  “Subscribe to free weekly news letter HUNGRY FRIDAY FEAST here”  Jeremy King doesn't just talk about restaurants — he talks about change, class, creativity, ego, instinct, death, literature, leadership, and why the best dining rooms become tiny theatres of human behaviour.In this conversation, the legendary restaurateur behind The Ivy, Le Caprice, The Wolseley, Arlington and now Simpson's in the Strand explains why “maintaining standards” is actually the road to bankruptcy, why great restaurants must constantly evolve, and why hospitality is really about love, generosity, observation and care.Jeremy and Dan explore everything from Mick Jagger and Bianca Jagger at Le Caprice, to Lucian Freud, A.A. Gill, Harold Pinter, Graham Norton, Apple, Kodak, IBM, The Beatles, New York brasseries, Parisian cafés, class in Britain, and why every great creative or political movement may have started in a restaurant.  This one is unforgettable.A conversation about restaurants, yes — but really about how to live, lead, notice, change, and leave the world slightly better than you found it.ON THE MENU:00:00:00 Intro00:03:03 Why Restaurants Must Always Change00:05:46 Why Leadership Is A Benign Dictatorship00:07:24 Maintaining Standards Leads To Bankruptcy00:13:47 Why Restaurants Get Defensive00:17:35 Why Enough Is Never Enough00:20:06 Why Altruism Still Matters00:22:13 When Jeremy Refuses A Booking00:26:06 The Silent Couple At Mirabelle00:32:08 Arlington, Soho And Restaurant Design00:35:55 Why Great Restaurants Are Egalitarian00:41:18 Why Money Ruins Taste00:43:49 What Makes The Best Restaurant?00:47:43 Why Restaurants Need Creative People00:49:43 How Le Caprice Changed Service00:55:19 Why Culture Hates Real Change00:59:49 Why Strong Opinions Win01:03:00 How To Prepare For Death01:05:14 Why Jeremy Has Regrets Every Day01:06:16 The Power Of Happy Problems01:08:30 Why Jeremy Finally Wrote A Book01:15:12 Why Restaurant Work Changes Young People01:18:31 How Shyness Became Jeremy's Advantage01:20:17 Can Dogs Sense Us Coming Home?01:24:11 Why We've Lost Our Instinct01:27:14 The Brain's Restaurant Memory Card01:33:09 Why Moneyball Thinking Kills Instinct01:35:12 How Jeremy Feels A Restaurant's Hum01:38:07 Why First Impressions Mislead Us01:41:18 Do All Movements Start In Restaurants?01:44:10 Why Creativity Needs Long Lunches01:48:48 Jeremy's Favourite Books And Writers01:55:31 How Meditation Helped With Lucian Freud01:58:21 How Literature Taught Jeremy Restaurants02:00:01 Jeremy King's Best Life Advice02:03:29 Ruthie Rogers' Eye Contact Lesson02:05:33 Why Questions Beat Statements02:07:33 How Mick Jagger Helped Le Caprice02:11:43 Why Jeremy Prefers Narrowcasting02:13:01 Jeremy King's Rules For Success ============================================== ♨️Still bloody HUNGRY?

