For the second Lang Fairy Tales episode of this 'between series break' we have a less well-known one for you - Prince Darling.It's a tale which reminds us that having a great father, phenomenal wealth, and the Fairy Truth on your side doesn't mean you will grow up to be a good person - and that sometimes being turned into a terrifying chimera is the only way to ensure your self-improvement!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastREGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Felix Hamer, beter bekend als Electric Felix, duikt met volle overtuiging in alles wat met elektrisch rijden te maken heeft. Hij test, reist en schrijft over EV’s alsof het zijn tweede natuur is. Deze keer deelt hij zijn ervaringen uit China, waar laadpleinen 24 uur per dag volstaan en snelladen nog geen dubbeltje kost. Ondertussen worstelt Europa met ouderwetse merken, onduidelijke prijzen en te weinig palen. Randal vertelt hoe zijn beeld van elektrisch rijden compleet veranderde na een jaar Tesla. Van range anxiety naar laadrust, zolang je maar weet waar je moet zijn. Jurian fileert de Europese infrastructuur en Felix spaart de autobranche niet.

Voor zijn nieuwe serie ‘Langs de oevers van de Zuid-Chinese Zee' was documentairemaker Ruben Terlou drie jaar lang op reis. Hij zat op krakkemikkige boten, sprak mensen die hun eeuwenlange toegang tot de zee zagen verdwijnen en maakte de intimidatie van de Chinese marine van dichtbij mee. In deze aflevering van ‘Achter de Frontlinie' vertelt hij hoe Xi Jinping op het water zijn spierballen laat zien. De Chinese marine intimideert Filipijnse vissers, patrouilleert eilanden in internationale wateren en bouwt op allerlei plekken militaire bases. Abdou vraagt hem ook naar zijn ervaringen in het door oorlog verscheurde Myanmar en waarom hij na zoveel werk niet op vakantie, maar op zoek ging naar een kleine vogel op een enorme oceaan.

Eigar Langsø taler i menigheten Norge for Kristus 23.11.2025.

Goof is op een radeloze queeste langs godvergeten Spaanse Aeropuortos. Vaak interessant genoeg voorzien van belendende activiteit in de vorm van tweedehands-auto-handelaren, schietclubs & dubieuze horeca. Met baanlengten van 300 tot 9000 meter. Respectievelijk aangelegd voor Oekraïense Aeroprakts en/of Amerikaanse Space Shuttles. Maar belangrijker: de Drone-Dreiging! In Nederland! Wat kunnen we doen? Hadden we dit-of-dat? En wat nu? Heel ander verhaal: ‘Tenerife'. De gevolgen daarvan voor de leerling-piloot…de beruchte Multicrew Cursus. Leren om zinvol om te gaan met collega's, superieuren en/of ondergeschikten. Blijft actueel, zo blijkt bij vrijwel elk incident in de Grote Luchtvaart. By the way: dat vreselijke filmpje van de MD-11 die een motor verliest op Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Echt of AI? En doet dat er toe? Eigenlijk? En lijkt dat niet verdomd veel op de Bijlmerramp? Dan: Rotax-diefstal? Wie is de dief, en waarom? En komen die sportvliegtuig-motortjes weer ongevraagd retour, ingebouwd in drones? Richting Kiev? Of richting Volkel? Wie zal het zeggen? Juist: Goof en Goot!

Die minister van werke en vervoer, Veikko Nekundi, sê die ministerie beplan om weerkaatsers vir diere in gemeenskaplike areas in te stel om nagtelike padongelukke wat deur vrylopende diere veroorsaak word, te verminder. Nekundi het tydens die inbedryfstelling van die DR1635-pad in Epukiro gesê dat verkryging reeds aan die gang is om die weerkaatsers aan te koop en dat dit op honde, bokke, skape, koeie, donkies en perde geplaas sal word. Hy het gesê dat 'n toetsfase eers uitgevoer sal word en indien die resultate goed is, sal die weerkaatsers op alle diere gebruik word.

De Verenigde Staten en president Donald Trump stonden deze week centraal in het nieuws. Het 28-puntenplan dat zou moeten leiden tot een einde aan de oorlog in Oekraïne, de Epstein-files, het vernietigen van drugsboten in Zuid-Amerika en het bezoek van de Saoedische prins Bin Salman. Al deze onderwerpen komen langs in het nieuwsforum van Langs de Lijn & Omstreken, met: - Carol Rock, Amerikakenner  - Paul Verhagen, geopolitiek analist bij het Haags Centrum voor Strategische Studies - Kenneth Manusama, Amerikakenner, gespecialiseerd in Amerikaans staatsrecht 

Wie woont er nou in Lull? In De Hel? In Poepershoek? Wat betekenen die namen eigenlijk en waarom bestaan ze nog steeds? Op zoek naar de verhalen achter de meest curieuze plaatsnamen van Nederland (en een vleugje Vlaanderen), trok schrijver en fotograaf Paul Vreuls langs de rafelranden van de kaart.

