In our world, love rules.It is the highest attribute, with fundamental characteristics of all humankind.Perhaps the finest expression of love is:MOTHER LOVEThe definition of mother, a real mother is simply put:LOVEA mother's love is the ultimate human love.It is said that THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE RULES THE WORLD. Perhaps so because so much of a child is formed in the early years by mother. One is in life so much of what a mother was. A real mother is part of the life of a child forever. What we learn at mother's knee is so often what we are. Her values become ours. We are HER.The egg of a woman is the source of all life, the fundamental stuff of the universe and when fertilized by the sperm of the male:LIFEThe most precious thing of all happens. The egg and the sperm unite and become one, but it is:GODwho gives life. At that very moment of conception, the life of a HUMAN BEING begins.That life is not a mere collection of cells as one biologist so flippantly said, but in reality, the first moments of the life of a human being, a child on the grow in the womb. That fertilized egg is a BABY. So much for abortion, which is nothing more than murder of that baby at any stage in the womb.And so the mother begins mothering, and the baby grows. The enriched womb of the mother nourishes and cherishes the baby, sensitive to every need. The morning sickness is a small price to pay for the life within. Moods and diets may change as the womb grows large and beautiful. It is really wondrous to behold the change of mother in the making with that womb at work.It is marvelous indeed to touch the nine month home of that child. The ear presses down, hoping to hear any sound from the baby. Touching, hearing, kissing, and sensing life at work are really more important than any ultrasound. God at work through Mother Nature creating life is wondrous, even miraculous.Some today are actually privileged to see the baby born. Out of the womb comes a bundle of joy, of life and yet another miracle happens. The pain of childbirth is so well worth the end result. Perhaps it is the most loving moment, the ultimate loving moment when brand new baby lays firm on mother's breasts. Having seen that, how I wonder could any potential mother abort, kill her very own child? To do so is to abort a miracle.Early on, it is the still, small voice of the mother which is perhaps the greatest teacher in life. We the infants hear that voice and remember what the voice of our mother sounds like and says for a lifetime. We do so consciously and perhaps even more importantly subconsciously. That loving voice in many ways is angelic, the early words of love. They come with touch, and they are spiritual, psychological, character forming and building. The love of a mother is every bit as important as food itself. So, in a sense, these early words are eternal for they train up the child in the way the mother wishes the child to go and to grow is not to depart from the right ways of the mother.The words of a mother to her child are melodic, soothing, comforting. They support, encourage and they make a child feel safe. A mother touches, hugs, strokes, talks and sings to her baby, episodes never to be forgotten. When all else fails and all others as well, a truly loving mother never does. She is forever, eternal.A loving mother is kind. In a world rough and confrontational, the kindness of the mother is a most necessary characteristic.A loving mother is never jealous, never envious, always willing to put the child first, in love. A real loving mother is proud of her child no matter what the child becomes.Motherly love is always positive, not negative. It looks for the best, the good and the right. But the mother renders discipline when things are wrong. The love of a real mother is tough love. That love has standards, clear, straight and simply and lovingly communicated. Real love is without compromise. A loving mother never bargains with a child.A mother explains and answers perhaps better than any teacher, helping a child to understand. A mother stretches but never pushes knowing that her child must be challenged in order to grow. There is always demand and discipline from the right mother, both easy to implement when the child knows he or she is:LOVEDA loving, Godly mother makes certain her child understands her standards and values and those of God as well.A loving Godly mother teaches the child the things of her Lord. Train up that child in the ways of faith, of Christian faith, the faith of the mother. There is no better witness for the child than a loving Christian mother, living life by those standards and the child along with her. That is faith with works, the best kind.A real loving mother gives time, quality time to the child. There is for mother and child that quality time to talk and much more importantly, and especially for mother, to:LISTENIn an age of cell phones, babysitters, fast foods, carpools and demanding social life, all of that and everything else should never, ever interfere with quality time spent by the mother with child. Truly listening, and touching, and hugging, and encouraging, respecting the child produces some of life's finest lessons. Those bonding moments are, as one psychologist has well said:PEAK MOMENTSNever to be forgotten by either. Patient, kind and understanding. Truly interested in the life of a child, not superficially so. Perhaps that is why so many mothers wished more than ever, so we are told, to stay home, build that home for husband and child and all children and to spend full time training up that child in the way in which he should go. That is what mothers are for and no other job can ever come close to that incredible responsibility and opportunity.No matter the love, child rearing is work, and hard work. It demands the time of the mother at all times. The real needs of a young child are great and they demand full time, mother always on the ready. How beautiful it is for father and husband to watch the baby breastfeed. How beautiful to see mother and child so intimately and sensitively connected. There is special nourishment from the milk of the breast but there is also the psychological nourishment, the nourishment of love and bonding, one with each other, the young and often subconscious memories lasting for a lifetime. A mother's touch, feel and taste are vitally important to the growth of the child.Some mothers homeschool. They want to train up that child in the right ways themselves. Others work to send the child to special schools, private schools or schools of faith. Loving mothers are more than willing to sacrifice to accomplish the right objectives for the child they love.And all the while, a mother encourages the love of a father for child and the child for the father. There is respect, as important as love, between mother and father, husband and wife. There is a sense of equality as both parents love their child in different ways. Perhaps the love of a father for a child is different but as the child grows and matures, the love, the real love of a real father becomes as important to the child as that of the mother. Without both loves, something fundamental is missing.So that, when a child is ready for the world, and independence, and a life for itself, both loving parents have formed the young adult and are ready proudly so to watch a brand new life unfold. They have earned, these loving parents have, the right to be proud parents.Small wonder that loving children love to give back. There comes a time when the priorities are reversed and the child becomes the support, the loving support of the parents. Loving children love to give back to loving parents. That love which began in the womb is eternal. It never fails. It outlasts faith, and hope and all the wisdom and riches of the world. It endures forever even as the love of Christ does.And so it is with the deepest admiration, respect and love that we, all of us at Crawford Broadcasting Company, salute all real loving mothers on Mother's Day and all year long. If you are a loving mother:YOU ARE SPECIALThere is one day set aside to honor loving mothers which in reality should be done every day of the year. We are admonished, commanded to:HONOR OUR FATHER AND MOTHERIt is a commandment that we honor real loving parents with our love and respect. Give back the love you owe to your mother. Give it back with tears, with laughter and with joy. With gratitude and thanksgiving for all that she has done for you. Let her know how much you love and appreciate her, knowing as you do that you can never repay the loving debt you owe. No child can ever give back all that he or she has gotten. Never.If she is here, make sure she gets what she deserves. There are so many mothers, like mine, not here. My mother is with her Lord as she has been for more than a quarter century. How much I would love the opportunity to give her one more hug. Do that for yours while you can.We salute you and thank you, mother. There is really nothing like you in this world:NOTHING!

