When 19-year-old Shana Grice reported her stalker to the police, they didn't just dismiss her—they fined her. Months later, she was found murdered in her bedroom, her throat slashed, and her home set on fire. The man responsible had a documented history of harassment, and Shana had done everything she could to be heard. In this episode, I tell the devastating story of Shana Grice—a young woman who was failed at every turn by the very system meant to protect her. I'll go over the red flags that were ignored, the chilling behavior of her killer, and how one police department's negligence became a national scandal. This is more than a true crime story. It's a warning.If you are in a situation where you are being stalked or harassed by a partner or a stranger you can contact:(In America) The Stalking Prevention, Awareness, and Resource Center (SPARC) at info@stalkingawareness.orgor call them at (202) 558-0040(In the UK) The National Stalking Help Line www.stalkinghelpline.orgor call them at 0808 802 0300Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a Promo for True Crime Connections PodcastWe honor deep healing while also making room for laughter, lightness, and moments of joy. Many guests say being on the show felt like chatting with a friend who truly understands. As a survivor of physical, financial, sexual, and psychological abuse, I know what it's like to feel silenced, devalued, and lost.

When 42 bodies buried near Liverpool Street Station in London were dug up as part of the works on Crossrail on 12th August, 2015, they were thought to be victims of the Great Plague of 1665. The incident shone a light on the cemetery in which they were buried - a pauper's grave at Bethlem Hospital; the institution more commonly known as ‘Bedlam'. From its establishment in 1247, Bedlam ‘lunatic asylum' quickly gained a reputation as a place that was pioneering - it was the only mental health facility in Britain - and fearsome, a place of stigma and spectacle. The public could pay to tour the facility and have pisspots thrown at them. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal how the abuses perpetrated at Bedlam still have echoes in modern-day surgery; look back at the first formal inspection of the premises; and consider why ‘Bedlam' has become so resonant in literature from Shakespeare to Dickens…  CONTENT WARNING: description of unsanitary conditions and patient abuse; reference to out-dated and pejorative language about mental health Further Reading: • ‘London Crossrail Dig At Bedlam Reveals 'Great Plague Victims' Were Buried In Thin Wooden Coffins' (HuffPost UK, 2015): https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/08/12/london-crossrail-excavators-skeletons-great-plague_n_7976488.html • ‘How Bethlem Royal Hospital Became The Notorious Bedlam Asylum' (All Thats Interesting, 2021): https://allthatsinteresting.com/bedlam • ‘Skeletons from Bedlam Hospital site uncovered by Crossrail' (Daily Mail, 2015): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obXO60iOyLM For bonus material and to support the show, visit Patreon.com/Retrospectors We'll be back on Monday!

In this week's ‘News Roundtable' episode, host Chris Wright joins Kevin Schofield, political editor of HuffPost UK, and Arieh Kovler, writer, political analyst and communications consultant.The episode begins by discussing the Russian army's recent atrocities committed in Bucha, Ukraine, and the extreme reporting within the Russian media. They delve into the impact that fake news and disinformation could have on the citizens of Russia and the long-lasting effects of seeing the war through Putin's eyes. Could Putin be prosecuted for war crimes in Ukraine?The conversation then moves to the privatisation of Channel 4, which has sparked a backlash from across the political spectrum. Is this an attempt to get political revenge over Channel 4's coverage of Brexit?The conversation then moves on to chew over the ‘sex and drugs scandal' tied to David Warburton, MP for Somerton, which parliamentary officials are investigating. The guests debate whether these scandals have a knock-on effect on the government in general or if they will get swept under the carpet.Together they also discuss Rishi Sunak's £100,000 donation to his old private school, Winchester College, and consider whether his wealth and background could raise issues for him, in his bid to become the next prime minister.Created & produced by Podcast Partners: www.podcastpartners.comSign up to receive updates by email when a new episode drops at: www.wrightonthenail.fm

Further, we discuss his relationships with the different managers, ranging from Van Gaal to Mourinho and Solskjær, as well as Sir Alex Ferguson's current influence and the weight of expectations tied to the Ferguson DNA, and most critically, the problematic advice players are currently receiving from so-called media experts and the reasons for this tone-deaf approach. Samuel Luckhurst (@samuelluckhurst) is the Chief Manchester United writer for the Manchester Evening News - the biggest regional football desk in the United Kingdom.

