In our previous episode, we went deep into the history of Cabaret Voltaire and their importance to UK industrial and, latterly, dance music. Now, we follow the trail we laid therein by taking a journey through the band's extensive discography, really fleshing out how they went from a Sheffield attic in 1973 to a Patagonian field site recording lizards for David Attenborough. Along the way, we take in televangelists, voodoo, Charles Manson samples, Velvet Underground covers, a near-miss with Todd Terry, and a Taylor Swift pressing-plant mix-up that turned a forgotten ambient track into a viral curiosity decades later.Phil Eaglesham (aka P6 - ex-Stretchheads and De Salvo, current OMO frontman) returns to bestow upon us his encyclopaedic knowledge of the band and British industrial music. We start in 1974 with the lo-fi bedroom experiments of Cabaret Voltaire 1974–76, work through the rough-edged early Rough Trade EPs, the spring-reverb wilderness of Three Mantras and Voice of America, the cult monument that is Red Mecca, and the band's stylistic pivots through Hai!, 2x45, The Crackdown, Micro-Phonies, The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord, Code, and beyond. We also pick at the more controversial late chapters, including the major-label years, the slightly-too-late acid house pivot, and Richard H. Kirk's solo reactivation of the name.Along the way, we explore the band as a video production company that happened to make music; their roles as curators and tastemakers via Double Vision; the Burroughs-and-televangelism worldview that made them frighteningly prescient about Reagan-era Christian nationalism; and their unsung debt to Black American music and dub. Chris also offers a wider reflection on what it means to lose the egoless purity of your earliest creative work as ambition and industry pressures take hold.We get deep in the weeds talking about the producers they worked with (Flood, Adrian Sherwood, John Robie, Marshall Jefferson); the labels (Rough Trade, Some Bizzare, Virgin, EMI, Mute); their collaborators and contemporaries (DAF, Wire, Throbbing Gristle, Clock DVA, Soft Cell, New Order, The Shamen); and the bands that lifted from them wholesale (Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, The Rapture, White Zombie, and a generation of Glasgow acts you've heard but can't quite place).It all culminates in us taking a closer look at Eight Crepuscule Tracks, a record that Phil thinks is their best and a very pure statement of what the band can and did achieve. We also settle upon what is perhaps the most important lesson to be gleaned from the Cabs' music: the importance of never compromising on your vision. By entering the belly of the beast and somehow remaining intact, they became one of the rare bands in this corner of music history whom nobody has a bad word for.Highlights00:00 Intro01:18 Welcome Back, Phil02:46 1974–76: Egoless Experimentation04:51 Bedroom Records06:30 Extended Play and DAF07:37 The Velvet Underground Cover08:26 Nag Nag Nag10:20 Van With a PA11:38 Three Mantras12:24 Mix-Up14:50 William Burroughs16:48 Voice of America19:35 Peter Care and Double Vision21:41 Red Mecca24:25 Encyclopaedia Bands27:36 Hai!29:36 2x45 in New York32:07 Sheffield's Family Tree32:55 Chris Watson Leaves36:16 The Crackdown42:23 Micro-Phonies46:38 Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord49:48 Drinking Gasoline51:45 Code54:58 Listen Up and Reissues57:12 Groovy, Laidback and Nasty1:00:15 Body and Soul1:03:56 Shadow of Fear1:04:51 The Taylor Swift Accident1:08:27 Richard Kirk's Death1:14:50 Bus Shelter Bashes1:19:58 Sincerity vs Seriousness1:25:00 Debt to Black Music1:29:00 Eight Crepuscule Tracks1:51:00 Why Everyone Loves Cab Vol1:58:36 Coming Soon: Coil?!
