Rebecca Lucy Taylor, AKA Self Esteem talks to Vick about pushing back against the male gaze, the healing power of her art and how to carry on as a female music artist in your 40s. Rebecca is one of the UK's most exciting breakout musical stars of the past decade. Performing as Self Esteem, she rose from cult favourite to mainstream hero following the huge success of her empowering, truth-telling 2021 single, I Do This All The Time. Her trademark lyricism and razor-sharp wit led to a Mercury Prize nomination for her second solo album, Prioritise Pleasure, and was crowned the Guardian and Sunday Times Culture's Album of the Year. Her latest album, A Complicated Woman, received the Visionary Award at the 2025 Ivor Novello Awards, praised for its ‘fearless, genre-defying songwriting that is reshaping the sound and substance of modern pop'. Her first book, also titled A Complicated Woman, is a Sunday Times bestseller, taking readers on a poignant, witty journey using notes, lyrics, and observational prose that gets to the heart of being a woman in the world today. Rebecca's book choices are: **The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood **Women Who Run with The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estès **All Fours by Miranda July **Hunchback by Saou Ichikawa **Milk Fed by Melissa Broder Vick Hope, multi-award winning TV and BBC Radio 1 presenter, author and journalist, is the host of season eight of the Women's Prize's Bookshelfie Podcast.

Comedian, actor and improviser Rachel Parris discusses why people can be so wrong about Jane Austen, the knotty complexities of female friendship and her love for crime fiction. Rachel is officially a member of the British comedy elite – she has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You, and Mock the Week, and was BAFTA-nominated for her satirical sketches on BBC's The Mash Report, which have garnered over 100 million views online. She's a regular on BBC Radio 4 where she can be heard on Just A Minute, I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and, formerly, The Now Show. Rachel hosts the comedy podcast How Was It For You?, with her husband, Marcus Brigstocke; and another podcast for the Children's Book Project called The Power of a Book, where guests share the children's stories that mean the most to them. On the stage, she is a co-founder of Austentatious – a Jane Austen themed improv comedy show in the West End. Her debut novel, Introducing Mrs Collins, is a tale of love, loss, and second chances, for anyone who's wondered if there's more to the sensible character we met in Pride and Prejudice. Rachel's book choices are: **Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver **Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen **The Names by Florence Knapp **My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante **The Lost by Claire McGowan Vick Hope, multi-award winning TV and BBC Radio 1 presenter, author and journalist, is the host of season eight of the Women's Prize's Bookshelfie Podcast.

