Shelly Dooley is the Managing Director for Operation Nightwatch in Seattle; Anita Hale is the Development Director. Operation Nightwatch began over 50 years ago as a street ministry, providing a listening ear, a bit of food, and a heart full of compassion to persons who were living on the streets. This outreach and support have only increased as housing has become more unaffordable for so many, their circumstances in a downward spiral. Operation Nightwatch provides a daily meal and caring connection each evening, with volunteers (who are always well needed) cooking and serving the 150 persons who line up.In a given year, at least 5,000 individuals receive food and connection to services. Some housing is also provided for women and senior men. As costs continue to rise, all financial support is put to good use in our community.www.seattlenightwatch.orgSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

New Yorker magazine poetry editor Kevin Young has called poetry "the most efficient mode of time travel." In his new volume of poems "Night Watch,” Young, a literary hyphenate who edits, writes and teaches, takes readers on a journey of loss and re-emergence. From his cycle of poems about a conjoined pair of twins born into slavery and kidnapped to a carnival freak show to his meditations on grief set to the phases of the moon, Young's spare and incisive language provides the reader passage through history and memory. On this Juneteenth holiday we listen back on our conversation with Young about his collection and what it means to be a poet today. Guests: Kevin Young, poet and author; Young's latest poetry collection is "Night Watch"; Young has been the poetry editor for the New Yorker since 2017 and from 2021 to 2025 served as the director of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode we dive into The Devils by Joe Abercrombie. It's a departure from the grim world of The First Law, leaning into a "monsters vs. monsters" heist set in a supernatural, alternate-history Europe. If you've ever wondered what it would look like if the Vatican recruited a werewolf, a vampire, and a deathless soldier to save the world - well, you're in luck. We discuss the shift in tone, the hilarious "refrains" Joe uses for his characters, and whether this new direction lives up to his legendary fantasy status.  We break down the entire motley crew—from Jakob's "righteous" path to the mystery of Baptiste—and comparing the action to Abercrombie's previous work. Is Viga the new Bloody Nine? Does the humor land as well as the sword-swings? We also feature some of the best takes from our Discord book club, including debating character rethreads, the themes of the book, and who is likely to love the book.

Jayne Anne Phillips has been on the podcast at least three times. First in 2000, with her novel MotherKind. Again in 2014 with Quiet Dell, and the last time in 2023 with Night Watch, before it was announced as the Pulitzer Prize winner. Raymond Carver pronounced her first story collection Black Tickets “stories unlike any in our literature…a crooked beauty” and established Jayne Anne as a writer “in love with the American language.” She published that collection in 1979 when she was only 26. She was praised by Nadine Gordimer as “the best short story writer since Eudora Welty” and Black Tickets has since become a classic of the short story genre. She's also the author of Machine Dreams, Fast Lanes, Shelter, Lark and Termite, which was a finalist for the National Book Award in 2009.   Her latest memoir-in-essays, Small Town Girls, is comprised of 22 pieces tackling everything from the profoundly personal to the historical and sociological. We learn the backstory behind the feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys and the long and complicated history of West Virginia. We learn about Jayne Anne's close relationship with her mother, her experiences with religion, abortion, a mass shooting, and — most important for today's discussion — her lifelong relationship with writing. There are essays about other writers, essays reflecting on the difficulty and necessity of writing, and what this practice has given Jayne Anne, and us, for her entire career. She joins Marrie Stone to talk about all of it.   For more information on Writers on Writing and to become a supporter, visit our Patreon page. For a one-time donation, visit Ko-fi.

How Boston Merchants Turned Private Security Into Public Police

Send us Fan MailPolicing in the United States feels permanent, like it has always been there. But the timeline says otherwise and the motive is even more unsettling: the first publicly funded police force traces back to 1838 Boston, when shipping merchants realized they could stop paying for private guards if they could persuade the city to pay instead. That single cost shift turns “public safety” into an invoice and it forces a different way of reading everything that comes after.We walk through the forgotten systems that came before modern departments, from the Night Watch model that relied on volunteers and the “hue and cry” to constables paid per warrant served, rewarded for processing crime rather than preventing it. Then we pivot to the South's slave patrols, organized government forces built to stop freedom and control labor, with sworn oaths focused on searching enslaved people for weapons. The story isn't clean or comforting, but it is documented and it explains why “order” so often meant protecting property and managing populations that threatened commercial activity.From there, we follow professional policing as it grows in Boston and New York, shaped by political patronage, anti-uniform backlash, and open corruption under machine politics. We revisit the moment the system broke so badly that two rival police forces physically fought each other on the steps of City Hall, and we connect that instability to the long arc of money, elite influence, and the ruthless suppression of unions. Finally, we bring it to the present with modern police budgets, US government spending on policing, and the question that rarely makes it into textbooks: if the system wasn't built for you, who was it built for?If this reframe changes how you think about the history of American policing, share the episode, subscribe, and leave a review so more people can find it.

