Aldrich Family - The Generous Gentleman Movie

It's all good times for Aprilia. Their hardware is proving top-notch at the track, and even after one race they've already got some spectacular results in the pocket. In fact, if the world ends tomorrow they'd technically be world champions! But what are the chances of that happening?In completely unrelated news, are we still doing that Qatar GP or are we canceling it due to a chance of missiles? And speaking of apocalyptic disasters, we should probably peak over at Ducati and see how they're doing. The numbers don't look great, but there is always more to the story - so we're going to start digging, and we're going to keep digging even if that means we have to engage in some small, reverent grave-robbing over in Bolognia so we might solve the secrets of the desmo...Oh, and we're also hitting on vortex generators (sounds a bit sci-fi!), dragon's teeth (sounds a bit fantasy!) and potential top speeds (sounds VERY MotoGP!).Cheers! Want more?

This post contains affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.If you've ever masked your anxiety while looking wildly “high-functioning,” this episode is going to hit.Today I'm chatting with returning guest Cat Sebastian about her new contemporary romance Star Shipped — a slow-burn, forced-proximity love story between two actors on a long-running sci-fi show who “hate” each other in the most domestic way possible.We talk about why Cat took a risk moving from historical to contemporary romance, how fandom and sci-fi shaped this book, and why she wanted to write a character with anxiety, OCD, and migraines who doesn't magically “heal” by the final chapter. This is a conversation about radical acceptance, surviving in a noisy world, and finding love without fixing yourself first.If you loved the emotional intensity of hockey romances but want celebrity PR chaos instead, this one's for you.⏱️ Timestamps[00:00] Welcoming Cat back + what she's been up to[00:01] Inside Star Shipped — enemies-to-lovers on a sci-fi set[00:02] The Gene Roddenberry letter that inspired the book[00:04] Taking the risk from historical to contemporary[00:06] Researching fandom vs. TV industry details[00:08] Writing invisible disability & high-functioning anxiety[00:12] No “pink cloud” healing — why incremental growth matters[00:16] Radical acceptance in romance[00:18] Romance recommendations with buttoned-up/chaos pairings[00:23] Where to find Cat + newsletter over social media

When I first came up for the idea for the Culture Study Romance Book Club back in January, I knew I wanted every edition to have two books: one contemporary, and one historical. Part of this desire was selfish (I personally gravitate towards historicals) but I also wanted to explore the contrast between what you can do with a romance set in the past (with its particular confines) and one set in the present (with seemingly none, but actually so many). I also knew that I wanted to start with M/M romances (hi, Heated Rivalry) and that Melody had sung the very loud praises of renowned historical queer romance author Cat Sebastian's mid-century queer romance — particularly You Should Be So Lucky, which managed to combine baseball (one of Melody's true loves) with romance (Melody's secondary love). And listeners, I hope this is clear: when it comes to so many things, but romance in particular, I listen to Melody! And when Melody asked if we should try and get Cat on the pod, I said "obvi please try." AND THEN SHE MADE IT HAPPEN. This remains a total marvel of hosting a podcast: sometimes the people you admire so deeply... can also come on your pod. This is a long preamble to the overarching point: Cat Sebastian isn't just an absurdly talented (and successful) author of queer historical romance. She's also whipsmart when it comes to the crafting of these romances, the idea of vibes vs. plot (and third act break-ups in particular), how she translates the historical record, and so much more. This pod is for you if you're at all interested in romance, obviously, but also if you're at all interested in how we think about the past as a narrative playground. Final note: We had such a good time recording this episode and laughed one billion times — I hope that joy translates when you listen! GREAT NEWS: WE HAVE VERY GOOD EPISODE TRANSCRIPTS NOW!

We're talking with Nichole Hill, host of Our Ancestors Were Messy, about hot, messy, ideologically fascinating world of Black gossip columns during the golden era of Black newspapers (1930 to 1960). What do you want to know about how the Black press worked during this era — and how gossip in particular worked (both about stars, local celebrities, and normal people?) There's so much here!!!HILARY DUFF!!! The comeback, the new album, let's talk about all of it — with Hilary Duff expert/forever-fan ALLIE JONES (also Melody loves Hilary Duff so much and will be very sad if we don't get enough questions for this episode) Conversion Therapy (how it affects people late into life, how it still exists, etc. etc — we're talking to Timothy Schraeder Rodriguez about his new book, Conversion Therapy Dropout, and there are so many connections to the ways the current administration is currently trying to "de-trans" people in custody) KID INFLUENCERS — what happens when your parent puts you on camera before you can really consent?

