In this episode we convene a few days after Arsenal lost the Champions League final to PSG in Budapest. So much has happened since then, that's it's hard to really keep track, but we go chronologically through the trips to Hungary, the atmosphere in the city among other Arsenal fans, and lots more before we get to the game itself. Kai Havertz's early goal had a big impact on the game, not simply by virtue of putting us ahead, but how it influenced the game state. There's discussion of the penalty they were awarded and the one we weren't, the referee's performance, extra-time, and ultimately the heartbreak of the penalty shoot-out with analysis of the takers and the order in which they were taken. After some reflections on how it all felt, we go into part 2 to talk about the post-game reaction in Budapest, what we can learn from this game, before focusing on the incredible scenes in North London at the parade which really helped diminish the pain of the night before. We also take some listener questions about Josh Kroenke and his role, the potential profile of summer signings, Arsenal being emotional, and loads more besides. It's a long one, strap in!Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

The panel return on this edition to discuss Tottenham Hotspur closing in on the signings of Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson, with both deals now agreed in principle as Roberto De Zerbi's rebuild gathers pace in North London. We also reflect on the news that Tottenham Hotspur have ‘pulled out' of the race to sign Joao Palhinha. Spurs' buy option expires on Monday, and Sporting CP are moving ahead with the deal. Talks with Bayern Munich are expected to follow. Palhinha impressed on loan at Spurs and has expressed a desire to stay, with the London club holding a €30 million purchase option. Sporting want to bring the 30-year-old back to Lisbon, where he began his career. The midfielder is willing to take a significant pay cut to rejoin his boyhood club, and a broad understanding with the player is said to be in place. A new loan move for Luka Vuskovic to Hamburger SV is apparently not a current option avaliable. The Croatian has two options: Long-term contract extension with high salary. A move to one of the biggest clubs in Europe. Talks are ongoing over the player's future. Luka Vuskovic has revealed his Tottenham future will not be decided until after the World Cup. We discuss what the best next step is for the youngster. Tottenham Hotspur are expected to strengthen their attack this summer, and a new report suggests that Marcus Rashford could become an option. Spurs have reportedly shown interest in signing Marcus Rashford this summer after a 28-goal contribution season with Barcelona, during which he scored 14 goals and provided 14 assists. We debate whether the Club could entice him into coming to the club and whether Spurs can get the best out of him. Finally we close on the news that Spurs have launched an internal review into last season. An internal review has been ongoing since the appointment of Dan Lewindon as Performance Director from Manchester City. This comes after he found significant challenges within Spurs. He joined the Club one day before Thomas Frank was sacked. We reflect on whether the Club will take the learnings from last season and put them into action in both the upcoming window in addition to decisions made both off/on the pitch.

