The Mitfords continue to fascinate us, thanks to the witty novels, biographies and letters they wrote, their political involvement on both left and right, and their brush with world history. Rarely a year goes by without another Mitford documentary, film or television series, a volume of letters or a biography. In our latest podcast our emphasis moves from the girls to their mother – matriarch of one of the most outrageous, controversial, influential, glamorous and intriguing families of the twentieth century.Sydney Redesdale (née Bowles), known by her family as ‘Muv', was never going to have a conventional life. Her mother died when she was 7, and from the age of 14 she ran her father's house. She fell in love with David Mitford (later Lord Redesdale) as a teenager and they married in 1904. Of their seven children, Nancy, Pamela, Tom, Diana, Jessica, Unity and Debo, two became bestselling authors, one was imprisoned and two lost their lives as a result of the Second World War, and their political views ranged from fascism to communism.Sydney was the original Mitford girl, from whom much of her daughters' legendary strong will, self-confidence and extremism was born. Nancy's satires of aristocratic life between the wars, The Pursuit of Love and Love in a Cold Climate, portray Sydney as Aunt Sadie, vague and rather disconnected, but in fact Sydney was a divisive character and her daughters squabbled about the nature of the ‘real Muv' for even longer than they argued about their own political differences.Our guests on this podcast are two modern Mitfordians, Rachel Trethewey, biographer,  historian and author of Muv: The Story of the Mitford Girls' Mother, and Frances Donnelly, broadcaster, writer and contributor to Slightly Foxed. Alongside discussion of Sydney and the difficulties of writing about someone with whom you disagree and find hard to like at times, the guests and our editors choose their favourite Mitford titles.Summer reading recommendations include R. C. Sheriff's The Fortnight in September and Anne Tyler's Three Days in June.

A 33 year old defence worker with a $1.1 million net worth, $365k in super, and $5,000 a fortnight going into investments. All on a $125k salary. The comment section had one big question: how? Tash and Ana crack open this Finance File, walk through the numbers line by line, and take on the debates it sparked. In this episode we'll discuss:

Two great personal documentarians grace the podcast: Ross McElwee (“Sherman’s March”) and Michel Negroponte (“I’m Dangerous With Love”). Long friends and colleagues, Ross and Michel come on to primarily discuss the sensitive subject matter behind Ross’ latest film, “Remake” The film begins a theatrical engagement at Film Forum in NYC on 7/10/2026. They are currently screening a 40th anniversary 4K restored print of his seminal “Sherman’s March”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5Vph7D_TxY The death of his son causes McElwee, an autobiographical filmmaker, to look back on his life's work. He eventually turns to his archive of home movies — an afternoon trapping crayfish with his son Adrian, age 4; helping with homework, age 11; discussing career plans with his son, age 24. To what extent did his camera affect their relationship when Adrian was alive? To what extent does it define that relationship now that he is gone? Meanwhile, an effort to adapt McElwee's first feature, “Sherman's March”, into a work of fiction lurches along, giving the filmmaker another perspective from which to meditate on movie making and mortality. Ross McElwee is a documentary filmmaker from Charlotte, North Carolina currently living in Cambridge, Massachusetts. McElwee has made ten feature-length films. “Sherman's March” won Best Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival and was chosen for preservation by the U.S Library of Congress National Film Registry in 2000 as a “historically significant American motion picture.” Bright Leaves premiered at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival's Directors' Fortnight. McElwee’s In Paraguay premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2008, and he returned to Venice in 2011 to premiere Photographic Memory. McElwee has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the American Film Institute. He has twice been awarded fellowships in filmmaking by the National Endowment for the Arts and production grants from the LEF foundation. McElwee received the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival's Career Award in 2007 and the Pennebaker Award for his career in 2023. In 2024, the French Ministry of Culture awarded McElwee the rank of Chevalier des Artes et des Lettres. McElwee was Professor of the Practice of Filmmaking in the Department of Art, Film and Visual Studies at Harvard beginning in 2003 until his retirement in 2024. He is now a Research Professor, Emeritus in the AFVS Department. About Michel Negroponte Michel Negroponte is an award winning filmmaker who has been making feature length documentaries for more than 30 years. He was born and raised in New York City, and studied filmmaking with Richard Leacock and Ed Pincus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the 1970s. In addition to making his own films, he has freelanced on countless films for HBO, PBS, the BBC, and Channel Four. He has also worked with independent filmmakers like Ross McElwee, Doug Block, Lisa Crafts, D.A. Pennebaker, Chris Hegedus, Christine Choy, Dick Rogers, John Marshall and Al Maysles. His films include SPACE COAST (1979), RESIDENT EXILE (1981), SILVER VALLEY (1984), JUPITER’S WIFE (1994), NO ACCIDENT (1996), W.I.S.O.R. (2000), METHADONIA (2005) and I’M DANGEROUS WITH LOVE (2009). JUPITER’S WIFE, a portrait of a beguiling homeless woman named Maggie, won a Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival and the prize for Best Feature Documentary at the Vancouver and the Santa Barbara Film Festivals. The film was also awarded an Emmy for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Documentary. Originally shot on small format video, it premiered on HBO/Cinemax before getting a nationwide 35mm theatrical release. Edward Guthmann of the San Francisco Chronicle called it one of the ten best films of the year. John Koch of the Boston Globe wrote, “Negroponte has a painter’s eye and a novelist’s reach; and if there is anything more engaging and satisfying than “Jupiter’s Wife” on television or at the movies these days, by all means tell me about it.” Negroponte’s films have been broadcast in the United States on PBS, HBO, and the Sundance Channel as well as in England, France, Germany, Spain, and Japan. His work has been shown at the Sundance Film Festival, The New York Film Festival, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and in festivals in Berlin, Rotterdam, Vancouver, and Japan. Negroponte has also taught in the graduate and undergraduate film programs at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and Temple University. Recently, he helped create a new graduate program in documentary filmmaking at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, which opened in September, 2009. He is part of the faculty there as well.

