I think you reach a certain age, where you start to become very reflective on your life – where you've been and where you're headed. For me, this weekend provides the opportunity to take time out of my busy schedule and reinforce what I already know… my Dad is truly a role model and mentor. There are always actions and traits that dads pass down to their sons – how to shave, how to carry oneself, and… how to tie a necktie. But where did that last fashion statement originate. The formality of knotting a piece of material around one's neck in a Windsor, half-Windsor, four-in-hand, Prince Albert, simple, Kelvin, Pratt, Eldredge, Van Wijk, Trinity, Murrell, Balthus and… the classic bow-tie. Phew! That's a knot to try and digest, but, as is the case on every episode of The Missing Chapter, we'll dissect all of the history behind the origins on this Father's Day tribute and, if you're watching us, you'll see us demonstrate our own preference on how to tie our ties. It's a Missing Chapter, Father's Day Special, and it wouldn't be complete without the coffee. Thanks for joining us!Want some Missing Chapter merchandise? Click HERE!

Ingratitude: The Sin That No One Sees (Jim Murrell) In this lesson, Jim Murrell examines the often-overlooked sin of ingratitude. Using Luke 17:11–19 and Romans 1:18–32, he demonstrates that thankfulness is far more than good manners—it is a matter of the heart. Discover how a lack of gratitude can lead to spiritual decline and learn practical ways to cultivate a thankful spirit that honors God. Key Texts: Luke 17:11–19; Romans 1:18–32 Speaker: Jim Murrell Theme: Gratitude, Contentment, Christian Living, Spiritual Growth

A wide-ranging edition of Overdrive examines how transport policy, motoring costs and changing consumer behaviour are reshaping Australian mobility. David Brown and Paul Murrell debate apartment parking mandates, shifting new-car pricing, church-based car sharing and whether high-speed buses could outperform costly rail projects. They also unpack the risks and realities of extended warranties, political “U-turns”, Jaguar's controversial EV naming strategy and road test the latest Suzuki Swift hybrid hatch. Parking Policy, Warranty Risks, Reimagining Buses Episode Breakdown • Apartment Parking Debate — 00:01 • Car Discounts and Market Shifts — 00:23 • Church Car Sharing Trial — 00:34 • High-Speed Bus Concept — 00:43 • Extended Warranty Concerns — 00:56 • Jaguar's “Type Zero 1” Naming — 01:42 • Suzuki Swift Hybrid Review — 01:48 Apartment Parking Debate The program opens with discussion around a Grattan Institute report claiming mandatory parking minimums are adding major costs to apartment developments. David Brown and Paul Murrell argue the issue is more complex than headline figures suggest, particularly when balancing resident needs, on-street congestion and transport alternatives. They question whether governments should dictate parking requirements or let the market decide, while also warning against simplistic “one-size-fits-all” urban planning policies. The broader conversation explores density, public transport limitations and the social cost of inadequate parking infrastructure. Car Discounts and Market Shifts The hosts note a dramatic turnaround in the new-car market, with manufacturers now offering aggressive EOFY incentives after years of shortages and waiting lists. Electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids are seeing especially heavy discounting. They discuss negotiation tactics, depreciation concerns and how sudden price cuts affect both new and used vehicle values. The conversation also touches on how emissions rules may influence future vehicle pricing and fleet choices. Church Car Sharing Trial A University of Sydney project involving church-based car sharing sparks discussion about community transport behaviour. The idea encourages parishioners to travel together rather than individually, potentially reducing congestion, parking demand and emissions. Brown argues these initiatives work best when practical benefits are demonstrated rather than simply promoted as moral obligations. The segment also revisits broader themes of social connection, community responsibility and smarter transport use. High-Speed Bus Concept California's proposal for high-speed buses using dedicated freeway lanes prompts debate about whether buses deserve renewed attention as efficient transport solutions. The hosts compare the concept with the escalating costs of high-speed rail projects in both the US and Australia. Murrell argues buses offer greater flexibility and potentially lower infrastructure costs, while Brown highlights the limitations of rail when destinations lie outside major corridors. Comfort, practicality and regional connectivity become key themes. Extended Warranty Concerns A listener's question about a costly Mercedes-Benz extended warranty leads to an in-depth discussion about warranty value, exclusions and servicing obligations. The hosts explain how third-party warranties can create complications and why consumers must carefully read conditions. They also explore dealer incentives, manufacturer goodwill claims and the importance of documented servicing history. The segment stresses calm negotiation and escalation to manufacturers where legitimate faults arise outside formal warranty periods. Jaguar's “Type Zero 1” Naming Jaguar's naming strategy for its upcoming EV receives a sceptical response. Brown and Murrell question the logic behind “Type Zero 1”, arguing it disrupts Jaguar's established naming heritage such as C-Type and E-Type. The discussion broadens into branding, language structure and how overcomplicated product names often require unnecessary explanation — a sign, they suggest, of weak marketing execution. Suzuki Swift Hybrid Review The latest Suzuki Swift hybrid is assessed as an affordable, efficient and practical hatchback that remains true to its roots. The hosts praise its value, compact dimensions and real-world usability, while acknowledging compromises in refinement and safety technology. They discuss hybrid efficiency, suspension design, pricing and the continued appeal of small hatchbacks in a market dominated by SUVs. Safety ratings and consumer attitudes toward crash protection also receive close attention.

