Agentic storefronts attract divided opinions. From early adopters convinced they're an innovative way to service online customers who need a deeper level of assistance, akin to an in-store sales assistant, to cynics who see this as a distraction from fixing your main website.That's why we invited Jojo Regan, co-founder at Manors Golf, to join us and explain how & why they've launched an agentic storefront to complement the main website. As a self-confessed early adopter of technology, Jojo offers an interesting perspective on the role agentic storefronts can play within an ecommerce strategy.In Jojo's opinion, some brands are missing a huge opportunity by sticking to static, traditional ecommerce experiences. We explore how leveraging AI-driven, conversation-based storefronts can transform customer engagement and boost sales.His vision is for a golf apparel brand that lets customers chat, discover and personalise their shopping journey in real-time, without the limitations of static pages. Jojo explains how Manners Golf is pioneering this shift by integrating an agentic storefront powered by large language models (LLMs). He discusses the strategic thinking behind enhancing traditional online stores with dynamic, interactive experiences that mimic walking into a physical shop, where personalised recommendations and discovery happen naturally.Tune in for the following:The way early adoption of innovative tech like agentic storefronts keeps Manors ahead of the curve in ecommerce.The impact of conversational experiences on key metric, such as a 54% reduction in return rate.The future of AI-enabled shopping: personalisedand highly engaging environments that anticipate consumer expectations.Why early investment in these technologies positions brands as industry leaders in the coming AI-driven retail landscape.How Manors Golf employs a team with creative and technical expertise to produce viral content that drives a top-of-funnel strategy without heavy paid marketing.It's still very early days for agentic storefronts, so real-world case studies will help you build your understanding of what is possible, and what is relevant.

How Haunted? Podcast | Horrible Histories, Real Life Ghost Stories, and Paranormal Investigations from Some of the Most Haunt

In episode 138 we head to a place which has been called the “Ghost Island”. This isn't a reputation rooted not in modern gimmickry but in centuries of verified sightings, folklore, tragedy, and lingering energies. It's been claimed that this small island off England's south coast has more paranormal reports per square mile than anywhere else in the UK. This is the first of a very special series of episodes in which we will journey through the island's most haunted manors, ruined forts, former hospitals, pubs, botanical gardens, and ancient landscapes — tracing their histories in rich detail, grounding everything in verifiable accounts, and exploring the ghost stories that have earned the island it's spectral crown.

How do you take a sport with one of the strongest aesthetic traditions in the world and completely rewrite what it looks like?We get into the cultural moment golf is having, why they backed a creator over a tour pro, the 90s nostalgia driving the aesthetic, and what it means to sell adventure rather than apparel. The pivot that defined the business, a fundraise with Andy Murray involved, and whether Manors ever steps outside of golf.And then AI: where Jojo is actually placing bets, why the agentic website is already live and what the dot com of the future looks like for a brand built on culture and storytelling.Enjoy the show.This episode is sponsored by Swap - if you want to see what the future of storefronts looks like, book a demo at swap-commerce.com/offcuts

Hey — let's talk Gothic. If you loved the Wuthering Heights episode but aren't sure what “Gothic” means, here's a friendly, no‑pressure rundown: it's a literary vibe that exploded in the late 1700s and early 1800s (part of Romanticism) and stuck around because people couldn't get enough of spooky mystery, big feelings, and weird houses. At its core Gothic mixes suspense and the supernatural with secrets from the past: ghosts (or things that feel like ghosts), hidden diaries or cursed heirlooms, murmured scandals, and the sense that history is still very much alive — and maybe angry. Stories often leave the door open between a rational explanation and the uncanny, so you're always wondering what's real. The setting matters: remote, isolated places—windy moors, stormy cliffs, spooky woods, and usually a grand but slightly crumbling manor. That atmosphere of beauty plus decay is basically Gothic's aesthetic fingerprint. Protagonists are frequently women, which made these books especially thrilling for female readers back when options for adventurous stories were limited. Other common threads: intense emotion over reason, troubled or doomed romances, the ever‑present shadow of death, and objects that carry memory or menace. Short stories work great as an intro (hello, Poe), and novellas are perfect if you want a quick, delicious chill. Gothic isn't one thing — it splinters into cool subgenres. Southern Gothic, for example, folds in religious hypocrisy, the legacy of violence, and heavy landscape feeling. Contemporary takes like Mexican Gothic (Silvia Moreno‑Garcia) remix classic Gothic tropes—isolated mansions, family secrets—with new cultures, histories, and anxieties. Other great touchstones: Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, Rebecca, The Turn of the Screw (Bly Manor), Shirley Jackson's Hill House, Daphne du Maurier, Edgar Allan Poe, and even films like Crimson Peak that lean into the look and mood. Gothic also shows up in real cultural practices and local histories: think of rituals that try to heal a place's memory or reckon with past violence. Those real world echoes are part of what keeps the genre alive and relevant — it's not just spooky houses, it's how communities remember and reckon with what happened there. If you want to dive in, try a Poe short story, a classic like Jane Eyre, or a modern pick like Mexican Gothic or a T. Kingfisher novella. And hey — if you've got favorites, tell us. I want to know what weird, moody books give you chills.

