This episode contains very strong language and isn't suitable for small ears. Sophie Willan is a double BAFTA award-winning writer, comedian and actor, perhaps best known for her BBC comedy drama, Alma's Not Normal. But it wasn't always red carpets and award ceremonies. Willan experienced an unsettled childhood with spells in foster care, which she talks openly about in this episode. We also talk about a failed Edinburgh show that coincided with an ‘intense' relationship and what these experiences taught her. Moving, funny and honest, this episode was recorded in front of a lovely live audience at The Lowry in Salford, Manchester. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 02:00 Alma's Not Normal: Success and Challenges 03:00 The Emotional Toll of Comedy 03:55 Awards and Recognition 05:03 Personal Struggles and Triumphs 08:43 Reflections on Care Experience 14:39 Family Stories and Humor 23:46 The Fine Line Between Madness and Comedy 24:49 A Disastrous Improv Show 26:55 The Novice Detective: A Misplaced Comedy 27:55 Facing Criticism and Misogyny in Comedy 31:32 Stories of Care: Empowering Voices 32:27 The Edinburgh Experience: Highs and Lows 38:06 Writing Process: Chaos and Creativity

In the final episode of Dan's three-part retelling of the Nativity we enter the gospel of Matthew, as we explore the story according to him. Matthew is all about Jesus's royal line so expect kings, royalty and great gifts. Plus, the notorious King Herod beckons - one of the most formidable and dangerous tyrants in the whole region. Want to delve deeper? Become a This Is History Royal Favourite subscriber on Patreon. You get ad free listening, exclusive behind the scenes videos, and a weekly bonus episode. On this week's bonus episode, Dan and resident Nativity expert Professor Helen Bond place Matthew's Gospel under the microscope.

This special rerun brings back one of Molly and Emese's most beloved conversations: a heartfelt, hilarious, and deeply human sit-down with the endlessly graceful Jennifer Garner. From early days in West Virginia and falling in love with ballet and theater to becoming the face of Alias and the ultimate rom-com queen in 13 Going on 30, Jennifer opens up about the moments that shaped her career — and her heart. Molly and Emese chat with Jennifer about motherhood, resilience, and navigating life with humor and grace, including how she really handles hard days, why “movement is medicine,” and what it looks like to raise grounded, resilient kids while living in the spotlight. They also get into her passion for Once Upon a Farm, and the routines that keep her grounded — from nightly gratitude to her very real approach to beauty and aging. If you're in the mood for a conversation that feels equal parts comforting, smart, and unfiltered — the kind that reminds you grace doesn't have to be perfect — this one's worth another listen.

It's that time of year on the Take when Mark runs down his best and worst films of the year—so get ready for a reminder of 2025's biggest raves and rants from I'm Still Here to Tron: Ares. It's all new content as he ranks the big-screen bangers and clangers of the last 12 months and picks the Take's best picture. We'll also look at the year's best small screen releases, revisiting stunning series like the gruelling Narrow Road to the Deep North and the gripping Pluribus (00:43:00 https://tv.apple.com/gb/show/pluribus/umc.cmc.37axgovs2yozlyh3c2cmwzlza).

First up, Song Sung Blue—a feelgood musical drama biopic about a real-life couple who form a Neil Diamond tribute band and follow their long-held musical dreams, starring Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson. There's Peter Hujar's Day too—which follows the everyday life on the 70s Downtown New York arts scene of the titular photographer, played by Ben Whishaw. Plus we remember the greats we lost in 2025. We've said goodbye to some true cinema legends this year, including Robert Redford, Diane Keaton, David Lynch—and of course tragically and most recently Rob Reiner.

Howdy Take listeners! We're approaching the very end of the Christmas corridor—and we've got all the movie reviews you need to get you through the final push and onto the sofa eating Quality Street and turkey leftovers. First up, The Housemaid—Paul Feig's psychological thriller starring Sydney Sweeney as a live-in maid for a family with dark secrets.

