After a bit of a blip, we're now back with an episode all about the mythology of Djinns and Genies from prehistory through to today! Part of our Three Ravens Bestiary Bonus Series, we begin with our Western conception of 'the genie' - a pantomime creature, memorably played by Robin Williams in the 90's Disney movie, filtered through a century of fairy tales and family-friendly legends. Yet, as you might expect, this slight cozy form of 'Oriental' spirit is very different to the 'Jinni' of early Semitic cultures, as discussed in a range of poetry and art, later addressed by Islamic scholars and critics informed by the entire chapter of the Qur'an dedicated to discussing desert spirits and acceptable forms of magical belief.What emerges, as we explore these distinctions, is a series of parallels, including between the 'human' and 'spirit' worlds, between Muslim and Christian discussions of Otherworldly creatures, between types of Devil, and the ways that folktales and legends enable us to see ourselves through tales of so-called monsters.It's a journey that takes us from abandoned ruins lost in Arabian dunes to the times of Geoffrey Chaucer, from Classical discussions of 'genius loci' to tales of pre-Islamic Soothsayers possessed by demons.If you've been rubbing lamps and hoping to have wishes granted then you may have been barking up the wrong tree - but worry not: we've got advice for you on magic rings, fishing, and transcendental meditations that might well enable you to commune with a Jinn.Just don't go expecting them to make all your dreams come true, as they're much more likely to ask you out on a date or hide in the form of a serpent than they are to turn your fantasies into reality... Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.CLICK HERE TO COMPLETE THE THREE RAVENS ACAST SURVEY - PLEASE DO!

Today is part 3 of our marriage series and I had the privilege of sitting down with Nicky and Sila Lee, a well-known couple from England who developed The Marriage Course - a program that's impacted couples around the world. They've been married 49 years (yes, 49 years!) and they share the small but powerful habits that have kept their love strong: praying together, saying thank you (especially for the little things) and making time for regular date nights - even after almost 5 decades of marriage! My favorite part? Watching how they laugh together. They balance each other so well, you can just tell how much they truly enjoy one another. Their wisdom is simple, practical and so encouraging. No matter what season of marriage you are in.

Elizabeth I may have been one of the most powerful rulers in history, but behind her glittering portraits was a deadly secret. To maintain her iconic "Mask of Youth," she relied on toxic cosmetics that slowly poisoned her body.

Read the full transcript here. Are we trying to maximize moment-to-moment happiness or life satisfaction? Can self-reportsreally guide policy and giving? What happens to quality of life metrics when we judge impact bywellbeing instead of health or income? How should we compare treating depression to providingclean water when their benefits feel incomparable? Do cultural norms and scale-use quirksimpact the accuracy of global happiness scores? How much do biases warp both our forecastsand our data? Is it ethical to chase the biggest happiness returns at the expense of othermeaningful interventions? Where do autonomy, agency, and justice fit if philanthropy aims toreduce suffering or maximize aggregate happiness? Can we balance scientific rigor with theirreducibly subjective nature of joy, misery, and meaning? What should donors actually do withwellbeing-based cost-effectiveness numbers in the face of uncertainty and long-run effects?

In 1642, England stood on the edge of civil war. The winter of that year was a turning point—when mistrust, division, and failed compromise finally pushed the nation toward conflict. In this episode, I speak with historian and Oxford professor Dr. Jonathan Healey, author of The Blood in Winter: England on the Brink of Civil War, 1642. We explore the causes of division, the experience of ordinary people, and the leadership struggles that drove the kingdom into chaos. Jonathan explains why this pivotal moment still resonates today and what lessons we can draw from a society on the brink.

