The Battle of Culloden on 16 April 1746 was the final major battle of the Jacobite Rising of 1745–46 and a decisive defeat for Charles Edward Stuart's army. But while thousands of Jacobite soldiers fought and died on Culloden Moor, only four clan chiefs were killed in the battle itself. In this episode, we look at those chiefs, their clans, and the circumstances that brought them onto the battlefield that day. We also consider Charles MacLean of Drimnin, who served as a proxy leader for his imprisoned chief and led the MacLean contingent at Culloden, earning an honorable mention for his role and sacrifice. The number of Scottish clan chiefs killed at Culloden was relatively small, but the cultural and political consequences of the battle were enormous. The defeat marked a turning point in the history of the Scottish Highlands and had profound consequences for the clan system, Highland society, Gaelic culture, and the relationship between the Scottish Highlands and the British state. By looking specifically at the chiefs who died at Culloden, we can put a human face on one of the most important turning points in Scottish clan history and better understand what was lost on 16 April 1746.

What happens when we stop trying so hard to find peace and allow ourselves a moment simply to be?In this heartfelt episode of Soul Sync, I'm joined by Scottish medium and teacher Steven Trolland for a conversation about grief, the soul, and the presence of those we love.Following the death of his brother, Steven found himself overwhelmed by grief and struggling to meditate. Then, sitting on a hillside overlooking a loch in the Scottish Highlands, he took off his headphones, breathed out and experienced a profound sense of belonging within the life around him. He describes that moment as the beginning of his healing.One thought runs through our conversation: Steven's belief that the soul can help heal the mind. We explore what that means to him, the space we make for our own nature, and how a quieter awareness can emerge when we ease the pressure to make something happen.We also talk about his background in competitive snowboarding, the relationship between nerves and presence, and the challenges of learning to trust ourselves in mediumship. Both of us share honest experiences of readings that taught us something, including moments when overthinking interrupted the connection.At the heart of it is the person behind the evidence: their individuality, personality, emotion and love. Towards the end, Steven shares a deeply personal experience of his brother's presence, and a reflection on what a hug in the spirit world might feel like.A warm, thoughtful conversation about connection, finding our own way, and what mediumship can teach us about being alive.CONNECT WITH STEVENwww.steventrolland.comEXPLORE YOUR OWN POTENTIALI'm excited to be hosting new online psychic and mediumship development classes with Donna King.

TRIGGER WARNINGIn which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE PARTY'S JUST BEGINNING (2018), from writer/director, Karen Gillan. A sharp-witted young woman named Liusaidh (Karen Gillan) living in the Scottish Highlands spirals into a reckless, self-destructive mid-twenties crisis as she struggles to process the tragic suicide of her best friend. Numbing her profound grief and deep isolation through heavy drinking and casual hookups, she finds herself unable to connect with her indifferent surroundings or find solace in her day-to-day life. As the anniversary of her loss approaches, an unexpected connection with a troubled out-of-towner and anonymous caller who's mistaken her home number for a crisis center line, forces her to finally confront the heavy emotional weight haunting her. The film clocks in at 1 h and 31 m, is unrated and we caught it on Prime Video but you can also catch it on Plex, Tubi and to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#ThePartysJustBeginning #Karen Gillan #Liusaidh #LeePace #Dale #MatthewBeard #Alistair #PaulHiggins #LiusaidhsDad #SiobhanRedmond #LiusaidhsMom #JamieQuinn #Ben #RachelJackson #Donna #LesleyHarcourt #Sheena #RalphRiach #TheCaller #PsychologicalDrama #Drama @PrimeVideo @PlexTV @Tubi⁩ #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Episode 309 of The Drop Set and we’ve got some of the best listener calls in the show’s history. Trey from the Scottish Highlands asks two great ones — what can’t you prepare for at your first bodybuilding show, and what’s gotten better and worse about the sport since social media took over. Ron from Tennessee wants to know the oldest client I’ve ever coached for contest prep and whether I do posing coaching. The answer to the first one might surprise you. Jeff from New York follows up his previous question with two more — how to recognize and address slipping training intensity before it affects your physique, and what the real hard pills to swallow are about building a notable physique. And then Trey calls back with the greatest question in the history of this podcast — which Star Trek characters would I be most worried about competing against on stage in a bodybuilding show if given a year to prep. The answer involves Vulcan discipline, Klingon genetics, a surprising sleeper pick from Enterprise, and one very unfair changeling. Then in the final segment — the conversation I tried to record last week and couldn’t get right — I get into why I don’t enjoy training right now, what I think is driving it, and the actual plan I’m putting together to fix it. Burnout, overanalysis, coaching yourself last, and why rediscovering fun in the gym might be the prerequisite for everything else.

