Podcasts about Edgar Allan Poe

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Creativity - Episode 408  - Rent a Black Cat!Hopefully this will be a really fun episode of Celebrate Creativity.  I want to illustrate what constitutes an effective prompt in the most entertaining way, - probably your prompt will be for business, literary, and other educational purposes - but here I am using the imaginary situation of Edgar Allan Poe applying to a company that rents pets. I never really asked the AI to answer using Poe's style - which I could have and probably should have - but it went ahead and answered as Poe might have.  And note how the AI picked up on the use of Poe's language and easily participated in the online role - I would like to thank technology educator Dave Birsss for the idea of writing to apply for a job with an imaginary pet store, although I don't know if he was thinking about Edgar Allan Poe!My prompt was:Starting with episode 400 of my podcast about Edgar Allan Poe and other 19th century writers, I am broadening the emphasis of my podcast to include such areas as creativity and AI. Of course one of the things that I want to try and get across is what AI can do through an effective prompt. Would you imagine that you are Edgar Allan Poe and have come to the realization that you need a new job? You are applying to a company that rents black cats. Would you write a letter to the company of why you would be a good person for that position in their company? Note that I am explaining my situation -Unfortunately, I did explain the STYLE that I want Mr. Poe to answer the letter, but the AI seemed to automatically know to answer as Poe might have using his style by literally comparing the thousands of examples of Poe's writings that it has access to, and answers using those examples - a task that would be humanly impossible. In a real world situation, it would be preferable for you to come out and explain the style that you want Mr. Poe - or whoever you are communicating with - to use.   But note that without really prompting, the AI picks up on the style of Poe and replies to each situation cleverly and appropriately - without missing a beat. It would take me forever to even approach such a task - and I have read a lot of Poe.  But back to AI Poe's answer - Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessagePoetry possesses a unique ability to capture moments of national crisis in ways that speak across centuries. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "The Ship of State" – the stirring final stanza of his 1849 poem "The Building of the Ship" – emerged during a time when America stood at the precipice of disaster. With slavery debates raging and North-South tensions escalating toward civil war, Longfellow crafted a maritime metaphor that would become one of America's most enduring poetic touchstones.Through vivid nautical imagery, Longfellow transforms America into a vessel navigating treacherous waters. "Humanity with all its fears, with all the hopes of future years, is hanging breathless on thy fate," he writes, capturing both the fragility and significance of the American experiment. The genius lies in how he acknowledges the storms battering the ship – political divisions, moral crises, constitutional questions – while maintaining unwavering faith in the journey. "Fear not each sudden sound and shock," he reassures, distinguishing between temporary turbulence and structural damage to democracy itself.This poem transcended its historical moment to become a recurring national refrain. Abraham Lincoln reportedly found solace in these verses during the Civil War, repeating "Sail on, O Ship of State" amid America's darkest hours. Presidents, writers, and citizens across generations have returned to Longfellow's maritime metaphor when navigating national crises. As we approach America's 250th anniversary amid renewed polarization, the poem's final rallying cry – "Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our tears, our faith triumphant o'er our fears, are all with thee" – reminds us that the American journey requires collective investment and shared purpose. Join us as we explore how poetry speaks to the soul of a nation in crisis and why, as JFK noted, "when power corrupts, poetry cleanses." Take a moment this week to discover or rediscover the power of poetic wisdom in your own life.Key Points from the Episode:• Influential Americans including Edgar Allan Poe, William Faulkner, and JFK have all emphasized poetry's essential role in society• Longfellow wrote "The Building of the Ship" during 1849's political powder keg, with slavery debates threatening to fracture the nation• The poem's final stanza transforms a ship into a powerful metaphor for the United States navigating stormy waters• Abraham Lincoln reportedly found solace in these verses during the Civil War, according to his secretary John Hay• The poem's imagery of storms, false lights, and steadfast sailing continues to resonate in discussions of modern political polarization• Longfellow's vision reminds us that democracy requires collective effort and faith in the national project• JFK's insight that "when power corrupts, poetry cleanses" captures the enduring importance of poetic wisdomKeep fighting the good fight and read some poetry this week.Other resources: Want to leave a review?

