In this repeat episode, Jack Herrington sits down with Tanner Linsley to talk about the evolution of TanStack and where it's headed next. They explore how early projects like React Query and React Table influenced the headless philosophy behind TanStack Router, why virtualized lists matter at scale, and what makes forms in React so challenging. Tanner breaks down TanStack Start and its client-first approach to SSR, routing, and data loading, and shares his perspective on React Server Components, modern authentication tradeoffs, and composable tooling. The episode wraps with a look at TanStack's roadmap and what it takes to sustainably maintain open source at scale. We want to hear from you! How did you find us? Did you see us on Twitter?

It. Has. Come. Down. To. This. RSC co-artistic director Austin Tichenor is joined by actors, directors, coaches, and Shakespeareans DeeDee Batteast, Elizabeth Dennehy, Gregory Linington, and director/mathemagician Nate Cohen to decide Shakespeare's Best Character in our (mostly) annual Ides of March Madness tournament. The distinguished panel reveals unexpected seeding for some characters fans won't see coming; some heart-stopping upsets; how the depth of some characters compares to the breadth of others; the kind of Rosalind we're all dying to see; how Nate gamed out the entire season to arrive at this field of 64; threading the needle of Best vs. Great vs. Favorite; how some lesser-known characters punch above their recognition level; which character gets (appropriately enough) voted off the island in the first round; a bold approach to Shylock; and a Sweet Sixteen of undeniable greatness that will compete resolutely when our tournament concludes next week. #EdmundWasRight (Length 1:28:58) The post Ides of March Madness 2026 (Part 1) appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

这期节目,我(抱歉这次带着一点小感冒的鼻音!)想要带大家走进伦敦原版音乐剧《玛蒂尔达》(Matilda)的奇幻世界~如果你以为这只是一部老套的「天才儿童对抗坏大人」童话,那就大错特错了。当小小的身躯在舞台上爆发出对抗不公的勇气,台下的成年人往往才是热泪盈眶的那群人。我将会聊聊这个月我在上海看过这部音乐剧之后的观后感,然后从英国皇家莎士比亚剧团()RSC)的幕后制作聊起,剖析喜剧鬼才 Tim Minchin 如何用带点暗黑、滑稽又充满文字游戏的音乐,将国宝级童书作家罗尔德·达尔(Roald Dahl)笔下的世界立体化。当然,也会和大家聊聊,为什麽在这个串流音乐如此发达的时代,身为乐迷的我们,依旧需要走进剧院,去感受一场无法被耳机和屏幕複製的「现场」震撼。希望你能通过这期节目,对这部音乐剧产生兴趣,亲自走进剧场感受它的魅力 :)

「W杯日本代表候補!元FC東京GK野澤大志ブランドンが再び驚異スタッツ記録!」 FC東京在籍歴のあるGK野澤大志ブランドンは現在、ベルギー1部ロイヤル・アントワープの正守護神として活躍。6日に行われたリーグ戦でもフル出場し、クリーンシートを達成したが、同選手の一部スタッツが話題に。ベルギー1部屈指のGKとして評価を上げているだけに、FIFAワールドカップ北中米大会の日本代表候補に挙がっている。 データサイト『SofaScore』によると、この試合で野澤は8セーブ、阻止したゴール数2.12を記録。これは相手の決定機を複数回にわたり防いだことを示す数字で、GKとして非常に高いパフォーマンスを意味する。実際、野澤の好セーブがなければチームは失点していた可能性が高く、勝ち点を落としていたとの見方も強い。 ベルギー紙『Het Nieuwsblad』も試合後、「野澤の好セーブで敗戦は免れた」と報道。チームは0-0で引き分けたものの、もし野澤のビッグセーブがなければ敗れていた可能性が高いと指摘した。一方でアントワープは、チャンピオンズ・プレーオフ進出争いで厳しい状況に立たされており、早ければ今週末にもその可能性が消滅する恐れがあるという。 もっとも、野澤個人の評価は確実に高まっている。2月にはクラブの月間MVPにも選出され、チームの守護神として存在感を示している。象徴的だったのが、2月13日に行われた国内カップ戦でのパフォーマンスだ。アントワープはRSCアンデルレヒトに0-4で敗れたものの、野澤は11セーブを記録。守備陣が押し込まれる展開の中で決定機を次々と阻止し、『SofaScore』では9.9点という異例の高評価を受け、マン・オブ・ザ・マッチ(MOM)にも選ばれた。 4失点という結果だけを見れば厳しい内容だが、実際にはGKが孤軍奮闘する展開だった。もし野澤のセーブがなければ、さらに大差がついていた可能性もあり、数字以上にインパクトの大きい試合だったと言える。 日本ではFC東京でプレーした経験を持つ野澤。現在は欧州の舞台で評価を高めており、北中米W杯に向けた日本代表候補の一人としても注目されている。ベルギーリーグで安定したパフォーマンスを続ける守護神は、今後さらに評価を高めることができるのか。野澤の活躍は、日本代表のGK争いにも新たな刺激を与えそうだ。

