Podcasts about Cornwall

Flipping Summer madness!!! Yeah it feels like this holiday has gone on for months already. We took in a bit of Cornwall and caught up with the UK family. Cornwall was a very wise choice as it has a microclimate that allowed a little escape from the insanity that London heatwave. You know what? I did a pretty good job of disappearing completely albeit without a full phone detox. I feel that might be needed soon. Someone threw out a stat that we only have 300 months of free time in our lives. Best not to spend all of that on the phone. Im such a sad addict at this point it's not funny. Anyhow that's beside the point. Back in the bubble of the music space, I made a little computer only setup in my space to see if I can't use it to focus on a different kind of making and perhaps even the FINISHING? Lets see. I go on about that a lot in the intro so I'll not linger on that now. Needless to say I wish you all fulfillment and success however that looks to you. This episode is with the excellent Nicholas Semrad. He's aheady had many a musical life. You may have seen him playing alongside Cory Henry, Lauryn Hill or Mark Guiliana. You may know him as a patch maker for Sequential or Yamaha. Perhaps you know him for his film and TV work. He's highly accomplished and a touring beast. Currently he's slathering on the make up on a 6 month Empire of the Sun gig. He's a total beast and yet a wonderfully humble and chill individual. Ive had micro hangs with him before on the road but never a long form one on one until now. So it's a treat to have the chance. Give it up for for Mr Semrad!!!

I bring Molly to a beautiful field in the English countryside on the border between Devon and Cornwall, and I quiz her on British culture. I ask a variety of questions on topics of behaviour, attitudes, cultural norms, and language. Play along while you listen and see how many you can get right too.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast386/

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the upcoming events Clear Admit is hosting. The MBA Essay Workshop series begins this week, on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and continues Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. These events will bring together an increasing number of the top MBA programs to discuss both their written essay prompts as well as their video essays. Signups for all events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted two admissions tips, published by Clear Admit, this week. The first focuses on how to make the most of a campus visit. The second explores identifying advocates, students, alumni and faculty, that can help provide anecdotes to candidates' applications. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham notes Q&As from London Business School, Florida / Warrington and Toronto / Rotman. 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 from Brazil and is a sponsored candidate with plans to return to BCG. This week's second MBA applicant is from Mexico and has an EA score of 154. We encourage them to explore taking the GRE test. The final candidate this week is from India. They have an outstanding profile, but their GMAT score is 645. We are hoping they can retake the test, while still applying in Round 1. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

In this episode of **The Industry Podcast**, we sit down with **Nicole White**, a bartender currently working at OPA, a Greek and Mediterranean restaurant in Waterville, Maine. Nicole traces her path through the hospitality industry — from her first job at Panera Bread and serving at Ruby Tuesday, to learning the craft behind the bar at The Speakeasy in Waterville, to becoming a full-time bartender in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Nicole's career eventually took her to San Diego, where she spent six years working at spots including Urban North Park (a New Haven-style pizza bar) and the now-closed Magic Dinner Theater in the Gaslamp Quarter, a speakeasy-style venue accessed through an escape room, known for elaborate, intentional cocktails like the smoked "Smoking Elephant" and a Manhattan served through a bullet-pierced glass. She also worked at a comedy club, giving her a unique window into hospitality under very different crowd dynamics. A pivotal early moment in her career was attending Gaz Regan's Cocktails in the Country in Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York, in 2016 — a four-day intensive she credits with shaping her approach to mindful, service-first bartending. The conversation also covers Nicole's deep involvement with **Camp Runamok** (Lush Life Production), where she's participated three times — first in the low-ABV Pathfinder cabin during her sobriety journey, then running the Suze-themed cabin, and most recently joining the beverage team, which included an R&D trip to the Monin facility in Nevada and a seven-day stretch making over 10,000 cocktails for 150 bartenders at camp. Nicole also discusses: - Moving back to Central Maine after her mother's stroke, and rebuilding her career and creative outlet from the ground up - Her certifications, including the ABCs of Canadian Whiskey and the Executive Bourbon Steward program through the Stave & Thief Society - Attending Behind the Barrel distillery experiences at Wilderness Trail and Wild Turkey - Her honest reflection on her relationship with alcohol and sobriety, and how that shaped the direction of her career - Her favorite bars and restaurants across Maine (Portland, Bangor, Rockport) and San Diego (North Park, Little Italy, Gaslamp) - Why she loves doing thoughtful riffs on classic cocktails as a way to make craft drinks approachable to guests ## Connect with Nicole White - Instagram / all platforms: @NicoleXTayl0r A big thank you to Jean-Marc Dykes of Imbiblia.

Cornwall is a corner of the world which imprints itself on all who visit, and few businesses are quite as synonymous with their origins as Fat Willy's, a perennial presence on the Cornish coastline.In this episode, Liz and Leila sit down with Co-Owner and Director Marc Ward, to retrace the steps of how a surf shack dream from the 1980s became a Cornish institution, from Marc's dad's original vision to how the brand has grown while staying firmly rooted in Cornwall and family life.

