This week's spooky season offering dives past the whole haunted house experience to go deeper. What if the haunting was more specific? An attic or cellar is well known trope, but what about a playground? A nursery? A clock or a mirror? What do those things say about the state of the main character's mind in storytelling? And what exactly is the quiet terror of the mundane more effective than dripping gore and howling monsters? Jules and Madeleine tackle these questions and more.   On the slab this week: Rebekah - Daphne du Maurier, The Yellow Wallpaper - Charlotte Perkins Gilman, The Scald Crow - Grace Daly and many more

In this episode of Straight To The Source, we’re joined by two culinary heavyweights: Adrian Richardson, TV chef and restaurateur behind La Luna and Good Chef Bad Chef, and Markus Werner, Culinary Director at Delaware North, overseeing stadiums and resorts across Australia.

They talk about: The realities of kitchen culture then and now. What has changed and what hasn’t How to spot and nurture the next generation of great chefs The balance between fine dining precision and stadium-scale catering What keeps these bigger-than-life chefs inspired outside the kitchen, from hunting to motorbikes to salami-making Their most memorable food moments (including Adrian’s unforgettable nonna’s ravioli) A lively, heartfelt, and often hilarious conversation about passion, friendship, and what it truly means to dedicate your life to food.

SUBSCRIBE HERE Katie Rosen Kitchens didn't set out to build a subscription box, she set out to build a community. What began as an online magazine with product recommendations grew into FabFitFun, a membership that millions of women see as a quarterly act of self-care.In this episode with Lindsay Pinchuk, Katie shares how a 24-hour sellout of the very first test box set the stage for everything that followed: full-size products, full customization, members-only sales, and a thriving community where feedback shapes each season. Storytelling still drives it all, making every product feel personal rather than transactional.She also explains how FabFitFun became a launchpad for brands, using influencers and editorial reach to turn products, like OUAI's leave-in conditioner, into bestsellers. Flexibility is key—members can swap items or even entire boxes—building trust with every shipment.Katie doesn't shy away from the hard parts either, from a million-unit product recall to the operational lessons that came out of it. Today, FabFitFun is expanding its impact with brand investments and 3PL services, proving that listening to your community and evolving with it is the foundation of lasting growth.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Meet Katie Rosen Kitchens Co-Founder of FabFitFun05:52 FabFitFun's Origin Story15:44 Building Community and Listening to Customers26:55 From Media Company to Membership Model28:20 Outlasting the Subscription Box Trend43:11 Final Advice for Female FoundersConnect with Katie Rosen Kitchens:http://www.instagram.com/katieakitchenshttp://www.instagram.com/fabfitfunFollow Lindsay @dearfoundher on InstagramInterested in leveling up your marketing?

Welcome back to Home Design Chat with Nancy I am your host Nancy Hugo. One of the most popular questions I hear as a kitchen designer is “What are the trends for the new year?”  Kitchens are especially prone to new trends and homeowners typically want the latest and greatest gadgets and to increase their resale value. We know that generally speaking the kitchen sells the home. I do want to point out that not only are homeowners interested in the resale factor but also they are interested in designing for their forever home.  They want to stay in their home longer and feel safe and secure and happy. The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) and Kitchen & Bath Industry Show just released the 2026 Kitchen Trends Report based on a survey conducted among the NKBA community including the US and Canada. Did this survey agree with independent designers?  The topics I covered StyleCabinet ColorsKitchen layoutsInduction CookingTask zonesDecorative LightingKitchen islandsDid you agree with the surveys?  What is your opinion on these topics?Listen to my weekly podcast to learn everything about your home, what the current trends are, how to design, plan and execute your remodel and much moreIf you have questions for my guests in this podcast or past podcasts, please send them to Nancy@NancyHugo.comBy the way, you can send me an email at Nancy@nancyhugo.com to get on my email list for DesignersCircleHQ.com.  All the podcasts are posted there as well as Design Trends, Design News and more.  DesignersCirclehq.com is a website!If you want to learn more about me, go to NancyHugo.com This podcast is sponsored by ⁠⁠Monogram.com

