In this episode Gudrun speaks with Nadja Klein and Moussa Kassem Sbeyti who work at the Scientific Computing Center (SCC) at KIT in Karlsruhe. Since August 2024, Nadja has been professor at KIT leading the research group Methods for Big Data (MBD) there. She is an Emmy Noether Research Group Leader, and a member of AcademiaNet, and Die Junge Akademie, among others. In 2025, Nadja was awarded the Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies (COPSS) Emerging Leader Award (ELA). The COPSS ELA recognizes early career statistical scientists who show evidence of and potential for leadership and who will help shape and strengthen the field. She finished her doctoral studies in Mathematics at the Universität Göttingen before conducting a postdoc at the University of Melbourne as a Feodor-Lynen fellow by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Afterwards she was a Professor for Statistics and Data Science at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin before joining KIT. Moussa joined Nadja's lab as an associated member in 2023 and later as a postdoctoral researcher in 2024. He pursued a PhD at the TU Berlin while working as an AI Research Scientist at the Continental AI Lab in Berlin. His research primarily focuses on deep learning, developing uncertainty-based automated labeling methods for 2D object detection in autonomous driving. Prior to this, Moussa earned his M.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering from the TU Darmstadt in 2021. The research of Nadja and Moussa is at the intersection of statistics and machine learning. In Nadja's MBD Lab the research spans theoretical analysis, method development and real-world applications. One of their key focuses is Bayesian methods, which allow to incorporate prior knowledge, quantify uncertainties, and bring insights to the “black boxes” of machine learning. By fusing the precision and reliability of Bayesian statistics with the adaptability of machine and deep learning, these methods aim to leverage the best of both worlds. The KIT offers a strong research environment, making it an ideal place to continue their work. They bring new expertise that can be leveraged in various applications and on the other hand Helmholtz offers a great platform in that respect to explore new application areas. For example Moussa decided to join the group at KIT as part of the Helmholtz Pilot Program Core-Informatics at KIT (KiKIT), which is an initiative focused on advancing fundamental research in informatics within the Helmholtz Association. Vision models typically depend on large volumes of labeled data, but collecting and labeling this data is both expensive and prone to errors. During his PhD, his research centered on data-efficient learning using uncertainty-based automated labeling techniques. That means estimating and using the uncertainty of models to select the helpful data samples to train the models to label the rest themselves. Now, within KiKIT, his work has evolved to include knowledge-based approaches in multi-task models, eg. detection and depth estimation — with the broader goal of enabling the development and deployment of reliable, accurate vision systems in real-world applications. Statistics and data science are fascinating fields, offering a wide variety of methods and applications that constantly lead to new insights. Within this domain, Bayesian methods are especially compelling, as they enable the quantification of uncertainty and the incorporation of prior knowledge. These capabilities contribute to making machine learning models more data-efficient, interpretable, and robust, which are essential qualities in safety-critical domains such as autonomous driving and personalized medicine. Nadja is also enthusiastic about the interdisciplinarity of the subject — repeatedly changing the focus from mathematics to economics to statistics to computer science. The combination of theoretical fundamentals and practical applications makes statistics an agile and important field of research in data science. From a deep learning perspective, the focus is on making models both more efficient and more reliable when dealing with large-scale data and complex dependencies. One way to do this is by reducing the need for extensive labeled data. They also work on developing self-aware models that can recognize when they're unsure and even reject their own predictions when necessary. Additionally, they explore model pruning techniques to improve computational efficiency, and specialize in Bayesian deep learning, allowing machine learning models to better handle uncertainty and complex dependencies. Beyond the methods themselves, they also contribute by publishing datasets that help push the development of next-generation, state-of-the-art models. The learning methods are applied across different domains such as object detection, depth estimation, semantic segmentation, and trajectory prediction — especially in the context of autonomous driving and agricultural applications. As deep learning technologies continue to evolve, they're also expanding into new application areas such as medical imaging. Unlike traditional deep learning, Bayesian deep learning provides uncertainty estimates alongside predictions, allowing for more principled decision-making and reducing catastrophic failures in safety-critical application. It has had a growing impact in several real-world domains where uncertainty really matters. Bayesian learning incorporates prior knowledge and updates beliefs as new data comes in, rather than relying purely on data-driven optimization. In healthcare, for example, Bayesian models help quantify uncertainty in medical diagnoses, which supports more risk-aware treatment decisions and can ultimately lead to better patient outcomes. In autonomous vehicles, Bayesian models play a key role in improving safety. By