Podcast appearances and mentions of Lady Anne

Lo Que Nos Cuenta El Cuento - La reticencia de Lady Anne, Saki by Radiotelevisión de Veracruz

Hallo und herzlich willkommen hier zu einer neuen Folge von Ridgley. Deine magischen Podcast oder wie soll ich jetzt sagen Ridgleys magischer Podcast? Genau. Heute geht es wieder um die Auferstehung. Oder sagen wir mal so nach der langen Pause von meiner Person. Ja, es hat sich viel verändert und ja, es wird auch einiges ändern. Aber hey, das Leben bringt immer wieder neue Erweiterungen und auch neue Änderungen mit sich. Nicht immer. Alles ist relativ schlecht, wenn es nicht mehr da ist oder wenn es da ist. Dementsprechend wollte ich auch jetzt wieder herzlich willkommen sagen und ich freue mich, wieder da zu sein. Ja, natürlich bist du bestimmt neugierig und möchtest wissen Was ist alles passiert bei dir? Ridgeley Nun, das ist eigentlich relativ einfach, so alles ein bisschen zu erklären. Ich mache es kurz und knapp, weil es will jetzt auch nicht allzu viel darüber reden. Angefangen hat es ja vor einem guten halben Jahr, wo ich im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes gebrochen war. Also es gab einiges an Problemen. Eine dritte Person ist dazugekommen und ja, das hat relativ viel Energie, viel Nerven und vor allem auch ganz stark die Psyche beeinträchtigt. Ähm, sagen wir mal so, nur dieser Panzer Bruch war auch wichtig. Wieso? Nun, das ist relativ einfach zu erklären. Und zwar habe ich hier einfach diesen Punkt gebraucht. Auch die Schattenseiten kennenzulernen. Sprich ich habe hier immer versucht den Guten zu sein, immer brav, immer lieb und habe immer beschwichtigt, wo es nur ging. Ja, in der Psychologie nennt man das halt eben Mustern. Und in diesem Sinne habe ich dann halt immer wieder geguckt, dass ich der Gute bin. Das ist im ersten Moment ja vielleicht eine gut gemeinte Sache, aber gut gemacht ist es aber nicht. Bedeutet im Umkehrschluss, dass ich halt einfach hier nicht mehr auf mich geachtet habe und habe mich verloren. Ja, so ist es dann auch passiert. Ich habe mich im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes ja auch verloren und es ging dann im Endeffekt nichts mehr. Ja, lange Rede, kurzer Sinn Nach einigen Psychotherapiestunden und auch einiges an Geld habe ich dann halt einfach hier dann noch mal zu mir gefunden. Und das heißt aber nicht, dass das alleine reicht. Weil in der Gesundheit gibt es ja immer so schöne drei Säulen und zwar einmal die körperliche Gesundheit. Also Bein gebrochen usw kennt man ja, dann macht man wieder fix die psychische Gesundheit, das heißt, wenn man Depressionen hat oder ähnliches, dann kommt man auch wieder auf die Beine und das dauert halt aber auch lange und ist nicht einfach so wegzuwischen. Je nachdem, was man auch erlebt hat. Da will ich aber jetzt auch nicht unbedingt genau ins Detail gehen, weil das würde hier den Rahmen absolut sprengen. Dann hat man aber auch und die Säule habe ich echt unterschätzt und zwar die soziale Säule, Das heißt ohne meine Freunde, ohne meine Liebsten und ohne Menschen, die mir wirklich auch Mut zugesprochen haben, hätte ich einiges nicht ändern können. Das bedeutet ja im Moment für die, die es noch nicht wirklich mitbekommen haben. Ich wohne jetzt alleine und stemme jetzt mein Leben sozusagen alleine. Das ist ungewohnt für mich. Gerade mit einem, mit einer Beeinträchtigung ist das nicht immer so einfach, gerade hier. Einfach mal alles alleine zu machen. Und da bekomme ich aber auch zum Glück Unterstützung von vielen Seiten. Also ich bin im Großen und Ganzen gut aufgestellt, bin nicht alleine und das funktioniert auf jeden Fall. Also das ist schon mal der Punkt, den ich so viel verraten kann. Nun, wieso, weshalb, warum? Da will ich jetzt ehrlich gesagt nicht eingehen. Nicht weil ich dich nicht mag oder weil ich halt einfach ähm, ja, wie soll ich sagen? Weil ich darüber ein Problem hätte zu reden, sondern ich sehe das mittlerweile als Selbstschutz für beide Seiten, weil wir kennen ja das Problem und das Prinzip der stillen Post. Das, was du hörst, ist eine ganz andere Wahrnehmung, wie das, was ich erzähle. Und meine Absichten sind immer eine gute und dementsprechend. Bevor da ein Strick gedreht wird, sage ich einfach gar nichts und lasse es gut sein. Aber das ist jetzt mal der Punkt, wo man jetzt mal kurz über mich gesprochen haben, sprich eine kleine Namensänderung, sprich ein bisschen Änderungen im Leben. Und was er aber jetzt dennoch kommt, ist Mein Blog ist wieder da. Das heißt es wird wieder Artikel geben, es wird wieder Videos geben, es wird auch wieder neue Sachen geben, wo ich teste ja auch Essen. Ihr kennt es doch nur zu gut und ich weiß, du vermisst es einfach ungemein. Und natürlich auch meine Storys. Da freue ich mich natürlich am aller, aller, aller allermeisten darauf. Und ja, dass ich einfach wieder frei Schnauze mit dir reden kann, das ist auf jeden Fall das, was ich hier so einfach mal gerade so ein bisschen wahrnehme. Und ja, das, was ich auf jeden Fall auch wieder bringen will. Ja, es gibt aber natürlich auch noch ein anderes Projekt und das kennst du ja auf jeden Fall auch schon in meinen Podcasts. Und zwar meinen süßen Eduard. Der erzählt ja immer so gerne Geschichten für sehr schwer kranke Kinder von May If you make a wish. Und da sind wir auf jeden Fall auch dran. Es kommt eine neue Geschichte, das heißt, da dürfen auch unsere kleinsten Fans gespannt sein. Also es ist auf jeden Fall ganz viel im Umbruch und ich freue mich umso mehr, jetzt sehr viel für dich bieten zu können. Ja, was kommt denn eigentlich noch so? Nun, also jetzt gerade im Moment, wo ich jetzt eben aufnehme, sind es noch ungefähr dreißig Minuten. Dann geht es auch schon los. Wieder ins alte Gefilde oder sagen wir ins neue Gefilde. Und zwar Disneyland Paris kommt auch wieder ins Programm rein. Das heißt, ich bin auch wieder, sage ich jetzt mal, nicht geheilt, das kann man jetzt sagen. Aber ich habe so richtig Bock und Laune wieder so richtig schön die Charakter, den Charakter, das Leben zur Hölle zu machen, aber auch den Spaß, wenn man eine schöne süße Überraschung zu schenken. Wenn es auch nur ein Lächeln ist. Weil das sind die Dinge, worauf ich mich sehr freue und freue mich auf jeden Fall auch auf die Leute wieder alle zu sehen. Das heißt auch für dich, wenn du mich siehst, stupst mich an, sag Hey, Rigle. Schön, dass du wieder da bist, oder? Kacke, dass du wieder da bist. Egal, wie du es meinst. Ich freue mich