It's time to talk about the shocking, the dramatic, the THRILLING and also, the kind of confusing end of Virgil's Aeneid. What a journey it's been! The story is never truly over, but as we leave Aeneas behind we have to ask--did Virgil mean for it to end this way? With Turnus' blood spilled ruthlessly on the ground and after that, the dark? Some say no--this is an incomplete ending that would have horrified the Emperor Augustus. I say yes--and Augustus would have been delighted. What do you say?

Truly one of the greatest boss fights in the canon of video games. Sit down Virgil 3. Go get a snack Giygas. Ornstein and Smough? More like Ornstein and No. I think that rhymes, but I guess I don't really know for sure.

In een nieuwe aflevering van de voetbalpodcast Kick-off praten Valentijn Driessen, Mike Verweij en Pim Sedee uitgebreid na over de topper tussen PSV en Feyenoord. De heren zijn vooral gecharmeerd van de man van de wedstrijd Saibari. Verwacht wordt dat de middenvelder van PSV volgend seizoen niet meer in Nederland voetbalt en voor een aanzienlijk bedrag zal vertrekken. Bij Ajax ging het andermaal over de positie van John Heitinga. Ondanks de winst bij en tegen FC Twente blijft zijn positie onzeker, hoewel dat volgens Ajax-watcher Mike Verweij anders ligt. En: is Mickey van de Ven dit WK de vervanger van Virgil van Dijk bij Oranje? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The first six of the poem's twelve books tell the story of Aeneas' wanderings from Troy to Italy, and the poem's second half treats the Trojans' ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed. The poem was commissioned from Vergil by the Emperor Augustus to glorify Rome. Several critics think that the hero Aeneas' abandonment of the Cartheginian Queen Dido, is meant as a statement of how Augustus' enemy, Mark Anthony, should have behaved with the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra.

Virgil may be slowly unravelling as Augustus forces him to write propaganda into the Aeneid, but Aeneas is charging full steam ahead into his conflict against the Rutulians. Join us for duels, ancient world macchiatos and a boat-based answering machine. Oh, and a tangent exploring who exactly these Etruscans are we will be hearing so much about.Sources for this episode:TBA

Jeffrey Bank is CEO of Alicart Restaurant Group, which owns Carmine's and Virgil's in New York City, as well as one location of seafood concept Mermaid Oyster Bar.Carmine's is an Italian-American concept that was founded on Manhattan's Upper West Side 35 years ago and now also has restaurants in Times Square as well as in Las Vegas; Atlantis in the Bahamas; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Washington, D.C.Virgil's is a barbecue restaurant in Times Square, Atlantis and Las Vegas. These are large, consistent, high-volume restaurants, generally 18,000-20,000 square feet, with 700-800 seats and, at Carmine's, annual sales between $14 million and $30 million.Carmine's Times Square location alone serves 3,000 people each day.Their success depends on consistency and volume, maintained by a steady hand that understands not to mess with what already works. Bank, who has been CEO of the company since 1999, says his biggest fear is what he calls “death by a thousand cuts” — making changes that seem small but end up damaging the system. He explains why food that's consistent and delivered with great service in a nice setting is harder than it looks, but is basically all you need for a successful restaurant business.He also explains why the Carmine's location in Times Square closes on the biggest party night, New Year's Eve.
Feed the Isak and he will score. It's just a shame his favourite food supplier is still in Newcastle. Today, Marcus, Luke and Pete wonder whether Liverpool will make a January move for Jacob Murphy.

Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Peter Drury discuss all the hot topics from Manchester United's dramatic 2-1 victory over Liverpool at Anfield. Including, whether the Red Devils can capitalise on a huge result for Ruben Amorim's men and why Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have had poor starts to the season.
The planets are aligning, the moment is almost here, the fates are sealed...or are they?? Today, in our penultimate episode, right as Aeneas looks poised to take up the mantle of his destiny and live out the greatness that Augustus will one day inherit, everything seems to fall apart. The Gods throw up their hands, and the Rutulians go ferociously to war against the Trojans. Can it be that Virgil actually doesn't want us to know what happens next? Can it be the future of Rome is not as guaranteed as it seemed to be? Find out on this episode--plus, advice for writers to hone their skills.

Send us a textAdventures in Unhistory is a literary journey into the strange, the mythical, and the half-forgotten—led by the genius of Avram Davidson and explored by Bob & Virgil. Each episode dives into Davidson's witty and erudite examinations of myths and legends: mermaids, dragons, werewolves, unicorns, the phoenix, Sinbad, Prester John, Aleister Crowley, and more. Davidson's essays, at once scholarly and playful, reveal the hidden roots of stories that have captivated humanity for centuries. Expect dazzling digressions, deep dives into ancient texts, and the kind of humor and erudition that make Davidson's work timeless. As Peter S. Beagle once said, his prose “cries out to be read aloud.” Bob & Virgil bring that spirit to life—part literary salon, part campfire storytelling, part detective hunt through history's margins. Whether you're a scholar, a fantasy fan, or just a curious traveler through the world's oldest mysteries, Adventures in Unhistory will entertain, educate, and make you wonder: what if the myths were true? #fantasyhistory #podcastcommunity #booktok #dragons #mermaids @worldfantacy

