The Prime Minister is hoping to get bipartisan support for banning under-16s from social media. MP Catherine Wedd is putting the Member's Bill proposal in to Parliament's Biscuit Tin - the repository for such bills that are then randomly selected. It follows similar to moves in Australia, and puts more responsibility on social media companies. Former Facebook CEO for Australia and New Zealand, Stephen Scheeler, says social media is difficult to regulate - and there's lots of ways to get around a potential ban. "We've all been teenagers before - you're not supposed to buy alcohol or buy tobacco, and many kids get around this...but with social media, it's the same. There's lots of ways to get around these prohibitions." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode recording with Fintech Australia. Fintech has emerged as a transformative force in the financial sector, offering innovative solutions that not only enhance financial services but also address broader societal issues, including environmental sustainability, customer vulnerability, and overall financial well-being. Those objectives are heavily featured in the Research & Innovation Roadmap that we published 2 years ago. In Scotland, we have an important number of fintechs addressing those challenges. In fact, the majority of Scottish fintechs are fintech for good. Today we'll take some time to consider how those organisations are driving positive changes.    Guests:  Ren Hooi, Founder and CEO at Lightning Reach Robin Peters, Co-founder and CEO at Snugg Sheila Hogan, Founder and CEO at Biscuit Tin

Biscuit Tin won the COVID response competition from Innovate UK, being one of 800 out of thousands of applications which gave the business runway through the pandemic. With no marketing budget, Sheila used partnerships to get the business to market and has been on Dragon's Den which has certainly helped with PR and awareness. She used the media opportunity to cleverly run the true investment campaign in parallel and raised from a mix of angels and VCs.Since then, Sheila's been on a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs, with a large US investor pulling out at the last minute, the UK economy crash and then, an all-consuming crowdfund for £150K. Sheila is still on the fundraising journey, looking for further investment to propel Biscuit Tin forward.How to keep moving forward when it's tough raising investmentHow to get the most from PR opportunities when fundraisingWhy too many voices can hinder your funding journey

Sheila Hogan was inspired to start Biscuit Tin following the death of her parents. They had a Biscuit Tin full of papers, notes and photos but finding everything she needed was difficult and stressful. Her mission was simple: find a solution to remove hassle and stress when someone close passes away. Sheila was sure there had to be a way to ease the burden of paperwork, endless decisions and uncertainty that had weighed heavy on her shoulders. As the idea formed, Sheila built a strong team around her and gained early interest from investors and the media alike. In a world where there are digital tools to simplify almost every area of our lives, not having one to close them down seems like a glaring omission.   You can connect with Sheila in the following ways:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheila-hogan/  Biscuit Tin: https://biscuittin.co.uk/