auf jeden Fall, jeden Einzelnen begrüßen zu dürfen. Ja, und das ist auf jeden Fall schon mal was Schönes. Ja, was ist denn jetzt eigentlich so auch in den nächsten Wochen los? Das würde ich auch schon mal gerne erzählen. Und zwar ganz interessant ist, dass sich in den nächsten Tagen entschieden wird, wer kommt am fünfzehnte März bzw eher vierzehnte März zu dem Insiders Event nach Arendelle? Das heißt man darf Charakterfotos machen, man darf sich auch amüsieren und zwar mit Frozen ever after. Und zu guter Letzt auch die Promenade, wo man zum Ende hinkommt und zum Abschluss natürlich auch die Top Neue. Ähm. Eins, zwei, drei. Jetzt haben wir den Namen vergessen. Super Richy, die unsere supertolle neue Abendshow. Und ja, da ich den Namen vergessen habe und das ist auch wieder typisch Ich ist dann auf jeden Fall auch dabei, ob ich erzogen worden bin oder nicht. Das wird sich in den nächsten Tagen auf jeden Fall kristallisieren. Wenn nicht, dann ist es halt so, dann bin ich halt am fünfzehnte März dran. Dann ist es eben im Leben eben eben so. So, das ist jetzt mal so, auf jeden Fall das nächste, was kommt. Ja, und dann hoffe ich auch schon, dass schon sehr bald auch wieder der Europapark öffnet, weil ja ich vermisse dass so ein ganz bisschen. Das ist auf jeden Fall etwas, was ich auch bräuchte. So ein bisschen Schütteln, ein bisschen Gas, ein bisschen Adrenalin. Und auf jeden Fall noch ganz viel Liebe von euch. Das auf jeden Fall. Das darf nicht fehlen. Es wäre ja aber nicht richle. Ein magischer Podcast Schrägstrich magischer Podcast, wenn es nicht eigentlich auch noch mal über Disney geht. Ich habe jetzt auch noch mal jetzt eben auch noch mal einen Artikel veröffentlicht. Da geht es um die Legacy, also um das Vermächtnis von Disney und eben auch um die, wie soll ich sagen, um die gesamte Werte, die ich da halt einfach jetzt auch so ein bisschen mitbekommen habe. Also der Artikel ist auch übrigens aufzurufen auf meiner Homepage und da steht dann Slash Disney ist mein. Also auch wieder ein Minus. Dazwischen Minus zu Hause. Und dann reden wir noch ein bisschen einfach darüber, wie es mit einer kleinen Hommage an Walter Elias Disney auch gehört, was es eben alles mit meinen Werten zu tun hat und wie ich auch eben zu Disney kam. Also ich war, bevor ich fünf Jahre alt war, ein Junge, der niemals sprach, also wirklich nicht. Und wenn ich gesprochen habe, dann sehr schlecht. Also immer nur so Sachen wie Damm Damm für Banane oder äh ja, dann hatte ich auch noch T. Für meine Schwester Stephanie und ja, dann kam irgendwann mit vier Jahren dann Cinderella. Das hat meine Schwester zu ihrem zu Weihnachten geschenkt bekommen. Man muss eigentlich auch noch Funfact mäßig dazu sagen. Weihnachten wurde nie gefeiert, weil meine Mutter eine andere Religion hat oder sagen wir mal zu einer Sekte gehört. Und ähm ja und als in den jungen Jahren war ich halt eben schnell überfordert. Oft zu laut, manchmal zu still, aber auch vor allem eins auffällig in einer Welt, in der sowieso alles zu viel war oder ich es halt einfach nicht Verstand haben. Also sprich, ich habe da nicht immer wirklich viel mir drum gemacht und tja, dann kriegt man irgendwann das Gefühl ja, du bist nicht richtig hier. Durch Cinderella habe ich zum Ersten Mal eine Figur gesehen, die nur tu Gutes getan hat und trotzdem schlecht behandelt wurde. Man weiß ja die drei Bitches, also sprich Lady Anne und ihre Geschwister Anastasia und Trissela So und ja, sie hat aber trotzdem nie den Glauben an die Liebe und ihre Träume verloren. Sie ist freundlich geblieben, geduldig und sie schenkte auch denen Freundschaft, die eben auch Gutes getan haben. Und es war ihr auch ehrlich gesagt scheißegal, wer es ist, ob das eine Maus ist, ein Pferd, ein Hund oder sonst irgendwer. Das war schon auf jeden Fall ein relativ ja, sag ich mal, eine kleine Geste. Aber für mich, also den kleinen Richy, hat es auf jeden Fall eine große Wirkung gehabt. Und auch diese Werte spiegeln sich ja auch bis heute in mir wieder. Wer zum Beispiel mit mir ehrlich, respektvoll, freundlich jetzt wirklich einfach so begegnet, kriegt auch meine Freundschaft und mein Herz. Also das ist relativ einfach. Und mir ist es egal, wer du bist oder was du bist. Natürlich sprechen auch manche Sachen dagegen. Also wenn du jetzt diverse Hasstriaden um auf den an den Tag legst, dann ist das relativ schwierig für mich. Also das ist schon klar. Da kannst du mich auch so gernhaben, wie du möchtest. Ähm, ja, dann habe ich halt mit Sex eben angefangen zu sprechen. Und trotz meiner Auffälligkeiten habe ich immer wieder mich durchgekämpft. Also gerade so, doch tief in mir drin sitzt halt bis heute noch immer eine alte Wunde. Das Gefühl, einfach nicht zu passen. Auch jetzt, auch jetzt, wo ich jetzt mittlerweile alt bin. Also das hat sich nicht wirklich geändert und doch halte ich an meinen Werten fest und umso mehr denn je. Also Zusammenhalt, Nächstenliebe, Kreativität, Qualität und Emotionen. Ich glaube an die Magie. Liebe, Freundschaft und auch Akzeptanz. Ja und ja. Irgendwann, wenn man dann so ein Sechsjähriger ist, wird man auch mal älter. Und mit vierzehn, fünfzehn war das dann halt auch so ungefähr. In meiner Jugend habe ich dann immer in meiner größten Not wieder einen Halt gesucht und es habe ich auch tatsächlich in dem Disney Klassiker gefunden. Nicht nur einem, sondern zwei. Eine Heldin, die sich nichts daraus macht, dass sie Bücher liest und anders ist. Sie wusste und merkte auch, dass sie hier nicht reinpasst. Und hier rede ich von Bella aus dem Film Die Schöne und das Biest begleitet. In den neunziger und auch Anfang zwei tausend gab es noch eine Heldin, denn sie wusste, wenn sie sich so gibt, wie sie ist, bricht sie allen das Herz. Sie passte genauso wenig rein, macht ihr eigenes Ding, riskierte ihr eigenes Leben und schützte auch ihren Vater. Und was war am Ende? Sie wurde als Heldin Chinas gefeiert. Es geht hier um nichts Geringeres als um Mulan. Allein der Kultstatus mit Otto Stimme als Muschu war einfach legendär. Kann man nicht anders sagen. Das war einfach genial. Ja, Also Schande über deine Kuh und deine Familie. Natürlich. Das Lied Reflection ist auch tatsächlich ein Spiegel meiner selbst. Also sprich, ich wusste, hier passe ich nirgendwo rein. Und hier ging es um meine Zeit, in der ich selber auch merkte, ich passe nicht rein. Ich bin nicht wie die anderen und dementsprechend, das ich auch nicht in die Fußstapfen meiner Familie trete. Gerade in religiöser