Dagens avsnitt tar sin början i Berlin, fortsätter till majsåkrarna i Iowa, och slutar i ett kaos i Milton Keynes. Det händer extremt mycket i sporten just nu, både på och utanför banan. Helgens Indycar-dubbel på Iowa Speedway blev ett nytt bottennapp för Marcus Ericsson som fortsätter att ha stora problem. Mer lovande såg det ut för Felix Rosenqvist efter ett kanonkval – men utförandet i depån spolierade chanserna i båda racen. Det är inte första gången Felix tappar värdefull mark i depån och vi diskuterar vad som eventuellt kan göras för att komma till rätta med situationen. Det stora samtalsämnet de senaste dagarna har annars varit Christian Horners dramatiska avsked från Red Bull. Efter 20 år, åtta förarmästerskap och sex konstruktörstitlar får Horner plötsligt sparken med omedelbar verkan – och den stora frågan är förstås varför. Vi tittar på de möjliga faktorerna bakom beslutet, vad det kan innebära framöver, och – förstås – var det här ställer Max Verstappen. Det spekuleras vilt just nu och rykten om ett mystiskt möte på Sardinien har inte gjort mycket för att skingra röken. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Last week was good from a geomagnetic disturbance point of view. Up until Wednesday the 25th, the Kp index had not been higher than 3.67 and had mostly been in the ones and twos. This helped HF propagation to a great extent. Sunspots have been present with the solar flux index sitting at 120 on Wednesday, the 25th. A look at the visible disk at solarham.com shows five sunspot groups facing Earth. None are ground-breaking, but they are at least helping to keep the solar flux index relatively high. Daytime F2 MUFs over a 3,000km path have been reaching 18MHz and even 21MHz at times, with 14MHz being more reliable. Sporadic-E continues to make 28MHz a useful band for short-skip, with much of Europe being workable mid-morning on the 25th, at least using FT8. Estonia, Germany, Poland, and Finland were all easily worked on FT8, but nothing was heard on the usual 10m CW and SSB frequencies. Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will be in the 140 to 150 range. Unsettled geomagnetic conditions are forecast for the 1st to the 3rd of July, when the Kp index could reach 4. And conditions may become unsettled again on the 6th and 7th, again with a predicted Kp index of 4. But in the meantime, make the most of the Sporadic-E on the 10m band, as it won't last forever! And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The more traditional summer weather, with patchy rain and showers, is likely to continue for a bit longer. The more persistent rain is likely in the north, closer to low pressure near Iceland, whereas the rain may be more intermittent in southern areas, closer to high pressure over France. This probably rules out any significant Tropo in northern Britain over the coming week but does allow for the occasional enhancement in the southern half of the country. Most areas will have some rain scatter opportunities for the GHz band operators, although perhaps fewer in the south than in the north. The solar conditions have quietened down a little in terms of aurora recently but as we said last week, don't forget to look north in the twilight sky for signs of the pale noctilucent cloud. This is a high-summer phenomenon. See if you can detect any wave patterns, like ripples on a sandy beach, in the cloud. The month of June tends to be quite good for meteor input, and the last of the set, the June Bootids, peaked on Friday the 27th. So, there should be some good chances for hearing the odd ping or two or even seeing one in the evening sky after dusk. The primary mode of interest is still Sporadic-E, which is in full swing and doubtless being topped up by the Bootids meteors, which produce the main ingredient of Sporadic-E propagation – long-lived ions as they ablate, or burn up, upon entering the atmosphere. In terms of the usual search for the placement of Sporadic-E events geographically, the main jet stream interest is likely to be across the northern part of Europe for the coming week. This suggests trying paths to Scandinavia and the Baltic states, whereas for triggers due to upper air ridge patterns, use the more southern routes. The Moon has passed perigee for this month, so path losses are rising. Moon declination is still high, not going negative until Tuesday, the 1st of July. 144MHz sky noise is low, increasing to moderate by next weekend. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

