Lawyer John Coyle makes his debut on the morning to discuss a big win of his, after a New Jersey court ruled in his favor that the County of Essex engaged in religious discrimination when it denied a groundskeeper's request for a religious exemption from a mandatory Covid-19 vaccine.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sid-friends-in-the-morning--7177409/support.

In March 2014, 33-year-old James Attfield was found brutally murdered in Castle Park in Colchester, Essex. Just a few months later, 31-year-old Saudi Arabian student Nahid Almanea was attacked and killed while walking along a secluded footpath on her way to the University of Essex. The two murders appeared to have little in common, but detectives soon began asking whether they could have be committed by the same perpetrator.For the people of Colchester, the possibility that a killer was randomly targeting strangers was deeply unsettling. Major police investigations were launched, hundreds of potential witnesses were spoken to, and numerous people were arrested and eliminated from the inquiry. Yet for more than a year, detectives struggled to identify the person responsible, while the fear within the local community continued to grow.In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, I examine the murders of James Attfield and Nahid Almanea, their lives before they were killed, the investigations that followed both attacks, and the extraordinary discovery that would eventually bring the case to its conclusion. We look at the evidence that connected the two murders, the investigation that finally identified the killer, and the courtroom battle over his responsibility for what he had done, in a case that left the people of Colchester asking how two apparently random victims had ended up at the centre of the same terrible story.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

Recorded live at BizFest in Essex, this is the story of how a near-death moment became a £16 million business.Jo Tutchener Sharp had built a successful career – running the beauty division of Purple PR, leading communications at Estée Lauder, then founding her own agency, Beauty Scene, and growing it to a turnover of around £5 million. In 2015, with two young boys at home, she decided to step away. But the stress of the exit took a physical toll, and shortly afterwards she suffered a brain haemorrhage that could bleed again at any moment, with potentially fatal consequences.Facing what she calls her "pearly gates" moment, Jo was overwhelmed not by fear but by regret – the feeling that, were she to die tomorrow, she would not have made a big enough mark on the world.So Jo made herself a promise: if she survived, she would dedicate the rest of her life to doing good. Just eleven months after brain surgery, Scamp & Dude was born, a clothing brand with purpose stitched into its heart. Today Scamp & Dude turns over £16 million a year, has donated 4.5 million products to charitable causes, and given more than 95,000 scarves to women starting chemotherapy. For her work Jo was awarded an OBE for services to fashion and charity.In this business episode, Andy Coulson explores how Jo turned a life-threatening crisis into a moment of opportunity, and what it really takes to build a brand where purpose, family and commercial success pull in the same direction.POWERED BY KINGSLEY NAPLEYI know what it is to have the right legal support around you when facing crisis.

Jo lined up five clients and £25,000 a month in fees before she resigned from Estée Lauder. De-risk the jump before you make it.Build the business around the life you actually want. Jo walked away from a £5m agency because it cost her time with her kids. Scamp & Dude was designed the opposite way – with her family built into it. Success isn't just the turnover; it's whether the business gives you the life you wanted.Purpose is the engine that keeps you going when it gets hard. For Jo it's charity; for you it might be something else entirely – but find the reason you're really doing it, because that's what stops you quitting.Awareness can be worth more than margin. Know which parts of your business are there to make money and which are there to build the brand, and don't confuse the two.CHAPTERS07:04 – Why a great job still wasn't enough08:50 – How to de-risk backing yourself before you jump10:11 – Walking away from a £5m business to get her life back10:24 – Stress and the warning she ignored13:54 – Choosing one last Christmas before brain surgery15:30 – Waking up alive, and the promise made in a hospital bed19:42 – Hospital bed to product in eleven months24:34 – The Super Scarf mission, and 95,000 women starting chemo26:54 – How to turn your hardest moment into your superpowerREAD MORE ABOUT THE SUPER SCARF MISSIONhttps://scampanddude.com/pages/superscarvesmissionFOLLOW JOInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/scampanddudejo/?hl=enFOLLOW SCAMP & DUDEInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/scampanddude/?hl=enFOLLOW CRISIS WHAT CRISIS?Instagram – www.instagram.com/crisiswhatcrisispodcast TikTok – www.tiktok.com/@crisispodThis was a Crisis What Crisis Production – Rex Fisher (producer), Ioana Barbu (studio manager), Fred Sharp (research), Johnny Seifert (audio), Jasper Cullen (video)