Hinsicht und doch auch heute merke ich, dass es halt eben so ist. Ich denke anders. Ich rede zu viel, vor allem zu ungefiltert. Das habe ich auch noch vor ein paar Tagen ja tatsächlich zu hören bekommen. Und da werde ich oft schief angeschaut. Falsch verstanden. Und oft gibt es einem das Gefühl, ich hätte schlechte Absichten. Doch das ist nicht der Fall. Und doch im Endeffekt habe ich gelernt, mir treu zu bleiben, weil sonst verliere ich mich schon wieder. Und das ist das Letzte, was passieren darf. Nur was hat das denn jetzt eigentlich jetzt mit Disney zu tun? Ja, mit Walt Disney verbinde ich einiges, die man auch auf die eigene Kappe eben so schreiben kann. Es war nicht nur der Erfinder von Parks und Figuren, sondern auch von Visionen, Werten und vielem mehr. Hier möchte ich einfach jetzt mal gerade auf die wichtigsten Sachen eingehen, indem ich eben bis heute noch prägen. Der erste Punkt wäre die Inklusion und Gemeinschaft. Disney glaubte daran, Orte zu schaffen, an denen sich je wirklich jeder willkommen heißt bzw fühlt. Sein Ziel war es, Erlebnisse zu bieten, die Menschen aller Altersgruppen und Hintergründe gemeinsam genießen können. Das ist für mich halt auch einfach Inklusion. Auch jetzt in der neumodischen Zeit ist es halt eben tatsächlich gelebt worden, bevor überhaupt Inklusion ein Begriff wurde. Innovation und Kreativität als zweiter Punkt. Komm, wir müssen schon sagen, der ist halt einfach Pionier und suchte ständig nach neuen Wegen, Geschichten zu erzählen. Sei es durch Technicolor, durch bahnbrechende Animationen oder auch die Animatronics, die waren einfach legendär. Er hat übrigens auch die Soundeffekte halt einfach in die in die Minifilme reingebracht mit Mickey und Minnie und co. Also das muss man auch einfach sagen. Für ihn bedeutete halt eben Kreativität auch Grenzen verschieben und nicht nur Inhalte schaffen. Da war ja auch ein neuer Rahmen geschaffen worden. Der dritte Punkt ist halt einfach die Empathie und die Menschlichkeit. Er wollte ja nicht nur unterhalten, sondern auch mit seinen mit seinem, sag ich mal, Zeichentrickfilmen auch berühren. Seine Geschichten sollten Hoffnung geben, Das Gute im Menschen zeigen und eine Verbindung schaffen. So von Herz zu Herz. Er hat schon gewusst, wie er mit Menschen emotional verkoppeln kann. Die Detailverliebtheit und auch die Qualität ist der Punkt. Vier Er war dafür bekannt, kein Detail dem Zufall zu überlassen. Ob im Film, in den Parks, es ist alles bis ins kleinste Detail durchdacht. Also da war halt Qualität halt eben kein Extra, sondern eine Haltung, das muss man schon sagen. Sein fünfter Punkt und damit kommen wir auch am besten zum Schluss, damit es nicht einfach zu viel wird. Und zwar fertig für ihn war ein Fremdwort. Also sprich, er hat immer ständiges Streben nach Verbesserung gehabt. Nach jedem Erfolg hat er sich auch gefragt Was kommt als nächstes? Was können wir verbessern? Neue Figuren, neue Konzepte, neue Erlebnisse. Immer weiter mit neuem Mut und vor allem mit Neugierde. Das hat mich auch immer sehr, sehr stark Ihm imponiert, wie man so schön sagt. Ja, was hat er denn, wie gesagt, jetzt auch mit den Werten zu tun? Ja, meine Werte sind tatsächlich auch die gleichen. Nichts war in derselben Dimension und auch sicher nicht fehlerfrei. Aber wer ist das denn schon? Und das soll auch nicht sein, Denn gerade die nicht Perfektion, eine Art perfektionistischer Art, ist ja das, was uns Menschen ausmacht. Menschlich und vor allem emotional. Und bis heute glaube ich daran, dass wir Menschen mit Haltung brauchen und nicht mit Perfektion. Selbst ich kann nicht stillstehen und erfinde mich stets neu. Nicht nur der Podcast oder die Videos, sondern auch das Bloggen und die Social Medias gehen mittlerweile neue Wege. Nur das Ding ist Die kennt keiner. Eduard ist zum Beispiel auch zu einer eigenständigen Figur geworden. Das ist dann halt eben auch eine Richtung, die auch nicht jeder kennt und auch nicht jeder gutheißt. Gerade im Fandom ist es halt eben so ein Ding, aber das Thema würde ich jetzt hier nicht aufmachen, weil dann haben wir die Büchse der Pandora aufgemacht. Und ja, so wie Disney hat, der hat ja auch seine Schattenseite. Nur er lernte dazu. Er glaubt an das Gute und er wollte, dass seine Menschen alle, dass seine Werke alle Menschen verbinden. Ach Mensch, Richle! Familien. Kinder, Großeltern. Dann Träumer, Denker. Egal woher sie kamen oder wie sie waren. Er ist und bleibt ein Visionär. Eines und viele weitere nicht gezählte Gründe sind das jetzt halt eben auch für mich. Nicht nur Unterhaltung, sondern auch ein Stück Zuhause für Menschen wie mich. Ich bin mir sicher, du hast auch schon solche Erfahrungen gemacht. Erzähl du doch mal auch einfach mal auf Facebook oder auf Instagram, was du so erlebt hast. Oder sprich mich einfach persönlich an! Würde mich mal interessieren, wo du deine Schlüsse ziehst. Weil auch gerade tätowierte Menschen haben ja auch ihre schönen Motive. Da habe ich ja zum Beispiel König der Löwen im Kopf oder auch Stitch. Das ist ja auch zum Beispiel ein Alien, Das ist ja sozusagen nie wirklich willkommen. Entschuldigung, jetzt habe ich einen Schluckauf. Ähm, ja, der eigentlich auch nicht willkommen war, bis Lilo kam. Sie hat ihn so genommen, wie er ist und hat geguckt, Wo können wir was verbessern? Und das ist menschlich. Wir können Menschen nur bis zum Kopf gucken, wenn wir versuchen zu verstehen Und wenn wir versuchen, andere Menschen einfach mit einem Herz zu begegnen, werden wir das auch so zurückkommen bekommen. Denn das, was man sät, bekommt man zurück. Und egal ob man jetzt auch mal Fehler macht, egal ob man jetzt auch mal Fauxpas macht, es gilt halt auch immer mal wieder auch den Menschen zu sagen, wo er dran ist, damit er auch die Chance kriegt, es sich einfach nochmal zu überlegen und zu verändern. Dann verändern kannst nur du dich selber und wenn du das möchtest, dann machst du das. Und ob es für dich auch diesen Wert hat, dann ist das gut. Wenn nicht, dann weißt du oder die andere Person, wo du dran bist und dann musst du überlegen kannst du damit oder kannst du damit nicht? Und damit wünsche ich dir auf jeden Fall ein super tolles Wochenende, falls du das schon am Wochenende hörst. Wenn nicht, dann einen guten Start in die neue Woche und wenn auch nicht, dann einfach ein super dolligen, wunderschönen Tag und ich hoffe es heißt sehr bald für dich Bienvenue a Disneyland Paris dein Ridgley. Freue mich auf jeden Fall wieder da zu sein. Hm, Hm hm.

