His position is such that he answers only to the king and the prime minister.In 1918, during the height of the Great War, Joanna Holmes and the Watsons receive a late-night, clandestine visit from Sir William Radcliffe, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who brings with him an agonizing tale of blackmail; a case so sensitive that it can only be spoken of in the confines of 221B Baker Street.Sir William's family has been forced to pay exorbitant sums for several of the photographs, but even more salacious pictures remain in the blackmailer's possession—and will no doubt carry greater demands and threats. Scotland Yard cannot be involved, for fear of public disclosure. It thus falls on the shoulders of Joanna and the Watsons to expose the blackmailer and procure the photographs before irreparable harm comes to the chancellor and his family.https://www.leonardgoldberg.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

In this episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Arkansas Prof. Albert Cheng and Ret. MN Justice Barry Anderson speak with Wilfrid Prest, Emeritus Professor and Visiting Research Fellow in History and Law at the University of Adelaide in Australia, and biographer of Sir William Blackstone, among the most influential figures in the history of English common law. Prof. Prest discusses Blackstone's formative years in mid-18th-century London and at Pembroke College, Oxford, where a classical education, Enlightenment thought, and legal scholarship shaped his intellectual path. He describes Blackstone's early legal and academic career, including his role as the first Vinerian Professor of English Law and author of An Analysis of the Laws of England. Prest explores how Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England brought clarity and coherence to England's centuries old legal tradition, drawing from foundational documents like Magna Carta and formative figures such as Bracton, Fortescue, and Coke. He examines the Commentaries' lasting impact on American Founding Fathers, including both admirers like Alexander Hamilton and Chief Justice John Marshall and critics like Thomas Jefferson. Prest concludes with reflections on Blackstone's enduring legacy in promoting the rule of law and legal education worldwide. In closing, Prof. Prest reads a passage from his book, William Blackstone: Law and Letters in the Eighteenth Century. 

Kids can take it. You can coddle them. You can protect them with everything you have, but life is not simply coming for them; it already has them. Last year, Armored, the spectacularly spooky adventure story from writer Michael Schwartz and artist Ismael Hernandez, struck a deep emotional chord in us. The series seemingly came out of nowhere and walloped us with a powerfully relatable ghost story about family, loss, and perseverance. We gave it the Stampie for Best Surprise Comic, and the more times we re-read it, the more comfortable we are with that declaration. Armored traffics in recognizable tropes, but executes them perfectly through a singular vision. At the story's core is Andy, a child forced into the foster system after his parents mysteriously vanish. He's planted in a home dealing with its own awful tragedy, which propels him into a confrontation with a haunted suit of armor. With the ghostly Sir William by his side, Andy seeks to solve the disappearance of his folks while stumbling into battle with ancient evil. Having devoured the single issues from Clover Press, we patiently awaited word of a proper hardcover collection. Friends, we're ecstatic to be the first to tell you this: the Armored hardcover is almost here, and its Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page is already up and running (CLICK HERE AND GET NOTIFIED). Not only that, but we also have the first look at the new Armored hardcover collection artwork by artist Francesco Tomaselli. Please bask in its beauty while you listen to this week's podcast with author Michael Schwartz discussing Armored, how the theft of his comic book collection only intensified his comic book addiction, and why kids need stories with emotionally dark realities. Armored is published by Clover Press, written by Michael Schwartz, illustrated by Ismael Hernandez, lettered by Ferran Delgado, and edited by Chris Stevens.

