The focus for this episode is the ImpossibleQuest that Commodus is calling “The Never-Ending Boss Fight”. So, we'll be examining some stories of undefeatable warriors and epic duels. We'll start with a hero who has a centuries-long redemption arc – and along the way, he becomes immortal not just once but multiple times. Then we'll learn the story of a green knight who likes really weird party games, and we'll run through the series of duels that leads up to the end of the Trojan War.

As Dan and Becky are on vacation, the original cast of A24 Rocks comes back to review one of the most beloved A24 films of all time in The Green Knight. Directed by David Lowery, and starring Dev Patel, The Green Knight is about a nephew of King Arthur playing a Christmas game with a fantasy creature called The Green Knight. The Green Knight challenges someone in King Arthur's court to give him a blow, and in return, the Green Knight will give them blow back to them next Christmas. Gawain answers this challenge by chopping off his head. And as next Christmas approaches, Gawain sets off on an arduous journey to complete the Christmas game and find the courage to receive what he gave the Green Knight.

We take a dive into Arthuriana, adaptation, and more, as we talk about The Green Knight wit our good friend Jay! Considering how not only the poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight connects with the Dev Patel film, but also exploring the themes involved and how they can be treated by a contemporary framing. And, of course, as we talk about adapting things, we go beyond just this pair, briefly going into Scorcese's The Last Temptation of Christ, but also interpretations of broader Arthuriana, and of course, how could we not go into Lord of the Rings? Lots to dive into and explore in history and today with this one, enjoy!   Check out Jay on Library Punk: http://librarypunk.gay/   If you can and are interested in early episodes and our bonus content, soon to be plenty more, check out our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leftpage  Also!

England is full of history… but so much has been forgotten. In this video I sit down with Jack from Past and Curious to uncover the stories that have faded from time. We talk sin eating, the first English fairy story, the pagan texts of the Anglo Saxons... all the way to a fascinating conspiracy Jack may have uncovered related to Gawain and the Green Knight. It's all here!* I recommend watching the accompanying video as oppose to just listening, as I have included helpful details and visuals to bring the conversation to life *

In this episode, I sit down with author, researcher, and consulting hypnotist Angel Millar to explore his fascinating book, The Supernatural Woman and the Male Initiate: Bonded Through Dreams.Together, we journey into the mysterious feminine beings who have appeared throughout mythology, dreams, literature, and esoteric traditions - not simply as muses or lovers, but as protectors, teachers, initiators, and powerful forces capable of transforming a man's character and consciousness.From the Norse fylgja, Valkyries, Morgan le Fay, The Wife of Bath, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, to guardian angels, shamanic dream wives, succubi, fairy beings, Freemasonry, sex magic, and the lost purpose of initiation, we explore some of the strangest and most overlooked corners of the Western mystery tradition.We also discuss whether these supernatural beings are archetypes, independent consciousnesses, or multidimensional intelligences; why true initiation must create a permanent transformation of consciousness; how Christianity changed the Western relationship with the physical body; and why caution and discernment are essential when working with occult forces.Later, we dive into the ancient meaning of the daemon, the true nature of genius, creativity received through dreams, altered states of consciousness, self-hypnosis, hypnagogic visions, and the unseen source of inspiration that sometimes seems to move through artists, musicians, writers, and mystics.An incredible episode... Drop in!www.angelmillar.comAngel Millar Bio:Angel Millar is the author of The Three Stages of Initiatic Spirituality, The Path of the Warrior-Mystic, and Transcend the Chaos, among other books. He began studying magic and trance (or “Gnosis”) in his veryearly manhood, and was briefly involved with neopaganism in Kent, England, before being initiated into the Illuminates of Thanateros, in London, in 1990. In 2001, after moving to New York City, he was initiated into Freemasonry. he was later made a Fellow of the Philalethes Society for Masonic research (which limits the number of Fellows to forty, globally) and became the editor-in-chief for the Masonic magazine Fraternal Review. He is also a National Guild of Hypnotists-certified consulting hypnotist. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

