In the heart of London's wealthy Mayfair district, where Georgian townhouses stand as testaments of history, one address casts a shadow darker than the rest: 50 Berkeley Square. This unassuming four-story building, constructed in 1740 by architect William Kent, has earned a chilling reputation as one of the most haunted houses in Britain. For nearly two centuries, tales of a malevolent, shapeless entity have gripped the imaginations of Londoners, blending folklore, tragedy, and inexplicable horror. Drawing from documented accounts, newspaper clippings, and paranormal investigations, we delve Within the Mist of London and into the spine-chilling legend of the Nameless Thing of 50 Berkeley Square, a creature that defies reason and leaves a trail of madness and death in its wake.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.

When security guards spotted children in Victorian clothing dancing in circles at midnight on a muddy construction site, they approached to investigate - only to watch the kids vanish into thin air, leaving no footprints in the mud where they'd been playing. And that's just one ghostly incident on the A616 – Britain's most haunted road.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: It's a stretch of road that only opened in 1988 to connect two existing roads, but it is known for being one of the deadliest roads in all of Britain… and one of the most haunted places in the world. The official designation is the A616… but most people know it as the Stocksbridge Bypass. (The Deadly Stocksbridge Bypass) *** 
Experiencing something strange is one thing. Experiencing two strange things in two different places might be called a coincidence. But when you experience three strange things in three different places, as Chet Guthrie did – you have to wonder if maybe the weirdness if following you around. (Three Events In Three Places of Really Weird Happenings) *** The Georgian Britains were obsessed with clean air, which was not surprising… because there was practically no clean air to obsess about. Even less-so in and around the cemeteries. (The Stench of Georgian Graveyards) *** A woman typically carries a baby for nine months before pregnancy. Sometimes a bit longer, sometimes a bit shorter, but that's the average. Technology has made it possible for the baby to be born much sooner if complications were to arise, and still survive to be a healthy child. But we might have a new record on shortest pregnancy. One woman in Indonesia is claiming she gave birth after being pregnant for only one hour. (The One Hour Pregnancy) *** Heavy fog is commonplace in London, and in 1952 one particular fog rolled in for a full five days, hovering over the city. But when it finally dissipated, over 12,000 Londoners lay dead. (The Deadly Fog of 1952) *** A borrowed gun, romantically linked cousins, and a rigged jury – all the makings of a great murder trial in 1887 New Jersey. (A Mount Holly Tragedy) *** Here's an idea on how to fight the black plague… throat lozenges… made from toad vomit! Hey, it was good enough for Isaac Newton! It was his own recipe!

Drag queen and performer Tiara Skye isn't just known for her good looks and imitable style, she's also got the gift of the gab, so much so that she has any Londoner in fits of laughter within seconds of talking to them, no matter how outlandish her questions first appear to be. As a born performer, it would be no surprise then that the likes of Beyonce, The Pussycat Dolls and Britney Spears have helped Skye become the woman she was always meant to be. When it comes to influences, pop first, everything else second. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Abriss mit Test Icicles, Tradition als Lightspeed Champion, Zukunft mit Blood Orange. So in etwa die Schlagworte zur Karriere von Tausendsassa Dev Hynes. Die Fühler des Londoners mit Sitz in NYC reichen unter anderem bis Britney Spears und Solange Knowles. Sein 5. Album ist beeindruckend ruhig... ...und höchst faszinierend besetzt: Caroline Polachek, Tirzah, Ira Kaplan von Yo La Tengo, Brendan Yates von Turnstile, Lorde oder Vini Reilly von The Durutti Column helfen Hynes, seine träumerischen Grübeleien über Vergangenheit, Nostalgie, Verlust und Herkunft zu vergolden.

On this day in Tudor history, 3rd September 1553, Edward Courtenay was created Earl of Devon by Queen Mary I. It was a stunning reversal of fortune for a man who had spent 15 years imprisoned in the Tower of London after his father, the Marquess of Exeter, was executed for treason. In this podcast, I trace the extraordinary life of Edward Courtenay: His royal blood as a great-grandson of King Edward IV His childhood imprisonment and forgotten years in the Tower His dazzling restoration under Mary I — knighted, cheered by Londoners, even carrying the sword of state at Mary's coronation Hopes that he might marry Mary (or even Elizabeth) instead of Philip of Spain His entanglement in Wyatt's Rebellion and return to prison Exile abroad and rumours of conspiracies, assassination plots… and finally poison His sudden death in Padua in 1556, aged just thirty Courtenay's story is one of royal promise turned to tragedy — a man hailed as “the flower of English nobility,” yet destined to be remembered as a prisoner, pawn, and victim of Tudor politics. Do you think Edward Courtenay could ever have been a successful husband for Mary or Elizabeth? Share your thoughts in the comments!

