RHLSTP #576 - Dog Sharpener - A big storm is supposed to hit Edinburgh today, but so far it's just been a bit blowy, though maybe the storm will manage to make an appearance in the show. Richard is talking to comedian and rock star Andrew O' Neill. Will Rich remember to use the correct non-binary terms or will he fuck up immediately? Who knows? There's some great chat about changing attitudes to individuality, plus the comedic process, how surreal comedy is a rare skill and staying true to yourself, plus Andrew having to do a 90s style Edinburgh show because they broke their leg and have been on morphine, playing Jongleurs without compromising your act, the joy of connecting with one (and only one) audience member and how it's disappointing that TV just doesn't take a punt on interesting comedians any more.See Andrew's stand up show Escape here https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/andrew-o-neill-escapeSee Andrew's History of Punk (but only if you like punk) here https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/andrew-o-neill-s-history-of-punkSee RHLSTP live in Bewdley (and maybe elsewhere) http://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.

God Created Doctors Too!Sirach 38:12-14 “Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him. There may come a time when recovery lies in the hands of physicians, for they too pray to the Lord that he grant them success in diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life.”This week I got the opportunity to go to the beach with a few friends. I don't often go to the beach, especially not in the middle of the week, and it was a really great time. What made this trip to the beach extra special was that we started our day at the beach with some faith sharing. The theme for mentoring this month is Godly Friendships, and so I want to take a minute to thank the Lord for these ladies. Ours truly is a Godly friendship. We pray together, we pray for each other and our families, we build each other up, we encourage each other, and we help each other become more holy. We always point each other back to Jesus.It is so important that we all have people in our lives like this. We all need others to pray for and with us. We need people we can talk to about anything, especially our faith journey. We need people we can be open and honest with about our faith journey. Those who won't judge us, but will encourage us and help us when we are struggling. On that beach, we each took 10 minutes or so and talked about what is going on in our faith journey. We talked about our blessings and our struggles, and then we prayed into those struggles. It really was beautiful.While we were talking, someone mentioned this verse in Sirach. The Lord brought it to my mind this morning during Adoration, and so I thought I would share it with you. I know several people right now who are struggling with physical ailments. They have been to all the doctors, and either the doctors can't figure out what is wrong with them, or they do know, but they haven't come up with a suitable treatment plan. There are also some who know exactly what is wrong, but there is no human cure for it, and so they are waiting for the Lord to miraculously heal them.Today, I want to talk to those of you who are fed up with the doctors and just want to be healed already. I know some of you are so frustrated because you have been praying for the Lord to heal you for a long time now, and you haven't seen any fruit from those prayers. You have been asking for a miraculous healing, and those prayers seem to have gone unanswered. If this is you, then this message is definitely for you today. If you have been praying for someone who has been struggling for a very long time and has not seen answers to prayers, then this is for you, too!The verse above says, “Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him. There may come a time when recovery lies in the hands of physicians, for they too pray to the Lord that he grant them success in diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life.” We would all like to be miraculously and instantaneously healed by Jesus. However, this verse is telling us that the Lord created physicians, and sometimes we need them. The verse tells us that we should not let them leave us because we need them. It says that there may come a time when recovery lies in the hands of the physicians.I know this is not what some of you wanted to hear from the Lord today. I know many of you are frustrated with the physicians you are seeing. You are frustrated with the lack of answers, or you are frustrated with the answers they are giving you. You don't like their plan. Some of you are also scared. You have a long history with doctors or surgeries, and you do not want to try again.If this is you, I am so sorry. I am sorry for all your past trauma with doctors or surgeries. I am sorry for all the current pain you are experiencing or the circumstances you are facing. You may have a good reason to mistrust your doctor. I am not trying to second-guess you. If you need to find a new doctor, pray that the Lord points you to the right one. All I felt like the Lord wanted me to