‘Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came' has baffled readers and critics ever since it was published in Men and Women in 1855. It baffled its author, too. It ‘came upon me as a kind of dream', Browning recalled. ‘I had to write it then and there, and I finished it the same day.' The result, inspired by a line spoken by Edgar (as Poor Tom) in Act III of King Lear, is a grim, hallucinatory quest poem that exemplifies Browning's talent for what G.K. Chesterton called ‘the poetry of mean landscapes'. In this episode, Seamus and Mark read Browning's mysterious poem as a rejection of the resources and consolations established by the Romantics. They then turn to an earlier narrative poem, ‘The Pied Piper of Hamelin' (1843), in which Browning uses a comical, Byronic tone to tell the story of another prophetic figure.

Wordsworth was not unusual among Romantic poets for his enthusiastic support of the French Revolution, but he stands apart from his contemporaries for actually being there to see it for himself (‘Thou wert there,' Coleridge wrote). This episode looks at Wordsworth's retrospective account of his 1791 visit to France, described in books 9 and 10 of The Prelude, and the ways in which it reveals a passionate commitment to republicanism while recoiling from political extremism. Mark and Seamus discuss why, despite Wordsworth's claim of being innately republican, discussion of the intellectual underpinnings of the revolution is strangely absent from the poem, which is more often preoccupied with romance and the imagination, particularly in their power to soften zealotry.

Grant Baker started with nothing - biking to sales meetings and hiding the bike around the corner so clients wouldn't know he couldn't afford a car.He'd go on to build and sell some of New Zealand's best-known companies: 42 Below vodka (sold to Bacardi for $138M), skincare giant Trilogy, and the automotive empire now known as Turners.In this episode he tells the full story of going all in - selling everything he owned to bet on one company, the years of "drinking from a fire hose," the midnight deals that nearly sent him broke, and facing a cancer diagnosis at the height of it all.He reflects on his mentor Eric Watson, his partnership with Geoff Ross building 42 Below, why he believes the real key to success is how much pain you can endure, and how he came to back Kiwi driver Liam Lawson's rise to Formula One.Now a Ferrari collector - 50 and counting - Grant shares hard-won lessons on ambition, resilience, giving back, and why you should never die wondering.Between Two Beers is proudly brought to you by One New Zealand.

According to legend, a young woman who observes certain rites on 20 January, the Eve of St Agnes, will see in her dreams the man she is going to marry. When John Keats found himself in Chichester on that day in 1819, he was inspired to write his own account. In this episode, Seamus and Mark discuss Keats's talent for sublime banality, the competing readings of the lover, Porphyro, and the poem's repurposing of Spenserian allegory for a contemporary love story.

Becki Ross was given two to three years to live. Diagnosed at 42 with stage four, incurable bowel cancer, she's a mum of two teenagers, a teacher, and one of those rare people who lights up a room the second she walks in.When we recorded this, Becki had just been told her treatment options had run out - that the cancer was, in her words, "declaring itself," and that her time is now very short.In one of the most powerful conversations we've ever had, Becki talks about planning her own funeral - the plywood coffin, the celebrant, the plan to climb in herself just to make everyone laugh - and about the parts that aren't funny at all: the fear, the reality of leaving her kids behind, and the perspective that's come with facing it head-on.It's a conversation full of light and shade. We talk about the Cancer Crushers, the village of friends carrying Becki and her kids, the health system she's had to fight through, her daughter Maddie's unforgettable words, and the humour that's got her through all of it.Between Two Beers is proudly brought to you by One New Zealand.

