This episode examines a pivotal legal case on grooming gangs in the UK, centering on survivor Liz's fight for justice against her rapist, Ashgar Boston. Featuring insights from Lord Pearson and legal expert Robin Tilbrook, we explore the complexities of the case, including significant milestones like securing Liz's anonymity and waiving the limitation period. Liz's story underscores the need for accountability from perpetrators and institutions, highlighting a path toward justice not only for her but for many others. This discussion emphasizes our collective responsibility to confront these societal issues and support survivors in reclaiming their lives. Partial Transcript: Hearts of Oak [0:25]different show tonight. I wrote a piece in the Gateway Pundit two days ago, and it was an overview of the legal case that I have been involved in pulling together. And tonight I'm going to bring on, as pre-records, I spoke to Lord Pearson of Rannock earlier. You'll hear his input in the case. I spoke to Liz, obviously the person at the centre of the case, the very brave survivor who I've got to know over the last five years, and Robin Tilbrook, who has been a guest on numerous times. And he, of course, is the legal mastermind, the person who has spearheaded this in terms of the legal side. So I want to touch on all three of those different angles to this case. And this is quite a key case because I think it's a blueprint for hundreds of other cases, really, hundreds of other cases across the UK to go after these rapists, not only to give these girls financial justice, but to bankrupt the perpetrators. We have had well over 500 individuals charged, sentenced, and locked away for these crimes. And this is the first of its kind in terms of getting financial justice for these girls. But I Peter Mcilvenna [1:47]Want to just touch on this. Obviously, it's a stain on British history. And it is something that has been brushed under the carpet for many, many years. Let me bring up, this is just the front of the article. First, private prosecution of a grooming gang rapist, a blueprint for justice. And then I talk about, obviously, the situation in the UK and then how sea girls were actually protected. The crazy part of this is that you have the white people. English communities have, by and large, not stood up for these girls. But yet in the Sikh communities, they set up these vigilante groups that actually would look after these girls. We didn't do that in the English communities. Hearts of Oak [2:36]Being ignored for decades, first reported in 1975 in the Rotherham Advertiser. [2:46] The Stain on British History Hearts of Oak [2:42]And then later on, Julie Bindell wrote in the Sunday Times. And then of course Andrew Norfolk in 2012 on the front page of the Times and his front page story blew this up and made it into a story that the British public were aware of. Over 500 prosecutions, 500 individuals sentenced to this in over 75 trials in over 40 towns across the UK and the head of one of the policing, it was Northampton, said that this is happening in every town across the UK, except, of course, London, because Lee Khan tells us that actually it's not happening in London. Make of that what you will. Maybe London is the perfect city in the world. I don't think so. I think it's been brushed under the carpet there also. Hearts of Oak [3:33]So we've had these all across the country and I want to touch on this legal case, and the link to this article is in the description. It goes back to 2020, whenever Alan Craig, my co-founder at Hearts of Vogue, and Baroness Cox, who, along with Lord Pearson, has been the most vocal person in terms of critiquing Islam and standing up for those who are oppressed under that, especially women. They went to visit Liz in Rotherham. Heard her story and were, not that they'd heard this story before, but again, and also when you meet someone face-to-face and hear it, it's raw. [4:15] A Legal Blueprint for Justice Hearts of Oak [4:16]And they came away wanting to assist in setting up a legal process so she could get financial justice for that. Justice, I don't know how you get justice in terms of this issue, But, so we talked to her, Alan and the Baroness came back from visiting her in Rotherham. I chatted to them both. Immediately, I talked to Lord Pearson. And within days, Lord Pearson had pulled together the money to start this legal case. Without the money, it would have remained just an idea, a vision, a hope. So we started that. That was in August 2020. The money came together beginning of September 2020. And then we reached out to Robin Tillabrook. We had all known Robin, and Robin also had been trying to start such a case before. So we engaged with Robin, pulled together a conversation, and after that conversation, we realized this was possible. Well, we had the funding, we had the girl, the survivor, and we had now the legal ability to move ahead with it. So that was everything. Hearts of Oak [5:33]Then in October 2020, we're kind of started this. We think this is all good. October 2020, Liz learned that Asker Boston, her rapist, had been moved to an open prison. She hadn't even been told. Now, a known prison, this is only serving 32 months of his sentence. He was moved to known prison. A known prison means, hey, you can go home for weekends. You can apply for that. And she was petrified. Did that mean that he would be coming to Rotherham, harassing her? She was living in fear. And, of course, the Ministry of Justice, they gave a bland apology because they didn't really give a damn. Connect with Hearts of Oak. . .