Fashion icon Bella Freud on abandoning psychics, learning to trust herself and realising that what happens next is entirely up to her. Freud is a designer and creative whose clothes have adorned the likes of Zadie Smith, Kate Moss, Little Simz and…well…me. She's also a cult podcaster with her hit show, Fashion Neurosis, where guests are invited to examine what clothes mean to them. She's lived a fascinating life: the daughter of Lucian Freud, the great-granddaughter of psychoanalyst Sigmund and the sister of novelist Esther who wrote the novel Hideous Kinky about their childhood. Now in her 60s, she joins me to explore why she's always late, why she regrets never joining the circus and what it's really like carrying the weight of such an instantly recognisable family name.

I've always been obsessed with friendship - how it shapes us, challenges us and often goes uncelebrated. In this episode, both Dawn French and Vogue Williams get honest about the beauty and the messiness of it all. Despite being surrounded by great friends, Vogue explains why she worries she's not the best friend back - although she's definitely working on it. Dawn then reflects on growing up as an RAF kid. Repeated moves meant she learned early on how hard it can be to build and keep connections. She also talks about her iconic friendship with Jennifer Saunders (which did *not* start smoothly) and the people she holds closest today. My fascination with the subject runs so deep that I even wrote a whole book about it! Friendaholic: Confessions of a Friendship Addict explores why friendship matters and how it evolves over our lives. Feel free to buy a copy for you…and all your friends!

In Cox Communications, Inc. v. Sony Music Entertainment, the Supreme Court is set to determine whether an internet service provider can be held liable—and deemed to have acted willfully—for copyright infringement based solely on its knowledge of user misconduct and its failure to terminate those users’ access. Sony Music and a group of music publishers sued Cox, alleging that its subscribers illegally downloaded copyrighted works through Cox’s network. The Supreme Court will review a 4th Circuit ruling holding that an internet service provider could be liable for vast copyright damages because it took insufficient steps to disconnect IP addresses accused of downloading copyrighted material. Oral argument is set for December 1. Join us for a post-oral argument Courthouse Steps program where we will break down and analyze how this oral argument went before the Court. Featuring: Devlin Hartline, Senior Fellow, Forum for Intellectual Property, Hudson Institute (Moderator) Prof. Zvi Rosen, Associate Professor, UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law

You might know the star of Rivals for his revealing role in the hit Disney+ show, but did you know about his dramatic allium allergy?! I thought not. Alex Hassell might be best known for his portrayal of the dashing bounder, Rupert Campbell-Black in the Emmy-Award winning TV adaptation of Jilly Cooper's Rivals but his career spans the Royal Shakespeare Company, a leading role opposite Anya Taylor-Joy in The Miniaturist, HBO's His Dark Materials and co-founding the pioneering Factory Theatre Company. In this conversation, Alex reflects on the role therapy and his marriage have played in weathering early-career rejection. We talk about his struggle with self-confidence, his unlikely 'failure' to get into trouble and the rebellious streak that defined his youth - including that time he took acid at Alton Towers. Plus: having to spray tan his own private parts.

The fashion icon, celebrity stylist, and newest cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills gets candid about stepping back into reality television, navigating divorce, dating after marriage, and reclaiming her identity in the most public way possible. Rachel reveals what really happened when Andy Cohen called, why she chose to enter RHOBH unfiltered, and what it feels like to re-enter the spotlight as a newly single woman. She opens up about the emotional aftermath of her divorce, the realities of co-parenting, and the freedom that comes with rediscovering who you are after decades in a long-term relationship. Rachel shares what it is like being “the new girl” in an already fiery cast, how she handles intense personalities and shifting friendships, and what fans won't see on camera. Rachel also spills her real-life beauty routine, cat-eye secrets, glow rituals, and what it actually takes to look effortlessly flawless at 52 — from skincare must-haves to behind-the-scenes glam reality. Expect Real Housewives of Beverly Hills tea, celebrity divorce honesty, fashion industry insight, behind-the-scenes glam stories, and the raw reality of starting over with humor, honesty, and iconic style.

Henry V stands at the peak of his power. He's not just England's king—he's heir and regent of France. But for Henry, two crowns aren't enough. His eyes are fixed on the ultimate prize: the Holy Land. A crusade promises glory, conquest, and divine favor. To Henry, it's more than ambition—it's obedience to the only master he truly serves: God. Yet destiny has its own designs, and the Almighty may not share Henry's plan… To hear about how the French fared under Henry's rule, listen back to our last miniseries, The Glass King.  Remember, you can always delve deeper into the history behind each episode by becoming a This Is History Royal Favourite on Patreon.

Calling all sign seekers and intuitives-in-training! Molly and Emese get spiritual (but keep it grounded and practical) with psychic medium and spiritual teacher MaryAnn DiMarco—aka “MaryAnn the Medium”—author of The Guide(s) Book: Mapping Out Life's Journey with Spirit by Your Side. They dive into what your intuition actually is, how to decode signs from the universe, and the real difference between a psychic and a medium. MaryAnn explains why she believes everyone is psychic, how to tell the difference between gut instinct, imagination, and anxiety, and simple ways to build a spiritual practice that feels authentic (even if you hate meditating). She also shares her idea of “habitual check-ins,” how to create a spiritual to-do list, and what it looks like to let the universe help you map your life like a guided road trip instead of a solo mission.  A conversation all about following the signs, strengthening your intuition, tapping into your own medium abilities, and discovering your purpose and life path—one message from the universe at a time.

We don't talk about this enough, even though so many of us face it personally or through someone we love. Real Housewives of New York star, Jessel Taank, opens up about her three-year journey to become a mum; the strain it put on her marriage, the financial toll and the moments during five rounds of IVF when she questioned everything - even whether she truly wanted motherhood. And then… she had twins. Paloma Faith also shares her own IVF experience, from the loneliness and an ectopic pregnancy to postpartum psychosis and depression after her first baby. Today, she's a mum of two and recently announced she's expecting her third. As someone who's been through IVF myself, I hope this episode offers comfort, connection and a reminder that you're not alone - no matter where you are on this journey.

A case in which the Court will decide whether an internet service provider can be held liable for copyright infringement simply for knowing about ongoing infringement by users and not terminating their accounts, and whether such knowledge alone is enough to find willful infringement under the Copyright Act.

Cox Communications v. Sony Music Entertainment | 12/01/25 | Docket #: 24-171 24-171 COX COMMUNICATIONS, INC. V. SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT DECISION BELOW: 93 F.4th 222 CERT. GRANTED 6/30/2025 QUESTION PRESENTED: 1. This Court has held that a business commits contributory copyright infringement when it "distributes a device with the object of promoting its use to infringe copyright, as shown by clear expression or other affirmative steps to foster infringement." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Inc. v. Grokster , Ltd ., 545 U.S. 913, 919 (2005). The courts of appeals have split three ways over the scope of that ruling, developing differing standards for when it is appropriate to hold an online service provider secondarily liable for copyright infringement committed by users. Did the Fourth Circuit err in holding that a service provider can be held liable for "materially contributing" to copyright infringement merely because it knew that people were using certain accounts to infringe and did not terminate access, without proof that the service provider affirmatively fostered infringement or otherwise intended to promote it? 2. Generally, a defendant cannot be held liable as a willful violator of the law-and subject to increased penalties-without proof that it knew or recklessly disregarded a high risk that its own conduct was illegal. In conflict with the Eighth Circuit, the Fourth Circuit upheld an instruction allowing the jury to find willfulness if Cox knew its subscribers ' conduct was illegal-without proof Cox knew its own conduct in not terminating them was illegal. Did the Fourth Circuit err in holding that mere knowledge of another's direct infringement suffices to find willfulness under 17 U.S.C. § 504(c)? LOWER COURT CASE NUMBER: 21-1168

Ruth Wilson MBE has made a habit of tackling psychologically demanding roles. You'll know her from playing a mother grieving the loss of her child in The Affair, a sociopathic research scientist in Luther or even from her acclaimed stage performances in Anna Christie and King Lear. Now, Wilson is back with Apple TV's Down Cemetery Road, based on novels by Mick Herron. She stars opposite Emma Thompson, as an art restorer swept up in a high stakes crime drama. We talk about her getting rejected from Oxford University, her failure to run the London Marathon in the way she envisaged and the power of aging naturally. Plus: how her father's Alzheimer's diagnosis has helped her live in the present.

