This week, we revisit one of the more psychologically charged chapters of Lost, “The Other Woman,”an episode that pulls back the curtain on Juliet Burke's complicated past among the Others. Through flashbacks, we see her uneasy relationship with Ben Linus, whose manipulative affection curdles into something far more possessive and dangerous. The episode reframes Juliet's isolation on the island—not just as survival, but as emotional imprisonment.On the island in the present timeline, tensions mount as Juliet and Jack track Charlotte and Daniel to the Tempest station, uncovering a high-stakes threat involving toxic gas. What unfolds is less about action and more about trust: Who is lying? Who is protecting whom? And can Juliet ever truly escape Ben's shadow?We discuss how the episode deepens the moral ambiguity of the Others, strengthens Juliet's arc as one of the show's most quietly resilient characters, and continues Season 4's accelerating shift toward confrontation between the survivors and the freighter team. It's a character study wrapped in a ticking-clock thriller—and a reminder that on Lost, the most dangerous weapon is emotional leverage.From the humid paranoia of a mysterious island, we pivot to the suffocating tension of urban Brazil in The Secret Agent, directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho and starring Wagner Moura—a film that has been nominated for several Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Actor for Wagner Moura, International Film for Brazil and Best Casting. If Lost explores control through personal manipulation, The Secret Agent scales that tension to the political and institutional. Moura delivers a magnetic performance as a man caught between ideology and survival, navigating a system built on surveillance and quiet coercion. Mendonça Filho directs with clinical patience, letting scenes breathe just long enough for discomfort to set in.The film thrives on atmosphere—its framing tight, its sound design oppressive, its moral universe murky. Moura's performance anchors the narrative with restrained intensity; he conveys paranoia not through grand gestures, but through stillness. Every glance feels monitored. Every silence feels weaponized.In our review, we unpack how the film interrogates state power and personal complicity, why its pacing may divide audiences, and how its craftsmanship—particularly in editing and cinematography—justifies its Academy recognition. We also explore the fascinating connective tissue between the episode of Lost and The Secret Agent: both center on characters trapped inside systems that demand loyalty while eroding autonomy. It's a conversation about control—romantic, political, psychological—and about what it means to resist when resistance itself may already be anticipated.Tune in as we move from the island to the surveillance state, from Ben Linus to bureaucratic menace, and from network television intrigue to Oscar-nominated cinema. And be sure to keep coming back every week for more reviews and most Lost discussion, only on the #talkintvpodcast

We unpack the latest J.D. Power quality survey and its surprises, including Lexus leading and Toyota slipping, and detail two engine recalls affecting 2023–2025 Nissan Rogues. Mike and Jeremy give a fun review of the 2026 Toyota Corolla XSE sedan, answer listener questions about restoring a 1970 Tempest, and share practical car-care tips. Plus an interview about the upcoming Pate Swap Meet, insight on a wave of EVs coming off lease and where buyers can find strong deals on used electric cars.

The crew follows up on their earlier discussion about their thoughts on the first season of Starfleet Academy.

This week we're wandering into the mist and madness of the Yorkshire moors for Emerald Fennell's 2026 reimagining of Wuthering Heights! We'll discuss the electric, obsessive chemistry between Margot Robbie's Catherine and Jacob Elordi's Heathcliff, and how this version leans into the wild, untamed, and frankly toxic nature of Brontë's original text. We'll talk about the haunting gothic aesthetic, the cycles of revenge, and whether any soul can truly survive the Heights.To capture the stormy romance and the rugged landscape, we're mixing up a drink that's as turbulent as a Yorkshire gale: Moores Tempest. This cocktail is a beautiful balance of wild sweetness and earthy aromatics, much like the characters themselves.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merch Shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.drinkthemovies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*Please Drink Responsibly*

