Hello and welcome back to another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's all about music isn't it, obviously.On this week's show Merlin Alderslade joins Steve to take a detailed look at the festival season here in the UK. We chat about what might be able to take Glastonbury's gold medal for best festival during the festivals fallow year. We look at the line ups at Reading and Leeds, Latitude, Download, All Points East, Lovebox, BST, Bloodstock, TRSMT, Mighty Hoopla, Outbreak, Isle of Wight, Boomtown, Parklife, Bearded Theory and a few more to determine where you should be spending your money as a festival punter.
Mucky Christmas songs, mucky misheard lyrics, mucky-mouthed beach ball tirades... oh, and some results. This one also deserves its own extras playlist. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In this episode, we sit down with Sasha Lord, the founder of Warehouse Project and Parklife Festival, who went from running illegal raves to building the biggest metropolitan festival in the UK and becoming Greater Manchester's first Night Time Economy Advisor. Sasha breaks down what it really takes to survive in the hospitality industry, from handling petrol bombs and gang intimidation in the early days to navigating police raids, environmental health shutdowns, and complaints from Strangeways Prison. He explains why the nighttime economy is on its knees, how the national insurance increase is destroying venues, and why we're losing one pub every single day in the UK. We discuss the relationship between music, drugs, and nightlife, why Instagram and TikTok are killing dance floors, and how the energy in clubs has completely changed. Sasha shares stories from the Hacienda, the explosion of house music and ecstasy, and why the best promoters today are the ones who know every staff member's name and stay sober whilst everyone else is partying. He opens up about selling Warehouse Project and Parklife, why he walked away at 50, and how taking a year off to be a full time dad gave him clarity on what actually matters. We also dive into his legal battle with Matt Hancock during the pandemic, why the 10pm curfew and scotch egg rule were absolute nonsense, and how he forced the government to reverse both decisions in the High Court. If you're trying to build something from nothing, navigating a tough industry, or wondering whether success is worth the sacrifice, this episode will give you the unfiltered truth from someone who's lived it all.

Blur's third album, 1994's 'Parklife', was released the same year as Oasis' debut 'Definitely Maybe'. And while many saw this as Britpop's answer to a Beatles/Stones rivalry, none other than Ray Davies himself considered Blur - and especially Parklife - as the heir apparent to ANOTHER classic British band, The Kinks. This week's returning guest Corey duBrowa once again brings the goods as he and Rob attempt to unpack this UK Classic. Songs discussed in this episode: Girls & Boys (Blur cover) - Terry Edwards and The Scapegoats; Love You (Syd Barrett cover) - Graham Coxon; For Tomorrow, Country House, Sing - Blur; Step On - Happy Mondays; This Is How It Feels - Inspiral Carpets; She's So High - Blur; Love Me For A Reason - The Osmonds; Right Here, Right Now - Jesus Jones; Girls & Boys, Tracy Jacks - Blur; David Watts - The Kinks; Helicopter - XTC; End Of A Century, Parklife - Blur; Mad John - Small Faces; Bank Holiday, Badhead - Blur; Connection - Elastica; The Debt Collector, Far Out, To The End - Blur; My Mistakes Were Made For You - The Last Shadow Puppets; You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra; To The End (French Version), London Loves, Trouble In The Message Centre, Clover Over Dover, Magic America, Charmless Man, Jubilee - Blur; 20th Century Boy - T-Rex; Feel Good Inc - Gorillaz; This Is A Low, Lot 105 - Blur; Waterloo Sunset - Ray Davies and Damon Albarn

Not technically qualified, but we'd probably still trust him in an emergency!Then Phil Dunster came in to chat about brand new American comedy series Rooster and even played a game of Reverse Words with us (which he's actually a mega fan of!) and developed a slightly worrying attachment to a bell he found in the studio.After announcing The Wonder Stuff's 40th Anniversary tour, frontman Miles Hunt joined us in the studio, and it turns out “busy” doesn't even begin to cover it.

