Summary

Well, this is one movie we are not giggy with. Nineties movies typically have some bad taste jokes we’ve long since learned are not appropriate, but like an oddly placed giant mechanical spider, this movie is rife with them. Liam, Gregg and Scott power through another rewrite, ditching problematic jokes and giving the singular woman in the film something to do (another common theme in our 90s rewrites). Steampunk cowboys should have been easy money, but Will Smith and Kevin Kline showed us that any winning concept can bomb if you try hard enough.

Westminster Alice, The by Saki (1870 - 1916) LibriVox Published five years before John Kendrick Bangs had the same idea with Alice in Blunderland, Saki, in his 1902 series of satirical articles, takes an Alice in Wonderland view of British politics, which Alice finds even stranger than events in Wonderland.In all honesty, owing to its extremely topical nature this political satire hasn't worn well, which explains why it has virtually sunk without trace. To appreciate it at all, it's really rather necessary to understand the topical references. I am no historian, least of all a political historian, but I have researched it as well as I can, and made some notes in an attempt to put the events and characters into their political context for the listener. My notes may be found on the Internet Archive in audio form or in <a href="https://archive.org Melody Craft Ricardo Clement If I have an idea for a song or a melody I take some notes and recordings with my Smartphone to remember the idea later on. Some ideas lead into a full song - others not.Even though the recordings are meant to help myself remembering I find it interesting to publish this process of writing songs as a Podcast.Finished songs will then be uploaded to ricardoclement.com and YouTube. Voice Notes with AB Aditi Bhardwaj Hello Ji: This Podcast is raw like your voice notes to your yaar.I am Aditi, an old school millennial who is trying to fit in this Gen-Z world. I make Voice Notes and keep them on my phone (which eventually get deleted). I have kept some thoughts on paper as well (Kiya to tha bro). You can connect with me on Instagram @aditiibee or write to [email protected] :)I hope you smiled a bit, on me or with me (anything works). The Art of Noticing Johnny B. Truant **A Bite-Sized Podcast that Teaches You to See and Use the Creative Inspiration That's Already Around You** Trouble with the muse? Believe me, I get it. Even after 120 books and a show on Hulu, I have as much trouble “finding the magic” as anyone. But the truth is, you don’t need to seek inspiration because it’s already all around you … if you know how to see it. Each 10-minute episode of “The Art of Noticing” contains two parts: something small and almost random I noticed around me, then a creative lesson I made from it, like spinning gold from straw. Whether it’s something in the news, the rhythm of rain against the window, a bit of trivia, word from a friend, or some small tidbit I picked up somewhere, anything can be creative fuel if you can learn to see what’s in front of you. Nothing is ordinary. Everything is art! /// Find show notes, transcriptions, and multi-weekly blog posts at https://www.johnnybtruant.com <a href="https://johnnybtruant.substack.com/s/the-art-of-no
