In a special ‘on the road' edition of the Royal Blue podcast, ECHO Everton correspondent Joe Thomas and ECHO Everton reporter Chris Beesley analyse Everton's 1-0 win at Newcastle United and the second half of the season under David Moyes as they drive back from St James' Park. The Blues secured their fifth away victory since  the Glaswegian returned to Goodison Park thanks to Carlos Alcaraz's second half header to spoil the Magpies Champions League party while in the face of his usual barracking from the Toon Army, Jordan Pickford rammed the taunts down his North East rivals' throats with another masterclass in goal.

When Rachael Mills took up crochet as a means to giving up smoking, little did she realise that it would one day lead to her making a Turner Prize winning doily! Last year, when the Glaswegian artist Jasleen Kaur was named the winner of the Turner Prize, crocheter Racheal was celebrating at home in Blackburn. I was thrilled when she agreed to come onto the podcast to share her side of this amazing story.Rachael's first creative job was piece work sewing at a bridal gown factory, she then went on to set up her own sewing business when she was made redundant and later on took up crochet as a hobby to keep her hands busy when she gave up smoking. She now spends her mornings on her sewing business and her afternoons crocheting commissions and teaching up to 50 people each week in her crochet classes.You can find Rachael's creative business Facebook pages here: REM Designs for sewing and Crazy Crochet Creations.For full show notes for this episode, please visit this page on the Making Stitches Podcast website.To join the mailing list for the Making Stitches Newsletter, please click onto this linkThe theme music is Make You Smile by RGMusic from Melody Loops.The Making Stitches logo was designed by Neil Warburton at iamunknown.You can support Making Stitches Podcast with running costs through Ko-fi.Making Stitches  Podcast is supported by the Making Stitches Shop which offers Making Stitches Podcast merchandise for sale as well as Up the Garden Path crochet patterns created by me & illustrated by Emma Jackson.Making Stitches Podcast is presented, recorded and edited by Lindsay Weston.

Assad has fallen! The Tyrant is no more! Long live the revolution!    There has been a genuine outpouring of jubilation among Syrians at home and abroad - even the ones working at the Syrian embassy in Moscow who ‘chose' to fly the rebel flag. But the international responses are messier - regional players talk of maintaining Syria's territorial integrity, while several countries welcome the new order with bombing raids (especially Turkey and Israel who are now operating inside Syria to weaken their enemies and occupy buffer zones). Meanwhile, even as Europeans ask whether jihadis will dominate the new Syria, the same European governments (notably Austria) are simultaneously drawing up plans to deport the Syrian refugees seeking asylum in their country -- because it must be safe now, right?    In this bonus episode examining the Post-Assad Syria: From Euphoria to Uncertainty, Jason is joined by our returning Glaswegian champion, Jane Kinninmont. She is just back from an international conference in Doha where she sat one row behind Russia's FM Sergei Lavrov.    Jane and Jason tell stories from their times in Syria… about sweets and about being spied on. They break down all things Syria. Trying to draw lessons from a disorderly past to an orderly future.    We examine: did Russia and Iran throw Assad under a bus? Several things changed in the regional calculus but - primarily they realized the game was up for Assad domestically. To save him they would have needed to commit major forces, and at a time when Israel might well have willing to join the fight to make sure that Iran lost - at least if Iran sent troops. And while those were clearly the major calculations, the “benefits” part of the Russo-Iranian cost-benefit analysis of propping up Assad had also dwindled.   Iran wasn't actually getting so many benefits from Assad -- who spent most of the year trying to stay out of the regional war, avoid confronting Israel and pursue normalisation with Arab states.     The episode ends with Jane and Jason Ordering the Disorder by concluding that the West and the Middle East alike were caught horribly unprepared. Still wounded by the experience of Iraq and Afghanistan, Western countries may shy away from lending serious capacity building assistance to a democratic Syrian led transition process - but fatalism is the wrong approach - the transition is more likely to be more peaceful and more successful if more political and economic resources are invested in it - especially by democratic countries willing to use carrots and sticks.     Producer: George McDonagh  Executive Producer: Neil Fearn    Subscribe to our Substack: https://natoandtheged.substack.com/    Show Notes Links    The David Runciman Pod that Jane mentions explaining linear vs cyclical and non-linear conceptions of history: https://www.ppfideas.com/episodes/the-history-of-bad-ideas%3A-the-end-of-history    Jason's appearance on Monocle's The Globalist talking more about the Alawites: https://monocle.com/radio/shows/the-globalist/3495/play/     A great Special Briefing from my former colleagues at MEI about what's next in Syria: https://www.mei.edu/blog/special-briefing-after-assads-fall-whats-next-syria-and-region    Israel, Seeing an Opportunity, Demolishes Syria's Military Assets: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/10/world/middleeast/israel-strikes-syria.html    A visual timeline of the events: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/10/world/middleeast/syria-civil-war-rebels-timeline-assad.html     While international support is crucial, Syrians must lead their country's political transition: https://www.chathamhouse.org/2024/12/while-international-support-crucial-syrians-must-lead-their-countrys-political-transition    Learn more about your ad choices.