When you're not well, there are some things you don't want to hear…Have you tried yoga?Are you drinking enough water?Have to tried this supplement, or that wacky Goop craze?Well, today's guest, Lucy Pasha Robinson, the opinions editor at HuffPost UK, has had enough. Which is why she's the host of their new podcast series called Chronic. Chronic is an unashamedly anti-wellness podcast. And this is why I wanted Lucy to come on the show. There is a story that we tell about health. About being well, and being unwell. Of fixing things. Of battling things. Of fighting things. When the reality of the worlds of health and illness do not have a clear delineation. No one knows this better than people who live with chronic conditions. The kind of people Lucy talks to on the podcast. Chronic is challenging the narrative of a constant pursuit of wellness at all costs, and rather focuses on the intricacies, lessons and humour of living with a chronic illness. Welcome to Storyteller, a podcast about how, and why, we tell stories. We have quite a few new listeners join us since last week, so I wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'm your host, Lisa Golden, I'm a journalist and documentary filmmaker, obsessed with the intricacies of storytelling. So this podcast is a chance to hear from people from all fields and from all over the world. I've had poets, and journalists and performers on, but I've also had academics, scientists and even a Buddhist nun on. We're all storytellers, and this podcast is here to feed your curiosity, to spark ideas in your brain, get you thinking about the stories that are being told around you and maybe even the stories you want to tell yourself. I loved this conversation with Lucy because what I found so interesting about listening to people share their experiences on Chronic, is how much discomfort people who don't understand chronic illness, bring to those who have these conditions. So, what I mean is, these narratives and stories about striving for health, health as something that is achievable if you just put a bit of elbow grease into it and take your vitamins - these narratives and beliefs add an extra layer of pain for people already dealing with their own physical experiences. We also discuss the structure of the health system, why we're so uncomfortable with illness and Lucy shares her own experiences which led to her making Chronic in the first place.SHOW NOTES:Listen to Chronic hereFollow Lucy on Twitter hereSend Lisa your thoughts about the show onTwitter @lisajozi or @storytellerpod1Instagram @lisagoldenjozi or @storyteller_podOr drop her an email at storytellerpod@gmail.com for a shout on in the following week's episode!

Since Winston Churchill uttered the words “special relationship”, the British press and diplomats have been infatuated with how close the two countries are. Following the highpoint of the 90s where America and UK politicians developed policies, and wars, together the “special relationship” hasn’t been as distant as it is now, as both tread the path to protectionism and international isolationism. Will a Biden win mean a reset? Can Trump be trusted on making a trade deal?The FT’s Kiran Stacey and HuffPost UK’s Rachel Wearmouth join Graeme to discuss the “special relationship” and where it stands.

And HuffPost UK special correspondent Emma Youle — who is a previous winner of the Paul Foot award — describes how she and colleagues discovered that Kensington and Chelsea council made £129 million from selling property in the years leading up to the Grenfell fire tragedy - money that could have been spent on the tower’s renovation works which may have been fatally compromised by cost-cutting.

Anand Menon joins the HuffPost UK politics team as the Conservative candidates are whittled down to replace Theresa May. From 10 to three, who's coming out on top? Rory Stewart definitely won't be, losing his tie in the debate and then ultimately losing the tie to be leader. Yeah, we know that's laboured. But speaking of Labour, is Jeremy Corbyn about to back a second referendum?

We continue our look at women sports coaches as part of coaching week with tennis coach, Francesca Lewis. She fell in love with the game when she was just 8 years old, and she went on to compete in tournaments right across the world.

She now trains some of the best junior players in the world at Swansea's Regional Player Development Centre.Presenter: Jenni Murray Producer: Helen Fitzhenry

As Donald Trump rolled into town and Theresa May prepared to mosey on out of Westminster, her list of successors salivated at the thought of some time with Leader of the Free World. But would the praise of Trump prove help or hindrance at the ballot box?  Tom Tugendhat MP joins the HuffPost UK politics team in looking through the impact of Trump's state visit and what the candidates have to do to win the party favour. #trump #donald trump #theresa may #Britain #brexit #state visit

This week the HuffPost UK politics team sit down with Institute for Government Brexit expert, Maddy Thimont Jack and director of the UK In A Changing Europe think-tank, Anand Menon to discuss if the writing is on the wall for Theresa May's run as prime minister.

