A recent story has implied that a coffee shop in Brooklyn refused service to a Jewish man for no reason, sparking protests and claims of "that's how it began in Nazi Germany." The invocation and promotion of this caricature is proof that we are entering the final stage of a repeating cycle. The public is being force fed, for better or worse, antisemitic propaganda about Israelis and Jews while embracing true antisemitism in their demeaning of Arabs (and Islam). The flag of Islam has now been wrapped around the same people that destroyed Germany in the 1920s with drugs, porn, sexual depravity and genital mutilation. Every single thing decent Americans hate is being blamed on Muslims, from grooming children to socialism, despite these things being very "Jewish" in nature. For example, the New York City Mayor is supposed to be a radical Muslim who throws gays off of buildings and yet his team is comprised of Jews and rabbis; he further invested millions into transgender politics while hosting a pride parade. This subversion of the responsible parties can be found with the Roman Empire too, which is always blamed for the death of Jesus, attacks on Christians, and destruction of the Jewish temple. The truth is the Romans found no fault with Jesus, and allowed the Jews and Christians freedom until their violence and subversion became a threat to stability and order. https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/documents/hrbodies/hrcouncil/sessions-regular/session62/a-hrc-62-crp-2.pdf*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Between death and emigration, Ireland lost almost a quarter of its population in the mid 1800s to the Great Hunger. Entire villages starved to death after potato blight wiped out the island's primary subsistence crop, and British overseers did little to help. “Hamnet” author Maggie O'Farrell's ancestors lived that history and stayed in Ireland. According to family lore, her great-great-grandfather was a map-maker who helped the British redraw maps of the island after the famine altered the land. Inspired by that story, O'Farrell decided her next novel would be centered on her homeland of Ireland and the tragic era that marked both the place and her people. “I think it's hard for us,” she tells Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas. “These days, we can look at the statistics [of death and people leaving]. But if you zero down to one or two people's tiny little lives, you see the enormity of tragedy behind it.”O'Farrell's new novel, “Land,” tells the story of two such people, Tomás and his wife, Phina, who survive the Great Hunger and have four children. It's a universal story told through the specifics of one family and one piece of land. She talks about it — and her work on the Oscar-winning adaptation of her novel, “Hamnet,” — on this weeks Big Books and Bold Ideas. Guest:Maggie O'Farrell is an author and screenwriter. Her new novel is “Land.” Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.

Through libations, prayers, hymns, dances, sacrifices, and rituals, ancient farmers connected to the sacred forces, the gods, nature spirits, and ancestors to make the crops grow, keep the herds healthy, the weather favorable, and release energies of fertility. These rural farmer priests and priestesses of the ancient past are the spiritual ancestors of today's cunning farmers.This book explores folk magic traditions of North America and Western Europe, including the grimoire tradition and the practices of witches and cunning folk for increased fertility. Todd draws on Western esotericism, Taoist principles, alchemy, Kabbalah, Reiki, and shamanism to show how to use practical, nature-based magic, just like our ancestors, for more abundant gardening and farming. He shows how to work with land spirits, including meeting the place spirit of your land—the genius loci. He also explores working with Earth and Moon energies, plant magic and forest deities, and ritual. Learn how to deepen your connection to elemental and celestial forces and explore the idea of rewilding the imagination to enhance your relationship with nature and the spirits that call it home.
The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – A defense of 1776 challenges modern claims that America's founding ideals are mythology. By revisiting Jefferson, Aristotle, virtue, and classical learning, it argues that the founding generation understands happiness as moral formation rather than selfish desire, urging readers to recover old books, civic wisdom, and historical memory today...
Larry Jent is a Cherokee storyteller, Methodist pastor and musician living outside Elkins, West Virginia. After readings about the stars and owls in Cherokee mythology we hear of the role of the The Creator, demi-god like figures such as Selu [Corn] and her husband Kana'ti [The Lucky Hunter], and animals in general. From religion and mythology to fascinating mysteries of archaeology and history we get into Native American copper mining both in North Carolina & The Great Lakes; the Chief Joseph stone/cuneiform tablet; Celtic legends and strange petroglyphs in West Virginia; Roman anecdotes and other documentary evidence of Native Americans discovering Europe before Columbus set sail in 1492. Circling back to Cherokee lore, Larry shares two personal numinous stories about birds - an owl and an eagle - arriving as messengers around the death of loved ones. Reading from Myths of the Cherokee collected by James Mooney.