In this episode of Scratch, Viren sits down with Alex Ames, Marketing Director at Manors Golf, the challenger brand bringing new energy, creativity, and cultural relevance to a sport long seen as elitist and inaccessible. Manors believes golf is a game to be explored, not mastered, and they are reshaping the category one cinematic campaign at a time.Alex unpacks how Manors went from a small rebrand to a movement inspiring a new generation of golfers. He dives into the brand's early struggles (“the Dark Ages”), how events helped them rediscover momentum, and how the team realised that attention—not product, was their true currency. He reveals the internal creative engine behind Manors' iconic films, from Monday forensic reviews to Thursday idea punch-ups, and how viral thinking shapes every concept.The episode covers everything from the Reebok partnership (and why they avoid “brand soup”), to location-led campaigns, to how everyday golfers and celebrities ended up sharing the tee sheet at Manors events. For marketers, the message is clear: if you want to change a category, change the story people tell about it.Watch the video version of this podcast on Youtube ▶️: YT Link

It is the ability to see and acknowledge the good that surrounds you no matter what circumstances you are walking through, and it is the driver of joy. Carla does an excellent job of explaining to us the basics of gratitude and even helps us to understand what gratitude is not. We talk through many important concepts around the mental and physical benefits, but here is one of the most important things I want you to understand, it starts wherever you are. Not sure what I mean? Take a listen and let Carla validate whatever you are feeling and help you take another step on your healing journey.  Plus, she shares some super fun exercises to help get you started with the practice of gratitude. Please listen, like, and share this episode and help us continue to spread awareness that it's ok to not be ok, but let's not stay there. Book Mentioned: Try Softer By Aundi KolberWays  to Find Carla: Website: Therapy for Individuals, Couples, & Families | St Charles, MO (carlapowderly.com)FB: (10) FacebookWays to Find Embrace.

Years in the corporate and non-profit sectors give me a unique ability to relate to clients in any profession. Helping people discover the importance of their stories, and helping them navigate their unique process of healing and renewal, are some of my greatest delights.I believe accessing our creativity, wandering about in nature and allowing quiet exploration in times of solitude and silence are integral components of the healing process. I offer walk-and-talk therapy as an alternative to traditional in-office therapy, when appropriate, and as weather permits.I am a contracted preferred counselor for pastors and their families through Converge Mid America, and spent three years leading women's cohort groups at Covenant Seminary in St. Louis. I am available to lead retreats, workshops and seminars, and enjoy partnering with area churches, businesses and community organizations.Grief, sorrow and desperation are familiar companions, and I know shame and fear. Likewise, the joy of childlike belly laughing, goofy dancing around the kitchen, and celebrating life's myriad minuscule triumphs buoy my soul. Let's be human together.

Wars have been waged, harsh words spoken, and even the occasional finger has been wagged in a very impolite way. Manors people, manors. We're not animals. But, recently, one farmer overturned the applecart of history by single-handedly changing the internationally-recognized border between two nations. And they did it without firing a single shot, bribing a single official, or even having a clue that they were doing it. While tending their fields, a Belgian farmer moved a 330-pound stone out of the path of their tractor. Presumably using the tractor to accomplish this task. I mean, unless there's a superhero aspect to this story that I missed. Anyway, the farmer moved the stone 7 and a half feet and when on about the business of tending their crops. What crops? I don't know. Let's say pretzels. And not the tiny ones. The big, honkin' size-of-your-head pretzels. The key is salting them at just the right time, because if it rains, all your work gets washed away. but let's dog ear that for now. What the farmer didn't know was that a roaming band of historians were out and about in the area. Side note: if you ever run into a wild pack of historians, don't run, they smell fear. Simply ask them to explain the transition between the middle ages and the renaissance. While they're busy arguing the finer points of traditional beliefs that it stems from the rise of humanism versus the modern opinion that the term is a meaningless delineation, you can slip away. On this particular day, the historians were studying stones that are used to mark the 620 kilometer border between Belgium and France. These massive markers were put in place under the 1820 Treaty of Kortrijk, after Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo in 1815. All was going well. Until they discovered, to their horror, that one of the stones had been moved 7 and a half feet into what was, or had been up until that moment, Bousignies-sur-roc, France. That's right. In the farmer's desire to speed the process of tilling their pretzel fields, the Belgian had unwittingly moved a section of the Franco-Belgian border by 2.3 meters. When Mayor David Lavaux, of Erquelinnes, Belgium was notified about the incident, he said "Belgium and our municipality are enlarged! The French don't agree, obviously." We're not sure how many troops were dispatched to the area, or how many calls he received from the United Nations, NATO and Rand McNally, but Lavaux added, "Gonna have to put things back in place." Lavaux said the farmer will not face any legal consequences if they returns the stone to its original position. However, the farmer may be considering another option. If enough of the border stones rest on their property, it might be possible to place the rocks in a circle, forming the new, independent nation of "Pretzel-vania!" SOUND: CLAP OF THUNDER CLINTON (LAUGHING.) Ah, ha, ha. But for now, that's it, we're done, done, done, done, done. Bye bye.

For more than a century following the Norman Conquest, English writing fell out of favor. During that hiatus, French words continued to flow into English. A lot of those words were associated with the manors that dotted the English countryside where most of the peasants lived and worked. In this episode, we look at some of those French and Latin words associated with manors and peasants.  We also examine how the manorial courts were used as tool to exploit the peasants and tie them to the land.
