Podcasts about elves

Before Tolkien turned them into noble archers, medieval people believed elves were dangerous beings who shot invisible arrows that caused mental illness, stabbing pains, and livestock death.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Elves – they are portrayed as helpful and joyous when helping a shoemaker, or a jolly old man with a white beard at the north pole. But they are portrayed as evil in some other cultures – even claimed to be in league with the devil himself. And what do they have to do with Cain and Abel? We'll look at the history of elves. (A History of Elves) *** There was a struggle, one of the men fell through a window to the street below, breaking his neck. A case that practically solved itself according to police. That is… until they began questioning those involved. Then it began to get very murky, and a bit bizarre. (The Strange Death of Thomas Farrant) *** Do you believe in vampires? If you are thinking of the undead, immortal, blood-sucking creatures of the night who speak with a Hungarian accent, then probably not. Or if you are thinking of the kind of vampires with pale skin and mussed hair that sparkle, then definitely not. But that doesn't mean that vampires don't exist. They in fact do roam the earth in human form, and I'll tell you about them. (Are Vampires Real?) *** It's the story of two Georges, one with his father's name and one with not quite his father's name, one legitimate, one illegitimate – with the latter being very good with elephants. I'll tell you the odd life story of George Nyleve. (The Strange Story of George Nyleve) *** “Be quiet and give me the money in the cash drawer… This gun talks.” And with those words began a string of bank robberies conducted not by a gang of outlaws, or even a couple of bad men… but by one little old lady.

Rob and Val are back with another patent-pending LORE video, this time deep-diving the Grand Cathay book to answer the eternal question: WHAT'S GOING ON WITH CATHAYAN LOGISTICS? The Old World is a mess. The Empire's leadership is distracted, the Elves are ignoring their DMs, and Frydaal the Chainmaker is having the time of her life carving up the Westerlands. With no one else stepping up, it's time for the Dragon siblings to assemble a fleet, awaken some Terracotta Sentinels, and sail halfway across the world to sort everyone out. Join us as we talk geopolitics, the economics of the Old Silk Road, why there are so many boats, and whether or not Vampirates are confirmed (they are).

The origins of modern man is a bush, not a tree, and it spans somewhere between 5 to 7 million years. From some common ancestor, chimpanzees and what would become us split. To help us explore this bush, we enlisted Archeologist/Anthropologist, Professor John Hoopes. What's an Australopithecus v a Homo? Who's Lucy? Were Neatherthals giants or Judd Hirsh or neither? Were Denisovans giants or Elves or Al Leong or none? Are Humanoid reptilians possible on Earth? Are Paracus skulls a different species?All these questions and SEVEN MILLION YEARS covered.P.S. since the time of this recording, a new australopithecus variant that lived after Lucy has been identified!

On this episode of the 3 Speech Podcast, Darius, Leo, and Nico tackle everything from Hunter Biden's crack-smoking wisdom to race and breakups in celebrity culture. They roast a wild “me-too” story involving Will Poulter, share their worst dumping tales, and debate who's really centering themselves in “black and brown spaces.” Plus: Nico reveals why he's training his kids like Spartans and Leo nearly loses a finger to a fake donut.

