Podcasts about Somerton

Jimmy Cliff, born James Chambers on 30 July 1944 in Somerton, St. James Parish, Jamaica, emerged from humble beginnings to become one of reggae's most beloved and influential figures. His parents worked modest jobs on a rural farm, and from a young age, Cliff showed a natural gift for singing. As a child, he sang in his church choir; by his early teens he had moved with his family to Kingston, determined to carve out a career in music. At just 14 years old, Cliff scored his first hit with the self-penned single “Hurricane Hattie”, a song that nods to his own miraculous arrival during a storm. With his early success in Jamaica, he soon caught the attention of producer Leslie Kong, whose Beverly's label would provide a platform for Cliff to record more material and refine his style. In 1965, Cliff followed an invitation from Chris Blackwell, founder of Island Records, to move to the United Kingdom. While in London, he experimented with combining ska, rocksteady, and soul influences, earning recognition beyond Jamaica. Over the late 1960s, he released key tracks like “Wonderful World, Beautiful People” and “Vietnam”, the latter gaining admiration for its protest message. A turning point in his career—and in the global recognition of reggae—came in 1972 with the film The Harder They Come, directed by Perry Henzell. Cliff starred as Ivan Martin, a small-time musician who is forced into a life of crime. The movie's gritty realism and its all-star soundtrack, featuring Cliff's vocals on songs such as “Many Rivers to Cross”, “Sitting in Limbo”, and the title track itself, resonated widely. The film is often credited with helping bring reggae to a wider international audience. Though Cliff continued to release music through the 1970s, he also explored his spiritual side—spending time in Africa and embracing Islam, as well as other spiritual practices. In the 1980s, he returned to a more mainstream sound and released Cliff Hanger, winning his first Grammy Award in 1985. The success continued: in 1993, his cover of Johnny Nash's “I Can See Clearly Now” for the Cool Runnings movie soundtrack became a global hit, reintroducing his voice to a new generation. Throughout his life, Cliff recorded prolifically—producing over 30 albums. His later work continued to reflect his commitment to social justice: in 2012, his album Rebirth, co-produced with Tim Armstrong of Rancid, won him another Grammy. In 2022, he released Refugees, a deeply humanitarian record inspired by global crises, which he used to voice solidarity with displaced people. Jimmy Cliff's influence extended far beyond his singing. He collaborated with a wide array of artists—from the Rolling Stones to Annie Lennox to Paul Simon—and his songs were covered by many others, underlining the universal appeal of his message. In recognition of his impact, he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2010. In Jamaica, he was honored with the Order of Merit, one of the nation's highest accolades. On a personal level, Cliff was intensely private. He had several children, and his longtime partner, Latifa Chambers, survived him. His wife announced his passing on 24 November 2025, revealing that he died following a seizure and pneumonia. Jimmy Cliff's legacy is defined not just by his music, but by the spirit it carried: hope, resistance and unity. From his rural Jamaican beginnings to global stages, he remained true to his message and his people. In his words, he always believed in crossing to the other side—to higher ground. Now, his journey has come full circle, but his songs continue to carry that same power to uplift, to challenge, and to heal.To learn more about Jimmy Cliff head to his website https://www.jimmycliff.com/

Certain artists bring a feeling of soulful upliftment and leave a mark on your musical heart - Jimmy Cliff is one; you sense a man smiling and embracing life. He's navigated Jamaica's musical evolution from the start, with 1962's Hurricane Hattie, to the soundtrack that put him front and centre on a global stage in 1972. He's continued to release beautiful music that speaks to our spiritual sides, and his legacy will live on for generations to come. R.I.P. Jimmy. (1944-2025) Jimmy Cliff was born James Chambers in 1944, growing up in rural Somerton before moving to Kingston as a teenager to chase the fast-rising ska scene. He was writing songs before most kids his age finished schoolwork, and at just fourteen, he walked into Beverley's Records and caught the attention of producer Leslie Kong. That meeting changed everything. Kong recorded Cliff's first breakout song, “Hurricane Hattie,” which turned the young singer into a local star and opened the door to the bustling world of Kingston studios, sound systems, and emerging talent. By the mid-1960s, Cliff had outgrown the island and pushed his music into London, where his sound found a new audience. The turning point came in 1969 with “Wonderful World, Beautiful People,” a UK Top 10 hit that introduced his voice and message to listeners far outside Jamaica. Songs like “Many Rivers to Cross” showed a different side of him - raw, vulnerable, and deeply soulful. Then came The Harder They Come in 1972. Cliff didn't just star in the film; he carried its soundtrack with songs like “You Can Get It If You Really Want” and the title track, helping reggae explode onto the global stage. Jimmy Cliff passed away on November 24, 2025, at age 81, leaving behind one of reggae's most influential legacies. His catalogue stretches from ska and rocksteady roots to crossover hits decades later, including “Reggae Night” and his 1993 revival of “I Can See Clearly Now.” For a one-hour tribute mix, you've got a whole arc to work with, early Kingston youth, global breakthrough, soundtrack legend, and the unmistakable voice that helped carry reggae to the world.