My guest on the final episode of this season is Anne, Lady Glenconner.  Now 93, Lady Glenconner has lived to put it bluntly, one hell of a life. She was born in 1932, the eldest daughter of the 5th earl of Leicester and brought up in the early 20th century's rigid social hierarchy on the ancestral estate of Holkham Hall in Norfolk. Which, incidentally, she didn't inherit because primogeniture, of which more later.  The royal family were a part of her life from birth. She played with princess Margaret - a fellow naughty girl - in the gardens as a three year old. At just 17 she was a travelling salesperson for her mother's pottery business before she was called back to be a maid of honour at the Queen's Coronation. At 39 she became Princess Margaret's lady in waiting. A role she kept for more than 30 years, until the princess's death. And then, aged 87, she decided to write a book. That book, Lady In Waiting, was a bestseller on both sides of the atlantic, spending 35 weeks in the bestseller lists in the UK and three months in the states and going on to sell over a million copies. She has since written two murder mysteries and three more memoirs, the latest of which is the memoir come handbook, Manners and Mischief, an A-Z of a well-lived life. How much more life does this woman have up her sleeve? Plenty, I suspect. Lady Anne joined me to talk about her temptestuous life, the importance of lifelong friendship, knowing you're a disappointment from birth and the joy of suddenly being in the spotlight after spending her entire life in a supporting role. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including Manners & Mischief by Lady Glenconner as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