Fans of Batman are used to seeing the Caped Crusader associate with the likes of Superman and Wonder Woman, but what if one were to put the Dark Knight into the company of figures such as Beowulf, Robin Hood, Oedipus, and Sun Tzu, among others? Batman and the Classics: Echoes of Mythology, Literature and Philosophy in the Comics and Films (McFarland, 2026) is the first book to compare famous Batman graphic novels, story arcs, and films to classic texts of literature and philosophy from around the world. Through this comparison we can see, for instance, how the epic warrior archetype of Beowulf or Roland persists in The Dark Knight Returns, or how the metaphor of the journey, found in such works as The Odyssey, occurs in the story arc Knightfall. By placing Batman stories into conversation with such classic texts, this book sheds light on the deeper meanings of key stories of the Dark Knight, as well as how long-lasting themes of literature and philosophy have persisted in the fiction of this popular character.

A @Christadelphians Video: 4. The three unclean froglike spirits originated in France, particularly during the French Revolution, where the rallying cry was: Liberty! Fraternity! Equality! The common people sought rulership by the principle of “human rights”, and the established political and religious authorities were overthrown. [Inspiring] We, as Christadelphians, bring you a truly thought-provoking and insightful exposition of one of Revelation's most overlooked yet critical symbols: the frog-like spirits. This outstanding presentation unpacks the identity of these unclean spirits with wonderful clarity, revealing how Scripture itself points to a specific historical moment – the French Revolution – and the three enduring spirits of liberty, fraternity, and equality. Join us as we prayerfully explore the biblical framework, the fascinating connection between frogs and France, and the powerful parallels between the sixth trumpet and sixth vial. This is a revealing study that will challenge and strengthen your understanding of end-time prophecy.**

Join Talk Cosmos, Sunday 14 JUNE 2026, 1–2 p.m. PDT as we explore the “GEMINI CAPRICORN MOON PHASES” about the upcoming New and Full Moon.Together, the theme of the two upcoming moon phases coincides with several big celestial turning points. In between the new and full moon, Chiron enters Taurus after its long 8-yr Aries transit. Taurus shifts us to begin its 7-year transit of healing self-worth where we shift perceptions from scarcity to abundance.Importantly, this month's pair of lunations suggests gathering information to activate new directions for healing our worth and environment. It begins June 14 with the 24°03' Gemini New Moon promoting deep activation, completing a powerful healing process of releasing what prevents us from nurturing our full identity.On June 29 the 8°15' Capricorn Full Moon occurs a week after the June 21 Summer Solstice, which falls on the first quarter moon. The next day, on the 30th, Jupiter enters its new year cycle in Leo! Shortly thereafter, Jupiter will square Chiron on July 1 to activate healing in a BIG way. Perhaps wounds surfacing of scarcity to be addressed with the intent of beginning to transmute these limitations towards an expanded perspective for experiencing abundance.It helps to remember that Gemini connects and gathers information, while Capricorn strips anything superficial away to find its fundamental basis. Together their energetic consciousness operates to achieve a sense of clarity; necessary for the spark of Mars activating the Uranian essence in the moment as they will soon be conjunct in Gemini the communicator.The Essence of the LuminaryThe second week of the month focuses on capturing the Moon's essence during its New and Full phases. As our most personal planet, the Moon regulates the past as it flows into the present, allowing us to experience emotions, habits, and feelings. Ultimately, it helps us piece together the meaningfulness of our life story. Each month offers the energetic input needed to grow, heal, and develop in mind, body, heart, and spirit.The Conversation Joining Sue Rose Minahan from Kailua-Kona, Big Island, Hawai'i, will be Talk Cosmos member Amanda Pierce of Seattle, Washington.Catch new weekly episodes and subscribe to TalkCosmos.com to access the latest content through YouTube, Facebook, radio, and podcast platforms.AMANDA PIERCE: blends her eclectic style of astrology and energy magic around a soul-centered approach to life and healing.

“We don't go to other planets because our planet is dying. Our planet dies, specifically because we perpetually want to go somewhere else.” Fresh off of the Initial Public Offering of Space X, the largest IPO in human history, it's worth revisiting the deeper implications of humanity's incessant drive... beyond. Today on the podcast, we look at humanity's increasing obsession with transcending planet Earth, in the context of the mythologies of human restlessness. How human beings, whether through certain religious visions of transcendence or through the increasing transhuman and supernatural focus of modern science, are ultimately looking to be anywhere but right here, with ourselves, in nature. This misplaced spiritual drive, in which we perpetually seek wholeness out there when wholeness ultimately lives right here, has been the subject of some of our most central stories about ourselves. Many in fact, have seen it as… a primordial curse.Support the show

"The new owners of Fender since 2020 are attempting to own the copyright on the Stratocaster body. A German court has taken them part of the way but most experts don't believe it will hold up to scrutiny. Nonetheless, Fender has sent Cease and Desist letters to multiple guitar makers telling them to stop production, call back orders and destroy stock. Fender may have just committed brand suicide because history is not on their side."

