Podcasts about Hodgson

Oliver Glasner has set fire to his own ship at Crystal Palace, so imagine this - which old reliable strigiform is ready to swoop from the skies and extinguish the blaze? None other than Roy Hodgson of course! Unfortunately for the Ramble, that probably isn't going to happen. So if they don't break glass for Hodgson, who should they get instead?Luke and Jim are on the Mailbag to tell Marcus that Sir Gareth Southgate might not be the answer to that question either.

The English contralto Alfreda Hodgson (07 June 1940 – 16 April 1992) has been featured numerous times on Countermelody and when I recently acquired a copy of her 1980 solo recital recording originally released on Pearl Records, I decided that the time was right to do a full episode on this rich-voiced, profoundly musical singer. Though she was equally superb in Bach, Mahler, Handel, and Elgar, I have chosen to focus on her performances of the music of Johannes Brahms, including superb recordings of the Alto Rhapsody, the Songs for Alto and Viola, the Vier ernste Gesänge, and a posthumously-assembled collection of his Lieder published under the title Mädchenlieder. Artists accompanying Hodgson include Bernard Haitink, Edward Downes, violist Ludmila Navrath, and her long-standing pianist, the late Keith Swallow. I begin the episode with brief examples of Hodgson singing (in English) the music of her countrymen Lennox Berkeley, Edward Elgar, and John Ireland in the company of Peter Pears, Gennady Rozhdestvensky, Steuart Bedford, and Alan Rowlands. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

"Al final me di cuenta de que solo era un hombrecillo a bordo de un pequeño barco en mitad del vasto océano" El autor británico William Hope Hodgson fue sin saberlo, uno de los más influyentes escritores de horror sobrenatural de su generación. A lo largo de su vida, sus textos a penas le proporcionaron ingresos, muchos de sus relatos no se publicarían hasta después de su muerte durante la primera guerra mundial. Su fama se acrecentó de manera póstuma, y fueron otros escritores y lectores del género los que reconocieron la importancia de su legado. Demonios del mar fue publicado por primera vez el 5 de octubre de 1923, en la revista Sea Stories. forma parte de la colección de relatos marítimos que Hodgson desarrolló inspirándose en muchas de las mentadas experiencias. Hodgson nunca perdió su fascinación por el mar, pero la dura vida entre marineros le pasó factura, sufro el maltrato y desazón de un oficio duro y poco agradecido… No se pierdan esta maravillosa compilación de Los Mares Grises Sueñan con mi Muerte , con la edición y traducción de José María Nebreda… https://www.valdemar.com/libro/los-mares-grises-suenan-con-mi-muerte/ Sigan al maestro Toliol en sus redes del Mal https://bsky.app/profile/toliol.bsky.social Sigan las redes de Librería Gigamesh https://bsky.app/profile/gigamesh.com

William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land (1912) is a staggering piece of early weird fiction — an immense, apocalyptic vision set millions of years in the future, after the sun has died. Humanity survives in the Last Redoubt, a titanic metal pyramid lit by internal power, surrounded by eternal darkness and monstrous forces that hunger for the light within. The protagonist, a telepathic man of that far-future world, senses the spirit of his long-dead love calling from another human fortress — the Lesser Redoubt — now besieged in the black wilderness. Driven by love and duty, he ventures into the Night Land: a desolate, monster-haunted plain where the Earth's surface is stalked by “Watchers,” “Silent Ones,” and colossal horrors that defy comprehension. It's equal parts cosmic horror, doomed romance, and proto-science-fantasy. Hodgson's prose is archaic, deliberately medieval in tone, which makes the book feel like an illuminated manuscript describing a dream of the end of time. Modern readers often find it dense, but it rewards endurance — this is an early ancestor of Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and dark science fiction from Dune to Dark Souls.

In this episode, we're kicking off a short series all about pivoting, evolving, and exploring new creative seasons as a photographer. It's so easy to stay siloed inside the same family photography conversations, hearing the same strategies and the same voices. But there is so much to learn from photographers who step outside the familiar and build something new. Today's guest—Nicole Hodgson—is the perfect guest to kick it off. Nicole is a former marriage and family therapist turned lifestyle brand photographer based in Northern California. She began her business photographing families, but over time, her sessions started filling with women who were also building businesses of their own. That pattern nudged her toward a new direction, and eventually, a full pivot into brand photography. In this warm and candid conversation, we talk about: The early signs that her niche was shifting The first steps she took to bring a new direction to life The identity work behind rebuilding a business from the ground up The honest pros and cons of family photography How her past career shaped her perspective as an artist and entrepreneur The confidence it takes to be the face of your brand The power of journaling for capturing new ideas and having confidence with executing on them Nicole shares her approach to a new pricing model for brands vs what made sense for her family clients and the financial logic behind marketing to brands versus families—an incredibly helpful lens for anyone curious about expanding their services. Whether you're considering brand photography, navigating your own pivot, or just wondering what else is possible in this industry, this episode is a reminder that your identity, your opportunities, and your creativity are bigger than any niche. // LINKS MENTIONED //  Rebrand with Maddie Peshong: https://www.maddiepeschong.com/brand-photography Episode 18: The benefits of being an introverted photographer switching careers, shooting multiple genres, and more with Caitlin Alohilani  Free Resources for Family Photography Education: https://www.leahoconnell.com/learn   // CONNECT //    Nicole Hodgson  Website: www.nicolehodgsonphotography.com Instagram: @nicolehodgson.photography   Leah O'Connell Website: https://www.leahoconnell.com Instagram: @leahoconnell.photo

