So why is this 85-year-old building bursting at the seams with spirits and specters? The answer to that is not any easy one to give.  (The Haunted Smethwick Baths) *** They look strange, there's a weird otherworldliness to them, when encountered people often find the've lost hours of time with no memory, and the beings are often known to abduct people in the middle of the night.

Ripley's Believe It Or Not - 1 Minute Episodes xx-xx-xx (171) Act of Patriotism

Economist Daniel Altman — who publishes the Daniel Altman's High Yield Economics newsletter — says that the Federal Reserve and its chairman Jerome Powell provided more certainty than the market was expecting on Wednesday by effectively confirming that fighting inflation, rather than unemployment, is Job One. That means interest rates will stay higher for longer, with cuts not occurring until late this year or into 2026. Altman worries about the potential for stagflation and says that the job market may be weaker than the numbers are suggesting, but he does believe the worst-case outcomes can be avoided with appropriate policy decisions. Charlie Ripley, senior investment strategist at Allianz Investment Management, says that the soft economic data like consumer confidence suggests that the economy is headed into a big slowdown, but the hard data isn't validating the biggest worries yet. Ripley says fundamentals remain strong, and that there are some plusses — like falling energy prices — that have been overlooked amid the dire headlines. Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, makes a brand new fund that is focused on hedge-fund activity his "ETF of the Week," noting the fund's potential for diversifying the average portfolio and for running against market trends.

Case and Sam are joined by DJ Nik to revivify some Xenomorphs!   Overview   In the latest episode of the Another Pass podcast, hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea, along with guest DJ Nik, delve into the complexities of "Alien Resurrection," the fourth installment of the renowned Alien franchise. They discuss the film's controversial elements, including its scientific plausibility, character dynamics, and Joss Whedon's unique screenplay style. The conversation highlights the film's shift towards a more campy tone and examines the visual aesthetics brought by director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, particularly the impressive underwater sequences. The hosts critique the character motivations and propose improvements, with Sam suggesting clearer intentions for the scientists and more depth for the space pirates, while Nick proposes focusing primarily on the scientists and Ripley in a more claustrophobic setting. Case adds ideas for restructuring the narrative arc to enhance suspense. The episode concludes with a tease for their next discussion covering "Highlander 2: The Quickening."   Notes Introduction to Alien Resurrection Discussion (00:00 - 10:27) Case Aiken and Sam Alicea host Another Pass podcast with guest DJ Nik They're discussing Alien Resurrection, the fourth film in the Alien franchise Nik introduces himself as a host of multiple podcasts including Whiskey and Cigarettes Case positions this film as less respected than Alien 3, which he previously defended Nick describes his love for the franchise, noting the Xenomorph as 'the greatest creature ever created' He appreciates how each film in the franchise has different directors with different visual styles Sam admits she only watched the Alien films because of the podcast, as she's 'afraid of everything' Plot Elements and Science Issues (10:27 - 20:35) The group discusses the questionable science of cloning Ripley to harvest the alien inside her The movie is set 200 years after Alien 3, with Ripley having died in the previous film Sam suggests the genetic material might have been recovered like in Jurassic Park Case notes the first three films maintained scientific plausibility while this one stretches credibility The movie explores Ripley as a superhuman hybrid, shifting the franchise toward sci-fi adventure Nick points out that Sigourney Weaver was brought back as the flagship character Case questions the scientists' motives for bringing the aliens to Earth Characters and Crew Dynamic (20:35 - 30:37) The movie features a crew of space pirates rather than soldiers or workers as in previous films Sam notes the villain motivations aren't properly established, raising questions about their plans The group questions why the aliens are kept together in cells where they can conspire to escape Nick suggests this is due to 'human hubris' and scientists wanting to study their interactions The movie has a distinct 'Joss Whedon' style, as he wrote the screenplay Case appreciates the lived-in world aesthetic consistent with previous Alien films Sam praises the film's beautiful visuals and camera work despite her criticisms Alien Sequences and Visual Elements (30:38 - 39:45) The underwater sequence with aliens swimming is praised as visually impressive Sam notes the unrealistic breath-holding duration in the underwater scene The group appreciates creative kills and set pieces in the film They discuss how director Jean-Pierre Jeunet brought a different visual style The film is described as more campy than previous entries, closer to a slasher film in space The cast is discussed, with Michael Wincott as the captain and Ron Perlman as an abrasive character Winona Ryder is described as distractingly famous for her role as the android Call The Xenomorphs and Newborn Design (39:45 - 49:46) The aliens show intelligence when escaping their cells by sacrificing one of their own The group discusses the alien queen's live birth ability instead of egg-laying Case questions how this is an 'evolutionary upgrade' when it seems painful and inefficient The newborn hybrid alien design is praised as appropriately freaky and different The theme of motherhood continues from previous films in the franchise Nick points out how the newborn looks more human than regular xenomorphs Sam simply finds the newborn 'gross' and disturbing Improving the Film - Sam's Pitch (49:46 - 01:01:06) Sam suggests clarifying the scientists' motives early in the film She proposes establishing that the main goal is creating super-soldiers like Ripley Sam recommends making the pirates more likeable so viewers care when they die She suggests giving hints about Winona Ryder's character being an android earlier Sam recommends establishing a military base on Earth as the destination for the specimens For the underwater scene, she suggests allowing characters to surface for air occasionally She would keep the film's ending but focus on fixing the first act and character development Nick's Alternative Approach (01:01:06 - 01:10:07) Nick proposes eliminating the space pirates entirely He suggests focusing on scientists, Ripley, and Call (Winona Ryder's character) He recommends a more claustrophobic setting with military presence to explore ethics Nick suggests adding communication between the space station and Earth He proposes showing how Ripley's DNA was extracted to address audience questions Nick mentions that Joss Whedon's original script featured Newt instead of Ripley He wonders how the film might have been different if directed by Danny Boyle, who was approached first Case's Restructuring Proposal (01:10:08 - 01:18:51) Case suggests making the space pirates the focus of the first act, with Winona Ryder as the viewpoint character He proposes revealing Ripley later as a surprise, during the basketball scene He recommends establishing that scientists have been successfully cloning aliens already Case suggests the aliens should have been in captivity longer to justify their escape methods He likes keeping the back half of the movie mostly intact The hosts share that Sigourney Weaver actually made the backward basketball shot in one take They conclude by mentioning their next episode will cover Highlander 2: The Quickening

