Podcasts about Much Ado

Were women in the past completely uneducated — or worse, cruelly denied any meaningful opportunity to receive an education by their parents and society at large? Some modern scholars say so, but in this "back-to-school" edition of Rachel's Trivia Challenge, the Lutheran Ladies are revisiting key literary sources as they not only explore the history of women's education but also investigate whether the prevailing narrative of our day is truly just to those who came before us.   With questions drawn from Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, and other notable authors writing in and about their own times, this quiz will tickle the minds of literary mavens and education enthusiasts alike — even though, in the end, it may raise as many questions as it answers.   Sources referenced in this episode include ...  Gender in Cultural History: Gender and Education  Luther on education: arnold__lut_33_3.pdf  Martin Luther and female education. - Free Online Library  Martin Luther: A Sermon on Keeping Children in School (1530)  William Shakespeare, Much Ado about Nothing  Phillis Wheatley | The Poetry Foundation  Poems, by Phillis Wheatley   The Old Deluder Satan Act: deluder.html  Quote by Jane Austen: “It is amazing to me," said Bingley, "How young ...”  Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice; Mansfield Park   Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre  Social History of American Education | Education | Research Starters | EBSCO Research  The story of female education in the US: from illiterate to top of the class | World Economic Forum  ERIC - ED119389 - A History of Compulsory Education Laws.

From September 13, 2023: On August 30, soldiers and high-ranking officers of the Armed Forces of Gabon seized control of government buildings and communication channels in the capital city of Libreville, detaining Gabon's President Ali Bongo in his residence and declaring an end to the Bongo family's 56-year rule. It was a coup—one of nine in the last three years in West and Central Africa, including in Niger just one month prior. Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien spoke with Naunihal Singh, author of the book Seizing Power: The Strategic Logic of Military Coups, to discuss the spate of coups in the region, the origins of coups, what makes certain countries more coup-prone than others, and the rise and fall of anti-coup norms during and after the Cold War. They also dispelled several coup myths, including the myth of the coup contagion. To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Episode 214:For today's guest episode I was pleased to get the chance to talk to Rob Eastaway, author of a book all about Shakespeare and his relationship to numbers and mathematics. Rob's book ‘Much Ado About Numbers' is a very entertaining read, whatever your level of understanding maths might be and quite an eye opener when considering how much maths permeates into Shakespeare's plays. This is not just about hard numbers and number crunching, but touches to the Elizabethan attitude towards descriptive scales, astrology, astronomy, music and optics. Rob does a great job in the book of condensing these very broad and often technical subjects into a book that is a mixture of popular science, mathematics, history and, of course, literature, so it was great to chat to Rob about just some of those concepts.Rob Eastaway is author of several bestselling books connecting maths with everyday life, including "Why do Buses Come in Threes?" and "How Many Socks Make a Pair?". His first book "What is a googly?", an introduction to cricket, was famously presented by British Prime Minister John Major to President Bush (snr) at Camp David in 1992, and was published in the USA under the title "Cricket Explained". With Mike Askew, he wrote "Maths for Mums & Dads", a book that helps parents to understand the new methods being used to teach maths, and offers ideas for how to make maths more engaging and fun at home. An American edition was published in 2010 entitled "Old Dogs, New Math". Rob appears regularly on radio in the UK and is a regular speaker. An activity that has taken him to the Usa and Australia. He was President of the Mathematical Association from 2007-8.Links to 'Much Ado About Numbers:Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Much-Ado-About-Numbers-Eastaway/dp/1805460293/ref=sr_1_1?Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Much-Ado-About-Numbers-Shakespeares/dp/B0CWD3SNXP/ref=sr_1_1?Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp You can find an advertisement free version of the latest podcast episodes by joining on Patreon at the lowest paid tier level – that's for just £1 per month.

While not out of the woods, the tail risk around the Middle East shock has faded materially for now. This brings the conversation back to tracking the same forces for growth and inflation discussed before the war, with a dash less growth but a dash more inflation. The “not having your cake and eating it too” theme is back on the menu. The case for more hawkish central banks is made, most clearly for the Fed.     Speakers: Bruce Kasman Joseph Lupton   This podcast was recorded on 17 April 2026.

Andy saw Hamnet and wept in the theater. When he told other people, they called it "grief porn." Andy now thinks our culture has engineered away the spaces where feeling too much is the whole point. Andy and Derek dig into Byung-Chul Han, Shakespeare, and the ancient human need to mourn together in community. Meanwhile, Derek watched Hamnet alone and cried on his couch.

