Narrator: Thomas Jones

This week on the podcast, we're watching out for electric sheep — because we're watching the Uchū Sentai Kyuranger episode "Space.4: Dreamy Android"! Why are we suddenly a bit more on-board with Lucky this week? In what charming way does the show neatly resolve its "too many characters" problem? And... can you be built AND have an uncle? The answers to these questions (and more!) await, on this episode of the Ranger Danger Kyuranger podcast!

Don and Dude continue honoring Casey Kasem with another Classic Casey Countdowns visit, this time to November 25, 1978, when disco, rock, and pop intertwined on the American Top 40. This episode highlights two albums behind that week's Top 10 hits, celebrating the sound of a Thanksgiving spent around radios and record players.Chic – C'est Chic (1978) New York studio pros Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards turned Chic into a precision-groove machine on their second LP, fusing disco, funk, and R&B into sleek, minimal arrangements that still feel luxurious. Driven by the monster hit “Le Freak,” the record balances party-starter anthems with emotionally rich cuts like “I Want Your Love,” showcasing airtight rhythm section work, tasteful strings, and a cool, upscale dancefloor vibe.Foreigner – Double Vision (1978) Fresh off their blockbuster debut, Foreigner sharpened their arena-rock formula on Double Vision, pairing Lou Gramm's powerhouse vocals with Mick Jones's riff-heavy guitar lines and radio-ready hooks. From the punchy opener “Hot Blooded” to the grinding title track and moodier deep cuts, the album captures a band refining its identity through tight songwriting, dramatic dynamics, and a polished yet muscular late 70s rock sound.Dude is Diggin':The Pretty Reckless – Taylor Momsen's Pretty Reckless Christmas (2025): A six-track holiday set where Taylor Momsen blends hard rock crunch with nostalgic seasonal moods, highlighted by a powerful new version of “Where Are You Christmas?”.Various Artists – Saturday Night Fever Original Movie Soundtrack (1977) (vinyl): A landmark disco document packed with Bee Gees smashes and club classics, perfectly channeling the sweaty, cinematic pulse of the late 70s dancefloor.Don is Diggin':Magic Wands – Cascades (2025): Dreamy, guitar-and-synth-driven pop steeped in gothic and new wave textures, full of shimmering atmospheres and mystical, nocturnal imagery.Vince Gill – 50 Years From Home: Secondhand Smoke (2025): Reflective country storytelling that blends personal memories with social themes, delivered in Gill's warm tenor and supported by a cast of Nashville collaborators.Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing. “Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.” – Casey Kasem

"Renting a Boat on the Canal du Midi with Bobbi Heath" is your ultimate guide to one of France's most magical slow travel experiences. In this episode, host Annie Sargent chats with Bobbi Heath, a passionate traveler and boating enthusiast, about her week-long adventure renting a boat on the Canal du Midi. If you've ever dreamed of cruising through France's picturesque countryside, sipping wine, and exploring historic villages—all without needing a boating license—this conversation is packed with practical tips and inspiration. Listen to this episode ad-free Bobbi and her friends started their journey in Homps, a quiet town near Carcassonne, where they rented a boat from Le Boat. No experience? No problem. The Canal du Midi is beginner-friendly, with easy-to-navigate locks and a relaxed pace. Bobbi shares how they mastered the locks (hint: going downstream first makes it easier!), where to find the best wine (hello, Minervois region!), and why this trip is perfect for groups of four. She even reveals her favorite stops, like Le Somail, home to a legendary bookstore (Le Trouve-Tout du Livre), and Carcassonne, where medieval charm meets modern dining at La Table d'Alais. You'll learn how to plan your route, what to pack (duffel bags, not suitcases!), and why early mornings at the locks mean shorter waits. Bobbi also dives into the joys of slow travel—biking along the towpath, shopping at local markets, and enjoying picnics on deck with fresh baguettes and cheese. The Canal du Midi isn't just a waterway; it's a journey through history, wine country, and some of France's most authentic villages. From practical advice on renting boats (expect to pay around $1,200/week) to insider tips on avoiding tourist crowds, this episode covers it all. Whether you're a wine lover, history buff, or just craving a unique getaway, Bobbi's stories will have you ready to book your own canal adventure. If you love France but want to escape the usual tourist spots, this boat trip is the perfect way to see the country at your own pace.

