Death was a major part of everyday life in the Victorian era, and people developed elaborate ways to mourn, remember, and preserve the dead. In this episode of Lunatics Radio Hour, we explore the history of Victorian funerary traditions and the social and historical circumstances that shaped them in Britain and the United States. We look at Victorian mourning customs, postmortem photography, mourning jewelry, human hair art, funeral rituals, embalming, funeral biscuits, mourning stationery, death masks, and Victorian cemeteries. We also examine how the American Civil War helped popularize embalming in the United States and how Queen Victoria's mourning for Prince Albert influenced Victorian mourning culture. Along the way, we separate historical practices from later myths, including the popular story of Victorian "tear catchers." Finally, we trace these traditions into Gothic literature and horror movies, looking at how Victorian cemeteries, mourning clothes, old photographs, preserved bodies, and memorial objects became part of the visual language of supernatural horror. Because the Victorians weren't trying to make death scary. They were trying to find ways to live with it. Follow us on social media @ TheLunaticsProject. Get Lunatics Merch here.

Seeking three quiet months away from New York City, Jeremy retreats to an isolated farm in rural New Jersey with little more than a roomful of books and plans to spend the summer immersed in the classics of Gothic literature. At first, Poroth Farm seems ideal. His landlords, Sarr and Deborah Poroth, are reserved but welcoming, the countryside is peaceful, and Jeremy finally has all the solitude he could want. Then the natural rhythms of the farm begin to falter. Something strange moves through the woods. Animals behave in ways Jeremy cannot explain. Familiar creatures become suddenly unfamiliar. And as the summer wears on, Jeremy's comfortable skepticism is tested by a mounting series of incidents that seem increasingly difficult to dismiss as coincidence, superstition, or imagination. Surrounded by the very horror stories he came there to study, Jeremy begins to confront a far more disturbing possibility: perhaps the darkest ideas preserved in old books were never entirely fictional.T.E.D. Klein's “The Events at Poroth Farm” is a masterful slow burn of isolation, paranoia, cosmic dread, and creeping transformation, now presented as a standalone audio horror release and performed by Erik Peabody, longtime host of Horror Hill.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

At the Book Club, the Dreadfuls are brought together for the first time as a terrifying new...or perhaps old...danger stalks London.

In 533, a twenty-eight-year-old general named Belisarius sailed from Constantinople with 15,000 men to reconquer North Africa from the Vandals, a kingdom that had held it for nearly a century since the sack of Rome. The last time the Eastern Empire had attempted the crossing, the entire fleet had been destroyed. Belisarius landed, defeated the Vandal king in two battles, entered Carthage without a fight, sat on the enemy's throne, and was awarded the first proper Roman triumph in five hundred years. Then Justinian sent him to retake Italy with 7,000 troops. He took Sicily, took Naples, took Rome, and held it against a Gothic army that outnumbered him roughly twenty-to-one for over a year, personally leading cavalry charges from the crumbling Aurelian Walls. When the Goths offered him the crown of the Western Roman Empire, he pretended to accept, walked into Ravenna, arrested the Gothic leadership, and shipped them to Constantinople. Italy was Roman again. And Justinian, terrified of the man who had made it possible, recalled him, stripped his command, and never gave him the resources to finish anything again. Today's guests are Matteo and Matthew Storm, the father-and-son hosts of Lost Roman Heroes, who devoted a five-part series and over five hours to the life of Belisarius. We discuss why a man who did more than anyone since Aurelian to restore the Roman Empire has been almost completely erased from popular memory, how the Plague of Justinian and a volcanic winter destroyed everything Belisarius had reconquered, why Procopius wrote two radically contradictory portraits of the same man, and whether Antonina was the most unfairly maligned woman in Byzantine history or one of its most destructive. We look at why Justinian gave the eunuch Narses everything he never gave Belisarius and what that reveals about how empires manage the men they depend on, why the legend of Belisarius blinded and begging in the streets has persisted for fifteen hundred years despite being almost certainly false, and whether a civilization truly dies when its last true believer falls.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cloverfield is a 2008 American found footage science fiction horror film directed by Matt Reeves and written by Drew Goddard and produced by JJ Abrams. It stars Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas, T.J. Miller, Michael Stahl-David, Mike Vogel, and Odette Yustman. In the film, six friends attempt to flee from a monster that attacks New York City. The film's overture (that plays over the end credits), entitled Roar!, was composed by oft-JJ collaborator Michael Giacchino.