When reporters asked Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson about the potential of more MPs crossing the floor to the Liberals on Monday, Hodgson hinted that he's getting 'lots of inquiries.' Former Liberal campaign co-chair David Herle and former Conservative chief of staff David McLaughlin break down whether Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's response to the crossings will be enough to shore up his caucus — and his future as leader. Plus, the Power Panel weighs in on new comments from Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc, who says the next direct U.S. engagement on trade likely won't be until the review of the North American free trade agreement.

William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land (1912) is a staggering piece of early weird fiction — an immense, apocalyptic vision set millions of years in the future, after the sun has died. Humanity survives in the Last Redoubt, a titanic metal pyramid lit by internal power, surrounded by eternal darkness and monstrous forces that hunger for the light within. The protagonist, a telepathic man of that far-future world, senses the spirit of his long-dead love calling from another human fortress — the Lesser Redoubt — now besieged in the black wilderness. Driven by love and duty, he ventures into the Night Land: a desolate, monster-haunted plain where the Earth's surface is stalked by “Watchers,” “Silent Ones,” and colossal horrors that defy comprehension.

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back for another episode of Scouser Tommies and it's one of those times where it's not comfortable to talk about Liverpool FC, but Liverpool FC is something that really needs talking about. Four points in two games doesn't sound like the end of the world, but given the opposition and the awful run it followed it wasn't exactly world-saving stuff from the Reds. All the worries that were there through the three defeats in a row with 10 goals against are still there. That's one of the biggest worries for Jay and Jim - there isn't a sign of a single tweak to make things better, let alone the raft of changes Arne Slot needs to make to get his side back up to the top. At times like this it is impossible not to make comparisons to dark days from the past, and as Jay explains, for David Brent to be getting a mention on a podcast is a very bad sign, but to have the ghost of Hodgson past even crossing our minds right now it's clear we are in a bad place. The football is dire, the press conference comments are getting more and more delusional, hope is fading fast. Square pegs in round holes, and some of them glued in and unable to be budged no matter how useless they become. Confidence ebbing away, and players with a clear determination to make things better being left out in the cold. The manager's comments on Harvey Elliott, one of those players you could never fault for desire, are a worry in themselves. As Jim and Jay explain, Liverpool is not like other clubs when it comes to changing manager, or head coach if that's what you've called him. It's not a decision to be taken lightly, it should never be a knee-jerk reaction, must never be allowed to get to the point of banners calling for his head or chants telling him where to go. It has to be for the good of the club. But the longer this goes on, the worse it gets for the club, the nearer we get to the kind of banners and chants no Liverpool fan should want to see or hear. This podcast is not taking this situation lightly, but action is needed soon. Liverpool are only within touching distance of the top four because of other people messing up. They won't mess up forever, a decision needs to be taken, and fast. As Roy Hodgson himself once said, "It's like turning a big ship around. It takes time." He was right, but of course he didn't know how to slow it down, let alone stop it and turn it around. Does this one? It seems not, and the longer it takes to bring someone in the worse it will get. If the long term target will take time to acquire then, as discussed by Jim and Jay, maybe it's time to look at someone to fill in for the meantime, someone who can at least find the anchor.

In this episode, I sit down with Luke to unpack why consumer brands are still struggling to turn AI hype into real value.We break down the big myths, including the widely shared idea that most AI projects fail and whether that was ever true for this industry.Luke shares insights from more than thirty brand interviews, revealing the same pattern everywhere. Leaders believe AI will reshape operations, but most don't know where to start, feel overwhelmed by the pace of change, and lack a practical playbook. Public case studies are thin because real experiments are happening quietly inside teams with no time to share them.We dig into the blockers too: vendor over-promising, fragmented tech stacks, unclear budgets, and rising pressure from shareholders to show progress.A straight, honest conversation about where brands really are and what it will take to make AI actually deliver.This podcast is brought to you by Glara.ai - the Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) platform helping ecommerce brands grow through AI search visibility.

