In 1895, Henry James suffered through a terrible failure, as his play Guy Domville was greeted by hoots, jeers, and tomatoes being thrown at the play's author. James responded by starting work on his masterpiece The Turn of the Screw, which tells the story of a governess and the demonic forces haunting her and the children in her care. In this episode, Jacke talks to playwright and screenwriter Morgan Lloyd Malcolm about her new adaptation of The Turn of the Screw, which has its world premiere at London's Arcola Theater in September. PLUS eighteenth-century expert David Womersley (Thinking Through Shakespeare, Gulliver's Travels: The Cambridge Anniversary Edition) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! Kaiju author Neil Riebe returns to discuss the one Ultraman film he likes: Ultraman Gaia: The Battle in Hyperspace. This entry in the Ultra Series is unique in that it's a TV series tie-in that's arguably a standalone feature. Not only that, it's a surprisingly deep and dark meta story set in the "real world," and the protagonists are actually kids who aren't "Kennys." What a shock! It's a monkey's paw tale that examines the fallibility of human nature to boot! Plus, the main kaiju, King of Mons, is one of the most epic creatures in the Ultra Series. Since the film references Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, the Toku Topic is multiverse theory, a concept the movie introduces to the franchise.

Episode #636: How Not to Scale: Why Revenue, Ego and Hustle Can Destroy Your Business - with Gulliver Burns

ScaleUpRadio's podcast

What happens when you build multiple multi-million-pound businesses... but almost lose yourself in the process? In this episode of ScaleUp Radio, Kevin Brent is joined by entrepreneur Gulliver Burns, who has experienced both extraordinary growth and devastating setbacks. From building a call centre with over 200 employees before the age of 25 to creating a multi-million-pound automotive business, Gulliver has learned the hard way that scaling without strong foundations comes at a significant cost. Rather than another success story, this conversation is a refreshing look at how not to scale a business. Gulliver shares why chasing revenue instead of profit, tying your identity to your business and growing without financial discipline can ultimately lead to burnout, poor decisions and unnecessary risk. The discussion also explores leadership, developing people, creating resilient systems and why the greatest investment a founder can make is often in themselves. One standout message "Revenue is vanity. Profit, cash flow and freedom are what actually allow a business to scale sustainably."   In this episode you'll discover Why rapid growth without financial foundations often creates bigger problems instead of bigger businesses. The dangerous trap of measuring success by turnover, employee numbers and external recognition. Why every founder should build cash reserves before chasing further growth. How paying yourself properly creates long-term wealth rather than simply owning an expensive job. The importance of separating your personal identity from your business. Why emotional decisions cost founders millions. How to create a team that genuinely believes in the vision. Practical leadership techniques for motivating people every day. Why every conversation with a team member is an opportunity for coaching and development. How simple daily systems create consistency even in high-pressure sales environments. The importance of building leaders who can run the business without constant founder involvement.   About Gulliver Burns Gulliver Burns is an entrepreneur, business mentor and speaker who has built and exited multiple seven-figure businesses. His entrepreneurial journey has included building one of Australia's largest telecommunications call centres before creating a highly successful automotive business through innovative digital marketing. Today he openly shares both the successes and failures from those experiences, helping founders avoid the common mistakes of scaling too quickly, neglecting financial fundamentals and allowing business success to define personal identity.   Key Takeaways ✅ Slow down before you speed up. Scaling weak systems simply magnifies existing problems. ✅ Revenue doesn't equal success. Profit, cash flow and financial resilience are the real scorecard. ✅ Pay yourself properly. Your business should create personal wealth, not just impressive turnover. ✅ Build cash reserves. Financial buffers give founders choices during difficult periods. ✅ Don't let your business become your identity. Objective decisions become much easier when your self-worth isn't attached to business performance. ✅ Leadership is development. Every interaction with your team should help someone become better. ✅ Great businesses run on systems. Consistency, accountability and strong leaders create sustainable performance.   The one key thing... Don't build a business that looks successful. Build one that actually creates freedom.   G90 Summit Most founders I speak to feel busy but stuck; plenty happening, but not always clear on what genuinely matters most this quarter. If that's you, the G90 Summit is worth a look. A structured half-day where we work through everything competing for your attention, get clear on the three to five things that must happen in the next 90 days, then commit to them and build the system to make sure they actually happen.

