In January 2024, co-founder of Thornbridge Brewery, Simon Webster received an email from Garrett Oliver. He'd heard a rumour that Carlsberg Britvic, the now owners of Marston's Brewery in Burton-upon-Trent, were “laying the union to rest.” The Brooklyn brewmaster continued to ask Simon if he'd be interested in taking a set, in turn saving it from being permanently erased from British brewing history. Six months later, after Simon and Thornbridge's brewing director Rob Lovatt had visited Burton to assess the situation, a single Union set was delivered to their brewery in Bakewell, Derbyshire. In the months since, it has become a focal point for their brewery, and something that has stirred plenty of excitement in the process. This has no doubt been assisted by the fact it's been used to produce some exciting collaborations, including with the likes of The Kernel and Odell Brewing. They've even produced a Strong Dark Mild with Garrett himself, a beer that would go on to become award-winning. In October 2025, host Matthew Curtis was invited to spend two days at Thornbridge and document a collaboration on the union system with Theakston Brewery of Masham, North Yorkshire. As the brewers set about making a version of the Yorkshire brewery's famous Masham Ale, Matthew set about filming, interviewing and documenting as much as he possibly could. The idea was to get to the heart of why the arrival of the Burton union at Thornbridge felt so significant. In this documentary-style episode of the Pellicle Podcast, you'll hear from several people at Thornbridge, including Simon Webster, Rob Lovatt, brewing manager Dominic Driscoll, and several others, plus Theakston's head brewer, Mark Slater. With plenty of analysis throughout, plus an original soundtrack composed by the host himself, this is the story of how Thornbridge saved the Burton Union.