After twenty-two long years, Arsenal are champions again. The jokes about “bottling it” can finally be retired, at least temporarily, and somewhere in North London a generation of supporters are still wandering around in a state of emotional confusion, unsure whether to sing, cry or simply phone relatives they have not spoken to since the Wenger era.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at Arsenal's long-awaited Premier League triumph and the surprisingly serious question hidden underneath all the celebrations. Why does football matter so much to people, especially men who otherwise communicate most emotions through grunting softly at the television while making tea?The discussion follows a recent study suggesting many men display stronger visible emotion during football than in almost any other part of life. Victories bring joy, relief and hugging strangers. Defeats produce silence so profound entire households can feel it settling over the furniture. A missed penalty can apparently alter the emotional climate of a semi-detached house for forty-eight hours.Along the way Mark and Pete talk about loyalty, tribalism, fathers and sons watching football together, the strange liturgy of the football crowd, and why modern society often mocks male passion unless it happens to involve sport.There is also reflection on the emotional hunger sitting underneath much of modern life. Football cannot save anyone, obviously, though some supporters continue to test the theory every season. But it does reveal something important about human beings. We long to belong to something bigger than ourselves. We want shared stories, shared victories and somewhere to place hope, even if that hope is wearing a slightly faded replica shirt and shouting at a referee from Row Q.Includes humour, theology, football nostalgia, British cultural commentary and the usual slightly dangerous mixture of seriousness and silliness.#Arsenal #PremierLeague #Football #Soccer #ArsenalFC #MenAndEmotion #MarkAndPete #ChristianPodcast #FootballCulture #BritishPodcast #CurrentAffairs #Sport #FaithAndCulture #PremierLeagueChampions
Twenty-two years of "nearly" and "not quite" have officially been erased. The Premier League trophy is back in North London, carried there by the sheer, unyielding will of Mikel Arteta's meticulously constructed football machine.In this episode, we break down Arsenal's historic 2026 title-winning season—a campaign defined not by flashy showmanship, but by a cold, brilliant, and utterly suffocating pragmatism. We dive deep into the analytics and moments that shaped this historic run, including:How David Raya and the powerhouse duo of Gabriel and William Saliba conceded a miserly 26 goals all season.The tactical genius behind Arsenal's record-breaking 28 goals from set-pieces, including 18 devastating goals from corners.The evolution of Declan Rice into an unstoppable complete midfielder, Bukayo Saka's talismanic brilliance, and how new faces like Viktor Gyökeres and Martín Zubimendi provided the perfect final pieces to the puzzle.From the dark days of 2019 to the red-and-white euphoria sweeping from the Emirates to Islington, this is the definitive story of how Arteta silenced the doubters and built a champion in his own obsessive image.

In this Football For Kids Classic episode, Darren Rees looks back on one of the wildest Premier League seasons ever, full of champions, shocks, relegation drama, record breakers and emotional goodbyes. Arsenal are Premier League champions again after 22 long years! We look at how Mikel Arteta's side finally brought the title back to North London, with David Raya winning the Golden Glove, Viktor Gyökeres scoring important goals, and Arsenal turning corners into their secret football superpower. But while Arsenal celebrated, other clubs suffered heartbreak. West Ham United were relegated despite beating Leeds United on the final day, Burnley dropped straight back down, and Wolves finished bottom after a miserable season. Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, survived by the skin of their teeth after a nerve-shredding final-day win over Everton. We also explore the players who made Premier League history: Erling Haaland winning another Golden Boot, Bruno Fernandes breaking the single-season assist record, and Fulham vs Manchester City producing a bonkers nine-goal thriller at Craven Cottage. And then come the goodbyes. Pep Guardiola leaves Manchester City after 10 incredible years. Bernardo Silva says farewell. Mohamed Salah waves goodbye to Liverpool after becoming one of Anfield's greatest ever heroes.

This week Jonathan is in celebratory mode—and no, it's not only because it's the festival of Shavuot, but because his beloved Arsenal finally won the Premier League, sparking a spontaneous tribal gathering of ‘marauding revellers' in North London. Meanwhile, Yonit and Jonathan unpack the volatile situation with Iran, and ask where President Trump's vague threats of a renewed strike are heading. Then, it's wall-to-wall condemnation for National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, whose grotesque 56-second video taunting Gaza flotilla detainees was a nightmare for Israel's defenders especially. And Jonathan describes his visit to the Nova exhibition in London, which offers a powerful, heart-rending glimpse of the human faces of the October 7th massacre and the shocking refusal of much of the world to look directly at what happened on that day.

