A Rosie On The House ReplayThis episode explores practical, low-cost strategies for reusing household gray water to irrigate landscapes. Brad Lancaster shares decades of experience designing regenerative water systems in dryland environments, emphasizing simple gravity-fed solutions over complex infrastructure. The conversation highlights how homeowners can dramatically reduce water use by “stacking functions” and capturing water already on-site. By pairing gray water with rainwater harvesting, households can meet most or all of their irrigation needs. Brad Lancaster runs a successful permaculture consulting design and education business in Tucson, Arizona. He's focused on integrated and sustainable approaches to landscape design, planning and living. Growing up in a dryland environment, water harvesting has long been one of his specialties and a true passion. He's the author of the Permaculture Bible for Water Harvesting, Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond, Volumes One and Two. And he has just released new color versions, revised and expanded of both of them.Key TopicsGray water (definition and household sources)Difference between gray water and black waterBrad Lancaster (water harvesting expert)Rainwater harvesting systemsGravity-fed irrigation designSoil as a living filtration systemMulch basins and infiltration strategiesLaundry-to-landscape systemsOutdoor shower gray water reuseWater conservation in dryland climatesArizona gray water regulations (13 guidelines)Soap and detergent impacts (salt vs liquid)Planting water before plants (design philosophy)Evapotranspiration and passive coolingKey Questions AnsweredWhat is gray water and how much of household water does it represent?Gray water is lightly used water from showers, sinks, bathtubs, and washing machines. It represents a significant portion of household water use—nearly equal to outdoor irrigation demand—making it a major opportunity for reuse.Is gray water safe to use in the landscape?Yes, when basic guidelines are followed. Avoid toxins, prevent pooling, and distribute water across multiple areas. Soil biology naturally filters the water, making it safe for fruit trees and many landscape plants.How can homeowners start using gray water cheaply and easily?Simple systems like redirecting a washing machine hose or using an outdoor shower can send water directly to plants using gravity. No pumps, tanks, or complex filtration systems are needed.What soaps and products should be used with gray water systems?Liquid soaps are preferred over powdered detergents because they contain fewer salt-based fillers. Avoid chlorine bleach and opt for hydrogen peroxide alternatives to protect soil health.Why shouldn't gray water be stored in tanks?Stored gray water quickly turns septic due to organic matter, creating odor and health issues. It's best used immediately by directing it into soil systems.How does combining gray water and rainwater maximize impact?Together, they can meet nearly all irrigation needs for a landscape, especially with low-water-use plants. This reduces reliance on municipal water and increases resilience.What does “plant the water first” mean?Design the landscape to capture and infiltrate water using basins and contours before planting. This ensures plants receive consistent moisture naturally.Where should plants be placed in a water-harvesting landscape?Higher water-use plants should be placed near water sources like roofs or gray water outlets. Trees should be positioned for shade and cooling benefits, especially on east and west sides of buildings.Episode HighlightsGray water is “perennial water”—it flows daily as long as you live in your homeYou've already paid for this water—reuse it instead of sending it to the sewerA simple laundry system can irrigate multiple trees by rotating a drain hoseSoil acts as a living sponge and filter, outperforming mechanical systemsOutdoor showers can double as irrigation systems and cooling zones for animalsAvoid overcomplication—gravity systems are cheaper, more reliable, and effectiveCapturing both rainwater and gray water can eliminate most irrigation needsWater harvesting landscapes create cooler microclimates and support biodiversityCalls to Action & ResourcesBrad Lancaster Resources — https://www.harvestingrainwater.comYouTube Channel — Search “Brad Lancaster water harvesting”Books — Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond (Volumes 1 & 2)Visit www.UrbanFarm.org/980 for the show notes and links on this episode!Need a little bit of advice or just a feedback on your design for your yard or garden?The Urban Farm Team is offering consults over the phone or zoom.

Everyone is talking about the new Tom Bower book on Meghan and Harry - and Phil is no exception. But how much of it is real, and how much is simply ‘deranged gossip', as one critic called it.

