What can a taxi ride tell us about the state of the UK? Driving home is an immersive documentary staged inside a real black cab where audiences hear from taxi drivers across the UK about migration, belonging, politics, and community.Today on the podcast, Daphna Attias and Terry O'Donohue, the co-founders and artistic directors of Dante or Die, the theatre company behind the documentary, join Prospect's Sarah Collins to discuss what the interviews can tell us about life in the UK.They'll also discuss why they chose the locations of Hull, Bradford, Peckham, Basildon, Essex, Brighton, and the Isle of Sheppey to record their interviews with cabbies, and how each cab gives unique insights into the mood of the area. It feels almost like being in a confessional, they say.Sarah wrote a feature for the latest issue of Prospect, in collaboration with Dante or Die. Read it now on our website Hosted on Acast.

Nigel Farage has won the Clacton byelection he triggered by resigning from the seat because he wanted to allow voters to ‘stick two fingers up at the entire establishment'. The Reform UK leader's political finances were under investigation at the time. That process has now resumed, posing the risk of another byelection if Farage is found to have broken the rules. Has his party emerged stronger or weaker as a result of the byelection? And what next for Reform UK and its leader? Alexandra Topping and Rowena Mason discuss the fallout, and what it means.

The people of Clacton will be relieved it's over, but one candidate was conspicuously absent from the proceedings last night: Nigel Farage. He and his team will say he was advised not to attend because of a security threat, Essex police deny any such advice.Nonetheless, in a surprise to absolutely no one, Farage won the Clacton by-election, seeing off a record 33 other candidates. But just how impressive was the victory? Is Farage's win really as big as he'd have us believe? Or is it even more hollow than the bin he defeated?And, with the by-election behind him, attention now turns to the investigation into his £5 million in donations, which was swiftly reopened once the results were in. What happens next for Farage? And what does the Clacton result really tell us about his political future?The News Agents is a Global Production.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

A unos 35 ó 40 kilómetros al norte de Boston, entre las poblaciones de Wenham y Beverly, se encuentra el Lago Wenham, una masa de agua dulce situada en el condado de Essex, Massachusetts. Rodeado de bosques de robles, pinos y arces, el lago ofrece un entorno natural en el que se practican senderismo, avistamiento de aves, piragüismo y kayak. Su historia, sin embargo, está relacionada con un producto que llegó a convertirse en un negocio internacional: el hielo. Enrique Domínguez Uceta nos guía por esta apasionante historia.

Political Fix hit the Essex seaside this week to hear directly from Clacton voters ahead of the by-election next Thursday, which Nigel Farage has triggered in the wake of scrutiny of his finances. He's framing it as a “people versus the establishment” contest – but what do local residents think? Why, at a time when his national ratings have plunged, does the Reform leader's popularity in Clacton appear undiminished? Host Lucy Fisher is joined by political correspondent Anna Gross and UK chief political commentator Robert Shrimsley to discuss the contest and Reform's broader fortunes. Plus, the trio examine Kemi Badenoch's judgement in supporting the council candidacy of a former neo-Nazi, as well as the Tories' and Labour's efforts to convince business of their respective growth credentials.

Summer is here - we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious - but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardener's tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after their planty spaces, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.It's been yet another week of dry weather, and with no end in sight the gardening duo ponder what this might mean for the survival of certain insect species - friend and foe. Saul also reports back on his travels, and some exciting news for Plant Heritage, while Lucy turns her (tired) brain towards the Gardeners' World Autumn Fair at Audley End, Essex.  Instagram links:Saul plantsmansaulLucy lucychamberlaingardensIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

