A visually incoherent site (a consequence of downloading text direct from other sites) which brings together an impressive amount of information from numerous sources documenting the life and work of the Irish playwright and novelist. The site lists online texts, literature festivals and events, reviews, articles, and other websites and blogs devoted to Beckett. There are audio and film and television sections which indicate when a recording or broadcast is available commercially on CD or DVD (a warning that these are not always up to date) The site also records material available in other countries and in other languages. A small number of titles are streamed.

The Shakespeare Underground is a podcast series that examines the works and life of William Shakespeare, and explores why there has been doubt about the authorship of the plays, sonnets, and other poems. Titles include The Law in Hamlet - attorney Tom Regnier argues that can the intricacies of Elizabethan Law shed new light on the tragedy, and The Comedy of Othello in which Oxfordian Richard Whalen argues that the play is influenced by Commedia dell’Arte.