On this week's episode of You Are What You Read, we are thrilled to introduce the #1 New York Times bestselling author, Daniel Silva, with his latest book, RANSOM. Daniel's novels include the beloved Gabriel Allon series, The Cellist and A Death in Cornwall, among others. His books are critically acclaimed bestsellers around the world and have been translated into more than thirty languages. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Israeli art restorer and spy Gabriel Allon is as real as George Smiley or Hercule Poirot. He even has his own Wikipedia page. The CNN special correspondent Jamie Gangel describes herself on X as a friend of Gabriel Allon before she gets around to mentioning her husband, the best-selling thriller writer Daniel Silva who, of course, is the creator of Allon. As with all successful literary inventions, of course, Silva is as much Allon as Allon is Silva. Silva-Allon. Amongst the most lucrative partnerships in contemporary fiction. Unsurprisingly, Silva still hasn't managed to kill off Allon. Twenty-six books into the series, the retired Mossad legend turned Venice art restorer is the truest fake spy in the business — a character so real that Silva, who seems to revel in his insularity, has to lock himself away from imagining how readers receive him. Or perhaps he's locking himself away from Allon. In Ransom, out today, a billionaire real estate baron asks Allon to find his vanished wife, the dazzling socialite Alice Winter — who has, of course, a darker life. Behind Silva's latest summer best-seller looms Russia's shadow war on Europe. That's the post-cold war cold war politics of Ransom. Unit 29155, the GRU's sabotage specialists, are hitting pipelines and flying drones over Copenhagen, an MI6 officer describes the Russians as feral animals, and Ransom's climax unfolds at an emergency Downing Street summit with Zelensky without the United States in the room. It's a terrifying narrative as real as Gabriel Allon. Five Takeaways •       An Art Restorer Who Used to Be a Spy. Gabriel Allon was invented for one book — a 1999 novel inspired by the Camp David peace process, written like a demon in a cottage near Land's End — and was never meant to continue. Twenty-six books later, Silva has flipped the character's formula: once an operative whose cover was art restoration, Allon is now an art restorer who used to be a spy, formally retired and living in Venice. As for his age, Silva freezes time the way Christie froze Poirot: Allon is aging in reverse, quite intentionally, and Silva will write him for as long as people want to read him. •       Russia's Shadow War on Europe. The serious spine of Ransom is the campaign of sabotage and subversion that Russia is waging against all of Western Europe — the GRU's Unit 29155 hitting pipelines, running hacking operations, and flying the drones that shut down Copenhagen Airport and pushed Denmark toward its highest state of alert. One MI6 officer tells Silva the Russians are acting like feral animals, and the worse the battlefield goes, the more aggressive the sabotage becomes. Silva has been here before: Moscow Rules put him ahead of the curve on Putin in 2008, and Allon's personal war with Putinism enters its latest round. •       Writing an Israeli Hero After October 7. Allon is the old Israeli liberal establishment made flesh — secular, social-democratic, the Ashkenazi security elite whose surviving members now oppose the conduct of the war. Silva, an avowed two-stater, saw the change coming years before October 7: quoting his friend Richard Haass, this is not your parents' or grandparents' Israel. Allon, he insists, would never serve in a cabinet alongside far-right extremists like Ben-Gvir and Smotrich — and they wouldn't have him. What happened on October 7 was barbaric, Silva says, but this war has gone on far too long. •       The Super Rich, With a Judgmental Eye. It's fun to write about the rich — the jets, the expensive toys, the glamour of Venice, Knightsbridge, and Ibiza — but Silva does it for a specific reason: to draw the contrast between how they live and how the rest of us live. A new global super elite is checking out from everyone else, he argues — unwilling to pay taxes, to educate the young, or to care for the sick — so Ransom balances the socialite's world against an encampment of homeless seasonal workers on Ibiza. Britain itself gets the same treatment: austerity, seven prime ministers in a decade, and shires where nobody is doing very well. •       Pencils on the Floor. Silva calls himself a literary novelist masquerading as a thriller writer, and his working methods match the self-description: he lies on the floor and writes with pencils, keeping technology as far from the work as possible. AI appears in Ransom only because the plot demanded it — a proof-of-life photograph that has to be checked for deepfakery, in a world where even presidents fake pictures. The thought of asking AI to write for him prompts a simple question: what would be the point? A book a year since 1997, and book 27 began the day after this one was finished. About the Guest Daniel Silva is the award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling author of twenty-six Gabriel Allon novels, including The Kill Artist, Moscow Rules, Portrait of an Unknown Woman, A Death in Cornwall, and An Inside Job. His books are published in more than thirty countries. He lives in Florida with his wife, CNN special correspondent Jamie Gangel — who describes herself on X as a friend of Gabriel Allon before mentioning her husband. His new novel is Ransom (HarperCollins, July 14, 2026). References: •       Ransom by Daniel Silva (HarperCollins, July 14, 2026) — book 26 of the Gabriel Allon series. James Patterson: “Silva can really write, the bastard.” •       Moscow Rules (2008) — the novel Silva is proudest of, which put him ahead of the curve on Putin and began Allon's personal war with the Russian secret services. •       The Kill Artist (2001) — Allon's first appearance, inspired by the Camp David peace process and written in a rented cottage near Land's End. •       Unit 29155 — the real GRU sabotage unit behind the pipeline attacks, hacking operations, and drone incursions that drive the novel's plot, including the 2025 shutdown of Copenhagen Airport. •       John le Carré — whose George Smiley, Silva concedes, needs no advice from Gabriel Allon, though the two would have got on had they met on Bywater Street. •       Richard Haass — the foreign policy analyst and friend of Silva's whose line frames the Israel discussion: this is not your parents' or your grandparents' Israel any longer. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic. With nearly 3,000 episodes since the show launched on...

Today, counter terrorism police are now leading the investigation into Ann Widdecombe's death. A 28-year-old man who was arrested on suspicion of murder has been re-arrested on suspicion of commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.The investigation was previously being handled by Devon and Cornwall police who had previously said there was "nothing to suggest" the murder was politically motivated. Counter terrorism Policing South East said the change had come after “new information and evidence has come to light during what has been a dynamic and complex investigation”.Adam, Chris and Danny Shaw, policing and criminal justice commentator, discuss what we know so far.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we kicked off the show by celebrating the 500th episode of this podcast series, which began in March 2018. Through the series we have profiled more than 1,000 MBA candidates, and the series has received over 400,000 listens. For upcoming events, Clear Admit is hosting a special webinar event for international students, scheduled for this Wednesday, July 16, at 10AM Central European time. This webinar explores the value of a U.S.-based MBA for international students, as well as the logistics of moving to the United States. The Clear Admit's MBA Essay Workshop series is also scheduled for July 21, 22 and 23, and July 28 and 29. These events will bring together an increasing number of the top MBA programs to discuss both their written essay prompts as well as their video essays. Signups for all events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted a new £25 million gift received by London Business School, which will be used to help bolster their scholarship offerings. Graham also discussed three articles Clear Admit published last week, all focused on better understanding the value of the MBA. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham noted Q&As from Duke / Fuqua and IESE. Finally, Graham concluded the Real Humans Alumni series. This week focuses on an alumnus from London Business School, working at Bain. 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 from South America and has a 332 GRE score. They appear to have strong family-business experience. We hope there is clarity around their post-MBA goals. This week's second MBA applicant is from India and is a chemical engineer. They have a 665 GMAT score. We wonder if there is an advantage to retaking the test. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