Tracy and Doug take you from Glasgow Queen Street into the Scottish Highlands and explain how the route works in real life: where it splits at Crianlarich, whether to choose Oban, Fort William or the full run to Mallaig, which side of the train to sit on, and how the Caledonian Sleeper, ScotRail services and the Jacobite steam train fit into a plan.Where the West Highland Line starts and ends, and why it has two very different endsHow the train divides at Crianlarich, and why you will not end up in the wrong portionGlasgow to Loch Lomond: when the commuter belt gives way to the HighlandsCrianlarich to Fort William highlights: Rannoch Moor, Corrour and the approach to Ben NevisFort William to Mallaig: the Glenfinnan Viaduct, lochs, white beaches and island viewsMallaig or Oban: overnight stay, quick turnaround, or gateway to Skye, Mull and IonaWhich side of the train to sit on, and why it is not worth stressing overCaledonian Sleeper Highlander: sleeper up, daytime backJacobite steam train versus the regular ScotRail service on the same routeTickets, Railcards and the BritRail Pass, and why a return is good valueSeat reservations, Wi-Fi, catering and luggage: what to expect on boardDoing the full route in a day, and why daylight hours matterAccessibility: step-free stations and Passenger AssistIf you have a question about train travel in the UK, leave us a message via SpeakPipe or drop us an email. Doug runs train travel Q&A sessions and can also help you plan your rail itinerary. If this episode helps you plan your own West Highland Line adventure, share it with anyone planning a trip to Scotland and leave us a review. Show notes - Episode 218Planning your UK or Ireland trip?Rabbie's small-group tours are a brilliant way to see more without the hassle of driving or planning it all yourself.

Today's guest is one of Britain's funniest, most distinctive and most beloved writers, Caitlin Moran.Caitlin began writing her first book at just 13, was published at 16, and became an award-winning Times columnist and the bestselling author of books including How to Be a Woman, More Than a Woman and What About Men?Her brilliant new book is called How to Be Hopeful, and it begins with a feeling I think many of us will recognise: that the world has become overwhelming and the only reasonable solution might be to run away and start an entirely new life somewhere else. In Caitlin's case, that meant fantasising about a self-sufficient farmhouse in the Welsh mountains, until she discovered quite how expensive Welsh farmhouses actually are. So what happens next? From her wonderfully feral childhood summers she spent living with her seven siblings in a tiny caravan in Wales to a romantic road trip through the Scottish Highlands; the lavish trip to Antigua that taught her luxury travel wasn't necessarily for her; and why Corfu remains the island she returns to again and again, and much much more, here are the Travel Diaries of Caitlin Moran.Destination Recap:Tregaron, WalesStrata Florida Abbey, WalesYnyslas, WalesUllapool, ScotlandRannoch Moor, ScotlandCornwall, EnglandAntigua and BarbudaTenby, WalesKassiopi, Corfu, GreecePaxos, GreeceAntipaxos, GreeceIcelandJapanese Alps, JapanTokyo, JapanAbergavenny, WalesBannau Brycheiniog, WalesFlorida, USAAustriaScandinaviaThanks so much for listening today.