De toutes les pièces de Shakespeare, Richard III est sans doute celle qui se prête la plus à une réinterprétation contemporaine. Surtout dans une époque où les despotes les plus extravagants s'arrogent de nouveau le pouvoir, où la classe politique n'est plus que coups bas entre structures claniques. No Beast So Fierce transpose donc l'éternelle lutte entre les York et les Lancaster dans la pègre maghrébine berlinoise, Richard s'appelle ici Rachida et fomente dans l'ombre un complot pour arriver au sommet de l'empire mafieux. Comme elle le dira à sa mère : "tu connais le topo, je vais le réécrire un petit peu". Burhan Qurbani malaxe donc le classique de Sir William pour y incorporer propos sur le patriarcat, l'immigration et l'empouvoirement féminin. Tout transpire la guerre dans No Beast So Fierce : de clans, de sexe, voire tout court quand même l'écho du conflit au Moyen-Orient se fait entendre via un casting composé, dans les deux rôles clés, d'actrices syriennes (Kneida Hmeidan) et palestiniennes (Hiam Abbas) qui se sont exilées de leurs pays respectifs. Qurbani leur offre un ahurissant terrain de jeu, entremêlant environnement ultra-urbain et zones désertiques, radicalité du théâtre d'avant-garde et virtuosité formelle du cinéma. De même, la langue s'hybride entre monologues shakespeariens et argot de la rue, les mots claquant encore plus forts que les séquences de fusillades. No Beast So Fierce y construit un terrassant maelström, évacuant toutes les conventions dans un sidérant dernier acte, concentré sur la colère face à une Europe sombrant dans sa face obscure, prête à toutes les trahisons de ses promesses pour régner par la peur.Le 11 octobre 1975, Lorne Michaels aura dû surpasser la trouille de sa vie pour mener à bien la toute première émission du Saturday Night Live. En cinquante ans, le show télé est devenu une institution de la télé américaine, au point qu'on ait oublié combien il fut une bascule culturelle, en faisant entrer dans les foyers une nouvelle génération de comiques, dynamiteurs des mœurs. Saturday Night fait le compte à rebours de l'heure et demie qui va précéder la mise à l'antenne de l'émission, accroché aux basques de Michaels, jeune producteur naviguant entre avaries techniques, comédiens ultra-narcissiques et mise en place des numéros. Une véritable ruche bourdonnante racontant l'Amérique du milieu des années 70 dans son énergie comme dans ses excès. Brillant dans sa manière d'incarner en quelques secondes des anecdotes sur les piliers de l'émission, de Chevy Chase à John Belushi, faire monter la pression façon cocotte-minute ou résumer les coulisses du télé-business, Saturday Night est encore meilleur quand il rappelle que plus encore qu'un programme devenu mythique, cette aventure folle fut aussi celle d'un souffle de liberté.No Beast So Fierce en salles le 26 mars. / Saturday Night en location sur Apple TV+ et Prime Video.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Sir Will is an awesome character. He lives out his Toyota 4Runner and travels the country enjoying his freedom. "Sir William Goes". We caught up with Sir William at AZ Toy Pros on a Sunday afternoon MOD Day. It's always a good time getting to know someone wrenching on trucks and stuffing our faces with Mexican food. Mark (@lmtl3ss_or) invited us over to do the podcast so we broke out the moonshine, started telling lies and calling up the woman. It was a blast. You can find Sir William Goes on his YouTube Channel and Social Media. @sirwilliamgoes

They discuss his extraordinary journey from a capitalist in Russia to a leading figure in the fight against corruption and human rights abuses. Browder recounts the tragic story of his lawyer, Sergey Magnitsky, who was tortured and killed in a Russian prison after uncovering a massive fraud involving the Russian government. This led to the creation of the Magnitsky Act, a groundbreaking piece of legislation aimed at holding human rights violators accountable. Browder discusses the global impact of the Magnitsky Act and its potential to change the landscape of accountability for corruption and human rights abuses.