En Côte d'Ivoire, le marché des vins et spiritueux reste largement dominé par les produits importés. Le pays était en 2024 le deuxième importateur africain de vin en valeur, derrière l'Afrique du Sud. Mais de petites entreprises ivoiriennes font le pari du local, en vendant des vins, liqueurs et autres alcools fabriqués à partir de fruits et céréales ouest-africains. Des alcools mis en avant en cette période de fêtes. Avec notre correspondante à Abidjan, Marine Jeannin Que serait un marché de Noël sans boissons festives ? À celui de l'hôtel Ivoire, l'entrepreneuse franco-ivoirienne Audrey Nanou tient un stand avec son frère pour vendre les produits de leur petite entreprise familiale, les Versants d'Aghien. Des vins de bissap, d'ananas, ou de passion, qui remportent un beau succès auprès des badauds qui s'aventurent à y goûter. Une petite production de deux cents bouteilles par mois, qu'ils écoulent grâce au bouche à oreille, et qu'ils espèrent doubler l'an prochain. « Pour les fêtes, pour se faire plaisir, les gens aiment bien, se réjouit Audrey Nanou. Il faut juste que les gens goûtent, il faut que les gens découvrent, parce que tous ceux qui goûtent aiment ! Enfin, presque tous. C'est original et les gens qui goûtent sont étonnés. Donc je pense qu'on a notre place sur le marché. Mais c'est vrai qu'il faut amener les gens à consommer ivoirien, et changer les habitudes en fait. » Un peu plus loin se dresse un autre stand de boissons: Vinqueur, sans A. En plus des vins et liqueurs élaborés à partir de produits locaux, ils proposent des sirops non alcoolisés et des spiritueux classiques revisités à l'ivoirienne, énumère Ginette Bailly, la directrice administrative et financière : « On a notre whisky, le whisky Ivoire, notre gin, Abidjan Gin, notre rhum, pastis… La liqueur Chérie Coco qui est un peu comme du Baileys, mais à l'ivoirienne, qui est faite avec du lait de coco. Et la vodka de foufou, qui est à base de banane plantain, avec de l'huile rouge. » À 30 km de là, à l'entrée de la ville côtière de Grand-Bassam, le cofondateur de Vinqueur, Terah De Jong, ouvre aux visiteurs les portes de sa micro-distillerie qui transforme près de 75 différentes matières premières ouest-africaines. « J'ai eu l'idée de faire la distillation de jus d'Afrique de l'Ouest en 2017, raconte-t-il. On a commencé avec des jus de bissap, de fruits de la passion, on a fait plus de 300 essais. Certains étaient très bons, d'autres vraiment horribles. » Avec le temps, Terah De Jong et sa femme Mariame Ouattara ont élaboré un catalogue de 35 produits. Potentiel de création d'emplois « Je me suis rendu compte qu'il y avait beaucoup d'épices, d'herbes et de produits médicinaux en Afrique de l'Ouest qu'on pouvait mettre dans des boissons, poursuit l'entrepreneur. Donc, notre premier spiritueux a été Abidjan Gin, avec 21 épices et écorces locales. On utilise plus de 75 matières premières d'Afrique de l'Ouest. On n'achète pas d'alcool, on fermente tout depuis zéro. Pour notre whisky, au lieu du blé et de l'orge, on utilise le sorgho, le mil et le maïs. On utilise des jus de canne à sucre fraîchement pressés pour faire nos rhums blancs agricoles. On a aussi des eaux-de-vie », explique le producteur. « Par exemple, avec la pomme de cajou, qui est un déchet agricole ici, qui n'est pas utilisé après la récolte mais qui existe en abondance, on fait différentes choses, comme des sirops ou un spiritueux qu'on appelle Tekilah, avec K. C'est un peu comme un mezcal, c'est très fumé. C'est aussi la base pour notre Kognac, avec K également, pour ne pas avoir de problèmes [le cognac étant une appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC), son nom est légalement protégé, ndlr]. C'est 20 % de mangue et 80 % de pomme de cajou », précise-t-il. Avec leur microbrasserie, Terah de Jong et Mariame Ouattara nourrissent des ambitions multiples : « Il y a certes l'enjeu de création d'emploi local, souligne-t-il. On pense que le potentiel en termes de croissance économique dans les villages est assez important. Et ce sont aussi des produits avec une belle histoire qu'on peut raconter autour. Mais l'enjeu pour nous est aussi d'apporter un regard différent sur la richesse des ingrédients, la richesse des épices et du terroir ouest-africain. De montrer aussi ce qu'on peut faire avec cette richesse, au-delà d'exporter les matières premières brutes. » En Côte d'Ivoire, les produits agricoles représentent la moitié des exportations nationales, mais seulement 14,4 % du PIB, faute d'une industrie de transformation locale suffisamment développée.

We break tradition this December by She-watching a film which isn't actually a Christmas film but is Christmas-adjacent, having been watched by millions of people on TV around this time last year. Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl was the latest labour of love from Aardman Animations, reuniting scatty inventor Wallace and adorable Gromit with their sworn enemy Feathers McGraw. Having only previously watched it through a carb, sugar and Baileys induced haze last December 25th, we go back and reassess it in the cold light of day and guess what? It's still 82 minutes of absolute joy. And you can rewatch it yourself in Christmas Day this year, because goodness knows there's nothing else on
A concerning magician returns to clear his name, little Amy gets drunk off Baileys and 7UP, Amy gets a sandwich delivery live on the pod, an American food delivery woman sprays a delivery with mase, if Amy feels unsafe Ryan promises to take care of her, HockeyBro and Ryan broke up, Ryan takes us through his latest with Grindr, Ryan sends kiss emoji's to the wrong person, Amy goes to her nephews Christmas concert and a boy gets smashed by a decoration, Ryan reads another diary entry, a PLT listener lights a field on fire and another one makes a connection on the massage table and as always we end with a game but this time it's about christmas!

