"When I heard the field recording of people milling around Gloucester Cathedral, the choir rehearsing with the organist, I liked to think of the many ghosts that (probably) reside in the cathedral and them weaving in and out of the congregation and choir, possibly into the organ as well, unbeknownst to anyone but themselves. "The organ samples have been retuned/detuned against an waltz time drum beat playing against a common time baseline."Gloucester Cathedral soundscape reimagined by Moray Newlands.

As the first day of the German invasion of Crete drew to a close on May 20th, 1941, neither side held the clear advantage they had hoped for — the Germans had failed to secure their primary objectives, while the British commander General Freyberg struggled with poor communications and an overriding fear of a seaborne invasion that would shape his decisions in the days ahead. This episode examines the Royal Navy's critical role in the battle for Crete, exploring both the strengths and significant weaknesses of Admiral Cunningham's fleet — including the limitations of their anti-aircraft systems against the Luftwaffe — and the aggressive positioning of British naval forces north of the island to intercept German supply convoys. The episode then covers two pivotal naval engagements: the night interception of the 1st Motor Sailing Flotilla by British cruisers and destroyers, which turned back the first German reinforcement convoy with the loss of at least eight vessels and 327 men, and the pursuit of the Sagittario convoy on May 22nd, which drew British ships northward into withering Luftwaffe attack and resulted in the loss of the cruisers Gloucester and Fiji, the Warspite damaged, and over a thousand sailors killed — a day that demonstrated both the courage and the cost of the Royal Navy's commitment to holding Crete.

In an exclusive in-studio interview, global superstar Jason Derulo joins DJ Pup Dawg to chop it up about his project, The Last Dance (Part 1), and showcase his new track, "Sexy For Me". Emphasizing the lasting value of traditional, face-to-face radio runs, Jason discusses how this project serves as a nostalgic celebration of his musical journey before he transitions into an evolutionary next phase. The two cover everything from Jason's dedication to keeping his focus strictly on the music rather than publicity stunts, to his viral social media grind during the pandemic, and the massive worldwide wedding success of "Jalebi Baby". The interview wraps up with a hilarious segment where Jason attempts to navigate a list of notoriously tricky New England town names like Gloucester, Worcester, and Haverhill.

For the first time this season, Gloucester secured back to back wins in the PREM after a hard fought victory over Sale Sharks at Kingsholm. We chat through the game, the reffing and whether we may have been too harsh (probably, but it was definitely a knock on before the George Ford drop-goal). Are there possibly some embryonic signs of improvement for next season?Meanwhile, Glos-Hartpury continue their preparation for next season with multiple re-signings (and a departure) announced. We look ahead to the final weekend of the W6N and the last few games of the PWR campaign.Finally, while Ealing will be preparing for their CHAMP playoffs and potentially a move to the URC, we discuss Cornish Pirates new investment from across the pond and what that might mean for Gloucester.

Welcome to Tuesday's Rugby Daily, with Cameron Hill. Coming up, ahead of a huge game at the Aviva Stadium, the Ireland women's are hoping to become a regular fixture at Lansdowne Road. The one area that speaks to Munster's general lack of intensity ahead of a crucial weekend in the URC. The province confirm that they will commission an Independent Governance and Organisational Review,And could Ross Byrne be heading back to the URC after a difficult season at Gloucester?

The URC playoff race has officially descended into absolute carnage

His coach told him to keep the guns in the holsters. Ryan Lamb never listened. The cult Gloucester fly-half who helped light up the Premiership at just 20 years old joins Alex and Tins for a GBR classic. From locking a teacher in a cupboard to calling Stuart Lancaster "Steve", Lamby holds nothing back. He relives the iconic Bristol promotion playoff, his love-hate relationship with Dean Ryan, why he thought Premiership rugby was "quite easy," and what it's like running Plymouth Albion on their promotion charge. Honest, hilarious, and completely unfiltered - this one's not to be missed. 00:00