Robert Spencer discusses his upcoming book, "Holy Hell: Islam's Abuse of Women and Infidels Who Enable It," focusing on gender-based violence in Islamic contexts and Western complicity. He notes a slight increase in discussions about Islam in America, but highlights ongoing censorship and backlash. Spencer contrasts his rational activism with more confrontational styles and expresses skepticism about politicians addressing Islamic ideology. He examines misconceptions around Islamic financing and grooming gangs in Europe, linking these issues to Islamic teachings. He concludes by asserting that Islamic scripture, not geopolitical factors, drives aggression against the West, advocating for more open discourse on Islam's societal implications.

Josh Joplin isn't one to dwell on past glories, but there was a time when he was chasing songs worldwide. In 2001, his breakout single "Camera One" became the first independently released song to hit #1 at Triple A Top 40, landing Josh Joplin Group on Artemis Records—a label that boasted acts as varied as J. Mascis, Warren Zevon, The Pretenders, and, yes, the "Who Let the Dogs Out" hitmakers, The Baha Men. ("Camera One" may not have unleashed any canines, but it did land a spot on the cult classic tv show Scrubs.) Joplin followed with The Future That Was (2002), produced by Rob Gal (Magnapop, Rock-a-Teens), and later earned critical praise for Jaywalker, Among the Oak & Ash, and Devil Ship. Now, after years of collaborating with friends and fellow musicians, he returns with his latest album, GpYr ("gap year"). Spin Magazine says GpYr is "a collection of pop-infused gems that, with help of producer Lorenzo Wolff (Taylor Swift's Midnights and Folklore), captures the raw energy of Joplin's earlier works...but with the musical and lyrical layers of the older, wiser musician Joplin has become." More than just a record, GpYr is a sonic scrapbook—a story of four friends who, over one unforgettable summer and autumn, came together for a mission: to rescue Seely from a therapeutic boarding facility in remote New England. In saving her, they saved each other. While the Josh Joplin Group will celebrate the 25th anniversary of Useful Music—the album some say started it all–it's Joplin's “new album that reminds us all of how far we've come.” (Spin Magazine) Learn more about your ad choices.

Wednesday, August 20, 2025 It was one of those steady midweek runs, nothing fancy, just the rhythm of my breath and the soft crunch of gravel underfoot. The blackberries along the trail tempted me, but most of them were just out of reach, dangling like rewards for another time. I curved past King's Pond, where the water had shrunk back for the season. A few ducks lingered, mostly females, while the rest had slipped off to better waters. I carried on, the quiet broken only by a pair of deer grazing off to the side, unbothered by my passing. That's always the magic of this loop—wildlife tucked between fairways and pathways, reminders that the golf course is more than manicured greens. By the time I closed out the half hour, the relief was there as always: my faithful ebike waiting, untouched, ready to whisk me home. A standard mid-weeker, maybe—but a good one, marked by ponds, deer, and the steady pulse of the run.

Growing up in Peoria, Bryan Lockwood's first job in the restaurant business was working with his mother at a diner. Fast forward to his first industry career position as a manager at Bonanza Steakhouse. He enjoyed the work and was promoted to a multi-unit franchise supervisor before becoming a franchise owner-operator in Jacksonville, Ill. At 25, Lockwood sold the business and moved to Florida where, in 2003, he and his partners created the Tavistock restaurant development and management group. Along with other investors, the group purchased 17 restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area. Over the following two decades, Lockwood's company purchased and turned around struggling restaurant concepts and acquired more than 100 restaurants of various brands. "I learned many lessons from this experience, says Lockwood, going on to say, “that included the importance of guests and why listening to them makes you smarter." In this episode, he shares his tips on acquisition as well as the concept development process. “People creating a concept today should not fall in love with their own wishes but rather concentrate on the guest. They should build a team that specializes in areas you don't and finance with contingencies and sufficient working capital." In 2023, Lockwood created his current restaurant company Artistry to acquire and turn around struggling restaurants and create new concepts. Artistry currently owns and operates award-winning restaurants Boca, The Chapman, Oak and Stone, Shrimp Basket, Hickory Tavern, and the Sandbar on Florida's Amelia Island. Lockwood sees today's challenges as more than combating operating costs and the growing competitive landscape. “I see the need to become the employer of choice and maintaining a people culture that begins with the worker-to-manager relationship and from manager to ownership." He believes the best restaurants operate like a reverse mullet haircut. In other words, he explains, "put the party out front and run a tight business in the back.”