With a rich history dating back to 1932, AV Jennings has long been a cornerstone of Australia's property development landscape - but standing out in a crowded market takes more than just legacy.

Continuing on with our Oceania theme, Conor and Dana Banana are back and chatting to Aussie designer, Craig E. Somerton.  Craig is still on a high after a successful Kickstarter with his first published game, Farm Hand.   He talks about his journey in board gaming and designing, and in particular, his affinity for trick-taking games.  He even hints at his new design!  As usual, when Conor and Banana get together, the episode is full of tangents that seem to go nowhere.  Somewhere in between, is the occasional nod to a classic game in Five Tribes and Agricola while Craig gives us his no.1 trick-taker of all time.

In Episode 212, “Fandom Truthiness,” Elizabeth and Flourish break down the recent pair of (GREAT) video essays on James Somerton, a YouTuber known for queer (and often fandom-related) media analysis who's been wholesale lifting passages from others' articles and books—while playing fast and loose with the truth in his original writing. Somerton himself fed plenty of falsehoods into the fannish ecosystem, but how much of this is about a pattern of, to borrow Stephen Colbert's phrase, fandom “truthiness,” which we can see far beyond a single bad actor? Plus: they read and respond to a pair of letters about Episode 210: “The RPF Tipping Point.”

Join Kyle and Ardon as they delve into two of the most perplexing cases we've ever heard of; The Somerton Man case and the Peter Bergmann case.  EPISODE CONTENT WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDE On Dec. 1, 1948, beachgoers came across a dead man on Australia's Somerton beach. Well-dressed, and with no signs of trauma, his identity and cause of death eluded local police. Soon, investigators dubbed him the “Somerton Man.” As their investigation deepened, so did the mystery. Not only did the man's possessions offer few clues, but investigators also found a slip of paper in the man's pocket which read “Tamám Shud,” Persian for, “it is finished.” It wasn't until as recent as 2022 that the identity of the Somerton man had been identified. The circumstances of the Somerton Man's death were so confusing, that it also started a media frenzy. The Peter Bergmann case pertains to the mysterious death of an unidentified man in Sligo, County Sligo, Ireland, on or around 16 June 2009. The man, using the alias "Peter Bergmann", had checked into the Sligo City Hotel on 12 June, where he stayed during the majority of his visit to Sligo. The man's movements were captured on CCTV throughout the town; however, the details of his actions and intentions remain unknown. His interactions with other people were limited, and little is known of his origins or the reason for his visit. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Nish and Coco can't resist popping up for a special bonus mini-episode to discuss the Super Thursday by-election results. A revolt against Labour Mayor Sadiq Khan's Ulez low emissions policy hands the Tories a lifeline to hang on to their seat in Uxbridge and Ruislip - Coco hopes that doesn't encourage Labour HQ to sideline their green agenda.Better news for Labour in Selby and Ainsty where Kier the Younger - Labour candidate Keir Mather - successfully overturns the biggest majority ever in a by-election by the Labour Party. While in Somerton and Frome a huge win for the Liberal Democrats means Coco gets to enjoy leader Ed Davey pulling another of his cheesy victory stunts.