recognizing when the system is uncertain, they help capture edge cases more effectively, reduce false positives and negatives in object detection, and navigate complex, dynamic environments — like bad weather or unexpected road conditions — more reliably. In finance, Bayesian deep learning enhances both risk assessment and fraud detection by allowing the system to assess how confident it is in its predictions. That added layer of information supports more informed decision-making and helps reduce costly errors. Across all these areas, the key advantage is the ability to move beyond just accuracy and incorporate trust and reliability into AI systems. Bayesian methods are traditionally more expensive, but modern approximations (e.g., variational inference or last layer inference) make them feasible. Computational costs depend on the problem — sometimes Bayesian models require fewer data points to achieve better performance. The trade-off is between interpretability and computational efficiency, but hardware improvements are helping bridge this gap. Their research on uncertainty-based automated labeling is designed to make models not just safer and more reliable, but also more efficient. By reducing the need for extensive manual labeling, one improves the overall quality of the dataset while cutting down on human effort and potential labeling errors. Importantly, by selecting informative samples, the model learns from better data — which means it can reach higher performance with fewer training examples. This leads to faster training and better generalization without sacrificing accuracy. They also focus on developing lightweight uncertainty estimation techniques that are computationally efficient, so these benefits don't come with heavy resource demands. In short, this approach helps build models that are more robust, more adaptive to new data, and significantly more efficient to train and deploy — which is critical for real-world systems where both accuracy and speed matter. Statisticians and deep learning researchers often use distinct methodologies, vocabulary and frameworks, making communication and collaboration challenging. Unfortunately, there is a lack of Interdisciplinary education: Traditional academic programs rarely integrate both fields. It is necessary to foster joint programs, workshops, and cross-disciplinary training can help bridge this gap. From Moussa's experience coming through an industrial PhD, he has seen how many industry settings tend to prioritize short-term gains — favoring quick wins in deep learning over deeper, more fundamental improvements. To overcome this, we need to build long-term research partnerships between academia and industry — ones that allow for foundational work to evolve alongside practical applications. That kind of collaboration can drive more sustainable, impactful innovation in the long run, something we do at methods for big data. Looking ahead, one of the major directions for deep learning in the next five to ten years is the shift toward trustworthy AI. We're already seeing growing attention on making models more explainable, fair, and robust — especially as AI systems are being deployed in critical areas like healthcare, mobility, and finance. The group also expect to see more hybrid models — combining deep learning with Bayesian methods, physics-based models, or symbolic reasoning. These approaches can help bridge the gap between raw performance and interpretability, and often lead to more data-efficient solutions. Another big trend is the rise of uncertainty-aware AI. As AI moves into more high-risk, real-world applications, it becomes essential that systems understand and communicate their own confidence. This is where uncertainty modeling will play a key role — helping to make AI not just more powerful, but also more safe and reliable. The lecture "Advanced Bayesian Data Analysis" covers fundamental concepts in Bayesian statistics, including parametric and non-parametric regression, computational techniques such as MCMC and variational inference, and Bayesian priors for handling high-dimensional data. Additionally, the lecturers offer a Research Seminar on Selected Topics in Statistical Learning and Data Science. The workgroup offers a variety of Master's thesis topics at the intersection of statistics and deep learning, focusing on Bayesian modeling, uncertainty quantification, and high-dimensional methods. Current topics include predictive information criteria for Bayesian models and uncertainty quantification in deep learning. Topics span theoretical, methodological, computational and applied projects. Students interested in rigorous theoretical and applied research are encouraged to explore our available projects and contact us for further details. The general advice of Nadja and Moussa for everybody interested to enter the field is: "Develop a strong foundation in statistical and mathematical principles, rather than focusing solely on the latest trends. Gain expertise in both theory and practical applications, as real-world impact requires a balance of both. Be open to interdisciplinary collaboration. Some of the most exciting and meaningful innovations happen at the intersection of fields — whether that's statistics and deep learning, or AI and domain-specific areas like medicine or mobility. So don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, ask questions across disciplines, and look for ways to connect different perspectives. That's often where real breakthroughs happen. With every new challenge comes an opportunity to innovate, and that's what keeps this work exciting. We're always pushing for more robust, efficient, and trustworthy AI. And we're also growing — so if you're a motivated researcher interested in this space, we'd love to hear from you." Literature and further information Webpage of the group G. Nuti, Lluis A.J.

