In this episode Matthew Lloyd Roberts was joined by Hannah Lund, Curator of Exhibitions and Displays at Leighton House and Sambourne House. Leighton House was built in Kensington by the Frederic Leighton, a painter, sculptor and president of the Royal Academy famed during the reign of Queen Victoria who vanished into relative obscurity during the 20th century. His house was an important place to create and exhibit his paintings, with a double height studio lit by north facing windows for the vast canvasses on which he worked. Fascinated by the material culture of the Islamic world, he created his ‘Arab Hall', tiling a domed extension to his house with West Asian ceramics gathered on a trip to Damascus. In this episode we discussed Leighton House, Victorian interest in Arabian culture, and the new curatorial interventions being made this year to mark the centenary of the house as a public museum run by the local authority, with new commissions from artists which query the meaning of such spaces their original context and to us today.The podcast is produced in association with the Architects' Journal, London Society, C20 Society and Save Britain's Heritage.

Jonathan Alpeyrie is a war photographer and journalist who has spent time documenting the darkest corners of the global drug trade — from cartel territory in Mexico and the favelas of Brazil to the streets of Kensington, Skid Row, Baltimore, and the mega-prisons of El Salvador. Jonathan breaks down what he's seen firsthand while embedding with drug gangs, addicts, undercover police units, and special forces around the world. He explains how European drug gangs are becoming more powerful, why France, Belgium, and Holland are turning into major narco hubs, and how Mexican cartels are exporting their violence and tactics into Europe. Jonathan also discusses the rise of fentanyl in America, the origins of the synthetic opioid pipeline, the brutal reality of addiction on the streets, and what he witnessed inside El Salvador's crackdown on MS-13. From undercover drug buys in Europe to firefights in Rio's favelas, this is a raw look at the worldwide drug crisis from someone who has seen it up close. Go Support Jonathan!

Dev Chana started his career as an oil broker in Kensington. Three decades later he's running E.ON Drive Infrastructure in the UK, and his ambition for public charging is unexpectedly modest: he wants it to be boring. Reliable, standardised, unremarkable — the kind of refuel you don't post about because there's nothing to post.Paul and Sas catch up with Dev after first meeting his team in a rain-lashed Welsh car park during the EV Rally, where the curb-free bays, weighted cables and a small dog set the tone for what EDRI is quietly building.What's on the table: How a 10-person team has put 300+ bays in the ground in three years, when the industry average to install a *single* charger is 18 months The 39p–44p/kWh opening price, why there's no app or membership, and what "no faff, no fuss" actually costs to deliver Accessibility decisions baked in from day one: no bump stops, five-metre cables, CCTV on every HPC site, drainage that doesn't dump a puddle at the driver's feet Why EDRI tiers its food and beverage partners instead of building its own forecourts — and why two early petrol-station sites won't be repeated Vans now make up 25% of utilisation. Nobody invited them. What that's telling EDRI about the next phase of the network The Shanghai motor show, BYD's jumping supercar, and what the XPeng/VW partnership signals for European OEMs Dev's car-club mates who told him EVs would never take off — and have now switched their dailies The mentors who shaped him: Ann Buckingham, who pulled him into the sector, and his father's moral compass Where consolidation in the CPO market needs to land for the consumer experience to finally standardise Dev is a self-confessed petrolhead with a V8 from the early '90s and a 1981 classic with fewer than 15 survivors. He's also the leader most likely to tell you the industry isn't done learning — and to ask what *you'd* change.Guest: Dev Chana, Managing Director UK, E.ON Drive InfrastructureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dev-chana-1228b94/Website: https://www.edri.com