share with you today was that he created everything, including doctors.I like where the verse says, “for they too pray to the Lord that he grant them succession diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life.” We tend to think we need to be for medicine and doctors or for God. Often, we put them on opposing sides, and we say that if we really believed in God, we wouldn't need to go to the doctor because our faith would heal us. Did you know that two things can be true at the same time? For instance, you can be happy and sad at the same time. I am happy that my son is starting a new year of college. I am happy that he is going to college in Edinburgh, Scotland, and is taking advantage of this wonderful opportunity to travel, grow more independent, and get a good college education. And also I am sad because it means I will not get to see him for 3 and a half months. Both things are true.The same is true with faith and medicine. You can have faith that God will heal you and still take that medicine, still see that doctor, still do the treatments prescribed. You don't have to choose one or the other. I think God is reassuring us of this in Sirach 38. He wants us to know that he created doctors, and he uses doctors to heal people. We will ask others to pray over us for a healing, right? Why do we do that? We ask others to pray over us because we know that God can use anyone to heal us. He can use a priest with the anointing of the sick. He can use your mom, dad, or even a friend. He can use someone from the church or someone who has a healing charism. God can use literally anyone, or no one, to heal you. He could just heal you in your sleep without anyone praying over you. If we have enough faith to believe that God can use anyone to heal us, then why are we sad or disappointed when He uses a doctor?It can still be a miraculous healing even if it was done through a doctor or through medicine. Go back and listen to the Witness Wednesday from yesterday, August 13th, 2025. I believe it is Witness Wednesday #172. There was a man in the article who had stage 4 cancer. It was a particularly treatment-resistant type. The doctor wanted to try a hormonal treatment along with the chemo to shrink the tumor. He took the medicine, and in three months the tumor was gone. That is still a miracle, no matter how you look at it. It doesn't matter that it was through medicine, and it doesn't matter that it was by a doctor. The tumor went away. Hallelujah!! God is so good!I pray that when you hear this episode today, you stop and take a minute to thank God for the doctors and all medical professionals in this world. I pray that you thank him for your doctors, and if you think you need new ones, now is a perfect time to ask Him to bring the right doctors into your life. I also pray you cut yourself some slack and realize that you don't have to do anything to heal yourself. Just keep asking God for what you need, and I promise HE WILL PROVIDE! He always does!!Dear heavenly Father, I ask that you be with all those listening. Lord, please come to the rescue of all those who are suffering. Lord, if you want to heal them through a doctor, please put the right doctor in their path. If you want to heal them miraculously right now, we are good with that, too! Lord, you know the plans you have for us. Please help us hold on until those good, good plans you have for us come into fruition. Lord, we love you so much, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen!!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. Reminder: Click here for all the information on my retreat in October. It is going to be a great weekend! I hope you will join me. It won't be the same without you! Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day!!Today's Word from the Lord was received in January 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com.

The fourteenth day of the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe.
Scottish Ballet's new production Mary, Queen of Scots is a punk inspired production which tells the story of the ill-fated queen through the imagination and memories of her cousin, Elizabeth I, who authorised her execution. And a Fringe production Mary Queen of Rock portrays Mary as a rock star in a world in which rock and roll is banned. We discuss why her story continues to inspire so many productions today. Eva Victor, star of Sorry, Baby, the opening film of this year's Edinburgh International Film Festival, talks about her darkly comic treatment of the aftermath of a sexual assault. Theatre critics Fergus Morgan and Neil Cooper talk us through some of the highlights of this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe - from Eat the Rich (But Maybe Not Me Mates X), a one-woman show by Liverpudlian actor and director Jade Franks in which she tells the story of being a misfit at Cambridge University to Lost Lear, a retelling of Shakespeare's King Lear told through the eyes of a woman with dementia. Plus a live performance from musician Hamish Hawk, who is paying tribute to the late great poet and eccentric Ivor Cutler at this year's Edinburgh International Book Festival, complete with Cutler's own harmonium.