Welcome to The Art of Memorialising - an audio newsletter by Peter Billingham from Death Goes Digital and Memorable Words Eulogy Writing Services bringing you the latest news on digital immortality, digital legacy, digital life curation and all things #Deathtech. Thanks for being here.Sponsoring this edition of The Art of Memorialising is MurialMurial is a startup with a mission to redefine obituaries into beautiful memorial websites. For business owners and professionals in the death care industry, this September, Murial is launching an exclusive new partnership program that offers huge incentives. See if their partnership program naturally fits with your product or service. Details are below.What Will You Find In This Issue?Speaking to the dead could become a daily conversation for some.What if charities changed focus in their efforts for ‘in-memory fundraising to the living,' and not the dead?When digital legacy planning moves from the realms of purely interest to absolute necessity. Photo by Melinda Gimpel on UnsplashWill bitcoins or your life story be the legacy of greatest value?‘Legacy is not leaving something for people. Legacy is leaving something in people.' Peter Strople.Being of sound mind, I do hereby declare this to be my last will and testament…And so opens a standard will in the UK. A legal document, expressing your wishes about what you leave behind when your days end. Your property.Your cash.Your collection of vinyls.Your NFT's and Bitcoin's.Your Candy Crush Saga credits.Your online betting wins.Your in-store/online loyalty points.    Have you made a will? Apparently, only 4 in 10 adults have. The pandemic created increased demand for will writing for sure. The wills, trusts and probate market saw significant growth in demand in the last couple of years. Still, many fail to action one simple choice that could save so much worry, and unnecessary problems for their loved ones - by making a will. During the last month, several newsletter sign ups (thank you very much) were from members of organisations providing information and support to charities for ‘in-memory fundraising.' Helping charities find innovative ways to encourage their supporters to leave a legacy gift to the charity in their will. You know how when you are thinking about buying a red car… you see red cars everywhere? It seems to be the same this month for me but with wills! I've seen so many links offering to write a free will for me! The Guide Dogs, British Red Cross, and RSPCA, among them. The Goodwill Partnership and National Free Wills Network provide the legal help to write the wills. I wonder? Are new A.I. innovations opening up opportunities for ‘in-memory fundraising' through life-curation, rather than death-preparation? Over the last six years, I've written and spoke about #digitallegacy. Honestly, mostly those who are in the #digitallegacy industry to some extent, find the subject as interesting as me! Most don't. And for now, most still don't. I think it is the same reason why 6 out of 10 adults will die without a will. You have to die. We just don't want to think about it or talk about. But telling the stories of our life, now, that's another thing.Increasingly, I'm finding people are more interested in what they can leave behind in the way of a life story as a legacy. Something they can do now, rather than later. There is a growing trend towards life-curation, self remembrance, even memoir writing.For example, Memories to Memoir–An Introduction To Life Writing, is an online course by Derbyshire Writing School. (For full disclosure, my daughter, Laura Stroud, created and leads the course.) While I'm incredibly proud of her endeavours (I'm her dad, of course!), what she is seeing is a consistent growth of people wanting to write their life stories to leave as a legacy. Most courses sell out quickly. Clients come to her for help writing their life story as a memoir. Perhaps it's more interesting documenting your life - than planning your death - however important and wise that decision affects the future. People are interested in leaving the story of their life for others, just as much as their possessions. After all, it is what lives in their descendants, in their DNA, in their personalities and their memories. They are leaving themselves in those stories.I believe there are enormous opportunities waiting for those organisations who can help people tell the story of their life. No end of innovative apps, software platforms and life curation services to partner with to do that. For example, see how Loom presents this idea to families.Leaving behind the story of your life leaves those you love with an appreciation of their identity, their heritage and self-understanding, and unique family history. Priceless gifts much more than any possessions you value. Who is out there ready to connect the opportunities of need with the solution?What's your thoughts?Please let me know. Email info@deathgoesdigital.comStartup SpotlightsLet me congratulate Sheila Hogan, who founded Biscuit Tin. They have recognised Shelia as one of the best in the business after being named as a finalist in the Great British Entrepreneur Awards. Well done Shelia! Despite her snub on the Dragons' Den, it looks like many others are recognising the potential in the product and its creator. Biscuit Tin is a finalist in the Start-Up Entrepreneur of the Year category and I wish her all good luck for the awards night in November 2022. Heard of a startup in digital life curation or #Deathtech?Please let me know.

