Richard Scheib's A Viewing Guide to the Pandemic (Headpress, 2025) is a film book like no other. It opens with the author's first-hand account of the Covid-19 pandemic and life in lockdown. His sense of dread, and anxiety about his state of health, were experiences shared with millions of others across the world. For author Richard Scheib, already committed to writing a book about plagues and pandemics in popular culture, Covid-19 felt like a perverse twist of fate. Media depictions of deadly contagions had, to this point, been speculative and often off the mark; his book takes an in-depth look at what filmmakers imagined would happen and contrasts it with the reality. International in scope, A Viewing Guide to the Pandemic examines films in a wide variety of genres, from the silent era to the present day. Black Death, Ebola, Mad Cow Disease, Bird Flu -- it explores fictionalized accounts of plague and pestilence such as box-office hit Outbreak (1995), as well as documentary treatments of real-life incidents. Whether the threats depicted have a basis in reality -- the biowarfare of the Cold War era, for instance -- or are, like zombies and vampires, more fantastical, Scheib demonstrates how the fear of contagion has provided a wealth of inspiration for the big and small screen. In addition to his work on the pandemic, Scheib runs Moria Reviews where he posts reviews for horror, science fiction, and fantasy films. Learn more about your ad choices.

A person in Arizona recently died of pneumonic plague which is a rare and severe form of a flea-borne disease.

The Plague of Sin Sermon SeriesSin is a simple concept, but it has many facets that work together to help us see the complete picture and why it is so serious. The Bible uses several different words and word pictures to help us understand sin fully. It is important for us to grasp these words and concepts to fully understand the depths of our sin, and to then appreciate more deeply the rescue of Jesus' salvation. Every way that sin infects our soul, Jesus cures through His saving work. Join us as we look deeply at what God teaches us about sin in the Bible and the beauty of our salvation that frees us from each aspect of sin.Pastor Kenny White preaches from the Prior Lake Campus.

The sermon centers on the importance of intercessory prayer and proactive ministry in the face of spiritual apathy and impending judgment, drawing parallels from the biblical account of Aaron's response to the rebellion of Korah and the Israelites. It emphasizes the urgency of sharing the gospel, particularly with younger generations, as a means of sanctifying God and preventing eternal loss, rather than relying on personal comfort or resignation. The message underscores the call to actively engage in soul-winning, recognizing that every moment presents an opportunity to lead others to reconciliation with God and avoid the consequences of spiritual neglect.

Habakkuk 3:1-19A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. On shigionoth.[a]2 Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord.Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.3 God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran.[b]His glory covered the heavens and his praise filled the earth.4 His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden.5 Plague went before him; pestilence followed his steps.6 He stood, and shook the earth; he looked, and made the nations tremble.The ancient mountains crumbled and the age-old hills collapsed— but he marches on forever.7 I saw the tents of Cushan in distress, the dwellings of Midian in anguish.8 Were you angry with the rivers, Lord? Was your wrath against the streams?Did you rage against the sea when you rode your horses and your chariots to victory?9 You uncovered your bow, you called for many arrows.You split the earth with rivers;10 the mountains saw you and writhed.Torrents of water swept by; the deep roared and lifted its waves on high.11 Sun and moon stood still in the heavens at the glint of your flying arrows, at the lightning of your flashing spear.12 In wrath you strode through the earth and in anger you threshed the nations.13 You came out to deliver your people, to save your anointed one.You crushed the leader of the land of wickedness, you stripped him from head to foot.14 With his own spear you pierced his head when his warriors stormed out to scatter us,gloating as though about to devour the wretched who were in hiding.15 You trampled the sea with your horses, churning the great waters.16 I heard and my heart pounded, my lips quivered at the sound;decay crept into my bones, and my legs trembled.Yet I will wait patiently for the day of calamity to come on the nation invading us.17 Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines,though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food,though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls,18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.19 The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights.For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.