Fluent Fiction - Catalan: Jordi's Swan Showdown: A Picnic Tale of Triumph and Laughter Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2026-03-04-08-38-20-ca Story Transcript:Ca: En un dia radiant de primavera al Parc de la Ciutadella, el sol brillava en un cel blau immaculat.En: On a radiant spring day at the Parc de la Ciutadella, the sun shone in an immaculate blue sky.Ca: Els ocells cantaven, les fulles dels arbres es movien suaument amb la brisa, i tot el parc estava ple de vida.En: The birds sang, the leaves of the trees moved gently with the breeze, and the entire park was full of life.Ca: La gespa era fresca sota els peus, i el murmuri dels visitants creava una melodia de fons agradable.En: The grass was fresh underfoot, and the murmur of visitors created a pleasant background melody.Ca: Jordi estava eufòric i alhora nerviós.En: Jordi was both euphoric and nervous.Ca: Avui era el dia del seu pícnic amb Martí i Alba, la nova companya de classe que volia impressionar.En: Today was the day of his picnic with Martí and Alba, the new classmate he wanted to impress.Ca: Alba era simpàtica, amb un somriure encantador que il·luminava la seva cara.En: Alba was friendly, with a charming smile that lit up her face.Ca: Martí era el seu fidel amic, sempre despreocupat i amb ganes de passar una bona estona.En: Martí was his loyal friend, always carefree and eager to have a good time.Ca: Amb una cistella plena de delícies, es van asseure a prop del llac on els ànecs nedaven.En: With a basket full of delights, they sat near the lake where ducks were swimming.Ca: Les flors estaven en plena floració, i l'ambient era perfecte per a una reunió amable.En: The flowers were in full bloom, and the setting was perfect for a friendly gathering.Ca: Jordi, tot i ser amant dels ocells, tenia un secret que mantenia ocult: li feien por els cignes.En: Although Jordi was a bird lover, he had a secret he kept hidden: he was afraid of swans.Ca: Però avui, res podia arruïnar la seva intenció de passar un bon dia... o almenys això pensava.En: But today, nothing could ruin his intention of having a good day... or so he thought.Ca: Mentre gaudien dels entrepans i les galetes, un cigne majestuós però amb aire entremaliat va començar a aproximar-se.En: While they enjoyed the sandwiches and cookies, a majestic swan with a mischievous air began to approach.Ca: Amb els ulls fixos en la seva cistella de menjar, l'animal es va moure amb decisió cap al grup, movent les seves grans ales amb autoritat.En: With its eyes fixed on their food basket, the animal moved decisively towards the group, flapping its large wings with authority.Ca: Martí, sense adonar-se de la tensió de Jordi, va riure.En: Martí, unaware of Jordi's tension, laughed.Ca: "Mira, un cigne vol sumar-se a la festa!" va exclamar.En: "Look, a swan wants to join the party!" he exclaimed.Ca: Alba el va observar encuriosida, mentre Jordi intentava mantenir la calma aparent.En: Alba watched curiously, while Jordi tried to maintain an outward calm.Ca: El cigne, juganer i una mica descarat, intentava picotejar una de les galetes.En: The swan, playful and a bit cheeky, tried to peck at one of the cookies.Ca: Jordi va respirar profundament.En: Jordi took a deep breath.Ca: Sabia que marxar hauria estat perdre davant el seu temor, i no volia mostrar debilitat davant d'Alba.En: He knew that leaving would mean losing to his fear, and he didn't want to show weakness in front of Alba.Ca: Reunint tot el seu coratge, es va aixecar, encara que les cames li tremolaven.En: Gathering all his courage, he stood up, even though his legs were trembling.Ca: Amb veu segura però serena, va agitar les mans cap al cigne.En: With a sure but calm voice, he waved his hands at the swan.Ca: El seu cor bategava amb força.En: His heart was pounding.Ca: "Vés, bonic, avui no hi ha menjar per a tu", va dir amb un somriure tens.En: "Go on, lovely, there's no food for you today," he said with a tense smile.Ca: El cigne va fer un grall de descontentament, però va retrocedir lentament.En: The swan let out a dissatisfied honk but retreated slowly.Ca: Després d'uns moments de tensió, es va girar i va marxar cap al llac.En: After a few tense moments, it turned and headed back to the lake.Ca: Jordi es va asseure de nou, encara tremolant una mica, però amb un sentiment de triomf intern.En: Jordi sat back down, still trembling a bit, but with a feeling of internal triumph.Ca: Martí i Alba el van aplaudir entre rialles, divertits per la situació.En: Martí and Alba applauded him amidst laughter, amused by the situation.Ca: "Quin heroi!", va dir Alba amb un to burleta però amable.En: "What a hero!" said Alba in a teasing but kind tone.Ca: Jordi va somriure, avergonyit però satisfet.En: Jordi smiled, embarrassed but satisfied.Ca: El seu cor es va calmar, i l'ambient es va omplir de rialles i conversa animada.En: His heart calmed down, and the atmosphere filled with laughter and lively conversation.Ca: A mesura que el sol baixava lleugerament i el dia avançava, Jordi va sentir que havia superat una part d'ell mateix.En: As the sun dipped slightly and the day progressed, Jordi felt he had surpassed a part of himself.Ca: No només havia impressionat Alba, sinó que també havia guanyat algun grau de confiança que mai havia pensat possible.En: Not only had he impressed Alba, but he had also gained a degree of confidence he had never thought possible.Ca: El pícnic va continuar amb alegria, convertint aquella anècdota en una història divertida que recordaria sempre.En: The picnic continued with joy, turning that anecdote into a funny story he would always remember.Ca: En aquell racó frondós del parc, Jordi sabia que havia canviat, i que fins i tot la por més gran podia ser vençuda amb valentia.En: In that lush corner of the park, Jordi knew he had changed, and that even the greatest fear could be overcome with courage.

