Podcast appearances and mentions of jack aubrey

On this episode of Remainders, we watch the 2003 war epic Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. Based on the series of novels, Master and Commander is a chase movie that goes much deeper. Russell Crowe plays Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey, and Paul Bettany plays Dr. Stephen Maturin. The Captain represents leadership and duty, and the Dr. represents academia and revolution. As they chase the elusive French war ship The Acheron, the two men both test and help each other during the Napoleonic Wars. Old-school action filmmaking in a modern war epic – she's in her prime.Other topics include Peter Weir and Australian directors, more Russell Crowe buddy movies and L.A. Confidential, the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Tom Cruise and Mission: Impossible, ai in movies and tv, and fast food we're eating and not eating lately.Song Picks of the WeekMuzzle by The Smashing PumpkinsHawaii by The StrokesRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

One of the most remarkable literary achievements of the 20th century emerged in 1989 when W.W. Norton published Patrick O'Brian's multi-volume fictional re-creation of British naval life during the Napoleonic Wars. Eventually stretching to twenty books, O'Brian's account of the lives of Captain Jack Aubrey and his great friend, Doctor Stephen Maturin entranced reviewers and millions of readers. A reviewer from the New York Times stated that O'Brian's books are simply "the best historical novels ever written." "Master and Commander" is the first Hollywood movie made from O'Brian's books and what follows is not a review but rather an essay that uses the movie to frame a discussion of leadership. The focus is the character of Jack Aubrey- created by Patrick O'Brian, visualized by director Peter Weir and brought to life by actor Russell Crowe. An examination of Aubrey's behavior, thoughts and values throughout the movie provides a wealth of insight into the concept of leadership. As the movie begins, it is the spring of 1805 and we are aboard HMS Surprise, a small Royal Navy frigate with a crew of 197 souls and an armament of 28 guns. HMS Surprise serves as a tiny but exact mirror of the actual British navy and Jack Aubrey serves as an archetype of a fighting British sea-captain during the Napoleonic wars. As we will see, the movie title of "Master and Commander" is actually an incomplete description of Aubrey's role, which can more accurately be described as "Master, Commander and Leader." Each of these three roles describes a different aspect of Aubrey's performance. Each derives from a unique set of competencies but all three roles strongly complement each other. The fact that Aubrey is successful as master, commander and leader has a decisive effect on the course of events in the movie. HMS Surprise has left England under orders to find the French frigate Acheron and "sink, burn or take her as a prize." The Surprise is off the coast of Brazil and approaching a fogbank that seems to contain something suspicious. When the alarm is raised, we are introduced to Captain Jack Aubrey who peers into the fogbank, sees gunflashes and quickly realizes that the Surprise is about to be mauled by the larger, more heavily gunned enemy ship. Aubrey is energized by the prospect of combat ("straight at 'em, Mr. Mowatt!") but events quickly take a turn for the worse as Surprise's rudder is shot away and the British barely escape into the fog. We learn more of Aubrey in the wake of the Surprise's first disastrous encounter with the French. The ship's officers, somewhat in shock, are discussing the engagement and they observe that Acheron was "more like a ship of the line than a frigate" and "our shots couldn't penetrate." They all assume that the clear superiority of the French ship means the Surprise will have to abandon its mission and return to England. Their misgivings are well-founded. HMS Surprise, with 28 guns, is about as small as a ship can be and still be called a frigate. By way of comparison, the four British frigates that fought at Trafalgar were all armed with at least 36 guns. Jack Aubrey, however, sees the situation from a very different perspective. Positively radiating with decisiveness, he tells his officers that there is not a moment to lose if they are to carry out repairs and catch up with the French. As the ship recovers, we see an absolute beehive of complicated, intense activity; a visual reminder that warships of this period were the largest, most complex and deadliest moving objects in the world. In addition, these ships were a veritable "system of systems" and competent commanders had to know every aspect of their ship. We see Captain Aubrey talking gunnery with the gunner, navigation with the sailing master and ship repairs with the carpenter. Aubrey's obvious competence links to a leadership insight derived from Clausewitz. The Prussian philosopher of war once observed that great leaders need to be decisive but it...