In this special episode, recorded live at the 2025 Genomics England Research Summit, host Adam Clatworthy is joined by parents, clinicians and researchers to explore the long, uncertain and often emotional journey to a genetic diagnosis. Together, they go behind the science to share what it means to live with uncertainty, how results like variants of uncertain significance (VUS) are experienced by families, and why communication and support matter just as much as genomic testing and research. The panel discuss the challenges families face when a diagnosis remains out of reach, the role of research in refining and revisiting results over time, and how collaboration between researchers, clinicians and participants could help shorten diagnostic journeys in the future. Joining Adam Clatworthy, Vice-Chair for the Participant Panel, on this episode are: Emma Baple – Clinical geneticist and Medical Director, South West Genomic Laboratory Hub  Jamie Ellingford – Lead genomic data scientist, Genomics England  Jo Wright – Member of the Participant Panel and Parent Representative for SWAN UK  Lisa Beaton - Member of the Participant Panel and Parent Representative for SWAN UK  Linked below are the episodes mentioned in the episode:  What is the diagnostic odyssey?  What is a Variant of Uncertain Significance?  Visit the Genomics England Research Summit website, to get your ticket to this years event. You can download the transcript, or read it below. Sharon: Hello, and welcome to Behind the Genes. My name is Sharon Jones and today we're bringing you a special episode recorded live from our Research Summit held in June this year. The episode features a panel conversation hosted by Adam Clatworthy, Vice-Chair of the Participant Panel. Our guests explore navigating the diagnostic odyssey, the often-complex journey to reaching a genetic diagnosis. If you'd like to know more about what the diagnostic odyssey is, check our bitesize explainer episode, ‘What is the Diagnostic Odyssey?' linked in the episode description. In today's episode you may hear our guests refer to ‘VUS' which stands for a variant of uncertain significance. This is when a genetic variant is identified, but its precise impact is not yet known. You can learn more about these in another one of our explainer episodes, “What is a Variant of Uncertain Significance?” And now over to Adam. -- Adam: Welcome, everyone, thanks for joining this session. I'm always really humbled by the lived experiences and the journeys behind the stories that we talk about at these conferences, so I'm really delighted to be hosting this panel session. It's taking us behind the science, it's really focusing on the people behind the data and the lived experiences of all the individuals and the families who are really navigating this system, trying to find answers and really aiming to get a diagnosis – that has to be the end goal. We know it's not the silver bullet, but it has to be the goal so that everyone can get that diagnosis and get that clarity and what this means for their medical care moving forwards.    So, today we're really going to aim to demystify what this diagnostic odyssey is, challenging the way researchers and clinicians often discuss long diagnostic journeys, and we'll really talk about the vital importance of research in improving diagnoses, discussing the challenges that limit the impact of emerging research for families on this odyssey and the opportunities for progress. So, we've got an amazing panel here. Rather than me trying to introduce you, I think it's great if you could just introduce yourselves, and Lisa, I'll start with you. Lisa: Hi, I'm Lisa Beaton and I am the parent of a child with an unknown, thought to be neuromuscular, disease. I joined the patient Participant Panel 2 years ago now and I'm also a Parent Representative for SWAN UK, which stands of Syndromes Without A Name. I have 4 children who have all come with unique and wonderful bits and pieces, but it's our daughter who's the most complicated. Adam:  Thank you. Over to you, Jo. Jo:  Hi, I'm Jo Wright, I am the parent of a child with an undiagnosed genetic condition.  So I've got an 11-year-old daughter. 100,000 Genomes gave us a VUS, which we're still trying to find the research for and sort of what I'll talk about in a bit.  And I've also got a younger daughter. I joined the Participant Panel just back in December. I'm also a Parent Rep for SWAN UK, so Lisa and I have known each other for quite a while through that. Adam:  Thank you, Jo.  And, Jamie, you're going to be covering both the research and the clinician side and you kind of wear 2 hats, so, yeah, over to you. Jamie:  Hi, everyone, so I'm Jamie Ellingford and, as Adam alluded to, I'm fortunate and I get to wear 2 hats. So, one of those hats is that I'm Lead Genomic Data Scientist for Rare Disease at Genomics England and so work as part of a really talented team of scientists and engineers to help develop our bioinformatic pipelines, so computational processes. I work as part of a team of scientists and software engineers to develop the computation pipelines that we apply at Genomics England as part of the National Health Service, so the Genomic Medicine Service that families get referred to and recruited to, and we try to develop and improve those. So that's one of my hats. And the second of those is I am a researcher, I'm an academic at the University of Manchester, and there I work really closely with some of the clinical teams in the North West to try and understand a little bit more about the functional impact of genomic variants on kind of how things happen in a cell. So, we can explore a little bit more about that but essentially, it's to provide a little bit more colour as to the impact that that genomic variant is having. Adam: Great, thank you, Jamie. Over to you, Emma. Emma: My name's Emma Baple, I'm an academic clinical geneticist in Exeter but I'm also the Medical Director of the South West genomic laboratory hub, so that's the Exeter and Bristol Genomics Laboratory. And I wear several other hats, including helping NHS England as the National Specialty Advisor for Genomics. Adam: Thank you all for being here. I think it's really important before we get into the questions just to ground ourselves in like those lived experiences that yourself and Jo and going through. So, Lisa, I'm going to start with you. The term ‘diagnostic odyssey' gets bandied around a lot, we hear about it so many times, but how does that reflect your experience that you've been through and what would you like researchers and clinicians to understand about this journey that you're on, essentially? Lisa: So I think ours is less an odyssey and more of a roller-coaster, and I say that because we sort of first started on a genetic journey, as it were, when my daughter was 9 weeks of age and she's now 16½ – the half's very important – and we still have no answers. And we've sort of come a bit backwards to this because when she was 6 months old Great Ormond Street Hospital felt very strongly that they knew exactly what was wrong with her and it was just a case of kind of confirmation by genetics. And then they sent off for a lot of different myasthenia panel genes, all of which came back negative, and so having been told, “Yes, it's definitely a myasthenia, we just need to know which one it is,” at 4 years of age that was removed and it was all of a sudden like, “Yeah, thanks, sorry.” And that was really hard actually because we felt we'd had somewhere to hang our hat and a cohort of people with very similar issues with their children, and then all of a sudden we were told, “No, no, that's not where you belong” and that was a really isolating experience. I can remember sort of saying to the neuromuscular team, “Well is it still neuromuscular in that case?” and there was a lot of shrugging of shoulders, and it just…  We felt like not only had we only just got on board the life raft, then we'd been chucked out, and we didn't even have a floaty. And in many ways I think I have made peace with the fact that we don't have a genetic diagnosis for our daughter but it doesn't get easier in that she has her own questions and my older children – one getting married in August who's already sort of said to me, you know, “Does this have implications for when we have children?”  And those are all questions I can't answer so that's really hard. Adam:  Thank you, Lisa. Yourself, Jo, how would you describe the odyssey that you're currently experiencing? Jo: So my daughter was about one when I started really noticing that she was having regressions. They were kind of there beforehand but, I really noticed them when she was one, and that's when I went to the GP and then got referred to the paediatrician. So initially we had genetic tests for things like Rett syndrome and Angelman syndrome, which they were all negative, and then we got referred on to the tertiary hospital and then went into 100,000 Genomes. So we enrolled in 100,000 Genomes at the beginning of 2017, and we got our results in April of 2020, so obviously that was quite a fraught time. Getting our results was probably not as you would want to do it because it was kind of over the phone and then a random letter. So, what I was told in that letter was that a variant of uncertain significance had been identified and they wanted to do further research to see if it might be more significant. So we were to be enrolled into another research project called Splicing and Disease, which wasn't active at the time because everything had been put on hold for COVID, but eventually we went into that. So, I didn't know what the gene was at that point, when I eventually got the form for going to get her bloods done…  So that went off and then that came back and the geneticist said, “That gives us some indication that it is significant.” So, since that point it's been trying to find more information and research to be able to make it a diagnosis. There have been 2 sort of key things that have happened towards that but we're still not there. So one of the things is that a research paper came out earlier this year so that's kind of a little bit more evidence, it's not going to give us a diagnosis but it kind of, you know, sits there. And the other thing is that my geneticist said, “Actually, yeah, it looks like it's an important change.”  That's as far as we've got. So we've still got work to do to make it a diagnosis or not.  Obviously if it is a diagnosis, it is still a one-of-a-kind diagnosis, so it doesn't give me a group to join or that kind of thing. But now I've got that research paper that I've read and read, and asked ChatGPT to verify that I've understood it right in some places, you know, with the faith that we put into ChatGPT (laughs), I've got a better understanding and I've got something now that I can look back on, the things that happened when my daughter was one, 2, 3, 4 and her development was all over the place and people thought that I was slightly crazy for the things I was saying, that “Actually, no, I can see what's happening.” So, it's like the picture's starting to come into focus but there's work to do. I haven't got a timeframe on that, I don't know when it's going to come together. And I always say that I'm a prolific stalker of the postman; ever since our first genetic tests you're just constantly waiting for the letters to drop through the door. So a diagnostic odyssey to me is just waiting for random events. Adam: I think what you've both kind of really clearly elaborated on is how you're the ones that are having to navigate this journey, you're the ones that are trying to piece this puzzle together, and the amount of time you're investing, all whilst navigating and looking after your child and trying to cope with the daily lived experience as well. And something you've both touched on that I'd love to draw out more is about how exactly was the information shared with you about the lack of diagnosis or the VUS or what's going on, because in our case you get this bit of paper through the post that has all these numbers and it's written in clinical speak and we had no conversation with the geneticist or the doctors. You see this bit of paper and you're reading it, scared for what the future will hold for your child, but I'd love to know like how were you communicated whilst all this is going on, how did you actually find out the next steps or any kind of future guidance. Lisa: So I think in our case we kept sort of going onto neuromuscular appointments, and I think for probably the first 5 years of my daughter's life I kind of had this very naïve thought that every time we turned up to an appointment it would be ‘the one' and then…   I think it would've been really helpful actually in those initial stages if they had said to us, “Actually, we don't know when this is going to happen, if it's even going to happen, you need to kind of prepare yourself for that.” It sounds fairly obvious to say but you don't know what you don't know. And in some ways we were getting genetic test results back for some really quite horrible things and they would tell us, “Oh it's good news, this mitochondrial disorder hasn't come up,” and so part of you is like, “Yay!” but then another part of you is thinking, “Well if it's not that what is it?” And we've very much kind of danced around and still don't really have an answer to whether it's life-limiting. We know it's potentially life-threatening and we have certain protocols, but even that is tricky. We live in North Yorkshire, and our local hospital are amazing. Every time we go in, if it's anything gastro-related, they say to me, “What's the protocol from Great Ormond Street?” and I say, “We don't have one” (laughs) and that always causes some fun. We try to stay out of hospitals as much as we absolutely can and do what we can at home but, equally, there's a point where, you know, we have to be guided by where we're going with her, with the path, and lots of phone calls backwards and forwards, and then is it going to be a transfer down to Great Ormond Street to manage it. And actually the way I found out that nothing had been found from 100,000 Genomes was in a passing conversation when we had been transferred down to Great Ormond Street and we'd been an inpatient for about 6 weeks and the geneticist said to me, “So obviously with you not having a diagnosis from the 100,000 Genomes…” and I said, “Sorry?  Sorry, what was that?  You've had the information back?”  And she said, “Well, yes, did nobody write to you?” and I said, “No, and clearly by my shock and surprise.” And she was a bit taken aback by that, but it happened yet again 2 years later (laughs) when she said, “Well you know everything's been reanalysed” and I said, “No.”  (Laughs)  And, so that's very much, it still feels an awful lot like I'm doing the heavy lifting because we're under lots of different teams and even when they're working at the same hospital they don't talk to each other. And I do understand that they're specialists within their own right, but nobody is really looking at my daughter holistically, and there are things that kind of interrelate across.    And at one of the talks I attended this morning they were talking about the importance of quality of life, and I think that is something that has to be so much more focused on because it's hard enough living without a diagnosis, but when you're living with a bunch of symptoms that, I think the best way I can describe it is at the moment we've got the spokes of the umbrella but we don't have the wrapper, and we don't know where we're going with it. We can't answer her questions, we can't even necessarily know that we're using the most effective treatments and therapies for her, and she's frustrated by that now, being 16, in her own right, as well as we are. And I'm panicking about the navigation towards Adult Services as well because at the minute at least we have a clinical lead in our amazing local paediatrician but of course once we hit and move into that we won't even have him and that's a really scary place to be, I think. Adam: Jo, is there anything you wanted to add on that in terms of how you've been communicated to whilst all this is going on? Jo: Yeah, so I think part of what makes it difficult is if you're across different hospitals because they're not necessarily going to see the same information. So obviously it was a bit of a different time when I got our results, but I got our results on a virtual appointment with a neurologist in one hospital, in the tertiary hospital, and because he could see the screen because it was the same hospital as genetics, and he said, “Oh you've got this” and then the letter came through later. When I had my next appointment with the neurologist in our primary hospital, or secondary care, whatever it's called, in that hospital, he hadn't seen that, so I'm telling him the results, which isn't ideal, but it happens quite a lot. What I think is quite significant to me is the reaction to that VUS.  I have to give it, the doctors that look after my daughter are brilliant, and I'm not criticising them in any way but their reaction to a VUS is “I'm so grateful for the persistence to get to a diagnosis.” Neurologists are a bit more like “Oh it's a VUS so it might be significant, it might be nothing.” Actually, as a patient, as in a parent, you actually want to know is it significant or not, “Do I look at it or not?” And, I mean, like I said, there were no research papers to look at before anyway until a few months ago so I didn't have anything to look at, but I didn't want to look at it either because you don't want to send yourself off down a path. But I think that collective sort of idea that once someone gets a VUS we need a pathway for it, “What do we do with it, what expectation do we set the patients up with and what is the pathway for actually researching further?” because this is where we really need the research. Adam:  Thank you, Jo. So, Emma, over to you in terms of how best do you think clinicians can actually support patients at navigating this odyssey and what's the difference between an initial diagnosis and a final diagnosis and how do you then communicate that effectively to the patients and their family?   Emma: So I think a key thing for me, and it's come up just now again, is that you need to remember as a doctor that the things you say at critical times in a patient's or parent's journeys they will remember – they'll remember it word for word even though you won't – and thinking about how to do that in the most sensitive, empathetic, calm, not rushed way is absolutely key.   And there are some difficulties with that when you're in a very high-pressure environment but it is absolutely crucial, that when you are communicating information about test results, when you're talking about doing the test in the first place, you're consenting the family, you're explaining what you're trying to do and those conditions, you balance how much information you give people.    So, you were talking earlier about “So you haven't got this diagnosis, you haven't got that diagnosis,” I often think it's…  We're often testing for numerous different conditions at the same time, I couldn't even list them all to the parents of the children or the patient that I'm testing. It's key to try and provide enough information without overwhelming people with so much information and information on specific conditions you are just thinking about as a potential.  Sometimes very low down your list actually but you can test for them.    Because people go home and they use the internet and they look things up and they get very, very worried about things. So, for me it's trying to provide bite-sized amounts of information, give it the time it deserves, and support people through that journey, tell them honestly what you think the chance of finding a diagnosis is. If you think it's unlikely or you think you know, sharing that information with family is helpful.   Around uncertainty, I find that a particular challenge. So, I think we've moved from a time when we used to, in this country, declare every variant we identified with an uncertain significance. Now, if we remember that we've all got 5 million variants in our genome, we've all got hundreds and hundreds… thousands and thousands, in fact, of variants of uncertain significance in our genetic code. And actually, unless you think a variant of uncertain significance genuinely does have a probability of being the cause of a child's or a patient's condition, sharing that information can be quite harmful to people.    We did a really interesting survey once when we were writing the guidelines for reporting variants of uncertain significance a few years ago. We asked the laboratories about their view of variants of uncertain significance and we asked the clinicians, and the scientists said, “We report variants of uncertain significance because the clinicians want them” and the clinicians said, “If the labs put the variant of uncertain significance on the report it must be important.” And of course, if you're a parent, if the doctor's told you the variant is a variant of uncertain significance of course you think it's important.    So, we should only be sharing that information, in my opinion, if it genuinely does have a high likelihood of being important and there are things that we can do. And taking people through that journey with you, with the degree of likelihood, the additional tests you need to do and explaining to them whether or not you think you will ever clarify that, is really, really key because it's very often that they become the diagnosis for the family.  Did I cover everything you think's important, both of you?  Lisa: I think the one thing I would say is that when you are patient- or parent-facing, the first time that you deliver that news to the parent… you may have delivered that piece of news multiple times and none of us sit there expecting you to kind of be overcome with emotion or anything like that but, in the same way that perhaps you would've had some nerves when, particularly if it was a diagnosis of something that was unpleasant, you know, to hold onto that kind of humanity and humility. Because for those patients and parents hearing that news, that is the only time they're ever hearing that, and the impact of that, and also, they're going on about with their day, you don't know what else they're doing, what they're juggling.    We're not asking you all to be responsible for kind of, you know, parcelling us up and whatnot but the way information is imparted to us is literally that thing we are all hanging our hats on, and when we're in this kind of uncertainty, from my personal experience I'm uncomfortable, I like to be able to plan, I'm a planner, I'm a researcher, I like to sort of look it up to the nth degree and that, and sitting in a place without any of that is, it's quite a difficult place to be. And it's not necessarily good news for those parents when a test comes back negative, because if it's not that then what is it, and that also leaves you feeling floundering and very isolated at times.  Adam: Yeah, and you touched upon the danger of like giving too much information or pushing families down a particular route, and then you have to pull them out of it when it's not that.   You talked about the experience you had, you felt like you'd found your home and then it's like, “Well, no, no, sorry, actually we don't think it's that.” And you've invested all of your time and your emotion into being part of that group and then you're kind of taken away again. So it's to the point where you have to be really sure before you then communicate to the families, and obviously in the meantime the families are like, “We just need to know something, we need to know,” and it's that real fine line, isn't it?    But, Jamie, over to you. Just thinking about the evolving nature of genomic diagnosis, what role does research play in refining or confirming a diagnosis over time?  Jamie: So it's really, really difficult actually to be able to kind of pinpoint one or 2 things that we could do as a community of researchers to help that journey, but perhaps I could reflect on a couple of things that I've seen happen over time which we think will improve things. And one of that's going back to the discussion that we've just had about how we classify genetic variants. And so, behind that kind of variant of uncertain significance there is a huge amount of effort and emotion from a scientist's side as well because I think many of the scientists, if not all, realise what impact that's going to have on the families.   And what we've tried to do as a community is to make sure that we are reproducible, and if you were to have your data analysed in the North West of England versus the South West that actually you'd come out with the same answer. And in order to do that we need guidance, we need recommendations, we need things that assist the scientists to actually classify those variants.  And so, what we have at the moment is a 5 point scale which ranges from benign to likely benign, variant of uncertain significance, unlikely pathogenic variant and pathogenic variant. It's objective as to how we classify a variant into one of those groups and so it's not just a gut feeling from a scientist, it's kind of recordable measurable evidence that they can provide to assist that classification.   So in many instances what that does is provide some uncertainty, as we've just heard, because it falls into that zone of variant of uncertain significance but what that also does is provide a framework in which we can generate more evidence to be able to classify it in one direction or another to become likely pathogenic or to become likely benign. And as a research community we're equipped with that understanding –– and not always with the tools but that's a developing area – to be able to do more about it.   What that doesn't mean is that if we generate that evidence that it can translate back into the clinic, and actually that's perhaps an area that we should discuss more. But kind of just generating that evidence isn't always enough and being able to have those routes to be able to translate back that into the hands of the clinicians, the clinical scientists, etc, is another challenge. Adam:  And how do you think we can drive progress in research to deliver these answers faster, to really try and shorten those diagnostic journeys, like what are the recommendations that you would say there? Jamie:  So being able to use the Genomics England data that's in the National Genomic Reference Library, as well as kind of other resources, has really transformed what we can do as researchers because it enables teams across the UK, across the world to work with data that otherwise they wouldn't be able to work with.   Behind that there's an infrastructure where if researchers find something which they think is of interest that can be reported back, it can be curated and analysed by teams at Genomics England and, where appropriate, kind of transferred to the clinical teams that have referred that family. And so having that pathway is great but there's still more that we can do about this. You know, it's reliant on things going through a very kind of fixed system and making sure that clinicians don't lose contact with families – you know, people move, they move locations, etc. And so, I think a lot of it is logistical and making sure that the right information can get to the right people, but it all falls under this kind of umbrella of being able to translate those research findings, where appropriate, into clinical reporting.   Adam:  Thank you. And, Emma, is there anything you would add in terms of like any key challenges that you think need to be overcome just to try and shorten the journeys as much as possible and find the answers to get a diagnosis?  Emma: I think trying to bridge that gap between some of the new technologies and new approaches that we've got that we can access in a research context and bringing those into diagnostics is a key area to try to reduce that diagnostic odyssey, so I really want to see the NHS continuing to support those sorts of initiatives.   We're very lucky, as Jamie said, the National Genomic Research Library has been fundamental for being able to reduce the diagnostic odyssey for large numbers of patients, not just in this country but around the world, and so trying to kind of look at how we might add additional data into the NGRL, use other research opportunities that we have in a more synergistic way with diagnostics I think is probably key to being able to do that.    We are very lucky in this country with the infrastructure that we've got and the fact that everything is so joined up. We're able to provide different opportunities in genomics for patients with rare conditions that aren't so available elsewhere in the world.  Adam: Great, thank you. I think we're it for time, so thank you very much to the panel. And I'd just say that if you do have any further questions for ourselves as participants then we're only too happy to pick those up. Thank you for lasting with us ‘til the end of the day and hope to see you soon.  -- Sharon: A huge thank you to our panel, Adam Clatworthy, Emma Baple, Jo Wright, Lisa Beaton and Jamie Ellingford, for sharing their insights and experiences.

