Podcasts about Girl Friday

Send us a textWhen Lucy Irvine answered a classified ad to play Girl Friday to a real-life Robinson Crusoe on a remote tropical island, she embarked on an enthralling—and at times harrowing—year-long adventure. The result was her bestselling 1983 memoir, Castaway, a beautifully-written tale of survival. We're diving into Irvine's unforgettable story with special guest Francesca Segal, whose own island-centric novel, Welcome to Glorious Tuga, was recently optioned for TV by See-Saw Films.Mentioned in this episode:Castaway by Lucy IrvineThe Lucy Irvine FoundationWelcome to Glorgious Tuga by Francesca SegalRunaway and Faraway by Lucy IrvineThe Islander by Gerald KingslandThe Secret Life of a Schoolgirl by Rosemary KingslandCastaway 1986 film trailer starring Amanda Donohoe and Oliver ReedWild by Cheryl Strayed“Alone” on the History ChannelSee-Saw FilmsOne is One by Lucy IrvineThe Innocents by Francesca SegalSupport the showFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comSubscribe to our substack newsletter.

Cáel saves a spirit and risks losing his soul.By FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.Life gives you two chances to get it right; be who you want to be, or who you need to be.(Making choices we can live with)"Trouble," Wiesława relayed to our vehicle. Velma had an 'issue' at my apartment. She'd gone ahead in order to see to my security. My GL-550 had come within a block of the apartment when Wiesława's call came."Tell me what the problem is," I demanded. Wiesława relayed my request."Your roommate won't let them search your bedroom," was the answer I got back."Fuck that," I grumbled. "Tell Velma I'm coming up. Wiesława, take us to the front of my place." She gave me a cautious look, testing my resolve. Sensing that I'd jump out if I had to, she spoke over her blue-tooth to Velma. She wisely didn't pass on Velma's vitriol at me poking my nose into my SD's business, protecting me.As we pulled up and double-parked, everyone piled out."Are we going to need any "extra" assistance?" Delilah suggested. Considering the flock of 'follow-up' cars and SUV's tailing us, I wasn't overly worried about the law enforcement angle.What was I worried about? It wasn't dark yet on a weekday and Timothy was home. Since Velma would have informed me if he was toting around the Black Death, this had to be a crisis of a personal nature, most likely my personal nature. Wiesława struggled to keep pace with me as I took the stairs three at a time. She'd given up on me letting her go first.At the third floor landing we came across one of Velma's team covering that approach. A second member was at the door and from inside, I could hear Velma cursing in Hittite under her breath. But first,"I really don't think you'll need your sword, Saku," Delilah advised. "Timothy's not that kind of trouble.""Hey Velma, Crewe (who, together with Constanza, I'd sparred with, way long ago) and Timothy," I loudly announced myself just as I stepped in. "What seems to be the problem?" Timothy sighed and gave a head-toss to my closed bedroom door. Since I didn't want to be an asshole, I turned to Velma. "Let me send a neutral party to check things out." I had so many to choose from, Miyako, Selena, Vincent and Delilah.Saku might kill on general principle. Buffy and Wiesława were Amazons and I was beginning to think that Amazons, shit. I sighed, groaned and lowered my head. I looked to Timothy and clapped my wrists together (slave-like). He nodded. Rhada. Mother-puss-bucket! What was I going to do?"I've changed my mind, Velma, the room is fine," I started off. "I know for a certainty that my life is not imperiled by my visitor. Everyone else, I am about to have sex, so could you please head out to a restaurant and give me an hour, or two?" I took in the rest. Timothy coughed and pointed to the ceiling. "Three hours, " another cough, "four hours." No more coughing."Who is it?" Buffy snarled, lest I forgot that I was her scratching post. She was resenting the lack of scratching going on between us. I was about to tell her I needed some private time,, or just not tell her anything. But I was working on not being a jerk. I pulled Buffy to Timothy's room and gave her the lowdown. She mulled over the information. Her wrapping a hand around the back of my head and pulling me into a steamy kiss was unlooked for."Okay," she smiled. "Please don't think I'm not righteously pissed with the two of you, but I know you are doing the best you can with your limited survival instincts.I'll take care of everyone." Off she went and in moments, the room had cleared out until it was just Timothy and me."She stopped by work this afternoon looking pretty badly beaten up, emotionally," he explained. "I doubt she's slept in three days and she's really confused about all kinds of things. I was in the process of letting her know you weren't going to be back for two more days when the Welcome Wagon arrived.I figured the last thing she needed, before seeing you, was public exposure," he said."Thanks buddy," I hugged him. "A few hundred guys tried to kill me and Aya last night, so we came back early. Now," I steeled myself, opened the door and entered my room. Rhada was at the head of the bed, her knees pulled up to her chin and my pillows stacked up around her in some sad effort at a visual barrier.Her eyes had a sunken quality to them that suggested someone two steps past hopelessness. She was waiting for me to say something, which was an added truckload of bad news in my book. I began to undress in an unhurried manner. The shirt came off. Working the belt free came next."I've missed you," I said in a calm, yet positive manner. No response.I finished undressing while she remained frozen and emotionally clouded. I made some semi-educated guesses. Her mind was probably an incomprehensible cyclone of clashing upbringing principles and adult desires. She didn't need to be built up, Rhada needed to be rescued. That kind of emotional crisis was something I didn't need, or want, at this moment in my life.Rhada had nowhere else to go. Her martial bravery was of no use in the matter of her heart's insistent call. Her fear was of a different nature. She was looking down that unholy, dark corridor that was the last walk of all failed Amazons. She craved her personal slavery to a man and master. It was tough to move farther away from her native culture than that, or so she thought."Have you missed me?" I asked with authority. I ran two fingers along her left jawline. Rhada nodded. It was a rather feeble effort. "I asked you a question.""Yes," she sniffled."I am curious why you are hiding your body from me, Rhada," I prodded her. I wasn't 'curious'; I