Potter Revisited Episode #114 I'll Have the Espresso Martini AKA Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 16 "In The Hog's Head" Never order an Espresso Martini (or any drink) from the Hog's Head Hermione has kept to herself about her idea for Harry to teach DADA for two weeks - very impressive for her  Harry is finally done his detentions with Umbridge but has a scar from her criminal methods, +1 sucks point  Hermione has advanced to vanishing kittens - does McGonagall not feel weird about that? Harry feels comfortable teaching Ron and Hermione DADA, but not with other people like Hermione suggests, which is understandable  Hermione's time management skills are impressive  Harry is subconsciously planning lessons - he was meant to be a teacher  Hermione is still in contact with Viktor Krum and Ron is losing his mind  Is Ron aware yet of why he is jealous of Krum and his feelings for Hermione? Sirius is giving Harry the cold shoulder - grow up Sirius  We love the trio experiencing their first dodgy pub together - a milestone moment  Interesting that Alberforth Dumbledore runs a dodgy pub while Dumbledore runs a school Lots of people of different years and houses join in to hear from Harry which is great for him to see  Dean Thomas comes despite Seamus' opinions on Harry and Dumbledore which is nice to see  Hermione is Harry's PR rep and is doing her best Thank goodness for Susan Bones bringing up how powerful Harry is and really saving the day  Fred and George are great moderators and really help keep the vibes positive and slyly manage the crowd  It's great that Fred, George, Angelina and others are comfortable with Harry teaching them, despite them being older  Why was Terry Boot in Dumbledore's office? Zacharias Smith is more annoying than we remembered - but each house has an annoying character  Shay wonders if they should have done more to ensure the secrecy of the meeting and group  Mundungus being the woman in the black veil is amazing  It's interesting seeing Luna argue with Hermione, as generally everyone seems to go along with what Hermione says due to seeing her as very intelligent and smart and Hermione is not used to others challenging her like Luna It's good for Hermione's development and growth  Morally Grey Hermione does not tell anyone she has cursed the parchment she has them sign as a fallback security measure and we love this side of her  Hermione drops that Ginny has a boyfriend - good for her  We love seeing evidence that Ginny and Hermione have their own separate friendship and share things they don't with Harry and Ron  Cho couldn't stop looking at Harry during the meeting, and perhaps romance is in the air for them as well Snape Sucks count for Chapter 16: 0 Umbridge Sucks count for Chapter 16: 1 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to  potterrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us:  Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited  

What You'll Learn in This Episode:In this episode, Shayne Daughenbaugh sits down with Seamus Maguire to explore one of the biggest reasons problem-solving fails, even in organizations with experienced people and proven Lean tools. Drawing from his new book, Finding Fact Before Fixing, Seamus explains how cognitive biases, assumptions, and the pressure to find quick answers often lead teams to solve the wrong problem.The conversation explores why hypothesis testing and experimentation should be at the center of every problem-solving effort, how leaders can ask better questions to uncover true root causes, and why collecting the right data is more important than simply collecting more data. Seamus also shares practical ways to challenge assumptions, use the scientific method in everyday problem-solving, and create a culture where teams focus on finding facts before implementing fixes. Key Takeaways:Challenge assumptions before finding solutionsUse hypothesis testing instead of educated guessesAsk better questions to uncover root causesCollect the right data—not just more dataLinks:linkedin.com/in/seamusmaguire?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_ioshttps://www.routledge.com/Finding-Fact-Before-Fixing-How-Business-Professionals-Can-Avoid-False-Assumptions-When-Solving-Problems/Maguire/p/book/9781041130307https://www.findleansolutions.com/https://www.findleansolutions.com/lean-summit/

