What happens when hard science fiction collides with big-budget cinema? The latest episode of Physics World Stories delves into the ideas within Project Hail Mary – a new film about a science teacher (portrayed by Ryan Gosling) who finds himself alone on a spacecraft with the job of saving humanity from a star-dimming threat. Host Andrew Glester talks to science-fiction author Andy Weir, whose 2021 novel inspired the production. Weir, also known for The Martian and Artemis – both adapted for the screen – has built a reputation for scientific rigour, sometimes spending days perfecting calculations for the smallest plot details. In the interview, he reflects on how his writing has evolved over time, with a growing focus on character development alongside the hardcore science. Also in the episode is astrophysicist and science communicator Becky Smethurst, who gives her take on the film's science. From the treatment of relativity to its refreshingly plausible take on alien life, Smethurst loves how Project Hail Mary avoids many familiar sci-fi clichés. She also shares some of her favourite recent science fiction. Smethurst, who runs the popular YouTube channel Dr Becky, recently released a series about Project Hail Mary. It’s well worth checking out the entertaining interviews with Weir, Gosling and directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller – all grappling with the challenge of bringing complex physics to the screen. https://youtu.be/lYHCTEnYOr4?si=ZLwG_2VfQMeEFOzZ

It had to be done. It was the greatest upset in FA Cup history when Macclesfield beat holders Crystal Palace a couple of weeks ago. 117 places between the two teams in the football pyramid. But there is much more to the story than that result. A club that went out of business six years ago. An owner who was in the depths of addiction when he bought the club, now delivering one of the great football stories. Can they do it again against Brentford in a couple of weeks? You wouldn't bet against them. But in the meantime let's take a look at how this magic has been made possible. We're delighted to welcome Rob Smethurst to the Business of Sport.On today's show we discuss: The FA Cup Run That's Changed Everything:What it meant for a sixth-tier club to beat Crystal Palace, the FA Cup holders.The financial impact of a single cup run, from gate receipts to TV money and global attention.Why moments like this can fund an entire season and transform a club's trajectory overnight.Running a Sustainable Non-League Football Club:How you build a squad from scratch with part-time players earning a few hundred pounds a week.Why promotion often makes clubs poorer, not richer, at non-league level.How Macclesfield built a seven-day-a-week business around the club through gyms, bars, pitches and education.Turning football into part of the business, not the whole business, to survive and grow.Buying a Football Club on Rightmove:The unbelievable story of buying Macclesfield FC while in the depths of addiction and not remembering the purchase.Taking control of a club that had been stripped bare by receivers and rebuilding it from nothing.Why owning the club gave Rob purpose at the lowest point of his life and ultimately helped save it.Investment, Ambition & the Road Ahead:What it really costs to climb the football pyramid and why outside investment is unavoidable.How infrastructure underwrites club value as you move up the leagues.Why Macclesfield now has belief, momentum and a clear plan to go further.A huge thank you to our amazing partners on the show: Gemini SportsWe empower the most confident sports organisations on Earth https://geminisports.ai/SlateThe complete content creation platform for social teams https://slateteams.com/

6th-tier phoenix club Macclesfield FC took the soccer world by storm with their historic upset of defending FA Cup champ Crystal Palace last weekend...Owner Rob Smethurst joins SDH AM to look back at the day, what the week has been like for the cluband community since, and what it means going forward