Randall's path to Kosmogonia began in 1973, when an architectural magazine called Shelter introduced him to sacred geometry while documenting a geodesic dome he and his brother Rhoen built in rural Minnesota. What started as a study of how Greek, Egyptian, and Gothic builders solved the problem of optimal interaction with the environment became a fifty-year obsession, and a parallel career as a homeschool tutor in mathematics, geometry, and geology gave him direct insight into education outside what he calls the industrial indoctrination model. The course he is launching covers practical applications most people never connect to geometry: a dodecahedron's internal angles total 6,480 degrees, exactly one quarter of the roughly 26,000-year precessional cycle of the Earth's axis, a numerical correlation between spatial and temporal patterns that Randall argues was understood by ancient cultures and is foundational to his curriculum.https://kosmogoniauniversity.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Every culture creates monsters, but what exactly are we trying to warn ourselves about?Lacey sits down with Dr. Emily Zarka - Host of the PBS series ‘Monstrum' to explore folklore, horror and the creatures hiding inside our oldest stories. From oral traditions and Gothic literature to television, movies and modern popular culture, Emily examines how monsters change shape while the human fears behind them remain strangely familiar. This is a conversation about what monsters represent, why folklore survives and what happens when the creature in the story tells us more about humanity than humanity may be comfortable admitting.Turns out the monster under the bed may have been making a point.Prefer to watch and listen without adverts?

Kindly commissioned and sponsored by Gavin Critchley for his friend Victoria, a lover of dolls' houses... A collector buys a Gothic dolls' house for sixty guineas — a museum piece, the dealer calls it, and means it more than he says. Six feet of Strawberry Hill in miniature: a chapel, a stable block, a drawer of tiny embroidered clothes. He spends a happy evening setting its rooms in order, delighted with his find. There's no clock within earshot — none on the stair, none in the stable, none in the distant church tower. And yet, at one in the morning, a bell tolls once. "The Haunted Dolls' House" was first published in the Empire Review in February 1923, and later collected in M. R. James's A Warning to the Curious. M. R. James (1862–1936) was Provost of Eton and King's College, Cambridge, and a distinguished medieval scholar — antiquarian interests that shaped his ghost stories as much as his day job.