Professor Ronan Hatfull literally wrote the book on the Reduced Shakespeare Company. His new book from Bloomsbury/Arden – Shakespeare in the Theatre: Reduced Shakespeare Company – is the very first full-length study to be published about the RSC. Focusing specifically on our Shakespearean reduction and adaptation, Ronan's book examines the origins and evolution of the company through the creation of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), The Reduced Shakespeare Radio Show, William Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play (abridged), and The Comedy of Hamlet! (a prequel). Ronan shares his methodology; how he wanted to make his book accessible to the general reader; how he learned that the RSC carries on the 17th-century tradition of “drolls”; how the RSC injected a bit of danger and the unexpected into Shakespeare and influenced various folks like the Q Brothers and Potted Potter creator Daniel Clarkson; and how for a limited time, Arden Shakespeare is offering to RSC fans a 35% discount on the hardcover edition of the book!

Whitney White is a theatrical powerhouse. A director, writer, actor, and musician, White's work has been seen on Broadway, Off Broadway, and at major institutions including The Public Theater, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and, most recently, the Royal Shakespeare Company. Her projects include Jaja's African Hair Braiding, The Last Five Years, Macbeth in Stride, and By The Queen, which was featured in the Folger's 2025 Reading Room Festival. In this episode, White discusses All Is But Fantasy, her four-play musical cycle created for the RSC, where it's now receiving its world premiere. The high-energy, gig-theater show investigates Shakespeare's women and ambition, focusing on Lady Macbeth, Emilia, Juliet, and Richard III. Each piece combines performance with original music, using sound and rhythm as a way into the text and as a tool for rethinking these characters whose inner lives are often cut short or overlooked. White reflects on why Shakespeare's women so often meet tragic ends, how those stories continue to feel familiar, and what it means to keep staging them now. She considers the ways that music, performance, and adaptation can help us better understand Shakespeare today. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.

Rich Harris joins the podcast to discuss his talk, fine-grained everything, exploring fine-grained reactivity, frontend performance, and the real costs of React Server Components and RSC payloads. Rich explains how Svelte and SvelteKit approach co-located data fetching, remote functions, and RPC to reduce server-side rendering costs, improve developer experience, and avoid unnecessary performance overhead on mobile networks. The conversation dives into async rendering, parallel async data fetching, type safety with schema validation, and why async-first frameworks may define the future of JavaScript frameworks and web performance. Links X: https://x.com/Rich_Harris Github: https://github.com/rich-harris Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/rich-harris.dev Resources Modern front-end frameworks like Svelte are astonishingly fast at rendering, thanks to techniques such as signal-based fine-grained reactivity. But there's more to performance than updating the screen at 60 frames per second. In this talk, we'll learn about new approaches that help you build fast, reliable, data-efficient apps.