Living Better for Longer: Blue Zones, Longevity and the Places We Create Guest: Marcus Pearce What do a small Greek island, a mountain village in Sardinia, and a Californian faith-based community have in common? They are among the world's famous Blue Zones - places where people routinely live into their nineties and hundreds, not because of miracle diets or expensive health interventions, but because of the way their communities are structured and how people live their everyday lives. In this episode, Peter Jewell and Jess Noonan speak with Marcus Pearce, longevity educator, host of the 100 Not Outpodcast, and founder of wellbeing experiences to Blue Zone communities. Marcus shares his personal journey from sports journalist to one of Australia's leading voices on healthy ageing and wellbeing. The conversation explores what planners, designers and policymakers can learn from places where longevity is not the exception but the norm. In this episode we discuss: * What Blue Zones are and how they were identified * The six recognised Blue Zones, including the recent addition of Singapore * Marcus's personal transformation from sports media to longevity advocacy * Why attitudes towards ageing can significantly influence lifespan * The role of social connection, purpose and community in healthy ageing * What makes places such as Ikaria (Greece) and Sardinia (Italy) unique * The importance of walkability and natural movement in daily life * Why loneliness may be one of the greatest public health challenges of our time * The relationship between urban design, wellbeing and longevity * How modern technology and changing work patterns may be weakening social connections * Lessons planners can draw from village-scale living and human-centred environments * Whether Blue Zone principles can be applied in contemporary cities Marcus also reflects on the concept of an "ageing mentor" - someone whose approach to life and ageing inspires us to think differently about our own future. Key Takeaway The most powerful lesson from the Blue Zones may be that healthy ageing is less about individual optimisation and more about creating places where connection, movement, purpose and belonging occur naturally. In other words, the environment often shapes healthier behaviours without people consciously trying to pursue them. Guest Marcus Pearce Host of the 100 Not Out podcast and founder of Blue Zone-inspired wellbeing experiences. Marcus has spent more than a decade interviewing centenarians, longevity experts and wellbeing leaders, helping people rethink what it means to live a long and meaningful life. Podcast Extra In Culture Corner: * Marcus reflects on David Attenborough's remarkable longevity and asks: Who is your ageing mentor? * Jess discusses The Mushroom Tapes by Helen Garner, Sarah Krasnostein and Claire Hooper. * Peter talks about rediscovering fountain pens following a recent trip to Japan.

On this week's Bandwagon Nerds, we take a look at an interesting mix of trailers, including fresh looks at 72 Hours, Hawk, & Wildwood. We also offer our thoughts on the Marvel Special, Punisher: One Last Kill. There was a lot to like about this one, but it was far from perfect, and one scene, in particular, nearly caused Dave & PC Tunney to walk away from the show a mere 5 minutes in. The Boys' final season aired its next-to-last episode. It was an episode that seemed to set the stage for the climactic series finale next week, and it drew a mixed response from the guys. We also talk about the resurgence of Matthew Lillard in comics-based properties, and we pay our respects to David Attenborough, who turned 100 recently.

Boots Riley talks about his new film, ‘I Love Boosters.' It stars Keke Palmer as the leader of a crew of women shoplifters who steal from luxury stores and sell the goods cheap to people who can't afford retail. Riley says he thinks of his work labor organizing, filmmaking and writing hip-hop music as the same project. Also, we'll hear from actor Will Sharpe. He starred in season two of ‘The White Lotus,' Lena Dunham's series ‘Too Much,' and the movie ‘A Real Pain.' Now he plays Mozart in a new adaptation of ‘Amadeus.'