Con motivo del centenario del nacimiento de Paco Rabal, recientemente recordado con un emotivo homenaje en la Academia de Cine, recuperamos este programa emitido originalmente el 17 de febrero de 2023.Francisco Rabal Valera llegó al mundo un día de la mujer, el 8 de marzo de 1926, entre minas y sobre el mar de Águilas (Murcia). Su vida fue la pasión por actuar, porque puso todo el corazón en conseguirlo y en llegar a lo más alto. Y ese empeño también le proporcionó una intensa vida de amistad y amor con muchas personas que le dejaron huella. Así le ocurrió con su compañera de vida, la actriz Asunción Balaguer, a la que conoció al incorporarse a la compañía Lope de Vega de José Tamayo y con la que muy pronto se uniría sentimentalmente para toda su vida. De esa unión nacieron sus dos hijos: Teresa y Benito.Rabal se crió en el coto minero murciano de la Cuesta de Gos, dentro de una familia de extracción social muy modesta. Gente de pocas letras, pero de muchas luces; especialmente su padre, Benito Rabal, un minero de bondad e inteligencia innatas. Su hermano mayor, Damián, además de proporcionarle sus primeros libros, fue su referencia ideológica, compañero de futuras juergas y hasta su representante artístico. De niño y adolescente probó como ayudante de alguacil, vendedor ambulante de chucherías y aprendiz de bombonero. Ya de joven, logró entrar de auxiliar electricista en los Estudios Chamartín. Hombre de suerte, estuvo en el lugar oportuno y en el momento preciso cuando el director Rafael Gil hizo una prueba de luz con él sustituyendo a Fernando Rey. Su cara, joven y atractiva, daba juego. Su voz rotunda, su simpatía arrolladora y su insistencia hicieron el resto. Y el resto son varios cientos de películas: de 'Reina santa' (1947), la primera con frase, a 'Divertimento' junto a Federico Luppi, ya en el año de su muerte, 2001. También son numerosísimas las obras de teatro. De 'La muerte de un viajante' o 'Julio César' en los años 50 a 'Viejos tiempos', de Harold Pinter, en 1974. Destaca Rabal entre los cientos de papeles que encarnó los de Juncal, de la serie televisiva homónima; Azarías, de 'Los santos inocentes'; y Goya maduro en 'Goya en Burdeos'.En este documental, con guion de Juan Ballesteros y diseño sonoro de Mayca Aguilera, participan familiares, amigos y compañeros; su hija, la también actriz Teresa Rabal, y Juan Ignacio García Garzón, autor de la biografía 'Paco Rabal. Aquí un amigo'. Del Archivo RTVE se rescatan voces como las del propio Francisco Rabal, junto a personas que marcaron su vida; entre otras, Dámaso Alonso, Rafael Gil, Luis Escobar y, por supuesto, Asunción Balaguer.Escuchar audio

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 188 - Nick Kazan - Writer In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with writer Nick Kazan (BICENTENNIAL MAN, MATILDA, DREAM LOVER). Nick has been writing professionally for decades, and we spend much of our conversation with him discussing what he finds to work and not work in a screenplay. Nick also shares his relationship to a script after it's entered production, and we discuss how changes made during production can enhance a scene. We also learn how he's balanced writing spec scripts with assignments, what his opinion of the three act structure is, what he needs to know before he begins writing, and when he recognizes his writing is working. Nick also shares how a Harold Pinter play inspired him to begin writing in the first place, and we learn how he's been chasing the experience of writing for the very first time ever since. Plus, Nick reveals why he didn't leverage his the reputation of his father (director Elia Kazan) to build his own career, and we ask Nick: "What makes a good writer?" - Recommended Viewing: SHAMPOO - This episode is sponsored by Aputure

Lady Antonia Fraser, noted writer of English history and biography, discusses her book, “The Six Wives of Henry VIII” with Probabilities hosts Richard Wolinsky and Richard A. Lupoff, recorded November 17,1992 while she was on tour in San Francisco. With the arrest of the former Prince Andrew, we can look back at other scandals in the history of England, such as the story of Henry the Eighth and his six wives, seen through the eyes of the great historian Antonia Fraser. Antonia Fraser, now age 93, is best known for her various biographies and non-fiction works, often focusing on women in history and on various members of the British crown. She is also the author of several mysteries featuring her amateur detective, Jemima Share, published between 1977 and 1995, followed by two omnibus collections. At present, there are 17 works of history, plus three memoirs, one of which, Must You Go: My Life with Harold Pinter, about her life married to the late playwright who died in 2008, was published in 2010. Antonia'Fraser's most recent book, Caroline Lamb: A Free Spirit, was published in 2023. Along with her discussion of English history, she also talks about her work as a mystery writer and her then most recent Jemima Shore novel, The Cavalier Case. The interview ends with a look at her next book, The Gunpowder Plot: Terror and Faith in 1605, which would be published in 1996.. She would return on tour for that book, and the second of two Probabilities/Cover to Cover interviews.   This interview was digitized, remastered and edited by Richard Wolinsky on February 20, 2026. An edited for time version aired in 1992, and the complete version has never seen the light of day until now.

