In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, Macky, Billy, and John break down the top cannabis news stories from the UK and beyond: Macky covers a major scandal in UK policing, as Commander Julian Bennett is sacked (again) after refusing to take a drug test. He also dives into two bizarre UK busts: one involving the kingpin of a cannabis factory network in Birmingham, and another where cannabis was smuggled into Cardiff disguised as Yankee Candles. Billy discusses the upcoming ACMD review of cannabis-based medicines and how the UK cannabis industry is reacting—some calling it progress, others fearing more red tape. John brings updates from the US, where Minnesota lawmakers have voted to decriminalize bong water, and Colorado's governor signs off on new marijuana and psychedelics legislation. Unfortunately, Margaret couldn't join us this week, but we've still got a packed episode of cannabis news and commentary. Join us for laughs, insights, and a look at how cannabis laws and culture are evolving across the world.

BBC Gardener's World Live runs from 12 - 15 June this year so the HortWeek Podcast took the opportunity to talk to Immediate Live horticultural director Bob Sweet and event director, Lucy Tremlett about shows past and present.After record attendances for the BBC Gardeners' World Live May Spring Fair show held at Beaulieu, Tremlett is looking forward to some 90,000 visitors over the four days. The main stage will feature BBC Gardeners' World lead presenter Monty Don, fellow presenters Adam Frost, Rachel de Thame, Frances Tophill, Sue Kent and Nick Bailey with a headline garden. Show designer Pip Probert and Plant Geek Michael Perry will also appear.Hot Off the Potting Bench is a new plants awards feature with up to 100 launches vying for the Peter Seabrook Award.Last year's winner was a hydrangea from Allensmore. Judges include David Hurrion, Boyd Douglas-Davies and HortWeek editor Matthew Appleby.There is also a garden for the 30th anniversary of the APL (Association of Professional Landscapers) and a stand for Plant Healthy to remind "visitors, the general public, gardeners should watch out for in their gardens about bringing plant material into the country".Central to this year's show is the Make A Metre Matter campaign "encouraging our audience to turn a metre of their space, whether it's their garden, whether it's a windowsill, whether it's balcony, and turn it into something that does something good for the planet. So thinking about encouraging a bit of biodiversity into the garden, or it's thinking about growing some edibles and reducing your food miles. It's just encouraging everybody to have a go".Tremlett says: "We aim through our show gardens here and through our exhibits to relate very much to take home ideas, what's achievable, and the things that people really can grow, do and grow in their own gardens...the whole show and its background going back a long, long time is about the fundamentals of gardening and we very proudly stick to those principles."Sweet brings a long pedigree in garden shows having run events with the RHS Chelsea, Hampton Court, Tatton Park, Cardiff and Scotland's National Gardening Show. After enjoying the 2025 Chelsea Flower Show earlier this year, he said: "it certainly warms the cockles of your heart when you see the expertise of some of the growers and what they've been able to achieve". On the podcast he reminisces about the impact he had on Chelsea during his tenure."There's so many aspects of Chelsea that I feel there's a little Bob Sweet stamp on when I go around...there's lots of little hints of my career left behind there which I'm very proud of" from the names of the various routes through the show to fundamental changes to the way awards were judged. He also lifts the lid on some of the more light-hearted aspects of the show and the mischief-makers he has had to contend with over the years. Hosted on Acast.