In today's episode, i chat about David Attenborough who just turned 100. The whole world stopped to celebrate, butterflies released, concerts held, documentaries premiered. But beneath the celebration is a harder truth: the man who spent a century showing us the beauty of the natural world has also watched most of it diminish. In this episode we sit with that. We talk about what the planet looked like when he was born in 1926, what's been lost, and why Palestine, one of the great ancient ecosystems on earth, is a window into something deeper. This is about land, belonging, and what happens when the sacred is treated as disposable. With peace and love always, Amber xoxo
Overalt på planeten Jorden kender man hans stemme, man kender hans begejstring og man kender hans ekstraordinære kærlighed til naturen. Det er ofte at pynte sig med lånte fjer, når man kalder et menneske for en institution, men ikke når det gælder Sir David Attenborough. I sidste uge fyldte han 100 år, og i størstedelen af sin levetid har han fortalt os om vores fælles klode og de dyr, der bebor den. Men hvorfor er det, at vi alle sammen lytter, når David Attenborough taler? Hvad var det, han fik kritik for ikke at bruge sin stemme til? Og hvad er egentlig hans yndlingsdyr? Det spørger vi Politikens videnskabsredaktør Lasse Foghsgaard om i dag.

Good morning.Ocean transport has rarely left our news headlines over these last few weeks. The ongoing efforts of the USA and Iran to block or open up the Strait of Hormuz now being joined by the plight of passengers on a virus struck cruise ship, finally docked in Tenerife.It's tempting then, to think of the world's oceans primarily as means of transporting travellers and goods. Yet, as ocean naturalists, from Rachel Carson to David Attenborough, have repeatedly reminded us, the seas are home to a vast array of amazing species. The wonders of our oceans are however, now at significant risk from two direct consequences of human activity, climate change and pollution. Indeed, it's widely argued by scientists that, for the seas to recover, a minimum of 30% of the world's oceans will need to be protected by 2030.The challenge, as so often with regard to environmental damage, is our human reluctance to take short term sacrifices for longer term gain. Or else we so frame the actions required by way of sacrifice that they fall disproportionately on the poorest among our communities and nations. It is here that two core aspects of my own faith come together.First, as Psalm 95 in the Hebrew Scriptures asserts, “The sea is his, and he made it”. That tells me, our human accountability to God extends to our treatment of the oceans just as much as it does the dry land.Second, those of us with greater wealth or assets are expected to shoulder the heavier burden. As Jesus says in Luke 12: 48, “From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded.”Governments have a vital part to play. The High Seas Treaty, which came into force earlier this year, and the UK Parliament has now legislated to ratify, affords opportunity for safeguarding large swathes of the oceans. The Sargasso Sea, surrounding the Island of Bermuda, and home to a rich and diverse range of species, is a prime candidate for environmental protection measures that avoid destroying the livelihoods of local fishing communitiesI'm grateful too for the work of campaigning organisations, such as Greenpeace, whose ship Witness, I was privileged to visit, with other parliamentarians, recently. Along with sister vessels, it monitors biodiversity and plastic pollution in sensitive areas, exposing behaviours that jeopardise the seas and challenging us all to do better. Together, treaties and campaigners offer me hope that we can yet treasure the world's oceans for their true value, a value far far beyond their immediate usefulness as means to transport the world's supplies of oil. But, as Jesus stated so bluntly, our own individual practices matter too.

