Have you ever peered into the blackness of a pond at night and wondered what lurks beneath? Come with us and find out in this special, spooky, episode! From creatures with unimaginably strange bodies that could be straight out of a sci-fi movie, to the bizarre upside-down swimming water boatmen - life in a pond can be brutal. It really is the world of eat, or be eaten. Like lots of other habitats, as dark falls, ponds turn other-worldy, yet often we don't get to experience them. In this episode we'll show you that there's lots for us to see, and hear, that we can only experience at nighttime.  Host Megan McCubbin peers into her own pond on a stormy wet night to see what she can see, from the pond creatures around on the surface to the bats overhead. Hear the spooky and strange sounds underwater with ecologist and underwater sounds expert Jack Greenhalgh.

In 2013, British-Australian writer Lucy Christoper published her debut novel 'Stolen'. An award-winning YA novel, 'Stolen' is the story of 16 year-old Gemma Toombs who is kidnapped from Bangkok Airport and held captive in the Australian outback by her capture Tyler McFarlane. This year, the long-awaited companion to this incredible story was published by Text Publishing. 'Release' explores Gemma's journey as an adult survivor and her quest to discover the truth about her complicated relationship with Ty.

In today’s episode we're joined by Juliet Grayson, the director of StopSO (Specialist Treatment Organisation for Perpetrators and Survivors of Sexual Offences) to discuss the causes and treatment of pedophilia. We explore the origins of sexual attraction to minors in adults, what causes a pedophile to move from a sexual attraction to minors to actually committing an offence, how and why we should change public perception towards non-offending pedophiles. We discuss the importance of providing people who are attracted to children with access to treatment, what therapy for pedophilia consists of and how it can help, and why preventing the first offence is not only more ethical, but more cost effective than punishment. *** BOOKS MENTIONED *** "Landscapes of the Heart" by Juliet Grayson: https://amzn.to/2M3CsqE "Infant Losses, Adult Searches" by Glyn Hudson Allez: https://amzn.to/2LB21Dq "The Killing Woods" by Lucy Christopher: https://amzn.to/2LO32rc "Intimacy" by Hanif Kureishi: https://amzn.to/2mThVKO "Understand and Addressing Adult Sexual Attraction to Children" by Sarah Goode: https://amzn.to/2M3557L *** SUPPORT US ON PATREON *** http://patreon.com/myownworstenemy *** SOCIAL MEDIA *** Facebook: http://facebook.com/myownworstenemyorg Twitter: http://twitter.com/dannydwhittaker *** CREDITS *** Theme Music: Falling Down by Ryan Little http://youtube.com/user/TheR4C2010 Podcast Image: theshutterbug https://flic.kr/p/zuJRGE DISCLAIMER: My Own Worst Enemy is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.co.uk and affiliated sites.