Sometimes the road intended is not always the one traveled. On a cold, rainy Southern morning, a boy is born with a bent back to a young, God-fearing mother in a world already in chaos. The doctor tells her to prepare for the worst. She names him anyway. Chance Beginnings is the true story of a Savannah boy shaped by faith, family, and the unrelenting tides of time. It is a memoir about resilience and overcoming tragedy, a book about finding God through pain and suffering, and a true story of redemption and spiritual healing that has resonated with readers in trauma recovery communities, men's groups, and faith-based reading circles across the country.

How did a favourite of Elizabeth I go from royal darling to executed traitor?Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Dr. Alex Gajda and Dr. Will Tosh to explore the meteoric rise and catastrophic fall of Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex, one of the most glamorous yet volatile figures in Elizabethan England.

West Ham are in the Championship, Millwall are back on the fixture list, and the Docker's Derby ended 2-2. Historian and lifelong Hammers fan Max Portman joins the show to ask whether relegation can be liberation, just as it was for 1860 Munich. He argues the club spent forty years chasing commercial success while the East End that produced it dispersed into Essex. What remains is the idea of a community strong enough to pull people back on Saturdays. That tension runs through everything we discuss: a relegation that feels oddly like relief now that David Sullivan is gone, a London Stadium that never feels quite real, and a crest that tells everyone what they already know. It even shapes a Millwall derby whose hatred Max dates to a 1972 testimonial. Along the way: Bobby Moore drinking in his grandparents' pub, why football is one of the last places where we still have to argue with people we disagree with - and FootyCon 2027.LINKS:Max Portman on LinkedIn, BlueskySports in History podcastNEW: send me a text message!

In this episode of Roots and All, I chat with ecology consultant Johnnie Johnson about his journey into the natural world, his detailed multi-visit garden surveys, and the incredible discoveries he makes in unexpected places. From tracking scarce insects to working with prominent public spaces like the Horniman Museum and John Little's garden, Johnnie Johnson shares how anyone can boost wildlife by embracing structural complexity and natural variation. Benny's Insect of the Week: The Southern Green Shieldbug What You'll Learn: How garden biodiversity audits work, spanning multiple visits across the spring and summer seasons. Why urban gardens serve as crucial ecological stepping stones for wildlife in an increasingly paved-over landscape. The importance of starting at the bottom of the food chain by focusing on native plants and structural micro-habitats. Practical, low-cost ways to invite wildlife in—from small water sources and log piles to areas of bare ground and varied vegetation heights. The Reality of Ecology Consulting and Garden Surveys Johnnie Johnson shares how he transitioned into ecology later in life, moving from the planning side of the profession—which deals heavily with development and mitigation—into hands-on garden surveys that actually focus on finding and celebrating life. He discusses his detailed reports, which often span 80 to 100 pages and combine scientific data with custom artwork and portraits of notable insects found on site. Why Gardens Matter More Than You Think Reflecting on his survey work across Essex, Suffolk, and London, Johnnie Johnson highlights that private and public gardens often possess a remarkable variety of micro-habitats. Because traditional rural landscapes can sometimes be impoverished, these green spaces act as vital urban refuges. He also touches on his baseline surveys at the Horniman Museum, tracking how strategic changes to cutting regimes over several years can drastically improve species richness. Practical Principles for Gardeners and Designers When translating ecological data into day-to-day garden care, Johnnie Johnson emphasizes simplicity over rigid science: Embrace structural diversity: Incorporate varied plant heights, log piles, soil patches, and a water source to instantly boost habitat value. Champion native species: Move toward utilizing native plants to support a fully functioning local food web. Collaborate with designers: Bridge the gap between rigorous ecology and aesthetic design so that native-heavy planting schemes look and feel fantastic in a domestic setting.

