This week, the Movers & Shakers are joined in the pub by our friends from Cure Parkinson's and Parkinson's UK. They are two of the charities working so hard to find ways of dealing with Parkinson's and improving the lives of those with the condition. But they also face huge challenges. Is enough being invested in research? Are the charities forced to compete with one another for limited resources? And what is the rule of the Michael J. Fox Foundation, the huge American body that operates at a much larger scale than its UK counterparts? We're talking about all this – and more! – on today's episode.It's not too late to write to your MP ahead of next Monday's debate – you can do so here.Sponsored by Albion Chambers.Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn and Jeremy Paxman.Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot.Sound mixing by Ewan Cameron.Music by Alex Stobbs.

With the Trump administration issuing alarming threats about eradicating "narco-terrorism" in our Hemisphere after accusing Canada of having drug cartels and sending fentanyl to the USA, and ramping up military action in Venezuela, not to mention the shocking revelations from the Epstein emails, we are witnessing a tumultuous week in politics that demands our attention.This special Double Header episode with Douglas Connors breaks down the tantalizing drama surrounding Pierre Poilievre's faltering leadership and MP defections. As poll numbers reveal a shifting political landscape in Canada, we must ask: Is the Epstein Files bombshell the beginning of the end for the MAGA movement and its waning appeal in Alberta, led by MAGA-friendly Danielle Smith and Poilievre's maple MAGA Conservative Party?Additionally, we engage with Guy Felicella, a passionate global advocate for Housing First and harm reduction, a resident of BC. He lays bare the reality that Poilievre's rhetoric and policies fall short of being fiscally responsible, particularly when contrasted with the proven Housing First model. Guy shares his deeply personal story and raises a pressing question: Will Prime Minister Mark Carney's housing strategy be sufficient to confront the crisis that is forcing hundreds of thousands of Canadians to suffer on our streets this winter?This episode is not just insightful; it is essential listening for anyone who cares about the future of our communities and the direction of our country.

Pastors' Point of View Ep. 382 with Dr. Andy Woods. “Prophecy Update”The stage is being set for global persecution exactly as the Bible predicted. In Finland, a parliamentarian and bishop face years of criminal prosecution simply for quoting Scripture about marriage. In Canada, an MP wants Bible verses criminalized as "hate speech." In France, leaders are working to control and license all public information.This isn't just about politics—it's about prophecy unfolding before our eyes. Daniel 7:23 warned of a final world government that would "devour the whole earth" and "tread it down and crush it." Revelation 17 describes a global system drunk with the blood of the saints.But here's the hope: Before God's wrath falls, Jesus promises to rescue His church through the rapture. Titus 2:13 calls it our "blessed hope"—the appearing of our great God and Savior.The gospel itself is offensive to the natural man because it offers salvation by grace alone, not works. And if speaking biblical truth becomes criminal, we're watching the infrastructure of the tribulation period being built in real time.The process IS the punishment. Even when believers win these cases, they've been drained emotionally, financially, and spiritually—exactly what the persecutors intend.Are you ready? The signs are undeniable. The alignment is remarkable. The time is short.#EndTimes #BibleProphecy #FreeSpeech #ReligiousFreedom #Rapture #BlessedHope #GlobalPersecution #LastDays #ProphecyUpdate

John Maytham speaks to Ian Cameron, DA Deputy Spokesperson on Police, who says the crisis can no longer be addressed through bureaucratic national strategies alone. Cameron argues that the Western Cape’s Metro Police are among the few functional and trusted law enforcement units left — yet they remain limited by national laws that prevent them from investigating gang-related crimes or conducting ballistic and intelligence operations. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions.

The El Wak stampede is a wake-up call, not a reason to question the GAF's competence or professionalism - Kofi Amankwa-Manu, MP, Atwima Kwanwoma Constituency.

On 12 November 1925, the BBC broadcast one of its most bizarre programmes yet: 'MASS TELEPATHY: An Experiment in Thought Reading in which every Listener will be invited to assist' On 12 November 2025, we present a dramatic re-enactment, based on newspaper articles of the day, and brought to life with a cast of marvel and a guest radio drama producer. Appropriately, the one believer on the celebrity panel was the first BBC dramatist - Phyllis Twigg. We first landed on this story on episode 72 of this podcast, exploring her tale, her innovations and her interest in spiritualism. Alas no one else on the panel took it seriously. Like The Celebrity Traitors of 1925, a bunch of celebs (a Shakespearean actress, a panto star, the BBC's drama critic, the BBC's Director of Education, an MP, and so on) gathered in a fancy hotel with a gothic atmosphere and played a spooky game around a table, with a glass or two of fizzy rosé. Or is it more Derren Brown: Mind Control? Either way, the celebrity jury mostly played it for laughs - and enjoyed the hospitality of the Savoy Hotel a little too much. The listeners weren't happy - especially those taking it seriously at home, beaming their thoughts into the ether. With no recording, we bring it to life for the first time in a century. In exactly a century. If you enjoy this dramatisation, do let us know (paul at paulkerensa dot com) and/or consider joining us on Patreon.com/paulkerensa - if you like it, and if we can afford to, we'll do more like this, in and amongst our regular episodes - which right now is meant to be telling the tale of November 1923.

