In the icy waters of Twofold Bay, a strange alliance once thrived between man and whale. At the heart of it was Old Tom, a killer whale unlike any other—who, along with his pod, helped human whalers hunt baleen whales in exchange for first dibs on the spoils.This wasn't legend. It was a documented partnership that spanned generations, built on eerie trust and uncanny understanding. But like many good things, it didn't last. When Old Tom's body washed ashore in 1930, the bond between species died with him. Join Holly & Matthew as they explore the extraordinary story of Old Tom and the Killers of Twofold Bay.

Many people say this is a podcast about drinking good cocktails with your friends while watching bad movies. But we like to think it's also about romance. So, we prepare everyone for the most important holiday of the year, Valentine's Day, by scrolling through some "Best Gifts for Him/Her" lists and see if any of the tacky trash on them is actually a decent gift idea. Turns out...not many.Wolfcop: Some Canadian dude watched Teen Wolf and Bad Lieutenant, then decided to make a mash-up. THEN, the guy was able to get the Canadian taxpayer to pay for the project. But, these are the people that invented Poutine, so crossovers are right up their alley. As for the story, a drunk cop finds out he's a werewolf. Then he finds out the town is full of shape-shifters looking to harvest his blood. Talk about a complicated week. But, he embraces it, so good for ol' Lou Garou. Wolfcop final grade: Steve: A bit of a disappointment. High hopes not met. That's the problem with expectations. Too damn much shaky cam. Good practical effects, though. 2.25/5.0Brandon: If this is the best form of Canadian cinema, worthy of public grant money, then maybe it's time to shut the place down. Quite a wiener-twist in this one, or a hog-twist for those of you north of the border. 2.4/5.0Cocktail of the Week:Gin Old Fashioned2 oz Old Tom gin1/4 oz Semi-rich Simple Syrup Three dashes Orange BittersPlunk a hunk of lemon peel in a cocktail mixing glass along with some ice. Combine all ingredients in there and stir away. Strain into a lowball glass over a block of ice. Garnish with skewered lemon peel and Luxardo cherries.Cocktail Grade: Better than expected. Kinda tastes like a lemon-lime soda without the fizz. Not a Sprite, though. Maybe a Starry. 4.1/5.0------------------Contact us with feedback or cocktail/movie recommendations to:boozeandbmovies@gmail.comX: @boozeandbmoviesInstagram: @boozeandbmoviesThreads: @boozeandbmovieswww.facebook.com/boozeandbmovies

Adapted in a light-hearted, comical style from a diverse set of genuine Medieval Arthurian Romances, this special Three Ravens retelling of the iconic 14th century poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is our bonus miniseries for Advent 2024.Split into 25 parts, one for each day of December leading up to and including Christmas Day, the tale follows Gawain, a young knight in King Arthur's court who embarks on a rambling quest, packed with adventures, which takes him all around ancient Britain - a journey which begins at one Midwinter feast and ends at another, exactly one year later.In Part IV, King Arthur takes Gawain across to Old Tom's smithy in order to show him a rather special Midwinter surprise. All the while, the pair are observed by Gringolet, Gawain's horse, who was born to achieve great things and not hang about in a boring old stable...The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

As we dive into the world of venture capital within the golf industry, listeners are privy to groundbreaking insights on what it takes to invest in the sport's future.

