In August of 1914, the United States of America completed a man-made waterway through the Panamanian isthmus, linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans for the first time in history. But that engineering triumph was the culmination of decades of toil, conflict and death. In this first episode of a multi-part series on the Panama Canal, we trace the origins of its construction, beginning with the doomed French attempt and its tragic protagonist, Ferdinand de Lesseps.      SOURCES: Burton, Anthony.

Daniel never believed in haunted houses. He believed in structure, craftsmanship, and the predictable behavior of aging wood. The Marlowe farmhouse at the end of the abandoned county road was supposed to be another straightforward restoration project—dust, sweat, long nights, and eventually a sale.Instead, it became a countdown.It started with a sound he couldn't explain and a piece of furniture that wouldn't stay where he left it. Then came the footsteps—measured, deliberate, always after one in the morning. The same number. The same path. As if someone upstairs was finishing something that had never quite been completed.When Daniel uncovered a small detail about the home's former owner, the pattern stopped feeling accidental. So, he did what any rational person would do. He interfered.What happened next wasn't dramatic. It wasn't explosive. It was quieter than that. And far more unsettling. Because some houses don't rage against the living.

Scott Marlowe is a researcher whose work connects the study of cryptozoology—the investigation of unknown or legendary creatures—with cryptography, the analysis of hidden codes and symbolic systems. Marlowe explores how folklore, eyewitness reports, historical documents, and encoded references may contain overlooked clues about mysterious creatures and unexplained phenomena. By blending pattern analysis, symbolic interpretation, and field research, his approach suggests that both biological mysteries and hidden information systems may require similar investigative methods rooted in decoding evidence and contextual meaning.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Iron Lung is a staggering work of indie horror, but we would argue that it's also an unconventional and hyper ambitious Faust fable, restaging the whole drama of Marlowe's classic deal-with-the-devil play inside a claustrophobic submarine stained with blood. In this episode, we're mapping Marlowe's characters onto Markiplier's minimalistic ensemble, laying out the terms of Simon's remixed Faustian bargain, and hunting for his oft-conjured but seldom seen Mephistopheles. It's Lynchian! It's Lovecraftian! It's positively Faustian! And here's the kicker, the film's ending takes on a whole new level of meaning and symbolism when interpreted through this lens!

Episode 203: We now stay in the world of the Elizabethan interpretation of classical history and myth with Ben Jonson's next play ‘Sejanus His Fall'. Rooted more firmly in history than myth Jonson's play uses the story of a power struggle motivated by personal ambition to look at the nature of power, justice and politics. This was quite evidently dangerous ground for a playwright already known for his clashes with the authorities, but it was not just that commentary of contemporary politics that got Jonson into trouble with this play. A brief word on the unfinished tragedy ‘Mortimer His Fall'The ‘argument' of the play and some thoughts on what the play might have beenThe early performance history of ‘Sejanus His Fall'The possible co-author of the playThe early reception of the playThe background to the poor reception of the playA synopsis of the playThe ban on satires and historiesThe translations of Tacitus and complications with EssexHow John Heyward's problems with censorship influence the playThe play as a commentary on Elizabethan societyQuestions of the control of power in the playQuestions of the application of justice in the playThe motivations of SejanusThe aesthetic issues with the playHow Jonson mixed comedy and tragedy in the playThe influence of Marlowe on the verse in the playJonson censured for the playThe later performance history of the playSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

A world-renowned journalist has spoken to FRANCE 24 about her new book that documents the life of a women she says is the most extraordinary one she has ever met.

Her book chronicles the life of Yulia Mykytenko, who is currently the commander of a unit of 25 men who are drone pilots on the front line in Ukraine.

