Episode 96: Public Domain Day

[Posting has been super erratic, and I apologize. There is a quick note this week, but next episode, (in two weeks, I promise) I’ll be able to better explain what is going on.]

It was Public Domain Day, which is exciting, but especially if you know what it is and what it means. But since this is something we don’t often talk about, M is going to need to explain.

Topic for Today's Episode:

Public Domain Day

The Great Gatsby

Episode 95: Anohana: The Flower We Saw that Day (And Maybe Every Day...)

[Apologies for the delays. Struggles with perfecting the script were then swallowed up my malfunctioning fire alarms. Hard to say which is worse for a podcaster, really...]

Grief is a touchy subject, but it is also an inescapable one for some of us, though there are ways we can cope with it. Like crying, which is okay.

Episode 94: The Midnight Gospel Part 2 - Looking at the Source Material

Adaptations are... Well, we want them to be an art form, but they also promise to be profitable considering there's already a cultivated batch of consumes. But that doesn't mean they can't be done right.

M considers the subject. After having to revamp her script because of an announcement...

Episode 93: The Midnight Gospel and Other Timing Issues

[Studio Note: As Miscellany Media Studios prepares to expand, the posting schedule for Miscellany Media Reviews has been shifted a week to try and minimize audience-cannibalization. The biweekly model will continue going forward.]

Things have been... Well not exactly weird but difficult. And maybe our media consumption habits have changed accordingly. Especially for M.

Episode 92: Lilo and Stitch (And Another Part of Family)

Is sub-podcasting a thing? Anyway, after trashing a script about something that won't be named, M is getting around to addressing that one hot take that filled Twitter for far too long (because any time was too long).

Episode 91: A Song of Wraiths and Ruin (And Once Forgotten Books)

Some mail delays put off this episode, but woo boy, the book was worth the wait for M! This episode not so much...

But anyway, today, M wants to talk about an important kind of book. She calls it "The Gateway Book," as an adapted term from one of her English teachers. Can a book be so good that it can convince you to get back into reading a certain type of book? The answer is obviously, yes.

Episode 89: Time for Some Spotlights

In this episode, M takes the opportunity to almost rant about societal conceptions about motherhood but actual complain about our fascination with fictionalized accounts of Henry VIII. Consider that a warning.

More important, M takes the opportunity to tell you about two podcasts that tell amazing stories: one personal and one historical. There's a way to do both right, so let's celebrate the ones that do.

Episode 88 - The Faceless Old Woman Who Not So Secretly Lives in My Head

A novel about your favorite podcast character can be great until it asks you somewhat uncomfortable questions.... M's talked about the first two Night Vale novels though. Why let global circumstances stop her from talking about the third when a bookstore was able to come through and get her the copy she was really excited for.

Podcasting reviews for charity in April 2020 - podchaser.com

As a (delayed... sorry!) part 1 of a surprise two parter, M talks about repeating the past as a way of getting through the present. And why spending hours watching cartoons on Hulu was actually beneficial for her.

Episode 84: BoJack Horseman

It seems at best absurd and at worst insensitive to post a eulogy in times like this, even if my Dad died 13 years ago, but I think in times like this, we may try to make peace with the way people change before our eyes or the gaps that we are suddenly aware of.

BoJack Horseman is one of my favorite shows ever, but for all the twists and turns and existential punches, all I got out of it was an idea for a eulogy over a decade too late.
