The group meets with Lockjaw, who tells them that someone named Godking Kang has come from the future with a warning that Galactus is coming to devour the Earth. When the Royal Family asks for proof, Kang pulls out something that takes control of the entire Royal Family, including any guards. Lockjaw was the only one who made it out. After revealing this, the group is teleported to another plane of existence where they meet Uatu the Watcher and Zatu the Narrator, who tell the group that everything depends on their choices. Afterward, Lockjaw tells the group that Kang is in control of the Royal group and his Space Chair is being held somewhere else. The group decided to go for the chair before confronting Kang.

Nicole Cash is a highly skilled performer whose training in classical music allows her to captivate audiences and connect people through the power of sound. She served as 3rd Horn with the Dallas Symphony, and Associate Principal Horn of the renowned San Francisco Symphony, until she was diagnosed with focal dystonia, a career-ending repetitive movement disorder.The meandering road of recovery and rediscovery led Nicole to the art of audiobook narration, to which she brings the same keen sense of rhythm, intonation, lyricism, and drama.Nicole delights in voicing the blood-curdling suspense of a dark thriller, the complex characters of literary and historical fiction, and the heart-warming nostalgia of a coming of age story. Her experiences as an African-American woman compel her to share the tangled theories and truths of social science and political justice tomes.As the mother of two young children, Nicole feels right at home bringing to life all sorts of fantastical characters and creatures, and finds great joy in being silly. Most often described as “warm, clear, engaging, and easy to listen to,” her voice is a hug that envelops the listener in whatever story she is sharing. When away from her home studio on the North Shore of Long Island, NY, Nicole can be found creating custom cakes for friends and family, attempting to grow organic vegetables and herbs in her garden, skiing, singing karaoke, and of course…reading.https://nicolecashchronicles.comhttps://www.instagram.com/nicolecashchronicles/ https://www.facebook.com/nicole.cash.56Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to Crushing Classical, and maybe even leave a nice review!

"You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset..." Welcome to Season 3 of AP Taylor Swift! What happens when we can't trust the person telling the story? In this week's Show & Tell episode, we explore the concept of unreliable narrators through three Taylor Swift songs that demonstrate how perspective shapes truth. From teenage crush confessions to post-breakup rants to defiant love declarations, we examine how Taylor uses narrative techniques that make us question what's really happening beneath the surface of these seemingly straightforward stories.

For the 2025 Emmy Awards, several worthy nominees are debated by podcast hosts Bubba & Catfish. If you're a fan of their old-school petty sniping at each other, you'll love this one.

3/8. In The Iliad, Professor Emily Wilson highlights the narrative's sophisticated literary techniques, comparing them to an English novel. The poem expertly navigates between an omniscient narrator and individual characters' points of view, delving into their minds. Wilson also notes the challenges of translating ancient Greek, citing, for example, the existence of three distinct words for "spear," each carrying specific connections that she endeavors to render dynamically into modern English. This intricate storytelling was a hallmark of 7th-century BCE Greek. 1200 TROY

