Some hauntings linger in old stone houses. Others cling to attics, staircases, or forgotten rooms. But every so often, a haunting chooses a person—and once it does, it doesn't seem interested in letting go. For Sarah, the first encounter came before she even understood the concept of a ghost: a man sitting on the staircase of her family's 400-year-old mining house in Cornwall, two dogs quietly at his side. Solid. Present. Silent. She stepped around him as casually as a child walks past a family member. Only later did she realize no one else ever saw him. Touches. Lights. Migraines. Names spoken in her mind. Objects vanishing. Spirits confirmed by mediums who knew nothing of her experiences. And everywhere she went, the same unnerving feeling: She was being noticed. We explore the unsettling possibility that the haunting was never tied to a place at all…but to Sarah herself. #HauntedLife #SensitiveToSpirits #CornwallGhosts #ParanormalExperiences #LivingWithGhosts #ParanormalActivity #SpiritualAttachment #GhostEncounters #HauntedSinceChildhood #ShadowWatchers  Love real ghost stories?

A group of Labour MPs with rural consitituancies have urged the Government to think again on Inheritance Tax Changes, with some abstaining on a Commons vote on the issue earlier this week. This is the ongoing row over the Government's plan to re-impose inheritance tax on farming and business assets over a million pounds, which was introduced in last year's budget and is due to take effect from April next year. Ministers insist the plan is fair and say its time to move on. The cost to arable farmers of this year's summer drought has been estimated to be £828 million. The think tank the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit says farmers will lose the income as a result of what it says is the second worst UK harvest on record, where crops were hit by a very hot spring and summer as well as the resulting lack of water. A pioneering project to help the crews on fishing boats manage the unpredictability of their earnings has been launched in Cornwall. Weather conditions, fuel prices and market demand can mean that one week crews will earn, but the next they won't, making budgeting tricky.  Citizens Advice Cornwall says its led to problems - which is why, along with other local groups, it's set up Net Savings, a government backed collaboration to help fishing crews with financial advice. And as part of our week-long look at winter jobs on farm, we meet a cider apple farmer who'll be tending his trees throughout the season. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.

Unter grauem Münchner Himmel, im Victorian House am Viktualienmarkt, fällt ein Satz, der das ganze Gespräch trägt: „My sense of humor is not offensive. You feel offended – and that's the difference.“ Ein britischer Gedanke – ausgesprochen von einer Frau, die ihren Witz fest in Bayern verankert hat: Monika Gruber. In dieser Folge BRITPOD sitzen Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Beling mit der gefeierten Kabarettistin, Schauspielerin und Autorin an einem Ort, der mehr an London als an München erinnert. Zwischen Teekannen, Silberlöffeln und warmen Scones erzählt Monika Gruber von ihren ersten Berührungen mit England: den Jahren in einem internationalen Büro, in dem ausschließlich Englisch gesprochen wurde, den ersten Reisen nach London und Richmond und einer unvergesslichen Nacht im Black Cab, in der ein Taxifahrer sie einfach nur als Gentleman durch die Stadt chauffierte. Von dort führt die Reise weiter an die Küsten Britanniens: in die Cotswolds, nach St Ives und Cornwall - dorthin, wo Dünen, Klippen und alte Herrenhäuser ihre bis heute schönste Form von Sehnsucht auslösen. Mit einer Reisegruppe aus acht „Weibern“, wie sie selbst sagt, erlebt Monika die Region zwischen Rosamunde-Pilcher-Romantik, Instagram-Kulissen und ganz realen, zugigen Ferienhäusern. Und immer wieder: britische Höflichkeit, britischer Humor, britische Gelassenheit. Zwischendurch öffnet sich der Blick auf ihre Karriere - von der Schauspielschule über ihre Anfänge im Bayerischen Fernsehen bis zu ausverkauften Abenden im Zirkus Krone. Dabei zeigt sich: Vieles in ihrem Leben trägt ein bisschen London in sich. Und England taucht auch in ihrem neuen Bühnenprogramm auf, mit dem sie ab März wieder auf Tour geht. Warum fühlt sich England für Monika Gruber wie ein zweites Zuhause an? Was verbindet bayerischen Mutterwitz mit britischer Ironie?