Can you grow from £1,000 to a £2.5 million business without giving up ownership? If you're wondering how to grow a business without funding, Nathalie Agnew's journey shows how disciplined reinvestment, strategic hiring and creatively structured acquisitions can make self-funded business growth possible. In this episode of The Bootstrappers' Breakfasts™, host Geeta Sidhu-Robb speaks with Nathalie Agnew, Founder and Managing Director of Muckle Media, about building a profitable agency group while retaining 100% equity. After leaving a successful agency career in London, Nathalie returned to the Scottish Highlands and began freelancing to pay her mortgage. Within six months, she made her first hire and discovered that growing revenue could fund a growing team. Nathalie later used relationships, revenue-sharing agreements, monthly instalments and carefully considered debt to complete three acquisitions. One acquisition nearly doubled the business overnight, expanding the team from 20 to 35 people and adding experienced operational capability without years of organic recruitment. This is an honest conversation about bootstrapping a business, protecting profitability, buying another company with limited cash and building sustainable business growth without investors. 00:00 Why Women Should Stop Raising Money 00:51 £2.5M With 100% Equity 01:37 From PR Burnout to Business Owner 03:13 The First Hire That Changed Everything 04:41 How Bootstrapping Protects Profitability 05:42 How Women Build Businesses Differently 07:12 Business Growth Through Acquisitions 08:20 Buying a Competitor With Only £1,000 09:31 Scaling Through Two More Acquisitions 10:58 Growing From 20 to 35 Employees Overnight 15:58 The Risks of Acquisition Integration 17:25 Trade Sale vs Share Purchase 20:35 Profitability, Efficiency and AI 24:19 Growth Advice for Female Founders ABOUT NATHALIE AGNEW Nathalie Agnew formed Muckle Media in 2012.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Arthur Brooks, professor at Vanderbilt University and a leading researcher into the science of happiness, to unpack why success so often fails to deliver the fulfilment it promises. Arthur explains the arrival fallacy, the hedonic treadmill and why the brain can treat achievement much like it treats drugs, alcohol or gambling. He introduces Thomas Aquinas' four idols of money, power, pleasure and honour, and walks Jordan through identifying which one quietly drives his own decisions. The conversation moves into the dark triad personality, the real difference between kindness and niceness, and why boredom and an undistracted mind matter far more than we think in an age of constant notifications. Jordan opens up about his pilgrimage across the Scottish Highlands, and the two discuss suffering, faith and what it actually means to live a meaningful life. Arthur closes with a message for every striver watching, that no amount of success can ever substitute for being loved. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In modern times, over one third of the Earth's ice-free land is dedicated to animal agriculture, but it was a centuries long journey to transform our diverse world into one big paddock. The British wool industry played a pivotal role in building the wealth of England leading up to the colonial period and the transition from feudalism to capitalism. In cases such as the Scottish Highland clearances, the Irish great famine and the British colonisation of Australia and New Zealand, Indigenous peoples were forced from their ancestral homelands to be replaced by wool sheep. Native apex predators were hunted to extinction by settlers and landholders to protect livestock. The sheep and the stolen land would go on to make their holders extremely wealthy as wool became a critical resource for military uniforms during the wars of the 19th and 20th century.In today's show, Betty, Caroline and Lottie discuss how animal agriculture was used as an essential tool to expand the land occupied by the British Empire and how the British and Australasian wool industries have shaped the modern world.Music has been reoved from the podcast version of the show due to copyright.

