Episode 561 - Joesph Bolton - Old Grandmother's Tree - Celebrating Cultures and History through FolktalesAbout the AuthorJoseph Bolton was born in Pawtucket, Rhode Island during the twilight of the golden age of French-Canadian culture in New England. Growing up emersed in his mother's French-Canadian family, Joseph enjoyed hearing the stories told by his grandparents and great aunts of a mysterious and magical place called Québec, otherwise known as “the place we came from.”After high school, Joseph's adventurous nature led him to enlist in the U.S. Army and he served in the Army's airborne forces as a paratrooper jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, much to the worry of his mother.Since he retired from the Army, Joseph has worked in various project manager roles as a civilian contractor for the U.S. Air Force. While writing Old Grandmother's Tree, Joseph took a sabbatical from the U.S. Air Force and taught mathematics to young students for a semester at Holy Family Academy in Gardner Massachusetts.Bolton is of French-Canadian, Native American, Spanish, English, and Irish descent, and is profoundly inspired by the stories of his heritage. He lives with his wife in Massachusetts, and, in his free time, enjoys hiking and skiing through Québec and New England landscapes. His favorite places to go for outdoor adventure are the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts and Mont-Orford in Québec. When he is not writing, hiking, or skiing, Joseph enjoys reading about science, history, philosophy, mathematics, and worldwide mythologies. Old Grandmother's Tree is his first book.Meet the IllustratorAbout Natasha Pelley-SmithNatasha Pelley-Smith, born in Toronto, is a seasoned professional artist who graduated from the prestigious Écohlcité fine arts academy in France, in 2017—now integrated into Émile Chol of Lyon.

Partisan SCOTUS is poisoning the country with their Project 2025 agenda. The supreme jerks went after adult videos in measles comeback state of Texas. Also, Alito and his vile company of Siths went after birthright citizenship via an attack on injunctions. The dunces of SCOTUS gave homophobic parents a win involving books with LGBTQ characters. The loads in robes did nothing about redistricting by racists in Louisiana. VIP bigot Nick Fuentes announced Laura Loomer as "the biggest whore in American politics." Governor Newsom has sued FOX News because "f" Rupert and his cronies. Oligarch and Trump-sucker Jeff Bezos was forced to change the venue of his stupid wedding thanks to the righteous protestors of Venice. Speaking of righteous, MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell dragged drunkard Sec-Def Pete Hegseth over lies and threats caterwauled at his presser at the Pentagon. The French Canadian newly in charge of the James Bond franchise floated Spider-person Tom Holland as a candidate.