It's Wednesday, June 4th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Christians persecuted in Mali, Africa by military junta Christians are facing increased persecution in Mali after the military junta initiated a crackdown in May. The military of the West African nation dissolved all political parties in the crackdown. Jo Newhouse with Open Doors Sub-Saharan Africa said, “Christians in Mali have faced increasing persecution over the past few years. By closing the democratic space, and further encroaching on civil liberties, the junta is adding unwelcome pressure to an already volatile situation.” Please pray for the church in Mali, Africa. The country is ranked 14th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian. Ukrainian evangelist: Thousands coming to Christ A Ukrainian evangelist addressed the European Congress on Evangelism in Berlin, Germany last Thursday. Evangelist David Karcha reported that Ukrainian Evangelicals have been ministering to their fellow countrymen since Russia invaded the country in 2022. Churches are seeing thousands of people come to Christ during the war. Karcha said, “In the world's eyes, Ukraine is a story of war. But in God's eyes, it is a story of revival, a story that reminds us all that the Gospel advances.” 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says, “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds … and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.” American economy predicted to grow by only 1.6% this year The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development cut its economic growth outlook for the United States. The group forecasts the U.S. economy will expand by 1.6% this year, down from its previous forecast of 2.2%. Experts also expect global economic growth to slow this year in the wake of U.S President Donald Trump's tariff policies. They also noted, “trade uncertainty and economic policy uncertainty has reached unprecedented levels.” Dept of Ed. shuns homosexual pride month, celebrates Title IX month To its credit, the U.S. Department of Education is not celebrating homosexual pride month in the month of June. Instead, the Trump administration is recognizing June as “Title IX Month.” Title IX of the Education Amendments was signed into law by President Richard Nixon on June 23, 1972. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs. However, the Biden administration tried to inject transgender protections into the law. Under Trump's Education Department, the administration is promising to protect women's and girls' sports from such transgender activism. Muslim immigrant used flamethrower on peaceful pro-Israel group in CO An immigrant, motivated by anti-Semitic beliefs, has been accused of brutally attacking a peaceful pro-Israel group advocating for Israeli hostages held captive by the Muslim terrorist group known as Hamas, reports The Blaze. Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national in the United States despite reportedly overstaying his visa, is suspected of attacking a group of individuals participating in a walk in Boulder, Colorado at 2:00pm on June 1st. According to CNN, he allegedly used a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to set people on fire at an event in support of hostages in Gaza as he yelled “Free Palestine.” He injured at least 12 people. The victims ranged in age from 52 to 88 years old, including a Holocaust survivor. The U.S. Attorney General's office has charged Soliman with a hate crime. The attack targeted the “Run for Their Lives” group, a grassroots organization that gathered on Pearl Street on Sunday evening to support the release of the hostages captured by the terrorist group in October 2023. According to the FBI, the Jewish group chapter gathers weekly. Maya Bajayo is the organizer of the “Run for Their Lives” group. BAJAYO: “We're here only to raise awareness for the hostages. It makes it even more scary for us that it could have been us.” Amazingly, Bajayo, who has been leading the walk for 83 Sundays straight, refuses to stop walking despite the threat of violence. She explained why to Channel 9 News. BAJAYO: “To show people that we're still here, the problem hasn't been solved, and the hostages need to be released. We're just not going to give up on them.” Oklahoma Governor: "Life begins at conception.” During June, Oklahoma is celebrating a “Month for Life.” Republican Governor Kevin Stitt signed the proclamation Monday. He wrote on X, “Life begins at conception. We're committed to supporting moms every step. And God has a plan for every life.” The proclamation encouraged citizens to join the Oklahoma March for Life on Saturday, June 7. 10th anniversary of Supreme Court's pro-homosexual marriage ruling The U.S. Supreme Court handed down its Obergefell v. Hodges decision 10 years ago on June 26, 2015. The infamous ruling requires states to recognize same-sex unions as marriages. A new survey from Gallup found that 68% of U.S. adults support faux same-sex marriage, up from 60% in 2015. However, that support has plateaued over the last five years. No one shared why they like The Worldview in 5 Minutes And finally, I would love to know why you enjoy listening to The Worldview in 5 Minutes. Do you like the variety of stories, the reports on the persecuted church, the Christian worldview, the 2 Scriptures, the soundbites, the links to additional information in our transcript, or the occasional uplifting, positive story? Email me 2-6 sentences and include your name, city, and state. Surprisingly, I did not get a single email on Tuesday despite the fact that tens of thousands of people listen to the newscast or read the transcript. Send your email to Adam@TheWorldview.com. 18 listeners gave $4,202 to fund The Worldview newscast Toward this week's $30,875 goal to fund one-fourth of The Worldview newscast budget by this Friday, June 6th, 18 listeners stepped up to the plate. Our thanks to Joshua in Bolivar, Missouri who gave $30 as well as Rachelle in Longview, Washington, Margaret in White Salmon, Washington, Jeremy in Swansea, Wales in the United Kingdom, and Karena in Eugene, Oregon – each of whom gave $50. We appreciate Dick in Hoyt, Kansas, Hannah in San Jose, California, David in Plano, Texas, Adam in Gile, Wisconsin, and David in Crestview, Florida – each of whom gave $100. We're grateful to God for Hannah in Green Valley, Arizona who gave $132,Genevieve in Wheat Ridge, Colorado who pledged $20/month for 12 months for a gift of $240, Kristen in Columbia Falls, Montana who gave $250, and Luis and Patricia in Kyle, Texas who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. And we appreciate the generosity of Steven in Coatesville, Pennsylvania who gave $350, James in Cardiff, Wales in the United Kingdom who pledged $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, Patricia in Winfield, Iowa who gave $700, and Larry and Sue in Crooked Creek , Alberta, Canada who pledged $75/month for 12 months for a gift of $900. Those 18 listeners gave a total of $4,202. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum toll sound effect) $4,932 (People clapping sound effect) That means by this Friday, we still need to raise $26,873. We missed our goal of 20 donors on Tuesday by only 2 donors. In order to hit our goal by this Friday, June 6th, we need to raise $8,957 on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Toward that end, I wonder if there might be 4 Worldview listeners who could give $1,000. Another 8 who would pledge $50/month. And 12 more who would pledge $25/month. That would enable us to raise $11,800 on Wednesday. Maybe we can hit 20 donors today.