Paid subscribers also get access to our CUJOPLEX Discord and The Weather Report, a monthly episode series where we take stock of where the cultural winds are blowing and tell you what's rained into our brains. Catch last month's episode, where we dig into the rise of “waiting-in-line culture” in cities across America, the Spotify vs. Kalshi saga, Lebron James' post-factual free agency, and more.Hi pals. While we're off on vacation this week, we decided to do something a little different for this week's show.If you checked out last month's Weather Report, you probably heard that Andrea recently had the opportunity to participate in a multimedia installation at LA's National Museum of the Aftermath called “California Gothic” that dives into the question of what Los Angeles, and the lives of those who live there, will look like after collapse.The project is the brainchild of Gina Delvac and James Kim, two of the most creative minds working in audio storytelling today. For “California Gothic,” they commissioned audio creators, journalists, writers, and artists (Andrea included) to imagine a future where their favorite place in Los Angeles no longer exists, and then to create a speculative audio story about it — short prose, an intimate fiction scene, an ambient piece, or something surreal that doesn't fall into any of those. They ask: What memories reverberate from this place? What memories can still be heard? What have we lost?While “California Gothic” was (at the time anyway) a one-off event, we were so moved by the vision and creativity of these experimental pieces – which range from sound collages, to surrealist scifi, to letters from future selves – that we thought it would make for a sweet summer treat to feature them here on CUJO.Today's episode features six of those pieces, each imagining a different place in Los Angeles as remembered in a post-apocalyptic future. But first, Gina joins us for a quick chat about the meaning of “California Gothic,” why spoken audio should be recognized as an art form as much as a commercial output, and what's in store for the project beyond “California Gothic.” If you have ideas or want to get involved with future iterations of the project, reach out to Gina at gdelvac@gmail.com California GothicCuratorsGina Delvac is a native Angelena and podcast showrunner, audio creator, and curator. Her work includes projects like Call Your Girlfriend, Bandsplain, and Lost Notes: Groupies.James Kim is the EP of original programming at Lemonada, and he previously made the fiction podcast Moonface, the Apple TV documentary series Magnificent Jerk, and was the showrunner for the HBO/TCM show Talking Pictures.ContributorsJennifer Swann: Shatto 39 Lanes bowling alley, Koreatown (18:45)Jenn Swann is a journalist, radio producer, and the writer and host of the podcast series My Friend Daisy.

Today Del Sandeen returns to the show to chat about one of my favorite themes, “Sisters in Gothic.” Del's' new book, THESE WALLS REMEMBER, is the perfect tie-in to this topic, and it was really interesting that I found someone else who is an only child that shared my interest and enthusiasm for sisters as a character type in Gothic and Horror. There is a lot of range in the books we recommend. All links and show notes available at https://www.sheworeblackpodcast.com/

