CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of death, knife fights, gunfire, murder, sexual misconduct, parental trauma, parental negliect, parental abuse. We weren't aware there was such a thing as being a method director, but this legendary film seems to have proven that's a thing. Because it's one thing to make a schlocky B-movie for teenagers about juvenile delinquents. It's another completely to try to reverse engineer that terrible movie into art for a budding movie star and enable his worst tendencies while also having an affair with his 16-year-old co-star, and his other co-star, and possibly him. This movie is a mess, which is actually being kind, because its director might be even more of a disaster. Somehow a bad movie with great acting gives us perhaps some of the greatest trivia of all time. We're deep in our angsty feels as we watch 1955's Rebel Without a Cause on Have a Good Movie!

The year was 1981 and the world of video games was about to get HORNY, but probably not the kind of horny you expect. Through the early '80s and mid '90s, one video game series was injecting both passion and stank into computers everywhere. That series was known as Leisure Suit Larry, and this is his story.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of murder, sex work. We've jumped ahead to 1945 to tackle the question of whether it's possible for a movie to have only one likeable character but still be compelling. The verdict - still unclear. This is a bizarre movie, down to the doctor who tries to save a dying young child trying to gain sympathy for having to drive all the way out to the house in the first place. Only one main character is likeable, and fortunately Joan Crawford is up to the task with the role. In fact, for a melodrama with more of a premise than a well-rounded plot and wildly uneven acting, Joan Crawford is the glue that holds all of this together. We're watching the Mother's Day classic, 1945's Mildred Pierce on Have a Good Movie! You can email us with feedback at macintoshandmaud@gmail.com, or you can connect with us on BlueSky!

Miguel Rasch Isla fue un destacado poeta colombiano, nacido en Barranquilla el 9 de febrero de 1887 y fallecido en Bogotá el 6 de octubre de 1953. Es reconocido como pionero de la literatura erótica en Colombia, gracias a sus poemas de tono dionisíaco que exploraban abiertamente temas de erotismo y sensualidad, lo que generó tanto admiración como controversia en su época. Su estilo audaz le valió el apodo de “el caballero del soneto” . Entre sus obras más destacadas se encuentran: A flor del alma (1911,) Para leer en la tarde (1921), Cuando las hojas caen (1923), La visión (1925), La manzana del Edén (1926), Púrpura y oro – Camafeos Taurinos (1944). Su obra La manzana del Edén, publicada en Europa durante su servicio diplomático en Alemania en 1940, fue especialmente polémica por su contenido erótico, siendo considerada escandalosa por algunos y atrevida por otros. A pesar de su relevancia en la literatura colombiana, a petición de sus descendientes, sus poemas no han sido reeditados oficialmente. Sin embargo, algunas de sus obras pueden encontrarse en línea, como en la colección de sonetos disponible en Internet Archive.
CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of racism, sexual assault, false imprisonment. We've got a new name, a new season, and a new series! First up, we talk about our name change with a tagline you may be familiar with. Then, we kick off a new series with a trip through ALL the decades - if the year ends in 5, we're watching a movie from it! We kick things off with a frothy, zippy, real humdinger of a musical with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers doing their thing. Remarkably, this movie is incredibly wholesome and unproblematic, its most offensive thing being a wacky Italian accent that angered Mussolini - in short, a net benefit.

