Join our hosts on the wee Scottish Isle of Hegg (or, rather, the Isle of Mann, masquerading as Scotland if we are being honest about our filming locations) as they review Chelsea's pick: The Decoy Bride. Madison is baffled, yet delighted, at Chelsea's appreciation of the movie and both uncover the real reason why this movie works so well: David Tennant. Sure, the dialogue is witty and the accents and scenery are great, but the cast of the movie is really what elevates it to a height like that of the Hebridean cliffside. While we adored Kelly MacDonald's accent, can we please start letting David Tennant use his Scottish accent? For science? Either way, this movie is definitely worth the watch (and for what it's worth-- this is Madison's favorite episode this season).

The cinematic world of love and laughter had rom-com enthusiast Madison head over heels from the time Harry met Sally. For genre skeptic Chelsea, however, it's been a grueling enemies-to-lovers plot. In Love at First Screening, Madison introduces Chelsea to all the fan-favorite love stories she's never wanted to watch.

Rivalry Co-Founder & CEO Steven Salz talks about sports vs casino gambling, operating at the intersection of E-Sports & Entertainment, moving content from a 'transactional' to an 'entertainment' focus, the unbelievable magnitude & growth of E-Sports worldwide, appealing to his predominantly Millennial & Gen Z customer base, why ‘skins' were the original currency for betting on gaming, lessons learned from Red Bull's marketing, why you will NOT find any Kardashians endorsing Rivalry, the transition from a private to a public company traded on the TSX Venture Exchange, why MOBILE E-Sports will be the next big wave, and why an Isle of Mann license is actually highly desirable and NOT a ‘Bond Villain' fictional jurisdiction!

We find out a little more about George Stepney of Belle Vue in Maughold, before exploring old Laxey and the Laxey valley. After that, we head for Douglas and the end of our excursion led by Rev Thomas Stephen's 1832 publication, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', and the end of his book. We return to Mina Murray's Journal in the translation into Manx Gaelic of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula'. Her ploy of getting Lucy Westenra tired out before bedtime seems to work at first, but quickly turns to dramatic concern.

Our 1832 publication, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann' by Rev Thomas Stephen, has brought us to explore down north, to which we came via the western route. After seeing some of the sights - including Thomas Stephen's old family home in Ballaugh - we set out to return to Douglas, this time by the east coast route. In this episode of our Manx translation of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', whilst the ship's log of the Demeter has been given in evidence before an inquest, the verdict is left open. The burial service for the captain - regarded as a hero by the populace of Whitby - is a touching one, observed by Mina Murray and Lucy Westenra, but ends in an unpleasant incident.

We move on northwards from Ballaugh, and the area is notable for being wooded - something rare in the Island in 1832 when the Rev Thomas Stephen published 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann'. We find out about Sulby and Milntown before arriving in Ramsey. In our translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', we hear of the aftermath of the surprising arrival into Whitby Harbour of a Russian schooner - and it's equally, if not more, surprising, according to the correspondent of a newspaper called The Dailygraph.

Rev Thomas Stephen's 1832 publication, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', has brought us to what he calls 'Dunlop's Ellerslie left in the lurch'. We start to find out about one-time owner of the farm, Anthony Dunlop, and we two personal glimpses of him, one as an older agriculturalist by Hannah Bullock in 1816, and the other by Scottish poet, Robert Burns, in a letter to Anthony's mother in 1790, when Anthony was 16. Bram Stoker's ancient mariner, Mr Swales, is continuing with his explanation as to why the gravestones in the churchyard at Whitby are full of lies. Mina Murray and Lucy Westenra are a bit taken aback by it all.

The author of our 1832 publication, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', Rev Thomas Stephen, seems to have a particular interest in Sir George Moore, but we also find out about other notables that he refers to as he takes us out to Glen Maye - or Glen Moij as it was in his day. In this week's episode of a translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', Dr John Seward deals with the refusal of his marriage proposal by Lucy Westenra by studying an asylum patient who particularly interests him. Meanwhile, Mina Murray writes up about Whitby in her journal as she visits Lucy and her family who have taken rooms there.

Hey everyone, what is going on? Welcome back for another round of TT. On this week's episode, Ron and Jorge catch up. We discuss getting his dad's 1950 Ford running, the racism controversy that occurred with a Red Bull F2 driver, Jorge went to a supercar track day and Ron went to an Indy Car practice session. Plus, an interesting discussion regarding how dangerous the Isle of Mann TT really is. All that and more on the 13th installment of Tormenting Tarmac. Enjoy and remember, enthusiasts never die.

