8.2 million working-age people report having a long-term health condition that limits their ability to work. 1.7 million say that work itself is making them ill or creating challenges. In addition to causing personal hardships, this decline in working-age health is causing concern among employers, politicians and policymakers.  With the benefits bill rising, government has set its sights on wide-ranging welfare reforms, including significant changes to health and disability benefits. Are these reforms likely to incentivise and support people back into work? And how can the system intervene earlier and support employers to provide people with the flexibility they need to stay in work in the first place?  To discuss, our Chief Executive Jennifer Dixon is joined by: Jon Ashworth, Chief Executive of Labour Together and former shadow Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and for Work and Pensions.

Today, Samuel joins Betsy to talk about his debut novel, The Death and Life of August Sweeney. This captivating story took five years to bring to life and is deeply rooted in immersive research. Samuel shares how he worked in Michelin-starred kitchens and spent years studying clinical pathology, even assisting with autopsies, to bring authenticity to his characters.The book follows August Sweeney, a larger-than-life celebrity chef who insists on being autopsied by a specific pathologist, Dr. Maya Zhu. In their conversation, Betsy and Samuel explore the intense world of high-end kitchens, the stress that especially affects women in the culinary and medical fields, and what Dr. Zhu uncovers—not just about August's body, but also about herself.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/chatting-with-betsy--4211847/support.

We speak with writer Samuel Ashworth about his novel "The Life and Death of August Sweeney." The title character is a famous (and infamous) TV chef .... the other main character is the doctor who is performing his autopsy and seeking to learn more about how he died- and, more importantly, how he lived. The story lines of these two character intersect in remarkable fashion- and along the way, we learn a great deal about the world of fine cuisine as well as the work done by forensic pathologists. Ashworth is an award-winning writer, screenwriter, and professor of creative writing.

Reinvention often stirs up a storm—self-doubt, not-enoughness, the old habits of perfectionism and overworking. We think we have to earn our way out of stuckness. But what if the answer wasn't in doing more—but in needing less? What if your enoughness was right there in plain sight, but you've been looking for it in the wrong places? This week, I'm joined by the glorious Donna Ashworth: poet, best-selling author, and queen of reinvention. She's been a music industry exec, a magazine journalist, a business owner (of a children's play centre) —and through each chapter, she's rewritten what it means to feel enough. By using her poet's eye, Donna has mastered the art of being easily pleased—finding beauty in the ordinary, and joy in the small. And in doing so, she's removed the pressure to get reinvention “right.” If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or like it's too late to start over… this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.   Links Donna Ashworth's website & books Donna Ashworth on Instagram Mandy Lehto on Instagram Julia Baird episode  

Legendary chef August Sweeney has servedhis final meal, collapsing in the middle of service in the very restaurant he built to secure his legacy. When Dr. Maya Zhu, a guarded, intense autopsist, is summoned to investigate, she discovers she must operate under strict conditions Sweeney himself dictated before he died. As she digs deeper into his immense body, everything that can go wrong does, because August Sweeney isn't about to let a little thing like death stop him from raisinghell. August was a man whose glorious appetite for excess led him from the bowels of greasy spoons to the towering heights ofculinary stardom, before bringing him crashing back down to earth. Maya is a doctor who has always believed that her success—even her survival—required her to become a human scalpel: sharp and solitary. The moment Maya meets August,dead on her dissection table, it sets off a chain reaction that will change her life—and his death—forever.SAMUEL ASHWORTH is a professor of creative writing at George Washington University and a former columnist at The Rumpus.

