Podcasts about Prequel

Der von mir sehnsüchtig erwartete 4. Band von Ragnar Jónassons Hulda-Trilogie ist ein Prequel – und zwar eins, das es in sich hat! Hulda soll als junge Polizistin eine neue Spur in einem 20 Jahre alten Fall verfolgen: Damals verschwand ein Baby spurlos. Jetzt ist der Teddy des Jungen in einer Anglerhütte aufgetaucht – und … „2397: Ragnar Jónasson – Hulda“ weiterlesen

The Hysteria team is off this week. But we're excited to bring you a recent episode of Assembly Required with Stacey Abrams.In the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, we've watched Republicans erode American democracy with alarming speed. While this political moment may feel unprecedented, it isn't new. America has dealt its share of far-right movements, fascist provocateurs, and anti-democratic threats. But time and again, heroes have risen to meet those moments. In this episode, Stacey unpacks how we've fought fascism before – and won. She's joined by the host of MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Prequel: An American Fight Against Fascism.Subscribe to Assembly Required wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Growing up, Kiese Laymon thought of himself as a city kid. But he spent his childhood with a foot in two worlds: his mom's house in the capital city of Jackson, Mississippi and his grandma's house in a rural country town.It wasn't until Kiese left Mississippi that he came to understand that this question of city versus country actually meant a lot more. It carries a lot of baggage: the tensions between north and south, tectonic historical forces, and the contradictions of life in Mississippi.In this episode, our producer Justine Paradis sits down with writer Kiese Laymon for a conversation on this question of country versus city, what that has to do with the history of Black life in this country, and the story of Kiese's first children's picture book, his latest in a lifelong exploration of a complicated love of Mississippi.Featuring Kiese Laymon.Produced by Justine Paradis.

This week, we're heading to “The Edge of the World” and to the limits of good taste, as we take on Dark Horse's most recent short story adaptation. This is the tale that taught us how elves like to hold grudges, sylvans enjoy playing with balls, and the people of Lower Posada really love their weed. We, on the other hand, are sticking with whiskey—Hudson Whiskey NY's “This is Your Favorite Whiskey,” to be specific. Yes, that's actually its name, and no, it doesn't prove to be our favorite whiskey. But that's okay since this short story isn't our favorite either, though it does prompt discussions over whether “bats” and “batses” are the same thing, if we ever wear togas around the house, and whether Geralt should really be associating with muppets.

Andor Staffel 2 (Disney+) | Wirklich das beste Star Wars seit den 80ern? Was bei der Ankündigung von „Andor“ im Jahr 2018 von vielen Fans zunächst eher belächelt wurde als „Prequel-Serie zum Prequel“, genießt heute mittlerweile den Ruf als ungewöhnlichste, aber womöglich auch beste Star Wars Live-Action Serie. Ursprünglich auf ganze fünf Staffeln ausgelegt, endete das Ganze nun bereits nach Staffel 2 mit dem nahtlosen Übergang in „Rogue One – A Star Wars Story“. Nach vier Episodenrecaps werfen unsere Podcast-Rebellen Johannes und Dom daher nicht nur nochmal den Blick zurück auf „Andor“ insgesamt, sondern auch, inwiefern die Serie als Vorspiel zum ersten Kino-Spin-Off von 2016 funktioniert. Und das geht natürlich weder vonstatten ohne massive Spoiler, noch einen ausgewiesenen Fan wie Valentin als Dritten im Bunde. An dieser Stelle bedanken wir uns außerdem herzlich bei allen Mitwirkenden und Zuhörenden, die uns im vergangenen Monat gelauscht haben, voller Hoffnung auf Originelles aus der weit, weit entfernten Galaxis. Und aus solcher entsteht ja bekanntermaßen Rebellion. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch! Trailer Werdet Teil unserer Community und besucht unseren Discord-Server!

Who's ready for another round? Having now seen The Witcher's second animated movie, we thought it would be fun to revisit its first one, 2021's Nightmare of the Wolf—and we brought new viewer Producer Sean along for the ride! How does this Vesemir-starring prequel hold up four years and two show seasons later? Does it still feel like The Witcher now that we've gotten a better feel for the franchise? And what's up with Geralt's hair? (Sadly, we don't yet have an answer for that last one.) Plus, to accompany this second viewing, Sean's made an all-new whiskey pairing…with a twist. Clean W by CleanCo is the first non-alcoholic whiskey we've sampled on the podcast, though if you think going the zero-proof route means we're any less unhinged, think again.