The HuffPost UK politics team sat down with Lib Dem MP Sir Ed Davey as Westminster salivates over leadership campaigns. Theresa May has been compelled to set out her departure date by the 1922 Committee, while Nigel Farage barrels across the country to prove that he can lead a party with ideas for all of Britain's interests. Meanwhile, after a successful Local Election campaign, Sir Vince Cable turns the air blue with a message for the European elections as he looks to leave the Lib Dems in a much healthier state than when he took over as leader. #ed davey #lib dem #leadership #vince cable #theresa may #brexit #politics #Britain

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at another breathtaking week for Britain staying in Europe. Nope, we're not talking the football, it's Theresa May trying to stay on the field deep into injury time as she seeks Labour's support on the wings for her beleaguered Brexit deal.   Will Tanner, Director of Tory think-tank Onward joins the team to see what's next, who's on the subs bench and how many more laboured football puns we can shoo into this week's talks. #politics #europe #brexit #theresa may #local elections #jeremy corbyn #football #jurgen klopp

Arj Singh, Paul Waugh and Rachel Wearmouth are joined by Labour MP on the HuffPost UK's politics podcast this week to talk Brexit showdowns, reaching across the political divide and the continual slow splintering of the two main parties. As Theresa May sat down for talks with Jeremy Corbyn, both leaders found that back on their home patches their successors are plotting. But can a compromise that pleases everyone be found? The last three years suggest not but Westminster isn't in the mood to do normalcy now. #Brexit #Theresa May #Jeremy Corbyn #Labour #Tories #ukpolitics #politics

Also, the BBC display their pay and there's a new doctor in the house. #doctor who #BBC #feminism #equality #equal pay #Love Island #Caroline Flack #Pay

The HuffPost UK politics team have packed the sun tan lotion and flip flops as Westminster breaks for summer recess but before that there's the little matter of Tory factions sniping at one another quietly through the medium of front page splashes. Over on Labour's side, Jeremy Corbyn's open discussion of policy means no one is quite sure when he means it or not, while Kensington Council continues to show how not to deal with constituents. #labour #Conservatives #jeremy Corbyn #Theresa May #Michael Gove #Grenfell Tower #Westminster #politics

HuffPost UK entertainment talk through the week's events. This week, Love Island has broken the last taboo on TV, well normalised it. The Really Wild Show is back, possibly, but should it? And will Ash ever like Noel Fielding. #Noel Fielding #Into It #Love Island #Really Wild Show #Cher #Chris Packham #Gladiators #Bake Off #GBBO #Great British Bake Off

The HuffPost UK entertainment team give their take on the hot topics of the week. This week, should spoilers be shared?

As the election rundown gathers pace, the HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. First of all, a leak from Labour HQ (or is it from closer to Corbyn?) sees the manifesto fall into the public domain. People seem to like the policies, but are they possible? Meanwhile, voters in Birmingham tell us they don't trust Corbyn to deliver much of anything but certainly not Brexit. Although, it hasn't been all bad for Jeremy, as his campaigning is starting to gain some visibility with voters. #jeremy corbyn #labour #manifesto #ukelection #theresa may #tim farron #vote #general election #ge2017 #conservatives

HuffPost UK entertainment team talk through what they're into this week. Was Zayn Malik right to be charitable? Does having sex on reality TV degrade? And who's got the best smackdown on Twitter? #rihanna #ex on the beach #towie #sexism #sex #television #zayn malik

HuffPost UK's politics team take a look at the week on the campaign trail, which saw our intrepid team go beyond the bubble to Slough where it's clear Brexit is still being fought on, Theresa May sees her opponents whispering on the continent and Jeremy Corbyn's team spy their enemies holding microphones, running talk shows and er...podcasts. #Theresa May #Jeremy Corbyn #Diane Abbott #europe #EU #tony blair #brexit #general election #ge2017