was peeved and she knew it"I don't know why I'm here," she moaned."Oh, " I mused. I was on her like lightning.She struggled weakly as we rolled around until she was ass-up on my lap. I had her right arm pinned to her back. Two sharp blows rained down on her covered posterior. Just two for now."I asked you a question. We both know your answer was inadequate," I spoke softly. Two more stinging, open-handed slaps to her buttocks. "I have defeated you in battle," two more smacks. "I have repeatedly taken you by force as my captive," two more with her accompanying moan."What makes you think you can defy me now, Rhada?" The promised blows did not fall. "I own you, don't I?" She moaned wantonly from anticipation of the spanking that wasn't coming. The lesson was simple: punishment and reward were mine to dispense, not for her to demand."I'm sorry," she mumbled."The incompetent are sorry, failures are sorry, useless people are sorry," I stated, followed by two more loud, cupped-hand blows on her ass. "People apologize when they commit an error. People apologize if they plan to learn from their mistakes. Now, are you someone else's miserable excuse for a human being, or are you MY person who learns from her lapses in judgment?""I bring shame to my people," she whimpered. Two more smacks fell upon her backside."Why do you insist on insulting me, Rhada?" two more, far harder, spanks landed causing her to gasp in pain. "Of all the Amazons I have defeated, I picked you to be mine, captive, no other. I thought you had the fierce spirit worthy of my fighting prowess.Your crawling up and dying inside disappoints me," I continued. It didn't disappoint me; it scared me. Rhada was so fiery and feisty. Seeing her mentally ground down into a crippled state ate at my mind."I'm afraid, Cáel," she choked out between her tears.The emotional riptide she was going through caused her to shake uncontrollably. I telegraphed my intent to move her, face down, to the middle of the bed. As I straddled her, I dragged her hands over her head and crossed her wrists. I nuzzled her shoulder, the crux of her neck, and ear."What are you afraid of, my captive?" I murmured.The term 'captive' along with the gentle affections brought forth a pleasurable response from her."I am perverse," she whispered. "I want you to take me as I cry and scream. I want to feel your body pressing down on me as you are doing now.I beg to be spanked, lashed, tease and tormented by you. Steal my sight and hearing. Render me helpless and utterly at your mercy, my Cáel," she pleaded. I'd allow the 'my'."And?" I mused."And?" she was confused."I was waiting for you to request something perverse, something I wouldn't do to you," I explained. I punctuated that by pulling her shirt aside and biting down on her shoulder strong enough to leave deep indentations on her flesh."Aha!" she yelped. She still wasn't making the connection, how incredibly stubborn of her."Do you doubt my bravery?" She didn't respond, so I bit into and worried her left earlobe. "Do you doubt my dedication to the Host?""No," she moaned. "You are an excellent warrior.""So we both agree I have earned the right to take you as my captive," I teased her."This is why I find your insolence to be so confusing," I kept up my routine. "It is almost as if you would rather be bound, whipped, beaten, spanked, bitten, lashed, covered with hot wax, blindfolded, and gagged instead of giving me my due obedience." Rhada's deep sensual moan was what I had been looking for. She spread her legs slightly then pushed her ass against my crotch."I am yours," she sniffled slightly. "You defeated me in battle and I can expect no other fate.""Dates take off their clothes. Slaves strip before their masters," I related. Not true. I had enjoyed multiple stripteases in my time and even give a few. What Rhada wanted to know was that I hungered for her naked flesh."You are on top of me," she protested. I pulled her braid to the side and chomped down her right shoulder. That earned me another squeal. Rhada's initial efforts were frantic, inspired by her pain. Within seconds she recalled our shared moments and slowed down. She knew I liked to watch her clothes come off and go back on. I'm odd that way.I rewarded her obedience with alternating kisses and nips to her freshly exposed flesh. As we progressed, Rhada became more insistent for sexual attention. Her finely honed thighs and abdominal muscles ground her buttocks against my cock in a continuous, circular motion. In our current state, she couldn't get her pants and panties off.When I rolled off, Rhada shot me a worried look. First she flashed up fear because she mistook my look for one of anger. In a second, she keyed to my real mood. I was going to own her, stretch her to her limits and then take it one step further. I was going to use my war captive as I saw fit, rip my pleasure from her passion and break her doubts down to their foundations.She shimmied out of her remaining clothing. I rummaged up the appropriate toys with a bit of an amused snort. Odette had organized the 'toy box' (including a bill for 'modernizing and updating' of my equipment.) What girl does that for a guy, categorize sexual aids she knows you are going to use on other women in your life?"Loosen your braid," I directed her after I turned and soaked in the view. She was in the center of the bed, kneeling with her buttock resting on her heels. Rhada's hands rested just above the knees, her great brown eyes had more of their old spark to them. Part of that was caused by my words sinking into her psyche. The rest was her love affair with my physique.Me and all my scars, plus I had a new one for her to judge and appreciate."Small caliber round from a Seven Pillar's QCW-Type 05," I informed her. Amazons loved their weaponry and their martial exploits."Did you kill him?" she asked with her intensity overcoming her attempt at a demur nature."Him and a bunch of other guys," I chose to answer as she unbraided her silky, black hair that cascade down to the small of her back. I was the son of a Chicago working stiff, not some super-soldier."You fought for the Host and killed our enemies," she tried to ease my mind.I wanted to feel bad about what had happened. The horror I had inflicted would never go away."Most of them were burned alive," I enhanced her experience by ripping open my own, fresh mental scar tissue. For Rhada, ruthlessness, martial valor and battlefield accomplishments were their own aphrodisiac.In her translation of events, her captor had proven yet again he was a fearless, masculine champion, a lion-heart. I put one knee on the bed and waited. Rhada had to shuffle to me. It was interesting to see the magnetic