Welcome to Day 2825 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2825 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 119:49-56 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2825 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2825 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Zayin of Remembrance – Singing Through the Scorn In our previous trek, we journeyed through the sixth stanza of Psalm One Hundred Nineteen, known as the "Waw" section. We witnessed a profound transformation. We saw how clinging to the unfailing love of Yahweh grants us wide-open freedom, giving us the staggering courage to stand before earthly kings and boldly declare the truth, without a shred of shame. We learned that true liberty is not the absence of boundaries, but rather, it is operating perfectly within the cosmic order of the Creator. Today, we take our next deliberate step along this majestic, alphabetical trail. We are entering the seventh stanza of Psalm One Hundred Nineteen. This section corresponds to the seventh letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the letter "Zayin." We will be immersing ourselves in verses forty-nine through fifty-six, in the New Living Translation. In ancient Hebrew pictographs, the letter "Zayin" was often depicted as a sword, or a weapon. That imagery is incredibly fitting for this stanza. When you stand up and speak boldly to the kings and the corrupt cultures of this world, as we did in the previous section, the world will inevitably fight back. The forces of chaos do not surrender quietly. In this stanza, the psalmist is facing fierce pushback. He is suffering, he is being mocked by the arrogant, and he is overwhelmed by the wickedness of the surrounding culture. To survive, he must draw his weapon. And his weapon is memory. He fights back by actively remembering the promises, the age-old regulations, and the very Name of the Most High God. Let us step onto the trail, and learn how to wield the sword of remembrance. The first segment is: The Anchor of Hope in the Storm Psalm One Hundred Nineteen: verses forty-nine and fifty. Remember your promise to me; it is my only hope. Your promise revives me; it comforts me in all my troubles. The stanza opens with a bold, desperate plea directed at the Creator: "Remember your promise to me; it is my only hope." When we read the word "remember" in the Bible, we have to adjust our modern understanding. For humans, remembering is simply a mental exercise; it is recalling a fact that slipped our minds. But for God, remembering is an action. When God "remembers" His covenant, He acts upon it. When He remembered Noah, He sent the wind to dry up the floodwaters. When He remembered Abraham, He rescued Lot from the destruction of Sodom. The psalmist is crying out, "Lord, act on the word You gave Your servant. Move on my behalf!" He states that this promise is his "only hope." In a world dominated by rebel spiritual principalities, human promises are incredibly fragile. Political alliances fail, economies collapse, and earthly kings disappoint us. The word of Yahweh is the only anchor that can hold a human soul steady in the raging storm of the cosmic rebellion. Notice the immediate effect of this divine promise: "Your promise revives me; it comforts me in all my troubles." The Hebrew word for "revive" is chayah, meaning to bring back to life, to quicken, or to restore breath. The psalmist is deeply afflicted. He is weighed down by "all his troubles," feeling the gravitational pull of the grave. Yet, the moment he grips the promise of God, supernatural life flows back into his spiritual veins. The Word of God is not just an ancient historical document; it is a living, breathing mechanism of comfort that performs CPR on a dying, exhausted soul. The second segment is: Unshaken by the Arrogant Psalm One Hundred Nineteen: verses fifty-one and fifty-two. The proud hold me in utter contempt, but I do not turn away from your instructions. I meditate on your age-old regulations; O Lord, they comfort me. As the psalmist draws strength from God's promise, he describes the primary source of his current suffering: "The proud hold me in utter contempt." The "proud," or the arrogant, are a recurring theme in this grand psalm. In the Ancient Israelite worldview, these are the individuals who have aligned themselves with the rebel gods of the nations. They believe they are autonomous. They mock the idea of submitting to the invisible Creator, and they hold those who do submit in "utter contempt." They sneer, they ridicule, and they try to publicly shame the believer. They want the psalmist to feel foolish for trusting in a God he cannot see. But the psalmist deploys his weapon of memory. He declares, "but I do not turn away from your instructions." He refuses to buckle under the intense social pressure. He will not compromise his integrity just to appease the mocking elites of his culture. How does he maintain this fierce, unyielding posture? "I meditate on your age-old regulations; O Lord, they comfort me." This is a brilliant, strategic move. When the contemporary culture mocks you, you must zoom out and look at the eternal timeline. The psalmist calls God's laws "age-old regulations," or judgments from of old. He is remembering that God's cosmic order predates the current, temporary rebellion. Long before these proud mockers were born, and long after their earthly empires crumble to dust, the justice of Yahweh will stand firm. By meditating on the ancient, unshakeable reality of God's throne, the insults of the present moment suddenly lose their sting. The eternal perspective provides a thick, impenetrable shield of comfort against the fleeting contempt of the proud. The third segment: Righteous Indignation and Songs of Exile Psalm One Hundred Nineteen: verses fifty-three and fifty-four. I become furious with the wicked, because they reject your instructions. Your decrees have been the theme of my songs wherever I have lived. The psalmist's emotional landscape shifts from seeking comfort, to experiencing intense, burning zeal. "I become furious with the wicked, because they reject your instructions." The Hebrew word used here for "furious" implies a scorching heat, a burning wind, or a violent indignation. This is not petty, selfish anger because someone cut him off in traffic. This is righteous, holy wrath. Why is he so angry? Because the wicked "reject your instructions." He understands the devastating consequences of forsaking the Torah. When humanity rejects the Creator's blueprint, they invite the dark, chaotic forces of the Divine Council back into the world. They invite injustice, exploitation, and death. The psalmist loves God's order so deeply, that watching the wicked tear it down fills him with a burning, protective fury. Yet, he does not let this anger turn him into a bitter, cynical man. He channels that intense energy into something beautiful, and profoundly subversive. "Your decrees have been the theme of my songs wherever I have lived." The literal Hebrew translation for "wherever I have lived" is "in the house of my sojourning," or "in the house of my exile." This ties directly back to what we learned in the "Gimel" stanza. The believer is a resident alien on this earth, living in hostile, contested territory. How do you survive a lifelong exile surrounded by arrogant mockers, and wicked rebels? You sing. You turn the eternal decrees of the King into poetry, and music. Singing the truths of Scripture embeds them deeply into your memory, and it projects the reality of God's Kingdom into the hostile airwaves of the world. In the dark, temporary lodging of his exile, the psalmist chooses to sing the triumphant songs of his permanent, heavenly home. The fourth segment is: The Night Watch and the Life Well-Spent Psalm One Hundred Nineteen: verses fifty-five and fifty-six. I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord; therefore, I obey your instructions. This is how I spend my life: obeying your commandments. The stanza draws to a close with a quiet, deeply intimate reflection. "I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord; therefore, I obey your instructions." Literally, the text says, "I remember your Name in the night, O Yahweh." In the ancient Near East, the night was a terrifying time. It was the domain of predators, thieves, and the dark, spiritual forces of chaos. Without artificial light, the darkness was absolute, and isolating. It is in the middle of the night that our anxieties usually scream the loudest, and our fears try to overwhelm us. But the psalmist uses the stillness of the night...

