In this powerful and deeply moving episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we sit down with Indra, a Glasgow-based theatre maker, to explore the raw and unspoken reality of pregnancy loss at a young age. Indra shares her personal journey of grief, isolation, and ultimately, transformation through art. At just 13 weeks into an unplanned pregnancy, Indra experienced a silent miscarriage — a traumatic event made even more difficult by her youth, lack of romantic support, and societal stigma. In this candid conversation, she opens up about the lack of validation and support, particularly for young people navigating pregnancy loss outside of traditional family structures. We also discuss her new one-woman show, "Float", debuting at the Edinburgh Fringe as part of the Made in Scotland showcase. Using space metaphors and powerful storytelling, Indra reclaims her grief and invites the audience to see pregnancy loss through a new lens — one of love, maternal identity, and unspoken pain. What You'll Hear in This Episode: The experience of miscarriage at 13 weeks and how the medical system responded Why grief looks different when you're not in a long-term relationship How societal expectations invalidate the experiences of young mothers The emotional and administrative "grief load" no one talks about How Indra turned trauma into healing by writing a theatre show How the show “Float” explores grief through the metaphor of a failed space mission Navigating dating and future motherhood after loss Building a support system and the importance of grief communities About “Float”: Set against the backdrop of space exploration, Float tells the story of a failed mission and an invisible loss. With projection, storytelling, and poetic metaphors, Indra reclaims her experience of miscarriage and challenges societal narratives around what makes a mother.

In this globe-trotting episode of The Bourbon Road, hosts Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter are joined once again by Rob Carter, one-third of the “Maltmigos,” for a single malt tasting session that travels from the Himalayas to the Highlands. Though Amzie couldn't make the show this time, the malt trio powers forward from their tasting post at The Corner Rickhouse in Frankfort, Kentucky. The spotlight this episode is on Royal Tiger Single Malt, a double-cask expression from Ocean King Distillers in Goa, India. Distilled by Craig Enriques, this single malt is made from six-row Himalayan barley and aged first in new ex-bourbon casks before being re-casked for a second maturation. The result? A spirit layered with creamy vanilla, overripe pear, honey-drizzled bread, and a whisper of spice from the oak—delightfully balanced and surprisingly sweet for fans of traditional single malt. Jim, Todd, and Rob dig into the expression's structure, remarking on its buttercream and vanilla-laced nose, light body, and smooth, sweet finish. They note that while the whiskey skews a little sweeter than their usual fare, it offers a refreshing break from the bolder, high-proof bourbons they typically favor. For a $49 bottle, the consensus was unanimous: this Indian single malt punches well above its weight. Other expressions tasted during the show are Ice Cream from Glenmorangie, Loch Lemond and Glen Scotia. As they sip, the conversation ranges from distilling techniques to global whiskey culture. The team highlights India's rapidly growing single malt scene and how regional water sources, climate, and local grain are contributing to distinct profiles that rival the best from Scotland or the U.S. They also muse about the potential for single malt cream liqueurs and whether peated versions could offer a new kind of dessert dram. Beyond the glass, the hosts discuss upcoming barrel picks in western Kentucky, share travel plans to Fort Campbell and Clarksville, and reflect on the value of tasting outside your comfort zone. For Rob, this was a first-time single malt deep dive; for listeners, it's a lesson in palate exploration, regional nuance, and just plain good company. So whether you're a bourbon loyalist or a curious malthead, this episode is an open invitation to explore a world of flavor—no passport required.

This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie & Michelle look at vampires - and clowns - and murder…When Rockhampton teenager Tracey Wigginton became interested in the occult and witchcraft, no one could have predicted what would come next. Obsessed with idea of 'feeding on blood', over the next years Tracey began to explore drinking the blood of animals before eventually wanting to drink the blood of humans. What followed was a horror show. Dubbed the Australian Lesbian Vampire Killer, Tracey and her circle of friends abducted and murdered 47 year old Edward Baldock while Tracey drank his blood. Listen now to discover what happened to Tracey and her friends and why Tracey gives goths a bad name...Geordie follows with a perplexing look at the Gorbals vampire hunt of 1954. When a group of kids in Glasgow reported seeing a 7ft vampire with iron teeth who supposedly had killed two local children, the kids decided to hunt down this vampire in the local cemetery. The result? A moral panic that led to the censorship and banning of comic books and a terrifying siege on a traveller family. Geordie also discusses the disturbing 1973 incident of The Sandown Clown on the Isle of Wight. Called All Colours Sam, was this strange being a weird clown, an alien or was it all just strange folklore? Listen now to find out! So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week's episode, plus chat about Elon Musk, celebrity Gogglebox, chit-chat about forensic cleaning and more, only on Eavesdroppin' podcast.

