The future ain't what it used to be. Is nostalgia revitalizing or killing 21st-century culture? The concept of nostalgia has seeped into almost all aspects of modern-day media, none more so than horror culture and its borderlands of Hauntology, Folk Horror, and found footage film. From film and TV franchises building endlessly on past glories, to musicians whose work now spans decades, modern media borrows heavily from the past. Ghost of an Idea: Hauntology, Folk Horror, and the Spectre of Nostalgia examines the use and effect of nostalgia in the Horror and Hauntological realms. It asks why these genres hold such a fascination in popular culture, often inspiring devoted fanbases. From Candyman to The Blair Witch Project, and Dark Shadows to American Horror Story, are the folk horror and found footage phenomena significant artistic responses to political, social, and economic conditions, or simply an aesthetic rebranding of what has come before? How has nostalgia become linked to other concepts (psychogeography, residual haunting) to influence Hauntological music such as Boards of Canada, The Rowan Amber Mill, Hawksmoor, or The Caretaker? What can the 'urban wyrd' or faux horror footage tell us about our idealized past? And how will these cultures of nostalgia shape the future? Combining the author's analysis with first-hand accounts of fans and creators, this book offers a critical analysis of our cultural quest to recognize, resurrect, and lay to rest the ghosts of past and present, also summoning up those spectres that may haunt the future.

It has since expanded to 13 locations, including three outside the UK, and consistently been ranked one of the best steak restaurants in the world.

Hawksmoor was founded by friends Will Beckett and Huw Gott in 2006 and the pair now have 10 restaurants in the UK. From humble beginnings in a former Turkish restaurant in London, Hawksmoor generated sales of more than £90m in 2023 and is now expanding overseas.In this episode of Business Leader, Dougal Shaw looks at the story behind a culinary and business success. “People don't like being miserable," says Beckett. "One of the joys in life is spending time with people in restaurants."Beckett and Gott are childhood friends and lifelong foodies. Their parents also worked in the food business. In their mid-twenties the co-founders ran several London bars. These didn't take off, but it taught them valuable business lessons about hiring and venue location. They hit on a winning formula with Hawksmoor, realising that there was a gap in the market because steak meals were associated with French bistros or American-style diners: “In a country really famous for beef, there wasn't a British restaurant, that idea of Britishness made a difference."

Most likely each and every one of us has walked into a building or a structure which had the capacity to touch something inside of you in some ineffable way. For Millenia, cultures around the world have constructed buildings which have this ability to cut through aesthetics of their appearance and bestow upon those who look upon or enter inside, a sort of spiritual reverence. How does this happen and what sort of elements make up these structures? Helping us break ground on this curious topic is the author and scholar of esotericism, Peter Mark Adams!

"I was unsure how to find a way into the project until I found the bell sound - maybe from a tram or bus or something? - which worked really well as a simple rhythm as the bell pattern is quite syncopated and then the final 'beat' is a car door shutting. "It became quite hypnotic, so I decided to go with that feeling and try to capture an implied altered-state, hallucinogenic journey through the night market.  "I then started reading about Hypatia the ancient Alexandrian mathematician and philosopher who was murdered for her 'pagan' beliefs - with one theory suggesting this took place on the vernal equinox - and so I thought I would tie the two things together." Zanket El Setat night market, Alexandria reimagined by Hawksmoor. 

Welcome Sam and Imme. They're the co-founders of Botivo, the small batch aperitif inspired drink on a mission to put the craft and depth of flavour from the alcohol world into the non-alcohol space. Based in Hertfordshire, they use a combination of natural ingredients starting with an apple cider vinegar and wildflower honey base with botanicals of wormwood, rosemary, gentian and thyme with an orange zest flourish. The result: a herbal flavour profile with bitter and citrus notes and a long finish.  Like their drink, their origin story is one of natural encounters. Sam, the artisan, had been running his previous business The Rum Runner, creating drinks and cocktails for high-end weddings and events - even the highest wedding in the land. After receiving umpteen requests for a non-alcoholic cocktail and being dissatisfied with what was on offer he decided to make his own. Turns out it was pretty good with guests asking him to bottle it and buy it. Jump to a few years later, and Imme, self proclaimed hedonist had fallen in love with the drink - using it for both non-alc and alcoholic cocktails. At another wedding, the pair met, serendipitously, and as they say the rest was history.  With their first raise behind them, they've been flooding the bars, restaurants and independents of London making their way into the likes of Wholefoods, St John, River Café and Hawksmoor - brandishing their signature yellow branding and stand out illustration style up on shelfs and bars. And for me it's not just the branding that catches your eye but the taste and versatility of the drink that leaves a lasting memory. Having tried the majority of non-alcoholic options, it's one of the few I'd actually keep in my cupboard all year round.  In this episode we talk about the revival of craft, why every artisan needs a hedonist and why blurring the lines is tomorrow's tipple of choice. Enjoy.  