It's the first installment of The Fear of God: Ghoul Scouts Edition! This week, Reed and Nathan are lost in the shadows as Vera Goudie and Jess Fischli take over the show with a discussion of the infamous thriller from Karyn Kusama and writer Diablo Cody: JENNIFER'S BODY.Starring Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, Jennifer's Body tells a subversive and darkly comic tale of codependency, possession, and good, old-fashioned revenge. The film, originally pitched to audiences as a kind of feminine slasher, is a far more interesting and layered piece than its first audiences recognized.Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a lively and thoughtful discussion that we really hope you enjoy!Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?3:23 - JENNIFER'S BODYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Easily one of the most unconventional films of last year was the French throwback to folk horror tales of the 1970s: THE VOURDALAK. Set in the 18th century, it follows a Marquis who becomes displaced after being robbed and finds his way to the shelter of a strange family. To say too much more would be to rob this unique, surprising, and disarmingly potent film of its fun -- and its terror. It features a vintage aesthetic, outstanding performances, and a monster that will absolutely not be what you're expecting.It also features some profound observations about the insidious nature of power pursuits, the creeping dread of control that pretends to be love, and the necessity of remembering our capacity to change. It's also a fun, gory chiller perfect for a dark and stormy night. We're joined by author and friend of the show Sarah Welch-Larson for a lively and thoughtful conversation that we really hope you enjoy.Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To8:30 - THE VOURDALAKSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We continue our look back at some of the most interesting horror films of 2024 by examining a haunting, dread-soaked thriller from Oz Perkins, LONGLEGS. Starring Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage (in a completely unhinged performance), Longlegs tells the story of an FBI agent in the mid-90s investigating a series of murders that all appear to be connected to someone who wasn't even there when they happened. We're joined by friends of the show Matt Ruff and Blake Collier, as well as first-time guest Scott Tynes-Miller to discuss the differing experiences with this film, its myriad of theological and sociological interests, and our varied interpretations of its haunting ending.Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a hearty and thoughtful conversation that we really hope you enjoy.Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?5:40 - Troubadour Booksellers15:49 - LONGLEGSSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to 2025 everyone! We are kicking things off with a couple of big announcements, a few special guests, and an over-sized episode about one of the most fascinating horror films of the last few years: Coralie Fargeat's THE SUBSTANCE. Starring Demi Moore in possibly a career-best performance, The Substance is about an aging fitness starlet who takes an experimental drug to create a younger, "better" version of herself. Things do not go according to plan.At its heart, The Substance is a bold, exceptionally crafted exploration of cultural stigma around aging and appearance. But along the way, it has some profound observations to make about our relationships with ourselves and the ways our perceptions of our bodies can lead us down dark and destructive paths. We're joined by friends of the show Vera Goudie, Jess Fischli, and Jocee Worley for a vulnerable, thoughtful, and occasionally hilarious discussion about the multitude of fascinating things this film has on its mind.Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a hearty and heartfelt conversation that we really hope you'll enjoy.5:24 - A Few Brief AnnouncementsPatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?12:41 - THE SUBSTANCEFind Reed and Tyler's book Valley of the Shadow: The Spiritual Value of Horror here.

