Podcasts about looking after

Welcome to the fifth series in the annual podcast programme from Academic Archers, bringing you papers from our 2024 conference.This episode brings together three papers exploring money, hospitality and public health in Ambridge.Looking After the Penny Hassets So the Pounds Look After Themselves - Katherine Jennings and Vikki Barry BrownMoney is everywhere in Ambridge, but rarely spoken of openly. This paper explores how financial norms, taboos and silences mirror English cultural attitudes.From inherited wealth to debt, employment to entrepreneurship, money shapes status and relationships. Themes of shame, aspiration and social standing reveal how the programme presents financial lives to its audience.About the speakersVikki Barry Brown leads qualitative research at behavioural science consultancy CogCo and is completing her PhD in Human Geography at Queen Mary University of London.Katherine Jennings is Director of the Talking Taboos Foundation and a social researcher with Common Collective, focusing on taboo issues and behaviour change.Grey Gables – Did It Need to Close During Renovation? - Katharine HoskynHotels often renovate or rebrand while remaining open, with mixed results. This paper takes a light-hearted, autoethnographic look at whether Grey Gables really needed to close.Drawing on a recent stay in a hotel under renovation, and on hospitality and tourism literature, it considers alternative options that could have kept Grey Gables trading. The presentation explores the impact of closure, how other hotels have managed change, and what this iconic Ambridge business might have done differently.About the speakerKatharine Hoskyn is based in New Zealand and manages a research project in the Faculty of Health and Environmental Science at Auckland University of Technology. With a background in social science and business, her research focuses on community issues. She has listened to The Archers since 1968 and is part of the Archers Cats online community.Make Every Contact/Episode Count - Jane LothianPublic health guidance urges professionals to “make every contact count”. In Ambridge, every episode offers an opportunity for health messaging. This paper analyses how immunisation and screening could feature more prominently in storylines.Using demographic and medical knowledge of Ambridge residents, the paper matches national screening and immunisation schedules to the characters. It considers whether services are accessed appropriately, explores ethical questions, and highlights the challenges faced by rural communities in accessing public health interventions.About the speakerDr Jane Lothian has over 20 years' experience in commissioning and managing population health services in Northeast England.

Welcome to the fifth series in the annual podcast programme from Academic Archers, bringing you papers from our 2024 conference.This episode brings together four papers from the session The Ambridge Family, exploring queerness, grief, education, and money in village life.The Only Gay in the Village? Queer(y)ing Family in Rural Borsetshire - Peter MatthewsThe Archers has long been rooted in the heteronormative nuclear family, with drama created when norms are broken. This paper explores how the show “queers” family life: from Adam and Ian's surrogacy with Lexi and Adam's relationships with Pawel and Charlie, to Helen choosing to have a child outside heterosexual partnership.It also considers how the housing crisis forces new family forms and how the intimacy of the programme allows negotiations of gender roles, such as Harrison reducing his hours while Fallon works more – and, of course, Pip and Stella.About the speakerProfessor Peter Matthews is Professor of Social Policy at the University of Stirling. His research focuses on equality, diversity and social justice.A Tractor and Family Overturned: The Death of John Archer and Its Ongoing Implications - Deborah Miller and Meg BurtonJohn Archer's death continues to reverberate through Bridge Farm. This paper explores how the loss of an adult child affects surviving parents and siblings, focusing on Helen and Tom.It considers how the tragedy changed their roles and shaped their self-esteem, drawing on grief theory, developmental psychology, and the risks of PTSD. Helen's behaviours and Tom's drive to ‘replace' his brother reveal how this event still haunts Ambridge.About the speakersDeborah Miller has a professional background in health and local government, and has presented multiple Academic Archers papers.Meg Burton brings both personal and professional perspectives to grief, trauma, and family life in Ambridge.Mia and Brad Are Doing Four A Levels: Will Widening Participation in Higher Education Finally Hit Ambridge? - Janette MyersUniversity has been rare, and fraught, for Ambridge residents. This paper asks whether Mia and Brad might break new ground, tracking educational life chances in the village and comparing them with national patterns.It also considers whether informal learning – such as Tracy's discovery of Lark Rise to Candleford – or Borchester College might shift opportunities, and what this says about class, aspiration and higher education.About the speakerDr Janette Myers is an Open University academic specialising in widening participation. She has listened to The Archers for over 45 years.Ant to come next week, though it was part of this session - Looking After the Penny Hassets So the Pounds Look After Themselves - Katherine Jennings and Vikki Barry BrownMoney is everywhere in Ambridge, but rarely spoken of openly. This paper explores how financial norms, taboos and silences mirror English cultural attitudes.From inherited wealth to debt, employment to entrepreneurship, money shapes status and relationships. Themes of shame, aspiration and social standing reveal how the programme presents financial lives to its audience.About the speakersVikki Barry Brown leads qualitative research at behavioural science consultancy CogCo and is completing her PhD in Human Geography at Queen Mary University of London.Katherine Jennings is Director of the Talking Taboos Foundation and a social researcher with Common Collective, focusing on taboo issues and behaviour change.If you enjoy our work and would like to support Aca

Spooky greeting booknerds.We know we're late but better late than never right? In this episode, we got to talk to the mysterious Kopi Soh, author of Looking After the Ashes. The book is a semi-biographical fiction of Kopi Soh's childhood stories from growing up in a Peranakan family filled with "wisdom". We talked about strange taboos (pantang larang), spirits, ghosts, and everything in between. We definitely learnt some new ones and relived some taboos we heard growing up.

Hello! In this episode I'm talking with the fabulous Charlotte Jessop of the blog Looking After Your Pennies on how you can prepare your finances for pregnancy, a topic you chose as a community to learn more about. Charlotte is the financial educator, coach, writer, vlogger and podcaster behind the Looking After your Pennies platform. To follow Charlotte, check out her blog here: https://lookingafteryourpennies.com/ Prior to training as a GP, I used to work in the field of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. It was common to see women plan every aspect of their pregnancies – right down to the vitamins they took and the delivery they wanted. Women generally attended every scan and every midwife appointment without fail. They prepped their bag for the time of going into labour and meticulously planned every detail. It wasn't always possible to see them through in exactly the way they had planned, but I did my best alongside an excellent team of doctors and midwives. To be honest, despite all the medical intervention and planning, I don't know if preparing their finances for having babies was always at the forefront of this process. And with an estimated 50% of pregnancies thought to be unplanned, this is even more worrying. Do you need to prepare financially for pregnancy?
