"Father Brown: The Three Tools of Death", a Historyradio.org re-edit
During WWII, Mutual Radio in the United States created a very short lived series based on G.K. Chesterton's Father Brown stories. I discovered two available episodes online, and found that they were scored with annoying and low-cost organ music. So, I rescored one episode and added a few sound effects. The low production values of the original series was probably a reason for why the series was cut very quickly. The acting is Ok.
This story is based on a text by Chesterton, and you will immediately notice that these mysteries are much more conservative than the TV series we see today. However, because there are so few freely available radio dramas of Father Brown, I upload this to the His...

"Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929), a first rate fighting man" by Frank Harris
Просмотров 6321 день назад
This is a spiced up Ai reading of Frank Harris' interview with Georges Clemenceau, the man who steered France through the first world war. I have added music, cross cut some voices and some effects. The segment is quite entertaining, and provides a great insight into the character of Clemenceau, as well as his standing in France during his life time.
"Avicenna and the Observant Young Man" by Ahmed Ibn Hemdem She Ketk-Hoda
Просмотров 8228 дней назад
This is a funny story from the works of Ahmed Ibn Hemdem She Ketk-Hoda. I found it in a rather dated translation in an Edwardian anthology, and updated and polished the sentences a little. I then recorded it with myself as narrator. The text originally came from a Turkish writer known for his anecdotes in the Ottoman period. However, he only collected his anecdotes from original medieval source...

"Reviews of Mussolini's banned romance novel" in Brisbane Telegraph & Adelaide Observer (1929)
Просмотров 94Месяц назад
In 1909, Benito Mussolini was a left wing editor struggling to make living. He penned a romance serial, which was so popular among his readers that it was published as a novel. 20 years later, when we had shifted his political affiliation, became a strong-man and banned his own novel. It was rediscovered by the press and translated to English. These are two contemporary reviews of that novel, a...

This was carried out by the Polish and RussianJewish ledNKVD. The Danzig/Bromberg massacres were protested by Germany to the ' League of Nations ' DOZENS OF TIMES, to no avail....☠️✡️☠️..... " On February 29, 1944 the ' British Ministry of lnformation ' sent the following note to the higher British Clergy and to the BBC. ........Sir, l am directed by the Ministry to send you the following circular letter : It is often the duty of the good citizens and of the pious Christians to turn a blind eye on the peculiarities of those associated with us. But the time comes when such peculiarities, while still denied in public, must be taken into account when action by us is called for. We know the methods of rule employed by theBolshevik dictator in Russia itself from, for example, the writings and speaches of the Prime Minister himself during the last twenty years. We know how theRedArmy behaved in Poland in 1920 and in Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Galicia, and Bessarabia only recently. We must, therefore, take into account how theRedArmy will certainly behave when it overruns Central Europe. Unless precautions are taken, the obviously inevitable horrors which will result will throw an undue stain in public opinion in this country. We cannot reform theBolsheviks but we can do our best to save them - and ourselves - from the consequences of their acts. The disclosures of the quarter of a century will render mere denials unconvincing. The only alternative to denial is to distract public attention from the whole subject. Experience has shown that the best distraction in is ' Atrocity Propaganda ' directed against the enemy. Unfortunately the public is no longer so susceptible as in the days of the " Corps Factory ", the " Mutilated Belgian Babies " and the " Crucified Canadians ". Your cooperation is therefore earnestly sought to distract public attention from the doings of theRedArmy by your wholehearted support of various charges against the Germans and Japanese which have been and will be put into circulation by the Ministry. Your expression of belief in such may convince others. I am, Sir, Your obediant servant ( Signed ) H.HEWET, Assistant secretary. The Ministry can enter into no correspondence of any kind with regard to this communication which should only be disclosed to responsible persons. " - pages 209-210, ' Allied Wartime Diplomacy ' by Edward J. Rozek. ☠️☠️ ......ATROCITY PROPAGANDA - " Atrocity propaganda is how we won the war. And we're only really beginning with it now ! We will continue this atrocity propaganda, we will escalate it until nobody will accept even a good word from the Germans, until all the sympathy they may still have abroad will have been destroyed and they themselves will be so confused that they will no longer know what they are doing. Once that has been achieved, once they begin to run down their own country and their own people, not reluctantly but with eagerness to please the victors, only then will our victory be complete. IT WILL NEVER BE FINAL. Re-education needs careful tending, like an English lawn. Even one moment of negligence, and the weeds crop up again - those indestructible weeds of historical TRUTH.

Torpedo tubes are airlocks and have been used to leave a sub, but not possible in the circumstances of the story. Yes, the rest is pure fancy considering the time and circumstances.

      It may not have existed in the early 1920s when Lovecraft wrote the story, or during the war. Lovecraft wanted to serve but was rejected for medical reasons. But if you read the jules verne classic 20 000 leagues under the sea, you will see that they have these things in that story. So, I just think Lovecraft drew on these old scifi elements. But if you look at the silent movie version of jules verne, they use some of these things in that film, diving suits etc. But they were probably not part of a first world war submarine :) But this story is another study in madness. The outer world is in some ways a projection of a sort das boot like stress. The character also says "I am loosing my ´mind" etc. Which he does. I think the characters uses the top hatch as an escape. That is normal ,

      That's why it's called "fiction".

      I agree, they didn't have these things. Near impossible to whip a person while submerged as well.... not enough space.

      Verne was likely his only source material on subs, but the inaccuracies don’t detract, only provided more amusement.

    Awesome production for the narration of this classic story. Great story that was ahead of its time! Not many dinosaur horror stories were around that time most likely. Thanks to Dino Diego for introducing so many people to this story!

    This story took a turn, its almost like that movie Brave, but instead of bears its a Elasmosaurus, and instead of a happy ending things go south

      Actually, i thought that one fit quite well with the sort of person the red baron was. That was his attitude to the war. Mahimchandra :)