In this episode we listen back to some of our highlights from the year including chats about joy among Queer People of Colour in Ireland today, Nell McCafferty and her legacy, trans joy and much more.

Before we draw our slate of 2024 episodes to a close, we wanted to highlight a creepy, atmospheric chiller from Damien McCarthy called ODDITY. Intimate in scope but provocative in its implications, Oddity takes some familiar elements and configures them in decisively unconventional ways. It's a revenge thriller, it's a murder mystery, it's a ghost story, it's a haunted house tale, it's a witchy-golem-slasher-cannibal monster movie, and most of all it's a fascinating creeper. Anchored by strong performances and a sharp script, it subverts expectations and has a unique power to linger with you even after it has finished.We're joined by Gorey Gamer Matt Murray for a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment and to discuss all things Oddity.

We close down our march through a handful of recent Dracula-inspired films by taking a look at last year's RENFIELD. Starring Nicholas Hoult and Akwafina, Renfield is an energetic, humorous, and remarkably thoughtful take on codependency, oppressive relationships, and rampant injustice. Oh.... and Nic Cage plays Dracula.We're joined this week by FoGers and friends, Vera Goudie and John Viinalass to unpack all the mayhem, all the laughs, and the disarming amount of depth this film carries with it.

In this special live episode of ListenIn, Ruadhán Ó Críodáin, Executive Director of ShoutOut, sits down with Jenny Maguire, Dr. Matt Kennedy, and SexyTadhg for a chat at the Irish Museum of Modern Art. Together, they share their personal journeys, discuss what it means to embrace their authentic selves, and highlight the people, places, and moments that bring them joy. Big shout out to IMMA for all their support and help when preparing for this event. Their space was perfect for the energy the Shout Out team wanted to create for the panel discussion.

We kick off a brand new mini-series this week all about the most infamous bloodsucker in all of culture. Earlier this year, we drilled down on some recent films which were inspired by Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein. Coincidentally, the same thing has been happening with Bram Stoker's original classic vampire tale, inspiring a handful of films in the last year or two based upon different aspects of the Dracula story.So we start this series with a direct adaptation, one which forever influenced the way vampires were depicted in pop culture entirely. 1992's BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, is a lush and excessive production full of gothic grandeur and theatricality. It features incredible performances from Gary Oldman and Anthony Hopkins and a script which drills in on the concept of lost love, abandonment of faith, and the nature of appetite and longing. We're joined this week by fellow film critic and host of the "1 of my Stories" podcast, Lindsey Dunn, to discuss the film's rich tapestry of religious symbolism, desperate romance, and -- of course -- bloodsucking vampires.Also featuring a Patron-only segment where we catch up on our "Whatchas", this is a fun and hearty episode that we really hope you enjoy.6:24 - Getting to Know Lindsey DunnPatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?15:52 - BRAM STOKER'S DRACULASee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In October of 2019, we covered this horror sci-fi landmark as part of our #ilovethe70s series. This week, we're revisiting it as part of our tribute to the late Donald Sutherland. This time around, we've invited two friends of the show: bestselling author Matt Ruff and Gorey Gamer Matt Murray. We all have a tremendous amount of positive things to say about this excellent film that explores paranoia, humanity, and societal destabilization.