The Wars of the Roses are warming up, and London is trying NOT to pick a side… but the Queen is unleashing a smart campaign upon the city, turning Livery Companies upon one another, and political scandle rocks the community. This chapter is an examination into the full reasons why London ended up picking the side it did, as we immerse ourselves in the complicated world of the late 1450's- dodgy Italians in London, dodgy Londoners in Southampton, a NEW war starting up in the north and medieval pirates making the city of London swoon… welcome to the chaos.

Send us a textEpisode 216He was a giant of a man, both in size and in reputation. Peter Grant, the manager who turned Led Zeppelin into the biggest band on the planet, wasn't cut from the same cloth as other music executives. Fiercely loyal, brutally protective, and unafraid of confrontation, he ripped up the old rules of the music business and wrote new ones that shifted power from the record labels to the artists. But behind the legend of smashed bootlegs, stormed offices, and backstage intimidation lies the story of a working-class Londoner who fought his way from nightclub bouncer to the most feared and influential manager in rock history.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com

The Treasury is considering a new tax on the sale of homes worth more than £500,000 as a step towards a radical overhaul of stamp duty and council tax - although no final decision has been made. With half of all home sales over £500,000 in London, it would have a disproportionate impact on the capital. The Standard's Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford has the latest. And in part two, male-scepticism is rife among straight female daters, with many women giving up on relationships entirely. But do they really have the worse end of the stick, or is it just as hard for guys? Freelance journalist Arielle Domb joins us to share her findings after interviewing some of London's bachelors about the state of modern dating. Hosted on Acast.

A Waterloo-based pub has raised eyebrows among Londoners after it introduced an extra service charge for all purchases.

The modern music critic is the biggest coward going. If it ticks the right boxes, they worship it out of fear. That's the only reason for the insane level of universal acclaim this album from the very talented Londoner has got. I found it difficult to get through, bland, almost Beiber-esque modern mainstream pop-R&B/Rap, and it definitely doesn't live up to it's title and theme. It feels more like the day-time TV of Black British Music.

Co-creator of the award-winning 'Adventures on Trains' and 'Isaac Turner Investigates' series, he writes fact-based mystery and adventure stories for the young and young at heart.

From JP Morgan spreadsheets to hand-picking olive oil in Crete, Andreas Labridis has built a modern Greek food empire in London — and he's only just getting started. In this fascinating conversation, the Opso and Kima co-founder recalls the wild early days of Opso, when guests would come expecting smashed plates and Zorba music, and how he set out to show the city what modern Greek dining could truly be. He shares the thinking behind Kima's fin-to-gill philosophy, a bold approach to seafood that uses every possible part of the fish to create dishes that are as sustainable as they are delicious.Andreas explains how a gamble on Greek brunch — complete with house-made pastries, breads, and the now-legendary bugatza — turned into queues snaking around the block, and why he's on a mission to introduce Londoners to Greece's winter cuisine, from rich stews to mountain game. He speaks candidly about the behind-the-scenes reality of running restaurants under London's punishing tax and cost pressures, revealing just how tight the margins can be even for a thriving group.We also travel with him back to Athens, where he shares his favourite culinary gems — the places locals really go — and the wave of young chefs reshaping the city's food scene. Along the way, there are stories of nightmare service days, quirky customer encounters, and the chef partnerships that have helped fuel his success. Andreas also lets loose on food fads (including his pet hate for putting caviar on everything) and pays homage to a Hall-of-Fame dish of snails with rye, bacon and pesto that blew his mind.If this episode leaves you hungry, book a table at Opso for modern Greek brilliance, or cross the street to Kima for a sustainable seafood experience unlike any other. And for a taste of their genius at home, pick up the Opso cookbook, Modern Greek Food — the next best thing to being there.---------Please leave us a great rating and a comment and share it with your friends - it really helps us grow as a show.If you're in the industry and are looking for the greatest POS system in the world than look no further as Blinq are tearing up the rulebook—no long-term contracts, no hidden fees, and no per-device charges.Just £49 a month for unlimited devices and 24/7 UK-based support that's always there, in person when you need it.Built for hospitality, by hospitality, blinq is the fastest, easiest POS system on the market—so intuitive, anyone can use it.