In this second sponsored episode with Findmypast — the follow-up to our Genealogy 101 introduction — Jonathan Thomas and Jen Baldwin, Research Specialist at Findmypast, go deeper into the records, techniques, and stories that turn a nervous beginner into a confident family historian. The episode covers the extraordinary richness of the 1921 census and 1939 register, why the newspaper archive is the place where ancestors stop being names and start being people, how the Industrial Revolution left its fingerprints across every family tree, the truth about name changes and spelling variations (it was almost never Ellis Island), how to avoid drowning in common surnames like Thomas or Smith, the unexpected discoveries that make genealogy so addictive — including Jen's own Cornish mail-order bride ancestor, an Irish great-great-grandfather with two arrests across two countries, and Audrey Thompson the World War II rat-catching champion — and how to connect all of it to the great currents of British history. The episode also covers parish records, military records, DNA testing, the role of offline archives, and the mindset that keeps family history a lifelong joy rather than a frustrating quest for perfection. If you haven't heard the first episode, Genealogy 101, go back and listen to that one first.

Podcast — Jen Baldwin Also Referenced Genealogy 101 — Previous Episode with Jen Baldwin (listen first) Friends of Anglotopia Club Takeaways The 1921 census and 1939 register work best as a pair — together they bookend the interwar period, and used in combination they can anchor a family from living memory all the way back through the Victorian era. The 1921 is the most detailed census ever taken in England and Wales; the 1939 register is the only census-style record with full birth dates and tracks maiden-to-married name changes for women. The 1939 register is the foundational document of the NHS — a living document updated for decades after the war, making it uniquely valuable for women's research. ARP warden and Home Guard volunteer roles recorded in its margins bring the home front of World War II vividly to life. Less than 10% of historical records are currently available online. The other 90% live in county record offices, local archives, churches, and museums — and going to them in person, touching the original documents, is an irreplaceable experience that no screen can fully replicate. Names were almost never changed at Ellis Island. Spelling variations in records happen because clerks wrote what they heard, literacy levels were inconsistent, and people adapted their names to the culture they found themselves in. You are researching people, not names — and building a mountain of evidence is the only reliable way to confirm you have the right person. Common surnames are a solvable problem: search by address rather than name, find an unusual first name in the same family, use occupations as a generational signature, and use Findmypast's wildcard and name-variation search tools to cast a wider net before narrowing down. Military records are one of the most common gateways to unexpected discovery — attestation papers, service records, pension files, and medal rolls fill in the specifics of what an ancestor actually did, where they served, and what happened to them. The Pals battalions of World War I, where entire communities enlisted together and died together, are particularly powerful to research. Parish records predate civil registration by centuries — the earliest on Findmypast go back to the 1300s — and the parish chest records that accompany them reveal an ancestor's role in their community: tax records, poor relief, bastardy orders, apprenticeship documents, and more that have nothing to do with baptism but everything to do with understanding a life. DNA testing adds a powerful new dimension to family research — not as a replacement for documentary evidence, but as a corroborating tool that can confirm suspected connections, break through brick walls by connecting you to unknown cousins, and reveal migration patterns that the paper records haven't caught yet. The best cure for a genealogy brick wall is to switch branches entirely. Fresh eyes on a different part of the family tree — maternal lines, in-laws, siblings — often reveals the clue that unlocks the original problem. The answer to who your Thomas ancestor was is sometimes hiding in his wife's maiden name records. Replace the goal of a perfect family tree with the practice of curiosity. The satisfaction of genealogy is not in the quantity of ancestors collected but in the two-in-the-morning moment when everything suddenly clicks — and that moment always opens a hundred new questions. This is a lifelong hobby, and patience rewards it far more than brilliance does. Soundbites "She answers a mail order bride ad in Cornwall. She travels by herself across the Atlantic, gets on a train, goes to the highest incorporated town in Colorado at ten thousand feet, marries this man sight unseen. He dies in a mining accident. She waits a few months, answers another ad, gets on another train with her kids, moves to Nebraska. They shake hands, go to the courthouse, get married. That's not as unusual as you might think." — Jen on her Cornish ancestor Mary Daniels and the extraordinary ordinary lives migration records reveal. "Their name was not changed at Ellis Island. Did it happen occasionally? Yes. But not because someone at a table said, I think you look more like a Smith. Names change because clerks wrote what they heard. You are researching people, not names." — Jen on the biggest myth in genealogy. "I found a gentleman who fills the census in black ink — except for the marriage column, which is a giant red D that he has clearly spent a lot of time on. It's written over and over. You can see the imprint on the page. He felt very passionately about his divorce." — Jen on the 1921 census entry that is worth the price of a subscription on its own. "She volunteers for the Women's Land Army and the next thing you know she is the country's top rat catcher. She enters the competition, travels the country giving presentations, getting her picture taken by local media — the top rat catcher fighting to save Britain from the Nazis. Because we needed the crops." — Jen on Audrey Thompson, one of her favorite unexpected discoveries. "He gets arrested twice. Once in Ireland and once in Wales — the situation in Wales was a bar fight, quite literally, covered in the newspaper in a lot of detail. He ends up in Cork prison, then Wales, then Liverpool, then Pennsylvania. I know all of that because of newspapers, arrest records, and a passenger list. The records all connect to tell a much deeper story." — Jen on tracing an Irish ancestor through famine, crime, and migration. "There's only about a percent of historical materials actually available online. There are more records sitting in archives and churches and museums and little nuggets all over the country. Go to the county records office. Go to the cemetery. Touch grass. Actually get away from the screen — because it connects you with the past in a way you could never duplicate in an online experience." — Jen on why physical archives still matter. "The 1939 register is the foundational