For more than 20 years, Canadian ballet dancer Heather Ogden has been performing the role of the Sugar Plum Fairy in the enduring Christmas classic “The Nutcracker.” Last December, Heather sat down with Tom Power to talk about the magic and opulence of this production at the National Ballet of Canada — and what makes the Sugar Plum Fairy's solo so tricky.

Today on Worldview Legacy Today, Joel Settecase takes aim at one of the most common atheist talking points — “The Bible is just a book of fairy tales.”In a world that dismisses faith as fiction, Joel unpacks why that claim falls apart under logic, history, and theology.

Tonight we're joined by Jim Whitehead, calling in from Costa Rica, and podcast host of Fascinating Fae. He shares a most striking experiences. In 2019, while out on the water in British Columbia, Jim and his partner witnessed something neither of them were prepared for: a small, illuminated, winged humanoid that appeared between them, filled them with an intense sense of euphoria, and seemed to bend their perception of time. What followed set Jim on a path that would eventually reshape his understanding of the paranormal, and a run of events that raised more questions than answers. In this episode, Jim walks us through the encounter in full detail, the ripple effects that continued for years, and why he believes this moment may have been part of something bigger and older than he ever imagined. More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-362-the-fae-in-the-wheelhouse/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

To mark the recent release of the second Wicked film, for this week's episode we're revisiting my 2020 interview with Dee Michel, author of the book Friends of Dorothy: Why Gay Boys and Gay Men Love the Wizard of Oz. Dee's book is an in-depth examination of queer Oz fandom, which for him has its roots in happy memories of watching the movie with his dad. Dee grew up in the 1950s with the threat of the red scare looming over his family — his parents met at a Communist Party meeting, and there was the constant threat that the family would be exposed. Added to the general chaos of the time was the discovery that his father was gay, and Dee's own struggle to find his place in the world.And before we get to that, a quick heads up that I have a new YouTube video coming this weekend about the powerful gay magic behind The Wizard of Oz and Wicked. Check out my videos at youtube.com/mattbaume.

This episode of the Please Me! Podcast features a deep, intimate conversation with dark romance author Bria Rose, celebrated for her seductive, emotionally rich, and morally gray fairy-tale retellings. Together, we explore how trauma, healing, sexuality, empowerment, and feminine archetypes shape her storytelling and the dark, alluring worlds she creates. Bria opens up about the inspiration behind Her Dark Promise, her twisted Beauty and the Beast retelling, while offering exclusive insight into her upcoming dark Pinocchio retelling and a new morally gray romance currently in development. We also discuss her Disney upbringing, how innocence and darkness intertwine in adult fantasy, and why readers crave complex, flawed, emotionally intense characters. This episode includes a raw, vulnerable role-play segment delving into boundaries, relationships, communication, desire, self-worth, erotic identity, and reclaiming feminine power. Perfect for listeners who adore dark romance, romantasy, adult fairy-tale retellings, erotic storytelling, and trauma-informed character development.

Fairy tales are far more than simple children's stories. In this episode of _Classical Et Cetera_ we explore why these tales endure, what they offer the moral imagination, and how they help both children and adults see the world with clarity and wonder. From questions about when to begin reading fairy tales to the connections they share with Scripture, we discuss why "demythologizing" (whether fairy tale or sacred text) risks losing the very truth they carry. Join us for a thoughtful classical and Christian look at stories that shape our soul.   *What We're Reading* from This Episode:  The Wind in the Willows" Kenneth Grahame (Ian) "Everything Sad Is Untrue" Daniel Nayeri (Ian) "Housekeeping" Marilynne Robinson (Ian) "The Wind in the Willows" Kenneth Grahame (Leigh) "Understanding the Hillbilly Thomist" Damian Ference (Leigh) "Beauty and Imitation" Daniel Mclnerny (Vigen) "Into the Light: Classical Education and Orthodox Christianity" David Hicks and Anthony Gilbert (Vigen) "Twenty Years After" Alexandre Dumas (Paul)