President Trump says a short truce between Russia and Ukraine was agreed at his request. They've also each pledged to release 1,000 prisoners-of-war. The deal coincides with Russia's commemorations marking the defeat of Nazi Germany in the Second World War. A big parade in Moscow's Red Square has been scaled back, with no tanks or missiles. Also: Britain's prime minister, Keir Starmer, is facing renewed pressure after his governing Labour Party was battered in English local elections and suffered a historic defeat in Wales; the Trump administration has released a first batch of previously secret files documenting reported sightings of unidentified flying objects - or UFOs; thousands take part in the Palestine marathon three years after it was put on hold due to the Gaza war; and a royal message for the naturalist David Attenborough on his 100th birthday.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

Good morning. After another tense night watching football in the pub, my friend reminded me of how different the experience is to when we were younger. How do you mean I asked. Well, we don't reek of smoke, he said. And I remembered what it used to be like. How after going to a gig, or a bar, everyone stank of someone else's smoke afterwards. And now we never do.It was twenty years ago this year that the Health Act passed, banning smoking in enclosed spaces… and today we take it for granted.Last month, almost under the radar, another law passed so that anyone born since January 2009 will never legally be able to buy tobacco products. Smoking will become rarer and rarer…but so gradually that we won't realise.We don't notice change as it's happening, it's absorbed into the new normal.If the morning news is immediate and dramatic, history is often incremental and invisible. It happens on the quiet.Until you stop to notice that it's hiding in plain sight. Or you measure it against a greater span than a news cycle. A life span, for example, a centurion like David Attenborough.Penicillin, discovered when Attenborough was two, has a reasonable claim to being the best invention since sliced bread… except that sliced bread was also invented in 1928.My uncle Dave, who died the other day, was the last of my mothers eleven siblings. One didn't survive into adulthood due to polio, a disease almost eradicated today. People no longer have 12 children like my grandparents, - the NHS, born when Attenborough was 22, introduced the contraceptive pill and family sizes fell.Then there's electrification or the mobile phone - when Attenborough was 50 … as well as, on the down side, the atom bomb and global warming.Just as we might wonder how our ancestors tolerated slavery or hanging maybe our descendants will wonder how we tolerated the industrial production of animals for food or tearing down rainforests. The American essayist Rebecca Solnit, who calls herself, in a winning phrase, an ‘ambient Buddhist,' says that it's not heroic leaders who change history but the seeds planted quietly by communities acting together… who may not live to see those seeds flower. Seeds of equality or justice or peace which, once planted, may seem to disappear. In her new book, The Beginning Comes After The End, Solnit calls these seeds ‘imaginal cells' which hold ‘the instructions for transformation'. Or as Jesus of Nazareth told his friends, ‘unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.'
The Matts answer listeners' questions, including the optimal timetable for a Starmer handover; whether Andy Burnham is trustworthy enough to be PM; if Banksy modelled his statue on Nigel Farage; how you can criticise Israel and avoid accusations of anti-semitism and why the Telegraph is smearing the chair of the Southbank Centre; whether we should be terrified of hantavirus; and, apart from revolutionising telly, introducing billions of us to the natural world and raising awareness of the climate crisis, what David Attenborough has ever done for us.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an naoú lá de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Niall Ó Siadhail.Tá triúr marbh agus roinnt eile an-tinn i ndiaidh ráig den hantaivíreas ar long Ísiltíreach san Aigéan Atlantach. D'imigh an long ó dheisceart na hAirgintíne ar an chéad lá de mhí Aibreáin agus beagnach céad go leith duine ar bord, and d'fhág bean amháin in éineacht le corp a fir chéile an long i San Héilin. Fuair sí féin bás fosta. Fuair paisinéir eile bás seachtain ó shin, agus bhí amhras ann an mbeadh cead ag an long teacht isteach sna hOileáin Chanáracha, mar gheall ar an víreas. De ghnáth, baineann an hantaivíreas le creimirí amhail luchóga agus francaigh, ach tagann sé ar dhaoine ó am go ham. Dúirt an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Sláinte