effect of the three items I held in my casual grasp, a leather collar, a thin silver-coated chain and a pair of leather handcuffs. I motioned with the cuffs first.I left it for her to discern my intention. I wanted her to put her wrists forward, yet I wanted to train her to know my wishes. Not only would it keep her mind and perceptions occupied, it would give her a needed sense of learning and broadening her education. It was a very subtle narrowing of the eyes that I used to tip her off.She half-turned with her wrists at her back, caught my 'displeasure' and then extended her arms toward me. I cuffed her right wrist, then her left wrist and finally cinched them together with their two bronze links, all the while demanding she retain eye contact with me. With our silent measuring of our true grit, we established our positions.Without that clash of wills, everything else would be tawdry trinkets of no value. As she accepted those bonds, she set aside her willingness to challenge me and embraced our new sense of harmony. A corner had been turned. Submission became the only outcome her destiny allowed. Mamitu; the Amazon belief that the Goddesses put nothing before the sisters that experience hadn't prepared them for.Out of arrogance, she had struck me. Destiny had prepared me for the fight and I had won. In tribute to destiny, Rhada had acknowledged the lesson and was finally learning from it. I yanked her wrists up roughly until they were extended high over her head. Rhada kept them there, as I intended, because now was time for the collar.This time she couldn't keep her eyes from flickering to the device until it passed beneath her chin. With the cuffs, I had been deliberate and relentlessly purposeful. The collar was an easy gesture, me exerting my rights as her captor and master, nothing more. I spared her a smile. Her dark brown-olive complexion, nearly black around the areola and nipple, was extended by the raising of the arms overhead for my viewing pleasure.Lastly, there was the chain. It had clasps at both ends, so I hooked it around the single ring on the collar and pulled Rhada toward me. I feasted on her lips, touched tongue to tongue inside and outside our mouths, and ended up chewing her lower lip. As I pulled and plucked it with my teeth, my fingers began to coax a stiffening of her teats.Gentle caresses turned into vigorous touching that evolved into painful pinches between the thumb and forefinger and energetic plucking. I let my kisses migrate from her lips to nose (briefly) then her cheeks and the underside of her jawline. Rhada made a gasping-choking noise as I nibbled her flesh.My distraction must have worked because she missed my hands moving down. The middle and forefinger of my left became a wedge working between her buttocks. With the right, I led with my middle finger, using my fore- and ring-fingers to part her labia. The clip-rings of the chain were secured on each thumb.Her fluids turned her sex into warm molasses coating folds of molten tenderness. My solo probing finger didn't penetrate, not yet. I ran the length of her vulva vestibule, rubbing her vaginal and urethral openings. Rhada expressed a piteous whine as I stoked her sexual frustrations. I ratcheted up my torture when my left twin fingers reached her sphincter.Tap the opening, tease her with false penetrations. My lips reached her neck right beneath her ear. I pulled in the flesh with a powerful suction, grabbing the tiny tip of taut flesh with my teeth. Her dolorous pleading ramped up as I delved my fingers in simultaneously. Rhada's anal ring pulsed, alternating between ushering my forefinger inside and resisted my progress.I was breaching her defenses without lubrication. It was wiggling, tentative advancement on my part and sensations of extreme sensitivity on her part. By comparison, her vagina virtually sucked me in. Having been denied sex for so long (if you counted two weeks as long) all the while fantasizing to the point of tripwire anticipation, she was quickly rising to orgasm."Do not," I cautioned her. Rhada trembled. Her groans became guttural as she reached down into her physical conditioning to exhibit some control over her racing heart rate and labored breathing. Had I stopped my assault, she might have held out. I didn't. The task for us both was to push her past the point of control. She was going to lose, that was given.How she lost was the lesson. What level of stimulation was going to be too much? She fought it with every fiber of her being. She fought it for me. Rhada sweated profusely and vibrated like a gypsy tambourine. She could not win. She knew I never intended for her to win. But I wanted her to reach down deep and fight.She would fail and I would punish her for her failure, but it would be a punishment that she felt was well-deserved, and she craved that. Even her failure was part of our dynamic, captor and captive. Pain with a purpose. Pain as a thread that united us. She could not wound herself the way I could. Everything she could inflict, she would sense and prepare for.I provided torment from unexpected angles and stimuli in a myriad of forms. Everything faded until only the touch and the pleasure of the messenger remained."Urah, " her opening declaration of the overwhelming tide was animalistic and desperate.For fifteen seconds I continued to play with her as her climax turned upon itself, building and becoming more chaotic. In the back of my mind, I realized my sex play was being cruel to my neighbors. I had to hope the anonymous death threats would keep Mr. Fiennes at bay.I'd deal with my 'friendly' female neighbor later, once I figured out how to repay her for her patience and the cookies she'd sent over when I was ill. For Rhada, it was a temporary cessation of my sexual attention and allowing her to rest her body against mine. I admired her ability to hold her arms aloft. Still,"You failed," I whispered into her ear. Rhada hiccupped. I dragged my fingers covered with her cunt juice up her pubic mount, abdomen, around the belly button and between her breasts. At the conclusion of the trip was the resounding 'click' of that end of the leash being attached to her collar. "I don't think you have been humble before me."I looped the chain around her shoulder, then dragged it over her left breast. She shivered. My next stop was beneath her right breast. Her nipple seemed to swell up as I rubbed the other loop all over her areola. Next under the right mammary, then looping the chain around her right arm before reaching around the back and securing the second clasp.It was both a symbol of her captivity and body ornamentation. The shiny silver links contrasted with her dusky, sweaty flesh.