Nicoletta Polla Mattiot"Il silenzio è rivoluzione"Ascoltare il suono segreto della vitaEinaudi Editorewww.einaudi.itNell'epoca del rumore onnipresente, riscoprire e coltivare il silenzio è un atto politico, una forma di resistenza: il punto di partenza per una nuova ecologia sociale ed esistenziale. Un libro emozionante, che ci insegna a sentire ciò che non fa rumore.Da sempre il silenzio inquieta. Evoca paura e disagio. È l'ultimo gesto, la fine. La nostra società – iperveloce, perennemente connessa – non tollera l'assenza, la rimuove. Viviamo, senza rendercene conto, in un sottofondo incessante di parole, distrazioni, stimoli. Il rumore, digitale e sociale, sta saturando ogni interstizio dell'esperienza. Parlare è la norma, tacere è sospetto. Eppure, nel flusso di sollecitazioni in cui siamo immersi, la vera rivoluzione è il silenzio, che non è una semplice assenza di suoni, ma un terreno fertile dove possono nascere il pensiero, la creatività, la consapevolezza e l'empatia. Attraverso un percorso che fonde autobiografia, arte, neuroscienze, spiritualità, filosofia e sociologia, questo libro è un appello a riabilitare il silenzio come risorsa vitale, non come vuoto da temere. Dalle pause nel rumore urbano alle camere anecoiche, fino alle strategie di marketing che trasformano la quiete in bene di lusso, ogni pagina ci invita a mettere il silenzio al centro delle nostre vite, e a rivendicarlo in quanto spazio politico e collettivo. Nicoletta Polla-Mattiot ci accompagna cosí in un viaggio rigenerante alla scoperta del silenzio come riserva di senso, che, senza moralismi né nostalgie, ci pone una domanda urgente: possiamo reimparare a tacere per capire meglio chi siamo e ciò che diciamo?Nicoletta Polla-Mattiot, giornalista, studia il silenzio come strumento di comunicazione dal 1988, con attività di ricerca e didattica. Sull'argomento ha scritto libri, articoli, saggi. Fra gli altri, Le funzioni comunicative del silenzio (1990), Harold Pinter, il teatro, il pubblico e il silenzio (2001), Il paradosso del silenzio (2009), Pause (2012), Esplorare il silenzio (2019) e Singolare femminile (2019). Nel 2010, ha fondato con Duccio Demetrio l'Accademia del Silenzio, scuola di pedagogia e comunicazione del silenzio. Dal 2019 insegna Silenzio e Comunicazione all'Università iulm (Facoltà di Comunicazione, Arti e Media). Per Einaudi ha pubblicato Il silenzio è rivoluzione.

Phil Hammond is an Emeritus Professor of Media and Communications in the School of Arts and Creative Industries at London South Bank University, who spent his career examining propaganda, especially in the UK. He edited a tome with Ed Herman (of the Chomsky-Herman propaganda model fame) on the reporting about the war in Kosovi and Metohija: Degraded Capability: The Media and the Kosovo Crisis , which included contributions by Harold Pinter, John Pilger and many other media critics. We spoke about what it was like being a media analyst in a highly moralistic reporting environment, and how propaganda changed in the past 25 years, including the reporting on Israel and Iran.