We reach the end of our voyage, but before we get there we'll meet old friends, deal with friction in the younger generation, and encounter a familiar kind of personal jeopardy for Stephen. After that, all that's left to say is 'thank you' and 'until the next time'.

Admiral Thomas Cochrane, was the inspiration for C.S. Forester's naval hero Horatio Hornblower or Patrick O'Brian's, Jack Aubrey (played by Russell Crow in the film, “Master and Commander”).Largely forgotten to the general public, yet he was one of the Royal Navy's most audacious and feared commanders during the Napoleonic Wars, known to his enemies as the wolf of the sea and El Diablo (the devil). In a rollercoaster career, he didn't just fight in the Royal Navy but also in the navies of Chile, Brazil and Greece in their wars of independence too.An engineer, who worked with the father of Isambard Kingdom Brunel and whose inventions are still used today; he eloped with a woman 20 years his junior and was humiliatingly thrown out of parliament and stripped of his knighthood after being convicted of serious fraud.He ended his days, honour restored and is buried in Westminster Abbey.The life of Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane (Lord Cochrane / Earl Dundonald) is one heck of a story!Get my free weekly newsletterSupport the Show.

Welcome back!   In the first new episode in over a year, I was very happy and enlightened with sit down and chat with my friend Dan Holder. When I asked Dan what story he would be most interested in talking about for RTF he quickly replied Master and Commander.   As I learned, Master and Commander is a 20+ book series on the adventures of Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin. As such, we condensed the series down to watching the 2003 film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World; starring Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany. I absolutely loved this film and can't believe I didn't see it when it first came out.   In this episode we discuss: The British fleet and what it meant to the British psyche The role of duty and how historical pieces help us view how people in the past had different mindsets than today Superstition at sea and how that affects people The beauty of the Galopagos Islands and how they engender a sense of secular spirituality in me Many other elements of the film and books.   A big thanks to Dan in joining me for this episode, and stay tuned for more!

All Hands on Deck: A Modern-Day High Seas Adventure to the Far Side of the World by Will Sofrin https://amzn.to/41WFX9m A maritime adventure memoir that follows a crew of misfits hired to sail an 18th-century warship 5,000 miles to Hollywood In the late 1990s, Patrick O'Brian's multimillion-copy-selling historical novel series—the Aubrey–Maturin series, which was set during the Napoleonic Wars—seemed destined for film. With Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey and Paul Bettany as Stephen Maturin, the production only needed a ship that could stand in for Lucky Jack's HMS Surprise, with historical accuracy paramount. The filmmakers found the Rose, a replica of an 18th-century ship that would work perfectly. Only there was one problem: the Rose was in Newport, Rhode Island, not in Southern California, where they would be filming. Enter a ragtag crew of thirty oddballs who stepped up for the task, including Will Sofrin, at the time a 21-year-old wooden-boat builder and yacht racer, who joined as the ship's carpenter. All Hands on Deck is Sofrin's memoir of the epic adventure delivering the Rose to Hollywood. It's a story of reinvention, of hard work on the high seas, of love, and of survival. The Rose was an example of the most cutting-edge technology of her era, but in the 21st century, barely anyone had experience sailing it. The crew effectively went back in time, brought to life the old ways of a forgotten world, and barely lived to tell the tale. Just a few days in, a terrifying hurricane-strength storm nearly sank the Rose, and later, a rogue wave caused a nearly fatal dismasting. And the ups and downs weren't limited to the waves—with the crew split into factions, making peace between warring camps became necessary, too, as did avoiding pirates and braving the temptations of shore leave. All Hands on Deck is a gripping story of an unforgettable journey and a must-read for fans who adore O'Brian's novels and the dramatic film adaptation of Master and Commander.

