We're delighted to be joined this week by the incredibly talented Ellen Winter, musician, writer, and teaching artist extraordinaire! First, Zach brings us a Reddit query which we immediately decide is a horror movie, and what follows is a quest to decide just how weird a horror movie we're making. Then Gabriel puts us all on blast with the story of a specialized cafe for writers in Japan, and we turn it into a story that is absolutely not about writers but is about creativity on a deadline and a young producer who must contend with the most dysfunctional band of all time. Then Ellen comes back to us with an idea of her own: a short but evocative missed connection from Craigslist, which we turn into a twisted reckoning between Nick Cage and Cate Blanchett which is also obviously a meet cute; then we talk to Ellen about the importance of play and jam sessions to the creative process, how to get started and think about the component parts of a piece, and how to plug into what you're most excited about. Plus: a pre-wrapped A24 movie, an impressive amount of surveillance, a Miyazaki liminal multiverse, some perpetually too hot tea, and Adam Drivers all the way down. If you want to check out Ellen's work, go listen to Every Feeling I've Ever Felt, 36 Questions, and follow her on Twitter.

DANISH VERSION: Radiovagabond.dk This episode is dedicated to the people of Nicaragua. Right now the country is going through the worst trouble since the civil war ended in 1990. Hundreds have been killed since the protests broke out in April this year. I did talk to people who were unhappy with the president and the system but when I was there in August 2017, everything was peaceful. I really hope that everything will come back to normal, so the country can prosper. MY NEXT HOME IN CENTRAL AMERICA My flight from Chicago touches down in Managua in the afternoon and after a 45-minute drive to Granada, I arrive at my next home. It's a called Paraiso Granada. The next two and a half weeks I'm staying in a wonderful apartment here in the center of Granada. It's way bigger than what I need. I have two big bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a huge living room. At the end of that, there is a wonderful kitchen. Total luxury. I'm on the first floor and from my balcony, I have a great view of the courtyard and the pool right next to the restaurant. Paraiso Granada is about 5 minutes walk from Calle La Calzada, a lively street with a lot of restaurants and bars, and at about 6 blocks from the biggest lake in the country, Lago Cocibolca. Granada is a city in western Nicaragua 27 miles south-east of Managua, the capital of Nicaragua. With an estimated population of 125,000 Granada is Nicaragua's sixth most populous city. A DUTCH MANAGER OF THE HOTEL The hotel manager, Ellen Winter is originally from The Nederlands. She came to Nicaragua in 2001 and is now living in Granada with her family. And her extended family - as she calls the staff at the hotel. I ask Ellen what it's like managing people from another continent than what we're used to in Western Europe. She tells me that the can feel that the education level is not as high, so sometimes she has to say things many times. But she also sees the staff coming up with ideas on their own. Ellen says that the city hasn't changed so much since she came to the country 16 years ago. Maybe more cars, more traffic, and more tourists, but other than that not too much. The people are still happy and friendly. And that's the number one reason why she fell in love with this country. - In Holland we have to make appointments two weeks in advance, Ellen says. Here if I call friends and invite them to come over, people will show up. People here work to live and not live to work. She's got a Nicaraguan husband and two children, a 4-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl. And none of them speak any Dutch. It's all only Spanish. I WENT TO SPANISH CLASS One of the things, I promised myself to do when I got to Central America, was to find a Spanish teacher to improve my Spanish. So I find a teacher and get five days of private