In culture and the arts, labeling something you don't like (or don't understand) "pretentious" is the easy way out. It's a conversation killer, implying that any dialogue is pointless, and those who disagree are merely duped by what you've cleverly discerned as a charade. It's akin to cynically revealing that a magic show is all smoke and mirrors—as if creative vision doesn't necessitate a leap of faith. In this episode, Phil and JF explore the nuances of pretentiousness, distinguishing between its fruitful and hollow forms. They argue that the real gamble, and inherent value, of daring to pretend lies in recognizing that imagination is an active contributor to, rather than a detractor from, reality.

Episode 159-Pretentious Much? Some emotions lead us places we don't want to go. If a person has even a little bit of pride, likely it won't stay small. If pride is not dealt with, it will introduce a bolder and more arrogant emotion called pretension into our lives. Pretension is what leads us into strongholds and then to addictions. In this episode I tell you what pretension is, why it is dangerous and how God wants us to counteract it. You'll also learn in eight steps how strongholds are created and how they are broken.

West African francophone countries shave a complex interrelated history. Having gone through slavery, colonization and reaching independence within the same decade, today they are politically, and economically interwined through two main regional institutions, namely ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States), and WAEMU (West African Economic and Monetary Union). However, despite the end of colonialism, France still maintains a strong presence in these countries and some of them have been witnessed an unprecedented level of insecurity in recent years. Raïssa Zoungrana a fellow at the African Leadership Centre with an interest in security issues in West Africa or the Sahel, discusses how different actors in Francophone countries are pretending to resolve the situation.

Original Air Date - 10/21/11 - Welcome back to Movie Matchup - The Pretension and part three of Brad and Troy's celebration of Spooktober. This week, our duo venture into high concept cinema and tackle a couple of films that are known for their visual presentation. With this type of material, Brad and Troy had to find a guest with some credentials to help them dissect these visual treats. The Pretension was lucky enough to find Kent Atkinson, a graduate from California State University, Long Beach, and convince him to jump on the show for some movie talk. This film connoisseur not only holds a degree in Film and Electronic Arts but also works for Technicolor. Join Brad, Troy, and Kent for a very crazy conversation about some illogical and insane foreign movies in Movie Matchup - The Pretension #5: WTF Cinema
In this week's episode: Stephen has moved into his new place and reveals how a certain madam flat-plack is proving to be a tricky mistress. Ryan is struggling with the heatwave and ponders some big questions on the history of egging. Producer Paul is back and talks about the time he was underwhelmed when Stephen dragged him to a fancy bakery. Ryan has turned this week's feature into gold (potentially for the second time) as he questions the team's knowledge on the precious metal in a game he likes to call the Ry-das touch. Email us: dodgingdeathpodcast@gmail.com Follow us on Instagram: @dodgingdeathpodcast Follow Stephen on Instagram: @stephenwilliams.jr Stephen's website: www.stephenwilliamsjr.com About the show: Dodging Death is an improvised weekly comedy podcast, hosted by Stephen Williams Jr and Ryan Paton. Join them for an hour of generally uninformed, irrelevant chat - where they discuss topics such as being an accidental Peeping Tom, sleeping in the same room as Mother Teresa, and getting shouted at by Santa. Stephen is an openly gay, cruise ship magician - and is proud to be at the front of that much underrepresented part of society. He is often heard regaling anecdotes such as how he found himself as a performer on a swingers cruise, his lowest life moment being with Paul Daniel's son at a patisserie in Brazil, and how he tried to blend in at an Australian dive bar. In hindsight, the floral shirt and exposed ankles were a mistake. Ryan has been Stephen's best friend since they first met at 11 years old and shared a communal love for the anecdote. He is the marketing manager for an afternoon tea company, is yet to attend a none catastrophic yoga class, and once got heckled by an eleven year old for being too scared to go on a water slide. He's also openly hetero, although his constant praise of ABBA could lead you to believe otherwise.
Welcome to the 2nd episode in Movie Matchup - The Pretension's epic Spooktober! If you're looking for insightful discussion on sparkly, shiny vampires, you've come to the wrong place.