When Swedish twins Ursula and Sabina Eriksson suddenly began throwing themselves into speeding traffic on a UK motorway—captured on camera by a reality TV crew—it was only the beginning of a shared psychotic break that would lead to superhuman strength, psychiatric hospitalization, and ultimately murder.==========HOUR ONE: In 1761, a young Frenchman died violently. This tragedy would lead to what is still one of that country's most famous cases of judicial injustice. Assuming, of course, that it truly was an injustice at all. (The Mysterious Death of Marc Antoine Calas) *** Most know them as “The Hidden Folk.” The elusive and magical residents of Iceland, who live inside rocks and sometimes play games with unsuspecting passers-by. Are they real? That's a complicated question, if you ask Icelanders. (The Elves of Iceland) *** As two boys were walking back to the house on their farm, a small stone rolled past them. Then a second one. They immediately thought some other boys were hiding in the scrub and throwing stones for a joke.  They couldn't have been more wrong. (Stone Throwing Spirits) *** Belle Gunness lured numerous suitors to her Indiana farm. Not to entertain them or to be courted by them. She simply wanted to kill them in cold blood and dump their bodies in her hog pen. (Belle Gunness – The Black Widow of the Midwest) *** "They're going to steal your organs!" screamed Sabina Eriksson, before running toward oncoming traffic on the M6 highway, having already been hit head-on by a Volkswagen. Her twin sister, Ursula, legs crushed by the truck that had just run her over, was spitting and screaming at paramedics on the side of the road. Now, many years after these events, we're still no closer to understanding the chaos that occurred over two days in 2008 involving psychotic twin sisters on a UK highway. (The Disturbing Case of the Eriksson Twins)==========HOUR TWO: In 1882 the Ma'amtrasna murders, the brutal killing of several members of the Joyce family in rural Galway, caused outrage in Irish society and remains one of the most notorious homicides in Irish history. However a few years later Cork was rocked by an equally heinous case which has largely been forgotten. We'll look at the brutal murders of four family members that took place in Castletownroche, Ireland. (The Castletownroche Murders) *** An Arizona family encounters a creature from the dark side of a Navajo legend. (The Arizona Skinwalker) *** John Blair liked to keep things “in the family”. But in his case, it wasn't just a saying. It was literal. Because John was infamous for being bigamous. (Bigamous Blair) *** Dozens of Korean War GI's claimed an unidentified flying object made them all sick. Theories range from high-tech Soviet death rays to extraterrestrials studying how we engage in battle to combat-stress-induced hallucinations. What actually happened? (The Korean War UFO)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Were people ever really tortured in Iron Maidens?

Zac Clark delves into the world of Pre-Modern Magic, sharing insights from his 9-10 years of experience with the format. He discusses the evolution of various deck archetypes, including control decks, Psychotog, Ponza Oath, and Landstill, while also exploring the decline of certain strategies like Tricks and Survival decks. The conversation highlights current trends in the format, such as Goblins and Elves, and emphasizes the importance of brewing strategies in a diverse and slower-paced environment.

  Led by the cries of someone in danger, the crew of the Little Snail have charged into the Celestial Echo of Redolencia, an otherworldly swampland where magic works differently and shadowy creatures flit between trees. The source of those screams was a Manakin scholar who'd wandered too far into the Echo and who now found himself face-to-face with a maneating orchid. Can these humble adventurers, still recovering from their own recent stumbles into danger, save this wandering researcher before he becomes plantfood?,  This week on Perpetua: Perpetua 09: Journey to the Bay Pt. 01 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.03] Ongoing Mysteries - Ancient Passikan Megadungeons [OMMD] I haven't actually been to any of these yet, but if you're able to get a perfect result on the big Redolencia puzzle, these all get marked on your map. What's really weird is that if you have a separate East campaign save going at the same time, they get marked on that save's map too!  In any case, I don't know specifics about them as dungeons yet (or even if you actually go to each of these in this game), but here's some bullet points on what I DO know some details about them based on the Prelude, item descriptions, and other world exploration I've done. So I've collected those details here. The Hanging Gardens of Rillspur This is obviously where Elena is from.  Towards the center of the western continent (aka Tidaline). Three rivers run out of it, west, east, and south. In the Prelude, Harlow went here and met some people in the “pleasure gardens” and maybe saved a kid's life, it wasn't really clear during the vignette. She's referenced it having a ton of floors in dialog, and the top floors are easy and her family runs a restaurant there. It's a water dungeon (or an ice dungeon?), really not clear, especially after Redolencia's revelations about the Ennead. The Passikan people/creatures there water (or ice?) magic while inside. There are some sort of magical mosaics. Milsource, Fallen Capital Was the capital of a huge empire on the eastern continent before the rise of the Elevana League and the Hundred Burroughs.  Apparently a really important river used to run out of here but it all dried up, or somehow “left” the capital? And that was the beginning of a huge downturn in the empire.  If this is the place that Glesi and Yukai's culture was originally from (or near) in the Prelude,  Maybe the place where Sourcerot, the curse that the Eastern party is investigating, is from. Definitely what it's named for. Duriel, The Splintered Colosseum In the Holy Protectorate of Placidia, which is the area north of the mountains on Tidaline. But it ISN'T the capital of that place, which is a city called Verus. Also came up during the Prelude. Harlow went here and saw a bunch of people acting out conflicts between various gods and spirits and ancient heroes? There wasn't really any clear structure that looked like a dungeon there, though. Very close to the the Addled Shore, which was like some sort of major fog monster? Not Clear!!! The Gleaming Fortress, Lumai One of the major city-states of the Elevana League. West of the big mountain range there. Presumably tied to the Light-blessed Elves and/or Lucena. Right on the big river that runs down the whole continent in like a boomerang shape. Mysterious Southern Continent The icon for the dungeon is dead in the middle of the southern continent. We don't know jack diddly squat about this place. Not the name, not who lives there, not what sort of weapons they have, nothing. All we know from the demo is that they grow some sort of special flower or something near the “Capnae Mountains,” but they're all the way in the northwest and far from the dungeon icon.