Broadcasting legend Clare Balding tells us why the Celebrity Traitors' castle was the perfect place to finish writing her latest book, how the author of a ‘bonkbuster' that was banned from her school became the person who got Clare into novel-writing, and the animals and women in literature who have captured her imagination. Clare grew up in the countryside surrounded by horses and dogs, reading everything from Jilly Cooper to Henry James. A keen rider, she competed as an amateur flat jockey during her teenage years, winning Champion Lady Rider in 1990. She is now one of Britain's leading broadcasters, receiving the BAFTA Special Award and RTS Presenter of the Year Award for her expert coverage of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and is an ardent campaigner for better coverage of women's sport. Clare hosts her much-loved Ramblings series on Radio 4, taking her across the British Isles exploring its landscape and its storytelling. She is also a bestselling and award-winning author of numerous books and children's novels, including her autobiography, My Animals and Other Family, which won the National Book Award for Autobiography of the Year. Her debut novel for adults, Pastures New, is a love letter to the countryside and the kindness of small communities, told with Clare's characteristic warmth and wit. Clare's book choices are: **Black Beauty by Anna Sewell **Riders by Jilly Cooper **The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid **Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus **Raising Hare by Chloe Dalton Vick Hope, multi-award winning TV and BBC Radio 1 presenter, author and journalist, is the host of season eight of the Women's Prize's BookshelfiePodcast.

Actor Nikki Amuka-Bird discusses her awe for Zadie Smith, the need for humour in books about difficult conversations and her relationship with playing “mean” characters. Nikki is an actor whose career spans across film, television, and stage. She was born in Nigeria and grew up in Antigua before moving to the UK to attend boarding school. She studied at LAMDA – the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art – and quickly fell in love with the craft, before beginning what would become a stellar stage career with the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Feminist campaigner and founder of Sex Ed Matters, Laura Coryton discusses the power of sisterhood, the books which have inspired her campaigning and why sex education in schools still needs to evolve. In 2014, Laura led the petition ‘Stop Taxing Periods' to end tampon tax, which gained over 300,000 signatures and support from major political figures including Barack Obama.

Laura is an Obama Foundation European Leader and stood in the 2024 parliamentary election as the Labour Party candidate in Richmond Park. Her first book Speak Up! was published in 2019 and aims to inspire the next generation of female voices.