Have we got a fun episode for you this week! SHADOW IN THE CLOUD from 2020 is part claustrophobic radio play, part creature-feature, part war movie, and part absolutely bananas-bonkers action fantasy. Chloe Grace-Moretz stars as a WWII gunner who boards a plane under top secret orders with some top secret cargo, only to discover mid-flight that the plane is under attack from a malevolent creature. We're joined this week by Vera Goudie, Jess Fischli, and Jocee Worley for a very lively debate about the film's merit, its message, and its manic, absurdist energy. Our individual opinions vary wildly on this film, but also guide us into a thoughtful reflection on the spectrum of perspectives in all walks of life, and provides a fascinating opportunity to make room for approaches and responses that differ greatly from our own.Also featuring a Patron-Only Whatcha segment, we hope you enjoy hearing this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it.Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?4:42 - SHADOW IN THE CLOUDPlease note -- this conversation features a good bit of salty language.

We continue our series called #Franklymydear on films inspired by Mary Shelley's classic novel Frankenstein with our penultimate installment. This week we're examining an independent production filmed right in one of our guest's backyard. THE ANGRY BLACK GIRL AND HER MONSTER delivers a smart and disarmingly thoughtful approach to the Frankenstein scenario, repositioning the narrative in the modern, rural south and tackling some pretty heavy themes. It follows Vicaria, a brilliant young student who theorizes that death is merely a disease awaiting a cure. When she resurrects her brother following his untimely death, she unknowingly releases a horror upon the community, although it is not immediately the horror you might imagine. The film is a compelling portrait of the power of identity in the face of systemic obstacles and systemic abuses that -- despite its heavy subject -- leaves a remarkably hopeful statement with us.We're joined by new FoGger Chris Clark and Quarterly Queen Jess Fischli to discuss this impressive film as well as for a Patron-only segment of "Whatcha"s.

We continue our mini-series #Franklymydear which examines horror films inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with a very recent film from this year. LISA FRANKENSTEIN is the feature debut of Zelda Williams and was written by Diablo Cody. It features a very 80s aesthetic and a darkly comic story of death, resurrection, murder, and how difficult it is to be a teenager. We debate the film's effectiveness and unpack some of our own personal difficulties with finding out how we fit in with a world that is rarely easy and doesn't always seem to want us.Also featuring a Patron-only Whatcha Watchin', Readin', and Listenin' segment, we hope you enjoy this week's stroll through the graveyard!Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?3:36 - LISA FRANKENSTEINSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As an epilogue to our look back series on some of the most noteworthy horror films of 2023, we ventured into the largely dialogue-free, alien-infested world of the Hulu thriller NO ONE WILL SAVE YOU. Joined by Quarterly King Ian Olson, this is one of our more heavily debated films, as opinions widely vary between the three of us on what this film is trying to say and whether or not it succeeds at what it's aiming for. What emerges is an investigation of the desire to be redeemed, and how the hand offering us salvation may not always put us in the place we truly longed for.Featuring a Patron-only segment detailing some fun "Whatcha"s of late, this is a strong conversation that we really hope you enjoy!Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?3:52 - NO ONE WILL SAVE YOUSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Or can only travel from certain points on mapThe game's map is an in-game object and doesn't pauseNo pause option in generalPenalty for death - lost progress, maybe the game even becomes harderFinishing a mission requires extraction, waiting, defendingYou can't save just anywhere, or have a limited number of savesLoot and upgrades don't unlock unless you complete the missionQuests are complex and require a lot of micro-managing or specific stepsCrafting and other similar activities require in-game actions or specific locationsOften referred to as “Player Friendly/Unfriendliness”Informational Friction: Relating to what the game does/doesn't tell youThe game doesn't tell you what you're supposed to do nextThe game doesn't spell out for you what's going on with the story and leaves it for you to figure out (Narrative Friction)There are a lot of concepts, mechanics, or rules to keep track of or understand (Conceptual Friction)The game's map doesn't tell you very much, or the game has no map (Navigational Friction)Branching narratives aren't signposted, little or no warning for consequential decisionsThe interface is opaque or requires a lot of inputs to useYou don't get notifications about status effects in the HUD, you have to look at your character (general world > hud approach)The game has hidden systems that you have to learn about via word of mouth or experimentation (e.g. If you want to explore the castle without getting arrested, wear the guard armor to blend in. If you die, your world becomes steadily darker. This guy will kill your NPCs, but there's an elaborate hidden spell to revive them.

