What this episode covers

To welcome Autumn, an all time favourite poem by Romanian Legendary Poet Nichita Stanescu. The translation is my own. Autumn Emotion By Nichita Stanescu Autumn has come, cover my heart with something With the shadow of a tree or better with your shadow I’m afraid I will never see you again, sometimes, That I’ll grow wings sharpened all the way to the clouds That you will hide inside a foreign eye And with an absinthe leaf will close itself goodbye So then I get closer to stones and get silent, I take the words and drown them in the sea, Whistle the moon and rise it and pretend it Into a great big love ********************************************** Emotie de Toamna A venit toamna, acoperă-mi inima cu ceva, cu umbra unui copac sau mai bine cu umbra ta. Mă tem că n-am să te mai văd, uneori, că or să-mi crească aripi ascuţite până la nori, că ai să te ascunzi într-un ochi străin, şi el o să se-nchidă cu-o frunză de pelin. Şi-atunci mă apropii de pietre şi tac, iau cuvintele şi le-nec în mare. şuier luna şi o răsar şi o prefac într-o dragoste mare. Enjoy! To get in touch about the podcast, contact [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 ) The History of China Podcast Ibnul Jaif Farabi / Light Knot Studios What does the world's oldest continuous civilization, with over 3,000 years of recorded history, have to teach us about power, philosophy, innovation, and human nature?
