Podcasts about Kill Your Darlings

In this episode of Supergirl Radio, Morgan Glennon and Rebecca Johnson discuss and review Supergirl: Survive (2026-) #1! Issue Description: Kara Zor-El lives a life of small problems. How are you supposed to hold a floppy little baby like her new cousin Kal? Who should she ask to the spring formal? And when will her father and her uncle Jor-El stop squabbling? But the planet Krypton has big problems…like the militaristic dictator Zod ruthlessly crushing dissent and threatening to unleash the planet's most dangerous weapons on the opposition. And when things boil over and Krypton begins to burn, Kara and her infant cousin will find themselves trapped together in a prototype rocket, struggling to survive in a hostile universe that doesn't care if they live or die…and which might prefer the latter! Breakout writers Ethan Parker and Griffin Sheridan (Eisner Award nominee Kill Your Darlings) join visionary artist Rod Reis (New Mutants) to tell the story of teenage Kara and infant Kal, sent on their journey through the stars together, not apart…that is, as long as Kara can keep him alive!

THE EPIC BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE WIZARDING WORLD IS HERE! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 (2010) Full Movie Reaction & Review with Roxy Striar and Jon Maturan! Harry Potter Part 1 Full Movie Uncut Watch-Along:   / thereelrejects   Check out the DC Studios: Showcase Podcast HERE https://app.magellan.ai/listen_links/... Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this highly anticipated movie review and reaction, Roxy and Jon conquer an incredibly emotional and high-stakes rewatch of David Yates' atmospheric fantasy masterpiece, checking out how it brilliantly sets the stage for the ultimate battle against the dark arts. We unpack the powerful dramatic performances of the legendary main trio, starring Daniel Radcliffe (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, Kill Your Darlings) bringing immense weight to the screen as a heavily targeted Harry Potter, Emma Watson (Beauty and the Beast, The Perks of Being a Wallflower) delivering pure heart and intellect as Hermione Granger, and Rupert Grint (Knock at the Cabin, Servant) portraying the emotional friction and loyalty of Ron Weasley. We also break down the phenomenal ensemble work from Ralph Fiennes (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Schindler's List) as the terrifyingly dark Lord Voldemort, Helena Bonham Carter (Sweeney Todd, The King's Speech) as the chaotic Bellatrix Lestrange, and Tom Felton (Rise of the Planet of the Apes) as the conflicted Draco Malfoy. Our hosts react to every single iconic visual setpiece, heartbreaking loss, and mythos-expanding sequence this adaptation has to offer. We break down the massive suspense of the opening "Seven Potters" aerial escape sequence, the sheer terror of the Ministry of Magic infiltration under polyjuice disguise, and the jaw-dropping, stylized animated sequence explaining "The Tale of the Three Brothers" and the origin of the Deathly Hallows. From the tense, Horcrux-induced emotional rift that temporarily tears the trio apart in the desolate woods to the absolutely devastating, tear-jerking tragedy of Dobby the House-Elf's ultimate sacrifice at Malfoy Manor, Roxy and Jon dive deep into why this specific film perfectly captures the isolating dread of war.

Je kent het wel. Dat ene beeld waar je zó aan gehecht bent… maar dat gewoon niet werkt in de serie. Of dat net niet past bij het verhaal dat je wil vertellen. Kill your darlings – het klinkt wreed, en dat is het ook. In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over selecteren: misschien wel het moeilijkste onderdeel van fotograaf zijn.Welke foto's laat je zien? Voor wie zijn ze bedoeld? En hoe bepaal je wat blijft en wat sneuvelt? We bespreken onze eigen worstelingen met fotoselectie, het verschil tussen foto's voor Instagram, portfolio's of een tentoonstelling, en waarom je soms juist je lievelingsfoto moet schrappen om sterker te worden.

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Robin Whitten discuss Peter Swanson's intriguing mystery, superbly delivered by Steven Weber. The audiobook's structure goes backwards from 2023 to 1982—telling a story that's like a giant jigsaw puzzle. Thom and Wendy Graves have been married for 25 years. When Wendy discovers Thom is about to reveal a terrible secret, she decides she must kill him. With timing, keen sensibilities, and touches of dramatic irony, Weber makes each important moment in the couple's lives as real as the moment before. A clever premise does not disappoint, and Weber's performance makes it even better.  Read our review of the audiobook at our website Published by Harper Audio Discover thousands of audiobook reviews and more at AudioFile's website Support for Behind the Mic comes from Hachette Audio and NIGHT WATCHER, by Daphne Woolsoncroft (of the Going West podcast), who read an audio-exclusive author's note before the stunning dual-narration by Will Collyer and Helen Laser.