A very busy pod as we finally get around to reviewing Gloucester's excellent win over Exeter Chiefs (Sorry, Ed decided to watch football last week). We run through what made the difference from previous matches as well as the controversy from Slade's try and also this weekend's Champions Cup Semi Final where the French TV Director's once again took centre stage.Meanwhile Bristol Bears CEO decided that Rugby was not the main reason he goes to work every day and Glos Hartpury get even more injuries to add the growing list.Finally successful fund raises for not only Gloucester, but also our very own Marathon Man...Ed PriceJim HarleyLawrence LandrayRuss BrookesCherry Jam is proud to be sponsored by PGT LLP

At The Flicks loves cinema.  We are not just talking films here, our passion extends to the buildings (cathedrals to us), they are screened in. Last year we explored that passion in detail when contributors and friends of At The Flicks told their stories of the cinemas they remember with fondness.  If you haven't heard those episodes, please go back and check them out, you will not be disappointed. So, you can imagine our pleasure when friend of the pod, writer and director Sam Pope from Imaginary Man Productions, shared his latest short film with us.  Called The Little Cinema In Gloucester, it's a documentary celebrating the independent cinema The Sherborne based in Gloucester in the UK.  A relatively recent cinema which was created by Mark Cunningham as a local alternative to the multiplexes.  While it has been a tremendous boon to the community, Mark has encountered problems along the way, namely COVID and the closure of all cinemas at that time.  Sam's film examines the recover from that dire period and in particular focuses on the Summer of 2023 – when two films ruled the box office – Barbie and Oppenheimer.  That pivotal moment is keenly captured here, along with interviews with Mark and some of his staff. Mark's love of film stock over digital is something we at At The Flicks wholeheartedly support, even if it's not practical these days. The other aspect of The Little Cinema In Gloucester that touched our heart was the nostalgic set up of the box office and the concession stand.  It sounds almost like an aside, but getting your tea or coffee (reasonably priced) in a mug is such a rare treat these days! At present, this short film is on the festival circuit.  We would recommend you to scan the details of your local film festivals and if The Little Cinema In Gloucester is playing, then it is well worth the effort to view – you will not be disappointed. One final comment.  It is such a wonderful documentary that we encouraged one of the At The Flicks team to prepare a review for you, our listeners.  That review is the subject of our next show.  So if you need further encouragement to track this film down, wait until you hear what Declan has to say. That show will be coming very shortly from At The Flicks.  Bye for now.

Chat about school, rugby and more with Gloucester fly-half Charlie Atkinson.I enjoyed this conversation which includes Charlie taking up football and rugby early in childhood and how football maybe lead to him zeroing in on the fly-half position.Also discuss the sadness of Charlie's first club Wasps going to the wall and Charlie's teenage conflict over whether to become a pro player or continue his studies at university. Charlie is a lovely guy and I'm glad that while it's been a difficult season for Gloucester, it's been one where he's strengthened his claim on the 10 shirt. We also discuss Charlie's debut for England in the USA.To follow Charlie on Instagram: @charlieatkinson_ ***************Chief Sponsor: Bang & Olufsen Cheltenham: https://stores.bang-olufsen.com/en/united-kingdom/cheltenham/unit-15-the-courtyard-montpellier-streetInfo on Sponsor Offerings: For 15% off Herring Shoes enter the code SPORTANDLIFE at checkout at - https://www.herringshoes.co.ukFor 30% off Cytoplan supplements for your first purchase at https://www.cytoplan.co.uk and a 10% discount ongoing: Check out the intro to the podcast.For a 10% discount with GHS Cheltenham Clinics' Health Checks - https://ghsclinics.health, contact me: teddy@drapermedia.co.uk 

#117 The BBC's First Homosexual: a new play - with Dr Stephen Hornby and Professor Marcus Collins A special episode about a new play about on the true tale of Britain's first broadcast debate on homosexuality. We're outside of our moment-by-moment timeline (currently anchored in November 1923 - we return there soon) to highlight this under-appreciated moment at the 1950s BBC. After much deliberation, BBC producers planned and recorded an experimental discussion programme, but it wasn't broadcast until three years later, as an edited version called 'The Homosexual Condition'. The content may be rather shocking to today's ears, but progressive as far as its producers were concerned. The recordings are long lost, but the transcript survives and was discovered by Professor Marcus Collins (Professor of British History at Loughborough University) at the BBC Written Archives Centre. Marcus brought it to Dr Stephen Hornby (Lecturer in Drama and Theatre Practice at the University of Salford) who put pen to paper. They both join us this episode tell us how history met drama in this new play: The BBC's First Homosexual.