Starting a business, is how you create your own economy in 2026. This is really critical, and I'm not here to scare anyone. I don't want to talk about politics, none of that. I'm just saying like the reality is, there is this financial gap. 55% of women over 50 say they don't have enough saved for retirement. Women live longer, they earn less over a lifetime, and they take more career breaks. The average Social Security check is not going to cover basic expenses for most people. I'll just tell you if you've got this inkling like I need to be doing something else, waiting is going to be the most expensive decision you can make.But here's what I discovered. Most of the women who are thriving, they're looking to create additional income streams. They're not dependent on one paycheck or what they have in retirement accounts or even on Social Security.

Chronic levels of stress, be it from food, relationships, physical exertion, thought patterns, or the environment, all tax the adrenal glands. Karen tells us how and why this happens. With taxed adrenals we are left feeling burnt out and reach for coffee and stimulants, forcing us to push past our bodies need to rest. Luis and Karen talk about cultural conditioning around resting in the age of a DO MORE culture. They also address cancer, viruses, and chronic fatigue.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore why so many first responders feel calm (Amazon Affiliate), focused, and regulated on the job—but tense, irritable, and on high alert at home. Your nervous system was trained to detect threat, anticipate danger, and stay ready to respond. The problem is, it doesn't automatically shut off when the uniform comes off. What keeps you alive on the street can quietly strain your marriage, your parenting, and your sense of peace. This episode unpacks how chronic hypervigilance rewires the brain, why safety can feel suspicious, and how living in "always on" mode impacts relationships and emotional health.
Phil is very much occupied by Australia this week. He starts by sharing his thoughts on a recent boycott of an important Writer's Festival in Adelaide because of a row about open support for Hamas and its murderous actions on 7/10. The boycott was by mostly left-of-centre wing writers and broadcasters, some of whom Phil has worked with and knows well. He doesn't think they were right!Then - in the week that Prince Andrew finally leaves Royal Lodge - Phil turns to the state of the British royal family's relationships with Australia, in the company of lawyer, broadcaster and long-term royal observer Caroline Di Russo.From the rise and fall of republicanism through Australia's love affair with Diana Princess of Wales and then its (brief!) embrace of Prince Harry in his ‘Larkin Prince' phase, this is a fascinating convo (as they would say in Australia) about royalty, politics and culture down under.

Whether you are facing a misdemeanor or a serious felony, understanding your rights and the legal process is critical to protecting your future.Key Discussion PointsInteracting with Law Enforcement: If you are a potential defendant in an assault case, DeKoatz advises against communicating with the police at the scene. He emphasizes that officers are there to gather evidence rather than judge the situation. By explicitly stating you want to talk to a lawyer, you invoke your Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights, which legally requires police to stop questioning.Your Rights at Home: You are generally not required to answer the door for the police. However, DeKoatz notes that officers may enter without a warrant under "exigent circumstances," such as hearing yelling or suspecting an immediate safety threat.The Cooling-Off Period: Following an arrest, there is often a 30-day protective order attached to a bond. DeKoatz views this as a necessary cooling-off period and strongly advises against any direct or indirect communication with the other party to avoid picking up additional charges.Preserving Evidence: To build a strong defense, it is vital to preserve all digital evidence, including texts and emails from the other party. This information can be used to provide context to the prosecution and show that an alleged victim's story may be inconsistent.Levels of Assault Charges:Simple Assault: Generally handled in misdemeanor courts.Third-Degree Felony: Charges escalate significantly if "impeding breath" or choking is alleged.Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon: This involves putting someone in fear of death or serious injury with a weapon, such as a knife or gun, often seen in high-conflict domestic disputes or road rage incidents.Self-Defense in Texas: DeKoatz frequently handles cases where clients were simply defending themselves. In these instances, the court uses both a subjective and objective standard to determine if a reasonable person in the defendant's shoes would have felt the need to use force.The Path to Resolution: The firm's goal is always to protect the client's record and prevent a single mistake from defining their life. While some cases go to trial, many are resolved through deferred supervision or dismissals based on the history of the parties and the strength of the evidence.Local Court InformationDomestic violence and assault cases in El Paso are typically handled in the "big glass building" located on San Antonio Street. Misdemeanor courts are generally located on the 7th and 8th floors, while felony charges are heard in the District Courts.Contact InformationIf you are in need of legal assistance for an assault or domestic violence matter, you can reach the Carl DeKoatz at:FIRM: Carl DeKoatz Law FirmAddress: 718 Myrtle Ave, El Paso, TX 79901Phone: (915) 577-0913Website: HTTPS://DeKoatzLaw.com

