Greg Anderson and Stephen O'Malley from SUNN O))) are here to discuss their new self-titled album, American artists moving to Porto in Portugal, why they relate to author Robert Macfarlane's vivid liner notes and his essay about being overwhelmed by a standing wave, reflecting upon our experiences at a memorial gathering for Steve Albini and what we learned about him, how this album's producer Brad Wood kept things organized when songs might contain upwards of 130 guitar tracks each, ambient recording, a treehouse editing suite, and placing microphones in the woods outside of the Bear Creek Studio, why it was significant for SUNN O))) to connect their music to the environment, the significance of making their first record for Sub Pop self-titled and without any other collaborators, distinguishing between nostalgia and celebrating history, their recent visit with Ian MacKaye at Dischord House and its impressive archival systems, their digital live series, upcoming tour dates, other future plans, and much more.EVERY OTHER COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH.

Former Oiler Luke Gazdic was our first guest on today's program, and it couldn't have been a more perfect day to get a former player's perspective. We went straight into the deep end on the ongoing Mike Babcock saga. Luke shares his unique insight on the reports that the player leadership group has signed off on the move and tackles the million-dollar question: Does Babcock truly deserve a third chance in the NHL? We look at all the heavy cons, weigh them against the potential on-ice pros, and finish things off with Luke's breakdown of the Stanley Cup Final and who he is personally pulling for to lift the Mug.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   After the break, we got into I Got Beef. Some great beefs from the boys today.   Reid Wilkins capped off hour two. He touched on last night's historic game in the NBA finals, we then got into his beef and we couldn't avoid it any longer… We got right into the Oilers talk with his opinion on what's going down in Oil Country.

Evan Cartwright, Tim Darcy, and Ben Stidworthy from Cola are here to discuss their new album Cost of Living Adjustment, the first Ought interview ever, why Ought ended when it did, group dynamic stressors and Buddhism, the way Cola work together, cool beats and whether or not Ben could be a music producer, delving particularly deeply into the songs “Hedgesitting” and “Much of a Muchness,” the band's subtle acronym name, sports metaphors, capitalist critiques, and escapism, tour dates and new songs, other future plans, and much more.EVERY OTHER COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH.

Gina Gershon is here to discuss her new memoir, AlphaPussy: How I Survived the Valley and Learned to Love My Boobs, creating the perfect breakfast cereal, how this new book came to fruition, similarities shared between cats and men, why some younger artists see a toughness in her they feel they can't harness themselves, writing a reflective book about being an independent, somewhat unparented child while caring for and then grieving for her mother, boxing with Bob Dylan and their enduring friendship, the gratitude she receives from fans inspired by her strong characters in Bound and Showgirls and rekindling her conflicted relationship with the latter in its thirtieth anniversary year, what's next for her, and much more.EVERY OTHER COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH.