The Bishop's Hotwife: Part 5Some things are not negotiable..Based on a post by Wendy Trilby, in 5 parts. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.Chapter 10: So What Happens Now.That was the last I saw of Mrs. Barton. Two days after that conversation, I headed back to Boston to complete my final year of law school.I had two choices: dwell on the love I had found and now lost or apply that energy into my studies. I chose the latter.Mrs. Barton would text me from time to time and even ask if I was coming home for the holidays. I could have ignored her texts, but instead, I'd reply with one-word answers.Busy.Can't.No.I wasn't trying to be rude, but I was still processing this strange brew of deceit and devotion, that had left me so fucked up.At times, I would masturbate to the memories of our time together, but visions of The Bishop would cloud those thoughts.I spent Christmas in Boston, telling each of my friends a different story about where I would be. Although I had lost control of my life last summer, I knew that if I focused on my studies, I could gain control over my thoughts.But I could not control my dreams, and nearly every night I'd be with Mandy. The Bishop was never in those dreams, just she and I. The dreams were almost never sexual. It would be us spending time together. At most, we held hands or kissed.I knew I should see a therapist about my experience, but I remembered the threat Mandy said could come to her if our tryst was made public in any way or form. Time and distance would have to be my therapy.It was mid-January when I came out of Langdell Hall on the Harvard campus and saw her standing there. She was all alone.I assumed I was dreaming. I must have been asleep, but a student on a Citybike nearly hit me, and I realized I was very much awake.Her face showed a little weight, but in her winter coat, you couldn't tell she was six months pregnant.I asked her why she was there. Was everything Okay? Was she okay?Her answer was unexpected. Everything was fine. Perfect. Except she felt lonely.She shared that she had cried uncontrollably every morning since our last day. She sank into a depression and spent several days at my house, lying in our bed.The Bishop had hired a nanny to cover for her time away from home. None of this was planned for in the grand scheme and The Bishop had grown angry with her and livid with me.I had so much to say to her. I had rehearsed countless ways to insult her, to bring her down. She had used me in the worst possible way and had exploited my father. For eighteen years, she and The Bishop had manipulated us so that he could appear to be a virile man of the church. Meanwhile, he degraded his wife to maintain that stature. I was prepared to unleash my hatred on this woman.So here she was, and I; didn't say any of that.She didn't need my semen, my support, my permission. She was here for me."Can we talk?" she asked.We walked through the campus, coming to a quiet place to sit and talk."Does The Bishop know you're here?""No, I'm in Boston for a physical at Brigham and Women's. A woman at forty, they treat a pregnancy like it's high risk.""You came to Boston for a physical?""I'm at seven months, so I won't be able to travel soon.""But there's nothing wrong? Nothing that requires you to be here?""Yes, there is. You."She had a difficult time making eye contact and looked at her lap as she spoke."I've missed you. I realized how hurt you were when summer ended. We had so much fun, shared so much together, and then the truth; ""Yeah, the truth. That was a hell of a lot of truth.""I know. I didn't see it coming. It was different with your father,""See what coming?""My feelings for you. I mean, with your dad, it was fun and comforting, and we never let emotions get in the way.""Well, I'm not my dad, I guess. I've only impregnated you once."I rolled my eyes. That wasn't necessary, and it wasn't what I wanted to say. I was overjoyed she was here and insulting her wasn't what I wanted to do. Thankfully, she let it go."I never felt for your father what I feel for you. That's what I came here to say. I thought this feeling would go away when you left. It didn't, it got worse."We sat there in silence. She had, without stating the words, seemingly proclaimed everlasting love for me."So, what happens now?"I return to Utah tomorrow. In two months, our daughter will be born. Three months later, you graduate, and hopefully, three months after that, you'll let me come to you when I'm ready for another child."So, nothing changes? This charade continues?""Everything changes. I think I made it clear how I feel for you. Do you understand how complicated that is for me?"She was a master of bringing the story back to herself.Complicated for her? She had created this world, she chose it; I had been conscripted.Still, I did feel for her. I knew how much I wanted to be with her, and if her desire for me was even a fraction of that, her days were long and wanting.She got up to go."I have an appointment. But I'm staying at the Copley Plaza if you want to come by and say goodbye or talk some more."She stood before me with a glow that only a pregnant woman can achieve. Her hair was thick and lustrous, her face was full, and her belly was distended with our child warm inside.I stood to face here."Of course, we don't have to talk," she said, then turned and walked across the quad toward a waiting town car.It was early evening when I arrived at the Copley Plaza Hotel. I went to the front desk to find her room."Can you call Amanda Barton's room for me. Tell her Ethan is here?"The clerk handed me a room key."She said her husband was coming by. Ethan, is it?""Yes, Ethan. Her husband," I said, trying to sound sincere. "I'm her husband."The clerk handed me a room key and gestured to the elevators."14 23, and congratulations."I smiled and nodded. I was her husband again. Apparently, I was to be congratulated for that. Oh, wait, he meant for her pregnancy. Okay, whatever.I gently knocked on the hotel room door, but with the key in hand, I unlocked it and entered. It was a two-room suite, and I could hear the shower running."Ethan?" she asked from the bathroom."Umm, yeah. They gave me a room key, so I let myself in."I heard the water shut off, and a few moments later, she walked into the suite's living area wearing a thick hotel robe and drying her hair."I might have gone heavy on the coffee today.""Should you even be drinking coffee?""Decaf. Not as much fun, but it turns out the poop effect is the same.""And so, the shower."She smiled."You know me. Poop and a shower. Some things don't change even if my body has."I was trying to visualize her beneath the robe. We had spent most of the summer naked and in each other's arms, but there was a different body under that terrycloth, and I longed to see it.Perhaps my gaze betrayed me."You're curious, aren't you?" she said with a mischievous smile."Very."I could tell she was anxious, which was a notable shift from her typically confident demeanor.She kept her gaze on me, and she reached for the tie of her robe, fingers trembling slightly, and then let it slip away, revealing her heavily pregnant form.I noticed a line of skin discoloration from her cunt up to her belly and beyond. She had always had protruding nipples due to her breastfeeding, but I had never seen her areolas so large and dark.I had so many questions about female physiology during pregnancy, but this didn't seem like the right time to ask.I thought I might be put off by seeing her pregnant, especially with my child; however, I'm not sure if it was me or nature, but I found myself turned on.She placed her hand on the swell of her belly and gently bit her lip, waiting for my approval or fearing my disapproval. Her tits were once again heavy, her nipples thicker and darker than I remembered, pointed down."You look; incredible," I said, closing the distance between us."I've missed you. I wanted to come here so many times to see you and;"I cut her off."I missed you, too.""With your father, he was next door, and I would go over to talk with him. But he was just a friend. I didn't need him like I need you.""But you got what you needed from both of us."She looked down and rubbed her belly with a smile."Not this," she said, referring to our child within her."This," she said as she moved in and kissed me passionately.The familiarity, the plumpness of her lips, the taste of her mouth, the smell of her skin, brought back the feelings of elation from the summer, and we practically melted together.She wrapped her arms around my shoulders, clinging to me. Our kisses grew deeper as the primal urge for us to reconnect intensified. On an animal level, her body sensed that I was the father of her unborn child, and her hormones sent signal after signal to her brain to draw me close, to give me pleasure, to keep me nearby, and let me protect her.My body responded in kind. I wanted to join her, but was unsure how."How do we do this?" I asked, genuinely bewildered.She backed up to the bed and sat so her face was at my waist. She didn't speak but went to work unbuckling by belt and a moment later, freeing my cock.She smiled at seeing it once again. Moving her hair to the side, she took it in hand and brought her mouth down on my shaft, warming it with her saliva. The feeling was familiar, and I sighed in relief. She continued to work my cock, gently massaging the shaft.Having never had sex with a pregnant woman, I wondered if this was it, but I recalled her one command, that I always finish in her pussy. Then I remembered that was probably just part of the ruse.Perhaps this blowjob is the end game. I'll just let her lead.After a while she released my cock from her mouth and crawled back on the bed. Her pussy was shaven, More so than in the summer. She lay on her back, her arms out, and then beckoned me to join her.I crawled to her side, she took her tit in hand, holding it out for me. Careful not to put my weight on her, I brought my mouth to her thick nipple. It was plumper than last summer and incredibly swollen. I gently played and applied pressure with my mouth, as when she fed me in the past, but nothing came out.She stroked my head gently, then brought her fingers to her tits. I released her nipple and watched as she tugged and manipulated it until a thick ooze of cream trickled out.