Prequel is launching a new developer-focused service aimed at democratizing software error detection—an area typically dominated by large cloud providers. Co-founded by Lyndon Brown and Tony Meehan, both former NSA engineers, Prequel introduces a community-driven observability approach centered on Common Reliability Enumerations (CREs). CREs categorize recurring production issues, helping engineers detect, understand, and communicate problems without reinventing solutions or working in isolation. Their open-source tools, cre and prereq, allow teams to build and share detectors that catch bugs and anti-patterns in real time—without exposing sensitive data, thanks to edge processing using WebAssembly.The urgency behind Prequel's mission stems from the rapid pace of AI-driven development, increased third-party code usage, and rising infrastructure costs. Traditional observability tools may surface symptoms, but Prequel aims to provide precise problem definitions and actionable insights. While observability giants like Datadog and Splunk dominate the market, Brown and Meehan argue that engineers still feel overwhelmed by data and underpowered in diagnostics—something they believe CREs can finally change.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest Observability insights Why Consolidating Observability Tools Is a Smart MoveBuilding an Observability Culture: Getting Everyone Onboard Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

This is a preview of a story exclusive to Little Stories Premium. The studio spiders have strongly advised against ever writing a prequel, but unfortunately their advice came too late. This story features Frog from the "Frog and Salamander" stories, but takes place before they met. Frog befriends Turtle, another aspiring writer who lives near Wormly Pond. He delights in the fact that they are on the same path, headed in the same direction. Then Turtle receives news that throws everything into question, and it suddenly seems the two friends are on very different paths in life. Listen in to hear what happens in this sweet tale of friendship and success.

Welcome back to our show where we once again return to the galaxy far far away this time for the second season of Andor. (Prequel series to the Rogue One movie).

We have opinions on it and all, likely will get a lot of hate for them but hey.. just opinions and thoughts... we welcome you all to listen and then share yours with us via our socials or directly via email: sam@stuffandthangspodcast.com

It was touch and go for a moment, but we've just about recovered from our first dive into The Witcher: Classic Collection. And that's a good thing because it's time to finish the book! The second three chapters are all based on classic Witcher short stories, so at least we know what we're in for…or so we thought! Why is that knight riding his horse up a giant stone dildo? Is that an Edgar Allan Poe cameo? What's up with the guy and his magic cat? And don't even get us going on the descriptively named cobbler in the final story! At least there's whisky this time around—the Icelandic Flóki Single Malt, which proves to be every bit the wild ride as the book we've paired it with.

The Friends journey into the brutal heart of Christopher Buehlman's The Daughter's War, the grimdark prequel to The Blacktongue Thief. They unpack the stark tonal shift between the two novels—where Buehlman trades snark for sorrow, and swagger for survival. The spotlight falls on Galva, whose stoic presence in The Blacktongue Thief is given heartbreaking depth as her backstory unfolds through war, trauma, and fractured family loyalties. From hive-minded goblins to the emotional cost of legacy, the hosts explore what makes The Daughter's War such a powerful, if punishing, read—and why some readers might not be ready for just how dark this prequel gets.   Watch on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@friendstalkingfantasy

Welcome to the Infinite Taylorverse!  Here at the Infinite Taylorverse, we talk about all things nerdy and pop culture! Movies, TV, cartoons, comics, books, video games, tabletop games, and so much more! We talk about the latest pop culture news as well as rumors and fan theories.  Be advised that spoilers are eminent! In this, our 217th episode, we discuss the latest Avengers Doomsday rumors and news!  We talk about an upcoming prequel novel to James Gunn's Superman movie!  We talk about something scary that could be coming to a galaxy far far away, and so much more!  As always, thanks for strapping in for a ride through The Infinite Taylorverse!