Opening the fascinating article, Will Digital Immortality Enable Us to Live Forever? Artificial intelligence is changing the way we live, connect, and grieve. (via psychologytoday.com) Marlynn Wei, MD, JD, highlights how AI is helping the dead connect with the living. For example, how Nirvana released a ‘new' AI-generated song decades after the death of Kurt Cobain. As with the growing interest in writing your life story above, many people are curious to meet their AI-powered digital personas while they are alive. Wei sites the paper, ‘Digital Immortality and Virtual Humans' by Maggie Savin-Baden and David Burden, which gives three categories of these digital immortality ‘creators' - Memory creators, Avatar creators and Persona creators, and highlighting ways these tools are being used now by celebrities. Will the mass of population follow? Here's another link with the same theme. Death, resurrection and digital immortality in an AI world. 2 - Can The Dead Tell The Story of Their Living?A. rtificial I. mmortality is a documentary film asking, can AI enable us to live forever? If you could create an immortal version of yourself, would you? Would one day you like to meet a cloned version of yourself? Perhaps a better, smarter, and immortal you? Filmmaker Ann Shin sets out on a journey, exploring the latest AI and biotech with scientists and visionaries who foresee a ‘post-biological' world where humans and AI merge. The trailer of the film reveals how AI gives immortality to the living, albeit digital. The film is available in the USA and Canada, and I hope soon in Europe. 3 - Can Digital Legacy Tech Bring Our Loved Ones to Life After They Die?Digital legacy voicebots, humanoids and other tools are capturing memories for future generations. But what does that really mean and offer for someone facing the end of life? Joanna Stern from Wall Street Journal embarks on a fascinating journey in this documentary to discover the answer to the question, ‘What happens to our digital lives after we die?' She chats with Lucy, someone whose life literally depends on technology. Lucy has been inputting her life online for years, facing her life ending. She's organised so much of her life online for when she passes away. But what about the essence of who she is as a woman? That's what Joanna explores. This, movingly, tells the story of someone wrestling with thinking what those who survive us might find helping them after we die. Definitely worth watching.4 - What Happens If We Upload Our Mind To Live Forever? Will It Bring Resting Peace?The idea of uploading our minds to live forever was once the realms of sci-fi, it's now ancient history. It's a fact. It is here, and accessible to everyone. But would you do it? What would the impact be on those you leave behind? This is not a random upload, creating you, but digitally, a digital twin. Or a digital version of a loved one? Louis B. Rosenberg ventures a scary reality that taking this decision, our ‘twin', could soon feel justified in owning our life! (via venturebeat.com) Fourteen years ago, Rosenberg wrote a novel describing this throughly frightening utopia. Now it's here. He warns those considering mind uploading, ‘it's not a pathway to immortality.'5 - ‘Alexa, Can I Speak To Grandma, Please?' A simple request? Well, if Grandma was alive, yes, but what if she's been dead for years? Amazon is revealing its invention that could make it possible to ‘Speak to the dead.' But should it? And should we? In Amazon's new invention could let you “speak” to the dead — but should it?, (via inverse.com) Sofia Quaglia outlines the developments revealed at the 2022 artificial intelligence conference.SnippetsThe rise of low-cost pre-paid funerals (aka direct cremation) seems to be disrupting the funeral marketplace around the world.

