Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me. Or is it? A lot of us seem to be drawn to the life of a swashbuckler on the open seas, but we don't really think about all that entails. It wasn't all just fun and games on the deck with your bros. The history or pirates is filled with violence and rivalries, but not much food. Maybe it's time to rethink something we've - at times - shaped our entire personalities around.

They also discuss the upcoming schedule for Indiana after being booed off the court on Tuesday night and fans chanting for Mike Woodson to be fired. (25:34-41:34) – Voice of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Tony Simeone, makes his Query & Company debut ahead of Monday’s College Football Playoff National Championship game to preview the game against Ohio State. He agrees with Jake that Notre Dame has been even keeled during the CFP because of every game since the Northern Illinois loss being a playoff game, explains how Marcus Freeman has evolved as a head coach, and does believe there is one area offensively where Notre Dame has an advantage versus Ohio State. (41:34-45:58) – The first hour of the show concludes with Jake and Jimmy discussing the scuffle after the Pacers beat the Pistons and play what Obi Toppin had to say in his postgame radio interview. (45:58-1:08:26) – Last night Jake posted on X asking people when the last time they ate Long John Silvers. He asks Jimmy and Eddie the last time they consumed it. They then pivot back to the Indiana Hoosiers and how important this upcoming stretch is for Mike Woodson to get the season back on track. If not, it leads to a conversation about how the Hoosiers will handle Woodson’s departure. (1:08:26-1:25:29) – For the second consecutive week, Jake and Jimmy take you around the country with another Two-Minute Drill! This week’s trip has stops in Baltimore, Buffalo, Dallas, Detroit, Kansas City, and Los Angeles.

(1:30:18-1:54:17) – Kevin Bowen from the Wake-Up Call with KB and Andy joins the show for his weekly appearance to discuss the latest news regarding the Colts defensive coordinator search. He explains which candidates would probably command some sort of roster overhaul on that side of the ball and then discusses how he is feeling about Notre Dame’s game on Monday night against Ohio State. (1:54:17-2:09:10) – Indiana Fever Head Coach Stephanie White joins Query & Company to discuss news from yesterday about the franchise getting their own training facility, explains what the investment says about the Simon family, loves the growth recently around the league with multiple franchises building new facilities, provides an update on what some of her players are doing during the off-season, and .

As artists, we're often taught to make characters look like who they are, emphasizing clear, exaggerated visual cues. However, in writing, it's the actions a character takes that truly define them, sometimes conflicting with their outward appearance.I discuss how these differing approaches can clash and how understanding both the external and internal aspects of character can lead to more nuanced and compelling designs. By examining examples like Tyrion Lannister from "Game of Thrones," Darth Vader from "Star Wars," and Long John Silver from "Treasure Island," I highlight how characters with contrasting appearances and motivations captivate audiences.Whether you're designing your own characters or aiming to deepen your storytelling, this video offers insights into balancing clarity with complexity.

Hour 1 Boomer is back today. He was at a speaking engagement in Columbus, Ohio. His bag was checked by the TSA because of his container of Metamucil. Daniel Jones is going to get benched as we all know. The question now is where do they find the next guy and what does it take to get him. Gio has been wanting the Jets to go after Jon Gruden. Boomer checked his sources and confirmed that Gruden wants back in. Gio wonders if Roger Goodell would let him back in after what he said in those emails. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with audio from Giants GM Joe Schoen as he met the media. Boomer wants Sauce Gardner to put the phone down and stop tweeting. The NBA Cup started last night and the Knicks beat the Sixers. Jerry Seinfeld called in to C-Mac's show after the producer said there were only 3 good episodes. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Drew Lock or Tommy DeVito starting in place of Daniel Jones after the bye. DeVito brings energy and excitement and the fanbase likes him. Maybe the Giants are afraid of having success with him. Hour 2 We talked about who could be the next head coach for the Jets and a name that has popped up is Steve Spagnuolo. He's been involved with 4 Super Bowl championships with the Chiefs and Giants. The Bears and Cowboys are going to be the most coveted jobs, the Jets the least, so Spagnuolo coming here is not likely. A caller wants the Giants to sign Arch Manning now, which is not the way it works in the NFL. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Joe Schoen meeting the media. Jerry Jones was on the radio in Dallas and again was talking about the sun during games. The Knicks beat the Sixers in Philly. Jerry Seinfeld called in to the C-Mac show last night and talked about the great Mets run, saying it was the most magical outside of the two World Series wins. Seinfeld would rather build a Mets team than getting Juan Soto. He then asked C-Mac what the pain was like in the fifth inning of the Yankees debacle. In the final segment of the hour, a caller said Boomer doesn't admit when he's wrong. Hour 3 Phil Simms joins us in his Wednesday spot and we start with the game in Germany that Phil did on the radio. We talked about Daniel Jones' performance against the Panthers and Phil said he's seen this before over and over again. Phil doesn't think the Giants are going to leapfrog Drew Lock for Tommy DeVito.

