Podcasts about Rudyard Kipling

Get ready to escape to the lake isle of Innisfree, because for the penultimate episode of Forgotten Melodies we're talking all about Nature Songs!We explore the English trees and plants which have inspired folk musicians, poets and all true Romantics, and the songs which use them as motifs.First, we look at stone cold classic A North Country Maid, and its oak, ash and bonny ivy.More oak and ash abound in our second selection, A Tree Song, written by Rudyard Kipling for the 1906 book Puck of Pook's Hill, and set to music by Peter Bellamy. The third song might just be the best known song we've covered in the series, a staple of pub folk sessions, ideal for the end of the night. We'll be gathering the Wild Mountain Thyme - or possibly just making an elaborate excuse to take our sweethearts up into the hills...Martin and Eleanor explore the history and context behind each song, and the surrounding folklore for the plants and trees which inspired them!We really hope you enjoy the episode, and we will speak to you again on Thursday for a new Lang Fairy Tale triple bill, featuring Rapunzel, The Nettle Spinner, and Farmer Weatherbeard!The Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

(0:00) Intro to this episode (2:52) About the podcast sponsor: The American College of Governance Counsel (3:39) Start of interview (4:18) Keith Giarman's origin story. About DHR Global (9:33) Tony Abate's origin story. Current boards: Wolfspeed, GTT Communications, Mitel, and Tacora Resources. (23:52) Turnaround Board Playbook. Three phases: 1) Fix the balance sheet; 2) Turnaround strategy, and time to turn to the income statement; and 3) Exit the business. (28:50) Private Equity Board Structure. It is all contextual. (33:40) Compensation in PE boards. (31:15) What Makes Boards Effective, from Tony based on his chairmanship experience. Execution vs process. *Execution: 1) Skill Set Distribution ("Three is too few, five too many."), 2) Relevance of that skill set distribution to the situation at hand, and 3) Willingness to engage with the management team between board meetings ("the most important" goes to board culture). (38:34) Building the Board Agenda, from Tony: Tight agenda in three buckets: 1) Decisions needed now, 2) input without a decision, and 3) FYI. Most boards get stuck on FYI and never reach the real decisions. Then 40 to 50% of the deck should be standardized financial and operational KPIs (flag only what's changing), one rotating deep dive, and executive sessions with and without the CEO. (42:53) LLCs and Governance Dynamics in PE. (45:52) AI and Board Talent Demand. "Matrix management" (50:36) Underestimated Governance Risks. From Keith: for board members: "Are they aligned? Are they courageous? And are they adaptive?" From Tony: "The board should talk about the what, not the how." Difference between supervising and execution. Caveat: some PE firms are very prescriptive. (56:23) Founder-Led or Board-Led companies. (1:00:16) What are the 1-3 books that have greatly influenced your life:  Tony:  Titan by Ron Chernow (1998) Theodore Rex by Edmund Morris (volume 2 of the trilogy) (2001) The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson (2004) Keith: Mornings on Horseback, by David McCullough (1981) The Outsiders, by William N. Thorndike Jr. (2012) The Evolving Self, by Robert Kegan (1982)  (1:05:00) Who were their mentors, and what they learned from them. (1:09:07) Quotes they think of often or live their life by. Tony: The Man in the Ring by Teddy Roosevelt. Rudyard Kipling poem If. Keith: "Everybody has a plan until they get hit in the face" (1:11:17) An unusual habit or an absurd thing that they love.

"In a class about care-giving, there's a larger mystery to solve among the island's secretive, neo-pagan community. The story is told from the perspective of author Rudyard Kipling." Well, that's a mouthful, and an unexpected narrator. Our guest Kevin Ryan is here to work through the confusion, though!

Kobe said it best: the key to mental toughness is not getting too high or too low. Stay even keel. But most competitors never actually figure out how to do that, because they never deal with their relationship to wins and losses. In this episode, we break down exactly how a Killa celebrates a win and how a Killa learns from a loss. Not the feel-good version. The real version. The one that actually makes you better. Most people celebrate wrong. They feel good, reward themselves, and let the win write checks their habits haven't earned. Most people process losses wrong too. They sulk, dodge accountability, blame outside circumstances, or rush to conclusions that protect their ego instead of building their game. Killas do something different. They collect data on their wins. They feel the pain of a loss without letting it attach to their identity. They take responsibility without shame. And they get back in the fight quickly, but not in a hurry. Rudyard Kipling said, "If you can meet with triumph and disaster, and treat those two impostors the same." That's the standard. Wins and losses are just information. How you use them is everything. All we do is learn and win. That's it.