From delectable marchpane in Romeo and Juliet, and the herbs of the Merchant of Venice to stew'd prunes of Henry IV, and carving capons in Love's Labour's Lost, there is a wide gambit of meals consumed in Shakespeare's plays that span from bawdy feasts to elite noble banquets, and even popular meals eaten as much to control your behavior as they were seen as nourishment. The details about food found throughout Shakespeare's plays reflect the real foods enjoyed from the peasants to the royalty of Shakespeare's life.   This week we are diving into these delectable delights with food historian and author Sam Bilton, to talk about her latest book, Much Ado About Cooking—which was created in collaboration with Shakespeare's Globe---that allows us to get a literal taste of Shakespeare. Much Ado About Cooking takes Shakespeare's own food references and pairs them with real recipes from his lifetime, then reimagines those recipes for the modern cook so that you can easily make, and eat, food from the life of William Shakespeare.

Denzember continues with Culture Kitsch host Bobbi Miller joining us to discuss Kenneth Branagh's 1993 Shakespeare adaptation Much Ado About Nothing. Following his successful Henry V adaptation, Branagh returned to Shakespeare for a much airier, light-hearted affair, fashioning the classic play into an immensely pleasurable studio romantic comedy while preserving the spirit and (more importantly) the language of Much Ado..., assembling a showstopper ensemble led by Branagh, Emma Thompson, Michael Keaton, Keanu Reeves, and Denzel as Don Pedro of Aragon, nearly 30 years before he would take on The Tragedy of Macbeth.  We begin with a discussion of Branagh's formal tendencies, how his maximalism works for the genre, and illuminate his underremarked upon technical prowess. Then, we discuss what Branagh's Much Ado...  preserves from Shakespeare's stage, what it omits, and how these ommissions speak to the film's position as an End of History artifact interested in reifying traditional family values centered around monogamous, heterosexual couplings. Finally, we discuss how Denzel's Don Pedro is utliized narratively and thematically in the film, and how Denzel's movie star persona and race factor into our perception of the character.

"It's a weird combination that makes a great picture. It's a complete mystery to me." -- Alec Soth "A portrait isn't a fact but an opinion—an occasion rather than a truth." -- Richard Avedon   In this episode, Antonio and Ward reflect on the recent passing of Martin Parr, talking through what they've long admired about his work, his move from black-and-white to color, his time at Magnum, and the way he photographed everyday life without smoothing out its edges. The conversation also drifts into a new idea Antonio picked up by accident at a Christmas market in Nebraska, where he connected with a nonprofit that helps formerly incarcerated people train for work in professional kitchens. He talks about why that idea stuck with him and how he's imagining photographing the space—both behind the scenes and through more formal portraits made in the kitchen itself. Speed skating becomes another thread, with Ward unpacking his weekend shooting a World Cup event in Calgary. Autofocus frustrations, missed shots, and the value of reviewing a rough first day all lead to a shift toward slower shutter speeds and motion-based images that felt more honest than frozen action frames. The episode also circles back to their previous conversation with motorsports photographer Jamey Price, offering a clearer recap of some of the racing terms and technical references that came up, grounding the discussion for listeners who may not live in that world.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

Following the intense battles with Malar and Enich, Zechs collapses in exhaustion and is taken to his parents' home to recover. At the same time, Galahad marks the ritual site to prevent further sacrifices. That evening, the party celebrates their hard-won victory at the Faint Mandolin and Jaded Kitty Kat, sharing drinks, reflections, and heartfelt moments—Turk earns his title “THE Turk,” and Greyleaf connects deeply with him over magic and family. Before the night ends, the mysterious Ickra appears with critical news: updates from JM, the status of Argo, warnings of fiend activity in Ors Themar, threats to the arcane balance in Mechfall, and a chilling note that Arguile has another alternate—one with a rifle. Meanwhile, Zechs dreams of his childhood sacrifice, recalling The Constable calling him "Quill" and suggesting his role is tied to destiny, not malice. Upon waking, Zechs reflects on the weight of his powers and joins the others to discuss next steps, including Galahad's coming confrontation in Granzia and finding Arguile's mother.As the group departs for Iwi, they briefly reunite with past allies Cereius, Attros, and Doctor Honeydew, noting significant changes in their magical gear and a new ally, We Ahqua. Flashbacks reveal Arguile fleeing mid-heist under the curse of lycanthropy, with Greyleaf, Duo, and Shanks tracking him down and subduing him until morning. With the curse lifted, the group reconnects, makes camp, and prepares for the next leg of their journey. After notifying their families and arranging travel via Rig, they arrive in Nykorua and begin adjusting—Arguile's hometown is alien to most of the party, leading to humorous missteps, the discovery of Arguile's many aliases, and a tailor named Elmira who upgrades their wardrobe. As the group explores the city, they enjoy both fun and introspective moments, with Arguile meeting Mira, who provides a lead on his mother and returns his hidden stash. Meanwhile, Galahad acquires a temporary weapon and orders a custom-fused blade from a smith named Jax, while Zechs excitedly pitches gadget ideas.After shopping and training, the group visits the Crystal Gardens for a brief connection to nature and gathers more information about the city's rules, history, and key figures. Arguile shares insights about his guild and their operations compared to others, giving the party a clearer view of the city's underworld. The team's next mission begins to take shape as they prepare to locate Arguile's mother and address mounting threats. With their goals set, they make their way toward the Spire District, eyes forward on what may be their most personal and revealing journey yet.There's so much happening, and we pick up with arc 27 “Much Ado About Dorna ”.

