#122 – Mokalik

from Movie Go Round

Netflix Roulette brought us our first "Nollywood" (Nigerian) movie, Mokalik. A well-off young teen is slacking off at school, and his father brings him to apprentice at a "mechanic's village" for a day, to expose him to an unpleasant alternative. We were all fascinated by this work model that doesn't exist in the U.S., but were the laid-back filmmaking approach and performances enough to hold our interest? Email the show at [email protected].

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