In this episode of 'Tales from the Green Room,' the hosts engage in an enlightening conversation - and history lesson -  with singer-songwriter, Cajun culture activists, and International recording artist, Zachary Richard. Richard first reflects on his deep ties with Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley, CA  - playing and hanging with Huey Lewis and Bob Weir - before musing on his touring experiences and unique cross-cultural identity as both an American and  French Canadian artist. The interview was recorded in the green room at Chickie Wah Wah, a premier New Orleans music venue, just after Richards's set on the last day of JazzFest 2025, moments before his after-show at the club that evening.The discussion delves into the historical and cultural impacts of the Acadian deportation and the preservation of French culture in Louisiana; while Richard recounts his career in music, his prolific work in both French and English, and his passion for children's literature and poetry. The episode offers a heartwarming look at Richard's collaboration with his neuro-motor handicapped grandson on a musical project - his latest album Handicap Bonheur - and his hopes for cultural and linguistic preservation through nonprofit endeavors. Richard's reflection on his  performance at Jazz Fest and his thoughts on American and French cultural intersections add depth to this rich dialogue on music, heritage, and identity.HighlightsI'm the most American of the French Canadians and the most French of the Americans because I've been going across the border of Quebec, singing in French for 50 years. So, it's a little disheartening to see the tension between the United States and our friends to the north,  especially since I've spent most of my professional career singing in French and working in Quebec. But so goes it, and I'm still part of that culture…I'll be playing in Quebec this summer, which, which I really enjoy doing,  'cause it gets so hot in Louisiana.-Zachary Richard on being part of both American and French-Canadian CulturesTo become a Canadian citizen, I have to swear an oath of allegiance to the king now. It  just struck me as something that I couldn't possibly imagine doing. Swearing an oath of allegiance to a British monarch when my ancestors had suffered so terribly from the fact that they had refused to sign such an allegiance.-Zachary Richard on loyalty to his ancestors.I was torn the United States, back in the nineties and  Sweetwater was our home, away from home, in the Bay Area. Sweetwater was so cool! Jeanie Patterson…. she was a real firecracker and we had a lot of fun with Jeanie and she was so welcoming. And the club was really a lot of fun to play because it was easy to pack. And Huey Lewis would come out, Bob Weir came out, and then we'd go and party at Bob's place. I can't remember too much about that, but I know it was good.-Zachary Richard on his memories playing at Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley, CALinkshttps://www.zacharyrichard.com/enZachary's Richard 2025 Album - Handicap Bonheurhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHlc29obilCk2CUD4n6Vs0whttps://chickiewahwah.com/https://sweetwatermusichall.org/“Against The Tide” - Cajun People of Louisianaa DocumentaryContre vents, contre marees - by Zachary Richardhttps://www.deezer.com/fr/artist/5977Music In EpisodeZachary Richard - Who Stole My Monkey (Live on Letterman 1990)/Rare Tracks II - YouTubeCrawfish by Zachary Richard

Maria Chapdelaine: A Tale of French Canada, written by Louis Hémon in 1913, is one of the most widely read works of fiction ever written in French. Yet today, the book remains far less known in English Canada and the English-speaking world. It is the world's highest-selling French book, and has been translated into over 20 languages. The book has inspired four film versions, several plays, an opera, and even a pop song. Contributor Catherine Annau examines the many lives that Maria Chapdelaine has lived, and continues to live.

On the morning of September 5th, 1917, sixteen-year-old Beatrice Epler was found dead just steps from her home in Alma, Michigan. The investigation into her murder would soon entangle a brothel madam, a traveling theater owner, a local farmer, and a French-Canadian amateur detective. My guest is Allie Seibert, author of Bloodstained: Exploring Michigan's Darkest Murders Forgotten By Time. She walks us through this unsolved mystery and shares some of the strange twists she was able to uncover while researching this long forgotten case.

The final part of Issue 61 is a special Spotlight episode focusing on the films of Denis Villeneuve. Returning guest host Calum joins us to examine how this rather understated French Canadian filmmaker has quietly built up arguably the best filmography of the last 15 years. Films like Sicario, Arrival and the two Dune films show his ability to do things few other directors can, and we want to find out how he's done it. We pay particular attention to his mind-bending early independent film Enemy and his hugely ambitious follow up to Ridley Scott's sci classic with Blade Runner 2049.   The other parts of Issue 61 are out now and the next issue of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd will be arriving from June 25th.

This time around we're joined by Vincent Goodwin from Some of My Friends Read Comics to discuss a serviceable sports comedy that just happens to have Mike Myers traipsing around in every frame doing a horrible Indian accent. It's 2008's The Love Guru! Guru Pitka (Mike Myers) is a white guy who grew up in India. Guided by the Guru Tugginmypudha (Ben Kingsley) he moves to LA to become a guru to the stars. His idol and rival Deepak Chopra (playing himself) is the top guru in the world, so Pitka is determined to get on Oprah and overtake him. In order to do this, he will need to have Toronto Maple Leafs star player Darren Roanoke (Romany Malco) reconcile with his wife Prudence (Meagan Good). Due to crippling insecurity, Darren broke up with her and his performance is suffering on the ice. This comes at the most inopportune time: a credible Stanley Cup run by the Leafs (the most fantastic and unrealistic aspect of this movie). Pitka uses all of his silly little aphorisms, acronyms, and mantras to get Prudence to leave her new French Canadian boyfriend Jacques “Le Coq” Grande (Justin Timberlake). But in order to take his Oprah victory lap (which is inexplicably scheduled before the Stanley Cup series has even concluded) he needs to cut corners on his methods. Will Pitka be victorious? Is he the most loved man on earth? Does everyone think his lame jokes are funny? Does Jessica Alba want to have sex with him? You'll have to listen to find out, but the answer to all of those questions is yes.

