The transcripts from Jes Staley's July 24, 2026 interview with the House Oversight Committee revealed just how deep and personal his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein became, while also exposing contradictions in the way Staley had described that relationship publicly. Staley acknowledged visiting Epstein's Manhattan townhouse dozens of times, traveling to Little St. James on multiple occasions and exchanging roughly 1,200 communications with Epstein between 2008 and 2012. He admitted that he had shared confidential and potentially market-sensitive JPMorgan information with Epstein, including details about the bank's business, client relationships, pending transactions and even communications involving the Federal Reserve during the 2008 financial crisis. Staley also told investigators that he had discussed his own compensation with Epstein and sought his advice, despite previously portraying Epstein as having little or no connection to his professional life after the 2008 conviction. He further acknowledged having a sexual encounter with one of Epstein's assistants after meeting her through Epstein, while insisting that Epstein did not arrange it and that he had no knowledge that the woman had later accused Epstein of abuse.The committee also pressed Staley on some of the strangest and most troubling material in his correspondence with Epstein, including the notorious “Snow White” emails and other references to Disney characters. Staley denied having sex with a woman dressed as Snow White and said he could not explain the meaning of some of the messages, even when investigators confronted him with contemporaneous emails and photographs. He maintained that he did not know Epstein was continuing to abuse girls after his 2008 conviction, calling that revelation “incredible,” yet the transcripts also showed that Staley personally argued for JPMorgan to keep Epstein as a client even as internal concerns about Epstein's cash withdrawals and potential trafficking activity were mounting. Staley also said he had spoken with Jamie Dimon about Epstein, something Dimon and JPMorgan have disputed. Taken together, the testimony painted a picture of a relationship that was far closer, more intertwined with Staley's professional life and more difficult to reconcile with his earlier descriptions than he had previously acknowledged.to contact me:bobbycapuci@protonmail.com

Homeland Security says Milo Yiannopoulos entered the United States legally, missed an immigration hearing, received a final removal order, and was sent back to Britain. Austin traces the political provocateur's rise through Gamergate, Breitbart, and Berkeley, then asks Tennessee Star reporter Tom Pappert whether the fast removal was routine enforcement, political revenge, or both. The episode also examines Hollywood's expensive culture-war hangover, including Disney's Snow White losses and whether audiences—not studios—get the final vote.