This Day in Legal History: The Killing of Maximum JohnOn May 29, 1979, U.S. District Judge John H. Wood Jr. was assassinated outside his home in San Antonio, Texas. Nicknamed “Maximum John” for his reputation of handing down the harshest possible sentences in drug-related cases, Wood had become a prominent figure in the federal judiciary's war on narcotics. His assassination marked the first killing of a sitting federal judge in the 20th century, a grim milestone that shocked the legal community and raised urgent concerns about judicial security. The investigation into Wood's murder quickly became the most extensive and expensive federal inquiry of its time.Attention soon turned to Jamiel “Jimmy” Chagra, a wealthy drug trafficker facing trial before Judge Wood. Fearing a life sentence, Chagra orchestrated the murder by hiring Charles Harrelson, a known hitman and the father of actor Woody Harrelson. Harrelson was reportedly paid $250,000 for the job. Chagra's wife, Elizabeth, played a key role in facilitating communication between her husband and Harrelson, and was later convicted in connection with the plot. Authorities used wiretaps, surveillance, and confidential informants to build their case.Charles Harrelson was eventually convicted of murder and sentenced to two life terms, though he maintained his innocence for years. Jimmy Chagra was acquitted of the murder charge but later admitted his involvement in exchange for a lighter sentence in other cases. The killing of Judge Wood underscored the dangerous intersection of the judiciary and organized drug crime in the late 1970s. It prompted significant reforms in judicial security, including increased protection for judges handling high-risk cases. The case remains one of the most chilling examples of retaliation against a federal judge in American legal history.The Trump administration announced it is rescinding a 2022 Department of Labor (DOL) directive that had discouraged the inclusion of cryptocurrency options in 401(k) retirement plans. The original Biden-era guidance had urged employers to exercise "extreme care" when considering crypto investments for employee retirement accounts. It signaled a shift away from the legally required neutral stance of the DOL's Employee Benefits Security Administration. The 2022 policy had also threatened an investigative program targeting plan sponsors who offered cryptocurrency, either directly or through self-directed brokerage windows.This earlier approach significantly dampened growing interest in crypto within retirement planning, despite companies like Fidelity exploring such offerings. With the Biden guidance now repealed, the Trump administration hopes to renew momentum in this area. However, broader market enthusiasm for alternative investments in 401(k)s has lessened in recent years, making the potential impact of this policy shift uncertain.Trump Boosts Cryptocurrency in 401(k)s by Axing Biden GuidanceThe Trump administration instructed U.S. embassies and consulates to halt the scheduling of new student and exchange visitor visa appointments. This pause comes as the State Department, under Secretary of State Marco Rubio, prepares to implement expanded social media vetting for foreign applicants. According to an internal cable, appointments already scheduled will still be honored, but unfilled slots should be withdrawn. The administration is conducting a review of the screening processes for F, M, and J visa applicants, which is expected to result in new vetting procedures.This decision aligns with the administration's broader immigration agenda, which includes increased deportations and visa revocations. Critics argue that these actions infringe on free speech, particularly in cases where student visa holders have expressed pro-Palestinian views. A Turkish student from Tufts University, for example, was detained for weeks after co-authoring an article critical of Israel.Meanwhile, protests erupted at Harvard University, where students and faculty opposed both the visa freeze and the administration's recent move to revoke Harvard's ability to host international students—who make up about 27% of the student body. The government has accused Harvard of resisting policy reforms and challenged its global academic role.Trump administration halts scheduling of new student visa appointments | ReutersIn a great piece by Mike Masnick over at Techdirt, the spotlight falls on an unusual and troubling scenario at the U.S. Supreme Court: five Justices recused themselves from a single case, Baker v. Coates, because of overlapping financial ties to the same book publisher, Penguin RandomHouse. Four of the recused Justices—Sotomayor, Gorsuch, Barrett, and Jackson—have publishing deals with Penguin, which is a named plaintiff in the case. Alito also recused, though no reason was provided. While watchdogs like Fix the Court praised this as a rare display of ethical self-restraint, Masnick (to my mind, rightly) questions the broader implications.If recusals due to publishing ties become the norm, the Court may be unable to hear any case involving Penguin RandomHouse—a massive player in media litigation. The publisher is involved in major lawsuits, including ones against the Internet Archive and various state book bans, and could soon be in litigation involving AI training data. If too many Justices are conflicted out of hearing such cases, key legal battles may be effectively resolved by lower courts, potentially leading to inconsistent outcomes across jurisdictions.Masnick argues this is a symptom of deeper flaws in Supreme Court ethics. Justices have long accepted book deals, speaking fees, and gifts, often without disclosing or recusing appropriately. Now that some are finally acknowledging conflicts, the Court risks becoming dysfunctional. His provocative solution? Expand the Court to around 100 Justices who rotate in panels, limiting the influence of any one Justice and allowing recusals without impairing the Court's ability to function. Until systemic reform occurs, we're left with a Supreme Court that either ignores ethics or freezes itself into inaction—neither of which bodes well for public trust.When Half The Supreme Court Has Book Deals With The Same Publisher, Who Decides Its Cases? | Techdirt This is a public episode.