George Russell is officieel winnaar van de Formule 1 Grand Prix van Canada, al liet de definitieve uitslag extreem lang op zich wachten. Red Bull Racing tekende namelijk protest aan, volgens Christian Horner zelfs op twee vlakken. Het team uit Milton Keynes was van mening dat Russell Max Verstappen een straf wilde aansmeren en noemde zijn remactie achter de safety car 'buitensporig rijgedrag'. De FIA-stewards zijn daar niet in meegegaan en hebben het Red Bull-protest verworpen. Verstappen blijft tweede, wat hij op de baan het maximale resultaat achtte. Marije Dijkstra en Ronald Vording bespreken het uitgebreid in een nieuwe F1-update, net zoals de waarschuwingen voor onder meer Andrea Kimi Antonelli en Oscar Piastri en een compleet nutteloze 'tijdstraf' voor Lando Norris. De Brit heeft een straf van vijf seconden ontvangen, maar die wordt niet omgezet in een gridstraf voor Oostenrijk. Doordat hij meer dan negentig procent van de race-afstand heeft voltooid, zijn de vijf seconden sec toegevoegd aan zijn 'racetijd' - hetgeen dus geen enkel effect heeft. Afsluitend natuurlijk veel aandacht voor de clash bij McLaren, waarvoor Norris zijn excuses heeft aangeboden en ook publiekelijk door het stof is gegaan.
More than just a football match, the clashes between AFC Wimbledon and MK Dons represent a deep-seated conflict born from the controversial relocation of the original Wimbledon FC. This episode delves into the roots of this unique and passionate rivalry, exploring the seismic 2003 move to Milton Keynes that sparked outrage and led to the creation of a fan-owned phoenix club, AFC Wimbledon. We examine the ensuing years of division, the symbolic renunciation of history by MK Dons, and the enduring emotional weight every fixture carries for both sets of fans. Tune in to understand why this is one of English football's most compelling and complex narratives, a true battle for the soul of a club.