We're joined by Pen Farthing is an ex Royal Marine Commando who founded the charity Nowzad to help dogs and cats in the Helmand province of Afghanistan. We chat about the amazing work the charity achieved in sterilising dogs and cats and the vaccinating programs against rabies. Also in re-uniting soldiers across the world with their beloved dog or cat they'd befriended during their tour of duty. Not only that but offering education at a local level about dogs, and helping women realise their dreams in becoming vet nurses and vets at their centre in Nowzad. In August 2021 when the allied forces pulled out of Afghanistan leaving it under Taliban control, Pen set out on a mission to help bring as many people and animals to the UK . He discusses this landmark moment in history, how he refused to abandon his charity's staff or the rescue animals. And Operation Ark was born. We chat about how the fallout being branded him as a villain, who valued ‘pets over people' - when nothing was further from the truth! We talk about his book Operation Ark, the cathartic effect of documenting what actually happened, which we discuss in detail. Along with what Pen is working on now in Ukraine and in Afghanistan.Order your copy of Operation Ark here and follow on Instagram @nawzadrescue and @penfarthingBattersea's InstagramFor more about Anna go to annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhian Ap Gruffydd at Gruff PawtraitsTo advertise on or sponsor A Dog's Life email: info@theloniouspunkproductions.com

Britain's Foreign Office abandoned many of the nation's allies in Afghanistan and left them to the mercy of the Taliban during the fall of the capital, Kabul, because of a dysfunctional and arbitrary evacuation effort, a whistleblower alleged Tuesday.In devastating evidence to a parliamentary committee, Raphael Marshall said thousands of pleas for help via email were unread between Aug. 21 and Aug. 25. The former Foreign Office employee estimated that only 5% of Afghan nationals who applied to flee under one U.K. program received help. He said that at one point, he was the only person monitoring the inbox.“There were usually over 5,000 unread emails in the inbox at any given moment, including many unread emails dating from early in August," he wrote to the Foreign Affairs Select Committee, which is investigating Britain's chaotic departure from Afghanistan. “These emails were desperate and urgent. I was struck by many titles including phrases such as ‘please save my children'."Marshall said some of those left behind had been killed by the Taliban.One of Marshall's most explosive allegations is a claim that British officials spent time and energy arranging the evacuation of almost 200 dogs and cats from a Kabul animal shelter run by Nowzad, a charity founded by former Royal Marine Pen Farthing.Marshall claimed Foreign Office staff had “received an instruction from the Prime Minister to use considerable capacity to transport Nowzad's animals.” He claimed British soldiers were put at risk to get the animals out of Kabul.Prime Minister Boris Johnson's spokesman, Max Blain, said the allegation was “entirely untrue” and neither Johnson nor his wife Carrie, an animal-welfare advocate, had been involved in helping the animals leave.He said Farthing and his animals left Afghanistan on a privately chartered plane which was given clearance by British officials.“We are confident that at no point clearance for that charter plane interrupted our capability to evacuate people,” Blain said.As the Taliban took power in August, the United States, the U.K. and other countries rushed to evacuate Afghans who had worked with Western forces and others at risk of violent reprisals.Britain managed to airlift 15,000 people out of the country in two weeks, and the government says it has since helped more than 3,000 others leave Afghanistan.But an Afghan Resettlement Scheme announced by the government in August with the goal of bringing another 20,000 people to Britain has yet to get underway.Former Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, who was moved from the Foreign Office to become Justice Secretary after the crisis, defended his actions.“Some of the criticism seems rather dislocated from the facts on the ground, the operational pressures that with the takeover of the Taliban, unexpected around the world," he told the BBC. “I do think that not enough recognition has been given to quite how difficult it was.”Tom Tugendhat, a Conservative lawmaker who heads the foreign affairs committee, said Marshall's testimony “raises serious questions about the leadership of the Foreign Office.” The committee is due to quiz senior Foreign Office civil servants later Tuesday.The Taliban stormed across Afghanistan in late summer, capturing all major cities in a matter of days, as Afghan security forces trained and equipped by the U.S. and its allies melted away. The Taliban took over Kabul on Aug. 15.Tens of thousands of Afghans attempted to leave by air or land, fearing the country could descend into chaos or that the Taliban would reimpose the harsh interpretation of Islamic law that they relied on when they ran Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. At the time, women had to wear the all-encompassing burqa and be accompanied by a male relative whenever they went outside. The Taliban banned music, cut off the hands of thieves and stoned adulterers.- by Danica Kirka and Jill Lawless, Associated Press