For this episode of In Bed with the Right, Adrian and Moira return to the year 1933. They continue the story of how Hitler seized power, what it did to society, what it felt like to live through it, and -- as always -- what role gender and sexuality played in events. Reminder: We're going month by month for these episodes. This second installment covers May 1 to May 31 -- the fate of trade unions, the nascent LGBT movement and the women's movement.Here are the books/texts we refer to in this episode: Timothy Mason, Nazism, Fascism and the Working Class (1995)Laurie Marhoefer, Sex and the Weimar Republic (2016)Richard J.

Gustav III:s statskupp den 19 augusti 1772 satte stopp för frihetstiden och mer än 50 år av ständervälde. Gustav III (1746-92) var en begåvad maktpolitiker som direkt efter sin faders död började planera för statskuppen med syftet att återinföra enväldet.När den planerade statskuppen höll på ett rinna Gustav III ur händerna tog konungen själv över ledningen av kuppen i Stockholm. Trots att Gustav III motiverade kuppen som en kamp mot adelsvälde var det i allra grad adelns privilegier som kungen försvarade.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Hugo Nordland historiker och författare som arbetar på en bok om Gustav III.Gustav III kallade sin statskupp för revolution. Kuppmännen som leddes av Gustav III personligen arresterade rådet. Sveriges första politiska partier, hattarna och mössorna, upplöstes. Detta satte punkt för de partistrider och den korruption som tidigare hade präglat svensk utrikes- och inrikespolitik. Kuppen stöddes av Frankrike med både pengar och direktiv.Under frihetstiden i mitten av 1700-talet radikaliserades politiken med fokus på ökade sociala rättigheter. När adelns privilegier utökades till rättigheter för hela folket skapades ett stort missnöjde bland adeln. Utan adelns missnöjde skulle inte Gustav III kunnat genomföra sin statskupp.Genom den nya regeringsformen från 1772 delades den politiska makten återigen mellan konungen och riksdagen. Samma år avskaffade Gustav III även tortyr som förhörsmetod, och tortyrkammaren Rosenkammaren stängdes för alltid. Gustav III genomdrev dessutom en inskränkt tryckfrihetsförordning 1774.Lyssna också på Svenska flottans historia: Vad Gustav III inte visste om öl.Musik: Gustavs skål av Carl Michael Bellman framförd av United.

I did really like the film and have to admit that perhaps I have been giving it a hard time. Perhaps because it gave me a hard time! There are moments of fun, flirtation and enjoyment but it is all within the backdrop of undeniable impending annihilation. I am definitely someone who prefers some depth and thematic discussion of the ethics of humanity in my science fiction (as well as some good old pew-pew led heroism) but I did find this film to be so very sad. Luckily I have two absolutely wonderful guests to keep me company and help me keep a stiff upper lip in the face of doom.

NEXT EPISODE! Next episode we will be discussing Teenagers from Outer Space (1959). It is a low budget indie film which seems to fit into the “bad film” category and so will not be for everyone! But I found it a relief full of lots of sci-fi tropes, funny parts, a coherent plot and likeable characters. The film is in the public domain. You can watch it on the Internet Archive website and there is also a weirdly colourised version of the film on YouTube where you can also find the Mystery Science Theatre 3000 episode on the film. I found that very funny too.
Libraries carry the past forward to the present and into the future. The knowledge and truth stored safely from the Library of Alexandria through to the likes of Wikipedia and The Internet Archive, and all libraries, are the creations of our minds and those looking to control the narratives of history are oft times fearful. It is not that long ago that the burning of books took over from the burning of witches. The concept of an open and acsessable library is an ancient democratic idea, and for the destruction of democracy access to knowledge and art must be curtailed.

