La capitale écossaise et ses décors médiévaux ont inspiré J.K. Rowling pour la saga Harry Potter. Destination de vacances prisée par les fans, Édimbourg regorge de marches guidées et de magasins dédiés à l'univers du sorcier à lunettes. Mais depuis quelques années, l'autrice désormais milliardaire a mis sa fortune au service de l'idéologie transphobe, au point de contraindre la justice à revenir sur les droits des femmes transgenres. Le secteur du tourisme se voit forcé de s'adapter, entre demande commerciale et respect des minorités. De notre correspondante à Londres, Le château millénaire d'Édimbourg se découpe sur le ciel gris d'Écosse, à quelques centaines de mètres du cimetière de Greyfriars. Connu pour sa statue du chien Bobby, l'endroit accueille chaque année un demi-million de touristes vêtus de capes noires et d'écharpes en laine aux couleurs des maisons de l'école (fictive) de sorcellerie de Poudlard. Les pierres tombales portent des noms familiers pour les fans de la saga littéraire Harry Potter : Thomas Riddell, Scrymgeour, Moodie, McGonagall... Plusieurs fois par semaine, Christine dirige des marches guidées à travers le cimetière. « La popularité de ces tours m'étonne toujours, après toutes ces années, s'émerveille la jeune femme, vêtue d'un uniforme de velours noir et vert émeraude. Édimbourg ressemble tellement à Poudlard, c'est merveilleux pour se plonger dans l'univers de Harry Potter ! » Parmi les participants, beaucoup ont grandi avec les livres. Le montant des marches Potter Trails est libre. Et depuis quelques années, l'entreprise reverse une partie de ses profits à des ONG qui défendent les droits des personnes transgenres. « C'est une manière d'afficher clairement que nos marches accueillent tout le monde, sans distinction de genre », explique Christine. Ce qui pourrait sembler évident relève pourtant du nécessaire. Depuis quelques années, la créatrice de l'univers Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling, s'est distinguée sur les réseaux sociaux par ses positions conservatrices transphobes. Plus inquiétant, elle, à qui la marque Harry Potter rapporte chaque année plus de 50 millions de dollars, a financé le recours en justice d'une association écossaise contre des réformes. En avril dernier, elle a obtenu que la justice considère les femmes transgenres comme des hommes. Depuis, les fans s'interrogent : faut-il continuer à consommer du contenu, et donc verser de l'argent à une autrice dont l'idéologie est loin de faire consensus ? « La moralité des livres est complexe, et bien entendu loin d'être idéale, admet la guide. Mais de nombreux lecteurs, y compris ceux qui ont grandi avec Harry Potter, ont trouvé du réconfort dans le message de la série : le fait de se sentir différent et d'enfin trouver un endroit où on se sent bien, et la résistance contre la haine. C'est ce qui nous motive. » L'une des rues principales de la vieille ville d'Édimbourg, Victoria Street, possède un café qui a abrité les premières séances d'écriture de J.K. Rowling et lui aurait servi d'inspiration pour la rue commerçante des fournitures magiques, le Chemin de Traverse. Devant la boutique officielle, les fans font la queue pour acheter une baguette magique, une peluche, une écharpe. Après une demi-heure d'attente, Estelle sort du magasin, les mains vides : « J'aime relire les livres, revisionner les films... Mais je ne cautionne pas les propos de l'autrice et je ne veux plus lui verser d'argent. » Alors, la jeune Normande, vêtue d'un pull de la maison Serdaigle, s'adapte : « J'achète d'occasion, et je me suis mise au tricot pour fabriquer mon pull ! » Du côté des militants LGBTQ+, certains membres de la communauté appellent plutôt au boycott de tout ce qui touche à l'univers magique du sorcier à la cicatrice en éclair. Les associations, elles, préfèrent ne pas évoquer les positions de l'autrice pour ne pas participer à sa visibilité. Dans cette démarche, Fraser Horn a décidé de totalement repenser son offre de marches guidées dans Édimbourg. Ce jeune papa s'est lancé comme guide indépendant au début de l'année, et propose à l'époque des tours Harry Potter et des marches LGBTQ, sur les lieux importants dans l'histoire des minorités sexuelles. « Mais en avril [quand la Cour suprême a indiqué ne plus reconnaître le genre auto-déclaré], les positions de J.K. Rowling sont devenues indéfendables, et j'ai compris que ces deux marches n'avaient plus leur place sur le même flyer », explique-t-il. À l'approche du mois des Fiertés – le mois de juin, consacré à la visibilité de la communauté LGBTQ+ –, le guide décide de remplacer ses tours Harry Potter par de nouveaux horaires pour ses marches LGBTQ+, ce qui suscite un fort intérêt médiatique. « Certains ont pensé que c'était un coup de communication de ma part, mais j'ai tout de même lâché un tiers de mon activité, pour respecter mes valeurs », précise-t-il. Depuis, Fraser propose de manière permanente plus de marches LGBTQ+, où il en profite pour donner plus de visibilité aux personnalités homosexuelles et transgenres de l'histoire édimbourgeoise, celles-là même que J.K. Rowling cherche à effacer. « J'emmène mes groupes dans la cour du collège de médecine, pour leur montrer la plaque commémorative du Dr. James Barry : un homme transgenre, né dans une famille pauvre, qui est devenu l'un des meilleurs chirurgiens de la Royal Navy », raconte-t-il. La transidentité du docteur n'a été révélée qu'à sa mort, à l'indifférence de ceux qui l'avaient connu. Du côté du secteur touristique et à l'échelle de toute l'Écosse, les syndicats notent une légère baisse du tourisme liée à Harry Potter, au profit d'autres séries comme Outlander, mais se préparent à une recrudescence des séjours sur les lieux de tournage des films, avec la sortie d'une nouvelle série inspirée des livres sur HBO en 2027.