How will you stay informed about digital immortality, digital legacy, digital life curation, and all things #Deathtech?Welcome to The Art of Memorialising - an audio newsletter by Peter Billingham from Death Goes Digital and Memorable Words Eulogy Writing services.The Art of Memorialising brings you the latest news on digital immortality, digital legacy, digital life curation and all things #Deathtech.Thanks for being here.What Will You Find In This Issue?The 10 Best Ways To Die.Fed up with playing Monopoly? Try ‘The Death Convo Game' instead! Do You Fancy Living Eternally In The Metaverse On Your Own Planet?Start up spotlights on Webacy and Chronicle.Photo by Ross Findon on UnsplashIs Direct Cremation Disrupting The Legacy of Traditional Funerals in the UK Forever?Transformational change is coming to the funeral industry in the UK, and fast. Will other countries follow funeral trends disrupting the UK marketplace? Are they already? Will this pace of change increase as families choose personalisation over tradition? How could this impact you as a traditional funeral director or funeral home? Let's dig a big deeper and see.Funerals have changed little in centuries. The traditional format of black frock coats, black hearse, and funeral services matching the same format and even the same words (insert name here) from the Book of Common Prayer has seemed the only option. But a secularised society saw the move away from churches and burials, to crematoriums and cremations. Yet for a time, the traditional funeral service stayed, but not so these days. The times have changed forever. How, you might ask?Back in 2015, Bryan Powell, a Funeral Director, and his wife Catherine, decided the funeral market was looking for something new, something that could suit the demand for personalisation and choice. Yes, price too was a factor. The increase in the cost of funerals in an unregulated industry was an issue for many families. So together they launched Pure Cremation with a plan to disrupt the industry. They certainly succeed. Synonymous with the word ‘vacuum' is Hoover. We use the one for the other so much it's become part of the vocabulary of life. In the UK today, it is the same with Pure Cremation and direct cremation. Let me explain. Direct cremation is, in the most part, an unattended cremation. This leaves the family of the loved one with perhaps the option to arrange a memorial service at a favourite woods, a beach, even the golf club where they spent so many happy hours.Families in the UK are contacting funeral directors asking, ‘Do you do Pure Cremations?' Mainly because of the multi-million advertising budgets Pure Cremation successfully spends in daytime TV and magazine advertising. One national Independent Funeral Directors Association suggests many consumers do not think Independent Funeral Directors even conduct direct/unattended cremations, and 77% of customers don't contact them to even ask! Going to online suppliers instead.That's worrying for lots of traditional funeral directors who may see future business disappearing online.Around 1 in 5 funerals, choose direct cremation. Partly because of the pandemic, 2021 saw a dramatic increase in the choice of a direct cremation. ‘And among those who organised a funeral in the last 18 months (during the pandemic), 24% described the funeral as a direct cremation.' (From Cost of dying Report 2022 - Sun Life)They predicted the market for direct cremation to become a growing trend of UK's funeral choice. The ripples of that change will have significant impact for the industry changing it forever.Of course, there will always be the demand for a traditional funeral. They can be a beautiful way to remember and celebrate the life of a loved one. But change, and that change digital, and online, is coming fast. This opens tremendous opportunities for those in the end-of-life marketplace who can adapt and change. Hold on… change is coming - fast! But how does your end-of-life business need to respond?Startup SpotlightsWebacy - helps you protect your crypto assets and social media accounts.It's a similar story and a familiar journey for many entrepreneurs facing personal loss. Maika Isogawa, founder and CEO of Webacy, looked for a better solution to the challenges he experienced when a member of his family passed away. Facing the complexity of digital legacy planning with multiple social media accounts and crypto assets, Webacy simplifies the process. What does Webacy offer?Deletion of your social media accounts on death. (If that is your choice.)Memorialising your accounts, even posting time sequenced content online after your death.Transferring crypto assets to those nominated. Creating a ‘Shoebox' - a place to store your memories (photos and videos) and thoughts for your generations who follow. DeathNotify™ - the simplest and most straightforward way to notify a death.Chronicle - Digital Cemetery Management SoftwareThanks to the team at Chronicle for introducing me to their new software for cemetery management.Unaware of the challenges as most cemeteries still keep paper records of the location of burial plots within a graveyard, Chronicle not only brings organisation and speed to finding a loved one's resting place, but gives an online presence to engage widely with society. Founder and CEO Matthew Borowski started the company after finding it very difficult to locate the grave of a friend. Cemeteries are the historical background of communities. I'm often quoting Margaret Atwood's words - ‘In the end, we'll all become stories.' Now Chronicle offers a way for those stories to be told. Here's an example of how it works. Visit Beechworth Cemetery in Australia and you can find a plaque remembering Jacob Hoffmann. You would know little of the story of his life from the words and numbers on his tombstone. But what a story his life tells! At 17 in 1864, Jacob left Germany and travelled to America and served in the American Army. Want to know what else happened? You can read it HERE. Thanks to Matthew and the team for letting me know about Chronicle.