Before we dive into our holiday seasonal series, we're taking a stopover at a film directly suggested by one of our Patrons during last year's FoGgoween party. LIGHTS OUT began as an award winning viral short film that packed an unforgettable punch. In 2016, the film was given the feature treatment, delivering most of the same thrills and scares but with a controversially problematic conclusion. With Reed absent this week (for real this time), Nathan is joined by Quarterly Queens Jess Fischli and Vera Goudie to discuss all there is to praise and caution about this fascinating film.Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a brisk and high-energy conversation we really hope you enjoy.1:55 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?4:29 - LIGHTS OUTSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join us for a very spooky episode! Our guest, Dixon Palmer, invited us out to his land at Redstone in Anadarko, Oklahoma to record a Halloween spooktacular! We weave webs of horror and mystery on subjects such as ghosts, spirits, aliens and ufo's, Bigfoot, little people, and so much more! We also discuss the new movie Killers of the Flower Moon and its impact on on pop culture and society as a whole. But, that's not all, we also tell stories about our kids' bowel movements, the Nutty Putty Cave Incident, and Kevin Costner diving headfirst into some booty. All this and more on this very SPOOKY episode of The DodgeCast!

Taking a break from our series format, we're excited to bring you another #FoGgoweener: one-off episodes based on media that was recommended to us by our Patrons during our annual FoGgoween party. This week's entry is the indie vampire road movie, STAKE LAND, recommended to us by Continuity Guru Steve Beckley, who also guests with us for the conversation.Stake Land takes a melancholy and thoughtful approach to its subject, delivering an occasionally horrific and just as often profound exploration of how both civilization and individuals change when the societal structures break down. It's also impressively insightful in its handling of politics, religion, violence, and hope, making it a real hidden gem for fans of our show.Also featuring a Patron-only segment of Whatchas, this is an energizing conversation that we really hope you enjoy.3:41 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?6:09 - STAKE LANDSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

For the past couple of months (with a brief intermission through folk horror), we've been working our way through the film catalogue of M Night Shyamalan. The landmark successes, the mind-boggling disappointments, the polarizing visions, and -- of course -- all the twists got the Fear of God treatment in individual episodes. Now, we come to the grand finale, a hearty discussion breaking down the highs, the lows, and the memories we made along the way.Presented for you is our definitive exploration of the unique director's two and a half decade career. Kick back, pour yourself a drink (hopefully not contaminated), and enjoy the journey as we conclude #Shyamalamarama and do the twist one more time.We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed discussing it!2:15 - Business Time (It's our Seventh Anniversary!!)Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?11:19 - Shyamalamawrapup13:46 - How Did Our Opinions of These Films Change?21:56 - Ranking the Cameos (Shyameos) of Each Film30:47 - Reed and his son Discuss M Night Shyamalan49:19 - What Are Shyamalan's Strengths and Weaknesses?1:08:37 - Our Favorite Shyamalan Scenes1:22:08 - Nathan and his daughter Discuss M Night Shyamalan1:48:12 - What's Next for Shyamalan?

This week on the Pickathon Podcast, at the top Zale gives all sorts of shoutouts to the massive amount of talent that has graced the stages of Pickathon over the years, and the impact their success has had on the festival as a whole. Then, Zale sits down (across the ether) with the founding memeber of Hooveriii, Burt Hoover, to discuss the importance of your local library (aka record shops), and the interconnectivity of people sharing what moves them, and what new avenues they seek to venture.