Listener discretion advised: This episode delves into the disturbing details of the Whitechapel murders of 1888, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Serialized from 1989 to 1996, Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's graphic novel From Hell was first released in a single volume in 1999, just as the world was groaning into the present century. This is an important detail, because according to the creators of this astounding work, the age then passing away could not be understood without reference to the gruesome murders, never solved, of five women in London's Whitechapel district, in the fall of 1888. In Alan Moore's occult imagination, the Ripper murders were more than another instance of human depravity: they constituted a magical operation intended to alter the course of history. The nature of this operation, and whether or not it was successful, is the focus of this episode, in which JF and Phil also explore the imaginal actuality of Victorian London and the strange nature of history and time.

The Spirit of Place Tim Gilmore is a prolific local history author who has written extensively about Jacksonville. As the writer and creator of www.jaxpsychogeo.com, a project that explores place and catalogs the Southern Gothic, he has told more than 700 stories of strange and historic locations in and around Jacksonville, Florida. He has also published 22 books. "Ever since UNF English Professor Alex Menocal introduced me to the concept of psychogeography years ago, I've been enthralled with it," Gilmore says. "It's a portmanteau word, the psychology of geography, [meaning] something like the spirit of place. It's where the name for my website, jaxpsychogeo, comes from." Gilmore seems equally fascinated with Jacksonville and its people. He is also the founder of JaxbyJax. A literary arts festival, now in its 10th year, JaxbyJax was built on the theme of “Jacksonville Writers Writing Jacksonville.” Few writers have written about Jacksonville more than Gilmore. He joined us last November to talk about his latest book, The Culture Wars of Warren Folks.  Tim Gilmore has written 22 books including Box Broken Open: The Architecture of Ted Pappas; Murder Capital: Eight Stories, 1890s-1980s; Channeling Anna Fletcher; Repossessions: Mass Shooting in Baymeadows; The Book of Isaiah: A Vision of the Founder of a City, illustrated by Shep Shepard; Devil in the Baptist Church: Bob Gray's Unholy Trinity; and The Mad Atlas of Virginia King. Four of the works he's written for the stage have been produced by Florida State College at Jacksonville DramaWorks and his writing has appeared in numerous publications both locally and nationally. JaxPsychoGeo has received mention in publications including The Miami Herald, The Washington Post and The New Yorker and was featured in the A24 book Florida! A Hyper-Local Guide to the Flora, Fauna and Fantasy of the Most Far-Out State in America. Gilmore teaches Literature and Writing at Florida State College at Jacksonville. He's received awards from FSCJ, the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville and Jacksonville City Council. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Florida. You can also read his twice-weekly newsletter, Tim Gilmore's deadpaper, at timgilmore.substack.com. Interviewer Shep Shepard is a professor of English at FSCJ's Nassau Center. He received his Ph.D. in English from the University of Florida and has worked as a full-time instructor at FSCJ for twenty years. In his spare time, he produces music under various monikers, edits fiction and nonfiction prose, creates digital art, and enjoys time with his wife Ana and their dogs Meka and Moxie.