If you don't know the story, read on. ‘Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' is a fourteenth century poem that survives in a single manuscript. The story begins in King Arthur's court at Christmas when a huge green knight on a huge green horse rides into the court and challenges everyone to a game. He will stand one blow of his own axe as long as he can return the blow in a years' time.No one at the court wants to take him on, but as Arthur finally gets up the young Gawain gets in first. He effortlessly decapitates the Green Knight who then gets up, picks up his head, remounts his horse and says ‘see you in a years' time'.The rest of the story tells how Gawain is tested and discovers the limits of his idealism. He bravely sets out to keep his word, is undaunted by the physical hardships of a terrible journey, and finally arrives at a castle where his host tells him the place he seeks is just a few hours away, so why doesn't he stay for three days. The host then proposes a game. He will go hunting each day and give Gawain whatever he kills, and Gawain will give him whatever he gains during the day.For the first two days the host's wife visits Gawain in his bedroom. His morality tested, Gawain gently rejects her advances, and she gives him a kiss. Each day the host returns, gives Gawain what he hunted, and Gawain gives him the kiss. On the third day the Lady gives him a Green Girdle which she says will protect him against the Green Knight. Gawain does not give this to the host.He rides out to the Green Knight's ‘chapel'. Twice the Green Knight goes to strike and twice Gawain flinches. The third time he strikes, but only nicks his neck.When Gawain returns to Arthur's court he is mortified. He failed the final test and tried to cheat. He wears the green girdle as a badge of his shame. But everyone in the court thinks this is daft, and starts to wear green girdles as well.The story opens the debate. Gawain is true to his code, but as a human being he has tried to avoid death. Should he feel ashamed? Or are the people in the court right?

Listen to separate the three layers of an arc -- does the character change? How do they feel about it? And how is the audience positioned to feel about it? Stu, Chas and Mel finally begin their long-awaited journey into CHARACTER ARCS. In this "primer" episode, we try find some learnings and analytical lenses that we can then apply in future breakdowns. In this episode, we explore differences between a character learning something and a character fundamentally changing, how to dramatise that, and how the show teaches the audience to perceive that transformation (whether positively or negatively). Throughout the discussion, we skate over A NEW HOPE, BLUE MOON, BREAKING BAD, BETTER CALL SAUL, the French real-time thriller FULL TIME, A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS, THE GREEN KNIGHT, ALL OF US STRANGERS, PREDATOR BADLANDS, FIELD OF DREAMS, MEG 2, and Stu's receding hairline. Ultimately, this discussion synthesises into a series of questions to ask of a story and the main point-of-view character living through that story: Does the audience enter the story with an expectation that characters will change? How does the story teach the audience to expect characters to change or not? Do the characters change? Is it experiential change or internal value change? How is that dramatised? Is the character aware that they changed? How do they feel about that change? Does that matter? How does the story want the audience to feel about that change? If different to the character's perception, how does the story pull that off? How does the story world punish or reward the change? What are the values explored by the arc? How does this relate to the theme? How is contrast vs affinity/unity portrayed through the characters' journey? Order vs disorder vs inertia What is the emotional event created between the character and audience as a result of the journey? Does the character end up more intimate or distant from the audience? In upcoming episodes, we intend to apply these lenses to stories with STEADFAST/RESILIENT arcs, POSITIVE arcs, NEGATIVE arcs and - potentially - a “WTF is this?!” arc.

In this episode of Words That Burn, the poetry podcast dedicated to literary analysis and poetic interpretation, I sit down with Belfast poet Matthew Rice to discuss his new collection Plastic: a book-length poem mapped across a single night shift in an invented plastics factory. It's published by Fitzcarraldo Editions.Born from his PhD at the Seamus Heaney Centre, Queen's University Belfast, Plastic sits at a rare intersection in contemporary poetry: a deeply personal account of fifteen years working factory floors, fused with literary devices and techniques drawn from medieval romance, Gothic literature, and pop culture.We discuss the historical context behind the collection, tracing Rice's place within a tradition of working-class and "factory poets" like Philip Levine and Larry Levis, and explore how Sir Gawain and the Green Knight becomes a recurring avatar for the speaker's own quest through the night.This conversation doubles as a poetry education in itself, perfect whether you're new to contemporary poetry or already fluent in poetic analysis.We chat about:How timestamps and form mirror the malleability of plastic itselfThe Gothic undercurrents running through a hyper-modern, industrial settingLiterary allusion: from Wolverine comics to Kubrick's Gotham to Fassbender's Prometheus, and how pop culture deepens poetic meaningThe poet biography behind the book: Rice's journey from factory worker to MA and PhD in poetryA live reading of two poems from the collection, including the recurring Gawain sequenceWhether you're after rigorous poem discussion, a beginner-friendly entry point into poetry interpretation, or simply want to hear from one of the most original voices in Irish poetry and Global poets writing today, this episode of this poetry podcast offers a rich, accessible deep-dive into a genuinely singular collection.Follow Matthew Rice:On InstagramBuy His CollectionFollow the Podcast:Read the Interview on SubstackFollow the Podcast On InstagramFollow the Podcast on X/TwitterFollow the Podcast on TiktokFollow the podcast on BlueskyTime Stamps:00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro00:40 Inside the Book Plastic02:17 Factory Poetry Gap03:40 Molds and Poetic Form06:05 Long Poem in Sections07:38 Poetry as Escape11:23 Dream Time and Imagination12:34 Mapping Time on Shift16:19 Gawain on the Factory Floor19:47 Reading a Gawain Poem21:00 Reviews and New Meanings22:55 Pop Culture Allusions24:14 Fosse One Sentence Novel25:05 Wolverine And Prometheus27:37 Factory As Monster29:31 Kubrick City Character31:28 Flesh Meets Machine36:01 Gothic Hauntings And Swift38:12 Gotham Politics And Capital42:12 Prologue Ritual And Verbing45:54 Hidden Easter Egg Poem47:44 Final Thoughts And Thanks Hosted on Acast.