Op de daken in de Antwerpen is een dakboerderij gecreëerd. Het is een groene oase middenin de stad. Langs de kust wordt ons land momenteel overspoeld door pimpelmezen uit noordelijke streken. Soms wel tienduizenden per dag. Samen met paleoklimatoloog Johan Vellekoop gaan we voor de podcast 'Zo Klonk Nederland' terug naar 60 miljoen jaar geleden. En verder: groene boa's met een vuurwapen, beerdiertjes en een klimaatkomedie . De column is deze week van Dichtwater. Vroege Vogels Radio op NPO Radio 1 wordt zondag gepresenteerd door Menno Bentveld van 7.00 tot 10.00 uur vanuit het Groene Huis te Amersfoort.

Ruben Terlou reist in zijn nieuwe documentaireserie ‘De verborgen strijd van Myanmar' naar het hart van een land dat al decennia gebukt gaat onder oorlog en onderdrukking. Na de militaire staatsgreep in 2021 staat een jonge generatie op. In de driedelige VPRO-serie weten Terlou en cameraman Bruce Amende door te dringen tot rebellengebied en verschaffen zo een zeldzame blik op de verborgen strijd van Myanmar én de menselijke veerkracht van zijn bevolking. Ruben Terlou is bekend van documentaireseries als ‘Langs de oevers van de Yangtze', ‘Door het hart van China' en ‘De wereld van de Chinezen'. Presentatie: Willemijn Veenhoven

Located just 10 miles west of Horseshoe Curve the “Station Inn” is a unique bed-and-breakfast alongside the old Pennsylvania Railroad mainline. Built in 1866 only a dozen years after the completion of the “Curve,” it became a sanctuary for weary travelers headed east or west and a summer retreat for many folks that lived in the Pittsburgh area. Run by Alex Lang and his wife Leah, it's become their passion of carrying on the tradition of Tom Davis who originally turned the inn into a rail fanning hot-spot in 1993. Tom was a dear family friend of the Langs and when he passed away, it seemed only natural for them to take over and continue on the tradition that had been started so many years earlier. Alex has been on the podcast before, and this episode is just as entertaining and informative as ever. Enjoy!!

For the final Lang Fairy Tales episode of this 'between series break' we have another double bill for you!We begin with Snow White and Rose Red. And if you thought the recent Disney adaptation missed the mark compared to the original, you need to check out the original and imagine how different and brilliant a film they could have made.Then it's time for another tiddler: Toads and Diamonds, which plays with similar ideas, including models of sisterhood - and this one we would truly love the 'House of Mouse' to have a go at! If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastThree Ravens is a myth and folklore podcast hosted by Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux.In each Monday episode we explore a historic county, digging into heritage, folklore and traditions, then we tell a new version of a legend from that county.

Come inside, children!Today, to start a new week with a bang, we present an all-time Hall of Fame fairytale: Hansel and Gretel. If you listened to Little Thumb last week, note how this time it's the father who is sympathetic instead of the mother; also, while 'Little Thumb' encountered a masculine flesh-eating other, this week it's a feminine one.They're partner tales - but not the same one. Why?Also, really sorry about the slight buzz on Eleanor's vocal. We've bought some new microphone cables, so it hopefully won't happen again!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

And for our final Lang Fairy Tale of the week, we warmly recommend The Forty Thieves. It's a story that starts with two brothers, then becomes a spiral of theft, depression, chalk drawings, and cold blooded murder.Say what you like about Ali Baba, but Morgiana is the real hero here!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

A new week begins with a double-bill of Lang Fairy Tales - both pretty cat-focused. The Master Cat; or Puss in Boots introduces us to a frankly psychopathic, murderous, criminal mastermind of a feline, before The History of Whittington is much more about swapping cats for more valuable things, domestic violence, and the apparent honesty of English merchants. We hope you enjoy. And also that you feel less awkward about Martin saying "Pussy" a whole bunch than he does...If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

To cap off this momentous week, we have another Lang Fairy Tale for your listening pleasure: Beauty and the Beast - a tale of a quite emo monster, a young woman who has wonderful dreams, and rather greedy siblings.

Our seventh Lang Fairy Tale is one a short one but a good one: Why The Sea Is Salt - a quest for earthly happiness through the power of cured meats, seasoning, and a magical hand-mill that can make anything. Just don't ask us where the Old Man came from, or what happened to him... If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Hosted on Acast.
