Podcast appearances and mentions of Harris Tweed

In this episode I go on a style journey with one of the UK's original and leading digital creators, Lydia Millen. I was drawn to interview Lydia as she focuses on the luxury space for her content creation, which, perhaps needless to say, is a space I have always loved. Her 15 year journey has seen her work with brand giants from Jo Malone to Hugo Boss and Tiffany…Lydia's commercial influence is hugely impressive and often unrivalled. She is influenced by the beauty of nature and seasonal living, and has amassed a global audience of over 3 million who respect and trust her authentic opinions and eye for industry-leading products and passion for timeless style that defies trends.   Her journey has not always been straightforward and she has experienced her fair share of trolling but she is pragmatic about the fact that not everyone will love her content and perhaps in the early days she didn't fully know who she was, very few people do quite frankly, but she is clear now.   We chat about how she didn't really understand the full impact of a good outfit on her wellbeing until Covid hit, when there was no reason to get dressed up as you weren't going anywhere but she realised the importance  of taking real care with what she wears on a day to day basis is an investment in herself, it was less about other people…in her words she was  “telling myself that I am worth dressing up for”…I SO love this sentiment…   By her own admission there have been some dodgy style choices including choosing to have a full blonde mullet haircut as a teenager to impress her then boyfriend.   Lydia is incredibly considered about her clothing choices and just one look at her feed shows a glorious and curated grid featuring a mainly neutral colour palette…saving strong colours for big moments…ie Ascot and special occasions…   Its no secret that she has always loved bags and by her own admission was a big collector of well made (and expensive) bags. Her first designer bag was a Mulberry which she worked 3 jobs while at university to be able to afford. Many of us have those memories of saving for that first designer purchase…mine was a Dior bag, and it was probably the cheapest one in the range but my, it felt good to go into the immaculate dove grey store on Conduit Street and soak up every moment of making my selection, watch it being beautifully wrapped and walking out of the door swinging that carrier bag proudly for the rest of the afternoon in London…   We bond over a mutual love and awe of Harris Tweed…  the tradition, the craftsmanship and the local passion that still goes into creating it.   She slightly surprised me with her Style Icon…but on reflection I fully understand why…   I hope you enjoy this episode.

Welcome to this very special partnership episode of Scran where we have teamed up with Johnnie Walker Princes Street to bring you news of a fascinating collaboration. 2 years in the making, Johnnie Walker, a brand synonymous with Scotland, quality and heritage, has teamed up with Harris Tweed Hebrides to launch a new whisky complete with luxury packaging. This is the first of the ‘Johnnie Walker Princes Street Collective' collaborations- a series that will bring together the world's leading Scotch whisky with Scotland's best creative forces to create unique and collectable whiskies. The whisky represents a world first, having been matured over the past year in special hand-selected American oak casks in the Whisky Makers Cellar at Johnnie Walker Princes Street. The cellar, which holds just 26 casks, is unique amongst bondedwarehouses in Scotland, tucked beneath one of Edinburgh's most famous streets. We went along to the launch of this new whisky to hear all about how these two Scottish power houses have come together to create something unique and special. Rosalind sat down with some of the key players in this collaboration of arguably two of Scotland's best known luxury brands. First up is Emma Walker, Master Blender, who you may recall we met just over a year ago when Johnnie Walker Princes Street first opened.  Next up is Mark Hogarth Creative Director at Harris Tweed Hebrides. Mark has spent many years working on high end collaborations and he tells us that this partnership with Johnnie Walker ticked all the boxes for the brand, especially in terms of attention to detail, Scottish heritage and sustainability. Finally Rosalind is joined by George Harper, Johnnie Walker Whisky Specialist who created the Johnnie Walker Princes Street Collective bottling. George tells Rosalind all about the process they go through in developing a whisky and a collaboration such as this as well as highlighting some exciting times ahead for Johnnie Walker fans.

Alex Cross is a homicide detective with a Ph.D. in psychology. He works and lives in the ghettos of D. C. and looks like Muhammad Ali in his prime.