In this engaging episode of the Pursuit of the Paranormal podcast, Ash Ellis and Greg Tomlinson undertake a comprehensive retrospective of the year 2025, particularly focusing on the UFO phenomena that have garnered significant public interest. The conversation unfolds with the hosts reflecting on their personal experiences and observations throughout the year, particularly the emergence of several whistleblowers who have significantly influenced the discourse surrounding UAPs. The hosts dissect the impact of the UAP Disclosure Act, which has faced numerous obstacles within the legislative process, leading to a palpable sense of disillusionment among advocates for transparency.As they grapple with the implications of these legislative failures, they also explore the broader societal perceptions of UAPs and the inherent skepticism that often accompanies governmental disclosures. The episode further delves into the cultural ramifications of UAP sightings, highlighting how mainstream media narratives can shape public perceptions and influence the acceptance of extraordinary claims. The hosts passionately advocate for a more nuanced understanding of these phenomena, urging listeners to remain open to the myriad of possibilities that exist within the realm of the paranormal. They adeptly navigate discussions surrounding the intersection of scientific inquiry and spiritual beliefs, particularly examining the burgeoning interest in consciousness studies and their potential relevance to UAP encounters. This episode stands out as a critical analysis of 2025's developments, serving as both a recap and a thought-provoking invitation for listeners to engage more deeply with the subjects at hand.

20 Ways to Break Free From Trauma: From Brain Hijacking to Post-Traumatic Growth by Philippa Smethurst https://www.amazon.com/Ways-Break-Free-Trauma-Post-traumatic/dp/1805013106 Philippasmethurst.com 'An important and insightful contribution to the mental health literary landscape.' - Alastair Campbell Trauma is a wound - one that we often hide from ourselves and others. Philippa Smethurst - a psychotherapist with decades of experience - has written this compassionate and practical guide to help you to understand, process and move beyond trauma. The book explains twenty common ways that trauma can show itself - from dissociation and anger to brain hijacking and trust issues - but also how you can move on from them. Drawing on the latest brain- and body-based research, this book uses stories, poetry and reflective exercises, to give you the guidance and tools you need.About the author Philippa Smethurst is a psychotherapist specialising in trauma. She has worked in the NHS and as an external supervisor for charities. She has written for many publications, including the BACP journal Therapy Today and The Psychologist, the journal of the British Psychological Society. She trained at the Metanoia Institute, and is an advocate for Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Her aim is to make psychological information accessible and creative, particularly the more hidden and subtle aspects of trauma. "20 Ways to Break Free from Trauma", which she describes as a Trauma Kit for a general audience, was published by Jessica Kingsley in November 2024. The book has been endorsed by human rights advocate and trauma survivor Sir Terry Waite who has also written the foreword. Philippa has worked in the field of homelessness and has an interest in promoting the ideas on trauma gleaned from her study and long psychotherapy practice for trauma mitigation. She travels widely to talk about her book in webinars and in person at various institutions in UK including Oxford University, Edgehill University, Banbury Therapy Group and St Martin-in-the Fields, London.

This week Colette Smethurst focuses on the biblical story of the Shunammite woman, encouraging us to cultivate their own hunger for God and to trust that He can do the impossible, even when hope seems lost.Thanks for joining us at All Nations Church, we're so glad you're here.

*This podcast episode discusses trauma, which some listeners may find triggering. In 1989, tanks rolled into Tiananmen Square, and the world watched in horror as a brutal moment in history unfolded. But for Philippa Smethurst, who was teaching in China at the time, the impact was more than headline – it was witnessed firsthand in the tear-streaked faces of her students, mourning friends and loved ones lost to the violence.Without realising it, Philippa became a lightning rod for their trauma. Decades later, as a psychotherapist, she continues to help people unpack the hidden wounds they carry. Because trauma isn't just a moment in time – it's something that can linger in our bodies, shaping the way we react, trust, and navigate the world.In our latest Career Interrupted podcast episode, Philippa shares powerful insights from her 30 years of experience, breaking down the ways trauma manifests – from fight, flight, freeze, and dissociation to trust issues and brain hijacking. What to listen out for:[01:28] Witnessing a watershed moment in history. [05:50] Dealing with micro traumas.[10:53] The trauma thermometer.[14:46] Develop a noticing brain.[19:38] The stale gingerbread man.  [26:50] Treat yourself as if you matter.What you'll take away from this episode:✔️ How to recognise trauma responses in yourself and others✔️ The lessons that can come out of dealing with trauma✔️ Practical steps to build resilience and reclaim controlPlus, Philippa shows off her fun visual tools to help you understand trauma in a whole new way (say hello to the ‘stale gingerbread man'!!!) You'll want to tune in for that alone!