In Black Shakespeare: Reading and Misreading Race (Cambridge University Press, 2022), Ian Smith urges readers of Othello, The Merchant of Venice, and Hamlet to develop “racial literacy.” Through both wide social influences and specific professional pressures, Shakespearean critics have been taught to ignore, suppress, and explain away the racial thinking of the plays, a set of evasion strategies that inevitably have political and social ramifications in the contemporary United States. As Ian writes in the introduction, Black Shakespeare is intended to “shift the focus to conditions that shape readers, inform their epistemologies, and influence their reading practices” (3). Today's guest is Ian Smith, Professor of English at the University of Southern California. Ian is the author of the previous monograph, Race and Rhetoric in the Renaissance: Barbarian Errors (Palgrave, 2009), as well as one of the most important articles in early modern literary criticism of the last twenty years, “Othello's Black Handkerchief.” Ian is the current President of the Shakespeare Association of America. John Yargo is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His specializations are early modern literature, the environmental humanities, and critical race studies. His dissertation explores early modern representations of environmental catastrophe, including William Shakespeare's The Tempest, Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, and John Milton's Paradise Lost. He has published in Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, and Shakespeare Studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's rare, it's controversial, and it completes the Jaguar picture.  Atari's JaguarCD peripheral saw limited release after numerous delays, but was packed with a remarkable audio visualization feature called the Virtual Light Machine, and bundled with a non-trivial percentage of the Jaguar's total commercial CD library. In this episode, we dig through the development timeline both for the hardware itself as well as the Virtual Light Machine, go into perhaps a bit too much detail regarding the 81 VLM effects, marvel at Edge Magazine's JaguarCD coverage, talk about the Tempest 2000 Soundtrack CD also included in the box, and cover the separate-but-necessary MemoryTrack cartridge and it lofty ambitions for game data storage. Also included is feedback from Troff, Graymane Shadow, Editorb, and Aritheus! All that plus Storytime can be found in this slow-loading installment of the Atari Jaguar Game by Game Podcast.

