Podcasts about auld reekie

For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali spoke to writer and journalist Alan Taylor to talk about this latest book, Edinburgh: The Autobiography, which is published with Birlinn Books. Following on from 2016's Glasgow: The Autobiography, Alan talks about why the time was right for Edinburgh to get similar treatment (its publication coincides with the city's 900th anniversary), the format of the book, the research required, trying to maintain balance in terms of themes and subjects, and goes into detail about just some of the people who, and the places and events which, would shape Scotland's capital, especially its literary legacy. The two also discuss the impact of two periods in particular, namely The Enlightenment and all things Edinburgh Festival, looking at the incidents which fired both, and how they came to change perceptions of the city both at home and abroad. A conversation with Alan Taylor is always entertaining and educational, and an absolute pleasure, and, as a proud Glaswegian with an undying fondness for Edinburgh, it was fascinating to not only read the book (a review of which will be in the next SNACK magazine) but to be able to discuss it with the Editor himself. If you thought you knew Auld Reekie, think again. Full details, including all the ways to listen, are over at scotswhayhae.com

Gyles' poem this week was ‘The Land of Nod' by 'Robert Louis Stevenson' From breakfast on through all the day At home among my friends I stay, But every night I go abroad Afar into the land of Nod. All by myself I have to go, With none to tell me what to do — All alone beside the streams And up the mountain-sides of dreams. The strangest things are there for me, Both things to eat and things to see, And many frightening sights abroad Till morning in the land of Nod. Try as I like to find the way, I never can get back by day, Nor can remember plain and clear The curious music that I hear.

This week we look at some myths and legends about Scotland's capital city Edinburgh or "Auld Reekie" as it's known, rival to Glasgow. Come join us and hae a laugh. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When you walk through Edinburgh, some parts may look familiar. Many places in Scotland's capital inspired the British author J.K. Rowling in writing her books about the young wizard.

In this episode, Annie and Jenny continue their exploration of the women found in the margins of the Scottish Mountaineering Club Journal. It's Edinburgh in the early 1900s, and a climbing expedition up the Salisbury Crags is derailed when the public notice that there are women climbing alongside the men. Determined, the women keep climbing, but are forced to the edges of the day. This is the beginnings of The Scottish Ladies Climbing Club, founded by Jane Inglis Clark. Jane was the definition of trailblazing and believed that everyone, regardless of gender, deserved to explore the outdoors. The geologic significance of the Salisbury Crags as well as the ancient mythology swirling around Arthur's seat are uncovered in this trip to Auld Reekie. This is the second episode of our new series, Radical Mountain Women, funded by the Royal Society of Literature, and is inspired by the writing of the Scottish Mountaineering Journal. Some of the music you heard in this episode was beautifully played by Nicky Murray and Chloe Rodgers.

In this gritty crime thriller, Detective Sergeant John Rebus makes his literary debut. Ian Rankin draws on rich material from the city of Edinburgh and his native Scotland in sculpting his protagonist's first adventure. From the dank alleyways of Auld Reekie to the spirited influence of Stevenson's "Jekyll and Hyde", Rankin works hard with his first Rebus novel to establish an immersive world of conflict and consequence.

Welcome back Creeps!!! Dulce tells us a few more of her favourite execution methods and then Adam gives us a history lesson on Edinburgh before they start reminiscing and telling their own personal experiences of Auld Reekie (which is apparently a nickname for Edinburgh)

This week prepare yourself for the ultimate in Choose Your Own Adventures. Come with us to Edinburgh in the summer of 1645 to learn a little more about the Auld Reekie's last battle with the bubonic plague. Joining us for the ride today is our wonderful first podcast guest, vegan instagrammer, Sarah Welch.

To keep this spooky train rolling, we’re chugging on up to Auld Reekie for the supernatural event of the season. This week, Morgan and Isabeau crash a party with a selection from The Monster Ball Year 2, an anthology of works imagining that self same soiree, titled “Turning The Tides” by Wendy Higgins. In this telling, a malevolent beast known as the Magpie is throwing the Ball, and this once who’s who of the otherworldly has taken a sinister turn. Our heroine is Ada, a selkie (for brevity: shapeshifting seal people of yore), who in order to return to the sea, must retrieve her pelt from among the patchwork monstrosity adorning the Magpie. But with a little help from a dryad and a conniving necromancer, Ada just might get her wish. What makes for a memorable party? Is good sex just attentive sex? How young is too young for necromancy? Dust off your best frocks y’all - it’s game time. Whoa!mance is a part of the Frolic Podcast Network.

Prepare yourself for three more twisted stories from the Auld Reekie. Here at Wandering Eye Curios we enjoy a tale or two of the macabre and none are quite so dark and strange as those from Edinburgh. Unravel for yourself the mystery of the Arthur's Seat coffins, the horrors of the Queensberry House Cannibal and the spectral figure of Maj. Thomas Weir.

It's our second episode on Edinburgh but this time, we are talking to Richard, an Englishman who made his way up to Auld Reekie and never left. What was hotel management life like? What mandate to public spaces have towards artists? What makes Edinburgh such a beautiful place to live?To find out more about Richard's work:-visit artrac.co.uk-visiting the arts and crafts collective in Causewayside, EdinburghFind out more about Island Life Productions and our work by:-liking our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/islandlifeproductions/-checking out our website at www.islandlifeproductions.com

Back in the day, the Romans conquered Scottish territory only to decide it was too cold and too barbaric to govern. Their loss. Today, Scotland is renowned for its rugged beauty, dark medieval history and rebellious nature, luring millions of visitors each year. We're exploring the capital city of Edinburgh: a striking cityscape with both architectural elegance and dramatic, rolling hills. This time we're joined by two local guides, Colin Mairs (Excursion Scotland) and Sabela (Weekend Student Adventures), to share about Scotch whisky, Harry Potter inspirations, legends of Edinburgh's chilling past, and key highlights you can only experience in "Auld Reekie". (Season 1 finale)

With Valentine's Day almost here, thoughts of chocolate will certainly be on the minds of some whisky lovers...whether it's for themselves or for that special person. We'll get some tips on pairing whiskies with chocolates from Sage Friedman of Chocolat Michel Kluizel in New York City. In the news, Irish distillers go to court over a Russian whiskey deal, The Glenrothes releases a new vintage, Duncan Taylor adds a new version of Auld Reekie, and if the Mutter Bowmore isn't the world's oldest whisky...a bottle in a New Zealand museum just might be.
