Podcast appearances and mentions of David Whitehouse

In 1977, astronomer Jerry Ehman detected a narrowband radio signal, far stronger than any that have been recorded before or since, using Ohio State University's Big Ear telescope as it was pointing in the direction of the Saggitarius constellation. Listener to the show, Donald, wants to know if any consensus has been reached as to the origin of the signal, which James Tytko sought to find out with the help of former BBC science editor, David Whitehouse.

On Energy Voice Out Loud this week, news editor Erikka Askeland and reporter Mathew Perry take in the OEUK Conference: Powering Our Energy Future. Hosted in Aberdeen, the conference had had some strong views to deliver. Erikka discusses some of the warnings issued by the likes of BP vice president for the North Sea Doris Reiter and OEUK boss, David Whitehouse, who talked about the effects of government policy. But was Energy Minister Michael Shanks listening? Mat tells all. There was also some good news to tell involving Cerulean Winds' INTOG offshore wind projects Aspen, Beech and Cedar, plus some of the latest green investments by the likes of Port of Aberdeen and Net Zero Technology Centre. Then we hear from some of the people were speaking at and attending the event, including Jenny Stanning, external relations director from the organiser, Offshore Energies UK; Myrtle Dawes, CEO of the Net Zero Technology Centre; Neil Rowantree, vice president of energy at Blend; and last but not least Marcus Paige, business development manager at Kellas Midstream.

This week: Keir Starmer's plan to soften Brexit Katy Balls writes this week's cover piece on Labour's plans to establish close ties with the EU. Every member of Starmer's cabinet voted Remain, and the government is trying to ‘reset EU relations through a charm offensive'. Brussels figures are hopeful: ‘There was no real goodwill for the Conservative government.' There are tests coming: the first deal, Katy writes, could be harmonisation on veterinary standards. But will the UK have to abide by the European Court of Justice? Then there's the issue of Chinese electric cars: will Starmer accept cheap imports, or follow the EU in raising tariffs on them? For now, EU officials see the new PM as ‘workman-like and not playing to the gallery'. How long will that last? Katy Balls is joined by Anand Menon, director of the think tank UK in a changing Europe. (02:03) Then: In The Spectator this week Jonathan Miller writes about his experiences at the Hampshire public school Bedales. The school's alumni roster is impressive: royalty, celebrity, and several Spectator writers. But it has also courted controversy and criticism from some previous students. The novelist and writer Amanda Craig was one such former student, so highly critical of the school she authored a book ‘A Private Place' detailing her experiences. Jonathan and Amanda join the podcast to discuss the cult of Bedales. (19:22)  And finally: is there really reason to believe aliens exist? In the magazine this week, the astronomer and science writer Dr David Whitehouse says if aliens do exist, why can nobody find any proof of them. Despite the evidence, or lack thereof, why does the belief in aliens endure? And how much can we really read into the disclosures in the US about UAPs - Unidentified Aerial Platforms? David joins the podcast to discuss his article alongside space journalist Jonathan O'Callaghan. (31:24)  Hosted by Gus Carter and Lara Prendergast.  Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting David Whitehouse, CEO of Offshore Energies UK (OEUK), for a comprehensive discussion on UK and North Sea energy. David joined OEUK in January of this year and previously held senior roles at CNR International UK and Shell, working on projects from deepwater frontier developments in the Gulf of Mexico to managing mature assets in the UK's North Sea. As you will hear, David is pursuing a Master of Engineering in Renewable Engineering to complement his Ph.D. in Chemistry. OEUK is the leading trade association for the UK's integrated offshore energy industry and their membership boasts over 400 organizations in offshore oil, gas, carbon capture and storage, wind, and hydrogen. We were thrilled to visit with David. In our conversation, David first shares background on OEUK's 50-year history, its member companies, and the types of support they offer. We discuss the dynamic energy landscape in the North Sea and Europe, the UK's energy status including climate goals, energy security, the cost of energy, and the public's increased awareness of the importance of producing energy domestically. David touches on the UK's economic challenges, the UK's energy production, challenges faced by the industry, including recent windfall taxes that have led to a pullback in investments by operators in the North Sea, the potential impact of expensive energy on the industrial base, and the crucial role of reliable and affordable energy in successful economies. We explore the growth of offshore wind production, plans for carbon capture and storage projects, and the importance of continued investment in oil and gas to support the transition. We also ask David for his views on societal acceptance of the oil and gas sector in the UK, Brexit's impact on energy, government involvement and policies, infrastructure challenges, electricity demand, and the future workforce. The slides from today's discussion are linked here. It was a thought-provoking and wide-ranging conversation and we greatly appreciate David for sharing his insights and time. Mike Bradley kicked us off by discussing that the upcoming week's equity market trading may be dominated by trading churn, lacking significant economic data and an end to Q3 earnings reporting. He flagged that commodity and energy equity traders are particularly focused on the November 30th OPEC meeting, especially after being delayed from last weekend. He noted that several issues will be topical at the OPEC meeting this week: first, OPEC members (Angola & Nigeria = 2.6mmbpd of combined production) have been considered the main reason for the pushback in the OPEC meeting as both members appear to be angling for higher individual production baselines in 2024. Second, it's consensus that Russia & Saudi will extend 1.3mmbpd of production cuts though Q1'24. Finally, there doesn't appear to be any real consensus that additional cuts will be forthcoming, much less production cuts of size, because it would only provide additional price cover for non-OPEC producers. He also highlighted that even though 2023 global demand growth was substantial, what was also substantial was 2023 global oil production growth of ~2.5mmbpd, which was much higher than expected due to the lack of Iranian sanction enforcement (~600-700kbpd), higher than expected U.S. production growth (1.2mmbpd vs early '23 consensus of 0.7mmbpd) and continued growth from non-OPEC countries (Brazil & Guyana). He wrapped by noting that crude oil prices in 2024 could prove much more volatile, and that OPEC's ability to effectively manage oil markets in 2024 could be much more challenged, given that global demand growth may be slowing, and non-OPEC production will still be growing. Arjun Murti added his thoughts on the IEA's recent comments that t