What if the buildings that help us tackle climate change were also the buildings that lift our spirits?We talk a great deal about the performance of buildings: how to reduce carbon, manage heat, conserve energy, deal with water and increase biodiversity. But perhaps we need to ask another question. What should these buildings look and feel like?Download a copy of the Monograph for free here: https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com/shop/living-architecture-monograph-journal-of-biophilic-design For architect and Alive Labs founder Nicky Naidu, the answer is not to choose between performance and beauty. We should expect both.Nicky has spent 20 years working in architecture, including with Foster + Partners, Arup and Wilkinson Eyre, before stepping away from conventional practice to explore different ways of living and building. His journey ultimately led to Alive Labs, where he is developing bioreceptive materials designed to allow nature to become part of architecture itself.His starting point is philosophical.“We build what we are.”For Nicky, buildings are a reflection of the societies that create them. If we want a society that values nature, connection and care, perhaps our architecture should express those values too.That thinking has led Alive Labs to develop Terranite, a bioreceptive, carbon-negative construction material designed to support biological colonisation. Rather than simply attaching vegetation to a building, the material creates a substrate in which nature can participate.Moss is central to the approach. An ancient and remarkably resilient organism, it can absorb atmospheric pollutants, retain water, contribute to water filtration and provide thermal benefits. Alive Labs' system is designed to help reduce surface temperatures, while moss can contribute to cooling through evaporative processes and insulation in colder conditions.The implications for cities are considerable. Our buildings could become part of the infrastructure that helps address urban heat, stormwater and biodiversity loss rather than simply contributing to those pressures.But there is another opportunity here – and it is one we don't discuss enough.Beauty.Naidu questions the contemporary obsession with architecture as a diagram or a highly efficient box.“No one wants to live in a diagram, right?”He points instead towards the great architectural traditions of the past: Gothic cathedrals, Renaissance buildings and ancient temples, where proportion, geometry, ornament and symbolism were connected to ideas about nature, mathematics, spirituality and the cosmos.This is particularly relevant to Biophilic Design.Why shouldn't climate-responsive buildings be beautiful? Why shouldn't cladding become an opportunity for pattern, texture, shadow, planting and delight? Why should a building envelope have to be a flat, anonymous surface?Think about Palladian architecture and its extraordinary attention to proportion and rhythm. Think about the awe created by Gothic architecture. Think about the tactile qualities of natural materials. Now imagine bringing that same ambition into the buildings of the future – using contemporary materials and living systems that also cool, insulate, capture water and support biodiversity.As Nicky puts it, “net zero alone” is not enough. The ambition should be to do more.This could change how we think about the facade. It is no longer simply a protective skin between inside and outside. It can become infrastructure: environmental, ecological, sensory and cultural.And this applies inside as well as out. Alive Labs is developing living interior systems that can bring nature into schools, hospitals, workplaces and other buildings, creating spaces that people can see, touch and experience.Perhaps this is where the next chapter of Biophilic Design lies: not simply putting nature into buildings, but designing buildings that work with nature.Because, ultimately, architecture is about more than solving today's problems.“Buildings and our expressions in them are an expression of hope.”That feels like a good place to start imagining our cities of the future.The Journal of Biophilic Design has produced a Monograph with Nicky Naidu and Alive Labs, exploring the ideas, materials and thinking behind this pioneering approach to living architecture. The Monograph is available to explore alongside our interview with Nicky. https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com/biophilic-design-monographsFind out more about Alive LabsAlive Labs: www.alivelabs.co.ukAbout the Journal of Biophilic DesignThe Journal of Biophilic Design explores the intersection of nature, science, architecture, interiors, landscape, environmental psychology, health and wellbeing – bridging the gap between research and practice.Subscribe, explore our latest issues and discover more conversations with the people shaping the future of Biophilic Design.#BiophilicDesign #AliveLabs #NickyNaidu #LivingArchitecture #BioreceptiveDesign #Architecture #SustainableArchitecture #RegenerativeDesign #UrbanDesign #Moss #GreenInfrastructure #ClimateResilience #BiomimeticDesignAnd listeners don't forget our FREE newsletter giveaway! https://mailchi.mp/journalofbiophilicdesign.com/50-free-subscription-promotionSign up before the end of August 2026 and you'll be entered into our prize draw to win one of 50 digital subscriptions to The Journal of Biophilic Design.Join thousands of readers receiving the latest biophilic design inspiration, research and projects every week.

Send us Fan MailWhat can the great Gothic cathedrals teach us about God, beauty, evangelization, and our own call to holiness?In this episode of Gotta Be Saints, I sit down with Branden Stanley of Spirit Juice Studios, co-director of Bishop Robert Barron's new documentary, Heaven in Stone and Glass. Rather than simply talking about how the film was made, we dive into the deeper ideas behind it: why beauty has the power to stop us in our tracks, how sacred architecture can draw people toward God, and why the Church should never underestimate beauty as a means of evangelization.Branden shares his experience filming some of France's greatest Gothic cathedrals, what these buildings communicate about God, and why beauty, alongside truth and goodness, remains essential to the Church's mission. We also discuss what ordinary Catholics can learn from the people who built these cathedrals and how each of us can create something beautiful with our own lives that points others toward Christ.Heaven in Stone and GlassBishop Robert Barron's Heaven in Stone and Glass takes viewers on a cinematic pilgrimage through five of France's great Gothic cathedrals and explores the spiritual and theological truths expressed through their architecture.The film will be in theaters nationwide on September 20 and 23, 2026.Learn more and get tickets for Heaven in Stone and GlassAbout Branden StanleyBranden Stanley is a filmmaker and creative leader at Spirit Juice Studios.

Mary Shelley didn't just create Frankenstein - she helped invent modern science fiction while forever changing the landscape of horror. This episode, we explore her remarkable life: her radical parents, scandalous romance with Percy Shelley, the personal tragedies that shaped her, and the stormy night that gave birth to one of literature's greatest monsters. Along the way, we'll also trace how a novel written by an eighteen-year-old became one of the most influential stories ever told, inspiring centuries of debate about science, humanity, and what it truly means to be a creator.