Have you ever noticed that one foot is often slightly bigger than the other? It sounds odd, but it's extremely common — and there's a clear biological reason for it. This episode begins with why it happens, which foot is usually larger, and what it means for comfort and health. https://www.feetbypody.com/blog/is-it-normal-for-one-foot-to-be-bigger-than-the-other/ The Moon has been hanging over our heads for billions of years — but why is it there at all? Where did it come from? Why doesn't it crash into Earth? And what would life be like if the Moon never existed? Rebecca Boyle joins me to explore how Earth's closest companion shaped our planet, influenced evolution, and made life as we know it possible. Rebecca is a columnist at Atlas Obscura, a contributor to Scientific American, The New York Times, Popular Science, and Smithsonian Air & Space, and author of Our Moon: How Earth's Celestial Companion Transformed the Planet, Guided Evolution, and Made Us Who We Are. (https://amzn.to/3O1xn4s). Most people don't enjoy cleaning — but some people absolutely love it. And when they do, they tend to discover remarkably effective (and sometimes surprising) ways to do it better. You're about to meet Patric Richardson, known as The Laundry Guy on HGTV and Discovery+. He shares smart, unconventional cleaning tips that will change how you do laundry — including why cheap vodka might become your new secret weapon. Patric is author of House Love: A Joyful Guide to Cleaning, Organizing, and Loving the Home You're In (https://amzn.to/3vidAao).

The problem isn't motivation; it's how goals are set. We wrap up with a smarter way to create resolutions that actually last, using proven strategies that make success far more likely.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton unpack a silent but powerful burnout driver in law enforcement — perfectionism (Amazon Affiliate). From writing flawless reports… to never missing a detail… to making split-second decisions under pressure… to constantly being evaluated by body cams, supervisors, and public opinion… Police work breeds a mindset where mistakes feel unacceptable — even when they're human. And that relentless pursuit of "never good enough" slowly erodes confidence, mental health, and home life. This episode explores how perfectionism shows up in police work, why it's so damaging, and how officers can pursue excellence without destroying themselves in the process.
During WW2, Allied propaganda portrayed Adolf Hitler as….er…lacking in certain areas of male physique. Recently, the world's leading forensic DNA scientists have extracted Hitler's genetic material from an old bloodstain - and discovered some remarkable things about his health, his mental state and, yes, the likely state of his genitals. Historian Guy Waters - an expert on the Nazis - joins Phil to explore what all of this means for our understanding of one of history's greatest villains.

In this second part of Phil's conversation with investigative writer Andy Webb, they explore perhaps the most troubling part of this saga - a BBC cover up that involved some of the most senior figures in British broadcasting and which kept the truth about this interview hidden for almost 30 years. It's a story that reflects very badly on the BBC and the UK ‘establishment', in which brave whistle blowers are punished, time serving hacks are promoted and Diana herself goes to her grave not knowing that she had been told numerous false stories about those closest to her. Andy even believes that her life may have been saved had she been told the truth in time. Phil worked with and knew many of the key players of this saga, including his former BBC colleague Martin Bashir, the Panorama team members who first raised the alarm about the interview and his friend Patrick Jephson.

When Diana, Princess of Wales sat down with BBC Panorama reporter Martin Bashir in November 1995 she shook the British monarchy and changed the course of her own life.Bashir obtained this interview by - allegedly - using forged bank statements and telling Diana a series of lurid stories about her husband getting their nanny pregnant, plans to have her killed, the imminent death of the Queen and the bribery of her key staff. Allegations about how this interview was secured triggered a crisis inside the BBC, a long cover up, a judge led inquiry and then - finally - an unprecedented BBC apology along with compensation payments to the many people damaged along the way. These include whistle-blowing BBC journalists and Diana's own Private Secretary, Patrick Jephson. Writer Andy Webb has spent decades investigating this story and is the main reason it ever came to public knowledge. His new book - DIANARAMA - is the full and definitive account of what happened, and it's packed with shocking new details. Phil worked with and knew many of the key players of this saga, including his former BBC colleague Martin Bashir, the Panorama team members who first raised the alarm about the interview and his friend Patrick Jephson.

