Zandra Rhodes is a true British original, as integral to the creative iconography of British culture as Bowie, Ab Fab and the Spice Girls; an independent fashion designer who kick-started her career as a student on the Pop Art scene with David Hockney in London the 1960s; who built a successful global fashion empire in the 70s and 80s beloved by Jackie Kennedy, Freddie Mercury, Diana Ross, Princess Diana and Cher; and who, in the face of dwindling popularity in the 90s when her exuberant prints were no match for the grunge and minimalism trends of the era, pivoted to launch the Fashion and Textile Museum and designing costumes for the opera. The through line to all of this has been her innovative use of sketch and pattern as a founding block of her design; a love of travel and a delight in absorbing the world around her into her work; and her deep-rooted friendships with the likes of artists Andrew Logan, David Sassoon and Duggie Fields. Diagnosed with cancer in 2020, the electric-pink haired Dame Zandra has defied the grim diagnosis and remains as exuberant and erudite as ever, quick to throw out a throaty chuckle and share a salty anecdote with her trademark gregariousness. As The Holburne Musuem in Bath, England, stages a retrospective of her famous prints, the 85-year old takes a moment out of her jam-packed schedule to talk to Danielle Radojcin about just what it is that makes her keep on keeping on…

Join The Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce, Rector of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music. Our opening anthem – Everything holds together – is a song for the season of creation which was commissioned for St Bride's Choir by the Church of England's Environment Working Group. It is a setting composed by Ian Stephens of a poem by Malcolm Guite and is a timely reminder of our duty of stewardship to protect and enhance the environment in which we live. Alison reflects this week on how St Bride's observes a candle-lit hour of silence at the end of each working day which we call a Space for Silence – offering the gift of stillness and quiet calm in the heart of one of the busiest cities on Earth. We close with the hymn "For the beauty of the Earth" written by Folliott Pierpoint who was inspired to write the poem by the glorious view from a hilltop outside his home city of Bath in 1863.

CrowdScience listener Griffith in Ghana, isn't JUST a CrowdScience listener. He's also a listener to our sister show on the World Service, Unexpected Elements. But he's noticed something funny. In the weekly Unexpected Elements multiple-choice quiz, the answer is almost NEVER ‘a'. It's nearly always ‘b', or ‘c'. Why is this? When we set the quiz, why are we so reluctant to choose option ‘a'? His question leads presenter Alex Lathbridge on a journey into the murky depths of our brain, where he discovers the cognitive biases which so often trip us up in games of chance, or probability. Your brain might be a marvellous machine when it comes to figuring out how to understand the world, but sometimes, in the name of efficiency, it takes clever little short-cuts to the answer. This pragmatic approach to problem solving helps us manage an incredibly complicated world. But occasionally, especially when it comes to mathematics, chance, and probability, it leads us in the wrong direction. With the help of mathematician Kit Yates from the University of Bath in the UK, and some rather stale sweets, Alex will be finding out how to win at games of chance. Alex also explores the world of gaming, and gambling. Games of chance in which our intuition sometimes lets us down, and makes us choose unwisely. Rachel Croson, Professor of Economics at the University of Minnesota, USA, talks us through how the human brain can work against us. But can knowledge of those human pitfalls help us to win? Alex hears from Maria Konnikova, who turned her research on the psychology of poker into a successful gambling career. Can we really use maths to beat our brains, and learn how to win more often?

In this REWIND episode Gary Mansfield talks to sound artist Martyn Ware (@martynware), music producer and founding member of both Human League & Heaven 17. Martyn co-curated ReAnimate, an exhibition of sound spread over several rooms of the National Portrait Gallery where several artists were invited to create sound portraits, as part of the Late Shift Extra events. For The National Trust's One and All project Martyn created What Does the Sea Say?, an interactive soundscape housed within a typical British beach hut. Although recordings were made by the sea, this work travelled around the UK. Martyn's latest creation is an urban soundscape is entitled; Everything Old is New Again which accompanied the visual experience of the Forest of Imagination in Bath during the summer of 2019, where statements made by the old were read aloud by the young and vice versa (a link for which is found below).https://soundcloud.com/martynware/everything-old-is-new-again-stereo-binaural For more information of Martyn's sound installations, past and present visit; www.illustriouscompany.co.uk Martyn is touring throughout 2019 with Heaven 17 To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofarts For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.co.ukEmail: ministryofartsorg@gmail.comSocial Media: @ministryofartsorg Hosted on Acast.