Sometimes the most coolest moments in sport arrive by accident. When Julia Paternain crossed the finish line of the Tokyo World Championships marathon, she wasn't thinking about history and she wasn't even sure the race was over. Yet in that instant of disbelief, she had just given Uruguay its first-ever World Championships medal.In just her second marathon, the 25-year-old stunned the world with a fearless run, climbing from 15th place at halfway to finish third in 2:27:23 behind legends Tokyo Olympic champion Peres Jepchirchir of Kenya and former world record holder Tigist Assefa of Ethiopia. For a runner once who was among the last ones qualified for the championships, the bronze was unthinkable — and unforgettable.Born in Mexico, raised in England, tested in the NCAA system in the U.S., and now calling Flagstaff home, Paternain carries a layered identity but an unwavering pride of all those places. And with her medal, a nation of three million found itself on the global podium for the very first time.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠⁠Guest: Julia Paternain | @juliapaternain_ on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

From monsters to myths, this episode unpacks the Vendée with Professor Jean-Clément Martin. One of the foremost authorities on the civil war, Martin shows how factional politics transformed local unrest into a national catastrophe. We explore how chaos and rivalries drove atrocities, why the conflict cannot be defined as genocide, and why “the Terror” should be seen not as historical reality but as a political invention.

One of the heaviest chargers in big wave surfing and dryrobe ambassador, Andrew “Cotty” Cotton, joins us on The Lineup. From his roots in Devon, England, to towing some of the gnarliest waves ever ridden at Nazaré alongside legends like Garrett McNamara, Cotty has survived career-threatening injuries, epic wipeouts, and helped put Portugal's fishing village on the global big-wave map. In this episode, Cotty opens up about prepping for the Northern Hemisphere season, the evolution of equipment and safety in big-wave surfing, and the mental and physical resilience needed to tackle waves that push the limits of human performance. He reflects on his journey from plumber to professional big wave surfer, the injuries that tested him both physically and mentally, and the moments that defined his career. We also dive into his mentoring of the next generation, the role of sponsorships like dryrobe in cold-water sessions, and the balance between chasing massive surf and enjoying the simple stoke of the lineup. Plus, Cotty answers fan questions from Instagram, from his favorite waves to tips for older beginners, and even weighs in on the classic Devon vs. Cornwall cream-first debate. This episode is brought to you by dryrobe, helping surfers stay warm, dry, and ready to perform no matter how cold the water gets. Follow Cotty here.

A recap and review of the sleeper hit BBC Miniseries North & South, discussed without full details to allow for elements of surprise when watching it yourself. Based on a book written by Elizabeth Gaskell in 1855, the miniseries follows the story of a young woman moving abruptly from a picturesque existence in the South of England to an industrial town in the North. Throughout, the 2005 film adaptation of Pride & Prejudice is mentioned to highlight how the two stories, and productions, share similarities. Then, how a new version of Dracula manages to present a fresh take by focusing on the intense connection between two star-crossed lovers. After a review of what sets this next vampire iteration apart from others before it, we delve into the history of it's director and my theory about why it wasn't originally distributed in America and won't be available in those theaters until next year. Timestamp: North & South review ends, and Dracula: A Love Tale review/dive begins, at 39:41All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