Story of the Week (DR):Meta settles social media addiction case with California, other states for $16.7 billion MM5 Reasons to Be HappyAn $18 billion payout sets a historic legal precedent against Big Tech, directing billions in state funding toward youth mental health, counseling, and digital literacy programs.Instagram and Facebook must enforce default two-hour daily usage limits and completely block account activity between midnight and 6 a.m. for users under 18. Teens and parents gain the explicit right to disable addictive engagement algorithms in favor of a non-personalized, chronological feed.The settlement prohibits harmful beauty filters (such as cosmetic surgery simulators), hides "like" counts by default, and silences app notifications during school hours.Meta tied $5.3 billion of the payout to whether TikTok and YouTube adopt similar safety rules, forcing an industry-wide overhaul rather than penalizing just one app.5 Reasons to Be AngryPaid out over 10 years, the settlement amounts to roughly 10 days of Meta's annual profit, meaning Mark Zuckerberg's financial empire remains virtually unscathed.Meta's $17 billion child-safety settlement is the biggest tech payout ever—or 3x what it paid to acquihire a 28-year-old AI superstarTo put it in perspective, the $17.1 billion number is a little more than three times the roughly $5 billion personal stake that Alexandr Wang held in Scale AI, a data-labeling company that supplies the human-annotated training data AI models are built on. Last year, Meta paid $14.3 billion for a 49% stake in the company and brought in Wang to lead its AI efforts of its new Superintelligence Labs, reporting directly to Mark Zuckerberg.Meta legally denies all wrongdoing, dodging true legal accountability for intentionally engineering addictive, mentally harmful features.The agreement alters user interface features and screen time, but leaves Meta's underlying data-harvesting business model completely untouched.Critical safeguards—like switching off algorithmic feeds—are opt-in settings rather than permanent defaults, shifting enforcement onto parents.Meta only pays 70% ($12.7 billion) upfront; the remaining $5.3 billion is contingent on competitors settling on identical terms, giving Meta a potential financial discount if rivals refuse. Worst headline of the week: Meta's $17.1 billion settlement will be over 12-times larger than the second largest big tech privacy settlement in the past four yearsMeta's $18 billion settlement leaves out the child protections New Mexico already won at trial, its Attorney General says: including a direct ban on romantic and sexualized AI chatbot interactions with minors and stronger safeguards against adults targeting kids in private messagesMM: Settlement gapsAge assurance:Meta may elect to use one or more Proprietary Age Assurance Methods. In such event, Meta shall not benefit from the presumption of compliance set forth in Section II.A.3.a. Additionally, Meta will maintain continuous oversight of any Proprietary Age Assurance Method sufficient to ensure that the method is functioning as intended.Tax deductibleThe Settling States shall cause to be completed and timely filed a Form 1098-F with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that identifies not less than 50% of the amounts paid to the Settling States as compensatory restitution and remediation within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A)THEY BUNDLED CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA INTO THE SETTLEMENT$459m of the $17bn is the “Cambridge payout” - they can now put that behind them tooIs there a reason not to literally take Meta all the way? Why settle at all! Midterm elections? TAKE EVERYTHING! Meanwhile, while you settle this: Meta's creepy smart glasses are part of a much bigger plan“At the same time, Meta is using the content generated across its ecosystem to support Mark Zuckerberg's vision of a pervasive, AI-driven future. Zuckerberg's 2026 manifesto describes a world where personal AI agents will do your bidding. But building those systems requires more than conventional AI models. It also requires enormous amounts of data about human behavior, much of it generated and shared through Instagram, Facebook, and other Meta apps, or captured through hardware such as phones, smart glasses, and EMG Neural Band devices.”“We become “algorithm chow,” feeding the models intended to realize Zuckerberg's vision.”'We Know We Got This Wrong': Target Apologises and Pulls 'Offensive' Halloween Costume After Racist BacklashAn apology from us: We pulled an offensive Halloween costume that should never have been part of our assortment. It is no longer for sale. As a company, we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry. We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners. Removing the costume is an important first step, and the company is looking closely at how this happened and what needs to change to ensure this won't happen again.Target Statement on Offensive Halloween Costume: As a company, we know we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry. The costume is offensive and should never have been part of our assortment. It is no longer available for sale. We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners. Removing the costume is an important first step, and the company is looking closely at how this happened and what needs to change to ensure this won't happen again.The statement comes directly from Target's Corporate Communications department speaking on behalf of the entire enterprise, rather than a single individual like the CEO or Board Chair. Corporate apologies are deliberately released without a human signature for several strategic and legal reasons:Legal Personhood: Legally under U.S. law, Target Corporation is treated as a single legal entity (often called "corporate personhood"). It can sign contracts, hold liability, and issue official statements as an institution rather than as individual people.Leaving executive names off the statement prevents media coverage from focusing on a specific person (e.g., "CEO Brian Cornell Apologizes"). It keeps the focus on the company's operational changes and prevents individual leaders from becoming personal lightning rods for public backlash.These statements are rarely drafted by an executive. They are heavily scrubbed by legal counsel, crisis PR managers, and corporate strategy teams. Attaching a CEO's signature to a text engineered by a dozen lawyers and communications staff can actually feel less authentic internally.Phrasing the apology around "we" and "the company" establishes institutional accountability. It signals that the failure occurred in corporate vetting systems, not just from one bad decision-maker.In January 2025, Target Corporation announced the termination of its REACH initiative and restructuring of its Supplier Diversity program, marking one of the largest corporate DEI rollbacks in recent history. This decision has triggered public backlash, legal scrutiny, and investor uncertainty.Callaway Golf CEO apologizes after Good Good ad showing male golfer shoving woman sparks backlashCallaway Golf CEO Chip Brewer on Tuesday apologized for an advertisement that sparked an online backlash for its depiction of a male golfer shoving a female golfer to the ground when she attempts to use his driver."That approval should never have happened. Mistakes were made, and we are taking the matter very seriously," Brewer wrote on Tuesday. "I want to make it clear that we sincerely apologize for the video." Callaway released a statement Thursday explaining its reasoning behind ending the brand partnership: "Over the last several days, we have reflected deeply on the hurt and disappointment caused by the video we reposted. We heard from individuals who shared personal experiences related to violence against women, and their stories were powerful reminders that this issue touches the lives of far too many people. Unequivocally, violence against women is unacceptable and should never be trivialized, normalized, or used as entertainment.""In this instance, our content review process was not comprehensive enough …We have taken appropriate internal corrective actions and significantly strengthened our approval procedures to help ensure this does not happen again."The brand added that it would donate $1 million to organizations that aim to "prevent violence against women, provide resources to survivors, and advance education and awareness efforts."The online video ad, which was released online and has since been pulled, sparked criticism for depicting violence against women, while some consumers said they planned to stop buying products made by Callaway.Brewer said the ad, created by Good Good Golf, was released last week to promote a co-branded driver and had been approved by Callaway before the spot was posted online. The ad featured Good Good co-founder Garrett Clark telling Alexis Miestowski, a former Division I female golfer, in a menacing voice, "Do not touch my new driver," after he shoves her to the ground.Good Good is an American sports YouTube channel and company based in Frisco, Texas. Founded in 2020 by Garrett Clark, Stephen Castaneda, CEO Matt Kendrick, and Matt Scharff.Owner: Scoreboard ventures: co-founders Nahid Giga and Brian DickLead Investor: Creator Sports Capital — a firm co-founded by former YouTube executive Benjamin Grubbs and investment executive Brian Kabot.Good Good's CEO went nuclear on Callaway after the brand cut ties over an ad scandal"Interesting that @CallawayGolf asks us to make an ad then approves it then asks us to take the fall then drops us in a coordinated media blitz and covers it up by giving a million dollars away thinking everyone will be ok with it," Matt Kendrick wrote in a post on X.The ad fallout has had major repercussions for Good Good's business beyond the loss of its Callaway partnership. Dick's Sporting Goods yanked Good Good products from shelves, and the golf group pulled out as a title sponsor for a PGA Tour event in the fall. The reverberation has spread to the Golf Channel, which scrapped the upcoming season of its reality golf series "Big Break," whose grand prize was entry into the PGA Tour event that Good Good was supposed to have sponsored.FFA:14% have merit2 women!