Den 3 juli 1866 drabbade närmare 500 000 man trupper ur den preussiska armén samman med den österrikiska armén vid Köningsgrätz i nuvarande Tjeckien. Slaget var det största i Europa mellan Napoleonkrigen och första världskriget.Den preussiska 7.infanteridivisionen och 1.gardesinfanteridivisionen anföll och i princip krossade fyra österrikiska kårer i skogarna kring Shiepwald och Chlum. Det österrikiska nederlaget ledde direkt till fred och innebar att Preussen kunde bilda ett Nordtyskt förbund och ta ett stort steg mot ett enat Tyskland under Preussen.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om ett av den europeiska militärhistoriens mindre kända, men betydelsefulla krig.1864 hade Danmark besegrats genom en gemensam preussisk-österrikisk krigsinsats. Motsättningar om hur de nya områden Slesvig och Holstein skulle styras tillsammans med den grundläggande konkurrensen mellan de båda maktcentrumen i Berlin och Wien utmynnade i en direkt konflikt 1866. De nordtyska staterna anslöt på den preussiska sidan och de sydtyska staterna gjorde gemensam sak med Österrike.Den preussiska framgången berodde på den reformerade preussiska arméns slagkraft som ett resultat av skicklig ledning, taktiskt välövade trupper och nya beväpning. Den preussiska generalstabens chef Helmuth von Moltke hade inspirerad av militärteoretikern Clausewitz teori om kriget och infört nya principer för hur krigföringen skulle ledas. Fyra preussiska arméer rörde sig snabbt med järnväg mot den österrikiska huvudarmén. Österrikarna var på papperet numerärt överlägsna, men tvingades avdela en armé för att försvara sig mot ett italienskt anfall från söder. Den mångkulturella österrikiska arméns olika avdelningar var visserligen att betrakta som en yrkesarmé, men hade mycket varierande stridsvärde. Vid Königgrätz koncentrerade preussarna tre arméer och fångade den österrikiska huvudarmén under den uppgivne och passive befälhavaren Benedek.Preussarna hade underlägset artilleri, men ett nytt bakladdat tändnålsgevär som medgav en snabbare eldgivning än de äldre mynningsladdade österrikiska musköterna. De österrikiska kolonnanfallen i täta formeringar i rent napoleansk stil krossades av den intensiva preussiska eldgivningen. Trots att den österrikiska armén hann retirera i relativt god ordning valde kejsare Frans Josef att gå med på en fredsuppgörelse. Den preussiska rikskanslern Otto von Bismarck valde att så snabbt som möjligt få en fredsuppgörelse till stånd. Hans mål var inte att krossa eller förödmjuka Österrike och dess habsburgske kejsare. Han vill få fria händer att bilda ett nordtyskt förbund under ledning av Preussen. Nästa steg i enandet av Tyskland kom några år senare i samband med det Fransk-tyska kriget 1870-71. Lyssna också på Dansk-tyska kriget år 1864 – en dansk katastrof samt Fransk-tyska kriget år 1870-71 – krig som politiskt medel.Bild: Den preussiske kejsaren Wilhelm I, Bismarck och general Moltke observerar det största inringningsslaget i krigshistorien: Den 3 juli 1866 stod omkring 180 000 österrikare och 200 000 preussare mot varandra. Den preussiska arméns seger öppnade vägen för ett enande av imperiet under preussiskt ledarskap - utan Österrike.