Dearest fictional friends, welcome back to Fully Booked — the podcast where we break down books, adaptations, and everything in between. In this episode, we're diving deep into Bridgerton Season 4 Part 2, covering episodes 5–8 and wrapping up Benedict and Sophie's full season arc. Here's what we get into: ✨ Benedict & Sophie — Is this really the most book-accurate Bridgerton season? We compare the show to Julia Quinn's An Offer from a Gentleman.

 Ah, take a whiff of that! You smell it? It's that unique scent of jungle, petrol and excitement which can only mean one thing:MotoGP is back, baby!Now, you might wonder why we just described the above mentioned (and highly questionable) smell. But you have to understand that Mat is currently at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram, Thailand while being sick as a dog. Seriously, some vicious flu has got him down and he's purely holding on through the strength of willpower and lozenges. The poor lad has even had to give up drinking this week! Here's to hoping he will get through this unfortunate period of sobriety…Luckily, there's plenty to take the mind off things as we dive head-first into the opening race of the 2026 season. And will you look at that: it's Aprilia and KTM dominating! What has given them an edge, and what does this mean for the rest of the season? That's what we're here to find out! Also, why on earth is Mat suddenly interested in the Saturday Sprint? Does he have a fever, or is there something more going on here? Time to press that play button and find out...Want more?

Step into Episode 200 of ‘On The Delo' as Delo celebrates a major milestone by sitting down with fellow "Delo" Dave Delos, a 30-year bar industry veteran, owner of six neighborhood dive bars, and president of the Arizona Licensed Beverage Association (ALBA). From growing up in Poughkeepsie, New York, and building homes with his hands to buying his first bar from his father-in-law Tony Marino in 1996, Dave shares the full arc of how hard work, family, and a willingness to "figure it out" built a six-location dive bar empire across the West Valley.​The conversation goes deep on what it really means to run a family business in hospitality, how Dave and his wife Lori built their operation together (she's known as "the executioner" for a reason), and how their son and daughter have now stepped into daily operations and HR to carry the legacy forward. Dave also opens up about life at 60, losing his father last year, taking his 86-year-old mom wine tasting, and why golf, travel, cooking, and wine at night keep him grounded. You'll hear one of the wildest bar stories ever told involving a live World War II hand grenade thrown into one of his bars, plus Dave's journey from ALBA board member to seven-year president, why a $200,000 Series 6 license needs protecting, and where he stands on mandatory Title 4 training and personal responsibility. Stay for rapid fire on Sunday day drinkers, Michelob Ultra, napkin deals, White Castle, and why dive bars are the fabric of America.​Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:53) Episode 200 Celebration, "On The Delos," and Why Delo Matters to the Industry(2:54 - 6:38) Growing Up in New York, the Mazda B2000 Road Trip, and Meeting His Wife at Gentleman's Choice(6:39 - 9:54) Moving to Arizona, Buying a Bar from Tony Marino, and Building Six Locations with His Hands(9:54 - 12:38) His Wife "The Executioner," Partnership, and What a Good Woman Does for Your Life and Business(12:39 - 15:18) Passing the Business to His Kids, College First, and Letting Go After 30 Years of Decisions(15:18 - 17:55) Life at 60: Golf, Travel, Wine at Night, and Taking His 86-Year-Old Mom Wine Tasting(17:56 - 20:52) The Live Hand Grenade Story: The Wildest Thing That's Ever Happened in One of His Bars(20:52 - 25:06) Getting Into ALBA, Industry Titans, Bill Weigel, and Why It's "My Time, My Turn"(25:06 - 29:02) What ALBA Does: Lobbying, Licensing, Protecting the $200K Series 6, and Don Isaacson at the Capitol(29:02 - 33:19) Title 4 Training, Mandatory vs. Voluntary, Personal Responsibility, and Masking Intoxication(33:19 - 35:42) ALBA Membership Benefits, $300/Year, Insurance Discounts, and a Welcome to New Members(35:42 - 42:03) Rapid Fire: Sunday Drinkers, Dive Bars, Michelob Ultra, Napkin Deals, White Castle, and Delo's Close