Sometimes, the best conversations happen when there's no agenda. This is one of those moments. With London as the backdrop — its history, energy, and unpredictable charm — Sean and I sat on the grass in Hyde Park and hit record. No script, no plan. Just two friends talking about music, memories, meditation, and why we still believe in experiencing things without a phone between us and reality.From yoga poses on park benches to tales of Clapton at Royal Albert Hall and an upcoming Oasis reunion in Cardiff (yes, really), this is a meandering mix of thoughts and stories — like walking down Portobello Road not knowing what you'll find. We touch on the lost art of being present, why live music changes everything, and how the UK's cultural influence shaped our creative paths.Sure, we dip into punk, rock, film, and a few philosophical musings about why Florence isn't featured more in books and movies — but it's all under one theme: reconnecting with the world around us. It's a conversation that could only happen in a place like London — rich with culture, memories, and endless possibility.If you're tired of content that's too polished, too planned, or too promotional… this episode is a breath of fresh (sometimes damp) British air.⸻Hashtags:#storytelling, #london, #musiclovers, #meditation, #unscripted, #podcastlife, #travelstories, #creativelife, #liveinthemoment, #punkrockNew episodes drop when they drop.

This week we're checking out the gayest show we've ever seen and that's saying something! Conor and Nico have a show with manic and small dick energy. And by small dick I mean big clit energy. You'll see. You'll see. Jim Florentine is live in the studio to discuss Nico's appointment at the OBGYN. Myster Magenta and Cardiff collab'd on a new song parody. Mike David from Redbar wants to give me money because he's a fan of my work on This Little Piggy… or is he? Jim Florentine is perplexed by the recent jokes Tom Myers wrote for his monologue. Opie is unleashed in NYC and Jim's instinct is to defend him for some reason. Jim doesn't always have the right instincts.

Cardiff City's 18-year-old right-back Ronan Kpakio was the surprise name in Wales' squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Liechtenstein and Belgium at the beginning of next week. Manager Craig Bellamy didn't hold back in his praise for Kpakio, who has only six senior appearances to his name, during the media conference in Cardiff to announce the squad. Carl and Daf were in attendance at St Fagans National Museum of History as Bellamy enthused about the qualify of other youngsters also coming through the ranks, and welcomed the return of the influential pair of Ethan Ampadu and Harry Wilson.