durée : 01:00:35 - Toute une vie - par : Matthieu Garrigou-Lagrange - Harold Pinter, Liv Ulmann, Nicola Pagett dans "C'était hier", Los Angeles 1985 © Baker street par Matthieu Garrigou Lagrange et Ghislaine David La lecture des pièces de Pinter est une expérience sensorielle. Elle nous fait ressentir ce fluide malsain qui lie entre eux les êtres, et qui est fait de pouvoir : Celui qu'on subit, celui qu'on fait peser sur l'autre. En mettant simplement en présence des personnages sans histoire propre, Pinter déploie, avec la puissance que n'aura jamais la démonstration théorique, une pensée philosophique. Le totalitarisme est pour lui partout, y compris et surtout dans nos sociétés dites démocratiques, et c'est ce qu'il a asséné une fois encore lors de la réception de son prix Nobel de littérature, en 2005. Pinter lui même n'était pas dénué d'ambigüité. Ne jouait-il pas de son pouvoir, lui aussi ? N'était-il pas colérique ? Prêt à faire le coup de poing ? Dans ce numéro d'Une vie, Une Oeuvre qui lui est consacré, nous tâcherons d'en apprendre plus l'homme tout autant que sur sa pensée. Nous donnerons aussi à entendre l'écriture « pinteresque » et apprendrons à écouter ses silences. **Avec ** Jean Rochefort, acteur Claude Régy, metteur en scène Brigitte Gauthier, universitaire, auteur de "Mettre en scène Pinter" éd.

Nobel Prize-winning dramatist Harold Pinter's London premiere of his debut, ‘The Birthday Play' was detested by most critics - on 19th May, 1958. Set in a mundane seaside boarding house, the play initially lures audiences in with a naturalistic facade, before plunging them into a perplexing, uncomfortable narrative. Critics lambasted the production for its nonsensical dialogue and lack of clarity; lines of attack which were not eased by Pinter's lifelong refusal to offer explanations. The sole exception was a positive review from The Sunday Times's Harold Hobson - but this was printed after the show had already been pulled. In this episode, The Retrospectors explain how Pinter's play nonetheless left a lasting impact on British theatre; reveal who ‘Betrayal' was REALLY about; and attempt to quantify the value of the Pinteresque pause...

Vintage Sand Episode 54: Director's Cut: Joseph Losey

Elegant. That was the adjective used by Team Vintage Sand's own Michael Edmund to describe why the films of Joseph Losey are so important to him, and why he has been such a huge fan of Losey's for nearly all of his film-going life. Losey's was a name that seemed to keep popping up in a wide variety of contexts over the course of the podcast, so, after many delays, we are proud to present Episode 54—Director's Cut: Joseph Losey. Losey's is a unique career in the sense that it really was two distinct careers. After growing up in a life of privilege in Wisconsin (where he was a high school classmate of another pretty good director, Nicholas Ray) and an education at Harvard and Dartmouth, Losey made his way to Hollywood and directed a couple of interesting, low-budget films. Among these were the stilted but prescient "The Boy with Green Hair" (1948), and the rather senseless remake of Lang's "M" (1951), the latter replete with awful soundtrack music and LA sunshine. One possible reason that Losey might have gotten involved with this misguided effort might have been to give actors (Luther Adler, Martin Gabel) and other creatives (screenwriter Waldo Salt), who had been or were about to be blacklisted, a shot at getting some work. Losey himself, an unapologetic member of the Communist Party and an important creative associate of Bertolt Brecht, knew that when Brecht was called before HUAC, it was only a matter of time before he would meet the same fate. So before he could be summoned, he fled to London, and never again worked in the United States for the remaining three decades of his life. He began his English period with some low budget films, some of which, like 1954's "The Sleeping Tiger", still hold some interest. It was during this period, however, that he met two men who were going to help him create the reputation that he still carries to this day, that of a director of great style whose films, not surprisingly given his own life experience, were always political without ever dealing directly with politics: the actor Dirk Bogarde, and the legendary playwright Harold Pinter. Their first work together, 1963's "The Servant", is generally regarded as Losey's masterpiece. It is an absolute evisceration of a rotting class system that has yet to realize its time has passed and that the empire on which it was founded has disintegrated. The complex, ever-changing relationship between upper class twit Tony (the wonderful James Fox) and Barrett, the manservant Tony hires (Bogarde), is cold, chilling and surprising right to the very end. Losey continued his obsession with social class in the World War I drama "King and Country" (1964), a film with a setup similar to "Paths of Glory" that in some ways is an even more powerful anti-war statement than Kubrick's film. Losey teamed up again, somewhat less successfully, with Pinter and Bogarde for 1967's "Accident", and with Pinter for one more masterpiece, 1971's "The Go-Between", a gorgeous period piece featuring pitch-perfect performances by Alan Bates, Margaret Leighton, newcomer Dominic Guard as the titular young man, and especially by the never-more-luminous Julie Christie. There are no easy answers when it comes to Losey, but two things come to mind. As John notes in the episode, had Losey not fled persecution and stayed in America, he probably would have been nothing more than a more-talented-than-average studio hack. Exile turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to him, and it may be a direct result of his outsider status that Losey was able to cast an even sharper eye on the follies and perils of the dying English class system more effectively even than the great native British directors of the 1960's. Whatever your thoughts on his work, in the end, it is that aforementioned elegance and intelligence that make Losey's best films worth watching today.