AI-generated actor Tilly Norwood has sparked heated controversy across the film industry. 

This week, we read and discussed an article about a phenomenon that apparently some people are, or were, concerned about: the problem of fascist infiltration of the anti-war movement. We discuss the problems inherent in gatekeeping social movements and the lack of left-wing organizations of any size. We also chime in on the overblown concerns about "Red-Brownism."Send us a message (sorry we can't respond on here). Support the showVisit the Regrettable Century Merch Shop

From Templar secrets and occult symbolism to the foundations of the American experiment, this conversation will leave you questioning everything you learned in history class.https://unrefinedpodcast.comThe Hidden Life is Best – Robert's podcast and research platform.sirbacon.org – A resource dedicated to Francis Bacon research.Francis Bacon Research Trust – Run by Peter Dawkins, deeply tied to Rosicrucian scholarship.Francis Bacon Society – Historical research group dedicated to Bacon's legacy.Rosicrucian America: How Secret Societies Influenced the Destiny of a Nation

Today we pick apart the market drama that unfolded in the wake of a modestly dovish Jackson Hole speech from Fed Chair Powell, with market divergences more compelling to discuss than the speech itself and its boost to the broader market. We also emphasize that the week ahead could prove a pivotal one as the AI theme faces its critical quarterly test in the shape of Nvidia's earnings on Wednesday after the US market close and US Labor Day marks the end of summer. FX reactions, anecdotes, links and more also on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links discussed on the podcast and our Chart of the Day can be found on the John J. Hardy substack (with a one- to two-hour delay from the time of the podcast release).

Today, long-time friend of the blog and podcast and current TFB contributor, Kirk, joins us to talk about one of his favorite subjects - Shotguns. Shotguns are an often underloved sector of the firearms industry these days, and today we're going to take some time to talk about what's new in the world of shotguns. I'll be discussing some recent experience I've had with some semi and pump-action shotguns at Thunder Ranch, and Kirk brings his decades of expertise with shotguns to shed some light on what some of the best (and worst) examples of shotguns are in the modern firearms era. Please give Kirk a warm welcome back to the show as he joins us on his ferry commute home!  Follow Kirk on Instagram here

What to do when good ink goes bad.  Today's letter writer got a new tattoo right on heels of a divorce. Now they regret it. And they also probably regret not telling the Advice Fight boys any details about that aforementioned tattoo—because Adam, Ben and Andrew have to use their imaginations. And those aforementioned imaginations have been warped and darkened through years of standup comedy (and perhaps poor nutrition). The results of such imagination abuse? You'll find that in today's very important episode.  ⁠CLICK HERE TO VOTE FOR THIS WEEK'S WINNER⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Poll opens at 10:00am Mountain Time) LINKS: Follow us for show dates and more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adam Cayton-Holland⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ben Roy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Andrew Orvedahl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Grawlix⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support this podcast on Patreon to get ad-free episodes, bonus videos, exclusive merch, birthday shout-outs and more.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  UPCOMING SHOWS: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠See the Grawlix live at the Bug Theatre on Saturday, June 28th with Kiri Shabazz, Babs Gray, and Joshua Emerson!⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠See Adam performing in Petaluma, Sacramento and Oakland, California on July 10th-12th⁠⁠ ⁠See Ben performing at the Realto Theater in Casper, Wyoming on July 11th-12th⁠ ⁠See Adam peforming at the Southeast Arizona Birding Festival in Tuscon on August 8th!⁠ ⁠⁠Check out Andrew's new tabletop roleplaying games!⁠⁠ Got a question?

The largest and strangest riot in New York City's history.

President Trump announced a new trade deal with China after days of negotiations. Here's the thing: Trump's tariffs on China will stay the same. So what did the two countries actually agree to? We'll get into it. And, after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired a panel of experts that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on vaccines, doctors and insurance companies are wondering who they should look to for guidance. Plus, a life-sized stuffed moose on Capitol Hill makes us smile.Here's everything we talked about today:"Trump Hails Progress With China, but Details Are Sketchy"  from The New York Times"RFK Jr. just fired the government's vaccine experts.