Den 22 juni 1941 inledde Nazityskland en av de mest omfattande militära operationerna i historien: Operation Barbarossa. Med över tre miljoner soldater, tusentals stridsvagnar och flygplan korsade tyska trupper den sovjetiska gränsen, vilket öppnade östfronten under andra världskriget. Målet var att snabbt besegra Sovjetunionen och säkra "Lebensraum" – livsrum – för det tyska folket.Adolf Hitler drevs av en kombination av ideologiska och strategiska motiv. Han betraktade kommunismen som ett existentiellt hot och ansåg att det tyska folket behövde expandera österut för att få tillgång till livsviktiga resurser såsom olja, stål och spannmål. Dessutom såg han slaverna som underlägsna och ämnade förslava eller eliminera dem för att ge plats åt tyskarna.Detta är det sjätte avsnittet i en serie av sju om andra världskriget från podden Historia Nu. Programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia, om Operation Barbarossa.Sovjetunionen var inte helt oförberedd på ett tyskt anfall, men graden av beredskap var otillräcklig. Trots underrättelserapporter om en förestående invasion valde Josef Stalin att ignorera många av varningarna, delvis på grund av misstro mot västerländska källor och en önskan att undvika provokation. Den sovjetiska armén var dessutom försvagad av tidigare utrensningar av officerare och led av bristande modernisering.Inledningsvis hade tyskarna stora framgångar genom sin "blitzkrieg"-taktik, vilket ledde till snabba framryckningar och inringningar av stora sovjetiska styrkor. Städer som Kiev och Smolensk föll, och tyska trupper närmade sig Moskva. Men den hårda sovjetiska vintern, långa försörjningslinjer och envist sovjetisk motstånd försvårade ytterligare framryckningar.Under invasionen begick de tyska styrkorna omfattande krigsbrott. Einsatzgruppen, mobila insatsstyrkor, följde efter de framryckande trupperna och genomförde massavrättningar av judar, romer, kommunister och andra grupper. Civila utsattes för brutala övergrepp, och många städer och byar förstördes systematiskt.Vändpunkten kom med slaget vid Stalingrad vintern 1942–1943. Efter månader av intensiva strider omringades och kapitulerade den tyska 6:e armén, vilket markerade början på en stadig sovjetisk offensiv västerut. Sovjetunionens förmåga att mobilisera sina resurser, den hårda vintern och Tysklands överskattning av sin egen kapacitet bidrog till denna vändning.Bild: Även om delar av den tyska armén var mekaniserad var man 1941 fortfarande i hög grad beroende av hästar och en stor del av soldaterna avancerade till fots.

Den 10 maj 1940 gick Nazityskland till anfall mot Nederländerna och Belgien. Fem veckor senare undertecknade Frankrike ett vapenstillestånd med Tyskland, som då ockuperade två tredjedelar av landet.Adolf Hitler hade spelat högt igen – och vunnit. Den åldrande franska militära ledningen var inte förberedd på ett modernt, rörligt krig. I stället var de fast i ett defensivt tänkande, samtidigt som tyskarna rusade fram i Europa med sina pansarkolonner, radiosamband och anfallsflyg.Detta är det fjärde avsnittet i en serie av sju om andra världskriget från podden Historia Nu. Programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia, om orsakerna bakom Frankrikes nederlag 1940. Hur kunde en av Europas mäktigaste arméer lamslås på så kort tid? Vilka militära misstag begicks, och vilken roll spelade politisk instabilitet och defaitism?Våren 1940 betraktades Frankrike fortfarande som en av Europas starkaste militärmakter, och dess allians med Storbritannien skulle fungera som en motvikt mot Nazityskland. Men mellan den 10 maj och den 22 juni föll landet samman under den tyska blixtkrigstaktiken.Fransmännen förlitade sig på defensiva strategier med Maginotlinjen, en rad fortifikationer längs gränsen mot Tyskland. Man antog att om tyskarna anföll skulle det ske genom Belgien, vilket gjorde att huvuddelen av den franska armén placerades där.Den tyska offensiven – Fall Gelb – överraskade dock de allierade genom att fokusera på ett blixtsnabbt pansaranfall genom Ardennerna, en terräng som de franska generalerna trodde var omöjlig att passera med stora mekaniserade förband. När tyskarna bröt igenom vid Sedan den 13–15 maj blev den franska armén snabbt demoraliserad och splittrad.Den franska arméns sammanbrott var inte enbart militärt. Landet led av djup politisk splittring, och defaitismen var utbredd bland både politiker och militärer. Det franska ledarskapet, under premiärminister Paul Reynaud, var osäkert på hur det skulle agera. När situationen blev ohållbar avgick Reynaud den 16 juni och ersattes av marskalk Philippe Pétain, som omedelbart inledde förhandlingar med Tyskland.Efter kapitulationen delades Frankrike in i två zoner: den norra delen ockuperades av Tyskland, medan den södra delen, med Vichy som huvudstad, styrdes av den nya Vichyregimen under Pétain. Formellt var Vichyfrankrike en självständig stat, men i praktiken var det en vasallstat som samarbetade med Nazityskland. Regimen införde hårda restriktioner, anpassade sig till tysk antisemitisk politik och deltog aktivt i deportationer av judar till koncentrationsläger.Pétains beslut att samarbeta med Tyskland vilade på tron att det var det enda sättet att bevara viss fransk autonomi och undvika ytterligare lidande. För många fransmän sågs detta dock som förräderi, och Vichyregimen har kommit att symbolisera en skamfylld period i landets historia.Bild: Tyska Panzer I och Panzer II i en skog i maj 1940.

