Send us a textToday we continue our coverage of the Wicked 5-book universe by Gregory Maguire with book two: Son of a Witch! We're diving into political fantasy like we never have before, just in time to watch Wicked for Good with all of you! Check out our kickoff “Are Books Political" episode all about why books and reading are inherently political and why it's not only important to acknowledge this, but to read our favorite books through this lens. We concluded during our subsequent deep dive of Wicked (book one) that Maguire intentionally uses the fantastical to expertly critique issues like authoritarianism, colonialism, and racism, just to name a few.In this episode we dive into book two: Son of a Witch, released ten years after Wicked, which follows the life of Liir, protege and possible son of Elphaba as he grapples with what it means to be a soldier, a “man,” a human, and a possible rebel and military deserter. Who were our favorite and least favorite characters and plot points? Was this book what we expected? Do we think these books can be separated from politics just because they're fantasy? What philosophical questions are posed? And what literary devices does Maguire use to critique government structures like the military industrial complex, and the ensuing “isms?”Fantasy stories can be so much more than surface level storytelling, and often are. We're here to discover why! Listen on for our reviews of book two, our deep dive reactions with five sentence summary, and fun facts about the book that started the Wicked phenomena!

Gloria vit dans un palais suspendu, à l'abri de la pollution, du brouillard et des tempêtes. Chaque jour, elle épie le monde à travers son télescope et un jour elle aperçoit, tout en bas, un garçon au sol : un être avec des plumes et un long nez, qui vit parmi les autres. Cette découverte bouleverse son univers cloisonné et l'invite à envisager l'altérité, la nature, la résistance et la coopération.

Sitting just outside of Montréal in Pointe-Claire, QC, one of the newest breweries in Québec is Folklore, which took over the space from the recently shuttered Labrosse. Co-Founder Alex Arsenault joined Cee to chat about how it all came together (and how fast it happened), how they got their brand identity, labels and beer recipes ready to go, the support from the community, how Untappd affects breweries and some best practices, the inspiration for their beers, why they've ventured out to meet other brewers and creators (like to the Get It In Ya® SpecTAPular), their connection to the UK and New Zealand, the folklore concept behind the brand, they direction they plan to take the brewery, and how to communicate their story. They got into seven Folklore bangers - Alkonost Czech Lager, King Arthur Amber Ale, Glück Festbier, Caddy West Coast IPA x InnoMalt, The Dep Run Pale Ale, Bigfoot NEIPA, and Fable #1 NEIPA.

We're diving into political fantasy like we never have before, just in time to watch Wicked for Good with all of you! Check out our latest Tuesday full length episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1Z1NeJej2k all about why books and reading are inherently political, why it's not only important to acknowledge this, but to read our favorite books through this lens, and how Maguire uses the fantastical to expertly critique issues like authoritarianism, colonialism, and racism. We also provide a bit of context by discussing what political happenings were taking place when Wicked was written, and what influences the Wizard of Oz and L. Frank Baum may have had on this more current work. In this episode we dive into book one: Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West in which we experience the hostile takeover of Oz by the Wizard, a fascist dictator, through the eyes of Elphaba, the flawed and ultimately the unfortunate martyr to the resistance. Who were our favorite and least favorite characters and plot points? Do we think these books can be separated from politics just because they're fantasy? What philosophical questions are posed?

Send us a text“Are people born wicked? Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?”Today we will be exploring the highly debated topics of whether or not books are inherently political, if politics can even be separated from literature (and fantasy) in general, and if the very acts of reading and publishing have been politicized. We will be exploring all of these questions through an intersectional feminist lens, specifically focusing on Gregory Maguire's popular book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, turned one of the longest running broadway musicals of all time, turned top grossing film adaptation of a broadway musical.There are five books in the Wicked universe that Gregory Maguire has released throughout the last 30 years and we are covering them all. Beginning this Friday with book one: Wicked, and followed by the next 3 in the original series, the prequel Elphie totaling five book deep dive episodes, and ending with our wrap up episode ranking all of the books, the series as a whole, the broadway musical, and the movie adaptations. We even timed everything just right so we can discuss the new movie with y'all! Today we dive deep into where the original Oz story came from, why and how books, publishing, and the very act of reading itself have been heavily influenced by political climate and decisions, and how this comes through in fiction and fantasy. We discuss political and historical decisions in relation to book bans, public education and literacy, the publishing industry, because fiction (fantasy included) cannot separate itself from the society, the laws, the constraints, and the limitations of its time. It exists within the context it is produced, and it acts as a reflection and often an intentional critique of the political climate and society it came from. AND that work itself can then influence for good or evil, change. We are here to enjoy these books, but we are also here to discuss how important they are to a greater conversation about humanity, good and evil, the origins of prejudice, free will, and the influence of power, among many other themes. We hope that by just talking these things out with you and each other, we can keep the IMPORTANT conversation at the forefront. That fighting with each other about whether or not books are political in the first place takes the focus off of the real questions these authors wanted us to ask. Or as Elphaba said: “Well that's it, that's all part of it. You can't divorce your particulars from politics.”Don't be shy, subscribe! New Podcasts every Tuesday!!