On the latest episode of the double award winning podcast, Pen Farthing tells us what really happened in that dramatic animal rescue from Afghanistan. He addresses the claims, the counter-claims, the truth and the lies. “This was NEVER about pets over people”. The wonderful charity Nowzad was dedicated to saving dogs, cats and donkeys, giving them a better life and spreading the word on animal welfare but can that work ever continue? His brave, compassionate staff are safe after a dramatic journey through the mountains to Pakistan and then onto the UK but their hearts will always be back home, with the voiceless.

What can you say about Pen Farthing....??? Some view him as a national hero for the work he has carried out to help and save animals but in the recent months the British Media have had nothing but a target on his back.  Pen Farthing comes from a military background most recently serving in Afghanistan. It was there he encountered a special dog (he later named Nowzad after the town they were based in the Helmund area of Afghanistan) and when the troops were moving on he knew he had to do all he could to save this dog and several others he was caring for at that time. After a long journey in awful conditions most of the dogs made it safely to the rescue centre and it was only a year later Pen realised more soldiers wanted to bring dogs home after serving and so Nowzad was born.In 2007 Nowzad began the mission of helping cats, dogs and donkeys within the Afghanistan area. Animals which would otherwise have been left to fend for themselves and face a horrible death through starvation, cruelty, illness or disease. Pen worked tirelessly with his amazing team and created a special place for these animals to be healed, spayed, neutered and find homes, sending them all over the world through adoptions. Pen also employed women as vets and workers and this supported modern values and respect within a country which had previously been known for treating women as second class citizens, often worthless.In 2021 President Joe Biden announced the removal of the US troops in Afghanistan and shortly after the UK troops also started to leave. It was an emergency situation and the country was thrown into chaos as many people tried to flee the country which was swiftly taken over by the Taliban and people were desperate to find a way out.Pen wanted to get himself and his staff to safety as well as his beloved animals. This was not easy and was like battling through a series of gauntlets. Facing violence and danger head on eventually Pen made it onto an aircraft with his animals and was brought with them to the UK. This was not easy or simple and the situation was changing hour by hour. No one can imagine the stress and anxiety this must have caused Pen and his team.After Pen's return to the UK the British Media published many untruths about Pen and Nowzad and he had to speak his own truth to those who cared enough to listen. I was more than ready to listen. Pen tells me about his departure from the place which had become his home, the struggle in trying to get his staff and animals to safety and what life is like for the small number who decided to stay behind for various reasons and who now take care of the donkeys and horses who could not be evacuated.He talks about his career in the beginning and his plans for the future of Nowzad and updates me on the animals currently in quarantine and those who have been thankfully already adopted into wonderful new homes.Pen has done so much for animals in a war stricken country and deserves support and to speak his truth. Thank you Pen for all you have done! You really are a the epitome of what a hero should be!Thanks for listeningEnjoy Fiona xSupport the show

