Podcast appearances and mentions of Holland Park

Ab17 - der tägliche Podcast mit Kathrin und Tommy Wosch. Montag bis Freitag. Morgens und AbendsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ab17podcastWhatsapp: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaBSCV98kyyQceNs4A1ISchreib uns: kontakt@diewoschs.deIn dieser Episode berichten Kathrin und Tommy aus ihrem Alltag und nehmen uns mit auf eine humorvolle Reise durch ihre Erlebnisse im „Holland Park“. Dabei geht es um Familienausflüge, den Wahnsinn solcher Freizeitanlagen und die Herausforderungen, die diese mit sich bringen. Sie sprechen über skurrile Beobachtungen, wie überfüllte Indoor-Spielplätze und fragwürdige Essensstände. Die beiden diskutieren auch ihre persönlichen Eindrücke von Eltern, die ihre Kinder dort betreuen, sowie über kulturelle Unterschiede und die Rolle von Nostalgie in solchen Freizeitparks. Auf amüsante Weise thematisieren sie typische Familienmomente und Konflikte, wie Kathrins Geburtstagsfeier mit den Kindern im „Königsraum“ des Parks und die verschiedenen Arten, wie Eltern mit der Kindererziehung umgehen. Darüber hinaus wird Tommy in dieser Episode sehr persönlich und erzählt von seinen Ängsten in solchen Umgebungen. Kathrin hält dagegen und betont die Vorteile solcher Besuche, auch wenn diese oft chaotisch verlaufen.Weiterhin streifen die beiden Themen wie die richtige Organisation von Kindergeburtstagen, seltsame Begegnungen mit anderen Eltern und die unerwarteten Herausforderungen, die Freizeitparks mit sich bringen. Tommy reflektiert seine eigenen Ängste und Paranoia und beschreibt, wie er von einem besorgten Vater zu einem hilfsbereiten Retter wird, als er einem verlorenen Kind zur Hilfe kommt. Auch das Thema Autos wird angesprochen, insbesondere als Tommy sich über einen Kratzer in seinem neuen Fahrzeug aufregt. Humorvoll, ehrlich und manchmal auch bissig, ist dies eine Folge, die einen Einblick in das tägliche Chaos einer Familie gibt, die versucht, zwischen Kindererziehung, Partnerschaft und Freizeitgestaltung zu balancieren.Inhalt00:00:00 Freitag, 4.

I denne jubilæums-udgave markerer "Elsker The Beatles" de 100 første episoder. Og den er ovenikøbet udsendt på Ringo Starrs fødselsdag. Vi tager på en rejse til en fantastisk dag i London, der byder på besøg på "The National Portrait Gallery", der netop er genåbnet med udstillingen "Paul McCartney: Photographs 1963-64: Eyes of the Storm". Udstillingen der viser billeder fra Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington og Miami, da Beatlemania indtog verden. Jacob Poul Skoubo så udstillingen i de samme dage, så han sættes stævne på en hyggelig pub, for at vende de fine billeder - og så fortæller Jacob om, hvor tæt han var på at sige hej til Paul McCartney i et "A Hard Day´s Night"-agtigt raid. Efterfølgende bevæger vi os til Holland Park nær Notting Hill, hvor en fremragende eftermiddag blev sat i scene af Chris Shaw, vært for den lige så fremragende podcast "I Am The Eggpod. I et skønt operahus fik vi to afdelinger af et show - først med et panel, hvor David Quantick, Stuart Maconie og Samira Ahmed talte, diskuterede og grinede The Beatles. Dernæst i et sæt hvor Mark Lewisohn tog os igennem 1.juli i Beatles-historien, fra 1960-69. I de smukke omgivelser blev det også til inteviews med Beatles Youtuber, Andrew Dixon, Teatles-ansvarlig, Huw og med Egg Pod vært, Chris Shaw. Episoden afrundes, efter hjemkomst til Danmark, med opklaring af et sælsomt, personligt Beatles mysterie. Happy Hundred og god fornøjelse!