So here it is John Cena Figure Collecting Discussion Jefry and Scott discussed their favorite John Cena figures, with Jefry highlighting the Unmatched Fury as his top pick from Jacks and a Mattel prototype figure as his favorite from Mattel. Scott shared that his favorite Mattel Cena figure is the Ultimate Edition from ECW's One Night Stand 2006, while also mentioning the WrestleMania 41 Cena figure as one of his most valuable.

Scott expressed a desire for an Ultimate Edition Adrian Adonis figure in Mattel's Coliseum Collection. Latoonie Figures Quality Discussion Jefry and Scott discussed the prototype pictures of Latoonie Demolition figures, which they found disappointing due to poor face painting and overall quality.

They also defended Latoonie's retro figures, praising their creativity and quality, while agreeing that Power Town figures were universally poor.

Sarah has ventured into Giant Country (otherwise known as Stratford-upon-Avon) for the opening night of the RSC's stage version of The BFG, sparking a series of thoughts about why puppets have such a profound effect on audiences. This comes mere weeks after the critics raved about the stage production of Paddington. Speaking of the much-loved Bear, the Paddington musical was the runaway smash for the audience-driven WhatsOnStage Awards shortlist – which saw theatregoers across the nation pick their favourite shows and performers. Sarah and Alex comb through the nominated shows to see what it says about the state of UK theatre in 2025. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Matt Croke, Reed Martin, and Austin Tichenor remember the creation of the RSC's second radio show The Reduced Shakespeare Company Christmas in 1995, and how it paved the way for the RSC's eighth stage show The Ultimate Christmas Show (abridged). Matt, Reed, and Austin reveal their audio inspirations (like Firesign Theatre and 'Weird Al' Yankovic); how the new golden age of radio is called podcasts; how we failed to achieve novelty hit status with "Mrs. Santa Claus;" how we incorporated inside-baseball Ringling Brothers jokes and personal holiday memories; and how the heart the recording is its ten-minute reduction A Little Dickens: The Complete Christmas Carol (abridged); and how Austin went from playing parody Scrooge to playing the real guy for Chicago's Goodman Theatre. (Length 15:02) The post Remembering ‘Little Dickens' appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.
This week TanStack joins the AI wars with the alpha release of TanStack AI: an open-source AI SDK with a unified interface across multiple providers. TanStack AI is an open-source ecosystem of libraries and standards, and it is client, server, and AI provider agnostic, to make building AI-enabled apps accessible to all.In a surprise move, AI company Anthropic acquires JavaScript runtime Bun to accelerate its development of Claude Code. Apparently, Bun has been central to Claude Code reaching $1 billion in run-rate revenue in just six months, and Anthropic's brought the team in house to keep the momentum going.And it's been another rough week for security in JavaScript. First, a new self-replicating, credential stealing malware attack, dubbed Shai-Hulud 2.0, swept the npm ecosystem and compromised 800 npm packages in the process, and then a critical security vulnerability was discovered for any React projects using React Server Components. Just remember to lock down your dependencies and install those patches ASAP, folks.Timestamps:1:22 - TanStack AI9:12 - Anthropic buys Bun21:03 - Shai-Hulul 2.0 on npm and an RSC vulnerability30:23 - What's making us happyNews:Paige - Shai-Hulud 2.0 on npm and RSC vulnerabilityJack - TanStack AITJ - Anthropic buys Bun (Bun post) (Anthropic post)What Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - The Durrells TV seriesJack - Essentialism bookTJ - Dungeon Crawler Carl book seriesThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