Greetings and welcomeHope all is well out there.This week is chapter 5 of Way of the Kip. Chapter belowI was away last week so no podcast. My latest rap EP - More 64s of Boredom is out for stream / download pretty much everywhere. Links belowHave a great weekendPaulBANDCAMPSPOTIFTYAPPLEhttps://music.apple.com/gb/album/more-64s-of-boreddom-ep/6772325154QOBUZhttps://www.qobuz.com/us-en/album/more-64s-of-boreddom-paul-cree/db5vajegkhjwmAMAZONhttps://music.amazon.co.uk/albums/B0H2NL275KYOUTUBECHAPTER 5 – Way of the KipNo matter how mellow the alarm sound I selected, it's like the blower had grown go-go-gadget arms during the night; and with every polyphonic note the phone made, it jabbed at my eardrums with brass knuckles.Made a blind grab for the phone, grappling for the off-button; dropping the thing on the floor. Quick inhale then swung my legs out the side of the bed, felt the cold on my shins. Slowly sat up, half opened my eyes and stared at my old red football shorts; covering my thighs. The M was missing from the name. U BRO. Another breath then acknowledged the waking pain of the day. Routine, but this one hit harder. The feeling that I'd only just got to sleep five minutes before was normal; this time it came gift-wrapped with something extra that I couldn't yet identify.The thread had come loose along the right side of my shorts and the red colour had long since faded; reminding me when my first goldfish (Mgoldrik) slowly stopped being gold and faded out like a photograph, till he got the final flush to the hallowed burial grounds of the New Town sewage treatment.I'd had those shorts for a good ten years. Well, ten years, don't know if it was all that good. Ten years back was probably the last time I had a kick-about. I reckoned I could still thread a pass, tho.The phone bleeted again. Picked it up and switched it off. Next to the blower was the tissue. Of course. I heard a chuckle over my left shoulder; my neck slowly turned towards it.October's Frank Lampard was grinning, while making a hand gesture, mimicking the one I would've made probably about three hours before. Underneath him sat that sedate sandalwood candle. Sandalwood, the scent of failure.‘You mug. You think it's that easy? Pull the other one, son.'And there it was. The bow on the present. Frank was right. I'd convinced myself just one simple purchase from Tesco was going to solve all my sleep problems. Mug. Why was it always like this anytime I tried to do something to improve my life?I'd hit sombre season; just didn't see it coming, I should've. The life-cycle of idea, obsession, rushed execution, disappointment, embarrassment, guilt and finally numbness was complete. It was ever thus. Perfected this little routine sometime back in school. A sigh this time. I slowly stood up, closed my eyes, breathed again, opened my eyes; then cracked on to the bathroom.The walk to Streatham Hill station was slow. I tried to rationalise the whole candle caper; it's not like I'd done something super-shameful, yet I felt similar to how I would, had I downed six post-work pints on an empty tummy, said some stupid stuff about society then spewed on the train back and woke up in West Norwood. Like the week before. So why was I feeling so low?Despite the multiple signs and announcements about no bikes in rush-hour, some plank wearing a tool-belt was trying to get on the train with a mountain-bike and arguing with a couple of commuters. It was a packed-platform and the 7:15 was already rammed when it rolled in. I don't think the geezer was English. Probably Polish but then what did I know; I was probably just a bigot, lacking sleep.Bike-man gave up eventually and reluctantly battled his way to the back of the platform, muttering some harsh syllables in a language I didn't understand. A few commuters grumbled then chins went back to sternums, eyes to papers, ears to headphones and no more was said.Standing room only on the train. I was shunted down to that no-mans land between two seat-backs with nothing to hold onto; just the sandwich of two bods to wobble between. Couldn't even get my ipod out. Probably a good thing, I would've almost certainly drawn for the tear-jerkers.Once I'd fallen out the train at Victoria and swiped my ticket; I liven-ed up a bit on the bop down Victoria Street. My mind was preparing potential small-talk scenarios about what I did last night. Needed to deflect any genuine curiosity beyond the basics. Nothing much; just a bit of Sky Sports News; what did you do? That was the best I could come up with.Did the regular eyes-right to Westminster Cathedral and thought of Nan taking me and my sister in there when we were nippers. Much to her disappointment, we'd slipped to the lowest tier of membership in the Catholic club. First Easter got dropped, then even Christmas, now it was attend-mass-only-by-invite; weddings and funerals. The basic package. Still, I always acknowledged its presence on the daily graft-march to purgatory. I liked that it was there. It quietly maintained its magnificence on a suffocatingly dull street full of civil-serving concrete office blocks.Up ahead I saw Pete going through the glass doors into the office, clutching a copy of the Sun and a Greggs paper bag; most likely containing two steak-bakes. From distance, I could tell he was whistling a tune.Quick breath, through the doors then fist-bumped Sammy on security then straight into the lift. Thankfully no one from my floor was in there. Doors open and into the open-plan, strip-lit-sweat-pit. Quick breath then ran the gauntlet, arrowing straight to my desk hoping not to catch any eyes of conversation.‘How was your sleep Reece, did you have sweet dreams?'Shaz caught me off guard. Almost stopped. Out of some politeness, I turned my torso; it hurt.‘Erm, yea, it was alright, you?'‘You know she's taken don't you?'‘Who's taken?'‘Bianca'‘Eh?'When she said Bianca, she lifted the A and N then pushed down on the C and the A, kissed her teeth and turned back to her desk and her bowl of muesli. It was a shame Shaz was fit because I really disliked her. Clearly the feeling was mutual; certainly, on the dis-liking. She also had a boyfriend, Trey, who looked like he could handle himself, like Dan. Hero.The last thing I needed now was an office-rumour about me fancying Bianca. Like Shaz, she was also quite attractive just less acerbic and a lot more dim. Why was she telling Shaz about my sleep problems? That was a liberty.Managed to get through the morning mostly without incident. Priah came and inspected my screen once or twice; but despite being sleep-deprived I was managing to hold my focus and processed a bunch of claims.About 11 o clock, Priah sent an email round saying Monique from Essential Skills was coming in for part two of the bias training. I raised an eyebrow at this, as I wasn't aware there was a part 2 and I was beginning to question wether this was an Essential Skill. I was about to compose a witty response to Diane, making sure it wasn't to Priah this time but then clocked my name wasn't on the list of attendees. Pete wasn't on there either. I'd must've missed the bit where it said Ladies Night? What the flip was this? A day at the races? Either that or some oiled-up alpha was coming in dressed as a fireman to swing it about, while they all screamed and giggled. Maybe it was Dan and Trey. I could only conclude that birds had more bias to flush out than geezers, and if Shaz's snidey little remark was anything to go by, my theory was correct.Came back from lunch and Saw Monique from Essential Skills in the meeting room, setting up the power point. Once the Spice Girls had filed into the glass menagerie I took it as an opportunity and go make a cup of tea.Pete came into the kitchen, whistling. He had another greasy bag from Greggs containing two sausage rolls.‘Surprised you're not in there, mate.' He said.‘What, girls-club?'‘Girls and gays, ‘aint figured which you one you are yet, son'‘Gay? Who's gay in there?‘Pretty sure I saw Keith go in just now.'‘Boring Keith's in the training?!'Sure enough, I stuck my head out, looked across the office floor and in amongst the well-maintained ladies barnets was Boring Keith, with his little glasses, big belly and tiny mouth; holding his pen, tiny little grin on his boat.‘I didn't know Kieth was gay? I didn't think he was capable of human relationships.'‘What's the problem, Reecy? You enquiring?' He chuckled at this, while he got a plate out of the cupboard.‘Couldn't care less if he's gay. He's still a geezer but he's in there and we aint.'‘Dunno why you're getting stroppy about it Reecey-Boy. You think too much, that's your problem.'‘Yea maybe, just think it's a bit of a double standard.'‘Moan about it all you like, mate. I'm taking advantage. Got an appointment in trap-2, gonna take my time on this one; had a big ruby last night. Then, I'm gonna sit and do my fantasy team and knock off early. I cleared a load of work this morning so when Priah gets out, I'll go here look, I was banging-out claims left, right and centre while you lot was in there. That's how you play it, son.'Off he went, whistling again, clutching his Gregs bag and a plate, then stopped and turned back round.‘Oh yea. Friday afters. The George. Be there. Don't be gay.'And off he went again. I envied him; I don't think he was phased by anything. I looked back across to the glass-menagerie. Monique was pointing at a slide, looking very solemn, though I couldn't tell who was sat where, I could see all eyes were on the screen. It was pure Girl Power. And Kieth. This is a public episode.