"Pure cold rage": Will Nigel Farage regret his intervention over the murder of Henry Nowak?Beth, Ruth and Harriet discuss whether Farage is pandering to the far right, or if he has a point about "two-tier policing" in Britain.And, as Nicola Sturgeon attempts to distance herself from her estranged husband Peter Murrell – Ruth asks if her legacy is now forever tarnished.Nicola Sturgeon has said she was “completely cleared and exonerated” by police and that she had been “misled” and “deceived” by Murrell.For a full list of candidates standing in Makerfield, visit the Electoral Commission website.We are happy to clarify that initiated Sikh women, like initiated Sikh men, are required to wear a kirpan as part of the religion.

The prime minister has accused Elon Musk of 'interfering' in UK politics, after he posted repeatedly on X about the police's treatment of Henry Nowak.NHS England says it will ban staff from wearing political badges as part of measures aimed at tacking antisemitism and other forms of racism. Britain's only serving female commando Lieutenant Lily-Mae Fisher has been named as one of the three members of the Royal Navy who died in a helicopter crash yesterday. She was on board the Merlin 4 aircraft alongside 42-year-old Lieutenant Commander Chris Gayson and 24-year-old Petty Officer Owen Green.Scotland's First Minister John Swinney has said his party may have claimed back tax on items purchased by its former chief executive Peter Murrell, who last week admitted embezzling more than 400 thousand pounds from the SNP.01:56 Henry Nowak treatment 06:50 NHS antisemitism measures 10:06 Helicopter pilots named 12:05 Lebanon ceasefire 15:04 SNP on Murrell's tax 17:46 World Cup water bottles 20:02 Teacher shortages 21:54 Hampshire rape sentencing 24:30 Strikes in Crimea 27:59 Bob Harris tribute(Image: Reuters)
Peter Murrell, the former chief executive of the SNP and estranged husband of Nicola Sturgeon, has admitted embezzling more than £400,000 from the Scottish National Party. Which is quite a sentence, even by the standards of modern politics, where the bar is now lying somewhere in a ditch wearing a hi-vis jacket.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at the Peter Murrell SNP scandal, the political fallout for Nicola Sturgeon, and the bigger question facing Scottish nationalism: how did a party that wanted to govern an independent Scotland fail to notice what was happening inside its own finances?This is not an episode claiming Nicola Sturgeon committed a crime. She denies knowledge of Murrell's actions and has been cleared by police. But politics is not only about criminal guilt. It is also about responsibility, judgement, leadership, culture, and whether the people at the top were really as in control as they claimed to be. And that, frankly, is where the story becomes more interesting, and rather less comfortable.We discuss the SNP's long-standing image as the clean, competent alternative to Westminster, the collapse of that moral authority, Operation Branchform, the infamous motorhome, party trust, Scottish independence, political accountability, and the strange spectacle of a nationalist movement damaged not by Westminster oppression, but by its own internal chaos.There is also a Bible verse, naturally, because Mark and Pete are not here merely to gawp at the wreckage like political pigeons. Proverbs says, “He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.” That seems uncomfortably apt.So what did Nicola Sturgeon know? What should she have known? And what does the Peter Murrell embezzlement case tell us about the SNP, Scottish politics, and the danger of confusing political confidence with actual competence?A sharp, Christian, sardonic look at one of the biggest political scandals in recent Scottish history.