We conclude our mini-series on folk horror (#whatthefolk) with a discussion of the meditative, horrific, and strangely beautiful film from last year: YOU WON'T BE ALONE. Constructed as a sequence of loosely connected vignettes (ones which involve both different characters and yet, the same character), it tells the story of a young girl who is turned into a witch at a young age and proceeds through the world with the ability to transform herself. What emerges is a deeply haunting and equally moving portrait of a "brutal and biting world", but one which may yet be navigated with grace and beauty and hope. We're joined by friend of the show and Quarterly King, Ian Olson for a heartfelt and thoughtful conversation about what it means to be in this often savage and strange world. We hope it encourages and challenges you and we hope you enjoy it.3:08 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?4:30 - Ian Olson's The Book of Common Terror15:16 - YOU WON'T BE ALONESee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We continue our series on folk horror films (#whatthefolk) with a film from South Korea and Thailand called THE MEDIUM. Recommended to us by a longtime listener during our annual FoGgoween Party, The Medium tells the harrowing story of Nim, a regional shaman blessed and inhabited by the spirit of Ba Yan to bestow blessing upon her local community. When her niece Mink begins to exhibit signs that she might be the next human vessel for the goddess, questions begin to arise about whether what is possessing her is benevolent or malicious. What follows is a haunting, captivating, and frequently disturbing story that grapples with deeply rooted questions about belief and religious practice. We dive into all of it with a lot of humor and open hearts as always.Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a conversation we thoroughly enjoyed having and we hope you enjoy it as well.2:31 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?4:38 - THE MEDIUMSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're continuing our journey through the sub genre of folk horror (#whatthefolk) with another landmark entry in the genre from 1971: THE BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW. We're joined by Continuity Guru Steven Beckley for a hearty and vibrant conversation about one of the most controversial and infamous horror films of the 1970s. While its specifics may be a bit too disjointed (and a bit too problematic) to wholly support, a surprisingly strong conversation emerges about the different ways people deal with the problem of evil, often completely ignoring their own hand in feeding it themselves.Also featuring a "Whatcha" segment for the Patrons, this is a strong conversation that we're quite proud of and hope that you enjoy.**Special note** - As with last week's film, the film in discussion contains a scene of sexual assault which is somewhat more extensive and viewer discretion is advised. Even if you choose not to watch the film, we'd encourage you to hear our thoughts about it and thank you.4:02 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?5:57 - THE BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAWSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're taking a brief intermission from our Shyamalamarama series to bring you a handful of discussions on the subgenre known as "folk horror", which we've lovingly titled #whatthefolk.We start with the 1968 film WITCHFINDER GENERAL, starring Vincent Price as the historical figure Matthew Hopkins, who executed more than 300 people for the crime of witchcraft in just under 3 years. We're joined by author and scholar Leland Merritt, whose work on folk horror and its relationship to the Hebrew Bible provides some incredible insights to both the genre and the more challenging narratives we find in the scriptures.**A special note of consideration** Although the film exercises restraint in its visual representation, it does contain instances and discussions of sexual assault. Our conversation addresses these as well as similar instances in Biblical texts and we want to give awareness for sensitive listeners. We have a very thoughtful and insightful conversation that we hope you'll hear and enjoy as always, although discretion is advised.3:36 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?5:11 - Getting to know special guest, Leland Merritt15:30 - Getting to know the Folk Horror Subgenre33:55 - WITCHFINDER GENERALSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In our world, love rules.It is the highest attribute, with fundamental characteristic of all humankind.Perhaps the finest expression of love is:MOTHER LOVEThe definition of mother, a real mother is simply put:LOVEA mother's love is the ultimate human love.It is said that THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE RULES THE WORLD. Perhaps so because so much of a child is formed in the early years by mother. One is in life so much of what a mother was. A real mother is part of the life of a child forever. What we learn at mother's knee is so often what we are. Her values become ours. We are HER.The egg of a woman is the source of all life, the fundamental stuff of the universe and when fertilized by the sperm of the male:LIFEThe most precious thing of all happens. The egg and the sperm unite and become one but it is:GODWho gives life. At that very moment of conception, the life of a HUMAN BEING begins.That life is not a mere collection of cells as one biologist so flippantly said, but in reality the first moments of the life of a human being, a child on the grow in the womb. That fertilized egg is a BABY. So much for abortion which is nothing more than murder of that baby at any stage in the womb.And so the mother begins mothering, and the baby grows. The enriched womb of the mother nourishes and cherishes the baby, sensitive to every need. The morning sickness is a small price to pay for the life within. Moods and diets may change as the womb grows large and beautiful. It is really wondrous to behold the change of mother in the making with that womb at work.It is marvelous indeed to touch the nine month home of that child. The ear presses down, hoping to hear any sound from the baby. Touching, hearing, kissing, sensing life at work are really more important than any ultrasound. God at work through Mother Nature creating life is wondrous, even miraculous.Some today are actually privileged to see the baby born. Out of the womb comes a bundle of joy, of life and yet another miracle happens. The pain of childbirth is so well worth the end result. Perhaps it is the most loving moment, the ultimate loving moment when brand new baby lays firm on mother's breasts. Having seen that, how I wonder could any potential mother abort, kill her very own child? To do so is to abort a miracle.Early on, it is the still, small voice of the mother which is perhaps the greatest teacher in life. We the infants hear that voice and remember what the voice of our mother sounds like and says for a lifetime. We do so consciously and perhaps even more importantly subconsciously. That loving voice in many ways is angelic, the early words of love. They come with touch, and they are spiritual, psychological, character forming and building. The love of a mother is every bit as important as food itself. So, in a sense, these early words are eternal for they train up the child in the way the mother wishes the child to go and to grow is not to depart from the right ways of the mother.The words of a mother to her child are melodic, soothing, comforting. They support, encourage and they make a child feel safe. A mother touches, hugs, strokes, talks and sings to her baby, episodes never to be forgotten. When all else fails and all others as well, a truly loving mother never does. She is forever, eternal.A loving mother is kind. In a world rough and confrontational, the kindness of the mother is a most necessary characteristic.A loving mother is never jealous, never envious, always willing to put the child first, in love. A real loving mother is proud of her child no matter what the child becomes.Motherly love is always positive, not negative. It looks for the best, the good and the right. But the mother renders discipline when things are wrong. The love of a real mother is tough love. That love has standards, clear, straight and simply and lovingly communicated. Real love is without compromise. A loving mother never bargains with a child.A mother explains and answers perhaps better than any teacher, helping a child to understand. A mother stretches but never pushes knowing that her child must be challenged in order to grow. There is always demand and discipline from the right mother, both easy to implement when the child knows he or she is:LOVED A loving, Godly mother makes certain her child understands her standards and values and those of God as well.A loving Godly mother teaches the child the things of her Lord. Train up that child in the ways of faith, of Christian faith, the faith of the mother. There is no better witness for the child than a loving Christian mother, living life by those standards and the child along with her. That is faith with works, the best kind.A real loving mother gives time, quality time to the child. There is for mother and child that quality time to talk and much more importantly, and especially for mother, to:LISTENIn an age of cell phones, babysitters, fast foods, carpools and demanding social life, all of that and everything else should never, ever interfere with quality time spent by the mother with child. Truly listening, and touching, and hugging, and encouraging, respecting the child produces some of life's finest lessons. Those bonding moments are, as one psychologist has well said:PEAK MOMENTSNever to be forgotten by either. Patient, kind and understanding. Truly interested in the life of a child, not superficially so. Perhaps that is why so many mothers wished more than ever, so we are told, to stay home, build that home for husband and child and all children and to spend full time training up that child in the way in which he should go. That is what mothers are for and no other job can ever come close to that incredible responsibility and opportunity.No matter the love, child rearing is work, and hard work. It demands the time of the mother at all times. The real needs of a young child are great and they demand full time, mother always on the ready. How beautiful it is for father and husband to watch the baby breastfeed. How beautiful to see mother and child so intimately and sensitively connected. There is special nourishment from the milk of the breast but there is also the psychological nourishment, the nourishment of love and bonding, one with each other, the young and often subconscious memories lasting for a lifetime. A mother's touch, feel and taste are vitally important to the growth of the child.Some mothers homeschool. They want to train up that child in the right ways themselves. Others work to send the child to special schools, private schools or schools of faith. Loving mothers are more than willing to sacrifice to accomplish the right objectives for the child they love.And all the while, a mother encourages the love of a father for child and the child for the father. There is respect, as important as love, between mother and father, husband and wife. There is a sense of equality as both parents love their child in different ways. Perhaps the love of a father for a child is different but as the child grows and matures, the love, the real love of a real father becomes as important to the child as that of the mother. Without both loves, something fundamental is missing. So that, when a child is ready for the world, and independence, and a life for itself, both loving parents have formed the young adult and are ready proudly so to watch a brand new life unfold. They have earned, these loving parents have, the right to be proud parents.Small wonder that loving children love to give back. There comes a time when the priorities are reversed and the child becomes the support, the loving support of the parents. Loving children love to give back to loving parents. That love which began in the womb is eternal. It never fails. It outlasts faith, and hope and all the wisdom and riches of the world. It endures forever even as the love of Christ does.And so it is with the deepest admiration, respect and love that we, all of us at Crawford Broadcasting Company, salute all real loving mothers on Mother's Day and all year long. If you are a loving mother:YOU ARE SPECIALThere is one day set aside to honor loving mothers which in reality should be done every day of the year. We are admonished, commanded to:HONOR OUR FATHER AND MOTHERIt is a commandment that we honor real loving parents with our love and respect. Give back the love you owe to your mother. Give it back with tears, with laughter and with joy. With gratitude and thanksgiving for all that she has done for you. Let her know how much you love and appreciate her, knowing as you do that you can never repay the loving debt you owe. No child can ever give back all that he or she has gotten. Never.If she is here, make sure she gets what she deserves. There are so many mothers, like mine, not here. My mother is with her Lord as she has been for more than a quarter century. How much I would love the opportunity to give her one more hug. Do that for yours while you can.We salute you and thank you, mother. There is really nothing like you in this world:NOTHING!