After another couple of weeks without a game, Gloucester returned to PREM action away to Bristol - but unfortunately it was much of the same as they ended up on the wrong side of another record defeat. We chat through the game, the disappointment with the overall manner of the performance as well as the lack of positives. We discuss why the answer given by George Skivington on the question of why the team consistently has poor starts to games, is indicative of the wider issues within the coaching set-up and playing group.Meanwhile we unpick whether the arrival of Brett Deacon and Joel Tomkins (only rumoured as we recorded on Sunday evening) would give us some hope for next year.Finally we talk through the Red Roses emphatic win over Scotland in the W6N.Ed PriceRuss BrookesJim HarleyCherry Jam is proud to be sponsored by PGT LLP

In the world of espionage, few stories are as captivating and controversial as that of the Cambridge Five. This group of British spies, who sold secrets to the Soviet Union during the Cold War, has been romanticized in popular culture as heroic figures battling against the establishment. But what if the truth is far more complex? In this blog post, we explore the myths surrounding the Cambridge Five, their true motivations, and how they fit into Stalin's overarching strategy for Europe.Grab a copy of Stalin's Apostles https://uk.bookshop.org/a/14692/9781399727891If you want to get in touch with History with Jackson email: jackson@historywithjackson.co.ukTo support History with Jackson to carry on creating content subscribe to History with Jackson+ on Apple Podcasts or support us on our Patreon - https://patreon.com/HistorywithJackson?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkTo catch up on everything to do with History with Jackson head to www.HistorywithJackson.co.ukFollow us on Facebook at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on Instagram at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on X/Twitter at @HistorywJacksonFollow us on TikTok at @HistorywithJackson Hosted on Acast.

Fred and Rosemary West looked like an ordinary couple. A home in Gloucester. A family. A life that, from the outside, seemed unremarkable. But inside 25 Cromwell Street, a house later dubbed the House of Horrors, unimaginable crimes were unfolding.Together, they tortured, abused, and murdered young women, including members of their own family. Their victims were buried beneath the house, hidden in plain sight while the world carried on around them.In this episode, Geoffrey and Molly Wansell unravel the disturbing partnership at the heart of these crimes. A relationship built on control, cruelty, and silence.CREDITS: Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly WansellProducer: Peter Shevlin https://pod60.com/Artwork: George LeighMusic: Dan WansellCONTACT: Twitter: @BloodTies_PodInstagram:@bloodtiespodcastEmail: bloodties.podcast@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcastSupport: patreon.com/bloodtiespodcastPlease complete our survey if you have time: http://bit.ly/bloodtiespodcast-survey Hosted on Acast.

Samuel Pepys exposed: secrets, suppression, and the truth behind his diary. Samuel Pepys Was Not What You Think…EXPLICIT CONTENT WARNING - NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED!For generations, Samuel Pepys has been portrayed as a witty observer of Restoration London — a charming administrator who documented plague, fire, and naval reform.But what if that version of Pepys wasn't the full story?In this explosive Gloucester History Festival Special, historian and author Guy de la Bédoyère joins History Rage to challenge the long-standing myth that Pepys was simply “a man of his time.”Drawing on decades of research — including learning Pepys's original shorthand — Guy reveals how editors suppressed, mistranslated, and obscured disturbing passages from the diary for over 200 years. What You'll Discover in This EpisodeThis episode goes beyond familiar Pepys anecdotes and digs into the hidden layers of his diary — and the people who shaped how history remembers him.Inside this episode:Why large sections of Pepys's diary were deliberately removed or mistranslated How 19th- and 20th-century editors shaped the public image of Pepys The truth behind Pepys's secret use of foreign languages and coded shorthand Why the phrase “a man of his time” can dangerously excuse behaviour Why Pepys's record remains unique in early modern history Guy explains how Pepys deliberately buried controversial actions within routine daily entries — making them easy to overlook unless carefully decoded. Why This Episode MattersPepys's diary is one of the most important personal records in English history — documenting events like:The Great Plague of 1665 The Great Fire of London The Restoration of monarchy after the English Civil Wars But Guy argues that understanding Pepys properly means confronting the uncomfortable details — not sanitising them.This episode challenges the idea that historical figures should be excused simply because of the era in which they lived — and asks what happens when historians uncover what earlier editors chose to hide.About the Guest — Guy de la BédoyèreGuy de la Bédoyère is a bestselling historian, broadcaster, and former Time Team presenter.He is widely known for his work on Roman Britain and historical biography, and his latest research focuses on uncovering suppressed truths within Pepys's writings.