Join me as I review The Dragon Isles by Stephen D. Sullivan live! Share your thoughts on this fourth novel in the Dragonlance Crossroads series, released by Wizards of the Coast on December 1, 2002. You can buy a copy here: https://amzn.to/4k9Vsow  https://youtube.com/live/G7_6TTEypEQ About The Dragon Isles The Dragon Isles: abandoned home of the good dragons, land of amazing adventure and legendary treasure. The trouble is, no one knows how to get there. Now Mikal Vardan and his crew have found the hidden route, but they're not the only ones interested in the isles. A beautiful sea elf scavenger thinks the wealth of a lost civilization might be worth killing for, and a menacing sea dragon is determined to bring a reign of terror to the peaceful archipelago. Review Part one of this novel deals with Lady Karista Meinor and her bodyguard Bok hiring a ship to take them to the Dragon Isles where they want to open a trade route. They are using an old poem that is thought to be a prophecy about how to find the mysterious dragon isles. The novel opens with the ship’s captain, Mikal Verdan rescuing one of his sailors, a kender named Tripleknot Shellcracker from a sea monster. THey narrowly escape and are pulled on deck just in time for the crew to near mutiny. THey have not been informed about the point of this excursion and they have been sailing the northern Courrain ocean for longer than anticipated with no end in sight.  They are told they are headed to the Dragon Isles where everyone will get their share of the spoils, and this pacifies them. Then they see floating wreckage which the kender claims has someone on top. It takes a while to intercept but there is a Dargonesti elf chained and unconscious on the wreckage. They bring her aboard and nurse her. It is revealed that she was believed to be cursed by her former shipmates and left to die, because there is  a sea dragon named Tempest trying to enter the Dragon Isles with her dragonspawn Mog. If they can’t get through the veil which protects the isles, no one will. She has been attacking all ships that dare to get near. It is also revealed that the captain, Mik, is having visions of treasure and the dargonesti named Ula, is willing to help him locate the isles and treasure for a percentage. He agrees, but Karista doesn’t. Then Tempest attacks. She capsizes the ship and kills most of the crew. Mik and Trip use the failing magical items to breathe under water but are captured by other Dargonesti and brought to their underwater town. There they will be sold off into slavery or fight. However, Tempest and Mog followed. Once imprisoned they see that Ula and Karista were there and the only other survivors. Then Tempest attacks. They escape together with the help of one of the elves that captured them named Shimmer. He leads them to the Veil and with the aid of a black gem Mik has, they all pass through. Mog follows and narrowly passes through as well. Though Tempest is left on the other side still. Tempest charges at the barrier using all her might and magic and is repelled again and again. She must be content that her spawn is on the other side, following the mortals, waiting to spring a trap and drop the veil once and for all. On the other side, the party comes ashore and is seen by a massive dragon, then a ship rolls up under order of the Brass taking them captive. Ula demands honor by combat rather than them being taken to their lord, and she fights Misa Kell, defeating her. Her brother is furious but honors the bargain. Ula is to take them to the dargonesti kingdom, but Benthor Kell, Misa's brother, holds to the law of shipping the kender to an island where they all dwell. Karista Meinor decides to stay with Kell to have the Order of the Brass negotiate shipping routes with her. The kender is tied up in a cabin, and Ula, Mik and Shimmer are dropped into a boat and leave to the dargonesti home. Once they arrive they see some of the people from the ruined sea elf town outside the veil, and they make their pleas to the lord of this realm. He allows them freedom and Ula, mik and shimmer decide to look for the next key to their treasure by visiting the sea sage. When they arrive it ends up attacking them and they temporarily defeat it, taking its key. Next they head to the gold dragons libraries. There Ula stays at the ship while shimmer and Mik head up, only to be stopped by a copper dragon guard who knows shimmer and lets them pass.  Back on Kell's boat, Trip escapes and jumps overboard, swimming from the pursuing ship. He hides in a cave and finds  a secret entrance to a pirates hide where he takes a sea dragon cloak that allows him free movement and breathing underwater. He escapes his pursuers and gets passage from the pirate Jerrick the Red, an old acquaintance of Miki's. Very convenient. He takes the kender to the same island as his companions, conveniently, and meets Ula there. Mik and shimmer enter the library and mik climbs to the peak and has a vision of the island chain being formed and populated, then gets the next key piece. They come to shore to see Ula, Trip and Jerrick where they bargain for his ship to take them to the final key location. Kell meets with the order of the Bronze and is told to stop Ula and shimmer, retrieving the treasure themselves as payment for the future shipping agreement with Karista. They pursue Jerrick’s ship and their dragon emissary abducts Ula. Shimmer transforms into a bronze dragon, his true form, and attacks the bronze holding Ula. He recovers her as krell seizes control of Jerricks ship with his own. Shimmer crashed on deck with Ula and both sides nearly come to blows when Jerrick speaks up, on working together to split t he treasure. The interjection actually works and they all get together to find the last piece ofthe key.  They find the location and dive under the water, locating the temple where they find the key, but Mog is waiting and attacks a guard, changing into his appearance. He joins the crew and as Mik assembles the key with thenew piece, a stairway appears and ascends into the sky. They begin to go up and swarms of crabs attack, then Karista steals the key from Mik and reveals she is working for Tempest, this stuns Mog and they both race to the temple fighting the heroes all the way. Tempest breaks through the barrier when the group arrives at the temple and the now fully assembled key is a lightning weapon that is turned against the heroes. Factions are blurred and everyone seems to survive incredible wounds but the fight is truly epic. Karista is defeated and the heroes reclaim the key only to have tempest arrive and fight them, killing many people, including Karista, and the all scatter trying to defeat the sea dragon. Eventually Mik faces off against it and it plumets into a volcano, which then erupts and the key seems to offer Mik treasure at the sacrifice of the Dragon Isles. He refuses and throws the key into the volcano as well. The temple of the sky begins to fade and he leaps in to the ocean, sure to drown. He is saved by Ula and they return to the ship, when Trip arrives with a miraculously still alive Shimmer. They all decide to continue searching for treasure in the Dragon Isles together and the novel ends abruptly. There were so many moments where characters should have died over and over again, but I forgive it for the epic scope of that final battle. The author isn't great, but I did find myself enjoying this novel more than I anticipated, even if the story itself was seemingly rushed. I also think it was more epic than the Dawning of a New Age final novel, which while not saying a lot since it want good, does say that this one novel was superior to a trilogy. If you are a fan of the Dragon Isles, and water based adventures, this is a must read. For fans of Dragonlance, it is fun, but not required reading.

In this special episode, we go behind the scenes of the 6-time BAFTA-nominated film I Swear (2026) with the filmmaking team! In Part 1, Giles Alderson and Dom Lenoir sit down with producers Piers Tempest (The Wife, William Tell) and Georgia Bayliff (Paradise Highway) from Tempo Productions. They discuss the reality of financing independent British drama in 2026, how they packaged a film about Tourette's syndrome as a crowd-pleasing theatrical event, and the role of a producer during a busy awards season. In Part 2, Giles and Dom are joined by writer/director Kirk Jones (Waking Ned, Nanny McPhee, Everybody's Fine). Kirk reveals why he returned to his indie roots for this passion project, the challenge of directing Robert Aramayo's transformative performance (nominated for Best Actor), and how he raised finance and balanced humor with the gritty reality of the true story.