This week, Jack Sharry talks with Summit Wealth Group Founder & CEO Randy Morris and Head of Advisor Success Seamus O'Brien. After leading the firm's successful transition to independence, Randy and Seamus are now focused on building an advisor-first organization designed for long-term growth. Randy brings more than four decades of industry leadership, while Seamus draws on more than 25 years of experience helping advisory firms scale through advisor development, client experience, and strategic growth initiatives. Randy and Seamus reflect on Summit's first year as an independent RIA, discussing what it took to transition thousands of client accounts without losing a single team member. They explain why organic growth extends far beyond client acquisition, how a strong data foundation is essential for putting AI to work, and why building an intentional culture becomes even more important as firms scale. They also challenge common misconceptions about growth and share what comes next for Summit. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:30) - Recapping Summit Wealth Group's launch as an RIA (04:00) - SEI's role in Summit's transition   (05:40) - Seamus's journey from SEI to Summit Wealth (06:47) - How Summit defines organic growth  (09:21) - What a scalable advisor success platform looks like (10:26) - What Summit looks for in an advisor (12:15)- How Summit has enhanced its client solutions and capabilities  (14:33) - How Summit preserved its culture while scaling rapidly (17:01) - Building an intentional advisor community  (17:57) - What firms misunderstand about growth   (22:10) - What's next for Summit Wealth Group (24:20) - Randy and Seamus' interests outside of work Quotes "Organic growth is the hardest kind of growth. It is the number one driver of valuation and success once you get past that cultural alignment conversation." ~ Seamus O'Brien  "There's no real silver bullet for growth. What works for some might not for others. So we have to be adaptable, and not be afraid to take some calculated risks and make some mistakes." ~ Seamus O'Brien "In a growing company, if you're not intentional with pulling everybody together, you're going to end up with silos. Those silos create fractures in the organization's health." ~ Randy Morris "Intentional pulling together of advisors and their teams in our local communities is paramount to really accomplishing the growth objectives the company is trying to achieve." ~ Randy Morris Links  Randy Morris on LinkedIn Seamus O'Brien on LinkedIn Summit Wealth Group Chelsea Ganey  Carmelle Nemechek Connect with our hosts LifeYield Jack Sharry on LinkedIn Jack Sharry on Twitter Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify LinkedIn Twitter Facebook

Israel Dagg had everything he'd ever chased - a Rugby World Cup, a young family, the life a kid from a Hawke's Bay state house could only dream of. Then he retired, and the question underneath it all hit at once: “if I'm not an All Black, who am I?”In one of the most open conversations we've had on the show, Israel comes clean on the five years that followed - the addiction, the depression, and the spiral he kept hidden while the world saw a highlight reel.After his mum passed away he hit rock bottom: he left his family, moved to Auckland, and spent a Father's Day alone in an apartment wondering how it got so bad. He's honest about what it cost the people who loved him, and clear that no one could have pulled him out but himself.This is the story of how he did it - how ownership became the first step back, why nearly three years sober is the best decision he's ever made, and how he came to see that the happiness he'd been chasing had been in front of him the whole time.Between Two Beers is proudly brought to you by One New Zealand.

Justine Smith has been a fixture of New Zealand comedy for more than 30 years - a Seven Days regular and one of the few women who lasted in a room that pushed most others out.She opens up on the comedy environment younger women were up against, the treatment she swallowed to keep going, and how she turned that guilt into becoming the person the next generation of female comics now comes to. She's also very funny about the rest of it - falling into comedy almost by accident, the terror of her first gig, and three decades of standing in front of a crowd talking about herself for a living.And she tells the remarkable story of her own beginning: adopted as a baby, and reunited with her sister through a single phone call that almost didn't happen.Between Two Beers is proudly brought to you by One New Zealand.

Happy 4th of July. Here is Critical Incidents newest episode. If you want to be featured, email us at Criticalincidentspod@gmail.com I sat down with retired FBI Special Agent Seamus McAlerney to tell the inside story behind Flipping Capo: How the FBI Dismantled the Real Sopranos. A former bank auditor who was told he'd never make it into the Bureau, Seamus landed on the legendary C-10 squad as a brand-new agent in 1998 just as a botched World Trade Center robbery cracked open one of the most significant organized crime cases in FBI history. Assigned to arrest violent DeCavalcante soldier Anthony Capo, the rookie agent chose respect over intimidation, played a patient game of mental chess, and did what no one in the family's 100-year history had ever done: he got a made member to flip. Seamus takes us deep into the real-life world that inspired The Sopranos - the panel of bosses, the Queens strip club, the murders, and a consensual recording of mobsters watching the show and naming which characters were them. Along the way he breaks down how cooperation actually works: proffers, "eating the indictment," the Witness Security Program, RICO and its predicate acts, and why numbers beat letters when it comes to a plea. He also shares the human cost — contracts on his witness and on law enforcement, losing his father mid-case, 9/11 grinding everything to a halt, friends lost in the towers, and a White House commendation for dismantling not one but two crime families at once. A masterclass in patience, teamwork, and the principle that carried his whole career: persistence beats resistance, and credit will find you.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the first people to hear ‘The Ruined Cottage', read aloud to him on a visit to the Wordsworths in 1797, and he later described it as ‘one of the most beautiful poems in the language'. Like ‘Michael' (1800), it depicts the disintegration of ordinary lives under social and psychological pressures, reflecting Wordsworth's interest in rural poverty as much as the natural world. In this episode, Seamus and Mark look at the two poems as part of the literary revolution brought about by the Lyrical Ballads, in which everyday language is used to depict marginal lives without sentiment, guided by Wordsworth's assertion that ‘men who do not wear fine clothes can feel deeply.'

