Let's check in on how Odysseus' other buddies from Troy are dong. *Briefly scans news report from Proteus* Yeah so uh it's a dumpster fire. Today Telemachus arrives at Troy, where he hears from Menelaus about his own fraught journey home, including his encounter with an immortal seal dad (real) which led to the first news of Odysseus in years. It won't bring him home but it will bring his son hope, which might be just what he needs to fill the void that has opened up since Odysseus left.

MOSCOW IN WARTIME, THEN AND NOW: 1/8: The Red Hotel: Moscow 1941, the Metropol Hotel, and the Untold Story of Stalin's Propaganda War by  Alan Philps  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Red-Hotel-Metropol-Stalins-Propaganda/dp/1639364277/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In 1941, when German armies were marching towards Moscow, Lenin's body was moved from his tomb on Red Square and taken to Siberia. By 1945, a victorious Stalin had turned a poor country into a victorious superpower. Over the course of those four years, Stalin, at Churchill's insistence, accepted an Anglo-American press corps in Moscow to cover the Eastern Front. To turn these reporters into Kremlin mouthpieces, Stalin imposed the most draconian controls – unbending censorship, no visits to the battle front, and a ban on contact with ordinary citizens. The Red Hotel explores this gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. They enjoyed lavish supplies of caviar and had their choice of young women to employ as translators and share their beds. On the surface, this regime served Stalin well: his plans to control Eastern Europe as a Sovietised ‘outer empire' were never reported and the most outrageous Soviet lies went unchallenged. But beneath the surface the Metropol was roiling with intrigue. While some of the translators turned journalists into robotic conveyors of Kremlin propaganda, others were secret dissidents who whispered to reporters the reality of Soviet life and were punished with sentences in the Gulag. Using British archives and Soviet sources, the unique role of the women of the Metropol, both as consummate propagandists and secret dissenters, is told for the first time.  At the end of the war when Lenin returned to Red Square, the reporters went home, but the memory of Stalin's ruthless control of the wartime narrative lived on in the Kremlin. From the weaponization of disinformation to the falsification of history, from the moving of borders to the neutralisation of independent states, the story of the Metropol mirrors the struggles of our own modern era.1913 MOCSOW BY GORBATOV

THE KREMLIN IS ALWAYS WELL-INFORMED, THEN AND NOW:  8/8: Stalin's Library: A Dictator and his Books –by  Geoffrey Roberts    https://www.amazon.com/Stalins-Library-Dictator-his-Books/dp/0300179049/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In this engaging life of the twentieth century's most self-consciously learned dictator, Geoffrey Roberts explores the books Stalin read, how he read them, and what they taught him. Stalin firmly believed in the transformative potential of words and his voracious appetite for reading guided him throughout his years. A biography as well as an intellectual portrait, this book explores all aspects of Stalin's tumultuous life and politics.   Stalin, an avid reader from an early age, amassed a surprisingly diverse personal collection of thousands of books, many of which he marked and annotated revealing his intimate thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. Based on his wide-ranging research in Russian archives, Roberts tells the story of the creation, fragmentation, and resurrection of Stalin's personal library. As a true believer in communist ideology, Stalin was a fanatical idealist who hated his enemies—the bourgeoisie, kulaks, capitalists, imperialists, reactionaries, counter-revolutionaries, traitors—but detested their ideas even more.

UPCOMING LIVESTREAM!: https://www.podbean.com/lsw/NpowGT0Kuk7?lsid=Pqw7yIoduWK    Summary Princess Diana's plight with the media abuse she experienced is well documented, yet, decades later we are still learning new details. Leading us down a trail of Media and Police Corruption - Byline Times' Own, Peter Jukes, has the story. Kate Middleton's cancer diagnosis has not only served as media fodder globally, but it is now being used as a whipping stick against a memoir that is over 1 year old. While Kate Middleton's diagnosis is sad, and we wish her all the best, it in no way absolves her from the truthful words and actions she used against the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. We can acknowledge that she has behaved in horrible ways, while still showing concern for her illness.  Lastly, King Charles allegedly "regrets" how he allowed Princess Diana to raise William and Harry. I have never been more disgusted with Charles the Cruel than I am now... which is saying a lot. To lay blame to a devoted mother and wife, who is now deceased, for your own shortcomings THEN AND NOW, is shameful.   Sources: 1.

THE BATTLE FOR GEORGIA, THEN AND NOW by The Charles T. McDowell Center for Global Studies and Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center

Here's the latest in Triple M Rock News with Kalun! In a surprising announcement, Sir Paul McCartney has thrilled Beatles fans by revealing that a new and final Beatles recording will be unleashed later this year. Through cutting-edge AI technology, Paul and his team have successfully extracted John Lennon's voice from an old demo and completed a long-lost song. McCartney shared, "We just finished it up, and it'll be released this year." While the specific song remains undisclosed, it is believed to be a 1978 Lennon composition titled "Now and Then." This demo, among others labeled "For Paul," was created by Lennon shortly before his passing in 1980 and subsequently handed over to McCartney by Yoko Ono, Lennon's widow. Interestingly, the track 'Now and Then' was previously considered a potential reunion song for the Beatles in 1995. However, McCartney disclosed that the song was shelved due to George Harrison's strong disapproval, who famously labeled it "fucking rubbish" and declined to collaborate on it. Shifting gears, tickets for the highly anticipated Australian tour of the Foo Fighters are now on sale! Prepare to be captivated by their electrifying live performances as they grace stadiums across Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane in November and December 2023. The tour will then continue with a trio of New Zealand dates in Auckland, Christchurch, and Wellington in January 2024.