Send us a textA large National Council of Teachers of English teacher survey reported by Education Week lists Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and Hamlet among the most frequently assigned texts in U.S. And Folger Shakespeare Library notes its edition sales (a good “what schools buy” proxy) had Romeo and Juliet first, followed by Hamlet, Macbeth, then A Midsummer Night's Dream, Othello, and Julius Caesar.But before I start talking about British school subject matter, I better describe one certificate and one assessment of skills that are more or less standard in the United Kingdom.First, there is the GCSE or General Certificate of Secondary Education.It's the main set of school qualifications students typically take in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, usually at age 15–16 (Year 11). Students take several subjects (like English, Math, Sciences, History, etc.), and the results are used for next steps such as A-levels or vocational courses.And then there is the AQA -  which stands for Assessment and Qualifications Alliance an exam board in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland that creates the syllabuses, sets the exams, and award qualifications for subjects such as English, History, Sciences, etc.).Now back to the Shakespearean plays most frequently studied in the United Kingdom.Most-studied in UK secondary schools - In the UK, the gravitational center is Macbeth—especially at GCSE level. A UK secondary teaching survey reports Macbeth as the most popular overall, and one study cited within the literature reports ~65% teaching it for GCSE (with Romeo and Juliet next).Exam boards also list Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest, The Merchant of Venice, Much Ado About Nothing, Julius Caesar and Twelfth Night.  12th night is sometimes add it to the list.So before I start going into some of the modern productions of Shakespeare's plays, I thought it might be more fun, as well as instructional, to go back and look at the originals.But first I'm going to give you what I hope is a simple timeline - about a minute - that roughly puts Romeo and Juliet into perspective date wise.Early 1590s: early blood-and-thunder tragedy + first big history hits (think Henry VI plays, Richard III).1594–1596: lively early comedies and experiments as his voice sharpens (e.g., Love's Labour's Lost, A Midsummer Night's Dream).c. 1594–1596: Romeo and Juliet (mid-1590s), one of his early breakthrough tragedies.1595–1596: Richard II (another key mid-1590s work).1596–1597: The Merchant of Venice (often placed around this period).1598–1599: Much Ado About Nothing (late-1590s “mature comedy”).1599–1600: Julius Caesar (turn-of-the-century political tragedy).1599–1601: Hamlet (written around this window; many place it at 1601).Early 1600s: the “big tragedy” period ramps up (including Macbeth, usually dated after James's 1603 accession).1610–1611: late “romance/magic” phase, including The Tempest and The Winter's Tale.1613: very late career work like Henry VIII.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Can wisdom be taught? What if it were more about questions than finding "the answer"? How might reading be a meditative practice? Can writing from earlier centuries provide inspiration without mediation by academic experts?Valentin Gerlier is a scholar, musician and author, who is also the founder of the School of Sophia – a new hybrid educational platform that explores these sorts of subjects. “Inspired by the ancient Wisdom Schools”, its seminars are grounded in collective inquiry, with experiential insights as part of the process.Our conversation considers how wisdom relates to worldly action. The school's curriculum asks about power: “Can it flourish for the good, or is it something to surrender?” Could a deeper intelligence help? In addition to discussing that, we explore some of the influences on Valentin's work, including:* Mysticism, Joseph Milne and the Temenos Academy* Krishnamurti, Theosophy and Brockwood Park School* Satish Kumar, Schumacher College and Small is BeautifulThe texts for this term are The Tempest by William Shakespeare and Simone Weil's Gravity and Grace. A recorded introductory meeting will be archived here. Weekly sessions are on Mondays from February 2, with in-person gatherings to follow.

