Podcasts about Minotaur

Labyrinths have fascinated people for thousands of years, appearing in mythology, religion, art, and architecture across many cultures. This episode explores what labyrinths are, how they differ from mazes, their connection to the legend of the Minotaur, and the many ways they have been used throughout history. Along the way, you'll hear about ancient designs, medieval cathedral labyrinths, symbolic journeys, and modern walking labyrinths. It's steady and consistent, with no whispering and no sudden changes, just enough to give your mind something to follow as you wind down. Happy sleeping!

This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we're joined by Scott Snyder for one of our favorite conversations of the year. We dive deep into Absolute Batman, the newly announced animated series, why he believes monthly comics need to embrace what makes the medium unique, and the creative philosophy driving one of comics' biggest successes. It's a candid, wide-ranging discussion on storytelling, the future of superhero comics, and why taking big swings matters more than ever. Visit our Patreon page to see the various tiers you can sign up for today to get in on the ground floor of AIPT Patreon. We hope to see you chatting with us on our Discord soon!

Dave: A Mischief of Magpies #1 (Bilquis Evely) Chris: Nightwing #140 (Jorge Fornes Main) Interview: Interview: Scott Snyder 1. Manga storytelling influence Joe Kelly recently mentioned how manga like One Piece can devote entire chapters to a single action sequence, something that's harder to replicate in American comics because of page counts and production realities. Is manga storytelling an influence on your work, and do you find yourself thinking about how to capture that same sense of scale and rhythm within Western comics? 2. Marvel and DC I recently spoke with Josh Williamson about writing Iron Man, and it was fascinating hearing how he's consulting on DC projects while also becoming part of Marvel's plans. Seeing creators move more freely between publishers these days, does that ever make you want to jump back into Marvel for another major project? 3. Harley Quinn and Joker The revelation that Joker is Harley's father completely reframes both characters. What made that the right relationship for the Absolute Universe, and what storytelling opportunities does it create that couldn't exist with their traditional dynamic 4. Designing Gotham's monsters Body horror and transformation have become defining visual elements of Absolute Batman. What are your guiding principles when reinventing characters like Poison Ivy, Clayface, and others while still making them instantly recognizable? 8. Absolute Batman animated series You're serving as showrunner on the newly announced Absolute Batman animated series. How does that creative role differ from making comics, and what has surprised you most about translating this version of Batman to animation? 10. Court of Owls Finally, the Court of Owls has entered the picture. Without spoiling anything, what can readers expect from your take on one of the most important Batman concepts you've ever created?

Jace and Rocky break down all 11 DC releases for the week of July 1, 2026. Absolute Green Lantern #16 brings the Absolute Lantern spectrum closer together as Hal Jordan uses violet light to protect the group from the Black Star of Sinestro, Jo Mullein weaponizes the people of Evergreen inside the Green Lantern construct, and Jessica Cruz's connection to Mogo threatens to throw the fight sideways. Poison Ivy #46 moves the pieces into place for Bad Seeds without Pamela appearing in the issue, as Janet from HR explains why Harley may be the only person who can reach Ivy and why Pamela's love for Harley makes her feel vulnerable. Batman #11 brings Lady Ojo back into the story as Batman clashes with her, the Minotaur's hold on Gotham's criminal money comes back into focus, Dr. Zeller deals with the fallout of Bruce's almost-date, and Verity Pennyworth makes her first appearance at Wayne Manor. Adventures of Superman: Book of El #10 continues Philip Kennedy Johnson's House of El story as Superman battles for his adoptive children, the fight on Tamarian escalates, and Kryl-Ux proves how powerful he has become by taking on a Sun-Eater. Batgirl #21 brings Cassandra Cain back to Gotham as Doctor Forget-Me-Not forces her to confront memories of a young girl named Victoria who may have been killed by Cassandra when she was younger, while the issue continues building Batgirl's own supporting cast. 100 Bullets: The U.S. of Anger #1 returns to Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso's world in black and white, following Lono through a grim, angry story involving podcasters, gang violence, police violence and the fractured state of America. Deadman #2 improves on the first issue by bringing in Plastic Man, showing Deadman fail to take over Batman because of Bruce's psychological defenses, and expanding the villain's interference with souls transitioning into the afterlife. Supergirl: Survive #2 turns Kara and baby Kal-El's escape into a galaxy-hopping Elseworlds adventure as Lobo's gang hunts the last Kryptonians, the Lantern Corps appears across the emotional spectrum, and Kara receives a hope lantern ring after Saint Walker's death. Absolute Martian Manhunter #12 closes the series by focusing on John Jones' relationship with his son Tyler, how his inability to understand Tyler helped fracture his family, and how the Martian Manhunter experience lets him see others differently as he chooses a second chance with his wife and child. JSA #21 explores the Spectre's origin and has the spirit of vengeance jump between different JSA hosts, including Obsidian, Jade and Wildcat, while Metron suggests the mystery depends not only on the Spectre's beginning but also on Jim Corrigan's origin. Batman / Green Arrow / The Question: Arcadia #4 continues Gabriel Hardman's political mystery as Batman, Green Arrow and the Question push deeper into the conspiracy around Arcadia, with the book still functioning more as a dense ideological thriller than a traditional superhero team-up. They also give a rundown of this week's collected editions, reprints and facsimile releases. As always, all books are ranked from top to bottom and each host gives a Book of the Week pick.