After a week off, we go back to Montreal, Canada for the 2025 edition of the Canadian Grand Prix, where all eyes will be on Max Verstappen and his penalty points.

It's a 3 stringer in DG and in a style that dates to the 18th cent. The songs are Un Canadien Errant, the wandering Canadian, which was written in 1842 as a lament for rebels exiled from Canada after the failed Lower Canada Rebellion, 1837-8. The 2nd is A La Claire Fontaine, by the clear Spring, which dates back to 1604 and was originally a song of lost love but also become a resistance song after the British takeover following the F&I War. I wanted to learn some French Canadian song for French reenactors at vous and the Battle of PDC Wi. since a unit portraying the one that fought in that siege would come from Canada to participate in the event as it neared the 250th anniversary of the battle. From Ryan Kirk: Mary Scott Hey Jeremy here's a quick run at Oswald's variations on Mary Scott, a tune I learned from your podcast! I [am playing] an Aulos plastic [flute], copy of a 18th century Grenser. Very nice Instrument for the price. Thought about a wood one but humidity control in our old house is not great. From Dave Rowlands: This is 'La Bernardina' by Josquin des Pres (1450-1521). Not known as a composer for bagpipes, but the leading composer of his time. I have chosen this because a) it is a new find for me, b) because if pipers had access to this music and good instruments they would have played it, and c) because we should not be hidebound to 'tradition', just because it does not come from a bagpiping tradition, does not mean we cant play it, and i cite Amazing Grace as just one case. This is played by Three Swayne D pipes, and one Swayne G pipe. I hope you like it and include it. Best wishes, Dave R From Charlie Rutan: Tu Scendi Dalle Stelle is the traditional Italian Christmas carol played by zampognari. Originally called 'Quanno Nascente Ninno', it was written down in 1754 by St Alphonsus Ligouri, with text in the Neapolitan language: and became so popular that it was later translated into Italian and became 'TU SCENDI DALLE STELLE', undergoing several small changes in its melody during that process. The melody probably existed in various forms for several centuries prior to its 1754 transcription, and is still a basis for many improvised PASTORELLES by zampognari today. I'm playing both Ciaramella ( the Italian folk oboe) and Sei Palmi Zampogna on this track. 'Sei palmi' refers to the length of the instrument's longest chanter, measured by the outsretched palm of the pipe maker's hand, much like the 'cubit' of the ancient world. Zampongne have existed in this form since at least the early 1300's; where we have evidence of the instrument being played in frescoes dated to that time. The zampogna is endemic to southern Italy, exists in about 20 different iterations in several sizes, and is a thriving bagpipe tradition to this day.