“We knew the Taliban was going to regain power … we just didn't know when,” Pen Farthing told us in this episode. A British-soldier-turned animal welfare hero, Farthing founded and managed Nowzad—an animal shelter and clinic in Kabul. He and his staff (many of whom were Afghani women) spent years rescuing dogs and cats, running animal education programs, and administering spay/neuter operations and rabies vaccinations for Kabul's strays. Farthing made headlines when the Taliban took over, transporting over 60 animals out of Kabul and to the UK. In this episode, Farthing recounts the rescue effort and touches on the barriers Afghanistan now faces in terms of NGOs, women's rights, and more. His first-hand experience is eye-opening, and we hope it inspires you to seize any opportunities so often taken for granted. What we discuss in this episode:   - The hurdles the Nowzad faced in rescuing the animals from Kabul   - The status of the donkey sanctuary and animal clinic   - Reunification stories of dogs, cats, and the soldiers that bonded with them   - The new politics of Afghanistan and how it affects womens' rights   - The rocky future of NGOs under Taliban governance   - Logistics of adopting out the rescued dogs   - Meet-and-greet with Pen's rescued dogs   - Pen's books: https://www.nowzad.com/the-store/c/books    - Learn more about Nowzad: www.nowzad.com   - Follow Pen on Instagram @penfarthing   - Use code SWITCH at maxinesheavenly.com/switch for 25% off your cookie order!   Connect with Switch4Good - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ2toqAmlQpwR1HDF_KKfGg   - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Switch4Good/   - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/switch4good/   - Twitter - https://twitter.com/Switch4GoodOrg   - Website - https://switch4good.org/

When we started these podcasts we both had a slight concern that there might not be enough going on to do an episode every week. We should have known better – actually we really should have known better because we've been working on this stuff for years. There are apparently no limits to humanity's war with wildlife and the environment, and a case in point this week is the Grind, the disgusting slaughter of cetaceans in the Faeroe Islands, which Dominic discusses in-depth, suggesting that suspending the UK's free trade agreement with the Islands is key.  Dominic also gives an update on Nowzad and Pen Farthing. Charlie talks about the National Trust and so-called trail hunting. We have a shortcast from Luke Steele of Wild Moors. And we'll be naming our heroes (including Sea Shepherd and 'Stop the Stink') and villains and giving shoutouts to a march in London, a discussion and webinar on the badger cull, and a Whale and Dolphin Conservation petition 'Lockdown Never Ends' which is aimed at the TUI Group .Dominic Dyer  Daily Mail opinion piece on the GrindTrade between UK and Faeroe Islands September 2021 pdfNowzad Operation Ark updateThe War on Wildlife Project National Trust and trail hunting 101League Against Cruel Sports Trail huntingWild Moors  Standard Life snaps up moorland estate for rewilding in net-zero drive Stop the Stink websiteHerts and Middx Badger Group 'Voices for Badgers' webinarWhale and Dolphin Conservation Lockdown never ends – tell TUI to stop supporting captivity

