Today's conversation with photojournalist Claire Thomas takes a remarkable turn within just 20 minutes, shifting from casual beginnings to the profound realities of her work now. From those early travel ‘snaps' to capturing global crises, Claire's photography isn't just about documenting what she witnesses; it's about her genuine desire to share stories of resilience and hope. Working with clients like The New York Times, National Geographic, Amnesty International and UN agencies, her work is respected worldwide. Claire shows real humanity behind the lens and a commitment to her subjects that surpasses the act of photography alone. Also, on the show from the mailbag, Tim Bindner believes he's discovered his true creative WHY, Bob Shonkoff has insomnia but has turned it into a photographic opportunity, Lynn Fraser and David Higton are making proper pictures of proper snow, and Mark Krajnak is celebrating Hogmanay in a place far from Scottish shores. We'll also remind you of January's assignment set by the Art of Photography's Ted Forbes, plus there's some more information about April's ENCOUNTERS workshop and experience. Links to all guests and features will be on the showpage, my sincere thanks to MPB who sponsor this show and the Extra Milers without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

It's welcome back to the podcast after our Christmas and New Year break.We kick off by reflecting on how we both spent Hogmanay in our different ways, Lesley's island sojourn sounds affy braw.Much criticism has been levelled at BBC Scotland in particular for its pallid Hogmanay programming and Lesley takes the opportunity to compare the "official" media offerings with the work of the late Martyn Bennett and the Grit Orchestra. Suffice to say the authorised ones don't stand the comparison well.....It seems now is the time for a complete rethink on BBC and STV Hogmanay fare.We also discuss the cancellation of the official Edinburgh celebrations. Is it time for the capital to have a complete rethink ?Martyn Bennett's music and Danny MacAskill's cycling on the Cuillin - 81 million views!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ_IQS3VKjAGrit Orchestra gig - just two seats left!!https://tickets.glasgowlife.org.uk/34209/34210Lesley talks about her new, self filmed, series of short videos she's filming on her travels around Scotland.Lesley also reflects on the recent funeral of 'John the Bird' Chester on Eigg.https://x.com/LesleyRiddoch/status/1876598275693859210Anas Sarwar in his most recent speech talked about reducing the number of quangos but was somewhat less than comprehensive in how he would do this and even less specific on what a Labour administration would cut other than reducing the number of Health Boards.However is there a kernel of truth in Sarwar's statement?  Has the growth of quangos led to the creation, as Robin McAlpine said, of " A feudal system of nested fiefdoms each insulated from the transparency and accountability nominally radiating from the one above"?We also discuss Sarwar's appearance on Good Morning Scotland where Laura Maxwell grilled him on his stances on the 2 Child Benefit Cap, Winter Fuel Allowance, and the WASPI women. We also discuss Neil Mackay's recent Herald article analysing the growth in support for Scottish independence as UK Labour tanks in the polls.Is the SNP in a fit state to profit from this? Is it radical enough to get independence over the line?Listener Leslie Wilson got in touch after our chat on swimmer Duncan Scott to highlight the  television coverage-lack of- of Bruce Mouat's champion curling rink. We discuss. ★ Support this podcast ★

