Fish On Fish Off

Stephen Sautner

Author and master storyteller Stephen Sautner narrates this special immersive audio edition of his modern angling classic complete with music and ambient sound. Through a series of 50 personal essays, each of which worthy of its own podcast, Fish On, Fish Off explores what happens when the self-taught, DIY angler sets out to fish the world–and winds up stumbling into every possible pitfall and danger along the way. These include: getting chased from a river by an elephant, surviving a terrifying helicopter ride over the Straits of Magellan, and breaking his only rod on the second cast in Cuba’s Bay of Pigs. Closer to home, he is swept off a jetty by a rogue wave, winds up in an emergency room more than once with fishing lures hanging from various parts of his anatomy, and perhaps most daunting, surviving 30 years of the scrum better known as opening day of trout season in his crowded home state of New Jersey. These stories of heartbreak, terror, and triumph transcend beyond fishing, and make for excellent listening for angler and non-angler alike.

Dunkirk - The Ultimate Trivia...

Film Trivia Metaverse

DUNKIRK 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
Dunkirk is a 2017 war film directed by Christopher Nolan that portrays the intense Dunkirk evacuation during World War II. The story unfolds from three perspectives: land, sea, and air. On the beach, thousands of Allied soldiers face the imminent threat of German forces while awaiting rescue. Civilians, represented by a boat owner named Dawson, cross the English Channel to assist in the evacuation. In the sky, RAF pilots engage in fierce aerial combat to protect the evacuation efforts. The film emphasizes suspense, survival, and the human experience of war, with minimal dialogue and a heavy focus on visual storytelling. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“The end credits mention that twelve of the original "little ships" that participated in the Dunkirk evacuation are depicted in the film, reenacting their role from 1940.” 
  
“The ticking sounds featured prominently in Hans Zimmer's score were recorded by the composer using one of Christopher Nolan's own pocket watches. These sounds were then manipulated with synthesizers for the film's soundtrack.” 
  
“Despite the constant presence of German bombers and shooters, German soldiers are never directly shown in the film. They only appear out of focus and in shadows in the final scenes.”