In the late 1990s, Hollywood was abuzz with the possibility of a film adaptation of Patrick O'Brian's bestselling Aubrey-Maturin series, set during the Napoleonic Wars. With Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany cast in the lead roles, the production team scoured the globe for a ship that could stand in for Jack Aubrey's HMS Surprise. The answer came in the form of the Rose, a meticulously crafted replica of an 18th-century ship, moored in Newport, Rhode Island.However, there was one problem - the filming was set to take place in Southern California, thousands of miles away from the Rose's current location. Enter Will Sofrin, a 21-year-old wooden-boat builder and yacht racer, who signed up as the ship's carpenter. Along with a ragtag crew of thirty oddballs, Sofrin embarked on an epic adventure that would test their mettle in ways they never could have imagined.In his memoir, All Hands on Deck, Sofrin recounts the trials and tribulations of the voyage, from navigating the treacherous waters of the North Atlantic to dealing with the crew's factions and avoiding the pitfalls of shore leave. The Rose, an example of cutting-edge technology in her day, required a level of skill and knowledge that was all but forgotten in the 21st century. The crew effectively went back in time, relying on old-world techniques and working tirelessly to keep the ship afloat.Despite their best efforts, disaster was never far away. A hurricane-strength storm nearly sank the Rose, and a rogue wave caused a near-fatal dismasting. The crew's camaraderie was put to the test as they struggled to keep the ship and each other alive.All Hands on Deck is a gripping tale of adventure, resilience, and survival, a must-read for fans of O'Brian's novels and the film adaptation of Master and Commander. Sofrin's memoir is a testament to the human spirit, and a reminder that sometimes the greatest rewards come from taking the biggest risks.Check out the book at Will Sofrin

This week, we discuss two films from award-winning Australian director Peter Weir. The first is Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), an adaptation of the celebrated novel of the same name. It tells the story of a group of girls and their teacher who go missing during an excursion to the mysterious Hanging Rock. The second is Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003). The film stars Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey, a decorated British naval captain, and Paul Bettany as Stephen Maturin, the ship's surgeon.   Timestamps Picnic at Hanging Rock (00:08:40) Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (00:48:04) Coin toss (01:29:35)   Links Instagram - @callitfriendopodcast @munnywales @andyjayritchie   Justwatch.com – streaming and rental links - https://www.justwatch.com The Making of Master and Commander - https://youtu.be/DFvJO2-t0aQ Stewart Lee on Braveheart - https://youtu.be/tHA1ufmLZQY

Characters in fiction come in a huge variety, and creating characters involves techniques that discussed in this episode.  There are reasons we find Scout Finch and Hermione Granger and Jack Aubrey and Katniss Everdeen so compelling, and let's find out why.Support the show

This week we're bring you a special episode on  leadership lessons from Jack Aubrey, Stephen Maturin and some of the leadership thinkers connected to them.  We get help from French naval history researcher Olivier Aranda. 

We reach the conclusion of our review of M&CFSOTW in collaboration with the Cine-Files - can Jack Aubrey keep his naval family together? Can Hollom find leadership within himself? Will Stephen ever get to see his flightless cormorant? And what kind of surprise awaits the Acheron?

We muse on what is and is not poetical, and Stephen misses a rhinoceros and thousands of flamingos. Jack's cold continues to dog him, and we have the possibility of some unexpected action, usually the perfect thing to set up our hero, Jack Aubrey. Ch 6,7

It is not often that we have both a National Best Seller and the winner of the John Lyman Book Prize for Canadian Maritime and Naval History on the show at the same time, but that is exactly what happened when John MacFarlane joined with us to discuss his book Around the World in a Dugout Canoe. Think of a sea captain in the image of Russell Crowe, but not Jack Aubrey, but more of a rascal; that is John Voss. Anticipating fame and wealth, Captain John Voss set out from Victoria, BC, in 1901, seeking to claim the world record for the smallest vessel ever to circumnavigate the globe. For the journey, he procured an authentic dugout cedar canoe from an Indigenous village on the east coast of Vancouver Island. For three years Voss and the Tilikum, aided by a rotating cast of characters, visited Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Brazil and finally England, weathering heavy gales at sea and attracting large crowds of spectators on shore. The austere on-board conditions and simple navigational equipment Voss used throughout the voyage are a testimony to his skill and to the solid construction of the Nuu-Chah-Nulth vessel. Both Voss and his original mate, newspaperman N.K. Luxton, later wrote about their journey in accounts compromised by poor memories, brazen egos and outright lies. Stories of murder, cannibalism and high-seas terror have been repeated elsewhere without any regard to the truth. Now, over a century later, a full and fair account of the voyage—and the magnitude of Voss's accomplishment—is at last fully detailed. In this groundbreaking work, marine historians John MacFarlane and Lynn Salmon sift fact from fiction, critically examining the claims of Voss's and Luxton's manuscripts against research from libraries, archives, museums and primary sources around the world. Including unpublished photographs, letters and ephemera from the voyage, Around the World in a Dugout Canoe tells the real story of a little-understood character and his cedar canoe. It is an enduring story of courage, adventure, sheer luck and at times tragedy.