The Carousel is an episodic narrative podcast with sci-fi, fantasy and dystopia elements, set far enough into the future, space expansion is the norm, following a lonely worker, who uses powers he gains from an ancient carousel to fight against the corporate entity he once worked for. Episode 1: On a routine run for The Commission, Akhos, a Collections Specialist, stumbles upon an abandoned amusement park that has more to offer than he thinks. THE CAROUSELOn a desolate planet, Collections Specialist Akhos gains great powers from an ancient carousel, consequently stumbling upon a burgeoning revolution, led by The Obstructionists, against the corporate entity, The Commission, he once worked for. With his AI, Lassa and his new found powers to help his journey, Akhos fights horrific monsters with The Obstructionists after seeing they are helmed by a fellow Commission worker, Klaus. The series almost mirrors the style of a Greek Tragedy, told with the help of the Narrator, who just might have her own stake in the story told. Season One follows Akhos throughout his journey of gaining powers, joining The Obstructionists to fight against The Commission draining planets with The Machine, a mysterious device that gives the company its power, and learning why they inflict so much horror on the universe.Website: https://thenormies.com/the-carousel/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/thenormies/homeFourthwall: https://the-normies-shop.fourthwall.com/supportersYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbv2OBLeYiYe7B6WgPDnLowThe Carousel YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbZ4CA8my7fSq6f-dBVihCKT48ZrzNw7tSocials: Instagram - the_normies X - The_Normies TikTok - thenormies Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textEver found yourself deep in a Reddit rabbit hole, judging strangers' moral dilemmas from behind your screen? You're not alone. This episode takes you on a journey through some of Reddit's most thought-provoking "Am I the Asshole" stories, where we dissect social boundaries, personal quirks, and the grey areas of human interaction. From a heated confrontation over a medical condition versus a no-shoes household policy to the unexpected drama of allowing dogs but not children at a wedding, these stories reveal how everyday decisions can spiral into complex moral quandaries.We dive into a particularly hilarious case of a coworker who narrates their lunch like a cooking show host ("You're just a sad sandwich. Don't worry, I'm gonna eat you anyway"), examining when quirky becomes uncomfortable and when it's appropriate to speak up about unusual behavior in shared spaces.Throughout our discussion, we share personal insights about how our own experiences shape our judgments - including a tangential but passionate debate about the proper Star Wars viewing order and reflections on childhood experiences that influence our adult perspectives on social norms.What makes these discussions so compelling isn't just the drama of each situation, but how they challenge us to examine our own boundaries and values. After all, in most interpersonal conflicts, there are rarely perfect heroes or villains - just people navigating social waters with different priorities, limitations, and communication styles.Ready to judge along with us? Listen now, and let us know: who do you think is the real asshole in these scenarios?Support the showDo you have a story you would like to share?

Studios hate him. A blind film critic dropped one review on Rotten Tomatoes and suddenly producers are begging him to reconsider… and he might, if they add audio description in film. That's power. That's disruption. That's John Stark. He launched the Blind Film Critic Society with Alex & Lee (because if the Razzies can start in a living room, why can't blind critics start a movement?) He's now a legit Rotten Tomatoes blind critic. And when he posts? Studios listen. Or panic. Sometimes both. He's exposing how credits for audio description accessibility are erased. Writers invisible. Narrators uncredited. Audiences cheated. He's calling BS. And here's the kicker: he's proving exactly how audio description helps blind audiences experience films fully, while showing the industry why ignoring it costs them money, loyalty, and credibility. This episode slaps. It's not just film reviews with audio description; it's a playbook for shaking an entire industry awake.
Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses now have game-changing accessories—but are they worth it? Steven and Shaun debate new side shields and charging cables, before diving into a fiery conversation about AI's reliability, accessibility frustrations, and how blind users really experience these tools. Plus, Steven shares his PC troubleshooting “hero” moment, and listeners weigh in on funding assistive tech, smart homes, and accessibility wins.This episode of Double Tap starts with Steven and Shaun exploring unexpected accessories for the Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses. From clip-on side shields to block out light to a charging cable that allows continuous use, the hosts share their reactions—Steven enthusiastically ordering both, Shaun far more skeptical.The conversation quickly turns to AI. Shaun delivers a scathing critique, declaring he's “falling out of love with AI” due to unreliable answers and dangerous inaccuracies, while Steven highlights his own disappointing attempt to set up a printer with Gemini Vision. The two hosts clash over prompting, practicality, and whether AI can ever be trusted for mobility or real-time tasks.Steven then tells the story of reviving a “silent PC” without a screen or sound—a challenge familiar to many blind users—sparking discussion on non-visual computing, audio device management, and accessibility workarounds like Narrator.Listener emails round out the episode. Charles asks why assistive tech companies don't offer payment plans, Greg from Phoenix highlights Apple Home's local control as a smarter option for thermostats, and Greg from Pennsylvania shares powerful advocacy stories, from accessible kiosks to live play-by-play at baseball games, proving change is possible with persistence.Chapters0:00 – Intro & early morning accessory shopping5:40 – Side shields for Meta Ray-Bans13:15 – Charging cable for all-day use22:30 – Shaun's AI breakup rant40:10 – Steven's Epson printer setup fail with Gemini52:30 – Falling out of love with AI?1:04:00 – The silent PC rescue story1:25:00 – WhatsApp web accessibility challenges1:40:00 – Listener email: Assistive tech payment plans1:50:00 – Listener emails: Smart thermostats, Apple Home, and advocacy wins2:05:00 – Wrap-up & closing banter Find Double Tap online: YouTube, Double Tap Website---Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedin Subscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheart About Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.

