Joined by Mr. Kevin Farmer of the Barbados Museum and Historical Society, we explore identity, cultural preservation, and the journey of Caribbean museums from colonial-era institutions to centers that shape national consciousness and safeguard heritage. Mr. Farmer's insights illuminate the evolution of Caribbean museums, spotlighting their crucial role in giving voice to marginalized communities and confronting complex histories within their walls. We capture the essence of a collective awakening, when cultural policies and spaces like the National Art Gallery in Jamaica emerge, nurturing local talent and innovation, as well as national journeys to define identity through cultural institutions. We also tackle global resonance, the repatriation of artifacts, to discuss the wider challenges of decolonizing archaeology.

Die nordirische Hauptstadt Belfast war vor der Industrialisierung das Zentrum der Leinenherstellung und kam so zu  einigem Reichtum. Später wandelte sich die Stadt dank ihrer Lage unmittelbar am Wasser zu einem der wichtigsten Häfen, zeitweise stand dort das größte Trockendock der Welt.  Das wohl bekannteste Schiff der Menschheit wurde hier gebaut - die Titanic. Entsprechend geht es in dieser Folge um das Titanic Belfast, das ganz besondere Erlebnis rund um das Unglücksschiff. Aber die Unesco City of Music hat noch so viel mehr zu bieten.

Andre Johnson was Born in Decoy, St Mary in the Jamaica West Indies to humble beginnings. In his formative years, he experienced severe hardship and counts his numerous accomplishments as nothing short of a miracle and the dreams of his mother. As early as he could remember, he aspired to become a criminal defense attorney and acted upon these aspirations by pursuing a double major in history and linguistics at the University of the West Indies, Mona in Jamaica, and attaining a Bachelor of Laws at the University of the West a Indies, Cave Hill, Barbados. Andre had hopes to engage in private practice and to eventually open his own firm. These aspirations changed when he began the Masters of Laws program at the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University, Long Island, NY. He developed a strong interest in bringing an awareness to systemic racial injustice in the legal system and cumulative disadvantages that engender and perpetuates systemic discrimination against the poor and women of color. His desire to advocate on behalf of the voiceless and marginalized and practice criminal defense married with his recruitment and placement at the Knox County Public Defender's Community Law Office.

Are you listening Jeffrey?Unionism, especially its DUP component, has been talking up unionist and loyalist resistance to the Irish Protocol since before Boris Johnson dirty-joed them, broke his commitments to them, negotiated and then signed up to the Protocol.There is some evidence of this in the loyalist street disturbances earlier this year and the sacking of Arlene Foster and of Edwin Poots. The dramatic decline in the polling fortunes of the DUP, as it flounders about trying to assert its former role as the undisputed leader of unionism, is also linked to its stance on Brexit and its transparent efforts to blame everyone else for a debacle they helped create.Reclaiming the EnlightenmentThe best kind of history is that which successfully brings the stories of our past to life. Recently I had the good fortune to buy three little books that do exactly that from An Fhuiseog on the Falls Road, beside Sevastopol Street. The three are Mary Ann McCracken 1770-1866 – Feminist, Revolutionary and Reformer; The United Irishmen and the Men of no Property, The Sans Culottes of Belfast; and Cave Hill and the United Irishmen.Together they give a wonderful insight into the lives and working experience of those in the Belfast region who helped shape the United Irish Society of the late 18th century. They are all written by John Gray who is the former Librarian of Belfast's Linen Hall Library. John Gray has written and lectured on “many aspects of Ulster's Labour and radical history.”  The pamphlets are written under the auspices of ‘Reclaim the Enlightenment' which “is committed to recalling and celebrating that progressive era in Belfast's past. We are convinced that doing so can lend inspiration in the present.”

The demand for truth:One after another their faces appeared on my twitter feed. The very young. The older. Children and young people. Mothers and sisters and daughters. Sons and brothers and fathers.  Uncles. Aunts. Grandparents. Many with smiling faces from better times. Birthdays. Weddings. A night out. Black and white and colour images. The faces of victims – the legacy of decades of conflict. The response from Relatives for Justice to the British government's plan to close down legacy cases, criminal prosecutions, inquests and civil actions was simple in its design but powerful in its effectiveness.Cock A DoodleDoo!!:Discerning listeners of this podcast will know I love animals.