Hold on to your bonnets as we flash back in time to witness the ball – and the lead-up – from Sophie's perspective. With more information about her life and circumstances, we're able to see why Benedict has the luxury to stay frozen in a moment of time and Sophie simply does not. Meanwhile, Lady Danbury and the Queen experience a relationship re-evaluation, and Posy and Alfie step up to become new favourite side characters. Finally our season villain emerges: Lady Araminta, who makes the much-missed Cressida look positively angelic. Featuring: - Our *own* lack of class consciousness - Visual metaphors are visualing - Weak Bridgerton genes - Villain dressing - Sad, sulky Sophie - A stacked social calendar - Mother manipulation - Soul mates - A hero moment Here are is the media we talk about in this episode: - Wayne's World, a film by Penelope Spheeris - Bridgerton, a television series - An Offer from a Gentleman, a book by Julia Quinn - Cinderella, a fairytale - Black widow, a term - Romancing Mr Bridgerton, a book by Julia Quinn - Ever After, a film by Andy Tennant - Game of Thrones, a TV show - Mean Girls, a film by Mark Waters - ‘Enchanted', a song by Taylor Swift - Queen Charlotte, a mini-series - Pride and Prejudice, a film by Joe Wright Some extra notes: - For our international listeners, Penfold is a mainstream wine brand and SA refers to the state of South Australia (a wine capital of Australia) - Alfie has a northern accent, and it's likely actor David Moorst's own real one. He's from St Helens, where folks speak with a similar accent to Lancashire or Yorkshire. Our guest host this episode is the romantic and riveting Bella Mason. You can hear more from Bella by following her on instagram and threads. For your TBR, Bella has recommended The Knight and the Moth by Rachel Gillig. Bella called it ‘stunning' and like being wrapped in a ‘warm, gothic blanket'.

In 1776, Adam Smith famously speculates on the concept of a free market and coins the term 'capitalism'. Then, in 2026, the organizers of MotoGP suddenly announce that Philip Island is gone from the official roster of the tournament. Coincidence? We think not! Yes, it's the cruel, cold, capitalist culling of a great circuit and the hosts are not amused. In fact, Mat's literally sick of it and has come down with an awful flu. But just like a certain racing organization, we're a bunch of brutal bastards - so get that man in front of a mic, pronto! And you, too, better press that play button. Because today we're discussing what it means to lose Philip Island, why this decision was made, what precedents it sets and why it's both aggravating and frightful. And stick around, because we've got plenty of other things, too, that we need to discuss before we start racing next week. Like, what bike do we now have the highest technical expectations of? Is it possible for riders to unionize? And what is the best way to keep your temper around awful bikes? Heads up: that last one might be particularly interesting to one specific rider...can you guess who? Please write down your guess on a piece of paper, open up a drink and press play to see if you were right...Want more?

We present this week, since it's the last Sunday of the month, a new feature: OBSCURE OLD-TIME RADIO THEATRE! These may or may not be familiar to you, but we're betting that most of you haven't heard of these before. And so, depending on how much bandwidth we have left over at the end of a month, we'll be bringing you a handful of basically unknown radio shows from the Golden Age, and more than likely from a country other than the U.S. of A. We conclude with... LUX RADIO THEATRE (SOUTH AFRICA) -- an unadvertised extra feature, we had even more bandwidth available than we thought we would, so here's this little gem -- originally broadcast on South Africa's Springbok Radio, it ran for decades and, following the same format of the U.S. version, featured adaptations of films -- but borrowed from English and African cinema as well as American. Our feature today is called A Gentleman's Sport, which tells the story of a young man's desire to follow in his father's footsteps as a decorated aviator.

FTP Theater Hour: Celeste Baillio and Baylie Hendrey of A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder

EVEN MORE about this episode!What happens when divine guidance moves through music, creativity, and the courage to trust your calling?Join Julie Ryan and Broadway star Pamela Bob as they explore spiritual channeling, divine timing, singing as sacred expression, and how play and creativity reveal why we incarnate. In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, Pamela opens up about the sacred vulnerability of singing, why performing for an intimate room can feel more terrifying than a packed theater, and how music aligns with our unique energetic vibration. From the emotional force of shows like Ragtime to a childhood moment of divine recognition—“I think this is God”—this conversation dives deep into artistry as a spiritual calling.Listeners will be captivated by Pamela's jaw-dropping story of channeling June Carter Cash during a nightly, unscripted improvisation—an experience so powerful that Julie reveals June herself chose Pamela in the audition and guided her through every performance. Pamela also shares the brutal truth behind elite performing arts training, where she was repeatedly told she couldn't sing, yet trusted her inner knowing enough to persevere when others were cut. That same guidance later led her from a lucid dream to creating the award-winning Livin' On a Prairie, as the right people and opportunities appeared at exactly the right time.This episode is ultimately a love letter to play, joy, and remembering who you were before the world told you who to be. Pamela reflects on the transformative power of creativity through stories like Encore, where adults rediscover themselves through performance, and offers a simple yet profound invitation for anyone feeling stuck: return to what you loved as a child. The conversation closes with a tear-filled reflection on why we incarnate at all—sparked by a dying woman's final words: “It was so much fun.”Guest Biography:Pamela Bob is a multifaceted actor, singer, and award-winning screenwriter whose career spans Broadway, Off-Broadway, film, television, and podcasting. On Broadway, she appeared in the Tony-nominated Hand to God and the Tony Award–winning A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, where she famously covered all six female roles and regularly stepped into leading performances. Off-Broadway, she starred as Clarice Starling in the cult hit Silence! The Musical—named one of Time Magazine's ten must-see NYC shows—and earned a BroadwayWorld nomination for Best Actor for her role in Cracked Open.