Ep. 155 : Un Cru d'Exception - Bordeaux Champion d'Europe !Le Pack passera presque sous silence la triste sortie de route des Lyonnais douchés à Bath et renvoyés à leurs doutes pour une saison en demi teinte ! Direction Cardiff le lendemain pour assister à la magnifique conquête du titre européen par l'UBB pour qui 2025 restera un cru exceptionnel ! Pris à la gorge d'entrée, les bordelais ont su réagir avec panache et renverser leurs adversaires du jour en alternant l'excellent et le quelconque. A égalité à la mi-temps après 40 minutes exceptionnelles, ils ont pris 8 points d'avance. Les Saints de Northampton, certes diminués par les blessures n'ont pu qu'assister presque impuissants à l'inexorable chute du trophée dans la hotte des Bordelais. Avec la confiance engrangée à Cardiff, l'UBB file maintenant vers un possible doublé et une revanche totale sur les années de doute... et sur le stade Toulousain leur bourreau de l'an passé. Cet exploit serait alors le CRU DU SIECLE ! Bonne écoute!Voici l'autre podcast de TK --> L'Année Sobre, un an sans alcool ! https://podcast.ausha.co/un-peu-plus-leger/playlist/l-annee-sobre-saison-3-de-un-peu-plus-leger-podcastHébergé par Ausha.

It was the European finale in Cardiff and Jim, Goodey and Bigs unpack an epic weekend of Champions Cup and Challenge Cup action. We dive into UBB's first-ever title and whether Saints were undone by early injuries, French power, or just Lucu & Jalibert magic. There's post-match beef, Alex Coles stepping up, and debate on what this means for some Lions hopefuls. Plus, Bath look ruthless in dismantling Lyon to claim silverware, with some controversy along the way. We preview the URC quarter-final line-up and try make sense of a chaotic final round in the Prem with top four still up for grabs. Settle in and subscribe on Spotify.

The boys are coming to you from the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, with live reactions to the incredible European Champions Cup Final between Union Bordeaux Bègles and Northampton Saints!While Ryan was working hard, shining on the biggest stage in Club Rugby, Max and Marc…were also there…watching…recovering from the night before and preparing for the night to come...The boys chat about the tries, the disallowed tries, the yellows, the maybe could have been reds, the injuries and the incredible support that both teams brought…it was some day! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We're in Cardiff to bring you immediate reaction to the Champions Cup final as Bordeaux overpower Northampton to win club rugby's biggest prize for the first time. Matt Dawson and Paul Grayson, who lifted the cup with Saints 25 years ago, join Chris to pick the bones out of a thrilling and chaotic final. They discuss the impact of the injuries to Saints duo George Furbank and James Rahm early in the game and the countless TMO interventions. Damien Penaud scored twice to finish the tournament with an incredible 14 tries, but who else caught the eye for the new champions? We analyse Henry Pollock's performance in his first final and ask if Saints' run to the final was a one-off or whether English clubs can continue to compete at the top end of Europe.

Joining us this week is a master of observation – an author, journalist and documentarian whose work has delved into the furthest margins of modern life. From conspiracy theorists to the inner world of psychopaths, his stories always keep one foot in the world of misfits and outsiders. It's the brilliant Jon Ronson!In this episode, Jon reflects on his remarkable journey from a bullied teen in Cardiff to one of the most distinctive non-fiction storytellers of our time. He shares how a squatting stint in London and a chance role in the Frank Sidebottom band helped him find his tribe, and how a single regretful sentence written in his twenties changed his entire approach to journalism.Jon also reflects on how being fired from a local Manchester radio station became a painful but pivotal moment that reshaped both his career path and creative outlook. He goes on to explore how his work has evolved alongside the shifting media landscape – from his early days at Smash Hits, to creating the acclaimed BBC podcast Things Fell Apart – and shares why he remains optimistic about the future of factual storytelling, even in the age of AI.Tickets for Psychopath Night, Jon's latest live UK tour, are available now. You can also catch up on both series of Things Fell Apart on BBC Sounds.For all the latest news, click here to follow us on Instagram!***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Haliey Welch, aka Hawk Tuah, finally gets the chance to tell her side of the $HAWK memecoin debacle. I can't wait for her to take ownership and explain everything she did to make things right with her fans who lost thousands of dollars. Wait, she doesn't do either of those things? Then why is she doing this? Adam Busch is on to discuss the worst question ever asked in the history of podcasting. We check out Stuttering John's appearance on Stutter Talk in 2009 that reinforces the fact that John is not a stutterer. Dalton comes on the show to tell us about running into John at a restaurant while John was on a date with a hot mess. Cardiff joins us to learn Adam was chatting on Rob Saul's show and of course Rob responded to mundane questions with accusations that we're gay followed by his fantasies about our love life.