On this week's episode of Local Legends Martin chats with best-selling author of over 80 books, Sue Bentley! As Sue explains, her decision to 'become a writer' didn't happen particularly early in her life, though she was ever a reader, inspired by books like Denys Watkins-Pitchford's The Little Grey Men, Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows, and C.S. Lewis' The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe.Only when she was a Mum with children off at school did she decide to put pen to paper, and after ten years of work found herself in print - as an erotic novelist, working under the first of what soon became many pen names!From children's fairy stories to ghost written celebrity books to the dark Gothic fantasy she most enjoys writing today, she has had a fascinating career, rooted in a fascinating place!We dig into Northamptonshire's folklore and heritage, including Sue's love of the Romantic poet John Clare, and, because it's 'Birth Week' on Three Ravens we chat birth folklore as well, including fairy 'stocks', changelings, and 'Chime Children'.We of course get into Sue's most recent novels as well, including We Other, Second Skin, and her upcoming book Flesh Endures - and along the way dig into condescending ideas of 'Women's Fiction' and Romantasy, the significance of the Lang Fairy Tales, and a whole bunch more!Learn more about Sue and her wonderful books at https://www.suebentley.co.uk - though Sue's brand new website goes live on 28th August - which is also the day of the cover reveal for Flesh Endures, so mark your diaries!And as for where to find Sue on social media, she is on Instagram @therealsuebentley, Facebook @suebentleyauthor and on TikTok @suebentley09About Three Ravens

Today I welcome Olivie Blake to the show to discuss her new Hollywood set Gothic novel, DREAMLAND. You might know her from her fantasy sensation, THE ATLAS SIX, but she writes Horror as well, with an intelligence and depth that I am delighted to highlight here. We chat about everything from her use of identity for Gothic isolation to her use of fires as eco-horror. It's a great conversation and it was my honor to have her on the show.

JT Follows JC joins Nephilim Death Squad for a wide-ranging conversation connecting UFO disclosure, alien encounters, the Nephilim, the Book of Enoch, MKUltra, Project Monarch, Tartaria, old world architecture, artificial intelligence, and Biblical prophecy through a Christian worldview.David Lee Corbo, Matthew Heppner, and JT Follows JC (Joe Telford) begin by discussing JT's journey from working in construction to creating content full-time. That background leads directly into questions surrounding Tartaria, Greco-Roman architecture, Gothic cathedrals, cymatics, frequency, resonance, hidden technology, mysterious stonework, and seemingly impossible construction timelines. Could previous civilizations have understood sound, vibration, energy, and architecture differently than we do today?The conversation then turns toward UFO disclosure and the modern alien narrative. The guys analyze Spielberg's Disclosure Day, alien abduction experiences, astral simulation theories, Skinwalker mythology, MKUltra, Project Monarch, trauma-based dissociation, and occult symbolism appearing throughout movies and television. From Zoolander and Gravity Falls to Stranger Things, they ask whether entertainment is simply fiction—or conditioning audiences to interpret spiritual phenomena through a different framework.Could AI eventually replace the alien invasion narrative? Why are discussions about demons, the Nephilim, and the Book of Enoch becoming increasingly mainstream? The episode explores Tucker Carlson, modern disclosure conversations, the Anunnaki narrative, the Watchers, Greek mythology, The Odyssey, and possible Biblical parallels involving fallen spiritual beings.The final section goes deep into Scripture and theology: Pharaoh's hardened heart, free will, predestination, manufactured prophecy, Israel, replacement theology versus fulfillment, Rahab, Ruth, Passover, the mixed multitude, hyssop, Jesus Christ, the Book of Life, and once saved always saved.Finally, the guys return to the central question: Are alien and UAP encounters actually demonic or spiritual phenomena masquerading as something physical?What do you think—physical extraterrestrials, demonic deception, psychological manipulation, or something even more complicated? Join the discussion in the comments.Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere podcasts are available.► Subscribe for more Biblical analysis, Christian worldview discussions, and conspiracy research through a Biblical lens.JT Follows JC — LinksAll Links / Linktree:https://linktr.ee/jtfollowsjcYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@jtfollowsjcInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/jtfollowsjc/X / Twitter:https://x.com/jtfollowsjcTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@jt_follows_jcFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/JTFOLLOWSJCRumble:https://rumble.com/user/jtfollowsjcSpotify – JT's Mix Tape:https://open.spotify.com/show/2y27vDkaiRVtXkBXAdDo6HAncient Angels:https://www.ancientangelsmovie.com/00:00 Intro: Brohemian Grove VIP Eve01:23 Meet JT Follows JC03:54 From Construction to Full-Time Content Creator06:00 Tartaria, Old World Buildings & Meltology11:48 Hoover Dam, Symbolism & Secret Societies13:38 Cymatics, Frequency & Cathedral Architecture16:08 Impossible Old World Construction Timelines?21:57 UFO Disclosure & Hidden Technology23:47 Spielberg's Disclosure Day & the Alien Narrative30:24 Astral Simulation & Alien Abductions36:11 Project Monarch, MKUltra & Trauma Programming39:34 Are Aliens Demons?

