BirdNote Daily - 3 Oct 2023: *Bumblebee Hummingbird: The Mexican Buzzer - Mexico's Bumblebee Hummingbird is one of the smallest birds in the world. Less than 3 inches in size and weighing less than a bottlecap, they're easily confused with a bumblebee as they buzz by. But as tiny as they are, they defend their breeding territories fiercely. Perhaps that's why the ancient Mexicas associated hummingbirds with their most important god: Huitzilopochtli, the god of war...and of love. Huitzil means hummingbird in Náhuatl.

Hitmaker Chronicles - 25 Oct 2024: *Michael Jackson “Thriller” - This chilling audio ritual conjures how Michael Jackson's "Thriller" became a seismic Halloween transmission summoning humanity's darkest energies. Tracing the song's infusion of ancient occult dread with MJ's euphoric funk exorcisms, it explores Quincy Jones manifesting a transcendent pop demon. The making of the iconic music video thriller transforming Michael into horror's ultimate pop revenant is dissected in ghoulish detail. The way "Thriller" codified an annual zombie ritual honoring Jackson's sacred duality as slick virtuoso and dark shaman is celebrated. Ultimately, the song's singular phantasmagorical vision fusing music, dance, and cinema into eternal Halloween possession is enshrined. [this episode looks at the song Thriller by Michael Jackson. Despite the fact that it was written by Rod Temperton, there is no mention of that at all!]

Seaside Pod Review - episode 76: 25 April 2024: Kev and Randy presenting as ever. “Should we start podding now?” Two weeks worth of catch up because apparently they’ve not recorded for that long. Randy’s travels. Kev wasn’t sure if he had spotted Ringo Starr or Topol. A listener sent Kev a sweary novelty song. He thinks it’s AI. Kev then gets an AI to create a driving rock song about Eastbourne fishing. After the catch-up chat, they look at feedback from listeners feedback about the previous song Some Day One Day.  Randy yawning because Kev is being boring. The return of the pie and cake debate. Kev says that he will prove that you could make a Shepherd’s Cake. After this, they look at the randomly chosen song this week, which is the Roger Taylor Richard from the inside, from the album use of the world. The song feature, electric guitar, guitar, and vocals by Roger himself. It just have some additional guitar elements from Brian. Short slap delay on his vocal. A really cool song by Randy‘s band at the end of this episode after the show music.

A Passage of Time

  Sunday August 10th 2025 -  I got in from the Saturday night shift at twenty past five, and drifted to sleep a little after six in the morning.  A minute or so after ten in the morning, I woke up for the toilet and looked at my phone. I noticed that I had missed phone calls and messages from my aunties Carol and Ann, as well as a fairly recent message from my younger brother James. They were all asking me to contact them.  I had a feeling that I knew what it was, but I didn’t want to believe it. I messaged my younger brother James, who then rang to tell me that Mum had passed away sometime around 7:30 in the morning.  I messaged someone at work about it, who let a Director know. I misunderstood a message telling me to talk to Wayne in the office on the Monday morning, so got ready for work at the usual time, and showed up at the office at 4:40pm for the five o’clock start, to find that Andy had come in to cover for me, and was told that I was also covered for t...

People point skyward, initially with hope - assuming Superman has arrived to save the day from whatever danger approaches. But their expressions quickly shift to confusion, then horror. / The figure descending from the clouds resembles Superman, but something is terribly wrong. His face is chalky white and cracked like dried mud. His costume is a backward, disheveled version of the iconic suit, the S-shield reversed and distorted. His movements are jerky and unpredictable, like a marionette with tangled strings. / This isn't the Man of Steel - it's his twisted doppelgänger, Bizarro. / "Me am Bizarro! Me here to save day by destroying everything!" he announces in...