Anita Bailey’s heart was warmed when she got this social media message about her son Jalen: “I was a greeter today at [church] and a young man with a child in his arms came up to me and put his arms around me. . . . I stared for a second, then I recognized him and said, ‘Jalen’! We embraced and chatted briefly. What a fine young man!” The greeter had known Jalen in his rebellious days when Anita and her husband, Ed, felt powerless to save their son from the consequences of his unwise choices, which resulted in twelve years in prison for him. Though the Baileys felt powerless, they were not prayerless. And neither was King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20. When harassed by a menacing coalition of enemy forces, he called a prayer meeting (vv. 1-4). “Our God, will you not judge them?” he prayed. “For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you” (v. 12). Have you ever felt powerless or clueless in the face of circumstances that were out of your control? Why not call a prayer meeting—either alone or with others? That’s what Jesus did in the face of His coming crucifixion (Luke 22:39-44). Prayer space is the sacred place where the petitions of powerless people are offered to our almighty God in the name of Jesus.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, audio from Beto O'Rourke practically worshiping Zohran Mamdani (much like Elizabeth Warren and others). Also hands down THE most insane and deranged story in the long, sad history of Democratic lunacy is the make believe family known as "the Baileys" that could only come from the "beautiful mind" of Chuck Schumer. Also Bill Clinton's involvement in the Epstein case and much more.

