This spatial sound-scene of dawn birdsong was captured from deep within the Kielder Forest, a huge wilderness of fir trees in the far north east of England almost at the border with Scotland. Along with almost all of our 257 episodes, this audio was produced by leaving the Lento box to record alone on-location , over a long span of time. By listening back to the captured audio we pick out sections that best convey the aural richness and presence of what it was like to be present in that place. These sections then become the episodes. What you hear sounds strikingly real. We designed the Lento box to capture sound binaurally, in an unprocessed and realistic way. It lets us experience that aural sense of being present in the landscape. Ear-witnesses to the authentic passing of time. This unaccompanied recording method means we can "hear there", but not "be there". Being there affects animals, birds and insects. By not physically being there they can behave normally. They move about, communicate, sing, forage, free of being alarmed or inhibited. Thanks to the Lento box, we are able to witness what it sounds like to be in their world. This recording was made last May, amongst tall fir trees growing beside a rough track that runs into the forest, East of the reservoir. Willow warblers are most prominent, along with wrens, song thrush and other woodland birds. A cuckoo is just audible at 15 minutes. At 38 minutes two heavy creatures lumber by and scramble into the cover of the trees. Hearing how they traverse the space reveals just how careful they are being to avoid detection. One of the main reasons we travelled up to the Kielder Forest last year was to capture the evocative sound of wind moving through vast areas of fir trees. While the wind was not particularly strong at the time of this recording, the tall fir trees can still be heard in the wind, and producing that richly restorative and evocative hushing sound. If you're new to us, before you listen, here's a few tips about getting the most out of listening to Radio Lento. If you have listened to a few episodes, please could you buy us a coffee?

Welcome back to Tinfoil Tales. On this episode I am joined by Dr. Kathleen Ball and we discuss her discovery of what she believes to be proof that the Knights Templar made its way to Brazil.Dr. Ball is a researcher, traveler, and explorer of ancient sites.After a life altering NDE in 1990, Kathleen began a career as a professional artist and art professor which spanned thirty years. Prior to retirement, she discovered a Templar Cave in Brazil while exploring the back country in the Chapada National Reserves. Kathleen then set out to create her film The Brazilian Templar Mystery which is the story of her discovery of this cave hidden in a remote area on the outskirts of a small Brazilian town, Alto Paraiso. A cave carved by the Knights Templar which has provided evidence of early Templar travel to the Americas. She then published the back story of this discovery, which became a quest and involved a series of initiations by fire, water, illness, and several dark nights of the soul.Kathleen has done extensive research into the history of the Templars and backtracked their trail through Portugal, France, Turkey, Scotland and England in a search for the true purpose of the order and what that means today. Her ongoing research trips include Malta, a return to Portugal the UK and France, Spain, Italy, Jerusalem, Ethiopia and Brazil.Dr. Ball is committed to revealing the true agenda of the Mysterious order of knights, known as the Knights Templar.Tinfoil Tales Podcast - Show Notes

Lockerbie: A Search for Truth Dr. Jim Swire searches for justice following the death of his daughter Flora in one of the worst air disasters in history: the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. On December 21, 1988, 259 passengers and crew, as well as 11 residents on the ground, were killed when a plane exploded over the quiet town of Lockerbie, Scotland. Thirteen years later, Abdelbaset al-Megrahi was convicted of the crime and later released on compassionate grounds. In the wake of Flora's death, Jim is named head of the UK victims' group and, after years of relentless campaigning, becomes instrumental in bringing Megrahi to trial. However, Jim's absolute trust in the justice system is sullied forever when he comes to believe, to his horror, that Megrahi could be innocent. As the truth shifts under Jim's feet, his life starts to crumble, losing his job and ignoring his living family for this crusade for truth and his desire to find those responsible for her death (TVNZ+ and TVNZ1 from Sunday). Friends Like Her In the wake of a catastrophic earthquake, a friendship between two women in Kaikoura turns toxic when a surrogacy deal goes wrong (Netflix). High Potential Morgan, a single mom with three kids and an exceptional mind, helps solve an unsolvable crime when she rearranges some evidence during her shift as a cleaner for the police department. When they discover she has a knack for putting things in order because of her high intellectual potential, she is brought on as a consultant to work with a by-the-book seasoned detective, Karadec. Together they form an unusual and unstoppable team (Disney+). LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on TFB's Behind the Gun Podcast, I'm thrilled to welcome back backcountry hunting veteran and founder of Spartan Precision Equipment, Mr. Rob Gearing. If you tuned in last time, you'll recall that Rob and I explored Spartan Precision's extensive range of bipods and tripods—renowned for their forward-thinking, modular design and dependable performance in tough conditions. But today, we're focusing on another one of Rob's driving passions: backcountry hunting. Backcountry hunting is one of the few hunting-related subjects I've been fascinated with in more recent years. Rob, has spent decades traveling the world—venturing into the rugged mountains of New Zealand, the sweeping plains of Africa, and the remote wilderness of Scotland—all in pursuit of challenging hunts. He's here to share the invaluable experience and insight he's gained along the way, shedding light on the essential gear, physical preparation, and mindset needed to thrive in some of the most demanding environments on Earth and combine it with the skills to bring home the kill. While Spartan Precision Equipment might be best known for their featherweight Javelin bipod—tipping the scales at just a few ounces—they also offer a broad lineup of versatile shooting supports, from the Sentinel tripod to the Davros head. Thanks to Rob's constant drive for innovation, these products are designed to help hunters stay agile and adaptable in unpredictable terrain. During our conversation, we'll touch on how his deep-rooted passion for hunting fuels the design process, and how he hopes these breakthroughs can encourage more people to take part in backcountry adventures. So whether you're a seasoned hunter or just curious about this exhilarating pursuit, join us for a deep dive into Rob Gearing's world. You'll hear captivating stories from his decades-long career, practical advice for getting started, and a wealth of tips on staying safe and successful in remote wilderness settings. Our hope is that this episode inspires more hunting enthusiasts—both novice and veteran—to discover the unique challenges and rewards of backcountry hunting. https://www.instagram.com/spartanprecision/ https://www.facebook.com/spartanprecisionequipment https://www.youtube.com/user/javelinbipod/