Washington is full of both. Yesterday, Stigall was on Capitol Hill talking with the former. Members of the House's Republican Study Committee. Their objective was to message to you that first, they have an agenda they believe is working and two, they're not done. It's ultimately up to you if you like what you hear or not. We'll have bonus content coming later in the week featuring even more members who didn't make it today's show. Today, you'll hear Rep. Tom Emmer go OFF on his governor Tim Walz, Rep. Eric Burlison with a real idea to fix Obamacare, and Rep. August Pfluger of Texas explains what the RSC is all about. Plus, are Crisis Pregnancy Centers targets of New Jersey government? Sure seems that way and it seems like that what Justice Clarence Thomas thought. Hear his aggressive line of question directed at New Jersey's Attorney General's office, and Carrie Severino of the Judicial Network explains the case in full. Plus, the governor of West Virginia updates us on the health of the surviving Guardsman and the two grieving families in his state after they were ambushed by a terrorist on the streets of Washington D.C. And can you believe - of all places - they're still mandating the stupid shot for school kids?! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This episode offers a range of practical ideas, advice and teaching techniques for engaging students in the work of William Shakespeare – both in the English classroom and across the school. Produced in partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company, the episode features a panel of experts and educators who discuss how we can make Shakespeare enjoyable for our students. We talk about Shakespeare's place across the school, in the English and drama classrooms of course, but also in other places such as the assembly hall and extra-curricular work. We offer a range of teaching tips and ways we can make Shakespeare enjoyable and engaging for students, including how we can help them to penetrate the vocabulary of Shakespeare, how Shakespeare can support oracy education, and ideas for how we can introduce Shakespeare effectively in key stage 3. Crucially, we also ask what we should avoid doing when teaching Shakespeare and ask how we can show students the relevance of Shakespeare in today's world. This episode has been produced to mark the launch of RSC's new Shakespeare Curriculum platform, which brings you the next generation of digital resources to support your teaching of Shakespeare. It is free to access for state-maintained schools and SEN schools. More details at the end of the podcast or via: www.shakespearecurriculum.com

A new re-imagining of The Wind in the Willows told from the margins. Set in a timeless, Kenneth Grahame-inspired England, the drama looks up from weasel-height at class, home and who gets to belong when the Wild Wood is being carved up by developers. Narrated by Penelope Wilton, it blends the familiar riverbank world with the pressures of eviction, empty grand houses and power concentrated in a few determined hands.Kit, a young weasel, is watching her family slide into precarity as the scrubland around their burrow is sold off and the criminal Chief Weasel tightens his grip. With her best friends - Portly the otter and Radar the bat - Kit's world collides with Mole, Ratty, Badger and other classic characters, while a grand house standing empty becomes a magnet for grievance and opportunity. What follows is a fight not for glory but for a place to live: shifting alliances, contested territory and small acts of care that build a community where suspicion says it cannot exist. A story about who gets to stay, what makes a home, and how belonging is made on the riverbank.Dramatist Tom Morton-Smith is a playwright and screenwriter best known for the RSC's Oppenheimer and the multi-award-winning stage adaptation of My Neighbour Totoro.Cast:Narrator . . . . .

What a week Sarah Crompton and Alex Wood have had! Not only did they have a trip to Panem to sample the stage adaptation of The Hunger Games (the results left a lot to chew on), but Sarah's been down to Middle Temple Hall to celebrate a brand new initiative to help make Shakespeare more accessible in schools, courtesy of the Foyle Foundation and the RSC (with a helping hand from Helen Mirren, Adjoa Andoh and Ian McKellen).