For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali spoke to writer and journalist Alan Taylor to talk about this latest book, Edinburgh: The Autobiography, which is published with Birlinn Books. Following on from 2016's Glasgow: The Autobiography, Alan talks about why the time was right for Edinburgh to get similar treatment (its publication coincides with the city's 900th anniversary), the format of the book, the research required, trying to maintain balance in terms of themes and subjects, and goes into detail about just some of the people who, and the places and events which, would shape Scotland's capital, especially its literary legacy. The two also discuss the impact of two periods in particular, namely The Enlightenment and all things Edinburgh Festival, looking at the incidents which fired both, and how they came to change perceptions of the city both at home and abroad. A conversation with Alan Taylor is always entertaining and educational, and an absolute pleasure, and, as a proud Glaswegian with an undying fondness for Edinburgh, it was fascinating to not only read the book (a review of which will be in the next SNACK magazine) but to be able to discuss it with the Editor himself. If you thought you knew Auld Reekie, think again. Full details, including all the ways to listen, are over at scotswhayhae.com

Chris Beesley speaks to Alan Irvine – who served Everton in three different capacities – in the latest episode of Goodison Park: My Home. The Glaswegian recalls how his Everton journey started in bizarre circumstances as the manager who convinced him to join the club, Gordon Lee, was sacked while he was in the building with him but explains how the fact that the by now former Blues boss' glowing endorsement only reinforced his decision to sign for them from Queen's Park. Irvine was then part of new manager Howard Kendall's emerging team and played in the first all-Merseyside Wembley final but injuries cost him a place in the side that would lift the FA Cup at the end of that season and he moved on to Crystal Palace. In 2002, he returned to Everton as David Moyes' assistant and the pair helped revive the Blues fortunes again before he went off to try his hand at management himself although he would later come back for a third spell with the Blues as he headed their academy and at 66, Irvine insists Everton remain the club closest to his heart.

Can you believe it was back in February 2020 when we did our Britpop mixtape? How wild is that? This week we're joined by Glaswegian musician Andy Isacsson, otherwise known as Luminous, who has picked this week's record. We chat at length about his latest record, Precarious Karma, which took him about a decade to complete. We dive into the influences behind it, the reasons it took so long to finish, and much more. Then, we get into the business of talking about Baader Meinhof and Luke Haines. Unlike a lot of musicians, Andy opted not to release his music on Spotify. So you can check out his album here on Bandcamp. For Record Club subscribers, we've also added it to our catalogue. It's pretty great, and we thoroughly recommend giving it a whirl. To wit. We always knew we'd come back to Britpop one day and we always suspected we'd do so via unorthodox means. Baader Meinhof by Baader Meinhof, Luke Haines' sorta kinda first solo album, gave us a wee chance to do that. Not because it's a Britpop record – it's far from it – but Haines himself has proven to be quite a large figure in the history of that genre. He's also got a massive discography. In this episode, we touch a little bit on The Auteurs, then very briefly look at Black Box Recorder and a minimal selection of his solo discography. Maybe next week we'll escape from the 90s hole we seem to have found ourselves in, but I wouldn't bet on it...