But he also has two adorable kids of his own, and they are his own special vulnerabilities. Jezzie Flanagan is the first woman ever to hold a highly sensitive job as supervisor of the Secret Service in Washington. Blond, mysterious, seductive, she's got an outer shell that's as tough as it is beautiful. She rides her black BMW motorcycle at speeds of no less than 100 mph. What is she running from? What is her secret? Alex Cross and Jezzie Flanagan are about to have a forbidden love affair at the worst possible time for both of them. Because Gary Soneji, who wants to commit the "crime of the century," is playing at the top of his game. Soneji has outsmarted the FBI, the Secret Service, and the police. Who will be his next victim?

On this week's episode, we analyze the rise of preppy fashion in alternative culture. We track the history of prep from its origin on Ivy League campuses, discuss its varying cultural significance throughout the decades (The Kennedys! Vivienne Westwood! Vampire Weekend! Brandy Melville!), and unpack why a sweater vest and tennis skirt has become the go-to look for Gen Z baddies ...Links:The Official Preppy Handbook: https://issuu.com/fiyero109/docs/tophVivienne Westwood Fall 1988 (not Harris Tweed collection but similar): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UPiJOtyxho NYT Lo Lifes feature: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/30/fashion/lo-lifes-fashion-hip-hop.htmlAdditional reading on Ivy Style: http://sites.fitnyc.edu/depts/museum/Ivy_Style/

March is Women's History Month and in this week’s episode we mark the contribution of three Scottish women of substance. Mary Slessor left behind her work in the jute mills of Dundee to travel as a missionary to Nigeria where she did much to advance the rights of women and children. Catherine Herbert, Countess of Dunmore was born at the other end of the social scale and is credited with bringing Harris Tweed to the attention of the world. But were her motives entirely altruistic? Susan’s great grandmother Catherine Scott Morton has no great entries in the history books but was a trail blazer during the war and in local politics post World War Two and her efforts to improve conditions for her constituents were recognised in the award of an OBE.

How do networks influence our decision-making?As the Human Risk podcast approached its 100th episode, I thought I'd invite back two guests whose previous appearances have been amongst the most downloaded. And I'm glad I did. Because what Rory Sutherland and Gerald Ashley delivered, wasn't worthy of a single episode - it was worthy of two!So on this, the 99th episode of the podcast, I'm sharing Part I of their conversation. In it, they explore a subject they've both written about - networks. We all naturally like to make connections between things - sometimes that can be extremely useful, but it can also lead to flawed decision-making.As many of my listeners will be familiar with Rory and Gerald, I haven't included introductions. You can find those, if you need them, on their previous appearances on the show.Gerald's first appearance is here: https://www.podpage.com/the-human-risk-podcast/gerald-ashley-on-uncertainty/Rory first appearance is here: https://www.podpage.com/the-human-risk-podcast/rory-sutherland-on-compliance/What makes both such fantastic guests, is that they have lots of stories to tell; in doing so, they often make references that might not be as obvious to listeners not based in the UK. For that reason, I've included much more detailed show notes than usual. If you come across something you're unfamiliar with, then the timestamps below will hopefully help.When you've listened to this, look out for Part II of their discussion, available wherever you found this shortly after the initial release.5:35 Rory references a joke involving sheep.

Our first time driving in the UK! Was it a white-knuckler? Or super easy, barely an inconvenience? Jon shares his biggest challenges driving from the passenger seat (in the US) and on the left side of the road, and it has nothing to do with actual driving! We rented a car and took a spontaneous trip north with the intention of spending the night, um, somewhere. We like to leave our options open since we never know which direction we'll be pulled or how far we may go whenever we go on a road trip. We learned a bunch of new phrases related to driving as we drove along the Fife Coastal Route up to St. Andrews, then on to Perth before making plans to spend the night in the small village of Aberfeldy, which is now Karen's frontrunner for our retirement destination. Special place, for sure, and we both felt the vibe equally. All we need are barn boots, some Harris Tweed jackets and caps, a few JRT dogs, a cottage and a Land Rover and we're all set! After bidding adieu to Aberfeldy, we drove to Pitlochry for a stroll, scones and coffee, and then on to Stirling to visit the awe-inspiring Stirling Castle, before ending our weekend jaunt in Falkirk at The Kelpies, the 30-meter-high horse-head sculptures depicting kelpies, or mythical shape-shifting water spirits. We're now looking forward to our next spontaneous road trip!Follow us on Instagram: @SumplaceNewFollow us on Facebook: @SumplaceNewCredits:Intro/Outro Music: The World at Large by Daniel O'ConnorIntro VO: Laura Welsh