It will not cost you anything extra, and I can not see who purchased what. Chifox are a British creation which was began by a Mr. O. Millsum back in 1916. Millsum was breeding Beverens for commercial purposes when he came upon the idea of creating a breed with a long coat of fur that resembled the fur of the true Arctic Fox. Millsum was one of the founders and president of the National Chinchilla Rabbit Club, and it is said that he built the largest rabbitry in the British Isles for the breed, but resigned as president and sold his Westwood strain of Chinchillas to concentrate on his Chifox breeding program. Mr. Millsum was most secretive in his breeding program, but authorities believe that Chinchilla, Beveren, Silver Fox (Silver Martens) and Angora were all used in the breed's genetic makeup. After ten years of breeding , Millsum's goals were nearing fruition, as he had produced the Chifox in white, blue, sable, silver, smoke, chinchilla grey, and squirrel grey. Two pelts were shown to expert furriers in January 1928, and their remarks were that the fur was quite suitable for trimmings of dresses, coats, and evening cloaks, and more! The only fur of the time that came close to the Chifox was the Siberian Hare know in the trade as Foxaline. However, only the flank portions could be used effectivly. The major drawback to the hare fur was the very poor wearing qualities, being paper-thin and brittle. Chifox were shown for the first time to the general public at the British Fur Rabbit Society Show held at the Royal Horticultural Hall in Westminster on December 1928, to an amazing reception by both fanciers and the fur trade. The coat was to be approximately two and a half inches in length, and not at all woolly, nor did the coat have a tendency toward matting. Texture of the coat was like any normal fur rabbit. This beautiful rabbit is now extinct. Word of the week: Pretension Plant of the week: Cauliflower Rabbit and Fox http://www.ilhawaii.net/~stony/lore40.html Native American Lore One winter Rabbit was going along through the snow when he saw Fox. It was too late to hide, for Fox had caught Rabbit's scent. "I am Ongwe Ias, the one who eats you!" barked Fox. "Yon cannot escape me!" Rabbit began to run for his life. He ran as fast as he could around trees and between rocks, making a great circle in the hope that he would lose Fox. But when he looked back he saw that Fox was gaining on him. "I am Ongwe Ias," Fox barked again. "You cannot escape." Rabbit knew that he had to use his wits. He slipped off his moccasins and said, "Run on ahead of me." The moccasins began to run, leaving tracks in the snow. Then, using his magic power, Rabbit made himself look like a dead, half-rotten rabbit and lay down by the trail. When Fox came to the dead rabbit, he did not even stop to sniff at it. "This meat has gone bad," he said. Then, seeing the tracks that led on through the snow he took up the chase again and finally caught up with Rabbit's old moccasins. "Hah," Fox snarled, "this time he has fooled me. Next time I will eat the meat no matter how rotten it looks." He began to backtrack. Just as he expected when he came to the place where the dead rabbit had been, it was gone. There were tracks leading away through the bushes, and Fox began to follow them. He hadn't gone far when he came upon an old woman sitting by the trail. In front of her was a pot, and she was making a stew. "Sit down, grandson," she said. "Have some of this good stew." Fox sat down. "Have you seen a rabbit go by?" "Yes," said the old woman, handing him a beautifully carved wooden bowl filled with hot stew. "I saw a very skinny rabbit go by. There was no flesh on his bones, and he looked old and tough." "I am going to eat that rabbit," said Fox. "Indeed?" said the old woman. "You will surely do so, for the rabbit looked tired and frightened. He must have known you were close behind him. Now eat the good stew I have given you." Fox began to eat and, as he did so, he looked at the old woman. "Why do you wear those two tall feathers on your head, old woman?" he asked. "These feathers?" said the old woman. "I wear them to remind me of my son who is a hunter. Look behind you--here he comes now." Fox turned to look and, as he did so, the old woman threw off her blankets and leaped high in the air. She went right over Fox's head and hit him hard with a big