Once you do, an investigator will call to schedule your appointment. No appointment? You can still show up, but expect a longer wait. And no, you don’t need to attend both days. The process isn’t quick—it can take hours—so plan ahead. Phase I includes orientation, a physical agility test, an interview, a psych exam, and a background check. If you qualify, you might walk away with a conditional job offer. What’s in it for you? A starting salary between $55,923 and $86,090, a 10% hiring bonus, annual raises, and education incentives (up to 6% for a degree). Night Watch officers even get a 5% shift differential. Requirements? Be 21 by academy graduation, have a high school diploma or GED, a valid driver’s license, and be eligible for P.O.S.T. certification. Ready to apply? Visit GwinnettPoliceJobs.com. STORY 2: Winter storm knocks out power to thousands of Gwinnett homes Winter Storm Fern wreaked havoc in Gwinnett County, leaving more than 10,000 residents without power as of Sunday afternoon. Georgia Power reported that, by 5:30 p.m., 9,741 of its customers in the county were in the dark. Peachtree Corners was hit hardest, with 3,120 outages, followed by Berkley Lake and Duluth (1,729), southwest Lawrenceville (1,797), and another 905 near State Route 316. Walton EMC wasn’t spared either—1,771 customers were without power by 5 p.m. The biggest cluster? Along Five Forks Trickum Road, where 767 homes were affected. Jackson EMC also reported 1,067 outages, with 892 concentrated in Lawrenceville. STORY 3: Parkview grad Quincy Bryant turns NIL experience into financial lifeline for college athletes College athletes are making serious money these days, thanks to NIL deals and revenue sharing. But here’s the thing—most of them don’t know what to do with it. Some have advisors, sure, but plenty don’t. Quincy Bryant, a former Parkview football star and Wake Forest standout, saw it all firsthand. Unlike many, he had a plan. While still in college, he invested his NIL earnings, bought a house, and rented it to teammates. Word spread, and soon, everyone was asking him for financial advice. That’s how Final Whistle Wealth was born. Alongside his former teammate Trent Nicholson, Bryant launched the company to help athletes manage their money and plan for life after sports. They started small—one-on-one sessions, then classes—and eventually built a full program with support from Wake Forest’s Startup Lab. Now, they’re developing an app to make budgeting and financial planning easier for athletes. For more, check out www.finalwhistlewealth.com. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7 STORY 4: Gwinnett County to host Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day on Feb. 7 Got old bug spray, paint cans, or that half-empty bottle of weed killer sitting in your garage? You’re not alone. The EPA calls this stuff “household hazardous waste”—basically, anything that can catch fire, explode, corrode, or poison. And no, you can’t just toss it in the trash or pour it down the drain (seriously, don’t). Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division warns that doing so can pollute groundwater, lakes, and streams. That’s where Gwinnett County’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day comes in. Since 2018, this biannual event has made it easier for residents to safely ditch their hazardous junk. The first event of 2026 is happening Saturday, Feb. 7, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds in Lawrenceville. Accepted items include spray pesticides, auto fluids, batteries, paint, propane cylinders, and even cooking oil. Not accepted? Ammunition, fireworks, electronics, or biohazard waste. Residents can bring up to five containers of waste for free. For details, visit www.GwinnettCB.org or call 770-822-5187. STORY 5: Gwinnett Grads Julian Ashby, Jared Ivey headed to Super Bowl LX Gwinnett County’s got a guaranteed Super Bowl champ this year, no matter what happens on February 8. Why? Two hometown rookies—Parkview’s Julian Ashby and North Gwinnett’s Jared Ivey—are heading to the big game. Ashby’s Patriots edged out the Broncos 10-7 in a snowy AFC Championship, while Ivey’s Seahawks outlasted the Rams 31-27 for the NFC title. Ashby, a 23-year-old long snapper, was flawless in the storm. Drafted in the seventh round by New England, he’s the first long snapper picked since 2021. Before that? Four solid years at Furman and a standout season at Vanderbilt. Ivey, meanwhile, fought his way onto Seattle’s roster as an undrafted free agent. The 6-foot-6 linebacker didn’t play in the NFC Championship but made his mark at Ole Miss with 125 tackles and 16 sacks after transferring from Georgia Tech. No matter who wins, Gwinnett’s streak of Super Bowl champs—now four years running—stays alive. We’ll be right back. Break 3: EAGLE THEATRE Gentleman’s Guide STORY 6: Dr. William Foege, leader in smallpox eradication, dies Dr. William Foege, the towering figure—literally and figuratively—behind the eradication of smallpox, has passed away at 89. He died Saturday in Atlanta, according to the Task Force for Global Health, which he co-founded. At 6-foot-7, Foege was hard to miss, but it was his brilliance and calm determination that truly set him apart. A former CDC director in the late ’70s and early ’80s, he spent his life battling infectious diseases and reshaping global health. His crowning achievement? Smallpox. In the 1960s, while working as a medical missionary in Nigeria, Foege pioneered the “ring containment” strategy—vaccinating only those in contact with infected individuals. It was a bold, resourceful move born out of necessity (there wasn’t enough vaccine to go around). And it worked. By 1980, the World Health Organization declared smallpox eradicated, saving hundreds of millions of lives. STORY 7: State House to operate minus one member after suspension from office The Georgia General Assembly is down yet another lawmaker this session—this time, it’s State Rep. Sharon Henderson, who’s been suspended after a federal indictment. Governor Brian Kemp signed the suspension Thursday, following a committee’s decision that Henderson’s charges “adversely affect” her ability to serve. She’s accused of two counts of theft of government funds and 10 counts of making false statements tied to federal unemployment benefits during the pandemic. Her case? It’s not moving fast—pretrial’s set for Feb. 19. Meanwhile, former Rep. Karen Bennett, resolved similar charges quickly, pleading guilty to fraudulently claiming $13,940 in pandemic relief. Kemp, required by the state constitution, appointed a review committee for Henderson’s case, including Attorney General Chris Carr, Rep. Jan Jones, and Sen. Harold Jones II. Their findings led to her suspension. With several legislative seats still vacant, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is scheduling special elections, including one for Bennett’s seat on March 10.