Former Barclays chief Jes Staley told House Oversight Committee investigators that he had a sexual encounter with one of Jeffrey Epstein's assistants after meeting her through Epstein. Staley said he first met the unnamed woman at Epstein's Manhattan townhouse and that their conversations eventually became flirtatious. According to his testimony, the woman later invited him to her Upper East Side apartment sometime around 2009 or 2010, where they had what he described as a single consensual sexual encounter. Staley insisted Epstein had not arranged the meeting, claimed he never told Epstein about it and said he had no knowledge of Epstein directing women to have sex with his associates. Investigators also informed Staley that the woman had later sued Epstein alleging sexual abuse and reached a settlement with Epstein's estate, something Staley said he had not known. The questioning came amid congressional scrutiny of Staley's extraordinarily close relationship with Epstein, including roughly 1,200 communications exchanged between the two from 2008 through 2012 while Staley headed JPMorgan's Private Bank and Epstein remained a client.Investigators also confronted Staley with some of the more disturbing and suggestive correspondence contained in the released Epstein material. In July 2010, Staley had written to Epstein, “Say hi to Snow White,” prompting Epstein to ask what character Staley wanted next, to which Staley replied, “Beauty and the Beast.” Another message sent to Epstein around the same time referenced a woman in a Snow White costume having sex shortly after putting it on, and investigators showed Staley a photograph Epstein had circulated of a young woman dressed as the Disney character. Staley maintained that he did not remember seeing a woman dressed as Snow White at Epstein's residence, denied having sex with anyone wearing such a costume and said he did not recognize the woman in the photograph. His testimony therefore added another uncomfortable layer to the long-running scrutiny of his relationship with Epstein: Staley acknowledged becoming sexually involved with a woman he met inside Epstein's orbit while simultaneously denying that Epstein facilitated the encounter or that he understood what was happening to women around Epstein.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonnail.comsource:Ex-Barclays chief Jes Staley details his ‘intimate encounter' with Jeffrey Epstein's assistant to House investigatorsb

The brand new Minions movie is out, this one titled Minions and Monsters, as the Minions conjure up a little guy named Goomi. But before the yellow Minions ever made audiences laugh with jokes about séances, magic, and the occult, Hollywood had already spent nearly a century weaving witchcraft, paganism, ghosts, sorcery, and the supernatural into family entertainment. From Disney's first animated feature, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and its spell casting queen and enchanted potions to Lonesome Ghosts, Fantasia, The Sword in the Stone, The Black Cauldron, The Little Mermaid, Moana, and now the latest Minions movie, the occult has often been presented as humorous, harmless, or even heroic. How did witchcraft and occult themes become so normalized in children's entertainment? Is it simply innocent fantasy, or has generation after generation been conditioned to laugh at, celebrate, and embrace ideas that Scripture repeatedly warns believers to avoid? We'll trace the fascinating history from the earliest days of animation to today's biggest family blockbusters, looking at the recurring themes of magic, mediums, séances, pagan gods, ghosts, spells, and supernatural power, and we'll examine how these themes have not only evolved, but why filmmakers continue returning to them, and what the Bible says about distinguishing fantasy from reality.