    Picking up where we last left off, The Tempests returned to where their journey first began, the wild, untamed desert lands of the Drago continent. It was not how they left it however. A large beast had appeared and was leaving nothing but destruction in its wake. The party had no time to linger however.. The very world was at stake and their haste towards the frozen north took precedence.     They weren't heartless however. Even though Lakin was quite irate at being shot by an arrow, the Tempests still paused long enough to help heal the remaining Welterwatch forces that protected the pass through the Dragonfire Mountains that lead to the Knightly Kingdoms. Pez offered to lighten their load a bit, but was told to put his gun away and behave.     Their short stop coming to an end, the Tempests convinced their recent addition, Mug, to stay behind and help guard the pass. Some smooth talking from Lakin convinced the Ogre to stay behind so he could boss around all the little pink skins.     On through the pass they went once more, stumbling across a small scouting party of Cultists who were swiftly dispatched by Bogbo, then questioned by Lakin pre and post death. Strangely, the moment the Cultist's resuscitated skull uttered the name of their leader, the soul attached to it was forcibly ripped away, causing a bit of psychic backlash. Arsinoe Balor seems to be the name of the mastermind behind all of the cult's activities. What is their end goal? To bring Saedhir into the world. The only question remaining is how?     We rejoin the Tempests now as they gather at the exit to the pass in the Knightly Kingdoms.   We have merch!