Send us a textREVENGE Major Content Warning: Plot-related sexual assault is mentioned throughout this episode.  Minor Content Warning: Filmic violence is and will often celebrated throughout Season 15.   Salut! and welcome to TGTPTU's long-awaited SQUIB SEASON (Season 15) and a return to the pod's unpatented temporal pincer movement with the series' first film covered being the most recent release: REVENGE (2017).   Distributed en Francais in France and Quebec as Revenge, the identically English-titled Revenge is Parisian auteur Coralie Fargeat's premier feature film; her second was last year's thrice Oscar-nominated THE SUBSTANCE, a.k.a. in Francophone countries as LA SUBSTANCE.  Fargeat's début film follows a familiar rape-revenge plot to tell a deliciously violence-laden story. Its deviations from predecessors such as I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE (1978) (and presumably its little-watched 2010s redux quadrilogy) are smart, sans salacious depictions of the abuse, and put the emphasis on survival rather than on its title as Italian model and actress Matilda Lutz shows no merci, pardon, no “mercy” upon her assailant, her murderer, or either crime's bystander (a character renamed Jacque this episode for a passing resemblance to the French-Canadian skizzbag of Twin Peaks universe) when she's backed into a figurative corner of a barren desert.   As host Jacque's (“Jack” in American) pick, the film is no faux pas to start the season with. Its style possesses a je ne sais quoi freshness, lensed by regular Adil & Bilall collaborator Robrecht Heyvaert and scored by Caen-native ROB (né Robin Coudert).   Listen this episode as “squibs” is defined; Ken confuses his birds; and Ryan expresses a great liking for the picture's ass shots while Ken and Jack like its shots through the head and Thomas is nonchalant. Also, Ken tries out a few bits for seasonal stickiness; enfant terrible Thomas ends up putting a chapeau on a chapeau by trying out a French accent; and although they've not yet reached their second episode to pair the oldest to-boe-covered with this most recent, the entire seasonal start this episode has a sense of déjà vu.    Bon appétit et au revoir! THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!): Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

On this episode of Face2Face, David Peck sits down with legendary filmmaker David Cronenberg and acclaimed costume designer Anne Dixon to explore their haunting new film The Shrouds. We dive into grief, storytelling, and the power of collaboration—from Dixon's sculptural approach to costume design to Cronenberg's reflections on love, loss, and existentialism. It's a layered, philosophical conversation about death, creativity, and connection—and one that turns costume and character into deeply human art forms.Synopsis:In The Shrouds, visionary filmmaker David Cronenberg delivers one of his most personal and provocative works to date. The film follows Karsh (Vincent Cassel), a grieving tech entrepreneur who, after the death of his wife Becca (Diane Kruger), develops GraveTech—a revolutionary system that allows mourners to monitor the real-time decomposition of their loved ones via high-tech burial shrouds and smartphone apps.Set in a near-future Toronto, the narrative unfolds as Karsh's creation becomes the center of controversy and intrigue. When several graves, including Becca's, are vandalized, Karsh embarks on a journey to uncover the perpetrators, delving into a web of conspiracies that blur the lines between technology, grief, and obsession. Drawing inspiration from Cronenberg's own experience with loss, The Shrouds is a meditation on mourning, the human desire for connection beyond death, and the unsettling intersections of technology and emotion. With its haunting visuals, a synth-heavy score by longtime collaborator Howard Shore, and a narrative that challenges perceptions of reality and memory, the film stands as a testament to Cronenberg's enduring exploration of the human condition.David Cronenberg is one of Canada's most influential and daring filmmakers, renowned for pushing the boundaries of cinema. Often dubbed the “Baron of Blood,” his work explores the dark intersections of technology, the body, and psychological trauma. From cult classics like Videodrome and The Fly to award-winning dramas like A History of Violence and Eastern Promises, Cronenberg has consistently challenged audiences with his provocative storytelling and signature style. With The Shrouds, he turns inward, crafting a deeply personal meditation on grief and connection, once again proving that he remains one of cinema's most fearless auteurs.Anne Dixon is a celebrated costume designer whose work spans film, television, opera, and dance, bringing characters to life through meticulous research and a deep understanding of visual storytelling. Her recent collaboration with Viggo Mortensen on The Dead Don't Hurt showcases her commitment to authenticity, as she recreated 19th-century attire with precision, even commissioning traditional ceinture fléchée belts from Quebec artisans to reflect the film's French-Canadian roots.Dixon's diverse portfolio includes projects like The Song of Names, Falling, and Anne with an E, earning her accolades such as the CAFTCAD Award and multiple Canadian Screen Award nominations. Her designs are known for their emotional depth and historical accuracy, making her a sought-after talent in the industry.F2F Music and Image Copyright: David Peck and Face2Face.For more information about David Peck please visit his site here.With thanks to Josh Snethlage and Mixed Media Sound.