Melissa Benn comes from a long line of outspoken campaigners and prominent Parliamentarians. She was educated at Holland Park comprehensive and the London School of Economics where she graduated with a First in History, the first woman in a generation to do so. Melissa's journalism has appeared in a wide range of publications, including the Independent, the Times, Public Finance, Marxism Today, London Review of Books, Cosmopolitan and the Financial Times. She is a regular contributor to the Guardian, the New Statesman, and Teach Secondary magazine, where she writes a regular column. Melissa has published nine books, including two novels. In her writing on education, Melissa has consistently tried to tackle contemporary myths about state education and to set out the case for a more equal system. With Fiona Millar she co-authored 'A Comprehensive Future: Quality and Equality For All Our Children', an influential pamphlet that challenged the drift towards the marketisation of state education within the then New Labour government and made the case for strong, non-selective, community schools. This was followed by School Wars: The Battle for Britain's Education, described by the Observer as ‘a tremendous book.In it, Melissa sketched the history of, and struggles around, secondary education from the post-war period onward and offered a critique of the education policies of successive governments, in particular the Coalition government of 2010-2015. With Janet Downs, she co-authored, 'The Truth About Our Schools: Exposing the Myths, Exploring the Evidence', which tackled some increasingly prevalent and pernicious myths about state education. Caroline Lucas MP described it as a ‘hugely important book that should be required reading for every Education Secretary.' In Life Lessons, Melissa set out the Case for a National Education Service, and this book was described by Guardian Education columnist Fiona Millar as ‘an eloquent and much needed blueprint for reform when radical ideas are in short supply.' I find Melissa's writing to be a uniquely refreshing contribution to the education debate. I recommend catching up on Melissa's many excellent columns in the publications listed earlier. And her book School Wars, which remains incredibly relevant, 12 years after publication, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand why we have the weird, patchwork education system that we have.

Today on Monday Mile we head to Holland Park for a stroll with a lady who has been a pioneer in the Pitlane, becoming the first woman to take on the main anchor role in F1 on British TV - it is Lee McKenzie! She's worked across some of the most prestigious events in sport, Olympics , Paralympics , Wimbledon and the Rugby World Cup . She's the consummate professional, one of the greats and delivers when it really counts even under pressure and streaming live into our living rooms.  We have a great conversation about what makes a good broadcaster.  We discuss whether journalism really deserves the paraphrase "dirty word" and as to whether broadcasters are out there to “nail someone to the masts”.  We also chat about how F1 is considered to be an elite profession, and how the athlete's attitudes towards the sport has influenced Lee's professionalism towards her job as a broadcaster - "success and failure is measured by a thousandth of a second" . We discuss her relationship with the outdoors and the balance it brings, and how she juggles life on the road, broadcasting across multisport events and adapting to different time zones and prepping for one event whilst she's still mid-broadcast at another. We also talk about the importance of being “good” at the job, and not focusing on what other people might think, and whether it's true if you put everything into something it leaves no room for criticism. However, Lee does open up about trolling and the effects that can have on her relationship with body image. It's a great listen, and as someone who is a role model to me, I really enjoyed this walk and talk with Lee. Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on? Each episode drops on a Monday morning as a bitesize piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week. Sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes, entrepreneurs, doctors, authors and broadcasters ' secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits. Head over to IG to watch the visuals of our episode and what we get up to on our Monday Mile. https://www.instagram.com/aimee_fuller/ Filmed by Jon Moy

