Episode 10 - Ceridwen's Cauldron
This episode we have a famous legend from Wales, featuring the formidable witch goddess Ceridwen, who lives near the shore of Llyn Tegid. The story of Ceridwen's Cauldron is very old and has many different versions, but they all feature her magic cauldron and a fabulous chase filled with transformation - thanks to the magic of Awen. Awen is a Welsh and Breton word for 'inspiration', that magical feeling when your creativity flows beautifully. Think of a time when you have created or been part of something wonderful - maybe a drawing or painting, performing a song or some music...

The Problem with Hospital Childbirth Education Classes with Ceridwen Morris
There’s a saying that goes, “You don’t know what you don’t know,” and this is especially true when it comes to prepping for birth.

Today, we’ll be diving into the key differences between a hospital-led childbirth education class and an independent-led childbirth education class.In this episode of Yoga | Birth | Babies, I am joined by Ceridwen Morris.

Writer Ceridwen Dovey discusses her award-winning essay, "Everlasting Free Fall” with Amy. In the essay she writes that, “in the past 2 years, over 1000 new commercial satellites have been shot into low Earth Orbit.” These satellites are altering the night sky and have many consequences for the science of astronomy and our ability to spot potentially life-threatening asteroids. Listen as Ceridwen explains this concerning development, what it means for us, and the mental shift that needs to take place about space. Broadcast on 30 November, 2021.

Counterpart
As part of our exploration of parallel worlds, Two Nerds discuss the spy thriller series Counterpart. J.K. Simmons plays a double role as Howard Silk, each of whom are members of a shadowy U.N. agency in two different versions of reality. One is a stupendous badass, and the other a colorless drone. The two versions of reality are in something of a cold war with one another, and the two U.N. agencies -- and the two Howard Silks -- are on a slow-moving collision course. It's such a good series.

Monster Hunter
Two Nerds sat down with our Gen-Z consultant (aka oldest son, Leo) to watch Monster Hunter, a Paul W.S. Anderson movie based on the eponymous video game series. We'd never played any of the games, so Leo was on hand to nitpick inconsistences. I think the resident Nerds were more inclined to be forgiving of Monster Hunter's failings, because we're old in not invested in the source material, but Leo made a very compelling case that a lot of the potential was squandered.

The Nevers: Pilot
Two Nerds watch the first episode of HBO's The Nevers, a steampunk Buffy the Vampire Slayer slash X-Men hybrid. The Nevers was created by Joss Whedon, who then apparently "stepped away" some time after all the allegations about his behavior on the set of Justice League. Whatever his involvement, the series is undoubtedly Whedonesque, with familiar character types and relationship dynamics. As a steampunk series, there are also easy comparisons to Carnival Row, which was incredibly beautiful and hopelessly boring; His Dark Materials, which is a great book series, disastrous movie, and uneven HBO series; and Miss Peregrine's Home...

The First of All Parallel Worlds
Two Nerds have spent the last few episodes discussing time travel, repeating day, or otherwise timey-wimey narratives. Adjacent to that (and often overlapping) are stories that explore parallel worlds. In this outing, we discuss the movies Sliding Doors and Another Earth, and touch on a series called Counterpart. Sliding Doors is a rom-com from 1999, and Another Earth a melancholy indie movie from 2005. Counterpart is something like a spy thriller, with two alternate Earths in a cold war of sorts.

Bonus Belgium - Bells, Bells, Bells!
Kerry introduces a new, rare book to enhance our tour of Belgium. Vanished Towers and Chimes of Flanders, 1916, offers colorful stories and detailed description of Malines and Alost, plus historic context to Belgium just before and after World War One, well before our other book reports "nothing" being of interest in some of these places! Watch out for the bell tower keeper!
