Afgelopen week overleed presenator Koos Postema op 93-jarige leeftijd. Hij was hiet alleen bekend van televisie, maar presenteerde ook jarenlang op de radio Met Het Oog Op Morgen en Langs de Lijn. Oud-collega Ferry de Groot haalde herinneringen op aan deze bevlogen presentator, die soms ook een 'schavuit' durfde te zijn. Admiraal Michiel de Ruyter is een van onze bekendste zeehelden. Hij overleed 350 jaar geleden. Nazaat Frits de Ruyter de Wildt vertelde onder meer over de stem van de admiraal.  En goede doelen, zoals het KWF en Artsen zonder Grenzen, ontvangen steeds meer geld uit erfenissen en minder uit donaties. Joep Verboeket, directeur van Kinderfonds MAMAS vertelt waarom dat zo is.

De stap naar Etenslessen heeft ze geen seconde spijt van. Ze vertelt wat ze lastig vond aan mijn manier van coachen, maar ook waarom haar dat juist heeft gebracht waar ze nu staat.

Hij moet binnen twee maanden met Zweefkees naar het Land van de Tovenaressen vliegen, anders zal het bijzondere hotel veranderen in een doodnormaal, levenloos gebouw.Met zijn beste vrienden, Essie en Sim, en de oude hulp Norma, gaat hij op weg. De reis is bepaald niet zonder gevaar en voert langs moerasheksen, draken, boselfen en boze feeën, reuzen, dwergen en kreupel stronkers, om maar een paar van de wezens te noemen die Kalani en zijn vrienden tegenkomen. Zal het Kalani lukken om het hotel te redden?

Oort is deze maand begonnen als Supporters Liaison Officer (SLO) bij de club, oftewel de schakel tussen supporters, clubbestuur en andere partijen rondom FC Emmen. „Ik ging als jonge jongetje met papa aan de hand naar het stadion. Toen voelde een zevende plek of overwinning tegen Veendam als een kampioensfeest. Na de promotie snapte de buitenwereld ook waarom ik zo gek kon zijn van de club”, vertelt Oort.

To cap off the end of our release of the stories from The Blue Fairy Book, in this episode we look back at who Leonora and Andrew Lang were, why anybody should care, and then we go back and trace the provenance of these tales.Beyond just identifying where they seem to have come from, we also explore how the Lang fairy stories work a little like a kaleidoscope, with the same pieces of coloured glass landing in different orders to create dramatically different outcomes.We speak about the ones we really liked, the ones which left us less excited, and why - while also debating what made the Langs so obsessed with ATU Tale Type 250, The Monstrous Husband...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?REGISTER 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.

Radiomaker Sjors Fröhlich maakte één van de opvallendste carrièreswitches van de afgelopen jaren: hij verliet de radio en werd burgemeester. Bij zijn sollicitatie was hij er echter niet van overtuigd dat hij ook echt burgemeester zou worden. 'Ik was geen logische kandidaat. Ik had geen politie-bestuurlijke ervaring. Het lag totaal niet voor de hand om een beginnende zij-instromer burgemeester te laten zijn in fusiegemeente Vijfheerenlanden.' Toch is het hem gelukt, misschien wel door -zoals we dat nu noemen- manifesteren. Hij vertelt erover in deze podcast. Het meest beslissende carrièremoment van Sjors Fröhlich was al heel wat eerder. Toen hij blijvende stemproblemen bleek te hebben, besloot hij te stoppen met presenteren op de radio. Het heeft er uiteindelijk toe geleid dat hij meer in leidinggevende functies terechtkwam, waaronder hoofdredacteur van BNR Nieuwsradio. Toch duurde het even voordat die knop omging. CV van Sjors Fröhlich Al op 14-jarige leeftijd begint Sjors Fröhlich met radio maken als hij het programma Tussenuur presenteert op Hilversum 3. Samen met Peter Plaisir vormt hij op die zender het duo The Magic Friends. Hij wordt vervolgens sportverslaggever voor Langs de Lijn en doet achter op de motor verslag van de Tour de France, en maakt radioprogramma's zoals Cappucino en Stand.NL. Daarna wordt hij hoofdredacteur van BNR Nieuwsradio en uiteindelijk burgemeester van zijn eigen gemeente, Vijfheerenlanden.

A take on the East of the Sun and West of Moon tale type from north of the border.When the Black Bull of Norroway turns up to whisk the youngest daughter off to seek her fortune, she'd better not move a hand or a foot when the air turns blue...This story is written in dialect, so in the spirit intended by the Langs, we have narrated it in dialect, with apologies to our Scottish friends.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.

Annemieke Bosman in gesprek met programmamaker Ruben Terlou. Na de succesvolle reeks Chinese dromen en Langs de nieuwe zijde route keert Ruben Terlou terug naar China en de landen rond de Zuid-Chinese Zee, het knooppunt van misschien wel 's werelds belangrijkste handelsroute en het toneel van snel oplopende spanningen. Terwijl China zijn greep op de zee en eilanden verstevigt en Taiwan, de Filipijnen en Vietnam zich bedreigd voelen, onderzoekt Ruben in acht afleveringen wat deze machtsstrijd betekent voor de mensen die langs de branding van de Zuid-Chinese Zee wonen. De nieuwe reeks heet Ruben langs de Zuid-Chinese Zee is vanaf 11 januari 2026 iedere zondagavond te zien bij de VPRO op NPO 2.

Programmamaker Ruben Terlou en oud-voetbalinternational Khalid Boulahrouz zijn zondag te gast op De Perstribune bij presentator Pieter van der Wielen. Ruben Terlou is opgeleid als arts en is in zijn vrije tijd een fervent vogelaar - maar we kennen hem vooral als fotograaf, programmamaker en China-deskundige. Al na zijn middelbare school trok hij in China het avontuur tegemoet. Het land liet hem nooit meer los, hij leerde Mandarijn en maakte er de tv-series Langs de Oevers van de Yangtze en Door het hart van China. Nu – in een tijd dat de wereld lijkt worden verdeeld in invloedssferen – is hij terug met een achtdelige docureeks: Ruben Langs de Zuid-Chinese Zee. Khalid Bouhlarouz was een spijkerharde maar toch ook stijlvolle verdediger die onder meer speelde bij RKC, HSV, Chelsea, Sevilla en Feyenoord. Hij speelde ook 35 interlands voor Oranje en hij was erbij op de EK's en WK's van 2006, 2008 en 2010. Na zijn actieve loopbaan, leek hij te kiezen voor een carriere als trainer, maar inmiddels lijkt hij gelukkiger te zijn in een rol als analist. Dat doet hij nu voor Ziggo Sport – waar hij ons de afgelopen weken door het toernooi om de Afrika Cup begeleidde.

Enkel en alleen voor China zelf; lastige buren lopen alleen maar in de weg. Soms zelf bewust. Want waarom is deze tuin eigenlijk alleen van China? Hij was toch gemeenschappelijk? En bovendien, de huizen van de buren staan veel dichterbij. Maar ja, bel bij Beijing aan om te klagen en voor je het weet bijt de hond een gat in je broek. Of erger.

For the first Lang Fairy Tales episode of this 'between series break' we have an absolute classic - The Goose Girl.If you like talking decapitated horse heads, cheeky goose boys and a good ol' fashioned tale of comeuppance, this one's definitely for you.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.

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!!