On this episode, we were joined by the iconic actor, writer, and filmmaker Richard Ayoade to discuss his latest comic novel, The Unfinished Harauld Hughes, a fictional accounting of his quest to canonise the most significant British playwright of the 20th century (who also happens to be entirely made up). Richard spoke to us about the figures that influenced the invention of Hughes–among them Harold Pinter and Orson Welles–and the ill-fated film Hughes authored, "O Bedlam, O Bedlam", which stopped the prolific playwright from ever writing again. He expressed scepticism about the myths and exaggerations that create "great lost works" and literary recluses and discussed why it is important to approach comic writing from the inside out rather than trying to make fun of your characters. For good measure, we also discuss his deep love of "Spinal Tap", Joan Didion, and the time he spent acting in Wes Anderson's "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar."

We bonded over swearing. And, although I'm not one to brag: Danny Dyer said it suits me. DANNY F***ING DYER! I mean. I know this is a podcast about failure, but surely that's a major life achievement? Anyway, I digress… Today's guest was born in East London and had a challenging childhood - his parents split when he was nine after his mother discovered Danny's father had a secret family. Acting was, in many ways, his escape from everyday life. He started in his teens, and was soon acting alongside luminaries such as Helen Mirren, Mark Rylance, Daniel Craig and Derek Jacobi. In his 20s, his mentor was the playwright Harold Pinter - someone Danny considers a father figure in his life, and who he has as the screensaver on his phone. We talk about what he learned from his drug addiction and his subsequent rehab, including one panic-inducing story about being on stage and forgetting his lines after spending the night before smoking crack in New York. It's an extraordinary tale of resilience and self-growth and I really appreciate Danny's honesty in telling it. We also talk about what psychics say to him, his concerns over his daughter becoming famous, his royal heritage and why he might have got the wrong dog.

Each episode we choose a single play to talk about in depth with our expert guest. We'll discuss the play's origins, its themes, characters, structure and impact. For us the play is the thing. When it premiered in London's West End in 1960, The Caretaker catapulted its author to fame and fortune. The play is set entirely in a single room in a dilapidated house, and presents the territorial battle between three men living on the margins of society. The pschological manoeuvrings of the men are dramatised in what we now recognise as Pinter's cryptic mix of comedy and menace, along with his characteristic relish in the precision and panache of language. As we record this episode a new production of the play is playing in the Minerva theatre in Chichester, and I am delighted to welcome its director, Justin Audibert, to the podcast to help us explore Pinter's enigmatic work.