I've assigned The Road to numerous classes over the years. Of all the McCarthy I've read, I most highly recommend The Road and two of his earlier novels: First, there's the 1973 novel Child of God, which somehow manages to be one of the most horrifying things I've ever read and one of the most beautiful. Few writers could achieve that strange incongruous feat, perhaps none better than McCarthy. Meanwhile, his 1979 novel Suttree paints as detailed a picture of down-and-out Knoxville, Tennessee, as Joyce ever painted of Dublin. It's perhaps the greatest American psychogeographical work. When I recently read John Oliver Killens' 1954 novel Youngblood, I couldn't believe I'd not read him already. This novel, alongside Harry Crews' newly reissued 1978 memoir A Childhood, has to be among the best writings ever to come out of Georgia. The two of them work like split-screen, a Black childhood and a white childhood, both so different and so similar. Both writers had ties to Jacksonville. Crews said mid-20th century Jax was the place poor Georgia farmers went when the crops failed. Various artists and writers have used psychogeography in different ways. I've returned time and again to my favorite such writings, which I can't recommend enough – novels like Peter Ackroyd's Chatterton and Hawksmoor and Toni Morrison's Beloved. On the face of it, Ackroyd and Morrison couldn't be more different, but they both explore how culture is haunted by history and how patterns of history present themselves as ghostly. Then there's Joseph Mitchell's Joe Gould's Secret, a nonfiction account of a homeless Greenwich Village icon who claimed to have written the longest book in the world. Tim Recommends: Other Jax Authors I'd be negligent if I didn't give a shout-out to our local literary community, which runs so much deeper and wider than most locals realize and includes works like Julie Delegal's Seen and Andres Rojas's Third Winter in Our Second Country and Johnny Masiulewicz's Happy Tapir zine series. I could name dozens of other writers I admire and their works, but as soon as I attempt a long list, I'll foolishly omit someone and lose a few nights' sleep. (I already see 15 or 20 people in my mind's eye whose names I didn't mention, but could have, just now.) Anyone who wants an extensive list of writers participating in the Jax community, just look at the archives for the last nine festivals at jaxbyjax.com. I'll just say this is the 10th year of JaxbyJax Literary Arts Festival, which my wife Jo Carlisle and I founded and then relinquished to the more capable hands of Darlyn and Brad Kuhn. --- Never miss an event!

Today, the Spotlight shines On James McKeown, the Bristol, UK-based artist who releases music under the name Hawksmoor. James first created Hawksmoor five years ago, inspired by the six 18th-century churches in London designed by architect Nicholas Hawksmoor. Described as ‘English Baroque' in style, these buildings are large, foreboding, and even Gothic in nature. Imagine the music inspired by such things, and you have Hawksmoor. Each Hawksmoor album features unique themes and inspirations that have been composed using a sonic palate of analog Moog instruments and electronic rhythms complimented with live bass and subtle, textural guitar elements.Hawksmoor's latest, their debut on Soul Jazz Records, Telepathic Heights, combines a love of German electronic music of the 1970s alongside British retro-futurism and hauntology — an aesthetic that evokes cultural memory of times past.Great record, great conversation.

Welcome to The Conduit's podcast series, Service Please. This series will be focusing on ethical and sustainable hospitality, engaging with a diverse range of industry experts and a variety of individuals across different sectors, disciplines, roles and levels. From supply chains to sourcing, waste management to wellbeing and welfare – what problems need tackling and what does the future of hospitality look like?

In 2021 they became the world's first carbon neutral steak restaurant group, and have a commitment to ensuring sourcing the best produce they can get hold of. Hawksmoor has set the group an ambitious net zero target of 2030 and has already moved the whole UK company to green energy. Ellie is passionate about the impact businesses can have on achieving global sustainability goals and has been blown away by how much progress is already being seen in the hospitality sector. Prior to working at Hawksmoor, Ellie led climate change at various NGOs for over a decade and continues to chair the board at addiction charity Foundation for Change. With her own company, The Greenish, Ellie also consults with a wide range of hospitality businesses supporting them to become greener.

Hey everyone,I was the perfect audience for my own podcast this week because Craig (my husband, in case you’re new) is going to be back and forth to NY over the next five months to edit his movie, and I’ll be visiting often, and — crisis! — I don’t know where to eat. Add to that the fact that people still ask me: “Hey, Adam, I’m going to New York soon, what are the hot new restaurants?” As if I know!Enter Ryan Sutton. Not only is he the James Beard award-winning chief food critic at Eater NY, he’s a born and bred New Yorker, who (like me) grew up on Long Island and is as passionate about his city as Billy Joel (who also, like us, is also from Long Island). In today’s pod, Ryan wakes me up to the modern Korean Renaissance happening in NYC — with restaurants like Atomix, Attaboy, Cote — and weighs in on the whole Eleven Madison Park scandal vis-a-vis their new vegan menu. Know someone going to NY soon? Send this their way!Then I bully him into giving me lists: what are the best old school spots that are still worth visiting? (The Clover Club is new to me.) What are the best new spots? (I’m curious about Hawksmoor.) Best pizza places? (Ryan weighs on on the hype surrounding Lucali and offers some alternatives.) WHAT’S THE BEST BEST BEST EVERYTHING?Well: no spoilers, but Ryan delivered. I just listened to it back and made a list with almost twenty places on it. I’ll have a lot of ground to cover when I go to visit Craig next month.Become a paid subscriber and get my bonus ten questions with Ryan Sutton tomorrow! (Including: most overrated NYC restaurant, go-to bagel order, and where he’d have his last NY meal.)Give it a listen and let us know your favorite NYC restaurants in. the comments.Happy listening!Your friend,Adam This is a public episode.