This week on Paranormal Activity, Producer Dom returns with two bone-chilling listener stories that reveal how the most ordinary places in a quiet playground and a roadside phone box can turn deeply, disturbingly strange.First, Molly recounts a terrifying shortcut through a residential playground in Birmingham, where the world seemed to bend around her: sound vanished, space warped, and unseen children laughed on a loop as if caught in some paranormal echo.What was meant to be a five-minute walk turned into a surreal nightmare she'll never forget.Then, Tom shares his experience in a lonely North Yorkshire phone box, where the phone wasn't just working... it was waiting.With no power, no people for miles, and a rotary dial that spun itself, Tom found himself caught in a ghostly ritual that local legends have whispered about for years.Tune in as Dom reacts to these unnerving encounters and tries to make sense of the moments where reality falters and something else slips through.A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

This week is an interesting and inspiring story from Andrew Keiley who runs the Hardrow Limousin herd alongside his sheep enterprise in Hawes, North Yorkshire. From being born in Manchester suburbs, and the family farm being sold before he had chance to get started, to working his way through the industry, living in a caravan before eventually getting his own farm. We discuss his pedigree interests and Andrew not only tells us of his steps and pitfalls on the way as well as some inspirational advice to youngsters to never let go of your dream.

It is our pleasure and privilege to have one of the greatest cricketers of all time on the first proper episode for 2026, and 'proper' is the correct term, as our guest is Lord Ian Botham of Ravensworth in the County of North Yorkshire, OBE. But he happily answers to 'Beefy.' A passionate winemaker, we discover more about his range of Sir Ian Botham Wines and how hands-on he is in every facet of the business. Naturally, cricket did come up and Beefy shared some strong opinions about the game and the modern players, as well as a scary encounter with our own Mervyn Gregory Hughes in the NT. That isn't the most frightening revelation, though, as his Lordship details his love affair with the Collingwood Football Club. It's a pub grub Food Poll to kick off 2026.