This week, we travel back to 1993 as we dive into The Witcher: Classic Collection, a new graphic novel compilation of Geralt's earliest comic book adventures. And since neither of us were old enough to drink in the early '90s, we're discussing this book sober! Well, the first half of it at any rate, which proves to be an unwise choice because the first two stories…aren't great. How does an oversized, non-speaking earwig have its own gang of thieves? What is Dandelion doing hanging out with a bunch of sheep? And do not get us started on how Geralt got his famous white hair! Be smarter than us and pour yourself a strong one before hitting play, as we navigate this weird, wild and at times strangely homoerotic Witcher world.

This week, we're watching prequels that don't suck! We're diving into the gritty brilliance of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and the high-octane madness of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, exploring how these films expand their legendary universes and deliver serious cinematic punch. Forget tired tropes, these prequels rule!#moviepodcast #starwars #madmax #rogueoneastarwarsstory #rogueone #furiosaamadmaxsaga #furiosa #andor #andorseason2 #disneyplus #disney #roadwarrior #prequel #garethedwards #georgemiller #behindthescene Hosted on Acast.

April 13, 2025 [Speaker: Pastor John Sitcler] – Holy Week (Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter) is a special time for Christians around the world.  Holy Week also has important implications for those who have yet to surrender their lives to the Lord.  Whether you are new to church and Christianity or you know everything there is to know about Holy Week, God wants to connect with you in a special way during these important holidays.  We will explore the real-life events of the season in order to discover how the Lord wants to work in our lives.

Good News from God's Messenger Mark: Finding Our Life in Christ

This Week in Geek we have a quick review of the newest Hunger Games novel, Sunrise on the Reaping.  Also, a quick preview of what I'm reading next, my favorite dessert AND featuring a trailer from an excellent podcast: Total Conundrum.

In 2025, the chemists want to tackle both the science and practical application of skincare. Following the ectoin deep dive, the chemists review two ectoin products so you don't have to. Products were chosen to showcase the diverse landscape of ectoin skicnare. This episode was recorded before the launch of Prequel's latest Ectoin cream. We discuss our thoughts on the texture and use experience from both the oily skin and dry skin perspective. 

We've read The Witcher: Ronin and we have questions! Sadly, we don't know any actual ronin that we can approach for answers, but we do know someone with “ronin” in her Instagram name (which is basically the same thing, right?). This week, we welcome back our good friend Gosia, aka Ronin of Rivia, for a deep dive into the world of the Witcher manga. How much do witchers actually have in common with ronin samurai? Why is a yuki onna the perfect adversary for this version of Geralt? And are there any Japanese monsters she'd have liked to see? Plus, she reveals some intriguing details hidden within CDPR's Witcher: Ronin statues, shares a few juicy rumors and even offers her non-spoiler thoughts on Crossroads of Ravens—since she's one of the few people we know who's read it! Find Ronin of Rivia on Instagram at @ronin_of_rivia and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/roninofrivia.

This week, we travel back to the Dark Ages to dissect the love story between a vampire and a lycan, or more importantly, the plot of the 2009 Underworld prequel, UNDERWORLD: RISE OF THE LYCANS. A story of forbidden love, angry fathers and the wildest s*x you'll ever see on a cliff. RISE OF THE LYCANS tells the story of founding lycan Lucian and his vampire love Sonja, as they face the wrath of her father Viktor and a brewing lycan uprising. Will it make us RISE up for the lycans or stand on the side of the blood suckers? Also, is this a good prequel? Does it help build on the lore of this world? Lets try to find out, this week on the Dissect That Film Podcast #197. Check out our other show THE MONSTER ZONE!

We've woken up in some strange places on occasion, though Geralt definitely has us beat with the ancient Japan-inspired world of The Witcher: Ronin. In this 2022 manga, the monster hunter finds himself on a very different path, fighting creatures inspired by Japanese folklore in his pursuit of a mysterious white-haired woman. Fortunately, our search for the perfect whiskey pairing proved much simpler—Legent Kentucky Straight Bourbon, an east-meets-west collaboration that's well suited for enjoying alongside this equally cross-cultural comic. Plus, we discover why you'd better have some cucumbers on you before you start messing with kappas, ponder whether we'd be able to fight a dragon and remind our silver-haired samurai (and the creators of his debut adventure) that no one likes feeling unfulfilled at the end.