Seven and a half exhilarating hours from one of modern club's sharpest. Tim Reaper's mammoth entry for RA.1000 is all about range. You thought the Future Retro London boss was just a jungle and hardcore head? Think again. The mix's infinite-scroll tracklist (the longest we've ever published in full!) includes a who's who of top-rate producers, from A Guy Called Gerald and Cari Lekebusch to Batu, Mia Koden and the one and only Shackleton. Opening with weighty grime and ending on head-spinning drum & bass, the mix journeys through US club, wobbly dubstep, classic techno and, of course, many shades of jungle. Rather than go the easy route, the Londoner approached the assignment with the curiosity, integrity and vulnerability of fellow shapeshifters like dBridge, Calibre and ASC. "The idea was to represent other styles of electronic music that I've been a bit self-conscious about openly expressing my interest in," he told RA. RA.1000 isn't just another side of Tim Reaper's artistry—it's a full and verdant spectrum. And thankfully for us, it feels like only the beginning. @tim-reaper Find the interview and tracklist at ra.co/podcast/1012.

Ok. Diebstahl ist vielleicht ein bisschen übertrieben. (Clickbait? Ernsthaft??). Aber Arsenal hat wirklich eine Rakete verpflichtet, die bislang niemand so wirklich auf dem Schirm hatte.

Recorded live at the PSE-CEPR Policy Forum 2025.  Now that many of us work part or all our week at home, does that mean we want to move to a different area, or a larger house? And what is the effect on housing for those who cannot work from home? Morgane Richard of Stanford has researched how Londoners sought out new homes post-Covid to match their flexible work arrangements. She tells Tim Phillips what her models tell us about the long-run impact of their new working lives on house prices and rents for everyone living in, and on the edge of, the city.

This is a weird one, so we're just going to lay it out here without getting cutesy about it. Chris Langham was a writer on The Muppet Show, and he filled in at the last minute when the scheduled guest star set himself on fire (really!). Later, he was also a convicted sex offender, which is why (we assume) this episode isn't on Disney+. (Anything goes! …see, that would've been weird.) We're completists, so we wanted to cover it anyway, and we hope you'll join us and very special guest star Shane Keating while we talk around Langham and get into the delightful “Friendship,” possibly racist Londoners, and one wild gnu. https://muppeturgy,com/episodes/chris-langham

Ever heard of a man so committed to eating for free that he made it a full-time job and a criminal record? Meet Edward Dando, the 19th-century Londoner who scammed his way through more oysters than a hangry TikTok influencer with a seafood sponsorship.In this Spill, we dive into the (surprisingly well-documented) life of a dude who got drunk, smashed shellfish, stiffed the bill, and then asked for more, like some kind of Victorian-era Chad. Was he a folk hero? A chaotic grifter? A man with a death wish and a stomach of steel?

When we think of Shakespeare collaborating with another writer, the name John Fletcher quickly comes to mind. Together they penned Two Noble Kinsmen, All is True (also known as Henry VIII), and the now-lost play Cardenio. But what do we actually know about the working relationship between these two men? Did they sit down side-by-side at a table to write, or pass drafts back and forth in letters? Thanks to new research into the living arrangements of early modern Londoners, we have fresh insight into the possibility that Fletcher and Shakespeare were not just professional collaborators—but next-door neighbors. This week, we're exploring the archival evidence that places them both on Bishopsgate Street in the late 16th century. Our guest is Domenico Lovascio, whose article “Giles, John, and Will: The Fletchers and Shakespeare in Bishopsgate Street, London, 1596” offers a compelling look at the real-life proximity of these famous playwrights.

His friend the great scholar Desiderius Erasmus referred to Thomas More as “a Man for all seasons.” But which season? Or which Thomas More? Is he an advocate of conscience? A heroic defender of the Catholic faith? A saintly martyr? A fanatical zealot unwilling to listen to cool reason? An amateur inquisitor who lit the night with burning Lutherans and their books, and enjoyed little more than coming home after work for a torture session? Does every era get the Thomas More that it deserves?Thomas More was indeed a man of many twists and turns, a Tudor Odysseus. A Londoner; the grandson of a baker and son of a lawyer; a page in a noble household; an exceptional prose stylist, in Latin or English; a lawyer of exceptional diligence and skill; a guild member; a religious controversialist, able to match Martin Luther in scatology; a subtle humanist of European-wide fame; a poet; a politician; a bureaucrat; a royal advisor; a confessor of the faith; a prisoner; and a martyr. He was all those things, and more besides. With me to talk about the life and times of Thomas More is Joanne Paul, Associate Professor in Early Modern History at the University of Sussex. Her research focuses on the intellectual and cultural history of the Renaissance and Early Modern periods, written widely on Thomas More, William Shakespeare, Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes. Her most recent book is Thomas More: A Life, which is the subject of our conversation today.For Further Investigation The web page of Joanne PaulThomas More: A LifeThe last time we talked about the Tudors on Historically ThinkingAnd the book we talked about with its author, Lucy E.C.