records for the National Health Service. It was a living document for decades after the war. When women got married from 1939 on, you have their maiden name recorded and then they would go in and scratch out the maiden name and write their married name over the top. For women's research, it's particularly important." — Jen on why the 1939 register is so valuable. "I went to the church in St. Dunstan's Parish in the East. They still have the same baptismal font sitting in the building. And the steps down to the Thames along Radcliffe Highway are still in the same place as they were in the 1600s when my ancestors would have been there. I believe I'm the first person in our direct line to go back to London since they left in 1635. That first trip over was extraordinarily special." — Jen on the moment family history becomes real. "In a Pals battalion, they recruited whole battalions from the same community. All those men were neighbors before the war. They went to school together, they married each other's sisters, they went to church together. You get this situation where you're looking at an entire village of people who enlist and then get caught up in a battle and hundreds of them die in the same night. This is more than just a pedigree chart. This is an opportunity to remember them." — Jen on World War I Pals battalions and why war memorials matter. "You make a discovery and you've been researching this for hours or sometimes months or years, and you finally find it. It's two o'clock in the morning and you are literally jumping up and down in front of your computer. And then you realize I found this thing — but now I have a hundred more questions. That's the bit that keeps people coming back." — Jen on the true nature of the genealogy addiction.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-aonú lá déag de mhí Iúil. Is mise Siubhán Nic Amhlaoibh.Labhair Colm Mac Eachmharcaigh, Comhordaitheoir Tithe Folmha sa Ghaeltacht ar an chlár Adhmhaidin ar RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta an tseachtain seo faoin difear a dhéanfadh sé dá gcuirfí 10% de thithe folmha ar fáil do chainteoirí dúchais Gaeilge na nDéise. Agus é ag labhairt ar na deacrachtaí atá aitheanta sna ceantair Ghaeltachta maidir le tithíocht do dhaoine le Gaeilge, dúirt Mac Eachmharcaigh go bhfuil na ceantair Ghaeltachta iontach gar do bhailte móra, agus go bhfuil an-éileamh ar thithíocht iontu ó dhaoine a bhfuil Gaeilge acu agus ó dhaoine nach bhfuil Gaeilge acu. Dar leis an daonáireamh deireanach, tá 172 teach folamh i nGaeltacht na nDéise, líon réasúnta ard nach bhfuil chomh hard céanna le ceantair Ghaeltachta eile timpeall na tíre. Dúirt Mac Eachmharcaigh fosta go bhfuiltear ag iarraidh ar dhaoine atá ag díol tithe faoi láthair an Ghaeilge a thabhairt san áireamh agus iad ag smaoineamh ar cé leo a ndíolfaidh siad a dteach. Dá n-éireodh leis an fheachtas seo tá Mac Eachmharcaigh den tuairim go gcuirfeadh sé go mór le spiorad pobail. Dúirt sé go bhfuil cumhacht ag úinéirí tí pobal na Gaeilge a neartú, dá mba mhian leo.Tá fear 26 bliain d'aois gafa ag póilíní sa Ríocht Aontaithe ar amhras gur dhúnmharaigh sé an t-iar-pholaiteoir Ann Widdecombe. Dúirt Póilíní Devon agus Cornwall gur glaodh ar oifigigh chuig seoladh in Haytor ag 11.40am inné agus fuarthas Ms Widdecombe marbh, i ndiaidh di gortuithe tromchúiseacha a fháil. Dúirt na póilíní gur ghabh siad fear geal Briotanach. Dúirt Leas-Phríomhchonstábla Póilíní Devon agus Cornwall, Matt Longman ag preasagallamh nach raibh bás Ms Widdecombe á chóireáil mar eachtra sceimhlitheoireachta agus nach raibh aon chúis ag na póilíní a chreidiúint go raibh sé spreagtha go polaitiúil. "Tá bleachtairí ó fhoireann imscrúdaithe coireachta móra an fhórsa tar éis imscrúdú dúnmharaithe a sheoladh, agus tá siad ag déanamh fiosrúchán fairsing ar bhás Ms Widdecombe," a dúirt sé. Cuireadh macasamhail moisc trí thine ar thine chnámh i gContae Thír Eoghain, díreach seachtainí i ndiaidh do dhaoine sna 6 chontae teitheadh óna dtithe le linn círéibeacha ciníocha, an tseachtain seo. Cuireadh an tsamhail ar bharr na tine chnámh i Maigh gCaisil Dé Céadaoin agus lasadh í tráthnóna Déardaoin. Tá úinéirí gnó, eagraíochtaí pobail agus reiligiúnacha chomh maith le roinnt daoine a bhfuil cónaí orthu i dTuaisceart Éireann ag roinnt a n-imní. Tá eagla ann, ag leanúint ó thrí shamhradh círéibeacha, go bhfuil an Ioslamafóibe i dTuaisceart Éireann ag dul in olcas. Dúirt cathaoirleach Chomhairle Síochána agus Lánpháirtíochta Moslamach na hÉireann: "Ní ráiteas polaitiúil é seo dúinne, is teachtaireacht eisiaimh agus imeaglaithe é dúinne, nár chóir do dhaoine bheith ar a suaimhneas anseo." "Tá an ceart ag daoine a gcuid traidisiún a cheiliúradh agus a gcuid tinte cnámh a bheith acu, ach sílim nuair a chuireann tú bratacha, nuair a chuireann tú pictiúir de cheannaire polaitiúil, nuair a chuireann tú moscanna ar bharr na dtinte cnámh seo, nach traidisiún é a thuilleadh, is fuath é go bunúsach, is imeaglú é. Ní cultúr é seo a thuilleadh." Dúirt sé fosta go mbraitheann sé go bhfuil tacaíocht ó na póilíní agus ó cheannairí eaglaise eile. "Mar phobal Moslamach, tá a fhios againn go bhfuil formhór na ndaoine i dTuaisceart Éireann an-fháilteach agus an-chineálta," a dúirt sé, ach chuir sé leis go bhfuil na cineálacha eachtraí seo ag méadú.gortuithe tromchúiseacha - serious injuriesfiosrúchán - investigation

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. While activity for this season is winding down, we do still anticipate a little more waitlist movement in the weeks ahead. For upcoming events, Clear Admit is also hosting a special webinar event for international students, scheduled for July 16, at 10AM Central European time. This webinar will explore the value of a U.S.-based MBA for international students, as well as the logistics of moving to the United States, getting a student visa, and staying for post-MBA employment. Clear Admit's MBA Essay Workshop series, which has now expanded to five events, is scheduled for July 21, 22 and 23, and July 28 and 29. These events will bring together an increasing number of the top MBA programs to discuss both their written essay prompts as well as their video essays. Signups for all events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted Clear Admit's weekly refresh series, which tracks the top MBA programs' announcements related to the upcoming admissions season. We then discussed an admissions tip that focuses on the impact of volunteer experience on the MBA admissions process. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham noted Q&As from Harvard Business School, Georgetown / McDonough and UNC / Kenan Flagler. Finally, Graham continued with the Real Humans Alumni series. This week focuses on an alumnus from Yale, working at Pepsi Co. 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 a chemical engineer by training, and wants to use the MBA to pivot to consulting. This week's second MBA applicant appears to have strong founder experience. We worry about the combination of their undergraduate record and their lower test score. This week's final MBA candidate is a software engineer from India. They have a 322 GRE. We think it makes sense to try to improve that score. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