In this episode, Joshua Sirlin joins the conversation to talk all things Black Bear Brand, from its roots to building a name that stands out. We talk about sitting with Scotland rugby star Darcy Graham on a flight to Edinburgh, the value of travel, and adventures in Japan and America. We also dive into the future with chats on AI, stem cell technology, and the importance of living in the moment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In his book, Money, Value, and the State: Sovereignty and Citizenship in East Africa (Cambridge University Press, 2024), Kevin Donovan argues that East African decolonization was not coterminous with political sovereignty but rather consisted of a longer process of reorganizing how value was legitimately defined, produced, and distributed. It is an analysis of how postcolonial states tried to remake economic temporalities, space, and standards and how citizens pursued alternatives that subverted economic sovereignty. This is a story of central banking, national currencies, and coffee smuggling, as well as rites of initiation and econometric modelling. An article from the project -- on coffee smuggling, kinship relations, and measurement devices -- was published in Cultural Anthropology, and one on economic crimes, scarcity, and accusation was published in Journal of African History. Kevin Donovan is an anthropologist and historian of East Africa. He works in the fields of economic and political anthropology, African history, and science & technology studies at the University of Edinburgh as a Senior Lecturer. Sara Katz has a Ph.D. in African History from the University of Michigan, and is currently a Project Manager in the Office of Global Affairs at the University of Washington, Seattle.

In 1860, a blaze in the Kildare Street Club led to the death of three workers and the destruction of an institution. Together with other fires of the era, this provided the imperative for a municipal fire service. While Captain James Robert Ingram's name is associated with the ‘Whiskey Fire' of 1875, there were many other significant fires, including the destruction of Dublin's Theatre Royal. This all occurred in a time when a new scientific approach to firefighting was taking shape, thanks to the pioneering writing of James Braidwood, influenced by the Great Fire of Edinburgh. This episode explores the emergence of modern firefighting, and how Edinburgh and London paved the way for what followed in Dublin. Las Fallon is the author of The Great Liberties Whiskey Fire (2025) available from Chapters Bookshop and online from Kenny's at: https://www.kennys.ie/shop/the-great-liberties-whiskey-fire-fallon-las-9781916742673-1

The thirteenth day of the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe.
An interview with Dr. Chloë Williamson, Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh.We're not rational, and the guidelines and the way they're traditionally messaged and have been messaged assumes that humans are rational and that they'll do things that they know is good for them. But in actual fact, your day to day behavior is driven by what you enjoy. And if people can find a physical activity they enjoy and if that's how we can change the way people think about physical activity, to not being a chore, to not being a punishment, not being a way to just burn calories, but a way to have fun and feel good, then I think that's what we need to see.Dr. Chloë WilliamsonMotivation for researching physical activity messagingEffective physical activity messagingPhysical Activity Messaging FrameworkChecklist for physical activity messagingMessaging physical activity to new mothersMatching messaging to messaging channelsChanging how people think about physical activityPrioritizing enjoyment and short-term benefits in physical activity messaginghttps://www.movetolivemore.com/https://www.movetolivemore.com/bookhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/move-to-live-more@MovetoLiveMorehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/357165934_The_Physical_Activity_Messaging_Framework_PAMF_and_Checklist_PAMC_International_consensus_statement_and_user_guide

This week I'm delighted to welcome back to The Shift one of my most listened-to guests, Nicola Sturgeon. When we last spoke, at the start of 2022, Nicola was First Minister of Scotland - the first woman to hold the role, the first woman in 600 years to be the keeper of the seal. And During her tenure, she was widely acknowledged to be one of the most impactful politicians of her generation. During our last conversation, she spoke for the first time about how it felt to experience menopausal symptoms in the corridors of power. Her candour was one of the things that opened the floodgates of the menopause conversation. But that was then. A year later she shocked the world by resigning from the role she had been working towards since she was 16, in an attempt to build a life outside politics and away from the public glare. Now she's written a book, Frankly, a personal and political memoir about her life in politics. And, like it's title suggests, she's tried not to pull any punches or side step any issues - personal or political. Nicola came to hang out in my living room in Edinburgh to discuss the decision to leave (and why she can't see a man making the same call) and the impact of spending the next two years under a cloud of suspicion. We also discussed class, confidence, turning back the clock, the price of success for women, learning to drive at 53, and finally having the freedom to get a tattoo! * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including Frankly by Nicola Sturgeon as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

In his book, Money, Value, and the State: Sovereignty and Citizenship in East Africa (Cambridge University Press, 2024), Kevin Donovan argues that East African decolonization was not coterminous with political sovereignty but rather consisted of a longer process of reorganizing how value was legitimately defined, produced, and distributed. It is an analysis of how postcolonial states tried to remake economic temporalities, space, and standards and how citizens pursued alternatives that subverted economic sovereignty. This is a story of central banking, national currencies, and coffee smuggling, as well as rites of initiation and econometric modelling. An article from the project -- on coffee smuggling, kinship relations, and measurement devices -- was published in Cultural Anthropology, and one on economic crimes, scarcity, and accusation was published in Journal of African History. Kevin Donovan is an anthropologist and historian of East Africa. He works in the fields of economic and political anthropology, African history, and science & technology studies at the University of Edinburgh as a Senior Lecturer. Sara Katz has a Ph.D. in African History from the University of Michigan, and is currently a Project Manager in the Office of Global Affairs at the University of Washington, Seattle.

