Lee and guest host Wick check out Roy Ward Baker's "Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde" (1971), a Hammer production which marked the first gender-bending adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's famous story. The conversation jumps around from the excellent lead performances of Ralph Bates and Martine Beswick to how the film weaves in the Jack the Ripper and Burke and Hare stories, as well as if it actually intended any progressive message with its gender-switching story, of if it was all just an excuse to see Beswick fondle herself in the mirror while naked (spoilers: it was!). The hosts also talk about what they've watched lately.

Max and Matt are joined by the famous Bez, as the three Dads dive into the often tricky balance between firm boundaries and gentle parenting. What does it look like to put your foot down kindly with a kid who's truly ready to test your limits? What can we do before that meeting of the wills that will hopefully make it go better? How do we calm our own worries that those necessary limit-setting clashes will create long term ripples in the relationship? We also talk a lot about how different this can look from one kid to the next, or even with the same kid at different points in their life. This is one of the many balance beams that we're always walking as parents: respecting our kids' feelings and who they are and creating an environment that doesn't feel like a dictatorship but does acknowledge the many ways in which our kids need us to say, "no" when they can't do it for themselves. We ain't got it figured out yet, but we're working on it. Here we go! Buy Violet Archer on Amazon Here

Writer Alec Herron's gran's house was on the Grey Mare Lane estate in Beswick, east Manchester. He can still remember Sunday afternoons "filled with rice pudding, sucking bone marrow and hours sat around the table hearing stories of tragedy and petty gossip told with the same veracity".It will all be coming down soon. The regeneration of Grey Mare Lane estate was initiated after a 2017 public consultation concluded the estate was being “left behind”. Late last year, a £70 million masterplan for the area was withdrawn, two years after being first presented to residents. Three weeks ago a new masterplan was released. 124 social rented homes are to be demolished, and at least 550 new homes built — more than double the number of the previous masterplan.In this week's episode, Alec discusses his memories of the estate — some happy, some painful — and why this area is ripe for regeneration, and asks whether the same community can live on after the demolish-and-rebuild scheme is complete.A warning: this episode contains a description of physical violence. With thanks to Manchester Museum's Wild Show for sponsoring this episode. Wild is a brilliant new exhibition at Manchester Museum exploring how people are creating and repairing connections with nature, from post-industrial urban landscapes like Manchester to Aboriginal-led cultural revegetation projects in Western Australia and the reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone National Park in the US.

In today's episode, we're peeling back the layers of organizational innovation with expert Chris Beswick, who introduces a transformative approach to measuring innovation maturity. We're delving into the advanced methodologies that assess where a company stands on the innovation curve and provide actionable steps for progression. With a non-linear and sentiment-based assessment tool called AIM, Chris guides us through the pillars of a comprehensive innovation system and how companies can diagnose their innovation health. Chris Beswick is a pioneer in innovation strategy and a dedicated advocate for changing how organizations approach innovation maturity. As a seasoned thought leader, Chris has implemented his unique assessment model in companies ranging from modest start-ups to global giants, proving that size does not dictate the necessity for innovation introspection. With a keen eye for the interconnectedness of culture, strategy, and leadership, he empowers companies to comprehensively assess and evolve their practices. His passion for data-driven decision-making and the democratization of innovation insights makes him a vanguard in the field. "We need to replace traditional assessment answers with statements of truth to reflect where an organization stands in terms of innovation genuinely." - Chris Beswick Today on Innovation Talks: ·     Innovation maturity should encompass culture and leadership, not just processes and tools. It's about shifting the focus to address the overarching innovation ecosystem within the organization. ·     AIM as a pre-investment analysis tool: Revealing how AIM can be used to assess portfolio companies' potential for driving growth through innovation. ·     The five pillars of the innovation system are strategy, processes, governance/management, and culture/leadership, and each has its importance in the innovation journey of a company. ·     The necessity of a data-driven approach: Beswick emphasizes relying on hard data rather than subjective opinions to make significant innovation decisions. ·     Capturing sentiments of the whole organization: The importance of gaining a holistic view of the company instead of limiting the survey to a select group is vital for an accurate measure of innovation maturity. ·     The impact of hidden deltas and polarization: Beswick outlines how the AIM tool can uncover hidden issues affecting a company's innovation. ·     Building a self-sustaining framework: Developing a next-step approach that enables companies to address specific innovation maturity barriers independently. ·     The scalability of innovation assessments: Beswick's model's adaptability to varying-size organizations highlights its broad applicability.     Contact Chris Beswick: ·     LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/crisbeswick/) ·     Contact directly for innovation maturity discussions: Chris Beswick, Outcome Co (https://weareoutcome.co/) .