Where are Wayne's favourite Edmonton neighbourhoods to invest in? In this episode, Wayne and Gabby break down some of the Edmonton neighbourhoods Wayne likes for rental property investing, and why they make sense from an investor's perspective. This is not about buying the fanciest house in the prettiest neighbourhood. It is about understanding tenant profile, affordability, accessibility, property type, cash flow potential, long-term demand, and whether the area fits the kind of rental property business you are trying to build. Wayne shares why he likes areas like Ormsby Place, Jasper Park, Kensington, Ellerslie, Summerside, and Lakewood, while also explaining the strengths and weaknesses of each one. He also talks about why working-class neighbourhoods can be powerful for investors, why accessibility matters, why some areas attract longer-term tenants, and why investors need to separate what they personally like from what tenants actually want. Wayne and Gabby also discuss infill development, suited houses, townhouses, single-family rentals, tenant desirability, and why some Edmonton neighbourhoods may change dramatically over the next 10 to 30 years. If you are thinking about investing in Edmonton real estate, this episode will help you better understand how Wayne looks at neighbourhoods, tenant profile, property types, and long-term rental demand. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why Wayne still sees strong opportunity in Edmonton real estate Why neighbourhood selection matters for rental property investors Why investors should think about tenant profile first Why accessibility can make a rental property more desirable Why working-class neighbourhoods can be strong rental areas Why Wayne likes Ormsby Place for accessibility and tenant demand Why Jasper Park has changed so much because of infill development Why some older Edmonton neighbourhoods may become more renter-focused over time Why Kensington can be a strong area for suited houses and family rentals Why Ellerslie and Summerside attract long-term family tenants Why Lakewood in Mill Woods has historically worked well for Wayne Why rental properties do not need to be flashy to be profitable Why investors should separate personal preference from business decisions Why tenant retention matters for long-term profitability Why townhouses, suited houses, and single-family rentals can each serve different tenant profiles Why Edmonton investors need to understand how neighbourhoods are changing Why cash flow and tenant demand matter more than buying something "sexy" Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 June 12, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca/edmontongardensuites101 REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Newly surfaced details suggest that **Jeffrey Epstein continued to fly women into the United Kingdom and maintain them in a luxury London flat right up until the day he died in August 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Flight logs from Epstein's private jet — often called the **“Lolita Express” — indicate he made dozens of trips to the UK, transporting women who would stay at the rented apartment in Kensington. Payments linked to the flat, reportedly exceeding £160,000, were made through entities associated with Epstein, and communications indicate he was arranging rent and schooling for some of the women there, suggesting his network remained operational in Britain until his final months.The revelations have sparked renewed scrutiny from British authorities, with multiple police jurisdictions — including the Metropolitan Police and the National Crime Agency — examining potential sex trafficking activity and use of UK airports as entry points for Epstein's flights. Investigators are also probing whether these arrangements could tie into broader trafficking schemes similar to those documented in the U.S., and UK officials have sought unredacted files from American authorities to deepen their inquiry. The emerging picture suggests a significant European component to Epstein's activities, intensifying pressure on investigators to uncover the full extent of his operations outside American borders.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein flew in girls to stay at his London flat up until the day he died | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Last night's Q&A was a fun little life update from Florida and everything happening with the horses lately. I did try to do the live from the barn, but the internet completely failed… and of course we had an interruption from Messi barking in the background too!I shared about Kensington and how much I've been enjoying riding him out in the fields lately. We've been schooling pirouettes & flying changes out in the open, and I honestly think he enjoys the variety so much more. I love mixing things up and finding ways to make training more fun for both me and the horses.There's an update on Mik and how exciting it's been to finally get his flying changes confirmed and start working on tempi's with him. It's been such a rewarding process bringing him along over the past year.I've been filming lots of new Strides content with Future for our upcoming biomechanics month, plus talking about Harvey's journey and how special it's been having him back in work and happily going in a hackamore.One of my favorite parts of the week was our older rider webinar. Hearing everyone's stories and perseverance was honestly so inspiring, and it reminded me how incredible our horse community really is.I chat a little about the upcoming show webinar and some of the common mistakes I see riders making during show season, along with tips to help you feel more confident, prepared, and successful in the show ring. Will I see you the? Click here to RSVP as I'll be sharing some of my best tips to help you improve your rides and your scores!Happy Riding,Amelia