In this episode of the Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss Podcast, Leslie sits down with performance health specialist Seamus Sullivan to explore the deeper connection between identity, body image, and lasting health. Seamus shares his personal journey from competitive wrestling and body image struggles to becoming a longevity specialist helping people optimize their health through science-backed coaching. Together, they discuss how perfectionism, comparison, and shame can keep people stuck, while self-awareness and authenticity create lasting transformation. The conversation dives into the emotional side of weight loss, including the impact of childhood experiences, sports culture, and body dysmorphia. Seamus explains why sustainable health isn't about eliminating foods or following the perfect plan it's about building practical skills, creating supportive habits, and making small adjustments that fit your real life. Leslie and Seamus also discuss how changing your identity often leads to lasting behavioral change.

Seamus McElearney spent years as an FBI agent doing what nobody had done in over a hundred years — he flipped a made man inside the DeCavalcante crime family. The same family the world knows as the real life inspiration behind The Sopranos. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Seamus breaks down exactly how he did it and what happened next. What followed was one of the most remarkable chain reactions in FBI history — flipping one mobster led to three more cooperating witnesses, then a captain, then an acting boss. By the end Seamus and his team had solved eleven murders, convicted seventy one defendants and completely dismantled the DeCavalcante crime family. He also led the takedown of the Colombo and Bonanno families — arresting 120 members and associates including the top leadership of both organizations. _____________________________________________ #TheSopranos #FBI #organizedcrime _____________________________________________ Connect with Seamus McElearney: Buy His Book: https://www.amazon.com/Flipping-Capo-Dismantled-Real-Sopranos/dp/B0DWHS2YVS LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seamus-mcelearney _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 The FBI Agent Who Took Down the Real Sopranos — Seamus's Story 00:20 Growing Up in the Bronx — How It Shaped the Agent He Became 02:56 The Education and Early Career That Led Him to the FBI 04:34 What FBI Selection and Training Actually Look Like From the Inside 07:58 Back to New York — Learning the City and His First Real Cases 09:21 His First Organized Crime Assignment and What It Really Looked Like 10:58 How It All Started — The Robbery and Murder That Opened the Case 13:03 The Witnesses Who Came Forward and How He Built the Investigation 15:39 Wiretaps Decoding Mob Communication and Recording the Evidence That Changed Everything 20:24 When the Arrests Began — Taking Down an Entire Crime Family 21:26 How He Built Enough Trust to Flip an Actual Made Man 25:36 The Domino Effect — How One Cooperator Brought Down an Entire Organization 30:33 Surveillance Searches and the Murders They Uncovered Along the Way 36:51 Preparing for Trial — The Challenge of Actually Convicting Mob Members 45:01 Inside the Courtroom — What It's Really Like Prosecuting Organized Crime 53:49 How Mob Investigation Tactics Have Evolved and Why It Matters 01:03:38 The Major Busts and How Technology Changed Organized Crime Forever 01:10:11 Why the Mob Never Dies and How Modern Gambling Keeps Them Alive 01:13:41 The Real Mob vs The Sopranos — What the Show Got Right and Wrong 01:20:14 Life After the Mob — Gangs Fraud and What Came Next 01:24:09 Retirement and the Private Sector — What Life Looks Like After the FBI 01:26:47 The Lessons From a Career Spent Taking Down America's Most Dangerous Criminals 01:32:17 The Ethics of Using Cooperators — Where the Line Really Is 01:33:02 Why Mob Cooperators Are Going Public and What It Means 01:33:37 Final Thoughts and His Book — What He Wants You to Know _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.