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is David Adjmi. From childhood, our money stories shape the way we see the world—sometimes with clarity, and sometimes with confusion. For playwright David, growing up in a family and a neighborhood where money was about hustle, performance, and status left him questioning what financial security and self-worth really meant. David Adjmi's plays have been produced at theatres around the world such as Lincoln Center, RSC, Steppenwolf, and Soho Rep--where he was the Mellon Foundation playwright-in-residence for three years. Stereophonic (music by Will Butler of Arcade Fire) is running on London's West End after a successful run on Broadway, where it became the most Tony-nominated play in history. Stereophonic received the 2024 Drama Desk Award, New York Drama Critics' Circle Award, Outer Critics Circle Award, Drama League, and Tony Awards for Best Play. The Stumble was recently excerpted in The Paris Review, and his two-part play The Blind King is currently in development with The Public. Adjmi's controversial hit 3C was selected as one of the top ten plays of the year by the New York Post, Time Out and the Advocate. Elective Affinities premiered at the Royal Shakespeare Company and received a sold-out U.S. premiere at Soho Rep starring Zoe Caldwell (Top 10 of the year in Time Out, The New Yorker.) Other plays include Stunning, The Evildoers, and Marie Antoinette. He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Whiting Writers' Award, the Kesselring Prize for Drama, and the Steinberg Playwright Award, among others. He holds commissions from The Public, Playwrights Horizons, Yale Rep, Berkeley Rep, and the Royal Court (UK). His critically acclaimed memoir Lot Six was published by HarperCollins in 2020, and his collected plays are published by TCG.
RSC artistic directors Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor are directing college productions of their comedies William Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play (abridged) and The Comedy of Hamlet! (a prequel), and they discuss the differences they discover in their scripts when other actors are performing them. Reed and Austin share how different actors bring different energies; the difference between a vaudeville and a play; how directing these young actors is like looking in a mirror; and how certain things just aren't necessary when you cast more than three actors. (Length 19:37) The post Directing Our Scripts appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.
RSC artistic directors and co-authors Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor discuss how they've updated All the Great Books (abridged), which embarks on a US tour this fall. Reed and Austin share what changes they've made to this script (and all the RSC scripts) and how our scripts, like all plays, develop new meanings depending on the personnel performing them and the times in which they're being performed. (Length 15:04) (PICTURED: Tré Tyler (Coach), Michael Faulkner (Professor), and Doug Harvey (Doug) in the Reduced Shakespeare Company production of All the Great Books (abridged), written and directed by Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor.)

Mark Dalgleish joins us to talk about the latest in React Router, including its growing support for React Server Components (RSC). He breaks down what RSC data mode, framework mode, and declarative mode mean for developers, and how features like the middleware API and route module API are simplifying work across tools like Vite and Parcel. We also dive into how React 19, static site generation with RSC, and smarter data batching are reshaping performance and the future of server-side rendering in React apps.

To end our second year of Rosebud, we have one of our most charming, talented and brilliant theatrical dames: Dame Eileen Atkins. Dame Eileen is a uniquely talented writer and actor, both on stage and screen - from Cranford, to the RSC, to The Killing of Sister George on Broadway, to Upstairs, Downstairs and The House of Eliot (which she co-created), to Mrs Dalloway (for which she wrote the screenplay). And this is one of our most entertaining interviews yet, with stories from Dame Eileen's long life and career . From her early years in Tottenham, when a gypsy going door-to-door prophesied that the three year-old Eileen would be a world-famous dancer, to her career as a child performer playing the working men's clubs, to her school days in Edmonton - the anecdotes from Eileen's life are brilliantly told. We then hear about her days at drama school, her friendship with Sir Alec Guinness and a couple of very funny stories from her working life. This is a fitting end to a fabulous two years for our podcast. We're very proud of the show we've created, and of our community of listeners - we're grateful to each and every one of you for your emails, your ears, your reviews, and your time. Thank you so much for being here with us! And thank you to Dame Eileen for this special conversation. Here's to many more years of Rosebud to come. Enjoy this. Hosted on Acast.

Sir Gregory Doran is the former artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company. He spent a total of thirty five years with the RSC directing fifty productions in the UK and abroad. He's been called “one of the great Shakespeareans of his age” and has won multiple awards for his work.Born in 1958, Greg was brought up near Preston and played a number of female Shakespeare roles when he was a young pupil attending an all-boys secondary school. He went on to study English and Drama at Bristol University followed by a stint studying classical acting at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. After a few bit parts in TV sitcoms and a spell at Nottingham Playhouse, Sir Greg decided that he would prefer to carve out a career as a director. He went on to stage some of the most critically acclaimed theatre productions – including an all-black cast of Julius Caesar and took Titus Andronicus to South Africa.More recently, he has been touring the globe on his Shakespeare's First Folio tour to look at as many different copies of the texts as possible.
