Send us a textOn this week's episode, we're joined by Julian Chamberlayne, a partner at Stewart's, the UK law firm who last month secured a £4.5m settlement case against Planet X's insurers, after cyclist Dr Daniel Gordon was left paralysed in a crash caused by his gravel bike's carbon fork shearing in two on a grass slope.We discuss what went wrong to lead to such a horrendous crash, the case itself, and its potential implications for the cycling industry, where gravel bikes are frequently marketed as ‘go anywhere' machines, when the reality can often be very different. And in part one, Ryan and Dan chat about THAT staggering ending to the Giro d'Italia, the tactical drama that unfolded on the Colle delle Finestre, and whether Simon Yates' pink jersey triumph places him firmly in the upper echelon of British cycling greats.
Nigel has lived with paranoid schizophrenia for decades, navigating "tormenting voices" and spending time in secure units and prison. He talks to Emma Tracey about his life, managing the condition and the importance of his friendship with Andy, who we also meet. Lucy Schonegevel from Rethink Mental Health reflects on Nigel's story and brings us up to date on reforms to the Mental Health Act, expected later this year, which might improve the experiences of people with schizophrenia. Last week, government changes to disability benefits grabbed the headlines. One grant scheme that didn't get the limelight was Access To Work. Angela Mathews from the Business Disability Forum gives us the lowdown on what's happening with that while BBC Transport Correspondent, Sean Dilley, pops in to talk about a select committee report which described the experience of many disabled people on public transport as a "national embarrassment". Emma also gets out and about on the London Underground to find out how a new Chatty Cabin scheme is helping commuters with their mental health.

Owen Tooth is the first wheelchair user to direct EastEnders — he's already handled his first "duff duff" moment and is due on set for a string of episodes in early 2025. But he says he moved into TV after his film career collapsed when he became a wheelchair user and people acted as if he was “invisible”. Also on the programme, millions of people rent properties and yet nearly half of private landlords in England say they would be “unwilling” to rent to tenants who require adaptations to be made to the property.More than 9,000 people answered the English Private Landlords Survey - with 47% saying they would be reluctant to provide adaptations. Sam Lewis, who lives in privately rented accommodation in London and has Crohn's Disease and rheumatoid arthritis, shares her experience of asking numerous landlords to make their properties more accessible for her. We also hear from Paul Smith, Director of Foundations, the public body advising prospective tenants who require adaptations and the agencies who provide them.

Pop Idol star Gareth Gates and former Labour politician-turned-TV star, Ed Balls drop by the Access All studio to chat to Emma Tracey about living with a stammer. More than 20 years after he shot to fame on Pop Idol in 2002 Gareth talks about the new musical he is penning which is all about stammering. He has an overt or exteriorised stammer which causes him to get stuck at the start of a word and repeat the initial letter. Former politician, Ed, didn't realise he had a stammer until he was already serving in Gordon Brown's government. He has a covert stammer and describes it as a “block” which means the right words don't always come. He reveals the impact it had on political life when his rivals used it to rock the public's confidence in him and the moment he knew he had to go public.

As the 17th summer Paralympic Games start in Paris, some of Great Britain's athletes have been going the extra mile when it comes to training by working out in a heat chamber set to 40C. But it's about more than just heat. Athletes with spinal cord injuries or limb differences don't have the same surface area through which to sweat, so the chamber is also about seeing how their bodies adapt and recover. After every session, the sweat hoover is brought out… Plus, Canadian filmmaker and activist, Kyla Harris, discusses her new BBC comedy, We Might Regret This. It follows Freya (played by Kyla) as she attempts to navigate moving to London and a romance with a silver fox lawyer. What could possibly go wrong…?

"I am influenced by many things—1980's guitars, VHS tapes, World War I battleships, sunrise/sunset gradients, moiré patterns, and more. Over the past 3 years, ‘notions of cycle' have played an increased role in the development of my paintings; and I'm curious how the avant-garde succeeds and fails within popular culture. Currently, I'm interested in how the landscape has been depicted throughout American culture. Whether it's Thomas Cole and Albert Bierstadt of the Hudson River School, Georgia O'Keeffe's monumental work at the Art Institute of Chicago, or an Instagram post of a sunset—each conveys a romanticized view of our world. The most recent paintings are an amalgamation of experiences that I've had within the American landscape; with each painting flowing freely between representation and abstraction."

This week on Scene Stealers we are talking about our first heist documentary and it is a big one with Daniel Gordon's Billion Dollar Heist. For The Vault we are paying our respects to the late great Carl Weathers. Charles is talking about 1996s Happy Gilmore and Leo is going deeper into the vault for 1988s Action Jackson. The main take is our first documentary feature, Billion Dollar Heist, which covers the 2016 cyber theft of the Bangladeshi Central Bank. There are a lot of moving parts but Leo and Charles cover a lot of ground, both on how the money was stolen and how it connected to past cyber-attacks. Listen right now:
In 1983, the disappearance of a teenage girl who was a citizen of Vatican City led to a scandal.When Pope John Paul II made a public appeal to the people holding Emanuela Orlandi captive, the world took notice and her case was treated as a suspected kidnapping.Forty years on, the reason she vanished is still unclear.Emanuela's brother, Pietro Orlandi, speaks to Daniel Gordon about his life-long mission to find out what really happened to his sister.(Photo: A protester holds a photo of Emanuela.