Are you ready to tell someone about Jesus? How can you be prepared? Matt Smethurst, author of Before You Open Your Bible and companion book Before You Share Your Faith, outlines seven tips for becoming “evangelism ready.”“The greatest obstacle to evangelism is not unbelievers,” Smethurst says. “The greatest obstacle to evangelism is Christians who don't share the gospel.”

Once a year, astronomers descend upon an unsuspecting UK city in the greatest gathering of astronomically curious minds: the National Astronomy Meeting, otherwise known as NAM (no, not that ‘Nam, though it is quite the battle of the minds).

This episode is a conversation with composer and Web III researcher (and internet sceptic!) Reilly Smethurst. Is it a pessimistic episode? I actually don't think so. My take: The fact that the internet does not replace real-life communities and live gatherings around art, and hurts artists by creating global, algorithmically-moderated competition, is an empowering bit of knowledge which I hope inspires listeners to find ways to make art outside the internet and use the internet in smart ways to their advantage. Reilly and I talk about the strange disbalance between the number of viable career paths for artists and the number of people studying creative disciplines, the absurdities of arts funding, the difference between the Dionysian and Apollonian approach to creating, artificial scarcity, how regulation may be the only answer to the excesses of the online arts market, and Reilly's one actionable solution to the predicament posed by the internet, among other things. All music in this episode by Reilly Smethurst: Inheritance (2019) Uterus (2016) Organised (2019) Angel (2018) During the interview, we mention the essay “Another Artworld” by Nika Dubrovsky and David Graeber.

In 2005, Al Mohler wrote an article about the call to Christian maturity through triaging theological issues. As with prioritizing particular injuries and illnesses in a hospital, there's great need for ranking theological issues in order of importance within the church.At TGC21, Matt Smethurst moderates a panel with Al Mohler, Gavin Ortlund, and Afshin Ziafat as they discuss how to separate primary, secondary, and tertiary theological beliefs. Smethurst defines the three categories as follows:Primary doctrines are central to Christianity—things you have to agree on to be a Christian.Secondary doctrines separate churches and create denominations due to differing beliefs. These are things you must agree on in order to be church members in the same body.Last-order issues aren't definitional for any kind of confessional system, and they allow Christians to remain unified while holding their differing beliefs.Gavin Ortlund shares that love should always be the driving motivation in finding where one's church stands on theological beliefs. He says, “When we notice we are being too sectarian and fighting too much, it is helpful to ask if this is becoming a form of self-justification.” Ortlund reminds us we're saved by grace alone, through faith in Christ alone.Recommended resource: Finding the Right Hills to Die On: The Case for Theological Triage by Gavin Ortlund

So this week I was joined by Dave and Franc to discuss Military applications of UAP tech, Wider paranormal phenomena and Entities. We delved into some more 'out there' hypotheses, in the spirit of keeping everything on the table for discussion and the conversation went to some very interesting places.  Once again, I really enjoyed this discussion, hope you enjoy listening! You can find us on twitter - @UFOthinker @dsmethurst66 @FrancMilburn

So this week I was joined by Dave and Franc to discuss disinformation efforts within the UFO community, whistleblowers and secrecy. We will be doing a part two of this chat in the coming weeks too, where we delve into a couple of other topics we didn't have time for in this one. Excuse my slight lack of energy and hoarse voice, I've had a pretty nasty cold/flu type thing this last week but still wanted to get a show out for folks :) I really enjoyed this discussion, hope you enjoy listening! You can find us on twitter - @UFOthinker @dsmethurst66 @FrancMilburn

And here is the part 2 following on from the previous episode, I'd recommend listening to these in order for it to make sense.  Hope you enjoy! Frank              