The RSGB has just launched a new web section that focuses on special event stations. For RSGB members and Affiliated Clubs, there is an online guide called the SES Cookbook, which offers a wide range of practical guidance to help you deliver the best experience for your visitors and the organisers. The guide covers a wide range of topics, including how to apply for a special event station callsign, the stages of the planning process, publicising your event to attract visitors and how to make a good number of contacts. For non-RSGB members, there is a simple guidance document that outlines the main things to consider when planning this type of event. The new section also draws together existing information about permanent special event stations as well as QSL guidance. If you're planning an event for this year, or even for next year, now is the time to make the most of this comprehensive guide. Go to rsgb.org/ses to find out more. The RSGB Operating Advisory Service, or OAS, provides advice to members on dealing with situations that are not within the spirit of amateur radio. From time to time, this activity goes beyond what is classed as acceptable behaviour and requires action to be taken. In these circumstances, the OAS recommends reporting the matter directly to Ofcom and to the police in the case of issues which could be classed as harassment, stalking or hate crimes. Experience has shown that this carries more weight coming directly from the people hearing or suffering the problem rather than a third party, such as the RSGB. If you hear anything that is not acceptable behaviour, contact the RSGB OAS first, and the team will suggest the correct course of action. Once Ofcom and the police have issued reference numbers, these should be passed to the Operating Advisory Service. You can contact OAS via oas@rsgb.org.uk The RSGB has submitted responses to a pair of Ofcom consultations. The first considered a series of licence exemption updates, including arrangements for some visiting radio amateurs to the UK. The second concerned filing procedures for the growing number and variety of satellites. Both replies were developed by the RSGB Spectrum Forum, drawing on its members' wide breadth of expertise. The Spectrum Forum expects that there will be further updates to both topics. Find the full replies by going to rsgb.org/spectrumforum and selecting the ‘Papers and Consultations' option from the right-hand menu. The RSGB recently announced two new volunteering opportunities. The RSGB CW Champion will help the Society in taking Morse code to new audiences. Tasks will vary from developing the CW content on the RSGB's website through to developing and supporting a team of enthusiastic individuals who can support CW-related activities. The second role requires an individual with experience in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The RSGB STEM Champion will help the Society to reach new audiences, build relationships with related organisations and encourage more young people into STEM careers. Go to rsgb.org/volunteers to read the full role descriptions and learn how to apply.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 12th of June 2025 Propagation was a mixed bag last week, with occasional Kp index rises but a solid solar flux index, which hit 141 on Thursday, the 12th. We also had some sporadic-E short-skip conditions on the HF bands, which brought some surprises. We are now in June, so the summer HF doldrums are well underway. But that doesn't mean that the fun has gone from the HF bands. Daytime maximum usable frequencies over a 3,000km path have been around 18 to 20 MHz, so the main active band has been 20m. Paul, GM4ULS, reports that there was a spectacular inter-G event on the morning of Tuesday, the 10th of June. Whilst activating special event station GB70RS from Perth, he worked a mini pile-up of English stations from anywhere between Southampton and Manchester. This was between 0949 and 1022 UTC on 14.210 MHz. He said it sounded like the 40m band at times! We think this was probably a Sporadic-E event, which often creates strong but short-lived paths across the UK on the HF bands in the summer. We normally think of Sporadic-E as affecting the 10m band, but the lower bands are also often implicated. Have you worked anything unusual via Sporadic-E? If you have, please send your reports to radcom@rsgb.org.uk Otherwise, DX on the HF bands has been a little sparse, with paths opening to South Africa and South America on the 20 and 17m bands at times. Perhaps this is a good time to work some Summits on the Air or World Wide Flora and Fauna stations in Europe. These are usually QRP stations that appreciate your contacts. Next week, NOAA predicts the solar flux index will be in the 120 to 130 range. Unfortunately, geomagnetic conditions are predicted to be unsettled, thanks mainly to the return of a massive coronal hole on the Sun. Disruption was due to start around the 14th, but due to the hole's size, this could continue for at least three days with a maximum Kp index of 6. Expect the HF bands to be disrupted with lower maximum usable frequencies as the plasma in the solar wind hits the Earth. It may be a good time for visible aurora hunting, though. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The high summer conditions have brought an increasing chance of Sporadic-E, particularly on digital modes, with DXmaps.com plots showing plenty of paths on most days. Many of these are possibly associated with turbulence generated by jet streams in the weather part of the atmosphere. These send atmospheric gravity waves upwards to affect the E region. It's this association with specific weather features that makes Sporadic-E sporadic in a geographical sense. If so, in the coming week, the jet streams are mainly over the northern fringe of Europe. These suggest a better chance of paths to Scandinavia with fewer options to the south to support paths to the Mediterranean and the Balkans. In any event, June is high season for Sporadic-E, so remember to check the 6m band either mid-morning or late afternoon. The early thundery weather at the end of last week was useful for rain scatter on the GHz bands, and it is just possible it will return for the end of the coming week. In between times, it will be a high-pressure story that will dominate and may well produce some useful Tropo conditions. However, note that in the hot days of summer, inversion conditions and Tropo will be better at night and tend to weaken by the middle of the morning. Meteor scatter will have been boosted by two showers on the 7th and 8th of June, and, since they were broad peaks, there should be some meteor input left to see us through the coming week. For EME, sky noise is dropping. Low declination is now starting to decrease. So, Moon windows and peak elevation are improving. EME conditions are classed as poor to moderate today, the 15th of June, but are then good on the 21st and 22nd of June. And that's all from the propagation team this week.
Chelsea Birkby: Magic, Milton Keynes & the Comedy of Not KnowingIn this wonderfully winding episode, Steve Otis Gunn is joined by comedian Chelsea Birkby for a conversation brimming with insight, whimsy, and philosophical detours. Renowned for her thoughtful humour, Chelsea offers a fresh perspective on everything from the rooftops of Milton Keynes to the existential undertones of reality TV. Together, they navigate the intriguing intersections of comedy, illusion, and the comfort of not always knowing. From the overlooked genius of The Simple Life to the moment a mentalist made her question the nature of free will, Chelsea reflects on the inspirations behind her latest show. Topics touched on include:Skater energy, angular architecture, and the symbolism of Milton KeynesMagic, mind games, and the card trick that broke her brainThe urgency of watching The Traitors and The Kardashians close to transmissionCreating comedy before the spark fadesBrainrot, generational slang, and why Googling ruins everythingWhether you're deep into stand-up, reality TV, or the kind of person who still doesn't understand how vinyl records work—and prefers it that way—this one's for you.
My guest this week is the journalist and broadcaster Reeta Chakrabarti. After two decades producing and reporting for the BBC, Reeta became a news presenter at the age of 49.

She joined the BBC in 1992 where she started on Radio One Newsbeat and presented news bulletins for the legendary Radio 2 DJ Steve Wright in the Afternoon. (Just talk amongst yourself kids!) Heading into 50 she took an a whole new role and at 60 she's done it again, only this time she's written a book, a novel, Finding Belle, that takes us from Mombassa to Milton Keynes to Calcutta. Reeta (and the builders next door!) joined me to talk about family, belonging, growing up the only brown girl in the class and being a lifelong good girl. We also discussed the importance of failure, learning to become a yes person, in the best possible way, getting bolder as she gets older and why she has no plans to be in the newsroom at 70. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including Finding Belle by Reeta Chakrabarti as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

Since 2020, Jazz Sabbath has released 3 albums and toured worldwide; however, many don't realize that their music was stolen from them by the members of Black Sabbath. According to legend, long-suffering "Milton Keynes" had the music stolen from him and it has only recently seen the light of day. The real-world story goes that Adam Wakeman has re-imagined the music of Black Sabbath under the banner of Jazz Sabbath, recently releasing his third album in the fall of 2024, titled The 1968 Tapes. He not only shares stories on shaping the arrangements on The 1968 Tapes, but also a funny story from a tour with Ozzy, his recent experience on a cruise ship, and even where to get the best fish and chips! Huge thanks go out to Adam for his second appearance on the podcast. You can follow Adam with his various musical ventures online and purchase his music through Bandcamp.