I don't like to think about that - but it's probably correct. Or is it? Ready to blast off into eternity with plans to be remembered forever? Read on. Lifestory is a metaverse project. With Lifestory, you can upload photos, videos, and written stories about your life. You can also choose to have your Lifestory shared with specific people or made public for the world to see. OK, that's not so novel these days. But Lifestory is a first-of-its-kind project letting people tell their story in the metaverse with a collection of 5,555  unique NFT planets where you can document their memories in the Lifeverse. Memories as stored as nonfungible tokens (NFTs). If that's isn't a bit confusing for most, hang on! You can land on these planets in a user's spaceship! Confused? Intrigued? Read - Creating A Lasting Legacy With LifeStory (via Bitcoin.com) or watch the YouTube video for more details ready to blast off into eternity! 2 - Are We Getting Used To The Idea The Dead Will Always Be With Us - Digitally?Opening with the perfect quote by George Elliot - “Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them,” Alice Hinds writes an excellent article (via The Sunday Post) - More ghosts in the machines as legacy pixels create digital life after death. The insightful and in-depth piece considers many ethical and moral questions about the impact on grief, bereavement and dealing with the loss of a loved one in a digital age. She highlights Elaine Kasket's book, and also a new fiction novel by Sophie Cameron - Our Sister Again. With advancements in how we can ‘feel' in AI, some developments could be beyond even our current imagination. Well worth the read. 3 - Interested in playing The Death Convo Game - Let's Talk About Death?Labelled as Asia's 1st Death Preparation App - Bereev users create a central plan in preparation of death whatever stage of their life. Bereev Founder and CEO, Izumi Inoue, said, ‘Bereev provides a pathway for the end-of-life journey, and takes the stress away from those who need to pick up the pieces after we've left. When you're grieving, it's incredibly difficult to make major decisions, so we're removing that burden.' In May, Bereev launched The Death Convo Game. (via CNET.com) A world-first death conversation game to unlock the unspoken questions about dying. For 45 days starting in May 2022 - they offered the world the chance to talk about death, though answering 45 questions. 1000s are taking part. It will be interesting to see if they publish the answers. 4 - What Are The 10 Best Ways To Die? (According to a hospice staff)In a viral post doing the rounds in May, the care staff at Keech Hospice Care, an adult and children's hospice in Luton, UK, racked up over 30,000 views across social media. A few years ago, a palliative nurse, Bronnie Ware, became a best-selling author with The Top Five Regrets of the Dying. (And no… bungee jumps were not one of them!) The post gives 10 practical and wise actions to take for those of us who one day will die. And that's pretty much all of us, I think!5 - Ditched By The Dragons in the Den - Scotland's Biscuit Tin Digital Legacy Plan Gains A New Powerful Partnership With The Scottish Building SocietyThe Scottish Building Society has launched a new partnership with a digital legacy vault and planning tool, Biscuit Tin. (via Scottishbusinessnews.net) They will offer it free to its members for the first three months after they sign up. Watching the developments at GoodTrust, one of the major players in the #digitallegacy market building strategic partnerships for onboarding clients, it seems Sheila Hogan of Biscuit Tin is doing the same - despite the snub from the Dragons.

The pressure calling to me constantly to read the feed, the banality of some of content, the touched up, airbrushed, filtered images and messages of the rest left me wondering if it was the best use of my time? Yes, I know, it was a way I could ‘keep in touch' with my ‘friends.' But I preferred a chat on the phone, or a coffee together to do that. So I stopped.For seven years, back in 00s I worked in Kiev. Commuting there every other week. I know the city. I've walked the streets of that beautiful metropolis, marvelling in the history, culture and atmosphere of the roads where now people, many who are my friends, hide deep underground in metro stations and hidden shopping centres. It breaks my heart and I fear of the future for them.So I went on Facebook hoping to ‘speak' to some of these friends, and send support and whatever help a private message could bring. Just a few were posting odd pictures and prayers. Most were understandably silent. And the silence was deafening.As I was about to leave Facebook, I noticed at the top of my page a carousel of people's faces. Facebook suggested I may know some of these, as we have mutual friends. Two of them I know are dead. One, a colleague in Ukraine who passed away with COVID, had sent me a friend request a while ago. I never replied or accepted. It made me very sad I hadn't. I didn't know what to do. Confirm the request, removing it didn't feel respectful, so it's sitting there waiting for me. The other person tragically passed away just before Christmas. I'd watched their funeral on YouTube from a distance. It seemed a grand celebration of a life just cut too short. A spouse read a poem I often read at the funerals I lead as a celebrant. I said my goodbyes to them online. It was a shock to see these two faces smiling back at me. After all, who posts an unhappy face on their Facebook profile? I'm sure, if I returned to looking at Facebook each day, it would soon tell me to wish them a happy birthday at some point. Both of their last posts were an updated profile picture just before they died. Both of their deaths were unexpected. So was the sight of these faces when I went on Facebook. It was disturbing. Very distressing. They had memorialised neither profiles. My friend in Ukraine was single and had no family left alive. I'm guessing nobody knew or could change that situation. The other, perhaps they have left the profile as it is. I'm not sure. Two more lives digitally preserved in the Facebook Cemetery owned now by Meta - forever. This situation must happen millions of times a day. It will continue to happen - even more. Makes me think telling the world about digital legacy is a cause to continue. Sponsored Product - WhiteballoonWhiteballoon is a portal giving access to comprehensive information.

