Today we talk with Sam K. Horton about his debut novel Gorse. we also talk about ancient sites, standing stones, the Cornish landspape, about folklore and myth and about the process of writing and creating new worlds. An author of literary fantasy, Sam lives above the moor in North Cornwall, and draws on its wild landscape, wide skies, and windblown folklore for his work. Growing up on a sheep farm near Hereford, he left for London and trained as a costume designer working in film, theatre and opera before moving into visual art, still working with narratives, texts and stories. It was during his last project, surrounding the discovery and development of Eythin (an island lost off the coast of Cornwall, halfway between Boscastle and the Celtic Deep) that he found his talent for writing rich, detailed mythic worlds. This came as a surprise—despite a lifelong love of reading anything within reach, and over a decade working in libraries—but a welcome one.

In the centuries-long hunt for King Arthur, Camelot, the Knights Templar, and Excalibur, what's been proven true and what was just a myth?

The latest episode was the brainchild of longtime Cinematologist Mark Jenkin (Bait/Enys Men) who wanted to screen one of his favourite films, John Milius's Big Wednesday (1978) at his local cinema, the gorgeous Newlyn Filmhouse, in South West Cornwall.  Over a languorous chat before the screening, and over some wonderful chips, Neil and Mark talk about the film and its director, surfing and Mark's upbringing in North Cornwall, the podcast, film programming, filmmaking and all sorts. During the conversation, the lovely staff from the Filmhouse pop in and out making sure the hosts are ok. After this the episode moves into the screen, where Neil and Mark intro the film and are joined afterwards by a large portion of the sell-out crowd to reflect on the screening and the many complex and moving elements of the film, before Neil and Mark say goodnight on the steps of the cinema as staff close it for the day. Thank you to Mark for choosing the film and being so generous with his time, thoughts and energy at the event. Thanks to Kingsley for manning the roving mic and thanks to Alastair and staff at the Filmhouse for their support, hospitality, and chips.  — You can listen to The Cinematologists for free wherever you listen to podcasts: click here to follow.

#interview #Lorraine Gibson# -https://www.teholisticwellnessschool.com #markantonyraines #ghostmanradiostation -Kernow Healing Fields The Holistic Wellness School is excited to announce the launch of 'Kernow Healing Fields' a conscious healing festival which will take place at Tregrylls Farm, Lesnewth, Boscastle PL35 0HT on 31st May 2024 - 2nd June 2024. This fantastic conscious healing festival is a 3 day wild camping event set on the outskirts of Boscastle in North Cornwall. It's a truly magical costal location steeped in the Celtic history and folklore of this outstanding area of natural beauty. Tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table can be discovered at the legendary castle of Tintagel; visit the Mermaids' altar at Bossiney; Boscastle's Witchcraft Museum, the enchanted St Nectan's Glen waterfall and the grave of the 'Fighting Fairy Woman of Bodmin Town', Joan Wytte, at Minster Church are all a stones throw from this stunning location. This is a conscious festival that is a healing and nurturing experience involving workshops, ceremonies, healers, practitioners, musicians and a multitude of qualified and licensed therapists. All workshops, talks music and dance will be included in the admission price. Healing and 1-2-1's will be charged for individually by the practitioner. We encourage strong connections to the land and to one another. Through this, and through experiencing the therapies, practices and workshops on offer you will discover a deeper connection with yourself. This is a space to be authentic and receive healing and enlightenment in a safe environment. This festival will not have a licensed bar as we encourage people to connect deeply to themselves without intoxicants. This way the healing team are able to hold a safe space for you to release that which is being brought to the surface at this time. However this is also a place to enjoy singing, dancing and conscious musicians in the beautiful wild Cornish landscape. And of course a beautiful camp fire each evening. And so we say to you "Yeghes da, Kernow a 'gas dynergh"!! You can purchase tickets to this event here: https://buytickets.at/kernowhealingfi...

Its Christmas time, so what better way to celebrate than to get the 4 Wanglordz into a hot tub and ply them with beers for many hours? It wasn't all merryment... we surprised ourselves with the amount of legitimate foiling-related chat. Rich and Chris give us the run down on the 'new generation' of foils that are hitting the market that promise huge speed ranges, and combined glide and pumpability that we haven't seen until now. Freddie tells the story of the downwind session with Liam in North Cornwall that resulted in his 3.6m wing getting irrepairably damaged. Many foiling related items get thrown in room 101 and the gang get nostalgic on the past year and beyond. Whatever you are doing, we hope you have a brilliant Christmas and we look forward to sharing more episodes with you in the new year. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Fuck Duotone.