Helen Watson is a traveller, writer, and conservationist based in the Scottish Highlands. Born in Scotland and raised in Switzerland, she has always been drawn to adventures that are both physically and culturally challenging. In 2009, shortly after completing her PhD, Helen and her husband Ed set off on an extraordinary bicycle journey from Scotland to China. Over the course of a year, they cycled 15,000 kilometres across Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and China, following sections of the ancient Silk Road and relying on paper maps, curiosity, and the kindness of strangers. The journey took them through countries including Syria, Iran, and the Central Asian 'Stans', where they experienced incredible hospitality and forged meaningful connections with people from vastly different cultures and backgrounds. The trip would later inspire Helen's first book, Tea and Grit: A Bicycle Journey along the Silk Road, published in January 2026. In this episode, Helen shares the spark behind the adventure, the logistics of planning a long-distance cycle journey, and the realities of life on the road. We discuss what it means to become comfortable with discomfort, the privileges and challenges of travelling as a woman, and how her experiences in Syria took on a new significance in the years that followed during the refugee crisis. Helen also reflects on the importance of storytelling, why she felt compelled to write her book, and the lessons she has learned from a life shaped by travel, endurance, and human connection. Listen to this episode to hear about cycling 15,000km along the Silk Road, the generosity of people across cultures, and why stepping just outside your comfort zone can lead to the most transformative adventures. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

After feeling a little mixed on Nightshade, we were curious whether the sequel would win us over, and somehow, we ended up with very different reactions.   About The Novel: Alex's Corbeau-Green's world is burning down around him, and Ophelia Winters is desperate to prove she didn't light the fire. When Ophelia first accepted a scholarship from Sorrowsong, an elite university in the Scottish Highlands, she wanted nothing more than to destroy Alex and his family at any cost. But that was before she knew him, before they became each other's everything. Now, after an unthinkable betrayal and the disappearance of his father, Alex is forced to return to New York, desperate to forget what they had, and salvage the damage done to his family. In Scotland, Ophelia is left reeling, alone . . . and watched. With a new anonymous tormentor threatening to release evidence that Ophelia and Alex committed a murder on campus, it's clear that they're going to need each other once again. But can they find a way to trust each other and repair the love that they had? And even if they can—will it be enough this time to keep them alive? Wanna check us out? Then click here.

Three churches. Three continents. One thing they all figured out that most Adventist congregations still haven't. Shawn Boonstra opens the mission reports that reach the General Conference building — the ones most members never get to see. A district in the Scottish  Highlands that filled a Gospel Fest with people who'd never set foot in an Adventist church. A youth ministry in wartime Ukraine that sorts every person  they meet into five levels — starting with "haters." And a congregation in Seoul's professional district that stopped waiting for growth to happen organically. The pattern connecting all three isn't budget, location, or talent. Listen to the end.

Paul and Michelle investigate two fresh cryptid mysteries making waves in 2026. First, they head to Highway 292 near Spartanburg, South Carolina, where two late-night drivers reported seeing a huge, dark, hair-covered figure move upright into the woods. Was it Bigfoot, a black bear, or someone's especially unusual uncle after a cookout? Then it's off to the misty Scottish Highlands and Loch Ness, where new reports and videos of strange dark shapes, sudden wakes, and unexplained movement have once again stirred up Nessie fever. The hosts explore why the Loch Ness Monster still captures our imagination—and whether these sightings offer more than just a mystery. In this episode: A reported South Carolina Sasquatch encounter near Lake Cooley Why nighttime sightings are so difficult to confirm Fresh Loch Ness reports and online footage from 2026 The enduring appeal of Nessie, Bigfoot, and the unexplained How to safely document a strange sighting Listener question: Are cryptids becoming bolder, or are we simply paying closer attention?