"Rest your bones, my brave little knight." Eric is joined by George Brignoni to unpack The Green Knight. The reimagining of the Arthurian legend, serves as a haunting meditation on honor, humility, and divine mercy revealing that true greatness isn't in grand acts, but in the quiet virtues. Discover why this visually stunning masterpiece is more than just an atmospheric epic; it's a theological mirror showing us the peril of false piety, the power of mercy, and the true meaning of heroism.

The movies are back, or so they say. But what makes a good medieval movie? Historical accuracy? Satisfying storytelling? The quality of the tassels? To find out, Aran, Olivia and Joe Mason reviewed five movies. Some of them were good, some of them were interesting, and some of them were Braveheart.Films reviewed:Braveheart (1995)The Northman (2022)The Green Knight (2021)The Kingdom of Heaven (2005)A Knight's Tale (2001)Join the Weird Medieval Guys Discord community: https://discord.gg/S36vz4jD98

"So we're doing this, right?" The new film from David Lowery, the director of The Green Knight, is not a love story, it's not a ghost story, and a lot of people aren't sure what it is at all. We know it's definitely about a very Gaga-esque pop star played by Anne Hathaway trying to heal the wounds of the past with her estranged dress designer (Michaela Coel), and we know it's got a storming FKA Twigs cameo which qualifies it for this show. But what lies beyond these facts?Join Graham and Robyn as they look at the many musical and cinematic inspirations Lowery and Hathaway took - from Persona to Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour! - and discuss the film's soundtrack cuts from Charli XCX, Jack Antonoff and Twigs herself. We also talk about the responses we had to the film - both emotional and stigmatic - talk about Charli's busy year at the movies, and relitigate the eternal question of whether Jack Antonoff is actually a good producer or not. Plus a bit of Billie Eilish concert film talk, if that's your bag.If you don't want to see us doing mildly lewd Gievenchy adverts for money, you can donate to our Patreon where you'll get Graham's new culture podcast The Arts Hole, plus Rob's franchise run-down They'll Love Us When We're Dead, weekly written articles about Doctor Who and The Twilight Zone, and more.

Together, they unpack the film's rich symbolism, eerie atmosphere, and surprisingly human portrayal of knighthood in the Middle Ages.From Dev Patel's unforgettable performance as Gawain to the mythology surrounding King Arthur, the conversation explores how medieval people understood honor, courage, religion, violence, and destiny. Jason and Matt discuss the real history behind Arthurian legends, the meaning of chivalry, the role of Christianity and folklore in medieval Europe, and why The Green Knight may be one of the most honest medieval films ever made.Along the way, they tackle medieval masculinity, race in the medieval world, storytelling traditions, and the enduring power of myth in modern culture. Plus: bourbon, bad decisions, Monty Python, and why every historian secretly wants to talk about talking foxes and giants.If you love medieval history, Arthurian lore, fantasy films, mythology, or thoughtful movie analysis, this episode is for you.Topics Include:The Green Knight explained  King Arthur and the origins of Arthurian legend  Medieval masculinity and chivalry  Dev Patel as Gawain  Religion and magic in the Middle Ages  Medieval storytelling and folklore  Race and diversity in medieval Europe  Why The Green Knight feels so different from other medieval films  The real meaning of honor and oathkeeping

Mother Mary is the new film from David Lowery, director of A Ghost Story, The Green Knight, and Pete's Dragon.