On this walk near her home in North Cornwall, Angeline talks about her deep love for traditional music and her determination to chronicle in song the experiences of black Britons through history. By the grave of the master and slave who are buried together she sings “Slave No More” and on the beach where she first composed it, she performs “Unknown African Boy, (died 1830)”.

Last year Planetary Technologies won the Carbon Xprize Milestone award for their ocean-based CDR method. That same year they started testing their ocean alkalinity enhancement process in a small trial in England, partnering with the local water company. The test showed improved alkalinity and reduced CO2 in local waters. Now the company plans to do a longer, 120-day test this summer, hoping to remove 200 net tons of CO2 from the water.   Planetary has conducted public outreach about their plan, and published a public code of conduct laying out how they intend to make the experiments safe.    But last month protesters gathered at Gwithian beach in North Cornwall, expressing concerns about the potential impact on the bay's marine ecosystem.    In a Guardian article about the project Mike Kelland CEO of Planetary Technologies said “People often say to me: ‘You wouldn't want to swim in this stuff, would you?' But the answer is that we already do because it's already widely used in wastewater management.”    He said that the company would be transparent and diligent in their evaluations and monitoring during the study.    Joining us on this episode are two people who are working firsthand on the issues of public acceptability and community outreach that we've set out to explore CRN- Will Burt, Chief Ocean Scientist at Planetary and Pete Chargin, Planetary's VP of Commercialization and Community Relations.    On This Episode Will Burt Pete Chargin Radhika Moolgavkar   Resources Planetary Technologies Milestone award Planetary's public code of conduct Guardian article on Planetary's proposal   Connect with Nori Nori Nori's Twitter Join Nori's Discord to hang out with other fans of the podcast and Nori Nori's other podcast Reversing Climate Change Nori's CDR meme twitter account   --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/carbonremovalnewsroom/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/carbonremovalnewsroom/support

Autumn is the time for literary festivals, including the mighty 10-day Cheltenham Literature Festival, London's South Bank, the small but beautifully formed Cliveden and many more including Bridport, Petworth, Stratford, Henley, Harrogate, North Cornwall, Braemar and more. But this week we're going to war-torn Ukraine to feature the Lviv Book Forum, in collaboration with Hay Festival, which runs in a bomb shelter between 6th and 9th October. We talk to the courageous and undaunted Programme Director, Sofiya Chelyak, and to the human rights KC, Philippe Sands, celebrated author of East West Street, The Ratline and a new book The Last Colony. Philippe will be attending the extraordinary festival alongside Henry Marsh, Misha Glenny, Margaret Atwood, Yuval Noah Harari, Elif Shafak and Margaret MacMillan. It's actually the 29th edition of the Lviv Book Forum, Ukraine's biggest literary festival, but given the war it's had to be shrunk and with Hay's support, it's defiantly going ahead with just 40 writers. As its digital partner for the first time, Hay will broadcast the conversations free in English, Ukrainian, and Spanish. Sofiya describes the festival as running ‘in defiance of the evil that seeks to squash their freedom,' and so we applaud and admire its efforts to keep these vital conversations alive and deepen our understanding of this little-known, vast and complex country.

In her last Sunday with KXC before embarking on a church planting adventure in North Cornwall, Anna Mason encourages us to live a life of sacrificial love and devotion to Jesus for the sake of King's Cross and beyond.

