Welcome back to the first episode of 2024. For this special occassion we recorded a Shed Session in front of an audience at The Bullingdon Cocktail Bar in Oxford with the incredibly talented Joely June. Warren guided us gently through this magical land of music and conversation. It was love from the very first chord as Joely, Evie and Phil reached out and let us peek into the mysteries of the soul. "Thanks for a lovely evening my man and well done on a great show. It was particularly powerful for me to see how everyone was sitting quietly and attentively listening - like audiences would do in the Greenwich village coffee houses in the 60s. Put everyone in a reflective and receptive mood. Quite a gift to bring stillness and focus to people as well as music so well done you

John interviews Serge Beddington-Behrens, an Oxford-educated transpersonal psychotherapist and spiritual educator. Serge shares his personal journey of growing up in a world of opulence and privilege, feeling like he didn't belong, and eventually finding his own path of spiritual transformation. He discusses the importance of letting go of false narratives and becoming more honest and open-hearted. Serge's book, "Amazing Grace," is a memoir of his transformational journey and offers insights into creating a more peaceful and compassionate world. Reach out to Serge for further discussions or support. KEY TAKEAWAYS The guest, Serge Eddington-Berenson, shares his personal journey of transformation and finding his true self. He emphasises the importance of connecting with one's inner heart and opening up to others in relationships. Serge discusses the need for a new value system in the world, where honesty, kindness, and generosity triumph over corruption, indifference, and greed. He highlights the connection between war, violence, and the suppression of women in certain societies. Serge invites listeners to reach out to him for support or to engage in conversations about the topics he discusses in his book and work. BEST MOMENTS "I was in the wrong part or, you know, it wasn't my tribe." "I fitted into that world where we were a bunch of hooligans who were a member of that dreadful Bullingdon club." "I decided to go on a spiritual path... that other kind of life drew me in more and more." "I found my tribe... I wanted to become an ordinary, simple human being." "I felt you see me... because I feel you see me."

50th Anniversary Special. To celebrate 50 episodes of the podcast, we recently held a live recording at the Bullingdon on Cowley Rd. The event was a panel discussion on 'Parallel Oxfords' with three previous guests taking part: multi-media and spoken word artist, Rawz; local historian, Liz Woolley; and author of Real Oxford, Patrick McGuinness. It turned out to be a fascinating evening with a free-flowing discussion that uncovered the real Oxford in all its complexities. Let us know what you think.https://www.patrickmcguinness.org/https://linktr.ee/forgottenstoriesoxfordhttp://lizwoolley.co.uk/
In a live episode recorded at The Bullingdon as part of IF Oxford, Rosie chats to anthropologist and evolutionary psychologist Robin Dunbar and author Max Dickins about friendship - why why we need friends, how many friends we can have, friendship breakups, the ambiguous language of friendship, the When Harry Met Sally (or when Sally met Sally) question, Jane Austen's observations on relationships, whether a close romantic friendship could ever count as ‘cheating', the differences between (straight) male and female friendships and the experience of people with identities beyond those binaries.

On episode 2 of the IYE Music podcast, Ady Hanson interviewed Silvi as he shined a light on her music so far. Despite having only played her first live show just over a year ago in February 2022, SILVI has made great strides in just over twelve months. That's thanks in no small part to being the owner of a voice that's so powerful and emotive it stops you in your tracks. Within her first year of live shows, Scottish singer, songwriter and spoken word artist SILVI has headlined the iconic King Tuts in Glasgow and sold out Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh, starred in a BBC iPlayer documentary about the grassroots music scene in West Lothian and had her single "Burning" crowned ‘Song Of The Year' at the Weekender Awards, as well as played throughout ZARA stores across the world and featured on BBC One's Football Focus. So far in 2023, Silvi has showcased as a Wide Days artist and has sold out 2 more headline shows in Aberdeen and Glasgow. As well as Scottish appearances, Silvi is headlining The Sessions festival in Manchester after being on the bill for this year's Stockton Calling festival and 'Tunespotting' in Oxford's The Bullingdon. Silvi showcased virtually in Mexico to an online audience of 1.6 million at Festival Marvin Gateway. Her latest release “Don't wanna love again” was BBC radio Scotland's track of the week in May. "A powerful and imposing style" - SNACK magazine “Vocals full of charisma and confidence” - Tenement TV "Incredible voice and very unique" - BBC Introducing

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has finally announced his resignation as Conservative Party leader after 50 MPs and senior colleagues quit over his latest scandal, involving the appointment of an MP to a top job even though Boris knew he was accused of sexual misconduct. But why has it taken so long to oust him, given that he has been embroiled in one scandal after another for decades? What happens now in Westminster and who is most likely to be Boris' successor? The Quicky speaks to a former British MP who spent nearly two decades serving the public to find out how Boris Johnson managed to rise to power despite a litany of affairs and controversies, and who is now battling it out to replace him.

