Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack Workers Rights Champions, Matt McGranaghan and Martin McMahon discuss the An Post Bogus self-employment case that is dragging along (delayed again) in the High Court. This is potentially another seismic case on the abuse of employment status by yet another semi-state business. The historic nature of the (alleged?) wrongdoing means that An Post has everything to lose, and its not great for the Revenue Commissioners either.

In March 2010, the small Yorkshire village of Melsonby awoke to the kind of horror rarely seen outside the pages of crime fiction.40-year-old Diana Garbutt was found bludgeoned to death in her bed, and within minutes, a robbery was reported at the village Post Office just downstairs. The timeline made little sense, and the evidence raised more questions than answers.What followed was a trial full of contradictions, a marriage laid bare and a community left divided. But over a decade later, some believe the real story has yet to be told - and that the justice system may have gotten it very, very wrong.Join my Patreon community at patreon.com/britishmurders for exclusive perks, including early access to ad-free episodes, bonus episodes and content, exciting giveaways, and welcome goodies!Follow me on social media:Facebook | British Murders with Stuart BluesInstagram | @britishmurdersTikTok | @britishmurdersJoin the private Facebook group:British Murders Podcast - Discussion GroupVisit my website:britishmurders.comIntro music:David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'davidjohnbrady.comDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

On the day of episode 99's release, it's exactly 100 years since the death on 17 April 1925 of Godfrey Isaacs - Managing Director of the Marconi Company. More than that - new evidence shows that he came up with and championed the idea of the one BBC. For years, the British government (via the Post Office) has been credited with the plan for a singular British broadcaster. But lost meeting minutes have been rediscovered.... The academic who found these minutes - misplaced for decades - is David Prosser of the University of Bristol. He joins us to tell us about the 18 May 1922 meeting where Godfrey Isaacs proposed that the Marconi Company share patents and collaborate with its rivals to form one (British) Broadcasting Company. And Robert Godfrey - Isaacs' great-great-grandson - joins us to give new insights into the life of this under-heralded pioneer in the ways of wireless. Hear tales of the Marconi Scandal, Titanic, business wrangling, broadcasting innovation, battles with the press, and a life cut short. There's a lot to tell, so this is a longer episode than usual - sorry! Actually I'm not sorry... these chaps know their stuff, and it's an incredible tale. . SHOWNOTES: Read David Prosser's article: 'Marconi Proposes: Why it's time to rethink the birth of the BBC' - on the University of Bristol website: https://research-information.bris.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/193478467/Prosser_Marconi_Proposes_Why_it_s_time_to_rethink_the_birth_of_the_BBC_26_Sep_2018.pdf Original music is by Will Farmer.

In October, Councillor Shane Talty tendered his resignation as Postmaster of Lahinch Post Office, citing the expected financial challenges of An Post's decision to transfer mail and sorting services to Ennis. The office on Main Street will soon close and will relocate to Kennedy's Spar in the coming weeks, once the store completes the necessary refurbishments. Owner Robert Kennedy has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan he believes government policy is not protecting the interests of rural Ireland.

Making a change to zero trust can be accomplished by being concerned about the humans involved, taking advantage of AI, and understanding risks. Heather Dyer from the U.S. Post Office cites some remarkable statistics. They have over 600,000 employees and 1,000 applications. To change to Zero Trust, she had to make sure everyone understood the importance of the shift. Once the cultural shift is established, a tech leader can emphasize anomalous behavior and end-point detection. With the number of people and apps in the U.S. Post Office, Heather Dyer had to use AI to continuously monitor the system for compliance with Zero Trust best practices. Heather Dyer and Prem Jawani agree that any successful deployment of Zero Trust must include a thorough understanding of risk. Once you establish a reliable, authoritative source to track who has access to critical assets, Zero Trust permissions can be assembled. The discussion also touched on integrating zero trust with cloud solutions and fostering collaboration with external partners.

The history of the United States Postal Service as it plays out in the streets of New York City -- from the first post road to the first postage stamps. From the most beautiful post office in the country to the forgotten Gilded Age landmark that was once considered the ugliest post office.The postal service has always served as the country's circulatory system, linking the densest urban areas to the most rural outposts, a necessary link in moments when the country feels very far apart in other ways. The early American colonies knew this. Benjamin Franklin knew this The Founding Fathers who placed the postal service within the Constitution knew this.And inventions such as the stagecoach, the steamship, the railroad, the pneumatic tube and even the electric car have helped keep the mail steadily flowing over the centuries.New York has even played a pivotal role in the development of the American mail service, from the creation of the Boston Post Road (the first mail road which snaked through Manhattan and the Bronx) to the first mail boxes. Even the first postage stamps were sold in New York -- within former church-turned-post office in lower Manhattan.Why are there so many post offices from the 1930s? Why is New York's largest post office next to Penn Station? And why does New York City have so many individual ZIP codes? And who, pray tell, is Barnabas Bates?Visit our website for more information and imagesMore information here on the Bowery Boys: Gilded Age Weekend This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon

Is British TV in crisis? On the surface, it looks like a golden age – hits like Bridgerton, Baby Reindeer, and Adolescence are winning international acclaim. But behind the scenes, it's a different story. Traditional broadcasters are losing ground to streamers, and homegrown hits like Mr Bates vs. The Post Office could struggle to get commissioned as budgets tighten. To break it all down Scott Bryan, TV critic and writer of the Worth Watching Substack, joins Alex von Tunzelmann in The Bunker to look at the current state of British TV and find out what can be done to revive the industry.

Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
Beginning with the so-called Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006, which required the postal service to hold billions of dollars in reserve to fund retirement benefits for workers who have not yet been born, and then the sell-off of post offices, cuts to the workforce and price hikes, the ground for privatization of the US Postal Service, as was done in Canada and the United Kingdom, has been laid. Clearing the FOG speaks with Annie Norman, a leader of the Save the Post Office Coalition, about the current effort to begin privatizing the postal service in incremental steps. Norman also discusses the upcoming national days of action to protect our post offices and the People's Postal Agenda, a program to strengthen the postal service and add more services for people.

When Gerald Groff took his job at the Post Office in 2012, taking Sundays off wasn't an issue. USPS didn't deliver on Sundays. Then about a decade ago Amazon decided people simply had to have their gadgets and groceries delivered on Sundays and hired USPS to help. Suddenly Groff had a choice: keep his job or his convictions. He decided to try for both–and the case is still not settled, exactly.Today on Doubletake, a special legal episode about a mailman, his faith, and the byzantine legal rules that define religious liberty in this country.Support WORLD News Group at wng.org/donate

DRILL BABY DRILL: Trump Interior Secretary Doug Burgum Already Revoking Biden Climate Change Rules That Blocked Drilling for Energy Former North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, who was confirmed as Trump's Interior Secretary last week, is already clearing the way for Trump's domestic energy production agenda. Burgum is revoking rules Joe Biden put in place which prevented drilling on certain lands due to climate change. Increasing energy production is going to touch nearly every part of Trump's agenda. It's going to help the economy, increase national security by decreasing our dependence on hostile nations, and make energy more affordable for millions of Americans. This is excellent news. The Washington Free Beacon reported: Trump Admin Reopens Millions of Acres for Oil Drilling in Rollback of Biden Climate Agenda The Trump administration is reopening oil and gas leasing across hundreds of millions of acres of federal lands and waters that were locked up by the Biden administration. In a series of orders Monday evening, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum revoked Biden-era actions that blocked drilling across 625 million acres of federal waters nationwide—an area that is equivalent in size to a third of the continental United States—in the 19-million-acre Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska and in the state's 23-million-acre National Petroleum Reserve.