What does it really take to build a successful business without external investment?Many founders are told that the route to growth is to raise funding, specialise in a niche, standardise everything and scale as quickly as possible. But what if there was another way?In this episode of The Fractional CFO Show, Adam Cooper is joined by Gulliver Moore, Founder and CEO of Sunday Treat, a creative content agency that has grown organically into a multi-million-pound business working with some of the world's best-known brands, including Google, Disney, Canon, Revolut and Candy Crush.Over the last five years, Sunday Treat has expanded from a one-person operation into a team of fourteen, all without taking external investment and while deliberately ignoring much of the conventional advice given to agency founders.Instead of focusing on aggressive scaling, Gulliver explains why they've prioritised building a financially sustainable business, maintaining a strong company culture, protecting creativity and making commercial decisions that support long-term growth.This is an honest conversation about what building a modern agency really looks like behind the scenes.Rather than talking about overnight success, we explore the realities of growing a business, managing uncertainty, improving leadership, forecasting revenue, maintaining healthy cash flow and building a company that founders genuinely enjoy running.In this episode we discuss: Growing a creative agency without raising external funding  Why cash flow is often more important than revenue growth  Building a profitable business while staying true to your values  The financial realities of running a project-based agency  Managing working capital and large client payment terms  Financial forecasting when future revenue is uncertain  Scaling from founder to CEO  Developing management and leadership skills  Creating a culture that attracts and retains talented people  Why Sunday Treat deliberately chose not to niche down  How variety can become a competitive advantage  Winning larger clients without following the traditional agency playbook  Expanding into the United States and establishing a presence in New York  Balancing creativity with commercial discipline  Managing risk while continuing to grow  Why sustainable growth often beats rapid growth One of the themes that runs throughout the conversation is the relationship between creative ambition and commercial discipline.Gulliver openly discusses how becoming responsible for employees completely changed the way he viewed leadership and business.Like many founders, he discovered that being technically brilliant at your craft doesn't automatically prepare you for managing people, having difficult conversations or building an organisation.He talks honestly about the mistakes he made early on, the management books that transformed his approach and why learning to become a better leader has arguably been just as important as winning new clients.For listeners interested in financial leadership, there are some particularly valuable insights into managing a business where revenue is inherently unpredictable.Unlike subscription businesses or companies operating on recurring revenue, Sunday Treat works largely on individual projects.That means forecasting income, managing utilisation, planning recruitment and protecting cash flow requires a very different approach.Gulliver explains how they think about financial planning, why maintaining a healthy cash buffer has been critical to their growth and how they approach larger client projects where payment terms can stretch well beyond the point at which suppliers and employees need paying.For founders, CEOs and business owners, it's a practical reminder that profitability and cash flow are not always the same thing—and that sustainable businesses are built through careful financial management as much as strong sales.The episode also explores one of the biggest debates in the agency world—whether businesses should niche down.Conventional wisdom suggests agencies should specialise in one industry or one type of customer.Sunday Treat deliberately chose not to.Instead, they work across multiple sectors and platforms, helping brands create content for everything from LinkedIn and TikTok through to television advertising and global campaigns.Gulliver explains why this approach has helped keep the team engaged, protected the business from changes within individual industries and ultimately created more opportunities for growth.Another fascinating part of the discussion focuses on international expansion.After seeing a significant proportion of revenue already coming from US clients, Sunday Treat recently established a formal presence in New York.Rather than treating expansion as simply opening another office, Gulliver shares the commercial realities behind entering a new market, including client acquisition, pricing, building relationships overseas and balancing growth with operational simplicity.Throughout the conversation, Gulliver offers a refreshingly honest perspective on what success looks like.Rather than chasing vanity metrics or headline growth numbers, he talks about building a business that is enjoyable to run, financially resilient and capable of creating exceptional work for clients while providing meaningful careers for the team.For anyone running a service business, creative agency, consultancy or founder-led company, there are practical lessons throughout this conversation around: Business growth  Financial management  Cash flow forecasting  Profitability  Leadership  Founder mindset  Scaling operations  Agency growth  Strategic decision making  Commercial finance  Business strategy  Team development  Company culture  International expansion As always, we finish with our Business Book Bonus, where Gulliver shares the books that have most influenced his leadership style, management approach and personal productivity—including Radical Candor, The Making of a Manager and Uptime.Whether you're a founder, CEO, agency owner, finance leader or someone interested in building a business for the long term, this episode is packed with practical insights and honest reflections from someone who's grown a successful business by doing things differently.About the GuestGulliver Moore is the Founder & CEO of Sunday Treat, an award-winning creative content agency helping global brands create engaging content across digital, social and broadcast channels.Since launching the business, Gulliver has grown Sunday Treat organically into a multi-million-pound agency working with brands including Google, Disney, Canon, Revolut and Candy Crush, while maintaining a strong focus on creativity, culture and sustainable business growth.The Fractional CFO Show is hosted by Adam Cooper, Founder of ACC Finance Solutions, and explores the commercial, financial and leadership decisions behind successful