This is one of our favorite conversations. Kevin Leggett spent many years working with young offenders at Aylesbury and Huntercombe, and he was deputy governor at HMP Grendon during a period of great change when there was a serious escape. Kevin talks about these times with great warmth and humour and his descriptions of connection with his charges provide a real insight into the meaning of relational working. Kevin Leggett is a now retired prison governor with over thirty years service. Although originally from Durham he began his career as a prison officer at the young offenders establishment Aylesbury and subsequently worked at the prisons Bullingdon, The Mount, Grendon (where I first met Kevin) and Huntercombe as well as having execurive roles for the implementation of policies in the south of England.'
What will be sacrificed to protect self-designated Big Dog Boris Johnson: the BBC, migrants, a swathe of civil servants or our God-given right to get drunk at work? On the anniversary of Joe Biden's accession to the US Presidency, has he already blown it? And is Russia really going to invade Ukraine? Special guest and legend of investigative journalism John Sweeney – of Panorama, Newsnight and the Hunting Ghislaine podcast fame – explains it all… and tells us about the time he ate kebabs in a mammoth museum with Vladimir Putin. “Having a Royal Family puts a lot of dead-end, right wing rubbish in the cul-de-sac. All they need to do is keep their noses clean.” – John Sweeney “You should throw the red meat to the dog, not the other way around.” – Marie le Conte “The worst thing about the BBC is that faced with the Bullingdon approach they go straight into pre-cringe, cowering mode.” – John Sweeney “We're seeing the Bullingdonisation of British society – where you never get caught and you never pay the consequences.” – Arthur Snell “When I met Putin his face was plastic, like one of the Autons from Doctor Who.” – John Sweeney “I thought, Oh God, I'm going to projectile vomit over Vladimir Putin.” – John Sweeney Written and presented by Ros Taylor with Marie le Conte and Arthur Snell.