Today, the Two Mikes spoke with Mr. Maxime Bernier. Mr. Bernier is a French Canadian from Quebec and the leader of the populist People's Party of Canada (PPC). Under Mr. Bernier the PPC is seeking to give Canadians a choice that has not been made available for decades from either the incumbent Liberal Party or the Conservative Party, the later which is nearly as globalist and anti-populist as the former. Mr. Bernier knows the last point first hand as in the past he was an elected a Conservative member of Parliament and a cabinet then minister but soon found out the party had no use for his populist ideas. Mr. Bernier's policy proposals include controlling immigration which currently is almost out of control in Canada via a moratorium. About 97/% of the country's population growth is coming from that immigration, and it also is bringing “internal conflict to Canada's streets”. He also aims to encourage and work for the return of commonsense and individual responsibility to the country's government and to Canadians generally, as well as to return to Canadians the individual freedoms that have been taken from them over the long tenure Trudeau's tyrannical and Soros UN, and WEF loving party.
As in the United States, Mr. Bernier – like Mr. Trump in the U.S. – has been cancelled by the national media, and especially by the Canadian Broadcasting Company. The components of mainstream media in Canada annually receives $2 billion from the taxpayers and uses it to protect the regimes interest, no the interests of working Canadians. As a result, Mr. Bernier has been crisscrossing Canada – we spoke to him while he was in Vancouver – in an effort to educate Canadians about himself, the PPC, and what both stand for and what they intend to achieve when in government. In sum, Mr. Bernier said that there is much to be done in Canada to revitalize the faltering economy and avoiding a tariff war with the United States, to restore civil liberties and keep national government within its constitutional bounds, to reestablish a cohesive society, and to make sure that that their government and lives are being run by accountable Canadians and not by the favorite boot-lickers of overseas globalist organizations. More information about Mr. Bernier, his party and the approaching Canadian election on April 28 the 2025 see https://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca and, at X, @maximebernier

Some soldiers fight wars. Leo Major won them—single-handedly—while rocking a Canadian flag. This one-eyed, French-Canadian unstoppable force of nature took on the Nazis solo, liberated an entire Dutch city by himself, and casually shrugged off wounds that would've ended lesser men. Whether it was sneaking through occupied territory like a moose in stealth mode, capturing dozens of enemy soldiers alone, or just deciding that war wasn't over until he said so, Leo Major was a walking Canadian legend. And just in case WWII wasn't enough, he came back for another war just to flex on history one more time. Strap as Ben and producer Andrew discuss Canada's hardest-hitting, war-winning, maple syrup-fueled madman.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit chadcrouch.substack.comMalheur means “misfortune”. It comes from French-Canadian trappers who applied the name to the SE Oregon area, when in 1818, a cache of beaver furs was believed to be stolen by local indigenous people. Malheur River, Malheur County and Malheur National Wildlife Refuge all take their names from this origin story.Malheur National Wildlife Refuge is a wonder. Its main geologic feature is the basin lake: Malheur Lake. It's similar in one way to The Great Salt Lake, a closed basin lake, but Malheur is technically an intermittent basin lake. In wetter years the water flows outward and onward from the lake. This prevents salts from building up, keeping it a fresh water habitat. For this reason, and because is surrounded by arid lands, it is a migratory bird haven. The refuge was created in 1908, partly in response to the wholesale slaughter of egrets and herons for their plume feathers, which were used as ornamentation on women's hats of the time. Eventually the reserve grew to 293 square miles in size. It's a beautiful, quiet country. Sagebrush uplands surround the lake and riparian habitats. It really is something to realize that when you boil it down, the Euro-American expansion in to western North America was hastened by hat fashion. Before gold, there were beavers, herons and egrets. That's where the easy money was. Showy hats with little practical value. Beaver hides were felted and often dyed black for bowler, fedora and top hats.Today, in wet years, high numbers of nesting colonial birds, including White-faced Ibis can be found here. I associate Florida and the gulf coast with ibises, not Oregon. Observing these birds here feels novel to me. Ibis can be heard in this recording, on the wing, ranging by. There's all kinds of shorebirds too, on the shorelines and mudflats. The melodious Western Meadowlark, welcomes in the day. As for Malheur, it's arguably a word more apropos to the fate of the Native Americans than the trappers and settlers. In the winter of 2016 a different kind of “malheur” played out, but we'll save that for Part 2, next week. The environmental audio was recorded from the sagebrush uplands pointed towards the vast shallow lake wetlands. This soundstage was truly large; on the order of 1000 acres across the auditory horizon. The instrumentation is familiar for a Listening Spot recording. (This is 7th such effort.) String-like sounds with slow attack and decay rise and fall in movements. Among the more novel sounds are undulations; gently percolating guitar voices and fuzzy textures. It gets very quiet and sparse at the 19 minute mark (Track 9) near the end. A Whimbrel can be heard in the distance, while high thin tones punctuate the ambience in a plaintive sort of way. It seems like the quietest moments are usually my favorites. I hope you'll check it out.Thanks for reading and listening. I'm grateful for you. Malheur Suite I is available under the artist name Listening Spot on all streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple, Tidal, Amazon, YouTube…) Friday, March 14th.

