The New York Times asks: Can King Charles heal the fractured Royal Family before it's too late? In this wide-ranging episode, we explore that question and more — from William's growing public role and lingering “work-shy” reputation to the soaring cost of the monarchy, now £132 million a year. We examine Jeremy Clarkson's improbable return to royal favor, new claims that the William-Harry relationship is “fully broken,” and fresh criticism of Prince Harry's security choices following a solo trip to war-torn Ukraine.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 11ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1975 bhí rúndacht ordaithe I bhfiosrúchán a bhí ann faoin gharda óg a chuaigh ar iarradh mar níor chonaic aon duine é. I 2003 chuir Bertie Ahern agus Tony Blair cheist ar an IRA chun teacht amach leis an tsoiléireacht dá ghealltanas do shíocháin. I 2010 bhí a lán áiteanna chun dul don deireadh seachtain – bhí seó ómóis de Father Ted san Aonach Urmhumhan, bhí Mike Denver ag canadh agus chomh maith bhí Craobh na hÉirinn den Karaoke ar siúil sa teach tábhairne Talbot. I 2014 nuacht iontach do chamógaíocht Béal Átha Gabhann mar bhuaigh siad don chéad uair san Fhéile Tiobraid Árann nuair a bhí siad ag imirt I gcoinne Éire Óg Aonach Urmhumhan Sin The Bay City Rollers le Bye Bye Baby – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1975. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1994 tháinig Oasis amach lena chéad singil Supersonic – a shroich uimhir 31 ar na cairteacha sa Bhreatain. Ach I rith am dhíol sé níos mó ná 215,000 cóip – mar sin bhí sé a 13ú hamhrán is mó sa Bhreatain. Bhí an t-amhrán a chéad Singil chun a bheith ar na cairteacha Billboard I Meiriceá agus shroich sé uimhir 11. I 2001 d'ardaigh Robbie Williams 165 míle punt do charthanas leis an airgead ag dul chuig a shean scoil I Stoke chun áis taibhealaíona a thógáil Dhíol sé a lán rudaí cosúil le leithreas a bhí ar an stáitse leis, bhí bicíní leis an bhratach den Bhreatain ar, liricí de a amhrán Angels a dhíol do 27 míle punt agus a lán rudaí eile. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Jeremy Clarkson sa Bhreatain I 1960 agus rugadh amhránaí Duncan Laurence san Ísiltír ar an lá seo I 1994 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 11th of April, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1975: tight secrecy was ordered in an investigation into the mysterious disappearance of a young garda who has not been seen. 2003: Bertie ahern and tony blair issued the ira with a final demand last night for absolute clarity about its commitment to peace. 2010 – Places to go the weekend, A father ted Tribute Roadshow headed to Nenagh, Mike Denver was another offering of entertainment in the county and those could sing were attending the All Ireland Karaoke Championship in Talbot Bar. 2014 – Silvermines Camogie created their own piece of history when they were crowned Tipperary Feile champions for the first time by the narrowest of margins over Nenagh Eire Og. That was The Bay City Rollers with Bye Bye Baby – the biggest song on this day in 1975. Onto music news on this day In 1994 Oasis released their first single 'Supersonic' which peaked at No.31 on the UK charts. However, over time it has amassed sales of over 215,000, making it their 13th biggest selling single ever in the UK. 'Supersonic' was also the band's first single to chart in the United States, where it peaked at No. 11 on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. 2001 Robbie Williams raised £165,000 at a charity auction with the money going to his old school in Stoke to build a performing arts block. The items sold were Robbie's possessions, including a toilet from a stage show, a Union Jack bikini, Tiger's head briefs, a Millennium jet pack and the hand written lyrics to 'Angels' which sold for £27,000. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – Jeremy Clarkson was born on this day in the UK in 1960 and singer Duncan Laurence was born in the Netherlands on this day in 1994 and this is one of his songs. I'll be back with you next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Intenso fin de semana de motor con muchos frentes abiertos, especialmente, por lo que se refiere al Gran Premio de Japón y el Rally Sierra Morena, inicio del ERC. Esta semana, el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 analiza un Gran Premio más bien aburrido, en el primer episodio, pero habrá tiempo esta semana para preparar el siguiente y analizar el Sierra Morena. Belleza, velocidad,… y falta de emoción. A pesar de la increíble belleza de la pista japonesa, de la tremenda velocidad de los F1 en ella, incluso llegando a batir el récord de vuelta más rápida en el trazado, el fin de semana en Suzuka sólo tuvo un punto de emoción, la clasificación. Verstappen sentenció el fin de semana el sábado, sacando petróleo de un coche que tiene problemas y que fue de menos a más durante todo el fin de semana. Él sabía que adelantar aquí con estos coches es muy difícil y se sacó una vuelta estratosférica, apenas unas milésimas mejor que la de los McLarens. Es Verstappen y, como dijo Alonso, ahora mismo solo él es capaz de hacer esto. La carrera no tuvo prácticamente nada, ni siquiera la salida y, como mucho, destacar la parada en la que Norris intentó adelantar a Verstappen a la salida del pitlane. Sin embargo, el holandés ni se despeinó y dejó a su rival a raya, recortando la hierba del circuito japonés… seguramente para que no volviera a incendiarse. Las claves de la carrera en Japón. En resumen, en esta pista hay poco espectáculo porque, como bien apunta Jeremy Clarkson, las pistas en las que es difícil adelantar, no dan espectáculo (aunque él es más drástico y propone sacarlas del calendario…). Aquí, lo importante es conseguir la Pole, pues se ha ganado desde ahí en 8 de las últimas 13 carreras… y en 12 de ellas se ganó desde la primera fila. Después de Verstappen, Norris y Piastri terminaron Leclerc, Russell y Antonelli. Y sólo tras el rookie de Mercedes terminó Hamilton, que aún no se ha adaptado totalmente a su nuevo coche y equipo. Tsunoda, recién subido en el Red Bull, tan sólo consiguió ser 12º. Por otra parte, y hablando de los equipos y pilotos españoles, pobre desempeño de Sainz (14) respecto de Albon (9) - aunque ya sabemos que el madrileño siempre empieza bajo la temporada y luego va mejorando, máxime adaptándose a nuevo monoplaza - y poco que decir de Alonso, que se quedó a la puerta de los puntos. Eso sí, su compañero, Stroll, que había hecho tan buen inicio de temporada, estuvo totalmente perdido (20).