HuffPost UK's entertainment team meander through what's cutting it in their world. This week, biopics, should the person it's about be involved? Is the watershed still applicable? And It's Eurovision! #eurovision #watershed #emmerdale #biopics #madonna

HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the first week on the campaign trail. So far, the conservatives seem to be hammering home their message but will Boris be different? Meanwhile Labour go hard on policy while the "progressive alliance" takes shape. #politics #conservatives #theresa may #jeremy corbyn #housing #progressive alliance #general election 2017 #ge2017

The HuffPost UK entertainment team tell us what their into. This week, the ending of "Broadchurch" has left everyone feeling resolved, which can't be said for "Lost". Also, Damien Lewis says things and mental health is on the agenda, but does it matter if celebs speak up? #endings #broadchurch #damien lewis #eton

The HuffPost UK politics team return from a well-deserved break, only to be thrown in the deep end by Theresa May and her snap election. Well, it's been at least 10 minutes since we last voted on something. #theresa may #election2017 #election #vote #labour #jeremy corbyn #lib dems #conservatives #brexit

The HuffPost UK entertainment wait to find out the dramatic conclusion of Broadchurch. What's new in BGT and does true crime pay?

The HuffPost UK entertainment team trawl through the week in entertainment and give their opinion of what they are and are not into. This week, pepsi decided to annoy everyone but only apologised to Kendall Jenner, soap deaths reach a high point and Harry Styles has released some music! #Harry Styles #pepsi #kendall Jenner #kris jenner #emmerdale

The HuffPost UK entertainment team weave their way through the thicket of celebrity red tape to see whether they're into finding more about their faves' political leanings. Also, is offensive humour funny? And it's Susan Boyle's birthday and we're obviously very into it.

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster, which this week was dominated by Theresa May writing a letter. But what a letter. Yes, it's every "remoaner's" nightmare as Article 50 was invoked by the PM. Elsewhere, G4S might have not being doing its job properly, Nigel Farage was happy as Larry and talking World Wars. What a week. #Article 50 #Nigel Farage #Theresa May #Europe #EU #Brexit

The HuffPost UK entertainment team talk about what they're currently into. This week it's knowing when to quit, Power Rangers and knowing when it's a carbon copy.

In this episode of Into It, The HuffPost UK entertainment team tackle two breaking news stories from the world of entertainment whilst also pondering the complexities of comedy. And then it's 5,6,7,8 into the quiz this week. #Glastonbury #Steps #love #eastenders #corrie #soaps

The HuffPost UK politics team try to get their heads round a bewildering week in Westminster. Philip Hammond was forced to back down over NI, not that Jeremy Corbyn could make it pay. Meanwhile, Nicola Sturgeon threatened to out-referendum Theresa May as David Davis announced that the details haven't really been looked at over Brexit. #theresa may #indy referendum #nicola sturgeon #scotland #SNP #Jeremy Corbyn #Tim Farron

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster, which this week was filled with the fallout of Philip Hammond's budget and his National Insurance changes for self-employed workers. What are the implications for brexit and Britain in general? #Budget #philip hammond #theresa may #brexit #lord hesletine

The HuffPost UK entertainment team reflect and breathe a sigh of relief that awards season is over. And didn't it end with a bang? #awards #oscars #awards season #hidden figures

The HuffPost UK entertainment team were left to watch the Brit Awards this week. And it didn't really impress them that much to be honest. Apart from the crashing houses.

The HuffPost UK politics team are down one this week but carry on regardless. Much like a by-elections. This week, the NHS becomes a political tool. Again. Tony Blair makes a visit and schools funding makes a noise. #tony blair #theresa may #copeland #labour #conservatives

The HuffPost UK politics team tackle the week's news, which was rather trumped by the election result in America. Britain tried to remain tactful, wondering whether Brexit unleashed this torrent of populism. #Donald Trump #Brexit #US Elections #elections 2016

The HuffPost UK politics team discuss the reactions to the announcement of the runway at Heathrow airport, including Zac Goldsmith's reaction in parliament, Jeremy Corbyn's quoting Baldrick at PMQs and Emily Thornberry discussing Yemen. #Heathrow #Zac Goldsmith #PMQs #politics #Jeremy Corbyn #Baldrick #Emily Thornberry #Yemen #politics #By Election #Brexit

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. This week, Lib Dems continued conference season with a sturdy look at where they are. No one's quite sure where they are though. Labour meanwhile have olive branches and leadership ballots to think of, while mental health took another knock with budget cuts.