Florence Cook, a remarkable medium of the late 19th century, claimed the ability to materialize a spirit named Katie King, captivating audiences with her otherworldly performances. This episode delves into the fascinating intersection of spiritualism, science, and skepticism as we explore Florence's journey alongside the esteemed scientist William Crookes, who sought to validate her abilities through rigorous experimentation. With a backdrop of seances and spirit cabinets, we examine whether Florence truly channeled Katie or if it was all an elaborate hoax. The episode also touches on the societal perceptions of mediums and the blend of magic and spirituality during this era.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2024! La Casa Roja (The Red Lodge) es un relato de terror del escritor inglés H. Russell Wakefield (1888-1964), publicado en la antología de 1928: Ellos regresan por la noche: un libro de historias de fantasmas (They Return at Evening: A Book of Ghost Stories). Posteriormente aparecería en Una marea de terror (A Tide Of Terror); La compañía fantasma (The Ghost's Companion) y La cámara de los horrores (Chamber Of Horrors) La Casa Roja, uno de los mejores cuentos de H. Russell Wakefield, relata la historia de una elegante casa de campo inglesa, situada cerca de un río, que parece el lugar perfecto para que una familia joven pase las vacaciones; sin embargo, en la Casa Roja hay cosas peores que los fantasmas. El pasado dejó sus marcas en el lugar, y son imborrables [ver: Psicología de las Casas Embrujadas] La Casa Roja parece ser la típica historia inglesa de casas embrujadas; sin embargo, H. Russell Wakefield se aleja de los paradigmas del género, con sus enormes mansiones góticas en ruinas y muertes anunciadas. Lo que predomina aquí es la insinuación, la sutileza, el terror como un vago trasfondo: [«Mi primera incertidumbre, vaga y tenue en el comienzo, vino tan pronto como crucé el umbral. Soy pintor de profesión y, por lo tanto, respondo claramente a los tonos del color. Bueno, era un día brillantemente hermoso, el salón de la Casa Roja estaba completamente iluminado, pero parecía un poco fuera de lugar, por así decirlo, como si lo estuviera mirando a través de un par de lentes ligeramente oscurecidos. Sólo un pintor lo habría notado, me imagino.»] La Casa Roja no es un cliché. Evoca la extrañeza, y eso nos mantiene inmersos en una historia mucho más espeluznante que aquellas donde las escaleras crujen y se oye el sonido de pasos amortiguados en habitaciones vacías. De hecho, el lector sabe lo que está ocurriendo antes de que los personajes comprendan la gravedad de su situación; lo cual es curioso, ya que la narración en retrospectiva implica que el narrador sobrevivirá, por lo que la presentación de la Casa Roja [y especialmente la de su esposa e hijo] sirve para enfocar las preocupaciones del lector [ver La Casa como entidad orgánica y consciente en el Gótico] H.R. Wakefield proporciona una serie de características inusuales para el narrador promedio de este tipo de historias: es pintor [los narradores de H.R. Wakefield suelen ser artistas o escritores], en un momento confiesa que es «un poco psíquico» además de ser oriundo de las «Tierras Altas» [Highlander]. La idea del narrador de que su sensibilidad paranormal se debe a su ascendencia es extraña, como si los celtas tuviesen mayor capacidad de sintonizarse con lo sobrenatural, en contraste con los mundanos anglosajones. En todo caso, su personalidad es la opuesta a la del típico protagonista del género [generalmente un excéptico recalcitrante]. Es un hombre muy observador, y si bien es sensible a los sucesos sobrenaturales, no es frívolo ni fácil de engañar. El argumento de La Casa Roja es simple: una familia burguesa se muda a una casa de campo para pasar sus vacaciones, desafortunadamente, la Casa y sus «Ocupantes Permanentes» [así los denomina el narrador] tienen otras intenciones. Al principio todo transcurre con cierta normalidad, hasta que el narrador descubre pequeñas manchas de limo por toda la casa, que podrían provenir del río cercano, y extrañas figuras fantasmales moviéndose en las ventanas y caminando por los pasillos. Poco a poco, los eventos paranornales empiezan a aumentar en intensidad y frecuencia. Los «Ocupantes Permanentes» se vuelven más audaces y aterradores. El pequeño Tim ve un «mono verde» en el río cercano, Mary vislumbra siluetas donde no debería haber nadie, y el narrador siente tres espectros malignos que tiran psíquicamente de él para que abra una ventana por la noche y los vea directamente [ver: Casas como metáfora de la psique en el Horror] Al parecer, estas fuerzas invisibles están comunicándose con los miembros de la familia [a su manera] hasta que cada uno comienza a sentir la abrumadora compulsión de correr hacia el río y ahogarse. H. Russell Wakefield jamás menciona la palabra «fantasma». Describe a los «Ocupantes Permanentes» en términos humanos [rostros, siluetas], pero también son verdes y viscosos. Me pregunto si mencionar el libro del filósofo británico Henry Sidgwick: El uso de las palabras en el razonamiento (The Use Of Words In Reasoning), una de las lecturas de cabecera del narrador [un libro sobre lógica es inesperado como la lectura favorita de un pintor], insinúa que «fantasma» es un término insuficiente para describir a las entidades que habitan la Casa Roja. ¿Quiénes son estas entidades? Sir William, un vecino informado, cuenta