Get ready for a thrilling and hilarious journey with the RPGBOT.Podcast crew as they dive into the supernatural mysteries of Hogmanay! This episode is packed with tactical combat, questionable decisions, and a revenant who's not too thrilled about being disturbed. Follow along as Father Matthias and the gang navigate moral dilemmas, dark rituals, and the aftermath of their ghost-punching escapades—all while uncovering secrets buried deep in the town's twisted lore. Tune in for laughs, lore, and insights into the Vison RPG system as the hosts explore how to balance action, mystery, and character dynamics. Don't miss this wild ride into the world of RPGs! Summary Join the RPGBOT crew as they embark on an RPG adventure that combines supernatural horror, tactical combat, and just the right amount of chaos. In this episode, they introduce you to Hogmanay—a world where the mysteries are dark, the towns are small, and the revenants don't take kindly to trespassers. Father Matthias wakes up to a bad case of "Oh no, what did we do last night?" as the party deals with the emotional fallout of punching ghosts and burning stuff that probably wasn't theirs to begin with. Along the way, they dig up some literal skeletons (and maybe a few figurative ones) while learning the fine art of crafting plans that almost work. The hosts dive into the mechanics of the Vison RPG system, exploring how to balance intrigue and action without turning the game into a spreadsheet simulator. Whether you're here for the laughs, the lore, or just to figure out why a revenant might hold a grudge, this episode has something for every RPG fan. Expect tactical blunders, dark rituals, and a whole lot of banter as the team grapples with their characters' moral dilemmas, questionable strategies, and the realization that digging up the past might require actual shovels. Links Vaesen (affiliate link) Content from RPGBOT.net Vaesen & the Mythic Britain and Ireland Expansion - A Review RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes Zoe Franznick Reviews Free League's Vaesen Takeaways In this episode, the RPGBOT.Podcast delves into the storytelling and mechanics that make RPGs truly immersive. The hosts explore the fictional setting of Hogmanay, where strange happenings and supernatural mysteries provide a rich backdrop for character development and narrative depth. They emphasize how character dynamics drive the story, showcasing how moral choices, teamwork, and individual motivations shape the unfolding events. The revenant serves as a compelling antagonist, forcing the characters to grapple with trauma, mental struggles, and the consequences of their actions, both personal and supernatural. The hosts discuss the importance of humor as a coping mechanism and a way to balance the darker elements of storytelling. Tactical decision-making in combat becomes a key focus, with unique strategies and character abilities playing pivotal roles in determining outcomes. The narrative explores how rituals and traditions hold significant weight in confronting supernatural forces, while also illustrating the far-reaching and sometimes tragic consequences of player actions. The conversation touches on the need to balance mental and physical challenges in gameplay, allowing players to connect deeply with their characters' struggles and growth. They highlight the power of simple yet engaging mysteries, where players are encouraged to piece together clues and feel empowered in their investigations. By examining the complexities of the Vison RPG system, the hosts offer insights into how game mechanics can enhance the narrative experience, creating a cohesive and satisfying story. Ultimately, the episode underscores the importance of crafting thoughtful mysteries, fostering dynamic interactions, and providing opportunities for players to shine. Whether through uncovering hidden truths, restoring honor, or confronting fears, the characters' journey reflects the balance between light-heartedness and serious storytelling.

A wee puckly stories from today's P&J on hogmanay 2024. May I wish you all the very best of health and happiness for 2025. Thanks for listening, cheers, Allan

As the annual festive battle wears on to decide whether the family will spend this evening watching new spangly Content™ from a surfeit of modern entertainment platforms or the much-loved VHS tape of yuletide specials from yesteryear instead, it is a time of high resolution - it is a time of low resolution - and it is of course time to try and forget about making New Year resolutions altogether... The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is no exception to this televisual knife-edge, and has opted this Hogmanay to watch Bruce Forsyth and The Generation Game's New Year's Day episode from 1973. It's business as usual at Television Centre with a seasonal twist, which means the side-eyes, barbed comments, bickering and general failure to understand any of the rules means the programme should match the mood of your living room, perfectly. How arbitrary is the scoring system for vast swathes of this game? How axiomatic are Forsyth's helpful hints during its climactic round? And how apoplectic is Ernie going to be when he remembers in three days' time it was the headphones he wanted? Resolve to press Play every day (or until you forget, around January 4th) and find out... The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

