Launched in 2005, this is now a weekly film podcast and radio program from Chicago hosted by Adam Kempenaar and Josh Larsen. The show starts with a review of a recently released film, followed by listeners’ feedback and then the segment "Massacre Theater", which is a weekly contest that has the hosts performing short scenes of dialogue from various films, with a prize going to one listener who correctly guesses which film it was from. The show ends with the "Top Five" section, which sees each host picking their top five movies that pertain to a certain topic for the week. Episodes available go back to 2012 and can be accessed under the Show Archive section; there is also a Marathons section, where the hosts review six to eight films from a particular genre or director, and a Lists space which groups films under, among others, Top 5, To 20 of the 2000-2009 decade, Top 10s and Year-by-Year lists.

Available via iTunes, Spotify and Acast.

This is a unique database of poems written in response to the Lancashire Cotton Famine of 1861-65. Many of the poems are by the mill workers most affected by the famine and are written in the Lancashire dialect. The poems, published by the local newspapers of that time, are presented here with a commentary, audio recitations and musical performances which draw directly from them. This is an ongoing project of special interest for literary scholars and historians. There are some 100 poems collated so far, of which some are of a high quality, according to Dr Simon Rennie. For example, a Work, Lads, and Think by wool sorter Williffe Cunliam. The database can be searched by date, publisher and place of publication.
