Let's start 2026 with a banger! Actor Malcolm McDowell returns to Ojai Talk of the Town for a wide-ranging, unhurried conversation about craft, longevity, and creative freedom.Rather than a press interview, this episode is a reflective dialogue — about working with great directors, living with iconic roles, playing outsiders and villains, and how one's relationship to the work changes once there's nothing left to prove. McDowell reflects on the surprises of a long career across stage, film, television, and voice work, and what a genuinely good day looks like now, when nobody's watching.We also talked about the Ojai Playhouse, local restaurant reviews and the changing faces of the community we both love. We did not talk about the Reivers of the northern English borderlands, the War of the Three Kingdoms or local roadwork.Smart, candid, funny, and occasionally philosophical, this is a conversation that rewards listening all the way through.
Send us a textThis narrative will intricately weave together the stories of three monumental empires during the tumultuous era stretching from the mid-17th century through the early 18th century. My focus will be on France, China, and Russia, exploring the profound changes and intricate connections that defined their respective reigns.Crucially, this expansive story will be told through the intimate lens of their three iconic monarchs. I will delve into the personal perspectives, political strategies, and lasting legacies of Louis XIV of France, famously known as the Sun King; the revered Kangxi Emperor of China; and Peter I of Russia, whose reforms earned him the title of Peter the Great. By examining the world through their eyes, I intend to offer a unique and deeply human insight into an age of unprecedented change and imperial grandeur.Support the show

On today's episode, we venture to Asia to talk about a battle that determined the course of Chinese history, and that has become such an integral part of Chinese historical mythology that it is sometimes difficult to sort fact from fiction. What might have changed if the battle went a different way?