Sean and Amanda are joined by our music biopic correspondent, Yasi Salek, to unpack their complicated feelings on the highly anticipated musical biopic ‘Michael.' Before diving into the movie, they quickly cover some movie news: most importantly, the ‘Miami Vice' reboot getting a new title and a release date (1:51). Then, they break down all of the good, the bad, and the ugly with ‘Michael' and highlight why the re-creation of Michael Jackson's music feels deeply special but is ultimately inside of something hollow and uninteresting (10:31). Next, they discuss David Lowery's new gothic fantasia musical, ‘Mother Mary,' starring Anne Hathaway, which they praise for its beautiful filmmaking and nuanced and complicated portrayal of relationships, creativity, and fame (55:14). Finally, Lowery joins the show and explains why casting Hathaway and Michaela Coel was crucial to the movie's success, how ‘The Green Knight' helped him realize he wanted to work on something smaller in scale, and why making the movie felt like a supernatural experience (1:10:10).

Back in 2021 I proclaimed in my review of The Green Knight that writer-director David Lowery was "the great American director of his generation;" a statement that holds even stronger weight given the rising talent behind the camera in modern filmmaking. With his latest film, Mother Mary, Lowery gives this writer enough ammunition to back up that proclamation as he's created yet another bold, poppy, hypnotic drama that could only come from the mind of a special, singular talent; a master of the artform. Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin as the eldest of nine children, Lowery and his family moved to Texas in his youth, and where he and his family still reside today. His curiosity for film sprung at a young age, with the director making his first short when he was nineteen years old, and from there on, a slew of independent narrative feature films that included Deadroom, It Was Great, But I Was Ready to Come Home, and St. Nick. His breakthrough came within a two-year span, with his short film Pioneer winning the Competition and Grand Jury Award at the South by Southwest Film Festival, which lead to the release of his 2013 romantic crime drama, Ain't Them Bodies Saints, which was nominated for the Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize and garnered a Best Feature nominated at the Gotham Awards that same year. Those two projects were a springboard for Lowery into the public consciousness, as he was given bigger opportunities to explore his complex themes of humanity that lies at the core of his filmography. In 2016, he delivered the best Disney live-action adaptation yet with version of Pete's Dragon, followed up the next year the smaller, intimate yet profound meditation of the loss of someone and letting go as we enter the afterlife with A Ghost Story, and finishing this incredible three year run in 2018 with The Old Man and the Gun, a warm crime drama based on a true story that not only serves as an entertaining piece of throwback cinema, but an owe to one of the greatest actors of all time and the star of the film, Robert Redford. As we swung into the 2020s, Lowery gave us the aforementioned The Green Knight, a film I hailed as "a medieval masterpiece," and is, in my mind, one of the best films of the decade so far. He returned to Disney with a reimagining of the classic Peter Pan story with Peter Pan and Wendy, a film that may not be as successful as Pete's Dragon but it was a project Lowery found a sense of change within himself, and as he states in this interview for The Film Stage, he discovered the right amount of "courage and conviction" needed to make his latest, Mother Mary. In her review, our own Sophia Ciminello praised Lowery's film as "a beguiling, religious experience that will only get richer with the passage of time," as well as stated that just like Lowery's other standout work, "Mother Mary is about the ephemeral and the eternal, yet in an entirely new package for the filmmaker," it's another standout achievement from this visionary artist.  In a recent in-person conversation, the Mother Mary writer-director and I discussed about his origins to the project, being a massive fan of pop music, crafting this world with the film's production designer Francesca Di Mottola, as well as his work in helping the edit of the film. We also spoke about his collaborations with FKA twigs, Charli XCX, and Jack Antonoff on producing the original music in Mother Mary, molding his lead characters with his lead actresses Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel, and his thoughts on the state of independent cinema and the role he sees himself in it as the industry is in a constant state of change. This wasn't the first time the director and I met, as we first spoke at the 2024 Telluride Film Festival, where we not only share a geek out moment of being in a three-person conversation with director Alfonso Cuarón, but it was the first weekend where Lowery has seen all of the footage of Mother Mary together as one cut. At the top of the conversation lies our reunion, as well as a look into his influences on the program, ranging from The Red Shoes to Taylor Swift concerts. Only someone as special as Lowery could take the wide ranging scope of this world and make it come to life, thus continuing to be a singular talent in a time where artistic expression and creativity is vastly need.