This is a true story. I changed the names to protect the guilty. God will have to be his own judge on this one. Self judgement begs review. I can safely say it is not looking good for him. As for me I am guilty as charged. I ran drugs for God. Let me start with the reason for publicly admitting to the crimes of drug running, drug possession, smuggling, entering foreign countries without permission, running from the US Coast Guard, US Navy, and the Dutch Navy, deliberately violating a presidential order, and a host of international maritime laws. I have written a movie based on these transgressions. The movie is called “Not A Moment To Lose.” For your sharper tools in the shed, that is Jack Aubrey’s favorite saying in all the Patrick O’Brian (Aubrey/Maturin Novels). The film is a romantic comedy adventure. For those of you who know my writing, or I should say for the twenty or so people who know my film writing Romcoms are not a genre you would associate with me. So yes, it is a departure for me, as is telling the truth about my experiences on the high seas. Blogpost: https://offshoreexplorer.blogspot.com/2019/09/i-became-drug-runner-because-god-asked.htmlBe sure to subscribe, rate and review! Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScintilliansBuy us a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/offshoreexplorerPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/OffshoreexplorerEpisode links: Haiti Embargo: https://www.nytimes.com/1993/10/29/world/aristide-asks-un-to-place-a-total-embargo-on-haiti.htmlParthenon Marbles: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/greece-calls-again-for-return-of-pathenon-marbles/ar-BB14uBba 

Years ago I read Patrick O'Brien's novels about a British naval captain named Jack Aubrey. Seventeen or so books, set during the Napoleonic Wars. Jack Aubrey rose over that time from Master and Commander to Rear Admiral. I think I learned more about community from reading those novels than anything I have ever read. Several hundred people stuck together on a three-masted ship for months and years at a time—you learned quickly the give and take of life together! But another fascinating thing about those books were how many of the “idioms” in our common speech come from that time on those ships: “loose cannon,” “let the cat out of the bag,” “three sheets to the wind,” “pipe down,” “in the doldrums,” “shake a leg”…you get the picture. (I will let you trace them down if you don't know them!) In our text this week, we have a saying that has passed into idiom in our own day, as in, “He could read the handwriting on the wall.” That comes from a rather frightening encounter that Belshazzar had while in an inebriated state. So much so, it seems he wet himself. It has the effect of sobering Belshazzar immediately. The text sets up a contrast between Nebuchadnezzar and him. While one man hears revelation and his pride is crushed, the other hears revelation and is unmoved. On Sunday we are back in Daniel, dealing again with the last night of Belshazzar's life. It is haunting for this reason: “Belshazzar seeks and hears what the word of God says about him and he doesn't heed it. He is on the precipice of being delivered and he can't even see it! I mean, this is the folly of pride: he wants a different outcome, but he refuses to repent. He has tried paganism, hedonism, and power—and it has failed him. And yet he refuses to bow. God's revelation has terrorized him, but it is a kind terror.” (taken from sermon on Sunday) Hope to see you on Sunday, live and in person or via live-stream. This text has really ministered to my soul this week when I was sinking under the exile of COVID. I hope it will you as well. Blessings, Jim

Quick's the word and sharp's the action!We bring you a discussion on Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, one of the most brilliant historical films ever made (in our humble opinion). Russell Crowe plays the Kirkian Jack Aubrey, commander (and master) of the HMS Surprise up against the most powerful ship in the French navy, the Acheron, depicted with the artistic grace of making it one of cinema's most formidable antagonists.This is one of our favorite films of all time. And with us to talk about is the color Eliot Greene, a teach of English and History who brings with him an insightful and thorough look into the world setting of Master & Commander, based on the famous book series by Patrick O'Brian. A swashbuckling epic, a brilliant screenplay and one of the most historically accurate films ever made. This is one you definitely want to give more than 5 to (we'd suggest giving it 138).