You can find Jessica Walker on IG @hellojessicawalker   In this week's episode, we're talking to debut novelist and assistant professor of fine arts at Parsons School of Design Jessica Walker, whose novel Amy discovered late last year. The Secret Astronomers is an illustrated novel, which is not the same as a graphic novel.  This is a novel that is written on sticky notes between two people inside a book.  It's in full color and really eye-catching. Although it is technically geared towards young adults, it is a feast for the eyes for any age reader.  The story is about two girls who keep their identities secret from each other and converse through an old astronomy textbook in the school library. This new take on the epistolary novel takes the reader on an adventure to solve a mystery in this small West Virginia town.     And in our book rec section, inspired by the West Virginia setting of The Secret Astronomers, we're giving you other books set in The Mountain State. We have a mystery, a Pulitzer Prize winner, several historical fiction, and an investigative nonfiction.   Books Mentioned in this Episode:   1- The Secret Astronomers by Jessica Walker  2- I Am The Messenger by Markus Zusak  3- Neanderthal Opens the Door to the Universe by Preston Norton  4- Floreana by Midge Raymond  5- What You are Getting Wrong About Appalachia by Elizabeth Catte  6- Yellow Singing Sail: A Memoir of an Only Child in China by Yinfan Huang  7- Otto: A Palindrama by Jon Agee  8- Griffin & Sabine: An Extraordinary Address Book by Nick Bantok  9- My Father's Paradise: A Son's Search for a Jewish Past in Kurdish Iraq by Ariel Sabar 10- The Doorman by Chris Pavone 11- A Five Star Read by Fellow Book Lover Karla @karla_bookishlife - Blood Like Ours and Blood Like Mine by Stuart Neville 12- The Road to Blair Mountain by Charles Keeney 13- The Lost Story by Meg Shaffer 14- The Unquiet Grave by Sharyn McCrumb 15- Night Watch by Jayne Anne Phillips 16- The Quiet Zone: Unraveling the Mystery of a Town Suspended in Silence by Stephen Kurczy 17- The Third Rainbow Girl by Emma Copley Eisenberg 18- Foote: A Mystery Novel by Tom Bredehoft 19- The Coffin Quilt: The Feud Between the Hatfields and McCoys by Ann Rinaldi 20- The Grand Design by Joy Calloway   Media Mentioned: 1- Footnotes and Tangents Substack - War and Peace 2- Eden (Netflix, 2024) 3- Our episode with Meg Shaffer - https://ThePerksofBeingaBookLover.podbean.com/e/s12ep249-the-lost-story-with-guest-meg-shaffer-11525/ 4- Article about Reading Resetting the Nervous System - https://www.hellomagazine.com/healthandbeauty/health-and-fitness/873671/why-reading-cures-overactive-nervous-system-experts-explain/

