Ivanhoe Game
link
Built as a WordPress Theme, Ivanhoe is simple to install and easy to learn and use. Rather than have students in your course on Gothic fiction write a paper after reading Dracula, why not have them assume their theoretical stances in the forms of roles and experiment with them — and thus better develop them — by playing an Ivanhoe Game on the novel first? Give your game a title and description/prompt, and you’re ready to go! Even create rules for your game if you like — although none are required! Ivanhoe can be played in any discipline, with a variety of media, and with players of all ages and educational backgrounds. Players develop roles related to any topic and then make comments from their assumed roles. The applications are endless. See the following Praxis Fellows’ posts for Ivanhoe game ideas: “All systems go! (we think),” “Call for Ivanhoe Testers!,” and “A review of the suffragette game.”

Desert Island Discs is a BBC radio programme that was first aired in 1942.
It has a somewhat unusual take on the regular celebrity interview format in that each guest is asked to select eight what was then called 'gramophone records' to take with them to a desert island and then invited to talk about what each piece of music meant to them.