C'est un lieu très rare dans le monde musulman. Alors que les mosquées sont essentiellement fréquentées par les hommes et que les espaces pour les femmes y sont souvent réduits en surface, le Qatar a décidé de bousculer la donne. À Doha, la capitale, une mosquée pour femmes a été ouverte il y a deux ans.  Au-delà du lieu de prières, cette mosquée souhaite aussi questionner les mentalités et rappeler que la moitié des fidèles sont des femmes. RFI a obtenu l'autorisation de visiter cette mosquée pas comme les autres. De notre envoyée spéciale à Doha, Assise à même le sol, Lamia El Kamel semble absorbée par sa psalmodie des versets du Coran. Cette Soudanaise avoue qu'elle n'était pas habituée à fréquenter les mosquées avant de découvrir ce lieu réservé aux femmes. « Dans une mosquée pour femmes, tu te sens à l'aise. Tu t'assois comme tu veux. Tu n'es pas dans le contrôle. Quand tu es dans une mosquée pour femmes, tu as l'impression qu'il n'y a que toi et Dieu. La société est loin », confie-t-elle. Ce lieu de culte, d'une superficie de 4 600m², se distingue par son design contemporain. Conçue par un duo d'architectes new-yorkais très en vue, la mosquée Al Mujadilah a été voulue par Cheikha Moza, la mère de l'actuel émir du Qatar, Tamim ben Hamad Al Thani. Elle en a confié la direction à l'islamologue Sohaira Siddiqui, qui guide les visiteurs à travers ses espaces. « L'architecture de la mosquée est très féminine, non ? », lui demande-t-on. « Oui. Quand on conçoit une mosquée pour femmes, il y a des critères subtils à prendre en compte, vous savez. Les courbes, l'élégance, l'élévation, et je trouve que ce lieu incarne tous ces éléments », répond-elle. Nous sommes ici dans la salle de prière, qui peut accueillir jusqu'à 800 personnes. « On a aussi une bibliothèque. On y trouve par exemple ce livre : Les femmes, la famille et le divorce dans l'histoire de l'Islam. Autre livre ici : Introduction à la banque et à la finance islamiques. Ou encore : Les femmes, la science et la technologie. Certains ouvrages parlent de religion et d'autres sont juste centrés sur la femme », précise Sohaira Siddiqui. Le lieu comprend également des jardins, des terrasses et un café au design épuré, où l'on entend le bruit apaisant d'une machine à café. Le concept séduit Hajer Naïli, une Française travaillant dans l'humanitaire et de passage à Doha. Mug à la main, elle explique qu'entre deux sessions de travail, elle prend le temps de prier. « C'est juste agréable en tant que femme d'avoir un vis-à-vis sur l'imam, de pouvoir entendre le sermon sans avoir à être derrière une barrière, un rideau ou cachées », témoigne-t-elle. Avec ce lieu de culte, Sohaira Siddiqui espère secouer les mentalités. Pour amplifier son message, la mosquée a lancé son propre podcast. « Le premier épisode commence avec une phrase que les femmes musulmanes entendent fréquemment : "Il vaut mieux qu'elles prient à la maison." La question qu'on veut soulever, c'est : qu'est-ce que nos mosquées deviennent quand on part du principe que les femmes feraient mieux de prier chez elles ? On a oublié qu'il y a un milliard de femmes musulmanes dans le monde. Ce qui est énorme quand on y pense », souligne-t-elle. Tout sourire, Sohaira Siddiqui révèle avoir été approchée par plusieurs pays souhaitant s'inspirer de ce modèle. Une initiative qui pourrait bien essaimer au-delà des frontières du Qatar.

The confidence of one of the great confidence players takes a battering this week. What starts off as some light-hearted fun around the London Marathon (after Johnny JR reveals some exciting news), turns into a head-in-hands moment that curses Elis for the entirety of today's show.How does his misstep affect his Cymru Connecting performance? Will the unassailable points gap in Made Up Games get even more unassailable? It's all to play for.Elsewhere, John's imagined a world that almost leaves him in tears, and there's a TV-worthy MUG that's more tense than this show's compliance meeting with BBC bosses after hearing John's supermarket docu-drama last week…You can contribute to the Elis and John canon by emailing elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk.