With Eugenie taking a well-deserved break, Marcus Fernandez is joined by Dion Tabrett and Mike Bridger for an open discussion on some of the most common myths and misconceptions in homeopathy. Drawing on their clinical experience, they explore topics such as antidoting remedies with coffee or menthol, the use of single versus multiple remedies, and why potency selection is often about fine-tuning rather than strength. The conversation highlights the highly individual nature of homeopathic treatment and challenges many of the rigid rules that have persisted over the years. They also reflect on aggravations, the importance of practitioner experience in complex cases, and their perspectives on machine-made and pharmacy-made remedies. Episode Highlights: 02:59 - The Coffee and Mint Myth 05:50 - Individuality in Homeopathy 09:09 - What Are Your Remedy No-Nos? 11:53 - Machine-Made vs. Pharmacy Remedies 19:13 - Can Homeopathy Cause Harm? 27:41 - One Remedy at a Time? 30:44 - Not Every Case Is One Remedy 33:46 - Potency Considerations 35:59 - Potency Is Fine Tuning 39:19 - The Flexibility of LM Prescribing 41:53 - All She Had Was 6C 44:13 - Beyond Allopathic Thinking About my Guests: Dion Tabrett, MCH, MSc, is a British homeopath, educator, and author who graduated from the London College of Homoeopathy in 1992 and earned the Member of the College of Homoeopathy (MCH) qualification in 1994. He later obtained a BSc (Hons) in Natural Sciences and an MSc in Molecular Biology from the Open University, with studies focused on human anatomy, physiology, and pathology. Over his career, he has run clinics in Berkshire, Cornwall, Devon, London, and Bristol, and has taught undergraduate and postgraduate homeopathy in the UK and internationally, including in Ireland, Istanbul, and New York. Tabrett is known for his work in case analysis, materia medica, and organopathic medicine, and is the author of the 2017 book Burnett Rediscovered, which explores the clinical strategies and prescribing methods of the classical homeopath James Compton Burnett. Mike Bridger has been practising homeopathy for over 35 years and teaching for almost as long. He is the founder and principal of the Contemporary College of Homeopathy and lectures at other homeopathic colleges across the world. He has extensive experience working in medical centres, alongside GPs and health workers, which has led to his highly informed and integrative approach to practice. Mike is particularly interested in mental and emotional health issues and specialises in stress and burnout, and the related conditions such as heart and circulatory problems, depression, hormonal imbalances and chronic fatigue. He has also become well renowned for his in-depth knowledge on case mapping and remedy relationships.

rWotD Episode 3347: Atlantic Coast Line (Cornwall) Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Friday, 3 July 2026, is Atlantic Coast Line (Cornwall).The Atlantic Coast Line is a 20+3⁄4-mile (33 km) railway branch line in Cornwall which runs from the coastal town of Par, to the Atlantic Ocean at Newquay. The line sees use for freight and passenger traffic, with both local passenger services, as well as seasonal long distance services from Newquay to London via Par.As part of the Mid Cornwall Metro project, the line and many of its stations are currently undergoing works to improve service frequency. Another aim of the project is to provide a continuous service that runs from Newquay to Par along the line, then on to the Cornish Main Line on to Falmouth on the Maritime Line.The line operates a community railway passenger service but the line is not itself a community railway due to its freight traffic.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:32 UTC on Friday, 3 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Atlantic Coast Line (Cornwall) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Danielle.

This week the Bad Dads take a midweek spin of the Amazon Prime roulette wheel and land on The Bad Education Movie, the 2015 big-screen send-off for Jack Whitehall's BBC Three sitcom. Sidey is not thrilled. Reegs has seen some of it before. Cris has only caught the ending. Dan is mostly wondering how all this happened.What We CoveredAmazon Prime roulette: With no planned theme and a hectic week, the Dads pick numbers, scroll through Prime, and end up with The Bad Education Movie.Sidey vs Jack Whitehall: Sidey clarifies that Jack Whitehall may be lovely in real life, but the posh, fumbling, “I've said a swear word” comic persona absolutely grates.The sitcom-to-film set-up: A BBC Three comedy becomes a feature-length send-off, following teacher Alfie Wickers and his suspiciously adult-looking class.Amsterdam chaos: Mushrooms, the Anne Frank museum, a stolen model, E.T. bicycle imagery, and an early sign of the film's comic level.Classroom carnage: Harry Enfield appears, the PTA are unimpressed, and a hamster gag goes full Richard Gere.Cornwall instead of Vegas: The school trip ends up around the Eden Project rather than the intended big blow-out, with Cornish stereotypes and a fake liberation movement driving the plot.Running gags: Fencing, the unfinished C-L-A tattoo, the tourist helicopter, gentrification, Tarquin, and the Cornish Liberation Army all get set up and paid off — just not, in the Dads' view, amusingly.Gross-out humour: The relic/foreskin/pork-scratching gag, the Cornish strip club, zip-lining nudity, and repeated close-ups of Jack Whitehall's anatomy take the film firmly into loud juvenile territory.The cast: The Dads note a surprisingly large cast, including Harry Enfield, Iain Glen, Matthew Horne and Clarke Peters, while repeatedly asking why some of them are in this.The broader Whitehall question: The episode detours into Jack Whitehall's mainstream TV appeal, his safe-bet presenting persona, American audiences, and Michael Whitehall's industry background.Key Quotes / Moments“There's only so good that somebody can make you look.”“This was chosen in a sort of lottery-type fashion.”“I'm sure he's very nice… but I don't find him funny.”“This makes Brothers Grimsby look quite nuanced.”“All the jokes that they set up, they do pay off. They're just not funny.”“Top five worst things I've watched for the pod.”“Strong avoid for me.”VerdictA strong avoid. Sidey finds the film loud, juvenile, exhausting and almost entirely unfunny, placing it among the worst things watched for the podcast. Dan agrees with a strong avoid, Reegs recognises the sitcom background but does not rescue it, and Cris' “strong recommend?” is pure mischief.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us. We'll read out any texts we receive on the show. Click here to try it out!We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. If it hasn't been completely destroyed yet you can usually find us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review, on email at baddadsjsy@gmail.com or on our website baddadsfilm.com. Until next time, we remain... Bad Dads

