Taboo - Episode 2 ...
-Does Zilpha still love Delaney (in a sexual way)? There was only one brief scene between the half-siblings this episode, but it certainly seemed to suggest that Zilpha is still in love with Delaney, Chaplin was able to convey it with the look in her eyes.
Taboo - Episode 2 ...
This episode made me think of Delaney as a 19th century version of Clint Eastwood's "Man With No Name" character from his spaghetti western days, assembling a team of slimy minions to do his bidding, setting one faction against the other.
Taboo is a BBC television drama series produced by Scott Free London and Hardy Son & Baker. It premiered on BBC One in the United Kingdom, on 7 January 2017 and on FX in the United States, on 10 January 2017. The eight-episode series was created by Steven Knight, Tom Hardy, and his father, Chips Hardy, based on a story written by Tom and Chips Hardy.
Taboo was created by Steven Knight, Tom Hardy and his father, Edward "Chips" Hardy, and is based on a story written by Tom and Chips Hardy.[2] Knight and Tom Hardy previously worked together in the 2013 film Locke and the TV series Peaky Blinders, which premiered in 2013.[3] The first series was directed by Kristoffer Nyholm and Anders Engström.[3] The music was composed by Max Richter.[4] Steven Knight plans for two more series.[5] Taboo was renewed for a second series in March 2017.[6] In November 2021, Knight confirmed that six of season two's eight planned episodes had been written, and the start of filming is contingent upon Hardy's schedule.[7] In May 2022, Knight earmarked the end of 2023 as a potential filming start date.[8]
Once the vision of the woman in the water concludes we get hit with a moment of a knife that seems to be the exact one used by the assassin at the end of the episode, which suggest Delaney has some ability to see into the future.
The first episode left a few threads dangling, including the truth about James' mysterious exodus to Africa, the dynamics of his relationship with sister Zilpha, the strange appearance of an apparent third sibling, a boy much younger than James or Zilpha, and much, much more. But while we ponder, here are some means to distract yourself in advance of this Saturday's episode.
Also worth a listen before episode two rolls around is this week's Distraction Pieces podcast, which sees host Scroobius Pip, a spoken word poet and actor, converse with former rugby league player Rob Parker about their experiences working on Taboo. Both men play members of Atticus's gang of smugglers, though Pip has revealed that he was gradually given more to do as the series went on.
The second episode of Yeh Dil Mera adds more to our curiosity, while also giving a hint about how the plot may shape up in future. Here is my review for the same. Please read the review of first episode.
The episode started off by introducing us to our four competitors: Ryan, who hosts "a podcast on taboo issues" and says they don't care about offending other people with their brutal honesty; Stephanie, who says she's looking for some adventure and to not live with regrets; Andrew, an athlete whose lived in vehicles for the last several years; and Alissa, a former beauty queen who currently acts as a musician.
In an episode that explores a central religious taboo and pushes the boundaries of what many might deem acceptable within Jewish tradition, we ask whether Cat Stevens was on to something when he sang that the "first cut is the deepest." Zev Levi scored and sound-designed the episode with music from Blue Dot Sessions. Sela Waisblum created the mix. The end song, Bidyuk Kmo SheAni ("As I Am"), was written and arranged by Ravid Plotnik (Nechi Nech) and Shai Or, and performed by Plotnik.

Welcome to part 2 of my interview with Gabriel Rossman, Associate Professor of Sociology at UCLA, and co-host, UVA Law 3L Autumn Adams-Jack. We continue our discussion of sex, drugs, and Islamic finance, among other taboo trades.
Want to buy sex, bribe a politician, or get your dumb kid into an Ivy League school? I discuss how to get away with taboo trades with Gabriel Rossman, an Associate Professor of Sociology at UCLA, and my co-host, UVA Law 3L Autumn Adams-Jack.
I've posted a new episode of the Taboo Trades podcast, this one featuring Pat Oglesby of the Center for New Revenue discussing marijuana legalization. From the show summary: "Pat discusses marijuana legalization and disses on the tax academe"
You should definitely ease your election anxiety by listening to me and Christian Turner of the University of Georgia School of Law argue about why people have sex in the latest episode of the Taboo Trades podcast: "Market Segregation (& Football!) with Christian Turner." There's even some discussion of football, so there's something to satisfy everyone. (Okay, European football, but whatevs).
In this final act, Chris, Steven, Burcu, and myself, share the things that helped us and are helping us navigate academia as first generation students. But though not all things that work for us will work for all first gens, we hope that those who are listening recognize the plight first gens go through in graduate programs. And if you are a first generation yourself, we hope that this episode, particularly this act, reminds you that you are not alone. Maybe some first gens who are listening to this are going through it, are probably doubting themselves. What message do you have for first generation students who may be listening to this, and considering grad school or in graduate school right now?
This was a wonderful discussion on situating our work within the international sphere, especially as graduate students conducting interdisciplinary work. That will be the end of this episode of PhD and Me: The Third Degree. Thank you all for listening to our stories of the tensions between socio-politico-cultural aspects of international research, the moral implications of privilege and equity, and time consuming and often frustrating elements of the bureaucracy of international work. Good-bye. 041b061a72