Arsenal Football Club are Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years. A generation of fans who weren't born the last time this happened are now old enough to drink, vote, and cry in the streets of North London. And that's exactly what tens of thousands of them did on the night of May 19th, 2026.Marvin was one of them.In this episode, Marvin breaks down everything, the night itself, what he saw at Emirates Stadium, why this title hits different to any trophy, and what it actually took to get here. From Arteta's first press conference ("commitment is essential, there's no way you're going to survive here without giving 100%") to three consecutive runner-up finishes that would have broken a lesser squad, to the nine-point lead that nearly evaporated in eleven days, this is the full story.He also gets into: the squad rebuild needed this summer, why Zubimendi might be a problem next year, why Saliba and Gabriel need to stay for at least three more years, the Trent Alexander-Arnold question, what David Raya's golden glove means, why the Arsenal fanbase is unlike anything else in London, and why Kroenke, once booed by every fan in the ground, might be the hidden asset nobody's talking about.Plus: Marvin accidentally ended up on Australian breakfast TV celebrating in the streets. Nobody has the clip. Yet.If you've been waiting 22 years for this, this episode is for you.Acast: https://shows.acast.com/discover-with-marvyn-harrisonApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-marvyn-harrison-podcast/id1531924169Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0vgJd0NT9uEUYYON5k2RDfYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DiscoverWithMarvynInstagram (main): https://www.instagram.com/discoverwithmarvynInstagram (Dope Black Dads): https://www.instagram.com/dopeblackdadsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@marvyn_harrisonX: @Marvyn_HarrisonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marvynharrisonSubstack: https://marvynharrison.substack.comWebsite: https://marvynharrison.co.ukWelcome to The Marvyn Harrison Podcast — a story-driven conversation exploring identity, fatherhood, masculinity, relationships, culture, politics, sport, and modern life.In each episode, Marvyn Harrison sits down with leading thinkers, creatives, athletes, policymakers, and cultural voices to unpack the defining moments that shaped them.

Part 2 of this Blood Ties special with Geoffrey and Molly Wansell. Confronting one of Britain's most chilling killers: Dennis Nilsen. Calm, calculated, and hiding in plain sight, he murdered at least twelve young men between 1978 and 1983. Luring victims back to his North London flats, he strangled them, then carried out grotesque rituals, keeping bodies for days, even weeks, before dismembering and disposing of them. It is a story that still shocks.Dubbed the Muswell Hill Murderer, Nilsen was finally caught and convicted at the Old Bailey, sentenced to life, later a whole life term. But the question remains: how did he get away with it for so long?Geoffrey and Molly Wansell dig into the detail, the failures, and the psychology behind the headlines, asking what made Nilsen who he was, and why nobody stopped him sooner.CREDITS: Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly WansellProducer: Peter Shevlin https://pod60.com/Artwork: George LeighMusic: Dan WansellCONTACT: Twitter: @BloodTies_PodInstagram:@bloodtiespodcastEmail: bloodties.podcast@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcastSupport: patreon.com/bloodtiespodcastPlease complete our survey if you have time: http://bit.ly/bloodtiespodcast-survey Hosted on Acast.

Arsenal beat West Ham 1-0 at the London Stadium on Sunday to go within potentially 90 minutes of their first Premier League title in over 20 years, but that only tells half the story. West Ham's disallowed 95th minute goal from Callum Wilson has been described as the 'biggest call in VAR history' as it was ruled out for a foul on David Raya. The decision has implications at the bottom of the league too, as it strengthens Spurs' hopes of survival before they take on already-safe Leeds in North London tonight.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Sports & Entertainment Financial Planner and regular contributor Adam Osper along with returning guest Kieran Maguire who is a British academic, author, and broadcaster. Kieran specialises in the finances of association football and wrote the book The Price of Football and also is a co-host of the podcast alongside comedian Kevin Day. We discuss the importance of survival for Tottenham Hotspur on the back of a week which has seen the Club record back-to-back wins for the first time since the opening fortnight of the Premier League season. We reflect on just how much Daniel Levy's legacy hangs over the Club and whether The Lewis Family's decision to remove him without a contingency plan was one of the biggest mistakes of the season, despite the growing fan un-rest towards him personally. We debate the true cost of relegation for Spurs this season and how and why it could ultimately effect them for years to come. Pre-planning is also raised on what that looks like now, on the back of the news that Tottenham are ready to offer Luka Vuskovic a bumper new contract. Spurs director of football Johan Lange has reportedly travelled over to Hamburg recently to speak with Vuskovic about his future in North London. Spurs are also reportedly interested in goalkeepers James Trafford and Bart Verbruggen, with Guglielmo Vicario expected to join Inter.