The legend himself Jack Douglas (1945-2026) shares stories from five decades of rock history — from producing John Lennon's final album to the memories Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, The Who, and his recent production of Silverplanes. Topics Include: Jack Douglas joins Nate from a snowy driveway, cigar in hand. Silverplanes' debut album Airbus is finally releasing after years of delays. Jack met Silverplanes' Aaron Smart through his college-age son. Aaron turned out to own the Sunset Boulevard studio Jack had worked in. Jeff Emerick mixed the album shortly before his sudden death in 2018. The pandemic added two more years of delay to the release. Jack and Aaron are now label partners with New York real estate billionaire Douglas Durst. Their label operates 50/50 with artists — no standard royalty deals. Signed artists include Robin Taylor Zander and the Detroit Youth Choir. Jack builds songs from a single acoustic guitar performance first. Aerosmith was different — built from the band groove up, lyrics last. Walk This Way had no lyric until a Young Frankenstein gag unlocked it. Jack started his career as a TV composer while janitoring at Record Plant. He worked on sessions that became The Who's Who's Next. Kit Lambert and Keith Moon were both, politely, out of their minds. Jack survived eccentric clients by being reliably sober and crazy simultaneously. John Lennon was the easiest artist Jack ever worked with. John would say: "I'm the artist, you're the producer — let's work like that." Jack engineered Imagine and stayed close to Lennon through the Lost Weekend years. He was in and out of the Fame sessions with Lennon and Bowie. John told Bowie: "I'm writing you the best hit you'll ever have." John knew about — and liked — Aerosmith's cover of "Come Together." George Martin gave Jack a flat in Kensington and a Morgan sportscar. Jack helped produce Ringo's "Grow Old With Me," hiding Here Comes the Sun in the strings. Double Fantasy was secretly recorded at Hit Factory, too far west for fans. John wanted a middle-of-the-road record aimed at people aged 28 to 40. Earl Slick was kept from rehearsals deliberately — a wildcard for fresh solos. Rick Nielsen discovered John's Shea Stadium Rickenbacker with the setlist still taped on. Rick later gifted John a custom all-white Rickenbacker, model 001, never cashed his check. Cheap Trick's "I'm Losing You" session was thrilling but too edgy for the album. Jack hid microphones throughout the sessions, gifting John cassettes on his birthday. Jack destroyed the tape of the last day — John had sworn him to secrecy. After John's murder, Jack and Yoko listened to vault tapes alone until dawn. Yoko later sued Jack; Phil Spector's incoherent testimony and a wig mishap followed. Jann Wenner called Jack a nobody — until Jack's lawyer read Wenner's own book aloud. The jury was out ten minutes. Jack won millions. The 2010 Stripped Down version was mixed in the exact same Record Plant room. Live at Budokan was actually Osaka — Budokan tapes were too poorly recorded. Jack rebuilt the Osaka drum kit using speaker-driven bass frequencies and filtered signals. Aerosmith's Live Bootleg was sent back to Sony unchanged after Jack faked a remix session.

She has served on the Royal Institute of British Architects board as Honorary Treasurer and board trustee. Simone also engages with the Britain's Royal Family as her affiliation with organizations in the field of urban planning and architecture are connected to Kensington Palace, a royal residence situated within Kensington Gardens in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in London, England. She is the driving force behind SGA's Westminster based organization, an Award Winning Architecture Practice which operates in UK and internationally. Simone is shaping innovative architecture throughout London and Internationally. She has won many awards and accolades including the Winner 'Architect of the Year' Women in Construction. The conversation is focused on America and Britain's challenges and opportunities in the housing sector as a new generation and first home buyers face skyrocketing prices and fewer choices. We are also looking for solutions and best practices in the areas of urban planning, infrastructure and long-term growth. In April 2026 via AP: WASHINGTON (AP) — White House economists estimate the United States has a shortage of 10 million houses, according to a new report — and say regulatory cuts could lead to more construction to stabilize prices, increase home ownership and fuel faster economic growth. From a UK think tank: New analysis by the Centre for Policy Studies reveals that the UK has a shortage of 6.5 million homes when compared to similar European countries. Britain has just 446 homes per 1,000 people, the second worst rate in Europe. This compares to 560 in France, 516 in Germany, and a European average of 542. americasrt.com https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @simonedegale @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Queen Victoria was Empress of India. She was also godmother to the children of the man whose kingdom she helped destroy. Victoria called him “your affectionate friend.”But as Polly Putnam tells me, it was a strange relationship between conqueror and conquered.Polly is the Collections Curator at Historic Royal Palaces, the historian behind Netflix's Bridgerton, and the curator of The Last Princesses of Punjab — her 31st exhibition, and the hardest one she has ever done. She did not want to tell this story from above. She wanted South Asian voices in the room.In this episode, we cover why Sophia sold suffragette newspapers outside Hampton Court, why Bamba had snowballs thrown at her on the way to medical school, why Catherine told a Jewish refugee fleeing the Nazis, “I'll be that person,” why Duleep Singh died with a Bible at his bedside despite taking Sikh initiation, and the revelation that almost everything in this family's London history happened in Kensington, including the birth of the women's suffrage movement itself.