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 8:45 We plan to record about once a month for now. I love the show Berlin ER on Apple TV, it's a lot like The Pitt, which I'm also watching. We were disappointed in the ending of Severence. Chandra is excited for the finale of The White Lotus. Royals: Minutes (8:45) to 33:00 Meghan released her As Ever collection this Wednesday morning. She had shortbread cookies, jam, tea and flower sprinkles. Everything was sold out within an hour. I bought the jam and some lemon ginger tea and Chandra got two teas and a jam. People were mad about how quickly everything sold out. Meghan also launched a commission-based ShopMy page with clothing, makeup and skincare. A woman named Sophie Chandauka has taken over Prince Harry's Lesotho-based charity, Sentebale. Harry co-founded it with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho in 2006. Both Harry and Prince Seeiso resigned from Sentable in late March. The majority of the board of trustees resigned several days before the announcement. Chandauka spent over 400,000 pounds on consultants, lost a major sponsor, and demanded a 300,000 salary, which was not granted. She also failed to fundraise for them and alienated the board as she pushed her way to the top. It was a hostile takeover and was aided by a man named Iain Rawlinson, a former trustee of Prince William's charity, The Tusk Trust. Chandauka and Rawlinsin did an interview together on Sky News. Chandra wonders when Rawlinson started manipulating Chandauka. He was seen at a Sentebale event in October. In her Sky News interview, Chandauka's main example of Prince Harry bullying her was when he resigned from Sentebale after she threatened to sue them. Chandauka spouted Windsor talking points against Harry in an interview with the Financial Times. She also was mad that Meghan and Serena Williams showed up at the charity polo match last April. Chandauka blamed Prince Harry for her failure to fundraise for Sentebale despite the fact that he donated 1.5 million from his proceeds from Spare and that the polo match raised over a million also. She's the woman whom Meghan asked to move during a group photo at that match, giving her a more central place instead of on the side next to Harry. The press made a huge deal out of this at the time and Harry emailed or texted Chandauka asking her to make a statement in defense of Meghan. She refused and now sources are saying that if the email got out it would be damaging to Harry. If so, why don't they release it? The British press's reaction in early March to Meghan gently telling Mindy Kaling that her last name was Sussex revealed so much. The British charity commission is investigating what happened at Sentebale. The trustees have spoken on the record about how abrasive Chandauka is. There's an ongoing narrative that Prince Harry is lonely, that he never should have left England, that he should come back to England. He's probably relieved to be away from these toxic people. We're excited for the second season of With Love, Meghan and hope she does seasonal episodes. Meghan's podcast Confessions of a Female Founder comes out April 8th. Prince William is going to be on Jeremy Clarkson's reality show, Clarkson's Farm. You might remember Jeremy Clarkson's horrible screed against Duchess Meghan. It's also notable that Will and Kate disappeared this week. Comments of the Week: Minutes (33:00) to end Chandra's comment of the week is from Jais on the post about Meghan's As Ever product launch. My comment of the week is from Lightpurple on the story about Cory Booker's marathon Senate speech. Thanks for listening bitches!
Outspoken British media personality Jeremy Clarkson has called on restauarants to introduce child-sized portions for adults using weight-loss injections. To discuss this dietician Orla Walsh, of Orla Walsh Nutrition.

V úrade je len pár týždňov, no jeho rozhodnutia už teraz hýbu zahraničnou politikou. Donald Trump sa cez víkend rozhodol uvaliť clá na svojich najbližších spojencov a následne ich pozdržať o jeden mesiac. Reakcie trhov, ale aj dotknutých krajín na seba nenechali dlho čakať. Čo teda Donald Trump zavádza, prípadne plánuje zaviesť, ako reagujú dotknuté krajiny, čo to znamená pre Američanov, a čo hrozí Slovensku či Európskej únii? Eva Frantová sa v podcaste Dobré ráno pýta Daniela Hoťku zo zahraničnej redakcie denníka SME a Jozefa Tvardzíka, ekonomického redaktora denníka SME a magazínu INDEX.