It's Tuesday, September 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Pakistani flood claims 900 lives Floods in Pakistan have taken the lives of 900 people. Plus, over two million people have been displaced and 1,600 villages destroyed. The British Christian Asian Association is on the ground helping Christian communities in Pakistan now.  Make a donation through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.  Indicate in the box at the bottom of the linked page that your donation is to help the Pakistani flood victims. Trump compared Brazilian witch hunt of Bolsonaro to his trials As The Worldview reported on September 12th, Brazil's previous president, Jair Bolsonaro, was convicted of trying to overturn the 2022 election, and sentenced to 27 years in prison for it. U.S. President Donald Trump responded by comparing the ordeal with his own in 2020. He said, “I thought he was a good president of Brazil, and it's very surprising that could happen very much like they tried to do with me, but they didn't get away with it at all.” The Wall Street Journal featured a column by Mary O'Grady declaring that Brazil's courts have been turned to Lawfare — the use of the judicial system to achieve political ends.  Nepal's revolution leaves 51 dead and with new Prime Minister The nation of Nepal has been caught in a maelstrom of revolution for the past week, leaving 51 people dead, government buildings destroyed, and supermarkets and politician's homes burned to the ground, reports the BBC. The revolution was largely instigated by Gen Z, 18 to 24-year-old college-aged youth, after a social media ban. Nepal's prime minister resigned, and another was appointed — the first woman leader of the Himalayan country. The nation is relying upon Sushila Karki to restore stability.  She has promised $11,330 for each family where a protester was killed in the melee.   Similar youth-driven revolutions occurred in Sri Lanka in 2022 and Bangladesh in 2024, overturning these national governments as well. Isaiah 3:12 speaks of the instability of nations in similar terms. It says, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” The nations of the world which have appointed or elected the most female leaders since 1946 are Finland, India, New Zealand, and England. The average number of nations led by female heads hovered around 6 in the 1990s and early 2000s. Today, the average has increased to 15 female leaders.  Utah Gov.: Kirk's murderer was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology” Utah Republican Governor Spencer Cox has announced on CNN's State of the Union that official charges will be filed today against Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson. The governor also said, “The FBI has confirmed that [Robinson's] roommate was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to female.”  Cox added that evidence from family and friends is pointing to the fact that the alleged murderer had been “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” Romans 1:28 and 29 speaks of the progression of evil: “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder.” Tyler Robinson's trans roommate “hates conservatives and Christians” Fox News has also reported that Robinson's 22-year-old “trans roommate” "hates conservatives and Christians.” That according to an interview with a relative on Fox. The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital her relative began to act differently when he turned 18 and said that he developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives. She explained that “He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized. … He has obviously gotten progressively worse the last year or two.” Transgenderism on the rise Transgenderism has increased across the United States — with 1.6% of American adults claiming to be such. That's four million Americans!   Pew Research estimates that 44% of Americans know somebody who is attempting to appear to change their own gender. The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland attempted the first gender mutilations back in 1966. The program was shut down in 1979. Then again, in 1997, the practice was reinstated by a Dr. Stanley Biber in Trinidad, Colorado. Biber's clinic became the gender mutilation capital of the country until the surgeon's retirement in 2003. These are the roots of the movement in America. Gold and stocks hit new highs Gold is reaching for new highs — scraping $3,670 per ounce on Monday. Silver reached $42.60 per ounce. That's up 41% and 38% respectively over the previous year. Stocks are up similarly. The NASDAQ reached 22,340 points yesterday, a 27% increase over last year. Meanwhile, the median house selling price has dropped a total of 7% since late 2022. Teen reels in 177-pound Halibut And finally, 13-year-old Jackson Denio of New Hampshire reeled in a 177-pound Atlantic Halibut  off the New England coast last week. That could be a world record for a youth catch. After wrestling with the fish for a half an hour on the line, it took three men to get the monster in the boat. DENIO: “It took the three deckhands and the captain to get it in the boat, and then, once it was in the boat, everybody was just yelling and cheering. FRIEND: “Jackson! Whoo!” The largest halibut on record weighed 515 pounds, caught in Alaska in 1996.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, September 16th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Bitcoin to $200K & Ethereum to $15K? The broader crypto market is back in the spotlight as big names and institutions make bold moves. Fundstrat's Tom Lee predicts “monster gains” for BTC and ETH if the Fed delivers rate cuts, while Mike Novogratz doubles down on his long-term Bitcoin bullishness. Meanwhile, PayPal is expanding crypto payments and peer-to-peer transfers, signaling a push toward mainstream adoption. On the regulatory front, the Bank of England is considering a cap on stablecoin use, and U.S. lawmakers are meeting with crypto executives to discuss President Trump's proposed Bitcoin reserve. With market volatility rising and global policy shifts underway, the question is clear: are we on the verge of the next big rally or a new era of regulation?