Déardaoin nach bhfuil siad ag súil le heipidéim mar gheall ar an ráig.Tá maoiniú do Thionscadal Logainmneacha Thuaisceart Éireann sábháilte i ndiaidh fógra an tseachtain seo go mbeadh deireadh ag teacht le tacaíocht an rialtais don tionscadal, atá ar an fhód le beagnach daichead bliain. Bunaíodh é in Ollscoil na Banríona, Béal Feirste, in 1987, le taighde a dhéanamh ar bhunús agus brí logainmneacha ar fud na Sé Chontae, ach d'fhógair an tAire Pobal Gordon Lyons, atá ina bhall den Pháirtí Daonlathach Aontachtach, nach mbeadh an maoiniú ar fáil a thuilleadh. Meastar gur £90,000 sa bhliain atá i gceist. Tháinig cor eile sa scéal, áfach, nuair a d'fhógair an tAire Geilleagair Caoimhe Archibald go gcuirfeadh a Roinn féin an maoiniú ar fáil. Shéan an tAire Lyons go raibh dearcadh frith-Éireannach aige.Bhain an craoltóir cáiliúil David Attenborough céad bliain amach inné. Rugadh é sa bhliain 1926 agus bhí suim aige sa dúlra ó bhí sé ina bhuachaill óg. Thosaigh sé ag obair leis an BBC ag tús na gcaogaidí agus bhí sé ina rialtóir ar an chainéal nua BBC2 sna seascaidí. Chruthaigh sé an clár faisnéise Life on Earth in 1979, agus ba sa tsraith seo go raibh cruinniú cáiliúil aige le grúpa goraillí i Ruanda. Chuaigh sé i bhfeidhm go mór ar an lucht féachana nuair a labhair sé leis an cheamara faoi éirim agus tuiscint na ngoraillí, agus ón am sin, bhí na milliún daoine timpeall an domhain tógtha lena chuid clár faisnéise agus go háirithe lena ghuth séimh. Tá go leor de na cláir sin le feiceáil ar shuíomh an BBC faoi láthair, agus tá neart imeachtaí eile ar siúl lena bhreithlá a cheiliúradh.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Neoborn Caveman brings his unmistakable marble-mouthed pro-humanity style to a wide-ranging live episode that moves from the absurdity of current politics and culture to real human connection, lawfare as weaponized justice, the protection of children, and the quiet erosion of everyday freedoms. NC skewers AOC's claim that you cannot legitimately earn a billion dollars, contrasts “earn” versus “make” money as a window into American spirit and personal resilience, calls out the bait-and-switch feel in UK politics and declining free speech even on supposed open platforms, celebrates real conversation and voice messages over digital noise, shares the heartwarming Lego response to David Attenborough turning 100, defines lawfare and its spread from international targets to individuals, condemns child sex trafficking in Portland and the demand that sustains it, highlights the EU's plan to brand criticism of mass migration as structural racism, and ends with encouragement to stay present, positive, and connected while sharing green tea and a good burp to annoy the globalists.Music guests: Broken Colours, Big Bus Dream, Big Sexy, Van HechterKey TakeawaysPersonal resilience and the American tradition of “making” money matter more than narratives that frame success as abuse.Real human connection through voice and in-person conversation beats digital noise for mental and social health.Age is no barrier to play, creativity or continued contribution when institutions choose to adapt.Lawfare turns legal systems from tools of justice into weapons of predetermined outcomes.Protecting children from trafficking requires confronting both traffickers and the demand that fuels the market.Labeling criticism of policy as racism is a tactic to shut down legitimate public concern.Fatherlessness and family court outcomes remain pressing unaddressed crises.Freedom of speech is under pressure even in places marketed as free.Staying present, positive and connected to real people strengthens both individuals and communities.Simple daily rituals and small joys help maintain humanity amid manufactured doom.Sound Bites“we are manifesting, not just envisioning, but manifesting Dr. Doom”“you don't earn money in America. You make money in America”“Talk to each other. Don't talk at each other”“There is no age limit for those who never stop playing”“lawfare is the use of the law as a weapon”“when you go to a prostitute, you don't have eyes”“the EU is to declare criticism of illegal mass migration… Racism!”“your life matters more.

Vater der Naturdokus: Zum 100. Geburtstag von David Attenborough (geb. am 8.5.1926) blickt das Zeitzeichen auf ein Jahrhundert Staunen und Mahnen im Zeichen der Natur. Von Anne Preger.
durée : 00:05:11 - La Revue de presse internationale - par : Catherine Duthu - Au Portugal, 24 policiers au total sont désormais visés par une enquête pour "torture aggravée, viol, abus de pouvoir et violence aggravée". Le Britannique David Attenborough, dont les documentaires sur la nature pour la BBC ont captivé des centaines millions de personnes, fête ses 100 ans.