This podcast episode featured Verla Fortier interviewing Luke Suddards about his community-building initiative for new dads called The Walking Dad Club. Luke, a 37-year-old carpenter from Essex living in southwest London, created the walking group after experiencing a lack of community connection as a new dad. The club meets every 1st and 3rd Sunday at 9:30 AM at District Cafe near Battersea Park, where participating dads receive free coffee before taking a 45-minute walk around the park with their babies. Luke also conducts interviews with dads called "The Talking Dads" to share their experiences and struggles, which include sleep deprivation and balancing work and family life. The club has gained popularity with both regular attendees and new participants joining each session, and Luke envisions expanding the concept globally for dads worldwide to connect in nature.Walking Dads Club  InterviewVerla Fortier interviewed Luke Suddards about his program for new dads that incorporates green spaces, which was recommended to her by her son Max who lives in London with his new family. The interview was part of Verla's Outside Mindset podcast, which focuses on the benefits of spending time in nature. The conversation began with technical setup and introductions, with Verla explaining her podcast's purpose and Luke confirming his background before diving into details about his program for new fathers.New Dad Walking Club InitiativeLuke explained his motivation for creating a walking club for dads, which originated from his desire to find a community after moving to South West London and becoming a new father. He described how the idea formed while he was looking for a simple, low-barrier activity that new dads could easily participate in, given their busy schedules and tiredness. Luke mentioned that his partner Chelsea owns a cafe near Battersea Park, which would serve as a convenient meeting point for the walking club.The Walking Dad Club DiscussionLuke and Verla discussed the creation of "The Walking Dad Club," a community group for new fathers that Luke founded after noticing a lack of support for new dads compared to mothers. Luke explained that the club's name is a reference to the TV series "The Walking Dead" to represent how new fathers often feel exhausted and "walking dead." Verla shared positive feedback about the group's visibility and impact when they were seen in Battersea Park, with other families expressing interest in joining.Dads Meet-up and Interview InitiativeLuke described a regular meet-up for dads that takes place at District Cafe near Battersea Park in London every 1st and 3rd Sunday at half past nine. The group walks around the park for about 45 minutes starting around quarter to ten, with participants using a WhatsApp group to share live locations and coordinate. Luke also mentioned interviewing some dads through "The Talking Dads" initiative to document their experiences and struggles with work-life balance, sleep deprivation, and adjusting to fatherhood in the UK.Dads Podcast Planning DiscussionLuke discussed plans to create a podcast featuring in-depth interviews with individual dads to share experiences and tips. Verla expressed support for the initiative and highlighted research showing the benefits of outdoor activities for new dads. Luke emphasized how the group provides support, builds confidence, and serves as a positive model for father-child relationships and male community connections.The Walking Dad Club InitiativeLuke discussed his experience creating The Walking Dad Club, expressing surprise at how many people attended the first meeting after a previous book club attempt had no participants. He described the vision of a global movement where dads worldwide take walks at the same time on the first Sunday of each month, starting at 9:30 AM. Luke provided contact information for followers to connect with the club through Instagram @The_Walking_Dad_Club, email luke@thewalkingdadclub.com, or a WhatsApp group.Walking Club Instagram DiscussionLuke discussed his Instagram handle for his walking club, which shares general content about walking with children and updates on specific walks. Verla mentioned she would include the links in the show notes and encouraged listeners to follow the account. Verla thanked Luke for his work and encouraged listeners to reach out to friends for regular walks, emphasizing the benefits of connecting with nature and the mind.For peer reviewed research on how your time  spent in green space can change your  mindset,   balance  your nervous system and  your heart  rate please go to verlafortier.substack.com  and check out my books Take Back  Your Outside  Mindset:  Live Longer, Stress Less, and Control  Your Chronic Illness and  Optimize Your Heart Rate: Balance Your Mind and Body With Green Space