*This is the Free Content version of my interview with Dr. John E. Browning. To access the entire episode, please consider becoming a Tier 1 ‘Gates of Argonath' member, or you can purchase this episode for a one-time fee. My guest this month is Dr. John E. Browning. A professor in the greater Atlanta metropolitan area, John Edgar Browning, Ph.D. has contracted or published 20 academic and popular trade books as well as over 100 shorter works on subjects that cluster around cultural studies, critical media literacy, Dracula, vampires, monstrosity, and horror. Included among his work in film and media studies is his decade-and-a-half-long ethnographic fieldwork with the human or real vampire subculture (a topic in which there are perhaps five scholars worldwide). In addition to academic venues, Browning has published on the real vampire subculture in public forums such as The Atlantic (2015) and Discover Magazine (2015 and 2018), and his unique expertise in this area has helped facilitate several public appearances as a guest scholar on, or service as a consultant for, over two dozen television and streaming networks, professional podcasts, and radio programs, including Discovery channel, National Geographic, Animal Planet, AMC Visionaries: Eli Roth's History of Horror, History channel, Disney+, Netflix, Discover Magazine's “It's Only Science” podcast, Ripley's Believe It or Not, NPR, The Howard Stern Show network, BBC Radio, RTÉ—Ireland's National Television and Radio Broadcaster, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Georgia Public Broadcasting, and SLATE among others. In this interview, John and I discuss his research into the Real Vampire Community. He talks about his motivation to begin looking into this subculture, as well as what he's learned over the years. As this topic somewhat overlaps with my own research into the Otherkin community, I take the opportunity to ‘compare notes' so to speak, and ask questions to gain more clarity on this group. John also discusses to what degree contemporary expressions of the vampire in popular culture have influenced the real vampire community, and how his research has contributed to changing perceptions of this subculture. He talks about his term ‘defiant culture' as it relates to people who have been labeled ‘Other' or ‘deviant' and also mentions how his research has helped forensic professionals that deal with crimes that seem, on the surface, to involve people who label themselves ‘vampires'. We also touch upon the Temple of the Vampire, a group that is viewed as a religious organization, and how this group relates to the larger vampire community in the US. PROGRAM NOTESJohn Edgar Browning - Savannah College of Art and DesignForeword to The Palgrave Handbook of the Vampire (ed.

Sitting high above the small community of Ripley, Ohio, a lantern shone in the front window of a small, red brick home at night. It was a signal to slaves just across the Ohio River. Anyone fleeing bondage could look to Reverend John Rankin’s home for hope. To the slaveholders they fled from, Rankin’s activities as a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad invoked rage. Mobs often pelted Rankin with eggs and rocks, bounties were placed on his head, and midnight assassins lurked in the darkness, waiting for the right opportunity to take out the “Father of Abolitionism.” Despite frequent threats, he remained committed to the freedom of his fellow man.Today’s guest is Caleb Franz, author of The Conductor: The Story of Rev. John Rankin, Abolitionism's Essential Founding Father, we look at the story of the man who served as a George Washington–type figure to the antislavery movement. Rankin’s leadership brought unity and clarity to the often factious abolitionists of the nineteenth century. William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and countless others found inspiration in his teachings. He also presented abolitionism as a moderate movement, helping to make it palpable to Southern centrists who considered most abolitionists Yankee radicals who wanted to watch America descend into a Haitian-style race war.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