Buon venerdì Stupefan! Un'altra settimana all'insegna delle notizie più stupefacenti al mondo e questo fine settimana vi deliziamo col secondo ramo del bivio che abbiamo imboccato lo scorso episodio: è il momento di parlare del drugs report 2026 stilato dall'EUDA uscito la scorsa settimana. Tanti sono già stati i commenti al testo - che troverete diligentemente annotati qui in fondo - ma ci sono degli aspetti lasciati scoperti di cui vorremmo discutere insieme a voi. Ci addentreremo nella ricerca chimica delle nuove sostanze psicoattive, nelle dinamiche dei fallimenti delle tabellazioni e nei nelle nuove dinamiche dei modelli di consumo per ragionare sulla reale provenienza dei fattori di rischio nel consumo. Eh sì, perché se la parola d'ordine del report dell'EUDA è "pericolo", dobbiamo però capire chi e che cosa ne creano i presupposti: se c'è un'emergenza di salute pubblica perché le sostanze e i modelli di consumo sono variati, perché non vengono adattati gli strumenti per tutelarla e si continua a criminalizzare il consumo e i consumatori? Ma prima di discutere tutto questo, avete presente "i viaggi di Gulliver"? Ebbene, potrebbe non essere tutto nato dalla mente di Swift, ma da un'allucinazione provocata da un fungo di cui non sappiamo granché, tranne che dà visioni riconducibili ad un pattern che ormai è noto agli ospedali di una zona della Cina come "Lilliputian hallucination".

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (6.8) Conway kicks off the hour with the latest on Primm casino resorts, as LV Petroleum emerges as a leading potential buyer and operator trying to save the properties before a possible July 4 shutdown. The desert drama continues as the Primm family looks for a new partner to keep the casino town alive. Then the news turns global and wild: a plane headed to pick up MLB legend Yadier Molina and his family crashes on its way to Texas, a massive 7.8 earthquake strikes the southern Philippines, and a rare 6.1 earthquake rattles off the coast of Cuba. The crew jumps into NBA Finals fever with Knicks vs. Spurs, Game 3, and the insane ticket prices surrounding New York’s run — from thousands just to get in the building to courtside seats going for hundreds of thousands. Later, Conway gets into new weight-loss drugs, changing body sizes, and how GLP-1s are creating chaos for retail returns as people keep swapping clothes while trying to find their new size. Plus, Bellio’s yacht wedding, Conway trying to escape a cruise, strange things spotted on walks, and one beard that was apparently a total turnoff. The hour wraps with the sad wave of Southern California restaurant closures, including memories of Gulliver’s in Newport Beach, as rising food costs, labor costs, regulations, and changing spending habits put pressure on longtime local favorites.