For more than 100 episodes, AND/BOTH has shared conversations with women navigating identity, care, and capacity — and this week, the conversation widens.In this episode, I sit down with Michael Perry, founder and CEO of Maple, to talk about what it means to be part of what he calls “the transition generation” — a time when fathers are learning to show up differently, families are renegotiating what partnership looks like, and the systems that support us are still catching up.Michael is a father of two, a husband, and a founder who's building technology designed to make the invisible work of family visible, to help parents collaborate better, share responsibilities, and stay connected in the chaos.We talk about what's shifting in modern parenthood, what's still broken, and how we can bring more empathy, participation, and grace into our homes, without turning our families into another project to manage.
After updating on the latest scandals to shake British politics, Phil returns to the greatest royal story of the decade - the fall of (ex)Prince Andrew. Joining him this special double episode is Shauna Kay from The Vintage Read. Phil and Shauna jointly reviewed Virginia Giuffre's autobiography last week - and there are some matters outstanding!Shauna and Phil discuss the latest news and allegations about Andrew, Epstein, Maxwell and - indeed - Giuffre herself.

Phil is back from Australia and will be certain to share a few stories and photos.He's returned to find Britain's Labour government beset with scandals old and new - about grooming gangs, the influence of China on espionage cases and on the shadowy funding of Keir Starmer's own election campaign. What's going on?But the main story of the week is the continuing saga of Prince Andrew's connection to the Epstein affair, thrown into new relief by the publication of Virginia Giuffrie's powerful and shocking book NOBODY'S GIRL. It contains powerful allegations about Prince Andrew and other men - but (to the disappointment of some) is rather generous towards Donald Trump. All of this is running in parallel with continuing pressure on the Trump administration to publish everything it knows about the activities of Jeffrey Epstein. And the great expert on that story - our friend Clive Irving - joins Phil to reveal what's going on behind the scenes in Washington - and why it matters. You can buy the new book in our own bookshop - and all of Clive's books's too...https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/nobody-s-girl-virginia-roberts-giuffre/7971714?aid=12054&ean=9781529985245&There's information and extracts from Phil's new book here...https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/homeYou can order his book now on Amazon UK and Amazon Australia, India and NZ - and it is available all around the world as an e-book and an audio book...https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#We now have a Thank You button (next to the 'three dots') for small donations that help support our work.Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you'd like to get scandalous with?

Phil is in Australia this week, combining a holiday in some of his favourite cities with several talks about 1945 The Reckoning. But before he left he spoke to Roger Moorhouse about his fascinating new book on U Boats in WW2. Roger tells the story almost exclusively through the eyes of the German Navy, and the men who risked and very often lost their lives in submarines. It makes for a surprising new way of understanding a critical part of WW2.

This week Phil discusses how the British royals handled Donald Trump's recent visit and gets excited about his upcoming trip to Australia. Then historian Steve Tibble makes his second appearance on the podcast to talk about hi new book Assassins and Templars - a rip-roaring account of intrigue, conspiracy and murder in the bloody age of the Crusades. Or - as Phil puts it - history as if told by Quentin Tarantino.

What if your body wasn't broken, but brilliantly designed to survive?In today's episode, Luis speaks with Dr. Aimie Apigian — medical doctor, biochemist, and foster parent — about her new book The Biology of Trauma. After her foster son told her he was going to kill her, Dr. Apigian's search for answers revealed that trauma is rooted in biology, not weakness.Tune in as they discuss how trauma rewires the nervous system, why connection and standard attachment strategies often fail for trauma survivors, and how chronic stress becomes disease.Read more about Dr. Aimie and her work here: https://biologyoftrauma.com/Purchase her book: https://book.biologyoftrauma.com/homeYou can read more about, and register for, the live 7-week foundational course here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/course Sign up for our 6-month Embodied Relationships group, beginning in October: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/relationship-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/ Learn more about the self-led course here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/self-led-new Join the waitlist to pre-order Luis' book here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-book You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

This week Phil is delighted to welcome super well-informed writer Valentine Low back onto the podcast. Valentine has a new book out this week on the relationship between the royal family and British governments. It's full of juicy and revelatory stories - such as Queen Elizabeth intervening in the Scottish independence referendum, and a teenage Queen Camilla fighting off an attacker with a well aimed shoe!Before that Phil discusses Prince Harry's recent visit to Britain, his meeting with King Charles and rumours that he might make a film about his mother - including allegations about her death not being an accident - perhaps in competition with another film to be made by Prince William!