Ep. 154 : Sprint Final - EPCR Finals + Top 14 Que ce soit sur la scène européenne ou en France, l'actualité est chargée et partout c'est le « money time » comme disent nos amis américains !!À Cardiff le Lou ouvrira le bal dès vendredi soir avec l'objectif de doucher les espoirs de Bath dans la « petite » coupe d'Europe, l'EPCR Challenge Cup ! Le lendemain dans la « grande » EPCR Champions Cup, c'est l'UBB après son succès sur le tenant Stade Toulousain qui a gagné le droit de défier la redoutable jeune garde de Northampton Saints, emmenée par le nouveau phénomène de la planète rugby Henry Pollock. Les Saints ont terrassé les Leinstermen chez eux en Irlande, un exploit retentissant ! Bien malin qui peut prédire l'issue de ce match qui promet des étincelles !!!

Will artificial intelligence help you do your job, or will it just straight-up do your job and leave you unemployable? Or will the future bring something else entirely — either between those two extremes or a world that we simply cannot imagine yet? And are we already starting to see signs of that future emerging? On this episode of The New Bazaar, Cardiff is joined by economist Nathan Goldschlag, Research Director at the Economic Innovation Group. Until recently, Nathan was Principal Economist at the U.S. Census Bureau's Center for Economic Studies, where among other things he led research on the impact of technology, including AI, on the economy. Any worthwhile list of the world's best economists on the subject of AI and work would have to include him. Cardiff and Nathan go through Nathan's own research* and also filter out the megaton of nonsense on the topic and discuss some of the work done by others — research, essays, meanderings — that they think is actually worth sharing with listeners. They discuss, among other things: How many businesses are now using AI to produce goods and servicesHow have things changed since the launch and popularization of large language modelsEconomic growth consequences of AIWhether “learn to code” is still good advice The skills that still matter To steer or not to steer the AI future* Nathan's research on AI was done in collaboration with a large team of researchers at the Center for Economic Studies at the U.S. Census Bureau including Emin Dinlersoz, Lucia Foster, David Beede, John Haltiwanger, Zach Kroff, Nikolas Zolas, Gary Anderson, and Eric Childress, along with program area partners including Kathryn Bonney, Cory Breaux, Cathy Buffington, and Keith Savage, as well as academic partners including Daron Acemoglu, Erik Brynjolfsson, Kristina McElheran, and Pascual Restrepo.

This special episode of the Tough Girl Podcast brings together three incredible women—Tori James, Jo Bradshaw, and Rosemary J Brown—for an inspiring conversation about legacy, mountains, and the enduring spirit of women in adventure. We're diving deep into the story of Junko Tabei, the first woman to summit Mount Everest in 1975, and celebrating the 50th anniversary of her historic climb. Despite her groundbreaking achievement, Junko's name is still unfamiliar to many. Tori, Jo, and Rosemary are determined to change that. In this episode, we talk about how Junko inspired a life-changing all-female expedition to Yala Peak in Nepal, the launch of the First Females Podcast (May 16th 2025), and the wider mission to highlight the stories of women who were the first from their countries to stand on the roof of the world. You'll hear about: Rosemary's journey to the mountains in her 70s. Tori's return to Nepal, 18 years after climbing Everest. Jo's vision for a meaningful anniversary tribute. The power of visibility, representation, and saying yes to adventure—at any age. This episode is a beautiful tribute to Junko's legacy, a reminder of the power of community, and a call to action for anyone ready to find their own summit. #MyJunkoJourney *** Past episodes with Jo, Tori & Rosemary: Tori James - https://www.toughgirlchallenges.com/single-post/2015/09/29/tough-girl-tori-james-first-welsh-women-to-climb-everest Rosemary J Brown - https://www.toughgirlchallenges.com/single-post/brown-1 Jo Bradshaw - https://www.toughgirlchallenges.com/single-post/2016/09/15/tough-girl-extra-catching-up-with-mountaineer-expedition-leader-jo-bradshaw-discussing-he Jo Bradshaw TGP Extra - https://www.toughgirlchallenges.com/single-post/jo-bradshawtge *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!