Why can't you walk down the detergent aisle without triggering a migraine? In this follow-up episode, I break down the hidden connection between odor sensitivity and chronic migraines, and why it's not just "how you're wired." Here's what most people don't know: when you smell something, you're inhaling molecules that enter your bloodstream. For migraine sufferers, whose "toxin buckets" are already near the top, even small exposures, a candle, ground beef cooking, the coffee aisle, can tip you into a full migraine. I also share the shocking Bath & Body Works story: how they pumped 20-30 pounds of fragrance into Grand Central Station, turning unsuspecting commuters into walking migraine triggers. In this episode, you'll learn why there are two levels of odor sensitivity, one that only happens during migraines, and another that's constant, even when you feel fine. I explain why smelling something means absorbing toxins into your bloodstream, and how the "toxin bucket" concept changes everything once you understand it. You'll discover why odor sensitivity isn't genetic or hardwired, it's actually a symptom that can improve over time. And I'll show you how to build margin in your system so that wildfire smoke, perfume, or holiday candles don't automatically ruin your day. This episode is for you if you avoid certain grocery store aisles because the smell is overwhelming, if your family thinks you're making it up when you complain about odors, if you've been told you're just sensitive to smells and that's how you are, or if you want to stop living in fear of triggers and rebuild trust in your body. If you're having 8+ migraine days per month and you're ready to drain your toxin bucket and reclaim your life, I can help.

At the turn of the twentieth century, a pattern of unusual deaths began to surface, when three unrelated women were found drowned in their bathtubs, following a fit or a feinting. The cases seemed unconnected, scattered across towns and surnames, until the similarities grew too precise to ignore. At the center of the widening suspicion was a man named George Joseph Smith, though very few actually knew him by that name until reports of his crimes began to filter into the newspapers, and purely by chance, people around the country began connecting the dots.

In another of the non-linear tellings for 2026 (of what once was, and what is now, and what shall be) the inspiration came from someone I used to see in my local park when I lived in Bath, England. It has been given an extra nudge to come sit by you this full moon by the squirrels here at Crow Cottage. I fancy it is them, and not the mice, that are scurring about and knocking at the windows in the wee hours… Calling Forth the Ash and the Bones is a Year and a Day long non-linear mythic experimentation with story. It is an emergent weaving of tales branching out from the death of a King and an Old Oak Tree that knows. If you would like to sponsor a story, thank you, you can do so here with love Elizabeth Jane Image by Anastasia Beloychuk from Pixabay
The Ancient Greek historian and general Thucydides (c. 460-400 BCE) called his history of a war between Athens and Sparta "a possession for all time." More than 2,400 years later, his work is still essential reading for anyone interested in the morality of war and the nature of political power. In this episode, Jacke talks to Robin Waterfield and historian Polly Low about Thucydides' achievement and Robin's new translation of The History of the Peloponnesian War. PLUS James West, editor of The Cambridge Centennial Edition of The Great Gatsby, stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read. Join Jacke on a trip through literary England!

Robin Lithgow spent her life immersed in the performing arts, including a childhood in the theater and decades spent as an educator and arts administrator. But it wasn't until she read a little-known work by Erasmus that she fully realized the importance that performance had on Shakespeare and his generation--which mirrored the experiences she had had as an English and drama teacher in inner-city schools in Los Angeles. In this special episode, Robin joins Jacke to talk about her life in the theater, her epiphanies regarding Shakespeare's education, and the centrality of the performing arts in a child's development. ROBIN LITHGOW was the first Theatre Adviser, and eventually the Director, of the Arts Education Branch of the Los Angeles Unified School District, the second largest school district in the United States. Before becoming an arts administrator, she was a teacher for twenty-one years, teaching every grade level from kindergarten through senior high school and ending her classroom tenure as an English and drama teacher. And before that, she was the daughter of Arthur Lithgow, a theater impresario who developed Shakespeare festivals all over Ohio, which meant that Robin and her younger brother John Lithgow, the acclaimed actor, grew up traveling from place to place, watching rehearsals and performances, as their father mounted productions of every play in the Shakespearean canon.

It might sound strange, but dirt helps birds scrub themselves clean. Birds of all sizes, like the Eurasian Skylark, often scrape a depression in the ground and flick dirt onto their bodies, shimmying to shake it off. Experiments showed that birds use dust to prevent oils from building up on their feathers and to remove dandruff — much like humans using shampoo in the shower!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

In this episode, Lily Smith and Randy Silver host Anu Jagga‑Narang, a product evangelist at AT&T, to explore premortems — a powerful technique for anticipating product failure before launch. Anu explains how premortems use prospective hindsight to uncover risks early, surface assumptions teams are reluctant to voice, and improve decision quality. The conversation covers practical steps for running premortems, risk classification using tigers, paper tigers and elephants, common pitfalls, and when to revisit the exercise as products evolve. They also examine how emerging AI capabilities influence product risk management — increasing the need for thoughtful planning rather than replacing human insight. This discussion offers product leaders a framework to strengthen strategic thinking, foster psychological safety and equip teams to build with confidence and clarity.Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Premortems01:39 Guest Introduction — Anu Jagga‑Narang02:14 Career Journey into Product05:03 What Is a Premortem?07:04 Framing Failure and Success in Premortems11:02 How to Conduct a Premortem15:04 Voting and Risk Classification17:00 Tigers, Paper Tigers, and Elephants20:22 Assigning Ownership and Actions21:28 When to Run a Premortem23:40 Who Should Participate and Duration25:14 Examples and Surprising Insights28:43 Common Mistakes and Anti‑patterns31:51 AI's Impact on Premortems34:13 Closing Remarks and CreditsOur HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