Dave Marquess grew up inside a reality most people only glimpse in headlines. Raised by a meth cook and heroin addict, his childhood was less about homework and more about survival. By eighth grade, violence had already entered the story. By his teens, he was moving through a world of escorts, hustles, and whatever could be stolen, stripped, and sold. PCP showed up early. Heroin followed. At one point, he even called his own mother to learn how to shoot it.The crash was inevitable. Jail forced a brutal detox and a confrontation with everything he had been outrunning. What came next was not a clean, cinematic turnaround but something more interesting. He started rebuilding from a place he had abandoned long ago: his childhood creativity.Dave tapped back into his artistic instincts and turned them into something functional, designing a game specifically for people in recovery. Not as a gimmick, but as a tool. A way to engage addicts in their own healing using strategy, storytelling, and choice. The same mind that once engineered survival in the streets now builds systems for growth.This conversation moves through trauma, accountability, and the strange alchemy of turning pain into purpose. It is about what happens when someone stops trying to escape their story and instead rewrites the rules of the game entirely.Check out Dave's games hereConnect with Dave on InstagramDM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

Newly surfaced evidence indicates that Jeffrey Epstein continued operating parts of his network in the United Kingdom even after British authorities declined to pursue a full investigation into him. Records including emails, receipts, and financial documents show that Epstein maintained at least four properties in London—specifically in the affluent Kensington and Chelsea area—where multiple women stayed. At least six of those women have since come forward alleging sexual abuse, with some reportedly brought to the UK from countries like Russia and across Eastern Europe. These arrangements are said to have taken place after the Metropolitan Police were made aware of trafficking allegations, including claims raised by Virginia Giuffre in 2015, but chose not to move forward with a deeper investigation.The revelations suggest that Epstein's activities in London were not isolated or short-lived, but part of a broader, ongoing operation that continued until close to his 2019 arrest. Documents show he remained in contact with women housed in these flats and in some cases funded their education or visas, while also arranging travel across Europe. Critics argue that the failure to act earlier allowed his network to persist in plain sight, raising serious questions about how authorities assessed the available evidence at the time and whether opportunities to disrupt his operations were missed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein housed alleged victims in London after Met declined to investigate him, reports say | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

It's wisteria season — and flower-filled streets in Notting Hill and Kensington have become littered with visitors keen to take a picture in front of pastel coloured houses, with the viral flowers in shot. In this episode, host Tamara Kormornick speaks to Standard journalist Niva Yadav, to discuss whether it is fair to take pictures of people's homes, and whether security measures will be taken to curb the anti-social behaviour of some wisteria enthusiasts in London.Clips: Universal Pictures, ITV News (Faye Barker) Hosted on Acast.

What happens when someone everyone counted out becomes the one who builds it all? In this episode, I sit down with Rob C, whose story starts in chaos and lands in clarity. From early drug use and crime to serving time in prison at just 20, Rob's path didn't exactly point toward success. But after getting sober in California, everything began to shift.Rob opens up about the real work of rebuilding a life from the ground up, the mindset that carried him through early recovery, and how he went from having very little to building and selling multiple businesses. Along the way, he met his wife Amanda (yes, from the Sober Girl Group Chat

