From mysterious lights and missing time to hybrid children and robotic entities, these nine chilling encounters reveal the complex and dark nature of the alien abduction phenomenon. Spanning over three decades, from Wyoming's farmlands to the woods of Pennsylvania, each case carries its own terrifying signature: paralysis, telepathic voices, medical manipulation, and emotional trauma. Some experiencers were shown infants that weren't quite human, while others returned with scars, missing organs, or unexplainable physical changes. Many describe being studied for their psychic sensitivity, as if they are being targeted by forces seeking to harness human consciousness itself. Whether these visitors are extraterrestrial, interdimensional, or something far stranger, their presence leaves behind only fear, silence, and questions that no one can answer.

With special guest Longinus, P&C drink and review Samuel Adams' Jack-O Pumpkin Ale, then wonder why dragons show up in so many cultures around the world. Spanning the east, the west, and the Americas, the boys discuss dragon stories -- what they have in common and how they diverge. * Are they always mean? * Do they always hoard treasure? * Do they always want to eat virgins? * Were they all sea serpents? What they have in common is a monster that represents chaos. In the west, people believed in actual dragons for a long time, then modernism set in and killed the dragons. Tolkien and other fantasy writers revived them. Now we have dragons all over the place again. Jordan Peterson often repeats a theory -- based on evolutionary psychology -- for why dragons developed.

Spanning styg reg oor Afrika namate jongmense van Madagaskar tot Tanzanië die strate invaar en verandering eis van leiers wat hulle sê nie daarin geslaag het om veral dienste te lewer nie. Politieke ontleder Henning Melber het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê dat hierdie proteste 'n nuwe vlaag van ontevredenheid aandui, gedryf deur frustrasie met verouderende outokratiese regimes, werkloosheid en 'n gebrek aan vooruitsigte. Melber waarsku dat die onrus as 'n wekroep vir regerings reg oor die vasteland moet dien.

Twenty years in the game and too many hits to count!

This week Joe welcomes two debut authors - Lisa Smith and Marcia Hutchinson - who get head to head in a war of the words. They chat about their writing journeys, black voices in literature, coming to writing later in life and why sometimes, you can just use books as a way of getting back at people! THE BOOK OFF'Beloved' by Toni MorrisonVS'Small Island' by Andrea LevyHere's a little more about our guests new novels: 'Jamaica Road' by Lisa SmithSouth London, 1981: Daphne is the only Black girl in her class. All she wants is to keep her head down, preferably in a book. The easiest way to survive is to go unnoticed. Daphne's attempts at invisibility are upended when a boy named Connie Small arrives from Jamaica. Connie is the opposite of small in every way: lanky, outgoing, and unapologetically himself. Daphne tries to keep her distance, but Connie is magnetic, and they form an intense bond. As they navigate growing up in a volatile, rapidly changing city, their families become close, and their friendship begins to shift into something more complicated. When Connie reveals that he and his mother “nuh land”—meaning they're in England illegally—Daphne realizes that she is dangerously entangled in Connie's fragile home life. Soon, long-buried secrets in both families threaten to tear them apart permanently.Spanning one tumultuous decade, from the industrial docklands of the Thames to the sandy beaches of Calabash Bay, Jamaica Road is a deftly plotted and emotionally expansive debut novel about race and class, the family you're born with and the family you choose, and the limits of what true love can really conquer.'The Mercy Step' by Marcia HutchinsonBradford, December 1962.A precocious Mercy makes her reluctant entrance into the world, torn from the warm embrace of her mother's womb, to a chaotic household that seems to have no place for her. Her siblings do not understand her, her mother's attention is given to the Church, and the entire family lives at the whims of her father's quick temper. Left to herself, Mercy finds solace in books, her imagination, and the quiet comfort of her faithful toy, Dolly. But escapism has its limits, and as the grip of family, faith and fear threatens to close in, Mercy learns she must act if she wants a different future; one where she is seen, heard, and her family set free. The Mercy Step is a sharply-witted and tender portrait of a young girl's quiet rebellion, and her refusal to be broken. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Melissa het sewe sterftes veroorsaak: drie in Jamaika tydens voorbereiding vir die storm, drie in Haïti en een in die Dominikaanse Republiek.

Ronnie Overgoor is de man die spreken en voorzitten eruit laat zien alsof het vanzelf gaat. Maar achter die ogenschijnlijke moeiteloosheid schuilt een bijna chirurgische precisie: voorbereiding, vlieguren en pure liefde voor het vak.“Spanning is mijn vriendje. Als je wil leveren, of je nou sporter, muzikant of spreker bent, dan heb je die spanning nodig. Noem het geen stress, noem het excitement.”In deze aflevering van DenkTank vertelt Ronnie Overgoor – media-veteraan, oprichter van 7DTV en een van de meest gevraagde dagvoorzitters van Nederland –openhartig over de fijne kneepjes van zijn vak. Een podcast vol lessen voor leiders die het woord moeten nemen als spreker of voorzitter in een bijeenkomst: hoe je regie pakt zonder dominant te zijn,hoe je spanning inzet als brandstof,en hoe je elk moment – van teammeeting tot congreszaal – naar je hand zet.