On The Alan Sanders Show Episode 154, we dig into the real story behind the headlines! Is inflation cooling? We break down the July CPI numbers and how Trump's tariffs haven't seemed to be affecting inflation by any strong degree. We tackle President Trump's controversial federalization of D.C. police, sold as a crime crackdown. Democrats say there is a 26% drop in crime in 2025, but are those numbers rigged? Under-reporting and FBI data revisions, like the 2022 violent crime spike, hide the true crime picture. Plus, we dive into allegations of Rep. Adam Schiff leaking classified documents to hurt President Trump. We do ponder if former AG William Barr was colluding with DA Fani Willis, but while there is smoke, we don't have anything definitive, yet. And meet Chuck Schumer's fictional Baileys, the imaginary couple steering his career. Join us for unfiltered analysis that cuts through the spin! Subscribe and weigh in now!

It's a Monday Fun Day on the Majority Report where the fun is rare, but you can't deny it is Monday. We open with a good news - bad news situation. The good news is violent crime in Washington DC has a hit a 30-year low. Bad news is Trump is declaring DC under federal control and deploying the National Guard. We are joined by Palestinian-Canadian emergency room physician, Dr. Tarek Loubani who is currently volunteering at Nasser hospital in Gaza. It's a harrowing interview but we must bear witness to the terror our tax dollars are funding. Check out Emma's interview with Dr. Loubani from last year. In the Fun Half: Pete Buttigieg uses his signature brand of meaningless corporate consultant talk to the topic of Israel on Pod Save America. Rep Bryan Steil (R-WI) gets heckled out of the building during his town hall. Israel assassinated 5 more journalists, never in history have we seen a country target the press like this. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver did a segment on Chuck Schumer's imaginary best friends, "The Baileys". Maybe one of the LWT writers are MR fans? Patrick Bet-David uses every ounce of his very limited broadcasting ability to spin a report that shows how monumentally unpopular Elon Musk and Donald Trump are. ICE and CBP claim being brown qualifies as reasonable suspicion and GOP Latinos are starting to feel the pressure that they voted for. All that and more plus phone calls and IMs The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.

In today's episode, the author speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about the Baileys' story.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Some time ago, the British journalist Sophie Elmhirst was reporting a story about people who try to escape the land and to live on the water. “I found myself trolling around as you do in these moments, online and on a website devoted to castaway stories and shipwreck stories,” she tells host Gilbert Cruz. “There were lots of photographs and tales of lone wild men who were pitched up on desert islands and had various escapades. And in among all of these was a tiny little black-and-white picture of a man and a woman."The couple were Maurice and Maralyn Bailey, a husband and wife who took to the seas from 1970s England, selling their suburban home to buy a boat and sail to New Zealand. Nine months into the trip, a sperm whale breached under their boat, leaving them stranded on a crude raft with an assortment of salvaged items, luckily including water, canned food, a camera — and a biography of King Richard III. Elmhirst tells the Baileys' story in her new book, “A Marriage at Sea." Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.