Pucker up, people! The Comeback Era truly begins as film journalist Ben Travis and animation academic Sam Summers venture to the Bayou in 2009's The Princess And The Frog. And they're not alone, joined by special guest Kelechi Ehenulo to talk Disney's brief return to 2D animation, its intentional evocation (and interrogation) of classic fairytale movie tropes, and the impact of the studio's first Black princess. Plus, they dig into the absolutely stacked jazz-influenced soundtrack, the 1920s-influenced animation style of Almost There, the delicious legacy of Tiana's beignets, the history of frog-kissing in folk stories, and why it's a bit like Widows and Sinners.

Jay Dyer, Owen Benjamin, Eastern Orthodoxy, alien disclosure, MKUltra symbolism, and Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day collide in this episode of Neph 2 America. David Lee Corbo, Top Lobsta, Matthew from Straight Bible, and Nancy deliver uncensored cultural commentary, comedy, conspiracy analysis, and Biblical discussion through a Christian worldview.The conversation begins with the proposed Jay Dyer vs. Owen Benjamin debate and the events that allegedly caused it to collapse. The hosts examine their previous interactions with Jay Dyer, Owen Benjamin's controversial Orthodox-themed artwork, accusations of blasphemy, the proposed Trinity debate, and the internet culture surrounding Christian apologetics. They also question Eastern Orthodox claims about salvation, church authority, icons, tradition, debate culture, and whether Christians should be known primarily by arguments or by how they live.The discussion expands into Timothy Alberino's appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience and the responsibility Christian researchers have to proclaim the gospel when given access to major platforms. The hosts ask whether talking about supernatural phenomena is enough when Jesus Christ and the message of salvation remain secondary.The second half features an extensive Disclosure Day review and Biblical breakdown. The hosts explore possible MKUltra and Project Monarch symbolism, butterfly imagery, psychic abilities, childhood trauma, intelligence agencies, the year 1947, Catholic involvement in alien disclosure, red cardinal symbolism, and the Alfa Romeo serpent logo. Revelation 12:4 is examined in connection with the dragon waiting to devour the child.The episode also analyzes regressive hypnosis, alien-abduction trauma, sleep paralysis, Disney and Snow White imagery, demonic oppression, starseeds, indigo children, Gnostic teachings, and attempts to portray alien entities as humanity's benevolent saviors. Job 4:12–17 is compared with modern reports of terrifying spiritual encounters, while Zechariah 11:17 appears during a discussion of the so-called Black Eye Club.The show closes with Super Chats, Messages From Mom, AI data centers, surveillance fears, strange food-technology claims, and the usual audience-driven chaos.What do you think caused the Jay Dyer and Owen Benjamin debate to collapse? Does Disclosure Day prepare audiences for alien disclosure, spiritual deception, or both?