This week Anna is joined by Beverley Cuddy who amongst other dog-centric roles, is one of the Patrons of SAMPA - the Stolen and Missing Pets Alliance. They chat about the great news that government are introducing new legislation - the Pet Abduction Law to make penalties for dog theft in line with the crime. With specific legislation that recognises that dogs are clearly not ‘property' or chattel with consequences of up to seven years in prison for ‘abducting' a dog. The hope is that dog theft will decrease. A long time coming, this law has been campaigned for years, not least by Debbie Matthews, and Vets get Scanning. For years criminals have optimised a loophole in the Theft Act 1968 where dogs have been previously classified along with laptops and lawnmowers! The surge in dog theft through the pandemic when the demand for dogs outstripped their supply, made national headlines and brought the attention to the pain and suffering and complete devastation that stealing someone's dog has on families. Government's change to classify dogs separately and not as part of the Theft Act 1968, which clearly has left families vulnerable to nasty criminals, has been spear-headed by Sir Iain Duncan-Smith. Having championed #PetTheftReform, he has helped bring massive change  in only a few months. And a major move under their new Animal Action Plan which aims to make Britain a leader in animal welfare globally. The term ‘abduction' implies another aspect of their ‘plan' to classify animals as sentient beings, which is significant and in line with modern socio-economic trends where dogs are now firmly considered as family members and not as property under the Theft Act 1968. We are living with dogs in such different ways now, and dog ownership has soared compared to back in the day as we seek dogs constant companionship, their skills as de-stressors, and their gateway to the outdoors.Discussing the positive changes Government have initiated, we also discuss why the legislation around Breed Specific Legislation isn't as positive, where sadly only two MP's attended a debate in parliament on its possible change  much to the disappointment  of the dog community. In Beverley's long standing position as Editor of Dogs Today Magazine and founder of Tailwise we also talk about why Beverley has launched a new Awards called the Bark Marks. Recognising successes  in the dog world from best TV Vet to best Politician,  how chuffed were we to get the scoop  that A DOG'S LIFE has been nominated for ‘Best Dog Podcast', which made our day! Chatting  about the recent amazing success of Operation Ark to evacuate NOWZAD's animals and team, headed Pen Farthing, out of Afghanistan. And wonder who might play Pen in the movie!  For more information on SAMPA Instagram: @pet_theft_ukTwitter: @SAMPAuk_FacebookTailwise: websiteTwitter: @tailwiseInstagram: @TailwiseFacebook: Dogs Today MagazineFor more about Anna go to annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhain Ap Gruffydd at Gruff PawtraitsTo advertise on or sponsor A Dog's Life email: info@theloniouspunkproductions.com

In this one-off special episode we focus exclusively on the inside story of 'Operation Ark', the campaign set up by Afghanistan-based animal rescue charity Nowzad to evacuate its staff and animals from Kabul as the city fell to the Taliban. In a remarkable two week period social media lit up as people everywhere demanded action to get Nowzad staff and their animals out of danger;  British media first embraced former marine and  Nowzad founder Pen Farthing then turned against him as a government minister and his special advisor spun what had always been a humanitarian rescue mission into a false argument about putting 'pets before people'; and with an aircraft ready to fly into Kabul Airport the story became a race against time to land as air corridors shifted and the few remaining troops that controlled access to entrance gates and landing strips were pulled out.While all this was taking place, Off the Leash's Dominic Dyer found himself becoming the public face of Operation Ark,  explaining the same points over again on multiple TV and radio appearances and - in increasingly frustrated and exasperated tones - on his own social media platforms. Operation Ark continues to work for the evacuation of all Nowzad staff, but with at least Pen Farthing and many of the charity's animals safe Dominic can now look back on a tumultuous fortnight, the barriers he came up against, and the extraordinarily compassionate and courageous people he found himself fighting for. As he explains in this podcast he initially had no idea how consuming the battle to 'rescue the animal rescuers' would be but felt compelled to do whatever he could because, as he reflects, "if you're fortunate enough to be part of a team like that, make the most of it - that's what makes life worth living".Nowzad Website and FacebookNowzad Operation Ark updatesPen Farthing Twitter feed

Content note: This episode does contain some discussion of sexual harassment. This week Rebecca and Emily discuss some recent charity headlines, including developments in the Chartered Institute of Fundraising sexual harassment investigation, the closure of Virgin Money Giving, possible changes to the General Data Protection Regulation and the situation with the Kabul-based animal charity Nowzad. This episode also includes a regular Good News Bulletin, of positive charity stories from the past week.