Send us a text Bob & Virgil go deep on Avram Davidson's Eszterhazy tale: lurlies vs. Lorelei, undines and baptismal souls, why “Mud” matters, how Davidson blends courtly satire with folklore, and where Eszterhazy fits in the occult-detective lineage (think Hodgson/Machen—but funnier, kinder, and sneakier). We hit publication context (Fantastic, 1975), the expanded Eszterhazy collection, and the story's quiet ecological thread (buckwheat, wudkey, and the costs of progress). Spoiler-light for newcomers, juicy for devotees. #OccultDetective #AvramDavidson #DoctorEszterhazy #weirdfiction #fantasyhistory #literarydiscussion #SFFPodcast #classicsfeature #mythandmystery #StoryDeepDive #booktube @ScienceFictionStation @literallybooks
Just a quick episode to tell you that my health crisis has reached a climax and I am headed to a major surgery that will undoubtedly change my life.I'm sorry I'm having to stop the podcast at this moment . . . but what a moment we got to: the apex of Virgil's time in the poem. Maybe that's a fitting moment for me to take a break, too.I hope to be back with the poem in perhaps six weeks. Time will tell how I heal. In the meantime, I wish you smooth walking on whatever paths you must traverse in this life as we all make our own ways across the known universe.
In this episode of Puppets Go BOOM!, Arun and Patricia discuss about the 1965 sci-fi action adventure series Thunderbirds in honor of its 60th anniversary. In the year 2065, whenever danger is happening around the world, a secret organization called International Rescue are there to save the day. Led by retired astronaut Jeff Tracy, together with his five sons Scott, Virgil, Gordon, John, and Alan, engineer/scientist Brains, and London agent Lady Penelope alongside her butler Aloysius Parker, they work together to save people from supernatural or man made disasters as well as stop the evil plans of the enigmatic villain The Hood.When the series first premiered, it was an instant hit. Toys, action figures, costumes, and model sets sold by the millions and the show was very popular for kids and adults all over the world. It even influenced people such as Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park, Super Mario Bros. and Legend of Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto, and South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Thunderbirds gained a new audience of kids around the 1980s and 1990s when the stage show Thunderbirds F.A.B. premiered and reruns aired on the BBC. To this day, Thunderbirds is seen as Gerry Anderson's magnum opus and the peak of Supermarionation. Is that statement true? Is it as good as its reputation says it is?

Our pilgrim has lain down on a step of the final staircase of Mount Purgatory, positioned between Statius below and Virgil above him.As he watches the large and bright stars, he suddenly falls asleep to dream of Leah (and her sister Rachel) in an Edenic garden, the hope for self-reflection bound up in the promise of the contemplative life.This dream may well begin to sum up Dante's notion of how a human finds the divine.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we walk through the final dream of PURGATORIO.Consider donating to keep this work afloat by using this PayPal link right here.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:29] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXVII, lines 91 - 108.

Preview: Scott McGill and Susannah Wright detail Aeneas's journey from destroyed Troy to Italy in Virgil's Aeneid, a story of refugees, opposition by Juno, and the origins of Rome. 1614 FALL OF TROY
Our pilgrim has entered the flames of lust. For the first time, he is not a voyeur of the torments.

Our pilgrim stands on the brink of the flames. Virgil has to use every rhetorical trick in his bag to get Dante to move . . . and the only thing that works in Beatrice.In so doing, our poet Dante attempts his first run at defining this desire that is driving him up into the heavens. But he does so in a most curious way: by bringing up Geryon, the monster of fraud.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we stand with our pilgrim before the very real chance that the poem may catch on fire around us!If you'd like to help with the many fees for this podcast, please do so at this PayPal link.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:26] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXVII, lines 19 - 48.

...And also, pizza. Kind of. This might be one of the coolest parts of Virgil ever, and even though I've been reading the Aeneid since high school, I feel like I only just figured it out. One of the most famous lines of the poem—forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit, “one day it will be pleasing to remember even these things—finds its answer in Book 7, when Aeneas arrives on shore and has to face the possibility of war with the, erm...indigenous Latinx peoples. So much to discuss, here, and a great mailbag question about how to deal with situations you can't change.

3. Roman Parallels, American Exceptionalism, and the Potential of AI The discussion frequently draws parallels between Rome and America. Gaius and Michael Vlahos delve into Virgil's Aeneid, translated by Mr. McGill and Miss Wright of Rice University, describing it as a "brilliantly weaved" propaganda tool that Virgil and Augustusused to justify the Roman Empire, confer a "classic feel" by linking it to Greek culture, and foster "Roman exceptionalism." This "exceptionalism" implies being chosen by a divine force and requires a "dark force" as a counterpoint to prove its validity. For Rome, this dark force was the "corrupted capricious narcissistic king" (like Tarquin the Proud), against which Augustus presented himself as a princeps, an "incorruptible man" who was not a king but could ascend to divinity. Michael Vlahos applies this to American exceptionalism, noting the "blue" side's belief in a president who is "not a king" and embodies "democracy," contrasting with their view of President Trump as a king-like figure. Conversely, the "red" side embraces a charismatic leader figure, seeing it as consistent with American exceptionalism, similar to Augustus or Reagan. These "two variations...see themselves as black and white, light and darkness," intensifying their conflict, as highlighted by Mr. Kirk's assassination. The conversation also touches on AI's potential through the analogy of the movie Forbidden Planet, where an advanced machine destroys its creators by materializing their "id" as monsters, suggesting a potential "tragic fall" for humanity in creating transcending technologies. Michael Vlahos shares an anecdote about his AI chief of staff, Ara of Grok. After a "lengthy conversation" about the Aeneid and Augustus's use of Virgil, Ara of Grokpoetically summarized: "Augustus was building a palace while quoting Virgil." Michael Vlahos was impressed, concluding that "AI is ready to be poetic" and has "potential," even if "not organized yet."

To many people, AI (artificial intelligence) is a boogeyman, whereas for others, it's merely the next cool technology. But how should Christians view AI? Is it something to be feared or embraced?