Hello and welcome to our first official We Will Rank You rerun. You may have noticed that we've had to reupload some old episodes recently that were mistakenly taken down for copyright reasons. I looked at our analytics for the first time in ages and noticed that we had the biggest month we've ever had just because of one extra old episode I'd put back up. I mean, I'm already slowly putting up all of the old episodes on Youtube with fun visuals. I guess I can put up an oldie here too.Jim chose the first one to bring back and he picked episode seven on the self-titled debut of the Stone Roses from 2021. He chose to rank each song in the order that they're on the album, which we only did one other time, for Blur's Parklife, before the others agreed that it was anticlimactic when we named our favorite song in the first few minutes. I told ya. At an hour and 57 minutes, it was our longest episode to date but a couple of episodes later, Sinead passed it by one minute and eventually our 1983 wildcard episode was our longest at nearly three hours. For years, this was our most listened to episode until it was recently taken over by our Wildcard Live Album show.Jim writes: "The hosts agree (I think) that this is the group's favorite album they've ever ranked. I maintain my album picks are the best. No one comes close." He's not right about his picks being the best but this episode probably is in a very close race with Violent Femmes for our biggest surefire lovefest, except for, spoiler alert, Dan's take on Adored, which became an oft-repeated anecdote. Here it tis.Jim's lemony-fresh pick is by FAR the album that the four of us have all loved the most. That combined with Adam being the singer for a ridiculous Stone Roses coverband means that there was a LOT for us to say, resulting in our longest episode yet. However, it's a FUN one. For fans of podcasts that go track-by-track instead of our usual countdown, today is your lucky day for a special episode on this 1989 classic. Special guests include 33 1/3 Stone Roses author Alex Green from Stereo Embers podcast and F#!kin' In The Bushes DJ Daniel Sant!