Drummer Michael Shrieve's story reads like a rock-and-roll fairy tale — the kind of musical journey that blends youthful serendipity with restless creativity, and a lifelong appetite for pushing boundaries. Before he was a name on Santana's classic albums or a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, he was a kid with sticks and big dreams.Born in California, Shrieve grew up deeply drawn to music. As a teenager he played in his first serious band and gigged around backing rhythm and blues acts — even sitting in with seasoned performers like B.B. King and Etta James.At just 16, a pivotal moment came when he sat in during a jam at San Francisco's famed Fillmore Auditorium. His playing caught someone's ear — Santana's manager Stan Marcum — setting the stage for his astonishing ascent.At 19, Shrieve met Carlos Santana in a studio and was invited to join the band on the spot. It was a leap that would change his life. Almost immediately after joining, Shrieve found himself at the center of one of rock's defining moments: Santana's performance at Woodstock in August 1969. Barely 20 years old, his explosive drum solo on “Soul Sacrifice” became one of the enduring visual and sonic highlights of the event's documentary.Between '69 and '74, Shrieve played on Santana's first seven albums: Santana (1969), Abraxas (1970), Santana III (1971), Caravanserai (1972), Welcome (1973) and Borboletta (1974), plus the live album Lotus (1974).He wasn't just a timekeeper. On Caravanserai he co-produced and co-wrote four tracks, helping guide the band into more experimental, jazz-infused territory. His work helped broaden the possibilities of rock percussion, drawing on influences from jazz greats and Latin rhythms alike.By the mid-'70s, Shrieve was ready to expand his musical palette beyond Santana. He left the band to pursue solo projects and relocated to London. One of his first ventures was Automatic Man , a group that blended rock with progressive and funk elements. He then joined the avant-garde fusion supergroup Go, alongside formidable musicians like Steve Winwood, Stomu Yamashta, Klaus Schulze and Al Di Meola. The band released multiple albums and toured, diving deep into jazz, electronic and world music textures.Throughout the late '70s and '80s Shrieve stayed busy, playing with Hagar Schon Aaronson Shrieve (with Neal Schon and Sammy Hagar) and contributing to albums by artists as diverse as The Rolling Stones (Emotional Rescue, 1980) and Roger Hodgson of Supertramp. He also collaborated on Richard Wahnfried projects with electronic composer Klaus Schulze and recorded his own electronic music.After leaving Santana, Shrieve didn't slow down — he reinvented himself again and again. Beyond rock and fusion bands, he became a composer and session player whose credits include work with Mick Jagger, George Harrison, Pete Townshend, Andy Summers, Jaco Pastorius and many others.He also ventured into film music, composing scores for movies including Tempest and Apollo 13, and continued collaborations with musicians across genres.In 1997 he reunited with former Santana members — Neal Schon, Gregg Rolie, José Areas and Michael Carabello — in Abraxas Pool, a project that revisited and re-imagined elements of the classic Santana sound.Shrieve's contributions were formally recognized when he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 for his work with Santana, and later honored with Guitar Center's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005. He's also been cited by Rolling Stone as one of rock's greatest drummers.In 2016, he briefly reunited with the original Santana lineup for the album Santana IV, again marking his deep connection to the music that made his name.Today, Michael Shrieve remains a vibrant artist. His band Spellbinder, blends jazz and improvisatory rock; he works on ambitious solo projects like Drums of Compassion; and continues to collaborate with forward-thinking musicians across genres.Michael joins us today to share his story.

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my interview with Tony-winning director Julie Taymor. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including the visual motif of circles in THE LION KING, adapting the plot of the film, exploring artifice in THE TEMPEST on stage and on screen, working with Kathryn Hunter on A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, practicing mask work in auditions, how studying myths in college influenced her later work, her pioneering work on the film FRIDA, why Shakespeare's dialogue is inherently visual, creating a new form of theater in Korea, finding ideographs for every production she directs, bringing THE HAGGADAH to life at the Public Theater, collaborating with Elliott Goldenthal, combining opera and musical theater in JUAN DARIEN, finding a visual take on M. BUTTERFLY, changing the ending of GROUNDED, her opera debut with OEDIPUS, honing her craft in Paris, Indonesia, and Japan, the modern relevance of SPIDER MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK, her new musical THE GRAND DELUSION, and so much more. Don't miss this fascinating conversation with a true visionary.

Family Matters Ch. 15Still in Ors Themar, the party finishes a short rest and prepares to escape, quickly realizing that leaving the city may be as dangerous as entering it. They navigate tight passages, dispel glyphs, and move with hushed precision, managing to avoid further combat and finally put distance between themselves and the city before making camp for the night. During watches, they process the weight of what they witnessed. Shanks thanks Yurik for the rescue, concerns are raised about Ors Themar's implications for Nakoroa, and the group reflects on how dire the situation may be.During the watches, deeper conversations unfold. Turk and Glad discuss Glad's fallout with The Protector, while Arguile admits he initially believed Yurik was the threat his mother, Dorna, was facing. Galahad and Shanks speak candidly about fear, death, how Galahad's aura functions, and a new potion Shanks has been developing. By morning, Shanks discovers a small copper coin and a raven's feather, an ominous sign, while Arguile notices the stone's count has dropped to two. Alarmed, the group breaks camp and heads back toward the city with urgency, stopping one last time at the now-empty field where the cursed cabin once stood. Overnight, the stone drops further, ticking down from 0.5 to 0.1 as they approach.Upon entering the city, a shepherd informs Yurik that Shepard Miles has summoned them to their usual meeting place. Before going, they detour to Yurik and Dorna's home, only to find it empty as the stone finally reaches zero. As Yurik struggles to understand where Dorna could be, questions arise about his connection to Shepard Miles. Shanks realizes Arioch has been manipulating events behind the scenes all along, and when Galahad asks about Yurik's sword, Yurik reveals it was given to him by Shepard Miles. Recognizing the urgency, Shanks insists they leave immediately, and as they rush to confront Shepard Miles, the group identifies Yurik's blade as Tempest's Edge.There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!Theme Music is written and performed by EfflorescenceMixed by Thomas Lapierre IIITitle Card by Pierce GraphicsCheck out the show at themedusascascade.com Hosted on Acast.