This week, special guest Garrett Cash attempts to set a world record for the most preparation ever undertaken to appear as a guest on a single episode of a podcast. Meet Me in Las Vegas is a boring MGM film from 1956 set at the Sands casino in which Sinatra appears in a cameo as "Man at Slot Machine" for only a few seconds. You won't believe how far Garrett went to put this in its full context, spending over a year on the deepest dive yet undertaken for this show. Be prepared to learn a LOT about Las Vegas.

He's the nicest bad guy in town. His last name is an adverb. And he's got some pretty wacky bits! Sweetie pie comedian Josh Gondelman joins us to talk about 1984's Johnny Dangerously, Amy Heckerling's loving homage to 1930's gangster pictures. Things we attempt to understand in this episode: the cultural legacy of Joe Piscopo; the actual joke that's being told in the “Your Testicles and You” animated reel / is there one?; Marilu Henner's insane memory thing; if the Danny DeVito bull scene is a parody of anything; why does Richie Rich have cent signs in his name if he's so rich?; and most crucially - why is this movie so damned hard to see in 2025?!?!

Host: Jason Rigby Guest: Ashley M. Ryan (Pythian Priestess) Guest Bio: Ashley M. Ryan, known as Pythian Priestess, is an initiated priestess in a Hermetic Order dedicated to the Goddess Auset (Isis). With over half her life dedicated to studying and practicing magick and witchcraft, she rose to TikTok fame in 2019 and founded the Pythian Mystery School in 2020. Ashley is a spiritual leader, educator, and advocate for reclaiming the sacred feminine in its wholeness—light and shadow alike. Episode Overview: In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, Jason Rigby welcomes back Ashley M. Ryan, the Pythian Priestess, to discuss her evolving journey as a spiritual leader and the fierce, unapologetic nature of the divine feminine. Ashley shares her insights on sacred rage, the commodification of spirituality, and the importance of integrating the shadow self. Drawing from ancient archetypes like Black Isis, Kali, and the Black Madonna, she offers practical rituals and wisdom for women seeking wholeness in a world that often dilutes the sacred. The conversation explores themes of truth, resilience, and the balance of light and shadow, challenging the "love and light" narrative with a call to embrace the wild and transformative aspects of spirituality. Key Themes: 1. Sacred Rage and the Warrior Archetype Ashley steps into the "warrior archetype" as a woman, not to destroy, but to defend truth, the sacred, and the mysteries (01:40). She connects this to her astrological birth chart (Saturn and Mars in the sixth house), emphasizing service and discipline (01:40). 2. The Dilution of Spirituality Ashley expresses grief over the commodification of spirituality, watching it become a "branded ATM" rather than a transformative tool (02:35). She critiques spiritual bypassing and the avoidance of pain, especially post-LA fires (03:32). 3. The Dark Goddess and Wholeness Referencing Dancing in the Flames by Woodman and Dickinson, Ashley explains the absence of the dark goddess in modern society and its damaging effects (04:41). Archetypes like Kali, Black Isis, and the Black Madonna embody resilience, fierce love, and the integration of suffering (16:06, 20:00). 4. Thumos: The Spirited Fire of the Soul Ashley introduces the ancient Greek concept of Thumos—righteous anger that defends truth and honor—contrasting it with the "love and light" narrative (10:39). She ties this to Plato's chariot allegory and the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot's Chariot card, symbolizing balance between the soul's appetites and higher aspirations (14:05). 5. Embracing the Shadow Ashley emphasizes that the shadow is not an enemy but a part of wholeness, urging listeners to alchemize pain into wisdom (33:50, 35:15). She shares a personal story of a nightmare at 15, revealing unexpressed rage and the unconscious mind's role in healing (23:04). 