This week we're talking about two of London's most magnificent Victorian houses, Leighton House and Sambourne House in Holland Park. Leighton House, studio-home of the eminent Victorian artist Frederic Lord Leighton, has just reopened after an £8 million redevelopment along with nearby Sambourne House, the family home of Punch cartoonist Edward Linley Sambourne. We talk to Daniel Robbins, Senior Curator of both houses and to the Iranian artist Shahrzad Gaffari, who's hand-painted an 11-foot high textured mural around the curved wall of Leighton House's brand new helical staircase. Shahrzad tells us that her mural is inspired by the 13th Century poet Rumi and, with its bright turquoise motifs which echo the tiles in the Arab Hall, the work represents the present and future of the house, continuing to deepen our knowledge of and understanding of eastern culture. A new exhibition space in Leighton House is now showcasing the work of the Holland Park Circle of artists, to which Lord Leighton belonged, while the new basement has a display of Leighton's exquisite drawings – there are 700 belonging to the house. You can see Leighton's studio exactly as it would have been, as well as the Arab Hall and the other public areas, full of mosaics, tiles, pottery and artefacts which he brought back from his travels in Egypt, Turkey and Syria. Walking into Sambourne House is to be fully immersed in a Victorian family home while Leighton House is now a lively destination and gathering point with a new café overlooking the garden. Both are well worth a visit so listen in to hear about what's in store at both of these great historic homes.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Konstantin Benkovich (@benkovich) Artworks of Benkovich are in the permanent museum collections and in many private collections around the globe. Together with Pussy Riot and a number of other well-known Russian artists, he participated in the group exhibition “Russian Post-Soviet Actionism” at the Saatchi Art Gallery in London in 2017, various public projects worldwide, exhibitions in the Multimedia Art Museum in Moscow (2021) and the exhibition “Millennials in Contemporary Russian Art” running today in the Russian State Museum in Saint-Petersburg.His works deal with freedom and unfreedom through the symbols and materiality of his sculptures.The reconsidered, reinvented symbols turn into new – critical, political, desacralized ones.The most dominant material in his works are steel bars which he cuts and welds into grids. The rebar and steel in Russia is the synonym of unfreedom. The rebar is an absolute symbol of aggression.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Charlotte Colbert (@colbertcharlotte) Language, psychoanalysis, socio-political constructions of gender and identity are at the heart of Colbert's practice. Spanning film, photography, ceramics, and sculpture, she questions narrative structures and storytelling, weaving surreal and fantastical mise en scene in a documentarian approach to characters, figures, and people. Fiction becomes a way to approach the truth and the most intimate emotions. Straddling the fine line between fine art and film, Colbert's films have strong philosophical undertones and often play on questions of time, space and identity, often dark and surreal with a hint of comedy.​Selected Shows: Mademoiselle, CRAC Centre Regional d Art Contemporain Occitanie, Sete, France (2018); From Selfie to Self Expression, Saatchi Gallery, London, UK (2017), Daydreaming with Stanely Kubrick; Guests V&A Museum of Childhood, London, UK; Istanbul International Art fair; Art Basel; Small is Beautiful, Flowers Gallery; Dancing at the edge of the World, Sara Zanin, Rome; Birth, TJ Boulting.

In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Maya Sanbar (@mayasanbar) Maya is an Artist and Filmmaker. Her work in both moving image and installation is centred on the art of storytelling. Footsteps on the Wind is her directorial debut in the narrative and animation world. Her experience is varied, her artworks being often collaborative and enabling of others adding their voices to a central theme. In relation to this film, aside from her own family refugee history, she sought out the depth of emotional truth within refugee stories via therapy workshops, ensuring that this is a film about refugees, told by refugees, for refugees and the general public young and old. As a multimedia artist, her work has been exhibited internationally, notably installations at Shoreditch Town Hall in London “Waiting” 2015, the Rubin Museum of Art in New York City “Alex in Wonderland” scented experience (2016), and at the Berlin Wall on the 30th anniversary of its fall “Chasing the Light” (2019), “Words on the Hill” at the Coronet Theatre in London (2020). Her film production credits include 360 immersion visits to artist studios and documentaries. Sanbar is fluent in 6 languages and passionate about crossing cultural boundaries using words with images to bring about a fresh point of view.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Lise Bouissière (@lisebouissiere) Lise Bouissière is a Franco-British artist. She graduated from Central Saint Martins School (London) and Villa Arson (Nice, France). Bouissière is a Royal Society of Sculptors member. Over the past ten years, she has shown in solo and group shows across the United Kingdom and Italy, including at The Royal Society of Sculptors (2021), Aora Space (2021), Koppel Exchange Project (2020 and 2021), The Crypt Gallery (2021), Gerald Moore Gallery (2020), The Smallest Gallery in Soho (2019), Villa Arson (2014), Palais de Tokyo (2016). Bouissière also took part in Venice land Biennale (2019) and Monaco's music festival (2011). Bouissiere's practice focuses on the optimisation of space and the use of materials. Through a distinct construction of ideas, found materials are played with to create minimalist and honest compositions. Bouissière's structures reveal a memory, a current state or a hidden side of a place with the elements that surround it. In many cases, the place Bouissière constructs her art is transformed like a mental space, offering the viewer a large panel of interpretations. Lise Bouissière lives and works in London.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Kipling Hunt (@kipling_hunt) Born in London, Hunt has also lived in Barcelona, Birmingham and in semi-rural isolation on the borders of Wales. Kipling makes fine art pieces in ceramic, in paint, in print, in film, or in fact any medium most able to deliver each concept in question with assurance and panache. Kipling has also worked for over a decade in the Secondary Art Market, as a General Specialist in Fine Art Paintings, Prints and Sculpture. This gave Hunt great insight and a comprehensive knowledge of artists both practicing and those now deceased; and a working blueprint of what goes on behind the scenes to oil the wheels of the global art market.