What happens when mythology meets astrophysics, and the stars become storytellers? In this episode of The Podcast With A Thousand Faces, JCF's Joanna Gardner sits down with Dr. Moiya McTier - an astrophysicist, folklorist, author, and science communicator whose work bridges the worlds of science, story, mythology, and creativity. Since breaking barriers at both Harvard University and Columbia University, Dr. McTier has given hundreds of talks around the world, helped design museum exhibits, consulted on projects with Disney, and become a compelling voice helping people reconnect wonder, metaphor, and meaning with the cosmos. She is also the host of the astronomy podcast Pale Blue Pod and the author of the upcoming book Mothers of Invention. Together they explore Joseph Campbell's influence on her work, the mythic resonance of the Artemis II mission, the role of metaphor in both science and myth, and what creativity can teach us about being alive in an increasingly technological world. Thoughtful, expansive, and full of wonder, this conversation invites us to reconnect with curiosity, imagination, and the shared human experience beneath the stars.

"Sony Music Publishing confirmed an agreement to acquire Blackstone's Recognition Music Group catalog for $3.5 billion. The Red Hot Chili Peppers just sold their catalog for $300 million. Other Funds are raising billions to start buying. These buyers are called Music Rights Funds. I became interested in how these Funds actually made money. How does one invest and can I sell my own music. I have the answers for you."
"The New York Times released their 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters list a short while ago. I know online lists usually have some click bait to start conversation but this list was overtly egregious. Not for who was on it. It was who was left off. We will go over the list and play some artists that should have been on there."

Pastor Stephen De Young recently appeared on Tucker Carlson to talk about everything from Giants and Nephilim to Lost civilization and artificial intelligence. At one point in the interview, he incorrectly describes the universal fertility rituals that have been practiced by countless cultures. He asserts that the Japanese today are using these rituals as part of the imperial ascension process, which he says involves the emperor having sex with the sun goddess. However, according to Japanese sources like the Kokugakuin University, the ritual in question is called Daijōsai — the great Thanksgiving. In fact, “the emperor neither touches nor faces the deity's rest space.” He offers rice and sake, and then has communion. The themes in this triune ritual are like many of the other aspects of Shinto and far eastern religions: they're part of a universal human tradition, rooted in every culture around the world. Further, these facts have been known to scholars for a very long time. Why do modern religious officials then dismiss them and underhandedly make such ignorant comments?https://museum.kokugakuin.ac.jp/files/user/2019_daijosai_english.pdf*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

May 31, 2026: They say the fires at Caledonia Mills started on their own, but anyone who spent a night there knew something far more sinister was at work.==========HOUR ONE: “The Witching Hour of 3AM” *** You don't have to go to a cemetery or haunted house to experience the supernatural. You don't need to drive a cursed road to encounter a ghost. Sometimes the paranormal takes place on military bases. (The Military And The Mysterious) *** The corpse of a murderer winds up doing advertising for a drug store. (The Murder of Maggie Walker) *** In 1922, an otherwise unremarkable farmhouse in Novia Scotia was the site of alleged poltergeist activity which made headlines all over Canada and the United States. A poltergeist that liked to set fires. (The Fire Spook of Caledonia Mills)==========HOUR TWO: Claiming to audibly hear from God either makes you crazy, or a prophet – and only time can tell which is true. If you claim things are going to happen because God says they will – and then they don't happen – that means you're cray cray, and a false prophet. That also makes your followers a bunch of dupes. Sadly, the 19th and 20th centuries were full of crazy false prophets with mindless sheep worshipping them. (Creating False Prophets) *** Headline: “Exciting Wake!” When you see the words “exciting” and “wake” in the same headline, you can make a guess that someone is not resting in peace! (Exciting Wake)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: A smitten fan falls in love with a talented actress, and convinces himself she loves him in return. This sounds very much like a story out of today's entertainment magazines – but this tale of unrequited love took place in the 1880's. (The Lunatic James Dougherty) *** The terrifying Aswang is the most feared creature of Philippine folklore—and with good reason. I'll tell you why. (The Deadly Aswang) ** Reports have been coming in from people claiming to see full-sized African lions not in the Savannah or in the wilderness – but in North America. But is there any truth to the their claims?

Something is wrong in the woods.The artist notices him first — and says almost nothing. One remark, on the way to the station, barely above a murmur. Then the train comes, and he is gone.It falls to Van Cheele to find out what his friend meant. What he discovers, by the pool in the oak coppice, is a boy with light brown eyes that hold something tigerish in them, lying in the sun with an ease that belongs to no child he has ever met.The aunt will find him charming. The dog will not stay in the house.Saki understood that the old country — the country before the parishes and the property lines — was never entirely tamed. The animals there talk."Gabriel-Ernest" was first published in 1909 in the Westminster Gazette, and later collected in Reginald in Russia and Other Sketches (1910).Saki was the pen name of Hector Hugh Munro (1870–1916), a writer of savage wit and supernatural unease. He was killed on the Western Front in the closing months of the Somme campaign.