In this episode of Terror Talk Podcast, we're diving deep into the wild, weird, and wonderfully low-budget world of Roger Corman, the godfather of indie horror and cult cinema. From gothic Edgar Allan Poe adaptations to biker gangs and blood-soaked exploitation flicks, Corman did it all—and on a shoestring budget.We chat about Corman's signature filmmaking style, his unapologetically fast shooting schedules, and the way he could turn a dime into dread. We explore his most iconic horror films, his love of dramatic lighting and moody monologues, and how he shaped the future of horror by mentoring legends like Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, and James Cameron.

Eine niederträchtige, aber leider vollkommen straffreie Betrugsmasche erwartet John Watson und Sherlock Holmes in der Krimi-Kurzgeschichte Ein Fall geschickter Täuschung (A Case of Identity) von Arthur Conan Doyle. Was ist nur mit dem Verlobten von Miss Mary Sutherland passiert? Noch vor Kurzem schienen beide Hals über Kopf verliebt, doch nachdem er in die Kutsche zur Trauung gestiegen ist, wart der charmante Hosmer Angel nicht mehr gesehen. Mister James Windibank, der Stiefvater von Miss Sutherland, scheint der Verlobung seiner Stieftochter generell eher zwiegespalten gegenüberzustehen. Ob Holmes und Watson den Fall lösen können? --- In der nächsten Folge lesen wir Das ovale Porträt (The Oval Portrait) von Edgar Allan Poe.

Daily QuoteBelieve nothing you hear, and only one half that you see. (Edgar Allan Poe)Poem of the DayThe Purple CowGelett BurgessBeauty of Words从百草园到三味书屋鲁迅

“El corazón delator” es la confesión de un asesino. El narrador, cuya identidad nunca se revela del todo, intenta convencer al lector de que no está loco, aunque ha cometido un crimen espeluznante: matar a un anciano, simplemente porque no soportaba su “ojo de buitre”. Lo asesina de forma meticulosa, escondiendo el cuerpo bajo el suelo. Pero cuando llegan los agentes de policía y todo parece controlado, el narrador empieza a oír el latido del corazón de su víctima, un golpeteo ensordecedor que solo él escucha. Al final, enloquecido por la culpa, se delata a sí mismo.

Con renovado entusiasmo, el Taller Permanente de Literatura César David Rincón abre una nueva etapa en la Librería Puerto de Libros, y en este episodio te contamos todo sobre su sesión inaugural del jueves 13 de febrero. Bajo la conducción del poeta y promotor cultural Luis Perozo Cervantes, conversamos sobre los géneros literarios, su evolución desde Aristóteles hasta nuestros días, y cómo el estudio formal de la literatura puede potenciar la creatividad de quienes escriben desde el corazón.Exploramos el legado de autores como Edgar Allan Poe, Horacio Quiroga y Guy de Maupassant, y reflexionamos sobre cómo las formas literarias dialogan con la historia, la sensibilidad y los temas del mundo contemporáneo. Además, te compartimos un ejercicio creativo que convirtió el poema El día que me quieras de Amado Nervo en narraciones literarias escritas por los propios talleristas.Este episodio es una invitación a sumarte al taller, a descubrir cómo se vive la literatura en comunidad, y a conocer los próximos eventos que sacudirán la escena poética de Maracaibo, como la lectura en la Biblioteca Jesús Enrique Lozada y el 11.º Slam Poético en Puerto de Libros.

Edogawa Rampo —seudónimo de Tarō Hirai— fue pionero de la literatura de misterio japonesa.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate creativity - Episode 402 - The Future of History - My hope is that listeners get more out of their AI interactions - and I certainly will be helping you along the way.  I also plan nothing less than for "Celebrate Creativity" to become a vibrant, intergenerational hub for exploring the enduring power of human imagination, supported by the exciting possibilities of modern technology.You might  "Use an AI bot (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity), and ask it to compare and contrast the poetic styles of Edgar Allan Poe and Walt Whitman. Specifically, ask it to discuss their use of meter, imagery, and themes of nature/death. After you get the AI's response, read one poem by each author (e.g., Poe's 'Annabel Lee' and Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!'). Do you agree with the AI's analysis? Where does it align, and where does your own reading diverge?  Of course you can obviously do a lot more, but we get into that later.I'm just throwing out these ideas, and showing you what can be done - which is very important - not necessarily asking that you do these activities right now - but we certainly will get into that and a lot more later.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