 New royal financial figures have sparked an unexpected question: is Prince William now wealthier than the King? We explain the £1.2 billion Duchy of Cornwall, why William's fortune isn't quite what it seems, and why critics say King Charles' “slimmed-down monarchy” is costing more than ever. Plus, Piers Morgan weighs in on Prince Harry's expected return to Britain, and new reports claim Netflix cameras could accompany the Sussexes during their visit.Palace Intrigue is a daily British royal family podcast covering King Charles, Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, Kate Middleton and the House of Windsor.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. While activity for this season is winding down, UPenn / Wharton is scheduled to release their deferred admissions decisions this upcoming week. We do still anticipate a little more waitlist movement in the weeks ahead. Graham noted that the MBA Essay Workshop series has expanded to five events, scheduled for July 21, 22 and 23, and July 28 and 29. These events will bring together an increasing number of the top MBA programs to discuss both their written essay prompts as well as their video essays.

This webinar will explore the value of a U.S.-based MBA for international students, as well as the logistics of moving to the United States. Signups for all events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted two MBA news stories from this past week. Geoffrey Garrett at USC / Marshall is stepping down from his role as Dean, with Andrew Call taking the helm as interim.  In a similar vein, UVA / Darden announced the appointment of Yael Grushka-Cockayne as the next dean. Graham also shared an admissions tip that Clear Admit recently published focused on the importance of a candidate's career goals, and a recently published review of MBA Alumni in Consulting and how they value the MBA. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham noted Q&As from Northwestern / Kellogg, CMU / Tepper and Cambridge / Judge. Finally, Graham continued with the Real Humans Alumni series. This week focuses on two alumni: Owen / LEK Consulting and Tuck / BCG. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries and one DecisionWire entry. This week's first MBA admissions candidate has founder experience and is also a director of operations. They have a GRE score of 330. This week's second MBA applicant has a strong academic record and a very decent looking professional pathway. We discuss whether they should waive the test. This week's final MBA candidate is deciding between Sloan, Columbia and Booth. They are a deferred admissions candidate. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

High above an ancient Cornish church, something waits in the gathering dusk.In 1976, terrified witnesses reported seeing a towering winged figure perched upon the church tower at Mawnan Smith. With glowing eyes, vast feathered wings, and a shape that seemed both human and owl, the creature would become one of Britain's most enduring modern mysteries: the Owlman of Mawnan.Join Owen Staton as we journey into the shadowed woodlands of Cornwall, where ancient trees crowd forgotten paths and old stones hold older secrets. Together we'll explore the chilling encounters, the folklore of the night, and the unsettling feeling that sometimes, when darkness falls, something may be watching from above.So settle by the fire, listen to the wind beyond the window, and keep your eyes on the sky.Because tonight, we enter the woods beneath the church tower… and search for the Owlman.Welcome to The Time Between Times.Take careOwen x www.welshstoryteller.comwww.ko-fi.com/owenstatonwww.patreon.com/owenstaton7

