We always love welcoming the people who work away behind-the-scenes at INEOS with G to the GTCC, and this week's guest is one of our most interesting ever: it's team chef, James Forsyth! What's it like cooking on a Grand Tour? How demanding are the riders? How specific are their nutritional needs? G, Tom and James got stuck into all of those topics, loads of listener questions, and much more besides in this week's show. James started out working in Michelin-starred restaurants before taking on the challenge of cooking for Dave Brailsford's men back in 2016. God only knows how much rice he's cooked in that time. Elsewhere, you lot came through with some incredible suggestions for a cycling phonetic alphabet and G is enjoying life back on the training regime. We'll be back next week with a very fun guest. More on that one soon! Music courtesy of BMG Music Production Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Every time James Forsyth preaches, his goal is to set hearts ablaze一like Jesus in Luke 24, when he opened the scriptures with his disciples and their “hearts burned within them.”  As the senior pastor at Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church in Knoxville, TN, James is not interested in conjuring a response in himself or his people but wants to genuinely encounter the living God through Scripture.  In this episode, James explains some of his best preaching practices一from prep to delivery一with Steve Carter:  ●     How and why to schedule your preaching calendar for the whole year ●     How to use your theological chops without getting too technical in the pulpit ●     How to preach with clarity so people can follow you ●     Why the last 10% of message prep makes all the difference ●     Why preaching is just as formative for the preacher as it is for the congregation   EPISODE LINKS  James' podcast: Live Deeply Church: Cedar Springs Presbyterian @jameswforsyth @steveryancarter @craft_character Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1890, Col. James Forsyth - Maumee, Ohio born and bred - led the 7th Calvary into Wounded Knee, South Dakota to disarm 250 Lakota Indians who white settlers were fearing after the murder of their spiritual leader, Sitting Bull. What followed was a massacre of mostly unarmed warriors, women fleeing with babies clutched to their chests, and children hiding in ravines.    www.ohiomysteries.com feedback@ohiomysteries.com www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Music: Audionautix- The Great Unknown, and The Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Learn more about your ad choices.

Rishi Sunak faced up against Keir Starmer in his first Prime Minister's Questions today, and rallied the Conservative backbenches to a more enthusiastic mood than has been seen in, perhaps, months.

This next week will be among the most consequential in contemporary British politics. Ballots are sent out to Tory party members on August 1st, and they can begin voting right away. Whoever wins becomes Prime Minister in September, without first going through a General Election. So this next week is crucial for the two leading candidates to form final impressions before voting begins. To help us understand the process, the candidates, and what this all means for the UK at home, the UK's economy, and the UK in the world, we are joined by James Forsyth, the political editor of The Spectator magazine. He is also a weekly columnist for The Times of London. He previously was a journalist for UK publications The Sun and The Mail.