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing MIRROR MIRROR (2012), from director Tarsem Singh's fantasy adventure from a screen story by Melisa Wallack and screenplay credits to Marc Klein and Jason Keller. A vain and ruthless evil queen (Julia Roberts) rules over a once-prosperous kingdom, keeping her beautiful stepdaughter, Snow White (Lily Collins), locked away in the palace while bleeding the citizenry dry with exorbitant taxes. When Snow White finally escapes into the enchanted forest and crosses paths with a band of resourceful, highway-robbing outlaws—referred to locally as dwarfs—she learns to fight back and begins rallying the oppressed kingdom to reclaim her birthright. As the queen attempts to secure her power and win the affections of a visiting prince (Armie Hammer) through dark magic and deception, Snow White must lead her newfound companions to overthrow the tyranny and restore light to the land. The film clocks in at 1 h 46 m, is rated R and is currently streaming and to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#MirrorMirror #TarsemSingh #Melisawallack #marcKlein #JasonKeller #JuliaRoberts #TheQueen #LilyCollins #SnowWhite #ArmieHammer #PrinceAlcott #NathanLane #Brighton #JordanPrentice #Napoleon #MarkPovinelli #HalfPint #JoeGnoffo #Grub #DannyWoodburn #Grimm #SebastianSaraceno #Wolf #MartinKlebba #Butcher #RonaldLeeClark #Chuckles #RobertEmms #Renbock #MareWinningham #BakerMargaret #MichaelLerner #Baron #SeanBean #King #FairyTale #SwordAndSorcery #Comedy #Family #Adventure #Drama #Fantasy @PrimeVideo #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Former Barclays chief Jes Staley told the House Oversight Committee that he was unsure whether Jeffrey Epstein had introduced him to a woman dressed as Snow White, despite emails showing Staley referencing the Disney character. In a July 2010 exchange, Staley told Epstein to “say hi to Snow White” and, when Epstein asked which character he wanted next, replied, “Beauty and the Beast.” Staley reportedly maintained during the closed-door interview that he did not know what those messages referred to, while acknowledging that he had a consensual sexual relationship with one of Epstein's assistants at an Epstein-linked apartment in New York.Staley also told the committee that he visited Epstein while Epstein was serving his Florida jail sentence following his 2008 conviction and that he saw Epstein regularly withdraw large amounts of cash from his JPMorgan accounts. Committee Chairman James Comer said internal discussions at JPMorgan showed concern that Epstein was a high-risk client, but Staley continued defending him. Staley claimed he ended contact with Epstein after becoming Barclays CEO in 2015, though his relationship with Epstein later triggered regulatory scrutiny, contributed to his 2021 resignation and resulted in him being banned from senior financial-management roles in Britain.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ex-Barclays chief Jes Staley tells House panel he's 'unsure' he met woman in a Snow White costume through Jeffrey Epstein: source

That's how it starts. The fever. The rage. The feeling of powerlessness. That turns good fans … toxic. How does this toxification happen? Or does it happen? Maybe it's all the fault of big corporations. Or social media. Or foreign adversaries poisoning the discourse. In either case, we need discernment to sort honest criticism from harshest cynicism. Episode sponsors Enclave Publishing: Worlds Collide by Clint Hall Above the Circle of Earth (softcover) by E. Stephen Burnett Iffy Eats Monsters for Breakfast by Bryan Timothy Mitchell Lorehaven Guild: July 2026 book quest for The Silver Chair Mission update New at Lorehaven, Daniel Whyte IV's Onscreen article: Supergirl Strives to Be Good, but Struggles to Save a Disempowered Movie. Reviews are currently on hiatus, but we have over 380 of those! Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild. Critics are writing off famous fantasies, and we concede their demise. We also believe in an Author who surprises us with epic resurrection. Listen to episode 307. 1. They don't—some of this is legit criticism. Quick snack from the Concession Stand. We've talked about this. Big corporations selling bad storytelling have blamed “toxic fans.” Disney tried this against fans who disliked Star Wars TV shows. They maybe learned their lesson and didn't try it with Snow White. And even the current DC regime didn't do that much with Supergirl. In this case, studios may be driven to these scripts by leftist media. In fact, look for some media pundits to do this against Andy Serkis. But the fans may just be saying, “That's not for me.” Loudly. Often the fans have legitimate reasons for loudly rejecting stories. Stephen feels this way about previous and current DC hero movies. But in the past, the studio lied to DC fans and called them “toxic.” Even some false criticisms have some truth mixed into them. Fans claimed an actor called “Elliot Page” was playing Achilles. It turned out she wasn't; she played another soldier character. But this is still a gender-bend. And that character replaces Achilles. So what angry fans told you was true, from a certain point of view. In either case, this isn't “toxic.” That label implies a kind of sin. One may spy the familiar hues of the old fundamentalist legalism. But if you can't call something sin, don't manipulatively imply it is. Sin is binary. Actions are motivated by idolatry or by faithfulness. And anything that isn't an actual sin is just creative differences. 2. Fans may see actual folly, but overreact. Nevertheless, some fans have too much fun booing the screen. This is best illustrated by the infamous “Cinema Sins” channel. Its maker monetizes constant, often foolish movie nitpicking. This impulse, when it catches, ruins otherwise good franchises. Most recently, some anti-fans did want Christopher Nolan to fail. They did spread lies about Odyssey casting as if these were fact. Meanwhile, sociopolitical agitators slander Greta Gerwig's Narnia. They claimed as fact “Meryl Streep is playing Aslan.” Unconfirmed. Frankly, Stephen believes this could be Netflix's rope-a-dope tactic. If/when we hear Ciarán Hinds voices Aslan, the goals get moved. Fans may then easily forgive “race-swapping” or era-changing. We'd miss the real crime: ignoring Lewis's original 1900s setting! So don't get played either by studio false-flag ops or the agitators. Yet a few YouTubers, known for criticism, can be more balanced. Behind their loud clickbaity titles and aggression is an earnest side. Example: Gary Buechler says he earns just as much from positivity. In fact, his whole TV interview (even on Piers Morgan) is healthier. Stephen enjoys these YouTube roasts, but also these critics’ praise. For example, it's been a pleasure to see Buechler loving One Piece. 3. Later they become lost in sinful cynicism. We do need legitimate or balanced criticism, shared reluctantly. Alas, some of these voices do take over factions of our culture. This is the hateful, spiteful, deconstructive impulse from actual sin. We see this in many political movements that despise creativity. Often they are spreading lies and subversion more than big studios. One could conclude these “critics” aren't even happy being critical. And we see this from certain Christians who have axes to grind. Zack and Stephen see some voices only cursing cultural darkness. They are selling negativity and/or implied solutions (they made up). But at least the faulted corporations did try making new things! We're back to the adage, “Don't curse the darkness; light a candle.” Christianity gives no moral clearance for “professional cynics.” Our worldview is eternally positive. No matter the evils we see. And even non-Christian humanists ought to catch biblical optimism. Com station Top question for listeners Have you ever been accused of being a “toxic fan”? Next on Fantastical Truth Everyone's talking about that new release from Christopher Nolan, the feature film that is just so big that it's one everyone oughtta see. Zack plans to see it. Stephen may eventually get there. Meanwhile, what about that book by Greek poet Homer that changed the course of our world's epic storytelling? Dramatist and author Phil Lollar—no stranger to that name!— will return to the studio for our tour of The Odyssey.
Was there ever an official Disneyland postmark? That's one of the questions I get asked most often, and in this episode I dive into the history behind Disneyland mail, unique ZIP code 92803, pictorial cancels, cachets, and whether mail was ever officially postmarked "Disneyland, CA." We begin with two 1985 postcards celebrating Disneyland's 30th Anniversary. The first features Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs welcoming guests to New Fantasyland and bears the special EXPO '85 Anaheim pictorial cancel honoring 30 years of Disneyland magic. The second, mailed on Disneyland's official 30th birthday—July 17, 1985—shows Mickey Mouse leading the Disneyland Band down Main Street, U.S.A. Together they set the stage for a deep dive into one of Disneyland's most enduring postal mysteries. Along the way I explain the differences between postmarks, cancels, and cachets, examine special Disneyland-related postal markings from my collection, discuss why ZIP Code 92803 is unique, and share what years of collecting and research have revealed about whether Disneyland ever maintained its own official postal cancellation.