Fluent Fiction - Norwegian: Melting Dreams: Friendship and Snow Sculptures in Frognerparken Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2025-05-09-22-34-02-no Story Transcript:No: Det var en solfylt vårdag i Frognerparken.En: It was a sunny spring day in Frognerparken.No: Snøen lå igjen i små flekker på den grønne gressplenen.En: The snow lay in small patches on the green grass lawn.No: Lars sto midt i parken med hender klissete av smeltet snø.En: Lars stood in the middle of the park with hands sticky from melted snow.No: Han stirret på det som skulle bli en stor skulptur.En: He stared at what was supposed to become a large sculpture.No: Ingrid sto ved siden av ham og prøvde å skjule et skeptisk smil.En: Ingrid stood beside him trying to hide a skeptical smile.No: Simen, derimot, kunne ikke dy seg.En: Simen, on the other hand, couldn't resist.No: "Tro du det vil stå før lunsj?En: "Do you think it will stand before lunch?"No: " ertet Simen, mens han gestikulerte mot det usikre tårnet av snø.En: teased Simen, gesturing towards the precarious tower of snow.No: Lars gjorde sitt beste for å ignorere ham.En: Lars did his best to ignore him.No: Han visste at Simen mente det godt, men han ønsket virkelig å imponere Ingrid.En: He knew that Simen meant well, but he really wanted to impress Ingrid.No: "Det blir bra, jeg lover," sa Lars med ett glimt av overbevisning.En: "It'll be great, I promise," said Lars with a glimmer of conviction.No: Han bøyde seg ned og formet snøen med ivrige hender.En: He bent down and shaped the snow with eager hands.No: Ingrid, som var vant til Lars' optimisme, bøyde seg ned for å hjelpe.En: Ingrid, who was used to Lars' optimism, bent down to help.No: Hun strøk forsiktig over skulpturen, prøvde å redde formen fra å smelte bort under solen.En: She gently caressed the sculpture, trying to save the shape from melting away under the sun.No: "Lars, kanskje vi kan hjelpe?En: "Lars, maybe we can help?No: To hender ekstra vil gjøre stor forskjell," sa Ingrid.En: Two extra hands will make a big difference," said Ingrid.No: Lars nølte.En: Lars hesitated.No: Han ønsket å klare det selv.En: He wanted to manage on his own.No: Men etter å ha kastet et blikk mot solen, som blinket varmt over hodet, nikket han.En: But after glancing at the sun, which flickered warmly overhead, he nodded.No: "Ja, greit.En: "Yes, alright.No: La oss gjøre det sammen.En: Let's do it together."No: "Med Simen og Ingrid ved hans side, arbeidet de tre iherdig.En: With Simen and Ingrid by his side, the three of them worked diligently.No: De lo og snakket mens de formet snøen.En: They laughed and talked while shaping the snow.No: Solen ble sterkere, og snøen begynte å smelte litt for raskt.En: The sun grew stronger, and the snow started to melt a bit too quickly.No: "Aiya!En: "Aiya!No: Den del faller!En: That part is falling!"No: " ropte Simen plutselig.En: Simen suddenly shouted.No: Lars snudde seg og så til sin forskrekkelse at venstre side av skulpturen hadde rast sammen.En: Lars turned and saw, to his dismay, that the left side of the sculpture had collapsed.No: Øyeblikket av panikk vekslet raskt til latter da han innså det komiske i situasjonen.En: The moment of panic quickly turned to laughter when he realized the comedy of the situation.No: "Det er et abstrakt verk," foreslo Ingrid lattermildt.En: "It's an abstract piece," suggested Ingrid with a laugh.No: "Ikke alt trenger å være bokstavelig.En: "Not everything needs to be literal."No: "De tre vennene trakk seg tilbake for å betrakte det som var igjen av skulpturen.En: The three friends stepped back to admire what was left of the sculpture.No: Lars kunne ikke la være å le.En: Lars couldn't help but laugh.No: Han så på vennene sine og innså hvor mye glede de hadde delt i forsøket.En: He looked at his friends and realized how much joy they had shared in the attempt.No: "Skal vi la denne stå som den er, og gå etter iskrem?En: "Shall we leave this as it is and go for ice cream?"No: " foreslo Simen, som allerede begynte å tenke på hvilken smak han skulle velge.En: Simen suggested, already starting to think about which flavor to choose.No: Lars nikket, lettet over ikke å være alene i dette.En: Lars nodded, relieved not to be alone in this.No: Troen han hadde hatt på sine evner, overflømmet nå med takknemlighet for vennskapet.En: The belief he had in his abilities was now overflowing with gratitude for the friendship.No: "Ja, la oss gjøre det," sa han.En: "Yes, let's do that," he said.No: Da de gikk mot den nærliggende iskremboden, så Lars over skulderen sin.En: As they walked towards the nearby ice cream stand, Lars looked over his shoulder.No: Skulpturen sto der, ufullstendig men minneverdig, akkurat som dagen i Frognerparken.En: The sculpture stood there, incomplete but memorable, just like the day in Frognerparken.No: Han smilte til Ingrid og Simen.En: He smiled at Ingrid and Simen.No: Denne dagen vil han aldri glemme, ikke på grunn av snøen, men på grunn av vennenes støtte.En: He would never forget this day, not because of the snow, but because of the support from friends.No: Og så fortsatte de gjennom parken, mot nye eventyr, latter og iskrem i vårens varme omfavnelse.En: And so they continued through the park, towards new adventures, laughter, and ice cream in the warm embrace of spring.

The adverts are not chosen by us, but played automatically depending on the platform you listen through (Apple Podacsts, Spotify, etc) and the country you live in. The adverts may even be different if you listen to the story twice. We have had a handful of instances where an advert has played that is not suitable for a family audience, despite the podcast clearly being labelled for children. If you're concerned about an advert you hear, please contact the platform you are listening to directly. Spotify, in particular, has proven problematic in the past, for both inappropriate adverts and the volume at which the adverts play. If you find this happening, please let Spotify know via their Facebook customer care page. As creators, we want your child's experience to be a pleasurable one. Running adverts is necessary to allow us to operate, but please do consider the premium subscription service as an alternative – it's advert free.

Melting ice is usually bad news, but this place in Alaska has turned from frozen to flourishing in just 200 years. Nestled in southeast Alaska, the stunning and famous Glacier Bay National Park is often called a “living laboratory.” Scientists from all over the world come here to study ecological succession: the step-by-step return of plants, insects, forests and animals. It’s a unique place to do that because just a couple hundred years ago, this whole landscape was covered in ice. But then, the ice started melting, uncovering a clean slate for nature to show us how she creates a flourishing ecosystem. On this episode of THE WILD, Chris time travels through Glacier Bay National Park to discover how fast biodiversity can build when nature is left alone, in the surprising spectacle of life after ice. This show would not be possible without listener support. You can help us continue to create this special immersive storytelling by donating at kuow.org/donate/thewild. Thank you. For some great photographs and clips from our journey through the national parks, check out our Instagram @thewildpod and @chrismorganwildlife. THE WILD is a production of KUOW, Chris Morgan Wildlife, and the NPR Network. This episode was produced by Lucy Soucek, written by Christopher Preston and edited by Jim Gates.
