Sonnet 104: To Me, Fair Friend, You Never Can Be Old 33:31

1d ago33:31

33:31

With his celebrated and much-debated Sonnet 104, William Shakespeare appears to set out to do primarily three things: first and foremost, to reassure his young lover that even now, after some appreciable time has passed since they first met, he, the young lover, is still as beautiful to him, our poet, as he was on the very first day; in other words…

Sonnet 103: Alack, What Poverty My Muse Brings Forth 24:01

10d ago24:01

24:01

Sonnet 103 is the fourth and last in this group of four sonnets with which William Shakespeare seeks to excuse himself for not writing more poetry to, for, or about his young lover lately. Like the first two in the group, Sonnets 100 & 101 – which are so closely linked that we may treat them as a pair – this sonnet also references the poet's Muse, …

Sonnet 102: My Love Is Strengthened Though More Weak in Seeming 29:31

17d ago29:31

29:31

With Sonnet 102, William Shakespeare returns to addressing his young lover directly, though still in explanation and indeed defence of the extended period of silence of which Sonnets 100 & 101 spoke, both of which were addressed to his own Muse, admonishing her for her absence. In contrast to those two poems, Sonnet 102 takes full responsibility fo…

Sonnet 101: O Truant Muse, What Shall Be Thy Amends 28:32

24d ago28:32

28:32

Although at first glance Sonnet 101 can stand on its own, it so closely connects to Sonnet 100 that it really in all likelihood should be considered to form with it a pair within this group of four sonnets that they are both part of. Like Sonnet 100, it addresses itself to Shakespeare's Muse – his poetic inspiration – in a series of rhetorical ques…

Chad Fischer (Lazlo Bane) 1:30:34

Noel catches up with Chad Fischer, the frontman of Lazlo Bane. In 2002, they released All the Time in The World, which included "I’m No Superman."

Their debut album, 11 Transistor, included a cover of Men at Work’s “Overkill” and featured …

Sonnet 100: Where Art Thou, Muse, That Thou Forgetst So Long 31:58

1M ago31:58

31:58

Sonnet 100 is the first in a group of four sonnets that speak of a hiatus in Shakespeare's poetry writing to his young lover. In the collection first published in 1609, this follows Sonnets 97 and 98, which both highlight an absence from the young man that has felt to Shakespeare like winter, with Sonnet 99 acting as something of a bridge between t…

In this special episode, Professor David Crystal OBE, one of the world's leading linguists with over 100 books to his name and a global reputation as a writer and lecturer on Early Modern English, talks to Sebastian Michael about Original Pronunciation (OP) – the way William Shakespeare and his contemporaries would have pronounced English at the ti…

Sonnet 99: The Forward Violet Thus Did I Chide 39:26

1M ago39:26

39:26

In the collection of 154 sonnets by William Shakespeare published in 1609, Sonnet 99 is unique for two reasons that are possibly related: it is the only sonnet to consist of 15 lines instead of the usual 14, and it is the only sonnet that leans directly on a known source and can therefore be said to be a more or less direct reworking of an existing…

Sonnet 98: From You Have I Been Absent in the Spring 29:57

2M ago29:57

29:57

When Sonnet 97 spoke of an absence from his lover that felt to Shakespeare "like a winter" even though it actually took place during the summer and/or autumn, Sonnet 98 speaks of either the same or a similar absence that took place during the springtime in April, which, however, on account of not having his lover around, to Shakespeare also seemed …

Chris Slade (The Firm, AC/DC, Chris Slade Timelime) 1:27:03

2M ago1:27:03

Noel catches up with Chris Slade, one of the prominent drummers in rock. Chris first toured the world with Tom Jones and was part of Manfred Mann's Earth Band from 1971-1978. He was a member of the supergroup, The Firm, that featured Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers. Chris's biggest exposure came when he joined AC/DC in 1989 and played on The Razors Edg…

Sonnet 97: How Like a Winter Hath My Absence Been 25:38

2M ago25:38

25:38

Sonnet 97 ushers in a new phase in the relationship between William Shakespeare and his young lover, which, following the upheaval, anguish, doubt, and direct criticism of the young man contained in the group that immediately precedes it, comes across as a series of almost serene reflections first, once again, on a period of separation in this sonn…