"I was initially very skeptical about embarking on a full life biography of anyone, let alone a figure as big as Zbig."Edward Luce is talking about President Carter's former national security advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski. Mr. Luce is the Financial Times' chief commentator and columnist. Luce is a native of Sussex, England, and has spent close to 20 years in the United States since the mid-90s. He is an Oxford grad. Zbigniew Brzezinski was born in Warsaw, Poland, got his PhD at Harvard, and spent time in Canada during the time his father was posted as police council general in Montreal. Brzezinski was national security advisor from 1977 to 1981. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week the American photographer Barbara Nitke whose life has taken her from hardcore porn sets to the BDSM world and to the fashion world as her art evolves. She is as ambitious as ever expanding her many talents to currently producing her own movie American Ecstasy, which is projected to begin filming in 2026. As a vibrant septuagenarian, Barbara has widened her aperture across a career that began in the porn theaters of the 80s where she was tasked to screen more than 100 films; to the high art of the fashion industry in the reality TV show Project Runway, which she shot for 18 seasons.  Barbara was born in Lynchburg, VA in 1950 the eldest of three children to Eloise “Vicky” Smiley Gregory, a meteorologist who worked for 30 years at the National Weather Service, and Paul Gervase Gregory, Jr., a WWII veteran and air traffic controller. Barbara has a younger brother, Gary Gregory, a software developer, and sister Mary Jane Gregory, a glass artist. She describes her childhood as unhappy and rebellious, constantly seeking her own independence. It was 1967 before her father disclosed an earlier marriage to the family and in 1987 she discovered that the author and sex researcher Shere Hite was her half-sister. Barbara's family moved across the country when she was a child from Virginia to Alaska, which meant she attended a variety of schools. For college Barbara made her way to New York to study business, literature and writing at Baruch College, and photography at the International Center for Photography and School of Visual Arts. In her late 20's she started photographing professionally and in1982, she says she found her subject on a porn set when she was given full access to be creative. Her first marriage to Herb Nitke lasted 13 years and gave her opportunities to develop her photographic skills in an unlikely world.  Among her many credits are Hustlers, 2019, Monsterland, 2020, The Equalizer, 2021, The Gilded Age, 2023, Smile, 2024 and Project Runway - 225 episodes from 2004-2021. Barbara's work has been exhibited internationally at venues including Storage APT, New York; the Hartnett Gallery at University of Rochester; One Eyed Jacks Gallery, Brighton, England; and Barristers, New Orleans. She is included in the permanent collections of the Kinsey Institute, the Finnish Museum of Photography, the Leslie-Lohman Museum, and others. Her images have been the subject of articles in numerous venues, including Office Magazine, Forbes, Dazed, Slate, Vice, Harper's Magazine, and The New York Times. Barbara is married to Kenneth Wyban an Army Veteran and the couple divide their time between New York City and Ohio.Barbara's links: https://www.barbaranitke.com/https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0632987/https://www.instagram.com/barbaranitke/ Some of Barbara's favorite female artists:Mary Ellen MarkDiane ArbusSally MannCindy ShermanMarilyn Minter Host: Chris StaffordProduced by Hollowell StudiosFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramAART on FacebookEmail: theaartpodcast@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wisp--4769409/support.

In the summer of 1977, single mother Margaret Hodgson called the police to her council estate apartment in Enfield, London to report that she and her two daughters, Janet and Peggy, had seen furniture move in the apartment and were hearing strange noises coming from within the walls. That simple albeit unusual call set in motion a chain of events that would thrust the unassuming Hodgson family into the center of a debate about the existence of the supernatural and forever associate them with one of England's most notorious paranormal cases, the Enfield poltergeist.Over the course of roughly eighteen months, the family claimed they were subjected to a variety of supernatural harassment that ranged from moving furniture and knocking in the walls to disembodied voices and even involuntary levitation. Soon after the report was made to the police, the story attracted a variety of news outlets and paranormal investigators, all determined to either prove the case a genuine poltergeist or a hoax perpetrated by two adolescent attention-seeking girls.Nearly fifty years later, the case remains controversial among skeptics and believers, all of whom want to know what exactly did happen in the Hodgson's apartment and who—or what—is to blame for the disturbances.Thank you to the Amazing Dave White (of BRING ME THE AXE PODCAST) for research and writing assistance! ReferencesAmin, Meghna. 2022.