Imagine the architect of your new house insisting that you build it in a style that was fashionable six hundred years ago. That's precisely what was happening in nineteenth-century Britain in what was called the Battle of the Styles. It's hard to imagine that anyone who walked past Tower House in London's Holland Park ever thought it was entirely normal, even in the 1870s when it was built. It's the work of William Burges, an architect whose output was small but significant, and it represents a high point in the Gothic Revival.

All the world's great cities have some things in common and fantastic food is one of them. But what happens if a city doesn't have a chief restaurant critic? Besha Rodell, the recently appointed Chief Restaurant Critic for The Age and Good Weekend discusses the role of a great food writer and why she prefers to remain anonymous. Then it's time to visit Sydney's newest herbarium at the Australian Botanic Garden in Mount Annan. Denise Ora, Chief Executive of the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust, and Brett Summerell, Director Research and Chief Botanist, join Tim Entwisle for an amble through the new facility and discuss why they're critical to conserving plants and fighting climate change. Annie and Jonathan just can't get enough of the humble spud. In the latest edition of Kitchen Rudimental, Annie Smithers teaches Jonathan how to master a Potato Terrine with Gruyère. And finally, Colin Bisset explores the Tower House in London's Holland Park. It's the work of William Burges, an architect whose small but significant output represents a high point in the Gothic Revival. This is everything that minimalism is not.

DIANA CRAWSHAW's countercultural journey took her from a small north Yorkshire town to the centre of swinging London and the glamour of St Tropez; from selling, designing and making clothes in 60s London's hippest boutiques Lord Kitchener's Valet, Mr Freedom and Paradise Garage,to reading palms at the Holland Park office of Richard Branson.   One of our most modest and delightful guests, Diana tells tales of her times with the designers that dressed the great the good and the glitterati, including David Hockney, Picasso, Rock Hudson, The Beatles, Elton John and Freddie Mercury. We hear how she set out to find herself, how she made Dennis Hopper cry and how she fixed Raquel Welch's hot pants.   Diana reads palms at Wilde Ones in the Kings Road https://wildeones.com/tarot-readings/   Thanks to Paul Gorman http://www.paulgormanis.com   ---------- Get the Bureau's Newsletter   Support our wild endeavours   The Bureau of Lost Culture Home   Go on - follow, rate and review us - or be in touch directly bureauoflostculture@gmail.com We'd love to hear from you. -------------  

In today's episode, I head to Holland Park in West London to meet a good friend of mine, Laura Crane - former British Surfing champion and now owner of Stryve Wellness retreats.  We discuss the importance of being present,  how essential it is to take time away from the screen, and "living life to the max!" Laura has had quite the journey from appearing in the Love Island Villa in 2018 and in more recent times, her change in relationship with both food and exercise. We also have a very open and honest conversation around the pressures associated with social media and how she has managed to find a balance. It's a great episode and just a really genuine conversation between two friends. Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on? Each episode drops on a Monday morning and plays out in real time. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week.  Dropping every Monday as a bitesize piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it - sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes' secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.  Head over to IG to watch the visuals of our episode and what we get up to on our Monday Mile. https://www.instagram.com/aimee_fuller/   Filmed and Edited by Jack Holmes. 

The fourth and last guest at our sun-roasted live event in Holland Park on July 17 was the ever-supercharged Danny Baker. Straw-hatted, drink-toting and delighted audience members were treated to a series of superb comic monologues which featured his idea for a Beatles movie, the South London promoter who locked himself in a portakabin to evade the wrath of his acts and a magnificent riff about how the music-hall legend Bud Flanagan conned his way onto an ocean liner (aged 14) and joined a travelling show in America. @prodnose Tour dates with Bob Harris …https://www.ents24.com/uk/tour-dates/danny-baker Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