Vincent Message est un écrivain bien connu mais j'étais passé totalement à coté. Son dernier roman, La folie océan, plonge dans les entrailles d'une mer qu'on croit connaître et qu'on ignore presque totalement.Mais je me suis surtout intéressé à Vincent pour son roman Défaite des maîtres et possesseurs, dont le pitch m'a vraiment intéressé. imaginez un monde où une espèce supérieure traite les humains exactement comme nous traitons les animaux d'élevage c'est à dire des humains en ferme et domestiqués mais qui vont également à l'abattoir. C'est un miroir tendu vers nos propres comportements et ce qui m'a frappé chez Vincent, c'est sa capacité à porter des convictions profondes sur l'écologie et la cause animale tout en refusant absolument la caricature. Ses romans sont des espaces où la complexité du monde trouve une forme littéraire.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de la mécanique des bonnes histoires, de ce que ça fait à un auteur de se décentrer radicalement, de la dystopie devenue un genre mainstream parce que notre réalité l'est devenue, de la violence ordinaire au travail, de l'IA comme outil et comme menace silencieuse, et de cette question qui m'obsède : qu'est-ce qui nous donne encore envie du futur ?J'ai questionné Vincent sur son rapport à la joie, sur les limites planétaires, sur le biocentrisme comme seule réponse rationnelle à la crise, et sur ce que la fiction peut faire que l'essai ne fera jamais.Citations marquantes"C'est de notre vivant qu'on a franchi sept des neuf limites planétaires. C'est de notre vivant que la croissance de la population humaine se met à accentuer de façon dramatique la finitude des ressources.""On a fait de cette Terre, pour les animaux, un enfer permanent, quotidien, de leur naissance à leur mort.""La dystopie est devenue mainstream. Et ça en dit long sur la manière dont notre réalité elle-même est devenue dystopique dans ce laps de temps.""Chaque fois que tu demandes à une IA au lieu d'un ami, tu rates une occasion de renforcer ton bien-être émotionnel.""Ce à quoi il faut claquer la porte, c'est l'anthropocentrisme. Si nous n'agissons que dans les intérêts humains de court terme, des fractions les plus aisées de la population mondiale, on va vraiment droit dans le mur."Idées centrales discutées 1. Le décentrage comme outil éthique fondamental ~0:11:35 – 0:17:26 Dans Défaite des maîtres et possesseurs, Vincent inverse les rôles : une espèce supérieure domine les humains exactement comme nous dominons les animaux. Ce n'est pas un gimmick de SF. C'est une expérience de pensée héritée du XVIIIe siècle — le Huron chez Voltaire, Gulliver chez Swift — qui force le lecteur à voir ses propres comportements depuis l'extérieur. Se décentrer, c'est la condition pour remettre en question des systèmes qu'on ne questionne plus parce qu'on les habite.2. La dystopie est devenue mainstream parce que notre réalité l'est ~0:07:11 – 0:11:35 En 2016, l'éditeur de Vincent refusait le mot "dystopie" car personne ne comprenait ce que ça voulait dire. Dix ans plus tard, c'est une catégorie sur toutes les plateformes. Cette banalisation dit quelque chose de profond sur notre perception collective du futur : on fait face à plusieurs menaces existentielles simultanées — crise écologique, risque nucléaire, algorithmes — et la fiction dystopique en est devenue le langage naturel.3. La biomasse comme chiffre qui change tout ~0:25:13 – 0:26:22 60% de la biomasse des mammifères : animaux d'élevage. 35% : humains. 5% : mammifères sauvages. En quelques décennies, on a remplacé la faune sauvage par des animaux au service de notre alimentation. Et la masse anthropogénique (tout ce qu'on a construit) pèse désormais plus lourd que toute la biomasse du vivant. Deux chiffres qui décrivent une planète fondamentalement reconfigurée.4. La violence ordinaire est aussi réelle que la violence visible ~0:41:xx – 1:05:40 Vincent explore deux registres de violence : la violence physique et visible (l'abattoir, les animaux) et la violence insidieuse du quotidien professionnel (harcèlement managérial, perte de sens, spirale du burn-out). Les deux laissent des traces. Et les deux trouvent leur expression dans ses romans.5. L'IA : outil précieux et déshumanisation silencieuse ~0:56:06 – 1:01:34 Vincent distingue l'usage raisonné de l'IA (documentation, déblocage d'un premier draft) et ce qui l'inquiète : les IA présentées comme des "amis toujours disponibles". Chaque demande faite à une IA plutôt qu'à un ami rate une occasion de renforcer un lien humain. Sur fond de solitude croissante, c'est une forme de déshumanisation lente et consentie.6. La joie comme condition de l'action écologique ~1:10:53 – 1:13:01 La phrase de Deleuze — "le système nouveau triste, il faut être joyeux pour lui résister" — structure la vision de Vincent. Cette joie ne vient pas d'un optimisme naïf, mais de l'apprentissage, de la curiosité maintenue, de l'action collective. Comprendre la crise écologique, c'est aussi découvrir l'incroyable complexité du vivant. Et ça, c'est une source de joie réelle.7. Le biocentrisme : seul anthropocentrisme rationnel ~1:13:44 – 1:16:41 Accorder de la valeur aux forêts, aux océans, aux animaux, c'est juste en soi — ils ont un droit à exister. Mais c'est aussi la seule stratégie rationnelle pour garantir que des sociétés humaines survivent dans 500 ans. Le biocentrisme, même vu de façon cynique, est un anthropocentrisme de long terme.Questions posées dans l'interviewQu'est-ce qui t'a emmené à la littérature, alors que tu aurais pu emprunter une autre voie après Normal Sup ?Quels sont les meilleurs romans jamais écrits selon toi, et pourquoi ?C'est quoi les clés d'une bonne histoire — ce qui fait qu'on ne peut pas s'arrêter de lire ?La dystopie est devenue un genre mainstream.

