Send us a textWe live our lives knowing that we have an expiration date. Nobody gets out of here alive. As we age, we become more keenly aware of that date. Many become filled with fear as it approaches. That sense of fear causes them to stop doing the things which are critical to living a full life. They stop laughing, giving and being kind. They forget how to “keep it real.”In his newest book, Keep On Keeping On, Dr. Mark Rutland explores the keys to making the most out of life as we age. With humorous stories, he has crafted the “gold standard” for making the most of our “golden years.” In this episode of Finish Strong, he shares many of those stories. Be prepared to laugh and learn. After hanging out with Mark, you'll want to face the rest of your life with a renewed sense of energy and purpose. You'll learn the secret to “dying young as old as possible.” And when your day comes to leave this world behind, you will not be afraid!Support the showFearless Faith Websiteffaith.orgTo leave a review - Open Finish Strong on the Apple Podcast app and scroll down until you see "Ratings & Reviews".

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film.

This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars. From JOANNA BARNES' Gloria Upson declaring, “It was just ghastly!” in “Auntie Mame” to the impassioned monologue about love that BEAH RICHARDS delivers to SPENCER TRACY in “Guess Who's Coming To Dinner,” we take a fun look at these powerful performances that we're still talking about today.

Join Carl and British country house historian Curt DiCamillo for a look into the world of the Edwardian country house. Audiences became fascinated in these houses through the blockbuster Julian Fellowes series "Downton Abbey" and his earlier film "Gosford Park", with their colliding worlds of upstairs and downstairs and interlocking social dramas. Curt discusses this fascinating period in British history and how the country house in Edwardian times brought society closer to a modern age. Curt explains how country houses as estates for the British aristocracy evolved over centuries and how they reached their height in the reign of King Edward VII, who took the throne following the death of his mother, Queen Victoria. The country house greatly expanded during this time and some interiors reflected influences from Britain's growing empire. Grand dinners, shooting parties, and elegant tea parties were all backdrops to great social intrigue and sometimes scandal. In this show, Curt shares several examples of great Edwardian country houses (including one current royal estate), what they looked like, how they operated, and how they can be visited today. The Edwardian period was a glittering one, much like America's Gilded Age, but a short one, which vanished from view as Britain and Western Europe entered a world-changing war.

Join your fearless host, Brian, on another wild ride through the cinematic wilderness in this episode of B-Movie Bliss. We're diving deep into the eccentric and utterly unpredictable world of "Willy's Wonderland." Imagine Nicolas Cage, armed with nothing but a mop, facing off against possessed animatronic characters in a run-down amusement center. It's a cocktail of horror, humor, and unadulterated absurdity that will leave you questioning the very fabric of cinematic reality. In this episode, we dissect the genius of silence as Nicolas Cage takes center stage without uttering a single word. We explore the nostalgic nods and clever parodies that make "Willy's Wonderland" a love letter to the weird and wonderful side of cinema. From cheesy one-liners to over-the-top action sequences, we unpack the intentional quirks that transform this film into a so-bad-it's-good masterpiece. Buckle up for a rollercoaster of laughter and contemplation as we discuss the brilliance of embracing the peculiar, the joy of witnessing Cage's unique brand of performance art, and the unexpected charm of a movie that defies all expectations. It's B-Movie Bliss at its finest, celebrating the strange, the absurd, and the downright delightful.