St.Thomas More and St. John Fisher are names we recognize but do we fully understand what they did and how we are still doing what they stood against? How did Henry VIII and Bloody Mary affect the course of history? As they both showed, defending the Faith and the gifts God gives us, such as marriage and the Church, is something worth dying for. Hear Fr. Chris Alar tell their amazing story.

In this week's episode, we got to chat with Adrian Chiarella, writer and director of the Australian supernatural horror film Leviticus, hitting theaters this Friday, June 19. Adrian is an award-winning filmmaker who gained acclaim with Dwarf Planet and his television work, and Leviticus marks his feature directorial debut. We dove into Adrian's background as an editor and how that has shaped his perspective and work now as a director. Adrian also shared how, as a queer teenager, he turned to horror films and connected with their themes of otherness and identity, and how those influences ultimately found their way into Leviticus. He shared his experience casting and working with the film's  actors, one of whom appeared in Talk to Me, and how they built their chemistry both on and off set (apparently playing Fortnight together works great.) We also talked A Nightmare on Elm Street, Frank Ocean, and Cure. It was a fascinating conversation with plenty of behind-the-scenes stories along the way. You don't want to miss this great chat about an exciting new horror film that's about to hit theaters, sooo … COME HANG OUT!!!

Series 2. Episode 3: Hasan Hadi on The President's Cake.   In this episode, we speak with award-winning director Hasan Hadi about his debut feature film, The President's Cake. We discuss how Hasan brought 1990s Iraq to life, the impact of casting non-professional actors and the film's potential to put Iraqi cinema in the spotlight. An emotional film with a universal message, The President's Cake is an important piece of art that tells an Iraqi story without the influence of Western preconceptions about the country's people and past. Premiering in the Director's Fortnight section of the Cannes Film Festival in 2025, The President's Cake won the Audience Award and the Camera d'Or prize for best debut feature. It was also shortlisted for an Oscar after being selected as Iraq's entry in the Best International Feature category at the 2025 Academy Awards.    The President's Cake is available to rent now on Curzon at Home.    Hosted by Sarah Agha  Produced by Hemeroscope Studios Music by Mina Samy

Premiering in the Directors' Fortnight section at the Cannes Film Festival, "I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning" is Clio Barnard's adaptation of Keiran Goddard's acclaimed novel about five childhood friends from working-class Birmingham whose lives have drifted far from the futures they once imagined. "Peaky Blinders" actor Joe Cole stars as Rian – the one who escaped, made money and seemingly "made it", only to discover that success cannot free him from the place he came from.