But Rich Gannon seemed to think Gruden wants to go to a better situation than the Jets have right now. Boomer thinks his personality is great for the Jets, the same way Rex Ryan was.

Robert Louis Stevenson, a sickly boy with a vivid imagination, grew up along Scotland's rugged coast, where tales of shipwrecks and buried gold stirred dreams of pirates and treasure. Out of this coastal world, Stevenson crafted Treasure Island - and with it, Long John Silver, a character who has since come to define the cunning, complex pirate in our imaginations. But what inspired Stevenson's tale, and how did his own experiences, steeped in adventure and struggle, breathe life into one of literature's greatest pirates? Tracing the origins of Treasure Island and its enduring characters, we learn that the stories are grounded in Stevenson's Scottish roots, a tapestry of real pirate lore, and the influential writings of Daniel Defoe. We meet Jim Hawkins, the young hero, and Long John Silver, the peg-legged rogue inspired by stories of real marauders. Join Anita and William as they explore how Treasure Island came to shape the mythical pirate figure and inspire countless adventures.

This week on The Video Store Podcast, we're diving into some adventurous waters with four pirate films you might not have rented yet, but are worth a look. These films span decades, showing how Hollywood has captured the allure of swashbuckling adventures over time. Whether you're a fan of classic Hollywood, musicals, or big-budget ‘90s action, I've picked a lineup that I think captures the spirit of the genre in different ways.Here's what's on this episode:Captain Blood (1935)If you're curious about Errol Flynn's big break, Captain Blood is the film to watch. Directed by Michael Curtiz, who later went on to make Casablanca, this movie was released during the Golden Age of Hollywood and set the standard for pirate films to come. In it, Flynn plays Dr. Peter Blood, an Irish physician turned reluctant pirate, a role that became iconic for him. Olivia de Havilland co-stars, marking the first of eight films they'd appear in together. The movie was actually adapted from Rafael Sabatini's 1922 novel, and what's interesting is that Flynn wasn't the studio's first choice. Warner Bros. originally wanted Robert Donat, but when he turned it down, they took a chance on Flynn, who was then unknown. The film went on to be a hit, and Flynn's career took off from there.Treasure Island (1950) Disney's first fully live-action film was Treasure Island, adapted from Robert Louis Stevenson's novel. This film captures the heart of the classic pirate tale with Bobby Driscoll as Jim Hawkins and Robert Newton as the unforgettable Long John Silver. Newton's portrayal of Silver is what many credit with shaping the “pirate accent” we recognize today, especially that exaggerated “Arrr.” For a lot of people, myself included, this is the definitive version of Treasure Island, so it's a must-watch for anyone wanting a straightforward adaptation of the classic tale.The Pirate Movie (1982)The Pirate Movie is very different from the last two films. It is more of a campy, musical rom-com take on The Pirates of Penzance. If you're looking for a quirky, offbeat experience, this film, starring Kristy McNichol and Christopher Atkins, is definitely that. Though critics weren't fond of it when it was released, it's gained a bit of a cult following since then. One interesting thing about this movie is that it openly riffs on the Gilbert and Sullivan opera it's based on, adding a lot of modern (for the time) references. It's worth a watch if you're into musicals and don't mind a less traditional approach to a pirate story.Cutthroat Island (1995)Last up is Cutthroat Island, an ambitious, big-budget adventure directed by Renny Harlin and starring Geena Davis and Matthew Modine. Known mostly for being a notorious box office bomb, it has gained some appreciation over the years for its impressive stunt work, practical effects, and for putting a female pirate in the lead. Davis plays Morgan Adams, a captain on a quest to find hidden treasure. While the film's financial failure might have overshadowed its merits at the time, there's a lot to admire. It's also one of the last pirate movies before Pirates of the Caribbean would revive the genre nearly a decade later. If you're ready for a bit of pirate escapism, these four movies offer different takes on the genre, from classic Hollywood adventure to musical satire to large-scale nineties action. Listen to the show to hear a little more about each film and why they're worth watching, and maybe even renting, this week. This is a public episode.

