This week, Michael is joined by Munira Mirza. Raised in Oldham and educated at Oxford, Munira worked at Policy Exchange before serving as Deputy Mayor of London under Boris Johnson and later as Director of the No.10 Policy Unit, where she helped shape the Conservatives' 2019 election manifesto. She now leads Civic Future and the think tank Fix Britain.In the first of this two-part interview, Munira reflects on Labour's vulnerability in the upcoming Gorton and Denton by-election, and the ‘serious threat' it faces if the Muslim votes flees to the Greens. She discusses the politicisation of religious identity, the influence of Islamism in Britain, and what she sees as a failure of public authorities to confront hard truths.They also discuss the news this week that Valdo Calocane – the man who killed three people in Nottingham in 2023 – was released from hospital in 2020 because health professionals were concerned about the disproportionate number of black men who were being detained in the mental health system. Munira argues that fear of being accused of institutional racism has distorted decision-making, a scandal of potentially greater magnitude than the grooming gangs and with serious consequences for public safety.Finally, she revisits Brexit and the 2019 realignment, defending the decision to leave the EU and arguing that levelling up was an attempt to fix a broken economic model built on high immigration and weak productivity.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Also on today's episode, a Sheppey woman who lost her dad to cancer is calling on peers not to stand in the way of the assisted dying bill. MPs voted it through last June with a narrow majority.

Nurseries in Kent are taking on a challenge to read at least four books a day, as data show children's reading has hit a 20-year low.

A former arcade on Sheppey is set to reopen as a sports lounge. The site in Beachfields in Sheerness has been empty for several years after closing during Covid. Neptune Sports Lounge is moving from its current location in Neptune Terrace and we've been speaking to owner Charlie Minta.

This week on ParaReality, Sandman sits down with experiencer and author Bret Oldham to explore a side of contact that rarely gets discussed — what happens after the encounters. Based on themes from his book Children of the Greys: Aftermath, Bret shares what it's like to live with the long-term psychological, emotional, and personal impact of experiences that don't come with clear explanations or easy closure. This conversation moves beyond sightings and speculation, diving into memory, identity, family ripple effects, and the challenge of integrating extraordinary experiences into everyday life. Whether you see the phenomenon as external, internal, symbolic, or something else entirely — this episode explores the human side of the unknown.

In today's episode we react to the Manchester City defeat and the reality of where Liverpool now stand in the table. Seven minutes from time we were five points behind… now it's eleven. Margins are small — but the pressure is very real.I then break down Arne Slot's full pre-match press conference ahead of Sunderland. He describes this as the toughest season of his managerial career, admits the adaptation to Premier League and Champions League football cost points, insists Champions League qualification is non-negotiable, and addresses the right-back crisis, late goals conceded, and questions over selection decisions. I go through every key quote and give a clear verdict on what it all means.The Mail Stand returns with an email claiming a critical piece on Slot is ready to drop, whispers of supporter meetings, and speculation around Alonso and Nagelsmann. My AI assistant Dave separates mood from substance and assess what's actually credible.I also read out your emails — from squad depth concerns and top four anxiety to all-time Liverpool XIs and podcast ideas — plus today's transfer rumours and what (if anything) Liverpool fans should care about.Honest reaction. No hysteria. No spin. Just where we are right now.YNWA.

We're back with another episode of I Had Trials Once and this time we're joined by former Rochdale, Burton, Scunthorpe & Salford midfielder Matty Lund. Matty sits down with Gaz & Jord to discuss everything from his time as an academy player at Stoke to the importance of early loan moves and playing games. The lads start the pod talking in depth about Matty's time at Salford City, working with the class of 92 and the disappointing end to his time. Matty then talks us through his early loan moves in football including Hereford were the manager was also the physio, playing under Paul Dickov at Oldham & crazy Bilel Mohsni. The trio then chat in about Matty's time at Rochdale, the incredible strength of the squad & why he had to leave to chase his Northern Ireland dream. Matty then talks about how his struggles at Burton and why a poor relationship with manager Nigel Clough didn't help his situation before handing in a transfer request to move to Scunthorpe. Finally they end the pod talking about making the wrong moves in football, the best player Matty has ever shared a pitch with and what he's up to since retiring. WE'RE DOING ANOTHER LIVE SHOW!

13 unbeaten and five wins on the spin. It's been a golden period for United. Now that we're owners of the longest unbeaten run in the EFL so far this season, can we continue it up in Lancashire? Jules and Tom previewed the tricky trip up to Oldham, who have the second best defence in the league, as well as reviewing the last-gasp 1-0 win against Shrewsbury at the Abbey on Tuesday.Subscribe to the Coconut Tier to get:

Ouch. A late winner conceded to the ten men of Barnet hurts. Oldham lost for the first time in seven games to the side that finished 30 points ahead of us in the National League last season. It was an entertaining game but not the result we wanted - is your glass half-empty or half-full?