You can talk about love, kids, and sex, but the second money comes up, things get awkward. This week on SUPERWOMEN, I sit down with Jackie Combs, Matrimonial & Family Law Partner at Blank Rome LLP. Jackie has seen firsthand what happens when women avoid talking about finances until it's too late. She's advised clients ranging from celebrities to founders, many of whom didn't realize what they were financially entitled to or what they'd already sacrificed. We discuss why prenups aren't just for the rich, how financial red flags can appear earlier than you think, and why it's never too soon to start these conversations. Whether you're just dating or have been married for ten years, you'll want to hear this.

The Department of Justice's declaration that Jeffrey Epstein was a "lone wolf" with no ties to intelligence and no involvement in kompromat is not just laughable—it's an insult to the intelligence of every American with a functioning frontal lobe. This isn't just a lie; it's a grotesque act of gaslighting. You don't amass blackmail material on billionaires, politicians, and royalty by accident. You don't operate an international sex trafficking ring out of mansions, private islands, and government-funded plea deals unless someone very powerful is holding the door open. For the DOJ to issue this absurd narrative in 2025, after years of irrefutable evidence and obvious patterns, is like spitting in the face of every survivor, whistleblower, journalist, and citizen who's been screaming the truth while being told they were delusional.What this memo really signals is institutional rot—an admission, cloaked in denial, that the system doesn't intend to clean up its mess. It's a grotesque pantomime of justice, hoping the public will grow tired, stop asking questions, and let the concrete dry over a grave full of secrets. But this isn't going away. You don't get to burn the files, wash your hands, and pretend the smell isn't still in the air. The Epstein operation was too big, too protected, and too damn obvious to be chalked up to one rogue predator. What we're witnessing is not closure—it's cover-up, and it reeks.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

(Airdate: 11.20.25) Today on the Who Cares News, Travis Kelce is out here thanking Taylor Swift for turning his podcast into a chart-topping juggernaut — because apparently the Swift Effect now extends to tight ends and their microphones. Meanwhile, Sean "Diddy" Combs may have just blown up his own $100 million lawsuit against NBC, thanks to courtroom comments that handed the network's lawyers a gift-wrapped opening. And in the plot twist nobody had on their bingo cards, Parmigiano Reggiano just signed with a major Hollywood talent agency.

Support Us: Donation Page – LibriVox Free AudiobooksThis collection of fantasy stories was originally serialized in regional newspapers, prior to being published as a complete volume. The stories, as critics have noted, lack the high-fantasy aspect of the best of Baum's work, in Oz or out. With ironic or nonsensical morals attached to their ends, their tone is more satirical, glib, and tongue-in-cheek than is usual in children's stories; the serialization in newspapers for adult readers was appropriate for the materials.

“…the fairy tale is the great mother of the novel, and has even more universal validity than the most-avidly read novel of your time. And you know that what has been on everyone's lips for millennia, though repeated endlessly, still comes nearest to the ultimate human truth.”  Carl Jung, Red Book Many people think of fairy tales […] The post What Fairy Tales Teach About Life first appeared on Academy of Ideas.

This week's featured story comes from the So Many Fairies collection. It's called "The Lantern Prince." The Prince is not like his parents. In fact, he is not like any royal. In addition to being strong, obedient, and confident — common royal traits — he is also very kind and loving. But what makes the Prince unusual is that he is kind and loving to everyone, royal and servant alike. The King and Queen hope that he will grow out of it, but alas, as he grows he only gets more loving and kind. One day he spies a poor beggar woman in the streets, and his life is never the same again. If you enjoyed that story, there are hundreds and hundreds more where that came from.

Disney once prided itself on being the "happiest place on Earth," but lately it's been trying to erase a few of its own storylines — the race-swapped princesses, the same-sex kisses, the "magical beings" that replaced the Seven Dwarfs. After years of billion-dollar losses, fan backlash, and box-office bombs, the studio is suddenly rethinking its "woke" era.