In this Meaningful Money Q&A episode, Pete Matthew and Roger Weeks answer six listener questions on UK personal finance - from gifting money to children using the 'normal expenditure out of income' rules to whether ISA withdrawals can support one-off big spends. They also cover pension consolidation and FSCS protection, investing while living abroad, how DB pension accrual affects SIPP annual allowance, and how to bridge the gap to State Pension without over-relying on AVCs. Finally, they tackle the practical steps to opening a Stocks and Shares ISA - and how to get started with confidence. Practical, jargon-free guidance for UK savers and investors navigating pensions, ISAs, tax and retirement planning. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA53  02:35  Question 1 Hi Pete and Roger, I have followed meaningful money for around 6 years now and it has been an invaluable source of sensible advice which I have followed. This has left my wife and I in a very good situation for retirement as you will see below. You deserve an MBE at least!. Love the double act with Roger as well. I am 62 and my wife is 60 years young. Our total pensions will be around 35K a year which is all we need for our basic living cost and general going out etc. We have a house worth £750K with no mortgage and no debts. I have a DC pension around £920K and my wife around £650K and our two boys have just moved out of our house and so we are now retiring and relearning life B.C. (Before Children). I have begun looking into gifting them money out of excess income. I like the idea of giving with warm hands - and strangely so do my boys! Putting our scenario into google gemini, using UFPLS with regular drawdowns and keeping within the current 20% tax band we could each have around 50K income after tax over the next 30 years. Really cannot see us spending more than 40K/year travelling and this will certainly reduce in time as we get older and so will give the increasing excess to our kids. To keep HMRC documentation simple (hmm) we plan to use our joint account to give gifts to the boys but I am guessing that we will need to prove to HMRC that we have equal income to do this? So my wife will take 8.5K less from her DC pension than I from mine. I hope this all makes sense. I presume if our incomes were not balanced we would have to pay out from our individual accounts and document both for HMRC purposes? In addition I have 200K and my wife around £150K in ISAs and savings . I know we can each gift 3000/year from the ISA as well as using excess income from our pension. Again, I asked google gemini about this and apparently I can use the ISA for certain capital payments. Eg a) to buy a new car b) redo bathroom/bedroom c) a large holiday  Not sure what would be the position if we said our largest holiday each year is paid from an ISA and any other holidays are from our pension income and we still gift excess to the kids? - seems a very grey area. I am sure in time HMRC will look closer into this area. So I think it will be sensible to still use the ISA in the next few years and not take everything from the pension and possibly change to funds from accumulation to income as well? One last thought as all this is based on the current tax rates. The IHT rate NRB has not changed since 2009 and would be worth around £530K today and I am presuming there will be increasing pressure to raise this given house price growth and especially after 2027 when pensions are included in the estate for IHT? Best Regards, Bill   09:37  Question 2 Dear Pete and Roger, I can't thank you enough for the excellent free content you put out into the world. I recently got diagnosed with a degenerative condition which will affect me and my family down the line. Your podcast has inspired me to take control of my finances including putting the right protections (insurances) in place and using investing to help navigate a more uncertain future - THANK YOU! The information is accessible and you guys make me chuckle as I go about my day! My question... I am keen to make my life easy when it comes to managing my finances but I have hit a wrinkle in my plan. My preference would be to consolidate my pension into as few pension accounts and underlying funds as possible.  To me the levels of protection available through the FSCS seem too low to be compatible with keeping a pension all with one provider. Am I missing something? How do you think about balancing this risk, without ending up with lots of pension accounts with different providers? Additionally, I have been selecting the same low cost All-World tracker ETF across my family's ISAs and SIPPs, is this inherently risky too and should I aim to use different fund providers (perhaps that aim to achieve the same investment objective). Anyway, I may be being overcautious here or be misunderstanding the level risk but any reassurance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again Andy   18:24  Question 3 Hi Roger and Pete, I'm 32 and I've been listening the podcast for a few years and the advice (particularly about investing) has helped me immensely. I have a question about investment portfolios when moving abroad. I moved away from the UK 2.5 years ago, at which point I stopped investing into Vanguard and moved to Interactive Brokers. I still have a decent amount invested in Vanguard, but I'm not sure whether it makes sense to consolidate everything into one platform or keep it split over two. I don't have any immediate plans to return to the UK, although I imagine I will eventually. Do you think it makes any difference in how the investments are split, or am I worrying about nothing? Thanks for sharing any of your *thoughts* and perhaps clearing this up for me. Keep up the amazing podcast, Michael (originally from Cornwall!)   21:23 Question 4 Hi Pete and Roger I recently discovered your podcast and am working my way though the back catalogue! I am finding it extremely informative and it is helping me demystify a subject I have found confusing for a long time, so thank you. My question is how do I calculate the amount I can contribute annually to my SIPP whilst also contributing to a DB pension and AVCs (£200/month)? My annual gross salary is £25744. I opened the SIPP to give me flexibility to retire earlier than 67 when I intend to access my DB pensions (as well as my current local government DB pension I have a deferred University DB pension from previous employment), ideally between 60-62, and access the SIPP along with my S&S ISA to bridge the gap. Thanks, Melanie   27:28 Question 5 Hello Pete & Roger, I'm a long time listener and as a result in far better financial shape than I was for many years, thank you. In work I am often akin to the Shawshank Redemption character Andy Dufresne as I find myself offering financial or pension scheme advice to colleagues. This advice ends with recommending your good selves and the knowledge repository that is the Meaningful Money archive and books! I am 56 and just over 4 years from my planned early retirement at 61,  when I will have 36 years contributing into a company DB pension. I plan on taking this in a stepped format (with PCLS) to offer a higher initial payment until my state pension starts 6 years later at 67. To maintain basic rate income tax, I am paying my maximum matched pension contributions plus AVC's through salary sacrifice (until 2029) to keep just under the 40% tax limits. My wife will be solely reliant on her (full) State Pension having not contributed to a personal pension, she will receive this when I am 64, meaning our combined funding danger zone will be around 3 years during which we may need funds to top up our income either from the PCLS pot or ISA savings to this final combined total, "our figure". So my question: You repeatedly talk about retiring with options such as having pensions, ISA's and savings etc. but I am concerned my pension and AVC fund will be totally concentrated with little else. After maximising the pension and AVC contributions it looks likely I will not contribute enough to fund a savings pot that could comfortably cover the 3 year danger zone. Will this pension / AVC concentration matter? Should I continue paying the AVC's to avoid higher rate tax on my income and recovering tax rebate into the AVC pot? To me this makes sense, but would funding a savings pot give us flexibility to fund our pension gap somehow that I am missing, and do I need to target an ISA or other savings pot in my remaining working years. This prospect would feel like not living for today, but retirement is in touching distance so might it be worthwhile? Many thanks & best regards, Tim   34:52  Question 6 To the Bruce Springsteen and Little Steven of the financial world! Hi guys my name is Cam, I'd just like to say you guys are absolutely fantastic at what you do, the knowledge you provide is genuinely incredible and immensely helpful. I think I speak for all your listeners when I say without your podcast there would be a lot of people struggling with personal finance! Keep up the good work Pete and Rog! I am 27 years old, 17 months ago I quit my 9-5 and started my own dog walking business, I have since trained to become a dog trainer too. My business has gone from strength to strength and I'm very proud. However the change from going from a wage structure to a varied income per month has been a tough adjustment especially when saving and wanting to invest and so on. I contribute to my pension each month, I pay into a LISA each month (for a first time home) the only thing I don't do is pay into a stocks and shares ISA. Firstly how do I open one? I have listened to your podcast for well over 2 years now and have listened to the majority of the back catalogue, I feel like I know what to do but it's a genuine fear that's stopping me from opening one. I don't know how to explain it - it's almost like my head is telling me 'don't open one you'll mess it up.' Is it literally as simple as sign up to a provider, open an account, add money in each month? I feel stupid saying I'm fearful of opening one but I genuinely am! The last part of my question is simply is there anything else I should be doing that I'm currently not?  Insurance wise I have income protection and the necessary insurances for my business. Thanks once again you absolute legends! Cam Boring Money ISA Comparison: https://www.boringmoney.co.uk/compare/stocks-and-shares-isas/ 

In this episode Dr. Oord engages with the book Second Thoughts About Hell: Understanding What We Believe by Ronald Allen and Robert Cornwall.  In the book Allen and Cornwall guide the reader through the historical interpretation of hell, allowing the reader to decide what view(s) of hell make the most theological and ethical sense to them, while concluding by offering their personal thoughts on hell.  The book includes a study guide making it an excellent small group study resource.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season.

In this programme we report from the show, hearing farmers' views on the Scottish Government's plan for a supermarket price cap on essential food items, speaking to the new Cabinet Secretary for Climate Action and Rural Affairs and hearing about the hardest job on the showground... ice cream tasting!Meanwhile in the south west of England, we hear about an emergency by-law that's been passed in Cornwall, to restrict the number of boats coming in to fish for octopus. The ongoing octopus bloom has been described as a 'gold rush' as huge sums are being made - two weeks ago Brixham fish market experienced a record catch of 103 tonnes, worth £400,000. But the octopus are also causing problems - eating crab and lobster and devastating that industry locally.Presented by Caz Graham Produced by Heather Simons

The early modern period was a rocky time for religion across Europe, fundamental pinnings of everyday life were being questioned and changing, as the reformation shifted authority away from the church. Thoughts on death and the afterlife were turned upside down, and in villages across England, restless spirits were making a comeback. To confront these supernatural intruders, communities turned to their local clergy to carry out the practice of ghost-laying, an exorcism ritual that sought to bind and banish the dead. At least, that's what Victorian authors would have liked to believe. Part religion, part folklore, and part fear, the subject of ghost-laying is fairly well complicated, and defining just how much of it is actually true, even more so. SOURCES Walsh, Brendan C.

In this episode, we sit down with Jeff Finup — the creative force behind Badgerland Legends. A Wisconsin native, author, researcher, speaker, and passionate curator of the Badger State's strange lore, Jeff has built a massive following by sharing daily stories of forgotten history, hauntings, cryptids, and high strangeness.We dive deep into Wisconsin's reputation as a hotspot for high strangeness, exploring why the Badger State seems to attract more than its share of the unexplained. Jeff shares his own incredible personal UFO encounter from 2004, along with his fascinating experiences with synchronicity — those meaningful coincidences that feel too perfectly timed to be random. We discuss what synchronicities might mean, why they occur, and how they often surface during investigations into the unknown.We also cover the legendary Beast of Bray Road (Wisconsin's famous werewolf and dogman sightings), memorable UFO landings and close encounters across the state, and the rich Cornish pasty connection — how 19th-century miners from Cornwall, England, and Wales brought their food traditions, superstitions, and tommyknocker folklore to Wisconsin's lead mining regions.Packed with compelling storytelling, personal experiences, and thoughtful exploration of the unknown, this episode is a must-listen for anyone fascinated by folklore, the paranormal, and the hidden wonders of Wisconsin.

This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Rose of Nevada director Mark Jenkin and actress Mary Woodvine, moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Rose of Nevada opens at Film at Lincoln Center on June 19 with select screenings on 35mm and featuring in-person Q&As opening weekend. View full screening schedule and secure tickets at filmlinc.org/nevada The singular Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin brings his distinctive and bold storytelling approach to his most expansive work yet. Again immersing the viewer in the uncanny environments of the small towns along the coast of Cornwall, Jenkin spins a sci-fi-tinged tale of dislocation and regeneration. In a tiny, sparsely populated fishing village, a boat that had been lost at sea 30 years ago, the Rose of Nevada, suddenly reappears portside, fully intact and without its long-missing crew. Two local neophyte fishermen desperate for work (played by George MacKay and Callum Turner) take jobs on the boat as it sets out for a good-luck return voyage. When they return, all is no longer what it once was. Shot on 16mm, this earthy, psychological portrait of a working-class community's cyclical existence is an atmospheric plunge into the eerie. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

In this episode, we answer a litter's questions who wrote while in "DEEP" labor asking about the lesser-known Pratt brothers and an audio submission from Filer, Idaho about the legend that Joseph of Arimathea brought the teenage Jesus to Cornwall. Gerrit traces the idea to William of Malmesbury's 12th-century history of Glastonbury and its tangle of Arthurian folklore.   We close with part three of our King Follett sermon series, where Gerrit warns against apologists who lean on the Thomas Bullock account's apparent mistranscription to claim Joseph taught God was God from all eternity, arguing that you can't play historian with one discrepant source against five consistent ones, and that watering down what Joseph actually taught to appease traditional Christian critics is selling your birthright for a mess of pottage that won't even fill you up.   If you are interested in joining us in 2027 in Palmyra and Kirtland, August 1st through August 7th, click on the link below and reserve your spot: https://pci.jotform.com/form/261567888174171   Sign up for our free monthly email: ⁠ ⁠⁠https://standardoftruthpodcast.substack.com⁠⁠   If you have any questions or possible topics of discussion for upcoming podcasts, please email us at: ⁠⁠questions@standardoftruthpodcast.com

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by Cornwall's finest and UK film making royalty MARK JENKIN!A total gem of an episode here, whether you are a heavyweight devotee of Mark's film output or if this is the first time you're hearing about him. Mark's got many years in the game, and in an era where almost every single thing feels digital, his approach to film making is almost as aesthetically radical as it comes - using all analogue gear, and a truly unique attitude to post-sync sound too. This chat gets into many eras and processes, including the origins of Bait (2019) which stem back to decades ago, how to tour a film, making films for an audience of self, representing the working class in an honourable way, Cornwall stereotypes, falling in love with the film making process again via Super8 cameras, the music making process and how said sync work happens. Genuine good stuff for the films heads (and, as said, those not familiar - everyone will get something from this). Oh and just TRY not to incorporate the Cornish Affirmative into you daily parlance.

In August 2000, the quiet Cornish village of Carnkie became the scene of one of Britain's most devastating family murder cases. Over the course of just 24 hours, Lee Ford murdered his wife, Lesley, and her four children before attempting to hide what he had done and convince neighbours they had simply disappeared. As the truth slowly emerged, investigators uncovered a story of control, abuse, deception and unimaginable violence.This week on Seeing Red, we examine the lives of the victims, the warning signs that preceded the killings, the investigation that exposed Ford's lies, and the shocking details that would come to light after his arrest. This is the story of the Carnkie Murders — a case that continues to haunt Cornwall more than two decades later.Please be aware that this episode contains discussion of murder, domestic abuse and child victims.http://www.youtube.com/@seeingredtruecrimepodcastwww.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Hosted on Acast.

In the spring of 1976, two young sisters exploring a churchyard in Cornwall claimed they encountered a towering feathered creature with glowing red eyes perched atop an ancient church tower. What followed was a wave of sightings, terrified witnesses, and one of Britain's strangest cryptid legends. Tonight, we journey into the mist-covered woods of Mawnan to investigate the mystery of the Owlman—a creature that has haunted Cornwall for nearly fifty years.