Today's poem is all about the correlation between the elaborate architecture of a lie and the pleasure that telling it can give. Maybe an allegory for art? Maybe a playful confession?

Rudyard Kipling published Stalky & Co. in 1899. Set at an English boarding school in a seaside town on the North Devon coast. (The town, Westward Ho!, is not only unusual in having an exclamation mark, but also in being itself named after a novel, by Charles Kingsley.)The book is a collection of linked short stories, with some information about the eponymous Stalky's later life. Beetle, one of the main trio, is said to be based on Kipling himself, while Stalky may be based on Lionel Dunsterville.The stories have elements of the macabre (dead cats), bullying and violence, and hints about sex, making them far from the childish or idealised world of the typical school story. Edmund Wilson, critic, in The Wound and the Bow, was both shocked and uncomprehending.

In this episode of From Waterloo to the Alamo, we sit down with Steve Rigby, bestselling author, speaker, and founder of NewWings Consulting alongside his wife Susan, for a conversation that moves between leadership, self-management, and the difference between deciding and doing. From decades spent training three of the country's top ten homebuilders to writing the bestselling S.M.I.L.E. and its brand-new follow up, Managing to S.M.I.L.E., out this Friday, May 29, this episode unpacks how clarity, trust, and genuine care come together to shape not just teams, but the people on them.We dig into the ideas redefining how leaders lead, including the Six Keys drawn from Rudyard Kipling's six honest serving men, why handing goals down from the top quietly breaks them, what a tricycle reveals about the people worth hiring, and the hallway of magic mirrors that asks who will help and who will hold you accountable. Steve also takes the conversation somewhere unexpected, into addiction recovery, and what it has meant to watch his model work inside a sober living house.Rooted in the perspective and global standard of Engel & Völkers, this conversation reflects the intention, depth, and elevated thinking that define the next era of leadership, business, and personal growth across Austin and beyond. If you are leading a team, building a business, or simply trying to get one corner of your life back under your own control, this is the conversation you want in your ear!

We give a humble tribute to 13 service members who we add to the list of Americans who gave their lives fighting for this country. We also go over Rudyard Kipling's poem "Recessional" on this Memorial Day.

¿Por qué la belleza importa? Esta es la pregunta que se hizo un día el filósofo Roger Scruton. En la búsqueda de una respuesta hallaría un sentido, preservando la belleza heredada encontró un propósito ancestral escondido. Jorge Soley, que pudo conocerle en persona en su finca de la campiña inglesa, nos habla de las ideas de un hombre leal, sencillo, valiente, divertido y honesto intelectualmente. Su sistema filosófico no quiso cambiar la realidad del mundo, sino simplemente hacer la vida un poco más agradable.Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:⁠⁠Página Internacional⁠⁠.