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 9: Silver Helped JimIt was now evening.'I must go back to the house now,' I thought. 'They're going to be angry with me, but I've got the ship.'So I left the ship and went happily back through the trees.I saw the house, and a big fire next to it.I moved on quietly through the trees and went into the house.It was dark and very quiet.'Everyone is sleeping,'I thought.Then somebody spoke.'Who's there?' he said.It was Long John Silver.Somebody brought alight.There were six pirates in the room.The other pirates were all dead.'So here's Jim,' said Long John Silver. 'Here to visit us. That's very nice ...'I said nothing.'So now you want to be a pirate, Jim,' Silver said. 'The captain and the doctor are angry with you,I know.''What's happening?' I asked.'Well, Jim,' said Silver. 'The ship's far away. Your friends left the house yesterday, and we're here now. And you, Jim, are you going to stay with us?''Let's kill him,' said one of the other pirates.'No,' said Silver.'I'm the captain. And I like this boy.'The other men were angry with Silver.They went away to talk about it together.'I want to help you,Jim,' said Silver quietly tome. 'But you must help me, too.'At last, the other pirates came back.They gave Silver some paper.It was black.'You aren't our captain now, John Silver,' one of the pirates said. 'We don't want you. And we don't want that boy.''Well,' said Silver. 'I have something you want. Look! And he showed them Mr.Trelawney's treasure map.''The doctor gave me this!' he said.The pirates were very excited and they all looked at the map.'Good old Silver!' they said. 'Good old Captain Silver!'The next morning the doctor came to the house.'Good morning, doctor,' said Long John. 'Look who's here!''Jim!' said the doctor. 'I want to talk to you. But first I must look at these men.''Now I want to talk to Jim, 'said the doctor after a few minutes.'No, you can't,'said one pirate.But Silver said, 'Yes,he can. You can speak to the boy, doctor.'The doctor turned tome.'Why are you with the pirates, Jim?' he asked sadly.'It was a mistake,' I said. 'They caught me here last night. But doctor, I've got the ship. It's in the North Inlet.''The ship! 'said the doctor.'Good boy!' he said.Then he turned to Silver.'Silver! Look after this boy. Perhaps I can help you later.

Pourquoi les pirates sont-ils souvent représentés avec un perroquet ?

Les pirates sont souvent représentés avec un perroquet sur l'épaule pour plusieurs raisons historiques, culturelles et symboliques.La représentation populaire des pirates avec des perroquets provient en grande partie de la littérature et des œuvres de fiction. Le roman de Robert Louis Stevenson, "L'Île au trésor" (1883), a grandement contribué à cette image. Dans ce livre, le personnage du pirate Long John Silver est accompagné d'un perroquet nommé Capitaine Flint, qui crie des phrases comme « Pièces de huit ! ». Cette représentation a été reprise et popularisée par de nombreux autres livres, films et spectacles, consolidant l'image du pirate avec son perroquet.Historiquement, les perroquets étaient effectivement présents sur les navires pirates. Les pirates voyageaient souvent dans les régions tropicales où les perroquets étaient indigènes. Ces oiseaux colorés étaient capturés et gardés comme animaux de compagnie en raison de leur apparence exotique et de leur capacité à imiter la parole humaine. Les perroquets étaient également des marchandises précieuses, pouvant être vendus à bon prix dans les ports européens et américains.Le perroquet symbolise l'exotisme et l'aventure, des éléments étroitement associés à la vie des pirates. Les pirates vivaient une existence hors des normes de la société, souvent dans des environnements tropicaux et lointains. Avoir un animal aussi inhabituel qu'un perroquet soulignait cette rupture avec la vie conventionnelle.Pratiquement, les perroquets étaient des compagnons de voyage relativement faciles à entretenir à bord des navires. Contrairement aux chiens ou aux chats, les perroquets nécessitent moins de nourriture et d'espace, ce qui les rendait adaptés à la vie sur un navire. De plus, leur capacité à parler et à imiter les sons humains en faisait des compagnons divertissants pour les marins durant les longs voyages en mer.Cette image s'est perpétuée au fil du temps grâce à la culture populaire moderne, y compris les films de pirates, les dessins animés, et même les parcs à thème comme Disneyland. La figure du pirate avec un perroquet est devenue une icône culturelle, ancrée dans l'imaginaire collectif, représentant l'aventure, la liberté et le mystère des mers. En conclusion, la représentation des pirates avec des perroquets est un mélange de faits historiques et d'influences culturelles, qui a été solidifiée par la littérature et la fiction, et perdure dans notre imaginaire collectif aujourd'hui.

William Ernest Henley's "Invictus"

Today's poem–benign anthem of the resilient human spirit or a hymn to radical autonomy?–has divided audiences for more than a century.Born in Gloucester, England, poet, editor, and critic William Ernest Henley was educated at Crypt Grammar School, where he studied with the poet T.E. Brown, and the University of St. Andrews. His father was a struggling bookseller who died when Henley was a teenager. At age 12 Henley was diagnosed with tubercular arthritis that necessitated the amputation of one of his legs just below the knee; the other foot was saved only through a radical surgery performed by Joseph Lister. As he healed in the infirmary, Henley began to write poems, including “Invictus,” which concludes with the oft-referenced lines “I am the master of my fate; / I am the captain of my soul.” Henley's poems often engage themes of inner strength and perseverance. His numerous collections of poetry include A Book of Verses (1888), London Voluntaries (1893), and Hawthorn and Lavender (1899).Henley edited the Scots Observer (which later became the National Observer), through which he befriended writer Rudyard Kipling, and the Magazine of Art, in which he lauded the work of emerging artists James McNeill Whistler and Auguste Rodin. Henley was a close friend of Robert Louis Stevenson, who reportedly based his Long John Silver character in Treasure Island in part on Henley.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