For half a century, the BTK Killer story has been told the way Dennis Rader wanted it told. Factor X. The Minotaur. The BTK brand. Every term that has anchored his mythology came from a typewriter in his own kitchen in Park City, Kansas. Every term was his.In this first chapter of a five-part investigation from True Crime Today, host Tony Brueski sets the version of Dennis Rader that documentaries have repeated for forty-seven years next to the actual investigative file. The two don't match.The man who wrote the 1978 Factor X letter to KAKE-TV was a thirty-two-year-old husband and father. An alarm installer for ADT in Wichita. A student at Wichita State University working toward a degree in the administration of justice. He had taken courses on profiling. He knew what serial killers were supposed to sound like in the cultural imagination of the late seventies. He typed himself into the role.The press printed his words. The cops filed his words. The country read his words. And for nearly fifty years, when somebody has tried to explain Dennis Rader, they have explained him the way he wanted to be explained.This episode walks through the 1978 letter sentence by sentence. The literary references he borrowed from. The cultural figures he compared himself to. The contradictions inside the letter that read, in retrospect, less like the confession of a possessed killer and more like the audition tape of a man trying out for a role.The series will continue with the chase that didn't close, the official roles that made him invisible, the thirteen-year silence between his confirmed killings, and the floppy disk that ended his thirty-one years of getting away with it.

Dennis Rader was the BTK Killer. He was also the man who named himself the BTK Killer. He typed the name onto an envelope and mailed it to the Wichita Eagle in October of 1974, and the city has been calling him by that name ever since.In the first chapter of a new five-part investigation, Hidden Killers host Tony Brueski takes apart the mythology Dennis Rader built around his own crimes. Factor X. The Minotaur. The BTK brand. None of it came from a profiler. None of it came from a detective. All of it came from a man at his own kitchen typewriter in Park City, Kansas, while his wife slept down the hall.For nearly fifty years, the BTK story has been told in his words and his frame. Documentaries quote his letters. Books quote his letters. Podcasts quote his letters. The version of him in the cultural imagination is the version he composed about himself.The actual file shows something different. A criminal justice student at Wichita State who'd taken classes on offender profiling. An alarm installer who had legal access to hundreds of Wichita homes. A husband and a father who chose, at thirty-two, to begin writing himself a role he could spend the rest of his life playing.This episode walks through what Rader wrote, when he wrote it, what he borrowed from, and the press response that made the legend official. The series will follow with the chase that didn't close, the costumes that made him invisible, the thirteen-year silence between his confirmed murders, and the catch that ended his run in 2005.This is the first uncomfortable truth. Dennis Rader was not a force of evil. He was a vain man with a marketing plan and a typewriter that worked.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On this episode of Horror Joy, we discuss Mark Z. Danielewski's 2000 novel House of Leaves on Horror Joy, framing it as a dense, meta haunted-house text built from layered narratives: Johnny Truant, an unreliable LA tattoo artist, edits the manuscript of the blind academic Zampanò about the possibly nonexistent documentary The Navidson Record, whose house contains impossible, expanding interior spaces. We explore the book's paradoxes, footnotes, shifting typography, and the Minotaur motif (including red strikethroughs like track changes), arguing it satirizes academic monographs and demands active “detective work” from readers. We connect the novel to internet-era hyperlink logic (blue “house”), liminality and Backrooms, and themes of trauma, memory, remediation, and community, while noting student reactions and ending with joys found in the Navidson explorations, playfulness, and characters like Tom.The book is an almost impossible labyrinth of references and self-references. But we manage to find some joy.