On 29 August 1923, the BBC officially launched SB: Simultaneous Broadcasting. They'd been testing SB for months, via crossed lines and cross conversations with the General Post Office. It would dramatically change the shape and big idea of what broadcasting was and could be. Using landlines, they linked stations - so a Covent Garden concert could be heard nationally for the first time, as other stations gave over the schedules to big concerts, or news bulletins, or... whatever London wanted. Generally speaking. Yes, other stations could take over too - Birmingham or Glasgow might offer a concert of play. But questions were asked, even back then, of whether listeners would prefer their regular local programming, or news/concerts from the capital. Oh but we can provide you big stars, said the Programme Department. It's a move forward. But a move backward for local programming, alas - even if it was pitched to them that they could enjoy a night off. Hmm... As we explore and unpack that, we also welcome a guest - Mary Englsh, who began at the BBC in 1973 as a studio manager, wrote for The Two Ronnies, and nearly bled over Margaret Thatcher thanks to an editing accident. We hear from her, including the timely observation that the BBC perhaps win trust by "broadcasting their defeats". (In the week this podcast lands, the BBC has broadcast two of their defeats - with news reports about their Gaza documentary and Gregg Wallace. Would another channel amplify their failures quite so much? Should they? Answers on a postcard...) SHOWNOTES: Original music is by Will Farmer.

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Elise and I just got back from our own Emmaus road. We set out walking from our Jerusalem, like Cleopas and his companion into the unknown. And walk we did! Over the last two weeks we averaged six miles a day. Our peripatetic journey took us across the British isles. We worshiped in Westminster and Glasgow, the castle heights of Edinburgh and the cliffs of Howth. But of all the amazing places we visited, there was one spot I was particularly excited to visit in the small village of Kirkwall. And we reached it right on time. Forty days after the resurrection, Jesus took His disciples to a hillside near Bethany and, raising His hands, blessed them as He ascended to the Father. They watched, worshiping and amazed, as He was lifted beyond the clouds. On May 29th, Ascension Day, Elise and I arrived on Orkney Island, where in 1137, Viking Christians began building a church known as the Light of the North. It is the oldest cathedral in all of Scotland. For 900 years, followers of Jesus have gathered in this beautiful church and celebrated the ascension of our Lord. But what do we do once Jesus, who walked with us on the road, has ascended into the heavens? What are we to do now? Like the disciples before us, we return to Jerusalem with great joy, blessing God and expectantly awaiting the promise of the Father (Luke 24.52-53; Acts 1.4). As we gather this Sunday in anticipation of Pentecost, let's prepare our hearts for a fresh outpouring of God's Spirit among us!

John Niven is a Scottish author and screenwriter known for his darkly comic, satirical novels. Born in Ayrshire in 1966, he studied English Literature at the University of Glasgow before spending a decade in the music industry. This experience inspired his breakout novel, Kill Your Friends (2008), a biting satire of the late-1990s music business. The book earned widespread acclaim for its brutal honesty and sharp wit, and was later adapted into a film for which Niven co-wrote the screenplay. His other works include The Amateurs, The Second Coming, Straight White Male, and O Brother, showcasing his distinctive blend of humour, cynicism, and moral insight. In addition to novels, Niven has written for film and journalism, often exploring themes of fame, failure, and modern hypocrisy. Known for his outspoken political views, Niven remains a provocative and influential voice in contemporary British literature and culture.
The Whithorn Way follows an ancient pilgrim route from Glasgow to Whithorn in Dumfries and Galloway. In this episode, we begin on the waterfront at Irvine looking at the unique remains of an automatic tide signalling apparatus - we learn more about it at the Scottish Maritime Museum. This is followed by a walk along Irvine beach which can only be described as 'hoaching'. As they wander along the beach to Troon, Mark and Rachel contemplate the appeal of modern day pilgrimage. We also hear some reading recommendations from Christina Riley of the Nature Library. Then it's off to Prestwick to visit Bruce's Well and the site of the leper colony there. We end at St John's Tower in Ayr, a building that has seen many a significant event within its walls.