If you want more time, better energy, and a calmer mind, this episode gives you a blueprint for achieving it. Host Dave Asprey talks with entrepreneur Jonathan Swanson, who explains how delegation functions as a powerful form of biohacking that frees cognitive load, improves sleep quality, protects your mitochondria from chronic stress, and opens space for longevity, brain optimization, supplements, fasting, ketosis, and the full Human Upgrade approach. Jonathan shows how eliminating low value tasks can reclaim hours every day and upgrade your human performance far more than people realize. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Jonathan Swanson is the Founder and Chairman of Thumbtack and Athena, two global companies he scaled to more than one thousand team members each. He has raised over seven hundred million dollars from leading investors including Sequoia Capital, Google Capital, and Blackstone. At Thumbtack he built one of the top marketplaces for local services. At Athena he created an elite academy for executive assistants and leadership development. Jonathan also served in the West Wing for the President's chief economic advisor, giving him rare insight into time leverage, decision making, and performance under pressure. Jonathan breaks down why overloaded to do lists elevate stress hormones, reduce neuroplasticity, interfere with recovery, and sabotage longevity goals. He explains how removing decision fatigue improves metabolism and cognitive function, how AI can accelerate human support instead of replacing it, and why even small forms of leverage increase ambition, resilience, and overall life satisfaction. Jonathan shares real examples from scaling billion dollar companies, building global teams, managing his own health routines, and designing systems that create more time for family, recovery, and meaningful work. You'll Learn: • Why leverage comes before ambition, not after, and how that shift changes what you believe is possible in your life • How Jonathan went from 16 to 18 hour days and polyphasic sleep to becoming a “time billionaire” through ruthless delegation • The cardinal sin of delegation, why doing it yourself feels faster at first, and how that belief traps you in busywork • The stages of delegation, from single tasks to projects to goals to “clairvoyant delegation,” where you first hear about a task when it is already done • How to start at any budget level, from using AI as a starter assistant, to hiring directly on global platforms, to working with a fully trained Athena EA • Practical ways an assistant can support biohacking, sleep optimization, supplements, lab tracking, family logistics, and even creative life projects • How to build trust, set boundaries, and protect security when you work with remote assistants who have access to sensitive parts of your life• Why human plus AI assistants beat AI alone, and how the next generation of support will supercharge human performance instead of replacing it • How to think about your hourly rate so you stop doing tasks that kill your metabolism, focus, and long term longevity Thank you to our sponsors! -BEYOND Conference 2026 | Register now at https://beyondconference.com/ -BrainTap | Go to http://braintap.com/dave to get $100 off the BrainTap Power Bundle. -Essentia | Go to https://myessentia.com/dave and use code DAVE for $100 off The Dave Asprey Upgrade. -Generation Lab | Go to http://generationlab.com/, use code Dave20 for $20 off, and see what your body's really doing behind the surface.