Send us a textEp 687: Tune in for a fantasy immersion experience...Fantasies are yours alone, and that's exactly how they should be. Explore the deeply personal nature of our inner worlds in this episode, reminding us that what happens in our imagination requires no permission from anyone. Ruan makes it clear that fantasies—even unconventional or dark ones—are harmless mental experiences that belong entirely to you.Throughout the episode, Willow emphasizes pleasure as a birthright. (Because really, who gets to decide what brings you joy?) She guides listeners to resist shame and guilt, recognizing that these mental scenarios can be revisited, changed, or completely abandoned whenever you choose. But here's the key distinction she draws: while fantasies need no consent, real-life activities absolutely do.How often do we forget that our imagination can be a legitimate form of self care? The episode frames mental pleasure-seeking as both valid relaxation and personal wellness. Willow encourages embracing what feels good without judgment, essentially giving permission to explore your own mind freely. It's about claiming your inner space, about recognizing that your thoughts are truly your own domain.**Ready to reclaim your imagination?** Tune in to discover why your fantasy life deserves zero apologies and why you deserve emotional release that celebrates your self worth.Estimated Timeline: 00:00:00 - Welcome to Ruan Willow Podcast00:02:08 - Relaxation and Fantasy Preparation Guide00:03:41 - Creating Intimate Fantasy and Connection00:05:06 - Intimate Physical Connection and Arousal00:07:36 - Intimate Sensory Experience and Fantasy00:08:41 - Intimate Physical Connection, intimacy, sexuality00:10:21 - Multiple Orgasms and Pleasure Building00:11:33 - Using Pleasure Toys Together00:12:42 - Fantasies, Pleasure, and Consent00:14:48 - Embrace Your Right to Daily Pleasure00:15:21 - Pleasure is Your Birthright, self help and relationshipsBeach House Views on Theo Reads:  https://www.theoreads.com/story/71ba59ce-badd-4472-90af-b2d324c6a332/viewPreorder: https://books.ruanwillowauthor.com/beachhouseviewsbookSupport the showExclusives https://www.buzzsprout.com/1599808/subscribeNewsletters https://subscribepage.io/ruanwillowhttps://linktr.ee/RuanWillow Affiliates Firm Tech 15% OFF with code ruan15 https://myfirmtech.com/ruanwillow BeeDee dating app https://beedee.app/?r=ohfuckyeahThe Fantasy Box DATE30 for $30 OFF 1st box https://thefantasybox.sjv.io/c/6250602/2141126/26423

I put together something fresh again, a new daytime session to explore different sounds. I started these daytime sessions because I like to experiment. They're a playground to discover new electronic music and new emotions. This set is warm, melodic, and a little bittersweet. Minimal on the surface, emotional underneath. Dreamy, long arcs and slow-bloom melodies that open up as we go. I hope you enjoy these daytime trips as much as I do and maybe discover some new music along the way.