진행자: 박준희, Chelsea ProctorWhat were the best K-dramas of 2025?기사 요약: ‘중증외상센터', ‘폭싹 속았수다'부터 ‘서울 자가에 대기업 다니는 김 부장 이야기'까지, 올 한 해 큰 사랑을 받은 한국 드라마를 되짚어본다.[1] The year began strongly with Netflix's January release of “The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call.” The medical drama follows genius surgeon Kang-hyuk (Ju Ji-hoon), balancing heroics with authentic surgical intensity. The drama gained traction by pairing its weighty, human-centered storylines with fantastical depictions of a hero doctor, which added moments of levity to the tension.strongly: 강하게 *strong: adj. 강한, 힘센genius: 천재; 특별한 재능authentic: 진본인; 정확한gain traction: 주목받기 시작하다[2] If “The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call” set the tone, Netflix's “When Life Gives You Tangerines” may have delivered one of the year's biggest breakouts. Anchored by the Hallyu sensation pairing of IU and Park Bo-gum, the series was the cultural touchstone of the first half of 2025 — creating buzz as well as viewership with a story that resonated across ages and borders.set the tone: 분위기를 정하다; 기조를 제시하다anchored by: ~에 의해 진행되는, 닻을 내린, 핵심적 존재가 중심을 잡는 역할을 하는sensation: 큰 반향을 일으킨 사람, 사건, 콘텐츠touchstone: 기준[3] Other streaming titles also left their mark. Disney+'s “Tempest,” starring Jun Ji-hyun and Kang Dong-won, ranked second worldwide among the over-the-top service's originals during its run. Domestically, though, the series struggled to sustain momentum, facing stiff competition and fading post-release discussion despite its some 50 billion won ($34 million) budget and A-list cast.worldwide: 전세계적인struggle: 힘겹게 ~하다momentum: (일의 진행에 있어서의) 탄력; 가속도stiff: 뻣뻣한, 딱딱한 *stiff competition 치열한 경쟁[4] Later in the year, “The Dream Life of Mr. Kim,” starring Ryu Seung-ryong as an everyman facing unemployment, family life and office politics, struck a chord with viewers.

First new episode in over a year and we come at you live from Buck Rubs Gentlemens club with the beautiful Tempest. The quick witted stage dancer only gives us a dash of her wonderful personality but we learn oh so much. From political aspirations to that guy from Poison come along for some fun and a new beginning for the podcast.

This year's seasonal offering takes the form of a voyage, exploring resonances inspired by the carol "I Saw Three Ships". Today, the third and final episode recounts the tale of the Sea Venture. The real life escapades of this important ship inspired Shakespeare's most famous maritime fantasy, The Tempest, and this episode will transport you all the way into 2026. Happy New Year!