A mood of protest sweeps New Zealand in 1991, sometimes spilling over into violence, as the reform machine powers on. Benefits are slashed, the Employment Contracts Act fundamentally reshapes the labour market, the health system is restructured, and Jim Bolger U-turns on a “no ifs, no buts, no maybes” promise around superannuation. Here Ruth Richardson tells the story of the Mother of All Budgets – what she was hoping to achieve, and how it got that indelible name.  In a whirlwind first year of government, Richardson takes some drastic steps. And National's challenges come not just from outside, but from within – Muldoon continues to lurk the halls, and there's a charismatic, increasingly popular young MP making trouble, too: Winston Peters.  Includes new and exclusive interviews with Jim Bolger, Ruth Richardson, Jenny Shipley, Susan St John, Helen Clark, Bill Birch, Rob Eaddy, Michael Laws and more.  Click here for full details of archive material used in this series Juggernaut 2 was made with the support of NZ On Air.

Prime Minister's Question Time, also referred to as PMQs, takes place every Wednesday the House of Commons sits.

MPs can then ask supplementary questions on any subject, often one of current political significance.

Elias Makos welcomes back Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the content marketing firm TNKR Media and co-host of the podcast Inspiring Entrepreneurs Canada, and Anne Lagace-Dowson, political analyst. It was hyped as a “generational budget,” but did it live up to that hype? Prime Minister Mark Carney tabled his first ever budget yesterday. The budget cuts the luxury tax on yachts and private jets and boosts funding to the CBC while giving them a super-specific new goal: bringing Canada into the Eurovision contest. Is this what Canadians were asking for?

One our final episode for season seven, we're smelling the ocean on the breeze, losing all MP, putting faith in our strength, spending our brains out, affirming Ghaleon's insanity, declaring Jessica Day, requesting an adult, creating an open door policy, realizing Luna has no idea what the hell Ghaleon was trying to do, starting Jessica's domestic education, causing weird vibes, engaging in scat play, talking to Kyle too many times, raiding Luna's unmentionables, and realizing Victor made the game (multiple interpretations). Season 8, featuring Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium, starts next week! 00:00:00 Slop Children 00:05:39 Intro 00:09:04 Friends Assembled 00:12:56 Meribia NPCs 00:20:59 Meribia Houses 00:41:26 Black Rose Street NPCs 00:49:07 Goodbye, Nash & Mia 00:59:17 Black Rose Street Houses 01:05:51 Meribia Port NPCs 01:07:37 Mel's Mansion NPCs Part I 01:10:28 Goodbye, Kyle & Jessica 01:23:48 Mel's Mansion NPCs Part II 01:27:46 Phacia!? 01:29:15 Tempest!

World Health Organisation figures say one in six people are affected by infertility. Fertility Matters at Work, who provide training for fertility support in the workplace, have published a cost analysis. They have explored the economic impact of not providing time off for fertility treatment - not only on those people directly involved in seeking help, but on businesses and the economy more widely. To discuss further, Nuala McGovern is joined by Alice Macdonald, MP for Norwich North, who will be asking MPs if they agree that a legal right should be given to people to take paid time off work to attend medical appointments for fertility treatment, and Natalie Silverman, co-founder of Fertility Matters at Work.Bella Culley was freed by the Tbilisi City Court today. The 19-year-old, who is eight months pregnant, is from Billingham in Teesside. She was arrested at Tbilisi airport after police found drugs in her luggage and had been held in Georgia on drug trafficking charges since May. Before news of her release, Nuala spoke to Rayhan Demytrie, BBC News Caucasus correspondent, outside the court.The case of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing US health insurance CEO Brian Thompson, is one of the most closely followed legal cases of recent years. The 26-year old-was arrested in December and accused of shooting Mr Thompson, a father of two, outside a Manhattan hotel. He faces the charges of murder and stalking, charges which Mangione denies. While the case continues, something else has been happening. Mangione has attracted an intense, mostly female online following: people sharing pictures of him, writing letters, posting fan edits and memes, and debating his appearance and behaviour in forensic detail. So why does a man accused of violence become the object of fascination and even desire to some women? And what does that say about the digital age we're living in? Nuala talks to Professor David Wilson, criminologist and former prison governor, and Faye Curran, journalist at The New Statesman, who has immersed herself in Mangione's online fandom.Anyone watching Celebrity Traitors at the moment, or indeed the previous Traitors series, has probably noted Claudia Winkleman's iconic looks that seem to sum up both chilly Scottish castle chic and punk power dressing with a smidge of sinister gothic Victorian melodrama thrown into the mix. Claudia's stylist, Sinead McKeefry, has a huge following online by people keen to pick up tips. The power of social media is such that when items are worn by Claudia and flagged online, it can have quite an impact, as small-business owner Lauren Aston found when one of her designs appeared on the show. She joins Nuala to explain what has happened, as does Alison Lynch, head of content at Good Housekeeping Magazine, who has not only written about the Claudia fashion phenomenon, but has even dressed as Claudia in the Traitors herself for a week.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