Puntata numero 100 (604) conduce Lorenzo Guadagnucci: * La tragedia afgana riguarda anche gli animali e gli attivisti che li difendono: ha notizia il caso dell'ex marine britannico, cofondatore a Kabul di un rifugio per cani e gatti (Nowzad), che si batte per portare fuori del paese sia i volontari della struttura, sia gli animali: la loro salvezza non è un lusso né una stravaganza, ma parte di un'idea di tutela dei diritti e delle libertà fondamentali; * Salta per la terza volta la Conferenza globale sulla biodiversità, chiamata in teoria a prendere decisioni forti e importanti: il rinvio è causata dalla pandemia, a sua volta originata dalla perdita di biodiversità, un paradossale circolo vizioso che dice molto del mondo in cui viviamo; * Francesco Panié nella sua rubrica Lessico dell'Antropocene, si occupa di mutualismo, un fenomeno sia naturale sia sociale alternativo al modello darwiniano (o meglio: all'interpretazione competitiva e distruttiva che si è data delle teorie di Darwin); * Notizie del mondo del conservazionismo: si stanno riproducendo le linci introdotte nelle Alpi; il Kenia avvia un difficile censimento delle specie selvatiche a rischio estinzione; cresce la popolazione del camosci in Appennino; * Gabriele Palloni dedica all'Afghanistan la ricetta della settimana.

Before turmoil engulfed Afghanistan this week, a charity called Nowzad relieved the suffering of animals in Afghanistan, including companion animals, working equines, and stray and abandoned dogs.

Last week was notable for three things: an alpaca named Geronimo,  a report that led the UN secretary-general António Guterres, to call it a “code red for humanity”, and the unfolding tragedy in Afghanistan. We discuss all three. We also have a shortcast from veterinary scientist Iain McGill (who has done so much work exposing the government's failed 'test and slaughter' BovineTB policy), and raw audio from Dominic on the 'Rescue the Animal Rescuers' campaign. Charlie has a close look at a petition which it turns out wants 'animal rights protestors' kept off farms. In Heroes and Villains we praise the animal welfare teams working in Kabul, and slate the politicians that made such a mess of last week.  In our 'Shoutout' we give the link to donate to Nowzad, Pen Farthing's animal rescue centre in Afghanistan.The Independent  Geronimo's owner says she has 'new hope' IPCC Sixth Assessment ReportThe Guardian  Denialism, Anti-vaxxers,  and the climate crisisNowzad (winning the war for animals) website and Donate pageThe Mayhew Afghanistan