In this week's episode, I take a look back at the movies and TV shows I watched in Autumn 2024, and rate them from my least favorite to my favorite. TRANSCRIPT Hello, everyone. Welcome to episode 230 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is December the Sixth, 2024, and today we are looking at my movie/TV show roundup for Fall 2024. Before we get to that, we'll have an update on my current writing projects and then we will do Question of the Week. First up, I'm pleased to report that the rough draft of Orc Hoard is done at 78,000 words, so it'll probably end up being about exactly the same length as Half-Orc Paladin, the previous book in the series. I've also written a short story called Commander's Wrath that newsletter subscribers will get a free ebook copy of when Orc Hoard comes out and hopefully we're on track to have that out before Christmas. I'm also 7,000 words into Shield of Deception, which will be the fourth book in The Shield War series and if all goes well, I'm hoping to have that out in January or February. In audiobook news, recording is currently underway for Cloak of Masks and that will probably be out towards the end of January or perhaps February, depending on how long processing takes. 00:01:02 Question of the Week Question of the Week is designed to inspire enjoyable discussions of interesting topics. This week's question, what do you listen to while working: genre of music, audiobooks, podcast, nothing else so you can concentrate, et cetera. No wrong answers obviously, and we had quite a few answers. David says: I listen to audiobooks and music. Music ranges from classical to country to pop, bands and soul artists to instrumental. No rap or heavy metal or dance music or I listen to music from YouTube channels. If I have to really focus on what I'm doing, I'll turn it low so it doesn't distract. Justin says: video game music is my first choice. It can help you grind in real life just like it does in the game. If that isn't working for me, then rock or classical music with movie soundtracks at third. Brooks says: I tend to gravitate towards hard rock/punk rock. I have to stay adrenalized. Outside work, I'll listen to almost anything. Michael says: I find I can't listen to words or lyrics without getting distracted by them, so instrumental music is the way to go. Usually video game music too (the Stelara soundtrack is particularly epic), movie scores (Kingdom of Heaven is one of my favorites), or Dungeon Synth, an amazing music genre I only discovered recently. Barbara says: sometimes I play music while writing, but most of the time I prefer the silence so I can better hear the voices in my head. Of course, I prefer very specific types of music that always end up coming back no matter how much I try to stray. Jenny says: lots of EDM and techno if words would distract me or my solid nineties pop punk angsty mix. I also have a giant one I called “I heard it in a video game” for background music. John says: When I did/could work, I enjoyed outlaw country music, particularly that from Texas. Put me in a kick butt and take names kind of mood. When you're a plumber who gets paid by the work done, not the hour, that's where one wants to be. (A different) John says: I only listen to music when I'm working in the kitchen. I'm eclectic. Sometimes classical music, sometimes ‘80s prog rock with Hawaiian music and occasionally jazz tossed in. Juana says: I like rock and roll from many eras. I put my eclectic music on shuffle. I also listen to movie soundtracks: Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Animal House, et al. Brandy says: If I'm cooking, I listen to Pandora. There's a pop ‘90s - ‘20s station. I do have a few that are specifically listed, angry or sad, one more angry German metal or Mongolian throat metal, the other more goth and industrial. I read books instead of listening. If I'm proofing, I usually have something on in the background. Today it's Sanctuary Season One. Morgan says: ADHD means I jump around a lot on what I'm listening to depending on the day, but audiobooks- usually fantasy or horror. Podcasts- Pathfinder actual play podcasts, horror podcasts, and wrestling/gaming news podcasts. Music, whatever artist/album I'm obsessing over at the time, but usually prog rock, metal, or rap. Matthew says: I always have my iPad for background noise. If I'm particularly invested in getting chapters done, I'll put on something largely audible. Gary says: audiobooks, podcasts, worship music, Christian hard rock. Bob says: Retired now, but when I was working I didn't listen to anything-needed to concentrate on what I was doing. When paying bills, I sometimes have some Morse Code on in the background (one of my previous means of paying the bills). On long car trips, it's nice to have some distraction -whatever radio station I can find, preferably one with a story. In truck stops, we used to find some stories on disc that had the actors doing the voice of the characters and some of them were pretty good. For myself, I almost always listen to music while I'm working and that genre is usually soundtracks and video games, movies, and TV shows (in that order) that I liked, which makes it difficult to discuss music with people, I have to admit. I do listen to podcasts when I'm working outside, so long as I'm not using a power tool that requires earplugs for safe operation (which sadly seems to be most of the time). 00:04:42 Main Topic: Autumn 2024 Movie/TV Review Roundup Now on to our main topic, the review roundup of the movies and streaming shows I watched in Autumn 2024. I was going to do a combined Autumn/Winter 2024 one, but it was getting a bit too long, so Winter 2024/2025 will be its own post in a few months. I seemed to watch a lot of time travel movies this time around and quite a few with Space Magic. As ever, the grades are totally subjective and based on nothing more than my own thoughts and opinions. Now let's take a look at the movies and streaming shows from least favorite to most favorite. First up is Escanaba in Da Moonlight, which came out in 2001 and it is a surrealist comedy about hunting traditions set in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. 