Blood Ties with Geoffrey and Molly Wansell confronts one of Britain's most chilling killers: Dennis Nilsen. Calm, calculated, and hiding in plain sight, he murdered at least twelve young men between 1978 and 1983. Luring victims back to his North London flats, he strangled them, then carried out grotesque rituals, keeping bodies for days, even weeks, before dismembering and disposing of them. It is a story that still shocks.Dubbed the Muswell Hill Murderer, Nilsen was finally caught and convicted at the Old Bailey, sentenced to life, later a whole life term. But the question remains: how did he get away with it for so long?Geoffrey and Molly Wansell dig into the detail, the failures, and the psychology behind the headlines, asking what made Nilsen who he was, and why nobody stopped him sooner.CREDITS: Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly WansellProducer: Peter Shevlin https://pod60.com/Artwork: George LeighMusic: Dan WansellCONTACT: Twitter: @BloodTies_PodInstagram:@bloodtiespodcastEmail: bloodties.podcast@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcastSupport: patreon.com/bloodtiespodcastPlease complete our survey if you have time: http://bit.ly/bloodtiespodcast-survey Hosted on Acast.

Billy Saas and Rob Hawkes speak with Sheridan Kates, ecological economist, activist and, at present, Green Party candidate for Islington Council in North London in the May 2026 local election. In her academic and political work, Sheridan rejects both the economics and the language of austerity, and instead prioritises democratic, inclusive, and participatory institution building. Sheridan's activism extends into a commitment to public economics education via her work with Modern Money Lab UK, which held a series of public workshops in London and then a 2-day anti-austerity conference in Bristol in 2025. As a signatory to the Greens Organise ‘Pledge to Oppose Austerity in Local Government', Sheridan both welcomes the gathering momentum behind campaigns for a UK wealth tax and argues that they do not go far enough. Amidst a new wave of excitement surrounding green politics in the UK, especially since Zack Polanski's election as Green Party Leader in September 2025, Sheridan looks to a future where our economies are redesigned democratically to put people and the planet before profit.Visit our Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/MoLsuperstructureMusic by Nahneen Kula: www.nahneenkula.com

93% of the population. Almost entirely locked out of an industry that says it wants the best talent.Laurie Robathan grew up on the wrong side of that statistic. He was raised in inner-city Bristol, went to a state school, and grew up in a single-parent family. He found his way into finance through one thin thread of chance, and he's never forgotten how easily it could have gone the other way.At some point, that thread started to feel less like luck and more like a problem. Because what about everyone who never gets that thread at all?So Laurie walked away from a successful career in finance and built Fairfield in its place. It's a charity on paper, but really it's a business proposition designed to fix what he calls an inefficiently functioning labor market. Because when 80% of senior finance leaders come from just 7% of the population, that's not meritocracy. That's a pipeline problem.And he's not solving it from a boardroom. He's on trains, in school assemblies, at North London career fairs at 8pm. Doing the work.In this episode, Stacy Havener sits down with Laurie for one of those conversations that stays with you long after it's over.Listen in to hear:Why finance doesn't have a talent problem, it has an access problem Why the best person for the job may never make it to the interview room How Fairfield prepares students to belong before they ever walk through the doorWhat individuals and firms can do to helpMore About Laurie Robathan:Prior to his retirement from the finance industry, Laurie worked in the City for over 15 years, the last 10 years being at Kepler Partners LLP as Senior Partner. Before Kepler, he had roles at Scottish Widows Investment Partnership and Close Brothers Bank. As a member of Kepler's management committee, Laurie had input into all areas of the asset management business. He holds the Investment Management Certificate (IMC) and has an MSc in Finance & Investment from the University of Bristol. ---Running a fund is hard enough.Ops shouldn't be.Meet the team that makes it easier. | billiondollarbackstory.com/ultimus- - -Thinking about expanding your investor base beyond the US?