Avril Greenaway is my guest for Episode 14 of Breakfast & Beyond. Avril is a designer, community activist and entrepreneur, working within the ocean advocacy space.  Based in Bude in North Cornwall, Avril's design work, combined with a love for being in, on and by the sea, has taken her on a fascinating journey focused on raising awareness of, and finding solutions for, the microplastic pollution that is having such a devastating impact on our waterways and ecosystems. Avril has been involved with the Cleaner Seas Project (a Bude-based community group) for 10 years, initially getting involved to create engaging campaigns to raise awareness of microplastic pollution but as you will hear, subsequently getting involved with everything from beach cleans to working with local businesses and hosting conferences.  More recently Avril has become a founding member of the Cleaner Seas Group, which was established with the intention of finding practical, scalable solutions for tackling microplastic pollution.  They are in the early and exciting stage of rolling out a microfibre filter for washing machines; did you know that approximately 91 million microfibres are released into our waterways through washing clothes by each household in the UK, each year? I didn't until talking with Avril, and I hope you find this conversation as informative and engaging as I did. For breakfast with Avril we began with Roasted Rhubarb Overnight Oats and our second course was Asparagus & Lemon Filo Parcels.  Both of these recipes along with the producers and growers whose delicious food I cooked with, and more information about the themes we discuss, can be found via the Episode 14 web page. Thank you for listening, I'd love to know your thoughts on today's episode.  Do join the conversation, you can email me tia@botelet.com or message via Instagram @breakfast_and_beyond Please do subscribe to the podcast, and I'd be so grateful if you could rate and review this episode, then share it with people in your network who you know would enjoy listening.  Thank you so much, welcome to the breakfast table …

Frances reads four letters, written by Bernard, Cuthbert, Arthur and Vera in March and April of 1909.Bernard again apologies for the Budget being lost in the post.Bernard and Enid are going to be the godparents of baby Leslie.Arthur and Bernard go on a long coastal walk. They get the train from Plymouth to Padstow, in North Cornwall, and walk along the coast to Rock, Polzeath, Port Quin, Port Isaac, Tintagel, Boscastle, and then Crackington, they then walk to Otterham, only just catching their train, to return to Plymouth. Cuthbert says Berkhamsted School is again having an epidemic, but the teachers are getting a pay rise, and the school is starting work on some new buildings. Arthur adds his point of view on their Cornish walk. And we get the first report that Mother is not well; Arthur won't post the Budget on, until he hears that Mother is out of danger. Many individual letters and telegrams circulated between the siblings whilst Mother was ill, none of which have survived. Arthur tells more entertaining stories about the servants and schoolboys and we hear about Mount House school, on Hartley Road, for the first time. Arthur soon buys the school and he moves for the start of the new school year, September 1909, taking a good number of Garfield House boys with him.Vera writes a short note, she is exhausted as everyone is ill. Vera doesn't even have the energy to read through the Budget again, to find something to contradict. Machell Cox Budget letters is on Twitter - @CoxLetters.  Or email me if you have found this podcast interesting, machellcoxletters@gmail.comAll content is subject to copyright, and belongs to Frances Thompson and the Bodleian Library. Intro: 00:00Bernard's letter, 12th March 1909 : 02:56Notes on Ber's letter: 17:36Cuthbert's letter, 22nd March: 33:49Arthur's letter, 23rd March: 40:59Notes on Arthur's letter: 56:50Vera's letter, 7th April: 1:03:22

Often the single factor that puts people off changing career or taking on a challenge is the fact that they have to put it out there. They have to announce to the world that they are talking on a project and that. they may fail! In this episode veterinary surgeon and Lib Dem parliamentary candidate Danny Chambers talks about his extraordinary career that stemmed from being a part time vet and has seen him run for public office. He has challenged the normal definitions of career and success and forged his own path. Listen to him talk to Paul Horwood and Tim Bradshaw about the transferable lessons and life skills he has picked up.

In Episode 2 I share breakfast with Frosty (Alistair Frost) founder of Pentire, a non-alcoholic botanical drinks company based in North Cornwall. We discuss the journey of Pentire from the early days of distilling foraged coastal plants and experimenting with flavours, to the growth they have seen as a company since they were established almost two years ago, mirroring the burgeoning interest in non-alcoholic drinks that fit alongside a healthy active lifestyle, and conscious consumerism - purchasing products whose values and modes of working are transparent and sustainable. Pentire are in the process of becoming a B-Corp - a rigorous certification process available to companies that meet the highest standards in terms of prioritising people and the planet alongside profit.  They are a small (but fast growing) company with big ideas and a belief that business can be a force for good.