As 2025 comes to a close, I'm looking back on a remarkable year in travel where I explored some new places in some old countries. In this Year of Travel in Review 2025, I'm sharing a high-level overview of where I traveled during the year — from England's countryside and dramatic coastlines to iconic regions of France, with the Italian Dolomites, where I led my very first Wander Your Way Adventures small group tour, woven in between. This episode isn't a deep dive into each destination (those are coming!), but rather a big-picture look at how this intensive travel season shaped my perspective, my work and what's ahead. During a late-summer and fall travel window, I explored several of England's most beloved (and quietly spectacular) regions, including Oxfordshire, the Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales and the coastal town of Whitby in North Yorkshire. Each place offered a different pace and personality — and plenty of inspiration for future episodes. France was another highlight of 2025, with time spent in Normandy, the Loire Valley, and my favorite city, Paris — reinforcing why France remains such a cornerstone of European travel.And reminding me that I still have so much more of this fabulous country to explore). Finally, one of the most meaningful parts of this Year of Travel in Review 2025 centers on Italy — specifically the Dolomites — where I led and hosted the inaugural Wander Your Way Adventures small group tour. What an experience!Leading this first small group adventure was a defining moment for me and for my business — truly unforgettable. So tune in as I reflect on my Year of Travel in Review 2025, a season that left a lasting mark.Want to chat more about travel to Europe?Email me at Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:0:45: Intro3:25: Oxfordshire England6:02: Peak District England7:40: Yorkshire Dales England8:51: East to Whitby England12:30: Back to the Peak District 14:18: Normandy France19:03: Loire Valley France21:41: Paris22:32: First Wander Your Way Adventures Small Group Tour31:31: Wander Your Way Adventures 2026 Tours35:49: Wrapping it upImportant links: Peak DistrictYorkshire Dales Normandy FranceLoire Valley FranceWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your WayWander Your Way Resources ★ Support this podcast ★

Ambika Wauters is back to share her insights on her latest work, the Life Energy Medicine Bible. We dive into the base chakra, exploring how it affects grounding, stability, and even ancestral trauma. She reflects on her own journey, the mentors who shaped her work, and the importance of trusting your own intuition. Throughout the conversation, she shares thoughtful guidance on listening to yourself and finding what truly works for your personal healing journey. Episode Highlights: 06:07 - Ambika's Journey with the Life Energy Medicine Bible 13:23 - Emotional Triggers That Activate Root Chakra Imbalances 15:18 - The Danger of Skipping Energetic Foundations 19:11 - Connection between grounding in the root chakra and spiritual development 27:59 - Flower Essences for Root Chakra 29:51 - Why letting your child decide is more powerful than you think 31:46 - The importance of making informed choices 37:53 - Personal story about the importance of listening to one's inner voice and intuition 40:49 - Navigating AI and Reality 42:44 - Ambika's recorded classes available for purchase 57:16 - Ambika's Free Meditation About my Guests: Ambika's path as a healer grew from decades of study, exploration, and hands-on clinical practice across multiple continents. Trained first as an artist at the Royal College of Art in London, she later found her way naturally into the healing arts, studying bioenergetic psychotherapy in Spain, dance with Gabrielle Roth, and Shintaido Martial Arts in San Francisco. Her love for classical homeopathy led her to the UK, where she completed her studies at The School of Homeopathic Medicine in North Yorkshire and became a member of both the UK and US Society of Homeopaths. In 1997, she returned to the United States to establish The Institute of Life Energy Medicine, offering classes on homeopathy, soul psychology, and creative healing—courses she taught for 15 years and now makes available online. Her journey has taken her through Europe, Africa, and India, deepening both her spiritual understanding and her healing work. She studied archetypes at the Carl Jung Institute in Switzerland, earned a master's degree in fine arts, and spent many years living in Spain and the UK. Among her most meaningful experiences were her visits to India to learn from her teacher, Sadguru HLW Poonja, who opened her heart to her higher purpose, encouraged her writing, and gave her the name Ambika, meaning “Universal Mother.” Today, she continues to nurture her inner peace through meditation and lives a joyful, grounded life in Tucson, Arizona.

The still luminous sky above the sheer rock cliffs was turning an even deeper shade of blue, as we stepped down onto the wet sand of the beach at Boggle Hole. For a moment we just had to stand. Take it all in. Wide stretches of undulating sand. Half submerged boulders like sleeping elephants. Towering rock faces so vertical and so angled that they catch and reflect every breaking wave, every calling bird, every clack of a dislodged stone, back into your ears, so you hear them for a second time. The tide's been receding for several hours. We turn right, and walk to find a good spot to record. We follow the band of newly exposed sand along the tidal zone, dodging pools of stranded water. See sea birds swooping, then landing, momentarily. Snatch up a morsel. Then they're up and flying again. Herring gulls circle high overhead. Black headed gulls pass like projectiles, screeching for the empty air in front of them to get out of the way. Their bold cries caught, and reflected, by the plummeting cliffs of sheer vertical rock. This we know, we hear, we see, we feel, is a rarified place. A landscape of exceptional quality. It doesn't matter how many hundreds of miles we have to go to find places like this, it's always worth it. Environments where extreme quiet and extreme spatialness coexist, together, for hours. Undisturbed. Uninterrupted. Unspoiled. We found a spot, then left the Lento box on a tripod to record the scene alone, in the gathering dark. * We made this recording, or more accurately we took this sound photograph of Boggle Hole beach one evening last August whilst staying at the Youth Hostel. It's one of the most spatial sound captures we've made this year. Listen with headphones in a quiet place, and let yourself settle into the passage of time, to let your ears adjust and get the full spatial effect.

Join us in this episode as we discuss the exciting finds from the Bedale hoard in North Yorkshire, England. In 2012 a group of amateur metal detectors discovered a hoard of late 9th century Viking silver in Bedale. The items found were ingots, necklaces, arm-bands, and a sword pommel. What makes this particular collection peculiar is that when the silver used to make the items was scientifically analysed it was discovered that it was from the Islamic world. Listen to the podcast to discover how this silver travelled so far and ended up in northern England.Dr. Jane Kershaw is Gad Rausing Associate Professor of Viking Age Archaeology at the University of Oxford.