I'm 66, and I live in Rugby. I was born here, left when I was 18 to go to university in Portsmouth, and then did my postgraduate studies and a master's in education.I moved to London and worked in North London as a class teacher in the Primary phase. I became a head teacher, or a school principal, by the age of 32, and then I became one of the head teachers in Britain who were sent into failing schools. So I was the headteacher of several very large schools, and at 56, I retired. Like most people, I did not make caring for myself a priority. We were placed in some very scary situations, but as professionals, we have to deal with them and accept all the responsibilities. I slept badly, I worried about everything and everyone, and I ate erratically. I could go all day without eating, then eat everything.Yet each day arrive at 6.30 am with a smile on my face and get ready for a new day!! I had no control, and buffets were a nightmare. I can't have one biscuit!! I can stand and toast white bread until the cows come home.I can eat 5 doughnuts in 10 bites.I was 120 kilos with a belly and a round face, and I hated myself. I did all the diets and lost weight that always returned, plus more.Finally, I read Dr Fung's book, then Glenn Livingston's book on bingeing, then Gin Stephen's and then you, and it's changed my life.But I feel we underestimate the power of fake food and chemicals. With hindsight, walking away from recreational drugs, from smoking 40cigarettes a day, was easier than the pull of ultra-processed fake foods. I am back in Rugby because my Mum is 89 and housebound, and I can't, in good conscience, not be around. So I've slipped into being a caregiver, which wasn't the plan. I live with my partner, Juan, and we have been together for ten years. IF has helped me in so many other ways. I love the mental clarity, I feel positive and happy, every day feels like an education, and I'm learning about myself and finally putting my own needs first. If I want to be the best life partner or most helpful child to my Mum, then I need to take care.

