In this episode host Iain Ballantyne talks to guest Steve Kershaw, a former Royal Navy submarine officer, about his amazing career under the sea and his work today helping to bring about the UK'S ‘Hybrid Navy' transformation.Iain kicks off by asking Steve to explain what led him to choose a naval career in the mid-1980s and why it was the engineering side of the Senior Service that appealed most.After talking about his time undergoing Initial Sea Training and being ‘streamed' to the Submarine Service as an engineer, Steve relates how for a short period he returned to the Surface Fleet. He spent time in HMS London, including a foray to Berlin as the infamous Wall dividing East and West came down in late 1989.Steve served in several Royal Navy nuclear-powered hunter killer submarines (SSNs) of the Trafalgar Class, including during the 1991 Gulf War. That boat spent 13 weeks dived in the Mediterranean watching Libya to ensure it did not come into the conflict on the side of Saddam Hussein.Steve also went to sea in the Upholder Class diesel-electric submarine HMS Unicorn for a marathon voyage from the UK to the Indian Ocean and Gulf and back. He reveals to Iain how he found the ‘dirty boat' world aboard Unicorn to be somewhat different to the nukes.While away the UK Government decided to take the four (fairly new) Upholders out of commission, which was a blow. Steve reveals the impact that had on Unicorn's crew. A deployment involving Steve, which hit the headlines for the wrong reasons was that of HMS Tireless as part of Naval Task Group 2000, and which saw a circumnavigation of the world cancelled. The SSN was ‘trapped' in Gibraltar for a year due to serious technical problems and Steve returned home rather than going around the world.Among other things Iain and Steve discuss is his time with Naval Sea Trials Party 30 (NSTP 30) and its work to ensure RN submarine sensors remained on the cutting edge during a continuing contest under the sea.Steve and Iain also discuss how the ‘Hybrid Navy' aims to provide a solution to giving the British fleet of today and tomorrow more mass and presence at sea as part of the new Atlantic Bastion concept.*For more on navies and their activities worldwide, get the magazine!

Le 25 janvier 2026,  l'équipage de Sodebo Ultim 3 est entré dans l'histoire en s'emparant du Trophée Jules Verne en 40 jours, 10 heures et 45 minutes. Responsable de la navigation à bord, Benjamin Schwartz a été l'un des artisans de ce nouveau temps de référence. L'occasion de réécouter l'épisode d'Into the Wind consacré à ce marin au parcours atypique.-- C'est l'histoire d'un marin très recherché, qui enchaîne embarquements et coups d'éclat, mais n'a pas vraiment suivi les voies d'accès traditionnelles à la voile de compétition. Né à Lyon dans une famille où personne ne pratique le bateau, c'est grâce à... son prof de judo qu'il découvre la voile en Méditerranée. C'est là qu'il va progressivement faire son trou et se spécialiser dans l'électronique et la navigation sur des bateaux de propriétaires, de plus en plus gros, tout en suivant des études en géologie à Lyon.En 2014, il embarque sur l'ex VOR 70 SFS avec Lionel Péan, qui sillonne en course toute la Grande Bleue. Deux ans et demi plus tard, début 2017, il tente sa chance et candidate chez Dongfeng : il participe à la campagne victorieuse de Charles Caudrelier et des siens dans la Volvo Ocean Race, en charge, dans l'équipe technique, de l'électronique.Cette fois c'est le grand bain, il a été repéré et est appelé par Spindrift, tandis que l'équipe Dongfeng l'encourage à assumer ses envies de Figaro, lui qui n'a jamais couru en solitaire. Il se jette à l'eau en 2019 et le bizuth explose sur la Solitaire avec une 6e place et même, du jamais vu, un titre de champion de France élite de course au large.Désormais installé à Lorient, son téléphone sonne de plus en plus souvent : tout en enchaînant les stand-by et les tentatives de Trophée Jules Verne avec Spindrift, il gagne le championnat d'Europe mixte de course au large avec Marie Riou, est recruté pour The Ocean Race Europe sur Corum, puis navigue à bord d'Holcim-PRB sur The Ocean Race, où il finit skipper après l'affaire Escoffier.Fin 2023, il doit participer à la Transat Jacques Vabre avec Nicolas Troussel, mais le sponsor finit par renoncer après un démâtage sur le Défi Azimut. En 2024, il découvre le Class40 avec Fabien Delahaye (1er et 2e sur la Normandy Channel Race et Québec Saint-Malo) et le duo Alberto Riva-Jean Marre (2e sur la Niji 40). Il intègre le team Gitana pour cet hiver, avant que le maxi-trimaran Edmond de Rothschild ne démâte à Gibraltar. Le téléphone sonne quelques jours plus tard et l'équipage de Sodebo le récupère pour le Trophée Jules Verne.Pour la saison prochaine, il n'a rien de prévu, pour le moment.