Tonight, this week (x100) we celebrate our 100th episode (aaa) by talking Fela Kuti's 1973 Afrobeat classic, Gentleman.

Is Benedict the most believable rake of all the Bridgerton brothers?

Here at Oxley Bom, everyone knows that the thing we're most famous for are our 'charming' personalities. Like, we can promise we don't physically bite - but that's about the limit of what we can guarentee. So you'll understand when I say it is a great honor to have an actual returning guest to our show! Who is this dauntless fellow? Why, it's the awesome Livio Suppo! For those not in the know (or those who haven't listened to our interview two years ago) we should probably tell you that Livio is an actual real-life legend in the pit, leading teams for Ducati, Honda and Suzuki. Oh, and he worked with some small riders like Casey Stoner and Marc Marquez. I don't know, you might have heard of them...So get ready to hear some insights from our man on the inside – but be warned, because this week we're taking no prisoners! Want more?

Julia Quinn can be relied upon to provide a safe, hallmark-worthy intro to historical romance. Just enough background and history to keep you immersed in the world without drowning you in the minutiae of how day-to-day life in the 1800s. Sophie and Benedict's story is our favorite of the Bridgerton novels for it's pacing but we're missing the angst of Lisa Kelypas' couples. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9408584-an-offer-from-a-gentleman?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_23 Similar BooksStranger In My Arms by Lisa Kleypashttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/243206.Stranger_in_My_ArmsHow the Marquess Was Won by Julie Anne Longhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11388053-how-the-marquess-was-wonCinder by Marissa Meyerhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36381037-cinder?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=dk3GNqSb4V&rank=1The Sweetest Oblivion by Danielle Lorihttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39083635-the-sweetest-oblivion?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=z8SdN5n2PC&rank=1Rose in Chains by Julie Sotohttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/221179254-rose-in-chains?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=Y4KtfYlxz7&rank=1Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levinehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/218038285-ella-enchanted?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=m2sxMzF7ZQ&rank=1Check us out on Youtube and Patreon @notanotherheroine

The Bridgerton author chats all about how her series became a global phenomenon, the unexpected ways Bridgerton has reshaped the genre, and why historical romance deserves its moment in the spotlight again.

Our guest on today's episode of the Gentleman's Journal Podcast is Peter Williams — the founder of both Aubin and Jack Wills, two of the most defining English style start ups of the 21st century. Here, Peter discusses his highly unlikely path into fashion; his 23-year-old midlife crisis; the early viral success of Jack Wills; the changing nature of the British high street; and why youth and naivety could be the most powerful tools for any entrepreneur.

In this episode, I sit down with the founder of Helderburg Defenders to go deep into what truly sets these Defenders apart: uncompromising build quality, craftsmanship, and an almost obsessive attention to detail. We talk about what it takes to elevate a Land Rover Defender beyond restoration and into the realm of a truly bespoke machine—where every component, material choice, and finish is intentional. From chassis and suspension upgrades to interiors that feel more like a tailored suit than a truck, Helderburg Defenders are built to be driven, admired, and endured. This conversation covers: The philosophy behind building Defenders the right way Why quality, durability, and engineering discipline matter more than trends How Helderburg balances authenticity with modern performance and reliability What separates a true high-end Defender build from the rest of the market If you care about craftsmanship, long-term ownership, and vehicles built with integrity rather than shortcuts, this episode is a must-listen.

We've talked about the riders. We've yapped about the manufacturers. And today? Today we get to the real meat and potatoes...the bikes! Never mind that  everybody's still getting ready to start testing in Sepang - we've already got plenty to discuss. We already know a lot about these bikes, so it's time we start looking at the hard questions. Questions like: Are they going to make the racing better? Will they be safer? Are they fun to watch? What's their zodiac? And who might have to get ready for a frosty chat? Just, you know, plenty of questions about the machines that define this sport. Let's get some answers! Want more?