In today's episode, we're peeling back the layers of organizational innovation with expert Chris Beswick, who introduces a transformative approach to measuring innovation maturity. We're delving into the advanced methodologies that assess where a company stands on the innovation curve and provide actionable steps for progression. With a non-linear and sentiment-based assessment tool called AIM, Chris guides us through the pillars of a comprehensive innovation system and how companies can diagnose their innovation health.Chris Beswick is a pioneer in innovation strategy and a dedicated advocate for changing how organizations approach innovation maturity. As a seasoned thought leader, Chris has implemented his unique assessment model in companies ranging from modest start-ups to global giants, proving that size does not dictate the necessity for innovation introspection. With a keen eye for the interconnectedness of culture, strategy, and leadership, he empowers companies to comprehensively assess and evolve their practices. His passion for data-driven decision-making and the democratization of innovation insights makes him a vanguard in the field."We need to replace traditional assessment answers with statements of truth to reflect where an organization stands in terms of innovation genuinely." - Chris BeswickToday on Innovation Talks:·     Innovation maturity should encompass culture and leadership, not just processes and tools. It's about shifting the focus to address the overarching innovation ecosystem within the organization.·     AIM as a pre-investment analysis tool: Revealing how AIM can be used to assess portfolio companies' potential for driving growth through innovation.·     The five pillars of the innovation system are strategy, processes, governance/management, and culture/leadership, and each has its importance in the innovation journey of a company.·     The necessity of a data-driven approach: Beswick emphasizes relying on hard data rather than subjective opinions to make significant innovation decisions.·     Capturing sentiments of the whole organization: The importance of gaining a holistic view of the company instead of limiting the survey to a select group is vital for an accurate measure of innovation maturity.·     The impact of hidden deltas and polarization: Beswick outlines how the AIM tool can uncover hidden issues affecting a company's innovation.·     Building a self-sustaining framework: Developing a next-step approach that enables companies to address specific innovation maturity barriers independently.·     The scalability of innovation assessments: Beswick's model's adaptability to varying-size organizations highlights its broad applicability.  Contact Chris Beswick:·     LinkedIn·     Contact directly for innovation maturity discussions: Chris Beswick, Outcome Co.Resources Mentioned:AIM (Assessment of Innovation Maturity): A tool described by Chris Beswick for measuring innovation maturity across different organizational pillars.Remember, understanding your company's innovation maturity is pivotal, and taking the steps to improve it can set you on a path toward sustainable progress and competitive advantage. This Podcast is brought to you by Sopheon Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Innovation Talks.

Landmark Case: Beswick v Beswick (1968). Beswick v Beswick is an important case that illustrates the application of third-party rights and assignments. In this case, a nephew was promised certain benefits under a contract between his uncle and a company. When the uncle passed away, the company refused to honor the agreement. The court held that the nephew was an intended third-party beneficiary with the right to enforce the contract. Restrictions on Assignment and Delegation. While assignments and delegations are generally permissible, there are some restrictions and limitations that law students should be aware of: Prohibition in the Contract. The terms of the original contract may expressly prohibit assignment or delegation. When this prohibition is in place, assignments or delegations may be invalid. Material Change of Obligations. If an assignment or delegation results in a significant change in the obligor's obligations under the contract, it may be deemed invalid. Assignment of Personal Services Contracts. Assignments of personal services contracts, where performance relies heavily on the skills or abilities of a specific party, are often prohibited or subject to restrictions. Anti-Assignment Clauses. Some contracts may contain anti-assignment clauses that limit or prohibit the assignment of rights. However, these clauses are not always absolute, and their enforceability can vary. Specific Performance and Third-Party Beneficiaries. In some cases, a third-party beneficiary may seek specific performance of a contract. Law students should understand the circumstances under which this remedy is available and the challenges it may present: · Availability: Courts may grant specific performance to a third-party beneficiary if it is necessary to fulfill the promisor's contractual duties. However, the beneficiary must usually meet the same requirements as the original promisee. · Complexity and Discretion: Seeking specific performance as a third-party beneficiary can be complex and subject to the court's discretion. Courts will consider factors like feasibility, fairness, and the beneficiary's interests. Successive Assignments. Understanding the concept of successive assignments is crucial for law students. Successive assignments occur when rights under a contract are assigned more than once. Law students should grasp how successive assignments are treated in contract law, including: · Order of Priority: Generally, the first valid assignment takes precedence over later assignments. However, some jurisdictions follow the "first in time, first in right" principle, meaning the first assignee to give notice prevails. · Notifying the Obligor: It is essential for the assignee to notify the obligor for the assignment to be effective, and failure to provide notice can affect the assignee's priority. Conclusion. A thorough understanding of third-party rights, assignments, and the limitations and challenges that may arise is vital for law students. By recognizing the rights and responsibilities of third-party beneficiaries, the principles of valid assignments and delegations, and the nuances of successive assignments, students can provide valuable legal advice in complex contract-related disputes. This chapter has provided a comprehensive overview of third-party rights and assignments in contract law. As you continue your legal studies and practice, further exploration and application of these concepts will sharpen your ability to navigate intricate contract issues effectively. If you have any further questions or would like to continue with another chapter or topic, please let me know. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