1947 marked the end of an era on Suspense as Roma Wines (“that's R-O-M-A”) ended its sponsorship of the program. But before it parted ways with “radio's outstanding theater of thrills,” it brought another big line-up of stars to the microphone, and this week we'll hear my favorite episodes from the year. Van Heflin stars as an executive who resorts to less than ethical methods to climb the corporate ladder in “Three Blind Mice” (originally aired on CBS on January 30, 1947). Howard da Silva plays a dogged cop out to prove Jack Webb is guilty of murder in Cornell Woolrich's “You Take Ballistics” (originally aired on CBS on March 13, 1947). Kirk Douglas stars in two shows - first as a man who finds murder a more efficient method of divorce in “Community Property” (originally aired on CBS on April 10, 1947) and then as an author who discovers a lost work of Edgar Allan Poe and passes it off as his own in “The Story of Markham's Death” (originally aired on CBS on October 2, 1947). Finally, Ozzie and Harriet star as a married couple who take steps to accelerate the collection of their inheritance from an ailing uncle in “Too Little to Live On” (originally aired on CBS on December 26, 1947).

Richard Kopley, Distinguished Professor of English, Emeritus, Penn State DuBois, has written and edited books that focus on nineteenth-century American literature, with particular attention to Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne.  They are accessible and revealing works of analysis and discovery.

Seeing it in action, anybody would quaver in alarm: What hath Farnsworth overwrought? The Big Bounce by Walter S. Tevis. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Today's tale comes from an author whose name may not be as instantly recognizable as some, but whose work has left a lasting impact on both science fiction and American literature.Born in San Francisco in 1928, Walter Tevis spent much of his childhood in poor health, even spending a year in a convalescent home while his family moved to Kentucky without him. He was 11 when he took a train across the country by himself to reunite with his family. That early experience of isolation would later echo through many of his stories.While best known for his six novels — including the science fiction classic The Man Who Fell to Earth, The Hustler, and The Color of Money, all of which became major motion pictures and The Queen's Gambit which was adapted in a Netflix miniseries, he also penned over a dozen short stories.From the pages of Galaxy Science Fiction Magazine in February 1958, turn to page 37, The Big Bounce by Walter S.

Brocarde is the creator of an enchanting world where dark, haunting aesthetics meet passion-fuelled lyrics and design. Her latest single "Identity Theft" was produced by Chris Collier (Korn, Mick Mars). Brocarde is a dynamic storyteller who marries both music and fashion in an orchestral explosion, designed to make the ears and eyes bleed. A one-woman horror story, if centuries aligned, Brocarde could almost be the secret lovechild of Edgar Allan Poe and Sylvia Plath. In what could only be described as an effervescent melting pot, Brocarde's bubbling cauldron is peppered with hints of Little House on The Prairie, and seasoned with remnants of the Addams family values: she's an all-consuming artist who's not for the faint-hearted. Brocarde arrived on the music scene in 2019 presenting her debut single Last Supper. With its biblical relatability and an army of sinister pigs, the music video depicted a twisted fairy tale that whetted the appetite of her loyal supporters. She was hailed as "One to Watch" by Planet Rock Magazine, and secured airplay on Kerrang!, Planet Rock and BBC Introducing.  www.Instagram.com/brocarde website www.Brocarde.com  About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Getty Images photographer.