25 Days with Adam Knox, Peter Jones, Luka Muller & many, many more.
The twelth day of the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe.
This week on the Jewellers Academy podcast, Anna Campbell is in conversation with Lynn Powell. Anna is the founder and tutor for Jewellery School Scotland, teaching sell-out jewellery workshops in Edinburgh. Lynn Powell is the founder of the Arienas Collective, a creative workshop hub in Edinburgh. The collective was set up to help local artists and makers make a living doing what they love. Anna teaches her workshops exclusively with the Arienas Collective and they regularly sell out months in advance. The Arienas Collective recently curated an exhibition called Love or Money, which explored how artists make money. As part of that exhibition to support artists and makers, they did a talk on selling out workshops. This was a popular talk and so they have brought it to the podcast. This is more of a masterclass than a podcast with so many great insights shared for anyone running creative workshops. A summary of their top 10 tips for selling out jewellery workshops: 1. Location is important - consider good transport links or ample parking 2. Beware of being in competition with yourself in one area. Pick a location to teach 3. Make sure your location is clear in your social media and on your website. People will Google for jewellery workshops + location and that helps you show up in the Google ranking 4. Teach something that you can't find very widely - a type/style of jewellery making or project 5. Have a choice of dates available but not too many, you can always add more 6. Have an intermediate/next level courses available for those who want to do more 7. Offer gift vouchers and sell creative experiences 8. Try different things. What works really well one year may not the next year, and what didn't sell at all might suddenly start selling 9. Try listing on places that people look for craft workshops e.g. Craft Bento and Craft Courses 10. Keep going. It can take time for the reputation to build and for word of mouth to happen Whether you're a jeweller, maker, or creative entrepreneur, this episode is packed with practical, proven advice. If you want to fill your classes and grow your teaching income with confidence and clarity, this episode is a must-listen. About Anna Campbell Anna is the award-winning founder of Jewellery School Scotland, teaching 5 star rated silver clay jewellery making workshops from the Arienas Collective in Edinburgh, Scotland. She is one of the lead tutors for the online Diploma in Silver Metal Clay from Jewellers Academy. Anna is also the founder of Good Girl Rebellion. The Good Girl Rebellion is about reclaiming power, building wealth, visibility and autonomy on your terms. It's a roadmap to stop growing other people's dreams and start building your own. We don't need to change who we are, we need to shake off the good girl conditioning of compliance, people pleasing, perfectionism and proving our worth. Her book Good Girl Rebellion is out on 2nd September 2025. https://www.goodgirlrebellion.com/ https://www.jewelleryschoolscotland.co.uk/ Instagram @annaccampbell About Lynn Powell The Arienas Collective creative workshop hub is based in the Georgian mews home of founder Lynn Powell's home in Edinburgh's historic New Town. Lynn set up the Collective to help local artists earn a living through sharing their creative skills and passions with others, driven by the belief that there is a creative being within everyone awaiting the right support and encouragement to be released. A passionate believer in the power of collaborative working, she applies her marketing, community engagement, education and team building skills and experience to support the growth of The Arienas Collective: in return, the Collective plays a key part in Lynn's personal creative life. https://www.thearienascollective.com/ Instagram @arienas_collective