For our penultimate episode of the Red Fairy Book, we have a triple bill of rather different stories.First, we have one of the best known fairy tales out there - Snowdrop, otherwise known as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It's got some excellent moments, though things get a little out of hand closer to the end!We follow that up with another Grimm tale, The Golden Goose, an example of the 'All Stick Together' tale type from the ATU Index. Follow an unlikely hero called Dullhead, his magical little grey friend, and a very sticky goose...The last in the trio is a Norwegian tale, The Seven Foals (but don't worry, they don't meet the same fate as those in Dapplegrim!) With a sadistic king, an enticing hairdressing hag and a surprisingly Christian message, it's a bit of an odd one!As ever, we discuss, compare and rate the stories afterwards! We hope that you enjoy the episode, and we will speak to you again on Saturday, when Eleanor is interviewing the Fairy Whisperer herself, Karen Kay!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, 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.

Christopher Nolan's Odyssey hasn't even come out yet and it's already the most disliked Hollywood trailer since Snow White. Bridget breaks down the casting controversy, why Elon rage-tweeting about a movie he hasn't seen is just as annoying as woke casting, and why the script is a downstream effect the collapsing literacy rates of our youth. #TheOdyssey #ChristopherNolan #DumpsterFire #elonmusk #bridgetphetasy Topics covered: Christopher Nolan Odyssey movie, Odyssey woke casting, Lupita Nyong'o Helen of Troy, Elliot Page Odyssey, Elon Musk Odyssey, Oscar DEI rules, literacy decline, race swap fatigue, Hollywood culture war, DEI Hollywood
The latest trailer for Nolan's The Odyssey is racking up records... bad ones. Yes, it's been disliked as much as Snow White. Now, will it tank at the box office? It's a Nolan movie, so probably not.