At last year's Hot Luck festival in Austin, Andrew sat down with chef Alex Kemp, co-owner and chef of Philadelphia's acclaimed restaurant My Loup for an honest and entertaining conversation.

Edith Blais was kidnapped by armed militants and held captive in the Sahara for 450 days.As a young French-Canadian who had overcome her teenage agoraphobia, Edith took several years to work up the courage to go travelling – but once she did it, she got the bug. In 2018 she backpacked to West Africa with her good friend Luca Tacchetto. When they got to Benin they were kidnapped by armed militants and taken to the desert in a lawless area of Mali, where groups linked to al-Qaeda were known to operate.The couple pretended to be husband and wife so they could stay together but Edith soon found herself held captive alone, kept in isolation for long periods of time. As well as suffering physically with dehydration and starvation, she had to find different techniques to keep her mind strong and stay sane. A borrowed pen enabled her to write poetry, and she sang songs to remind herself of her own voice.After agreeing to convert to Islam she was eventually reunited with Luca. By this time they had been held for 14 months, and they knew they had to break free. But with their captors never more than a few feet away from them, how would they do it? Edith spoke to Jo Fidgen in 2021 about how forces of nature aided their staggering escape. Edith's book about her time in captivity is called The Weight of Sand.Presenter: Jo Fidgen Producer: Katy TakatsukiPicture: Edith Blais Credit: Sara Mauve RavenelleGet in touch: liveslessordinary@bbc.co.uk or WhatsApp: 0044 330 678 2784

He carves Eastern Orthodox and other traditional images and teaches an online carving class.

Jonathan Pageau is a French-Canadian liturgical artist, writer, and public speaker on religious philosophy, symbolism, and Orthodox Christianity. Pageau's commentary can be found on his YouTube channel, “The Symbolic World,” as well as in Dr. Jordan B. Peterson's 17-part “Exodus” seminar and The Daily Wire's latest series, “Foundations of the West.” In today's episode, Jonathan and I discuss the biblical themes found in classical fairy tales like “Jack and the Beanstalk,” and the important role that storytelling plays in establishing our most deeply held cultural norms. Pageau also speaks to the modern uses of symbolism, from the prevalence of conspiracy theories to the real meaning behind the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics. Stay tuned, and welcome back to another episode of the Sunday Special. - - -  Today's Sponsors: ExpressVPN - Get 3 Months FREE of ExpressVPN: https://expressvpn.com/ben ZipRecruiter - Try ZipRecruiter for FREE: https://www.ziprecruiter.comdailywire Tax Network USA - Seize control of your financial future!