tutoring. The day before my first class I do a warm-up alone with one of the language apps out there. I feel it's a good way to get my level just a little bit up before I meet my teacher, Vanessa. And once in school, I meet in her in a small classroom. We're at a table in one corner and we start talking. In Spanish. I'm lucky to get a good teacher. She doesn't allow me to speak in English but is good at understanding my broken Spanish, and corrects me when I'm saying it wrong. I'm not mentioning her name. With the current situation in the country, it's not safe for her, with what she says at the end. In the episode, you can hear us talking about my travels. I tell her that I'm trying to visit all the countries in the world. “Todo los paises en el mundo". As you can hear in the episode, my Spanish is anything but perfect. But also you can hear me doing my first Spanish interview after five days. It's still not good but definitely better. CATTLE COMPANY HELPS LOCAL FARMERS I also met Fernando Montiel, the General Manager of a cattle company with 3,000 cattle. He tells me of the idea behind the company. Basically, it's to help the local farmers and make money while doing so. The company lets the farmers take care of the cows, and together they get a better price for the cows at the slaughterhouse. This can potentially double the income of the farmers. And the investors make money at the same time. Truly a win-win situation. NICA TIME Maybe you remember my episodes from the Bahamas where we talked a lot of talk about “island time”. You know, where the locals have a relaxed view on meeting times and appointments. The same thing exists here. They just call it “Nica-Time” and when I ask Ellen if there is anything bad to say about life in Nicaragua, she tells me that this is the thing that annoys her the most. Even after 16 years in the country she still can't get used to this. DISCLAIMER Through my part-ownership of a group of radio stations that I co-founded back in Denmark, I also own a small part of Paraiso Granada, the cattle company and an eco-lodge called Manku Lake Paradise (that we will hear more about in the next episode. I mean every word I've said in this episode, and even though I was able to stay here for free, I wasn't obligated … or paid to say anything I didn't mean.

ENGLISH VERSION: TheRadioVagabond.com Denne episode er dedikeret til befolkningen i Nicaragua. Lige nu oplever landet de værste uroligheder siden borgerkrigen sluttede i 1990. Hundredvis er blevet dræbt, siden de brød ud i april i år. Jeg talte til folk, der var utilfredse med præsident Ortega og med systemet, men da jeg var der i august 2017, var alt fredeligt. Jeg håber virkelig, at alt kommer tilbage til det normale, så landet kan trives. MIN FØRSTE HJEM I MELLEMAMERIKA Mit fly fra Chicago lander i Managua om eftermiddagen, og efter en 45 minutters kørsel til Granada, ankommer jeg til mit næste hjem. Det hedder Paraiso Granada. De næste to og en halv uge opholder jeg mig i en vidunderlig lejlighed her i centrum af Granada. Den er langt større, end hvad jeg har brug for. Jeg har to store soveværelser, tre badeværelser og en kæmpestor stue. I den ene ende af den er der et vidunderligt køkken. Total luksus. Jeg bor på første sal, og fra min balkon har jeg en fantastisk udsigt over gården og poolen lige ved siden af restauranten. Paraiso Granada ligger cirka 5 minutters gang fra Calle La Calzada, en livlig gade med mange restauranter og barer og ca. en kilometer fra den største sø i landet, Lago Cocibolca. Granada er en by i det vestlige Nicaragua, 45 km sydøst for Managua, hovedstaden i Nicaragua. Med en befolkning på omkring 125.000 er Granada Nicaraguas sjette mest befolkede by. EN HOLLANDSK HOTELDIREKTØR Hotellets manager, Ellen Winter, er oprindeligt fra Holland. Hun kom til Nicaragua i 2001 og bor nu i Granada sammen med sin familie. Og hendes "udvidede familie" - som hun kalder personalet på hotellet. Jeg spørger Ellen, hvordan det er at lede mennesker fra et andet kontinent end det, vi er vant til i Vesteuropa. Hun fortæller mig, at hun godt kan mærke, at uddannelsesniveauet ikke er så