After Donald Trump's threats to annex Greenland, Denmark's Foreign Affairs Ministry establishes a new "night watch" of bureaucrats -- who keep an eye on the U.S. President after hours. A B.C. Indigenous leader says he's not interested in sitting down with a minister from Alberta's government -- because he is never going to support a bitumen pipeline. There are furious calls for accountability after a video the UN is calling an "apparent summary execution" by Israeli border police is broadcast. A human rights advocate tells us that accountability won't happen. After months of pressure, Nova Scotia releases a draft report from a special panel on environmental racism. Our guest tells us it's about time the province answers the call for a formal apology.Archeologists say they now have hard evidence that a ring of large pits discovered near Stonehenge were made by humans some 4,000 years ago -- but why is still a mystery. A South Korean man was charged with theft after taking about a dollar's worth of treats from the office refrigerator -- and after his employer takes him to court, he finds himself snack-dab in the middle of a major case.

As the nights get darker and we all get a bit spookier... we speak to Charlie Cooper about his fab BBC ghost-hunting show Nightwatch. It's a deeply creepy 6-part docu-series featuring Charlie and his sister Daisy May Cooper as they travel to the UK's most terrifying haunted locations in search of ghosts... STUNNING.  We discuss sibling dynamics, who scared the shit out of who, the ghost hunts that have shit us up and whether or not we fancy cartoon animals.   We hear about true paranormal experiences (mimics anyone?), whether or not we all believe in the afterlife and the chilling 70s story of a haunted bothy and a possessed deck chair. Daisy sadly couldn't join us, but sends us in a voice note of a VERY CREEPY Isle of Wight legend 'the Sand Down Clown'.  We end with a touch of telepathy... does it... actually... work?  Enjoy this meandering ghosty chit chat and go see Nightwatch on BBC iPlayer or Sundays 9.30pm on BBC2.

Kevin Young is the poetry editor for The New Yorker, and the author of many books of his own poetry. His newest work, “Night Watch,” focusses on death, while also drawing upon his wide view of history, from the end of slavery in the U.S. to Dante's seven-hundred-year-old poem “The Divine Comedy.” Young tells David Remnick that Dante actually played an outsized role in bringing “Night Watch” to life: “This is a book that, I think, without him, I would have kept in a drawer because the subjects were kind of dark that I was trying to contend with, and [Dante] gave a framework for me,” Young explains. “How do you write about [hell] and frame it as a journey rather than a morass?”

New Yorker magazine poetry editor Kevin Young has called poetry “the most efficient mode of time travel.” In his new volume of poems “Night Watch,” Young, a literary hyphenate who edits, writes and teaches, takes readers on a journey of loss and re-emergence. From his cycle of poems about a conjoined pair of twins born into slavery and kidnapped to a carnival freak show to his meditations on grief set to the phases of the moon, Young's spare and incisive language provides the reader passage through history and memory.