42-year-old Reuben Sodi is the only man in his family who has never shot a buck, so when he complains about this to his Native American wife, she casts a spell to help Ruben bag his first buck, which results in a very bizarre nighttime journey/vision quest. This includes UFOs, visitations by nighttime spirits, and a Department of Natural Resources officer having a mental breakdown. This was a funny movie, but it was definitely very weird and even more specific. If you're at all familiar with the hunting culture of Upper American Midwest, you'll get the humor. If you're not familiar with it, this will be like watching a movie from another planet. Overall grade: C. Next up is Looper, which came out in 2012. I didn't actually like this movie very much, but I respect how well done it was. Joseph Gordon Levitt plays Joe and is a type of assassin called a looper living in the US in 2044. About 30 years after 2044, time travel is invented but immediately outlawed. Since it's difficult to get away with murder in 2074 due to advanced technology, crime syndicates have taken to sending people they want eliminated back in time to 2044 where the loopers immediately execute the target in exchange for a big fat payout. Loopers can live like kings, but there's a price. Eventually the loop is closed and the looper's future self is sent back to be killed by his past self. Failure to comply results in an extremely grisly fate at the hands of the syndicate. Joe, being a hardened killer and drug addict, is fine with all this and even helps turn in a fellow looper who failed to close his own loop. Then Joe's future self arrives. Joe is about to kill Future Joe (played by Bruce Willis), but Future Joe escapes and Present Joe has to hunt down and kill Future Joe if he wants to survive. In the process, Present Joe stumbles across the farm of a woman named Sarah (played by Emily Blunt) and her young son Sid. Present Joe realizes that future Joe has traveled back to kill the child, Sid, who will be responsible for the death of Future Joe's wife in the future. Despite everything he's done, Present Joe is not okay with this and gears up to help Sarah defend Sid from Future Joe. This movie was on the very dark side of noir filmmaking: no good characters, essentially only various degrees of bad people trying to navigate their way through the maze of time crimes. I did strongly dislike how fundamentally nihilistic the movie was and the addition of telekinesis did seem like kind of a plot crutch. There is also some unnecessary nudity. Rian Johnson is actually an excellent filmmaker. Knives Out and Glass Onion were both very good, but I cannot imagine how someone will watch Looper and think, hey, this guy is a good choice for a Star Wars movie. Overall Grade: B- Next up is Agatha All Along, which came out in 2024. It was extremely well written and well-acted. You almost have to watch it twice just to admire how well put together the plot was. I wasn't expecting to like Agatha All Along, but it is an excellent example of writing a show with a villain protagonist and actually pulling it off. The show is also a good example of something I've talked about before on the podcast and the blog: characters can be likable, emotionally sympathetic, or both. It's sometimes tricky to write a character who's both, unlikable but emotionally sympathetic. By contrast, Agatha Harkness is an excellent example of a character who's both likable and highly, highly unsympathetic. Agatha All Along is indeed a show with a villain protagonist, but Agatha is charismatic enough to remain likable even though she's unquestionably an absolute monster who deserves every bit of suffering she endures. Actress Kathryn Hahn deserves major credit for making someone as evil as Agatha so charismatic. Agatha retains just enough of a sliver of sympathy to keep the audience from turning on her, but even when she shows flashes of humanity, beneath that there are even more layers of monster. She also does a very sort of a modern Doctor Who/ Sherlock thing where she talks very fast and puts up a flippant and silly facade, but she's actually calculating things several steps in advance and manipulating everyone around her to her final goal. Anyway, the plot of Agatha All Along is that Agatha finally breaks free from the spell of the Scarlet Witch placed on here at the end of Wandavision. However, Agatha doesn't have any magic left, which is a major problem for her because she has very many enemies who very much want to see her dead as soon as possible, but then a mysterious teenager turns up and asks for Agatha's help. He wants to walk the legendary Witches' Road and it has said that someone who walks the road and survives to the end will receive their heart's desire. Since Agatha doesn't have any other options and she has some major enemies, she agrees. Agatha, the teenager, and the Witches' Road itself all have very dark secrets and their reveal makes for some major drama. As I mentioned, the show was very well written and acted. I suspect that may be the secret for movie or TV success in the 2020s economic climate: good actors, an excellent script, and keep your costs down. Overall grade: B Our next movie is Field of Dreams, which came out in 1989. An Iowa farmer discovers he's a very specific kind of necromancer, like how sports medicine is a specific field of study. Maybe sports necromancy is a specific subclass for evil wizards or something. All joking aside, the main character is Ray Kinsella (played by Kevin Costner) and he's walking his cornfield one day and he hears a mysterious voice tell him “If you build it, he will come.” Ray builds a baseball field in one of his cornfields and began speaking to the ghost of Shoeless Joe, a popular baseball player who died in 1951. Soon a lot of other ghosts arrive and start playing baseball as well. The mysterious voice starts urging Ray to “ease his pain” and Ray concludes this must means Terrance Mann (played by James Earl Jones), an activist writer from the sixties who dropped out of the public eye and is living in seclusion. So Ray starts on a cross country trip to persuade Mann to come to his baseball field. This movie is really perhaps the ur-example of the Feel-Good Eighties Movies and maybe a Baby Boomer movie. The characters speak with near religious reverence for the ‘60s, baseball is the Great American Pastime, and Ray really wants to heal his relationship with the father he rebelled against back in the ‘60s. The best part of the movie was unquestionably James Earl Jones' character and his performance as he resigns himself to Ray's craziness and then starts to believe in it was pretty great. Overall grade: B Next up is Holiday, which came out in 1938. Holiday is a romantic comedy from the 1930s. Cary Grant plays Johnny Case, who has fallen in love with Julia Seton, the daughter of a wealthy New York banking family. However, his more individualistic outlook soon puts him at odds with Julia's more traditionalist family, though this draws the attention of Julia's elder sister Linda (played by Katharine Hepburn). It felt a bit like watching a play and a little research revealed that it was indeed based on a play from 1928, which may be why the film didn't do so well when it originally came out, though it is regarded as a classic today. Viewers in the Great Depression era would probably find it difficult to sympathize with a man who wanted to turn down a well-paying job at a bank, not out of moral objections to the bank's business practices, but because he would feel constrained. The Seton family is played as eccentric and somewhat troubled, but not as buffoons or villains as rich people were often portrayed in other 1930s movies. Good performances and worth watching as a classic, though sound technology has improved quite a bit in the last 90 years, so you probably will want to watch it with the captions on. Overall grade: B Next movie is Twisters, which came out in 2024. This is basically the same movie as Twister from back in 1995, but with some of the plot of Pride and Prejudice bolted on. Kate Carter (played by Daisy Edgar-Jones) is an Oklahoma storm chaser with her boyfriend and best friends. One day, one of their storm chases