El Dorado is applied to a legendary New World story in which precious stones were found in fabulous abundance along with gold coins. The legend of the Seven Cities of Gold became mixed with the stories of El Dorado, which was sometimes said to be one of the seven cities. Sir Walter Raleigh of Roanoke fame would later take up the search for the mythical kingdom. Francisco Vazquez de Coronado was a Spanish conquistador who led an expedition from Mexico through the southwestern USA in search of the fabled Cities of Cibola in the sixteenth century. He had hoped to reach the continent’s El Dorado located throughout the pueblos of the New Mexico Territory. E128.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 386 - What Did Whitman Sound Like, 1In previous years, I have always done episodes about Walt Whitman simply by talking about his life. I did not use the format of me talking in the first person, and asking questions from Walt Whitman because I simply didn't know where to start regarding the topic of what did Walt Whitman sound like.  There is a controversial recording of what may have been Whitman's voice, but it is a very poor quality and isn't much help at all.So I decided to use perplexity AI in finding out information about Walt Whitman's voice - what he may have sounded like and how I could get the spirit of that across and a podcast. So I started with this prompt - and note that - and this is something I will say over and over again - you need to give a lot of information in your prompt to an AI bot even if it doesn't seem necessary to get a good response. This is my prompt regarding getting the qualities for Walt Whitman's voice, and I apologize for the length. - but you really need to try and be thorough.I do a podcast called celebrate Poe about the life and works of Edgar Allan Poe. It has had almost 400 episodes and downloads in more than 100 countries and territories. The format is that I interview the imaginary ghost of Edgar Allan Poe regarding his works and life. Of course I use my voice as the interviewer, and a Southern Voice as Edgar Poe. I used to be a historical re-enactor as Poe, and use a deep southern drawl - one that most authorities believe that Edgar Poe would've used, being from Richmond and not influenced by such sources as television, movies, and the Internet. And I am from Staunton Virginia, so a southern draw is not hard for me. Now fo pride month - june - and maybe longer - I am playing the part of an interviewer while interviewing the the imaginary ghost of Walt Whitman - using my natural voice and Walt Whitman responding in the first person. My question is do you have any advice on coming up with a voice to represent Walt Whitman for the podcast? Of course this is purely for audio, so I can contort my face all kinds of positions - but what qualities should I go for in coming up with a Voice for Walt WhitmanThank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Unusual Deaths The history of unusual deaths is a fascinating, if sometimes macabre, collection of bizarre and unexpected demises that span centuries and cultures. These stories often highlight the unpredictable nature of life, the oddities of human behavior, and sometimes, the limits of scientific understanding. While many accounts are well-documented, others exist as legend or have been subject to modern re-evaluation.Deaths by Unforeseen Accidents and Objects:Aeschylus (c. 525/524 – c. 456/455 BC): The ancient Greek playwright is famously (and possibly apocryphally) said to have died when an eagle dropped a tortoise on his bald head, mistaking it for a rock to break the tortoise's shell. Ironically, he was said to have gone outside to avoid a prophecy about a falling object.Hans Staininger (16th Century): The burgomaster of Braunau am Inn, Austria, was known for his extraordinarily long beard (reportedly 4.5 feet or 1.4 meters). He died when he tripped over his own beard during a fire evacuation, breaking his neck. His beard is reportedly still preserved in a local museum.James Betts (1667): An English suitor who, while hidden in a wardrobe by his lover to avoid her father, became trapped and suffocated to death.Adolf Frederick, King of Sweden (1710–1771): This monarch is reported to have died from overeating. On February 12, 1771, after consuming a massive meal of lobster, caviar, sauerkraut, kippers, and 14 servings of his favorite dessert (semla, a sweet bun), he succumbed to digestive problems.Tycho Brahe (1546–1601): The eccentric Danish astronomer reportedly died from a burst bladder after refusing to leave a banquet to relieve himself, considering it impolite. Modern analysis of his remains in 2010 found no evidence of poison, supporting this theory.Clement Vallandigham (1871): A lawyer and politician who accidentally shot himself in court while demonstrating how a victim in a murder case might have shot himself. He was attempting to prove that the victim could have self-inflicted the fatal wound.Franz Reichelt (1912): Known as the "Flying Tailor," Reichelt was an Austrian-born French tailor who died testing his self-designed parachute from the Eiffel Tower. His invention failed, and he fell to his death.Roger Wallace (2002): A 60-year-old man who was flying his 5-foot wingspan remote-control plane when he lost sight of it in the sun. The plane struck him in the chest, killing him.Jose Luis Ochoa (2011): A man in California died after a cockerel (rooster) participating in an illegal cock-fighting match stabbed him in the leg with a knife that had been strapped to it for fighting.Brittanie Cecil (2002): A 13-year-old girl who died from injuries at an NHL game after being struck in the temple by a deflected hockey puck. She was the first and only fan fatality in the league's history.Chandler Hugh Jackson (2005): A 12-year-old boy who died after falling on his 9-iron golf club, which broke and pierced his aorta through his chest.Steve Irwin (2006): The "Crocodile Hunter" and Australian wildlife expert, died after a stingray's barb pierced his chest while he was filming in shallow water off the Great Barrier Reef.Deaths with Mysterious or Disputed Circumstances:Alexander the Great (356–323 BC): Died at the age of 32 after a two-week illness. Theories range from malaria, typhoid fever, or West Nile encephalitis, to even Guillain-Barré syndrome, which could have left him paralyzed and appearing dead before he truly was. His body reportedly showed no signs of decay for six days after his "death." and there's moreGrigori Rasputin (1869–1916):.Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849): The Somerton Man (1948):Elisa Lam (2013): The Dyatlov Pass Incident (1959):#UnusualDeaths, #StrangeDeaths, #BizarreDeaths ,#HistoricalMysteries ,#FatalFollies ,#DeathByDesign, #UnexplainedDeaths ,#MacabreHistory ,#OddDemises, #TrueCrimeStrangeCases, #WhenDeathGetsWeird, #HistoryFacts #CreepyButTrue,