Today, the Prime minister says he “felt sick” as he watched the body cam footage of a student who was handcuffed as he lay dying.The 18-year-old Southampton student Henry Nowak was handcuffed after Vickrum Digwa, 23, lied to police at the scene of the 2025 stabbing, claiming he had been the victim of a racist attack.

Increasingly, it looks like the scandal that has rocked the SNP will not go away. Peter Murrell's admission and subsequent conviction have led to more questions. Bernard Ponsonby and Alex Massie discuss.PONSONBY - John Swinney may need an independent inquiry into SNP governance, because a party-led response risks looking like a whitewash.MASSIE - Nicola Sturgeon's core problem is not only “what did she know?” but “what should she have known?” as SNP leader signing off party accounts.PONSONBY - Many mainstream journalists were “asleep at the wheel” while Sean Clerkin and Stuart Campbell kept pressing questions others dismissed.MASSIE - the SNP may face an impossible choice: stand by Sturgeon or “throw her under the campervan” to draw a line under the scandal.PONSONBY - the SNP finance scandal is sensational but may not have a lasting electoral impact — unless the party mishandles the demand for answers.Focussing on UK, Scottish and Global politics, if you like other great political podcasts like The Rest is Politics, The News Agents, Newscast, Questions Time, Holyrood Sources, Planet Holyrood, The Stooshie, The Steamie, Scotcast, Americast etc etc then The Ponsonby and Massie Podcast could be a great show to add to your list of favourites.

Political commentator Mike Indian discusses the essay from the Ghost of Labour Past, Tony Blair, saying that Labour has lost its way. While he is right about some things, the essay has gone down like a lead balloon with many in the party, with Andy Burnham and Wes Streeting laying into him. Ahead of the Makerfield by-election, Labour is in a holding pattern. Whoever does succeed Keir Starmer will face a challenging landscape, to say the very least. Peter Murrell, who was at the heard of Scotland's governing party for 15 years or so, has admitted to embezzling £400,000. The estranged husband of Nicola Sturgeon, Murrell's case raises questions about her judgement and perhaps explains why she resigned so suddenly. Alan Milburn's "lost generation" report shows that today's young people face a perfect storm. Being detached from the labour market could harm them for the rest of their lives. But the report is not likely to find much sympathy within the Starmer government. Nor is there much in it to give young people hope. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this study of The Gospel of Mark 7:5–13, Jim Murrell examines the growing conflict between Jesus and the Pharisees as human tradition begins to overshadow divine truth. This lesson explores the danger of elevating religious customs above the clear teaching of God's Word and challenges us to examine whether our faith is built on Scripture or simply on inherited practice.
In this study of The Gospel of Mark 7:1–4, Jim Murrell examines the growing conflict between Jesus and the Pharisees as human tradition begins to overshadow divine truth. This lesson explores the danger of elevating religious customs above the clear teaching of God's Word and challenges us to examine whether our faith is built on Scripture or simply on inherited practice.
In this episode, Jim Murrell studies Proverbs 3:5-7 and reminds us that God's will is always greater than our own understanding. Learn what it means to trust the Lord fully, stop leaning on self, and follow His direction for life. When we trust God's way, we find the path He has prepared.
Life is a journey filled with pressure, pain, setbacks, and uncertainty. In this sermon from 2 Corinthians 4:8–18, Jim Murrell explores how the apostle Paul reminds us that though the outward man is perishing, the inward man can be renewed day by day through faith in Christ. This message offers encouragement for every believer walking through the struggles of life while keeping their eyes on eternal things.