goes horribly wrong, killing Kate's boyfriend and most of their friends. Five years later, Kate is working for the National Weather Service in New York when her old friend Javi, the other survivor of that storm, asks for her help testing a new radar tracking system. Kate reluctantly agrees and they return to Oklahoma and crosses horns with storm YouTuber Tyler Owens (played by Glenn Powell) who makes videos of his truck shooting fireworks into tornadoes. Naturally, Kate and Tyler immediately misunderstand each other in the same way as in Pride and Prejudice but are forced to work together when it turns out that Javi's company might have ulterior motives. I thought this was a thoroughly enjoyable summer popcorn flick. Given how both Covid and the 2023 writers' strike hit this movie's production like two successive freight trains, it's astonishing it turned out so well. Overall grade: A- Next up is The Rings of Power Season 2, which came out in 2024. I have the same attitude towards this as I do with Starfield. I really like it. In fact, my Xbox told me I played Starfield for 270 hours in 2024, but I get why some people do not. This show is essentially very elaborate fan fiction. The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, despite the changes from the book, was still recognizably The Lord of the Rings. The Rings of Power is almost entirely its own thing. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this for a couple of reasons and hope it continues. First, it's nice to have an epic fantasy TV series that's not a nihilistic pornographic torture fest like Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon and is more competently executed than Disney's ill-fated Willow Series. Second, all things must be taken in their context. What do I mean by this? Perhaps a food comparison will illustrate the point. The book the Lord of the Rings is like Kobe beef prepared by the finest chefs in the world, the sort of experience you get maybe once or twice in your life if fortune smiles upon you. The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy is like a high-quality supermarket steak grilled in the backyard by someone who's pretty good at it. The Rings of Power is like McDonald's, but there are times when you really want some McDonald's. In fact, I kind of want a Big Mac after saying all of that, but The Rings of Power is really good McDonald's, the kind of McDonald's you have after driving the car for 250 miles without stopping across one of America's flatter and less populous states. The only place to eat for like a hundred miles in any direction is this McDonald's in the same building as a gas station, so you stop and don't expect very much, but it turns out the fries are crispy and salty and the nuggets are just right. I don't think it's surprising that The Rings of Power has had such a mixed reception. The Venn diagram of “enjoys Lord of the Rings” has some wildly divergent circles to it and that is a testament to the fact that the Lord of the Rings is such a great work of literature that so many people from so many very different ideological identity groups enjoy and identify with the book. Even ideological identity groups that are mortal foes agree on their approval of the Lord the Rings. So naturally each different group has its own strong opinion of what an adaptation should look like. With that very long-winded introduction out of the way, I liked season two and I thought it was an improvement over Season One, a lot more narrative tension. Season One perhaps spent too much time setting the table and building context, but Season Two works well in making Season One better in hindsight. The Rings of Power version of Galadriel is improved in Season Two because she was one of the few characters in Season One able to throw off Sauron's mental domination and seduction. The highlight of the season was the toxic dynamic between Sauron and Celebrimbor. Actors Charlie Vickers and Charles Edwards did an amazing job portraying the slow-moving disaster that Sauron and Celebrimbor's collaboration would create, two intellectual equals working together to create something great, but nonetheless, Sauron twists everything to his own ends. Their final scene together was just astonishingly good. The portrayal of Sauron is both very modern and true to Tolkien, a destructive narcissist who actually believes whatever lies he's speaking at any given moment. He really, truly believes he's going to heal Middle Earth, no matter how many people he has to kill to do it. The scenes with Prince Durin, his father, and one of the dwarven rings of power were great as well. It had the same sort of feel to it as an adult child watching with horror as a beloved parent succumbs to a drug addiction. The best new character the show created (in my opinion) is Adar, one of the progenitors of the orcs. Tolkien himself could never really decide on the origin of the orcs and came up with different thoughts throughout his lifetime. When editing The Silmarillion, Christopher Tolkien settled on the corrupted former elves version, which seems to be what his father had been leaning towards anyway. Rings of Power takes that to its logical conclusion. Adar wants his orcish progeny to live free of the dark lords Morgoth and Sauron, which makes sense because in the books, the orcs hated Morgoth and Sauron and only served them out of fear. Indeed, in The Lord of the Rings, Sauron seems to have secret police and informers among the orcs to keep track of their loyalties. Since the show displays how twisted and cruel Sauron really is, it makes sense that Adar is willing to go to any lengths to stop Sauron, no matter how extreme. The orcs are still monsters, including Adar himself, but they're monsters who want to be free of an even greater monster than themselves. If you've read The Silmarillion or The Lord of the Rings, you'll know all the characters' efforts are doomed to failure, especially Adar and Celebrimbor's, which lends an air of inevitable tragedy to everything that happens. I know some people were mad that Tom Bombadil was basically Wizard Yoda, but I thought it worked. Tom Bombadil is so inscrutable of a character that he can really do whatever he wants so long as he's inscrutable. It was also great how composer Bear McCreary wove a variation of Sauron's theme throughout the show. The soundtrack was A+ work in my opinion. Overall, I enjoyed the show and would like it to continue. If you know the difference between Fëanor, Finwë, Finrod, Felagund, Finarfin, Findulias, Fingon, and Fingolfin (without having to look it up), and in fact have everything about them from The Silmarillion memorized, you'll hate this show. But I think it's worth watching. Overall Grade: A- Next up is Casa Bonita Mi Amor, which came out in 2024. Way back in the 1990s I saw an episode of Frasier where Frasier and his brother Niles decide to buy a restaurant. A series of hilarious cascading disasters result. At the time I decided I never wanted to own a restaurant and every piece of both factual information and fictional media I have consumed since has not changed this decision. Casa Bonita Mi Amor definitely will not challenge that decision. Apparently, Casa Bonita was a beloved theme restaurant in Colorado that went out of business during Covid. Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators of South Park, decided to buy the restaurant themselves and reopen it. They budgeted $3.6 million for the restoration of the building. Costs soon swelled to $40 million and the problems were still only just beginning. This is an excellent and entertaining example of the “rich man buys restaurant, soon finds himself over his head” genre of documentary filmmaking. Overall grade: A Finally, my two favorite things I saw in Autumn 2024 and the first of them is the movie Frequency, which came out in 2000. It's another variant on a time travel story, but I like this one considerably better than Looper. Frank Sullivan is a firefighter and devoted family man living in New York circa 1969. His son John is a police detective living in the house 30 years later in 1999 with emotional problems because he never got over his father's tragic death in a dangerous fire 30 years earlier in 1969. When the son of a friend stumbles across his father's old ham radio, John lets the kid goof around with it. Later that night, John starts talking to someone on that radio and to his astonishment realizes he's talking to his father from 30 years ago on the same ham radio. Desperate, John tries to warn Frank about the fire that kills him and it works. Frank survives the fire and instead of dying 1969, instead dies in 1989 from lung cancer due to a pack a day habit. The scene where history changes and John suddenly realizes what has happened was pretty great, but this isn't the ending. We're only 40% of the way through the movie. John successfully managed to put right what once went wrong. However, in doing so, he accidentally also put wrong what once went right. His mother is a nurse and in the original timeline was on bereavement leave the day after Frank's death. In the new timeline, Frank is okay, so she goes to work and saves a patient who otherwise would've died in medical error and the patient happens to be the deadly serial killer known as the Nightingale. To his horror, John realizes that The Nightingale is now free to continue his murder spree and his new target is John's mother and Frank's wife. As I've mentioned numerous times before, I'm not really a fan of time travel stories, but this one was quite well done. Interestingly, the plot structure was similar to Avengers Endgame. The Avengers go back in time to steal the Infinity Stones to undo Thanos' Snap, but Past Thanos figures out what's going on and follows the Avengers back to the present and attempts to make things even worse than they already are. John manages to save Frank from the fire, but this means the Nightingale serial killer survives and might create a worse present than the one John already has, so that really adds an altogether excellent element of dramatic tension to the entire movie. As one amusing side note, this movie shared Field of Dream's reverence for baseball as the Great American Pastime and John manages to convince Frank he's telling the truth about their time travel radio by accurately predicting the outcome of baseball games. Overall grade: A Now the second favorite thing I watched in Autumn 2024, The Grand Tour: One for the Road, which came out in 2024. I admit that when I started self-publishing in 2011, I knew absolutely nothing about the contemporary United Kingdom, like I couldn't even told you whether the UK used the Pound or the Euro. When I started getting book royalties from Amazon UK, let's just say I learned about currency conversion rates really fast, but as UK book royalties fluctuated as they do, I started reading the UK news since when there's an election or major news event in the UK, book royalties tend to drop for a few days after the same way they do when something similar happens in the US. Because of that, I saw the news article when Jeremy Clarkson was fired from Top Gear in 2015 for punching out a producer. At the time, there were some seasons of Top Gear on Netflix, so I was curious and started watching and was thoroughly entertained. When Grand Tour started on Amazon, I started watching that as well and I was also thoroughly entertained, but all good things must come to an end. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May go on one last road trip adventure across Zimbabwe. The usual hijinks ensue for one last time, and it was a fitting end to Top Gear/The Grand Tour. I'll miss the show, but I am grateful for over a decade of entertainment from Top Gear/The Grand Tour and from the various spinoffs like Clarkson's Farm and James May's travel show. Overall grade: A So that is it for this week. Thank you for listening to The Pulp Writer Show. I hope you found the show useful.

In this episode of the Mark and Pete Show, we uncover the driving forces behind the growing frustration among farmers and small business owners. At the heart of their anger are policies like the rise in National Insurance contributions for businesses and proposed changes to inheritance tax, which threaten family-run farms and rural enterprises. We explore how these financial burdens are not only impacting farmers' livelihoods but also the broader agricultural industry and food security in the UK. Adding a unique perspective to the debate, we examine how Jeremy Clarkson's hit show Clarkson's Farm has brought farming struggles into the public eye, raising awareness about the day-to-day challenges faced by farmers. Is Clarkson's influence enough to spur meaningful policy changes, or are his efforts simply entertaining without impact? Mark and Pete dig into the political and economic implications of these changes, the ripple effect on rural communities, and what needs to be done to secure the future of British farming. Join us for a lively discussion filled with facts, opinions, and solutions to the pressing issues facing one of the UK's most vital industries.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.

It's the two hundredth Trawl! Jemma and Marina can hardly believe it and both recommend a couple of vintage eps to celebrate, as does editor Max. Then, it's over to the States to see what health recommendations RFK Jr. is making. Hopefully they'll be less effective than the ones he made in Samoa where there was a huge outbreak of measles and subsequent deaths as a result of his vaccine scaremongering. Then, along with hundreds of tractors, irate farmers and a smattering of Brexity types, to Westminster we go where the farming community have descended to protest against having to pay inheritance again, at a discounted rate. There is some sympathy for some farmers but, as far as Marina and Jemma are concerned, Jeremy Clarkson, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Farage can do one. They all either own acres and acres of tax dodging or caused the farming community endless pain and hassle due to Brexit. The irony is strong. The Trawl ladies are very grateful to Vic Derbyshire for her incredible interview with farm poster boy, Clarkson. It really revealed so much.....none of it flattering. They're also left wondering how excited ex Tory MP, Neil Parish, must be. All those tractors! Fwarrrr.