What if sharing a car and knocking on doors as a student became the launch pad for a six‑figure business? In today's conversation, Steve welcomes Eric Fraser — once a rookie branch manager with the YEAA program (via Student Painters) and now the founder of PitStop Mobile Oil Change. Eric drops the story of how he and his brother shared one vehicle, hustled through logistics and cold‑calling, and eventually scaled a mobile oil‑change business to nearly $750K in revenue. They explore the mindset of radical responsibility, the value of early accountability, and how hard‑earned habits from a summer business translate into both corporate and entrepreneurial success. Listen now to avoid staying stuck in "what‐if" mode, gain a unique blueprint you won't read in textbooks, and commit to the kind of execution that turns ideas into action. Timestamped Highlights [00:01:15] – The ROTC‑to‑entrepreneur pivot: Why physics major Eric chose the summer business route [00:03:45] – How Eric and his brother ran one car, shared gas funds and built their first branch manager launch [00:08:45] – Why having "just one car" forced discipline, marketing, and accountability [00:14:51] – The journey from $60K in sales his first year to managing and mentoring a team [00:17:16] – The mobile oil change business idea: from Jiffy Lube job to fleet contract with 500‑700 oil changes/month [00:22:17] – Cold‐calling Avis/Budget fleet accounts: the prompt and process behind the break‑through deal [00:28:15] – The three big takeaways: start messy, delegate for leverage, radical responsibility wins [00:43:33] – What's next: "Messy growth year" 2025 and goal to build a ~$1M‑sale business in 3‑5 years About the Guest Eric Fraser is the founder of PitStop Mobile Oil Change, a growing mobile fleet and retail vehicle maintenance service with locations in Columbus, OH and San Diego, CA. A former branch manager with Student Painters/YEAA, Eric leveraged early leadership and sales experience to transition into data analytics and consulting roles (including at Booz Allen Hamilton and Intuit's QuickBooks division) before returning to scale his own business. His blend of operational discipline, sales grit and leadership mindset offers a rare blueprint for students, corporate professionals and entrepreneurs alike.