Millions of tourists flock to London each year, eager to snap a selfie in front of Buckingham Palace or Big Ben. But beyond the crowds lies a darker – and distinctly stranger – side to the city: a gothic metropolis haunted by tales of demons, poltergeists and murders most foul. Jon Bauckham talks to author and historian Clive Bloom about some of the capital's spookiest stories, and why he believes that the eeriest encounters tend to unfold in the most mundane of places. (Ad) Clive Bloom is the author of London Uncanny: A Gothic Guide to the Capital in Weird History and Fiction (Bloomsbury, 2025).

From the terror of being strangled by violent thieves to tales that the sewers were infested with a squealing band of pigs, 19th-century Londoners spent much of their time living in fear. Here, Emma Butcher and Tim Blythe reveal what seven such scare-mongering stories can tell us about the psyche of the capital: https://www.historyextra.com/membership/victorian-london-dangers-what-was-life-like/.

Als Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts wegen eines Krieges mit Frankreich in England der Gin-Nachschub versiegt, erlaubt König Wilhelm III. seinen Untertanen, uneingeschränkt Alkohol zu brennen. Vor allem in London fließt bald hochprozentiger, billiger Branntwein in Strömen, betrinken sich die Menschen vom Kind bis zum Greis. Die Regierung versucht, den »Gin-Wahn« einzudämmen – doch finden die Londoner immer neue Wege, an Schnaps zu kommen. Und manche schrecken selbst vor Kindsmord nicht zurück.Host und Redaktion: Insa Bethke/GEO EPOCHE Gast: Kirsten BertrandSprecher: Peter KaempfeProduktion: Lia Wittfeld/Audio Alliance+++ Alle Rabattcodes und Infos zu unseren Werbepartnern finden Sie hier: https://linktr.ee/geoepoche +++ "Deutschland 1945": Unter www.geo.de/1945 finden Sie alle acht Folgen sowie ein vergünstigtes Abo für das Verbrechen der Vergangenheit-Special über das Kriegsende vor 80 Jahren.Sie möchten uns schreiben?

Immer wieder tauchen Berichte über den Einsatz von Uiguren als Zwangsarbeiter in China auf. Neue Recherchen des SPIEGEL zeigen nun das tatsächliche Ausmaß: Uiguren werden systematisch aus ihrer Heimatprovinz Xinjiang in andere Landesteile gebracht, wo sie unter teils prekären Bedingungen arbeiten müssen. Den Betroffenen drohen willkürliche Inhaftierungen, sie stehen unter ständiger Überwachung und sind oftmals in Wohnheimen untergebracht, die sie kaum verlassen dürfen. In der aktuellen Folge des SPIEGEL-Podcasts »Acht Milliarden« spricht Host Juan Moreno mit Christoph Giesen, SPIEGEL-Korrespondent in Peking. In einer langwierigen Recherche in Kooperation mit der »New York Times« und dem Londoner »The Bureau of Investigative Journalism« fanden Giesen und seine Kollegen 75 Werke in elf Provinzen, in denen Angehörige der muslimischen Minderheit arbeiten müssen. Zu den Profiteuren zählen mutmaßlich auch deutsche Unternehmen, da sie direkt oder indirekt von dieser Form der Ausbeutung profitieren könnten.

When did people begin seeking anonymous advice for their most profound personal dilemmas? What can the answers to their early questions tell us about the emotional lives of people in the past?  We're traveling back in time to 1690s England to explore the world's first personal advice column, The Athenian Mercury. This two-sided broadsheet publication invited readers to send in questions about anything–from science and religion to love and marriage– and its creators, a small group of Londoners who dubbed themselves the “Athenian Society,” answered these queries with a surprising blend of wit, morality, and insight. Joining us for this investigation is Mary Beth Norton, the Mary Donlon Alger Professor Emerita at Cornell University and award-winning historian who is a trailblazer in the field of early American women's history.

For years, Londoners lived in fear of a shadowy predator known as the Croydon Cat Killer. More than 400 cats were found dead—mutilated, decapitated, or dismembered in what appeared to be calculated and sinister ways. Pet owners were terrified. The media ran wild. Scotland Yard launched a full-scale manhunt. But after four years of panic and a $170,000 investigation, authorities came to a shocking conclusion.