I keep thinking of all the other writers who also have these sorts of protagonists. The cops of Karen Slaughter, Ian Rankin and Peter James are not exactly happy guys who are at peace with the world; their relationships are in shambles; they are eccentric. It's probably like taking the mad genius idea and remoulding it to fit the flawed cop. I know this character, Borei Gowda, so well; I know what he can do and what he can't do. His own flaws allow him to see the world with a certain cynicism. But then every cynic is maybe also a naive idealist. In many ways, Bangalore and Gowda are synonymous with each other" - Anita Nair, author, Hot Stage, talks to Manjula Narayan about writing a police procedural series, how personal agendas often drive even political crimes, and creating believable characters with familiar tics and hypocrisies
Fluent Fiction - Japanese: The Enchanting Eccentricity of Yumi: Finding Joy in Unexpected Places Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.org/the-enchanting-eccentricity-of-yumi-finding-joy-in-unexpected-places Story Transcript:Ja: ユミは変わり者だった。世間の人々が頭を抱える雑踏の中でも、ユミは東京の電気街、秋葉原の鮮やかなネオンライトが照らす路地を歩いていた。鮮やかなピンクのキュロットパンツに蝶ネクタイ、しかもその時、彼女が自動販売機にお辞儀をしてしまった。En: Yumi was an eccentric person. Amidst the hustle and bustle that left most people perplexed, Yumi walked through the illuminated alleyways of Akihabara, the electric town in Tokyo. She wore vibrant pink culottes and a butterfly necktie, and at that moment, she accidentally bowed to a vending machine.Ja: 混雑した町で一人立っているユミは、自分が間違ってお辞儀をした自動販売機を見つめていた。その瞬間、その近くにいた人々はすぐに彼女を目撃し、不思議そうに見つめていた。しかしユミは、そんな視線も気にせず、くるりと体を回し道を進んでいった。En: Standing alone in the crowded town, Yumi stared at the vending machine that she had mistakenly bowed to. Instantly, people nearby witnessed her act and stared at her in wonder. However, Yumi paid no mind to those looks and gracefully turned around, continuing on her way.Ja: 毎日、ユミは自分の行き違った行為について考え、何がおかしいのか理解しようとした。そしてある晩、ユミは物事を可笑しい方向から見る自分の特性についてようやく理解した。それは一種の天真爛漫さで、自分自身や他人を楽しくさせるためのものだと。En: Every day, Yumi pondered her unconventional actions, trying to understand what was strange about them. And one evening, Yumi finally understood the nature of her ability to see things from a humorous perspective. It was a kind of childlike innocence, meant to bring joy to herself and others.Ja: そして次の日、ユミは再び同じ自動販売機に向かった。彼女は慎重にお辞儀をし、今度は深々と脱帽した。人々は彼女の周りで笑いだし、驚いた様子で見つめていた。En: The next day, Yumi approached the same vending machine again. She bowed carefully, this time with a deep formal bow. Laughter erupted around her as people watched in surprise.Ja: "あの子、自動販売機に……お辞儀？"近くの男性がぽつりと呟いた。En: "That girl... bowing to a vending machine?" a nearby man murmured.Ja: "おそらく、それはおもしろい何かを意図した行動なんだよ。"彼の友人が快活に言い返した。En: "She probably intended it as something funny," his friend replied cheerfully.Ja: そう、ユミは東京のこの小さな一角で愉快な驚きを提供した。彼女の行動は誤解を恐れず、規範にとらわれることなく、彼女自身と周囲を楽しませるためのものだった。それすらも、東京という都市が孕む多様性の一部だとユミは感じた。En: Yes, Yumi brought delightful surprises to this small corner of Tokyo. Her actions were meant to amuse herself and those around her, without fear of misunderstanding or conforming to norms. Yumi felt that this was a part of the diversity that the city of Tokyo encompassed.Ja: そしてユミは、誤って人の代わりに自動販売機にお辞儀をすることで、人々に微笑みや楽しみを提供することができると知った。それは単純ながら強力なメッセージだった――忘れかけていた小さな幸せを、日常の中に見つけ出すことの大切さを。En: And Yumi realized that by accidentally bowing to a vending machine instead of a person, she could offer smiles and amusement to others. It was a simple yet powerful message - the importance of rediscovering small joys that we often forget amidst our daily lives.

"ebonics" is the older term for what is now known as "African-American Vernacular English" or AAVE. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_Vernacular_English I guess "ebony and ivory" and Ebony Magazine are the two main uses of "ebony" I can think of in pop culture. Ebony, the wood, is quite cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebony The eccentric wheel is used in mechanical engineering. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentric_(mechanism) The word of the episode is "eccentric". I think I need more eccentricity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentricity_(behavior) But eccentricity in math looks like it's more than I want to think about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentricity_(mathematics) Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757

In The Story of Follies: Architectures of Eccentricity (Reaktion, 2023), Celia Fisher presents an amusing, informative guide to a fanciful and charming building, the folly. Are they frivolous or practical? Follies are buildings constructed primarily for decoration, but suggest another purpose through their appearance. In this superbly illustrated book Celia Fisher describes follies in their historical and architectural context, looks at their social and political significance and highlights their relevance today. She explores follies built in protest, follies in oriental and gothic styles, animal-related follies, waterside follies and grottoes, and, finally, follies in glass and steel. Featuring many fine illustrations, from historical paintings to contemporary photographs and prints, and taking in follies from Great Britain, Ireland and throughout Europe and beyond, this is an amusing and informative guide to fanciful, charming buildings. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

On episode 165, we welcome Eric Wilson to discuss how to embrace the weird parts of ourselves and why it's important to do so, various exercises to help us along the way, why being diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder caused Eric to feel like an incompetent father, how psychotherapy helped him embrace the parts of himself that could make him feel like a good dad, our fear of the strange and attraction to it, the importance of creating new habits to cultivate new parts of yourself, why there's no such thing as a “true self,” learning to create new and more complex interpretations of ourselves and the world, how Eric helped his students become more passionate about literature, and the importance of living for oneself and embracing the purposeless life. Eric G. Wilson is the Thomas H. Pritchard Professor of English at Wake Forest University. He is the author of books Against Happiness: In Praise of Melancholy, an LA Times bestseller; Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck: Why We Can't Look Away; and Keep it Fake: Inventing an Authentic Life, as well as many other books exploring connections among literature, film, and psychology. His newest book, available now, is called How to Be Weird: An Off-Kilter Guide to Living a One-of-a-Kind Life. | Eric G.
