Summary

This week we foist our brand of armchair screenwriting upon a slice of Canadiana, our country’s very first animated feature film, Rock & Rule. And how did that go for Canada? Well, we believe after making $38,000 at the box office 42 years ago it’s really gaining momentum. Joining us is a rock star in his own right, JP Fournier of The Movie Jerks. Together we break down this interestingly flawed feature, workshopping how we could bring depth to the characters and add a whole lot more music to this “rock opera”.

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). Ring and the Book by Robert Browning Loyal Books "Better translate--"A Roman murder-case:"Position of the entire criminal cause"Of Guido Franceschini, nobleman,"With certain Four the cutthroats in his pay,"Tried, all five, and found guilty and put to death"By heading or hanging as befitted ranks,"At Rome on February Twenty-Two,"Since our salvation Sixteen Ninety Eight:"Wherein it is disputed if, and when,"Husbands may kill adulterous wives, yet 'scape'The customary forfeit.'" (Excerpt from first chapter of The Ring and the Book.)Note from reader: The main text I have read from follows the first edition; but there are some words or lines that do not make sense, either through copying mistakes or because they are difficult if not impossible to make sense of in the first edition. In such cases, I have relied upon an alternate text, found at archive.org and also in the public domain, that contains the wording of the later editions. --Tony Oliva American Idol podcast carrieistheai4 american idol podcast.

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