Hello to you Michelle, listening in lovely Victoria by the sea, BC, CanadaLand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for a story) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I am a story doula. I believe that stories are alive! They can follow you home, sit at your table, sleep in your bed. I also believe that stories seek us out so that right story comes to us just when we need it.Letters also tell stories. But what if the letters got lost? What happens to the stories they contain? Is there a home for lost letters and their stories? Indeed there is! Japan's Missing Post Office. Until the 1990s, Awashima Island in Japan's Seto Inland Sea had a flourishing port where sailors stopped to send and receive letters and telegrams. When the port closed the letters kept on coming to the now dead post office. In 2013 the artist Kubota Saya transformed the dead post office into Japan's Missing Post Office, a place where locals and visitors can come, read letters, and send letters to those departed souls who are beyond receiving the letter but not the thought.Japan's Missing Post Office receives 10 to 20 letters without addressees daily from those seeking closure, comfort, or simply a means to express emotions that have no other outlet. The stories in the letters are there to be read, cherished, and shared. There might be one waiting for you.Meanwhile, even if you are not able to visit the Missing Post Office yourself, you can send a letter to join the others. The address and links to articles about Japan's Missing Post Office are in the Episode Notes.Story Prompt: To whom would you like to express yourself in a letter and what would you say? Write that story and tell it out loud!

This episode might make you ruffle your feathers. If it does, it means I'm hitting a nerve that needs to be hit. Here's what I'm NOT going to do:Pretend that your sticker charts are helpingAct like time-outs are teaching life lessonsTell you that you just need the "right" punishment systemHere's what I AM going to do: Call out the fact that we've been duped. Manipulated. Sold a lie by two dudes in lab coats who literally thought your child's brain works the same as a pigeon's. I'm not even kidding. BF Skinner actually said: "Give me a child and I'll shape him into anything." Your child. A blank slate. Just waiting to be programmed with the right combination of rewards and punishments. Feeling sick yet? You should be. I used to be you. Consequence Queen. Time-out Tyrant. The mom who had read all the books and had all the systems. And then one day, it hits me: I'm using the EXACT SAME METHODS on my kids that I use on my poodle. Sit = treat. Come = treat. Stop barking = treat. Clean room = sticker. Do homework = screen time. Stop fighting = avoid punishment. The kicker? My dog was better trained than my kids. At least she came when I called.
Today on the podcast I speak with the wonderful Kelsie - who you may know as Maiden to Mother.Kelsie went through fertility challenges not once, but twice to build her family, and experienced so many losses along the way.But what makes Kelsie's story so interesting is that she chose to share her journey publicly through every step. And this brought her a combination of comfort & support, but also a huge amount of criticism.This is such a relatable conversation that you won't want to miss.By the time you finish listening, you'll find out: What Kelsie experienced on her journey to building her familyWhat she did to support herself along the wayWhat she feels she did differently to bring her babies homeYou can connect with Kelsie via Instagram.EMBRACE THE JOURNEY is back at this end of this month!Join me from Tuesday 29 July 2025 for 3 days of immersive yoga, breathwork & guided meditation for Fertility.Learn natural techniques to:Support your fertilityRegulate your nervous systemEase the anxiety of TTCOver the last few years I have taken thousands of people through this training & it is hands-down the most comprehensive mind-body fertility experience you'll find online.

Phil returns to the secret side of WW2 with the incredible story of Elzbieta Zawacka, the WW2 female resistance fighter known as Agent Zo. As writer Clare Mulley explains, she was the only woman to reach London from Warsaw during the Second World War as an emissary of the Polish Home Army command, and then in Britain she became the only woman to join the Polish elite Special Forces, known as the 'Silent Unseen'. She was secretly trained in the British countryside, and then the only female member of these SOE affiliated forces to be parachuted back behind enemy lines to Nazi-occupied Poland. There, whilst being hunted by the Gestapo who arrested her entire family, she took a leading role in the Warsaw Uprising and the liberation of Poland.After the war she was demobbed as one of the most highly decorated women in Polish history. Yet the Soviet-backed post-war Communist regime not only imprisoned her, but also ensured that her remarkable story remained hidden for over forty years.You can buy Claire's book here...https://www.amazon.com/Agent-Zo-Fearless-Resistance-Elzbieta/dp/1399601067There's also information and extracts from Phil's new book here...https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/homeYou can order his book now on Amazon UK and Amazon Australia, India and NZ - and it is available all around the world as an e-book and an audio book...https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#***We now have a Thank You button (next to the 'three dots') for small donations that help support our work***Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you'd like to get scandalous with?