The Mayor arrives with Catesby and recoils in horror when Ratcliffe delivers Hastings' head. In order to keep her own, she promises to tell the citizens that Hastings was a traitor who deserved to die. Once she leaves, Richard tells Buckingham to spread the word that King Edward was father to countless illegitimate children, including the two Princes. Later, Richard is planted as a guest on the Maximum Rock-n-Roll Radio Show to pose as a devout Christian and give the impression that he does not want to be King unless the people demand it. Buckingham stages a call into the show to plead with Richard to take the throne, saying that if he doesn't, there will be rebellion. Richard pretends to be reluctant but eventually gives in. Later, outside The Tower parking garage, the Duchess, Elizabeth, Anne and Dorset assemble to visit the Princes, but Brackenbury refuses to let them in. Dorset flees to France to join forces with Richmond. Anne agrees to be crowned in order to save the Princes. Elizabeth goes to Sanctuary to save herself and the Duchess goes to her death. Later, King Richard sits on the throne at The Temple Beautiful with Buckingham at his side, celebrating their rise to power.

The young Prince Edward arrives at The Temple Beautiful and complains to Richard about his uncles imprisonment. Richard tells him his uncles Rivers and Dorset were dangerous. Edward protests but is interrupted by the arrival of the Mayor of London who greets him with flattery. Edward asks about the whereabouts of his mother and brother, the Duke of York. Hastings arrives and tells Edward his mother and brother are in sanctuary. Buckingham orders Hastings to bring York to them by force. The Cardinal protests but Buckingham convinces him there's no need for sanctuary under these circumstances. Alone with his uncle Richard, Edward asks where he and his brother will be staying before their coronation. Richard tells him they're to stay in the Tower. Edward protests but is interrupted by the arrival of his younger brother. Little York teases Richard until he learns they're going to the Tower. He starts to argue but Edward tells him not to fear. They're taken away. Richard and Buckingham call in Catesby to test Hastings' loyalty. Once alone, Richard promises Buckingham the Earldom of Hereford. Later that night, a messenger from Stanley arrives at Barrington Hall to warn Hastings that Richard is going to kill him. Hastings reassures him that Richard won't harm him. Catesby arrives and hears from Hastings that he won't support Richard taking the throne, even though he had his enemies (Rivers and Dorset) killed. Stanley rolls up and warns Hastings not to trust Richard. Buckingham saunters out to meet them and takes them to the Tower for the coronation. Elsewhere, in a warehouse basement in Pomfret, Rivers begs for his life as Ratcliffe drowns him.

Meanwhile, Dorset and Rivers rush to secure the safety of Prince Edward in Ludlow. At Rasputin Records, citizens fret over being ruled by a child King with Richard as his Protector. At home with her younger son, the Prince of York, Elizabeth gets a tattoo as she ruminates with the Duchess over their horrible state of affairs.