We're visiting the Chasms with the Rev Thomas Stephen, following 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann' which he published in 1832. We'll return to Castletown by a circuitous route for our evening meal and accommodation - but not before the Rev Stephen leads us on yet another sight-seeing stroll before we sit down to eat. Not knowing of the perils facing her fiance, Jonathan Harker, in Castle Dracula, Mina Murray is exchanging letters with her old school friend, Lucy Westenra. Lucy reveals she, too, is engaged - and there's more!

We're on an excursion, the first of several following Rev Thomas Stephen's 1832 'A Poetic Guide to the Isle of Mann'. We left Douglas via the Nunnery, Kewaigue, Richmond Hill and Newtown, and had reached Ballasalla. Onwards, then, to the Island's former capital, Castletown, where Mrs Kneen is to provide an evening meal. Despite his hopes of slipping out when the Szganee and the Slovakee leave, Jonathan Harker is still stuck in Castle Dracula. Meanwhile, the young woman to whom he is betrothed, Mina Murray, corresponds with her school friend, Lucy Westenra.

Rev Thomas Stephen takes us for a stroll round parts of Douglas and out to old Kirk Braddan, and we look at the background to some of the things he mentions in his 1832 poem, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann'. Jonathan Harker has been disappointed by the Szgany, who turned his letters over to Count Dracula. His renewed hope of getting information out through a part of Slovaks is soon dashed, and then finds that the Count is up to fresh mischief. However, that's not his greatest terror.

We continue to follow Rev Thomas Stephen's 1832 work, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', in which we hear of the work of the hobblers, the harbour boatmen, and one lady's misfortune on being helped ashore at Douglas. Jonathan Harker's hopes are raised by the appearance of a group of gypsies in the courtyard of Castle Dracula - perhaps he can send letters clandestinely through them, unknown to the Count. His letter to Mina is written in shorthand.

Writing in 1832, Rev Thomas Stephen is giving us 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann'. He includes the Island's government, including the role of the Legislative Council - though without mentioning that he, as Vicar-General, was an ex officio member of it. Jonathan Harker realises that he was not dreaming when he was faced with three beautiful women for whom he felt lust, which turned to horror when it became obvious they wanted to feast on his blood. Count Dracula has him prepare a series of letters - by the dates of which Jonathan Harker sees how long he can expect to stay alive before the Count kills him.

We continue with Rev Thomas Stephen's 1832 publication, 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', but we step aside every now and then to find out more about things he mentions in his text. In our translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', Jonathan Harker is exploring part of Castle Dracula where it appears the ladies of the household used to live. Feeling tired, he decides to ignore Count Dracula's warning about not sleeping anywhere but in the suite of rooms he has been using so far and to sleep here.

This is the fourth episode of our segment, Tales of the Unexplained, where I'll be talking about some of the aliens, spirits, semi-mythical creatures and various other entities that go ‘bump' in the night. Today, we're gonna be discussing some Celtic cryptids, by which I mean cryptids from England, Cornwall, Wales, Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Mann. More specifically, we're gonna be taking a look at six of the most well-known Celtic cryptids: Black Shuck; the Church Grim; the Banshee; the Dullahan; the Kelpie; and the Selkie. Now, a quick disclaimer before I begin. This series is comprised of folklore and urban legends. The existence of the cryptids featured in these episodes are, as of this recording, currently unconfirmed by the scientific community at large. As such, any and all opinions I may reach in this segment are mine and mine alone, unless explicitly stated otherwise. It is quite possible you may have heard different versions of the legends and stories I may retell in this series, so if you feel that the version you heard, or even may have experienced, is different to the one I tell, please bear in mind that I'm just a storyteller. I will try to cross-reference the different versions of the legends and stories, so if I miss something, that's on me. Also, this episode of the Raven's Grove features the following trigger warnings: · Body harm mentions · Physical combat related bodily trauma mentions · Animal predatory behaviour mentions · Being hunted mentions · Murder mentions · Witchcraft mentions · Urban legends · Folklore · Potentially frightening stories So if any of those are in any way an issue for you, PLEASE GIVE THIS EPISODE A MISS.

We dip once again into 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann' by Rev Thomas Stephen, published in 1832. It mixes proud bombast and hyperbole with tongue in cheek cheesiness and a sense of humour and awareness of its own mix of purple prose and bathos. Jonathan Harker can hardly believe his eyes as he witnesses Count Dracula's way of leaving his room to exit the castle. With the Count out of the way, he decides to explore further than he's hitherto dared.