6. Practical Rituals for Integration Ashley offers two rituals: mirror gazing with a candle to confront the soul (28:38) and scrying with a black bowl to uncover unhealed wounds (30:11). She stresses the importance of action post-ritual, such as therapy or inner child work (32:53). 7. Fear and the Occult Addressing fear around witchcraft and the occult, Ashley attributes it to societal conditioning and the rejection of feminine archetypes (42:16). She invokes Ma'at (balance and justice) as a source of boldness to face suffering and reclaim the sacred (40:42). Detailed Timestamps: 00:01 - Introduction: Jason welcomes Ashley back, noting her journey as Pythian Priestess and the success of her prior episode. 00:41 - Ashley's Current Calling: Ashley discusses stepping into the warrior archetype to defend truth and the sacred, inspired by her birth chart (Saturn and Mars in the sixth house). 02:35 - Sacred Rage and the Pythian Mystery School: Ashley reflects on the commodification of spirituality post-LA fires and her mission to restore its depth through the Pythian Mystery School and her podcast, The Occult Unveiled. 04:41 - The Dark Goddess: Introduction to Dancing in the Flames and the societal lack of the dark goddess, with Ashley advocating for women to "take up the sword" against patriarchal imbalance (05:25). 10:39 - Thumos and Truth: Ashley explains Thumos as righteous anger, linking it to Plato's chariot allegory and the tarot's Chariot card (14:05). She ties it to four virtues: wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance (12:00). 16:06 - Black Isis and Black Madonna: Ashley explores Black Isis as a symbol of suffering and resilience (17:13) and the Black Madonna as wisdom and realism (20:00), forged in chaos and fierce love. 22:08 - Teaching Wholeness at Pythian Mystery School: Ashley uses dreams and meditations to help students confront the unconscious and embrace the dark goddess (22:36). She shares a personal nightmare as an example (23:04). 28:38 - Practical Rituals: - Ritual 1: Mirror gazing with incense and a candle to see beyond the mask (28:38). - Ritual 2: Scrying with a black bowl and an invocation to uncover unhealed parts (30:11). 33:50 - Embracing the Shadow: Ashley reframes the shadow as a source of strength, not evil, and shares her hypnosis therapy experience to alchemize pain (37:07). 38:40 - Fostering Righteous Anger in the Mystery School: Through meditations, students meet archetypes and receive symbolic gifts (daggers, keys), fostering self-understanding (39:42). 42:16 - Overcoming Fear of the Occult: Ashley attributes fear to societal rejection of feminine archetypes and credits Ma'at for her boldness (40:42). 47:32 - Where to Find Ashley: Ashley shares links: pythianmysteryschool.com, Etsy (Pythian Priestess) for tarot readings, and YouTube for Pause with Pythian and free classes. Notable Quotes: Ashley on Sacred Rage: "There is a lot of rage right now in our society... It is a warrior for truth. It's a warrior for the sacred and to defend the mysteries." (01:40) On Spirituality's Dilution: "I'm watching it become an ATM for people. It's lost its meaning and it's a tool that should be used." (02:35) On the Dark Goddess: "Light is blinding. Light hurts. It's about breaking through illusion." (10:11) On Thumos: "It's the passion and the fire in my soul to bring back the sacred into the world." (14:05) On the Shadow: "You can turn the poison into medicine because the change in the integration is saying, ‘Okay, so this is the symptom.'” (37:07) Resources Mentioned: Book: Dancing in the Flames by Marion Woodman and Elinor Dickinson (available on Amazon, eBay, and Internet Archive).

Uncover the Unconscious: Use a scrying bowl with an invocation to reveal unhealed wounds, then act on the insights (30:11).

Ryan, as Pythian Priestess, challenges listeners to move beyond superficial spirituality and embrace the transformative power of the dark goddess. Whether through rituals, shadow work, or her teachings at the Pythian Mystery School, she offers a path to truth and resilience in a world craving balance.