Shakespeare's plays are filled with unforgettable women—but too often, their voices are cut short. Ophelia never gets to defend herself. Gertrude never explains her choices. Lady Anne surrenders to Richard III in silence. In her new book, She Speaks: What Shakespeare's Women Might Have Said, acclaimed actor Dame Harriet Walter imagines what those characters might tell us if given the chance. Through original poems, Walter reimagines moments of silence, expands on fleeting lines, and provides depth to women who were left without a final word. Walter invites us to see Shakespeare's plays in a new light—reconsidering how we understand his female characters, and how their voices might transform the stories we thought we knew. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast. Published October 7, 2025. © Folger Shakespeare Library. All rights reserved. This episode was produced by Matt Frassica. Garland Scott is the executive producer. It was edited by Gail Kern Paster. We had help with web production from Paola García Acuña. Leonor Fernandez edits our transcripts. Final mixing services are provided by Clean Cuts at Three Seas, Inc. Dame Harriet Walter, DBE, is one of Britain's most esteemed Shakespearean actors, whose roles include Ophelia, Viola, Lady Macbeth, Cleopatra, Brutus, King Henry IV, and Prospero, among others.. She has received a Laurence Olivier Award, as well as numerous nominations, including a Tony Award nomination, three Primetime Emmy Awards, and a Screen Actors Guild Award. Walter is also well-known for her appearances in Sense and Sensibility, Atonement, Downton Abbey, The Crown, Succession, Killing Eve, and Ted Lasso, among many other notable projects. In 2011, she was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) for services to drama.

Queen Elizabeth replays a tape of her husband King Edward's band as she obsesses over his failing health. Her brother, Lord Rivers, tries to comfort her, as do her two sons from a previous marriage, Gray and Dorset. She tells them that the sons she conceived with Edward are still too young to rule, and that if her husband dies, the throne will go to Richard until the oldest son comes of age, putting her safety in jeopardy. Buckingham and Derby arrive to report that King Edward's health is improving and that he wants to make peace between Richard and Elizabeth's clans. Richard barges in with Hastings at his side, railing that he's being disrespected and that people are telling lies about him. Elizabeth does her best to defend herself against his accusation that she put Clarence in jail and that she is vying for the throne. As they argue, the old Queen Margaret arrives unseen and listens to them from outside the house, commenting bitterly to herself about how quickly power is lost. She finally confronts the group and berates Richard for the murders of her family before cursing everyone in the room, one by one. After she departs, Catesby enters to say that King Edward wants to talk to his family. Richard, left alone, celebrates his mischief, then hires two murderers to kill his brother Clarence in the Tower. There, Clarence tells Brackenbury (the jailer) about a nightmare he had in which he drowned trying to rescue Richard and was dragged down to hell.

The countdown to ANNE RICE, AN ALL SAINTS' DAY CELEBRATION continues. Your hosts continue to celebrate the incredible authors who generously offered our Premiere Party Person, Lady Anne, their peer tributes for the event's emotional documentary films celebrating her life and legacy. J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood novels are a global phenomenon, and the basis for a hit new television series, but their author is also one of Christopher's closest friends. Find out what happens when she meets Eric for the first time and the two are allowed to compare Christopher notes. The result is a rousing conversation about the incredible impact Anne's novels had on the iconic writer who brought vampires into the realm of romance fiction.

When you hear the name Bacon, you probably think of Sir Francis Bacon — philosopher, scientist, genius. But behind him stood an equally remarkable woman: his mother, Lady Anne Bacon (née Cooke). Born in the 1520s, Anne was one of the famous Cooke sisters of Gidea Hall, all of them classically educated at a level most Tudor men could only dream of. She mastered Latin, Greek, and even Italian, and grew up immersed in humanist thought. In 1553, Anne married Sir Nicholas Bacon, Lord Keeper of the Great Seal. Together they raised Anthony (the Tudor spy) and Francis (the great thinker), but Anne wasn't simply a background figure in their lives. She was a scholar, translator, and moral force in her own right. In this podcast, I explore: - Anne Bacon's extraordinary education and family background - Her marriage and role in one of Tudor England's most influential households - Her translation of John Jewel's Apologie, a landmark defence of Protestantism - Her surviving letters — over 90 — which reveal her piety, intellect, and maternal guidance - Why she deserves to be remembered as more than just “Francis Bacon's mother” Do you think women like Anne Bacon get enough credit in Tudor history? Let me know in the comments. If you enjoy learning about remarkable Tudor women, please like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you don't miss future podcasts. And for even more history — including exclusive talks, printable resources, and a monthly Tudor magazine — consider joining my channel membership on YouTube. #AnneBacon #FrancisBacon #TudorHistory #TudorWomen #CookeSisters #ElizabethanEngland #ProtestantReformation #Humanism #ClaireRidgway #AnneBoleynFiles

What mysteries lie beneath the waves, and can a journey across the sea bridge the gap between life and death? This month we take a look at two season 4 episodes that proclaim the mystery, intrigue, and uncertainty of the sea. Are you brave enough to dive into two of The Twilight Zone's most haunting maritime tales? In "The Thirty-Fathom Grave," a U.S. Navy ship discovers mysterious tapping sounds coming from a sunken submarine. Chief Bell becomes increasingly disturbed by the sounds, experiencing visions of his old crew members. It's revealed he was the sole survivor of that submarine's sinking in WWII, and the ghostly tapping represents his guilt-ridden past catching up with him. "Passage on the Lady Anne" follows a troubled married couple who book passage on an old ocean liner. They discover all other passengers are elderly and oddly content. The couple leaves the ship before realizing it was destined for a supernatural journey between life and death, taking its elderly passengers to their final destination. Set sail with us as we explore these spine-tingling episodes where the ocean becomes more than just endless waves - it's a gateway between worlds. From the haunting echoes of a World War II submarine to a mysterious final voyage on an aging ocean liner, these stories will make you question what lies in the deepest fathoms of both the sea and human consciousness. These episodes promise to leave you wondering about the true nature of guilt, redemption, and the thin line between this world and the next.   News Items: Serlingfest 2025 Rod Serling documentary to be teased at Serlingfest Connect with Entering the Fifth Dimension: Facebook community Follow us on Twitter Contribute Listener Feedback