højt, så nogle gange må hun sige ting mange gange. Men hun ser også personalet tage initiativ og komme med ideer på egen hånd. Ifølge Ellen har byen ikke har ændret sig så meget siden, hun kom til landet for 16 år siden. Der er måske flere biler, mere trafik og flere turister, men bortset fra det, er der ikke sket så meget. Folk er stadig glade og venlige, og det er den største årsag til, at hun blev forelsket i dette land. - I Holland skal vi lave aftaler to uger i forvejen, siger Ellen. Her er det anderledes. Hvis jeg ringer til venner og inviterer dem til at komme over i aften, vil folk komme. Folk her arbejder for at leve og lever ikke for at arbejde. Hun har en nicaraguansk mand og to børn, en 4-årig dreng og en 8-årig pige. Og ingen af dem taler nogen hollandsk. Det hele foregår på spansk. TAG MED MIG I SKOLE En af de ting, jeg lovede mig selv at gøre, så snart jeg kom til Mellemamerika, var, at finde en spansk lærer for at forbedre mit spanske. Så det gør jeg. Jeg finder en lærer og får fem dage privat undervisning. Dagen før min første klasse laver jeg en opvarmning alene med en app. Jeg føler, det er en god måde at varme lidt op, før jeg møder min lærer, Vanessa. I det lille klasseværelse begynder vi at tale. På spansk. Min lærer er meget pædagogisk og hun tillader mig ikke at tale på engelsk. Hun er dog god til at forstå mit "skralde-spanske", og retter mig, når jeg siger det forkert. Jeg nævner ikke hendes navn, hverken her eller i episoden af hensyn til hendes sikkerhed. Med den nuværende situation er det ikke så godt at være kritisk overfor styret i landet. I denne episode kan du høre os tale om mine rejser. Jeg fortæller hende, at jeg forsøger at besøge alle lande i verden. "Todo los paises en el mundo". Som du vil kunne høre, er min spanske alt andet end perfekt. Men du kommer også til at høre mig at lave mit første spanske interview efter fem dage. Det er stadig ikke godt, men absolut bedre. KVÆGSELSKAB HJÆLPER LOKALE LANDBRUGERE Jeg mødte også Fernando Montiel, direktøren for et selskab med 3000 kvæg. Han fortæller mig om tanken bag virksomheden. Dybest set er det at hjælpe de lokale landmænd og samtidig tjene penge. Virksomheden investerer i kvæg og lader bønderne tage sig af dem. Sammen får de en bedre pris for køerne på slagteriet. Dette er alt sammen noget, der potentielt kan fordoble landmændenes indkomst. Og investorerne tjener penge på samme tid. Virkelig en win-win situation. NICA-TIME Måske kan du huske mine episoder fra Bahamas, hvor vi talte meget om "island-time". Du ved, hvor lokalbefolkningen har en afslappet udsigt til mødetider og aftaler. Det samme findes her. De kalder det bare "Nica-Time", og når jeg spørger Ellen, om der er noget dårligt at sige om livet i Nicaragua, siger hun, at dette er den ting, der irriterer hende mest. Selv efter 16 år i landet kan hun stadig ikke vænne sig til dette. DISCLAIMER Gennem mit medejerskab af Radio ABC Gruppen ejer jeg også en lille del af Paraiso Granada, kvægfirmaet og Manku Lake Paradise (som vi vil høre mere om i den næste episode). Jeg står dog inde for hvert ord, jeg har sagt i denne episode.

Chamber Band have made it their mission to emotionally disarm you while exploring beloved nerd worlds. In their debut record, Deities, they cheekily adventured through Dungeons & Dragons, in Careers they braved The Hunger Games, and now in Governor's Square they're taking on H.G.

Love, loss, and existential but infinitely relatable quandaries await you - and with those universal themes, captivating music. This is no mere fanfiction; Chamber Band cuts their source material to the core. Join Cap and vocalists/ songwriters Chris Littler and Ellen Winter as they explore the new record and how it fuses two beloved sci-fi classics into one potent narrative. But that's far from all Chamber Band has been up to - they're the writers behind the podcast smash-hit 36 Questions! Hear about how this musical/ audio drama hybrid came to be, the challenges of drastically changing up both formats, and getting props from the creator of Hamilton. We also debut a new track and unleash an unheard rarity from the archives.