He discusses how traditional golf is blending with new market segments, and the significance of supporting ventures that are innovative yet resonate with the core values of golf. Matt emphasizes looking beyond golf-themed concepts to substantive businesses capable of flourishing within the golf ecosystem, all the while sustaining a broader market appeal. Key Takeaways: Preeminent aspect for investment is identifying compelling founders who can demonstrate grit and adaptability. It's crucial for startups to have not just a great idea, but a calculated growth model showing momentum before seeking investment. Founders should develop businesses with a sound structure and sizable market instead of relying solely on their passion for golf. Old Tom Venture Club invests in diverse golf-related ventures, from tech startups like Drivebox and Fair Game to innovative products like Putter, and even extends to niche areas like Sweden's Cove Spirits. Future of golf is represented by a fusion of traditional, simulator-based, and digital experiences that expand the sport's reach and inclusivity. Notable Quotes: "It's about survival, right? Like, when you're an entrepreneur, your spirit animal is a cockroach because it's the last to die." "Focus on building a good business that just happens to be in the golf space, not building a golf business." "Golf is going to be whatever somebody wants golf to be for them, and it's going to be a much less confined or defined sport." "Don't qualify your opportunities with your group of friends... Go talk to people who don't even like golf." Resources: Old Tom Venture Club: Old Tom VC - Website for syndicate investments and inquiries for interested accredited investors or golf startups.

Last year, I had the privilege of a long conversation with 95-year-old Tom McGoran, and hearing his crystal clear memories of life from the 1930's onwards. You'll hear Tom telling me about growing up in Glasgow in the 1930's, the notorious Razor Gangs of the city, and what he and his pals got up to... We talk about the realities of World War Two and some fantastic insights into what life was like… And we go over some of the funny and fascinating things that happened in the world, the year Tom was born. Listen out for the Joseph Stalin fact-bite… And as always, there's plenty more.

A bonafide West Coast classic — one whose history is pretty agreed upon — the Martinez holds a very important place in cocktail history, as many believe it to be the bridge between the Manhattan and the Martini.

Cooperation between humans and animals is not common, but does happen. Killer whales in Eden, New South Wales, had cooperatively hunted baleen whales with Indiginous peoples for millenia, and then for a short time with the commercial whalers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Eventually the baleen whales they hunted became scarce, and so did the Eden killer whales. Was their disspearance due to lack of prey, a breach in protocol (did the humans break the Law of the Tongue), or something else? Did they just die out, or spread their genes elsewhere? Genetics can help solve at least some of this mystery. This is the story of the Eden killer whale, Old Tom, and his pod. Join us as we discuss this unique relationship, and what possibly became of those killer whales.

Evolutionary biologists in Australia have succeeded for the first time in deciphering the genetic lineage of a famous killer whale. "Old Tom" once skilfully drove whales into the hands of their human hunters and was handsomely rewarded for it. - Evolutionsbiologen in Australien ist es gelungen, zum ersten Mal die genetische Abstammung eines berühmten Killerwals zu entschlüsseln. „Old Tom“ trieb Wale einst geschickt in die Hände ihrer menschlichen Jäger und ließ sich dafür fürstlich belohnen.

95-year-old Tom recently held an exhibition of his incredible oil paintings, depicting 1930's Glasgow, at the Forge, in Glasgow's East End. I was immediately captivated by the detail and quality of the paintings, and Tom's reasoning for holding the exhibition in the first place: to leave his own legacy for those coming behind him. You'll hear Tom telling me about growing up in Glasgow in the 1930's and the environment everyone shared… We talk about the realities of World War Two and some fantastic insights into what life was like… And we go over some of the funny and fascinating things that happened in the world, the year Tom was born. Listen out for the Joseph Stalin fact-bite… And as always, there's plenty more.

The city was extremely quiet, with a genuine sense of sadness and occasion as people scurried home to watch the funeral on TV. At Christ Church College, the famous Old Tom bell rang out in the central quadrangle, and we were there to record it. Recorded by Cities and Memory.

To call it a Gin Craze is to be grossly inaccurate; addiction to the spirit in Georgian London created an epidemic of devastating proportions, negatively affecting fertility, mortality, production, and infrastructure throughout the entire city in the 1700s. In this episode, we explore how gin ascended to control an entire metropolis, and examine the solutions put forth by the government in its numerous attempts to restore health and production to the utterly ravaged city. Join us, as we look at the legacy of this epidemic, as well as the tragedies and innovations it inspired.