Ali Stroker is a trailblazing actor and advocate who joined the Little Kids, Big Hearts podcast as a guest Qook-a-lacka on our episode focused on inclusion. Today, Ali is back — out of character, as her amazing self — to talk with LKBH Host Todd Loyd about her own experiences with disability and inclusion. ❤️ She reflects on what Scarlett and Zach said on the episode: "When I hear Scarlett talking about horseback riding: It felt like she was explaining something that was so normal. And that, to me, is progress."❤️ She shares her own personal motto — Turning Limitations into Opportunities: "It can apply to somebody with a disability or not because as human beings, we have limitations. It's part of existing in the world."  ❤️ She talks about being a mom with a disability — and how being a mom in a wheelchair affects her parenting and her son's independence. ❤️ She talks about the power of "inclusive playgrounds." "I never had one inclusive playground growing up, and to this day, I still go to the playground and I have this like funny feeling in my stomach because it was a place of confusion and shame and frustration for me as a child ... Every kid deserves that freedom and that ability to play in an outdoor space with their friends."❤️ She talks about a moment when she was in 1st grade and her PE teachers included her in a lesson on "how to skip," which changed her life. "Thirty-one years later, I still remember it because it felt like I was included and someone had taken a little bit of time to get creative and make me feel like I was learning a new school too, and that I could be a part of the group in moving...And that meant everything to me, everything!" ❤️ She talked about her children's book "Ali and the Sea Stars," which was based on her own experience as a six year old being introduced to musical theater by her neighbor on the Jersey Shore. "It basically set my entire life journey of  becoming a musical theater and actress and everything that I do now." ❤️ She shares advice for kids with disabilities who want to try something new that hasn't been done before. Ali Stroker is a Tony Award winner for her role as ‘Ado Annie' in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma!

On this kidventure episode, two kids — Scarlett and Zach — talk about their disabilities and share their experiences with inclusion (on inclusive playgrounds and in other contexts). As Scarlett explains, inclusion "means that everybody can play, no matter your disability or how you walk or how you roll or anything like that."After a chat on Earth, the kids and Todd travel on the colors of the rainbow to the Land of Qook-a-lackas, where they meet a Qook-a-lacka friend, Quinnly, who is trying to figure out how the Qook-a-lackas and their new neighbors, the Link-a-doos, can play TOGETHER. The Qook-a-lacka's favorite sport, Quibble, is played on the ground with a big ball — while the Link-a-doos' favorite sport, Loop-a-launch, is played in the sky with a little bouncy ball. The kids and Todd help Quinnly to brainstorm a whole new game (Quibble Launch!), which has special rules and a two tier playing field that is perfect for the new neighbors to play together!Little Kids, Big Hearts was THRILLED to be joined on this episode by guest star Ali Stroker, who plays the role of Quinnly. Ali Stroker is a Tony Award winner for her role as ‘Ado Annie' in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma!

Zurin Villanueva talks "Murder Mystery 2", playing Tina Turner in "Tina: The Tina Turner Musical", and the time she auditioned in front of Lin Manuel Miranda! About Zurin: On Broadway, television, and film Zurin Villanueva has been performing professionally from the age of 15. Her first professional role was reenacting the narratives of enslaved children for Nickelodeon's program Nick News. At 16, she won Amatuer Night at the Apollo with her tap group, Loud and Clear. She trained in ballet, jazz, tap and modern in New York City but most notably at the Dance Theatre of Harlem. At 17, she was awarded the American Theatre Wing scholarship for most promising students at LaGuardia High School for the Performing Arts as a Drama Major.  Zurin debuted on the professional stage at Arena Stage prior to graduating from the now Chadwick Boseman School Of Fine Arts at Howard University earning a BFA in Musical Theatre. Zurin made her Broadway debut amongst the living legends, Audra McDonald, Billy Porter, Brian Stokes Mitchell, choreographer Savion Glover and director George C. Wolfe in Shuffle Along.  Zurin's most cherished roles were Charlayne in Ain't Misbehavin', hand picked and directed by Andre DeShields.

Then went on to star as Josephine Baker in a new self-titled musical, directed and choreographed Maurice Hines, "the" rap dance icon of Hines, Hines and Dad. Since going to Broadway Zurin has continued non-stop. She performed as an original cast member in Mean Girls, The Musical, becoming the first Black Plastic "#blastic" when she debuted as Gretchen Wieners.

In this bonus episode, Jessica and Rachel interview author Lady Anne Glenconner on her new book and her very fascinating life, from being a Maid of Honor at Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, to a Lady In Waiting to Princess Margaret, and now a published author, having just completed her fourth book at the age of 90. This is an incredible interview you are sure to enjoy! Follow us on Instagram @podcastroyal Email is at hellopodcastroyal@gmail.com

Even though Anne Glenconner has been royal adjacent all her life she is far more than a pawn on the chessboard moving nimbly between the Queen, Princess Margaret, the new King, and scions of the ancient British aristocracy. She endured an abusive marriage, the loss of two children, and plenty of tears to go along with the titles.