Mok O'`Keeffe returns as co-host and, together with Phil, explores the complex subject of privacy with Tiffany Jenkins, whose new book Strangers and Intimates makes the case that we need to restore the idea of a truly private life back to the heart of our society. So when does the right to know over-rule our right to privacy?Ranging from the Reformation through Victorian melodramas and the struggles of Monica Lewinsky in the 1990s, then coming right up to date with the ‘privacy for me, exposure for thee' mantra of the celebrity tell-all (such as Meghan and Harry with Oprah Winfrey), this is a fascinating and wide ranging conversation.

Phil is joined again by the lawyer David Hooper, who has a new edition of his book Buying Silence coming out. David is one of the world's great campaigners for open, affordable justice and a fierce opponent of the practice - common in London - of the legal suppression of free speech. He acted for Vanity Fair in its long and bitter case against Mohamed Al Fayed, in the notorious Boris Berezovsky affair and in many other cases where money and power combine to suppress fair criticism and comment. Mixing colourful and often funny anecdotes of his legal battles with a clarion call for a new and better system, David is a most entertaining guest.You can buy his book at our own bookshop...https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/buying-silence-how-oligarchs-corporations-and-plutocrats-use-the-law-to-gag-their-critics-david-hooper/7539510?aid=12054&ean=9781785908316There's also information and extracts from Phil's new book here...https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/homeYou can order his book now on Amazon UK and Amazon India, Australia and New Zealand...https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#***We now have a Thank You button (next to the 'three dots') for small donations that help support our work***Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you'd like to get scandalous with?

Phil is joined by campaigner and writer Julie Bindel, the first person to investigate the grooming gang scandal that has so shocked Britain over the last two decades, and which seems to be continuing. A lesbian rights activist and life long campaigner against violence aimed at women and girls, Julie expected that politicians and state agencies would react quickly the the fact that gangs -mostly of men of Pakistani origin - were targeting, abusing and even ending the life of vulnerable children on a huge scale. But instead she ran into opposition and criticism.This is a story about people desperately wanting to look the other way, make excuses and dismiss a class of teenage girls, girls generally from the fringes of society (the kind she came into politics to help). Julie has been part of it right from the start and is still pressing for the accountability and openness that has been lacking for so long.

Our friend Gerald Posner returns to bring his unique insight into the story BEHIND the election of a new Pope - the overlapping financial and sexual scandals that have plagued the Vatican for many decades. Gerald explains why is has proved so hard to reform a famously opaque (and sometimes corrupt) institution - and how a Pope can pursue and punish senior officials caught with their hands in the till. Did you know that the Vatican has a legal system of its own, and a prison?But before that Phil reflects on an extraordinary week of royal news - with a toe-curling but fascinating interview from Meghan, which seemed calculated to stir up old animosities at the Palace, William basking in praise for his recent diplomatic efforts, and yet more talk of a possible reconciliation with Harry. But - with all her talk of ‘slaying dragons' - is Meghan the one standing in the way of that now?You can buy Gerald's book on the Vatican here at our own bookshop...https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/god-s-bankers-a-history-of-money-and-power-at-the-vatican-gerald-posner/3501574?aid=12054&ean=9781416576594There's also information and extracts from Phil's new book here...https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/homeYou can pre-order the book now on Amazon UK - and it will be available all around the world as an e-book and an audio book...https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#***We now have a Thank You button (next to the 'three dots') for small donations that help support our work***Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you'd like to get scandalous with?

This week we enter the demi-monde of the belle epoch to explore the strange and scandalous story of Absinthe, with writer Nina Studer. By the time it was banned in 1915, the famous 'green fairy' had become the green peril, feared for its connection with declining birth rates and its apparent capacity to induce degeneration, madness, and murderous rage in its consumers. As one of history's most notorious drinks, absinthe has been the subject of endless myth, scandal, and controversy. Just what we love on here.