The Tories clutch at a straw marked “ULEZ” but can't hide the fact that they got an absolute hiding in three by-elections. What's the truth behind the spin? Will Uxbridge tank Labour's green policies? And who made a bigger fool of himself: Grant Shapps or Johnny Mercer? Jacob Jarvis is joined by Alex Andreou and the New Statesman's Zoë Grunewald to read the runes of a big night in Somerton and Frome, Selby and Ainsty, and former Boris Johnson stronghold Uxbridge and South Ruislip.  • “It was a spanking… The Tories' narrow path to victory got a whole lot narrower and anyone who thinks others” – Alex Andreou • “The Conservatives are going to use this to paint Labour into a corner on ULEZ… Labour need to stand their ground and keep their cool.” – Zoë Grunewald • “Ever since their poll slide started the Conservatives have been looking for their new Brexit… .” – Alex Andreou Presented by Jacob Jarvis with Zoë Grunewald and Alex Andreou.

There was something for everyone in the by-elections with each of the three big parties getting a seat. The Tories lost Somerton and Frome to the Lib Dems and Selby and Ainsty to Labour but did narrowly cling on in Boris Johnson's former seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip, albeit with a reduced majority of just 495 votes. James Heale unpacks the results with Fraser Nelson and Katy Balls.  Produced by Oscar Edmondson. 

The Conservatives faced a rout in both Selby and Somerton, but is their narrow win in Uxbridge enough to lift the party's mood? Lucy Fisher is joined by the FT's political editor George Parker and columnists Miranda Green and Stephen Bush to fillet the results of this week's hat trick of by-elections. Plus, since it's the end of term, the panel offers its political report cards.Want more?

The Tories are defending three seats next week, and could lose them all. Boris Johnson's old seat, Uxbridge and South Ruislip, Nigel Adams's old seat, Selby and Ainsty, and David Warburton's old seat, Somerton and Frome, are all being contested. How are the Tories trying to win back voters? And is it wise of Rishi Sunak to, as is rumoured he's going to, do a reshuffle straight after the results come in? Max Jeffery speaks to Katy Balls and Isabel Hardman. Produced by Max Jeffery. 

On today's episode of the Occult Symbolism and Pop Culture with Isaac Weishaupt podcast we have a special episode where we'll hear an interview I did with Mary Wild! I begged and pleaded for me to share part of this show with my audience because it really is so good and she very happily obliged so here's the first half of our 90 minute conversation about the occult symbolism in Eyes Wide Shut! You've heard me talk about this film many times, but the reason this episode is important is because of the clarifying information that Mary provides to me!Mary Wild is a busy woman- I discovered her on my favorite horror film podcast: Evolution of Horror where she contributes to a Freudian analysis of horror films. She runs a Patreon-exclusive podcast on her "Mary Wild" channel (patreon.com/marywild) where she does film interpretation, philosophy and connects the ideas to Freudian psychoanalysis. She describes it as "AMSR for intellectual guttersnipes". She's also held the "Projections" lecture series at the Freud Museum.She's got tons of great episodes on her Patreon- including a dialogue with Dwayne Monroe on human encounters with A.I. in cinema, she's got full episodes examining the David Cronenberg films, and so much more- including your boy! We did a full 90 minutes of straight fire on Eyes Wide Shut. We'll go through the rest of the film and get a good conversation in on the final scene where Ziegler gives Bill Harford the warning about messing with these elites and their sex & death rituals..."Isaac Weishaupt joins me to discuss possible occult symbolism contained in Stanley Kubrick's erotic mystery psychological drama film Eyes Wide Shut (1999). In the film, Doctor Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) is shocked when his wife Alice (Nicole Kidman) reveals that she had contemplated having an affair a year earlier. Bill then embarks on a night-long adventure, during which he infiltrates the masked orgy of an unnamed secret society.Isaac and I discuss the underlying significance of various aspects of the film, including Victor Ziegler's party, Nick Nightingale as Bill's 'dark double', the Naval Officer fantasy, the failed sexual encounter with Domino, the 'Fidelio' password, the recurring 'rainbow' signifier, the masked orgy, Mandy's death, and how these elements might be connected to secret societies, sex magic rituals, The Wizard of Oz, the Star of Ishtar, eros, thanatos, and much more. For reference: Bill's masked kiss at the Somerton mansion orgy in Eyes Wide Shut (1999), and René Magritte's painting The Lovers II (1928)"NOW UP AD-FREE ON SUPPORTER FEEDS!