Henry V's lightning campaign across France is sputtering. His army is exhausted, starving, and dangerously restless—a powder keg waiting to blow. The French know time is on their side; all they have to do is wait. But then, in a shocking twist, Dauphin Charles strikes a fatal blow: the assassination of John of Burgundy, the one man who could match Henry move for move. Suddenly, the game changes—and the stakes skyrocket. To hear the French perspective of John the Fearless's murder, listen back to The Enemy of My Enemy, from our last miniseries, The Glass King.   Remember, you can always delve deeper into the history behind each episode by becoming a This Is History Royal Favourite on Patreon.

What if getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to you? This week, Molly and Emese sit down with fashion-media powerhouses Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill — the former editors behind InStyle and WSJ Magazine — who were both fired at the height of their careers… and turned it into their greatest comeback yet. Now authors of the buzzy new book All the Cool Girls Get Fired, they open up about the moment everything collapsed, the shock and shame no one talks about, and how they rebuilt their confidence, identity, and careers from the ground up. They share the real behind-the-scenes stories of getting let go on Zoom, navigating money panic and health insurance, finding self-worth beyond a title, and why honesty is your greatest tool after a setback. If you're in the middle of a layoff, thinking about a pivot, or craving a life reset you didn't choose, this episode is your roadmap.  A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts and follow us at @sonypodcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com Products Mentioned in the Episode: https://shopmy.us/collections/2942947?tab=collections Learn more about your ad choices.

We all face rejection, no matter who we are. In this episode we revisit conversations with two extraordinary women who have faced rejection and overcome it: Spice Girl Mel B opens up about her unsuccessful audition for The Sound of Music and the pain of feeling like she didn't fit the mould because of how she looked while Nicole shares what life was like before the Pussycat Dolls - the endless auditions, doors slammed-shut and the struggle to land her big break. Hearing these stories from women who have gone on to achieve so much is a powerful reminder that feelings of doubt and fears around not being ‘enough' are universal. But as Mel and Nicole remind us, the true test of character is in how we respond to them.

Michelle Yeoh has created a legendary body of work that defies easy categorisation. You'll know her from cult classic Kung Fu Cinema, Everything Everywhere, All At Once - the film that made her the first Asian woman to be given the Academy Award for Best Actress at the time. She was cast as a Bond girl in Tomorrow Never Dies, then starred in the global box office hit Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and the brilliantly chilling future mother-in-law in Crazy Rich Asians. This month sees her returning to the role in Wicked, as Madame Morrible. In person she is warm and engaging, with a fascinating story to tell. We talk about why mistakes help us grow, why she felt like a ‘failure' for not having children (something we have in common), stage fright - and how she almost quit after a life-threatening stunt injury. Plus: racism, typecasting and why her mother is the REAL diva. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 01:16 The Journey to Hollywood 02:36 The Role of Family 03:52 On Playing Iconic Roles 08:10 Facing Personal Challenges 24:20 Think Wider: Breaking Family Expectations 25:38 Pursuing Dreams: From Ballet to Acting 27:16 The Hong Kong Film Industry: Early Challenges 27:33 Breaking Stereotypes: Women in Action Films 34:25 Hollywood's Limitations: Typecasting and Minority Roles 37:30 Facing Racism: The Ongoing Struggle 39:22 Stunt Accident: A Turning Point 47:57 Resilience and Reflection: Lessons Learned