Drawing on Fred Rosen's book The Bayou Strangler, the segment follows the killing of Oliver LeBanks, beaten with a tire iron and dumped beneath a highway overpass near Metairie, and traces Dominique's earlier victims across St. Charles Parish, from nineteen-year-old David Mitchell in July 1997 to twenty-year-old Gary Pierre and thirty-eight-year-old Larry Ranson, most of them gay African American men lured with the promise of paid sex. It introduces Detective Lieutenant Dennis Thornton of the Jefferson Parish sheriff's office, who worked the LeBanks scene and set himself the task of linking the killings that DNA evidence would finally tie to Dominique.The episode closes with the June 10, 1960 disappearance of nine-year-old Alva Jean Parris, who vanished walking three blocks to her aunt's house from the Riverdale Apartments in Essex, Maryland. Five days later, searchers found her shoes in a marsh and her body in a shallow grave concealed with linoleum, sod, and twigs beside an abandoned farmhouse, her abdomen and pelvis coated in lye. Assistant Medical Examiner Dr. William Lovitt found decomposition too advanced to confirm a cause of death, though strangulation was suspected, and despite polygraph tests, a solid alibi clearing her mother Fredonia, and tips about a man seen in a sailor's hat, no suspect was ever charged in a case that remains open today.

Andrew Collins is a science and history writer who investigates advanced civilizations in prehistory. He is the co-discoverer of a massive cave complex beneath the Giza plateau, now known as “Collins' Cave.” The author of several books, including Origins of the Gods and Göbekli Tepe: Genesis of the Gods, he regularly appears on radio shows, podcasts, and TV series, including Ancient Aliens, The UnXplained with William Shatner, and Lost Worlds. He lives in Essex, England.Karahan Tepe is arguably the most exciting archaeological discovery of the twenty-first century. Consisting of a series of stone enclosures and rock-cut edifices carved out of a hillside in the remote Tektek Mountains of southeastern Turkey, it is changing everything we know about the emergence of civilization in the immediate aftermath of the last ice age.Chronicling his explorations of Karahan Tepe, Andrew Collins presents the first in-depth investigation of the discoveries at the site: who built it, its astronomical alignments, and its cosmological connections. He examines the intricate carvings and architectural features, including a newly discovered statue of a giant human figure. Explaining how the site functioned as a shamanic oracle center, Collins shows how its rock-cut structures were used to connect with the Milky Way's Galactic Bulge and stars of Scorpius in their role as the head and active spirit of a perceived cosmic serpent. He traces this serpent motif throughout history, identifying it with the biblical serpent of Eden, the kundalini of Vedic tradition, and the black snake of the Yezidis. He demonstrates how the belief in the existence of the Milky Way serpent among the inhabitants of Karahan Tepe went on to influence the foundation of the Gnostic Ophite mysteries suppressed by the Christian Church. He also shows how the founders of Karahan Tepe were recalled in Hebrew myth and legend as the Watchers and Nephilim and in Sumerian and Babylonian mythology as the Anunnaki.His book on Karahan Tepe is in-depth investigation of the ancient structures at Karahan Tepe, its builders, and its cosmic shamanic purpose – now both available in English and Turkish: https://www.andrewcollins.com/page/books/index.htm Follow Andrew's work:https://www.instagram.com/andrew_collins_author/ https://www.facebook.com/AndrewCollinsAuthor https://www.andrewcollins.com/ Visit Law of Positivism:https://www.instagram.com/lawofpositivism/Website: https://www.lawofpositivism.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawofpositivism/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/lawofpositivismTikTok: www.tiktok.com/@lawofpositivism

One of Britain's most controversial politicians and leader of the right-wing Reform Party, Nigel Farage, has announced he is quitting his seat so he can clear his name over financial allegations. His resignation has triggered a by-election in the Essex seat of Clacton - but none of the major parties plan to stand against him. At this stage, there is only one satirical opponent standing - Count Binface, who always appears in public with a dustbin on his head. Mr Farage was a key figure in the campaign for Britain to leave the EU. A donation of five million pounds by a supporter based in Thailand has seen accusations that Mr Farage should have declared it to Parliament, but didn't. He claims the establishment and the media are using “foul means” to stop him. Tim Bale is professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London and he told the Associated Press Mr Farage is taking quite a gamble.

Together they explore the differences between rewilding and renaturing, the value of close observation, and how thoughtful, small-scale interventions can help restore nature—making it an ideal companion to Charlie's discussion of rewilding in a garden setting. Episode 239: Growing Biodiversity In this episode, Sarah chats with gardener Benny Hawksbee about bringing biology and ecology into horticulture. From creating wildlife-friendly gardens to challenging traditional gardening practices and encouraging community involvement, it's a natural follow-on from Charlie's ideas about designing and managing gardens with biodiversity at their heart.

