channel naked in the dead of winter, and then drinking it?And how did the towns Britain built to enjoy itself end up among the most deprived places in the country?The holiday — the whole idea that ordinary people are owed one — starts with a Brighton doctor, a shed on wheels and an Act of Parliament, and Peter Frankopan and Afua Hirsch follow it from there to the boarded-up promenades of the present.Dr Richard Russell published a book in the 1750s arguing that seawater cured everything from scrofula to melancholy, and that you ought to drink it by the pint, with milk or port to take the edge off. The elites followed him to a fishing village called Brighthelmstone, the Prince Regent built a pleasure palace there, and once the railways arrived the whole thing belonged to everybody. Then cheap flights took it away again. What the Victorians left behind is a coastline of magnificent architecture standing in some of the poorest wards in England — and, lately, the first signs of something coming back.Join Legacy Plus for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fm[0:00] From the Grand Tour to the stick of rock — the moment travel stopped belonging to the rich[8:52] Before the deckchairs: smugglers, pirates and a coastline you kept well away from[9:51] Dr Richard Russell, the eighteenth-century wellness influencer who told Britain to drink the sea[13:17] Peter jumps into the Antarctic in his swimming trunks, shamed into it by a woman in her eighties[17:57] The steam train, the Bank Holidays Act, and the week the mills shut down[20:53] The bathing machine: a shed, a horse, and a strong local person to dunk you[29:54] Clacton, Jaywick, and what happened to the towns Britain built to enjoy itself[35:09] Margate, Dreamland, and whether hipsters can fix a structural problemStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas:Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.comJoin Legacy+ for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fmStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas: Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got a Talkhouse favorite in conversation with a guy who's spent a lot of time behind the scenes on some incredible records. It's M.C. Taylor and Josh Kaufman. Taylor has been making music under the curious name Hiss Golden Messenger for two decades now, and he's amassed an incredible—and incredibly varied—catalog of music that's never easy to pin down. There are elements of rock, folk, even elements of what was called alt-country for a while there. But what ties it all together is a true vision: Taylor has a singular voice and passion that runs through all of his records. The latest is called I'm People and it's concerned with nothing less than community, music-making, heartbreak, and the world at large. He does not aim low, in other words. It's his most ambitious and maybe accessible in a while, and as usually features a motley crew of guests and regulars, including Sam Beam of Iron & Wine, Bruce Hornsby, and Sara Watkins, among others. Check out the song “Shaky Eyes” right here.  Now in addition to all of those day players on I'm People there was a guy there for most of the process, writing and playing along with Taylor: Josh Kaufman. Now Kaufman might be best known as part of the trio Bonny Light Horseman along with Anaïs Mitchell and Eric D. Johnson, but he's done amazing work slightly behind the scenes, too. He was one of the driving forces behind the massive Day of the Dead Grateful Dead tribute a few years back; he was a key part of some records by the National; he played on a few Taylor Swift records—yes, that Taylor Swift—and he was integral to the solo albums by our old pal Craig Finn. He's also, as you'll hear in this chat, a guy who just loves to talk about and play music. One of us, in other words. In this chat, Taylor and Kaufman talk about making I'm People as well as the other Hiss Golden Messenger records they worked on together. They talk about how they first met, which was sort of a magical moment, plus a Bruce Hornsby show with a few too many guest players, lots of bass players, and not enough inputs. Enjoy. 0:00 - Introduction 02:39 - Start of conversation 03:08 - On how they met, and how their friendship helped them collaborate on I'm People 06:26 - On learning to maintain adult friendships, and connecting as musicians  09:25 - On the different studios they've worked in together, playing with Bruce Hornsby, and recording experiences 13:30 - On chasing perfection in the studio, spontaneity, and whether taking too long on albums makes them worse 16:41 - On recording past collaborations together 18:17 - On recording I'm People at Dreamland, and the music scene upstate in the 90s 20:39 - On being inspired by the physical drama of upstate NY and North Carolina, and unique studios 23:10 - On drawing fresh inspiration and references from records from the past while maintaining their own sound 27:14 - On how the musicians they've worked with have evolved and changed, and meeting their favorite collaborators 33:04 - On how the vibe of Dreamland influences the music, and the pros of recording portions at home 35:09 - On the records and types of music that inspired them Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast and thanks to M.C.

Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by David Walker and Jake Farrell. On the agenda: The now-annual breakdown of the Premier League alphabetical distribution and how it makes us feel, who we should "fear for" in the Premier League in 2026/27, what tournaments England legends would have incongruously appeared at if they'd played until they were 40, workshopping a chant for Phil Collins' son at 1860 Munich, Mohamed Salah's surprise move to Trabzonspor, Argos being sold for the same price as Morgan Rogers, a listener's accidental goal celebration in the shower, and the full story of Richard Keys's summer renaissance.

If you want to remake a game, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land is a perfect example of how to do it. It keeps almost everything players loved about the original Kirby's Adventure while adding new elements, quality of life adjustments, multiplayer, and even the opportunity to play as Meta-Knight. Rather than replacing the original, it offers a separate but familiar experience, wrapped in a new visual style and ready to be taken on the go with the Game Boy Advance. Joining Sean, Gigi, and Bridge today is writer, DJ, and podcaster Matt "Stormageddon" (@djstormageddon.com), here to share why Nightmare in Dream Land might be his favorite Kirby game of all time. And in addition to the main discussion, the group also closes the episode by looking more broadly back at the Game Boy Advance to share their other GBA recommendations.

We always love hearing from listeners, and you can reach us at mail@kirbyconversations.com or submit your question to us on social media.For more from Matt, you can listen to their other shows the "Fun" & Games Podcast and Reignite.Sean also has a new podcast covering the GameCube, Dreamcast, and other games of the 2000s called Millennium Edition, and we hope you will subscribe to that one as well!

Books at Bedtime: The Sign of the Four – Chapter 8 (The Baker Street Irregulars)Welcome back to a place of rest and tranquility with another soothing episode of Books at Bedtime, brought to you by the Calming Anxiety podcast and the Anchored app. Tonight, we continue our gentle journey through the fog-bound streets of Victorian London with Chapter 8 of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Sign of the Four, titled "The Baker Street Irregulars". As the thrill of the nighttime chase gives way to the soft light of morning, Toby the dog faithfully recovers a lost trail, leading Holmes and Watson to a quiet riverside wharf. Here, they discover that the elusive wooden-legged man has slipped away down the Thames aboard a steam launch named the Aurora. Rather than rushing into a frantic river pursuit, Holmes wisely delegates the search to his trusted, street-smart network of local lads: the Baker Street Irregulars. Returning to the warmth and safety of their 221B Baker Street rooms, our weary companions enjoy a restorative breakfast while chuckling over an eager, yet entirely inaccurate, newspaper account of the Norwood mystery. Holmes quietly unravels the chilling origins of the second suspect using his encyclopedic knowledge. Then, recognizing Watson's deep exhaustion, Holmes takes up his violin and plays a low, dreamy, and melodious air, guiding his friend—and you—into a peaceful, much-needed slumber. Take a deep breath, let go of the day's tension, and allow this classic tale to carry you gently into Dreamland.

The 2026 World Cup group-stage is over – and we're already under way with the knockout phase of the tournament!Among the teams in the last 32 are seven knockout debutants: Bosnia & Herzegovina, Canada, DR Congo, Egypt, Ivory Coast, South Africa and Cape Verde, who have been the story of the tournament and face Lionel Messi's Argentina next. But which other countries reached the knockouts on their first-ever World Cup appearance? And which others made it through the group phase with three draws?Elsewhere, there are some ties with intriguing political backdrops. Austria face Spain in a battle of the two branches of the Habsburg family, while co-hosts Mexico and Ecuador go head-to-head in the Latin American Embassy Derby. There's also a sinister history between Germany and Paraguay, an assassination plot involving England and DR Congo, and an air base that will link the USA and Bosnia forever.Plus: South Korea's president intervenes following the country's miserable World Cup performance, Marcelo Bielsa has a full-scale meltdown on camera and Tunisia stake a claim for being the worst team at the World Cup.Sign up to The Sweeper's Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/SweeperPodFollow Joey D'Urso on Instagram here:https://www.instagram.com/joey.durso/And Joey D'Urso's Substack is here:https://joeydurso.substack.com/Chapters:00:00 – Intro02:38 – Debutants and draws05:10 – Knockout newcomers10:50 – Cape Verde's Messi meeting17:51 – Political pairings28:11 – Regrets and recriminations