Lydia Oldham didn't come from a traditional ultrarunning background. She started running during lockdown — running 1 mile runs, sprinting every 5K, and having no idea she'd one day be creating 300-mile running projects across countries.In this episode, Lydia breaks down how she built herself into someone capable of taking on massive, self-created challenges — including running solo across Portugal, completing a solo Speed Project, and most recently running 300 miles from London to Cornwall for charity.But this conversation isn't just about distance.It's about courage, self-belief, creativity, and redefining what's possible when you stop waiting for permission.We dive into:How Lydia went from struggling through short runs to creating multi-day ultrarunning projectsWhy self-created challenges can be more powerful than racesThe mindset shift that helped her stop fearing failureHow she mentally navigates dark moments during 300-mile effortsWhy enjoying your runs matters more than “grinding”How storytelling gives meaning to hard effortsWhy you don't need elite talent to do extraordinary thingsIf you've ever thought:“Could I do something bigger… or is that not for me?”This episode will change how you think about your limits — and what you're capable of building over time.SHOW LINKS:Register for our race, The Desert Peak Ultra 100K + 50K at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠desertpeakultra.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?

We're back with another episode of I Had Trials Once and this time we're joined by former Sheffield Wednesday, Port Vale, Livingston, Oldham, Torquay, Buxton, Matlock and current Curzon Ashton winger...JACK STOBBS Jack sits down to talk all things football from life at Sheffield Wednesday to the harsh reality of playing men's football. The lads start the pod with Jack discussing his decision to drop into semi-pro football for the first time in his career and why the transition has been much easier than anticipated. Jack then talks the lads through his early life in football playing for Sheffield Wednesday, tough tackles from David Prutton and having imposter syndrome when playing for the first team. The trio then chat in depth about the difficulties young players face when adapting to men's football, why the lower leagues are tougher than people think and do academy players carry too much ego? They then chat about Jack's time at Oldham and why despite being close off the pitch they couldn't make it work on the pitch and the feeling of suffering relegations and turmoil times at both Oldham & Torquay. The lads then discuss how Jack found his love for the game whilst playing non-league for both Matlock & Buxton, the challenges that came with playing in the National League North and why he isn't closing the door on full time football. Finally they end the pod talking about his life at Curzon Ashton, aspirations for the season and why there's such a good feel food factor around the place.

When Radical Candor exploded onto the business world in 2017, the story was that this book justified and celebrated the effectiveness of being an a-hole to your people. "Candor" was the code for "being mean," and it was all ok because it worked.Reading Radical Candor by Kim Scott, you get a much more nuanced (and useful) take on how to be an effective leader by challenging directly AND caring personally. This episode of the Books Applied Podcast is a fast-paced conversation with Brandi Oldham that hits on what Kim Scott actually said about Radical Candor and how to do it well. We get into the four traps to avoid when delivering radical candor and how to be an excellent communicator and leader.

As he approaches press night, we check in with award-winning actor Paul Hilton, who is getting his Scrooge on this Christmas at the Old Vic. He reflects on finding his own way into the iconic miser, and what drew him to Jack Thorne's adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic after initially turning the role down. More broadly, he reflects on his career: bringing The Inheritance to New York after its landmark London moment, and the work he did helping to save Oldham Coliseum. He also expresses a great desire to work on Hamlet Hail To The Thief with Thom Yorke once again – if ever the moment arose. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As the holidays roll around, and daylight retracts, the thoughts also cloud over to infuse the mind with a grayish motif. We're encouraged to gather our loved ones close and practice gratitude for life's bounty. But, what if life's gifts have been obscured by the overwhelming influence of a mortal depression, a reflection of the disconnect between what we see around us - (disease, deprivation, tyranny, man's inhumanity to man, etc.) - and, the opposing commercial messages which exhort us to joyfully consume? Is this dark attitude the result of an imbalance of chemicals in the brain which can be easily adjusted by the ingestion of a pill? Or, is the undertow into hopelessness something more fundamental - an irreconcilable part of our genetic makeup - a part of life we just have to stoically accept and get on with? Great artists reckon with these impulses by creating profound music. Today we celebrate two of the most striking practitioners of this heroic enterprise: Will Oldham and Nick Drake.WILL OLDHAMI See a Darkness is a masterpiece of simple straight talk about the things most of us never say. It expresses an honest representation of the apprehension that a sensitive soul feels, yet mostly keeps to themself about the inevitability of the abyss. Death walks beside us at all times, and, it helps to staunch the bleeding of fear by keeping our blindfolds on. But, sometimes, there is an urgency to share these thoughts with a friend or a counselor, and the monologue of this song invites us into that private conversation. It packs an overwhelming punch. Johnny Cash also interpreted this song near the end of his life as everything in his being boiled down to the basics. Bonnie Prince Billy, aka Will Oldham is a DIY, Kentucky based actor-musician with a diverse resume, featuring projects with many collaborators. He's a married man with a child, and perhaps all this inter-activity has grounded him and kept him productive. This makes sense - there is raw boned sense of the practical inherent in his style that complements the mystical. NICK DRAKEThe doomed, etherial Nick Drake was not so lucky. He stood apart, and was other-worldly from the beginning, always uncomfortable in his own skin. His recorded output was sparse, and number of his performances minimal, yet profound in their influence. Dead at 26 from an overdose of antidepressants, Nick didn't live long enough to see the reach that resonates with his work today, 50 years after his passing. River Man, in 5/4 time plucked on a nylon string guitar, abetted by a serene string arrangement by Harry Robertson, is a mysterious descent into the deep waters of associative imagery. Nothing is overtly stated, but the character of Betty and the narrator going to see the River Man who has the answer to the meaning of life puts me in mind of the Millais' painting of drowned Ophelia, floating in the river, surrounded by flowers. At peace at last.