DATELINE: THIS WEEK/TONIGHT-- We get our elven freak folk on (in a non-Ys way) with Jessica Pratt's Own Your Own Love Again. Elves must be punk rock (suck it gorons) because this week's pick was chosen by return guest (and punk aficionado)) Evan Minkser. Do not ask me how many times I tried to spell aficionado. It should start with an O!Also up for discussion: Chris relates a twice told tale of toiling at the film factory (Cars 4), He-He can be a grandpa's name if Gaar is taken, and quite a few actual discoveries are made because Evan knows how to find music unlike yr hosts.The Guest: Evan Minsker of see-saw.

“So you see that the main characters' relationship develop. You see how their country's changing, their themes of mental health and women's rights, social justice, there's magical gems.

The Elves speak in a more gracious and antique style; James thinks there's an old joke in there somewhere. Join The Man of the West and The Sage of the South as we begin our two-episode exploration of Appendix F to The Lord of the Rings, and the languages of Middle-earth take center stage. Pengoloð shows up again, someone is trying to gloss over Thingol's linguistic genocide, and Galadriel has her scribes everywhere. We discuss Tolkien's gripe with translations a week early, give another shout-out to Círdan and wonder (but not for long) about Entish pillow talk. Also, Weber bread makes an unexpected appearance.

HOUR ONE: Love, money, divorce, anger, and murder. One Pennsylvania family had it all and then some in the late 1800's. (The Butler County Tragedy) *** Count Saint Germain and Jacques Saint Germain, John and Wayne Carter, the Casket Girls of New Orleans. Despite many years between all of their lives, they all still have one grisly thing in common. All were thought to be, and possibly were, real vampires tied to the Big Easy… a place where real blood-suckers continue to live and roam the streets even now in the twenty-first century. (Vampires of New Orleans) *** They have a long history in the United Kingdom, stalking the moors and fog-carpeted streets in the night. But it appears hounds from Hell have also made their way to the Americas. (American Hellhounds)==========HOUR TWO: On a barren field in the U.S. state of Georgia, five granite slabs rise in a star pattern. Each of them weighs over 20 tons and on top of them, there is a capstone. Nobody knows who built it or why they were placed there, but one popular opinion that their purpose is to guide humanity after a predicted post-apocalyptic event that will come in the not so distant future.  (The American Stonehenge) *** When you think "fairies," what comes to mind? You probably picture an adorable and sparkly creature akin to Disney's Tinker Bell, a lovely - and above all, friendly - presence. You may even want to make contact with them. Unfortunately, glittering humanoids with butterfly wings are the stuff of children's books. Retrace faerie folklore, and you'll discover their secret scary origins. (The Dark Side of Fairies) *** In the Summer of 1949, a geologist named Vadim Kolpakov discovered a strange feature on the surface of the earth in the Bodaibo, Irkutsk, region of South-Eastern Siberia.  Encircled by a largely treed area, this anomaly is oval with a conical crater that contains a small ball-like mound in its middle.  The geologic mystery has baffled scientists who are uncertain of what caused this weird formation. (What Caused the Patomskiy Crater) *** Is there any truth behind the enduring legend of the werewolf?