In this powerful episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we sit down with writer and grieving mother Annie Peppiatt, and placental researcher Sharanam Soni, to explore the devastating reality of stillbirth, the silent epidemic of placenta-related complications, and the hope rising through pioneering medical research into delayed villous maturation (DVM). Annie shares the raw and deeply personal story of losing her daughter, Ness, at 38 weeks of pregnancy, despite a previously healthy pregnancy. She speaks candidly about the trauma, guilt, and the haunting “what ifs” that plague so many bereaved mothers. We also explore her healing journey, including the inception of the Ness Fund, which now supports life-saving research into placental disorders at Tommy's. Sharanam, a passionate reproductive science researcher, brings a unique perspective to the discussion - explaining the science behind delayed villous maturation, why it's so under-researched, and how this work could help identify at-risk pregnancies before it's too late. This is an essential listen for: Parents who've experienced stillbirth or miscarriage Advocates of maternal and fetal health Health professionals seeking to understand grief and placental pathology Anyone navigating pregnancy after loss, reproductive trauma, or infertility Together, Annie and Sharanam are changing the narrative - from silence to science, from grief to legacy.

London is a city of layers. Roman roads. Saxon graves. Plague pits and forgotten tunnels. But beneath the cobblestones and catacombs… something howls. In this six-part limited series from The Devil Within, we journey through centuries of urban legends, cryptid sightings, and historical anomalies to ask: What really stalks the streets and shadows of England's capital? From werewolves in Camberwell to the vampire panic of Highgate, each episode digs into chilling eyewitness accounts, forgotten folklore, and suppressed rituals. These aren't just stories—they're patterns. Something is beneath London. Something old. Something watching.
In this explosive episode of Ninjas Are Butterflies, we dive headfirst into the rising tensions that could ignite WWIII and what the mainstream media isn't telling you. We also uncover a forgotten plague that mysteriously vanished from history books, but may be making a quiet return.

Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! This is an episode about a plague that killed up to 100 million people by the time it was done—as many as 60% of its victims. It's the first documented occurrence of a pandemic that we have, and it's the first documented outbreak of the deadlyYersinia pestis. No, we're not talking about the Black Death of Medieval Europe. We're talking about the Plague of Justinian. The Plague of Justinian was just one part of the fallout of the global volcanic eruption of 536 AD. Three eyewitness accounts have survived--and, in the grand tradition of this podcast, we decided to read them to you whilst Yule-level drunk. Buckle up. It is a wild, plague-tastic ride.

London is a city of layers. Roman roads. Saxon graves. Plague pits and forgotten tunnels. But beneath the cobblestones and catacombs… something howls. In this six-part limited series from The Devil Within, we journey through centuries of urban legends, cryptid sightings, and historical anomalies to ask: What really stalks the streets and shadows of England's capital? From werewolves in Camberwell to the vampire panic of Highgate, each episode digs into chilling eyewitness accounts, forgotten folklore, and suppressed rituals. These aren't just stories—they're patterns. Something is beneath London. Something old. Something watching.
On this New Movie Monday we return back to an England overrun by the Rage Virus Plague. We discuss the newest addition to the franchise and mythology since 28 Days Later, the new evolution and super powers of the Rage Virus Zombies, and the many versions of family in the Apocalypse. This is a huge movie that shoves in a lot of ideas and even some insane camp. Make sure you see this one on the biggest screen possible! Synopsis: A group of survivors of the rage virus live on a small island. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors.