On Nick Ferrari at Breakfast,Jeremy Clarkson has called on the government to 'back down' on inheritance tax changes for farmers. US President Joe Biden agrees to give Ukraine anti-personnel landmines. Nick speaks to Science Secretary Peter Kyle and Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp.All of this and more on the Nick Ferrari Whole Show Podcast.
Thousands of farmers descended on Westminster today to protest the inheritance tax changes proposed in Labour's Budget. Amidst a sea of tweed and wellington boots, speeches and support came from the likes of Kemi Badenoch, Ed Davey, Nigel Farage and Jeremy Clarkson. To what extent is this just a fringe issue that the government will be able to brush off? Or has the issue exposed a rural blind spot for Labour? And how lasting could the damage be? Katy Balls and Spectator editor Michael Gove discuss with James Heale. But first, William Moore has been out and about getting the views of farmers directly from the protest... Produced by Patrick Gibbons, Cindy Yu and Megan McElroy.
Jeremy Clarkson For PM! And I'm only half joking! He has more charisma than any political leader in the U.K. When he spoke today at the demonstration for farming he was speaking for the Nation not just farmers. He has charisma, talent, wit, balls, determination and a clear vision. What does Starmer have? A charisma bypass, no backbone, no wit charm or grace. He doesn't even dress himself! A leader needs to have a presence aNd be in touch with the common man and Clarkson can do that without even thinking about it. When an assistant cocked up, Clarkson punched him! Starmer hasn't even got the back bone to fire CV forging liar Rachel Reeves. Could Jeremy Clarkson be our Trump?! Support here www.buymeacoffee.com/jongaunt `

Farmers have left their fields for the streets of London to protest changes to the inheritance tax announced in the budget. On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson heads to the protest outside Downing Street to speak to the farmers who are threatening to withhold food supplies if their demands aren't met. He also asks new farmer Jeremy Clarkson about why he thinks farmers should have inheritance tax relief.

The Woke Welsh government commissioned a report that stated dogs should be banned from the green green grass of home to make the valleys less racist! What a load of cobblers! Surely dogs help build community spirit not divide it?! If one particular community doesn't like dogs it should be a case of fit in or ship out shouldn't it? And lets be honest these woke warriors are obviously talking about the Muslim community whoo believe that dogs saliva is unclean. Now of course anyone is allowed to hold any crackpot idea that they wish and I respect that, even if I think it's stupid, but what shouldn't happen is that the majority view is disregarded for the minority. However the dog story is just one aspect of how politicians and city dwellers have no idea of what happens in the countryside. The attacks on inheritance tax or Jeremy Clarkson is ample proof that most of our leaders think country folk are racist loaded or even Fascist. This is a classic Gaunty rant!

It's not even been two weeks since the US election and already some in the US will be feeling that buyers' remorse, with even Trump himself receiving a little shock from Russia (not with love) to remind him exactly who's in charge.Jemma and Marina digest some of Trump's latest Government appointments, which are as wild as they are dangerous, with one tweeter saying "it's like Donald Trump appointing the Grinch as Director of the Department of Christmas". Then it's back to Blighty and an absolute howler from GB News in their coverage of the two minute silence for Remembrance Sunday before discussing Jeremy Clarkson's new role as the farmers' hero. Funny how when a celeb like Clarkson gets involved in politics, it's all good - and yet when it's someone like Gary Lineker, he should stick to football. Which takes us to the news of Gary's departure from Match of the Day and a clip that thankfully never got aired, otherwise he might have left sooner...Finally, Jemma and Marina discuss the media and political gaslighting over the events in Amsterdam and clashes with Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, before some Royal-related underrated tweets and a pudding from Billy Eilish that sent Marina's spine tingling.

Otra semana sin F1, aunque hemos estado entretenidos con lo que había dejado el GP de Brasil. En esta semana, para el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1, toca rebuscar un poco más, pero aún así hay noticias, incluso sin acción en pista. Nascar, los últimos en parar motores. La única acción en pista de este último fin de semana fue en la Nascar, donde se ha proclamado campeón Joey Logano. Y, aunque no es una competición muy seguida en España, digamos que no es mayoritaria, cuando no hay otra cosa… Pese a todo, como de costumbre la actualidad del motor no para de dejarnos buenas perlas que analizar y a eso se va a dedicar el programa esta semana, o estas dos semanas, algo que encanta a los seguidores. Último vistazo a un Gran Premio espectacular. Toca repasar más tranquilamente la opinión de los contertulios sobre el espectacular GP de São Paulo. Pero también hablar de los rumores que empezaron a correr por el paddock ese fin de semana: ¿sustituirá Colapinto a Pérez? ¿O el argentino se irá a Alpine? Y, cómo no, toca comentar la radio de Hamilton después de la carrera de Brasil, y tras el gran resultado de su compañero. ¿Tendrá razón Jeremy Clarkson cuando dice que el heptacampeón ha perdido mucho rendimiento? ¿o es sólo falta de motivación? Noticias frescas de última hora. A medida que se grababa el programa iban surgiendo más y más noticias de última hora. Por ejemplo, Dan Fallows, discípulo aventajado de Adrian Newey que llevaba varios años en Aston Martin, abandona su puesto de director técnico en el equipo. ¿Qué ha demostrado estos años de trabajo? Hubo momentos en los que parecía que el equipo iba hacia adelante y deprisa, pero últimamente… ¿A qué se debe esa salida? Mucho de qué hablar y mucho que sugerir, en un programa muy loco, con muchas noticias y muchas opiniones y que tendrá su continuación muy pronto.