THIS IS PART TWO OF TWO. On Wednesday 21st of March 1984, 79-year-old Hilda Murrell of Shropshire was attacked in her own home by an unseen assailant.

When the disciples found themselves straining against the wind in the middle of the sea, Jesus came to them in the most unexpected way—walking on the water. In this episode, Jim Murrell takes us through Mark 6:45–48 (part two pod our discussion), a passage that shows not only Christ's power over creation but also His presence in our storms. We'll explore the context of this miracle, the meaning behind Jesus' actions, and the comfort we can find knowing that even when life's winds are against us, the Lord still sees us, comes to us, and strengthens our faith. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by struggles and wondered if God notices, this study will remind you that He not only notices—He draws near in the darkest hours.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to the team behind California Schemin' including director and co-star James McAvoy, as well as the films' stars Samuel Bottomley, Séamus McLean Ross, Rebekah Murrell and Lucy Halliday. Based on an outrageous true story, CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN' is a wild ride through ambition, identity, and the high-stakes world of musical make-believe. In the early 2000's, Dundee rappers Gavin Bain and Billy Boyd were talented, hungry, but dismissed for sounding "too Scottish" to make it in hip hop. So they hatched an audacious plan: fake American identities, re-record their tracks with Californian accents, and hustle their way into the heart of the UK music industry as “Silibil N' Brains”—childhood friends of D12 and stars-in-the-making. To their shock, the plan works. Record deals, media buzz, and gigs with hip hop legends follow. But as their deception deepens, the pressure mounts and cracks begin to show. How long can you live the dream when it's built on a lie? With bold humour, raw emotion, and a defiant spirit, CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN' is a love letter to outsiders, underdogs, and the pursuit of fame—but asks, at what cost. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Send us Fan MailYour mind loves to act like the CEO of your life, but it's often the last to know what's true. Garry Schleifer sits down with Lisa Murrell, PCC, to explore embodied choice and why clients don't actually make decisions with thoughts alone. We talk about somatic coaching in a way that's practical, grounded, and immediately usable, whether you coach leaders in Fortune 500 environments or support clients through personal transitions.Lisa shares how her work in systemic coaching and equine facilitated learning changed the way she understands “getting unstuck.” The big shift is simple but radical: the body is a sensory device, and breath, tension, and capacity are data. When a client's nervous system is braced, options shrink. When we slow down, notice what's happening below the neck, and build real trust, choice expands. We also dig into intersubjectivity, the shared space between coach and client where presence replaces performance and new possibilities can emerge.You'll hear why new coaches can get trapped chasing the “best coaching questions,” and what to do instead. Lisa explains her signature reframe “What would you do if this was your horse?” and how it works as a metaphor even for non-horse people, helping clients step out of self-judgment and into clearer action. If you're curious about executive coaching, embodied leadership, somatics, and coaching presence that actually changes behavior, this conversation delivers.Watch the full interview by clicking here.