A humorous but very gory Scottish myth about a giant called Thrim and how through unforeseen circumstances, the midges- small biting flies- came to existence. Story Prescription: A story about how people react in the face of adversity; a story of meeting your oppressor; a story of unexpected consequences from our actions; and of course a bit of humour about those vicious insects of the Scottish Highlands. Story Caution: There is a lot of violence in this tale, so if you are of a sensitive temperament, please listen as you choose. Recommended age 10+

In September 2017, Tony Parsons, a 63-year-old retired Royal Navy officer, set off on a 104-mile charity bike ride through the Scottish Highlands. He never made it home. After being struck by a truck, Tony was believed to have survived the initial collision. Instead of calling emergency services, two brothers concealed what had happened, transporting him to a remote location where his body remained hidden for years. His disappearance became one of Scotland's most heartbreaking missing person cases until an unexpected confession finally uncovered the truth. In this episode of True Crime Recaps, we examine the disappearance of Tony Parsons, the years-long investigation, the evidence that finally solved the case, and the disturbing decisions made in the aftermath of the collision. This episode was originally recorded on May 9, 2026, and first released as a members-only bonus episode on May 20, 2026.

January 2026. A blizzard is raging on Ben Nevis, the tallest peak in the Scottish Highlands — gale-force winds, sub-zero temperatures, and visibility of about one meter—when a climber becomes separated from his two friends near the summit, without crampons, a map, or a compass. What happens to him next comes down to solid blocks of ice, a bent walking pole, and a group of British and Dutch marines who chose that exact day, in that exact weather, to climb the highest mountain in Britain. Julie and Kaycee unravel how a body shuts down in extreme cold, why the rescue nearly stalled on the iced upper slopes, and what the marines built from the equipment on their backs when walking him down stopped being an option. And at the center of it all: a man whose name has never been made public—and a margin of survival measured in a single meter of white air. 00:44 Show Intro And Setup 01:09 Whiteout Near The Summit 03:35 Ben Nevis The Mountain Trap 07:06 Three Friends Enter The Storm 11:10 Marines Training In Blizzard 13:51 One Meter Discovery 18:35 Improvised Litter Rescue 26:09 Rewarming Below Snow Line 29:10 The Crux And Takeaways 29:54 Closing And Sign Off Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ References: Royal Navy (official news release), “Marines save life of stranded climber on Ben Nevis,” January 30, 2026. royalnavy.mod.uk STV News, “Marines on training exercise save climber stranded in blizzard on Ben Nevis,” January 30, 2026.

Cory was out for a family wedding, so Brady and Philip hosted from his handle. Also new: a weekly recap song in a different genre each week, covering everything from the previous weeks of the show. Daniel Batten on Cambridge's new number. Its updated assessment puts Bitcoin mining at 59.4% clean energy, against a global grid mix near 40%. Hydro is the largest single source. Full report expected later this year. Sweden's grid used Bitcoin mining 11,000 times last year to absorb excess wind. Batten's point: operators call it flexible load, flexible compute, or data centers. Anything but Bitcoin mining. Six Brazilian energy companies are doing the same with stranded generation. The best idea in the episode, and it's Batten's. A grid operator is incentivized to admit a problem, because saying so unlocks resources and doesn't destabilize the grid. A central banker never can, because the admission is itself the instability. Batten expects the West to adopt Bitcoin as an energy solution before a monetary one. In the global South the monetary problems are existential already: banking access, storing wealth safely, remittances that otherwise cost up to 20%. The Ethiopian dam. You cannot build half a dam, so it's sized for demand 20 years out. No transmission lines, no industry, no customer for the surplus. Miners paid roughly three cents per kilowatt hour and delivered over $100M in unexpected revenue. Callum Wheeler of Renew Blocks on Britain's curtailment bill. £1.5B last year paying wind farms to switch off and firing gas nearer London instead, forecast to reach £7B by 2030. A new "demand for constraints" market is meant to fix it. A near-blackout on June 23 reached the shadow energy secretary via control-room whistleblowers. Cause: unexpected air conditioning demand in Britain's fourth heat wave. Wheeler's pilot is mining co-located inside a Scottish Highlands hydro powerhouse, built for £2M and never switched on. Susie Violet Ward spent 13 months chasing a BBC correction on a headline claiming every Bitcoin payment uses a swimming pool of water. No correction, and the undisclosed source was a central banker. Brandolini's law: refuting costs ten times what inventing does. Closing round on first resources. Inventing Bitcoin by Yan Pritzker, including his family's story of carrying value out of Russia. Also the Bullish Case, Broken Money, swan.com/welcome with Natalie Brunell, and Mary Kay Fain's approach: ask someone to recall a time they couldn't use their own money.

7-28-26 Today we'll be chatting with Clyde and Sarah Hays, owners of Vinland Meads in Murchison, TX. Vinland Meads is a family-owned meadery and artisan kitchen in Murchison, Texas, founded by Clyde and his wife, Sarah,. Although the company was officially formed in 2024 and their public tasting room opened in 2026, Clyde's history with mead began more than twenty years ago. He became interested in mead through his love of Scottish and Northern European history, and he mentioned to his grandfather that he wanted to learn how to make it. Rather than giving him a written recipe, he shared stories about how his own grandfather had made mead in Scotland. Those conversations taught Clyde about honey, patience, craftsmanship, and the importance of allowing the process to take the time it needs. He began experimenting from there, and those lessons still guide every batch he makes today. Vinland Meads first began at Hays Manor, our family farm in East Texas. That is where they incorporated the company, developed their recipes, and operated in production-only mode before moving the winery license and public operation into Murchison. Hays Manor remains an important part of their story. It is home to their apiaries, Scottish Highland cattle, farm animals, and the hawks we work with as licensed falconers. Their own bees provide as much honey as they can, and they supplement that with raw Texas wildflower honey from beekeepers whose apiaries and practices they know personally. The farm taught them many of the values that shape Vinland today, especially patience, stewardship, and respect for where their ingredients come from. Sarah and Clyde are also the parents of seven sons, and Vinland has always been a family story rather than simply a business venture. One of Clyde and Sarah's proudest moments is hearing their sons tell people what their family does and hearing the pride in their voices. Sarah is the majority owner, manager, and creative force behind the business, while Clyde serve as Head Mead Maker and oversee marketing. Sarah's belief in what Clyde was creating is one of the main reasons Vinland exists. Years ago, she brought home their first beehives and joked that Clyde would no longer need to buy honey for his mead. Those hives could never produce the thousands of pounds they now use, but they represented Sarah's belief that Clyde's longtime passion could become something much larger. When they moved into Murchison, they wanted to create more than a traditional tasting room. Vinland Meads now includes an artisan kitchen, which focuses on locally sourced ingredients and food designed to pair with mead, as well as the Rose & Raven Bookshop, curated by Sarah. They also host live music, trivia, educational classes, beekeepers' gatherings, community events, and other experiences that make Vinland feel more like a modern gathering hall than a typical winery. Their goal is to introduce people to mead as a sophisticated and culturally significant beverage, not simply something associated with Vikings or Renaissance festivals. They produce handcrafted meads using Texas honey, locally sourced fruit whenever possible, and a process that generally takes about six months from honey in the tank to mead in the bottle or keg. Every bottle has a story behind it, which is why their tagline is, “Every Bottle a Story. Every Sip a Saga.” Join us to hear more from Sarah and Clyde!