Early summer has truly arrived, and with it comes one of my favourite celebrations in the gardening calendar—Tomato Fortnight. As I shared in this week's Veg Grower Podcast, the allotment and kitchen garden are bursting with activity, from staking tomatoes to sowing French beans, harvesting peas, and even spotting new life on my citrus tree. Tomato Fortnight: Why I Grow So Many Varieties Down on the allotment, the heat has been intense, but the tomatoes are thriving. I grow around eight different varieties, each chosen for a specific purpose—beefsteaks for sandwiches, salad tomatoes for everyday use, cherries for hanging baskets, and plum tomatoes for passata. As I said in the episode: “There are so many different varieties, hundreds and hundreds of varieties… that is why I grow so many different varieties of tomatoes.” Between home and the allotment, that adds up to around 30 plants—and honestly, I could still grow more. Greenhouse vs. Outdoor Tomatoes Greenhouse tomatoes crop earlier but lack the depth of flavour of outdoor-grown fruit. Outdoors, I rely on blight‑resistant varieties like Crimson Crush and Crimson Blush to help avoid devastation from late‑season blight. “Any tomatoes growing outside, unless they are blight resistant, are susceptible… it can literally rot your crop within a week.” Watering & Feeding Consistent watering is key to avoiding split fruit and blossom end rot. I mulch heavily with straw to lock in moisture and feed weekly with seaweed until flowering, then switch to tomato feed. Sweetcorn, Squash & Straw Bale Growing The allotment beds are now fully planted. Sweetcorn has gone in as a block, not rows, to ensure good wind pollination. Squash and courgettes are thriving in the straw bales, settling in nicely after the recent cold snap. Interestingly, my maincrop potatoes have overtaken the first earlies due to that cold spell: “The cold snap… just set those first earlies back a little bit.” Catching Rainwater in a Dry Year Back home, I've been racing to put out buckets and containers ahead of the forecast rain. “It has been a very dry year so far… I want to catch as much rainwater as I can.” With 16 water butts running low, every drop counts. Seed of the Month: French Beans June's seed of the month is one of my absolute favourites—French climbing beans. They're fast, productive, and perfect for filling gaps as spring crops finish. Sowing is simple: Sow direct 2 cm deep or Start in modules for quick germination (7–14 days) Beans aren't hungry plants, but they do need something to climb. I use hazel-stick frames, drilling holes with a soil auger to get the sticks firmly into the ground. “They simply curl their way up around the stick… I find it fascinating.” I also grow Borlotto for both fresh pods and dried beans—beautiful, versatile, and easy to store. Kitchen Harvests & Courgette Fritters Harvests are rolling in: lettuce, radish, spring onions, peas, strawberries, raspberries, and the first courgettes of the year. To celebrate the courgette glut, this week's recipe is Early Summer Courgette & Mint Fritters with Lemon Yoghurt—crisp, fresh, and perfect for lunch. “These fritters are crisp on the outside, soft in the middle… lifted beautifully by fresh mint.” Bee Update: A Calm, Growing Colony My weekly apiary visit brought brilliant news: “The bees have incredibly settled in… we're now up to eight frames of bees.” Even better—I finally spotted the queen. Supers will be going on soon, meaning honey isn't far away. Book of the Month: Home Brewing by Kevin Forbes May's unexpected Book of the Month was Home Brewing by Kevin Forbes. With elderflowers in full swing, I used it to make cordial and even started elderflower wine. “This book made it sound very, very easy.” For June, I'll be diving into The Victorian Kitchen Garden by Jennifer Davies.

In this episode, we're back — and it gets worse. We're brutally ranking every Taylor Swift music video from the "new testament" era: Lover through The Life of a Showgirl. After spending last episode celebrating the visuals that defined her career, it's time to confront the ones that didn't. From the cosy-but-forgettable to the genuinely embarrassing, we rank them all — worst to best — and we don't hold back.Cardigan vs. Anti-Hero. Bejeweled vs. Fortnight vs The Fate of Ophelia and Opalite. The highs, the lows, and the ones we've collectively agreed to forget.Did Taylor Swift lose the plot visually? We discuss.

The salient theme of this podcast episode is the intricate and deeply personal exploration of navigating a chronic illness, specifically through the lens of Bill Risser's experience with colon cancer treatment during 2012 and 2013. We delve into the emotional and physical toll of chemotherapy, emphasizing the stark contrast between societal awareness months and the ongoing, often isolating reality faced by patients once the public spotlight diminishes. The discussion highlights the psychological mechanisms employed by individuals, such as cognitive reframing, to cope with their circumstances—illustrated here by Risser's humorous moniker for his chemotherapy pump. Furthermore, we examine the profound shift in perspective that arises from witnessing the struggles of others in similar situations, underscoring the importance of empathy and the need for continual recognition of those enduring long-term health challenges. Ultimately, this episode serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring nature of illness and the necessity for society to remain engaged with the realities faced by patients beyond the confines of designated awareness periods.Takeaways:This episode provides an insightful exploration into the psychological complexities of chronic illness experiences.The discussion emphasizes how public awareness campaigns often overlook the ongoing struggles faced by patients after designated awareness months.Bill Risser's journey illustrates the profound effects of chemotherapy on both physical and mental health, highlighting the challenges of recovery.The podcast reveals the importance of perspective, as patients navigate their own battles while recognizing the struggles of others in similar situations.Listeners are encouraged to engage meaningfully with those undergoing long-term health challenges, acknowledging their realities beyond standard awareness periods.The narrative underscores the necessity of maintaining one's identity amidst illness, showcasing how social interactions can provide resilience and hope.Links referenced in this episode:ratethispodcast.com/resessions

It's a real good news, bad news situation for Fiorentina of late. The bad news is that the team, after briefly showing a pulse, has nosedived again, losing 3 straight games while shedding all that previous progress. The good news? At least the transfer window's closed so these bozos can't hurt themselves anymore. Your three favorite Fiorentina podcast idiots are back to discuss all that and more. We start out with a quick run through the Big Dog of the Fortnight, Bonehead of the Fortnight, and a thing we learned. You know, beyond the Viola's general haplessness. We then turned our attention to the mercato, picking out the good, the bad, and the truly inexplicable; if you want a hint, think of the Gatorade High School Player of the Year. Once we'd bummed ourselves out enough reviewing the transfer business, we finished up with a look at the Relegation Percent-o-meter, which provided a surprisingly optimistic forecast. Along the way, we got one well-dressed man who really believes that he's a well dressed man, some more sub-par barking, and a particularly tortured bird joke that never quite got off the ground.