När mästerregissören Stanley Kubricks kostymfilm "Barry Lyndon" hade premiär på 70-talet blev den betraktad som vacker - och tråkig - filmjournalisten Mårten Blomkvist hänfördes dock redan från början! Många filmer har omvärderats i filmhistorien, och uppvärderats efter att ha fått ett ljumt mottagande vid premiären. Men ska en utnämnas till filmens egen den fula ankungen så är det Stanley Kubricks "Barry Lyndon". När den kom beskrevs den som lång och tröttsam. Idag tycks alla tala om den som en svan, majestätisk, nästan den perfekta filmen. "Barry Lyndon" hade svensk premiär 1977. Det var perfektionisten Kubricks tionde film. Hans senaste film innan "Barry Lyndon" hade varit "Clockwork orange", en av 1970-talets mest omskrivna filmer. Det var en våldsam och omstridd framtidsvision. "Barry Lyndon" var något helt annat. Den byggde på den engelska 1800-talsförfattaren William Makepeace Thackerays roman om en irländsk äventyrare, eller streber, som tar sig upp i samhället i slutet av 1700-talet. Redmond Barry - som först efter halva filmen gifter sig och blir Barry Lyndon - spelades av amerikanska stjärnan Ryan O'Neal. Unge Redmonds irrfärder i Napoleonkrigens Europa börjar då han måste fly från hembyn efter att ha deltagit i en duell. Duellen i filmen utspelar sig i ett underskönt landskap vid en sjö. Man hör fåglar i bakgrunden. Det dova, klassiska stycket fortsätter att ljuda medan de två duellanterna höjer sina pistoler för att döda varandra. Den säger mycket om hur "Barry Lyndon" är upplagd. Det är en film som berättar om passioner, utan att själv någonsin röja några känslor. Ni hörde hur sjuttonhundratalskompositören Händels "Sarabande" följde sitt eget spår. Den fick ligga på samma volym, oberörd av att två män i bild ses försöka döda varandra. Så innehållet svallar av känslor men allt berättas med ett stort lugn. Allt är så vackert. Varenda bild är som en tavla. Allt är inspelat på plats, i riktiga slott och herresäten. Fotografen John Alcott inspirerades av 1700-talsmålningar. Han lyckades filma scener ljussatta enbart med stearinljus. Kubrick fick tag i en lins som tillverkats för NASA, att användas vid rymdfärder. Med den gick att filma i miljöer där ljuset var så svagt att man knappt såg att läsa. Alcott fick en Oscar. Kläderna är fantastiska. Den svenska kostymören Ulla-Britt Söderlund fick tillsammans med kollegan Milena Canonero en Oscar för bästa kläder, och scenografin av Ken Adam fick Oscar den med. Men annars hade "Barry Lyndon" inte mycket för sin skönhet. Recensionerna var negativa. Eller, de var respektfulla, men utan entusiasm. Vackert men livlöst var omdömet. Alla visste att filmen kostat fruktansvärt mycket att spela in och att den tagit enormt lång tid att göra. Det fanns nog en förväntan på något mer eftertryckligt. Det var traumatiskt att tycka om "Barry Lyndon" när den kom. Folk sa att den var tråkig. Ofattbart, tyckte vi som föll för den. Vi såg ett underverk: en total konstnärlig triumf. Hur kunde man ha tråkigt på en film som i varje stund pulserade av skönhet? Vi kunde inte få nog av "Barry Lyndon", fast var tre timmar lång och hade paus. Kubrick gjorde det inte lätt för sig, i sin ambition att berätta en historia som fängslar fast han inte ansträngde sig för att grabba tag i tittarna. Berättelsen var ju tvärtom väldigt gammaldags melodramatisk. Knappt har Barry stuckit hemifrån så råkar han ut för landsvägsrövare. Han tar värvning i brittiska armén. Han deserterar. Han blir tvångsrekryterad till Preussens armé. Han räddar ett befäl ur ett brinnande hus och får kunglig belöning. Han blir spion. Han blir medhjälpare till en korthaj, han ställer sig in hos en rik, gift kvinna. Ja, ni hör. Det är packat. Och allt berättas långsamt och tydligt. Och långsamt. I en scen säger en överste att Barry är en lymmel. Barry försvarar sig och säger att han skulle göra allt för regementet. Fast det är inte så att det glöder om replikföringen. Musiken var inte heller hetsig. Det är nästan bara klassisk musik i filmen. Som allt annat är den utvald med precision. Schubertmusiken spelades förförelsescen. Där kniper Barry sin lady Lyndon, spelad av Marisa Berenson, amerikansk fotomodell och skådespelerska. Det är hennes förmögenhet Barry vill åt. Hon har en mycket äldre vars död det bara är att vänta ut. Planen går i lås. Så fort Barry är tryggt gift, och bytt namn från Redmond Barry till Barry Lyndon, slutar han hyckla intresse för sin hustru. Hon får sitta ensam medan han festar vilt. Men Lady Lyndon har en son, lord Bullingdon, som älskar sin mor. Han blir Barrys dödsfiende. Efter att ha blivit brutalt utjagad ur hemmet kommer han tillbaka för att kräva "satisfaction" - det vill säga han utmanar Barry på duell. "Barry Lyndon" är en svart diamant. Här tecknas en mörk bild av människan. 1700-talet är en tid då det talas mycket om tapperhet, ära och heder. Men det är rå egoism som styr. Nästan alla Barrys känslor är spelade. Vid de få tillfällen då han visar äkta känslor straffar det sig. Människan är ett rovdjur i vackra kläder, säger "Barry Lyndon". Under åren efter premiären har "Barry Lyndon" sakta men säkert stigit i aktning bland filmintresserade. Idag är uppfattningen helt enkelt att Kubricks tionde film underskattades och att det är en av hans bästa. Kanske rentav den bästa. Allteftersom åren gått har det blivit tydligare och tydligare: ingen kommer att göra en sån här film igen. Ett hantverk i jätteskala - ingen kommer att få pengar till det, ingen kommer att orka. När filmregissörer talar om "Barry Lyndon" får dom något drömmande i rösten. "Barry Lyndon" är den fula ankungen som blev en svan. Mårten Blomkvist kulturnytt@sverigesradio.se
Join us for an in-depth discussion with David Cameron - former Conservative prime minister of the UK, and George Osborne, ex Chancellor of the Exchequer and David's right hand man. They discuss the real reason they wanted to stay in the E.U., as well as their friendship since the days of Oxford University and the Bullingdone club. They also dive deeply into the real world of politics, and we find out about the real relationships they have with Nick Clegg, Jeremy Corbyn, and William Hague in the House of Commons. David Cameron is a British politician who served two terms as Prime Minister. During the 2010 election he became head of a coalition government with the Liberal Democrats, with Nick Clegg serving as the Deputy Prime Minister. He has been credited with modernising the Conservative party, and has been praised with his deft handling of international and domestic politics. He instituted a referendum on the EU, in which he supported remaining in. Following a a victory for the leave campaign, he announced his resignation, and was succeeded by Theresa May. George Osborne is most well known for being the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and David Cameron's right hand man. They have been close friends since their days at Oxford University, where they attended the infamous Bullingdon club. A controversial figure, he was famously booed at the London 2012 Olympics, and presided over divisive austerity measures during the depths of the 2008 global financial crises. He is a well respected intellectual heavyweight within political circles. Credits: Producer - Jon Host - Peri Host - Harvey Guest - David Cameron Guest - George Osborne