Elizabeth Barrett (1806-1861) was one of the most prolific and accomplished poets of the Victorian age, an inspiration to Emily Dickinson, Oscar Wilde, Edgar Allan Poe, and countless others. And yet, her life was full of cloistered misery, as her father insisted that she should never marry. And then, the clouds lifted, and a letter arrived. It was from the poet Robert Browning (1812-1889), admiring her from afar, declaring his love. How did these two poets find each other? What kind of life did they share afterwards? And what dark secrets had led to her father's restrictions…and how might that have affected his daughter's poetry? Host Jacke Wilson takes a look at the story of the Brownings.

But when she vanished one summer Sunday, and her body was found floating in the Hudson near Hoboken days later, her fame turned into infamy. Was it murder? A botched abortion? Or something more sinister?Join us as we dig into one of America's first media-fueled murder mysteries—one that inspired Poe's fiction and left behind more questions than answers.

Do IQ tests measure your fixed intellect, or is there more to the equation? Despite their dark history, Michael Regilio bears good news on Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by skeptic, comedian, and podcaster Michael Regilio!Jordan's must reads (including books from this episode): AcceleratEdFull show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1159On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:In 1927, the US Supreme Court supported forced sterilization of "feeble-minded" people based on IQ scores. Over 7,000 were sterilized in North Carolina alone. Nazi war criminals later cited American eugenics programs as inspiration.Early IQ tests asked about Edgar Allan Poe and bowling terminology. These measured cultural knowledge, not intelligence, disadvantaging anyone without specific educational or social backgrounds. This could mean the difference between becoming an officer or cannon fodder in WWI.Researcher James Robert Flynn determined that IQ scores have risen three points per decade throughout the 20th century. But contrary to claims made in the 1994 book The Bell Curve, this "Flynn effect" isn't due to evolution or genetics, but factors like better nutrition, cleaner water, smaller families, and more cognitively demanding environments.ChatGPT scores 99.9th percentile verbally but fails simple logic puzzles humans solve instantly. This demonstrates how intelligence isn't a single number — it's more like a jazz ensemble where mathematical reasoning, emotional intelligence, creativity, and street smarts all play different instruments. Trying to capture that symphony with one test is like describing a rainbow using only numbers.IQ tests aren't worthless — they're just misunderstood. Use them as diagnostic tools, not destiny predictors. Low pattern recognition score? Practice puzzles. Weak verbal reasoning? Read more complex texts. Identify specific cognitive areas to strengthen rather than accepting a single number as your limit. Your IQ isn't your written-in-stone fate — it's your starting coordinates on an infinitely expandable map of human potential.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

On October 3rd, 1849, Edgar Allan Poe was found wandering the streets of Baltimore, delirious, disheveled, and dressed in someone else's clothes. He was taken to a hospital, barely coherent, slipping in and out of consciousness. For the next four days, he was gripped by hallucinations, unable to explain what had happened or how he got there. He repeatedly called out the name “Reynolds,” a man no one could identify, before dying under murky circumstances. To this day, no one knows exactly how or why Poe died—and no autopsy was ever performed.In this episode, the boys dive into one of the most puzzling deaths in American literary history. Was Poe a victim of "cooping," a form of election-day voter fraud where victims were drugged, disguised, and forced to vote multiple times? Or was his death the result of alcohol withdrawal, rabies, syphilis, or even a planned murder? Some believe he may have had a secret medical condition, while others suspect foul play tied to a romantic rivalry.Theories are as numerous as they are bizarre, and the lack of medical records or police reports only deepens the mystery. Even Poe's burial was hasty and unceremonious—his grave went unmarked for years.From his eerie final days to the symbolic poetry of his death, this episode unravels the strange case of a man whose life was steeped in darkness—and whose death may be his greatest unsolved mystery.Originally recorded as Mini Ep 2 for Patreons Only. www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast
