In the summer of 1977, single mother Margaret Hodgson called the police to her council estate apartment in Enfield, London to report that she and her two daughters, Janet and Peggy, had seen furniture move in the apartment and were hearing strange noises coming from within the walls. That simple albeit unusual call set in motion a chain of events that would thrust the unassuming Hodgson family into the center of a debate about the existence of the supernatural and forever associate them with one of England's most notorious paranormal cases, the Enfield poltergeist.Over the course of roughly eighteen months, the family claimed they were subjected to a variety of supernatural harassment that ranged from moving furniture and knocking in the walls to disembodied voices and even involuntary levitation. Soon after the report was made to the police, the story attracted a variety of news outlets and paranormal investigators, all determined to either prove the case a genuine poltergeist or a hoax perpetrated by two adolescent attention-seeking girls.Nearly fifty years later, the case remains controversial among skeptics and believers, all of whom want to know what exactly did happen in the Hodgson's apartment and who—or what—is to blame for the disturbances.Thank you to the Amazing Dave White (of BRING ME THE AXE PODCAST) for research and writing assistance! ReferencesAmin, Meghna. 2022.

Dive into the spectacle behind Claw King—now officially the world's largest claw machine. Standing 17.16 ft long, nearly 13 ft tall, and over 8 ft wide, this mechanical marvel spans a massive 1,761 cubic feet, towering over its predecessor in Florida. Built by PlayFair at the iconic TOPS viewpoint in Cebu City, Claw King isn't just a world record—it's a vibrant symbol of Filipino creativity and cultural pride. Designed by local artist-engineer Kuya Magik, the project merges traditional perya (carnival) culture with modern entertainment to boost Cebu's tourism and global recognition. Measured on July 5, 2025, by Engr. Noel Aguilar Jr. to meet Guinness standards and officially certified on July 21, 2025, this feat took months of design work, 4,500+ screws, 100 meters of cabling—and just five days to assemble on site. This Week's Featured Hashtag#UnlikelyRollercoasterNamesOther Interesting ThingsWorld's Largest Claw MachineSend a text to The Ebone Zone!

Today we're diving into a controversial global power play: how China claims “developing nation” status at the WTO — and why that label is a big f*ing deal.** Even though China's the second-largest economy in the world, it still gets benefits meant for struggling nations. We break down how that status gives them trade advantages, longer timelines for environmental rules, subsidies, and why the U.S. and other countries are calling BS. We'll talk about the double standard China plays — acting like a superpower when it suits them, but claiming underdog status when the rules get tight. We'll also cover the WTO's broken system, why reform is so hard, and what this means for American workers, tariffs, and global trade.

Anyone identify with that expression?Are there only three types of Triggers - which need managing? Not sure about that, but Carolyn Springer knows better:1. Uncomfortable Associations2. Distressing Reminders3. True TriggersShe advocates splitting the problem up into those three types of triggers; work out a strategy for each, whilst asking if the Trigger is an Association, a Reminder or a True/Real/Emergency/Fight Flight Freeze type Trigger.https://www.carolynspring.com/three-types-of-trigger-three-techniques-for-taming/ Begin the process of empowering self with knowledge - from "learning to manage my critical self-talk and self-soothe rather than lacerate myself after being triggered was a key waymaker on my journey of recovery...."Remember the correct order.

Freshly returned from another bout of high pressure-negotiating, DA Federal Council chair Helen Zille unpacks what's been going on in negotiations with the ANC on forming a provincial government in Gauteng. In brief: the ANC needs cabinet seats to satisfy its various factions, but the DA refuses to “help the Gauteng ANC fix its own problems” so is demanding a cabinet split reflecting voters' will. Zille says unless her party it treated fairly, it will return to Gauteng's opposition benches. Critically, whatever happens in this province has no bearing on deals already struck with the ANC at the national level and in KZN. She spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

Is there a difference between God being over all things and God determining all things? If God takes away someone's ability to choose, how does God hold them responsible for their choices? Does God choose some people for salvation and others for destruction? God does not force people into a spirit of rejection, but He does force people into a place of decision.  Deut. 2, Romans 9, Genesis 25, and Exodus 9 all fit together in understanding God's way of salvation.

Fair Play: Unicorn or Reality? Can women truly ‘have it all' without having to ‘do it all'?   Eve Rodsky is a champion of gender equality and disability advocacy. Her aspirations growing up included being a hip-hop dancer for the New York Knicks, President of the United States, and Senator of New York. Today, she stresses the need for women to use their power to step out and into the world and for men to use their power to step into the home. The roles of men and women in the fifties and sixties are no longer appropriate in the present day, nor has it been for a long time. Defying this social construct is what has made this Harvard Law School graduate Step Out of Line on so many levels. 

In this episode of the Compendium, we delve into the chilling saga of 'The Enfield Poltergeist'. Set in a seemingly ordinary house in Enfield, North London in the late 1970s.  We explore the intense, real-life experiences of the Hodgson family, whose encounters with a poltergeist have made their story one of the most documented in paranormal history. We discuss some of the pictures and recordings presented and unravel some of the layers of this intriguing case.Together we question in a less than elloquent way the boundaries of reality and the supernatural. The Enfield Poltergeist not only challenges our understanding of the paranormal but also leaves us pondering how serious this case would be taken if it happened today.

Von August 1977 bis 1979 dokumentierten die paranormalen Forscher Maurice Grosse und Guy Lyon Playfair mit Fotoapparat und Tonbandgerät einen angeblichen Poltergeist, der die Familie Hodgson in ihrem Haus in Enfield heimsuchte. Im Mittelpunkt der paranormalen Ereignisse standen die elfjährige Janet und ihre zwei Jahre ältere Schwester Margaret. Grosse und Playfair gingen stets von der Authentizität der Ereignisse aus, auch wenn bald Zweifel an der Echtheit des Poltergeists aufkamen.

William Playfair war nicht nur ein schottischer Ingenieur und Unternehmer, er war auch Landspekulant, Autor und Erfinder einer Sache, die inzwischen allgegenwärtig ist, aber kaum mehr mit seinem Namen verbunden wird. Playfair ist der erste, der in seinen Publikationen Linien-, Balken- und Kreisdiagramme verwendete. Er gilt damit als der Begründer der modernen Infografik. Wir sprechen in der Folge über das unstete Leben von Playfair, der den Beginn der Französischen Revolution in Paris miterlebte, seinen berühmten Bruder, ein Star der Schottischen Aufklärung und darüber, warum er einige Zeit seines Lebens in Gefängnissen verbrachte. //Literatur - David Bellhouse: The Flawed Genius of William Playfair: The Story of the Father of Statistical Graphics //Aus unserer Werbung Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Today we have Chris Smith with us, a repeat offender here at the EUVC podcast. If you're a loyal long time listener you may recall Chris from our episode #14. Chris is a Managing Partner at Playfair, a generalist VC fund with a contrarian approach to pre-seed technology investing.Based in London, Playfair invests across the UK and Europe with an intentionally high conviction, low volume approach: making 6-8 investments a year and preserving time, capital and resource to help companies post-investment. Playfair is investing out of their $70m Fund 3 and has an established portfolio of **100+ companies across two funds including AeroCloud, Thought Machine, Andela, Mapillary, Recycleye and Orca AI.At Playfair, Chris is focused on pre-seed opportunities in the UK, Europe and Israel. He loves finding companies operating in overlooked sectors that are ripe for disruption and is particularly interested in autonomous transportation, business and industrial automation (especially through AI, ML and computer vision), HealthTech (except diagnostics and therapeutics) and B2B SaaS.

This is a LibriVox public domain recording. Writing at the end of the American Civil War, Verne weaves this story of a Scottish merchant who, in desperation at the interruption of the flow of Southern cotton due to the Union blockade, determines to build his own fast ship and run guns to the Confederates in exchange for the cotton piling up unsold on their wharves. His simple plan becomes complicated by two passengers who board his new ship under false pretenses in order to carry out a rescue mission, one which Capt. Playfair adopts as his own cause. This is going make the Rebels in Charleston rather unhappy with him. Sure, his new ship is fast - but can it escape the cannonballs of both North and South?
