  • Scrolls Chapter 16: LOVE, Love, love

    In which our star crossed crew set sail to explore the mmm-agical... mmm-ysterious... and mmm-agnificent [Barry White - Hit It!] 'world of LO-o-O-O-o-O-o-O-O-o-O-O-o-OVE.'
    [Oh, yeah - now put it in the background... just like that, baby... OOH!... Yeah...]

    This episode we talk a bit about torrid and horrid teen fiction, from Twilight to - well, we don't get much further on that part to be honest. Mattie is obsessed.
    Stepping away from the soppy stuff we touch on themes of profound friendship, burning passion and doomed love before finally getting down and dirty (and giggling a lot) with a big talk about sex. [Oh yeah, baby]

    Along the way we also find ourselves discussing inter-genre snobbery, unusual sexual positions, beetle licking and cinema snack-food.

    Near the start we mention a new podcast called Filmsploitation, run by a good friend of ours, Mr Phil Hobden. I heartily recommend you check them out.

    Beware: Contains euphamisms and really scary mental images. This podcast could scar you. For life.

  • Scrolls Middle Earth Special Pt 3: Adaptations and The Tolkien Professor

    17 August 2011 (6:21pm GMT)
    Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 40 minutes and 6 seconds

    Direct Podcast Download

    Caught up in an orcstasy of hobbit-love, the Scrolls team talked so long into the night that an entire section of Chapter 8 had to be cut for fear of Melting Your Brains. Well... it's too late now, obviously, so as Scrolls is taking a short break this month we thought we would share the last of our late night ramblings with you.

    This then, is the Previously Unreleased third part of our Middle Earth Special in which we talk Adaptations - games, plays, movies, music and models.
    Not only that, ladies and gentlemen but we have Additional Bonus Content excavated for you from the dusty archives of Nargothrond. Shortly after the inaugural Festival-In-The-Shire event last year Clover nabbed a skype chat with one of the guests, Professor Corey Olsen. Wary of overburdening you with Tolkienalia at the time, it was eventually decided to shelve this interview - but now you can hear it in its entirety. Tune in and let the Tolkien Professor fix your melted brains.

    If you like what you hear you can download his podcasts free of charge here.

    Intro/Outro music is, as ever provided by Steadman. I have also used a snippet from Howard Shore's wonderful soundtrack to The Return Of The King in order to seperate the two sections of the podcast

    Film's Excalibur and First Knight

    The History of the Kings of Britain by Geoffrey of Monmouth

    Marion Zimmer Bradley's Mists of Avalon

    TH White's entire Once and Future King series

    Bernard Cornwell's Warlord series

    Lord Alfred Tennyson's poetry

    D'Morte D'Arthur by Sir Thomas Mallory

    & in the process they invoke:

    SunTsu's The Art of War

    John Adair's Action Centred Leadership model

    Former English Cricket Captain & Psychoanalyst Mike Brearley's 'The Art of Captaincy.'

    And fall out over Vikings !

    The Time Meddler

    This month's outro music is Dr Who in dub courtesy of  Smerins Anti social Club.

    Also if anyone can work out why a good reason why  Alexis should mention root vegetables we would be most appreciative.

    Apologies for the sound quality of this episode.

    In which we step tentatively into the ethereal realm to mull over the function of religion in fictional worlds and how it can mirror our own. Along the way we poke a few holes in the fabric of reality, prod a few demons and deities with sticks to see what thet're made of, make wild and ill-conceived generalisations about how religions begin and, well, generally invite the wrath of the most powerful beings in the universe.

    Actually, thinking about it we've already had their wrath reteroactively. Clover is missing for the first bit due to unholy technical difficulties, but there's plenty of waffle(s) to go around. Join us as we hit upon Holy social networking, the most popular reason for time-travel, artistic baby recycling, the function of flab in prehistoric man, alternative uses for disabled toilets and Much, Much more...

    (No Gods were harmed in the making of this podcast.)