It's Wednesday, July 5th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark How Pakistani Muslims blocked church construction Police in Pakistan charged a Christian with blasphemy against Islam last Friday. The day before, Haroon Shahzad had posted 1 Corinthians 10:18-21 on Facebook. Verse 20 says, “What pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons.”  Muslims in the area were about to hold a festival that involved a sacrifice. Morning Star News reports that the Muslim blasphemy charge against Shahzad stemmed from personal grudges. The government had allotted his family a valuable piece of land for constructing a church building. Local Muslims had been trying to keep Christians from doing so. And the blasphemy charge was the latest attempt.  Ireland's march for life On Saturday, over 10,000 people joined the march for life in Ireland. New data from the Irish health minister, Stephen Donnelly, revealed that abortion in the country increased by 27% in 2022 to 8,500 abortions. Pro-lifers are protesting new legislation that would allow the murder of unborn babies for any reason up to six months of pregnancy. Lawmakers may also end conscience protections for doctors who refuse to perform abortions.  Supreme Court affirms Christian web designer's religious liberty On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a landmark ruling in a religious liberty case. Lorie Smith, a Christian web designer, challenged a Colorado anti-discrimination law. The legislation would have required her to make websites for faux homosexual weddings. The high court ruled 6-3 in favor of Smith. The majority ruling stated, “No public accommodations law is immune from the demands of the Constitution.” Alliance Defending Freedom noted, “The U.S. Supreme Court rightly reaffirmed that the government can't force Americans to say things they don't believe. The court reiterated that it's unconstitutional for the state to eliminate from the public square ideas it dislikes, including the belief that marriage is the union of husband and wife.” 6,000 Methodist churches abandon denomination Last week, the number of churches leaving the United Methodist Church surpassed 6,000.  Since 2019, 6,182 churches have disaffiliated from the mainline denomination. The departures have occurred as the United Methodist Church has divided over the issue of homosexuality. Many departing congregations do not support sexually perverted lifestyles.  Over 4,000 of the disaffiliations occurred this year alone. American dream means home ownership GoDaddy surveyed over 1,000 small businesses on the latest perceptions of the American Dream.  For a long time, the American Dream has been associated with financial success. However, a minority of respondents identified owning a home or being your own boss with the American Dream. People were more likely to define the dream as living comfortably or feeling happy in life.  Fara Howard with GoDaddy said, “American small-business owners are thinking beyond revenue and sales growth when they consider what the American Dream means to them. Today, it's more about feeling a sense of belonging, freedom, happiness and work-life balance.” 1 Timothy 6:6-8 says, “Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.” Worldview listeners weigh in from Arizona, Indiana, and Minnesota And finally, the emails from Worldview listeners just started arriving yesterday, sharing what they appreciate about our unique Christian newscast. Sherri Taylor Magana in Somerton, Arizona wrote, “The Worldview is very important to me. I read information not found or heard on other news media. Adam provides a service to Christians that benefits us.  Lord, thank you for providing the funds for the newscast to continue. In Jesus' name, Amen.” James Minter in Depauw, Indiana wrote, “I listen to The Worldview each weekday and find it very informative. I have told many people about it. Several of them have subscribed. Thank you for all you do.” And Addison Randazzo, age 18,  who lives in Alexandria, Minnesota, wrote, “I have been listening to The Worldview for several years now, and always look forward to getting the daily email. I take in a lot of media daily. That's why starting my day with your Christian newscast from a Biblical worldview is extremely meaningful. I especially enjoy the fact that you share stories of persecuted Christians which I do not see elsewhere.” Take a moment and email me what you appreciate in a 2-6 sentence email to Adam@TheWorldview.com.  Please include your full name, city and state, or country if outside the U.S. 8 Worldview listeners gave $840.50 toward $20,000 Friday goal Toward our immediate $20,000 goal by this Friday, July 7th, eight Worldview listeners made donations. We appreciate the help of Genevieve in Wheat Ridge, Colorado who gave $5.50, Patricia in Elkton, Florida who gave $10, and Kimberly in Beech Grove, Indiana who gave $25. And we're grateful to God for the help of Laurel in Buckley, Washington who gave $50, Lisa in Eden Prairie, Minnesota who gave $100, Danielle in Brighton, Colorado who gave $150, Ingrid in San Antonio, Texas who gave $200, and James in Kennewick, Washington who gave $300. Those 8 Worldview listeners gave a total of, drum roll please, (audio of drum roll)  $840.50!  (audio of crowd cheering) That means we still need to raise $19,159.50 by this Friday.  I wonder if there might be 5 listeners who could jump in during this first week with a gift of $100 per month for 12 months or a one-time gift of $1,200.  That would mean we would still need to find 11 listeners to pledge $50/month for 12 months. And another 22 listeners to pledge $25/month for 12 months. Go to TheWorldview.com, click on Give at the top right, and select the dollar amount that the Lord is prompting you to give. Make sure to select the “recurring” tab if that's your wish. Close   And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Wednesday, July 5th in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com. Or get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store. I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com). Seize the day for Jesus Christ.