Sonnet 96: Some Say Thy Fault Is Youth, Some Wantonness 26:09

2M ago26:09

26:09

With Sonnet 96 William Shakespeare concludes the extraordinary group of sonnets that deal with his young lover's infidelity. Easing off on the harsh criticism of the young man's behaviour voiced in Sonnet 95, he here brings in a new conciliatory tone which acknowledges that the young man's powers of attracting other people are great and that he cou…

1
Sonnet 95: How Sweet and Lovely Dost Thou Make the Shame 27:04

3M ago27:04

27:04

With his astoundingly forthright Sonnet 95, William Shakespeare admonishes his young lover in the most uncompromising terms yet, and he rounds off his salvo with another stern warning that even someone as privileged and exalted as he can go too far. It forms the culmination of a progression in tone and stance that has been underway since Sonnet 87,…

Sonnet 94: They That Have Power to Hurt and Will Do None 26:27

3M ago26:27

26:27

With Sonnet 94, William Shakespeare takes a step back from his discourse in poetry, addressed directly to his young lover, and reflects more broadly and apparently abstractly on a quality of mercy that ought not to be strained. The sonnet makes two at first glance almost separate observations, devoting the first eight lines – the octave – to an eth…

A Fistful of Pain 12:02

12:02

G’day, Epics! Adam here, welcoming you back to Mostly Epic Fantasy. In this episode, I share wild childhood memories with my chaotic and courageous mate Chris. These memories set the stage for exploring a dark and complex vampire novel that captivated me recently. I’ll dive into how Anne Rice’s vampire novels changed my reading habits and reflect o…

Sonnet 93: So Shall I Live, Supposing Thou Art True 24:29

3M ago24:29

24:29

Sonnet 93 is the third of three sonnets that pivot William Shakespeare's stance towards his young lover from one of pure praise and adulation to one that not just questions his conduct and character, but begins to actively admonish him. It picks up directly from the closing couplet of Sonnet 92 and imagines a situation in which the young man is unf…

Sam McMurray Part 2 1:15:17

1
Sonnet 92: But Do Thy Worst to Steal Thyself Away 25:30

3M ago25:30

25:30

Sonnet 92 continues from Sonnet 91 and sets out a compelling – if perhaps strictly speaking somewhat sophistic – argument why the young man may, as the previous sonnet in its closing couplet considered to be a distinct possibility, leave Shakespeare whenever he feels like it, but without in doing so actually making him, Shakespeare, most wretched a…

1
Sonnet 91: Some Glory in Their Birth, Some in Their Skill 27:32

4M ago27:32

27:32

With Sonnet 91, William Shakespeare reclaims his place in the young man's favour, and for the first time in a while – in the published sequence since the group that contains Sonnets 71 to 76 – speaks primarily of how the young man's love privileges him, Shakespeare, above all else. It is for the most part a return to a happier, more confident, more…

John Ford Coley 55:56

Noel catches up with John Ford Coley. John is best known as half of the Grammy nominated duo, England Dan and John Ford Coley.

Other hits include “Love Is The …

1
Sonnet 90: Then Hate Me When Thou Wilt, if Ever, Now 22:17

4M ago22:17

22:17

Sonnet 90 is the third of three poems that form a 'group within a group', purporting to accept, even support, any decision the young man may wish to take to leave his poet lover, for whatever reason he deems justified. Its principal message is straightforward: if you are going to leave me, then do it now, while everything else is going against me a…

1
Sonnet 89: Say That Thou Didst Forsake Me for Some Fault 34:53

4M ago34:53

34:53

Sonnet 89 continues the line of argumentation set up with Sonnet 88 and expounds on the steps William Shakespeare is willing to take to demonstrate to his young man how fully he is prepared to subject himself to his will and to accept a termination of the relationship as perfectly within the young man's rights. In spelling out the things that Shake…

Dean Butler (Little House on the Prairie) 1:28:44

Noel catches up with Dean Butler, who just released his memoir, ‘Prairie Man: My Little House Life & Beyond.’ Dean played Amanzo Wilder on Little House on the Prairie. Dean talks about the controversial first kiss with future TV wife, Melissa Gilbert, who was eight years younger than the 23-year-old actor. Dean discusses the legacy of Little House,…

Sonnet 88: When Thou Shalt Be Disposed to Set Me Light 22:08

4M ago22:08

22:08

Having bid his lover farewell in Sonnet 87 and effectively conceded that this young man is out of his league, starting with Sonnet 88, and stretching over the next two poems, Shakespeare sets the ground for a spirited fightback that will materialise properly in Sonnets 91 to 96. In its tone and its stance Sonnet 88 seems submissive, even self-debas…