On this episode of Mortified, Aaron and Leyla kick off our month of romance with the 1940 romcom, "His Girl Friday!" We talk about the importance of tension in comedy, the contradictions of 40s gender expression, and try to pull our mental states out of their steady nosedives.  Watch His Girl Friday on Wikipedia! -- Our theme song is "Obsolete" by Keshco, from the album "Filmmaker's Reference Kit Volume 2."

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are ringing in the New Year with a new podcast. This time they're celebrating the 85th anniversary of His Girl Friday. His Girl Friday is a screwball comedy directed by Howard Hawks. It is the second film adaptation of the play The Front Page. It opened in theaters on January 18, 1940. In the film, Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell), former star reporter of The Morning Post, arrives at the paper to tell her former editor and ex-husband Walter Burns (Cary Grant) she's engaged to marry her fiancé Bruce Baldwin (Ralph Bellamy). Walter asks Hildy to help stop the execution of a condemned man, Earl Williams (John Qualen), before she leaves. However, Walter's motives are less than noble, and the story is more trouble than previously expected. His Girl Friday is a seminal film in the screwball comedy genre, notable for its biting wit and rapid-fire, overlapping dialogue. In 1993, it was selected for the Library of Congress' National Film Registry, for films that are “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”  The film and the play it's based on are in the public domain. The entire movie can be watched in high definition on Wikipedia. Aaron talks about seeing His Girl Friday in college before he and Josh go over the movie's plot, performances, humor, and legacy. Aaron also recommends more Cary Grant movies to Josh and listeners. For more classic films, you can listen to Josh and Aaron's podcasts on Singin' in the Rain and A Hard Day's Night.  His Girl Friday is streaming on Tubi and Pluto TV