Allister sat down with OEUK's new boss, David Whitehouse, recently to ask how he plans to make the case for the sector in the face of increasing public and political opposition. It's a tough ask, but there's a story to tell. In Angola, everyone who's anyone (in subsea anyway) has won work on Azule Energy's mammoth Agogo project, potentially signalling a new dawn for oil and gas in the West African country. And there's a sombre news from Fife, where dozens of workers have been let go at Harland & Wolff's Methil fabrication yard following the collapse of an offshore wind contract.

DAVID WHITEHOUSE – ABOUT A SON... with TRE's Giles Brown

Elizabeth Day talks to David Whitehouse about his new creative nonfiction

About A Son is the brilliant new book by David Whitehouse, about the brutal murder of 20-year old Morgan Hehir in Nuneaton in 2015. Told from the perspective of Morgan's father Colin Hehir, it's a powerful and moving account of trauma, grief and love. This beautifully written story had a real emotional impact on me. I was delighted to speak with David about how he came to write the book, the impact it had on his own mental health and the important lessons he learnt along the way about listening, sharing and hope. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

TW: This is an episode in which we talk about violence, loss and grief.This bonus episode is one of the most special, moving encounters I've ever had while doing this podcast. It was prompted by an incredible book I read while I was away over Christmas - a book unlike any other. But to explain how it came about, I need to take you back a few years.On 31st October 2015, 20-year-old Morgan Hehir was walking home after a night out with friends when he was viciously attacked by a group of strangers and stabbed in a random act of violence. He died later in hospital. In the aftermath of this tragedy, his father, Colin, started keeping a diary both of his grief and of his long fight to bring his son's killer to justice.That diary has now been turned into an extraordinary book, About A Son, written by the acclaimed novelist David Whitehouse. It's a book that moved me to tears with its empathy and precision. And it's a book that has brought me to Colin Hehir, who is today's guest on this very special episode of How To Fail.---About a Son is published tomorrow.

Neil, Buzz, and Michael made it look effortless, but the moon landing was neither easy nor inevitable.  Soon after President Kennedy publicly stated the goal of sending Americans to the moon, NASA confessed that the chances of success were only about 50/50.   But on July 20, 1969, despite enormous difficulties, astronauts stepped onto the lunar regolith. In this special anniversary episode, we go behind the iconic phrases and familiar photos to consider the errors, mishaps, and the Plan B contingencies that dogged the project, as well as hear of the hundreds of thousands of men and women who made Apollo 11 possible.    Guests: Charles Fishman -  author of “One Giant Leap: The Impossible Mission that Flew Us to the Moon” Matt Hayes -  President and CEO of the Museum of Flight, Seattle Geoff Nunn – Adjunct curator for Space History at the Museum of Flight. David Whitehouse –  Journalist, broadcaster, and author of “Apollo 11: The Inside Story” Dee O’Hara – NASA’s first aerospace nurse and flight nurse for the Apollo mission James Allen Joki – EMU Flight Controller, Apollo Mission Control, Houston. Ted Huetter – Museum of Flight public relations manager.

Acclaimed British science journalist Dr David Whitehouse remembers the people and events of the Moon Landing... 50 years ago...