(via El País) Pointing to the first-ever drop in the number of Facebook's users - El País asks, is this a turning point in our online existences? What will mankind's largest digital cemetery look like, and who will access it? With millions of deceased Facebook users profiles visible, it brings with them the shock, sadness and grief that may be suspending prolonging bereavement, even making loss perpetual? What will be the challenges of this growing digital cemetery? I know now, these editorials and articles are not fiction, but fact, and it is a subject that will only grow. 2 - The Dragons Who Got Feisty Over The Contents of A Biscuit TinSheila Hogan, creator of the Digital Legacy platform, Biscuit Tin appeared on the BBC entrepreneurs funding show Dragons Den. She pitched her idea to the Dragons after having built a website that helped people to wrap up the affairs of loved ones who have died.While the emotional side of the idea struck a chord with some Dragons, the business plan offered no incentive to invest. The projected losses within the first years were eye watering high. Thinking the major players in the field would engulf the business, for that reason, they all ‘were out!'After the show, she secured a £300,000 investment, with Velocity Capital leading the round, alongside Scottish Enterprise and private backers. While a sizeable sum, in line with projected losses and the sums of other venture capital reported here, time will tell if it will secure the future of the business.

Will it become law? What do you think? It could have significant impact on privacy for dead people.4 - 100,000 Free Premium Subscriptions for A Personal Digital Twin®  from Mindbank.ai (Via The Free Press)Startup MindBank Ai announced they've joined the Council for Inclusive Capitalism with commitments to tackle technological and financial gaps through the use of Personal Digital Twin technology (PDT).

With its commitments to the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, MindBank Ai's goal is to ensure that they leave behind no developing nations in this digital transformation.“I'm living proof that inclusive capitalism works and MindBank Ai will completely change the paradigm for millions of people who lack the access to healthcare and financial inclusion.” – Emil Jimenez – Founder & CEO of MindBank Ai5 - What I Learned From Recording My Thoughts for an Immortal A.I.Interesting and thought-provoking piece from Harvey James (via SLATE) on ‘Mindfiling.' (Is this to be a new word?) The definition - Mindfiling is a central daily act of uploading data about yourself to be stored until the resulting model of your mind and consciousness can be reconstructed and uploaded into an artificial body. Another way of saying we can create a digital twin to live on after we die. In the piece, Harvey James discovered finding things to store others might find interesting after his death a bit of a challenge. Poignantly wondering if his great-great-granddaughter won't actually want a digital representation of him in the future. Maybe the business opportunity is being a freelance life curation writer?SnippetsIt seems we mention GoodTrust in every episode!

In this week's episode we breakdown the situation of former secretary of health minister Matt Hancock stepping down from his position, following the release of CCTV images of him and his aide Gina Coladangelo kissing and passionately embracing one another. The main stream media has written off the situation as simple breach of covid rules, when in fact something much more sinister could be at play, did he abuse his power for sexual favours? Was she trying to launch a political career of her own? Or are they genuinely in love?

We couldn't not share this part two of our travels out west last week - so here it is.  We talked about our accommodation, but we hadn't been in it yet.  Roo Shooters are replaced with Pig Shooters and lots and lots of scotch, biscuits, dongers and dancing.  We had a great time.  We really did.

It's our last episode of The Biscuit Tin Today - next week we start a new podcast!  Today we are in Narrabri in NSW and there is a lot of talk about hotels, toilets and biscuits.  All the usual stuff!!  See you next week for Awkward Gulley.

Ellen's kid still hasn't left home, and Mandy made some shitty pumpkin soup.  Today they talk all things dinner parties and celebrity chefs - here's a hint.  They don't like many of them except the gorgeous Jamie Oliver.

Mandy has had furry friends in her bed whilst travelling, and Ellen has spent a day in hospital where a young guy had a minor stab wound - before 10am - and winter has certainly hit.  They are complaining about it getting below 10 degrees - lightweight winter women!

This week Mandy describes a very strange massager that she has been given from Aldi, and she has been chomping on the biccies about someone who is stealing her facebook friends. Ellen texts her son during the podcast with an angry text - compiled with help from Mandy!

Mandy and Ellen recorded this episode last weekend while they were in Gunnedah in the middle of the mouse plague - but the mice stayed hidden from them!  They also talk about a run in with police, social media, Ellen's crush on Louis Theroux and how it ended and everything else that drove them to the biscuit tin.