Brat summer is over, but Virgo season is here reminding us to know our value and worth!!! Resident Mama, Mama Tish Cyrus pops back by, it's only fair, as she was actually the one to coin Regular Girl Friday, Regular Girl Friday. We talk about being your own advocate, especially as a female, in life and DEFINITELY at the doctor's office, as Kelsey had a not-so-pleasant reminder of that. Let go and let god, am I right?! Stop outsourcing your power and when things and people get in the way of your greatness, remember to not let them deter you. Vince Vaughn reminds us to not dwell on the negative because if we do so we will miss all the positive… and those negative things might get stuck in our bodies.

In this episode, Shanté and Danny watch their oldest movie and find, as expected, racism.

With Kween Kev in London, Kelsey is here holding down the Regular *GIRL* Friday fort (as it's been rebranded to today), with help of course from Natasha and Duane. Actually, one of our special guests deemed it Regular *Girl* Friday, which is only fitting coming from one of the coolest, most badass gals in show business, Tish Cyrus. Tish stops by to discuss the secret to staying grounded in Hollywood and shares something really special one of her girls told her the other day.  We then have to discuss Kelsey's recent therapy epiphanies as she continues to navigate this new chapter of her life, living with her boyfriend, giving both herself and him grace and truly understanding the line that “people that love you, care about how they make you feel…The end!”  A Cosmic Muffin Segment was a must today because how could we NOT talk about this week's Aquarius Supermoon?! Of course, for fun, phoning in another friend who is an astrology EXPERT to help us understand why it all felt soooo heavy this week. To wrap it up, we have one trending thing we need to discuss and it's so mindful, it's so demure. ;)  Kels didn't want to stop talking because she was having the best time, but eventually, we wrap the show with a solid “Bye B” and some classic Ava Max. Wish her luck as she meets the boo's extended family this weekend in NYC!!!

Recapping S3E6: The Other Time  That other time Maggie and Amanda decided to go live on Instagram while recording this episode. Thanks to everyone who joined in on the fun and the conversation! The girls show off their exceptional impersonation skills.They talked about how Donna is truly the poster child for a Girl Friday and Harvey would be a Boy Thursday (at best). Maggie says she would never turn down any kind of pie (listenres-send her a pie!!) Amanda tells her worst bang story (it's not what you think!) They discuss the nuances of Jury Duty in Dallas County and how Amanda only wants to serve on a Grand Jury once she's retired. And Maggie has the cutest way to say charcuterie. :)

The PhilenApocalypse has been postponed! While Philena ain't too thrilled with this development, we were able to keep our already inconsistent schedule with this Howard Hawks double feature, which is like a PhilenApocalypse prequel because her contrarian take on Howard Hawks' screwball classic BRINGING UP BABY (1938) is what landed her on OMFYS. In short, she hates it--AFI Top 100 or no. Because of this, Bob programmed two wildly-different films from the versatile Hawks' filmography, and with wildly different results. First, we've got HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940), another classic screwball comedy from Hawks. Cary Grant is Walter Burns, a conniving newspaper publisher who will go to criminal lengths to keep his best reporter and ex-wife, Hildy Johnson (Rosiland Russell) from leaving his paper so she can get remarried and "be a woman." Then, we've got the sci-fi classic THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (1951). The film's direction is credited to Christian Nyby, but the rumors that Hawks directed it persist. A favorite of Horror Master John Carpenter's, who remade it in 1982. In our opening segment, a discussion of the Tesla Cybertruck devolves into Greg and Bob horrifying Philena by explaining the concept of Andrew "Dice" Clay to her in one of the funniest moments we've ever recorded. We also talk about the horrors of something called Skibidi Toilet for some reason. Plus there are thrills as Greg almost plunges the podcast into chaos as he attempts to win a record on eBay. Does Greg prevail and what is the record? Was it all worth it? Listen and find out!

On this week's episode of the Infernal Schoolhouse Podcast, hosts Bryan and Aaron, along with our Girl Friday, Sam, dive into the craft of mead making.

Alongside laughter and personal anecdotes, they offer insights into how these ancient brewing techniques can deeply enrich the tabletop role-playing game experience.