In this episode of IPS DEPROGRAM, hosted by Tim Ozman at the close of 2025, the discussion centers on the transition from a year dominated by “rage bait” to an upcoming “Great Deconstruction” in 2026. The host introduces the concept of “Auto-Hoax Maxing” (or auto-hoax accelerationism), which posits that because a significant portion of online content is now AI-generated and the world is “deep faked,” the only logical default position is to assume all major media events are scripted simulations.The episode heavily analyzes the “Erica Kirk character arc,” claiming her public grieving and political rise following the alleged death of Charlie Kirk is a manufactured “world stage” performance predicted by films like The Tempest and Heads of State. Ozman dismisses high-profile conflicts, such as the beef between Alex Jones and Candace Owens, as “kayfabe”—fake drama designed to keep the public engaged in political “soap operas”. The conversation also delves into Gnostic cosmology, suggesting humanity is trapped in a “Saturnian” realm of soul extraction and fear, while urging listeners to bypass political engagement in favor of mental deprogramming and “visual literacy” in an age of total deception.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Five Key Quotes1. “We're all, by default, immersed in deep fakery. The world is deep faked.”2. “This is the point... auto-hoax accelerationism. This is the point where we know what we know and we know we're not wrong, so we have to platform this.”3. “We will technically be visually illiterate; we will be dependent upon the authorities to tell us what is and what isn't real. Because we are now in the desert of the designated real.”4. “The world stage is a quarantine against objective reality. It's like being in a bunker, a global bunker.”5. “Erica Kirk has done more for auto hoaxing than anybody since Robbie Parker. If you need any more evidence of world stage theater, and scripted fake characters and fake events, we have it all here.”Topics:• The AI Information Takeover: The host cites reports that 33% of online content and YouTube feeds are now AI-generated, leading to a state of “visual illiteracy” where the public can no longer distinguish between real and manufactured footage.• Auto-Hoaxing as a Methodology: The practice of “Auto-Hoax Maxing” involves assuming media events are fake by default, rather than waiting for proof of a PSYOP.• The Erica Kirk “Conundrum”: A deep dive into the “Turning Point USA” (TPUSA) narrative, asserting that Charlie Kirk is an actor who is still alive and that Erica Kirk's public persona is a “suit” or character being used to promote J.D. Vance for 2028.• Political “Kayfabe”: The dismissal of mainstream “truth seeker” dramas (Alex Jones vs. Candace Owens) and political movements (QAnon) as controlled opposition or “soap operas” meant to divert attention from actual media fakery.• “Looksmaxing” and the “Woke Right”: A critique of the Nick Fuentes/Clavicular interview regarding “bone smashing” and body modification, which the host labels as “gender affirming care for the woke right”.• Predictive Programming in Cinema: Analysis of films and shows such as The Tempest, Heads of State, Sputnik, Daybreakers, and Hot Skulls as scripts that foreshadow upcoming “fake” history, including assassinations and “cyber pandemics”.• Gnostic and Saturnian Philosophy: The idea that the physical world is a “degradation realm” created by a “Demiurge” to extract “soul sparks” through fear and terror, facilitated by “Archons” or “matrix agents”.• The “Great Deconstruction” of 2026: A call for supporters to join the IPS Discord to prepare for a year of dismantling political illusions and accelerating the “Great Deconstruction” using AI tools.• New Year's Eve Terror Drills: Discussion of canceled events in LA, Paris, and Tokyo, which the host suggests are “hoax indicators” or drills used to set the stage for future staged events.

Pre-emptive engine overhauls, upgrading an old electrical system, spark plug anti-seize, and old wood wing concerns are on tap for this episode. Send your questions to podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Lance inherited some furniture that had lived in the Midwest for 200 years, and began splitting after only a few years after he moved to Salt Lake City. He's wondering if the same concern would hold with wood wings, like those on the Bellanca Viking. The hosts say not to worry. The wood spars are lathered with a varnish that helps keep out moisture, Sitka spruce is resistant to splitting, and Mike said in his experience with Vikings in the 1970s, shops didn't report issues with airplanes that had lived in different parts of the country. Jim has an Arrow and he wants to guard against the long down times we're seeing at overhaul shops. To do so he wonders if she would pick the right time and pre-emptively overhaul his engine, or at least change out the cylinders. Mike, Paul, and Colleen fully lecture poor Jim on the perils of so-called top overhauls, and instead advise him to do nothing more than stock a cylinder in case the time comes and he needs it. Darren is thinking of putting an all-new panel into his Tri-Pacer, and he's wondering if he should upgrade his generator to an alternator when he does it. Paul said he's not worried about the generator when it comes to his avionics, but given that Darren flies at night, Paul thinks an alternator is probably a good idea. Steve is wondering about spark plug anti-seize compounds. He uses the Tempest and Champion products, but found Lycoming's service instructions that prohibits their use. It calls for a copper-based compound, or motor oil. The hosts think the guidance might be a result of getting the carbon-based anti-seize on the insulator, which would cause arcing. They all agree that motor oil would be a bad choice. Paul thinks the Champion compound is fine, so long as you use only a little, and keep it off the last thread. Mike now uses an anti-seize stick that you apply to the threads, almost like a lip balm.