An air check from 1987 landed in my inbox this week and it belonged to Jason Staveley from Gold 104.3. Now the head for Music for GOLD 104.3 and WSFM in Melbourne and Sydnedy Jason still finds time to fill the gaps on the air and loves it! On this weeks show we talk preparation and the art of music announcing.

This is a segment of the Air Heads podcast that was born out of a Facebook question I posted the other day: Do you still have your first Aircheck? The amount of messages I got off the back of that post was out of control and they were all asking to hear my first Air Check? Believe me that will come but in the mean time - who's up for sharing theirs?Who's first Air check would you like to hear from the radio industry. I threw the challenge up to long time radio friend and mentor Liam Renton and let's just say he delivered.

Let's get fashionable, August 1988-style! It's time to start your back-to-school shopping, and you KNOW that means you're going to see a fashion story about plaid. Have you also heard about denim? Or sweaters? Because those get a moment in the spotlight too. What Next is also going to tell you what's hot on the runways of real, grown-up fashion brands, while What Now scales back the difficulty level with a craft involving buttons. (Don't be scared.) This issue also features the premiere of We Try It, with Sassy staffers raiding the beauty closet and reviewing things like the Conair Fashion Plates iron that can crimp a star into your hair! You'll also learn about Cheryl in Diary, and about everyone's jobs in a feature in which all the staffers try subbing in for one another for a day. We discuss all of the above, and so much more -- so many new ads!!! -- in this week's podcast! Visual Aids

While the July 1988 cover goes hard for American-flag style (...and, okay, so does Sassy Club), the rest of the fashion in this issue is not overly patriotic. We're going to Arizona -- or somewhere very dry and hot -- for a swimwear spread. We're in an old-timey cottage for some undergarment looks. And then: stripes. So many stripes. We're also learning about hot-weather hair help, products from the beauty closet the Sassy staff swears by, how to look like a skateboarder (and possibly get called a poser in the process), and so much more. Stick some American-flag toothpicks in your hair -- or don't -- and join us! Visual Aids

Were you afraid of getting a haircut as a kid?  The first time for anything can be scary, or at least intimidating.  This week's discussion revolves around how different things are nowadays compared to when the TS2M guys were kids.Support the show (https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fpaypal.me%2FTalkStupid2Me%3Flocale.x%3Den_US&sa=D)

We're talking about the fashion and beauty of the June 1988 issue! Why is "My Backyard" in black-and-white, and did it make us less likely to covet the clothes? Which panelists hate all the hippies (and the hippie looks) of "Hip Hip Hippie"? Did any models cut their feet modeling barefoot in "Big Brights," and what the hell does "popsicle speed" mean? Did you attempt to tie-dye using What Next's instructions? Did "Some Things Never Change" make you nostalgic for your grandma's style, or Tim Conway's comedy? Isn't that a co-host of The Real on the About Face page? SHOULD you cut up your prom dress? How wild are "The Wild Ones" of Coty Wild Musk? Do we still think Mary Clarke is cool and envy reader Barbara Francis's day at the magazine? Some of these questions will be answered in our latest episode! Visual Aids

Today we are giving you something different. We all have been exposed to sports playing a huge role in our growth process as men. The biggest takeaway is how we have established the experience and teachings into our current lives.

Roche is joined by Alex of All Time Low in a Then And Now edition of Sphere Of Roche. The two go way back as Roche had the band in studio as part of DC101's Local Lix way back in 2006! In segment one, Alex discusses the success of "Monsters" and how it has changed the trajectory of their career, the background on their latest single, "Once In A Lifetime," and the band's tour plans(!) for 2021. Then, in the second segment, we go back to 2006, when the band had just graduated high school! It's a rare glimpse of a band at their peak vs when they were just getting started.BONUS: Alex performs a never before heard version of "Coffee Shop Soundtrack"

It's about to be summer, which means it's time for us all to look at some swimsuits, photographed in a tropical locale (St. John in the Virgin Islands, to be precise). Bright colors? Black? Some all-white dresses? All represented. Catherine also lets you in on the secrets of how models always look so perfect in magazines (it's all kinds of sorcery). Then you can go ahead and plunder your household pantry to make some natural masks and tinctures for your face and hair. We're also talking haircuts, hair dye, a whole mess of ads, Sassy Club, Christina's turn in the Diary spotlight, and much more. Put on your whitest dress, try not to spill a Coke on it, and join us!

In the early 00's The Streets burst onto the scene. Original Pirate Material was like nothing else around. Combining garage beats with everyday stories from a geezer we could all relate to. Mike Skinner wanted to literally push things forward, taking the garage genre in a new direction and using his lyrics to talk about what was really going on inside the hearts and minds of people in the clubs. It struck a chord, and The Streets got a lot of attention. Over five albums Mike Skinner would tour Australia a whole lot, always playing festivals and always drawing a huge crowd. Then in 2011 he called it a day, releasing his final album and doing his final shows as The Streets. Music stayed in his life though. He threw himself into producing, directing, and most notably DJ-ing, behind the decks instead of out front on stage. Across his five songs choices we get a snapshot of a kid writing raps in his notebook in a hostel in Sydney. As well as the man today who is older, wiser, more grounded but with plenty of stories to tell. From Johnny Cash to Grim Sickers to Daft Punk, this is The Streets, Taking 5 with Zan Rowe and playing us his songs from then and now. Johnny Cash – 'A Boy Named Sue' Snoop Dogg – 'Serial Killa (ft. The D.O.C., Tha Dogg Pound and RBX)' Grim Sickers – 'Open the Till (ft. Ghetts and Mike Skinner)' Daniel Bedingfield – 'Gotta Get Through This' Daft Punk – 'Human After All / Together / One More Time / Music Sounds Better With You' (from Alive 2007)