A decline in demand for whiskey is being blamed for the closure and suspension of Scottish malting plants - something which farmers fear will also mean a decline in demand for barley. Maltsters process barley so it can be used in distilleries or brewing. Several plants have announced closures and redundancies, but the Maltsters Association of Great Britain says that although it has a been a challenging year, they are positive about the future.The BBC Food and Farming Awards ceremony has taken place, with three strong finalists in the Farming Today and The Archers Farming for the Future category: Grazing Management who manage conservation grazing in Herefordshire; The Free Company, a farm and restaurant on a former dairy farm near Edinburgh; and Hugh Wragham who grows hemp in Northumberland. The winners were brothers Charlie and Angus Buchanan-Smith from The Free Company.All this week we're considering farming across the world, as COP 30 continues. We speak to a first generation farmer who produces organic mushrooms as part of an agroforestry farm business in south Brazil. He says its important for farmers to be at COP to push for financing for agriculture which can combat climate change. New rules on the size of oysters that can be landed on the River Fal in Cornwall have been introduced - part of a bid to protect future stocks of the shellfish.

Along the way we get leftover turkey tinga tacos from his new Christmas book, the reality of Australian road trips clocking up thousands of kilometres in New South Wales, cooking lamb beyond “the back of Bourke,” and a wild dinner where a whole “pest” deer is cooked over fire and served to laughing locals. It is a world tour of appetite, told with that calm, amused Stein delivery.Then he pulls us right back to Cornwall and the making of a food institution. Rick relives the chaos of turning a failing nightclub into The Seafood Restaurant in the mid seventies, flyer-ing caravan parks with a megaphone to fill tables in a ten week season, and keeping lobsters in improvised beer cooler tanks while local fishermen quietly pinched them and sold them back. There are shark steaks on early menus, mountains of hot crab in scallop shells, the birth of oyster chorizo shooters, and monkfish heads with beautiful cheek meat that British fishermen still throw away. He talks about closing in winter to travel and write English Seafood Cookery, training at college while hiring serious chefs, and quietly helping turn Padstow into a true food destination long before “staycations” were a thing.The episode also digs into TV, culture and how the industry has changed. Rick remembers the brilliance and self-destruction of Keith Floyd, the blokey, unscripted magic he built with legendary producer David Pritchard, and filming trips where they would rather stay joking in the minibus than roll cameras. There are scenes of chaotic kitchens with lobster tanks by the back door, early fame when the phones would not stop ringing after his first BBC series, and brutally honest talk about the state of restaurants today: 2 percent profit margins, fish so expensive it is almost unsellable, and a sector hammered by taxes and costs. He jokes about truffle oil as the tomato ketchup of the middle classes, explains why street food in India is often safer than hotel dining, and even tells the story of inviting a harsh YouTube fish and chips critic down to Padstow and winning him over in person.

Two explorers head beneath the Cornwall cliffs, expecting a quiet day exploring abandoned mine tunnels. But the deeper they go, the heavier the air becomes—until their gas detector slams to 100%, oxygen collapses, and a crushing pressure settles over them like the tunnels themselves are tightening. Then comes the sound. A harsh metal scrape, like chains dragged slowly across rock. Once… then again, closer. And beneath it, a steady, deliberate breathing that isn't theirs. With the air vanishing and something moving in the dark, they realize the mine isn't abandoned... Follow Be.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season, with interview invites continuing to roll out. This upcoming week, Toronto / Rotman has its Round 2 application deadline, and Georgia Tech / Scheller is scheduled to release its Round 1 decisions. Graham highlighted the upcoming Masters in Management (MiM) webinar series. Signups for these events are here, https://www.clearadmit.com/events The next livestream AMA with us is scheduled for Tuesday, November 25; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Graham noted a recently published article on MBA industry veteran, Dawna Clarke, who is moving to a new role at Darden. Graham also highlighted an article that showcases support for veterans applying to top MBA programs. He then covered three admissions tips recently published by Clear Admit. The first focuses on applying to MiM programs, based on interviews with some of their admissions officers. The second admissions tip focuses on the importance of post-MBA goals. The final admissions tip discusses how to address employment gaps when applying to business school. Graham highlighted a Real Humans piece spotlighting MBA students from Washington / Foster, and then we discussed the recently published class of 2027 profiles from Northwestern / Kellogg and Dartmouth / Tuck. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries: This week's first MBA admissions candidate is in the Marine Corps. They have a 3.2 GPA and a 326 GRE score. We are encouraging them to retake the GRE, to help compensate for the lower GPA. This week's second MBA applicant is from Egypt and working in London in the energy sector. They have a super GPA, but their GRE score of 320 is a little low. They may also retake the test. This week's final MBA candidate is working in human resources and is looking at the MBA to pivot to the non-profit / social impact sector. They already have 10 years of experience. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

Almost half of the seagulls flew away within a minute of being exposed to the shouting voice, while 70 per cent of the gulls stayed near the food when the birdsong was playing.What's your best seagull scare?