Tom Nash is the author of “To Whom Shall We Go?: The Biblical Case for the Catholic Church.” Cece & Jennifer Breen tell us all about Girl Friday 4 God.

Kristine Philipp was 15 when her mother told her she needed to get a job to pay her way. A car company hired her to be a 'Girl Friday' - and it came as rather a shock when she learned she had to work more than one day a week.

In this episode of the "Infernal Schoolhouse Podcast," hosts Brian and Aaron, along with their Girl Friday, Sam, explore the transformation of societal views on fantasy and nerd culture from the negative stereotypes of the early eighties to today's widespread acceptance. They share personal stories, such as Aaron's recounting of his mother's passion for nerd culture and her struggle against adversity, to illustrate the profound impact of fantasy role-playing games on self-discovery and social bonding. The discussion highlights the misconceptions about fantasy gaming, its therapeutic benefits, and the role of narrative control and character development in personal growth. By weaving together individual experiences and broader cultural insights, the episode celebrates the value of fantasy and gaming in enhancing creativity, empathy, and community.

What happens when Falk gets stuck in a screwball comedy? Can Falk weed out the humans from the androids? Do androids dream of His Girl Friday? Listen to find out!Do Androids Dream of His Girl Friday? , episode 98 of This Gun in My Hand, was manufactured not by the Tyrell Corporation but by Rob Northrup, using dialogue from the 1940 public domain film His Girl Friday, which was adapted from the 1928 public domain play The Front Page. The part of Walter Burns was played by Cary Grant, with Rosalind Russell as Hildy Johnson and Ralph Bellamy as Bruce Baldwin.

Dialogue in this episode was taken from His Girl Friday. (Link below.) It's excellent but has (CONTENT WARNING) the kind of racism and sexism you might expect in a 1940 film. There's also a one hour Lux Radio Theater adaptation starring Fred MacMurray and Claudette Colbert; a Screen Guild Theater radio adaptation starring Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell squeezed down into a half hour; and an even more offensive, grittier 1970 film of The Front Page starring Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon. And there's a 1931 film version of The Front Page which I have yet to watch.https://archive.org/details/his_girl_fridayCredits:The opening music clip was from The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), with transitional music from His Girl Friday (1940) and the closing music was from Killer Bait (1949), all films in the public domain.

Attention, all you fast-talkin', wisecrackin' cinephiles, 'cause Never Did It's warping back to 1940, the year screwball met satire and Cary Grant met a tiny mustache. Jake's tossed Brad into the whirlwind of overlapping dialogue and rapid-fire romance that is "His Girl Friday," while Brad's sent Jake on a goose chase for Chaplin's timeless, toe-tapping takedown of tyranny in "The Great Dictator." First up, Brad's wrangling with Rosalind Russell's Hildy Johnson, a reporter sharper than a stiletto and quicker than a quip. Get ready for a newsroom brawl of epic proportions as Hildy tries to break free from her ex-husband Walter (Cary Grant, smooth as ever) and his journalistic clutches. Think witty repartee, slapstick hijinks, and enough deadlines to make your head spin. Brad might even confess his secret soft spot for the 1974 remake, "The Front Page," and spark a friendly debate about cinematic legacy! Meanwhile, Jake's navigating the Chaplinverse! He's donned the oversized pants and tiny hat of Adenoid Hynkel, the bumbling would-be Hitler with a penchant for pratfalls. Prepare for hilarious political satire, poignant social commentary, and enough double takes to give your neck a workout. Can Hynkel conquer the inflatable globe? Will Hildy make it to the altar? Tune in, but remember that back in 1940, the laughs were just as sharp as the suits, and the dictators were just as small as their hats. So polish your best one-liners, dust off your bowler hats, and get ready for a comedic collision of the highest order. Hit play and let the good times roll (or topple)! Other movies dicussed in this episode: To Catch a Thief (1955), Charade (1963), The Front Page (1974), All the President's Men (1976), Buddy Buddy (1981), The Iron Lady (2011), Spotlight (2015), Ricky and the Flash (2015), The Post (2017), Let Them All Talk (2020).

This Special Subject is something extra-special: we discuss philosopher Stanley Cavell's idiosyncratic classic of film criticism, Pursuits of Happiness: The Hollywood Comedy of Remarriage and three classic comedies that are the subjects of essays in that book, Leo McCarey's The Awful Truth, Howard Hawks' His Girl Friday, and George Cukor's Adam's RIb. What is Cavell's "comedy of remarriage," and is it really a genre? What does "marriage" mean to Cavell, and what does it have to do with America and democracy? Why does divorce make marriage more romantic? Are the conversations we're having about film in North America getting better or worse? Why should you take an interest in your experience? Join us as we take an interest in our experience of Stanley Cavell and work through these and more questions!