From North Antrim to Mount Gabriel in West Cork; from Slieve Patrick in South Down to Slieve Gullion in South Armagh; from the Sugar Loaf to Bray Head; from Cnoc Chamais in Conamara to Knockavoe overlooking the River Foyle in west Tyrone; to Loughcrew and Patrickstown in Meath; from  Carntogher to the Black Mountain and Cave Hill overlooking Belfast and at all parts in between hundreds of activists braved the scorching weather to climb summits and hills, small and large, with their banners and posters to promote the Irish Unity cause.

Health and wellbeing has become central to many of our lives with health-conscious consumers demanding natural products made with pure and simple ingredients. Immune health has garnered particular attention owing to the COVID-19 pandemic and the desire for people to choose functional foods that help support their immune system. The Caribbean has historically been a tropical haven for a range of plant-based or natural ingredients. It's therefore no surprise that the region is seeing a surge in demand for these natural products. With increased demand, the question of sustainability becomes of paramount importance, not only in terms of preserving the quality and potency of the product during production, but also ensuring farmers and local communities are not compromised or marginalised but in fact benefit from the surge in demand. In this podcast we hear from academics, food and drink industry experts and Caribbean exporters on the functional benefits of seamoss, more commonly known as Irish moss, turmeric, moringa, ginger and other natural products including gluten free flours and tropical fruit pulps and spices on what the Caribbean is doing to ensure sustainable practices and how indigenous communities are supported in meeting this growing trend for immune health.

Umeeda first went to Belize to volunteer with the Belizean government through CUSO International to share her business skills with youth. While in Belize, Umeeda traveled the country and met other people of Indian ancestry. She learned the story of how their ancestors had come to the country as indentured servants over 200 years ago. As they were sharing stories, of course cooking came up; one farmer showed her the turmeric that grew wild on his land. Their ancestors had brought the golden root with them! It was the most vivid orange and the best quality Umeeda had ever seen! After months of experimenting, she came up with the recipe for the world's first wildcrafted, whole root turmeric paste – Truly Turmeric. We decided to build a social enterprise that would support growers to earn extra income, employ youth, improve health around the world, and produce products sustainably. Our company's name comes from the district in Belize where our turmeric is sourced, Toledo and Nareena's name… Na + ledo = Naledo. Embarrassing for her daughter, Nareena, proud mom bragging rights for Umeeda.

Steve Wiser of Friends of Louisville Public Art furthered the discussion on the Castleman statue. He spoke against the possible move of the statute to Cave Hill, the misinformation that abounds about Castleman himself, and pinning people to statements or acts in one part of their life while not allowing for growth they may have exhibited afterward. He also touched on the graffiti abatement going on throughout the Metro and the groups working to limit graffiti in the future…

It's a wrap, folks! The Yardie Skeptics are leaving the building after yet another riveting season batting for reason and skepticism over the past few months. Thank you for your support!  Needless to say, we're going out guns blazing!  We turn our attention to that impenetrable wall between church and state. In the case of some states, like Jamaica, this wall is more like a sieve, where the distinction between the two is blurred. Does it have to be like this? Can the state operate in a context without being influenced, derailed, or hijacked by the actions of the church? Or must we in Jamaica get used to parliament being a part time revival tent?  Join us in this discussion along with featured guest Dr. Latoya Lazarus of the Sir Arthur Lewis Institute of Social and Economic Studies UWI, Cave Hill, who published an article entitled; "Religion and rights: Is there still room for Christianity at the table?" If that wasn't enough, we'll also be joined by veteran Jamaican journalist and champion Christian apologist Ian Boyne, whose recent article in the Gleaner, "Sin, Sex, and the Church" warned the church that it needs to "wake up!"  But hold the press! We still have more... a general in the #TambourineArmy will be with us none other than the firebrand Stella Gibson, who has been hurling brimstone boulders at the Moravian church in Jamaica after the sex scandal dropped earlier this year. Will her advocacy finally be the catalyst to change the rape culture in Jamaica's churches, or will her fiery social media persona ultimately raze the movement before it even gets off the ground?  

How many times can you repeat the word 'bum' in one show? Answer: as often as is necessary when dealing with the multimillion dollar asset that is Kim Kardashian's best feature. Our panel also reflect on the mental stress caused by repeated exposure to renditions of the song 'Wagon Wheel', and mourn the departure from their screens of UTV's in-vision television presenter, Julian Simmons. Jake O'Kane recalls the man he met at the top of Napoleon's Nose on the Cave Hill, and Colin Murphy outlines the dangers that await an unsuspecting male should he be lured into a ladies' lingerie shop.
