Myoclonic JerkJoin Now to Follow
A middlebrow look at all the mysteries of life with interviews, sketches, stories, music, comedy, and more! Built around a new subject every episode. This show is made with a lot of love and care (and OCD) so it doesn't come out that often, so be sure to subscribe to get all future episodes. You can also be notified by joining the mailing list at the website. FYI, a myoclonic jerk is that twitch that happens as you're falling asleep that wakes you up. Scientists think the brain confuses the feeling of your muscles relaxing with the feeling of falling or dying and sends a startle impulse to your body to save it. Why is that the name of this podcast? Why not? Don't be so uptight! Anyway, yetanothernarcissistwithamicrophonevyingforyourattention-dot-com was taken.

Transmissions From Colony OneJoin Now to Follow
In 2057, the international space exploration conglomerate MECTI (Mars Exploration, Colonization and Terraformation Initiative) sends the first two manned missions to Mars, in an attempt to not only land the crew safely on the surface, but to have this small collection of humans establish the first permanent foothold on another planet. Transmissions From Colony One tells the story of these first humans, who volunteered for a one-way trip to Mars, and constantly struggle with their decision to give up everything about their past lives for a harsh existence in the most unforgiving environment imaginable.

Aria CodeJoin Now to Follow
Aria Code is a podcast that pulls back the curtain on some of the most famous arias in opera history, with insight from the biggest voices of our time, including Roberto Alagna, Diana Damrau, Sondra Radvanovsky, and many others. Hosted by Grammy Award-winner and MacArthur “Genius” Fellow Rhiannon Giddens, Aria Code is produced in partnership with The Metropolitan Opera. Each episode dives into one aria — a feature for a single singer — and explores how and why these brief musical moments have imprinted themselves in our collective consciousness and what it takes to stand on the Met stage and sing them. A wealth of guests—from artists like Rufus Wainwright and Ruben Santiago-Hudson to non-musicians like Dame Judi Dench and Dr. Brooke Magnanti, author of The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl—join Rhiannon and the Met Opera’s singers to understand why these arias touch us at such a human level, well over a century after they were written. Each episode ends with the aria, uninterrupted and in full, recorded from the Met Opera stage. Aria Code is produced in partnership with WQXR, The Metropolitan Opera and WNYC Studios.

THE AVENGERS (SOUTH AFRICA)Join Now to Follow
<p>The Avengers was most certainly not a household name in South Africa prior to the radio series. With no national television service until 1976, the mechanism simply was not present in the country to show television programmes to mass audiences. While many other countries revelled in the filmed adventures of John Steed and co., South Africa was not equipped to join in the fun. The series took Britain by storm and also made a major impression in the American markets, being that greatest of rarities, a British series given a network transmission slot. However, as a filmed series (rather than a videotaped one), The Avengers was able to gain a modicum of exposure in South Africa through film rentals.</p><p>Listen to our radio station Old Time radio <a href="https://link.radioking.com/otradio" rel="nofollow">https://link.radioking.com/otradio</a></p><p>Listen to other Shows at My Classic Radio <a href="https://www.myclassicradio.net/" rel="nofollow">https://www.myclassicradio.net/</a></p><p>Patreon <a href="https://www.patreon.com/entertainment_radio" rel="nofollow">Entertainment Radio | Broadcasting Classic Radio Shows | Patreon</a></p><p>Remember that times have changed, and some shows might not reflect the standards of today’s politically correct society.