Summer is here, and for years, Dan has spent part of his summer in New England visiting family and friends. This week he's visiting two New England summer institutions. First is Woodman's—known as the place where fried clams were invented—in Essex, Massachusetts, the clam capital of America.

Then, Dan heads to Grace Church on Martha's Vineyard, which has some of his favorite lobster rolls of all time. While there, Dan finds out a shocking secret about these very special lobster rolls.

A shape forming in an old refectory. A drinks can struck by something that wasn't there. A blistered figure in a West Witton bedroom… and a white lady drifting through the walls of an Elizabethan manor.In this collection of Fright Bites, four listener accounts bring together fleeting but unforgettable moments of the unexplained. A volunteer in a historic house sees white smoke gather into something almost human, before a later joke is answered by an icy touch to the face. On a quiet Essex road in the 1990s, an empty can shoots from beneath a parked car with no visible cause. A holiday cottage in West Witton becomes the setting for a series of disturbing night-time encounters connected to the legend of Owd Bartle. And at a Wiltshire manor, a witness recalls the white lady, the children who came and went, and other apparitions tied to old buildings and older memories.Short, intimate, and witness-led, these are the kinds of experiences that leave no easy explanation - only the lasting sense that something briefly crossed over into ordinary life.Enjoyed the episode?

For this episode, we go where no podcast has gone before - welcome to Three Ravens Live @ Great Dunmow BookFest!During a one day festival where an entire Essex town famous for giving out sides of bacon to married couples turned itself into a bookshop, we were warmly welcomed to Jack's 1952, an outdoor goods shop who gave us a space in their basement and several dozen camping chairs to record a free 45 minute show. Our audience ranged from newborn children gurgling away up to retirees, along with hardened Three Ravens fans, and plenty of people who had never heard of us before!With regular interruptions from the beeping sounds of the shop's door being opened upstairs, and customers popping by to purchase hiking boots, we carried on regardless, with Eleanor joined by our friend and regular collaborator Katie Sommers to sing a capella versions of Three Ravens, Sumer is icumen in, and We Gets Up In The Morn.Between these musical highlights we dig into some of our favourite bits of Essex's folklore, including the ghostly goings-on at Borley Rectory and the legend of Old King Cole, the county's six distinct dragon tales, the Canvey Island Monster, Boudica's rampage, and the sad fate of Anglo Saxon queen Edith Swan-neck. Also including Eleanor's telling of the tale of the weather witch Sarah Moore of Leigh on Sea in the form of Three Knots, it's a slightly mad show, and hopefully an interesting listen!We really hope you enjoy the episode, and will speak to you again on Monday for the penultimate episode of our Bonus Series Magus, all about the magical life of 16th century occultist, scholar, and theologian Cornelius Agrippa!Three Ravens is an English myth and folklore podcast hosted by Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England or Wales' 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of a traditional story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county - and Live Shows come out on Saturdays.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Conquest and the Legacy of the Ulster Plantation. Guest: Patrick Scanlan. Batchelor and Scanlan trace the historical roots of land ownership in Ireland back to the conquests of Elizabeth I and Oliver Cromwell. Scanlan uses Shirley Castle in County Monaghan as an emblem of this era, noting the family were descendants of the Earl of Essex who received the land during the Ulster Plantation. The castle was a 19th-century faux-Tudor structure meant to evoke an ancient past, but it masked a modern economic reality: landlords were sophisticated merchants connected to global markets. Ireland was a place of extreme capital poverty despite being integrated into the British imperial economy through professional land managers and rent collection. Understanding this discrepancy is crucial, as the landscape looked medieval while operating as a modern merchant enterprise. Scanlan emphasizes that the Shirleys were not medieval overlords but modern businesspeople extracting value from a tenant population forced onto the land by conquest. 31947 IRELAND
