In Jungle Book Reimagined, the celebrated choreographer Akram Khan brings Rudyard Kipling's classic and contested Jungle Book stories into a near-future world torn apart by the impacts of climate change. But with the original stories rooted in colonial perspectives, why revisit them a century later to tell a story of displacement amid environmental collapse?

Also, the role of Brünnhilde in Wagner's Ring Cycle is one of opera's most demanding. It requires a dramatic soprano voice with extraordinary power and maturity and is rarely tackled until a singer is well into their career. To learn more, we're joined by our ABC Top 5 resident, mezzo soprano Katrina Waters, who is investigating the mid-career transitions of female dramatic voices.

If, By: Rudyard Kipling

 If you can keep your head when all about you   
 Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;   
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
 And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

 If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;   
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
 And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

 If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,   
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

 If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

Poems are green and Poetry is mean.
-Poetry Beast

Please accept my endless gratitude,
I'm tickled pink,
You're a gift!
Thank you for your time and attention.
It's a blessing you've stopped to observe and listen.

Debates around what’s traditional or authentic are constantly spinning in the culinary world— so much so that numerous organizations have been formed to protect the authenticity of various dishes and production methods. In Mezcal’s case, there is an organization whose name translates to The Mexican Regulatory Council for the Quality of Mezcal. The stated purpose of this group, and others like it, is to uphold quality through strict regulations and guidelines. But how do these regulations potentially push people out?

This week on Meat and Three, we’re unpacking the meaning of authenticity in the culinary world. We explore the pressure authenticity can have on individuals and how there may be more than one “right” version of the way to cook a dish.

Hello to you listening in Casablanca, Morocco!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

I’ve been thinking about the risk I took last week to interrupt our usual broadcast to tell you Rudyard Kipling’s story, The Cat That Walked by Herself, in 5 parts. In case you missed it here is the link to Part 1 and the subsequent episodes.

Listeners responded with delight, insights and unexpected observations: “It's addictive! Perspective shifted. I imagined entrepreneurs as the cat who think they have to "go it alone."  Something magical happened when the cat was willing to continue "negotiating" with the woman. They both benefited.” [Lynn Miller]

Listeners discovered problem solving; imagination; curiosity; language; “the music of the spoken word;” sharing with friends and family; contemplation; reflection; mystery; an awareness that “We each play a role in life. To coexist in harmony requires kindness, respect, community.” [Lesley Osborn]

A story stops us and says, “Here... Now. . . please listen. . . while I tell you a story. . . weave a tale wherein some truth may lie . . .that you may reflect and realize and share what I have learned. And then to pass it on.” [Alan Culler]

Yes, that’s the sorcery of story. Suitable for all dimensions of business and living both. The risk paid off!

Question: How do you know when a risk has paid off?

This week, we again bring you three Tales in one - three of Rudyard Kipling's 'Just So' stories. Kipling used to tell these fanciful origin stories to his daughter every night, and she would insist that he told them each time in the same way, 'just so.'  We have already heard about the camel, the whale and the rhinoceros; after these three there will be another six we may come back to, but for now, let us hear 'The Elephant's Child', 'The Sing-Song of Old Man Kangaroo' and 'The Beginning of the Armadillos'.

Django Nudo and the Smut Peddler celebrate the first #CultpixIRL cinema screening this past week at Bio Aspen, the groovy new retro cinema in Stockholm's new hipster district.  It was a double bill of "Anita - Swedish Nymphet" (1973) and "Kyrkoherden / The Lustful Vicar" (1970), both beautifully restored by the Swedish Film Institute. Guest of honour was Christina 'Anita' Lindberg herself and the authors of the book 'Frigjorda Tider' ('Liberated Times'), who talked about the period when these films were released, a time when "porn became culture and culture became porn."

Sticking with the theme of culture and porn, DN and SP discuss the Cultpix Theme Week of Literally Erotic Women. Adapting classics of literature for provided good plots, a veneer of highbrow credibility and - best of all - they were out of copyright and the authors were too dead to complain about having their works adapted with lots of boobs, bums and other bits.

Chief amongst these literary smut auteurs was Mac Ahlberg, who as Bert Torn, directed six literary adaptations that can be streamed on Cultpix now, including John Cleland's "Fanny Hill" (1968) and "Jorden runt med Fanny Hill / Around the World With Fanny Hill" (1974); Anonymous' "Flossie" (1974); Marqis de Sade's "Justine & Juliette" (1975); Daniel Defoe's Moll Flanders adaptation "Molly" (1977, aka "Sex in Sweden") and Guy de Maupassant's "Bel Ami" (1977).We discuss the stars who appeared in many of these, including the lovely Maria Forså (who apparently didn't fake it), Harry Reems and how he ended up in Sweden, the on-stage sex real life couple Jack and Kim Frank, plus the director Torgny Wickman, who insisted " on painting every clit a little pinker immediately before each take.’"

There is also the early US nudie cutie "Kipling's Women" (1961), which was said to be based on "A Picturization of Rudyard Kipling's Immortal Poem---The Ladies," with the priceless tagline 'They Wear Only the Wind!'. And to prevent projectionists from cutting out the nudie bits of the 35mm prints, you could send of for free photos of the six lovely ladies in questions. Finally there is also the Austro-Hungarian turn-of-the-century smut classic Josephine Mutzenbacher, with two of the dozen adaptations available on Cultpix: "Naughty Knickers/Josefine Mutzenbacher" (1970) and "Don't Get Your Knickers in a Twist/Josefine Mutzenbacher II - Meine 365 Liebhaber" (1971). Many of these films are available too in multiple English, French, German and Swedish dub. So you can not only refine your cultural credentials, but also your linguistic one, by watching these films. Just like you used to read Playboy for the articles. 

Soon-to-be-Grandma Carla talks about the impact that newly audible heartbeat. Ken shares his PICK ONE decision and 2022 plan. Val Demings, Michael Garcia and Tim Ryan get honorable mention in the context of the high stakes of the coming mid-term elections. The Southern Baptist Convention wraps up this week with a high profile in the national news - largely representative of the white evangelical influence on public policy. CRT (race) and sexual abuse are on the ballot. Carla comments on the founding of the SBC in 1844-45, quoting long time friend, historian Mark Noll. To our surprise, this week, the SBC conference elected a "moderate," Rev. Ed Litton. A seminary professor challenges Ken to be "disruptive." President Joe Biden visits the Queen at the Windsor Palace and European leaders for the G7 gathering. Carla leaves us with a visit to her "happy place" ... a lovely local garden where she finds restoration and a neighbor who reminds her of the goodness of the American people. Ken recites from Rudyard Kipling.

Dan sings a song of letting go, a song of loyalty, and a song of love in the time of pandemic.  Fio Hicks reads a poem from Wendell Berry called Seventeen Years and the epic poem IF by Rudyard Kipling.  www.danlyth.com www.laymedownpodcast.com