This week, Sam is back from Iceland, where he read some Scandinavian literature and visited a bookstore, though mostly just looked at volcanoes, waterfalls, and icebergs. But, have no fear, we have plenty of books to talk about this week.  On the agenda this week: - "The Salt Stones," by Helen Whybrow, which is a memoir about leaving publishing to become a shepherdess in Vermont. Sheep! Hannah loves it.  - "Blood Ties," by Jo Nesbo, which is not a Harry Hole novel, but is rather a standalone about brothers who love each other, but also are trying to kill each other. Sam's not sure about the "moral dilemmas" it presents.  - "Kill Your Darlings," by Peter Swanson, which tells the story of a marriage in reverse, starting with a wife who'd really like to kill her husband. But why? Peter's a local and does great work here.  - "Until Alison," by Kate Russo, which is set at Colby College, where Kate went, and deals with a murder of a Colby student, which happened by Kate was at Colby, but is otherwise totally fiction. It's a little cartoonish.  - "Mohawk," by Richard Russo, which is actually more similar than Sam was expecting. It's ALSO a little cartoonish while trying to do "small-town life." Sam doesn't believe it. But lots of stories are more lively than boring real life.  - "All the Beauty in the World," by Patrick Bringley, which is another memoir, but gives you a ton of cool info about working at the Met in New York City and fits nicely in the pantheon of museum guard books. Also, this gets Sam talking about "The Clock," a piece of art by Christian Marclay that is completely amazing and you need to see.

Fellow North Shore friend, Peter Swanson has done it again with Kill Your Darlings! A twisty thriller centered around a dark and spiraling marriage all told in the most clever way only Swanson could do. I was so thrilled to welcome him back to Books are Chic. I love chatting with him to hear about his writing process and inspiration. His books always have me flipping the pages wondering where he is taking the reader. He talked about his future projects and what he has been reading and watching! This book is not to be missed in your beach bag! P.S. Don't miss out on The Kind Worth Killing too, I mention that one A LOT in this episode. :)

KILL YOUR DARLINGS (William Morrow; June 10, 2025) is New York Times bestselling author PETER SWANSON's most ambitious novel yet. The book marries an evergreen hook—a terrible secret unravels a marriage—to a one-of-a-kind structure: this is a thriller told in reverse. Swanson—a “master of suspense” (Crimereads) who specializes in psychological thrillers that subvert expectations—“never disappoints” (NPR). Critics call his novels “ingenious” and “devious” (New York Times Book Review), “inventive” (Wall Street Journal), “complex, twist-filled” (the Associated Press), and “so ruthlessly clever it's criminal” (Entertainment Weekly).  If you haven't yet jumped on the Peter Swanson bandwagon, now is the time. KILL YOUR DARLINGS is poised to be the breakout thriller of the summer. A terrible act binds a husband and wife to one another forever. But when the marriage goes south, how far will each of them go to protect their secrets? Smart, unique, and unnerving, KILL YOUR DARLINGS is the latest incredible read from Peter Swanson.

The phrase “Kill Your Darlings,” attributed to writer William Faulkner, is a piece of advice given to authors that suggests cutting the parts of a story or novel that they love the most. The idea is that these "darlings" often hinder the overall flow, clarity, or effectiveness of the piece. In a business context, the concept translates well. We often hold on to projects, products, or services that we're emotionally attached to, despite evidence that they may be draining resources or no longer serving the overall goals of the company. When I looked at the bigger picture, I realized that while the Full Funnel Freedom show had been incredibly valuable and rewarding, it wasn't helping me move toward my ultimate goal—helping my clients scale their sales and achieve their ideal exits. To focus more effectively on supporting them, I made the tough decision to “kill my darling” and end the podcast. Letting go of something I've invested in emotionally and professionally wasn't easy, but it was necessary to free up time and energy for the things that will drive my business and clients forward. It's a reminder that sometimes, even our most cherished projects can hold us back from what really matters. What you'll learn: How do you identify which projects or services are no longer serving your long-term goals? What is the process for evaluating the value versus the burden of current business offerings? How can the “Kill Your Darlings” mindset help leaders make tough but necessary decisions for growth?   Thank you for listening. ---   Connect with Hamish on LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/hamishknox/ Meet Hamish at a Sandler Summit: https://www.hamish.sandler.com/orlando Fathom: https://fathom.video/invite/72CZPA Humanic: https://app.humantic.ai/login/?referral_code=HamishKnox_SA

Just My Imagination. In this episode, we read Eugene Peterson's book, Under the Unpredictable Plant, and discuss theological imagination at length. What are the consequences when the church takes its cues from a culture with no imagination? Can Christians tell biblical stories without a theological imagination? What happens when the earthly and heavenly are divided by a lack of imagination into merely rationalized explanations?

Ben Foster was 14 years old and when he had what he calls a breakdown. Ben had a moment while acting where he completely lost himself and he needed to get back to that place at all costs. Marc talks with Ben about how he chased that feeling from the set of a Disney Channel sitcom into dramatic work in movies like Hell or High Water and Kill Your Darlings, where his commitment to the role is never in question. They also get into his two most recent performances in The Survivor and Emancipation, where he felt a deep responsibility in depicting both the victim and perpetrator of human atrocities.