This is the story about how two women left a toxic workplace, launched a better publishing brand, and equipped people with the tools to tell their stories. Today's guest on The Business of You is Leslie “LAM” Miller, the Co-founder and CEO of Girl Friday Productions. GFP is a women-owned and led publishing company, offering indie and hybrid publishing focused on inclusivity and empowerment. In Girl Friday's nearly twenty years, LAM has focused on disrupting business as usual for both publishing processes and organizational leadership with a focus on empathy and radical transparency. The “Girl Friday experience” has kept clients coming back for almost two decades. It begins with a compassionate, curated team devoted to authors' publishing goals and culminates in a book they are elated to call their own. From book coaching to editorial to cover design to marketing strategy, the GFP publishing program produces books of distinction. LAM is passionate about excellent books–but she also emphasizes positive work culture. She and her Co-founder Ingrid Emerick launched GFP after leaving their previous publishing company, where time off was virtually nonexistent and work-life balance did not exist. As young moms, they fought to be able to do the work they loved, while spending time with their families. Now at GFP, they cultivate a culture that celebrates parenthood, individuality, hobbies and interests, and harmony with work. Being an author means that you're an entrepreneur LAM sees the same thing happen again and again in her years in publishing: People who passionately write books and promote them do really well.  However, she also sees individuals who write a book and spend no time promoting it–believing that a company can carry them towards the finish line. LAM reminds us that readers–much like clients–desire a strong connection with us and our brand in order to commit to our message.  While you can publish anything at any time, she serves a lighthearted and humorous reminder that not everything needs to be a book, and not everything will be a bestseller. It's okay to publish something just for your grandkids. And if you decide to tell a great big story to a large audience, make sure you promote it! Clarity attracts the right people, places, and things LAM is unapologetically herself, and she encourages you to be yourself too. She wears her emotions on her sleeve, and that's part of her personal brand.  In this episode, she encourages us to be who we are and live out our values. In our lives, and in our businesses, the right people will be attracted to us. The message at Girl Friday Productions is clear: They are a gender-inclusive, diverse, and anti-racist company. Because they are clear, loud and proud about their messaging, they attract clients that believe in the power of good. Everyone's story deserves to be told At Girl Friday Productions, everyone's story deserves to be told. LAM discusses troubling trends in publishing, and how essential it is that they disrupt the norm that primarily white women get a platform to tell their stories. Even in positions of power in publishing, the executive teams are mostly led by white men. Girl Friday Productions is a loud voice in opposition to the discrimination of the traditional publishing industry.  Now, LAM and the other staff at GFP are working behind the scenes to create exciting new offerings, empowering more diverse voices to tell their stories and reach new audiences. Enjoy this wonderful conversation with Leslie “LAM” Miller on The Business of You! Quotes “Every author is an entrepreneur. Every contract we have, we are teaching entrepreneurship.” “We were publishing all these books about feminism and motherhood. At the same time, I was having my first child and my business partner Ingrid was having her second. We had three weeks of maternity leave, typing over their heads and taking meetings. We asked to reduce our hours. The answer that came back was, we'll pay you less…but we'll reduce your hours and your workload. But it didn't change at all! It was so frustrating.” “You shouldn't have to choose between being the human that you are most of the time, and the person you are at work. I think you can be happier and it should be more sustainable.” “We scan the landscape and ask, how can we better allow people to share their stories? That's what we're really passionate about. We produce audiobooks for people now! We produce eBooks. We look for new marketing opportunities. We look at social media, and what it does for authors.” “Indie publishing, or self-publishing, used to be such a dirty word. But we built this incredible program. We aren't going to do the same work as a traditional publishing company - we do better work! We are so proud of these books. We take better care of you.” “If you want to publish a book so that your grandchild can have it, don't do any marketing. But if you want to sell copies, you absolutely need to have effective strategies.” “We give people a report that says, this is your ideal reader, where they're hanging out, and how to reach them.” “We don't work on content that doesn't help the world.” “We would love to pass on what we know, and equip more people to tell their stories.” “Everyone's stories deserve to be heard. And there are a lot of stories that are being kept out of the industry.” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit the website for Girl Friday Productions at www.girlfridayproductions.com  Follow Girl Friday Productions on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/girlfridayproductions/  Follow Girl Friday Productions on Facebook at  https://www.facebook.com/GirlFridayProductions Connect with LAM on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslielammiller/