We turn to 'A Poetical Guide to the Isle of Mann', written by Rev Thomas Stephen and published in 1832. He wrote in the Manx language as well, but we hear from his work in English this time. Thomas Stephen was Vicar of Kirk Patrick for 15 years and was also Vicar-General - though some parts of his work perhaps belie his day job! In our story in Manx, Count Dracula is pressing Jonathan Harker to write to his employer, Peter Hawkins, and to anyone else he wishes - but with a clear threat not to write too much. There's also a dire warning not to fall asleep anywhere else in Castle Dracula but in his own set of rooms.

Welcome to Make Yoga Magick Again: The House of Mages Podcast, streaming on all platforms here www.thehouseofmages.com/makeyogamagickagain Follow us on instagram www.instagram.com/thehouseofmages This is one I've looked forward to since I started the podcast. In this episode I chat with author and magician in every sense of the word, Michael Kelly. Born in 1965 on the Isle of Man, a descendant of Celts and Vikings, Michael was brought up on fairy tales told by people who actually still believed in fairies. Surrounded by hills and glens and by that most mystical of natural phenomena: the sea. It's small wonder that he grew up having learned to see around a corner or two, born into this land of magic and mystery. Even after earning disapproval for them during his schooling all the way into his career, his interest in mysticism and the transformative power of storytelling continued, but in a subdued and submissive way. Until the day somone asked him to write a book. Not just any old book, but a book on the ancient Celts, their beliefs and their worldview. Thus he sat down, struggled to learn the disciplines of writing, and eventually finished ‘The Book of Ogham'. Now, nearly 20 years later Michael Kelly has authored over 30 books, Including the groundbreaking Apophis and its expanded titles. Previously a master of The Order of Leviathan; an order within the well respected mystery school the Temple of Set, he dived deeply into the serpentine mysteries, eventually founding what is now known as The Apophis Club. This is a very personal interview for me. Michael Kelly has perhaps been THE most influential person on my magical journey. It was his books that I found about 10 years ago that really gave me the blueprint in which I've been able to build and expand upon my own growth and development. I even trekked to the other side of the world, to a small island called The Isle of Mann to meet with Michael in person, and was accepted as an apprenticed by him in the school known as The Rune Gild, in which he is also an active member and teacher within. So as you can imagine, I'm pretty excited to not only sit down with Michael for this podcast, but to now be sharing his paradigm shattering wisdom with you all. So without further ado, occult and fiction author, bizarre magician & mischievous jester, Michael Kelly. You can find out my about Michael Kelly via www.theapophisclub.com You can find more information about what we do here at The House of Mages by getting in touch with us at www.thehouseofmages.com Thanks for listening!

Christine Collister is an accomplished folk, blues, and jazz singer whose depth of work spans over 37 years, 24 albums, and stunning collaborations with some of the most decorated artists of our time.  Part One, we kick back as old friends would, as she touches upon unique and unexpecting experiences and tools that have informed her spiritual awakening, unfolding heart, and creative work in the past decade - from discovering the profundity of sacred toning in a sarcophagus on a pilgrimage to Egypt, to the healing potency of tensor technology.  Part 2 of this listening experience, Christine offers a spectacular video for this sweet episode -- her sacred toning -- sung amongst the Avalonian seaside caves from her home on the Isle of Mann.   (Suggested: watch the video portion first (PART 2), in order  to get a greater context of the toning experience before listening to this special episode.)

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”   Arthur C. Clarke The topic of how to manage and improve indoor air quality comes up a lot lately.   With all this interest come the offer of many “solutions” and devices.   Wish you could learn the back story of and technology inside some of these devices?   Ever wonder about the international perspectives on the topic of IAQ? The Building HVAC Science podcast is pleased to welcome our very first guest from another continent!   Listen in as Clive Mitchell, better know as Big Clive, gives us his perspectives on a spectrum of IAQ improvement products from beneficial to downright dangerous.   If you have not seen his YouTube Channel, you need to stop and look up BigCliveDotCom on YouTube. He's published thousands of dissection-like, teardown videos on a wide range of electrical and electronic products over the last 13 years.   Clive largely focuses on “cheap junk” teardowns and publishes a video every 2 days. Yet he also finds time to ponder such challenging societal questions like: “Does pineapple belong on pizza?” “What happens when you re-distill Jägermeister?”   He calls it the trashiest electronics channel on YouTube. Based on feedback, the bulk of his over 800,0000 subscribers seem to agree.   Big Clive lives on the Isle of Mann, a 221 sq. mile island with population of 83,000 located in the Irish Sea. This episode was recorded in May 2021.