Episode 185 - Miranda (1948) "You've hated me ever since I set tail in this house." In the canon of post-war British comedy, there are grand spectacles and quiet character studies. And then, every so often, there's a film so completely, cheerfully absurd that it defies category. Miranda (1948) is one such treasure, a fantasy-comedy that is as polished and witty as it is delightfully naughty. It's a film that asks what would happen if a classic British "comedy of manners" was suddenly interrupted by a mermaid—and the answer, it turns in, is pure, bubbly entertainment. The story itself is a wonderfully silly concoction. Dr. Paul Martin (Griffith Jones), escaping his wife for a solo fishing holiday in Cornwall, gets more than he bargained for. He doesn't just catch a fish; he is caught by Miranda, a flirtatious, man-crazy mermaid who promptly holds him captive in her aquatic cave. His ransom? A trip to see London. What follows is a brilliant farce. Paul passes off the beautiful Miranda as an "invalid patient," concealing her tail under long dresses and wheeling her around his sophisticated London home. This is where the film truly shines, thanks to the absolutely enchanting central performance from Glynis Johns. Long before she was Mrs. Banks in Mary Poppins, Johns established her star power here. With a coy, kittenish voice and eyes that perpetually sparkle with mischief, her Miranda is a sublime creation. She's no innocent nymph; she's a charming siren who has every man in the house—from her "doctor" to the lovestruck chauffeur (a wonderful David Tomlinson)—wrapped around her little finger, or fin. While Glynis Johns is the undeniable heart of the film, she is bolstered by one of the finest supporting casts in British comedy. Googie Withers is perfectly cast as Paul's increasingly bewildered and suspicious wife, Clare. But it is the magnificent, eccentric Margaret Rutherford who threatens to steal the entire picture as Nurse Carey. Hired to look after the "patient," she is not shocked to discover Miranda's secret but openly delighted, exclaiming, "It's a mermaid! I've always believed in them!" The film is packed with witty dialogue and brilliant sight gags that never get old: Miranda's insistence on eating raw fish sandwiches, her casual snacking from the goldfish bowl, and a priceless scene at the zoo where she communicates with the seals. It's all so unapologetically fun, a droll and airy fantasy that was a smash hit with audiences at the time, and it's easy to see why. Miranda is a whimsical, charming, and thoroughly amusing escape that still feels as fresh and sparkling as the day it first splashed onto the screen.

Brodie Neill is a Tasmanian-born but London-based furniture designer, who has made a name for himself by creating pieces from waste and reclaimed materials. In 2016, for example, he represented Australia at the inaugural London Design Biennale with his exhibition entitled, Plastic Effects. In it, he showcased the Gyro Table, with a top made of fragments of recycled ocean plastic that had been salvaged from beaches in places like Hawaii and Cornwall.  Over the years, his furniture pieces have been made from dowels, reclaimed school floors, and wood found in some extraordinary places. He has also collaborated with brands such as Microsoft, Mercedes-Benz and Alexander McQueen, while his limited edition works feature in museums and galleries around the globe.  In this episode, we talk about: why he found himself in the Antarctic earlier this year; sharing a ship with over 30 scientists; the new work that is emerging from the 'adventure of a lifetime'; how finding plastic on a Tasmanian beach proved a pivotal moment in his career; creating the iconic Gyro Table; how he collects ocean plastic; creating high end products from ‘underwater' wood and old school floors; unleashing ‘material potential'; inheriting his grandfather's tools; day dreaming at school; and why he needs to be near making. And remember the inaugural Assemble with Material Matters takes place on 20 November at the Bank of England Conference Centre.

Graham highlighted the upcoming deferred enrollment webinar series, signups for all these events are here, https://www.clearadmit.com/events The next livestream AMA with Alex and Graham is scheduled for Tuesday, November 25; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. We then had a deep-dive discussion covering Wharton's Team-Based Discussion topic and how to best prepare. These interviews will be hosted by Wharton, virtually, over the next two weeks. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries: This week's first MBA admissions candidate is an entrepreneur with 11 years of work experience. They also have a super GRE score of 337. This week's second MBA applicant is an engineer with a great GPA of 3.8 and strong GRE score of 333. They want to transition from consulting to finance. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.