In this inaugural 2026 episode, Mark Homer provides a candid look at the fractured state of the UK property market. After a volatile end to 2025, Mark explores the stark contrast between the plummeting values in luxury London boroughs like Chelsea and Kensington, some down as much as 40%, and the resilient growth in the North and Midlands.  KEY TAKEAWAYS A Tale of Two Markets: Central London (Chelsea, Mayfair, Kensington) has seen a decade-long "slow-motion crash," with prices returning to 2013/2014 levels. Meanwhile, the Midlands and North remain strong, often with market values sitting below the cost of rebuilding. The Rental Squeeze: The Renters' Rights Act of 2026 is expected to professionalize the sector but also drive up rents by 5% to 10% as landlords pass on the increased costs of compliance and taxation. Interest Rate Relief: After interest rates spiked 1000% through the COVID era (0.5% to over 5%), they are finally retreating. Mark predicts a base rate of approximately 3% by the end of 2026. The "Five-Year Rule" for Buyers: If you plan to stay in a property for less than five years, renting is likely more cost-effective due to high stamp duty, legal fees, and moving costs. For stays of seven years or more, buying remains the superior financial move. Capital Gains Advantage: One of the most significant remaining tax reliefs for UK residents is the capital gains exemption on a primary residence. Mark emphasizes utilizing this to build wealth through home improvements and natural market appreciation. BEST MOMENTS “London has been a bit of a slow-motion crash... I've seen flats and houses that have dropped 30% and 40% in the last 10 years. It is nuts." "In many places in the Midlands and the North, it will cost you more to rebuild a property than its market value. You can't replace it for what you're actually buying it for." "Landlords will have to be paid for this increased cost of doing business... and that will be in the form of extra rent." "Inflation actually destroys and reduces your mortgage. If inflation is 3% and your mortgage is 5%, the real cost is only 2%." "Don't panic. I think it's a good time to buy and to hold. I've seen this cycle over and over again for 25 years."

There must be a shift in the Zeitgeist of the publishing world, because after a long drought in Gothic novels, this is the second one I've encountered in little more than a month. The Fourth Wife (Kensington, 2026) takes place near Salt Lake City, Utah, during the years when the Mormon community there still practiced polygamy but was coming under increasing pressure from the US government to abandon the practice, pressure that included a law making multiple, simultaneous marriages a criminal offense. It's 1882. Twenty-year-old Hazel Russon, a talented pianist, has grown up in a polygamous family, but she has a secret agreement with her childhood friend Elijah Crowther that they will become each other's only spouse once they are permitted to marry. When Elijah's father, a powerful figure in Salt Lake City society, summons Hazel and informs her that Elijah has rejected her in favor of a return to the fundamental principles of Mormon life—the most fundamental of which is polygamy, known only as the Principle—she is shattered by her love's betrayal. As a result, she allows Elder Crowther to talk her into becoming the fourth wife of Brother Jacob Manwaring, a wealthy older man who promises Hazel a home of her own, including a piano. Hazel has long struggled with what most of us in the twenty-first century would categorize as an anxiety disorder, in part caused by the difficulty she has in meeting the extreme demands of her religion for female submissiveness. And although initially attracted to Jacob, she soon discovers that not everything Elder Crowder told her about her husband-to-be was the truth….  It's all delightfully creepy and fast-paced, and the interactions among Jacob's wives are even more interesting than those between them and Jacob.  Linda Hamilton studies and writes about nineteenth-century Mormon life as both a historian and a novelist—including, most recently, The Fourth Wife. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and four other novels. Her next book, Song of the Silk Weaver, will appear in the summer of 2026. Learn more about your ad choices.

Graham Tomlin joins Kelsi to discuss the influence and faith of 17th-century polymath, Blaise Pascal, based on Tomlin's most recent book, "Blaise Pascal: The Man Who Made the Modern World." The two discuss his similarities and differences with Martin Luther, his views of 17th-century French society (and how this culture offers many lessons for our modern world), and his contributions to Christian apologetics. Graham is the editor-in-Chief of Seen & Unseen, and a former Bishop of Kensington. He is a regular contributor to national publications and has written many books and articles, both academic and more popular. He founded the Centre for Cultural Witness, home to Seen & Unseen, in 2023. He taught theology within Oxford University for many years before founding St. Mellitus College.Show Notes:⁠⁠⁠Support 1517 Podcast Network⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1517 Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1517 on Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1517 Events Schedule⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1517 Academy - Free Theological Education⁠⁠⁠More from Kelsi:⁠⁠⁠Kelsi Klembara⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Kelsi on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Kelsi on Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kelsi's Substack⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Show:⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠More from Graham: Order Blaise Pascal:The Man Who Made the Modern WorldSeen & UnseenGraham's Substack