Charlie Beswick is a blogger, an author, CEO of More than a Face, and a mom to 18-year-old twins, Oliver and Harry. While Oliver was born healthy, Harry was born with a craniofacial condition, meaning he had an underdeveloped face and was later diagnosed with autism. Driven to make a difference in people's lives, being a teacher (for over 16 years now), to her feels like second nature. However, despite that deep love for her calling, the challenges of raising a medically complex child made her take a two-year break from teaching. That sabbatical leave gave her time to go back and read all the journals that recorded her honest expression of her frustrations, questions, and struggles to be a mom to a child with special needs, and this formed the basis of her book Our Altered Life. Highlights:With the support and encouragement of her friends who knew about her journey, she published the book (which she wrote for 9 years), Our Altered LifeParents who reached out to thank her for speaking up for them through the book made her realize she could now help and make a difference among these parentsThus started the creation of a space where people can honestly freely and vulnerably express their feelings without being judged - This community has evolved since recording and is called S.E.N.D* Gin & Cheese Tips for parents who are just beginning on a similar journey: be organized (keep records, write thoughts and feelings), communicate especially to a spouse, and keep connected with a support systemWords of encouragement are generally considered helpful in these situations, but a safe space for honest and brutal expression of frustrations could be the long-missing link to true healingIt took her 6 years of mothering Harry before she finally admitted she needed mental health support. And now, instead of encouraging moms to be superwomen, she resonates with the huge emphasis on self-care and simple living. Apart from helping parents with special needs and diagnosis, she also works with organisations who want to better understand and support working carers. If you want to learn more from her and her journey, look her up at @ouralteredlife.com or info@charliebeswick.* S.E.N.D - Special Educational Need and Disability -----52 Weeks of Me is hosted by Jacklyn Osborne and Erika Brooks.Check out our website - www.52weeksofme.net or follow us on Instagram @fiftytwoweeksofme.For suggestions and comments, email us at fiftytwoweeksofme@gmail.com.

Steph became friends with Tracey through their mother's group - you may remember her from a previous KICBUMP episode titled "Postpartum, poop and prams" with another friend  Emma. In today's episode, Steph wanted to chat to Tracey about something that almost none of us have experienced but so many of us are curious about or at the very least fascinated by - home births. Tracey's story is just incredible. She birthed her 4 month old son Airlie at home (which was planned), but without any midwives present (which was definitely unplanned)! Hear how she educated herself on home births, what she equipped herself with in the lead up, how she attained her midwives and her advice for any mums looking at this as an option for their birth plan. And on another note, we love hearing your 'Toddler Tantrum Tales'! If your toddler has cracked it over something hilarious (like not being allowed to eat the dog food or crying over some broken eggs that they sat on) please send yours in to us @kicpod on Instagram. Voice notes and written messages welcome!

Cadan takes us through his masters thesis which covers the long and often misunderstood history of the drum kit. His studies included interviews with Thomas Lang, Daniel Glass, Steve White, Matt Brennan and many more which he shares in this episode. The title of his thesis is "From Double Drumming to Double Bass Drums" and we not only discuss many historical elements along the way, but the process in which he researched and documented topics which have no living primary sources and have multiple theories. Here is Cadans website for more info: https://cgidrummer.com/