This week, on another packed episode, Ashleigh, Alyx and Flint rake over the coals about: Esther Ghey, mother of Brianna Ghey, has launched a campaign called Phone-Free Education and the team consider its implications. Multiple organisations have submitted evidence to the Global Alliance of National Human Rights institutions showing that the EHRC is, to put it lightly, not really fulfilling its stated role. A symphony of statistics from two new GLP-instigated YouGov polls.  Labour backbenchers warn of "chaos" if the EHRC's guidance is implemented as is, but not for the reasons you might be expecting.  Before moving on to the meat of the episode, which we've developed alongside https://www.wearequeeraf.com/ and Claire Prosho (https://linktr.ee/CTransTalks). This final part in our series about the UK's Gender Clinic system looks at potential future outcomes, including: The upcoming -although much delayed- Levy Review. Suggested ways for the GIC's to deal with their extreme backlog of patients. The numerous failures of the "specialist clinic" model as it stands. A lack of consistent data standards across the clinics and why this presents a problem.  References: https://whatthetrans.com/ep143 Action Alley:  Widnes Bridge Walk: Walk in solidarity for Transgender Awareness Week If you've been affected by the Virgin active ban on trans people in bathrooms and changing  rooms, as either a member or a staffer, then the Good Law Project would like to hear from you: Post by @goodlawproject.bsky.social TransActual's MP emailing tool: Scrap the Bathroom Ban - Action Network Amnesty's emailing tool to ask the government to remain in the European Convention on Human Rights: Defend our Human Rights – Tell Your MP to Back the ECHR

The war of words between Te Pāti Māori's leadership and two of its MPs has taken a dramatic step today, with president John Tamihere suggesting Mariameno Kapa-Kingi and Tākuta Ferris 'do the honourable thing' and step down. The bombshell social media post follows a move by the party's National Council to suspend Maria-meno Kapa-Kingi, who is MP for Te Tai Tokerau. John Tamihere's comments come as the executive for Te Tai Tonga - Takuta Ferris' electorate - launched a petition calling for Tamihere's resignation. Political reporter Giles Dexter spoke to Lisa Owen. 

The Tanzanian president Samia Suluhu Hassan has been sworn in despite protests over a disputed election, and reports that hundreds of people have been killed in a crackdown by the security forces. We hear from a former MP and diplomat who has been in the country for weeks on holiday.Also on the programme: the author Salman Rushdie speaks to us ahead of the publication of his first work of fiction since being stabbed three years ago. And, could a change in credit-rating to include rental payments help young people get on the housing ladder?

What we reveal will make you question everything. Why are there so many ASL rules? Why is there still banter on this show?  When will it all end? Be warned. The lack of surprising answers may shock you. But we do discuss our recent games of Stargrave, Frostgrave and a look at Dave and Dave's game of FT 205 SCRAGGY from Le Franc Tireur. We also take a look at The Song of Medusa Scenario by Scott Mullins. And we wrap things up with a little Box Art Review of the cover of Mannerheim Cross. This review was written by Dennis Donovan. Theme song by Derek K.

Let there be light! Well, certain types of light, at least. That's what we're discussing down at the Movers and Shakers Arms today, where the gang are joined by Professor Glen Jeffery, an expert in the use of light therapies. Why are some lights – like infrared – good for us, whilst others – like UV – are bad? How does light impact on our mitochondria? And, most importantly, what does any of this have to do with Parkinson's?! Join us for a fascinating dive into a less-discussed, but possibly very important, piece in the puzzle of searching for a PD disease modifier.