Cannes 2026: I denne tradisjonsrike episoden oppsummerer vi årets Cannes-festival med vår danske venn og kollega; kritiker og filmredaktør Christian Monggaard i avisen Dagbladet Information. Som tidligere har vi også i år satt oss ned ved mikrofonene helt på slutten av festivalen, dagen før prisutdelingen, med Christian Monggaard – som igjen leverer sin faste åpningsreplikk «Hei på fjellet!» og setter tonen for denne humørfylte og grundige oppsummeringen av Cannes-festivalen her på Filmfrelst. Resultatet fra juryen ble som kjent offentlig på prisutdelingen lørdag 23. mai, men i samtalen nedenfor gjenstod fortsatt én festivaldag, og vi avslutter med å gjøre oss noen refleksjoner rundt hvilke filmer som kunne hevde seg når prisene skulle deles ut. (Juryen ble i år ledet av den sørkoreanske mesterregissøren Park Chan-wook). Vi får også høre Christians refleksjoner om trender og tegn i tiden fra årets festival, og diskuterer en rekke titler fra hovedkonkurransen – som betyr at vi er innom alt fra Cristian Mungius Gullpalme-vinner Fjord, Ryūsuke Hamaguchis innholdsrike drama Soudain («All of a Sudden»), Andrey Zvyagintsevs dystre Minotaur og den elleville, sørkoreanske actionfilmen Hope, regissert av Na Hong-jin. Vi deler også våre Topp 5-lister fra festivalen som helhet. Ved mikrofonene sitter Christian Monggaard, Karsten Meinich og Lars Ole Kristiansen. God lytting!

The Cannes awards are here, and somehow the Oscar race feels less clear than it did before.In this episode of The Oscars Outsider Podcast, we react to the major winners from the Cannes Film Festival, including the Palme d'Or win for Fjord, and try to figure out what any of it means for the Oscar race.The big question: did Cannes give us a new frontrunner, or did it make the whole season even messier?We dig into the Screen Cannes jury grid, where Fjord landed at 2.5 while several other contenders, including Fatherland, Minotaur, and All of a Sudden, scored higher. We also talk through the mismatch between critical consensus and jury awards, which films feel stronger after Cannes, which ones suddenly look shakier, and whether the Palme winner is actually positioned for Oscar attention.If you follow Cannes, Oscar season, festival buzz, or the strange gap between critics' favorites and awards bodies, this episode is for you.Subscribe for more Oscar race analysis, festival reactions, and awards season chaos.

The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw has been sending dispatches from Cannes since 1999. If you ask him what's changed in 27 years, he claims: nothing. He means it as a compliment.Hugo Emmerzael sits down with the legendary film critic on the Croisette mapping out Peter's journey through film, from his first memory of cinema through the strange, accidental route into one of the most-read critic chairs in the English-speaking press. They get into why only Cannes, among the major film festivals, still places film criticism at the heart of it all.Plus five films that caught Peter's attention this year: Andrey Zvyagintsev's Minotaur, Paweł Pawlikowski's Fatherland, Rodrigo Sorogoyen's Beloved, Marine Atlan's La Gradiva, and Clio Barnard's I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning, and why we should value the politics inside the films rather than the statements and press conferences around them.Get tickets to ⁠Cine of The Times: The Fast And The Furious⁠ @ LAB111 Get tickets to ⁠Moving incl.

Romanian director Cristian Mungiu has won the Palme d'Or for "Fjord", a tense family drama starring Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve. In FRANCE 24's special Cannes awards programme, Eve Jackson and critic Emma Jones break down all the major winners from the closing ceremony – from the Grand Prix for "Minotaur" to the double acting prizes for "All of a Sudden" and "Coward".

Cannes is almost over, which means it is time to make our Palme d'Or predictions.In this episode, we break down the Cannes competition, make our picks for who we think could win the Palme d'Or, and talk through which films might carry momentum into the Oscar race. We get into the strange energy of this year's festival, the movies that seem built for jury attention, the ones that could break out later, and whether Cannes still feels like the launchpad it used to be.Along the way, we also talk John Travolta's honorary Palme d'Or, Paul Schrader's Cannes grumpiness, Jacob Elordi's jury absence, and the general chaos of trying to read festival buzz from afar. The episode sets up the Palme prediction segment directly in the intro, so this title and thumbnail are aligned with what the show actually promises.Chapters:0:00 Intro0:42 John Travolta's honorary Palme d'Or & Paul Schrader4:24 Setting the stage: Cannes wraps up5:06 Top storylines & the Screen jury grid (Fatherland, Minotaur)9:43 Standing ovations & the clapping arms race12:08 Polarizing films & Fjord (Cristian Mungiu)14:01 Where's Hollywood?

Experience Talk Cosmos on Sunday May 17 at 1:00 PM PDT! Host Sue Rose Minahan delivers insights interweaving “Time Travel Identity Consciousness”. Astrology perceives the riddles and themes within repeating orbital cycles. Looking to the past solidifies old stories, which often spark a new chapter to develop new potential from old purposes. Yet, because some planetary cycles span enormous epochs of time, how can we grasp the past to understand the path leading us forward?As we navigate a unique set of cosmic patterns, our popular fascination with time-travel media carries a deeper message. Just as the Greek hero Theseus found his way through the Minotaur's labyrinth by unraveling a ball of yarn, we too can find clues. And because this involves the restart of a massive 6,400-year cycle, we can "bring it home" by looking at how various shorter cycles interweave.Connect with inspiration!