There is a special guest on today's episode who sings for everyone, Mandy tells us what's wrong with her, how to make a good cup of tea, we reminisce about Glenn Shorrock and The Little River Band.  There's a lot of singing in this episode.  Sorry about that.

It was Ellen's birthday this week and Mandy didn't get an invite to her lunch.  Awkward.  Mandy also remembers a childhood bully and Ellen has vowed to find her and make her pay.  Another funny episode.

Lots of things have sent Ellen to the Biscuit Tin this week - taxation and snoring mainly!  The two don't mix.  Recorded at 7am with Mandy in full makeup and ready for a gig at 8pm!  She's busy!

In our second episode we cover some lovely things that have happened that we celebrated around the biscuit tin, and of course some things that pissed us off - wouldn't be a normal week without that!  Ellen also set Mandy a fashion challenge in revenge for the selfie challenge.  Stand by for that!!  Enjoy your biscuits!

What sends you to "The Biscuit Tin"?  The place where you go when you feel angry, stressed, tired, happy, bored, lonely, excited....you know the place!  The Biscuit Tin.  Welcome to our new series where each week we will talk about what has sent us diving into the biscuits.  It's always fun....and mostly sweet.

It’s World War II, and you’re King George VI of England. You fear a Nazi invasion of England could come at any moment. How do you protect the crown jewels? Not even Queen Elizabeth II knew how her dad did it - until recently.

Rabbit doesn’t want to go to bed, so he decides to kidnap The Dark and trap it in a biscuit tin so he can stay up all night long. But The Dark reminds Rabbit of all the good things that he does. “What about all the nocturnal animals,” he asks . . . “and surely you can’t have a yummy breakfast of toast and honey and fresh orange juice unless you’ve been to bed?” But the BEST thing about The Dark, of course, is reading a really good bedtime story . . .

This week, the young singer-songwriter SOAK, aka 22-year old Bridie Monds-Watson, meets Q Editor Ted Kessler in The Making Of bunker for a revelation-packed edition. She tells us why Derry can no longer contain her, what she stole from Avril Lavigne, why the title of her forthcoming second album Grim Town is just a state of mind, and how one day she'll resurrect her first band, Peeing In The Dark. All this and the feared/loved Biscuit Tin, too.

We find ourselves in the peculiar position of being optimistically excited for a Fedor Emelianenko fight.

I'd forgotten that I'd recorded this. It is a conversation with my Nan a few months before she died. Ostensibly it is about her biscuit barrel, but it is about so much more. I was collecting her biscuit tin to repair it. It is at least 65 years old and should last another 65 years. I miss my Nan but i did get the biscuit barrel.

Hamish is joined by the two Cal(l)um's to look ahead to the first week of the SPFL league season - with big games galore in all four divisions.

Episode Four "Still in the Hearts They Left Behind" In this Fourth episode we are joined by Tom Minogue from the Celtic Wiki to cover the period 1930 to 1940 in a decade where Celtic find themselves struggling for form and consistency. Despite the wealth of talent on the field in the shape of Thomson, Crum, Delaney, Divers and Lyon among others, the Club's “Biscuit Tin” mentality raises its ugly head as the stars are moved on instead of seeing the talent built upon. Champions twice, Cup winners three times and the winners of the Empire Exhibition trophy see Celtic limp along in a decade that promised so much yet returned little in the way of success. The thirties start off in tragic circumstances with the death of John Thomson and also sees the loss of Peter Scarff and Bertie Thomson, three huge characters in our history, lost to us in their prime, yet the team continue to produce talents that were the envy of our rivals. Questionable refereeing decisions and off the pitch political battles provides a backdrop to many colourful events that were to shape our history for the future. There are tales of North American Tours, fan trouble and boardroom clashes in a decade where the world was preparing for war during the Great Depression. There is also the History of the Stadium, History of the Celtic Shirt and all your Fan Stories and Confessions. As our Fourth guest, Tom nominates The Belfast Celtic society as the nominated charity and you can learn more about the “Team that Never Dies” at http://www.belfastceltic.org/ We are asking everyone that downloads the podcast to donate one pound, fifty pence or even a fiver for the episode, but really anything you can afford will be greatly appreciated and ALL monies raised will be given to the ten worthy charities at the end of the series.