John is joined by Kae Tempest and Fraser T. Smith to discuss how they wrote and recorded the album “Self-Titled”. Kae Tempest is an English recording artist and author. He began his career performing at open mic nights around London, quickly gaining a reputation for his powerful lyrical performances blending rap and spoken word poetry. Between 2008 and 2012 he toured internationally with his band Sound of Rum, launching a solo career with debut album ‘Everybody Down' in 2014. It and second album ‘Let Them Eat Chaos', released in 2015, were both nominated for the Mercury Prize. Kae has since released three further solo albums, including BRIT Award-nominated ‘The Line Is A Curve'. Kae is widely recognised as one of the UK alternative scene's most essential voices, acclaimed for his exceptional lyricism and acute social commentary. Both are particularly evident on his fifth studio album, ‘Self Titled', released earlier this year. ‘Self-Titled' is Kae's first collaboration with multi-award winning UK producer, songwriter and musician Fraser T. Smith. The trio sit down at Fraser's studio, Utopia, where the album was written and recorded, to discuss developing creative harmony working together for the first time, the process of building a song using ProTools, the influence of drum textures and bass sounds on the record, how one creative choice can completely change the direction of a track and much more.

In this horrific start to Halloween 2025, Stuart and Jacob embark on a thrilling adventure through the sands of time as they compare the original 1932 classic "The Mummy" with its 1999 blockbuster remake. They dig deep into the lackluster atmosphere of the early Universal monster film, featuring Boris Karloff's iconic performance, and contrast it with the action-packed Fraser romp that quickly became quite the sensation. What elements of horror and charm persist in both of these? How do the characters and their motivations differ across the decades? And just why does Jacob find 1999 a bit too... busy?Also featured in this episode are discussions on "Hollow Knight: Silksong", the charm of Universal's monster movies, when exactly it's time to trim the character fat, and a ranking of these classic monsters.

We also include passages from Damien's book Life After Death and the book Jason Baldwin helped write with Mara Leverit, Devil's Knot. We end this episode with a confession from Jesse Misskelley and the arrests of Damien Echols and Jason Baldwin.There's so much to unpack in this episode and this case!Sources:Jenkins, P (1992).

Grab your your old cassette tapes, and your deepest sense of injustice, because today we're getting a broader understanding of the 1993 West Memphis Murders and the three little boys who never made it home.On May 5th, 1993, three second graders- Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers left their homes in West Memphis, Arkansas for an ordinary bike ride. They were eight years old. They never came back.What happened that night would become one of the most infamous child murder cases in American history.In 1994, three teenagers- Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley would be convicted of those murders, in a trial driven by satanic panic, coerced confessions, and a complete collapse of justice.In 1996, HBO aired Paradise Lost and the world saw what had happened in that courtroom.

We sit down with author and farmer Aleya Fraser to trace the living thread of Caribbean herbalism as she details in her new book Caribbean Herbalism: Traditional Wisdom and Modern Herbal Healing. Together, we unpack the tension between modern convenience and disappearing habitats, and we get practical about what to do next: how to identify plants safely, why relationship matters more than hype, and where citizen science can meet peer-reviewed research without losing soul. We talk creolization—the way Indigenous, African, European, and South Asian traditions fused into today's remedies—and why names matter, from “guinea hen weed” to Latin binomials that help us translate across islands. If you're in the diaspora or on the islands, you'll find clear steps to reconnect: sit with elders, join a local farm or foraging group, support growers protecting habitats, and keep a simple log of what teas and tinctures do for your body. This conversation opens a another gate into herbal practices that are accessible, rigorous, and deeply Caribbean—where story and science enrich each other and wellness returns to the commons.