Harris Tweed is a Scottish original, woven by hand in the homes of residents of the Outer Hebrides islands. It has a rich history and its future is critical to the islands economy as we learn from Lorna Macaulay, CEO of the Harris Tweed Authority.

“Büstenhalter!” (No, the entire episode isn’t in German…) The podcast hosts have their lederhosen on and their strumpf pulled up for this famous and fabulous episode of AYBS. We encounter some anti-German sentiment by the older staff at Grace Brothers. We discuss how the “Common Market” grew into the European Union today and how it made London possibly more cosmopolitain. Would Mr. Grainer had voted for the #Brexit removal of the UK from the #EuropeanUnion? (The Podcast would have voted to #remain!) Professor Jeff explains German superwords like Mr. Lucas’ manschettenknöpfe. Jeff & Brandon are giddy at seeing the fabulous Joanna Lumley play a German who really wants to buy some Harris Tweed. Brandon shares a memory about his first trip to London where he met Florence, a friendly older lady who remembered the London bombing. Traditional German costumes (and Mr. Humphries’ short, short-shorts). Brandon claims his future AYBS Convention cos-play outfit. Mrs. Slocombe gets drunk, much to our delight. The staff perform a traditional German toe taping, face-slapping dance, much to Mrs. Solcombe’s chagrin. Let us know what you think!

Als je als links persoon kritiek uit op de gang der zaken, krijg je vaak naar je hoofd geslingerd 'o ja, hoe moet het dan?', en vervolgens 'nou, zo gaat het niet in de echte wereld'. Waarom is het zo moeilijk om een echt radicale toekomst in te beelden? Thijs en Pim gaan dieper in op die vraag en presenteren wat ideeën voor de werkweek, de openbare ruimte, tweed en de film Titanic.

Four weeks into our collective Great Pause, the Bafflers examine “Red Shift,” Ted Berrigan’s iconic New York School poem. This close reading – distinguished in part by our own Sparrow having been Berrigan’s student - proceeds from the astrophysical definition of “redshift” to speculations into what attributive meanings to which Berrigan might allude. This includes a broad look into the nature of time as surfaced in the poem and in part depth charged in Berrigan situating the poem “at 8:08 p.m.” (the Eight-Fold Path, I-Ching and Hubble’s insights into an exploding universe). We touch on his forebearers – Allen Ginsberg, Frank O’Hara and John Ashbery - as well as Berrigan’s friends and allies, including Joe Brainard, Dick Gallup and Ron Padgett (including a nod to the latter’s memoir TED). We look to his nineteenth-century antecedents in the Transcendentalists and Whitman as well as how Berrigan self-identified as a late Beatnik. We touch on the role the song “California Dreaming” plays in the work and Berrigan’s working-class poetics, among other ruminative forays, including the Esopus River, the poets Jorie Graham, Bernadette Mayer, Lewis Warsh and Robinson Jeffers, as well as what existential insight might be disguised in a Harris Tweed jacket. SPECIAL FEATURE: We embed a recording of Berrigan reading the work at Naropa University, 1982, from EXACT CHANGE Yearbook 1995 no. 1 (Ed. Peter Gizzi). ADDENDUM: 1. The chronological early publishing history of THE SONNETS is correctly listed below: C Press — c1963. Mimeograph edition Grove Press — c1967 United Artists — 1982 (With seven additional sonnets not in original) 2. This podcast includes speculation around Berrigan's financial straits and schemes as well as the circumstances around his death. We regret and ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies, and please listen with an open heart.

Harris Tweed ist der Rolls-Royce unter den Wollstoffen. Gewebt wird er auf den Äußeren Hebriden, die wie ein Riegel vor der Nordwestküste Schottlands liegen.