1
Sonnet 87: Farewell, Thou Art Too Dear for My Possessing 24:09

5M ago24:09

24:09

With its complete change in tone, Sonnet 87 ushers in a new and decidedly different phase in the relationship between William Shakespeare and his young lover. The sonnet draws on the vocabulary of law, ownership, and finance and in these largely factual terms Shakespeare appears to concede that the young man is simply out of his league: it is the m…

The Rival Poet 48:14

5M ago48:14

48:14

Much has been written and said, speculated and surmised about the Rival Poet in William Shakespeare’s Sonnets, with hypotheses ranging from the idea that there was no ‘rival poet’ and that Shakespeare essentially made up this figure, through the notion that there was perhaps a rival or possibly several rivals but that Shakespeare is not writing abo…

Sonnet 86: Was it the Proud Full Sail of His Great Verse 29:42

5M ago29:42

29:42

Sonnet 86 is the last of the Rival Poet group of sonnets, and it gives a final reason why William Shakespeare has, as he himself put it in Sonnet 85, become tongue-tied and been unable to express himself adequately in his praise of the young lover. Together with Sonnet 80 it bookends the group-within-a-group consisting of Sonnets 82 to 85 which tog…

Tracy Bonham 1:17:54

Sonnet 85: My Tongue-Tied Muse in Manners Holds Her Still 29:13

5M ago29:13

29:13

With Sonnet 85, William Shakespeare concludes the group-within-a-group of four sonnets that concern themselves with his own defence against the charge – evidently levied by his young lover – that his poetry is lacking in lavish expressions of praise and that 'imputes', as Shakespeare himself calls it in Sonnet 83, his silence, or, as it should more…

Sonnet 84: Who Is it That Says Most, Which Can Say More 23:24

6M ago23:24

23:24

With Sonnet 84, William Shakespeare continues and underpins his defence of himself against the charge, referenced explicitly in Sonnet 83, that he has failed to present his young lover with sufficiently effusive praise and instead remained silent about his unparalleled qualities: not only is it the case – as he told the young man there – that you d…

The double platinum album featured the…

1
Sonnet 83: I Never Saw That You Did Painting Need 28:21

6M ago28:21

28:21

Sonnet 83 picks up on the notion, introduced in Sonnet 82, of a 'gross painting' in words that other poets make of the young man with the 'strained touches' that rhetoric can lend them, in stark contrast to Shakespeare's own 'plain true words'. But rather than forming a contained pair with Sonnet 82, it spins the argument further, now giving his re…

Steve Fossen ( Original Heart Bassist, Heart By Heart) 1:02:26

6M ago1:02:26

1:02:26

Noel catches up with Steve Fossen, founding member and original bassist for Heart. Steve was with Heart for their first six albums, leaving in 1982. The mid-to-late '70s version of the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013. Steve, alongside former Heart drummer, Michael DeRosier, formed Heart By Heart, where they preform He…

1
Sonnet 82: I Grant Thou Wert Not Married to My Muse 26:43

6M ago26:43

26:43

With Sonnet 82, William Shakespeare resumes his discussion with the young man of his own status as a poet in the young man's life, attempting a conciliatory, even sympathetic tone which purports to encourage his lover to by all means have a look at other people's writing too, but draws the clearest distinction yet in this group between the authenti…

1
Sonnet 81: Or I Shall Live Your Epitaph to Make 29:28

6M ago29:28

29:28

Sonnet 81, although it appears right in the middle of the Rival Poet group of sonnets, does not concern itself with any poet other than Shakespeare at all, and so it either marks a detour deliberately taken by Shakespeare from his preoccupation with his rival, or it presents an instance in which a sonnet has in fact slipped from its position and be…

1
Sonnet 80: O How I Faint When I of You Do Write 28:30

7M ago28:30

28:30

With his amazingly brazen Sonnet 80, William Shakespeare metaphorically pushes the boat out in more sense than one and comes close to mocking not only his rival, but also – albeit gently – his young lover whom he insinuates being drawn to this other writer not only by his compelling poetry but by a prowess of an altogether more physical nature too.…

Mitchell Whitfield (My Cousin Vinny, Friends) 1:11:42

Mitchell talks about the scene that broke him while shooting Vinny. Mitchell also talks about the starring role on Friends that he almost got. He now is a very successful voice …