In this week's episode we discuss the SNP conference which has been something of a triumph for John Swinney. His position on independence was accepted and he made a pretty bouncy closing speech. But what if next May the elections have a result that the combination of independence parties exceeds the 65-seat majority when the SNP alone does not? In this conference episode we also look at the energy policy that was discussed. Is it time to have a really bold policy as Tommy Sheppard and the SNP Trade UInion Group proposed. That is to set up local heat companies, which is something that can be done now under the powers of devolution.  Since nobody's arguing against this will it actually happen? We look at the walk-in GP centers idea. Fraser has had some actual experience this weekend of the provision down south in England, and we talk about much else besides.

HEADLINE: China's Economic Contradictions: Deflation and Consumer Wariness Undermine GDP Growth ClaimsGUEST NAME: Fraser Howie SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Fraser Howie about China facing severe economic contradictions despite high World Bank forecasts. Deflation remains rampant with frequently negative CPI and PPI figures. Consumer wariness and high youth unemployment at one in seven persist throughout the economy. The GDP growth figure is viewed as untrustworthy, manufactured through debt in a command economy. Decreased container ship arrivals point to limited actual growth, exacerbated by higher US tariffs. Economic reforms appear unlikely as centralization under Xi Jinping continues.

Britain's Cold War story is bigger than you ever knew.In this explosive episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill sits down with historian and author Fraser McCallum to uncover the often-overlooked story of Cold War Britain. Too often reduced to a superpower showdown between the United States and the Soviet Union, the Cold War was a global conflict — and Britain was absolutely central to it.Fraser, author of Cold War Britain: 50 Years in the Shadow of the Bomb, reveals how the Cold War reshaped the UK — from British intelligence and its notorious spy scandals to the rise of protest movements like CND and the Greenham Common protests. He shows how Britain's nuclear ambitions, NATO involvement, and cultural life all intertwined with a conflict that defined half a century.You'll discover:Why Britain's role in the Cold War was far greater than most people realiseHow the UK was vital to the creation of NATO and the success of the Berlin AirliftThe devastating truth behind British nuclear weapons testing and its human costHow British intelligence in the Cold War was rocked by class privilege and spy scandals such as the Cambridge FiveThe way Cold War protests like Aldermaston and Greenham Common shaped politics and public debateHow the Cold War left its mark on British culture, television, music, and everyday lifeWhy the Cold War's legacy still influences British politics and society todayFrom the NHS scaling back services to fund the bomb to Margaret Thatcher turning “Iron Lady” into her personal brand, this episode reveals the Cold War as a British story — one of espionage, nuclear strategy, protest, and pop culture.If you've ever thought of the Cold War as a distant standoff between Washington and Moscow, Fraser McCallum will change your mind. The story of Cold War Britain is one of courage, compromise, scandal, and survival — and it still shapes our world today.

From a babysitter spinning New Found Glory records in South Florida to sharing stages with Simple Plan and State Champs, Jonathon Fraser—better known as Northbound—has crafted a story of indie grit, pop-punk spirit, and relentless drive. In this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky sit down with Jonathon to trace his journey from anxious high schooler in Fort Lauderdale's DIY scene to full-time solo artist in Los Angeles. Jonathon opens up about the early days: burning CDs of bedroom-recorded singles, DIY touring in borrowed vans as a teenager, and navigating the uncertainty of going solo when his bandmates chose college over the road. He details how a chance with Animal Style Records sparked his transition from acoustic storytelling to fully-formed band recordings, eventually leading to his latest chapter with Smart Punk Records. You'll hear about the reality of surviving the industry—touring hardships, financial risks of “making it,” and the drive to simply live comfortably through music. Plus, Jonathon shares candid reflections on moving to LA, staying ambitious after the pandemic derailed big plans, and the lessons he's picked up along the way. Whether you're an aspiring artist or just love hearing the real stories behind the music, this episode is packed with hard-earned wisdom and the kind of authenticity you can only find on Bringin' It Backwards.