The "Tom On One" odyssey continues this week, with firm fan favourite and all round good lad, Danny Barrett off The Crash Mats. BAz is treating us to tales about songs that came out in the years he turned 18, 21, 30 and 40. Seriously good variety this time, so you don't want to miss it!We cover the Olympics, films we can quote, former colleagues with unfortunate names and theres a very near faux pas right at the beginning. There's also Crash Mats news and gig planning LIVE on the air.Songs this time are from: Misfits, We Three Kings, Dwarves, Frenzal Rhomb, FIDLAR and The Northern Boys.

This week we sit down with Kevin Fitzpatrick, a member of the Oldham Rugby League Heritage Trust, to talk about his documentary on Oldham's Hall of Fame.

Our first Professor, our first Dover sole... and our second Brian Cox.  Professor Brian Cox is a British physicist, broadcaster, writer and professor of particle physics. You will know Brian from his TV work on shows including Horizon, The Planets and Solar System alongside his BBC Radio 4 programme, The Infinite Monkey Cage.  Brian, who was born in Oldham, joins us to blow Nick and Angela's minds and chat about his new stage show, Emergence. Emergence, which explores the universe and cosmic evolution, is a HUGE production involving a giant display screen able to bring out-of-this-world shots to life. Tickets are available now for the world tour.  This episode is powered by curiosity, including Brian's own desire to learn how to cook Dover sole. Step forward Angela Hartnett who takes Brian under her wing at the counter to help create our dish of cider-steamed Dover sole & clams. This is paired with a glass of Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, Domaine Gérard Thomas, celebrating Brian's love of wine and, in particular, a white Burgundy.  Our biggest questions get answered across this chat. From figuring out how taste works to the challenges of life on Mars... and what is it about porridge that Brian Cox just can't get on board with.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and, new for this season, on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact dish@waitrose.co.uk Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions

Today is all about mega presences—performances with so much character, life, and musicality breathed into them by their actors that they seem to haunt an entire film and stick with you long after the credits have rolled and the house lights have come on. And we are thrilled beyond words to be joined by a one-of-one artist, the great Will Oldham! Jumping off from a rather intense skydiving scene in To the White Sea, Will talks to us about how you can craft a performance by drawing on formative experiences and memories of people you once knew. He also tells us about how you can perform for an audience by in some sense becoming the audience, and brings awesome insights to all of the Coens films we cover, often bringing in counterpoint scenes from other films that unlock the richness of the performances. Special thanks to Rebecca Bulnes and her grandmother Maria for helping us with the Spanish translation of a pivotal moment in Blood Simple in a brand new segment called To the White Sea: The Latin Beat. Coens Covered: No Country for Old Men, Fargo, The Man Who Wasn't There, Blood Simple, The Big Lebowski, Burn After Reading, True Grit, Inside Llewyn Davis Plus: Jackass 3D, Minnie and Moskowitz, Longlegs, One Battle After Another, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada Want to join the study group?

Steve Oldham is CEO of Captura. Captura develops Direct Ocean Capture (DOC) technology that removes CO₂ from seawater, triggering the ocean to draw more CO₂ from the air to rebalance. With CO₂ concentrations ~150× higher in seawater than air, Captura's closed-loop process uses electrodialysis to create acid and base on site—no added chemicals, no waste—and can run largely on off-peak renewable energy. Oldham, former CEO of Carbon Engineering, contrasts DOC with DAC, discusses MRV and crediting, deployment pathways (onshore, barges, vessels), his company's pilot progress in Hawaii, and why pragmatic scale-up and licensing partnerships matter for gigaton carbon removal. Episode recorded on Aug 28, 2025 (Published on Sept 30, 2025)In this episode, we cover: [02:17] Steve's path from Carbon Engineering to Captura[05:30] How Direct Ocean Capture actually works[09:10] Closed-loop design with no waste products[10:14] Using electrodialysis to split acid and base[13:12] Deployment options: onshore plants, barges, vessels[14:39] Running on off-peak and curtailed renewables[16:30] Measuring and crediting carbon drawdown[21:53] Balancing CO₂ use vs. permanent storage[25:22] Policy gaps like 45Q for ocean removal[35:15] Captura's Kona pilot built in 70 days[37:33] First commercial project expected in Europe Enjoyed this episode?