CELOU EPIZODU NAJDETE NA HEROHERO.CO/STUDION Britský přírodovědec a dokumentarista David Attenborough slaví 100 let. „Na jeho životě vidíme, jak se měnil svět – jak ubývaly korály, jak klesá biodiverzita… a mluví o tom s charismatem, které odkapává z televize,“ říká ve Studiu N vědecký novinář a moderátor České televize Daniel Stach. Jeho magnetizující styl vyprávění si uvědomil u jednoho starého videa. „Je to strašně starý šestiminutový záznam, kde stojí mladý Attenborough shrbený v černém obleku a bílé košili, má ruce křížem, vypráví a porušuje u toho drtivou většinu všech televizních pravidel. A já jsem po šesti minutách zjistil, že jsem se poprvé nadechl,“ říká Stach. Jeho hlas označuje za strhující, naplňující a věrohodný. Attenborough podle něj lidskému pokolení připomíná, že je pouhou součástí přírody. „Říká nám, že jsme na ní závislí a že nejsme nic víc. Víme od něj, že žijeme ve světě, který výrazně ovlivňujeme, ale že ho také dokážeme zachraňovat. Dokážeme mu pomáhat, ale musíme chtít,“ shrnuje jeho zásadní myšlenky. Ve Studiu N se moderátor vědeckých pořadů vyjadřuje také k aktuálním hrozbám. „Nikdy v historii nebylo tak snadné a tak levné lhát tolika lidem. A bude to ve velmi blízké budoucnosti ještě jednodušší a cílenější,“ upozorňuje. „Umělá inteligence naučí umělou inteligenci, jak zacílit lež konkrétně na vás. Obávám se, že ztratíme sdílenou realitu a tím se rozpadne společnost. Co bude pravda pro jednoho, nebude pravda pro druhého. Každý bude mít svět vytvořený přímo pro něj, který se nebude protínat se světem těch dalších,“ popisuje Stach. Tento vývoj podle něj může vést k občanským válkám a rozložení společnosti, která se přestane starat o slabší. „Z toho mám obrovskou obavu,“ přiznává. V rozhovoru se dotýká také aktuálního politického tlaku na veřejnoprávní média. „Já doufám, že máme generálního ředitele, který sice nevystupuje silně navenek, ale dokáže dobře vyjednávat v zákulisí,“ říká o vedení České televize. „Doufám, že to Hynek Chudárek dokáže vyjednat tak, aby ČT mohla zůstat nezávislá a byla tam co největší bariéra mezi novináři a politiky. Navenek ale nevidím silná vyjádření, silné výstupy ani bouchání do stolu. Neříkám tím, že nedokáže dostát výsledku, ale zaměstnanci se ozvali hlasitěji než generální ředitel,“ tvrdí. V jaké situaci by opustil Kavčí hory? Co říká na konec Václava Moravce? Proč při každé návštěvě hotelu hledá evakuační cestu? Připadá si při rozhovorech s nobelisty hloupý? Co probíhalo před rozhovorem s dalajlamou? A co je to televizní pravidlo hospody? Podívejte se na celý rozhovor na herohero.co/studion
El padre (severo) y el hijo (díscolo) hicieron un trato: si estudias puedes apuntarte, por fin, a clases de pintura. No sospechaban todavía ninguno de los dos que la medicina y el arte iban a quedar, desde entonces, íntimamente ligados en sus vidas, y sobre todo que iban a inspirar los descubrimientos mundialmente revolucionarios del padre de la neurociencia, Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Abundamos en la historia del científico aragonés y de su relación decisiva con el dibujo o la fotografía a partir del documental 'Ramón y Cajal: Dibujos en la retina', que han visto Carlos Alsina, Rubén Amón, Rosa Belmonte, Guillermo Altares y Sergio del Molino. Además, celebramos el Premio Princesa de Asturias 2026 de Comunicación y Humanidades para el famoso Estudio Ghibli del japonés Hayao Miyazaki y felicitamos, en su 100º cumpleaños, al naturalista británico David Attenborough. Y recomendamos la película en cartelera 'La isla de Amrum' y la versión de la ópera 'Salomé' en cartel, actualmente, en el Teatro de Les Arts de Valencia.