In this special episode, co-hosts Teena and Jim kick off the new season with a unique twist: instead of interviewing a guest, they dive into a reflective exercise designed to help them—and listeners—learn to delight in the often-overlooked aspects of life. Drawing from Jim's creative practice, they each choose something they typically resist or undervalue (for Teena, restoring order at home; for Jim, baseball) and walk through a six-step process to cultivate appreciation and gratitude. The conversation is rich with personal stories, honest struggles, and thoughtful insights about attention, creativity, and the hidden gifts in everyday routines. Along the way, Teena and Jim explore how their perspectives have been shaped by past experiences, how they see echoes of the divine in mundane tasks, and how embracing new disciplines can lead to deeper joy and connection. Listeners will come away inspired to notice the beauty in the ordinary, reflect on their own narratives, and perhaps try the exercise themselves. The episode sets a warm, introspective tone for the season, promising more meaningful conversations to come. Learning to Delight in God's World (Especially the Overlooked Parts) There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world, that is not intended to make us rejoice. - John Calvin There are many aspects of God's world that we often overlook or even resist delighting in. But with intentionality and attentiveness, we can cultivate a deep appreciation and gratitude toward God, even for the things we typically ignore or don't typically value. Here are six practices to help you cultivate delight in God's gifts and see the overlooked goodness in God's world. 1. See it through the eyes of someone who loves it. Borrow someone else's affection for and let their appreciation awaken your own curiosity. 2. Learn its context. Explore its history, purpose, or ecosystem. Understanding often unlocks awe. 3. Truly experience it. Don't just observe it from afar. Step into it. Try it. Engage your senses. 4. Prayerfully Contemplate. Pay attention to the intricacies of it, who is impacted by it, and hidden brilliance within your things. Let that detail lead you into worship and thanksgiving. 5. Examine your story about it. What's your personal narrative around this thing? Identify the ways your personal narratives prevent you from seeing the hidden goodness. Even if there are some truly broken aspects of your “thing,” God's grace is always at work and there are likely stories of people who are resisting that evil. Or it's merely a good aspect of God's world that has been twisted and is not being used the way God wants it. 6. Look for the echoes of God. What does this thing reflect about God? Where is His beauty, order, or creativity, or providence hidden inside?

Welcome to Part 1 of our Outdoor Living Series!   This week, Coach Matt dives into outdoor kitchens and structures that transform a yard from “just a landscape” into a true extension of your home. From gas, water, and drainage infrastructure to pergolas, she-sheds, and patio enclosures—discover how to take your DIY landscape to the next level.   These aren't just add-ons; they're lifestyle upgrades that boost comfort, socializing, and pride of ownership. Whether you're a weekend DIYer or thinking about hiring help, this episode will give you ideas and a roadmap for your next project.  

In today's Tech3 from Moneycontrol, Prime Minister Modi says speed is the new currency in semiconductors as India pushes $18 billion worth of chip projects. Kitchens@ looks to acquire Popo Ventures, the brand behind Pizza Bakery and Paris Panini, in a Rs 800 crore deal. TCS strikes its first mega contract this fiscal with insurer Tryg, while also rolling out long-delayed salary hikes. And finally, Urban Company and Boat secure Sebi approvals for IPOs, joining India's growing pipeline of startup listings.

Hello! This is Episode 370, and in it, I’m catching up again with HOME Method member, Tatiana, as she continues the journey of designing and planning her new family home in regional Queensland with her partner and three boys. In this episode, we dive into more of the details, including exploring how Tatiana is thinking ahead about her kitchen and bathrooms, researching materials and layouts that will work for her climate, and looking at ways to minimise maintenance and avoid common pitfalls. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/370] In Part 1 in the last podcast, Episode 369, we talked about keeping the design simple to suit their budget, making key layout choices, how Tatiana has found their budget constraints helpful to keep them on track, and collaborating closely with their building designer and builder. (You can find that episode at www.undercoverarchitect.com/369) In Part 2, we talk about navigating cost allowances, how to work with joiners and suppliers when budgets are tight, and where off-the-shelf items might make sense. And Tatiana shares her honest thoughts on finance, including the overwhelm many homeowners feel, and we discuss when and how to start meaningful conversations with a mortgage broker to support design decisions. Lastly, we explore blower door testing, what it is, when to do it, and how it can improve building performance, especially in sustainable or airtight homes. If you’re preparing for your own project and want to hear how to juggle big-picture planning with the smaller details, while keeping your budget and goals in balance, I think you’ll find this episode really valuable.

​​This month Lecker is re-releasing some older episodes: here's Kitchens, a six part series from 2021 about the most important room in the home. Kitchens are inextricably linked with the woman of the house. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given that the fitted kitchen was literally designed as a workspace to fit around a woman's body. But what does this mean for women - and men - now? How are traditional gender roles built up and broken down by the kitchen itself? Michael Etheridge reflects on the distribution of domestic labour in his own home, and food writer Gemma Croffie talks about the narrow definition of accepted womanhood when it comes to domestic work. A full transcript for this episode is available on the Lecker website. The title Meal Machine comes from the companion guide to the 2011 MoMA exhibition Counter Space: Design + The Modern Kitchen: “Meal machine, experimental laboratory, status symbol, domestic prison, or the creative and spiritual heart of the home?” Lecker is written and produced by Lucy Dearlove. Thanks to my contributors on this episode: Michael Etheridge and Gemma Croffie.  You can read Gemma's piece Kitchens on the Path, which inspired this episode, in the print zine released alongside this audio series.