In this episode, Dr. Miranda Melcher continues her conversation with Skylar Thompson, Deputy Director, and Jennifer Connet, Legal Advisor, at Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRA). They discuss how HRA documents human rights violations inside Iran, preserves evidence, and protects victims, witnesses, and sources in a high-risk environment.The conversation explores HRA's extensive network inside Iran, including its relationships with people across the country and inside prisons. Skylar explains how information is verified and corroborated, then analysed to identify patterns, responsible institutions and individuals, and broader systems of repression. She also discusses the security considerations involved in deciding what can safely be published.Finally, Skylar and Jennifer share advice for people interested in human rights work: remain curious, humble and open to learning, build relationships with people you respect, and recognise that careers often develop in unexpected ways.

The police investigation surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has continued to broaden as Thames Valley Police pursue allegations tied to his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and his conduct while serving as a senior royal. Andrew was arrested in February 2026 on suspicion of misconduct in public office, and investigators have since appealed directly for witnesses and potential victims to come forward with information involving alleged sexual misconduct, corruption, fraud or the improper sharing of confidential information. Police have described the inquiry as unprecedented and have made clear that they are prepared to examine allegations beyond the narrow circumstances that originally triggered the investigation.The widening investigation has unfolded alongside a broader wave of Epstein-related police activity in Britain following the release of millions of additional documents in the United States. Other police forces, including Surrey and Essex, have opened or reviewed separate Epstein-related allegations, while Thames Valley Police continue examining Andrew's conduct and connections. Months after his arrest, the investigation remained active, with reports indicating that detectives were still working through evidence and that a conclusion might not come for some time. What began as scrutiny of Andrew's ties to Epstein has therefore developed into a much larger police inquiry examining whether those relationships intersected with potential criminal misconduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

For a few Tuesday evenings on a row I had noticed that bingo was being played in the Church Hall near St.Andrew's. So I waited until the following week, took a stroll down the road and sat on the wall outside with my recorder. What a lovely moment on a warm summer evening. The moon was shining brightly on the way back.

The rebellion is over in three weeks. Wat Tyler is dead, the charters are revoked, John Ball is executed, and by every measure that historians usually use, the Peasants' Revolt failed completely. Except that the tax that started it was never levied again in the same way for a hundred and thirty two years. The next general poll tax in England comes in 1513, under Henry VIII, and even then the government moved carefully. For four generations, the memory of 1381 sat in the room every time Parliament talked about taxing ordinary people. In this final part of the series we go to Smithfield on the 15th of June, 1381, and work out what actually happened between Wat Tyler and the fourteen year old king. Then we follow Richard II to Waltham, where the chronicler Thomas Walsingham puts a speech in his mouth that is quoted in almost every book on the revolt, and which one of the best modern historians of 1381 thinks was made up. We go through the reprisals in Essex, Hertfordshire and Norfolk, and then we ask the question the whole series has been building toward. They lost. Did they also win? Serfdom in England is not abolished by an act of Parliament. It drains away. And in 1574, Elizabeth I signs a commission to free the last serfs on the crown estates, which tells you both that villeinage had almost disappeared and that it had not quite.

There are few bands in the modern alternative rock landscape that can genuinely claim to have completely rewritten the rulebook, but Essex powerhouses Nothing But Thieves are definately one of them. From their explosive self-titled debut right through to the sprawling, neon-soaked conceptual masterpiece that was Dead Club City, these boys have consistently refused to play it safe. They have spent over a decade blending indie sensibilities, electronic pulses, and massive, stadium-sized rock riffs into a cocktail that is uniquely, undeniably theirs. But nothing—and I mean absolutely nothing—could have prepared the rock world for the fierce sonic beast that is their brand-new studio album, Stray Dogs.When the advance tracks for this record first landed in my inbox, I did what any self-respecting rock fan would do. I locked myself in the studio, cranked the speakers until the walls started to vibrate, and just let the music completely wash over me. Stray Dogs is a completely different animal for the band. It is darker, grittier, and carries a raw, visceral bite that feels like a massive nod to their heaviest rock roots while simultaneously rocketing headfirst into uncharted territory. It is the chaotic sound of a band entirely comfortable in their own skin, yet completely unwilling to sit still or compromise their artistic vision. The basslines groove deeper into your chest, the guitars cut through the air like a buzzsaw, and the overarching atmospheric tension keeps you on the absolute edge of your seat from the opening note to the dying embers of the final track.At the center of this musical storm is frontman Conor Mason, and if you have ever heard this man sing live, you already know he possesses one of the most versatile, jaw-dropping vocal ranges in rock music today. He can transition seamlessly from a haunting, delicate falsetto that will break your heart into a ferocious, soaring roar that can tear the roof off an arena. On Stray Dogs, Conor pushes his vocal instrument harder and further than ever before. He channels a raw desperation and a fierce, uninhibited intensity that perfectly matches the album's thematic undercurrents of isolation, survival, and finding your pack in a fractured world.With the anticipation for this album reaching a fever pitch globally—and particularly here in Australia, where we have adopted the boys as our own—I recently had the pleasure of sitting down for a proper yarn with Conor to dig deep into the belly of this new record. We spoke about the intense creative grind that birthed these new tracks, the heavy sonic experimentation that took place behind closed doors, and how the band managed to capture such an explosive energy in the studio this time around. Conor is one of the most down-to-earth, genuinely passionate blokes in the business, and his insight into the blood, sweat, and tears that went into this release is nothing short of sensational.So, turn the volume up, get yourself a cold drink, and settle in. Here is HEAVY's chat with the brilliant Conor Mason of Nothing But Thieves, talking all things Stray Dogs and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

In two weeks in June 1381, English peasants drove a Chief Justice out of Essex, took Rochester Castle, walked into Canterbury Cathedral, camped outside London, burned the richest palace in the country, and then walked into the Tower of London and beheaded the Archbishop of Canterbury. And a fourteen-year-old king rode out to meet them and said yes to everything they asked for. This is Part 3 of my series on the Peasants' Revolt, told day by day, from Brentwood on 30 May to the night of 14 June with the rebels holding London. We cover Wat Tyler, who has no history at all before that month, John Ball's sermon at Blackheath, the manor court rolls they burned everywhere they went, the Flemish weavers murdered in the streets, and Johanna Ferrour, the woman the court records name as a leader of the attack on the Tower. ▶️ Part 1: https://youtu.be/bl5z1blEY-Y | Part 2: https://youtu.be/AT5AWrkIBVE

Was the Steelers offensive line as bad as everyone is saying? Pro Football Focus thinks Dylan Cook is the team's best player through 2 games. Now, that's silly. Does the Steelers development with their linemen make any sense? Nobody within the team felt like moving players all over the place would backfire. When will either rookie get a look if others on the OL continue to struggle? Former Steeler Trai Essex joined the show. Trai doesn't believe the offensive line played well at all on Sunday, despite what the folks at Pro Football Focus claim. Trai did defend Dylan Cook, saying he did play well outside of the viral play that looked like a football folly. Trai said Spencer Anderson was easily the worst guy up front. Trai doesn't understand the slow start for Troy Fautanu because he clearly has the tools to be great. He said Fautanu doesn't look sure of himself and is thinking too much when he's out there. Trai thought the unit was playing really well at the end of last season before they ran into the Texans in the playoffs. Did Mike McCarthy make a mistake by not playing the offensive line much together during the preseason? Trai isn't overreacting to Zach Frazier having a down game because he views Frazier as a Top 5-7 center in the game today. Trai thinks the Steelers need to look at the options behind Anderson at RG, with both Gennings Dunker and Brock Hoffman. Trai said Dunker has a lot of potential and compared him to Ramon Foster. Trai is excited for the next 2 Northwestern football games – Indiana and Penn State. Can TJ Watt work over Amarius Mims on Sunday? Trai said the Steelers don't have anything to hang their hat on offensively and they should get the football to Jaylen Warren as much as possible. Ray thinks the offensive line looks worse because of Aaron Rodgers and his overall lack of mobility. PM Team Draft – Best Steelers OLs ever (must pick 1 from each position).

Episode 153 – The Canine Regulation Project with Nina Fotara   In this episode, holistic dog trainer, Nina Fotara, and I have such a cool conversation about Nina's new venture – The Canine Regulation Project! We dive into questions such as what "Regulation" means to both of us, how we use the concept in our work, and what it means for both the pets and the caregivers we work with.   As the conversation progresses, we delve deeper into philosophical aspects of working in the Pet Behaviour sector and share how we can broaden our toolkits by considering canine- and human regulation as an important part of our treatment -and care plans!   I really hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I enjoyed recording it, and if you'd like to learn more about Nina and her work, please read on! Nina Fotara KCAI (WG) is the multi-award-winning Holistic Gundog Specialist™, a trainer and behaviourist at Confident Canine® in Essex, a business built around nervous-system-led work with both gundogs and their guardians. Her tagline, balancing both ends of the lead, captures her approach: working with a dog's nervous system and the energetics its guardian brings, rather than just the behaviour on the surface. Nina is also the founder of the Canine Regulation Project, including the annual Canine Regulation Day on 14 September and the creator of the Holistic Dog® Deck.

A plan for Windsor to expropriate 45 west-end homes will go before a land tribunal, the OPP cite an Essex man for speeding on an e-bike, and Environment Canada says fall will begin cooler than normal. All the noon headlines on the go.

In this episode we suggest a couple of places to visit, some RHS partner gardens are open. Prebooking may be required so check with the gardens first. There is the Guided Swiss Garden Tour near Biggleswade and the Arley Arboretum and Gardens in Arley.Hozelock have launched a new range of tools with handles that can be changed to be longer or shorter to suit your preference and task at hand, the range cover hand tools and larger digging tools with a new spade which is meant to be an improvement on the traditional design. They have also have redesigned the hose connector and have hopefully fixed the more common issues, so it now has a lock on it, the hose grip has been reversed so it should be better at stopping the hose blowing off and the likely hood of leaks has been reduced. With these improvements Hozelock have once again innovated and improved a classic part so hopefully we will waste less water from dripping hoses and have less issues with them blowing off.It's giant vegetable time, at the Malvern show on Friday the 25th to Sunday the 27th September. Gladys the Atlantic Giant pumpkin which weighs about 540kg is hopefully going to make it there from where it grew in Essex.A new Apple has been discovered in Luton. It is a cross between the James Grieve and a Newton Wonder. It's Apple Day the weekend of 26th , 27th September at the Garden Centre, with fantastic displays of Apples, Support from Mid Shires Orchards and Jerry Edwards. If you have an apple that you don't know what variety it is bring it for Jerry and he will hopefully identify it for you. We also chat about No Dig, and whether we can leave vegetable roots in the ground to rot down and whether double digging is now a thing of the past. Bill recommends pruning and tidying up your roses to stop wind rock from the winter winds. If you are going to plant any bare rooted plants this winter it's time to get out and prepare the ground.

Ethan Bamber's 60 wickets this season is having a major impact on Warwickshire's Rothesay County Championship title drive. Bamber's 6-26 routed Essex and sent the Bears to the top of the table. The Bears now lead Somerset by 11 points with one round of matches to go. Bamber, from an acting family, moved from Middlesex in 2025 and discusses the advantages of playing at Edgbaston rather than Lord's, how he has learnt to accept the plaudits for his consistent wicket-taking and how he would really like to be Allan Donald for. a day. He also nominates his ace-snaffler second slip Rob Yates as the Rothesay Safe Hands award winner. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This week Richard takes us out of the kitchen garden and allotment and over to Audley End House in Essex for the Gardeners' World Autumn Fair — the final show of the year and a perfect chance to gather fresh inspiration as we head into autumn. Victorian Walled Gardens & Orchard Training Richard begins his visit in the Victorian kitchen gardens, admiring productive orchard beds, fan‑trained fruit trees and beautifully maintained glasshouses. Apples, pears, asparagus and late‑season veg are thriving despite the challenging summer, and the structure of the garden reinforces that his own move toward a more formal, kitchen‑garden layout at home is the right direction. Make a Metre Matter: Lucy Chamberlain's Autumn Garden Richard then meets up with Lucy Chamberlain to explore the final instalment of her Make a Metre Matter project — nine themed square metres designed to show what can be achieved in small spaces. Highlights include: Wildlife habitats for autumn and winter, using windfall apples, moss, bamboo canes and log piles Woodland ecology, with bracket fungi and chestnut stumps supporting stag beetle larvae Heat‑loving edibles like tomatoes, aubergines, chillies and basil to extend the harvest Edible flowers and vertical veg for colour and productivity A feature wormery, proving composting can be attractive as well as practical Heat‑tolerant crops such as curly kale and Malabar spinach Hardy winter salads including chicory, radicchio and mizuna Leaf mould demonstrations showing the stages of decomposition A metre dedicated to winter casserole ingredients — beetroot, carrots, kale, potatoes and swede The garden offers practical, achievable ideas for changing climates and small spaces, and gives Richard plenty of inspiration for his own plot. Recipe of the Week Back in the kitchen, Richard shares a warming aubergine and tomato gratin with a crispy potato topping — a perfect way to use up late‑summer veg before autumn fully settles in. Show Highlights & Heading Home A wander around the stalls reveals end‑of‑season bargains and familiar exhibitors. Richard picks up a few gifts and a robin‑on‑a‑spade ornament before heading home, feeling motivated to make the most of warm soil now and shift into infrastructure work as winter approaches.

The Backwoods Cryptid Road Trip rolls into New York and follows the western shore of Lake Champlain, home to one of America's oldest and most enduring lake-monster legends.Across the water, Vermont may have the famous photograph, but Port Henry, New York has spent generations embracing Champ. A hand-painted sightings board records reports dating back more than two centuries, a highway sign welcomes visitors to the "Home of Champ," and every August the town celebrates a creature no one has ever managed to catch. The journey begins on the lake with strange encounters reported from a Port Henry dock, Crown Point, Westport, the Valcour channel, and the ferry landing at Essex. From there, Brian digs into the history behind the legend—from Indigenous traditions and Samuel de Champlain's often-misquoted 1609 account to Captain Crum's enormous creature, the famous 1873 sightings, P. T. Barnum's reward, Sheriff Nathan Mooney's report, and the controversial 1977 Sandra Mansi photograph.The episode also follows researcher Joseph Zarzynski's decades of investigation, the unusual laws passed by New York and Vermont to protect Champ, mass sightings, sonar contacts, recordings, and videos that have kept the mystery alive into the modern era.Then the road turns south to Whitehall, New York, where a series of dramatic August 1976 sightings involving local residents and police became one of the most famous Bigfoot cases in the state.From there, the trip pushes into the Adirondacks, the hills around Fort Ann, Allegany State Park, the Catskills, and the Tug Hill Plateau for frightening Sasquatch encounters involving hunters, hikers, fishermen, loggers, and families who found themselves face-to-face with something they never expected to see in the New York wilderness.Lake monsters, Bigfoot, and more than two centuries of unexplained encounters—this stop on the Backwoods Cryptid Road Trip belongs to New York.Have a sighting of your own?

On Easter Sunday, April 9, 2023, 21-year-old Ellie Baxter went to check on her parents at their home on Mersea Island, off the Essex coast, 64-year-old Carole Baxter and 61-year-old Stephen Baxter.