So for this week I decided to do this in two parts as the overall thing was around 2 hours. The concept is a bit like the 5 quotes episode we did a little while ago; introduce a quote from a prominent figure in the UFO topic and discuss what is meant by it. Where is the line between direct knowledge and speculation? We spend a lot of time analysing breadcrumbs from insiders who have been on the other side of that 'curtain of secrecy', in this two part episode we break down these comments and try to get to the bottom of what is meant.  The audio clips played are from our friends at Engaging the Phenomenon and Calling all Beings, the links to the full interviews can be found below, aswell as a press conference where some of the Christopher Mellon clips were taken from. Huge thankyou for letting us play the clips on the show and I'd definitely recommend checking out the full interviews if you found the clips interesting.  Engaging the Phenomenon interview with Jim Semivan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxtL-sBhe30 Calling all Beings interview with Jim Semivan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0uaYxeqsS0 Conferencia de prensa con Christopher Mellon y Jaime Maussan en "The Ufology World Congress" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQMIDaX7etQ you can find me on twitter (Frank) @UFOthinker Dave - @dsmethurst66

All summer we have been profiling students transitioning from their 9th to their 10th grade years in the FFA.  These interviews are a lot of fun to do because if I can ask just the right question I can tap into area of expertise that are already developed in these young students. Our guest today is Hayven Smethurst.  She has a lot of involvement in the FFA.  She joined because she thought it would help her to advocate for agriculture, and she took action.  She did this by recruiting her friends, who are not involved in agriculture, to join the FFA with her.  She believes through these efforts she can expose more people to agriculture and help to bring people into this industry to keep it going into the future.  So far she has successfully recruited three people to join her chapter who otherwise would not have done that! In addition to her advocacy efforts Hayven loves animals and raises several different species at her home.  She also works with dairy cattle on her grandparents dairy, and she shows dairy cattle for a nearby dairy with registered Holsteins.  If fitting, training and showing 8 head of Holsteins in a summer were not enough, she also shows horses and keeps 8 of her own. When I started asking Hayven about showing horses and being successful in the arena, her knowledge and expertise really started to shine.  She had a lot of great information for any future or current exhibitor who wants to show horses and has goals of improving their performance.  Hayven's passion for the equine shone through in the interview so strongly that I titled the episode "how to succeed showing horses"!

REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America's youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America's youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.

Hi everybody, hope you are well!   For this week's episode, I was joined by Christopher Sharp of Liberation Times and Dave Smethurst to discuss some of the recent events involving the UAP related legislation going through in the US, the renaming/expansion of the AOIMSG into AARO and much more along the way. Hope you enjoy! - Frank twitter- Myself (Frank) @UFOthinker Chris @ChrisUKsharp Liberation Times @LiberationTimes Dave @dsmethurst66

Dave Smethurst is back again to discuss some further analysis of the historic congressional hearings on UFOs and speculate on whats coming next. It's been a historic event, the first hearings of this type in over 50 years, so I wanted to bring a range of opinions and analysis to the show. With Dave's broad knowledge of the topic, this is a perfect way to round of the hearing breakdowns and to think about where we go from here...  

So in this episode I was joined by Dave Smethurst to discuss and speculate on 5 important quotes that have been delivered by prominent people within the UFO topic. Hope you enjoy!

Listen to more from our Hope Podcasts collection at hopepodcasts.com.au. And send the team a message via Hope 103.2’s app, Facebook or Instagram. PURSUING CHRIST To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul’s paradox of love. AW TOZER The path to seeking God is the journey we are all on through life. Even though we have found Him and accept Him as our Lord and Saviour, the pursuit of God is still an evolving one. It’s a pursuit of understanding, a deeper relationship, dependence, surrender, and a pursuit of His heart for us, those around us, and the world.

He decided to make some major changes to his life, toning back his travel significantly and spending more time at home with his wife and daughter. Then, in a twist of irony,  he was enlisted to work on another production. The premise?