The HuffPost UK politics team welcomes a new member to take a look at the week in Westminster. Brexit havoc doesn't show any signs of making the UK political scene any less barmy, with a new PM, a new cabinet with some surprising inclusions and a Labour party tearing itself together. And have UKIP found some sensible leadership? #Theresa May #Boris Johnson #Brexit #Conservatives #Labour #UKIP #Cabinet #UK politics

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. This week, the Chilcot report was finally published after a seven year search for the truth around why the UK went to war in Iraq. The report mainly confirmed suspicions but what it more importantly did was bring together all the strands of a long drawn-out affair that has eroded the UK's faith in politics. Is Brexit the result? Meanwhile, both the main parties continue to search for that elusive leader. #Chilcot Report #Tony Blair #Bliar #Jeremy Corbyn #conservatives #labour #Iraq War #George W. Bush

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. This week, like every other week, EU referendum took up everyone's energy, with defections and rancour amongst the party ranks spilling over. Meanwhile, Jeremy Corbyn does his best not to get involved. #jeremy corbyn #david cameron #eu referendum #brexit #eu debate #conservatives #sadiq khan

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. This week, the IFS released numbers on Brexit at the same time as migration numbers came out. With the likes of potential future leaders like Boris Johnson running them down in pursuit of Brexit, what will be left from the ashes? #Boris Johnson #David Cameron #brexit #eu referendum #Trump

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at what was a very busy week in the Westminster. Labour failed to capitalise on junior doctor's strikes and the migration of unaccompanied children, instead letting Ken Livingstone do the talking. You know how that went. #KenLivingstone #Labour #JeremyCorbyn #Dubs #syria #davidcameron

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week within Westminster. This week could be the start of the "Oust Jeremy" campaign within his own party. Do they have the momentum though? On the other side of the House, David Cameron accepted defeat over Sunday trading laws. No one it seems, wants to toe the line.

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. Jeremy Corbyn snubbed his Labour's PLP this week to take a seat in a TV studio, causing a lot of problems for his loyal fans in the shadow cabinet. Prostitution gained a voice in a select committee hearing, as current laws were reviewed to see if they can solve problems with the world's oldest profession and all the while the government tried to pass on the news that we'll have to work "until we're dead". If that doesn't cheer you up, the quiz of the week will.

The HuffPost UK politics team look at the week in Westminster that wasn't dominated by EU talk. This week, boundary changes threaten the existence of parliamentary seats, which would suit one party, while an e-petition is used for good for once. Meanwhile, our US cousins push the limits of legitimate candidates.

Europe is on the minds of Parliament as we approach the start of the start of the real campaigning for Britain's future with the EU. The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week's maneuvres from Cameron et al and Boris Johnson's continued game of poker.

The HuffPost UK politics are back to full strength and looking to determine the right prescription for Westminster this week. Jeremy Hunt takes on the Junior Doctors while Labour look to figure out the course of action on Trident and pretty much everyone tries to figure out whether In or Out is the right medication for Britain's European rash.

The week of Westminster dissected by the HuffPost UK politics team. This week, EU negotiations dominated the political news, with David Cameron trumpeting his wins. But were they substantial enough? Meanwhile, back in the House, male politicians were carrying on as usual against the rise of the WASPs.

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster, which had one foot in the future and one foot in the past. Trident has given Jeremy Corbyn trouble and the Conservatives a chance to attack while a range of reports looking into the 2015 election explained the obvious. That's was before the MPs started talking drugs.

The HuffPost UK politics team take on another week in Westminster, this time without Owen Bennett but instead joined by Lucy Sherriff. This week, rebellion is in the air as some Conservative MPs head for Brexit, Labour risk a Corbyn missile crisis and Junior Doctors put down the stethoscopes for the first strike in over 40 years.