This week on The Upload, host Brooke Taylor sits down with country artist Dylan Marlowe for a raw and thoughtful conversation about faith, calling, and learning how to keep God at the center in an industry that constantly pulls the spotlight toward self. Dylan opens up about when faith became personal for him — not inherited, but chosen — and shares the unforgettable story of how a friend’s mom quite literally pulled him back into church to say yes to Jesus. He reflects on the people who modeled Christ for him growing up, including his grandfather, and how those early examples continue to shape the man, husband, and soon-to-be father he’s becoming. The conversation dives deep into navigating success without losing your soul. Dylan shares the tension of being a public figure, the temptation to chase viral moments, and the conviction he’s felt to walk away from controversy — even when it could bring more followers. He introduces a powerful concept he calls the “glory tank,” explaining why time with the Lord has to come before applause, affirmation, or the stage. Dylan also speaks honestly about life on the road, spiritual discipline in dark environments, and why leading worship for a handful of people has sometimes been more fulfilling than sold-out shows. As he and his wife Nat prepare to welcome twins after a season of infertility, Dylan reflects on prayer, patience, and trusting God’s timing — even when the waiting feels heavy. This episode is for anyone wrestling with purpose, pressure, and the desire to live differently — choosing faithfulness over fame and obedience over approval.

Send us a textIn most film noir, you may be able to pick out a teaspoon of nobility in even the most nihilistic, rotten protagonist --- they're in the situation because of their attraction to someone, or due to desperation, or the breaks are against them. Or sometimes, because of the structure of the world around them. From this season's own short list, witness the hard luck of Al in Detour as his ride is killed falling out of a car. Bart can't leave Laurie and her homicidal tendencies behind in Gun Crazy. Marlowe wrestles with covering up a murder for love in The Big Sleep. The Swede is played for a sap in The Killers because he took the wrong course after giving up boxing. I mean, pick your reasons. But occasionally in the genre, a protagonist is so unsympathetic, so outside the mainstream of human values that he (always he) plows on for the basest of reasons in his quest for money, or ease, or freedom, or carnal satisfaction. Combine that with a story that is beset by nihilism, directed by someone who was understandably bitter about their life's turnings, populated with actors with a story to tell, and you have a bitter stew of noir that's difficult to watch, let alone understand. Please stay in your seats. I present to you the wonderfully named Night And The City. The most noir of titles…Website and blog: www.thosewonderfulpeople.comIG: @thosewonderfulpeopleTwitter: @FilmsInTheDark

'Hero and Leander' was published in 1598, and anyone who came across it in a stationer's shop in Elizabethan London would have known that its author was dead, killed in a brawl in Deptford in 1593. Christopher Marlowe's sensational life as playwright and spy is matched by the wit, sophistication and eroticism of his eccentric retelling of Ovid's myth, based on a 6th-century version by Musaeus. Seamus and Mark begin their new series by looking at the playful but often troubling treatment of desire in a poem that contains one of the most explicit depictions of sex in English poetry.

Today on the show I get to chat with Amanda Marlowe! She guides thoughtful art experiences that ask kids life's big questions. She develops curriculum for nature non-profits schools, museums, and businesses. Amanda holds a BSA in Philosophy and Education from Skidmore College and is currently writing a children's book on death. Her business, Eco Art, is a thoughtful art experience on sustainability and impermanence for kids. A trash art offering designed to interact with the byproduct of creation. All bits and bobs upcycled. Materials supplied, though feel free to byot (bring your own trash)!Amanda shares how and why she began to work with children through the medium of upcycled art. It began really out of her own processing of her birth mother's death and a curiosity about what to do with her belongings. Our conversation touches on themes of grief, loss, letting go, and cycles of life. She also works with children who have lost a loved one, and works with a team of folks at Roula's Kids to support them through their grieving process. It feels important to mention that during our conversation, something opens up for me, and the tears began to flow. We left unresolved her resistance to the label artist, and are still unpacking what to do with the "shoulds" that surface from time to time. Clearly there's more for us to talk about. I could listen to her share her creative ideas for what to do with leftover toys and arts supplies for hours and am excited to try my hand at making paper!You can find her Mondays at CCE, High Meadow School and contact her for your kiddos special event or if you have items you think she might enjoy transforming with her clients.