It's the end of everything! Welcome back to Part 2 of our season finale featuring Dr. Charles Liu, co-host Allen Liu, and our guest archaeology expert and author, Hannah Liu, MEd. (If you haven't caught up to Part 1, we highly recommend you do before embarking on the next leg of this journey! Listen here or wherever you get your podcasts!) We pick right up where we left off, with the next question from our audience. Daniela asks, “If a black hole hits the Sun, will Earth be destroyed?” Chuck explains a few ways a black hole can mess with our day, including the fact that long before any actual collision took place, the Sun would start shedding material that would destroy us. He compares that unlikely event to the actual example of cosmic destruction we're watching in NGC 4676 – aka “The Mice” – which are two galaxies swirling together in a death spiral playing out over hundreds of millions of years. Naturally, this leads Chuck to ponder what happens when civilizations fall apart here on Earth, and Hannah brings up the collapse of the Roman Empire. As she explains, “the fall of Rome happened a lot of times, and also, no time.” From 44 BCE and the assassination of Julius Caesar, to the 476 invasion and conquest of Rome by the Germanic tribes denoted by Edward Gibbon in The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, to the fact ever since nations have claimed to be the descendants or inheritors of Rome. Chuck points out the influence of Gibbon's book on Isaac Asimov's “Foundation” series, followed by a very quick romp through “Decline and Fall of America” literature including The Handmaid's Tale, A Canticle for Liebowitz, Man in the High Castle, and the zombie apocalypse tour de force, World War Z. Then it's time for another question from the audience: Michael says, “I heard that scientists brought back a dire wolf. Could they bring back dinosaurs or animals that could destroy us all?” It turns out, these resurrected animals are just gray wolves that have been engineered to have some characteristics of the extinct predator. It's still a pretty impressive feat, though, and you'll hear how they collected bits and pieces of dire wolf DNA to “resurrect them.” Allen also brings up similar modification experiments they're doing on chickens to make them more dinosaur-like. Allen points out that bioengineered germs are far more likely to cause our destruction than resurrected dinosaurs, regardless of the world envisioned in the Jurassic Park franchise. And speaking of Michael Crichton, Chuck gives us a breakdown of his sci-fi classic, The Andromeda Strain, about bacteria from space that cause a biological outbreak here on Earth. Hannah points out that historically, some of the biggest killers of human beings have been plagues. She gives us a guided tour of the bubonic plagues, from the Black Death, which may have wiped out as much as 60% of the population of Europe, to the Plague of Justinian a thousand years earlier that killed as many as 100 million people, while also name dropping the Antonine Plague and the Spanish Flu!) And that's it Season 4 of The LIUniverse. Stay tuned for Season 5 after the summer.

#WeirdDarknessRadio WEEK OF JUNE 15, 2025: During the Black Death, medieval Europeans bathed in vinegar, slept on rotting straw, dumped waste in the streets — and still couldn't figure out why everyone was dying.==========HOUR ONE: During the bubonic plague in the early Middle-Ages, those who became sick and were even suspected of having the plague, were forced to relocate to a quarantined island – Poveglia Island. The gruesomeness that took place there still continues today, with the island being illegal to visit – and reportedly, very haunted. (Inside Black Plague Island) *** We look at some of the bathing – and lack thereof – that took place during the bubonic plague, as well as some of the beliefs they had about diet and how it might protect from contagion. Some of the ideas of what people thought could protect them from the disease are nothing short of shocking. (Living With The Black Death)==========HOUR TWO: About 80 years after the black plague began, a different plague came upon England – a fatal one that would cause you to almost instantly perspire to death. (Death By Sweat) *** Most everyone is familiar with the plague in Europe in the early 1400s – but in the early 1900s it struck again. This time in San Francisco. If you've not heard that before, it could be because the U.S. government tried to cover it up. (The Plague of San Francisco) *** Of all the imagery that comes to mind when hearing the words “bubonic plague” the most prevalent is most certainly that of the doctors – and the odd, bird-like masks they would wear. Why they dressed that way is interesting – but what the doctors did while wearing those suits and in their labs as they tried to battle the illness is absolutely horrifying. (Plague Doctors) *** And it probably comes as no surprise that something so deadly and horrific as the black plague would leave behind some residual paranormal energy – and boy is there a lot of it. (A Plague of Ghosts)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: We look at some of the bathing – and lack thereof – that took place during the bubonic plague, as well as some of the beliefs they had about diet and how it might protect from contagion. Some of the ideas of what people thought could protect them from the disease are nothing short of shocking. (Living With The Black Death – CONTINUED) *** Europe just could not escape plagues of any kind – for example, the plague that made you, against your will, keep dancing until you dropped dead.

Plague, war, regicide, famine, revolt – during the 14th century, life for people in England was turned on its head. Historian Helen Carr charts this extraordinarily turbulent period through the lives of three very different monarchs, each with their own idea of what it meant to wield power. Exploring the humanity of those on the throne, she speaks to Emily Briffett to shed new light on this pivotal period of English history, and the people who lived through it.