James - by his own definition - is a journeyman. He's been a DJ, a TV producer, a TV presenter, a footballer in the Philippines, a double glazing salesman and now - one of Scotlands best stand up comedians.Born in Glasgow to an Indian mother and Glaswegian father, he had a unique and distinct perspective on life from the very outset. You'll hear about his upbringing, his younger sister Lauren and older brother Alexander. Alexander has complex additional needs and requires 24 hour care - something James unravelled in great detail in one of his previous stand up shows.You'll hear James talk about comedy and what makes things funny, regardless of how dark the subject matter is…We talk about his genuinely fascinating career path and how it's led him to where he is today, with a good few funny stories for good measure…And James talks me through what he describes as a breakdown, and the clarity of vision and purpose that followed as a result.Edinburgh Fringe Show TicketsHealth Booster Salt CavesContact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.comInstagram: @seantmcdonaldTwitter: @seanmcdonald01 Hosted on Acast.

It's a touching but heartbreaking tale of a young Glaswegian boy's desperate efforts to save his mother Agnes from the alcoholism that ruins and degrades her. It won the Booker Prize in 2020. As we're in Wales Harriett's fitting choice is Bruce Chatwin's On The Black Hill an account of rural Welsh life in the mid 20th century. It's the story of two brothers' lives over 80 years and their connection to land and community. Bruce Robinson actor, director and writer of the hit film Withnail and I which has been adapted for stage chooses a book that features in the final scene of the film. The I character places two books in a suitcase at the end of the film, one of which is A Rebours - Against Nature by Joris-Karl Huysmans. Bruce confesses that he's not the book's biggest fan but the ensuing discussion provides an entertaining insight into books we might read when we're younger and how differently we feel about them in later life. It's the story of an eccentric recluse Jean des Esseintes in 19th century France who loathes people and creates a fantasy world for himself but ultimately suffers from his self-inflicted pretentious ennui. "I wish I hadn't chosen this book" proclaims Bruce Robinson as he introduces it. "I wish you hadn't chosen it" agrees Doon Mackichan. They then elicit a lot of audience laughter from their deconstruction of this seminal French novel that all three find pretentious.This is a longer version of the broadcast programme.Producer: Maggie Ayre

Episode 149It was 2006, a year filled with dubious fashion choices, bad pop music, and me, at the ripe old age of 35, freshly single and drowning in self-pity at a bar that could only be described as a dive for people too drunk to notice. Picture it: the kind of establishment where the air is thicker than a Glaswegian accent and the floor sticks to your shoes with a mystery substance that likely has its own ecosystem. I was nursing a whiskey, contemplating the futility of existence and the cost of alimony, when she walked in—Helen. Think Lady Macbeth with a credit card and a desperate need for distraction.Helen was rich, successful, and so bored with her marriage that even a bloke like me, who looked like he'd been dragged through a hedge backward, seemed like an upgrade. She sauntered over, oozing money and Chanel No. 5, and parked herself next to me. "You look like you could use some company," she purred. In any other setting, this might've been the start of a crime drama, but here, it was just the universe laughing at me.Fast forward through a couple of overpriced cocktails, and Helen had decided that what she needed wasn't a divorce but a hobby. And that hobby, astonishingly, was me. Now, I wasn't raised to be a gigolo. My mother had dreams of me becoming something respectable, like a taxidermist or a career criminal. But there I was, signing up to be Helen's personal boy toy. And no, it wasn't about the money, I told myself. It was about the adventure. Alright, it was mostly about the money.For a few months, my life was something out of a bad rom-com. I was dragged to high-end restaurants where the food was as pretentious as the clientele, luxury shopping sprees where I learned that socks could cost more than my rent, and weekends at her beach house, which was basically a mansion that screamed “compensating for something.” My mates were half-convinced I'd sold my soul, and they weren't far off.But like all good things, it was bound to go tits up. Enter Lydia, the wife of an arms dealer to the Asia-Pacific. Lydia was the kind of woman who made Helen look like Mother Teresa. She had the air of someone who could order a hit with the same casual ease as ordering a latte. We met at one of Helen's ludicrously expensive parties, and despite my brain screaming, “RUN, YOU IDIOT,” I was drawn to her like a moth to a particularly well-dressed flame.Our affair was brief, torrid, and about as smart as juggling chainsaws. When Helen found out, she went ballistic. But Lydia's husband? He made Helen look like a teething puppy. Messing with the wife of an arms dealer is like playing Russian roulette with a semi-automatic—it's not going to end well. Suddenly, my life was less "Pretty Woman" and more "No Country for Old Men." I spent a few weeks dodging shadows and contemplating witness protection.In the end, it was Helen who saved me. She used her ridiculous wealth and connections to call off Lydia's husband, possibly by promising to buy him a small country or a football team. I didn't ask for details. The whole escapade ended with me back in the bar, broke and single, but now with a story so absurd that even my friends started buying me drinks just to hear it again.So there it is. The tale of how I became an accidental gigolo, got entangled with an arms dealer's wife, and lived to tell the tale. And if there's a moral to this story, it's probably something about not mixing whiskey with desperation. But who am I kidding? I'll probably be back at that bar next week.