Fluent Fiction - Catalan: Medieval Market Marvel: Laia's Pursuit of Dreamy Wool Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2025-11-03-23-34-02-ca Story Transcript:Ca: Al mercat medieval de Barcelona, l'aire era ple de vida i colors.En: At the medieval market in Barcelona, the air was full of life and colors.Ca: Les parades lluïen un ventall de productes, des de fruites fresques fins a teixits acolorits.En: The stalls displayed a range of products, from fresh fruits to colorful fabrics.Ca: Els venedors pregonaven les seves mercaderies, i el so del regateig ressonava als carrers empedrats.En: The vendors touted their goods, and the sound of bargaining echoed through the cobblestone streets.Ca: Era la vigília de Tots Sants i les aromes de castanyes torrades i encens omplien l'ambient.En: It was the eve of Tots Sants and the scents of roasted chestnuts and incense filled the atmosphere.Ca: Laia passejava pel mercat amb un propòsit clar.En: Laia strolled through the market with a clear purpose.Ca: Cercava llana rara, de qualitat, per fer capes d'hivern.En: She was searching for rare, high-quality wool to make winter cloaks.Ca: Les volia vendre al mateix mercat i destacar-se entre els molts comerciants que competien per l'atenció dels compradors.En: She wanted to sell them at the same market and stand out among the many merchants competing for the buyers' attention.Ca: Els seus cabells rossos brillaven sota el sol tardoral, i els seus ulls blaus observaven cada racó a la recerca de la parada que buscava.En: Her blonde hair shone under the autumn sun, and her blue eyes scanned each corner in search of the stall she was looking for.Ca: "Vaga pels carrers, però no oblidis el teu objectiu," es repetia Laia a si mateixa.En: "Walk the streets, but don't forget your goal," Laia repeated to herself.Ca: Sabia que les seves monedes eren poques i el temps escàs.En: She knew her coins were few and time was short.Ca: La multitud, atreta pels festeigs de Tots Sants, feia el camí difícil.En: The crowd, drawn by the Tots Sants festivities, made the path difficult.Ca: Afortunadament, la seva amiga Teresa l'acompanyava, ajudant-la a esquivar la gent.En: Fortunately, her friend Teresa accompanied her, helping her weave through the people.Ca: "Allà està, Laia, la parada del llanaire!En: "There it is, Laia, the wool vendor's stall!"Ca: " Teresa va exclamar, assenyalant un petit lloc ple de bobines de llana de tots colors.En: Teresa exclaimed, pointing to a small spot full of wool spools of all colors.Ca: Laia es va dirigir ràpidament cap allà quan de sobte va veure una figura coneguda, Arnau, un comerciant rival.En: Laia quickly headed there when she suddenly saw a familiar figure, Arnau, a rival merchant.Ca: Ell també fixava la mirada en la llana.En: He also fixed his gaze on the wool.Ca: Els seus ulls es van trobar, i una competició silenciosa es va establir entre ambdós.En: Their eyes met, and a silent competition was established between the two.Ca: La Laia es va apropar al llanaire, decidida.En: Laia approached the wool vendor, determined.Ca: "Bon dia.En: "Good day.Ca: He sentit que la teva llana és la millor.En: I've heard your wool is the best.Ca: Podria comprar-te algunes bobines?En: Could I buy some spools?Ca: Tinc un somni de crear capes úniques per aquest hivern.En: I have a dream of creating unique cloaks for this winter."Ca: "L'ancià llanaire la va mirar amb benevolència.En: The elderly wool vendor looked at her kindly.Ca: "Tens ulls plens de passió, jove.En: "You have eyes full of passion, young one.Ca: Però, el meu estoc és limitat avui, i aquest noi," va dir assenyalant l'Arnau, "també vol fer una oferta.En: But my stock is limited today, and this young man," he said, pointing to Arnau, "also wants to make an offer."Ca: "Arnau, amb un somriure segur, va oferir una suma més gran del que la Laia podia imaginar per les bobines.En: Arnau, with a confident smile, offered a sum larger than Laia could imagine for the spools.Ca: El cor de Laia va començar a bategar ràpidament.En: Laia's heart began to beat rapidly.Ca: Sabia que no podia competir amb la riquesa d'Arnau, però també sabia que no podia perdre aquella oportunitat.En: She knew she couldn't compete with Arnau's wealth, but she also knew she couldn't miss this opportunity.Ca: Amb valentia, Laia va mirar el llanaire.En: With courage, Laia looked at the wool vendor.Ca: "Vinc aquí perquè crec en la meva visió.En: "I come here because I believe in my vision.Ca: Vull construir el meu futur i ser una clienta lleial.En: I want to build my future and be a loyal customer.Ca: Segur que Arnau és un bon comprador, però jo.En: I'm sure Arnau is a good buyer, but I...Ca: Jo faré que aquesta llana siguis tu mateix als carrers de Barcelona, admirada per tothom.En: I will make this wool be you yourself on the streets of Barcelona, admired by everyone."Ca: "Alguna cosa en la sinceritat de Laia va tocar el llanaire.En: Something in Laia's sincerity touched the wool vendor.Ca: Ell va pensar per un moment i després li va somriure.En: He thought for a moment and then smiled at her.Ca: "Et crec, Laia.En: "I believe you, Laia.Ca: Tinc fe en els teus somnis.En: I have faith in your dreams."Ca: " Amb aquestes paraules, li va vendre la llana al preu que Laia podia pagar.En: With these words, he sold her the wool at a price that Laia could afford.Ca: Laia va agrair profundament i va sortir del mercat amb les bobines de la seva mà, més segura que mai.En: Laia thanked him deeply and left the market with the spools in her hand, more confident than ever.Ca: Sabia que havia fet un pas important cap al seu somni.En: She knew she had taken an important step towards her dream.Ca: Mentre caminava de tornada cap a casa amb Teresa, el sol brillava amb una llum càlida de tardor, omplint el seu cor d'esperança i decisió renovada.En: As she walked back home with Teresa, the sun shone with a warm autumn light, filling her heart with hope and renewed determination.