He spent most of his working life as a corporate slave to the IT industry, before ‘seeing the light' and finally escaping from the dreary, soul-destroying confines of the corporatocracy over twenty years ago. Since then he has been a full-time professional, geopolitical researcher, analyst, public speaker and author, having written and had published eight books to date, including this one, as co-author with his very good friend and writing partner, Shannon Rowan. His first, The Falsification of History was, and continues to be, a great success and established his reputation as a writer of ‘real' history, as opposed to the usual lies we are fed by the corporate media in all its forms, on a daily basis. John has also extensively researched the Titanic myths and legends and has published two books on the topic… RMS Olympic (2013) and Titanic's Last Secret (2014) (a novel based on the factual RMS Olympic book), both of which propound the theory, backed-up with plenty of evidence, that it was not RMS Titanic that sank on that cold April night in 1912, but her identical twin sister, RMS Olympic—and outlines in great detail the reasons for the gross deception, and how the hoax was facilitated and subsequently covered-up. In May 2016, John published the largest book to date in his growing portfolio, Behind the Curtain; a huge two-volume, 600,000+ word exposé of the fraudulent world-wide monetary and banking systems that prevail today and the people who run them with an iron fist encased inside a velvet glove. This book outlines precisely how those who are able to create money from ‘thin air' are able to use that fraudulent ‘money' to control almost everything else in the world and how they have distorted history and science for centuries, to pursue their own sordid agenda and create a false reality for humanity. His next work was a new ‘take' on the JFK assassination, JFK—A Very British Coup, (2019) which ‘names and shames' the ‘British Crown' as prime movers in the plot. And the latest, published in February 2021, The Falsification of Science, is a sister volume to his first, The Falsification of History. This is a huge volume of work, edited by—and with significant contributions from Shannon, exposing all the ‘anti-science' tactics employed by the draconian ‘powers that shouldn't be' in their never-ending agenda for the total subjugation of the human race. *Podcast intro music used with permission is from the song “The Queens Jig” by the fantastic “Musicke & Mirth” from their album “Music for Two Lyra Viols”: http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Eight weeks after taking up her post as DEFRA Secretary of State, Emma Reynolds has faced her first barrage of questions from the cross-party group of MPs at the EFRA select committee. Over two hours the MPs quizzed her about farming profitability, environmental payments, fishing policy, water pollution, border controls and illegal meat.One of the UK's biggest meat producers, Cranswick has been refused retrospective planning permission for a site in Norfolk, housing 7000 sows. The buildings, which were put up four years ago, have attracted hundreds of complaints from local residents over their smell. Even though most of us have seen quite a bit of rain over the last few weeks, some parts still need plenty more to top up the deficit from last summer's drought. That lack of water meant this year's potato harvest, which has just finished, was particularly difficult. We visit a grower in North Yorkshire to catch up on the season and see how incorporating organic matter into soil, retains moisture.All week, we're talking about growing mushrooms. Truffle cultivation isn't usually associated with Scotland, but milder, wetter summers are providing new opportunities, according to one professor who's developing new methods of cultivating truffles.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Sheila Dillon and this year's head judge of the BBC Food and Farming Awards, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, hit the road to meet the finalists in the Best Food Producer category. From sourdough pioneers Aidan Monks and Catherine Connor at Lovingly Artisan in Kendal, and regenerative grower Calixta Killander at Flourish Produce in Cambridgeshire, to cheese champions Andy and Kathy Swinscoe at The Courtyard Dairy in North Yorkshire — they explore how these exceptional producers might hold clues to a more resilient food future. Inspired by Professor Tim Lang's recent report, Just in Case: narrowing the UK civil food resilience gap, the episode asks: could these small but significant businesses be part of the solution to Britain's food security crisis?Presented by Sheila Dillon Produced for BBC Audio in Bristol by Natalie Donovan

Featured : BRANDY SCHILLACE, The Dead Come to StayBrandy's back with a sequel! Jo Jones can't catch a break. She'd hoped that trading her city life for the cozy, peaceful hills of North Yorkshire to inherit a crumbling family estate would finally be her chance for a "fresh start" and a new future. Instead, she's been thrust further into the past than she ever imagined possible. The estate property is littered with traces of ancestors that Jo never knew existed, including the mysterious woman depicted in a half-destroyed painting -- and also including Jo's late uncle, who may hold the key to her cryptic family history. Add to this the gossipy town politics of Abington that Jo's forced to navigate as a neurodivergent transplanted American. And that's not even getting to the murder yet. When the prickly town detective James MacAdams discovers a body in the moors with coincidental ties to Jo Jones, they're forced to team up on the case. The clues will lead them into the wealthiest locales of Yorkshire, from sparkling glass hotels to luxury property sites to elite country clubs. But below the glittering surfaces, Jo and MacAdams discover darker schemes brewing. Local teens and international refugees are disappearing left and right, each case somehow linked to a shady architectural firm -- which happened to employ the dead man from the moors.What began as an unusual murder case plunges Jo and MacAdams into the underground world of rare artefacts and antique trading... and the murderer may not be finished yet…Episode was recorded live October 24, 2025.Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://peculiarbookclub.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/ixJJ2Y⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VIP Membership: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://payhip.com/PeculiarBookClub⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PeculiarBookClub/streams⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@peculiarbookclub.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/peculiarbooksclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thepeculiarbookclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Robin Hood's Bay on the North Yorkshire coast feels remote for England. It lies at the bottom of a very steep road that descends down from the road between Whitby and Scarborough. The sign at the top of the village warns sightseers interested in a look not even to try driving down. With virtually no traffic noise and the whole area under a quiet sky, we knew this was a good place for the Lento microphones. The lane (we walked, obviously) winds very steeply down, passes a few little shops, a pub, a grocery shop with a jar part filled with fizzy drink to catch the wasps, and ends in a ramp onto the beach. Perfect waves break. Perfect because every detail can be heard cleanly, and precisely. No road or plane noise to get in the way.  Robin Hood's Bay was not actually our final resting point. For this we needed to walk about a quarter of a mile over the sand to the Youth Hostel at Boggle Hole. Delightfully named. Perfectly located.  Access across the beach is only possible when the tide is out. You know you're close when you reach a rocky stream that flows down from the cliffs. The last stretch, harder work. The stream is not walking boots friendly, uneven stepping stones look fun but need a confidence to use.  The Youth Hostel is tranquil. It really has the most peaceful surroundings of anywhere we've ever stayed. Above the hostel is a wooded area rich with rustling trees. As night approached we followed a tiny footpath up in between the trees. They swayed and hushed in the onshore breeze flowing up from the beach. We found a tree with a good trunk and tied the Lento box on to capture the sound of the night. * This section of time is captured in the woods above the Youth Hostel. It's from 3am, early August. Weather conditions are warm and dry, with moderate winds gusting to strong. Dark bush crickets live amongst the trees. They can be heard all through the night. They can, if you feel like it, provide something nice to count, like sheep, to help you get to sleep.

Today's guest is probably the most international guest I've ever had. Welcome guitarist Timothy Reid to the show. Timothy comes to us from Japan via North Yorkshire, England. How did he end up in Japan? It's a really interesting story about obsessions. But that's not where we begin. We begin with Timothy getting into Northern Soul and the punk band that cemented his musical course. After going to school for music, he made the decision to move to Japan. But he prepped for years before leaving. That turned out to be a very good idea.  Timothy talks about the realities of living abroad, including the inability to practice using an amp. That led to his entry into a guitar contest just so he could play through a Marshall stack. Turns out, the judges loved his improvisational approach and he won. That led to a job as a demonstrator for several years until COVID went and ruined everything. But when one door closes, a window opens. That's when writing music for video games begins to happen. And all the while, he's writing and releasing solo albums. If you're a fan of Satriani, Vai, Lynch, Eric Johnson, and guys like that, you'll love Timothy's music. He's got some new stuff in the works, including a possible video game soundtrack release. Follow @timothyreidofficial on instagram or go to timothyreid.com for more information.