stick that had been hidden under the blankets. When Fox woke up his head was sore. He looked for the stew pot, but all he could see was a hollow stump. He looked for the wooden soup bowl, but all he could find was a folded piece of bark with mud and dirty water in it. All around him were rabbit tracks. "So, he has fooled me again," Fox said. "It will be the last time." He jumped up and began to follow the tracks once more. Before he had gone far he came to a man sitting by the trail. The man held a turtle-shell rattle in his hand and was dressed as a medicine man. "Have you seen a rabbit go by?" asked Fox. "Indeed," said the medicine man, "and he looked sick and weak." "I am going to eat that rabbit," Fox said. "Ah," said the medicine man, "that is why he looked so afraid. When a great warrior like you decides to catch someone, surely he cannot escape." Fox was very pleased. "Yes," he said, "I am Ongwe Ias. No rabbit alive can escape me." "But, Grandson," said the medicine man, shaking his turtle-shell rattle, "what has happened to your head? You are hurt." "It is nothing," said the Fox. "A branch fell and struck me." "Grandson," said the medicine man, "you must let me treat that wound, so that it heals quickly. Rabbit cannot go far. Come here and sit down." Fox sat down, and the medicine man came close to him. He opened up his pouch and began to sprinkle something into the wound. Fox looked closely at the medicine man. "Why are you wearing two feathers?" he asked. "These two feathers," the medicine man answered, "show that I have great power. I just have to shake them like this, and an eagle will fly down. Look, over there! An eagle is flying down now." Fox looked and, as he did so, the medicine man leaped high in the air over Fox's head and struck him hard with his turtle-shell rattle. When Fox woke up, he was alone in a small clearing. The wound on his head was full of burrs and thorns, the medicine man was gone, and all around him were rabbit tracks. "I will not be fooled again!" Fox snarled. He gave a loud and terrible war cry. "I am Ongwe Ias," he shouted. "I am Fox!" Ahead of him on the trail, Rabbit heard Fox's war cry. He was still too tired to run and so he turned himself into an old dead tree. When Fox came to the tree he stopped. "This tree must be Rabbit," he said, and he struck at one of the small dead limbs. It broke off and fell to the ground. "No," said Fox, "I am wrong. This is indeed a tree." He ran on again, until he realized the tracks he was following were old ones. He had been going in a circle. "That tree!" he said. He hurried back to the place where the tree had been. It was gone, but there were a few drops of blood on the ground where the small limb had fallen. Though Fox didn't know it, the branch he had struck had been the end of Rabbit's nose, and ever since then rabbits' noses have been quite short. Leading away into the bushes were fresh rabbit tracks. "Now I shall catch you!" Fox shouted. Rabbit was worn out. He had used all his tricks, and still Fox was after him. He came to a dead tree by the side of the trail. He ran around it four times and then, with one last great leap, lumped into the middle of some blackberry bushes close by. Then, holding his breath, he waited. Fox came to the dead tree and looked at the rabbit tracks all around it. "Hah," Fox laughed, "you are trying to trick me again." He bit at the dead tree, and a piece of rotten wood came away in his mouth. "Hah," Fox said, "you have even made yourself taste like a dead tree. But I am Ongwe Ias, I am Fox. You cannot fool me again." Then, coughing and choking, Fox ate the whole tree. From his hiding place in the blackberry bushes, Rabbit watched and tried not to laugh. When Fox had finished his meal he went away, still coughing and choking and not feeling well at all. After a time, Rabbit came out of his hiding place and went on his way.

Redundantly Multilingual Pretension Markers in BWFSEDPRCLCEE; by Saszkwacz Qumkwaat & Yýŷỳ Yẙÿẙÿẙ; From Volume CLV, Number 4, of Speculative Grammarian, February 2009 — After generating minimal interest in linguistic circles during the 1960’s, very little linguistic attention has been paid to a once semi-(in)famous dialect of English, namely Beret-Wearing, Finger-Snapping, Espresso-Drinking, Poetry-Reading, Cafe-Lounging Culturally Elite English (commonly abbreviated BWFSEDPRCLCEE).