A senior Indigenous banker in Canada cautions the Canadian government to keep Indigenous consultation at the forefront for major projects. As Dan Karpenchuk reports, he also says there is interest from Indigenous leaders in taking part in those major energy projects. Recently Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney repeated his plan to fast track major energy projects in Canada. Last week, he said Ottawa would build quickly and “in the right way” in consulting with Indigenous and provincial partners, but some of those leaders have been critical fearing that the process of consultation will be rushed and their concerns would be brushed aside. Carney's government wants to change parts of environmental law to make it easier to build a pipeline to the west coast, along with other energy projects. Bill Lomax is the president and CEO of the First Nations Bank of Canada. He says that early and meaningful talks with Indigenous communities is key. “We're seeing more business acquisitions happening, joint ventures happening with companies that are servicing, let's say, a pipeline. That kind of thing is just really taken off. We've seen our business grow. We're really a reflection of our clients. And their success leads to our success.” Lomax says the bank's commercial business was growing by 10% a year, but in the past year, it's been 26%. He says that shows how much Indigenous businesses are becoming involved, but he warns the opportunity for their approval is there if the consultation is done right. “You need to engage with the nation early on and let them know what you are thinking about, have them participate and have them be part of the plan.” Lomax says even though some Indigenous communities will be against some projects, but he believes there are many more that would be ready to move and move quickly. The First Nations Bank of Canada is an Indigenous-owned national bank. It's mission is to serve Indigenous people, nations, and businesses. The Alaska Native Language Center will publish a novel this summer retelling Rudyard Kipling's “The White Seal”, the only Jungle Book story set outside India, on St. Paul Island in the Bering Sea. Two artists from the Pribilof Islands retell the story through the perspective of a young Indigenous protagonist named Sergie. KUCB's Maggie Nelson has more. Garrett Pletnikoff is the coauthor of the new young adult chapter book “Sergie and the White Seal”. The story is an adaptation of one in Kipling's Jungle Book, “The White Seal”, published in 1894. And actually names Pletnikoff's great, great, great grandfather as a main antagonist. Kipling portrays Pletnikoff's ancestors through a disparaging colonial lens — as unclean murderers of the innocent marine mammals. Pletnikoff says this adaptation is a chance to tell a different story — to portray the Unangan community and the seals as partners instead of enemies, as Kipling wrote them. “The White Seal includes violent descriptions of seal harvesting, but Kipling never mentions that these harvests were not done by Unangan free will. The Unangan people of the Pribilof Islands were subjected to forced labor.” Hannah Zimmerman coauthored the book with Pletnikoff. She says they were inspired by Unangan lore and mythology and decided to name their main character after a spiritual leader from the Aleutian chain — Sergie Soboroff. “It’s a story of Sergie, who discovers that he’s a shaman, and he has this, you know, magical ability to talk to animals, and he discovers his purpose as a conduit between the animal world, in the human world.” Zimmerman says they used Sergie's role as a shaman to discuss topics like how colonization wiped out certain Indigenous practices. “When we read the book to fourth and fifth graders in the fall at the St Paul Island School. And I’ll never forget how, at the end of the book, one of the fifth grade students came up to me, and he was like, you know, I didn’t know Aleuts could be superheroes.” “Sergie and the White Seal” is now available through the University Press of Colorado's website.

In this Eye2Eye episode, I wanted to do something more personal and reflective. I'm sharing a poem that I've come back to time and time again throughout my life: “If—” by Rudyard Kipling.It's one of those pieces that seems to hit differently depending on where I'm at. I've turned to it during tough moments when I've needed a reset, but also during the highs as a reminder to stay grounded and keep my ego in check. For me, it's not just a poem... it's a blueprint for how to navigate life with a bit more clarity and intention.In this episode I want to take a few minutes to reflect on some of the lines that resonate most with me. Lines about staying calm when everything around you feels chaotic, trusting your instincts even when others doubt you, and learning to treat both success and failure as temporary states rather than defining moments.There are also lessons about being willing to take big swings, knowing that sometimes you might have to start over—and the importance of pushing forward even when you feel like you've got nothing left in the tank.At the end of the day, this episode is really just a reminder (to myself as much as to anyone listening) that growth doesn't come from comfort. It comes from staying steady, doing the work, and continuing to show up, no matter where you are in your journey.Key Takeaway1. Leadership starts with composure When things feel chaotic, your ability to stay calm and steady is what sets the tone for everyone around you.2. Success and failure are both temporary Treating triumph and disaster as “imposters” helps you stay grounded and focused on the long game.3.

"Smart lad, to slip betimes away/From fields where glory does not stay..."This line indicates one of the key themes in the poem "To an Athlete Dying Young" by A.E. Housman. With this being National Poetry Month, I am reading and talking about poems that I find particularly powerful, inspirational, and meaningful, so today I am talking about this poem. Monday, I started with "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost, and Wednesday, I talked about "If" by Rudyard Kipling. I said that you've probably heard both of those poems before, and you may have read them in your English/Language Arts class when you were in school. While not as popular as the other two, I imagine "To an Athlete Dying Young" may be another poem you read in school, too.As always, I am so grateful to all of you who support the podcast!