In 1948, a man would be discovered on the beach in Somerton where there would be no sign of a struggle, no direct issues to point too, well dressed, but every much so not alive. People initially thought he was just sleeping but as the hours past, they became concerned and realized, this dude was not living. This would kick off a mystery that may have been solved in 2022 but not confirmed as of yet. Thank you for watching Roanoke Tales and I hope you enjoy Unknown Man Discovered On Beach | The Somerton Man Mystery SOVLED?

Whether it be hidden messages transmitted around the world from the hundreds of operating number stations, or the bizarre illustrations on the sheepskin pages of a medieval manuscript, unsolved ciphers and codes have been a compelling source of mystery for centuries. In the annals of true crime, cold cases like the Zodiac killer and the Somerton man have inspired people from around the world to come together and take up the challenge of solving their peculiar riddles. From national intelligence agencies, to armchair enthusiasts, breakthroughs have been made by individuals from across the spectrum of experience. One similar case has largely managed to escape the limelight, however, that of a late 19th Century man whose true identity was never known, hanged for murdering his wife, who left the world a series of unsolved ciphers that promised to unmask the whole mysterious affair.

On December 1, 1948, an unknown man was found lying dead on the sand on Somerton Beach next to the neighborhood of Glenelg, about 7 miles (11 km) southwest of Adelaide, South Australia. He had no money or identification on him, the labels in his clothing were cut off, and his minimal possessions yielded no clues. Further adding to the mystery, a rolled-up scrap of paper with the Persian phrase "tamám shud," translating to "is over" or "is finished," was found in the man's watch pocket around the time of his autopsy. The scrap was later discovered torn from a copy of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, a circa 11th-century collection of poems by Khayyam, known as "the Astronomer-Poet of Persia." The book found tossed into a car after a public appeal by the police appeared to have previous writing indentations on a page adjacent to the torn-out one, revealing a local phone number and text speculated to be a coded message. With no further clues as to the Somerton Man's identity other than an abandoned suitcase left at the Adelaide railway station, a plaster cast was made of the man's bust following the coroner's inquest, and the body was embalmed nine days after its discovery and buried. For almost 74 years, the mystery of the Somerton has intrigued authorities, amateur sleuths, and the general public, including physicist, Electrical and Electronic Engineering professor Dr. Derek Abbott. For over a decade, Dr. Abbott and his team of grad students at the University of Adelaide worked on cracking the code found in the Rubaiyat and attempting to arrange a genetic DNA analysis. In partnership with internationally recognized forensic genealogist Dr. Colleen Fitzpatrick, Abbott and Fitzpatrick announced on July 26, 2022, that they have finally uncovered the identity of Australia's most famous "John Doe." Extracting DNA from chest hairs found in the Somerton Man's plaster cast has led them to a name and an occupation. But will this name lead to solving the remaining puzzle pieces? Pathologists at the time believed he was likely poisoned, but why, and by whom? Was there a Cold War connection, and why did he spend his last day in Adelaide? Circling back to the alternate name for this case, tamám shud, is this mystery really over, is it finished? Visit our webpage on this episode for a lot more information.

We kick off this episode by discussing the story of a young farmer who in the 1960s started to encounter odd balls of light surrounding his home. Frustrated and confused with the phenomena he decided to run one down in his car. Unfortunately for him, his rash actions resulted in a dramatic increase in the interactions with the unknown, culminating in him meeting human looking ETs and spending time in a hidden underground base in the Himalayan mountains. We also get an update on one of Australia's most unusual cold cases; the death of the Somerton man.  Then for our Plus+ members we continue the theme of unusual reports from Australia and look into the story of a lost tribe who were said to be the descendants of a long ago shipwreck.