Matt Crawford speaks with author Samuel Ashworth about his book, The Death and Life of August Sweeney: A Novel.  Legendary chef August Sweeney has served his final meal, dying in the middle of service in the very restaurant he built to secure his legacy. When Dr. Maya Zhu, a guarded, intense autopsist, is summoned to investigate, she discovers she must operate under strict conditions Sweeney himself dictated before he died. As she digs deeper into his immense body, everything that can go wrong, does, because August Sweeney isn't about to let a little thing like death stop him from raising hell.The Death and Life of August Sweeney finds two people drawn together across the barrier of death. In her ruthless drive to excel as a doctor, Zhu has walled herself off from almost everything. As she dissects Sweeney, teasing out the mysteries hidden in his body, she begins to understand that she is doing an autopsy on her counterpoint: an equally ruthless artist who made excess his muse. As she obsesses over what happened to Sweeney under the strangest conditions of her career, her life– and August' s death– will never be the same.An epic novel about life, death, and the worlds in between, The Death and Life of August Sweeney examines what it means to be driven, to be famous, and to be alive. A true book of the body, the author spent years researching clinical pathology and fine dining alike, spending weeks observing autopsies and working as a stagiaire in a Michelin-starred kitchen.

The Spectator's Katy Balls, Michael Gove and Kate Andrews were joined by special guests Robert Jenrick and Jonathan Ashworth for a live podcast, recorded at the Emmanuel Centre in Westminster. The main topic of discussion is, of course, Donald Trump, whose inauguration has ushered in a new world disorder. His ‘shock and awe' foreign policy has sent Europe scrambling as it tries to work out who will be responsible for ensuring its security in the future. We have seen a move away from the idealism that has defined foreign policy in the last decade and towards ‘realism', with countries committing to boots on the ground and greater defence spending. Are Labour right to increase their defence pledge? Is Kemi Badenoch being energetic enough in holding the government to account – not just on its foreign policy, but on its record in government so far? And – closer to home – how worried are the Tories about the rise of Reform? This discussion was originally recorded on Wednesday 26 February.

Do you dream of pivoting your career or lifestyle later in life? Poet Donna Ashworth did just that. She began to question the busy, fast-paced, perfectionist lifestyle she assumed was the norm, and decided to start posting and performing her beautiful poetry in her 40s... In this chat with Fearne, Donna explains how she copes with the nerves that come with doing something so new, including hypnotherapy and simply admitting out loud that she's anxious. She also reflects on how she realised she'd been living with depression and eating disorders for a long time. If you're not happy it's up to you to apply change or you can't expect different outcomes. Donna talks through how to work out if your routine is deliciously comforting for you, or if it's become a strait-jacket that's holding you back. Plus, she shares why it's helpful for others if you're able to disclose your own ugly truths and flaws. Donna's latest book of poetry, To The Women, is out on the 13th of February.

After a tumultuous, albeit entirely precedented, weekend at Manchester United football club we break down two huge exclusives involving the team. On Sunday The Athletic's David Ornstein, Adam Crafton, and Laurie Whitwell combined to reveal that Sporting Director Dan Ashworth would leave after just five months in the job. Meanwhile, Andy Mitten published a lengthy and wide-ranging conversation with club minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. We also take time, as everyone at Old Trafford did before the defeat to Nottingham Forest, to share tributes to the club's longest-serving staff member (perhaps ever), the much-loved Kath Phipps.

EMPEROR AGRIPPINA THE YOUNGER WAS THE DREAM:  3/8:: Nero: Matricide, Music, and Murder in Imperial Rome by  Anthony Everitt  (Author), Roddy Ashworth  (Author) https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/sunspot-update-after-going-through-the-roof-last-month-sunspots-drop-into-the-attic-this-month/ There are many infamous stories about the Roman emperor Nero: He set fire to Rome and thrummed his lyre as it burned. Cruel, vain, and incompetent, he then cleared the charred ruins and built a vast palace. He committed incest with his mother, who had schemed and killed to place him on the throne, and later murdered her. Nero has long been the very image of a bad ruler, a legacy left behind by the historians of his day, who despised him. But there is a mystery. For a long time after his death, anonymous hands laid flowers on his grave. The monster was loved. In this nuanced biography, Anthony Everitt, the celebrated biographer of classical Greece and Rome, and investigative journalist Roddy Ashworth reveal the contradictions inherent in Nero and offer a reappraisal of his life. Contrary to popular memory, the empire was well managed during his reign. He presided over diplomatic triumphs and Rome's epic conquest of Britain and British queen Boudica's doomed revolt against Nero's legions. He was also a champion of arts and culture who loved music, and he won the loyalty of the lower classes with fantastic spectacles. He did not set fire to Rome. 1876 Nero