Jim Hill and Drew Taylor take a Fourth of July detour on Fine Tooning for a deep dive into the first 50 years of Disney animation directors. With Ron Clements' memoir now pushed to October and The Great Mouse Detective celebrating its 40th anniversary, Jim and Drew trace how Disney's animated features evolved from Walt's hands-on oversight to the rise of the CalArts generation. Along the way, they revisit Snow White, Dumbo, Cinderella, The Jungle Book, The Rescuers, The Black Cauldron, and the film that helped set the stage for Disney animation's next era. HIGHLIGHTS • Ron Clements' long-awaited memoir, Making Disney Magic, gets another release-date delay. • The Great Mouse Detective turns 40, giving Jim and Drew the perfect excuse to revisit Disney animation's directing history. • Walt Disney's role in shaping Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, and Bambi gets a fresh look. • The wartime package films reveal how Disney kept animation alive during a difficult stretch for the studio. • The conversation follows the handoff from veteran Disney directors to the CalArts generation that changed feature animation. FEATURE • How early Disney animated features used supervising directors, sequence directors, and Walt's final creative say. • Why Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, and Sleeping Beauty marked a major postwar rebuilding period. • How Wolfgang Reitherman's run helped define the studio's animated output after Walt's death. • Why The Rescuers, The Fox and the Hound, The Black Cauldron, and The Great Mouse Detective became turning points for the next generation of Disney storytellers.

No Film School's Jo Light records live from Aspen Shorts Fest with Julia Aks and Steve Pinder, the co-writers and co-directors of Jane Austen's Period Drama. The conversation covers how the short grew from a period-drama pun into an Oscar-nominated comedy, what it took to produce an ambitious period piece on a limited budget, and how the filmmakers navigated festivals, awards qualification, campaign strategy, and the career momentum that followed. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins, Jo Light, and guests Julia Aks and Steve Pinder discuss... How Julia Aks and Steve Pinder first met through a USC student film and developed their creative partnership Turning a comedic pun into a short film with emotional depth and a clear central event Why successful short films often focus on a small moment instead of compressing a feature-sized story Budgeting the short, finding the right producer, and learning where production money shows up on screen Calling in community favors for period costumes, crew, and production support Working with Snow White the chicken and planning animal scenes safely Balancing Julia's roles as actor, co-writer, co-director, and editor Building a festival strategy after early rejections and learning the importance of premiere status Why Aspen Shorts Fest became a key Oscar-qualifying opportunity for the film How live festival screenings shaped the filmmakers' understanding of the comedy Handling polarizing reviews and why strong reactions can signal that a film took risks What happens after winning a qualifying award, from the long list to the short list to nomination The cost, strategy, and labor behind an Oscar campaign for a short film How Emma Thompson became the film's “Executive Menstrual Advisor” Why live screenings became central to their campaign strategy The career impact of receiving an Oscar nomination, even without winning Developing the feature version of Jane Austen's Period Drama and future musical comedy ideas Memorable Quotes: “When short films are very successful, I think they take a small moment or they take a small piece of humanity or a small observation about life, and then really maximize and explore that small thing.” “We never wanted to make a proof of concept that didn't stand on its own. We wanted to make a short film that was a short film.” “Everything makes sense, and also nothing makes sense.” “Be bold, be brave, make a zero or a 10. Don't make a five.” Guests: Julia Aks Steve Pinder Resources: Jane Austen's Period Drama Jane Austen's Period Drama on IMDb Aspen Shortsfest Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram

Today I sat down with Brad Williams — a stand-up comic that even Robin Williams loved.In this episode, Brad opens up about what really happens behind the scenes at Disney, tells the wild, untold story behind his run-in with John Stamos, and shares stories about Carlos Mencia and Robin Williams that shaped his career. We also get into stand-up comedy, marriage, raising a daughter as a little person, and so much more. This is one of the best, most honest conversations we've had on the show. Sit back and join us.
Come hear the tale of Mortimer's cousin Cynthia, and the fantastic, miner-village story she knows about a lady named Snow White.
Well, in this episode of “Tops and Bottoms,” we move from the Top grossing film of 1959 to . . . well, the bottom grossing film. Hoo boy, this is gonna be painful. What's it going to be? Some late-career Ed Wood movie? Ooo, are we going to get another entry from the Cor-man? There are so many of his we still haven't endured, I mean, seen! Heh, I bet it's some teen movie or cheap science fiction dreck. Let's check the Max-O-Tron 9000000 . . . oh . . . huh. “Sleeping Beauty.” Ok, sure this must be some sort of knockoff from some cheesy Latvian or Upper Voltan animation studio, right? Sort of thing they used to sell on the streets of Times Square? Ok, so who produced this . . . wait . . . Walt Disney? Not Wahllte Dizney? Or Wal Tdisney? It was, you know, Disney Disney? Uh . . . wow . . . so, “Snow White,” “Cinderella” . . . that Disney. How . . . what . . . when . . . plankton . . . uh, give a listen, ok? We gotta work on this for a while.