Summer holiday season is here and it's been scorching in the UK. And despite the pandemic (perhaps because of it?) British beaches have been packed. With half an eye on our suntan and the other half mindful of staying safe in the water, this week we're playing a story from Cornishman Malcolm Jones, retired lifeguard, lifetime surfer, father of three. We first published this a couple of years back before Fatherhood relaunched in lockdown, so pull up a deckchair and relax with the sounds of British Summertime, all recorded on the North Cornwall coast (wish we were there again this year..) Music by DJ Mandray for balancetwo, with additional guitar by Than Gill. Plus we've couple of snippets to help place Malcolm's story: Mr Sandman by Pat Ballard / I Feel the Earth Move by Carole King / Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf / The Jean Genie by David Bowie.

Mazed Tales at North Cornwall Book Festival by North Cornwall Book Festival

“Cecil Hugh Williamson (1909-1999) is, I believe, one of the great unsung heroes of the twilight world of folklore and witchcraft. He is probably best known for founding the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic in Boscastle, North Cornwall, which he ran up until midnight on All Hallows Eve 1996; three years before his passing over in to the spirit world. Unbeknown to many however, this was just part of a colourful and magical career that spanned most of the 20th century. This included working in a Rhodesian tobacco plantation, the pre-war film industry, the British secret services and, most importantly, devoting his life to the study of traditional witchcraft”. Steve Patterson In 1996, whilst helping the then new owner Graham King in refurbishments to the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, Steve happened upon a handwritten manuscript entitled simply ‘Witchcraft’ and containing an intriguing pot-pourri of esoterica from the hand of the Museum’s founder; Cecil Williamson. It is this manuscript which provides the basis for Steve’s book which includes a full annotated transcript of the ‘Witchcraft’ manuscript, a history of Cecil Williamson and the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, a treatise on Cecil Williamson’s vision of traditional Witchcraft – the practices and the philosophy of the wayside witches, an account of his meetings with Aleister Crowley and Gerald Gardner, and a controversial account of his witnessing of the birth of ‘Wicca’. The book is both a valuable reliquary of practices for the traditional witch, and a resource for folklorists and historians alike; telling the tale of a hitherto largely ignored, but hugely influential episode in modern occult history, and one of the great unsung heroes of the twilight world of folklore and witchcraft. A full annotated transcript of Cecil Williamson’s “Witchcraft” manuscript. A History of Cecil Williamson and the Museum of Witchcraft. A treatise on Cecil Williamson’s vision of traditional Witchcraft – the practices and the philosophy of the wayside witches. An account of his meetings with Alistair Crowley and Gerald Gardner, and a controversial account of his witnessing of the birth of ‘Wicca’. An amazing discussion with Steve Patterson about this incredible man, witch and occultist - Cecil Williamson. To know more about this and other books from Troy Books, please visit their website.

A round up of the latest Holistic Events that are taking place during October and early November in the Devon and North Cornwall areas

The October issue of the Holistic Events Diary for North Devon, Mid Devon and North Cornwall.

"From Granite to Sea" is the first ever comprehensive focus on the folklore of eastern Cornwall. Alex Langstone’s ground-breaking study will guide the reader through a myriad of old tales of witches, conjurors and charmers, supernatural encounters, amazing folk traditions and curious customs from the high moors, rugged clifftops, secret coves and lush estuaries across the eastern reaches of the Duchy. Alex Langstone, folklorist, poet and author, has been fascinated by the innumerable legends, myths, ​and folklore of the Cornish landscape for much of his life. He lives in an old slate and granite farmhouse, tucked away in the lush green Camel Valley, North Cornwall. When not writing, he can be found exploring the hidden valleys, secret coves and haunted byways of the Cornish landscape.

Truly compelling and rich with emotional insight , Patrick Gale's Cornish novel, ROUGH MUSIC is a beautiful story of a marriage and the secrets a family holds. 'Sparkling with emotional intelligence. A gripping portrait of a marriage and the quiet, devastating fall-out of family life' Independent Julian is a contented if naïve only child, and a holiday on the coast of North Cornwall should be perfect, especially when distant American cousins join the party. But their arrival brings upheaval and unexpected turmoil. It is only as a seemingly well-adjusted adult that Julian is able to reflect on the realities of his parents' marriage, and to recognise that the happy, cheerful boyhood he thought was his is infused with secrets, loss and the memory of betrayals that have shaped his life.