We're setting a new precedent this week, starting a new recurring series of sorts. In between major tentpole series we have, we'll be occasionally re-introducing the one-off conversation about films which interest or excite us that don't easily fit elsewhere. This week, we're starting that trend with a Japanese language gem called One Cut of the Dead.If you've never heard of this delightful little zombie film, we URGE you -- with emphasis we don't always give -- to please seek out the movie and watch it before our conversation. Its surprises deserve to remain surprises and we think you'll be very happy at having watched this unique and uncommonly good-natured take on the zombie genre.To say more would be to ruin the fun, so check out the movie, then come check out our chat on it and we hope you enjoy both!3:05 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?8:36 - ONE CUT OF THE DEADSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Continuing our series looking back at some of the best horror of 2022, #2022.2, we're heading all the way back to the 800's for visionary director Robert Eggers' intensely immersive Norse epic: THE NORTHMAN. Joining us in this quest for Valholl is friend of the show and founding director of The Order of St Hildegard, Frances Cutshaw. Together we explore the myriad of compelling imagery, symbolism, and narrative heft that this fascinating film has to offer: from its visceral brutality, its fascination with religious imagery, its earthy, subversive gender dynamics, and its ultimately disarming message of hope and justice.Also featuring a "Whatcha" patron segment, this is a hearty and fun conversation we hope you enjoy.5:16 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?7:35 - THE ORDER OF ST HILDEGARD17:29 - THE NORTHMANSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We continue with our annual run looking back at last year's strongest films by examining the latest offering from visionary director Jordan Peele: NOPE.