We're joined by Senior Properties Historian Steven Brindle and historian Karen Hearn to discuss the story of Lady Anne Clifford (1590–1676). As High Sheriff of Westmorland and the last member of one of England's great medieval dynasties, she became something of a legend in her own lifetime and has remained a celebrated figure in the history of northern England ever since. We'll reveal how, after fighting a 40-year battle for her right to inherit her father's estates, she devoted herself to restoring and enhancing the castles and churches on her lands.

She speaks frankly about her marriage overshadowed by an abusive husband and the death of two sons.Warning: Contains frank discussion of domestic violence, death, brothels and violence to animals (eels)https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anne-GlenconnerLinks for additional support (also on Past Imperfect podcast pages) Domestic abusewww.womensaid.org.ukDomestic Abuse Help · National Centre for Domestic Violence (ncdv.org.uk)Child Abusehttps://www.nspcc.org.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

In a year where the Royal Family has never been more in focus, we have another insight from one closest to them. We first talked to Lady Anne Glenconner back in 2019 when she released her memoir Lady In Waiting. She, of course, was the Lady in Waiting to Princess Margaret and was the Maid of Honour at Queen Elizabeth II's coronation. Now - she's telling more of her story with Whatever Next - which serves as a follow up to her original memoir. Lady Anne Glenconner joined Tim Dower from Britain.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we are in conversation with the architect, writer, and Professor of Architecture at Yale, Keller Easterling. Her books include Extrastatecraft: The Power of Infrastructure Space (Verso, 2014); Enduring Innocence: Global Architecture and its Political Masquerades (MIT, 2005); and her latest Medium Design: Knowing How to Work on the World, to which we dedicate special attention to in this episode.I think Easterling's project boils down to how architecture and design can actually intervene and/or contribute to the cultural change around social justice and ecological crises; through thinking about, and ‘knowing-how' to work the systems at play. So designing within interplay; rather than the total compliance and submission on behalf of the architectural profession is what she seeks. She redirects our attention to the spatial dimension of how things are arranged, be it politically, financially, or socially. Episode Notes & Linkshttp://kellereasterling.com/ In Extrastatecraft: The Power of Infrastructure Space, Keller Easterling reveals the nexus of emerging governmental and corporate forces buried within the concrete and fiber-optics of our modern habitat. https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/enduring-innocence http://kellereasterling.com/books/extrastatecraft-the-power-of-infrastructure-spaceIn Enduring Innocence, Keller Easterling tells the stories of outlaw "spatial products"—resorts, information technology campuses, retail chains, golf courses, ports, and other hybrid spaces that exist outside normal constituencies and jurisdictions—in difficult political situations around the world. https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/enduring-innocenceMedium Design by Keller Easterling looks not to new technologies for innovation but rather to sophisticated relationships between emergent and incumbent technologies.

This is episode 43 and we're dealing with the arrival of the English at the Cape. As you know, the Peninsular had become more important in the eyes of the English as they fought a lengthy war against France at the end of the 18th Century – a war that was to continue through until Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo in 1815. The British would occupy the Cape twice of course and when they arrived in 1795 the region was convulsed by disorder on the frontiers. The Khoekhoe rose up twice in conjunction with the amaXhosa as we're going to hear, while the frontier settlers were already in revolt by the time the British arrived. Lady Anne Barnard had accompanied her husband – Macartney's colonial secretary Andrew Barnard to the Cape. Also present on behalf of George Third was John Barrow – a man who was to have a significant effect on the South Africa and world affairs. He was described as extremely intelligent, an amateur scientist, naturalist, geographer, a man of the enlightenment if there ever was one. He'd already revealed great gifts of intelligence gathering during his time in China and would now be called on to collect more intelligence on the frontier of South Africa.

This is episode 42 and the English have just seized the Cape. Remember at the time they were in a world war with the French and revolutionary fervour had swept the world with its populist refrain, its' berets of southern France and Liberte Equalite Fraternite narrative. This had swept the globe – all the way to Graaff-Reinet in the upper Zuurveld on the Cape frontier where the trekboers were motivated to throw off the corrupt yoke of the VOC – and then in turn, the new English rule. As we heard last episode, Major General Craig had ensconsed himself in Cape Town as the military governor and was about to take action against the Boers in Graaff-Reinet when intelligence reports indicated in January 1796 that the Batavians and their French allies were fitting out an expedition to retake Cape Town. As you've also heard, the British sent a strong naval and infantry force to the Cape and by July 1796 there were 8 400 troops stationed there with another 1000 on their way. There were now fourteen warships patrolling the seaways around the Cape. So the Batavian squadron of eight warships and a cargo vessel took five months to sail to the Cape because its commander, Rear Admiral Engelbertus Lucas had to evade British patrols. On the 6th August 1796 he anchored in Saldanha Bay on the west coast north of Cape Town. Lucas had anticipated support from a French squadron but they had decided to bypass mainland Africa and head straight to the Isle de France – or Mauritius as we know it today. By the 1790s a powerful farmer by the name of Jacob Van Reenen had built his fortune in landholdings, meat trade and the production and sale of alcohol. On his death in 1793, Jacob left a number of sons, all of whom rose to prominence in Cape society. One son called Dirk, built the largest and most successful wine businesses there, while two others sons, Jacobus Gijsbert and Sebastiaan, went into the lucrative meat merchanting business.