Age of Fable is a Green Bay–based indie/prog collective that blends melodic songwriting with expansive post‑rock, progressive textures and atmospheric arrangements that build into cinematic crescendos.We had the chance to talk with Age of Fable about the band origins, lineup changes, and how their sound evolved from an acoustic duo into a full‑band project. The group recounts recording multiple pandemic‑era releases, tracking at Rock Garden and more recently cutting new material at Source Tracks, and rolling those sessions into festival stages like Mile of Music and All Bands on Deck. They discuss songwriting dynamics between Chris and Melanie, adding drummers and bassists over time, the “prog‑lite” label listeners use to describe their shifting time feels, and plans for a new heavy, earwormy single and upcoming shows.Code Zero Radio is an independent streaming radio station based in the Fox Cities, Wisconsin, dedicated to spotlighting emerging artists, local talent, and underground music scenes.

Send us a textToday we're bringing you a deep dive follow up to a very exciting and mostly spoiler free author interview episode with Hazel Mack all about the monster romcom series that stole our hearts: Haven Ever After! We'll be discussing all NINE books that complete this lighthearted happily ever after series including eight full length books, and one short novella. This series has every type of monster - gargoyles to vampires, witches to werewolves, and everyone in between… and they are ALL falling in love. Single dad, sports romance, enemies to lovers, fated mates, second chance romance, and he falls first are just some of the tropes we love. And don't worry… every book is at least a 3-4 on the spice scale, despite the Gilmore Girls vibes.
"Maybe it's time to look at all this with new eyes." This is the tenth of 11 episodes in Season 4 that will totally wrap up the series. For the very best audio experience, please listen with headphones. Featuring Megan Morales as Antonia, Jessi Brown as Mel, Jhonattan Fuentes as Salvador, Jeff Schmidt as Marlon Mason, Ana Noval as Maria, Ali Sooudi as RA Hastings, Genie Leslie as Kim, Sung Park as The Singer, and Kristopher Kaiyala as Joseph.

Hello? Anybody out there? Oh, yeah, hey. It's been a minute. Soooooooo... where were we? Right. When last we left our crew, they had managed to make it on the Maggies II and III and blast off from Planet Bob. Just barely before Planet Bob sort of ... blasted. Now that word feels funny. Blasted. Question is, did the ships and their contents survive the explosion? Well, considering this episode is, what, 26 minutes long, I'm gonna go with "probably," or this is gonna be a hella awkward silence. If Nattertop and Phil, the spiders aboard Maggie II and III respectively, survived, they certainly have their work cut out for them. Assuming, of course, the spiders plan to heal the crew ...

Forza bros, rejoice! After plenty of speculation, rumors, and eventual leaks, Forza Horizon 6 has finally been announced at Tokyo Game Show 2025. Joining me is honorary Duke, Sir Bradley Ellis, to discuss all things Forza and more in the world of gaming! It has been long anticipated that Playground would take the franchise to Japan and now that it's finally happening, we have a lot to go over. Landing in 2026, this will be hitting Xbox and PC first, which already lands a little out of the realm of our expectations. When is the inevitable PlayStation port? We dive into just that. Moreover, Playground may end up being the 2026 darling for Xbox if Fable and Forza hit in the same year. Matty and Brad dig into their expectations for 2026 where no doubt there will be a double feature including these two. Beyond that, we dive into the recent State Of Play, the new OD gameplay, more leaked details on Perfect Dark's episodic format, and much more!

It’s been a banner year for Dijon: Lending talents to Bon Iver’s SABLE, fABLE, contributing to Justin Bieber’s SWAG, and an upcoming role in Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Batter After Another. But all of the above takes a backseat to Baby, his long-awaited follow up to 2021’s Absolutely. It’s an album made at home and mostly in isolation (save for contributions from his new family and a few notable musical kindred spirits). Crucially, it retains the deliberate introspection fans have come to expect. “Yamaha” is a highlight from the LP (out now), capturing a slice of quotidian life.