What would happen if you stopped for a moment and actually looked at how far you've come in your business? How much easier would things feel if you recognised the wins, the lessons, the mistakes, and the mentors who helped you get here? And what breakthroughs might you unlock if you took stock of everything you should be thankful for as a pet business owner? In this Thanksgiving-themed episode, I take a breather from the post-Hershey whirlwind to reflect on the major moments, decisions, and people that have shaped my business journey. From leaving Imperial Tobacco, to finding the right clients, to building a team I trust, I lay out the unfiltered truth about what it really takes to create a business that grows, evolves, and keeps moving forward even when an unstable economy, government changes, or other people make it feel harder than it needs to be. You'll hear my gratitude list (with a few surprises on it), the pitfalls I've learned from, and why I credit much of my success to the mentors and masterminds who helped me skip years of pain and fast-track real progress. I also dive into the importance of pricing courage, innovation, better boundaries, and attracting the right clients – the ones who make the work feel like fun rather than friction. In this episode, you'll discover: The Power of Being a Business Owner – Why choosing this path (and sticking with it) is something to be proud of. Clients Worth Protecting – How the right customers make your business lighter, happier, and far easier to grow. Mentors & Masterminds – Why fast progress happens when you stop guessing and start listening to people who've done it. Learning From Mistakes – How failures like the online store became fuel for better systems, smarter pricing, and stronger positioning. Courage, Growth & Innovation – Why pushing out of your comfort zone is the key to bigger breakthroughs in 2026. If you've been head-down, grinding through the chaos of Christmas bookings, staffing headaches, or end-of-year admin, this episode is your reminder to zoom out, breathe, and acknowledge the progress you've already made, and the opportunities waiting for you.I To grab a copy of my latest book Mission Enrich, click here now  Huge thanks to our sponsors PawPal, who's amazing services you can find more about here: https://pawpal.uk

Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson briefed an uneasy B.C. Liberal caucus on the upcoming Ottawa-Alberta agreement on Wednesday. A government source called it a 'good' discussion — but other sources in the meeting say Hodgson used words like 'naive' and 'ideological' to describe their political and environmental concerns. Plus, the presidents of steel and lumber trade groups discuss whether Ottawa's new suite of supports for their industries will be enough for them to survive U.S. tariffs as trade talks remain frozen.

On this episode, I'm joined again by Luke Hodgson to talk about a shift that's quietly taking place inside every brand: the move from customer experience to operator experience.We unpack what Luke calls OX2030; his framework for how AI is reshaping the way brands actually run. The idea is simple but big. Over the next decade, the biggest transformation in retail won't happen on the front end. It will happen behind the scenes, in the systems, workflows and cross-functional teams that keep everything moving.We talk about how AI is flattening hierarchies, what it means for how brands are organised, and why most of the value in automation will come from fixing the low-value work that slows good people down. We also get into how this connects to Factory's Internal and External AI framing, where the real opportunities live, and what it means for leadership and culture inside consumer brands.If you're thinking about how AI changes the structure, not just the strategy, of how your business operates, this one's for you.Enjoy the episode.Checkout Factory here.Sign up to our newsletter here.

In this week's chilling episode, Cheryl and Nikki dive into one of Britain's most infamous paranormal cases — The Enfield Haunting.In 1977, a seemingly ordinary council house in Enfield, North London, became the centre of a supernatural storm. Furniture flew, toys hurled themselves across rooms, and a family of four were tormented by a mischievous — and sometimes malicious — poltergeist. But was this the work of the paranormal, or something far more human?Join Cheryl and Nikki as they unpick the chaos that gripped the nation — from the terrified Hodgson family to the investigators from the Society for Psychical Research who risked their reputations chasing ghosts. Along the way, they'll separate fact from fiction, uncover how The Conjuring 2 turned this haunting into Hollywood legend, and ask the ultimate question: was Enfield really haunted, or just the perfect media storm?Expect eerie happenings, questionable recordings, and a few very British ghosts of Christmas past…

In the summer of 1977, single mother Margaret Hodgson called the police to her council estate apartment in Enfield, London to report that she and her two daughters, Janet and Peggy, had seen furniture move in the apartment and were hearing strange noises coming from within the walls. That simple albeit unusual call set in motion a chain of events that would thrust the unassuming Hodgson family into the center of a debate about the existence of the supernatural and forever associate them with one of England's most notorious paranormal cases, the Enfield poltergeist.Over the course of roughly eighteen months, the family claimed they were subjected to a variety of supernatural harassment that ranged from moving furniture and knocking in the walls to disembodied voices and even involuntary levitation. Soon after the report was made to the police, the story attracted a variety of news outlets and paranormal investigators, all determined to either prove the case a genuine poltergeist or a hoax perpetrated by two adolescent attention-seeking girls.Nearly fifty years later, the case remains controversial among skeptics and believers, all of whom want to know what exactly did happen in the Hodgson's apartment and who—or what—is to blame for the disturbances.Thank you to the Amazing Dave White (of BRING ME THE AXE PODCAST) for research and writing assistance! ReferencesAmin, Meghna. 2022.

In the late 1970s, a quiet suburban home in Enfield, London, belonging to the Hodgson family got a new roommate—a poltergeist. The entity seemed to latch on to their 11-year-old daughter, Janet, who experienced levitation, violent attacks, and had strange voices speak through her. The case was heavily investigated by paranormal researchers who agree an evil spirit was present, but some think there's another explanation regarding Janet's supernatural abilities. For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/haunted-enfield-poltergeistSo Supernatural is an audiochuck and Crime House production.