In this episode we Review some of the Reviews of “Year One” by Nora Roberts. LOTS of comparisons to “The Stand” by Stephen King, several people appalled by the amount of Witches, Faeries, Elves and Shapeshifters in this series. Other people didn't like the “choppy” writing, and still other people [...]

Looking for a nostalgic story to fall asleep to? Join Geoffrey by the campfire as we dive back into his big book of Grimm's Fairytales, hearing about twelve dancing princesses, the frog prince, and the tale of the Elves and the Shoemakers. You'll be asleep before you know it. Love Night Falls?

Maybe Celebrimbor just has poor penmanship; and maybe Alan still can't pronounce things correctly. Join The Man of the West and The Sage of the South as we urge you to take the advice provided in the episode title when we dive into Appendix E to The Lord of the Rings on Writing and Spelling… but we know you're here for the pronunciation humiliation! Fëanor stands on the shoulders of the giant Rumil, Tolkien retcons the Dwarvish ‘outer names', and everything's absurd to the Elves. We try to rhyme ‘were' with ‘hair', get stressed about stress, and are just extending the fricative, man. Also, James sings a Sesame Street song. Learn more about your ad choices.

So, I am reading through Lord of the Rings for the first time and publishing my thoughts on the chapters as I read them. But I just finished chapter three and I have to say: Gildor makes me like elves.

The Númenóreans altered the calendar of the Elves; Alan & James never could get the hang of Thursdays. Join The Man of the West and The Sage of the South as we practice only the best kind of pedantry in our exploration of Appendix D on the various intricate calendar systems in Middle-earth. The Elves are obsessed with sixes and twelves, the Númenóreans have to fix a millennial deficit — which has nothing to do with spending too much on Starbucks — and the Hobbits always do their own thing. We wonder if days not belonging to a month feel lonely, agree that 30-day months are best, and discover that pigs fly on Friday the First of Summerfilth. Also, James' new nickname is optimistic.