This week we are discussing Tim Burton's 1988 classic, Beetlejuice! Listen as we breakdown this hilarious take on the afterlife, but be warned…we say his name a lot. Enjoy!

This week, Matthew Sargent is back to talk about 2021's dark fantasy tale, The Green Knight. It's an adaptation of the poem of Sir Gawain and The Green Knight, written and direted by David Lowery. It stars Dev Patel as Gawain, with Alicia Vikander in dual roles, Joel Edgerton, and Ralph Ineson. So, is this a visual feast, or pretentious and overly confusing?

QR codes on billboards. That's how this started. Just a simple “Free Burrito” sign in Chicago and suddenly we're debating whether scanning it while driving is basically vehicular manslaughter with salsa.Today's daily comedy show kicks off with the crew breaking down whether QR codes on billboards should be banned, if “free” really means free, and why Moon now thinks every QR code is secretly a hacker in disguise. (Airport menus? Stressful. Free weed stickers? Suspicious. Free burritos? Risky but delicious.)From there, things escalate — as they always do — into romantic red flags vs. grand gestures. Is buying an expensive gift early in a relationship sweet… or a cry for help? Is a “Good Morning ❤️” text every single day cute… or suffocating? And if someone writes you a love song after two dates, do you marry them or file a restraining order?Then it gets dangerous.The Celebrity Crush Test. Ladies, we see you. Fellas, it's a trap. The crew breaks down why asking “Who's hotter, me or Brad Pitt?” is the relationship equivalent of stepping on a rake on purpose. We debate safe answers, gay-crush loopholes, and why naming someone who's been dead for 40 years might be your safest bet.And because this is a professional operation (it is not), we somehow spiral into discovering cardiophilia — yes, a heartbeat fetish — courtesy of Tumblr's chaotic history. You're welcome.As if that's not enough, single women in New York are apparently ditching dating apps and heading straight to Medieval Times to flirt with knights in shining armor. Is this genius? Is it desperate? Is King Scott about to become the Green Knight of Wentzville? All valid questions.This episode of The Rizzuto Show is everything you expect from a daily comedy show: sarcastic humor, relationship chaos, weird news, questionable life advice, and just enough pop culture commentary to keep it educational-ish.If you've ever:Fallen for a “free” offer that wasn't really freeSent a too-thirsty textBeen caught in a celebrity crush trapOr considered jousting as a dating strategy…then congratulations.

The discussion unpacks the film's themes of honor, mortality, and self-discovery, while debating whether its slow, dreamlike pacing enhances or hinders the experience. It's a reflective episode that invites listeners to reconsider what bravery and heroism truly mean in one of modern cinema's most intriguing Arthurian adaptations.   Music: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want Create your podcast today! #madeonzencastr

But there is an option for those who don't want to buy CDs and for those who want a better alternative for the environment. It's the Album Pin. Album Pins are lapel pins themed to a particular album.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 25, 2025 is: noel • noh-EL • noun When capitalized, Noel refers to Christmas or the Christmas season. Uncapitalized, noel refers to a Christmas carol. // We were greeted at the door by a group of carolers singing noels. // Every year we send our family Christmas cards with our photo enclosed wishing everyone a joyous Noel. See the entry > Examples: “The meeting began with a touch of holiday spirit as members of the Woodland Park High School Madrigals sang three selections. The first was a Noel song with a medieval/renaissance feel that was well matched to their festive costumes. They followed with the popular ‘Carol of the Bells' and ‘We Wish You a Merry Christmas.'” — Doug Fitzgerald, The Pikes Peak (Colorado) Courier, 9 Dec. 2024 Did you know? English speakers borrowed noel from the French word noël, which is also used for both the Christmas holiday and a Christmas carol. It can be traced further back to the Latin word natalis, which can mean “birthday” as a noun or “of or relating to birth” as an adjective. (The English adjective natal has the same meaning and is also an offspring of natalis.) Noels were being sung in Latin and French for centuries before English-speakers started using the word to refer to Christmas carols in the 18th century. An early use of noel (spelled Nowel) to mean “Christmas” can be found in the text of the late 14th-century Arthurian legend Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