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (5.27) LA residents are reaching their breaking point with aggressive street encounters after a Santa Monica man was arrested for allegedly threatening a couple with a baseball bat and chasing them with his dog. Meanwhile, New Yorkers may have a new reason to panic as a possible flour ban could put beloved bagels at risk. Plus, Timmy explains exactly why he’s officially over his phone.

Temas tratados na entrevista (em tópicos) Diferença entre “filosofia no direito” e “filosofia do direito”Defesa da ideia de que a filosofia não deve ser mero ornamento externo ao campo jurídico, mas condição de possibilidade para compreender conceitos, práticas e decisões jurídicas. A filosofia como modo de ser no mundoInfluência de Martin Heidegger: a filosofia aparece como forma de existência e de compreensão prévia do mundo, não apenas disciplina acadêmica. Linguagem, nomes e realidadeDebate sobre como se dão nome às coisas, relação entre palavras e mundo, usando referências como Crátilo e Vidas Secas. Crítica ao positivismo jurídico e ao cientificismoDiscussão sobre o século XIX, quando a filosofia teria sido afastada como “metafísica”, deixando o direito empobrecido teoricamente. Contradições filosóficas nas decisões judiciaisExemplo de juízes que invocam ao mesmo tempo “livre convencimento” (subjetivismo) e “verdade real” (objetivismo), misturando paradigmas incompatíveis. Crítica ao decisionismo judicial brasileiroRejeição da ideia de que “direito é aquilo que os tribunais dizem que é”, vista como destruição da autonomia do direito. Hermenêutica jurídica e limites da interpretaçãoDefesa de limites interpretativos contra arbitrariedades e superinterpretações. A interpretação jurídica deve ser constrangida por tradição, linguagem e institucionalidade. Conceito de “constrangimento epistemológico”Tese de Lenio Streck de que a doutrina e a teoria jurídica devem limitar interpretações arbitrárias e impor padrões racionais ao direito. Direito e literaturaA literatura como fonte privilegiada para compreender dilemas jurídicos e políticos. Exemplos usados: Orestéia, As Viagens de Gulliver, William Shakespeare. Superinterpretação e relativismoDiscussão do debate entre Umberto Eco e Richard Rorty sobre limites da interpretação e riscos do relativismo. Crítica à cultura digital e redes sociaisReflexão sobre banalização do conhecimento, culto à superficialidade e perda da vergonha pública na era das redes. Inteligência artificial e atalhos cognitivosPreocupação com IA como instrumento de simplificação excessiva, respostas prontas e fuga da angústia do pensamento. Hierarquia, autoridade e educaçãoDebate sobre a importância de hierarquias legítimas na formação intelectual e no aprendizado, contrapondo-se ao igualitarismo simplificador. Filosofia brasileira e reconhecimento de Ernildo SteinStreck aponta Ernildo Stein como o filósofo brasileiro que mais o impressionou. Filósofos preferidosDeclara preferência por Hans-Georg Gadamer, com forte referência também a Heidegger. Referências citadas na entrevista Filósofos / Teóricos Martin Heidegger Hans-Georg Gadamer Ernildo Stein Richard Rorty Umberto Eco Charles Sanders Peirce William James Ludwig Wittgenstein (implícito no tema linguagem privada) Søren Kierkegaard Gaston Bachelard Thomas Hobbes William of Ockham Marcílio de Pádua Dante Alighieri Obras literárias / Livros Crátilo Vidas Secas As Viagens de Gulliver Dom Casmurro O Nome da Rosa O Pêndulo de Foucault O Pato Selvagem A Festa da Insignificância A Brincadeira Autores literários William Shakespeare Jonathan Swift Graciliano Ramos Machado de Assis Henrik Ibsen Milan Kundera Obras de Lenio Streck mencionadas Dicionário de Hermenêutica Dicionário de Senso Comum Ensino Jurídico em Crise Robô Não Desce Escada Hermenêutica, Jurisdição e Decisão “Fatos, relatos e interpretações”.