This week we are in for a special treat as we "hop across the pond" and land in Dundee, Scotland to connect with innovative songwriter, composer and producer Theo Bleak, whose music resonates with a profound sense of place and reflection, somehow achieving a sound that is equally familiar and unfamiliar, nostalgic and yet completely new.With each note, she weaves a sonic tapestry that captures the beauty and complexity of the world around her, drawing listeners into a journey through time, nature, and emotion. Her music is deeply influenced by the landscapes of Perthshire and Angus, where she finds inspiration during reflective walks through the countryside. Theo Bleak's work is more than just music; it is an exploration of the human experience through the lens of nature's ever-changing beauty. With each piece, she offers a moment of introspection, a chance to reconnect with the world and with oneself. Her music is a journey—a walk through the countryside of the mind and heart, where every step brings a new revelation.Bleak's 2023 EP Pain made the shortlist for Scottish Album of the Year (SAY), and features the universally loved hit "Raining All The Time", which will be our encore song at the end of the broadcast.We'll dive in to her songwriting efforts, which she acknowledges can leave her quite spent and "incredibly unwell", but she can't imagine doing anything else.We also touch on the collab she did having James Graham join her to sing on the track "Don't Borrow Grief From Later", which the title alone leaves you musing on its poetry.Hope you'll join us for the this lovely chat and the very medieval Scottish vibe, but mostly for Theo Bleak's incredible music.Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band".

Should five years' residency make a player eligible to play international football for that country? It's allowed under Fifa rules, but historically Wales, Scotland, England and Northern Ireland have agreed not to take advantage of it. The Football Association of Wales, though, have been testing the waters to see if there is appetite for change. As it transpires, there isn't. And Iwan and Sam are in complete agreement with that.They also agree that Newport County deserve great credit for giving their season a completely different complexion with four successive wins, but a lacklustre start at Portsmouth by Cardiff comes under criticism.And Iwan takes great pleasure in returning to his Gwynedd roots with this week's pick of the week.

We breakdown the match further by looking at Vincent Kompany's lineup, tactics, substitutions, player performances, match highlights, and hand out our match awards. Michael Olise scored a firecracker opening goal from a superb long ball curtesy of Dayot Upamecano. Joshua Kimmich found Harry Kane on a corner to put the Bavarians up two before eventually conceding. We talk about how Bayern seemed to have things under control before losing their grip on the match and almost throwing away a lead after some second half substitutions. Next, we do a deeper dive into a preview of the Bundesliga showdown on Saturday away against Bayer Leverkusen in what could be a crucial match in deciding the title. We look at what the lineup could or should be from Vincent Kompany and what tactics he should impose to finally beat Xabi Alonso's side. Then, we even break down what's ahead for Bayern in the UCL. Finally, Jim takes the reigns to provide updates on all the latest news surrounding Chelsea FC.

Gloucester played Hartpury in their final Premiership Cup home game and it was a bit of a stinker. A 7-7 draw with very little quality or entertainment, Jim and Ed give their very short reviews of the game and where we can find any positives.In the Six Nations, England snatched an improbable victory over a misfiring French side; Scotland once again crumbled in the face of a dominant Ireland and Wales' misery continues to a 14th straight defeat as Italy win back to back games in Rome.We chat through all the games plus the confirmation of Santi's departure to Bath.Ed PriceJames Eastwood (Snowy)Jim HarleyCherry Jam is kindly sponsored by PGT LLP
This week we had the pleasure of speaking with the owner of Boonton Coffee, Frankie. Originally from a small town near Edinburgh, Scotland, Frankie always loved the taste of coffee. After spending a decade in corporate America, Frankie yearned for something more than life in a cubicle and thus pursued his passion by opening up Boonton Coffee. Since its inception in 2016, Boonton Coffee has seen immense success and even boasted the accolade of the number 2 coffee shop in New Jersey. Frankie attributes the shop's success to his willingness to learn, taking risks, but most importantly, the hard work of his incredible staff. Boonton Coffee is more than just a coffee shop, rather it is a place to relax, work, go on dates, or just escape from reality. Frankie has also created the Boonton Coffee Presents, which are private concerts for guests to enjoy. We have provided links to all things Boonton Coffee, below.

Scotland—a land of misty mountains, ancient forests, and deep folklore. While the country is known for its tales of kelpies, faeries, and the Loch Ness Monster, there's another legend that lurks in the shadows of the Highlands. Could Scotland be home to its own version of Bigfoot? In this episode, we explore first-hand encounters of a mysterious, towering, hairy figure spotted in the Scottish wilderness. From the forests of Fife to the remote valleys of Cairnpapple, we hear the chilling testimonies of those who claim to have come face-to-face with something not quite human. Could these stories be evidence of an undiscovered wildman of Scotland? Or are we dealing with something even more mysterious—something that exists on the edge of reality? What You'll Hear in This Episode: • The Dundee Encounter – A late-night walk turns into a terrifying sprint when two friends stumble upon a creature too large, too unnatural to be human. • The Knock Hill Shadow – A dark figure watches from the hilltop before moving at impossible speed towards an unsuspecting driver. • Cairnpapple's Stalker – Three separate encounters, years apart, all in the same chilling location. What lurks in the snow-covered hills? • Missing Time in Jedburgh – A family road trip takes a bizarre turn when an unidentified flying object paces their car—and they later realize hours of their journey have vanished. • The Glamis Castle Secret – Could an ancient Scottish estate be hiding the truth about a monstrous prisoner?

The 7th February 2025 marks 90 years since the death of Scottish writer Lewis Grassic Gibbon, author of Sunset Song. In 2016, it was voted Scotland's favourite novel. In this archive programme, Mark Stephen explores the area it was set in, the Mearns.
Ellie Wilson, a rape survivor, is campaigning for the right for victims to be able to appear at parole hearings, after being denied permission to attend one for her attacker. She tells Nuala McGovern why she wants the law changed in Scotland, and barrister Harriet Johnson explains more about the process.The Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley says that rooting out people who should not be in the force, has been made harder due to a High Court ruling that an officer accused of rape could not be dismissed because the process was fundamentally unfair. So, what does this ruling mean exactly and what could the wider impact be on women? Nuala McGovern discusses with the BBC's Senior UK correspondent Sima Kotecha and former Met Detective Superintendent Shabnam Chaudhri.Did you know anyone can legally call themselves a nurse, regardless of qualifications? Labour MP Dawn Butler introduced a ten minute rule bill in Parliament yesterday seeking to make 'nurse' a protected title in UK law. Professor Alison Leary, Deputy President of Royal College of Nursing joins Nuala to explain why she believes this move is important. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the Women's Prize for Fiction which was established to recognise the literary achievements of female writers. There have been huge improvements in sales for fiction written by women since then, however only 34 per cent of the top 500 non-fiction books in 2022 were written by women. The Women's Prize awarded its inaugural non-fiction category last year and have just released their 2025 longlist. Will it have the same impact as the Fiction Prize? Nuala is joined by Women's Prize co-founder Kate Mosse and this year's Chair of the Non-Fiction Prize, journalist and author Kavita Puri.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Lottie Garton
Professor Lady Sue Black is one of the world's leading forensic scientists. Police forces, the Foreign Office and the UN have called upon her evidence in countless high-profile investigations. She is currently President of St. John's College, Oxford, and in 2021 entered the House of Lords as a cross-bench peer. She has penned numerous books, including the Saltire Prize winning ‘All That Remains: A Life in Death' and her latest book, ‘Written in Bone: hidden stories in what we leave behind'. In 2024, Professor Lady Black was also appointed to the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle – the highest honour in Scotland. In this episode of Re-Enchanting, Justin and Belle speak to Sue about her first time working on a dead body, the stories that our bodies tell after death, her work in the wake of the Kosovo war and the 2004 tsunami, and - ultimately - how our reluctance to look death in the eye is profoundly hurting us. There's more to life than the world we can see. Re-Enchanting is a podcast from Seen & Unseen recorded at Lambeth Palace Library, the home of the Centre for Cultural Witness. Justin Brierley and Belle Tindall engage faith and spirituality with leading figures in science, history, politics, art and education. Can our culture be re-enchanted by the vision of Christianity?For Re-Enchanting: https://www.seenandunseen.com/podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Glasgow City – Episode 1 – A Panoramic Tour Glasgow, the largest city in Scotland, is not the Capital of the country as that honour goes to Edinburgh with it's Royal Castle and Palace. There is however, a constant buzz around the city which boasts 5 Universities, the Oldest of which is Glasgow University founded in 1451. It hosts two of the best of Scotland's football teams and it is renowned for its nightlife and theatreland. The city has grown from the beginnings of an early church established in the 6th century by Saint Kentigern or Saint Mungo as he is know locally. Sadly most of the medieval city has gone and there is now an eclectic mix of architecture mainly from the late 18th century to the more modern 21st century buildings with only St Mungo's Cathedral and Provand's Lordship still standing from the much earlier period. In this first Episode, I am going to take you with me through the city streets, pointing out the main buildings and giving you background and context of what we see including wonderful architecture and extraordinary sculptures that adorn the city. We will start with how Glasgow came about and look at the symbols that adorn the city and are associated with it's Patron Saint, Saint Mungo. We will commence this panoramic tour of Glasgow starting at the centre of the city in George Square and we will look at some of the wonderful buildings including the City Chambers or the Mayor's office. We will be driving from the modern centre of the City, out to the Medieval Cathedral and down the old High Street and on to Glasgow Green and the Peoples Palace and I will be explaining all the prominent buildings and landmarks as we go. There are some extraordinary stories behind the facades and I look forward to telling you all about this fine city.

UFO investigator, author, and lecturer Malcolm Robinson joined the podcast Wednesday to talk about, among other things, the famous 1979 Dechmont Woods UFO incident, where forestry worker Bob Taylor was attacked by two spiked objects that exited an apparent alien craft that was hovering in a clearing. Taylor, who was 61 at the time and has since passed away, was knocked unconscious during the attack, but when he awoke, he found himself bruised and delirious, and discovered that his pants had been ripped open by the spiked objects. Robinson is now the owner of Taylor's ripped trousers, but when he recently attempted to donate them to the National Museums of Scotland, museum bosses rejected his offer.Malcolm Robinson UFO & Paranormal Researcher (SPI) - YouTubehttps://www.facebook.com/malcolm.robinson2THE DECHMONT WOODS UFO INCIDENT by Malcolm Robinson:https://amzn.to/41evpo4THE A70 UFO INCIDENT by Malcolm Robinson:https://amzn.to/3EKG5SCCheck out my YouTube channel:Quirk Zone - YouTubeExtraterrestrial Reality Book Recommendations:Link to ROSWELL: THE ULTIMATE COLD CASE: CLOSED: https://amzn.to/3O2loSILink to COMMUNION by Whitley Strieber: https://amzn.to/3xuPGqiLink to THE THREAT by David M.

They were at Allianz stadium for England v France, so they chat about the electric atmosphere and break down an England win in the context of the tournament, but also in terms of the Borthwick and Itoje eras — we also look at whether Finn Smith has cemented himself as the 10 over Marcus. We cover Ireland's impressive performance in Scotland as Prendergast continues his march as Sexton's successor. Jim gives his take on what it means for Scotland going into a huge game against England. Meanwhile, Italy's well-managed win over Wales shows a new maturity, but also surely spells the end for Gatland. Plus, Joe Schmidt's exit from Australia leads to speculation and some big names putting their names forward for the Wallabies gig.

Gareth joins Tom and Chris from Rome after a dramatic weekend on and off the pitch. Fresh from a visit to the British Embassy to get a temporary passport, he attempts to put into words the dire situation Wales find themselves in after suffering their 14th consecutive defeat. Will Warren Gatland remain at the helm come the end of the Six Nations? Plus, what did we learn about Scotland following their loss to Ireland, and does England's victory over France mask deeper issues or mark the dawn of a new era?
In this episode, host Corey Nathan engages in a timely and candid discussion with Marcus Ruiz Evans, the leader of the CalExit movement. Marc has been spearheading efforts to make California an independent nation for over a decade, publishing California's Next Century 2.0 in 2012. With the California Secretary of State recently approving a petition to start collecting signatures for an independence initiative, this conversation is more relevant than ever. Marc provides historical context, legal perspectives, and the strategic steps required to potentially break away from the United States.