Kurt, Taylor, and Steve explore Robert Eggers' Nosferatu, breaking down its haunting visuals, Gothic atmosphere, and Bill Skarsgård's chilling Count Orlok. The crew compares the film to previous adaptations while discussing its stunning craftsmanship and whether it deserves recognition as one of the finest modern horror films.

Leap Castle in Ireland had it's beginnings in blood and death and is one of the longest continually inhabited castles in the world. Gothic windows and ivy covered towers give the castle a truly stereotypical look. The history contained within the castle's walls is fascinating and covers centuries of war and tragedies and contains elements of a murder soap opera. Castles and ghosts just seem to go together and Leap Castle is no different. There seems to be several spirits here, including a mysterious elemental. Join us for the history and hauntings of Leap Castle.  Check out the website: http://historygoesbump.com Music used in this episode: Main Theme: Creepy Carnival Theme  Created and produced by History Goes Bump Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

In this episode, we continue our book study on Friendship in the Lord and reflect on the gift of friendship as a foretaste of heaven and a living image of God's love. We talk about how we are meant to journey through life with each other, how God bonds us together along the way, and how these friendships are meant to last forever. We also discuss the gift of praising God for our friends, what it means to behold and not possess beauty, and how focusing on gratitude allows us to hold joy and sorrow in tension.    Announcement: You can buy your copy of Friendship in the Lord from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: Who has accompanied you through the valleys and mountaintops of your life? When do I show up to my friendships from a place of woundedness, deficiency, or insecurity? How is the Lord inviting me into deeper security? What is the Lord inviting me to delight in? How have I turned my unmet expectations into demands in my friendships?   Discussion Questions: What are you grateful for? Where in your life are you experiencing the Lord's presence in the midst of suffering? When have unmet expectations turned into demands on a relationship?  How do you cultivate delight and gratitude in your life?   Quote to Ponder: "Friends in the Lord always turn one another toward the Lord. They are not forever gazing at each other, but together they look to the Lord and to their brothers and sisters in the Lord." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 101)   Scripture for Lectio: "We must no longer be children, tossed to and fro and blown about by every wind of doctrine, by people's trickery, by their craftiness in deceitful scheming.  But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,  from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every ligament with which it is equipped, as each part is working properly, promotes the body's growth in building itself up in love." (Ephesians 4:14-17)    Sponsor - Word on Fire's new film, Heaven in Stone and Glass, produced in partnership with Spirit Juice Studios: Beauty has the power to draw us beyond ourselves and point us toward something more. One of our favorite places in the United States is the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. When we are there, beauty has a way of speaking to the ache that we can't name. It is as though our soul knows where it belongs. It feels like a homecoming. Word on Fire's Heaven in Stone and Glass is a new film exploring the beauty, meaning, and evangelizing power of sacred architecture. Journey across France with Bishop Barron as he explores five of the world's most iconic Gothic cathedrals: Chartres, Notre-Dame, Reims, Amiens, and Saint-Denis. Through soaring arches, stained glass, sacred imagery, and centuries of history, Bishop Barron reveals the theological meaning embedded within these extraordinary spaces and explores why their beauty continues to stir something deep within the human soul. Heaven in Stone and Glass invites believers and skeptics alike on a cinematic pilgrimage and asks us to consider what these sacred spaces have proclaimed for centuries: that beauty can reveal something about God and awaken us to the transcendent. Word on Fire's Heaven in Stone and Glass, a production of Spirit Juice Studios, is coming to theaters nationwide on September 20th and 23rd.