My Music Podcast with Graham Coath – Episode Title: "Power It Up – With Hayley Goodings"In this fun, wide-ranging, and often hilarious episode, Graham Coath sits down with singer-songwriter Hayley Goodings, who brings her wit, warmth, and lyrical flair to My Music Podcast. From growing up near Milton Keynes to writing nearly 400 songs inspired by life's ups and downs, Hayley opens up about her journey into songwriting, her love of poetic lyrics, and why she refuses to be boxed into a single genre.They dive into the realities of indie music promotion, dealing with unsupportive industry gatekeepers, and the power of genuine connection online. Hayley shares how she turns everyday moments into emotional tracks – sometimes morphing heartbreak into drum and bass anthems – and how karaoke, wine, and a burning passion for music shape her creative days.Also in the mix: reinventing U2 and Cranberries classics, making playlists that build community, and the birth of a new jungle hit for Christmas (spoiler: it's called Power It Up and it's as cheeky as it is catchy).Authentic, unfiltered, and packed with great energy, this episode is for music lovers, dream chasers, and anyone who's ever got lost in a song.

"It wasn't until I returned that I began to understand the city a little bit more and see it in a slightly different way." - Simon Wright This episode features Simon Wright and Richard Wiggins, the founders of All Flows, a creative festival in Milton Keynes. They discuss their journey from hosting Milton Keynes Geek Night to launching All Flows festival, their creative agency Ville, and their dedication to championing Milton Keynes' unique design heritage. Despite being a relatively young city, Milton Keynes has a rich history of using arts to build community, with radical approaches to urban design that attracted influential architects and designers. Simon and Richard share their passion for creating intimate, inspirational events that connect international creatives with local talent, highlighting their commitment to quality programming and community building over commercial success.TakeawaysMilton Keynes, despite being only 56 years old, has a rich design heritage that included contributions from figures like Buckminster Fuller.All Flows began as a passion project between two friends who wanted to create the kind of creative event they'd want to attend.The founders intentionally keep All Flows intimate to foster meaningful connections between speakers and attendees.Both Simon and Richard are driven more by passion than commercial interests, prioritizing quality and inspiration over profit.Their curation process involves researching speakers extensively and creating a balanced program that mixes established names with emerging talents.Student involvement through scholarships and volunteering is a key part of their mission to inspire the next generation of local creatives.The venue challenges in Milton Keynes have shaped the festival's character rather than deterring its growth.The festival has gained international recognition, with attendees traveling from as far as Michigan and New Zealand.All Flows is now included in Milton Keynes' five-year cultural and tech strategy, signifying its importance to the city.The founders see All Flows as continuing Milton Keynes' legacy of using arts and creativity to build community and create a sense of place.