la historia de la Casa Roja, y asume que está embrujada por la esposa del propietario original [asesinada], y por los siguientes residentes [excepto por una pareja que no tuvo problemas durante 15 años]. Pero, al incluir el jardín y el río, este embrujo parece ir más allá de los límites de la propiedad, casi como si se tratara de un Genius Loci, un lugar malvado que provocó o influenció aquellos primeros asesinatos [ver: La verdadera Entidad que se esconde Hill House] La Casa Roja de H.R. Wakefield presagia el modelo que llegaría a convertirse en un cliché del género, sobre todo de las novelas sobrenaturales de las décadas de 1970 y 1980 y sus adaptaciones cinematográficas: la familia modelo [a menudo un tipo artístico, su esposa y su hija/o sensible] se mudan a una casa antigua, aparentemente una ganga ofrecida por un agente inmobiliario inescrupuloso, y se encuentran con cosas espeluznantes [ver: El ABC de las historias de fantasmas]. Esto es común para nosotros, pero raro en la ficción inglesa de entreguerra, sobre todo poner en peligro a todo un grupo familiar, no únicamente a un solitario investigador psíquico o un desafortunado académico [ver: La Casa Embrujada como representación del cuerpo de la mujer] En cierto modo, La Casa Roja de H. Russell Wakefield emplea una dinámica nueva sin alejarse demasiado de los aspectos jamesianos fundamentales. Hablando de M. R. James, la aparición del limo es tan llamativa y desagradablemente física como el mejor de sus fantasmas, y el hecho de que el niño, Tim, la confunda con un «mono verde», le da al lector una imagen sorprendentemente vívida [ver: Black Goo y otras monstruosidades amorfas en la ficción]. H.R. Wakefield, como M.R. James, no andan con vueltas. Antes de que termine el primer párrafo, incluso la primera línea, sabemos que la Casa Roja es una casa malvada, y apenas hay una palabra desperdiciada mientras somos llevados por los eventos de la historia. La Casa Roja de la historia está inspirada en una casa real que H. Russell Wakefield visitó en 1917, situada cerca del puente de Richmond, al sudoeste de Londres. La casa tenía una mala reputación, y mientras estuvo allí, Wakefield se sintió «oprimido por un miedo sin nombre», según declaró. Un día, mientras estaba en el jardín, miró las ventanas del primer piso y vio «una cara borrosa en una de ellas; la cara de un hombre, pero no había ningún hombre en la casa». Por otro lado, la Casa Roja reaparecerá en otra historia de H.R. Wakefield: La gallina ciega (Blind Man's Buff), que esperamos traducir próximamente en El Espejo Gótico.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're gearing up for an epic journey through chivalry and valor as we count down our Top 5 Knights in film and television. After that, we'll delve into the mystical and mysterious world of The Green Knight and switch gears for some light-hearted adventures with Mike the Knight.Top 5 Knights in Film and Television:Sir Lancelot in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" (1975) - This comedic take on the legendary knight mixes absurdity with classic Arthurian elements, making Sir Lancelot both heroic and hilariously oblivious.Aragorn in "The Lord of the Rings" series - While not a knight in the traditional sense, Aragorn embodies the knightly virtues of bravery, loyalty, and leadership, playing a crucial role in Middle-earth's battles against evil.Sir William Thatcher in "A Knight's Tale" (2001) - Portrayed by Heath Ledger, Sir William's journey from peasant to pseudo-knight captures the spirit of chivalry and the pursuit of honor and recognition within the rigid class systems of medieval society.The Black Knight in "Excalibur" (1981) - A mysterious and formidable figure, the Black Knight in this retelling of the Arthurian legends represents the darker aspects of knighthood and chivalry, providing a stark contrast to more idealistic portrayals.Brienne of Tarth in "Game of Thrones" (TV Series) - Brienne challenges traditional gender roles within the knightly order, proving herself through unmatched bravery and a firm moral compass, making her one of the most respected and memorable knights in modern television.The Green Knight (2021) Directed by David Lowery, The Green Knight presents a visually stunning and thematically rich adaptation of the Arthurian legend, "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight." The film follows Gawain, played by Dev Patel, on a perilous quest that explores themes of honor, bravery, and the nature of true heroism. The movie's slow-burning narrative and atmospheric tension set it apart from traditional knightly tales, offering a fresh take on the complexities of personal growth and virtue.Switching to a much lighter tone, Mike the Knight is a delightful animated series that introduces younger audiences to a fantastical medieval world. Mike, a young knight-in-training, embarks on adventures that teach him about responsibility, problem-solving, and the importance of being kind. It's a great way to introduce the concepts of knighthood and chivalry to kids in an engaging and educational manner.Whether you're in the mood for a profound cinematic experience with The Green Knight or looking for family-friendly fun with Mike the Knight, today's episode promises a thrilling exploration of what it means to be a knight in both lore and life. Join us as we don the armor of analysis and venture forth into the realm of knights and nobility.

