Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

Welcome to Strictly Jazz Sounds. In this episode, we spotlight saxophonist Mark Turner, an LA native known for his technical brilliance and soulful undertones. Turner's music is influenced by R&B and jazz from his upbringing, as well as legendary saxophonists like Warne Marsh and John Coltrane. Mark's humility and self-deprecation are evident, but his artistry shines through, especially in his latest project, Reflections On: An Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man, produced in collaboration with Jimmy Katz and Giant Step Arts. The episode explores how Turner's experiences as an African American have shaped his work in the thematic 10-part suite inspired by the novel penned by civil rights activist, author and poet, James Weldon Johnson, "An Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man." Our conversation covers Turner's compositional process, the challenges of identity and race, and the historical context behind his music. He also shares plans for future projects, including those inspired by Sci-Fi author Octavia Butler, with hopes of returning to Giant Step Arts. You'll hear four movements from the quintet: Mark Turner-tenor sax and narration, Jason Palmer-trumpet, David Virelles-piano, Matt Brewer-bass, and Nasheet Waits-drums. The featured compositions are Movement 1: Anonymous-4:04 (4:24), Movement 4: New York-12:03 (45:18), Movement 9: Identity Politics-6:11(1:07:00), and Movement 10: Closure-2:22 (01:20:08). I am grateful to Jimmy Katz and Giant Step Arts for use of the recordings. Thank you for tuning in. If you haven't subscribed yet, please do so to stay updated on future episodes, jazz news, and our annual Top 20 Jazz playlist. All the music played on this podcast has been authorized.

Superhero narratives constantly wrestle with redemption—but what does it really mean when a villain joins the heroes? This episode digs into the complex ethics of villain redemption arcs and the roles heroes play in them, examining what separates genuine transformation from simple alliance-shifting. Taking inspiration from Anthony Gramuglia's YouTube video "Ranking Superheroes By How Many Villains They Redeemed," we explore what leads some heroes, from Spider-Man to the X-Men, to redeem more of their villains than others.Key Discussion Points:What's the difference between a villain becoming redeemed versus simply becoming an ally or antihero, and why does that distinction matter ethically?How do different heroes approach villain redemption, and what does Spider-Man's track record tell us about mercy versus enabling harm?Why do the X-Men recruit so many former villains, and does their approach to redemption actually work or just create moral hazards?How do we distinguish between genuine remorse and change versus villains who just switch sides for convenience or self-interest?The discussion examines how superhero narratives grapple with the challenging ethics of reformation, forgiveness, and what constitutes meaningful transformation. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

In this episode, Dave, Rob, and Kurt are teaming up with Jason and Dee from The Surely You Can't Be Serious Podcast for the ultimate showdown — the final 80s movie bracket, Sci-Fi and Fantasy edition! Sixteen legendary films enter the arena, from time-traveling adventures like Back to the Future to alien encounters in E.T. and Aliens, and the wild imagination of The Goonies and Beetlejuice. It's a decade where special effects, storytelling, and pure creativity collided to give us some of the most unforgettable movies ever made, and this crew is ready to debate, defend, and celebrate every last one As the bracket heats up, no film is safe — cult classics and box office smashes alike will go head-to-head until only two remain standing. Expect plenty of laughs, passionate arguments, and maybe even a few shocking eliminations as these five movie lovers break down what truly defines the 80s Sci-Fi and Fantasy genre.

We just tuned into the first three episodes of Pluribus on Apple TV, and we're blown away! The show feels trippy, loopy, and totally absorbing, exactly what you'd expect from the creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Its atmosphere pulls you in, the story layers psychological sci-fi with sharp character work, and the visuals are top-notch. Rhea Seehorn absolutely commands the screen as Carol, giving a nuanced performance right in the middle of a bizarre, hive-mind world where individuality is on the line. The direction builds relentless tension, and each episode leaves you wanting more.As critics and fans point out, Pluribus is a rare, original television event. Its themes of individuality, AI, and collective consciousness are strikingly relevant, and it's already earning perfect ratings.Are you loving the weird twists and unsettling world so far?

When a Klingon Bird-of-Prey brings aboard a couple of disheveled humans, their ass-kicking and ship-stealing behavior has the High Council super pissed. But after Starfleet figures out who these augmented augments are, the Entrepreneur picks up Dr. Arik Soong and brings him along on their mission to avert a war. How is Captain Archer like a UPS driver? Which character has a cry-after-sex vibe? What's an extremely bad sign in a holding cell? It's the episode that missed its one chance to ask a Soong about a Singh.Support the production of The Greatest GenerationGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Follow The Game of Buttholes: The Will of the Riker - Quantum LeapThe Greatest Generation is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam Ragusea & Dark MateriaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestGen and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