Tread Perilously's annual Doctor Who month continues with "Fugitive of the Judoon." Gloucester resident Ruth Clayton is well-liked by locals, but her attempts to sell visitors on a guided tour is often met with shrugs. She's okay with it, though, as she's happily married and celebrating her 44th birthday. But when a troop of Judoon put Gloucester in a suspension field, The Doctor arrives to learn why they are so interested in Ruth and her husband. Is it possible she is more than just another tour guide? Meanwhile, Yaz, Graham and Ryan meet Captain Jack Harkness. It goes as well as you think. Justin finally meets the Fugitive Doctor! He also finds more reasons to like Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor. Tosin Cole finally makes an impression as Ryan, while Mandip Gill remains solid as Yaz and Bradley Walsh excels as Graham. The local baker, though, proves to have too much character and John Barrowman's return as Captain Jack leads down a valley of disclaimers. Any photo of someone on a phone proves to be immediately suspicious. Erik finds legitimate reason to praise co-writer Chris Chibnall. Justin recognizes a guest actor from The Umbrella Academy. The pair continue to make suggestions for the Sixteenth Doctor and Justin, at long last, understands what it means to be a Doctor Who fan.

The Mercian king history reduced to a ditch—but changed EnglandMost people know Offa of Mercia for one thing: a giant ditch dividing England and Wales. But that familiar image hides a far more powerful—and fascinating—figure.In this episode, host Paul Bavill is joined by Cambridge historian Rory Naismith to challenge the long-standing myth of Offa as a brutal warlord. Instead, we uncover a ruler who helped shape the political, economic, and diplomatic foundations of early England.Why Offa of Mercia deserves a rethinkFor centuries, narratives shaped by sources like the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle have painted Offa as a violent tyrant. But as Rory explains, that version of history is incomplete—and often biased.Look closer, and a different picture emerges:A king who ruled for nearly 40 years, stabilising a vast kingdom A ruler who centralised power across southern England A leader who pioneered systems later used by kings like Alfred the Great Offa wasn't just surviving—he was building something lasting.More than Offa's DykeYes, Offa's Dyke is impressive—stretching coast to coast and rivaling Roman engineering in scale. But it wasn't simply a defensive ditch.It was:A symbol of power and dominance A political statement to neighbouring Welsh kingdoms Part of a wider strategy to control borders and project authority Offa wasn't just reacting—he was sending a message.The king who connected kingdomsFar from being isolated, Offa operated in a deeply interconnected world.This episode explores:His rivalry and diplomacy with Charlemagne Trade, coinage, and economic reform across his realm A remarkable gold coin linking Mercia to the Islamic world From Rome to Francia, Offa was playing the game of international politics at the highest level.Offa's real legacyForget the “bloodthirsty conqueror” cliché. Offa's greatest achievement was something far more significant:Creating a unified system of kingship Bringing together multiple regions under one authority Laying the groundwork for the future kingdom of England Without Offa, the later successes of rulers like Alfred may not have been possible.Listen MoreEpisode 16 – Eleanor Janega on the Dark Ages: https://pod.fo/e/11c7f3Episode 240 – Dirk Hoffman-Becking on the Holy Roman Empire: https://pod.fo/e/3330ceGuest details: Rory NaismithTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/rory_naismith