Stand-up comedy from Glaswegian comedian Gary Little, who hilariously shows there's always two ways of looking at things.Growing up in the second poorest area of Scotland, Gary's life seemed inevitably set to be marred by depression, addiction or incarceration.The violence and social deprivation in Glasgow's Springburn boiled down to survival of the fittest, where Gary's honed wits kept him alive and prosperous.But dodgy childhood deals led him to darker places - selling drugs to his friends, then their friends, and then… everyone's friends.In this episode, Gary reflects on the lies he swallowed as a child, including Uncle Elvis, and how being a people pleaser ultimately led to trouble he couldn't talk his way out of, and eight years inside.More true criminal than true crime, this series gives a different perspective on life before, behind and beyond bars.Written and performed by Gary Little. Produced by Julia Sutherland A Dabster production for BBC Radio 4.

At the end of the show a question from Roger Hyam Recommendations: Ruth The Glasgow Girl (Paperback) - Aasmah Mir  A Glasgow Girl is the coming of age story of Aasmah Mir's childhood growing up in 1970s Glasgow. From a vivacious child to a teenage loner, Aasmah candidly shares the highs and lows of growing up between two cultures - trying to fit in at school and retreating to the safe haven of a home inhabited by her precious but distant little brother and Helen, her family's Glaswegian guardian angel. Intricately woven into this moving memoir is the story of Aasmah's mother, as we follow her own life as a young girl in 1950s Pakistan to 1960s Scotland and beyond. Both mother and daughter fight, are defeated and triumph in different battles in this sharp and moving story. A Glasgow Girl is a remarkable memoir about family, identity and finding yourself where you are.

There's a fair chance you haven't heard of Yacøpsæ before unless you're very much in tune with DIY grind/powerviolence. One of the things we started this podcast to do was to shine a light on great bands were think are truly unsung. This band are one such example of that. They're very underground, and are very, very, very brutal. In part one we talk about the squat scene, the definition of grindcore, how it differs from powerviolence and dive into their large, unwieldy catalogue. As this is a genre we're mostly unfamiliar with, we brought in the expertise of Joe McGlynn, who you may remember from our Carcass episodes. He was in a band called Man Must Die, now in a cool hardcore band called Go Down Fighting, and is a host of Shit You May Not Have Seen podcast. Things get very weegie here too, so be prepared for some incomprehensible Glaswegian accents.

On this episode, we were joined by author Andrew O'Hagan to discuss his truly exciting new novel, Caledonian Road, which has been selected as the Hatchards Fiction Book of the Month for April.Wedged between two epochal events that have shaped our age — the global pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine — the story follows Campbell Flynn, art historian, TV presenter, London resident, and man in free fall, as a web of crime and conspiracy eviscerates his sense of self-identity and redefines what it means to be a “good liberal” at a time where nothing is above scrutiny.Andrew spoke us to about taking inspiration from classic Victorian novels; how his time spent with figures like Julian Assange and South London gangs informs the book's characters; why novelists should write without fear; and as Andrew is Glaswegian, we cover the city's ill-fated “Willy Wonka Experience” that grabbed global headlines back in March.Signed copies of the book are now available to be purchased in-store or on our website. Hosted by Ryan Edgington and Matt Hennessey.---Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/vocalista/in-the-hall-of-the-mountain-king-acapellaLicense code: ARSRS82KANYK7CLW