The tide was starting to come in, and the sun was setting over Saltburn-by-the-Sea in North Yorkshire. A woman sat on a bench on the promenade, waiting for her son to join her so they could walk home together. Quite often, the sea was dotted with surfers, but not that day. The woman pulled her jacket tightly to shield herself from the icy coastal winds as she stopped and waited…*** LISTENER CAUTION IS ADVISED *** This episode was researched and written by Eileen Macfarlane.Edited by Joel Porter at Dot Dot Dot Productions.Script editing, additional writing, illustrations and production direction by Rosanna FittonNarration, additional audio editing and mixing, and script editing by Benjamin Fitton.To get early ad-free access, including Season 1, sign up for They Walk Among PLUS, available from Patreon or Apple Podcasts.More information and episode references can be found on our website https://theywalkamonguspodcast.comMUSIC: Half Empty by Cody Martin Wild Beauty by Caleb Etheridge Mustache Love by Cast Of Characters Misery Loves Company by CJ0 Handmaids Escape by CJ OliverBeat The System by Cody Martin Final Moments by Cody Martin Illusion by Cody Martin Outer Rim by Cody Martin Playing Games by Cody Martin Snowdrift by Cody Martin Stone Table by Cody Martin The Fall by Cody Martin Tempest by Falls Count Backwards From 10 by Glasseyes A Silent Request by Lost Ghosts Bells Are Ringing by Moments Ephemeral Colors by Moments St Mary by Chelsea McGough And Stephen Keech Twilight Moon by Caleb Etheridge SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/TheyWalkAmongUsSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theywalkamongus.

In this episode of The Brick Session, Mark and Caroline dive into a packed weekend of racing news, starting with the Ironman World Championships in Nice. With the legendary Kona course giving way to the French Riviera this year, the event sparked considerable debate. Mark and Caroline unpack the brutal bike course that left its mark on the field, reflected in a notably high DNF rate. They question whether Nice was given a fair chance to prove itself as a long-term alternative to Kona, or if the tradition of Hawaii will always overshadow any new host.The conversation naturally turns to the race dynamics, where the Norwegians once again proved their dominance, sweeping the podium with a remarkable top-three finish. Mark and Caroline explore what makes their approach so consistently successful, and what this says about the future of long-distance triathlon.Closer to home, Caroline shares her personal experience at the British Gravel Championships held in Dalby Forest, North Yorkshire. In a race that attracted some of the UK's best off-road talent, she put in a gritty performance to take 8th place overall — a standout achievement at 46 years old. Together, they reflect on the growth of gravel racing in the UK, the technical demands of the Dalby course, and what draws so many athletes to the discipline.It's an episode that balances the global stage of triathlon with the personal stories of racing at home — packed with insight, opinion, and the usual dose of Brick Session honesty.

Jung Chang's Wild Swans, the epic family memoir that followed the lives of Jung, her mother and grandmother through China's 20th century, was banned in mainland China, but was a smash hit worldwide upon publication in 1991. Now Jung's sequel, Fly, Wild Swans, brings her family's story up to date. She joins Nuala McGovern.The Labour deputy leadership race could be an all-woman affair, with all current declarations coming from female MPs. Nuala gets the lowdown from Kitty Donaldson, chief political commentator for The i Paper.The All Party Parliamentary Group report on PCOS - or polycystic ovary syndrome - has found that women face prolonged delays in diagnosis, fragmented care, and limited access to treatments. The condition is also expected to undergo a name change later this year to more accurately reflect what it is. Nuala hears from Chair of the APPG, Labour MP Michelle Welsh and Caroline Andrews from PCOS charity Verity.Royal Artillery Gunner Jaysley Beck took her own life in 2021, after filing a complaint against Battery Sergeant Major Michael Webber. He had pinned her down and tried to kiss her at a work social event. An inquest into her death earlier this year determined the Army's handling of the complaint played "more than a minimal contributory part in her death". Webber has now pleaded guilty to sexual assault at a pre-trial hearing, and is awaiting sentencing. Jaysley's inquest in February this year heard that her line manager also harassed her, with the Army failing to take action. Jaysley's mother Leighann McCready and her solicitor Emma Norton, from the Centre for Military Justice, join Nuala.Janet Willoner, aka the Tree growing granny, has grown more than 4,000 trees in her garden. She forages for seeds, grows them, and they eventually grow in forests in her local area of North Yorkshire. She has been nominated in the BBC's Make a Difference Awards in the Green category. She speaks to Nuala.

I happened to listen to the opening credits today, and this week's chapter is certainly a bit random, and a bit irreverent.What it really needs to accompany it is one of those maps that you get on travel programs, that indicate the route taken as the story unfolds. You know the kind of thing I mean, I have the one from Antiques Road Trip in mind but numerous other examples are available.You start with a static visual of the area in question (in our case North Yorkshire and the East Coast) and then you get a little car-style icon that plots a course from the beginning of the story (in this case Scarborough) around the interim stops (Filingdales, Egton Bridge, Egton, Glaisdale, Staithes) and ending up at the journeys end, which for me was Steve R's childhood home of Whitby.Of course I don't have the go-to-skills to conjure one of those maps up, but how nice would it have been. Anyhow you get the idea.Love'n'streetfightinghTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite

In 2018, the seaside town of Filey was left reeling by the shocking death of 70-year-old Dianne Williamson. A devoted mother and grandmother, she was well-known for her kindness and the love she held for her family.But behind the warmth she showed to those around her, Dianne's life had been overshadowed by years of difficulty within her long-term relationship. What unfolded that year was a tragedy that could not have been foreseen by those who cared for her most.The case brought painful questions to the surface - about loyalty, silence, and the devastating reality of domestic abuse. It also served as a stark reminder that sometimes the people most at risk are those we assume are safe.If you're experiencing domestic abuse and feel frightened of, or controlled by, a partner, an ex-partner or family member, it's important to remember that it's not your fault and there is no shame in seeking help.

The man was activated to take out Zelensky at Poland's Rzeszów–Jasionka Airport using either a first-person view drone or a sniper rifle. The would-be assassin was a firm believer in Soviet ideology. The assassination plot was foiled by a joint effort of Ukraine's SBU, the main internal security agency, and the Polish internal security service known as ABW. Americans less isolationist Americans are moving away from isolationism according to a recent survey by the Ronald Reagan Institute.

Specifically, 69% of Republicans, 64% of Democrats, and 73% of MAGA/Trump Republicans want to see more engagement internationally. A supermajority of Americans – 84% -- state their support for preventing the Islamic Republic from gaining access to nuclear weapons. Only 57% of Americans would agree with the statement that “the United States is better served by withdrawing from international events and focusing on problems here at home.” The major shift in American opinions on this has occurred since the November election.  Russia economy expanded by 4.3% last year Despite international pressures, the Russian economy expanded by 4.3% last year.