This is one of those stories that they've told us....and I'm still not sure if I believe it...On this episode we dive head first into the incredible world of cybercrime with a brand new documentary that shows how terrifying, insane and to be honest, ridiculous it can all get. It's time for 'Billion Dollar Heist'.Global, dynamic, and eye-opening, 'Billion Dollar Heist' tells the story of the most daring cyber heist of all time, the Bangladeshi Central Bank theft. This feature documentary traces the origins of cyber-crime from basic credit card fraud to the wildly complex criminal organizations in existence today. A tale of epic proportions, Billion Dollar Heist shows how the key players on both sides of the law are embroiled in a global game of cat-and-mouse – with our money and security on the line.This might be the first film that really clearly lays out many of the realities of cyber crime and why we need to be aware of them, it's truly a thrilling watch.We had the unique pleasure of sitting down with one of the subjects of the film, journalist and noted cybersecurity expert Misha Glenny as we talked about his involvement in the project, the craziness of it all, how it all works and how an unsung 80's classic got it all right before we even knew what Cyberspace was.

Wagner's leader, Yevgheny Prigozhin, was once known as Vladimir Putin's 'chef'. Soldiers fighting for him won the battle for Soledar - one of few military successes for Russia in Ukraine in recent months. Has his prowess on the battlefield re-invigorated Russia's army - or turned Prigozhin into a potential rival to Putin?Joining David Aaronovitch in The Briefing Room are: Samantha De Bendern, Associate Fellow at the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Chatham House Joana De Deus Pereira,Senior Research Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute Europe Marina Miron, Post-doctoral researcher at the Department of War Studies at King's College London Andras Racz, Senior Research Fellow of the German Council on Foreign Relations in BerlinProduced by: Daniel Gordon, Ben Carter, Kirsteen Knight Edited by: Richard Vadon Sound engineer: James BeardPHOTO: Graffiti praising soldiers from the Wagner Group (Getty)
Kate Adie presents stories from Turkey, the USA, Myanmar, Italy and Ukraine. Anna Foster has been in Kahramanmaras, the epicentre of the recent earthquake, where diggers work to remove the debris, revealing small personal items that tell of so many lives lost. Even after the rescue teams have left for the day, relatives continue the search for loved ones through the night. President Joe Biden has switched to campaign mode in both his State of the Union speech to Congress and on his recent visit to Florida - celebrating the achievements of his presidency. But a fight looms with Republicans who now control the House, and there are potential trip wires on the road ahead, says Anthony Zurcher. A journalist from Myanmar shares his story of how hope turned to despair when the military seized power in a coup in 2021 - and how he was forced to flee with his family. The regime has used intimidation and harassment to shut down the media, says Rebecca Henschke. In Italy, Daniel Gordon tells the story of a man who managed to escape the clutches of the mafia. Having grown up in a crime family, the man reveals the challenges of leaving 'the family' when he was still a young man, before starting a new life in the north of Italy. And Nick Redmayne takes the ever-punctual Ukrainian Railways overnight sleeper from Poland's far east to Kyiv. As the train departs, following a timetable undeterred by war, Nick chats to his travel companions over cups of hot tea served to passengers in elegant glasses.

Southern Italy is home to some of Europe's most powerful criminal organisations; the Sicilian Mafia, the Camorra in Naples and the Ndrangheta based in Calabria. For many, crime is a family business. So a judge in Sicily has come up with a radical plan to prevent young people becoming the next generation of mobsters. He's been taking children away from Mafia families. This controversial policy is now being considered by other countries around the world. Daniel Gordon travels to Sicily to meet those involved in the programme and find out whether it actually works.

Southern Italy is home to some of Europe's most powerful criminal organisations; the Sicilian Mafia, the Camorra in Naples and the Ndrangheta based in Calabria. For many, crime is a family business. So a judge in Sicily has come up with a radical plan to prevent young people becoming the next generation of mobsters. He's been taking children away from Mafia families. This controversial policy is now being considered by other countries around the world. Daniel Gordon travels to Sicily to meet those involved in the programme and find out whether it actually works.

This podcast is for anyone who thinks that my opinions are slanted and that I am nothing more than a mouthpiece for the left leaning. Oh my god I wish that were true. I may have more followers and listeners to my podcast. But I am not, but what I am is one for the culture and for the Citizens of the United States of America, regardless of race, gender or gender designation, creed or color. If you know me, you know I will come back and Challenge the black community. And this my friends are one of those occasions you have to ask yourself why or how could something like this have happen. DEKALB COUNTY, Decatur Georgia, Daniel Gordon, 24, a black man was shot and killed on the job at Tires Plus Saturday afternoon after police say a customer mistook him for someone who was trying to steal his car. Now like most people, ok wait, let me start over, hearing that a black man getting killed in Georgia, in my mind I was waiting for the picture of some stereo typical Racist White guy to pop up. Now slow down Gabrony. Trust me I am going to touch on this so those who already have the lemon booty and are trying to jump up, talking about uu uu uu mr Carter. Slow your roll and just wait. This is all to familiar, back in October 2002, I drew the same conclusion of the DC sniper. Because in the manner the killings were taking place it couldn't be a black guy. We just don't kill indiscriminately, that doesn't fit our M.O. Yet here I am 20 year later, having the same thoughts and guess what people, the accused is black guy. Now I can spin this so many different ways but once again I am about getting out a perspective rather than a conclusion. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/according-2-b-matthews/support