On this episode of Random Encounter, we're taking a figurative deep dive into some DLC and a remake of a classic game!First, Ben is following up on his glowing Pokémon Pokopia review with a look at the game's new DLC, Bubbly Basin. Just like in the base game, you play as a Ditto rebuilding society, but this time you're doing it under the sea! With a wealth of quality-of-life features, a new town, and a ton of new Pokémon, is this DLC worth buying?Then, Hagen is making his first appearance on Random Encounter to chat about a remake of one of his all-time favorites, Gothic 1 Remake. When the original was released in 2001, it became a cult classic that is still loved today. Unlike many remakes, this one is shockingly faithful to the original! Does Hagen love it just as much now as he did way back when?Featuring: Jono Logan, Ben Love, and Hagen McMenemy; Edited by Jono LoganGet in Touch:RPGFan.comRPGFan ShopEmail us: podcast@rpgfan.comTwitter: @rpgfancomBluesky: @rpgfan.bsky.socialInstagram: @rpgfancomThreads: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancomThis Episode's Related Links:Pokemon Pokopia ReviewGothic 1 Remake Review

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit amwriting.substack.comJennie Nash hosts a hot seat coaching episode with #amwriting producer Andrew Perrella, who shares a 5,000-word draft of his Gothic vampire novel to be offered to paid subscribers. Jennie praises the draft as unusually strong and “authoritative,” then coaches Andrew on higher-level editorial concerns: pacing, density of information before the action, and adding more interiority so readers understand Abrianna's reactions and risk-taking, especially her choice to follow a vampire into an alley.They discuss the funeral setting, the presence of major characters (including an executor and Seward), and the theme that multiple people are watching Abrianna while the reader lacks key knowledge (including that the vampire is her mother). Jennie recommends using and updating the blueprint as a living “as-is” outline to track reveals, and they set a four-week deadline for Andrew to deliver 50 pages plus the blueprint.

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. We're delighted to announce that a new feature film by Bishop Robert Barron will be hitting theaters—yes, theaters—soon. The full-length documentary, entitled Heaven in Stone and Glass, draws on the collective shock and sadness the world experienced watching Paris's Cathedral of Notre-Dame burn in 2019 to explore the enduring philosophical, theological, aesthetic, moral, and evangelical significance of the great Gothic cathedrals of France. Recognizing the potential destruction of Notre-Dame—happily, it has since been restored—as much more than the loss of a historic building, Bishop Barron personally walks us through Gothicism's soaring architecture and richly detailed symbolism to explain everything from the unity and diversity of creation, the nature of the human person, the objectivity of beauty, the meaning of the incarnation, the living communion of saints, and the hope of the beatific vision, and how all of this matters more than ever for a rapidly secularizing West at risk of losing its Christian civilizational identity. Here to share the story behind the making of the film, and what he hopes audiences will take away from it, is Bishop Robert Barron.