Episode 181 Artificial Intelligence and Electronic Music Playlist Time Track Time Start Introduction 05:42 00.00 1.     Cornelius Cardew, “Treatise: String Orchestra (2025). The first of three AI interpretations of a piece by Cardew composed between 1963 and 1967. The work was written as a graphic score. Produced by the team of Professor Shlomo Dubnov of the University of California at San Diego, they used as the basis for an improvisation Cardew's graphical musical score comprising 193 pages of lines, symbols, and various geometric or abstract shapes that largely stray from conventional musical notation (pages 1 to 33 were used). The recordings from Dubnov's team interpreted this graphic score with the help of Open AI's ChatGPT 40 and a program they developed themselves called Music Latent Diffusion Model (MusicLDM), an AI-like algorithm. The recordings show how AI can transform visual stimuli into sound and expand on their interpretation in an experimental music composition. This version is arranged for digital string orchestra. 11:23 05:54 2.     Cornelius Cardew, “Treatise” Sinewave” (2025). This version from Dubrov's lab was arranged for sinewave generator. 11:15 17:10 3.     Cornelius Cardew, “Treatise: Experimental” (2025). This version from Dubrov's lab was arranged for a mix of instruments defined as “experimental” by the team. 11:32 28:24 4.     Valérie Philippin, “Extraits de recherche” (2024). Vocal interaction experiment conducted with vocalist Valérie Philippin while she was in artistic residence at European Research Council REACH project (ERC) at IRCAM. AI interaction in real-time using the Somax2 program. Voice: Valérie Philippin, Somax2 & electronics: Mikhail Malt. 03:52 39:48 5.     Horse Lords and The Who/Men, “Zero Degree Machine” (2023). Horse Lords Concert at ERC REACH. Music using Somax2 to interact with the performers and add new parts and instruments in real time. If you hear something other than a guitar, drums, bass, and sax, then it was created by Somax2. You might detect loops of instruments (e.g., saxophone) as well because Somax2 adds to the mix. Horse Lords (Max Eilbacher bass/electronics, Sam Haberman percussion, Owen Gardner guitar, Andrew Bernstein percussion/saxophone). The Who/Men: Gérard Assayag, Mikhail Malt, Reach interactive AI: Somax2; Marco Fiorini, Reach interactive AI: Somax2 and electric guitar; Manuel Poletti, computer music production at IRCAM). The Who/Men are providing guidance for Somax2 in real-time, operating different instances of the program on their laptops. 18:45 43:42 6.     PintoCreation “AI-generated Sci-Fi Sci-Fi and Visual Storytelling” (2025). This is just an example of how task-specific AI is being used to generate videos with electronic music soundtracks. This is an excerpt from one of the soundtracks for the many videos they have generated for their YouTube channel. 07:54 01:02:26 7.     Artificial Intelligence Music, “Melodic Techno” (2025). Excerpt of AI-generated techno music found on this YouTube site. They explain that the music found here “was composed by an AI, meticulously trained on the nuances of this captivating genre.' I have no idea what AI engine was used, but this is just one example of how many music producers are getting onto the AI train. 06:51 01:10:17 8.     Atmoscapia, “Calm Ambient” (2025). This is a purpose-built generative ambient music creator for “Films, Games, YouTube, and Creative Projects.” Billed as an “Instant Ambient Music Generator For Content Creators,” you use it by selecting styles and lengths up to an hour long. In this case, I chose the style “Calm, Meditative, Dreamy.” Two other categories are also provided for “Cinematic, Dramatic, Emotional” and “Dark, Horror, Suspense.” Those are the extent of the current choices in the free version. It delivers a soundtrack that you can download. 10:00 01:17:08 9.     Thom Holmes, “Thom DeepAI Noise Music” (2025). In an attempt to generate something more experimental using an AI system, I turned to DeepAI and gave it the following instructions: “Experimental, noise sounds. No melody, no harmony, no rhythm.