It's the launch day for Sally's new book, The Green Lady, and Sally is feeling the pressure, especially as her neighbours have left her alone on the boat. In the middle of the night, she reads an 18th century classic, Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, finding commonality in its psychological upswings and downswings, the melodrama, the despair and the comforts, of its narrator, who has turned to writing in his journal to cope with his lonely castaway life. Brought back to the world by the sound of children playing outside, Sally has to rely on the kindness of a Girl Friday neighbour to refill her water tank. She reflects on the importance of willpower, determination, and the practice of paying attention. Robinson Crusoe, published by Daniel Defoe in 1719, is often said to be the first English novel; a form of spiritual autobiography and the beginnings of realistic fiction in English.  I Am is a poem written by John Clare in 1844 or 1845, while the author was a patient in the Northampton General Lunatic Asylum. Clare (1793 to 1864) was the son of a farm labourer and struggled for most of his life to earn money for his family while pursuing his literary ambitions, living for some time as a vagrant. I Am is his most famous poem, expressing his deep sense of isolation from society and his family as he struggled with his mental health.

Before she was directing movies about iconic figures (becoming something of an icon herself in the process) Mary Harron was a journalist. And before that, she was inspired by characters like Rosalind Russell's Hildy Johnson in HIS GIRL FRIDAY -- a woman who is valued for her incomparable skill and undeniable smarts, who can't quite seem to leave her complicated profession behind for what society deems a more "respectable" life.  Mary's new movie is DALíLAND, in theaters and on demand now.Then Jordan's got one quick thing about the trailer for the new Luca Guadagnino movie, CHALLENGERS.***With Jordan Crucchiola and Mary Harron

On today's season finale we're joined by a national treasure, and a name synonymous with travel, Dame Joanna Lumley. Joanna's appetite for adventure was deeply engrained from childhood. She was born in Kashmir in the last days of British India, the daughter of an army officer who served with the Gurkhas. Throughout her childhood her parents lived in Asia, moving to Hong Kong and Malaysia, while she spent term times at school in England.From her early days as a fashion model, gracing the covers of magazines and strutting down runway, Joanna Lumley was destined for greatness. But it was her iconic role as Patsy in the hit TV series "Absolutely Fabulous" that truly catapulted her into the hearts of millions. I love Wikipedia's description of Patsy - “an alcoholic, a chain smoker, and a frequent recreational drug user. She carries drugs with her at all times, storing joints in her trademark beehive."After surviving solo on a desert island, on the groundbreaking show Girl Friday, Joanna soon became as synonymous with travel as she was with Ab Fab, setting off on epic journeys that would make even the most seasoned globetrotter green with envy, from Japan and India to the Caribbean and the Silk Route. What makes her so remarkable is not just her fearless spirit but her genuine love for the people she meets along the way. She champions causes close to her heart, advocating for the rights of the Gurkhas, supporting endless charities, and shedding light on the important issues affecting our world.So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready as we embark on a journey through the extraordinary life and awe-inspiring travels of Joanna Lumley, from Malaysia to Uzbekistan, Italy to Indonesia.Destination Recap:Kashmir, India Hong KongMalaysiaBatu Caves, Selangor, Malaysia MadagascarDelhi, IndiaUzbekistan Tash Rabat, Kyrgzystan Sienna, ItalyBanda Islands, IndonesiaSudanRomaniaJoanna Lumley's Spice Trail Adventure starts on 5th July at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.With thanks to today's sponsors:Citalia - Discover the real Italy with Citalia, the UK's leading Italian holiday specialists.

Before she settles down to life of homemaking, security, and insurance policies with Bruce Baldwin in Albany, star reporter Hildy Johnson has one more story to write for her ex-husband and ex-boss Walter Burns, editor of the Morning Post. Hildy must write up an interview with convicted killer Earl Williams that will grant him a last-minute reprieve on the basis of insanity. The ingenious angle she finds to prove he's insane: Earl listened to so many soapbox speeches in the park about the socialist concept of “production for use” that when a gun was placed into his hands, he had to shoot it. Howard Hawks's 1940 film His Girl Friday knits together two plots from two very different genres. One is a romantic comedy that intends to reunite its main couple in something like wedded bliss. The other is a dark drama of murder and corruption, complete with a gallows lurking just outside the window and a suicide attempt that takes place on screen. Yet Earl Williams and Hildy Johnson's fates in their respective plots are twinned. Both are, in a sense, looking for their own reprieves. And Hildy has her own production-for-use dilemma. What was she made for—the life of a newspaperman, or the life of a housewife? To what kinds of production should we devote our own lives? What are we made for—risk and adventure or security and insurance? Wes & Erin discuss.