It's time for another Listener Questions session! This week we cover commercial property in pensions, ethical investing, inherited pensions and so much more. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA16    01:02  Question 1 Hi Peter / Roger, Many thanks for all the wisdom plus superb book, you two really make my week with the banter. I always hear about DB and DC pensions but wondered if you'd ever cover the following: Many business owners like myself own buildings outright (as a pension) within a Commercial Sipp and then loop back into this rental payments. Also, within this using a GIA for diversified investments including cash lump sums for tax relief when possible. I'm heading North of sixty soon and feel its time to start thinking of the exit plus implications. It would be fantastic to hear your advice on these in the future. Best Regards, Steve 05:47  Question 2 Hello Pete Can ethical investing beat inflation? Myself and my husband are both 63.  We retired at the end of last year, having sold the business we have run for the majority of our working lives. We have some small DC pensions and a SSAS which includes a commercial property.  We both have cash ISAs. I've done some research, helped massively by your podcasts and YouTube videos, so thank you so much for these. From what I have learned I understand that  we need to invest the cash from the business sale in Global Equities.  We also need to look at the investments within the SSAS which, up to now, the SSAS provider has managed.  Cash in the SSAS also needs to be invested. Is there a way of picking a Global Index Tracker which is ethical and will beat inflation and that requires minimal management to keep fees low?  I realise that we need to look at our cash accounts too with this in mind. Many thanks for all your excellent resources and advice, the fog of financial planning is starting to clear and I'm feeling less panicked about being able to manage the money for our future. Kind regards, Rachel 12:52  Question 3 Dear Pete and Rog, Your podcasts have been a real source of steadiness for me over the past few years - a pair of reliable voices amidst the wider financial chaos. I'm writing with a question about nominee (beneficiary) pensions. Sadly, my father passed away recently, and I've inherited half of his private pension pot - around £70k from a total of £140k. It's been set up as a nominee pension, which I understand allows the money to remain invested and grow tax-free, with flexible access at any age. This has been a significant and unexpected legacy, and it's opened up the possibility of scaling back to part-time work well before the official retirement age. (I'm in my late 30s, so there's still a way to go, but it's a big deal for me and brings more options for me) I don't plan to draw from the pot for many years. My intention is to let it grow. The catch, however, is that the provider, without naming names, (let's just say three letters, last one P), is expensive compared to what I'm used to (I invest monthly in a Vanguard LifeStrategy ISA). When I've done some projections I can see that if leave the money where it is indefinitely, the fees will quietly erode a decent chunk of the long-term gains. There's a 6-year early exit charge, so for now I'm content to leave it be. I'm still dealing with bereavement and all the admin of being an executor, so pressing pause on any big financial decisions feels like the right call at this early stage. But when that 6-year period ends, I'll be weighing up whether to stick or twist. My question is: can nominee pensions be transferred to another provider without losing the key benefits, like the tax-free growth and the ability to access the funds flexibly before retirement age? I've looked into alternatives- transferring into my ISA would take years due to the annual limit; a general investment account loses the tax perks; and a conventional pension would lock the funds away until age 55+, which undermines the very flexibility that makes this pot so helpful for future semi-retirement plans. I'd be really grateful for any ideas or thoughts you might have on this. All the best, Alan 19:29  Question 4 Hi guys, I am 31 years old and currently investing 15% of my gross income into my retirement. 6.8% via my employer's DB CARE scheme, and the other 8.2% into my SIPP. My wife and I also contribute £200pm  into a S&S ISA for our son. We hope by the time he is 18 (3 months old now) this fund could pay for university, travel, driving - whatever he wants to do (within reason!). By age 60, I would like to be in a position to retire, whether I do that or not is another question, but I would at least like the option to. I often see YouTube videos titled "SIPP vs ISA which is better?" but I don't see much about how to use them in tandem. Do you have any advice on the optimal weighting between an ISA and SIPP given I'd like to retire before State/DB pension age and therefore, should I be splitting the 8.2% with a S&S ISA too? Thank you! John 24:08  Question 5 Hi Pete & Roger, I'm a big fan of the podcast, it's been a great source of advice for me - thanks for that. I'm currently 55 and probably not looking to draw down anything from my pension until I'm 60 at the earliest. I hadn't paid into my pension for a number of years and now trying to contribute as much as I can to catch up a bit. My main SIPP is £130,000 with Vanguard in a FTSE Global All Cap Index Accumulation Fund and is 100% equity as I'm looking for as much growth as possible over the next 5-10 years and beyond. I also have £25k in another SIPP, a small NEST workplace pension and approximately £60k in a Stocks & Shares ISA, all of which are in various global tracker funds. My main question is, is it a good idea to have everything in global index funds because of the heavy weighting to the USA, especially in tech stocks? I had considered changing my Vanguard fund to their LifeStrategy 100 fund which has a bit more of a UK weighting. I know you probably can't suggest specific products, but I wondered what your general advice would be on this, especially with all the uncertainty in the USA under the Trump administration? Thanks in advance, Alex Wilson 30:29  Question 6 Hi Pete and Rog, Love the podcast and I've been listening for a good few years now, so I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring with a question. I was hoping you could give a quick overview of Qualifying Corporate Bonds, what characteristics the bonds need to have to qualify, what the tax treatment is and where to invest etc. I'm in the fortunate position of having made my contributions in full to my ISAs and Pensions and I'm looking for a tax efficient way to invest an extra few £s. I've heard that they are effectively treated like Gilts but was hoping you could illuminate. Thanka, Adam from Skipton, North Yorkshire

As Lady Latimer after her second wedding in 1534, Catherine, her husband, and her step-children found themselves enmeshed in the growing public anger at Henry's moves to impose his new religion, as well as various other political gripes. In 1536 and 1537, a genuine uprising occurred, with Catholic rebels dragging Lord Latimer - a fellow Catholic - from their home to be pressed into service against the King. Catherine and her step-children were held hostage for months, and Lord Latimer found himself slung up in the Tower of London for some time on suspicion of conspiring with the rebels. The whole episode was enough to leave the family wary of their digs in North Yorkshire and set their sights on olde London town. Finally, Catherine was back in civilization - and at court - and though her much older husband would succumb to ill health in 1543, her adventures in the capitol city were only just beginning.

Today we welcome James Standen onto the R2Kast!

English novelist Daisy Hildyard envisions the deep time evolution of the coastline of Scarborough, North Yorkshire: from a prehistoric meteor strike, to a 19th-century seaside aquarium devoid of fish, a present-day spate of dead tides, and a future where part of the human population has evolved into a hybrid marine species, drawn back to the cradle of the sea to care for its degraded waters. Vividly narrated by acclaimed British actor Colin Salmon, and created as part of Wild Eye—an art and nature trail in Yorkshire that raises awareness about coastal erosion in the face of climate change—this short story traces the forever-shifting tides of our relationship with the sea.  Read the story.