In this episode of the Singletrack Podcast, I sit down with Andy Blow, CEO and founder of Precision Fuel & Hydration, for a wide-ranging conversation about what athletes at all levels still get wrong about fueling and hydration in ultrarunning. A note up front: Precision Fuel & Hydration is a major partner of the Singletrack Podcast — a partnership we're proud of and want to fully disclose. That said, this conversation isn't contractually obligated. It's the exact discussion I would want to have with Andy regardless, driven by a growing curiosity around nutrition, technology, and performance in endurance sports.Andy brings a deep and unique background to the conversation, with a degree in Sports & Exercise Science from the University of Bath, experience working as a sports scientist with Formula 1 teams, and a role helping establish the Porsche Human Performance Centre before founding Precision Fuel & Hydration.We explore both fundamentals and frontiers, including:Why many ultrarunners — including elite athletes — succeed despite gaps in nutrition knowledgeCore hydration concepts like sweat rate, sweat sodium concentration, and blood volume contractionThe danger of chasing marginal gains before mastering the basicsWhy real-time sweat tech still isn't quite ready for prime time “Ballpark accuracy” vs perfect precision in fueling and hydrationAid-station decision-making, guardrails, and crew strategy in ultra racesThe emerging challenges of fueling and hydrating for multi-day eventsI learned a lot in this one, and hope you do too.Partners:Norda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever made (https://nordarun.com/)Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next order (https://www.precisionhydration.com/planner/?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=singletrack)Raide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains (https://raideresearch.com/)Janji - premium trail running apparel (https://janji.com/)Support the show
Chatabix is back to kick off 2026! And it might be a brand new series but nothing much has changed, as Joe's talking to David from a hotel room and dealing with some dodgy Wi-Fi. But once that's all sorted, there's chat about new conversation ideas, some recent quipping and David's Christmas holiday trips to Bath, Brighton and Lapland. Joe also reveals that he's recently been on a run with some Chatabiscuits and David has a think about going to see The Cure's last ever gig. It's great to be back podding!

Thanks to William Roam for sponsoring this episode! williamroam.com A single day in Bath reshaped how we travel—and how we unwind at home. We mapped a rail-first route through the UK, hopped off in this honey-stone city to dodge London traffic, and discovered how a smart stop can ripple through daily life. Between a whimsical dinner, a tiny yet brilliantly lit hotel room, and a slow morning perched above the River Avon at Pulteney Bridge Coffee, we gathered more than photos. We left with design ideas, a new recipe to test, and a deeper commitment to bathing as a nightly ritual.Walk with us past the Roman Baths, Bath Abbey, and the Royal Crescent as we share practical planning tips: when to rent a car, how to maximize a short stay, and why walkability matters. Then we head indoors, where a simple tub stopper becomes a secret weapon for on-the-road recovery, and warm soaks set up better sleep through the cooling effect. We talk subtle scents, plant-forward ingredients, and travel-ready formats that make a bathroom feel like a boutique hotel without a single renovation. Small luxuries—bath salts, a non-aerosol shaving cream, a calm candle—create a mood you can pack and recreate.We also chase the most unexpected souvenir: a chocolate avocado matcha cake that turned into a home project, proof that the tastiest memories are the ones you remake. Along the way, a museum poster echoes the art in our bathroom, stitching Bath's streets to our own walls. That's Roam to Home in action: let cities inspire rituals, let design guide lighting, and let water reset your pace so your nights are calmer and your mornings clearer.If you're ready to turn travel into lasting comfort, press play.

Civility can help a society overcome tribal loyalties and cooperate for the common good--and when political and religious factions threaten to break a society apart, as in Shakespeare's England, understanding the need for civility becomes more important than ever. In this episode, Jacke talks to Shakespeare scholar Indira Ghose about her book A Defence of Pretence: Civility and the Theatre in Early Modern England about the use of theatre as a laboratory where the era's conflicts played out.

As the Premiership heads into its mid-season break, Ugo and Ashy look back on a packed weekend of action. They start with one of the games of the season as Bath edged Gloucester at Kingsholm, with Charlie Atkinson outstanding. Are Bath still the force they were last year, or are teams starting to work them out? Harlequins are back under the spotlight, with Ashy asking whether, in another sport, Jason Gilmore would already be gone. Is an injury-hit squad finally catching up with Sale, or is their attack the bigger concern? They also reflect on Mark McCall's pending departure at Saracens, and why Brendan Venter may be the perfect person to step in. And, is retiring from international rugby still a thing?
