On Christmas Eve 1922, Britain's first original radio drama The Truth About Father Christmas by Phyllis Twigg was broadcast on the early BBC. On Christmas Eve 2025, Britain's latest radio drama The Truth About Phyllis Twigg is broadcast on BBC Radio 4, bringing back to life a little of that first radio play, the tale behind it, and fictionalising some of the quest to help give credit where credit's due. This new drama for Radio 4 is produced by B7 Media and written by Paul Kerensa, who also hosts this podcast - so yes after 111 episodes we've finally brought some of the early BBC story (in this unofficial non-BBC podcast - for tis not made by/with/under them) to today's BBC. Thanks if you've listened to or supported the podcast in any way, as it's all helped make it happen. It takes a village! You are that village. Thanks, village! Episode 72 of this podcast told the tale of Phyllis, and how her achievement as first radio dramatist (we can talk about the American one from a year earlier) seemed to fade from history books as Richard Hughes and his A Comedy of Danger gradually took over as 'first radio drama'. Hmm, what an oddity. With neither a recording nor a surviving script, it was nice to discover a short story version of The Truth About Father Christmas, under Phyllis' pen name - so with that, I pitched the idea to radio drama producer Helen Quigley of B7 Media, and she pitched it to Radio 4's Drama Commissioning Editor - who gladly agreed there was a tale to tell. So on the day this podcast lands, so does our radio drama. We're proud of it - we hope you like it. If you don't, that's fine too. It's not perfect, but it's out there! #JusticeforPhyllis - and that's the goal, hopefully via some festive entertainment for your ears. On this accompanying podcast (unofficial - as it's not BBC), I chat to the cast, crew and descendants of Phyllis Twigg the writer and Arthur Burrows the voice behind Father Christmas, and the man who commissioned her in the first place. So on this bumper episode, you'll hear: Helen Quigley - director Tamsin Greig - who plays Phyllis Twigg Rory Kinnear - who plays Arthur Burrows Will Harrison Wallace - who plays Mr White Aja Dodd - who plays Jenny Adams Carina Saner - great-granddaughter and biographer of Phyllis Twigg Nick Heal - grandson of Arthur Burrows Philippa Heal - great-granddaughter of Arthur Burrows Neil Brand - composer ...Thanks to them and many more for making possible this new drama about the first drama. Oh and you'll also hear the 7min reading of the prose version of The Truth About Father Christmas, voiced by Carina Saner, Flora Saner (great-granddaughter and great-great-granddaughter of Phyllis) and myself (no relation!). Thanks to ME London hotel for sharing the recording with us - we recorded it for them, and they've been playing daily in their Atrium, as they're pretty much on the site of the first BBC studio, where that first radio drama began. I advise you listen to The Truth About Phyllis Twigg first - if it's still on BBC Sounds as you find this podcast. If you can't or haven't, you'll still find plenty in this podcast. It was a joy to make. And as I'm working on the biography of Phyllis with her great-granddaughter Carina (Publishers? Get in touch...), the quest continues...   SHOWNOTES: The Truth About Phyllis Twigg on BBC Radio 4: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002ntmx - it's produced by B7 Media.

This week I'm chatting with the most interesting fashion creator out there, Jay Tibbitts.New York-based Jay has become a real authority on talking about fashion where it's less about opinions and more about facts, statistics and curiosity and what makes him so interesting, especially within the fashion space, is that he's not a creator who simply gushes over collections or churns out instant negative hot takes; instead he embraces curiosity and encourages dialogue.Plus, he has a day job working in social strategy across beauty, tech and hospitality, which gives him this very individual viewpoint on how we use and consume fashion as well as culture in general.If you're a regular listener then you might already have heard Jay making a few appearances in the last episode, number 310, which was my epic SS26 fashion month report. In that episode Jay shared his top show picks from New York, Paris and Milan, but in this episode we dive even deeper into his favourite fashion month moments, and along the way we discuss the more provocative issues that emerged from shows such as Duran Lantink at Jean Paul Gaultier and Pieter Mulier's new vision of Alaïa.We also break down the concept of luxury itself, talk about Matthieu Blazy's Chanel, ask if we still need fashion shows and discuss the prevalence of hot takes from online critics who have no prior knowledge of the fashion industry!LinksFollow Jay at https://www.instagram.com/jaytibbitts/My Substack: https://thecharissereport.substack.comThreads: https://www.threads.net/@charisse_kenion/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charisse_kenion/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@charissekenionCheck out my ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/beautymeBusiness inquiries: info@charissekenion.com  

In this episode we'll talk about:Why the mind tries to think its way into safetyHow over-processing keeps you from experiencing what you're praying forThe emotional and spiritual cost of living in your headWhy embodiment moves you further than mental preparationHow presence deepens intuition and spiritual discernmentLetting life teach you instead of trying to predict itWhy God works through movement, not ruminationThe nervous-system component: how overthinking becomes a coping mechanismand more.