In the second episode of my 2-part examination of the life and career of Sir William Crookes (1832-1919), I explore events that inspired his interest in spiritualism, his unique methods of combining his studies in this area with his scientific background, and his work with some well-known 19th-century mediums, as well as the reception his work with mediums received from the scientific and spiritualist communities. ***** References Barral, Miguel. “The Ghosts of William Crookes.” https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en/science/leading-figures/the-ghosts-of-william-crookes/ Crookes, William.

I first learned about British physicist and chemist Sir William Crookes (1832-1919) several months ago, while working on my episode on X-rays. Recently, while reading Violet Tweedale's Ghosts I Have Seen and Other Psychic Experiences, I learned that Sir William had an interest in spiritual and paranormal matters in addition to the sciences. In this episode, I focus on some of his better known scientific discoveries (and will discuss his relationship to the paranormal next time). ***** References Barral, Miguel. “The Ghosts of William Crookes.” https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en/science/leading-figures/the-ghosts-of-william-crookes/ Crookes, Sir William.

Sir William Lucas has been to St. James's Palace, and he wants to make sure that everyone knows about it. This episode we get into the particulars of Sir William's knighthood and stop by his favorite spot for a ball. If you have ever danced the minuet under the watchful gaze of a monarch, this episode is for you. You can find us online at https://www.thethingaboutausten.com and follow us on Instagram @TheThingAboutAusten and on Twitter @Austen_Things. You can also email us at TheThingAboutAusten@gmail.com.

In this episode, we engage with the socially amiable Sir William Lucas and his family, who live in all their knightly pride and ample entitlement at Lucas Lodge. Despite the pomp, there is an understated charm to Sir William, a product of humility gently carved by his past as a tradesman. His family forms a pleasant foil to our Bennets, with a particular focus on the Lucases' eldest daughter Charlotte, a sensible friend and confidante for Elizabeth Bennet.There is much talk about a recently held ball with the central topic being perhaps the most deciding factor of our story, Mr. Bingley's preference of Jane Bennet. The nuances of Mr. Bingley and Jane Bennet's budding affection are speculated and scrutinised, with the notably infamous Mr. Darcy, despite his disregard for social pleasantries, begins to trickle into the canvas of our primary concern. The initial impressions and opinions regarding the family of Netherfield give way to deeper interactions and recurring visits. Bingley's admiration for the eldest Bennet becomes increasingly obvious, though not to the eyes of society at large - Jane's strength of feeling and composed manner skilfully disguises her burgeoning affections.We are also privy to a rather candid discussion between Elizabeth and Charlotte concerning the strengths and pitfalls of concealing one's affections in the game of love and courtship. Little do they suspect the unexpected turn of events they are about to encounter.For, indeed, Elizabeth unknowingly begins to occupy a corner of Mr. Darcy's mind, a place she presently shares with unaesthetic opinions of her appearance and manners. Yet, entirely unbeknown to her, the aspects that were once subjects of criticism become, oddly enough, sources of attraction for our leading man.

In the latest podcast from the Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club, we meet Andrew Nahum, curator and historian, Peter Grimsdale, author and TV producer and Painting the Cave (a specialist in creative digital technologies) to learn about how the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust has devised a new and original virtual journey through the life and work of one of Britain's greatest carmakers and designers, Sir William Lyons.This is the first exhibition devoted to his work, showing how his unique eye for style evolved from motorcycle sidecars to dramatic racing and road cars. It is also the first vehicle museum experience to be originated online. From the first SS sidecars to the Jaguar E-type, it gives a vivid 3-D tour in virtual space through Lyon's life and his creations. This ground-breaking online exhibition journey draws on the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust's collection of vehicles and archives, exhibited at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon and the Coventry Transport Museum. This virtual exhibition gives new access to some of its precious treasures.

When the Scots were oppressed, and Scottish fortunes were at their lowest he was the chief inspiration for their resistance. A man who stood up to the King of England, Edward I, emerging from obscurity to gain a spectacular victory over the English, before enduring a crushing defeat and being put to death in the most barbaric way. A national hero who has gained great admiration, this is the story of Sir William Wallace one time Guardian of Scotland.

Today we invite our new friend, Joel Ozborn, to talk with us a little Billy Joel. As we find out Joel (Ozborn, not Billy) used to work very closely with the late comic/magician The Amazing Jonathan (who hated Billy Joel music). But, Joel made his boss (and friend) listen to it anyway, which is awesome. Joel O. discovered Billy Joel by way of Australia, where he lives now. So, a different perspective across the globe on how Sir William brings the planet together in his greatness. If you are one of our Australian listener friends, go see either of the Joel's perform live.

This is Part One of Two.On the next morning of Sunday 10th August at 09:08am, Victor Ford-Lloyd the butler to Sir William Ackroyd entered the top floor flat at 69 Eaton Place after a night out. In the master bedroom, he found his friend, his lover and the man servant to Sir William dead. Having died several hours earlier, he was lying motionless, with a sticky pool of congealed blood about his head, having had his skull brutally smashed in with a hammer.But why?Was this a robbery? A revenge killing? Or an attack on an openly gay man? With Sir William in Scotland and Victor at several clubs in the city at the time of the murder, neither witnessed the attack, or saw any potential suspects. So, what happened, and who murdered Sir William's manservant?Murder Mile is researched, written and performed by Michael J Buchanan-Dunne of Murder Mile Walks with the main musical themes written and performed by Erik Stein and Jon Boux of Cult With No Name with additional music, as used under the Creative Commons License 4.0 (Attribution) via Free Music Archive and YouTube Music.

The life of Sir William Marshal reads like a medieval story book. Starting out as a landless squire whose only possession was family connections, Marshal rose from household knight to become one of the wealthiest and most powerful nobles in early thirteenth century England. Ultimately, he was chosen by his peers to be the guardian and regent of a boy king, during a French invasion abetted by a baronial revolt. William Marshal's remarkable rise was due to the qualities that made him, in the words of both friends and foes, “the finest knight in all the world,” his prowess, his acumen in both war and court politics, and, above all, his reputation for unshakeable loyalty.In this episode Richard and Ellen retell stories about William Marshal's life as a landless household knight. A follow on episode explores his career as a baron and his complicated relationship with King John of Magna Carta and Robin Hood notoriety. The focus of both episodes is on the key to William Marshal's success, his practical chivalry