Bernie Taylor is back. Our guide around the Meditterean took me up on talking about Crete, We still haven't deciphered it's writings, but it's influence outsizes the island's size. From the legend of Atlantis to the Minoans and myths such as the Minotaur, on to any Phoenician connections, Crete looms large.Listen in and let's see if we can't separate some facts from fiction, and maybe leave some things in the gray.

This week on Get Canceled, Sheryl and her guest open the show discussing the lack of accountability in this modern era and the idea of how women's liberation translated to women objectifying themselves.  The degeneration happened quickly once social media hit.  We, as a society, watched the slippery slope occur, beginning with innocent selfies on FaceBook to sexy bikini pics on Instagram to full blow f*cking on OnlyFans.  Then the conversation pivots to modern relationships and how the feminization of men has caused women to fantasize about hypermasculinity in the form of a minotaur. DISCLAIMER: This show is for entertainment purposes only.  The views expressed by the guests do not necessarily reflect the views of Get Canceled.  All guests remain anonymous.If you enjoy, please rate review subscribe and share!Have you or someone you love been canceled?  Sheryl wants to hear from you! Email: getcanceledinfo@gmail.comX: @GetCanceledPodwww.getcanceled.com

This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we interview cartoonist Stephanie Stalvey, diving deep into her graphic memoir Everything in Color. In the conversation, Stalvey opens up about growing up in an evangelical household, unpacking purity culture, and how motherhood reshaped her understanding of faith and identity. It's an honest, vulnerable discussion about turning lived experience into art, and why telling these stories can resonate far beyond one person's life.

Darboe variant) Interview: Stephanie Stalvey, EVERYTHING IN COLOR out 04/28/2026 Your book explores growing up in an evangelical community where love and obedience were deeply intertwined. When you look back now, how do you understand that relationship differently? One of the most striking ideas in the book is the notion that “our bodies belong to the authority figure.” How did unpacking that belief shape the emotional core of this memoir? Everything in Color is deeply personal, especially in how it portrays your relationship with your husband and your child. What was it like sharing drafts with your husband as you were creating the book? Your journey raises big questions about faith, doubt, and identity. Did you find yourself arriving at answers while making the book, or is it more about learning to live with the questions? The book touches on major shared moments like 9/11 and the COVID lockdown. How did anchoring your personal story to these larger events help shape the narrative? There's a powerful shift in the book where love, especially through motherhood, reframes everything as sacred. When did that realization first begin to take hold for you? This is a massive and ambitious work. Was it always envisioned at this scale, and how long did it take you to bring it to life? The title Everything in Color feels like a mission statement for the book. At what point did you know that was the right way to describe this journey? The artwork blends intimacy with emotional weight throughout. How did you approach pairing your visual storytelling with such vulnerable subject matter?

Erin starts off with pretending like she never was weird about the Minotaur. She's gaslighting herself. We wonder if this is the same story as The Sun and the Star but with lower stakes. The mythics struggle to fit in at Camp Jupiter. Mr. D provides some telehealth therapy. Then, we are joined via audio messages by a listener Chloe, who gives us a super thorough deep dive on the Minotaur's name. Erin provides our Minotaur Deep Dive (naturally) and spends a lot of time discussing the labyrinth and the minotaur in pop culture. We love to see it!Episode References:Monstrous Women Podcast Pasiphae Episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Xc8cV3h4TofRJJX5Q1mK9?si=CpXdnVKxS-Kdgns-nBwSJg Article about the Minotaur and violence: https://lithub.com/the-beast-inside-what-the-myth-of-the-minotaur-reveals-about-human-nature/ Reverse Minotaur: https://deciphermedia.tv/assets/imgs/misc/reverse_minotaur.png Minotauromachy: https://aestheticrealism.org/terrain-gallery/art-history-criticism/chaim-koppelman-on-picassos-minotauromachy/Podcast Links: SUPPORT US ON PATREON: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/camphalfpod?fan_landing=true⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT US ON KO-FI: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/camphalfpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SEND US AN AUDIO MESSAGE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.speakpipe.com/Camphalfpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠JOIN OUR DISCORD: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/gzHYsUbdgr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MERCH: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.zazzle.com/store/camphalfpod 

Minos has been released! Artificer's Kacper Szymczak bulls his way onto the Forkcast to talk about the the game's unique maze-building action defense playstyle, before delving into the dark and winding development path that led to this hybrid experience.

We're back!!!! Finally, we tackle Court of the Dead, the sequel to The Sun and the Star. We have a lot of questions. First of all, who gave Mr. D a license to practice therapy??? Also, why is he suddenly nice? The premise of this book is juicy and hilarious, and we get to meet this new version of the Minotaur, or should we say, Asterion. Erin doesn't find him as hot now that he's a good guy. We don't need to talk about what that says about her.