Brixton Metals CEO Gary Thompson joins the show to break down the company's newest discovery at the Thorn Project in northwestern British Columbia — the Tempest copper-gold-silver porphyry system, announced in early December. This marks the second new porphyry discovery at Thorn in just over a year, following the Catalyst discovery reported in late October (TSX-V: BBB).Drawing on Brixton's latest news release and the company's December 2025 corporate presentation, the discussion outlines how Tempest emerged from a combination of IP geophysics, soil and rock geochemistry, and first-pass drilling. Thompson explains that Tempest hosts a nearly 2 km² IP anomaly, slightly larger than Catalyst's ~1.4 km² footprint, and that both zones lie roughly 2 km apart within what is shaping up to be a multi-center, 8–10 km porphyry corridor at Thorn.Thompson details the results from Hole THN24-601 at Tempest, which cut intervals of porphyry-style veining and alteration with copper-gold mineralization, including intercepts such as 16.6 m of 0.63% CuEq, 27 m of ~0.40% CuEq, and a broader 90 m averaging ~0.33% CuEq. He notes the intriguing near 1:1 gold-to-copper ratio, distinguishing Tempest and Catalyst from the deeper, more copper-dominant Camp Creek system. The geology suggests interlayered reactive and less-reactive volcanic phases, with age-dating underway to determine how these systems relate temporally.The conversation expands to Brixton's broader exploration strategy for 2026:• Additional drilling at Tempest and Catalyst, where large footprints and limited drilling create substantial open-ended potential.• Evaluating deeper targets at Trapper, where notable high-grade gold hits were generated in 2025.• Continued shallow drilling at Camp Creek to follow up on near-surface breccia- and vein-hosted gold-silver-copper zones.• Budget ambitions of roughly $10M, dependent on market conditions.Thompson also provides an update on the Langis Silver Project in Ontario. With silver recently breaking through US$60/oz, Brixton is mobilizing a drill program (targeting mid-January) to extend the high-grade native silver veins around historic workings that previously produced 10.5 Moz at ~25 oz/t. With shallow drilling costs around $200/m, Langis offers high-impact, low-cost exploration upside, with resource delineation now firmly in sight.The episode wraps with expected near-term news flow: remaining drill results from Trapper and Camp Creek, a comprehensive geochemical dataset, and pending high-grade silver assays from Langis in early 2026.

This week on The Literary Life podcast, Angelina, Thomas, and Ella continue discussing Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. They begin engaging with the text today by talking more about satire and parody as elements in this story. While recapping the major plot points in these chapters, they go deeper into the character of John the Savage, the ways in which this story is like a distorted reflection of The Tempest and Othello, as well as so many other Shakespeare references. Come back again next week for our final episode in this series as we cover the final chapters of Brave New World! Don't forget to check out our show notes page for links to books mentioned, commonplace quotes, and today's poem! https://theliterary.life/303. 

Welcome back to The Literary Life podcast and our series on Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Angelina Stanford, Thomas Banks, and Ella Hornstra open the conversation by sharing their commonplace quotes, then jump into the book discussion with some connections between Huxley and Lewis Carroll and how Brave New World is like Alice in Wonderland. Angelina also teaches about the medieval conception of the tripartite soul and how it relates to this story, as well as making some distinctions between literary satire and parody. They talk about more of the pictures of Freudian principles as illustrated in this society, as well as the way in which the characters live like machines. Ella goes into a little introductory information on Shakespeare's The Tempest and its connections to Brave New World to keep in mind as we continue reading. Don't forget to check out this coming year's annual Literary Life Online Conference, happening January 23-30, 2026, "The Letter Killeth, but the Spirit Quickeneth: Reading Like a Human". Our speakers will be Dr. Jason Baxter, Jenn Rogers, Dr. Anne Phillips, and, of course, Angelina Stanford and Thomas Banks. Also, we are excited to announce the upcoming spring course with Dr. Michael Drout, Viking and Old Norse Culture. Learn more and register at HouseofHumaneLetters.com.

Wrestling with Shakespeare, Faith, and the Limits of Technology   Host Curtis Chang and Dr. Jessica Hooten Wilson—Fletcher Jones Chair of Great Books at Pepperdine University—explore The Tempest by William Shakespeare and its timeless wisdom for our technology-driven world. Through Prospero's struggle with power, control, and love, they draw parallels between Shakespeare's "magic" and our modern dependence on digital tools. Wilson explains how the play invites us to surrender our illusions of control, embrace humility, and rediscover relationships grounded in grace. Curtis and Jessica's discussion touches on C.S. Lewis, Andy Crouch, and the spiritual discipline of wrestling with hard texts and ideas in an age of easy answers from ChatGPT.   (02:30) - Dependence Upon Technology as Magic (05:40) - What Do We Forget in Our Obsessions?