En este nuevo capítulo de la Encuesta Absurda, Fernando Martín recibe a José, un amigo con una visión del humor tan personal como brillante. A lo largo de la sección, José transforma cada pregunta en un pequeño sketch improvisado que te hará disfrutar desde el primer segundo. Humor, espontaneidad y mucha frescura en un episodio imprescindible.

Atlantropa, c'est l'un des projets les plus vertigineux — et les plus inquiétants — jamais imaginés au XXᵉ siècle : faire baisser le niveau de la Méditerranée pour relier physiquement l'Europe et l'Afrique, tout en produisant une énergie gigantesque. Une utopie technologique, née dans l'entre-deux-guerres, à une époque où l'on croyait que l'ingénierie pouvait remodeler la planète.L'idée vient d'un architecte allemand : Hermann Sörgel. Dès la fin des années 1920, il propose un plan titanesque baptisé Atlantropa. Son principe est simple… sur le papier : construire un barrage colossal au détroit de Gibraltar. Comme l'eau de l'Atlantique n'alimenterait plus la Méditerranée librement, l'évaporation naturelle ferait progressivement baisser le niveau de la mer. Sörgel imagine une baisse d'environ 100 à 200 mètres, ce qui ferait émerger d'immenses terres nouvelles : des zones côtières actuelles deviendraient des plaines, et des ports comme Marseille, Barcelone ou Gênes se retrouveraient très loin du rivage.Mais Atlantropa ne se limitait pas à Gibraltar. Sörgel envisageait aussi un barrage aux Dardanelles pour contrôler la mer Noire, et un autre entre la Sicile et la Tunisie, afin de séparer et réguler les bassins méditerranéens. Il rêvait d'un réseau de chantiers pharaoniques, mobilisant des centaines de milliers d'ouvriers pendant des décennies.Pourquoi faire tout ça ? Officiellement, pour trois objectifs. D'abord, produire de l'énergie : le barrage de Gibraltar devait fonctionner comme une centrale hydroélectrique gigantesque, utilisant la différence de niveau entre l'Atlantique et la Méditerranée. Ensuite, créer des terres cultivables : les nouvelles surfaces émergées devaient servir à l'agriculture et à l'installation de populations européennes. Enfin, construire une paix durable : Sörgel imaginait qu'un continent euro-africain uni, autosuffisant en énergie, deviendrait stable et puissant.Mais derrière l'utopie, Atlantropa porte aussi une vision très problématique : celle d'une Europe dominatrice, qui “réorganise” l'Afrique comme un espace à exploiter et à aménager selon ses besoins. Le projet s'inscrit dans une logique coloniale : relier les continents… mais surtout mettre l'Afrique au service de l'Europe.Techniquement, Atlantropa était presque irréalisable. Les impacts auraient été immenses : bouleversement du climat, perturbation des écosystèmes marins, modification des courants, crise pour la pêche, déplacement des populations côtières, destruction de ports. Sans parler du risque géopolitique : qui contrôlerait Gibraltar ? Qui déciderait du niveau de la mer ?Atlantropa n'a jamais vu le jour. Mais il reste un symbole fascinant : celui d'une époque où certains pensaient que l'humanité pouvait “corriger” la géographie. Une folie grandiose… et un avertissement historique sur les limites du rêve technocratique. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