Norman Lewis, who died in 2003 at the age of 95, was one of the twentieth century's most adventurous travellers and one of its most brilliant and compelling writers. He was also prolific, producing fifteen novels, twenty highly praised travel books and hundreds of influential newspaper articles.So why isn't he better-known today? The Slightly Foxed team put this question to Julian Evans, a distinguished writer and traveller himself, author most recently of Undefeatable: Odessa in Love and War, and of Semi Invisible Man, the definitive biography of Norman Lewis.Julian took his title directly from his subject, who described himself as a ‘semi-invisible man', a watcher from the sidelines who hated personal publicity. It was a lesson Norman learned from a hard childhood in which, as a clever boy growing up in the North London suburbs, he was severely bullied at school. His spiritualist parents, shattered by the deaths of his two older brothers, sent him to stay for some time with his Welsh grandfather and three disturbingly eccentric aunts, an interlude he described in his autobiography Jackdaw Cake.A sharp dresser with a taste for fast cars, motor bikes and guns (though he hated violence) and a man of great charm, Norman survived during the 1930s Depression by running his own successful camera business. But travelling and writing were his passions, and after wartime service as an army Intelligence officer which produced his masterpiece Naples '44, he wove the experiences of his worldwide travels into many other magical books such as A Dragon Apparent, Golden Earth and Voices of the Old Sea. He had an unerring instinct for a story and took risks to give a voice to overlooked communities. His Sunday Times article on the genocide of indigenous tribes in Brazil prompted the founding of Survival International, and The Honoured Society exposed the inner workings of the Mafia in Sicily.Courage, humour, humanity, a distinctive voice and a genius for storytelling – Lewis has them all. ‘One goes on reading page after page as if eating cherries,' wrote one New York Times reviewer. An essential author, we all agreed, for anyone who relishes good writing.The Slightly Foxed Editors' book recommendations were two novels by Joseph O'Connor, My Father's House and The Ghosts of Rome, and Justin Webb's childhood memoir The Gift of a Radio. And for an introduction to Norman Lewis, A Quiet Evening, a selection of his best articles introduced by John Hatt.
Poltergeist activity remains one of the most misunderstood and disputed phenomena in paranormal research. Unlike traditional hauntings, poltergeist cases — a term derived from the German words for "noisy ghost" — involve flying objects, spontaneous fires, unexplained sounds, and even physical assaults on the living. But are these terrifying events caused by restless spirits, or could the source of the chaos be something far closer to home? Researchers have documented dozens of cases suggesting that the answer may be both — and that certain locations seem to attract and amplify paranormal energy in ways that blur the line between haunting and human. From the infamous Tina Resch case in Columbus, Ohio, to the Enfield Poltergeist in North London, to a farm in Macomb, Illinois consumed by mysterious fires, the evidence points to something that science has yet to fully explain. These are the cases that have challenged investigators, baffled law enforcement, and left witnesses questioning everything they thought they knew about the world around them.FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: We'll look at several cases of reported poltergeist activity and try to determine if it's supernatural, human in nature, or possibly a little of both. (Poltergeists) *** Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, the Abominable Snowman… unexplained and unproven two-legged hairy beasts are seen all over the world. But there is another strange hairy ape like creature in North America that doesn't get the same amount of press – but is just as mysterious and frightening as the others. (The Mysterious Devil Monkeys of North America) *** Weirdo family member Danny Rendon tells the true story of… (The Horror on Harbor Lights Drive) *** For over a century, mysterious lights were seen bobbing up and down along the railroad tracks near Maco Station, a few miles west of Wilmington, North Carolina. To this day no one knows what they were. (The Maco Light) *** The tragic Tina Resch case started with the claims of a poltergeist haunting… and ended with the death of a child. (The Tina Resch Poltergeist Case) *** Weirdo family member Alana describes her childhood home where she heard strange footsteps and banging on doors when no one was home, and a crucifix which refused to stay upright. (The Fallen Crucifix) *** An Australian man tells of a fishing trip where he and a couple of friends come across what appears to be a Yowie or Bigfoot… but more humanlike. (The Hairy Man of Kowmung River) *** Haunting the historic Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia are eerie tales of anguished soldiers, an eternal watch dog, and one hideous vampire with jagged teeth and hanging skin. (The Ghosts of Richmond's Hollywood Cemetery) *** Were Jack the Ripper's victims killed to cover up a Royal scandal?

In Episode 472 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Sebastian Mallaby about Demis Hassabis, the co-founder of DeepMind and the man widely regarded as the most consequential figure in the development of artificial general intelligence, and what his story reveals about the science, the competition, and the existential stakes of the AI transition now underway. The first hour traces Hassabis's early life as a chess prodigy in North London, his studies in computer science at Cambridge and neuroscience at University College London, and the founding of DeepMind in 2010 alongside Shane Legg and Mustafa Suleyman. Mallaby and Kofinas explore the philosophical and scientific foundations of Hassabis' approach — including the decisive shift from symbolic, rule-based AI development to the inductive, data-driven logic of deep learning — as well as the competitive dynamics that have shaped the industry: Google's acquisition of DeepMind in 2014, Hassabis's early skepticism of language models and the transformer architecture, and the moment ChatGPT's release shattered what hopes remained of a "singleton" scenario in which a single, safety-minded lab could develop AGI on behalf of all humanity. The second hour picks up with the launch of ChatGPT 3.5 in November 2022 and what it revealed about the state of the AI race — including Mallaby's assessment of Sam Altman and the character of the individuals now driving this technology forward. They examine whether personality and values matter when competitive and commercial pressures are this overwhelming, and revisit a conversation Mallaby had with Geoffrey Hinton in which the so-called "godfather of AI" offered his honest assessment of humanity's odds of surviving the AI transition. The episode closes with an exploration of why the safety and existential risk conversation has receded from public discourse — not because the concerns have been resolved, but because geopolitical and commercial imperatives have made it nearly impossible to slow down — and considers the range of perspectives on that risk, from Yann LeCun's dismissiveness of existential threats to the technical alignment work being pursued inside the major labs themselves.