Neither of us is actually in Old Town today — but as Brady put it, we're there in spirit. On this Friends of Old Town edition of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael catches up with Brady Cloven (Executive Director, Friends of Old Town Winchester) via Zoom while he's at a tourism conference in Pennsylvania, pitching bus tours on coming to Winchester. The conversation is released just minutes before Brady cuts the ribbon on the South End Literacy Mural at the splash pad — the year-long project with United Way, the John and Janice Wyatt Foundation, and the Winchester Campaign for Grade-Level Reading that's already doing what it was designed to do (drawing kids and parents to a previously quiet end of the walking mall). Brady walks through Friends of Old Town's recent three-award sweep from Virginia Main Street — including milestone recognition for crossing 40,000 volunteer hours (about $1 million in volunteered time) and 10,000+ building projects across 40 years — plus the upcoming Friends of Old Town public art initiative at Taylor Pavilion (37 artist applications, narrowed to a top six). Then it's a full preview of the July 4th VA250 Downtown Jubilee — 12-to-10 PM with Made in Virginia vendors, two live music acts at Taylor Pavilion, the reading of the Declaration of Independence, a Cheerwine relay chug, a Snow White slider eating contest, and a laser-light show to close out the night. Plus details on the August 22 Dog Days of Summer Hot Dog Crawl, a teaser for the Monty Python pub crawl on July 17, and a friendly reminder that the parrot in the mural is wearing a pirate hat for a reason — though Janet is more than willing to take credit on Brady's behalf.

The Walt Disney Company is the most successful enterprise ever created for monetizing human nostalgia. Today it's the king of global entertainment, holding the intellectual property rights to the childhood memories of billions of people (including, likely, all of you) and is a reliable, predictable profitable business. But it didn't start that way.During Walt's era, Disney operated like an unhinged moonshot factory, blowing its finances on one seemingly crazy project after another, like the very first feature-length animated film or a theme park inspired by Walt's fascination with model trains (spoiler: Disneyland). Walt's relentless ambition to bet the company over and over again not only created some of the most monumental artistic achievements of the 20th century (Snow White, Fantasia, Disney Imagineering), but also resulted in the accidental invention of the modern “flywheel” business model. In this episode, we tell the story of the ultimate marriage of art, commerce, and engineering — The Walt Disney Company: Walt's Era.Sponsors:Many thanks to our fantastic Spring '26 Season partners:J.P.

Loretta Chefchaouni's debut The Lustrous Dark (Peachtree Teen, 2026) follows protagonist Shay.Orphaned as a baby, Shay has spent her life training as the midwife's apprentice. Her role grants her stability, yet Shay has always yearned for more. Namely, motherly affection and answers regarding her mysterious birth—neither of which the midwife deems practical to provide.After Shay discovers her birth mother, Hind, is still alive and addicted to a magical drug called Snow, she determines to get the woman clean. But when Hind betrays Shay to get her hands on more Snow, Shay's abandoned within a deadly forest and forced to rely on a band of monstrous ghouls for safety.Shay's realm has long stood on the brink of war between the men who control magic and the revolutionaries who want to eliminate it. But in the forest, Shay hears the pleading call of ancient spirits who claim that not only has magic been stolen, but Shay has the power to return it. With the help of a spitfire revolutionary and the boy who's winning over her heart, Shay discovers the horrific truth of who produces Snow and will have to decide for herself whether to heed the spirits' charge or fade into obscurity. This emotionally raw and gorgeously rendered fairy tale combines the lush worldbuilding of This Woven Kingdom with the mother trauma of Snow White and a dash of Tim Burton. Steeped in mysticism and mythology, The Lustrous Dark confronts injustices against women with a righteous scream that'll inspire readers to rally against the patriarchy and oppressive regimes worldwide.

Matt takes on the biggest mainstream myths and left-wing shibboleths about the settling of the American West.