A few years back, I hosted Dougie Mackay at my home on Vancouver Island for some pizza and a televised hockey game. I'd just caught his show in town and was struck by how he illuminated the wingspan of a story - the way it could carry an audience across centuries and landscapes with each sentence.Raised in the Scottish Highlands where storytelling is still in the water, Dougie has sold out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe and the Scottish International Storytelling Festival. He even holds a Guinness World Record as part of the longest continuous storytelling session (74 hours, set in the central square of Marrakesh, where storytelling is also heritage). He describes his own work as firing on the edge of the wild.In this episode of The Crow's Nest, Dougie joins me to explore the medicine of story for these times - and for men in particular. We speak in support of the upcoming Cascadia Men's Conference, happening August 6-9 in the Squamish Valley just north of Vancouver. The conference draws its DNA from the Minnesota Men's Conference, now forty years strong, and we're gathering elders and younger men alike to light a fire we hope will burn yearly.Dougie won't be with us in person this August (he'll be at the Edinburgh Fringe with his show A Wolf Shall Devour the Sun), but his spirit is woven into what we're building. At the heart of our conversation, he tells the old Gaelic tale of Finn McCool and the Salmon of Wisdom - a story from the Fianna cycle about a boy raised by wild aunties in the forest, who must learn not just to hunt and fight, but to see truly.What emerges is a conversation about masculine leadership, the necessary relationship between youth and elders, and what it means to be mentored by both the feminine and the wild. "I think there's lots of people seeking belonging, and the salmon has something to say about that."Dougie offers a particular tonic: the idea that in our broken culture, many of us in midlife and beyond may find ourselves in the role of Finnegus - the old poet who sits by the pool for seven years, preparing the ground so that someone younger might receive the gift we never will.If you're drawn to the work, you can find Dougie writing on Substack at Rekindling the Hearth. He's also launching a nine-month storytelling mentorship cohort called The Storyteller's Journey this September.The Cascadia Men's Conference runs August 6-9.

Prince Andrew's bond with Queen Elizabeth II was always treated as one of the great protected relationships inside the House of Windsor. He was widely described as her favorite child, and even as the Epstein scandal shredded his public standing, the Queen repeatedly appeared reluctant to fully cast him out. Reporting has described her standing by him after his disastrous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview, allowing him to step back from duties rather than immediately stripping him of everything, and later permitting him to remain Duke of York and a prince while the scandal continued to metastasize. Even in 2022, after Andrew had settled Virginia Giuffre's civil case without admitting liability, the Queen chose him to escort her into Prince Philip's memorial service — a public gesture that was widely read as motherly protection at the exact moment the institution should have been running from him.That “special relationship” is what made the Balmoral episode so revealing. In September 2020, Queen Elizabeth reportedly summoned Andrew to Balmoral for crisis talks over Jeffrey Epstein, with Andrew leaving Windsor for the Scottish Highlands to brief his mother after another summer of damaging revelations. The reports said the Queen wanted to be kept informed, that “so much” had come out, and that Andrew's Epstein ties — including Virginia Giuffre's allegations, his catastrophic BBC explanations, and his alleged lack of cooperation with U.S. investigators — were still poisoning the monarchy. The image is damning: not a disgraced royal facing full institutional accountability, but a protected son being called in for a private family reckoning with “mummy” at Balmoral. And that has always been the central problem with Andrew — the scandal was never just about his relationship with Epstein; it was about how long royal privilege softened the consequences.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

And that has always been the central problem with Andrew — the scandal was never just about his relationship with Epstein; it was about how long royal privilege softened the consequences.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

New York Times bestselling author and Shakespeare Professor Emeritus, Eloisa James, spoke with us about balancing literary scholarship with romance writing, leaving academia to write full-time, and her new “gothic adjacent” novel, THE LAST LADY B. Eloisa James is a New York Times bestselling author who has lead a “double life” as both Mary Bly—a Harvard, Oxford, and Yale-educated Shakespeare professor—and Eloisa James—a powerhouse of historical romance (recognized for her Regency and Georgian-era romances). Eloisa, called “a reigning queen of romance” by CBS Sunday Morning and a newly retired Shakespeare professor, continues to reinvent herself with her latest novel. THE LAST LADY B is a sharp, contemporary take on historical romance and her first foray into near-gothic storytelling—described as Jane Austen meets The White Lotus in the Scottish Highlands. Publishers Weekly said of the book in a starred review, "As the intrigue ramps up—complete with death, scandalous revelations, criminal allegations, and the potential for supernatural interference—sparks fly …" Eloisa James inherited a fascination with literature from her father, American Book Award-winning poet Robert Bly; her mother, short story author Carol Bly; and her godfather, Pulitzer Prize winner James Wright.

