The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is nothing if not a podcast of juxtapositions and contrasts, like mixing vintage TV shows with digital platforms, and necking Malibu and Quatro out of the antique sherry glasses. And it's this grating collision of 1980s futurism and sepia-toned yesteryear to which the hosts turn once again, because everyone knows it's not really a horror-season if you don't put A Dracula™ in it... Yes, messrs Velvet, Blackout and Bognops break out the garlic and make sure the pooper-scoopers are within arm's reach, as Flash Gordon, The Phantom and a host of King Features chums (as well as a minibus full of their kids) find themselves knee-deep in Transylvanian doings when the Defenders Of The Earth (defenders...) wonder what exactly has gone into Dracula's Potion. How many biological-photocopying superpowers does Dracula have that that even Bram Stoker didn't know about? How does the Grade-2-listed status of a 900yr old Eastern European castle affect a local authority application for an on-site massage parlour with neon-pink accent lighting? And how do the Defenders Of The Earth (defenders...) think that turning up unannounced in a remote woodland village dressed like the Aerobics-Wing of the Gladiators isn't going to lead to a little bit of adverse comment at the very least? Nip round to Phaze for a quick change of clothes, press Play and find out... The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

Sebastian and Rutendo celebrate nature's defenders in all their forms. They argue that vultures should get more credit for their vital role as scavengers. Their super-acidic stomachs kill off deadly bacteria, like anthrax, that accumulates onrotting carcasses. This prevents the spread of disease and recycles nutrients back into the environment.Molecular biologist Mike Kolomiets tells us that the fragrance of newly mown grass isactually a scream for help and a warning to nearby plants that a herbivore is around. Grass can defend itself by releasing toxic metabolites and summoning the assistance of parasitic wasps that attack plant-eating caterpillars.We hear from prominent Brazilian climate activists Sônia Guajajara and Celia Xakriabá, both of whom believe that inidigenous women have a vital role to play inthe fight to preserve Brazil's vast biodiversity.Biologist and comedian Simon Watt argues that to protect the biodiversity of our planet we need to be less fixated on cute creatures which are “lucky enough to havea face”, and take more interest in Earth's ugly animals.Credits:The BBC Earth podcast is presented by Sebastian Echeverri and Rutendo Shackleton.This episode was produced by Rachel Byrne and Geoff Marsh.The researchers were Seb Masters and Dawood Quereshi.The Production Manager was Catherine Stringer and the Production Co-ordinator was Gemma Wootton.Podcast Theme Music was composed by Axel Kacoutié, with mixing and additional sound design by Peregrine Andrews.The Associate Producer is Cristen Caine and the Executive Producer is Deborah Dudgeon.Special thanks to:Mike Kolomiets from Texas A&M University for sharing his research into grass.Simon Watt from the Ugly Animal Preservation Society.Alice Aedy for the report from Brazil and her interviewees Sônia Guajajara, Célia Xakriabá.Interviewee Carl Gerhardt from University of Missouri and Lang Elliot for the amphibious soundscape.

Following a coup in 2009, Honduras has consistently been one of the most dangerous places in the world to be an environmental defender. According to Global Witness research, 109 people have been killed since 2012 – for standing up to the exploitation of the country's natural resources and protecting their land. Guapinol is a semi-rural community in the lush, mineral-rich Bajo Agua region in northern Honduras. People there depend on the natural environment for their livelihoods – especially the Guapinol river, which is their sole source of drinking water. The State of Honduras, through its Institute of Geology and Mines, entered into contracts allowing an open pit mine in a national park. The mining operation polluted local water supplies and caused other environmental damage.A peaceful protest camp set up to oppose the open pit mine was stormed by armed security guards employed by the mining company. The protesters arrested are in jail awaiting trial on charges linked to their opposition to the mine. The episode features Juan Antonio Lopez, a member of the Municipal Committee for the Defence of the Common and Public Assets of Tocoa, Juana Zúniga, also a member of the committee, Edy Tabora, a lawyer defending some of the protestors, Rachel Cox, campaigner at Global Witness, and Father Melo, a priest and human rights defender in Guapinol.Defenders of the Earth captures the gripping and inspiring stories of activists around the world who are taking on powerful interests to protect our planet. Our presenter is Vanessa Nakate, climate justice activist from Uganda. Our episodes profile activists in Russia, Liberia, Honduras, and the Philippines. As climate activist and journalist Bill McKibben wrote in Last Line of Defence, a report from Global Witness released in September 2021, land and environmental defenders ”are at risk, in the end, not just because of another local person who pulls the trigger or plunges the blade; they're at risk because they find themselves living on or near something that some corporation is demanding.”In 2020, 227 activists were murdered for taking a stand to defend human rights, their land, and our environment. Over a third of the attacks were reportedly linked to resource exploitation — logging, mining, and large-scale agribusiness — and hydroelectric dams and other infrastructure. And that number is likely to be higher due to poor reporting. Defenders of the Earth is produced by Global Witness and Whistledown Productions.

A 2006 recipient of the Goldman Environmental Prize, Silas Siakor has dedicated his life to fighting for the disempowered in Liberia, a country where corruption and land grabs have led to a massive gap between the haves and have-nots.Liberia is known for its lush rolling forests covering around 45% of the country. But between 1990 and 2010, Liberia lost over 12% of its forest cover. This has left the country even more vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events, while at the same time homes and livelihoods are being destroyed by extensive logging and palm oil production. Although there are laws meant to curtail these practices, Liberia's forests continue to be ‘hijacked' by big business. Silas Siakor has dedicated his life to trying to protect this environment. He, along with other activists, have taken great personal risks to collect evidence of falsified logging records, illegal logging practices, and evidence of associated human rights abuses.The episode features Silas Siakor, human rights lawyer Jonathan Kaufman, and Alfred Brownell, a Liberian environmental activist and lawyer and the founder of Green Advocates International. Defenders of the Earth captures the gripping and inspiring stories of activists around the world who are taking on powerful interests to protect our planet.

It's The Phantom!This movie exists in the sweet spot of not being bad, bordering on fun but being completely and utterly forgettable. I genuinely can't even remember which movie we're talking about now. I can, of course. It's 1996's The Phantom.Plus!Someone apparently wrote a script - AS A JOKE - that wasn't meant to be made with a bad ending. Allegedly, most of that is in this movie. Listen to find out our thoughts on it. Particularly Madge's because she didn't know this clever fact going on in and deduces that there's something not right with the dialogue. Again, there's a lot to like including the performances. There's just something off about the whole thing and the ending is a bit out of nowhere. Worth a watch though and this episode is worth a bloody listen.Also!Did you know that Phantom writer, Lee Falk, basically invented superheroes and how they look? It's true! Forget Superman and Batman and all that. The Phantom and a dear magician friend of his are the ones who deserve the credit. Listen for the full anecdote and an absolute gem of a story about how The Phantom managed to work his way into tribal culture for real!Thanks for listening.