Más de uno dedica una edición muy especial de la sección del gastrónomo a celebrar el centenario de David Attenborough, el legendario naturalista y divulgador británico que revolucionó los documentales de naturaleza en la BBC. Carlos Alsina repasa la trayectoria del comunicador, desde sus inicios en televisión en los años cincuenta hasta sus últimos trabajos, estrenados hace apenas unos meses, y recuerda algunas de sus intervenciones más icónicas, como aquella ocasión en la que narró una canción de Adele como si fuera un documental sobre fauna salvaje. Entre homenajes, curiosidades sobre su longevidad y su alimentación, el programa también da espacio al humor con una "nota de reclamaciones" para oyentes indignados con la manera de hacer Robin Food y una recopilación de algunas de las hojas de reclamaciones más surrealistas presentadas en bares y restaurantes.

Monarch butterflies crossing a continent. Peregrine falcons above Manhattan. A giant lemur most of the world had never heard of, until one man pointed a camera at it. For seventy years, Sir David Attenborough has been asking us to look - really look - at the world we share with three and a half billion years' worth of other life. This week, Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac, and Paul Dickinson mark the 100th birthday of the world's longest-serving television presenter. To celebrate, they're reaching into the archives to share the very first episode of the podcast - a conversation recorded in person with their friend Sir David himself, at the Attenborough Centre in Cambridge in 2019.They also take stock of seven years of Outrage + Optimism, and on a world that's changed since that first episode dropped. What's moved faster than anyone expected, what's gone sideways, and what still keeps us at night?Then Sir David. On why young people's outrage is entirely justified. On what the natural world actually needs from us. On the rare moments in history when nations chose agreement over conflict. And on why understanding might be the thing that saves us.Learn More:
To celebrate Sir David Attenborough's centenary, Madeleine Finlay catches up with natural history writer Patrick Barkham, who has met the celebrated presenter. They explore how the natural world has changed in the century that Attenborough has been on Earth, and how his programming has reflected his growing commitment to highlighting the devastating impacts of the climate crisis on nature and biodiversity.

A BBC News investigation exposes an unregulated, booming industry of so-called baby sleep influencers or "sleep consultants". Some people who become sleep consultants have relevant medical licenses, but others hold no qualifications and are pushing dangerous practices to desperate mothers, which doctors say risk causing harm. Those women now feel “traumatised” by the advice they've been given from "consultants" like these, and “guilty” for putting their babies through procedures they did not need, after paying high fees for the advice. Senior BBC reporter Divya Talwar and Olivia Hinge, NHS midwife and lactation nurse, join Nuala McGovern.On 18 June 2023,19 year-old Suleman Dawood died alongside his father, Shahzada, and three other men in the Titan submersible as it attempted to dive to the Titanic. They were 500 metres above the wreck when the submersible imploded. It was a horrifying tragedy that made headlines around the world. Christine Dawood has now written a book, Ninety-Six Hours and joins us to talk about what happened during the 4-day search for the lost sub. It's Sir David Attenborough's 100th birthday on Friday 8 May, and the BBC has launched a week-long celebration of his work and legacy... so we wanted to take this moment to shine a spotlight on women working in this industry. Sophie Darlington was one of the first female wildlife cinematographers and her work has earned her a BAFTA and an Emmy. She joins Nuala. KOGG is an experimental electronic duo created by Selena Kay and Cerys Hogg. Both formally trained - Selena has her roots in classical contemporary composition and Cerys in jazz improvisation and art. They combine their skills in composition and improvisation, create new instruments and have developed their own distinctive sound world, from recorded sources. KOGG discuss their sound, their debut album Mechanista and receiving a Women Make Music Grant.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey
