As British Prime Ministerial hopeful Andy Burnham is sworn in as a Member of Parliament, we ask one of his supporters in the government when she decided Keir Starmer should go. Also in the programme: Former Chairman of the US Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan dies aged 100; and we hear about the "ballista spider" that sets an elasticated trap is discovered in the Australian rainforest.Photo: Andy Burnham is sworn in as a Member of Parliament in London, UK.

Andy Burnham has been sworn in as an MP after Sir Keir Starmer announced his resignation. We hear from one Labour MP who thinks there should be an election for the next party leader and prime minister, and one who supports a coronation.Also in the programme: 40 years on from Diego Maradona's 'Hand of God' goal at the 1986 football World Cup, we talk to one of those who was in the stadium. And as the Met Office warns that temperatures could reach 40C in parts of the UK this week, should people consider buying air conditioners? And, if so, what type?
Serena Williams will be back at Wimbledon playing singles for the first time since 2022!At 44 years old, she played some really good tennis with Mboko before the Canadian injured her knee at Queens. This decision to come back and even play singles at the most well-known tennis tournament in the world is intriguing: what does she want to get from this?While it's practically impossible to see Serena winning Wimbledon, especially after her last win coming seven years ago, plus her age, I still can't complain. She will be back, she will be roaring, involved and full of energy in a way only Serena Williams can be.I hope for at least one win. It will be EPIC.I also talk a bit about how so many promising young women are making good progress on the grass this year, notably Berlin champion Linda Noskova, Berlin semi-finalist (l. Noskova) Alex Eala, and 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu. All players with very different styles, different career trajectories, but with great potential to make the next 10-15 years at the WTA be really awesome and competitive.Favourite this podcast if you like our work :)SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel!Follow TENNIS AND BAGELS!Twitter/X: https://x.com/TennisAndBAGELSAndre:Twitter/X - https://x.com/RolembergAndreBlueSky Social: https://bsky.app/profile/andrerolemberg.bsky.socialVansh: https://x.com/vanshv2kOwen (BlueSky Social): https://bsky.app/profile/owensports.bsky.socialSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels.

No one has had a greater influence on New South Wales rugby league than Brad Fittler. A Blues legend, Freddy played a record 31 State of Origin matches for NSW before later coaching his state on 18 occasions. But the Origin story closest to his heart came in 2004, when Phil Gould convinced him to return from representative retirement for one final campaign. It wasn't all smooth sailing. The comeback didn't start as planned, but it ended with one of the most memorable fairytale finishes in Origin history. In this episode of Stories of Origin, Brad Fittler relives the 2004 series, his final season in the Sky Blue jersey, the unforgettable decider, and the perfect send-off alongside Phil Gould. A farewell that remains one of the great moments in Origin history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was convinced Alexander Zverev would never win a grand slam title. I was proven wrong - but he needed mighty help from the tennis gods to make it happen. I have questions about whether this will translate into more success or if things will remain more or less the same.(If you want to skip the DV case discussion part, I talk exclusively about tennis from 16:32 until the end.)But, before the tennis, there's the awkward, sad situation of the DV allegations. He was cleared via settlement, which indicates neither guilt nor innocence, but he's effectively not charged with anything and has no record (as far as I understand.) But that doesn't mean the ATP should just call it a day on that: the lack of policies, or even any sort of acknowledgement of the serious problem of domestic abuse is simply disappointing. It's not about Zverev, but about a sustainable, robust standard in place to protect victims and hold their contractors, stars and moneymakers to a level of integrity that needs to be even higher than for doping cases.Once that's out of the way, I talk about where my attention will be directed in terms of Zverev's next matches, which I believe will give a definitive answer as to whether Roland Garros was a one-in-a-life-time chance for him, or if this win can unlock a new mentality for the German.Spoiler alert: I don't think anything will change, and he will continue losing to Alcaraz, Sinner, and whoever else will come up in the future that will become the next big thing.But, for better or for worse, Alexander Zverev is a Grand Slam champion.Favourite this podcast if you like our work :)SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel!Follow TENNIS AND BAGELS!Twitter/X: https://x.com/TennisAndBAGELSAndre:Twitter/X - https://x.com/RolembergAndreBlueSky Social: https://bsky.app/profile/andrerolemberg.bsky.socialVansh: https://x.com/vanshv2kOwen (BlueSky Social): https://bsky.app/profile/owensports.bsky.socialSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels.

Eng v NZ Daily 2026, 2nd Test, Oval, Day 2: Glenn Phillips, seemingly the cricketer that everyone loves, finally scaled the mountain to score his maiden Test century.

England's batters fought hard, but are they getting enough from their experienced stars? And does Joe Root even want to be captain? Ben Jones joins Daniel Norcross.

Meghan Chard is many things at once — principal dentist, practice owner, mum of three, and quietly passionate evangelist for childhood airway health. In this episode, she sits down with Payman for a wide-ranging conversation that takes in meeting her husband Simon at dental school, buying his family's Leicestershire practice a month before their first child arrived, and the very particular chaos of juggling clinical work, business ownership, and family life. Then there's the airway thread — and once Meghan gets going, you can see why she's hooked. Sleep disordered breathing in children is, she argues, a dramatically underscreened problem, and dentists are uniquely placed to spot it.In This Episode00:00:55 — Introductions and Rothley Lodge00:02:30 — Meeting Simon at King's00:05:10 — Life as associates, then buying the practice00:06:05 — Running the practice: ops vs. direction00:08:25 — The dental family advantage00:12:45 — Learning the numbers — and how Pärla helped00:13:00 — Staff management and the art of delegation00:15:30 — Superpowers and self-awareness00:17:35 — The juggle: three kids, two clinical days, one nanny00:20:00 — Something has to give00:26:10 — Mary McAleese, Belfast, and family roots00:30:05 — Childhood airway obstruction: signs, symptoms and the dentist's role00:40:05 — Treatment: referral, palatal expansion and the habit-corrector appliance00:54:10 — Case studies and outcomes00:58:35 — Pärla: the emotional roller coaster of consumer business01:05:35 — Covid and the darkest days of practice ownership01:08:20 — Dental school, inferiority, and graduating second in the year01:16:30 — Blackbox thinking01:26:25 — Faith, spirituality, and community01:30:50 — Succession planning01:35:10 — How Meghan ended up in dentistry01:39:15 — Best lecture: Malcolm Levinkind on teeth, posture and the body01:41:50 — Favourite resources: Breath, Breathe Sleep Thrive, Saved by the Mouth01:42:45 — Sauna obsession and longevity habits01:43:55 — Fantasy dinner party01:45:40 — What she'd do differentlyAbout Meghan ChardMeghan Chard is a principal dentist and co-owner of Rothley Lodge Dental Practice in Leicestershire, which she and her husband Simon Chard took over from his family in 2018.

From recording Theme Park Trader at Halloween Horror Nights , to seeing Hogwarts for the first time, staying at Hard Rock Hotel, stepping into Seuss Landing, and revisiting classics like Jaws, Spider-Man and The Hulk, this episode is packed with nostalgia. We also chat about the excitement of hearing Universal could be coming to the UK, the build-up to Epic Universe, and the Universal moments that have stuck with us the most over the years.
In this episode of the ZenRUN Podcast, I chat with the lovely Rachael Johnstone - mum of three, hairdresser, backyard ultra runner, sister-in-law and best friend of Nagiska, and someone who somehow manages to fit 80-100km of running into a very full life. Rach grew up in Koo Wee Rup as one of four kids, in a busy household full of sport, family, chaos, and noise. As a kid, she loved being active - netball, swimming, cross country, athletics, hockey, t-ball - basically all the things. But like so many teenage girls, sport slowly faded into the background when friends, social life, and fitting in became more important. After leaving school at the end of Year 11, Rach became a hairdresser and spent around 20 years at the same salon - including some very long commutes, early starts, and years on her feet. But this conversation is about much more than running. Rach speaks openly about becoming a young mum, meeting her husband Pete, going through IVF, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancies, grief, family life, giving up alcohol, and eventually finding running in a way that completely changed her life. Her running started small - 1.5km to 3km in the morning before work, just around the well-lit streets near home. She didn't necessarily love the running part at first, but she loved how she felt afterwards. Then, when her daughter Jada was six weeks old, Rach found a $20 running pram on Marketplace - and that little bargain pram helped launch a whole new chapter. From there, running grew. A few kilometres became a half marathon with the pram on a random Wednesday. Then came bigger adventures, backyard ultras, trail races, 50Ks, Two Bays, Wild Dog Backyard Ultra, Tarawera, Melbourne Frontyard Ultra, and now a focus on GV Backyard Ultra. What I loved most about this chat is how normal and real Rach makes it all sound. She doesn't pretend she has endless free time. She doesn't wait for the perfect moment. She runs early, late, around kids, around work, around dinner, around life. Sometimes she gets 10km. Sometimes she gets 1km. But she keeps showing up. And for Rach, running is not just fitness. It's thinking time. It's processing time. It's self-care. It's discipline. It's a way to be a better mum, wife, friend, and human. We talk about: growing up sporty, then drifting away from sport as a teenager becoming a hairdresser and working long days on her feet becoming a young mum IVF, miscarriage, grief, and healing giving up alcohol and choosing a different life for her family starting running with tiny morning runs the legendary $20 running pram running her first half marathon with the pram why she often runs alone fitting running around three kids, work, and family life communicating with her husband Pete so they both get time to run why she runs every day when she can - even if it's only 1km backyard ultras and why she loves the format learning from podcasts while running strength training, injury prevention, and respecting recovery showing her kids what is possible why mums need to stop seeing self-care as selfish her love of the ultra-running community why she doesn't need to compete with anyone else - she just wants to see what she can do Tips from Rach Rach shared some beautifully simple advice for runners, especially busy parents: 1. Start small You don't need to start with big distances. Rach started with 1.5km to 3km before work. Small runs still count. 2. Make it easy to get out the door One of the reasons running worked for Rach was because she didn't have to drive anywhere. She could roll out of bed, put her shoes on, and go. 3. Use what you have A $20 running pram helped Rach build consistency when Jada was tiny. You don't need everything to be perfect - you just need something that helps you start. 4. Communicate with your partner Rach and Pete talk the night before about what each of them needs for their run the next day. It's simple, but it means they can support each other instead of clashing. 5. Be flexible If you planned 10km but only have time for 5km, do the 5km. Don't throw the whole run away just because it can't be perfect. 6. Make running a non-negotiable Rach's point was simple - time doesn't magically appear. You need to decide that your run matters and make space for it. 7. Get creative with kids Kids can ride bikes while you run, play at the oval while you run laps, or join in where they can. It won't always look perfect, but it can work. 8. One kilometre can be enough Rach has a 1km block she can run when life is busy. It's not about fitness every time - sometimes it's about taking five minutes for yourself. 9. Strength matters Rach admits she would always choose running over strength, but trail running and backyard ultras have shown her how important strength work is. 10. Self-care is not selfish This was one of the biggest themes of the episode. Rach believes running has made her more “selfish” in the best possible way - because taking care of herself helps her show up better everywhere else. Favourite idea from the episode You don't need more hours in the day to become a runner. You need to decide that your wellbeing matters enough to take a small slice of the day back for yourself. Sometimes that's a long run. Sometimes that's a backyard ultra. And sometimes it's one kilometre around the block. It all counts.

This week on Mum's The Word, Georgia Jones sits down with award-winning broadcaster and Relatively host Catherine Carr to talk about the relationship we rarely know how to talk about: the one with our siblings. Her debut book, Who's The Favourite?, busts the myths and shares the science behind the brothers and sisters we love and occasionally want to throttle.Why might siblings be the longest relationship of your life?Why is no child ever born into the same family?And why do labels like the golden child, the funny one or the baby follow us into adulthood?Catherine and Georgia get into birth order, the truth about only children, whether firstborns really are cleverer, sibling rivalry, and the stat that 74% of parents admit to having a favourite.Plus the beautiful idea that reframes it all: that family isn't a hierarchy, it's a constellation.Find out more: Listen to Catherine's podcast RELATIVELY Get the book WHO'S THE FAVOURITE?

WTA Weekly – Queen's Club Review & Berlin/Nottingham Preview Welcome to WTA Weekly. This week, the grass-court season delivered one of its best stories as Donna Vekic completed a remarkable run to win the Queen's Club title in London. Entering the tournament as a lucky loser after falling in qualifying, Vekic took full advantage of her second chance and capped the week with a 6-0, 7-6(6) victory over home favourite Emma Raducanu in the final. Vekic dominated the opening set before Raducanu fought back impressively in the second. The Brit recovered from a difficult start, built a lead, and even held set points, but Vekic's experience on grass proved decisive in a tense tiebreak. The Croatian eventually converted her fifth championship point to secure her first title in several years. Despite the loss, Raducanu leaves Queen's with plenty of positives. After an injury- and illness-disrupted season, she reached the final without dropping a set before Sunday and recorded victories over multiple top players. Her form suggests she could be a dangerous contender during the remainder of the grass swing and at Wimbledon. As for Vekic, the title continues a remarkable turnaround. She only entered the main draw after a late withdrawal created a lucky-loser spot, yet she navigated the field brilliantly and now heads into Wimbledon full of confidence. Looking ahead, attention shifts to the WTA 500 event in Berlin, one of the strongest grass-court tournaments outside Wimbledon. The field is expected to feature many of the tour's top players, making it a crucial test before the Championships. Meanwhile, the WTA event in Nottingham offers another opportunity for players to gain valuable grass-court matches and ranking points. With Wimbledon just around the corner, every match becomes increasingly important as players fine-tune their games for the year's biggest grass-court event. That's all for this week's WTA Weekly. The road to Wimbledon is heating up, and after Vekic's incredible lucky-loser triumph at Queen's, the grass season has already shown that anything can happen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailRemoving gluten can feel overwhelming at first, particularly when so much of our food culture revolves around bread, pasta, cereals, and convenience foods. Yet one of the biggest lessons I've learnt after more than a decade of being gluten-free is that success isn't about finding perfect gluten-free replacements for everything you used to eat.It's about discovering new foods that you genuinely enjoy.In this episode, I share five of my favourite gluten-free swaps that I use regularly in my own kitchen and recommend to clients. From courgetti and buckwheat to quinoa porridge and tamari, these simple alternatives can help you build a more varied, nutrient-dense diet without feeling restricted or deprived.We also explore why some people don't tolerate oats as well as expected, where hidden sources of gluten can sneak into your diet, and why focusing on what you can add often makes dietary changes far more sustainable than focusing on what you're removing.Whether you're newly gluten-free, supporting an autoimmune condition, or simply looking for fresh meal ideas, this episode is packed with practical inspiration.In this episode, we discuss:Why gluten-free living doesn't have to feel restrictiveThe mindset shift that makes dietary changes easier to maintainCourgetti as an alternative to traditional pastaWhy tamari and coconut aminos are useful gluten-free staplesQuinoa porridge and chia pudding as alternatives to oatsThe nutritional benefits of buckwheatNori wraps and lettuce wraps as alternatives to sandwichesHidden sources of gluten that many people overlookHow to build a naturally gluten-free diet using whole foods

FANCY YOURSELF A CELEB EXPERT? Take The Spill's Pop Culture Quiz here.There's a brand-new young adult romance that's completely binge-worthy, and if you've been rewatching The Summer I Turned Pretty and Off Campus, this is your next obsession. It's set in a picturesque lakeside town with impossibly attractive brothers, and characters navigating first love, secrets, and the kind of emotional complexity that makes you want to keep pressing play at 2am.Plus, a darkly comic slasher that's an absolute masterpiece has just hit streaming services. Jason Segel and Samara Weaving have come out with one of the best screams in the business, playing a married couple whose relationship has deteriorated so badly that they've each independently decided to kill each other on a romantic getaway. It's hilarious, chaotic, properly gory, and proof that sometimes watching a relationship implode in the most absurd, violent way possible is the funniest thing you'll see all week.

Mirra Andreeva caps off an amazing clay season with the biggest clay title possible at Roland Garros. At only 19 years old!If the season before clay wasn't filled with her best moments, Andreeva came back with fire for the clay, winning 22 of 25 matches, and lifting her first major title. While she was pretty much expected to achieve all there is to achieve in tennis, maybe this title at Grand Slam level might have surprised even the best analysts. I personally think this came way sooner than I thought it would, even though I did pick her to win the tournament during our Draw Previews episode.Now, at No.1 in the Race, she has a tangible chance at getting to the top of the rankings, becoming World No.1 for real. But the road ahead won't be easy.The WTA Core Four: Swiatek's episode: https://shows.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels/episodes/iga-swiatek-lost-at-roland-garros-there-are-positivesI have opinions on the performances of the WTA Core Four, meaning Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff. It ranges from "it's fine, it happens," to "this could trigger the end of her peak."In particular, Sabalenka had possibly the worst result, even if she's gotten the furthest in the tournament. Losing 10 games in a row when you're serving for the match is an epic meltdown. It's the kind of historic achievement you just don't want in your resume, especially as World No.1 when all your biggest rivals are already out of the tournament.Favourite this podcast if you like our work :)SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel!Follow TENNIS AND BAGELS!Twitter/X: https://x.com/TennisAndBAGELSAndre:Twitter/X - https://x.com/RolembergAndreBlueSky Social: https://bsky.app/profile/andrerolemberg.bsky.socialVansh: https://x.com/vanshv2kOwen (BlueSky Social): https://bsky.app/profile/owensports.bsky.socialSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels.

Expect plenty of Disney Parks nostalgia, a few ridiculous stories, and probably far too much sentimentality as we celebrate the moments that made us fall in love with the parks in the first place.

Keep honking, piggies: I'm listening to whatever rockslop the algorithm just sicked up for me!So we've been circling a certain topic for a while now – in order to be fashionably off-cycle rather than just late to the party, of course – and we've finally done enough muck-raking to present you with our red-hot take.It's verifiable: your favourite DJ is a psyop.We jest, mildly. But why is it so satisfying to point to popular things and call them a psyop? And it's not just Geese, the perfectly solid rock band that launched a thousand hysterical thinkpieces. Angine de Poitrine? Évidemment. Rita Ora? Innit. But what about the current numerical titans of dance music? Your Josh Bakers, Kettamas, Silva Bumpas and, of course, your Freds Again? What does it take to reach the premier league in the age of algorithm?In this episode we break down the tectonic shifts underway in the game of selling yourself, and how video clips, vlogging, ‘content seeding' and engineered virality are becoming standard promo tools from the mainstream to the underground.

"This isn't rejection. This is growth."Losing a client you love hurts in a way nobody warns you about. Not the random inquiry that ghosts you, but those early families. The ones who gave you a chance when you were still figuring out manual mode, cheered you on, brought you their babies, and told everyone how wonderful you were. And then one day you're scrolling, and there they are, tagged in someone else's sneak peek.In this episode, I'm talking about that gut punch and why it feels so personal, even when it isn't. I'm sharing the perspective shift that saved me and why the clients who move on aren't proof that your best wasn't good enough. They're proof you've grown past where you started.By the end of this one, you'll see those early families differently. Not as people who left, but as the ones who helped build the foundation you're standing on right now.What's in this episode: [00:01:00] Those early clients who believed in you from the beginning [00:01:30] The stomach drop of seeing them tagged in someone else's feed [00:02:00] Why it feels like rejection and not just a lost booking [00:02:30] The first time it happened to me, and what I felt [00:03:00] The hard truth about who we start with and who we grow with[00:04:30] The perspective shift that changed everything [00:06:30] The moment I clicked through the photos like I was inspecting evidence [00:07:00] How to see those families as proof of growth, not failureIf you've ever had a favourite client show up in another photographer's feed and felt that sting deep in your chest, this episode is going to feel like exactly what you needed to hear.For full show notes, resources, links and to download the transcript, visit our website: https://themilkyway.ca/podcast/

A recent hospital visit means there is no new episode this week, but it reminded me of this classic from early 2024! Tune in to find out more How difficult was life in the Middle Ages? This is something archaeologists and historians have debated for decades. In recent years, new techniques, including genetic analysis, have given us new insights into the lives of our distant ancestors in the Medieval Era. Their findings are unsettling. Life in the Middle Ages was far more difficult than we imagine.My guest in this episode is Prof. Eileen Murphy from Queen's University Belfast. Eileen has recently published groundbreaking research on daily life in early medieval Ireland, based on her analysis of human remains excavated in Co. Roscommon. In this podcast, she answers all your questions on what life was like.Eileen shares her discoveries on how people survived in a hard and difficult world. It's not for the faint of heart.This episode is not suitable for children.Our interview is based on the book "The Forgotten Cemetery: Excavations at Ranelagh, Co. Roscommon," available for free at https://www.tii.ie/technical-services/archaeology/publications/tii-heritage/.Eileen is the deputy head of the School of Built & Natural Heritage at Queen's University Belfast: https://www.qub.ac.uk/schools/NBE/.Sound by Kate Dunlea Hosted on Acast.