Sociologin blev viktig för att förstå samhället under de snabba samhällsomvandlingarna i Norden på 1960-talet. Sociologin bröt med den tidigare dominerande elitens konservatism och nationalromantik.Erik Allardt (1925–2020) var en av Nordens mest inflytelserika sociologer. Genom sina empiriska studier om klass, språk och social integration formade han sociologin i Norden. Han intresserade sig bland annat för varför småbrukare i vissa områden blev kommunister.I podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Jan Sundberg, professor emeritus i allmän statslära vid Helsingfors universitet, om Erik Allardts betydelse för nordisk sociologi, hans forskning om finlandssvenskar och kommunismen i Finland. Jan Sundberg medverkar i antologin Erik Allardt och den moderna sociologins genombrott.Erik Allardt föddes i Helsingfors i en bildad borgerlig familj och doktorerade 1952 vid Helsingfors universitet med en avhandling om skilsmässofrekvenser och deras socioekonomiska orsaker. Som professor i sociologi (1958–1990) utbildade han generationer av finländska sociologer och hade nära kontakter med internationella forskare som Seymour Martin Lipset och Robert Merton.Allardt studerade kommunistiska rörelser i Finland, särskilt "ödemarkskommunism" i glesbefolkade områden. I Social struktur och politisk aktivitet (1956) använde han empiriska metoder för att analysera varför vissa grupper drogs till kommunismen. Hans forskning om kommunism undersökte hur klass, utbildning och ekonomi påverkade politiska preferenser och utgjorde en viktig grund för senare studier om politiska rörelser i Norden.Hans studier av finlandssvenskar, ofta i samarbete med andra forskare, belyste språkminoritetens sociala och ekonomiska position. I Språkgränser och samhällsstruktur (1981) analyserade han den finlandssvenska befolkningen ur ett jämförande europeiskt perspektiv, vilket blev en milstolpe inom minoritetsforskningen. Han undersökte hur språklig och kulturell tillhörighet påverkade finlandssvenskarnas sociala och ekonomiska situation och visade att gruppen var heterogen samt att språkets status förändrades över tid.Hans studier om minoriteter och politiska rörelser är fortsatt aktuella i diskussioner om identitet, nationalism och social sammanhållning. Genom sitt arbete bidrog han både till akademisk forskning och samhällsdebatten i Finland och Norden.Allardts arbete har haft en bestående påverkan på sociologin och samhällsvetenskapen i Finland och Norden. Hans kombination av empiriska data och teoretisk analys inspirerade flera generationer av forskare. Hans teori om välfärd används fortfarande för att förstå livskvalitet och social hållbarhet.Bild: Valaffisch från kommunvalet i Finland från Demokratiska Förbundet för Finlands Folk (DFFF) 1945. Kommunisterna var mycket starka i Finland efter kriget med tvåsiffriga röstandelar. Sociologen Erik Allardt intresserade sig för varför kommunisterna hade så stort folkligt stöd i Finland.

EPISODE 84 - “THE MAKING OF MAGIC: BEHIND THE SCENES ON THE WIZARD OF OZ - PART 1” - 4/21/2025 Perhaps one of the most beloved movies of all time, the MGM classic The Wizard of Oz debuted in that magical year of 1939. Based on the popular children's books by Frank L. Baum, it tells the story of a Kansas farm girl, Dorothy Gale, who, along with her devoted dog Toto, is transported to the magical land of Oz. This beloved classic has become such a touchstone in pop culture that phrases like “There's no place like home,” “Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore,” and “I'll get you, my pretty” have entered our collective lexicon. This week, we offer the first of a two part episode that explores the making of this MGM classic film.

What is the purpose of libraries in the era of the internet and AI? Whether at a school or in a community, libraries used to be key providers of information and enjoyment for many. But now, in a digital age, more books and periodicals are available online than even the biggest library can hold. If terabytes of text can now be stored on a single laptop, do we need to think differently about the way we access and navigate books? Could well-designed AI tools be trusted to make sense of this information abundance in a similar way that a good librarian can?Rajan Datar discusses the past, present and future of libraries with Randa Chidiac, Director of Library Services at the American University in Dubai; Dr. Andrew Hui, Head of Literature Studies at Yale-NUS College in Singapore; and Brewster Kahle, computer engineer and digital librarian, founder of the Internet Archive and Wayback Machine.