We're continuing in our series of films which are otherwise unrelated except that they were selected for coverage by the attendees of this year's annual FoGgoween, #foggoweeners. It's time as well to step back into the halls of the Quarterly Queens as Asia, Vera, and Jess unpack 2020's haunting exploration of illness and generational legacies: RELIC. This gruesome and meticulously crafted frightener evokes reflections on the ways illness or trauma can sometimes transform those we love, forcing us to face our own inescapable transformations in the aftermath.Also featuring a brief excursion into Whatcha territory, this is a heartfelt and vulnerably honest discussion, and we hope you enjoy it.5:01 - Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?12:00 - RELICSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We launch a brand new series this week gleefully titled #foggoweeners, representing films which are otherwise unrelated but linked by being recommended to us by our patrons during our annual FoGgoween event. We start with Denis Villeneuve's endlessly fascinating and provocative film starring Jake Gyllenhaal, ENEMY. It's a film which invites shock upon first viewing, but then quickly proceeds to invite contemplation and self reflection as its various metaphors and imagery dig their way into our imaginations.It would be foolish to forecast that we were able to crack the code or explain what this film is about, but like the explorer mindset we actively embrace, we tread eagerly into the many things this film makes us think about relational roles, choices, gender dynamics, control and manipulation, and our own adopted perceptions and perspectives regarding those around us we are tempted to call "enemies". Also featuring a Patron-only segment recapping our Halloween experiences, this is a discussion we're very proud of and that we think (and hope) you'll really enjoy.6:58 - Business TimePatron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?