"If you can keep your head when all about you/Are losing theirs and blaming it on you..."These lines begin the poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling. The entire poem is a series of "if" lines and concepts, all talking about the many trials and tribulations we will be faced with as we go through life, and culminating in two lines to show what is waiting for us if we handle all of the "ifs" in the right way. There are so many great quotable lines and lessons for leaders and teammates throughout this poem, many of which you may have used with your teams before.With this being National Poetry Month, I am reading and talking about poems that I find particularly powerful, inspirational, and meaningful.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 6, 2026 is: cotton • KAH-tun • verb The verb cotton is used with on or on to to mean “to begin to understand something; to catch on.” Cotton used with to alone means “to begin to like someone or something.” // It took a while, but they are finally starting to cotton on. // She quickly cottoned on to why her friend was nudging her, and stopped talking just before their teacher entered the room. // We cottoned to our new neighbors right away. See the entry > Examples: “An insatiable reader, he enjoyed a wide range of literary acquaintances, some of whom—Rudyard Kipling, Owen Wister, and Joel Chandler Harris—became personal friends, and others, including Mark Twain (“a man wholly without cultivation”) ... he never quite cottoned to.” — David S. Brown, In the Arena: Theodore Roosevelt in War, Peace, and Revolution, 2025 Did you know? The noun cotton, from the Arabic word quṭun or quṭn, first appeared in English in the 14th century. The substance and the word that named it were soon both culturally prominent, so English did a very English thing to do—it created a verb from the noun. By the late 15th century, cotton could mean “to form a fuzzy or downy surface on (cloth).” This verb sense (as well as other cotton-related verb meanings) is a lexical dust bunny at this point, but our modern-day uses spun from it. By the mid 16th century cotton could mean “to go on prosperously, to develop well, to succeed.” The metaphor is not difficult to see, as cotton cloth with a nice nap has indeed developed well. By the early 17th century, the verb had shifted again, and cottoning was, as it still often is, about taking a liking to someone or something. It wasn't until the early 20th century that someone who cottoned to or on to something had come to understand it.

A family moving into an abandoned Wisconsin mansion discovered a human corpse hidden inside the walls — and that was the least terrifying thing that happened to them there.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: Was Summerwind in Wisconsin really haunted? No one knows and if they do, they aren't saying. Today, only the foundations, the stone chimneys and perhaps the ghosts remain. (Summerwind: The Most Haunted House In Wisconsin) *** A young woman discovers that it's possible to live a lonely life, yet still not be alone. (Followed By a Child) *** Is it possible that during the years of World War 1, Agnes Whiteland, while peering off her balcony, saw a group of time travelers? (Agnes And The Time Travelers) *** Tituba proved to be a fantastic orator as she talked her way out of slavery using the fear and mass hysteria of witchcraft that paralyzed the people of Salem. (Tituba And the Salem Witch Trials) *** The discovery of a 10-year-old's body at an ancient Roman site in Italy suggests his family, friends, and neighbors thought he was a vampire – and took measures to make sure he wouldn't return from the grave. (The Unearthing of a Child Vampire) *** Authorities placed Gil Perez in jail as a deserter and for the possibility that he may have been in the service of Satan. In Gil's defense though, he said he simply teleported somewhere else. (Teleportation of a Spanish Soldier) *** 
Matthew Weeks was found guilty and hanged for the murder of Charlotte Dymond. Today it is said that the ghosts of both of them roam the countryside – but could it be that Matthew's ghost is lamenting because he was innocent of the crime? (The Murder of Charlotte Dymond on Bodmin Moor) *** A building situated right in the middle of London's swankiest and most historical areas, has long been said to be the lair of something not of this earth. (The Bizarre Nameless Thing of Berkley Square) *** “The Jungle Book” - we are all familiar with the story in some way – either from the classic animated Disney film version from 1967, the live action version in 2016, or the original novel by Rudyard Kipling published in 1894. In fact, yet another retelling of the story is coming in 2019 in a film entitled simply, “Mowgli”. But what many don't know is that the character of Mowgli was, in fact, inspired by a real boy who was raised by wild animals. (The Real Life Inspiration for Mowgli) *** Evil stepmothers, jealous of their stepdaughters' beauty are a classic tome in fantastical stories – but Martha Savcoll was no fairy tale. (Brooklyn Murderess) *** Of all the places in the world you would expect to be safe from the paranormal, it would be a church – but that would not be telling the truth when referring to Adams Grove Presbyterian Church in Alabama. (Haunted Adams Grove Presbyterian Church) *** Outside of Washington, D.C. lies Forest Haven Asylum, an abandoned institution with a thoroughly disturbing past.