In our third and final Hunger Games episode (for now!), Andrew, Pam, and Eric review the second prequel in The Hunger Games series, 'Sunrise on the Reaping' starring Haymitch Abernathy. All of us are very impressed by how Suzanne Collins wove together a compelling new story that adds a lot to the characters who we adore. We breakdown the overall arc of the book, the new and old characters we're introduced to, what else we would like to see Collins right about in future books, and so much more. This episode is spoiler heavy, so we recommend reading Sunrise on the Reaping before you dive into the episode! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If you haven't listened already, go back and check out Part One. When you hear 'space race' you probably (correctly) think about the 1960s Soviet Union v. U.S. race to put an astronaut on the Moon. But a few hundred years before, the space race was all about Venus. About twice every century we here on Earth get to see Venus pass in the front of the Sun. Back the 18th and 19th centuries, this was a Big Deal. At the time, all astronomers wanted to be the first to use the transit of Venus to figure out the distance between the Earth and the Sun. In Part Two we're bringing you more adventures to observe the transit and talking about what the result (or lack of results) meant for astronomy.Thanks to our guests in this episode: Ted Rafferty, formerly of the United States Naval Observatory Dr. Samantha Thompson, Astronomy Curator - National Air and Space Museum Find the transcript here.AirSpace is created by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum with generous support from Lockheed Martin.

What was once lost is now found. And for that, we can only say...we're sorry! It's our first side quest of the season and we're dishing up over a dozen never before heard podcast moments from over the past two years. These were conversations, tangents and the occasional meltdown that we sadly had to cut for time, even though they resulted in some of the biggest laughs we've ever had behind the mics! If that's not enough to entice you, many feature past guests—including Joanna Estep and Ronin of Rivia—a few offer unique glimpses behind the scenes, and at least one of them includes Valerie singing about mermaid sex. Plus, this entire episode was recorded AFTER last week's, which means we start things off pretty lit and they only get more unhinged from there.

Jenna Bush Hager sits down with her twin sister, Barbara, and their mother, former first lady Laura Bush, for a conversation about parenting, childhood memories, and Jenna and Barbara's new children's book I Loved You First. Also, NBC's Joe Fryer catches up with the author of the book Wicked as he prepares to release a new book, Elphie, about the childhood years of Elphaba before she sets off to college and beyond. Plus, lifestyle expert Makho Ndlovu shares some of the biggest sales and best deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale kickoff.

Van Harden, former WHO radio host of 35 years, shares his journey of faith and insights from his book "Jesus, the Prequel." He explains how understanding Jesus' existence before Bethlehem transformed his perspective on scripture and deepened his relationship with Christ.• Living faith authentically in secular radio without explicit rules• Discovering Jesus in Old Testament "Christophanies" like the fourth person in the fiery furnace• Finding Jesus from Genesis to Revelation changes how we read the entire Bible• Seeing others as they were on their birth day helps love difficult people• Circling and claiming God's promises throughout scripture• Showing kindness by genuinely thanking people for their important workConnect with Van

When you hear 'space race' you probably (correctly) think about the 1960s Soviet Union v. U.S. race to put an astronaut on the Moon. But a few hundred years before, the space race was all about Venus. Twice every century or so we here on Earth get to see Venus pass in front of the Sun (with proper eye protection. Don't stare at the Sun, kids.) Back in the 18th and 19th centuries, this was a Big Deal. At the time, all astronomers wanted to be part of the effort to use the transit of Venus to figure out the distance between the Earth and the Sun. And to claim that astronomical victory for their respective empire. In Part One we're talking about the astronomical breakthroughs that made scientists and adventurers flock to the 1761 transit. Thanks to our guests in this episode:  Ted Rafferty, formerly of the United States Naval Observatory Dr. Samantha Thompson, Astronomy Curator-National Air and Space Museum Find the transcript here.Sign up here for the monthly AirSpace newsletterAirSpace is created by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum with generous support from Lockheed Martin.

Brand extensions? Prequel? Janet Bond?? Rob Long bets meetings at Amazon are underway with those bullet points in a PowerPoint now that the franchise has been wrested away from its legendarily impossible owners, the Broccolis. Corporate-controlled and obligated by fiduciary responsibility, 007 has secured the plot of his next adventure: shaking every last dime out of his Savile Row suit. Transcript here.