Overdrive: F1 tech, attention drift and the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Mercedes starts the 2026 Formula One season with a one-two in Melbourne, prompting a broader discussion about race-car complexity, driver workload and visibility. David Brown and Paul Murrell also cover cars on screen, faster EV charging, a tiny classic car selling for big money, and whether shrinking attention spans are making everyday driving worse. The episode finishes with a practical road test of the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Episode Breakdown F1 season opens with Mercedes — 00:01:02 Driver overload and visibility — 00:03:07 Cars in film and culture — 00:09:42 EV charging moves faster — 00:16:37 Tiny classic, huge price — 00:26:00 Are drivers losing focus? — 00:28:57 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon tested — 00:40:11 F1 season opens with Mercedes George Russell leads Kimi Antonelli home for a Mercedes one-two at the Australian Grand Prix, ahead of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. The result opens a wider chat about how modern F1 cars load drivers with information, controls and constant feedback. Brown and Murrell reflect on Oscar Piastri's formation-lap crash and the reality that even the world's most advanced cars can catch drivers out. They also touch on downforce, mirrors, cameras and the old racing art of finding an edge within the rules. Driver overload and visibility From F1, the discussion moves to the limits of attention. Murrell notes how much information elite drivers process at speed, while Brown questions whether more screens and warnings always help. That leads neatly into road cars: camera mirrors, rearward vision and driver aids that can support safety but also add distraction. It is one of the episode's strongest themes. Cars in film and culture A story about Hispano Suiza appearing in a Barcelona-set streaming drama sparks a lively detour into product placement. The pair compare movie cars that became icons with others that gained screen fame without commercial success. The DeLorean, Mad Max Falcon, Monaro, Mini and Kingswood Country all get a run. Their broader point is that cars once carried more cultural aspiration than they do for many younger people today. EV charging moves faster Polestar's updated 3 electric SUV brings quicker charging, more computing power and stronger specs, but the hosts wonder whether the market is already moving beyond it. Public charging access remains as important as headline recharge times. That sets up BYD's latest ultra-fast charging claims. Murrell sees the technology as a possible answer to range anxiety, while Brown notes how quickly EV development is making long product cycles look outdated. Tiny classic, huge price Murrell highlights the sale of a Peel P50 for an extraordinary figure, reviving the old question of what makes a classic valuable. Rarity, novelty and collector appeal clearly matter more than practicality. The pair enjoy the absurdity of a tiny car with no reverse gear and barely any mass. It is a light segment, but it says a lot about classic-car culture. Are drivers losing focus? This is the feature segment: a thoughtful look at whether digital life is reducing attention spans and weakening driving standards. Murrell links phone use, GPS dependence and constant information flow to poorer focus and spatial awareness. Brown broadens the issue to sleep, stress, work pressure and the design of in-car warnings. Their conclusion is clear: better driving now depends as much on managing distraction as on handling the vehicle. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon tested The Wrangler Rubicon is presented as a serious off-roader that has grown larger, dearer and more civilised, but still carries compromises. Brown finds it more usable in daily driving than expected, though wind and tyre noise remain part of the deal. Murrell agrees it is still a niche buy, but one with real off-road credibility and a loyal following willing to forgive its rough edges. It remains an adventure machine first and a commuter second.
14-year-old Otto Schellhammer from Pittsburgh, who says it “was all luck,” has managed to pick all of the correct winners so far in the women’s NCAA tournament. As other TikTok users shared similar stories—sudden infusions of cash, new job openings—“Ring My Bell” has surged. Last December, it was earning a little more than 200,000 streams a week on average in the U.S. That number was up 10-fold in the first half of March, according to the data company Luminate. A rare, original C‑3PO head from Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back sold for $1.058 million at Propstore’s entertainment memorabilia auction—making it the top sale of the event so far. Believed to be the only head from the film available on the collector’s market—and featuring working light‑up eyes—the piece far exceeded its estimated $350K–$700K range. Five Guys CEO Jerry Murrell distributed $1.5 million in bonuses to employees after a buy-one-get-one (BOGO) promotion celebrating the chain’s 40th anniversary overwhelmed stores. The unexpected rush crashed systems and depleted food supplies, leading Murrell to compensate the "hardworking crews" with $1,000 per location for their efforts.