Ottavio Fatica"Ormai non poteva succedere più nulla"Henry JamesEdizioni Adelphiwww.adelphi.itUn autentico forziere che schiude il segreto della vita narrativa di Henry James.«È l'arte che crea la vita, l'interesse, l'importanza di ogni cosa... Non conosco alcun sostituto alla forza e all'ardore del processo creativo» (da una lettera di Henry James a H.G. Wells, 1915).A cura di F.O. Matthiessen e Kenneth B. MurdockEdizione italiana a cura di Ottavio FaticaCon uno scritto di Roberto CalassoHenry James aveva un segreto: lo nascose nelle pieghe velenose della vita mondana, l'unica che gli fosse concesso di conoscere, e lo nascose ancor meglio nella sua prosa evasiva. Un segreto pronto a balzare alla gola dei protagonisti, e dell'autore, come la «bestia nella giungla» di un suo celebre racconto che divora ogni cosa, anche chi si arrischia a darle un nome. L'occasione per penetrarlo la offriranno questi taccuini: un autentico forziere dove James custodì quel materiale umano – aneddoti, pettegolezzi, visite, pranzi, cene, passeggiate – che andava cogliendo fra i prodotti della civiltà perfezionata, e gli si presentava ogni giorno sotto forma di «minuscolo germe per un minuscolo racconto». Poi, secondo la formula ricorrente nei Taccuini, lo scrittore sarebbe andato a «vedere un po' i particolari». In quel preciso istante cominciavano a vibrare le antenne narrative di James: ed è come se assistessimo al momento aurorale dell'invenzione narrativa. Subito dopo, eccolo delineare il profilo del racconto, con una tale perspicuità da non far rimpiangere che non sia mai stato narrato distesamente: era già stato scritto, nelle pagine dei Taccuini. Non occorreva di più.Henry James (New York, 15 aprile 1843 – Londra, 28 febbraio 1916) è uno dei maestri del romanzo moderno. Figlio di un celebre filosofo e fratello del psicologo William James, trascorse gran parte della vita in Europa, diventando cittadino britannico nel 1915.  La sua opera esplora con sottile realismo psicologico il contrasto tra innocenza americana e raffinatezza europea, tema che percorre capolavori come Ritratto di signora (1881), Le ali della colomba (1902) e Gli ambasciatori (1903).  Pioniere della narrazione interiore, influenzò profondamente Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust e tutto il Novecento letterario. Morì a Londra, lasciando un'eredità di stile e profondità ancora insuperata.Ottavio Fatica (Perugia, 1949) è uno dei più raffinati traduttori italiani contemporanei. Nato a Perugia e trasferitosi presto a Roma, dove ha vissuto per decenni, dal 2013 risiede a Narni, in Umbria. Ha esordito in Adelphi e ha collaborato con Theoria, Editori Riuniti, Bompiani ed Einaudi; da anni è consulente editoriale a tutto campo per Adelphi. Traduttore dall'inglese e dal francese, ha ritradotto gran parte dell'opera di Rudyard Kipling (per Adelphi ed Einaudi), Moby Dick di Melville, i diari di Byron, Céline, Lovecraft, Henry James, Philip Roth e molti altri classici. Tra i suoi lavori più recenti: la nuova traduzione de Il Signore degli Anelli di J.R.R. Tolkien (Bompiani, 2019-2020, poi in volume unico), Guerra (Adelphi, 2023) e Londra (Adelphi, 2025) di Louis-Ferdinand Céline, e Potrebbe anche non esserci più un mondo di H.P.

Welcome to an another great episode from the archives of The Literary Life podcast! This week we bring you an interview our hosts had with special guest Dr. Vigen Guroian, retired professor of Religious Studies and Orthodox Christianity at the University of Virginia and author of twelve book and numerous scholarly articles. Angelina Stanford and Thomas Banks discuss with Dr. Guroian the new edition of his book, Tending the Heart of Virtue. They start out talking about how the first edition of this book came about, which leads into a discussion about the current approach to fairy tales and children's stories in both academia and the publishing industry.  Other topics of conversation include the problem with reducing stories down to a moral, story as mystery, the place of fairy tales in classical education, and the Biblical literacy of the authors of fairy tales. Dr. Guroian also shares his thoughts on people like John Ruskin and Rudyard Kipling. Finally, he shares some suggestions on finding good editions of fairy tale collections.  There is still time to register for this year's upcoming annual Literary Life Online Conference, happening January 23-30, 2026, "The Letter Killeth, but the Spirit Quickeneth: Reading Like a Human". Our speakers will be Dr. Jason Baxter, Jenn Rogers, Dr. Anne Phillips, and, of course, Angelina Stanford and Thomas Banks.