On this week's episode we're heading about as northerly as England gets, to Northumberland - and Eleanor's telling her suitably slithery take on The Laidly Worm of Spindleston Heugh!We start off chatting about St Egwin's Day and traditional New Year's Eve celebrations, including Hogmanay, after which we bomb up the A1 to explored the history and folklore of Northumberland.We discuss all sorts, including the Northumberland and Border Ballad traditions, through which much of the county's folklore has survived, the county's clog-based dances, and plenty else, all before Eleanor presents us with a series of really delicious sounding things for once for this week's County Dish.When it comes to folklore, interspersed with some excerpts from next Saturday's Local Legends interview with beloved podcaster, folklorist and author Dr Icy Sedgwick, we talk about some of Northumberland's fae creatures, which range from terrifying to quite helpful, discuss bicycling ghosts, the treasures of Jingling Geordie's Hole, and much more besides.Then it's on to the main event: Eleanor's beautiful, frost-covered telling of "The Laidly Worm."We really hope you enjoy the episode, and we'll be back on Thursday with our new Three Ravens Bestiary episode about Elves, all before the full Local Legends chat with Icy comes out on Saturday!The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

A fresh New Year's Eve tradition at Stories of Scotland is the telling of spooky stories about Hogmanay. Jenny and Annie return with terrifying tales to haunt you all Hogmanay. First, Jenny welcomes us to travel to a smoky bar on the Isle of Mull for "The Queer Visit of Calum the Skipper," a chilling tale of a New Year's ghost with a twist. As the locals gather, reminiscing about Calum, a regular visitor, they're confronted with an unexpected and spine-tingling encounter. This story, unfolding on a stormy Hogmanay night, blends the warmth of community with the mystery of the supernatural.Next, Annie delves into the local newspaper archives of the Glasgow Weekly Herald for a ghostly narrative from 1866. This tale, "The Devil's Dungeon," sets the stage for an unforgettable Hogmanay at a farmhouse in the south of Scotland. Embark on a ghostly walk past haunted pools and eerie glens, leading to a terrifying encounter that will leave you questioning the line between reality and the supernatural.Stories of Scotland wishes all listeners a beautiful Hogmanay, and health, wealth, and happiness for 2024.

As another series of Love Scotland draws to a close, Jackie gathers two companions to discuss the “song that everybody sings”: Auld Lang Syne. With lyrics penned by Robert Burns in 1788, but origins dating back further, it is now a global anthem of friendship, celebration, yearning and nostalgia.  Mairi Campbell, a Scottish musician whose version of the song appeared in the Sex and the City film and who has since created a show inspired by Auld Lang Syne, is the first of Jackie's two guests. Also joining the conversation is Professor Gerard Carruthers, Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and the Francis Hutcheson Chair of Scottish Literature at the University of Glasgow.  With just a few weeks to go until people sing Auld Lang Syne on Hogmanay, Mairi and Gerard reveal their personal connections to the song and its words, how it came to international significance, and how it has evolved since its very early origins.  To find out more about Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, click here.

As Rex and Kirsty dismantle their Christmas trail wicker animal displays on the rewilding land, Kirsty notices one of the strategically stacked log piles has been disturbed. It's definitely smaller, and there are tyre tracks on the ground. It's clear there's a thief. Kirsty's keen to report it, but Rex thinks it would be low priority. Kirsty feels it could be the thin end of the wedge – they need to catch the thieves red-handed. Later they set up a wildlife camera, trained on a woodpile. Trap set, they agree to check back in a couple of days. Neil and Jazzer update Hannah on the details of last night's drunken confessions of Martyn Gibson. Jazzer discloses he's found the episode of the eighties dating show Martyn had been on. The girl choosing on the show was none other than Martyn's now wife, Pam. She'd detested him on site, rejecting his sleazy lines. Jazzer laughs that this doesn't tally with Martyn's account, in which they didn't go on a date due to ‘an unforeseen complication'. As they laugh at the episode a hungover Martyn approaches and Jazzer puts his phone away. Jazzer and Hannah make veiled references to the show, and Martyn realises they've seen it. Neil's quick to make use of their knowledge, and hints at the importance of maintaining staff loyalty and the dangers of material going viral. Before Martyn rushes off Neil secures a pledge of full-time work for Jazzer, and consultation on future cost-cutting suggestions. Jazzer's delighted, and can't wait to tell Tracy. He reckons he'll propose to her at Hogmanay.