Onder de lichten van White Hart Lane, waar ooit Sheringham en Gascoigne zongen met de bal, dook plots een tiener op met flair, lef en een rechtervoet die met één tik wedstrijden kon kantelen. Dele Alli kwam niet uit de grote academies, niet uit een gouden generatie, maar uit Milton Keynes – met een rugzak vol verleden en een hoofd vol dromen. Wat hij bracht? Durf. En dat maakte hem onweerstaanbaar.In zijn beginjaren danste hij tussen de linies alsof hij daar geboren was. Niet helemaal een tien, niet helemaal een spits, maar iets daartussenin: chaos met controle. Hij vond Harry Kane met de ogen dicht, tikte ballen langs verdedigers alsof hij ze al jaren kende. Die goal tegen Crystal Palace – de aanname, de wip, de volley – werd geen doelpunt, maar een symbool. De kroonprins van Spurs was opgestaan.Maar sprookjes hebben hun schaduw. Een hamstring, een incident in een Londens hotel, een naam die vaker op de voorpagina stond dan op het scorebord. Divey Alli, noemden ze hem. De magie verdween, het mysterie bleef. Mourinho zag het gebeuren, probeerde te grijpen wat glipte: “Are you Dele, or Dele's brother?” De vraag bleef hangen, net als de belofte van wat had kunnen zijn.Achter het verval zat een verhaal. Een kind zonder thuis, een jongen zonder vaste grond. Tussen chaos en liefde, Nigeria en Engeland, werd Dele gevormd – gebroken én gebouwd. De Hickfords gaven hem stabiliteit, maar geen verleden valt volledig te wissen. De nachten bleven lang, de demonen hardnekkig. In stilte vocht hij zijn zwaarste strijd, ver weg van de camera's.Hij is nog geen dertig, en de bal rolt nog. Nu in Como, met het verleden als bagage en de toekomst als vraagteken. Of hij terugkeert op het hoogste niveau weet niemand. Maar wie Dele ooit zag schitteren, wie hem een bal zag temmen alsof zwaartekracht niet bestond, weet: echt talent dooft niet. Het sluimert, wachtend op het moment dat het weer mag ademen.In de podcast verwijzen Bart en Mart naar: De goal tegen Crystal Palace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtBw_EDp6jw&ab_channel=TottenhamHotspurZijn top 10 goals bij Spurs: https://youtu.be/dAew9kqKMsQ?si=D4bwOWbQ4t_3M9UGZijn gesprek met José Mourinho: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UxEG3qL9xw&ab_channel=OnlyFootballZijn openhartige interview met Gary Neville: https://youtu.be/LyDL9EUIdy0?si=K4Nc5gNJyjJ1YiccZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textIn this interview with @peterwindsor we react to the Chinese Grand Prix and discuss why this was one of Max Verstappen's best drives and why the Red Bull car did not deserve to finish in fourth. Will Max Verstappen leave the Red Bull team as soon as next year on the back of emergency crisis talks to be held at Milton Keynes on Thursday? Why @peterwindsor felt it was heart breaking to see Lewis Hamilton let Charles Leclerc past and what did Ferrari do during the Chinese Grand Prix that Peter Windsor thought was unforgiveable? Who should Red Bull pick to replace Liam Lawson and how long should they give Lawson to prove himself? Are Red Bull to blamed for their second driver situation and why do they keep making bad decisions? @peterwindsor gives his opinion on McLaren and whether they will really let Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris race, and does Oscar really have what it takes to challenge Lando Norris over the course of a season?- become a member -https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxyxUe_jRskL8xH7n580Ecw/join- where to find me -Twitter: https://twitter.com/CxmeronCcTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cxmeroncc_Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CameronF1TVBusiness Email : cxmeronf1@gmail.com#f1 #formula1 #f1news #f12024 #hamilton #verstappen #charlesleclerc #landonorris #redbullracing #redbull #ferrari

On this week's episode of Three Ravens, we are chatting all about the history and folklore of Buckinghamshire, a county once believed - completely wrongly - to have very few folktales... We start off chatting about St Patrick's Day, discussing his weird life amongst pirates and of generally annoying people, all before he became Patron Saint of Ireland, after which we bounce on over to Buckinghamshire!After discussing how this week's Local Legends guest Dr Terrie Howie changed the game in terms of how people view the legends of the area, we start to delve into some strange facets of the county's history, including how Alan Turing and the codebreakers of Bletchley Park were haunted by a caffeine-hungry spectre, the strange and sinister doings of The Hellfire Club, and Buckinghamshire's very own dragon story.Then Martin not just double or triple carbs it, but presents the possibility of a four carbohydrate County Dish, while also getting quite alliterative...Next, we chew over some folklore, including one of the first UFO reports in British history, which occurred in Buckinghamshire, relay the details of some of the county's rather annoying, hedge-jumping fae beings, tell the tale of a spooky Green Man/ghost/Bishop hybrid, and throw a bone to the Black Beast of Aylesbury - all enhanced by some excerpts from Saturday's full Local Legends interview with Terrie.Then it's on to the main event: Martin's story "Cassian, The Vampire of Milton Keynes," in which the good folk of Buckinghamshire work together to show the divine power of a well written letter...We really hope you enjoy the episode, and will be back on Thursday with a new Forgotten Melodies bonus episode about Sea Shanties, all before the full interview with Terrie comes out on Saturday!The 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/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

With 11 Grands Prix under his belt, Liam Lawson is technically no longer a rookie – but he is about to embark on his first full Formula 1 season in 2025 and race at many tracks he's never driven before. So how does the New Zealander feel about this next step with Red Bull Racing? Speaking to Tom Clarkson at the team's UK headquarters in Milton Keynes, Liam answers all the big questions ahead of a potentially career-defining year. What did Liam do to persuade Team Principal Christian Horner and Red Bull Motorsport Advisor Helmut Marko that he was the right man to replace Sergio Perez? How is he approaching the challenge of having four-time World Champion Max Verstappen as his new teammate? And, with five other drivers kickstarting their F1 careers this season, why does he think more teams are choosing youth over experience?