Mark Kurlansky on The Dying Art of Catching Real Fish Guest: Mark Kurlansky We had the great fortune to sit down with Mark Kurlansky, the man who wrote the definitive book on Cod, to discuss his latest release: TO CATCH A FISH (Storey Publishing, March 31, 2026). The Hollywood elite want you to believe fly fishing is a ballet of endless shadow casting. We tear that myth apart. We discuss the reality behind the movie A River Runs Through It. The beautiful, looping casts you see on screen will leave you tangled in a mess of your own line. This leads directly to O'Leary's First Law of Fly Fishing: “Thou cannot cast thyself out of a tangle.” We also confront the grim reality of the Atlantic salmon. The corporate food complex wants you to believe the salmon at your local market is wild. It is farmed. The authentic, wild Atlantic salmon are vanishing across North America and Europe. Mark shares his rare experience of landing one in Scotland. Additionally, we briefly discuss the history of baseball in the Dominican Republic, drawing on Mark's brilliant book Eastern Stars, and, later, the listener discovers why women may be rapidly taking over the fly fishing demographic. Key Takeaways: The 30-year anniversary edition of Cod is on the horizon. Why fly fishing is the ultimate battle of wits against an animal with a brain the size of a pencil eraser. Why A River Runs Through It teaches you the “why” of fly fishing, but completely ruins the “how”. The rise of women in the fly fishing world and how they are changing the sport. *** About the author: Mark Kurlansky is a former commercial fisherman, journalist, and the New York Times bestselling author of Cod, Salt, The Big Oyster, and dozens of other books of fiction and non-fiction. He's won numerous awards, including the James A. Beard Award, ALA Notable Book Award, and New York Public Library Best Books of the Year Award, and his writing has appeared in The New York Times Sunday Magazine, Audubon Magazine, Food & Wine, The Los Angeles Times, and more. He lives with his wife and daughter in New York City and Gloucester, Massachusetts. *** Links: · TO CATCH A FISH: Essays on the Joy, Frustration, Curiosity, and Allure of Fishing https://amzn.to/4bHUugF · Cod: A Biography of the Fish that Changed the World https://amzn.to/4s5arCg · The Eastern Stars: How Baseball Changed the Dominican Town of San Pedro de Macoris https://amzn.to/3PVeWlz *** You survived another episode.

This week in the Share Shed, Vic opens the inbox and shares one of those stories that perfectly sums up the chaos of drinking days.Listener James from Gloucester writes in with a tale from his travelling years that starts with a few innocent drinks on a river in Cambodia… and somehow ends with him accidentally buying more than he bargained for!It's funny, slightly unbelievable, and a perfect reminder of the kind of decisions that can happen when booze is involved and your brain has politely clocked off for the evening.Vic also talks about why sharing these stories matters. The Share Shed isn't about shaming ourselves for the past, it's about laughing, learning and realising we're not the only ones who've woken up thinking… “what on earth happened last night?”If you've got a story of your own, something funny, awkward, cringe-worthy, or even just a question about booze and sobriety, Vic would love to hear it.You can send your stories (anonymous is absolutely fine) to:vic@soberawkward.com

Listen without Ads: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Dopeywood 2 tix: https://www.showclix.com/event/dopeywood-2026   A Monday Dopey Total Replay where Dave sets up classic Dopey Episode 16—the one with Chris's legendary “city in my boxers” LSD trip and Mark's long, chaotic prank call to a detox intake. Along the way Dave reads Spotify comments (including kratom taper talk and new listeners coming from the Billy Strings episode), shares a voicemail story about meth, a blow-up with in-laws, and a late-season Sonoran Desert toad that leads to a 5-MeO-DMT “purge.” The replay captures early Dopey's exhausted, bickering chemistry—cookies vs donuts, quitting cigarettes, Gloucester “chowder” nonsense—and Dave closes by reflecting on the early origin of “toodles,” asking for voicemails, problems, and more phony phone calls.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