Die Natur ist rau, gesprochen wird gälisch. Berühmt sind die Äußeren Hebriden vor allem für den Harris Tweed, den Weber hier aus Wolle produzieren. Ein Reisebericht. Von Jens-Peter Marquart

Patrick Grant is an award-winning British menswear designer and a champion of British manufacturing. In 2005, he quit a career in engineering, remortgaged his house and sold his car to buy Norton & Sons, a failing Savile Row tailoring house. He’s since transformed it into one of the Row’s most elegant and successful bespoke tailors.He went on to establish E.Tautz, a modern British sportswear brand that’s informed by its rich history of clothing innovation. Most recently, he founded Community Clothing, a design co-operative that makes clothes for men and women using British factories, and supporting local communities in the process. To do this, he’s developed a new retail model to create high quality clothes that can compete with fast fashion in terms of price.He speaks to Aleks about how he’s broken the mould, and why we all need to think differently about where our clothes are made.***This episode of HandCut Radio is sponsored by Floris.

Ett extra fullmatat avsnitt från vår resa med Red Fox Travel till Yttre Hebriderna i början av juni. Vi berättar allt - och lite till - som vi var med om på denna fantastiska resa med sticktema.

Reg and Tiff talk about fashion events they went to, their Fashion Heroes (Bill Cunningham) and Reg's quest to have some Harris Tweed in his life.

This episode, Lina and Forrest unpack the Major Motion Picture, Angels and Demons (starring the inimitable Thomas Hanks). Some movies are so bad they're good; this is not the case with Angels and Demons. This movie is full of Nordic people for no reason, and director Ron Howard has successfully scrubbed any trace of daddy issues from the plot. However, if you were worried about losing Robert Langdon's signature pedantic demeanor, you won't be disappointed (although his signature Harris Tweed is nowhere to be found). Follow us on Twitter @DanBrownCodePod. Lina can be found @LinaJemili, and Forrest can be found @WishboneUlysses. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's a colourful new addition to Porty High Street. For years, the shop at Number 239 was home to RACE Couriers. But now, its grey exterior and empty interior - apart from a reception desk - have gone, replaced by bright blue paint and an array of goods for sale inside. So what prompted the change?

Barry finally gets a chance to try on his all-weather action Tweed in this jaunt to the Outer Hebrides.

Eine abgelegene Inselwelt am Rande Europas: Die Äußeren Hebriden. In einem 150 Kilometer langen Bogen erstrecken sie sich vor der Westküste Schottlands. Roddy Campbell lebt mit seiner Frau Mairi und vier Kindern in dem kleinen Dorf Drinishader an der Ostküste der Insel Harris. Er ist Fischer, seine Frau versorgt die Kinder und das Haus. Außerdem bieten die Campbells Reisenden Unterkunft in ihrer kleinen Herberge an. Roddys Mutter Kate arbeitet als Weberin, sie produziert den traditionellen Harris-Tweed. Roddys älteste Tochter Alyson ist zwölf und will von der alten Sprache der Äußeren Hebriden, dem Gälischen, nichts wissen. Sie lebt in einer englisch geprägten Kultur, in der das Gälisch zum Aussterben verurteilt ist. Alysons Freundin Tamy Gibbs ist mit ihrer Familie von Südafrika auf die Hebriden gezogen. Ihre Mutter Pippa plant, mit Tourismus Geld zu verdienen. Dazu trainiert sie gerade zwei junge Lamas, die im Sommer mit Touristen und Führern auf kurze Wanderungen geschickt werden sollen. Der nur über O-Töne der Protagonisten erzählte Film vermittelt ein authentisches Bild vom Leben in der Abgeschiedenheit am Rande Europas. (Online-Signatur Medienzentren: 4981802)

In this episode, I ramble on about one of my favorite new restaurant discoveries in my new town of Cleveland, OH. The sartorial update is the story of how I got a wonderful new (old) Harris Tweed jacket, which I purchased on eBay and had tailored by my local resource. On the effective living end, I wax on about my approach to furnishing my new digs. Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoy the episode and the weekend.