(00:00) Weekend Golf Trip to Scotland This chapter features a lively conversation with Jeff Smith, a Golf Magazine Top 100 teacher, and returning guest Kelly Stenson, who shares her recent golfing adventure in Scotland with her 15-year-old son. We explore the joys of playing golf in new places, especially the bucket-list experience of playing in Scotland. Kelly emphasizes the importance of spending quality time with family on the golf course and encourages listeners to travel and explore new courses, whether abroad or within the United States. We reflect on the cherished memories made during such trips and the lasting impact they have on family bonds. (10:39) Scotland Golf Trip Highlights and Tips This chapter focuses on the joys and challenges of playing golf in windy conditions and the intricacies of planning golf trips with family versus fellow golfers. We share experiences of managing high winds on the golf course, the necessity of adapting one's game, and the importance of having the right equipment, like the three wood. We also explore the dynamics of travel golf, emphasizing the balance between golfing and other activities, especially when traveling with family. Kelly Stenzel, a prominent figure in golf media and a PGA master professional, joins us to recount her recent golf trip to Scotland. She describes the excitement of driving on the left side of the road, the beauty of Edinburgh, and her preference for spontaneous exploration over structured tours, highlighting the captivating allure of St. Andrews and the surrounding countryside. (14:11) Scottish Golf Course Experiences This chapter takes us on a journey through the challenges and joys of driving and golfing in Scotland. We explore the experience of adapting to left-hand driving on narrow roads, often while being guided by vigilant family members. I share my own experiences, navigating with a minivan full of backseat drivers while shifting gears with my left hand. The conversation transitions to golfing adventures, highlighting iconic courses like Cruden Bay and Brora, with its sheep and cows roaming freely. We touch on the unique landscapes and weather conditions that add to the charm and challenge of Scottish golf courses. Additionally, we discuss the accessibility of these courses, noting the combination of private and public options available to enthusiasts willing to explore local offerings. Whether staying in quaint coastal towns or sampling mysterious local dishes, the essence of embracing the local culture and savoring each moment is emphasized throughout our travels. (19:34) Golf Travel Destinations and Cultural Experiences This chapter takes listeners on a global journey of golfing experiences, starting with a recount of a memorable game at Crail, a picturesque golf course near St Andrews, Scotland. We discuss the charm of small towns and the cultural nuances encountered, such as the distinct Scottish dialect and its sometimes playful use. The conversation shifts to the cultural significance of golf in Japanese business etiquette, with anecdotes highlighting the importance of golfing skills in corporate environments. We also share personal travel experiences across the United States and beyond, exploring golf destinations from Florida to the majestic landscapes of Wyoming and Montana, and expressing aspirations to visit Banff and Lake Louise. The episode is filled with laughter and admiration for the beauty of these courses and the unique experiences they offer, underscoring the universal allure of golf as a connector across cultures and landscapes. (34:28) Junior Golf Success and Travel Ideas This chapter explores the excitement and satisfaction of working with junior golfers, highlighting Ava Bunker's impressive performance at the World Juniors in Pinehurst and her journey through age classes in competitive golf. We discuss the joy of seeing young players excel and the importance of recognizing their hard work and achievements. Shifting gears, the idea of creating golf travel trails, similar to Kentucky's Bourbon Trail, is examined, suggesting that golf courses could collaborate to attract tourists by offering travel packages along I-64. We also share lighthearted anecdotes about bourbon tasting experiences, both in Louisville and during travels, while considering personal tastes and preferences in spirits. (39:27) Golf Bunker Tips and Techniques This chapter takes us on a journey to the iconic golf courses of Scotland, where we explore the challenges of navigating the deep, daunting bunkers that define these legendary landscapes. Reflecting on personal experiences at St Andrews, including the infamous Hell Bunker, we discuss the critical techniques required to conquer these sandy obstacles. Key insights include the importance of maintaining good technique, using a lofted club, and applying a forceful, downward swing to create an explosive burst of sand that lifts the ball out. We also recount the story of Bobby Jones and his struggle with the notorious greenside bunker on the 11th hole at St Andrews, emphasizing that even the best can be humbled by these treacherous traps. Wrapping up, we offer a unique analogy likening bunker shots to scooping a spider out of a pool, leaving listeners with practical advice for their next round of golf.