Look, when your life is in the hands of someone who only recently gave up huffing glue, you keep your will updated and hope for the best. Such is the situation our four guests find themselves in, but hey, they agreed to be part of this season of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Off This Toxic Planet, so on their own heads be it, really. Dr Theo (swoon) has sabotaged their escape "plan" for purposes that are hazy at best and really f*&king stupid at worst, and now the crew are stuck on a planet that's trying its celestial best to kill them. Will they survive? More importantly, will IaCGMOTTP be renewed for another season? Until next time, Space Monkeys, go get some sun. Really, you're looking a little peaky.

What if your thoughts weren't really “you”? In this groundbreaking episode, we're joined by Belgian-born inventor, global wellness facilitator, and author Clément Decrop, whose concept of the Idea Space is changing the way we understand the mind, ego, and consciousness itself. Clément breaks down the illusion of the self, and how identifying too strongly with our thoughts, names, and roles can block true spiritual awakening. He blends cutting-edge neuroscience, physics, and mindfulness practices into a powerful new model for understanding our inner world. But that's not all… Clément is also the visionary behind a revolutionary AI-powered meditation app that personalizes guided meditations based on your daily experiences. Want a custom meditation for your chaotic workday, your breakup, or even a trip to the beach? This app learns from you and adapts over time...offering bite-sized, deeply personal spiritual support that goes way beyond generic calming sounds.In This Episode, You'll Discover:What the Idea Space really is, and how it mirrors the observable universeThe science behind the Non-Self and why shedding your identity could lead to inner peaceHow meditation helps you “observe” your mind like a scientist, not silence itWhy we're stuck in a loop of imagined fears, and how to shift into objective clarityHow AI and consciousness are intersecting in wild and unexpected waysWhy synchronicity and presence are the keys to real transformation, and how to notice more of themThe inside scoop on Clément's new AI meditation app; what it does, how it works, and how it's safeguarded from “AI creepiness”Favorite Quotes: “Your name is an illusion...it's just an approximation of who you are.” – Clément Decrop“You experience the past and the future as thoughts in the present. That's your real power.”“True self… is non-self.

The Guests are speechless and very skeptical. For a moment it seems that the Time Traveler has lost his memory but he recovers his composure on seeing the time machine. He guests leave, all still skeptical, except for the narrator, and the following day, he is the only person to return. The Time Traveler greets him happily with a camera in his hand, saying that if he would only wait for a 30 minutes, he will return with all of the proof he needs. The Narrator picks up the story 3 years later, saying that the Time Traveler never returned. He wonders where he could be, and hope that he is alright. All that is left of the Time Machine's voyage, are two strange little flowers that the narrator kept, proof that the human spirit of tenderness lives on.SEO Stuff that I don't want to do lol...One of the most influential pieces of fiction of all time, The Time Machine by H. G. Wells, sees a Victorian scientist send himself forward to the year 802,701 AD.

We at Urbanist Media (and the Urban Roots podcast) are excited to have, yet again, celebrated Juneteenth with Cincinnati Public Radio.This year, we produced brand new Juneteenth Cincinnati Shorts: weekly, 90-second tributes to people and places important to Cincinnati Black history and African American history. This one is all about the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs…—Tucked away on Chapel Street in Walnut Hills, this short takes you to the Cincinnati Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, which, for over a century, has continued to serve as a hub for Black women's activism. Founded in 1904 by Mary Fletcher Ross, the Federation united local clubs to provide education and social services that, at the time, weren't available to the Black community. In 1925, members purchased the Hannaford-designed mansion on Chapel Street that still stands today, transforming it into a lasting symbol of resilience, sisterhood, and civic leadership.Listen to the entire archive (2023-2025) on Cincinnati Public Radio's website: https://cinradio.org/juneteenth-special-programming-from-urbanist-media/—Juneteenth Cincinnati Shorts is brought to you by Urbanist Media's Urban Roots podcast team: Deqah Hussein-Wetzel (Executive Producer / Host & Narrator), Tania Mohammad (Producer / Story Editor), Vanessa Maria Quirk (Story Editor), and Connor Lynch (Audio Editor / Mixer).