Tree Service Express did an AMAZING job on our trees yesterday. The Arica Palms can now all breath, the Oak, trimmed and much weight removed both front and back. We had a tree called a Screw Pine, that suffered from some disease this last year…had to be taken down and totally removed. No sign that the tree was ever there…that's how great a job they did!

In this episode, I engage with David Vance to analyze UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's inadequate response to the migrant crisis, highlighting the implications for British identity and sovereignty. Vance discusses the demographic shifts indicated by the rising popularity of the name Muhammad, warning of a transformed Britain by 2063. We critique the Online Safety Act's potential threats to free speech and personal privacy, and examine media misreporting of migrant-related crimes. Vance also draws parallels to US immigration policies, calling them "civilizational suicide." We wrap up by discussing super injunctions and the need for transparency in governance, urging listeners to consider the broader impact of these pressing issues. Connect with David...

BRING IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC TO THE WORLD FOR 20 YEARS On July 28, 2005, I released the very first episode of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. This was not my first podcast. There were four others that I released first. All of them are still available to this day. Though one podfaded. When I started, I was publishing the Celtic Music Magazine every week. I started podcasting to promote Celtic bands, but mostly I wanted to promote my own band, Brobdingnagian Bards. It was a new and exciting way to get my music heard. But something happened along the way. It became less and less about my band and more about how I could help bands be heard. And it worked. In fact, I featured a total of 79 Celtic bands in the months that followed in 2005. That includes Brobdingnagian Bards and my Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers project. Here are some of the bands who were featured. 1: Susan Hamlin, Three Quarter Ale, Dust Rhinos, Cluan, Fathom, The BorderCollies, Tara's Fire, Paul McKenna, Marc Gunn & The Dubliners' Tabby Cats, Brobdingnagian Bards 2: StoneRing, The Slip, Hugh Morrison, Caladh, MacTalla Mor, Lenahan, The Bloody Irish Boys, Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer, Celtic Stone 3: The Barley Boys, Contea, Queen's Gambit, Highland Fling, Michael Murphy and the River Shannon Band, Amadan, Raymond McCullough, Bow Triplets, The Rogues 4: The Irish Experience, Cairde na Gael, The Black Irish, Avalon Rising, Heather Gilmer and Jeff Moore, Sarah Dinan, Bedlam Bards, Emerald Rose, Kristen Roger, Heather Dale, Serious Kitchen, Empty Hats 5: Rise, Ed Miller, Tullamore, Paisley Close, Cantiga, Thomas "Doc" Grauzer, Cady Finlayson, Rimbo, Don Grieve, Black 47 6: Moch Pryderi, Enter the Haggis, The Patched Hats, Seelie Court, Eric Benson with The Boatrights, Ali Benson, 3 Pints Gone, Sligo Rags, Angel's Share 7: The Tea Merchants, Keltic Kaleidoscope, Brothers 3, EJ Jones, Shays Rebellion, Marc Gunn 8: Niamh Parsons, Flook, Willie McCulloch, Gan Fidil, Pol Mac Adaim, The Elders 9: Tears for Beers, Clandestine, Stonering, Athas, Carl Peterson You can see the full list on the website. Many of these artists are no longer performing. What's more interesting is that about a quarter of these artists are still making new music to this day. Today, I will highlight some of the amazing Celtic bands that are still performing after 15 - 20 years. I started my list with three perennial favorites of mine who've been on the show for a long time and are still performing: Poitin, Ed Miller, and The Gothard Sisters. Admittedly, The Gothard Sisters were a late addition to the show, coming on in 2010. But of all the bands, they are to me a shining beacon of this podcast. Because you can see them grow and develop as musicians and songwriters over the course of this show. So I had to include them. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

A meditation preached at Lyncroft Centre, Toronto, on July 20, 2025.In Genesis 18 we have the account of the appearance of the Lord to Abraham at the Oak of Mamre. It is a wonderful account, in the heat of the day, with the cicada and the grasshoppers buzzing and the heat haze. Then we get a mirror image of this with the account of Bethany, and Jesus being treated, with his apostles by Martha and Mary. (Luke 10:38-42)It's all about where we can contemplate God and serve him in our life. Framing our stresses, anxiety, our multiple tasks in the light of God's love.Music: Michael Lee of Toronto.Thumbnail: Andrei Rublev Icon of Three Angels at Oaks of Mambre, 1410 in Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow.

Elyse is also the co-host of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, a top spirituality podcast where she shares wisdom on Witchcraft, ritual, and more.In today's episode, we talked about the act of pilgrimage to ancient sites in Greece, divination, and devotional relationships with Land spirits and Gods.