Helen Castor presents the popular history magazine. She's joined by Dr Jane Hamlett from Royal Holloway University of London. It's 140 years since the UK prison system was nationalised and Iszi Lawrence visits Shrewsbury with Professor Alyson Brown from Edge Hill University to discover why a change in organisation was needed. Today, paying customers are experiencing life here at Her Majesty's pleasure - and all over the world people seem to want to visit places which have a grim and troubling past. So what's the appeal and the purpose of so-called "dark tourism"? Tom Holland talks to Dr Philip Stone from the University of Central Lancashire. The 2018 World Cup in Russia came at a time when President Putin's stock was high at home, but on the floor abroad. Not for the first time, football was seen as having the potential to offer a political leader a global platform. We go back to France '38 which was held against a backdrop of a growing global diplomatic crisis. Sports writer Julie Welch is joined by Professor Simon Martin and football journalist Jonathan Wilson to explain how, with civil war in Spain, the merging of the Austrian and German teams after the Nazi Anschluss and Mussolini promoting his brand of fascism through football, this really was a tournament with all to play for. Council budget cuts, E-readers and on-line delivery are all presenting challenges to Britain's library service, and mobile libraries in particular have been badly affected. But when did the library van first start doing its rounds? Author of Mobile Library, David Whitehouse, heads back home to Nuneaton and the mobile library his mother used to clean.

06: Cops are bad for mental health, Paul Heideman on Class Struggle and the Color Line In this week’s episode we talk to activist and author Paul Heideman about his new book, Class Struggle and the Color Line: American Socialism and the Race Question, 1900-1930. Most histories of the left claim that Communist Party members in the 1930s were the first U.S. socialists to prioritize the fight against racism, but Heideman’s collection of writings from a range of American radicals tells a different story. Paul talks with us about the overlooked contributions to the U.S. and international left made by Black socialists like Claude McKay and Cyrill Briggs, and how events like the Russian Revolution in 1917 and the race riots of 1919 helped set in motion the Black radical movement that didn’t fully flower for another two generations. If after listening to this episode you want to learn more about how the socialist movement approached the “race question”, you can (and should!) check out Class Struggle and the Color Line (http://bit.ly/HeidemanBook). Here are some other resources: A shorter introduction to the topic is John Riddell’s article for the International Socialist Review, “Black Liberation and the Communist International” (http://bit.ly/RiddellBlackLiberation). For more on Karl Marx’s avid interest in the fight against slavery, check out Donnie Schraffenberger’s “Karl Marx and the American Civil War” (http://bit.ly/MarxCivilWar). Danny goes off on one of his tangents, citing Oscar Ameringer’s classic socialist pamphlet “The Life and Deeds of Uncle Sam”, which you can find here (http://bit.ly/LifeDeedsUncleSam) and judge for yourself if it was really worth interrupting Paul. In our introduction, Danny and Eric discuss the contemporary horror of police killings of people in the midst of mental health episodes. The discussion quickly covers a lot of ground. Here are links for some of the cases and statistics we talk about: Shaun King’s article for The Intecept: “Danny Ray Thomas Was a Broken Man Who Needed Help. Instead He Was Gunned Down by a Cop in Broad Daylight.” (http://bit.ly/DannyRayThomas) The New York Daily News story about why New Yorkers are afraid of police showing up if they call 911 for a family member having an episode. (http://bit.ly/911Fears) Many of the statistics Jen cites about deadly interactions between police and people with mental illness come from the Treatment Advocacy Center (http://bit.ly/TreatmentAdvocacy) A talk given by socialist David Whitehouse on “The Origins of the Police” (http://bit.ly/PoliceOrigins) The Atlantic’s story on Cook County Jail being “America’s Largest Mental Hospital” (https://theatln.tc/2qudB6G) Music and audio from this episode: Lizard Eyes – The Boy & Sister Alma (Dead Sea Captains Remix) Jamilia Land, speaking at a rally on March 31 in Sacramento Swim Good – Frank Ocean Joe Hill and Let My People Go - Paul Robeson “If We Must Die” read by Claude McKay Keeanga-Yamahtta speaking on “The Fight Against the New Jim Crow” at the 2012 Socialism conference

Join us as we talk to Dr. David Whitehouse from UST Global about how and why technology can improve patient engagement.

A four-year bet about global warming between two scientists is settled. In 2008, after there had been no new record for the global average temperature set since 1998, David Whitehouse and James Annan disagreed over whether there would be a new record by 2011. As the UK Meteorological Office publishes the figures for the past year, presenter Tim Harford brings the two scientists together. Who has won, and does the victory tell us anything about global warming? Plus, Peter Stott from the Met Office tells us how the world's temperature is measured. Also in the programme: sports statistician Robert Mastrodomenico attempts to predict the results of the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations football tournament. Will his numerical analysis impress the BBC's African football expert Farayi Mungazi? This programme was originally broadcast on the BBC World Service.

High Speed rail - Tim Harford speaks to railway consultant Chris Stokes and Alison Munro from HS2 Ltd. He investigates the different measures of the rise in executive pay with Steve Tatton from Income Data Services and Sarah Wilson from research group Manifest. And resolves a four year-old bet on climate change between climate scientist James Annan and astrophysicist David Whitehouse and Wesley Stephenson looks behind the figures for youth unemployment in Spain.
