Podcasts about Snail

A tidy little hour of comicsy nattering for you this time, as Al and Paul discuss Marvel/Star Wars: Hope Assembles, Fugitive X-Force, Origin III, The Snail and the extensions of Fury of Firestorm and Deadman, and review Fixation and The Forever Home. I say I say I say, my Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe has no nose. How does it smell? It does not, it is a conceptual feature of this podcast.

Gabrielle Noe, of The Silk Snail, is our guest and the show is sponsored by CyberPointers, the online chapter of the American Needlepoint Guild. Learn about them at cyberpointers.org. Gabrielle and her partner Kylie met through TikTok, then IRL at a Houston needlepoint store. That meeting evolved into their new printed-canvas business, The Silk Snail. Their first set of canvases went on sale Tuesday, Sept. 8 at navynoo.com. In our conversation, we learn about their experiences forming the business and how they go about designing canvases. We also discuss the dynamics of the needlepoint stitching community. The Silk Snail has all of the usual social media outlets so it's easy to follow them. When you have a minute, visit their website and check out their merch.—Cindy and Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.

Why Fit Girl Magic Is Becoming Off Duty Life After 7 years and nearly 400 episodes, the podcast has a new name. And no, I didn't just get bored and decide we needed a new logo. I wanted a bigger conversation. Yes, we're still going to talk health, menopause, food, workouts, sleep, all of it. I'm not escorting protein and strength training from the building. We're just making the room bigger. Because somewhere along the way, I realized I'm less interested in helping women cram one more healthy habit into an already packed life and way more interested in this: Are we actually enjoying the life we're working so damn hard to manage? In this Off Duty Life episode, I'm talking about what sparked the shift: moving to Florida knowing approximately zero people, Philip retiring, and realizing I had a much easier time answering what do I need to do? than what do I actually like doing? We're getting into: Why being "on duty" is about more than your to-do list The giant mental Jenga game so many women are playing every day Why a 30-minute workout doesn't need an apology Why sitting on your ass is, in fact, a perfectly acceptable plan What "Off Duty" actually means (spoiler: no coconuts required) Where the podcast is headed next: friendships, marriage, sex, starting over, and figuring out what the hell we actually enjoy Your first Off Duty Experiment: Name three things you want to do in the next 30 days simply because you'd enjoy them. They don't need to improve you. They don't need to make you healthier. They don't need to make you money. Nobody else needs to benefit. If your first thought is I have no freaking idea, that's exactly why we're having this conversation. I'm also sharing a preview of what else is coming in the Off Duty world, including something involving an envelope, a stamp, and your actual mailbox. Yep. Snail mail is making a comeback. Want to know what's coming in the mail? Join the Off Duty Club: https://theoffdutylife.com/odc_sept We've spent enough years being on duty. Let's figure out what happens when we clock out.

In 1928, May Donoghue was drinking ginger beer at a café in Paisley when a friend poured the last of an opaque bottle into her glass. Out came the decomposed remains of a snail, something she could not have seen before drinking from it. She later became ill and sued the drink's manufacturer, David Stevenson.The problem was that May had not bought the drink herself, so she had no contract with the manufacturer. But in 1932, the House of Lords ruled that a maker of products owes consumers a duty to take reasonable care, even without a direct contract.That decision, Donoghue v Stevenson, created the modern “duty of care” principle at the heart of negligence law. One alleged snail in one bottle of ginger beer changed consumer protection and personal-injury law around the world, although whether the snail was ever actually there was never proved in court.

"Automated Paradise" The Bristol-born Jon Klein got his start with the late-seventies post-punk outfit Europeans. After their break-up he formed the porto-goth band Specimen, who put out a handful of winning singles, but splintered before an album could be released. In 1987 Klein joined Siouxsie and the Banshees and went on to record three records with them: Peepshow, Superstition and The Rapture. Although Klein left the band in 1994, from there he moved from strength to strength, playing and recording with Shriekbak, Thomas Dolby, Talvin Singh and Space Tribe. He toured with Sinead O'Connor as her lead guitarist in 1995 and he played everywhere from Pinkpop to Glastonbury to Lollapalooza. Klein is one of those guys who has always stayed busy: he played in the band SNAIL, toured Southeast Asia as the musical director for Dr. Penguin's Magic Circus, went to art school and knocked out a degree in Fine Art and Critical Theory, has his own production company called Ground Control, co- produced an album for Fangoria, which hit Number One in Spain, composed soundtracks for film and theatre companies and played in the supergroup, Spammed with Horace Panter, Rat Scabies and Terry Edwards. He's also a filmmaker, an international fine artist and he is a member of the Tuned In Community Music Project with Jah Wobble. Klein and Jah Wobble have put out several fabulous albums, including A Brief History of Now and their latest effort, Automated Paradise. A jittery blast of searing post-punk and cultural dread, Automated Paradise finds Klein in fine form, slashing brilliantly away through each composition with fiery resolve. www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) IG + BLUESKY + THREADS: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

Marvel's Midnight Universe is getting ready to open its doors, and this week we're going straight to two of the writers helping build it. Benjamin Percy and Phillip Kennedy Johnson join the AIPT Comics Podcast for an extended conversation about Midnight Fantastic Four and Midnight Spider-Man, two of the three series launching Marvel's new horror-infused universe on October 7. Along with Jonathan Hickman on Midnight X-Men, Percy and Johnson are helping to establish a world in which familiar Marvel characters are being rebuilt through body horror, cosmic terror, and some seriously disturbing new origins. Percy digs into the Lovecraftian nightmare behind his Fantastic Four, why their familiar powers are closer to curses, the influence of California's strange scientific and occult history, and just how grotesque Reed Richards' elasticity can become. Johnson takes us inside his radically different Peter Parker, the role Oscorp plays in his transformation, ScieTronc's horrifying designs, and why calling this version of Peter "Man-Spider" barely scratches the surface. The conversation also gets into the larger Midnight Universe, including how Percy, Johnson, and Hickman are coordinating their books, how carefully they're approaching other Marvel characters, plans for the universe to eventually expand, and yes, whether Hickman's beloved data pages are coming along for the ride.

Dave: Tomb of Apocalypse #1 (Pablo Villalobos) Chris: Next Level: One Shot #1 (Fernando Blanco Main Cover) Interview: Midnight Universe - Ben Percy (Midnight FF) and Phillip Kennedy Johnson (Midnight Spider-Man) - Out October 7, FOC Aug 31 You're both taking characters whose origins are among the most familiar in comics and rebuilding them through horror. What was the first thing each of you identified in the classic Fantastic Four and Spider-Man origins that could become genuinely frightening in the Midnight Universe? Since this is horror, are you inverting who is the hero? I.e. is Spider-Man the villain and hsi rogues the bad guys, same for FF, or is that giving too much away? Ben, the Fantastic Four have always been explorers pushing into the unknown, but here that curiosity seems potentially catastrophic. How much of Midnight Fantastic Four is about Reed Richards being unable to leave certain doors unopened, even when every instinct should tell him to stop? Phillip, you've described wanting Peter Parker's transformation to feel like something conceived by H.R. Giger and directed by David Cronenberg. Once Peter becomes this grotesque spider hybrid, how do you preserve the humanity and responsibility that make him recognizably Spider-Man? Both books seem fascinated with science going somewhere it absolutely should not go. How differently do Reed and Peter respond to the realization that scientific progress has created something horrifying, and do you see them as cautionary reflections of each other? The solicit for Midnight Fantastic Four #2 mentions revisiting and redefining the perils of the atomic age. Ben, what interested you about connecting the Fantastic Four to that particular period of scientific optimism, anxiety, and destruction? Phillip, Oscorp isn't simply responsible for Peter's transformation. They're apparently using what they learn from him to create more human-animal hybrids. Does that give this version of Spider-Man a different relationship with his rogues gallery, especially characters like the Lizard and Doctor Octopus? Kev Walker and ScieTronc have incredibly distinct visual identities. Were there moments when their designs or pages came back and actually changed your understanding of this universe, or pushed the horror further than what you'd originally scripted? Horror can become less frightening once readers understand its rules. With both of you planning potentially very long runs, how do you keep the Midnight Universe mysterious and unsettling after readers have spent 20, 30, or even 50 issues living inside it? I know your books haven't launched just yet, but it's hard not to be excited for your books to somehow connect, given Spidey and the FF are thoroughly linked in the 616. Have you dreamed up crossovers yet? Finally, the important Midnight Universe question: if Midnight Spider-Man and the Midnight Fantastic Four were trapped together in a horror movie, who dies first, who somehow survives, and who makes the catastrophically bad decision to say, “Let's split up”?

Send us Fan MailListen to Gerardo Moceri Jr., co-owner of Gerardo's Pizzeria in Sedona, Arizona, on The Hot Slice Podcast with Pizza Today.What does it look like when the second generation of a pizzeria learns about the Slow Food movement and brings sustainable practices back to the family business? In the case of Gerardo Moceri Jr., it means stone-milled flour made from ancient grains, house-made mozzarella and a Snail of Approval.In this episode of The Hot Slice podcast, we sit down with Gerardo Jr., who earned a degree in sustainability from Arizona State University and studied at Italy's University of Gastronomic Sciences. He's used the experience to improve the product and customer experience at the family-owned wood-fired pizzeria by deepening the commitment to regenerative agriculture and turning the restaurant into a working teaching kitchen for culinary interns.Here's what Gerardo Jr. discusses:The Snail of Approval: What the Slow Food movement's recognition means for a pizzeria and how it shapes everyday sourcing decisions.Flour first: Why he blends a stone-milled desert heritage wheat with a regeneratively farmed flour and what it does for dough hydration and flavor.Making mozzarella in-house: The labor, the craft and why it creates more menu flexibility than buying it ready-made.Sustainability in practice: Composting programs, recycled packaging and how to build greener operations incrementally without tanking your margins.Working with local farmers: Balancing menu consistency with seasonal availability, and why flexibility is the key to avoiding food waste.The teaching kitchen: How paid culinary internships pass down skills and fight kitchen burnout.Second-generation ownership: Bringing new ideas to a family business and why his parents' openness made all the difference.The long game: His vision of a morning-to-night destination serving pastries, focaccia sandwiches and wood-fired pizza in the heart of West Sedona.

Snail Games USA Lead Engineer Patrick Abiney joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss Egofold's Non-Human Players (NHPs), an AI companion platform designed to create more dynamic, personalized, and social gaming experiences. Abiney explained that the AI-powered companions are built to perceive, understand, communicate, and actively play alongside human players. Unlike traditional scripted NPCs, NHPs are designed to learn gameplay, coordinate strategies, explore virtual worlds, and provide assistance or companionship when other players are unavailable. The platform combines real-time perception, reasoning, memory, and learning, allowing AI companions to observe games from the player's perspective before making decisions and interacting naturally within the game environment. A key objective for Egofold is to develop AI companions that can operate across multiple game genres, including strategy, shooter, and survival titles, rather than being limited to a single game. Management believes this cross-platform adaptability could create more engaging and personalized gaming experiences. AI Ranch is designed to create Non-Human Players, a new category of AI companions built for video games. Unlike traditional non-playable characters (NPCs) or scripted bots, NHPs™ are built to behave, learn, and adapt like real human teammates, becoming trusted and dynamic partner throughout a player's gaming journey. Abiney said AI companions have the potential to make games "more alive and more personal than ever before" by remembering previous adventures, adapting to individual play styles, offering guidance, and helping players build lasting in-game experiences. The technology could also improve accessibility by helping new players learn game mechanics, filling cooperative teams when human players are unavailable, and tailoring gameplay to different skill levels, with the goal of making games more welcoming and enjoyable for everyone. #proactiveinvestors #snail #nasdaq #snal #SnailInc #Gaming #VideoGames #ArtificialIntelligence #Gaming #AICompanions #GameDevelopment #Egofold #VideoGames #GameTech #Innovation #GamingNews

TikTok is changing skincare faster than the science can keep up. In this episode, we (Beate & Natascha, founders of Boutique Skin Envie) go through 15 of the biggest TikTok skincare trends right now: PDRN salmon DNA serums, beef tallow, slugging, glass skin, snail mucin, red light therapy, and more, and give our honest "take it or leave it" verdict on each one, backed by what we actually see in clinic. We also talk about how to spot dangerous skincare advice, why "who's giving the advice" matters more than the trend itself, and the boring (but actually effective) habits TikTok never talks about.

Send us Fan Mail"Those who sleep don't catch any fish." – Italian Proverb  Gerald the Duck is, without a doubt, the most magnificent duck in Snaggleton. He has cloud-white feathers, a polished orange beak, and a very dignified waddle. He is also, unfortunately, rather lazy! Lately, Gerald has decided that waking up early to hunt for delicious Sludge-Snails in the castle moat is far too "inconvenient". Because he loves his beauty sleep, Gerald starts waking up late—only to find that the other ducks have already eaten every single snack in the water! When Nolan the Gnome Knight warns him that "those who sleep don't catch any fish," Gerald simply sniffs and points out that he eats snails, not fish, completely missing the point! To teach him a lesson about effort, Nolan commands Gerald to fly him to Sparky Flarkbottom's workshop. There, Gerald watches the gnome inventor try to build an Auto-Rocking Hammock. Sparky spends the entire day failing. Instead of giving up, Sparky keeps adjusting her gears until she finally achieves success on Test Three. She shows Gerald her backyard—a mountain of junk filled with exploded boilers and half-melted robots. Sparky proudly calls them her "lessons," proving that you have to be awake to make mistakes, and you have to make mistakes to get the prize! In this kids story podcast episode, Gerald finally understands the metaphor. Watch as he braves the freezing dawn, swallows a bit of mud, and learns that breakfast tastes a whole lot better when you have to work for it! It's BKFK Book Month!

Our story tonight is called The Garden Center, or, The Left-Handed Snail, and it's a story about a quiet corner of the plant nursery where a slow moving community is coming together. It's also about push brooms and dropped leaves, shadows in the gloaming, and something rarer than a four leaf clover. Subscribe to our ⁠Premium channel⁠. The first month is on us.

Bringing an animal back from the brink of extinction is an amazing feat, but when it's an animal that doesn't usually feature among the most talked-about endangered species it's especially exciting for one kiwi scientist. James Joseph is a champion of the humble snail. The Norfolk Island snail to be exact. About six years ago, an island resident came across the Campbell's keeled glass-snail listed as extinct 20 years ago. A team of scientists gave the invertebrate a fighting chance and they're reporting some very unexpected but positive developments. James Joseph spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

Liz and Ben were once again fortunate to be guests of the Australian Discworld Convention – this time in Sydney! In this live recording from day two of Nullus Anxietas X: A Celebration of Witches, we discuss Rhianna Pratchett and Gabrielle Kent's 2023 book, Tiffany Aching's Guide to Being a Witch. (We previously interviewed Rhianna and Gabrielle about it in Pratchat74, “Hogswitch”.) Tiffany Aching has been a witch for some years now, and has been writing down what she's learned. When she gets the opportunity to publish her work, and hopefully inspire a new generation of witches, she sends the manuscript to her mentors to get their thoughts via notes in the margins. And a couple of uninvited guests give their opinions, too – on everything from proper headwear, to the relationships between witches, and the supernatural threats one is likely to face… Which new bits were your favourites from the book? What did you think Petunia's “pig trick” was when you first read about it in A Hat Full of Sky? Do you have a favourite witch, and why is it Nanny Ogg? (We won't tell Granny.) Are you a Dolly Sisters fan, or a Dimwell diehard? (The reason this is important will become apparent when you listen.) What do you wish we'd do on the podcast before we finish up with all the novels – or perhaps do next, when Pratchat is over? We’d love to know! Use the hashtag #PratchatNAX on social media to join the conversation, or email us at chat@pratchatpodcast.com (we do read them all, though we've been a bit slow to reply of late). Nullus Anxietas, the Australian Discworld Convention, has been running for nearly twenty years. The next convention will be in 2028 in Melbourne! You can find out more at the official convention website, ausdwcon.org. You can also follow Nullus Anxietas on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook. You can find the full show notes and errata for this episode on our web site. Huge thanks to everyone who attended the convention; our wonderful live audience, especially Danny, Helen and Jeremy; and especially offer enormous thanks to the “big jobs” – the team of hard-working volunteers and committee members who make Nullus Anxietas happen, especially Joanne, Steve, Danny and Kurt – but there were so many others. We hope to see you all in Melbourne for the next one. Want to help us get to the end of our six(ish) year mission and read every Pratchett book – and more? You can support us with a tip, or a subscription for as little as $2 a month, and that's cuttin' our own throats! See our Support Us page for details.

   Even MSNow hosts are seeing through Chuck Schumer and other dems that just can never, ever admit President Trump does good things.  Morning Joe got right up in Chuck's grill and set the record straight for him.    Election reform is in focus in many different ways right now and none of them seem to be doing anything but crawling slowly toward tiny gains.    The Royals are in Texas for a little last minute fun... and tune up for the regular season.  It was the fun part that sent the Royals on a sick ride.    Travis Kelce signs his new contract with the Chiefs on the same day the happy couple's honeymoon plans are revealed.  Wait until you hear the length and how many continents they will visit.    And California's billionaires want out of the Golden State so badly they'd rather live in a Hole.

In this episode, we consider a creature we often don't think much about—the snail. And not just snails, but their sex lives. Which, as it turns out, is epic. There is persuasion and subterfuge, spaghetti penises and co-copulation. And this very surprising habit—erm kink—of making tiny arrows (actually!) and stabbing each other with them. Known as a “love dart,” these limestone daggers aren't just a strange trick of nature—they have a deep evolutionary purpose.  Special thanks to Menno Schilthuizen and Aaron Chase.EPISODE CREDITS:  Hosted by - Molly Webster Reported by - Molly Webster Produced by - Mona Madgavkar, Annie McEwen, Molly Webster Sound design contributed by - Mona Madgavkar, Annie McEwen Fact-checking by - Diane A.

1151. This week, we look at the deep history of words with Doug Harper, creator of Etymonline. We look at the "gravitational" link between digging a grave and having a grave problem, the surprising 1839 origin of "OK," and why some of our favorite word stories are actually "folk etymologies" designed as jokes.Etymonline.comVisit our YouTube channel to see the video version of this episode. Links to Get One Month Free of the Grammar Girl Patreon (different links for different levels)Order of the Snail ($1/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/687E4Order of the Aardvark ($5/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/07205Keeper of the Commas ($10/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/50A0BGuardian of the Grammary ($25/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/949F7

1150. This week, we look at "impact" as a verb and why it's a pet peeve for so many editors and readers.

We talk with John Overholt, curator at Harvard's Houghton Library, about Johnson's eclectic career.

1148. This week, we look at penny idioms that are still "legal tender" in our language even as the U.S. penny is retired. We look at the history of phrases like "a bad penny" and "penny wise and pound foolish." Then, we look at the linguistic history of procrastination, explaining how human nature changed words like "soon," "anon," and "presently" from meaning "at once" to "in a little while."The penny segment was written by Karen Lunde, a longtime writer and editor turned web designer and marketing mentor.