‘Shortcasts' are short standalone audio comments and statements from conservationists, campaigners, charities, authors and members of our audience. If it needs to be said – say it here!Rescue the Animal Rescuers: Ricky Gervais, Dame Judi Dench and Peter Egan join calls for Boris Johnson and the Government to rescue animal rescuers from the Taliban As the Taliban closes in on Kabul and an emergency evacuation begins before the city falls, an urgent campaign "Rescue the Animal Rescuers" has been established to call on the Prime Minister and British Government to include on the British Rescue list, vets, vet nurses, animal care staff and their immediate family members, who are working for two British animal welfare charities in Kabul, Nowzad and the Mayhew.Both these charities have worked for over a decade in Afghanistan in the most dangerous of conditions to vaccinate and neuter street dogs, put in place rabies control programmes, care for working animals and rehome rescue dogs and cats in Britain and around the world.They have invested millions of pounds from British donors to set up veterinary clinics and animal care centres and to train a new generation of Afghan men and women to become qualified vets and vet nurses, which has led to a significant improvement in animal welfare in Afghanistan.However, with American and Nato forces withdrawing from Afghanistan and the Taliban about to regain control of the country, this work can no longer continue and the dedicated animal rescuers of Afghanistan are now to be left at the mercy of the Taliban.  Many of the young women working as vets and vet nurses  face forced marriage to Taliban leaders under the threat of rape or death and many of the men could also face deadly reprisals from the Taliban, particularly for assisting Nato forces and contractors in caring for their military and security dogs. Britain is desperately short of qualified vets and vet nurses and all the veterinary care teams that work for Nowzad and the Mayhew could quickly find employment in veterinary surgeries in Britain if they were rescued from Kabul.Ricky Gervais comedian actor, director and producer said :"Pen Farthing and his team Nowzad have done amazing work for over a decade in Kabul, they have saved thousands of dogs and provided work for the local community and instigated educational programmes which have benefited their community. Their lives are now in danger. They need our help now." Actor and animal welfare campaigner Peter Egan said : "I visited Pen Farthing and Nowzad in Kabul in 2013. I was so impressed by the inspiring work he and his team were doing that I became their patron/ambassador. Working in a war zone has always made extraordinary demands on this wonderful charity..demands that were met by Pen and his team.  Now that the Taliban will certainly overrun Kabul in the next few days his life and the lives of all of his team are in danger. they need our help..we must not ignore them in their hour of need. We must get Pen...his team and his animals to safety...it is not impossible to achieve, it just takes commitment. The same support is needed for The Mayhew and their staff. Let's get this done."For more details on the work of Nowzad see https://www.nowzad.comDonate to Nowzad For more details on the work of the Mayhew see https://themayhew.org/For media contact campaign: Dominic Dyer on 07876 596233 or dominicdyer@aol.com

One of our own just won a big award! We also announce our next experiment before diving into the beer world, both new and old, including a cool new blend of hops from sponsor Yakima Chief Hops that we're going to give away to the two challenge recipes we choose!

NEXT EPISODE - ALL Q&A - GET YOUR QUESTIONS IN! It's our annual post conference wrapup and we hit the latest in beer news, look at some new books and revisit some really old brews. And then in the lounge, Drew sits down with the iconic craft brew veteran, Alan Sprints of Hair of the Dog. We taste some beers and talk about his unqiue take on building beers. There's even one beer that Drew thought should be a mess, but was amazingly sublime. Episode Links: BrewSwag.com - Use Code "Experimental" and save 7.5% and give 7.5% to our charity fund!

Clare Balding is walking with dogs (and their owners) throughout this series of Ramblings. Prog 5: Pen Farthing on Dartmoor Pen Farthing is a former Royal Marine; while serving in Afghanistan he rescued an Afghan fighting dog which he named NowZad after the village where his unit was based. He brought NowZad back to the UK (which in itself required military-style planning) and when he left the Marines started a charity which runs a shelter in Afghanistan for stray and abandoned animals. The central aim of the charity is to catch, neuter and release stray dogs to prevent the population growing yet further. Pen lives in Tiverton in Devon and, for this edition of Ramblings, he takes Clare Balding on a wild walk across Dartmoor. Accompanying them is Patchdog (a massive Afghan Kuchi) and Maxchap (rescued from Iraq). Sadly Nowzad is a little old for such a long walk, but his story is central. Producer Karen Gregor.

In this episode of Pet Pardons News Radio, your hosts Jeromie Williams, the Managing Editor of Pet Pardons and Tawnee Preisner, the Vice President of Horse Plus Humane will be speaking with Pen Farthing from Nowzad. Nowzad is the only animal shelter in Afghanistan and is in danger of being shut down unless volunteers can raise the money to build a new shelter to replace the one that local authorities are shutting down. With a goal of $250,000 to build a facility, animal advocates from around the world are being asked to mobilize and help keep this important facility alive. Listeners will also have the chance to call in and speak with Pen Farthing during the show.
