This week on Cracked Spines, Sarah did all the dang work and presents to Cyrus volume one of three Chinese danmei series for their consideration: The Disabled Tyrant's Beloved Pet Fish, The Husky and His White Cat Shizun, and You've Got Mail: The Perils of Pigeon Post. Two-thirds of them are completely insane and the last one is morally reprehensible. Guess which one Cyrus gravitated to. Discussion includes a forty-year-old man's suicide plan being derailed by dick pics, an exploration of how exactly one manages to seduce and be seduced by a fish, the most begrudging recommendation that Sarah's ever given, and more urination featured than one might expect.

ONWARD, SPACE FLUNKIES!! Sally and Kevin are searching the frozen robot planet for the notorious Space Outlaws, Ed, Edd n Eddy. WHICH of our three brave listeners would take the risk to listen to this episode? YOU WOULD LISTEN TO IT! FULL SPEED AHEAD!!! Other than discussing the very exciting DAWN OF THE EDS, and the junkyard location it introduced, MUCH IS ALSO TO BE SAID about the Ed Edd n Eddy video games, merchandise, and at the end, we even found time to sit down and read from the Pigeon Post mailbag! -- I had a lot of fun editing a tech mishap (my laptop started to freeze while we were recording) around 14:55-16:00 into an attack from the Robot Rebel Ranchers. But feel free to skip that mini-radioplay if you JUST want to hear about the show.

Sally and Kevin are heading into Short King Spring with a Very Special Episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy where Eddy feels ashamed of his height and learns nothing in the end. YAHOO! Later in the episode, our gracious hosts briefly discuss Danny's proto-Ed Edd n Eddy shoe commercial "Adventures of Kung Shu," and then finally introduce the Pigeon Post mailbag segment!

It turns out Mark Rutte doesn't have the most unreliable memory in the Netherlands: that accolade goes to his trusty old Nokia 301. We digest the fall-out from Nokiagate and ask what happened to Rutte's promises of a more open style of government. Collective paralysis also seems to have afflicted the coronavirus response, with health experts warning of an autumn lockdown as minister Ernst Kuipers tells businesses to make their own pandemic control plans. The CBS warns of economic stagnation as the war in Ukraine and a chronic shortage of staff take their toll. And a homing pigeon proves that not all memories are prone to real-time archiving as it completes a 15-year round trip.

Did you know that Admiralty House Communications Museum was once a farmhouse? In this episode, folklorists Shannon Bateman and Alyson Small trace the domestic history of the property, its furry inhabitants, and the legacy of the Parsons family who cultivated the land for nearly fifty years. Settle in as we share stories of blossoming young love, Saturday afternoons spent baking, and a clever cow named Swiss – which all took place at the Bellview Farm. It's another episode of Pigeon Post, in cooperation with our friends at Admiralty House in Mount Pearl!

This week, we are handing over the podcast to Admiralty House Museum, in cooperation with Memorial University Folk6740 Public Folklore students! This episode of their Pigeon Post podcast centres on (purported) German spies in Newfoundland during World War I. The hosts discuss various stories about people of German ancestry, or people who were perceived to have German ties, who fell under suspicion and the consequences of this. The hosts also discuss rumour theory, the social and political climates that breed rumours, and the dangers of believing and spreading them blindly — in World War I and at all times.

Thinking through the motivation and purpose of this podcast.

Letters are intimate and a delight to receive. Thanks to their miraculous homing instincts, pigeons have a long and honourable track record delivering letters. The ancient Greeks sent them out to broadcast the names of victorious athletes at the original Olympic Games. And Julius Caesar employed pigeon post during his conquest of Gaul. In recent centuries, of course – ever since 1660, when King Charles II established the Post Office – the poor old pigeon's been somewhat edged out.  My guest today, thinks it's time to reintroduce Pigeon Post. Graphic designer John Morse-Brown is the creator of Pigeon, a line of stationery designed to revive the tradition of letter writing, updated for the modern age. They combine John's love of origami, great design, and his passion for bringing back the art of beautiful, intentional, personal written communication. John came up with the idea of Pigeon after falling out of love with social media. For all of the frenetic activity he and his friends were putting in, he felt wasn't fostering any genuine sense of connection. There was something about it that left him feeling hollow and empty. So he took the plunge and closed his social media accounts. But then a good friend of his moved from Britain to the USA. Until then, apart from trips to the pub (which were no longer possible), they'd only really communicated on Facebook, which meant John needed a new way of keeping in touch with his friend. That made him think about letters. Compared with posting online, letter writing creates quite a few hurdles: laying hands-on writing paper, finding an envelope, an address, a stamp. Then there's the tyranny of the empty page. How on earth do you start?   John realized he had the opportunity to reinvent the letter.  In this episode, we discuss: How John walked away from social media and revived letter writing to stay in contact with friendsHow communicating more narrowly and deeply transforms our message into something intimate and desirableHow delayed gratification enhances the experience of receiving communication, and increases its value to the giver and recipientHow communication doesn't have to be big, impressive, or unusual to be valuable and appreciated GO DEEPER Sign up at experiencejomo.com for gentle humor, powerful insights, and actionable tools for you to live joyfully online and off.  Favorite Quotes: “It feels like it's a product of joy.”“We may think we are more connected than ever… I think we're actually less connected because of the medium.”“There are so many little things you could talk about that fill you with joy, that are amazing, and they're all little, but together they form this experience that you just don't get in any other medium.” Follow John Morse-Brown: Pigeon Store: https://pigeonposted.comPigeon Feed Blog: https://pigeonposted.com/blog/Instagram: @realpigeonposted Follow JOMO:Instagram: @experience_jomo Call to ActionIf this episode sparked some new ideas, we would love your support.

Why Sola Scriptura? Why Sola Fide? Why do other versions of Christianity denounce these teachings. Michael tries to make sense of it while driving in the rain. Enjoy this episode of Pigeon Post!

1st episode of Pigeon Post, recorded while driving to work. If I receive a cure and don't share, how can I live with myself? This is me trying to start a conversation about the gospel (good news) of Jesus and how it affects my life. I hope this is a welcome conversation for all, no matter what you believe.

Today, we're talking pigeons, podcasts, and public history with the staff of the Admiralty House Communications Museum in Mount Pearl. Our guests are Sarah Wade, and Lauren Lambe. Sarah Wade is museum manager, and holds a BA in History/Archaeology, and an Honours in Applied Museum Studies from Algonquin College. Lauren Lambe is the museum's collection assistant, and is currently completing her Masters in Public History from University of Western Ontario. Together, they have created "Pigeon Post" -- a podcast produced by staff at Admiralty House. Through storytelling as well as oral history interviews, this podcast aims to keep the history of Admiralty House alive, while also focusing on elements of the community of Mount Pearl.

This week on Pigeon Post we feature an oral history interview done by Lynn McShane that talks about her grandfather, Tom Kane's experiences as a rescuer following the wreck of the SS Florizel.

Your patience is finally rewarded, with brand new WANTS A WORD... with Ian and Kev and Andre - not to mention some delightful creamy cones from Abdul. Creamy cones! Ha.

It's questions and queries galore as WAW gets back into the swing of things. Swinging sacks. LOL Follow @iancollinsuk and @sideshow_kev on Twitter, where very occasionally they'll tweet something that's of vague interest.