We also talk about the warm historical ties between the Netherlands, Canada, and the UK.Whether you're planning a trip to the Netherlands or love hearing about destinations beyond the obvious, this conversation will give you fresh ideas, practical travel tips, and a deeper appreciation for Dutch culture.

Moonlit seaweeds. Dreamy underwater forests. Mounds of beach debris. Not plants. Let's talk about where seaweed grows and whether or not it will save us all. Macrophycology means “big-ass algae” so let's join five dazzling seaweed enthusiasts: guest-in-chief Dr. Patrick Martone of the University of British Columbia, UConn Professor Emeritus and “grandfather of seaweed farming” Dr. Charlie Yarish, seagrass scientist Becky Swerida, and marine science PhD students Danielle McHaskell and Angela Jones. We'll chat about what's hidden in its cells, the best ones to eat, how fast it grows, how deep it gets, cold vs. tropical seaweeds, what to do if your vacation pictures feature mounds of sargassum, and whether or not kelp can kill a chicken. In next week's episode, you'll hear all about the aquaculture of cultivating and eating things from the seaweed to shellfish to shrimp farmed in a basement doughboy. Not really a two parter but two episodes that are friends and hang out in the same circles. Visit the Martone Lab and follow Dr. Martone on Google ScholarGet the Seaweed Sorter app developed by Dr. MartoneFollow Dr. Charles Yarish on Google ScholarFollow Danielle McHaskell on InstagramVisit Angela Jones' websiteFollow Becky Swerida on InstagramDonations went to Raincoast Education Society, GreenWave, and Black in Marine ScienceMore episode sources and linksSmologies (short, classroom-safe) episodesOther episodes you may enjoy: Oceanology (OCEANS), Island Ecology (ISLANDS), Cnidariology (CORAL), Tardigradology (TINY SEMI-INDESTRUCTIBLE WATER BEAR MOSS PIGLET CREATURES CALLED TARDIGRADES), Bryology (MOSS), Echinology (SEA URCHINS & SAND DOLLARS), Lutrinology (OTTERS), Ethnoecology (ETHNOBOTANY/NATIVE PLANTS), Dendrology (TREES), Forensic Ecology (NATURE DETECTIVE)Sponsors of OlogiesTranscripts and bleeped episodesBecome a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a monthOlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!Follow Ologies on Instagram and BlueskyFollow Alie Ward on Instagram and TikTokEditing by Mercedes Maitland of Maitland Audio Productions and Jake ChaffeeManaging Director: Susan HaleScheduling Producer: Noel DilworthTranscripts by Aveline Malek Website by Kelly R.