Gulliver outlines how Local 2 is reaching students as early as age 17 to provide hands-on masonry fundamentals and clear pathways into registered apprenticeship programs. Key Insight: Why "bridge programs" and earlier recruitment are essential to combatting the skilled labor shortage while providing debt-free career stability.

Footnote 73 looks at animation's historical relationship to the body and how physicality was transcribed via the rotoscoping process as part of the construction of the earliest animated characters. From the Fleischer Studios pioneering the technology for use in their Out of the Inkwell series of shorts (1918–1927) and later feature films Gulliver's Travels (David Fleischer, 1939), and Mr. Bug Goes to Town (Dave Fleischer, 1941), through to Bob Sabiston's digital homage to rotoscoping when developing the Rotoshop tool during the 1990s, this episode has Chris take Alex through the mechanics of projecting performances onto glass to be traced by the animators to craft their animated performances. Topics include what the rotoscope contributed to animation's hyper-realist aesthetic and the specific desire for naturalism at Disney; rotoscoping's connection to both the Rotoshop and contemporary motion capture techniques; and how the rotoscope negotiates the uncanny, haunting presence of the human beneath the image. **Fantasy/Animation theme tune composed by Francisca Araujo** **As featured on Feedspot's 25 Best London Education Podcasts** **As featured on MillionPodcast's Best 10 UK Animation Podcasts and Best 60 Movie Podcasts in the UK**

To conclude our readings from the Blue Fairy Book, we warmly present the second part of a trilogy of episodes retelling 'A Voyage to Lilliput.Adapted from the first book of Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, in this one Gulliver goes to war, stealing fifty war ships in a single afternoon of swimming - but trouble soon starts to rear its head.Because Gulliver, unwilling to enslave the Blefuscudians, finds the Emperor of Lilliput now wants to blind him and starve him to death...If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

To conclude our readings from the Blue Fairy Book, we warmly present the second part of a trilogy of episodes retelling 'A Voyage to Lilliput.Adapted from the first book of Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, in this one Gulliver is searched and measured by servants of the Lilliputian Emperor, all before it is concluded that he may do this strange nation service.Specifically, as a war machine in Lilliput's battles against the 'Big-Endians' of Blefuscu...If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.