Want to survive your first Warhammer Fantasy game without getting eaten by a goblin or arrested for fashion crimes? This episode teaches you the grimdark basics—judgy elves included. Big thanks to our sponsor, Dungeon Master Adamantine—the only GM who can run a perfect session and pronounce "Naggaroth" correctly on the first try. If you want to play D&D, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire: The Masquerade, or any other TTRPG—whether you're in Greece, online, or just chaos-curious—book your game at dungeonmasteradamantine.com or find him on StartPlaying. Show Notes: In this gloriously grimdark episode, the RPGBOT crew celebrates both personal victories and narrative tragedy—because nothing says Pride like running a half marathon and being emotionally wrecked by Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay lore. The crew dives deep into the richly depressing world of Warhammer Fantasy, from the human-centric politics of the Empire to the lizard-brained logic of the Slann. They explore the setting's clashing cultures, catastrophic corruption mechanics, and the unfortunate magical side effects of wearing the wrong outfit. Expect heated discussions on dwarf grudges, elf egos, undead management tips, and why your bright pink tunic might just get you killed during spellcasting. The conversation also gets tactical as they unpack dungeon design do's and don'ts, from the elegance of the Five Room Dungeon to the emotional trauma that is Tomb of Horrors. Spoiler alert: don't design your dungeon like a video game unless your players are part AI and emotionally numb. This episode is equal parts war-torn exposition and mechanics breakdown, with a healthy helping of sarcastic celebration. Key Takeaways: Pride is powerful. So is finishing a half marathon. So is a vampire count on a zombie dragon. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is what happens when early modern Europe and cosmic horror have a very messy divorce. The Empire: Best place to be human, worst place to not pay your taxes. Bretonnia: Where chivalry and classism come with matching banners. Kislev: Frostpunk with bears and chaos cultists. Dark Elves: If Hot Topic and human sacrifice had a baby. Warhammer Fantasy ≠ Warhammer 40K. This one has fewer space marines, more diseases. Elves are superior—just ask them. The Old World is “Europe but cursed.” The New World is “Colonialism but with dinosaurs.” Dwarves: Have grudges, will travel (underground). Lizardmen: Technically the good guys, if you like ancient prophecy and no interpersonal skills. Greenskins: Orcs, goblins, and the chaos-fueled frat party that never ends. Skaven: Backstabbing rat anarchists who somehow built a nuclear weapons program. Undead: Vampires rule the night; Tomb Kings rule the day (and resent the living). Chaos: The multiversal HR violation that unites us all. Your class and career determine your fate, like high school but with more mutations. Warhammer's magic system: Be fluent in death chants and fashion-forward or suffer the consequences. Psychology, fear, corruption, and disease aren't flavor—they're core mechanics. Color-coordination is literally rules-as-written. You can die for clashing. Spellcasting is hard. Miscasting is harder. Death by wardrobe malfunction is canon. Character progression is XP-based. Advancement is granular and glorious. Half-elves aren't a thing. Racial purity is, unfortunately, a cultural theme. Dungeon design should offer choices, not just punishment. Unless you're Tomb of Horrors. The Five Room Dungeon is a GM's best friend—tight, deadly, and endlessly adaptable. Don't copy video game dungeons. This isn't Skyrim and your players aren't NPCs. Listen now and learn why wearing a green sash while casting a red spell might kill you faster than a chaos spawn with an axe.

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Cursebound: "Why are we letting people go!?" ACOFAE is back in the world of Fae and Elves with Cursebound, the sequel to Faebound which brought us to Yeeran and Lettel and their world of animals, curses, war, and politics. Yeeran is determined to get the word out about the hidden and cursed Fae and decides that telling her ex is the best way to do that. Surprising absolutely no one, it goes terribly and both Yeeran and the reader are thrust into political situation that is boiling over on all fronts. In the Fae world the internal fighting between groups is coming to a head, and outside of the Fae world the War has not stopped or slowed. but gained traction. Ending on a cliff hanger that Laura Marie did NOT see coming, Cursebound sets the stage for a dramatic conclusion coming in book 3.

Please enjoy this transmission that was recorded in Reykjavik, Iceland on the summer solstice and full moon conjunction. This conjunction of events lends itself to powerful openings in our subtle bodies and consciousness for rapid transformation and spiritual insights.  We connect to the Fire Principle through the Spiritual Being of the Sun also known as the Solar Logos.  This is a perfect time to make this connection as a reminder and resonance with our own Inner Light and spiritual consciousness that can light the dark for ourselves and others as we move forward in these accelerated times. Also by making this deep connection to our Inner Light we acquire the resources to help others and the planet during possible difficult times in the future. The transmission is guided by Source, the Solar Logos, Solar Angels, Elves, and the Spirits of Nature particularly in Iceland and your location.  We co-create with the spirits of the land and particularly the elves who are quite strong in the land of Iceland.  This combination of the Solar Logos and the Spirits of the Land assist in anchoring this Inner Light onto the planet.  This transmission also helps awaken and balance the elements in Nature to assist healing of the planet and a calming of the storms and natural disasters occurring across the globe.