The elitists, the college educated technocrats, the ideologues, our so called betters, all hate us. They've learned nothing from Trump's Landslide victory in the USA. We do not want the woke agenda of the Boots Christmas advert, uncontrolled immigration the worship of diversity in all its extremes . We do want Nigel Farage to lay a Poppy wreath and we actually agree with Jeremy Clarkson on most things. But the Establishment Elite and their chums in the Mainstream media despise us and ridicule us as they rub our noses in their warped so called progressive view of the world. We need our own Trump to fix this mess. Support me please www.buymeacoffee.com/jongaunt
Derek and Jason own many cars and once in a while, many of them break. Or receive really cool upgrades. It's time for a car-nerd fleet update! === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev See: https://www.vredestein.com/ And: https://www.radwood.com/socal-2024 === The boys start with discussing "de-advanced" ignition timing on the Rover SD1 — and Jason did his first-ever brake master cylinder rebuild. But the big issue is that Jason wants to downsize his fleet (he still has 10 cars) but loves the different experience that each car offers. The Rover has a big (ish) lazy V8 and is unlike anything else Jason has. Derek wants to be done with his Citroën CX because it sprung a hydraulic leak, but then found the Citroën community — and, hopefully, someone to work on it. And so maybe it'll stay. Thanks to Derek's guilt, 9 of Jason's cars have fresh brake fluid — which doesn't seem like a big deal, but doing 9 brake-fluid bleeds is time consuming. And worse, Jason discovered that his E30 Touring still had ATE Super Blue in his car. Which confirms that it was at least a decade old. Derek's Porsche 944 no longer has a 14-year-old timing belt, which means it can be driven to Radwood SoCal (hopefully on new Vredestein tires, no less!) Jason and Derek talk about today's ridiculous trend of people changing timing belts at 3, 4, or 5 years, with no mileage on them. This is an epidemic in the Ferrari community — when mechanics happily double the recommended replacement interval. Jason has been suspecting that his VW Cabriolet is suffering from SMS: the dreaded transmission self-machining syndrome that kills many 020 transmissions. But after some exploratory surgery, it really now seems like a bad wheel bearing. That would figure, since Beatrice the E30 (the 1989 325i) also needs a wheel bearing after completing a track day (with Randy Pobst as an instructor on Sonoma Raceway.) These tend to come in pairs. Just not on different cars! Derek suspects his S124 E320 wagon (with the dogleg 5-speed and 3.6-liter swap) has bad wheel bearings, too. More urgently, Derek is having a Motronic Month: he's finally troubleshooted some strange running on his Porsche 964, which has gotten progressively worse over the last decade. He also found that one ignition module had failed, so it was running on half of its spark plugs. A new idle control valve didn't fix it, but swapping a DME (engine computer, or ECU in non-Porsche speak) from his dad's 964 fixed everything. Jason's buddy's 993 is doing the same thing — so Derek might have just inadvertently found that car's problem. Jason had never heard of rebuilding an ECU (except on Honda Beats) but thats' it. Jason's cars mostly don't have DMEs, and he's been fighting with ignition timing on both of his 16-valve Volkswagens (the Scirocco and Cabriolet) and wonders if he just should upgrade all the old cars to a Holley EFI or Megasquirt. Derek found a hard top for his R129 Mercedes SL, in Florida, but shipping was too expensive. So he found a local one in the wrong color . Jason has once done that, with the wrong color hardtop on his 996 for track use, and Derek also bought a very expensive new softtop for that SL. RIP by the way to Bruno Sacco, to Mike Valentine, and almost to Jeremy Clarkson. The R129 SL500 / 500SL is the best deal in the collector-car world, period. Jason did another (for a total of three) Power Acoustic CP-71W Single-DIN wireless Apple CarPlay head unit. He loves them. And that's before the $140 (+ tax) pricing. Except that he won't put one in the Mercedes 190E 2.3-16 because the Becker is too iconic. Or the Beat, because of the Gathers (Honda) head unit in there. Or the e31 850CSi. Continental and Blaupunkt make retro-looking radios, but Becker's original units can be retrofitted with Bluetooth or Aux In. Porsche Classic PCM unit is amazing, but it's far too expensive for non-Porsches. Says Jason. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Three cars have caused Jason a journalistic existential crisis: the Alfa Romeo Tonale, the Tesla Cybertruck, and the Tesla Model 3 Performance. Two of them have nothing to do with the cars, and everything to do with the internet backlash from passionate enthusiasts. It's war out there. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev Jason's Hoodie & Merch: https://closed-course-productions.printify.me/ === The Carmudgeon Show has a new studio! (Or at least a new look.) But back to the cars: All of the innovation in the car industry these days is happening at the nontraditional OEMs. Which necessarily means that all of the interesting stories are about EVs. And yet every time Jason does a review of an EV, it incites an online war between EV fans and ICE fans. And when Telsa's passionate fans and detractors become involved on X (formerly known as Twitter) it gets personal. Suddenly, Jason is vilified and "loses his credibility." This reality has caused Jason to take a serious look at the possibility of no longer reviewing new cars. He wonders if his personal interest in them is too small to put up with the backlash — and maybe he should concentrate on the older cars he loves more? On the other hand, is that letting the armchair warriors win? Perhaps. But the larger trend, as Jeremy Clarkson pointed out recently, is that new cars are shit. And it was the Alfa Romeo Tonale that highlighted Jason's concerns. Not because it's a bad car — it's not — but Jason had a hard time getting excited about a 1.3-liter PHEV compact SUV with an Alfa Romeo badge on it. It has none of the qualities he likes in cars. And specifically none of the qualities (other than gorgeous green paint) that he feels are appropriate for a brand like Alfa Romeo.