Send us Fan MailA haunted abbey in the Scottish Highlands, a marriage of convenience, a pet piglet with a ribbon, and a heroine who is far sharper than she's “allowed” to be. In this episode, I chat with Eloisa James, the New York Times bestselling author of historical romance (and Fordham Shakespeare professor Mary Bly), to talk about The Last Lady B and the craft choices that make a love story feel witty, intimate, and impossible to put down.We start with the roots of desire, including Eloisa's childhood on a Minnesota farm in a house full of literature plus a long list of forbidden pleasures. That push-pull of wanting what you can't have becomes a blueprint for romantic tension on the page. From there, we get practical about writing: why she studies TV and comedy scripts to master timing, how Shakespeare trains a writer to land a joke inside character, and why she drafts dialogue like a script so it reads the way people actually speak.We also go deeper into what makes a romance scene truly charged, including the power of restraint, the emotional work behind “slow burn,” and why sensory details like fabric, lace, and the scent of a cravat can do more than paragraphs of explanation. Eloisa shares what it took to claim her romance career in academia, what she's learned about genre bias, and why she believes you can't write romance just to chase a payday. Subscribe, share the episode with a fellow romance reader, and leave a review wherever you listen.Eloisa JamesThe last Lady B, Eloisa JamesSupport the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

This week, The Photowalk returns to the Scottish Highlands for a special show recorded during our latest 2026 retreat in Scotland. Together, we follow the Black Water as it gathers pace through the woodland gorge at Rogie Falls, find historic scenes in Cromarty, explore the wartime shoreline of Roseisle Beach, and spend time beside Loch Maree, one of Scotland's most celebrated lochs, where the mountain of Slioch rises directly from the water, just shouting for pictures to be made! Along the way, there are conversations about photography, friendship, creativity, large-format cameras, and the unexpected power of writing, not simply as a way of recording thoughts, but as a way of discovering them. Joined by Lynn Fraser, Michael Assmann, John Anderton and Giles Penfound, this journey takes you through a part of Scotland that has become deeply woven into the story of The Photowalk.  Read more about our photographic adventures on our photography travel website, The Journey Beyond. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily.

Thank you to Kimberly for the request. Creve Coeur, Missouri, is known for its affluent, charmed lifestyle. It's a kind of safe, quiet suburb where nothing bad ever happens. But in French, Creve Coeur translates to “broken heart,” and thirty-five years ago, that translation became a brutal reality for the family of Elizabeth Mackintosh. Elizabeth was a brilliant, fiercely independent, and strong-willed 50-year-old nurse from the Scottish Highlands who moved across the world to attend the prestigious Covenant Theological Seminary. She was just weeks away from graduation when her life was violently cut short. On Monday, March 26, 1990, Elizabeth unlocked the campus chapel at 4:00 AM for her routine cleaning shift. By 7:20 AM, she was found dead inside a restroom. The brutality of the attack shocked the community and baffled investigators. Join Jen and Cam as they discuss "An Unholy Act: Elizabeth Mackintosh."

In 2020, pathologist Caroline Muirhead swiped right on a gamekeeper from the Scottish Highlands. Her whirlwind romance with Sandy McKellar led to a quick proposal. But before the wedding, her fiancé confided that years earlier, he and his twin brother killed a man and hid his body. Muirhead was torn between her love for McKellar and her duty to turn him in. Her work with police to gather evidence only drew her further into their drug-and-booze fueled relationship. Muirhead found herself spiraling, as she raced to learn more about the crime before McKellar could catch on to her.  In the Netflix series “Should I Marry a Murderer?” Muirhead tells her story of romance, homicide, and self-destruction.  The show serves as both a tense procedural inside her efforts to uncover the details about the crimes of her fiancé, as well as a confessional for the lovestruck doctor about her mistakes along the way. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "SHOULD I MARRY A MURDERER?" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 13 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE. In Crime of the Week: reel too real.