S3, Ep : 24. Paradores of Spain: Sleeping in History, Chasing the EclipseIn this new episode of Spanish Loops, we travel through one of Spain's most unique and quietly ambitious success stories: Paradores de Turismo. More than just a hotel chain, Paradores is a living idea: one born from the need to protect Spain's historical heritage while opening the country to travelers in a thoughtful, dignified way.The concept emerged in the early 20th century, when Spain realized that its castles, monasteries, palaces, and fortresses could have a second life. Instead of becoming ruins or museums frozen in time, they could welcome guests. The very first Parador opened in 1928 in the Sierra de Gredos, setting the tone for a model that blended hospitality, preservation, and national identity. From that moment on, sleeping in history became part of the journey.But Paradores are not just about beautiful rooms with thick stone walls and dramatic views. Over the decades, they have played a key role in boosting local economies, supporting rural areas, creating stable jobs, and protecting regional traditions. Their kitchens became ambassadors of local gastronomy,turning traditional recipes into something to be proud of, refined without losing their soul. Staying in a Parador often means tasting the region as much as seeing it.Today, Paradores stand as a symbol of Spain's public hospitality model: elegant, rooted in history, and deeply connected to place. They represent a national style of hostelry that many countries admire and few have managed to replicate. And in this episode, there is a big surprise.Jorge reveals a project he has been carefully developing for over a year: an extraordinary 2027 eclipse tour. During the longest total solar eclipse visible on Earth in the next 200 years, Ceuta (Spanish territory in Africa) will sit right at the center of the path of totality. We'll experience the eclipse fromthe Parador of Ceuta, with the rest of the journey unfolding in Southern Spain near Málaga and finishing in the historic city of Cádiz.It will be summer, but don't be fooled by the heat. We'll be by the water constantly and the Mediterranean and Atlantic breeze cools the temperature down. And yes, we'll cross the Strait of Gibraltar by helicopter. (There is an option B, just in case.)Seats are limited. If you want to be part of this once-in-a-lifetime experience, write directly to Jorge at travelingwithjorge.web@gmail.com and get on the list.History, travel, and the sky itself. This episode brings it all together!

Today I am re-releasing an episode I recorded in 2019 about Allan Grimson, a totally depraved excuse for a man who murdered at least two Royal Navy Sailors and it is speculated, up to as many as twenty others. The reason I have re-released this episode for you today, is because as you may have heard, the police announced last week that they have ended the investigation into the disappearance of Simon Parkes in Gibraltar - a man widely thought to have been another of Grimson's victims. I don't think this story is widely enough known and so wanted to release it again as a tribute to the two men who were killed by Grimson - Nicholas Wright and Sion Jenkins - and to raise awareness in the hope that Simon's devastated family and friends can finally discover what happened to him.

Hello and welcome to the 100th episode of Making Stitches Podcast. Way back in April of 2020 when I published my first ever Making Stitches Podcast episode, I had no idea that over 5 years later, I would be publishing episode 100! That blows my tiny mind!In the months leading up to this milestone, I had a couple of conversations with my lovely yarny friend, Christine Perry (aka Winwick Mum) and she suggested marking this podcast milestone with a different kind of episode - one with me as the guest.After much consideration, I took Christine up on her kind offer and let her turn the tables - asking me the questions instead. At the start of December, we had a lovely time having a long chat and recording this episode. Among the topics we covered were where I first learned to sew, knit and crochet, my career in journalism and how I got started in radio, our family's time in Gibraltar and how that led to starting my Postcard from Gibraltar blog back in 2015, making friends through the world of creativity, podcasting and blogging and, of course, 5 years of Making Stitches Podcast. I hope you enjoy listening!Huge thanks to Christine for being the host of Making Stitches Podcast this time!
