Something Wicked this way comes. Rob and Greg hang with Wicked!
Something wicked is coming to the Petersphere... This weekend on Shine Radio, I've been chatting to Beccy Hope-Palmer, director of Macbeth at the Petersfield Shakespeare Festival, to find out what audiences can expect from this year's production. There's a Scottish take on Shakespeare's Scottish play, a spectacular open-air setting, and plenty more besides... I'll also be catching up with Lucy from the festival, who has one final invitation to see The Shakespeare Review, which takes its last bow tonight. Tune in across the weekend for the interviews - and if you're planning a visit to the festival, they might just whet your appetite without giving too much away!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does it really mean to be a woman in today's world? In this conversation with Dr. Carrie Gress, we explore how modern culture has shaped the way women see themselves—and why so many women feel exhausted, disconnected, and unfulfilled despite achieving everything they were told would make them happy. We unpack what it means to reclaim authentic femininity—not through stereotypes or rigid roles, but by rediscovering the unique gifts God created women to bring into every relationship, workplace, and season of life. In this episode, you'll discover: Why so many women feel disconnected from their true identity How modern culture has distorted our understanding of femininity What spiritual motherhood looks like, even if you're single How to become a life-giving presence wherever God has placed you Practical steps to begin reclaiming the woman God created you to be Whether you're single, dating, married, or discerning your vocation, this conversation offers a hopeful vision of womanhood rooted in truth, freedom, and lasting joy.

The Gonzaga men continue to hold the line in the WCC despite the absence of their champion centers, Graham Ike and Braden Huff. It's been especially difficult considering their jump shots have abandoned them entirely. It is about to get even tougher, because the hated Gaels of Saint Mary's are coming to town, and baby, they mean business. We'll spend some time letting the hate flow through us before providing some things to watch out for on Saturday. If you want to skip ahead to the Saint Mary's Preview, it starts at about 45 minutes in. I know! That's too long, which is why I'm letting you know now.

1/29/26 - Jim sits down with author, philosopher, and scholar Dr. Carrie Gress to unpack her book Something Wicked: Why Feminism Can't Be Fused with Christianity from Sophia Institute Press, examining why modern feminist ideology—despite often appealing language about equality and empowerment—ultimately conflicts with the Christian understanding of the human person, vocation, marriage, and family. Drawing from history, philosophy, theology, and cultural analysis, Dr. Gress traces the roots of feminism, explaining how it reshaped ideas of womanhood, motherhood, sexuality, and power, and reveals why attempts to create a “Catholic feminism” fall short by substituting autonomy and resentment for truth, sacrifice, and love. The conversation also explores how feminist assumptions have quietly influenced Church life, education, and pastoral practice, why the ideology has become so persuasive even among believers, and how Catholics can respond with clarity and charity while remaining faithful to authentic Church teaching on dignity, equality, and true freedom. Dr. Gress challenges viewers to think critically about the cultural narratives shaping society today and invites them to rediscover the beauty and coherence of the Catholic vision for men and women rooted in Christ and ordered toward genuine human flourishing.

Slashers Podcast officially kicks off 2026 with a wickedly fun new theme, Novel January, our month-long celebration of horror films born from the pages of terrifying books. And we're starting strong with clowns, curses, and a dark carnival straight out of your childhood nightmares.In this episode, Mikey, Ade, and Lance sit down with horror author Joe Benner (who may or may not secretly be his own sinister creation, Jesper the Clown) to talk about his chilling new novel Klaun. We dive into the twisted inspiration behind the story, the blurred lines between creator and character, and what makes killer clowns such an enduring nightmare fuel icon.Then, the Slashers crew rewinds to the 1980s to review Disney's surprisingly dark cult classic Something Wicked This Way Comes. A sinister tale of a cursed carnival, stolen youth, and the creeping realization that growing up is its own kind of horror. We unpack its eerie atmosphere, unforgettable villain, and why this literary adaptation may not vibe well with some viewers...
There's an unhinged consensus that patriarchy is a problem, it's bad, and it needs to be dismantled. That's one of the core tenets of the new, secular world order and "morality". It's totally false, but it's been spurred onward over the past 100 years by feminism, which has also become a consensus. We're so steeped in it that seemingly everyone has assumed feminist tendencies and beliefs, just due to the waters in which we swim, culturally. Jeremy is joined by Dr. Carrie Gress today to talk about feminism, gender, abortion, and why all of this is a slow but steady under-the-radar revolution in an attempt to destroy America and Christianity. This conversation is VITAL to understand if you don't want to be polluted by the world.

Happy Halloween! On this week's special spooky episode, Jeff welcomes Julia back to the show to discuss a few frightningly fun topics, starting with Jeff's review of Disneyland's new Happiest Haunts Tour ("The Villains' Trail"), and we look at the new features for this year and compare it with tours in years past. Then, we discuss Ray Bradbury and his relationship with both Walt Disney and the Disney Company, including a closer look at The Halloween Tree, his book that inspired the Halloween Tree in Frontierland. We also dive into "Something Wicked This Way Comes," Bradbury's cult-ish film produced by Walt Disney Productions in 1983 and we look at its inspiration, the story of its production, its genre (horror? Dark fantasy?), and its place in horror story culture. Finally, we give a quick review of Tron: Ares, while wishing it was doing better at the box office.
Kate, Leah, and Melissa preview what fresh hell SCOTUS has in store for us this term, including challenges to the Fourteenth Amendment and the Court's continued obsession with fighting the culture wars. Then, after breaking down the latest legal news, the hosts welcome Lieutenant Governor of Illinois–and Senate candidate–Juliana Stratton to discuss Trump's plan to deploy the National Guard to Chicago, how state and local governments can push back against this administration, and what gives her hope in this fight. Finally, a game to commemorate Chief Justice Roberts' 20 long years on the Court. This episode was recorded live at the Athenaeum Center in Chicago.Favorite things:Leah: Bone Valley: A True Story of Injustice and Redemption in the Heart of Florida, Gilbert King; Without Precedent: How Chief Justice Roberts and His Accomplices Rewrote the Constitution and Dismantled Our Rights, Lisa Graves; One Battle After Another; The Life of a Showgirl, Taylor SwiftKate: WBEZ Chicago; Block Club Chicago; Chicago Reader; The Chicago Sun-Times on Broadview; Heart the Lover, Lily KingMelissa: Ta-Nehisi Coates and Ezra Klein Hash Out Their Charlie Kirk Disagreement; Tony Shalhoub's Breaking Bread (CNN); Mexodus (Audible's Minett a Lane Theater); Meghan Markle in Balenciaga Learn more: http://crooked.com/eventsOrder your copy of Leah's book, Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad VibesGet tickets to CROOKED CON November 6-7 in Washington, D.C at http://crookedcon.comFollow us on Instagram, Threads, and Bluesky Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