Het was de dag dat TSMC - een klant van ASML- records breekt. Winst en omzet overtreffen de verwachtingen. TSMC heeft nergens last van en trekt andere chip-bedrijven omhoog. Weer een feestje voor chip-aandelen dus. Deze aflevering kijken we hoe lang de polonaise duurt. En welk bedrijf er het meest aan overhoudt.Hebben we het ook over Fastned. Het laadbedrijf meldt zelf ook records (qua omzet en brutowinst) en blijft flink uitbreiden. We kijken wanneer dit kleine aandeel zich oplaad tot een Midkap- (of zelfs AEX-) bedrijf.Verder hebben we het over de handelsoorlog. Trump geeft toe dat die er is, maar zegt tegelijkertijd dat de wapenstilstand verlengd moet worden(?). Is daar ook nog Scott Bessent, zijn minister van Financien, die een Chinese oud-minister beledigd. En we hebben het over een Fed-bestuurder die wil dat de rente flink verlaagd wordt.Daar stopt het niet, want het gaat ook over de ex van Jeff Bezos (die géén midlifecrisis heeft), over BAM dat gigantisch onderuit ging op basis van één analist en je hoort over de plannen van de nieuwe baas van Nestlé. Op zijn eerste dag 16.000 collega's op straat zetten!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Meer van Jolanda, haar boek en haar praktijk op https://mensenkunst.nl/jolanda-tijmstra Dit mooie gesprek in video: https://youtu.be/zXHZm__SskQ

Our guest, Aurélia de Azambuja has been speaking at conferences more recently with her talk, “How to make the logo bigger when the world is burning?” – a provocation that confronts what it means to practice design in today's world, and more broadly, how to find meaning in design at all. It's a particularly dark time for humanity, and, once we caught wind of the talk as it went semi viral on Instagram, we were drawn to find out more about Aurelia and her presentation. We were curious about her role in the design world as a member of Base Brussels' team, how these provocations and honest opinions intersect with her daily work life, and her thoughts on being a designer during great uncertainty and escalating upheaval. She was joined by Editorial Director of Base Julie Tentler to provide even more context to the talk and the culture and life working at Base.Aurélia is a Senior Designer at Base Design Brussels, where she has been working for the last 8 years. She orchestrates teams of copywriters, illustrators, and art directors to bring bold, conceptually rooted design to life. Her passion about the power of design as a tool for change has her frequently (and now more publicly) asking the big questions – challenging her creative approach, her team, and the design world at large.Julie Tentler is the Editorial Director at Base Design, leading global communications across the network's studios. Her focus is on strengthening the Base brand – defining its values and point of view with an engaging tone. Spanning all six studios, she brings a transversal perspective that guides storytelling so the brand shows up with clarity and consistency worldwide.Base Design was Started in the early '90s and is an international network of creative studios in Brussels, New York, Geneva, and Melbourne, with a new studio in Saigon and a Digital studio that operates without a physical location. For more than three decades, they've built brands that are memorable, human-centric, and crafted for good business.Rather than replicating the same model everywhere, each of their studios thrives on its local culture – while staying united by a shared mission: to help companies create brands with vision, clarity, and empathy.In conversation, we hear how Julie and Aurélia are bringing a caring and inquisitive perspective to spaces like the design conferences out of the Base studios to spark important questions. We're happy to share this episode with everyone and hope it scratches your brains a little to move with your hearts.We R here 4 U. Thanks.

The Writings of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln, acclaimed scholars Lucas E. Morel and Jonathan W. White assemble Frederick Douglass's meaningful and poignant statements about Abraham Lincoln, including a dozen newly discovered documents that haven't been seen for 160 years. Measuring the Man brings together, for the first time, every substantive comment Frederick Douglass made about Abraham Lincoln. Spanning more than three decades, this revelatory collection traces Douglass's complex, evolving assessment of the man who led the nation through the Civil War and emancipation. Readers will encounter the distrust and vitriol Douglass directed at Lincoln throughout much of the Civil War, including his anger and frustration with the president as he moved slowly, but methodically, toward emancipation. Douglass's writings also reveal how three personal interactions between these two great men led to powerful feelings of friendship and mutual admiration. After Lincoln's assassination—as Jim Crow laws and political violence gutted the hard-won rights of Black Americans—Douglass expressed greater appreciation for Lincoln's statesmanship during the Civil War and praised him as a model for postwar America.There is no one better than Frederick Douglass to offer a critical assessment of the Great Emancipator and savior of the Union. His reflections not only convey Lincoln's contributions to the nation but also teach today's generation timely lessons on how to fulfill the promise of the American republic. Measuring the Man sheds new light on the most critical period of American history and will transform the way we think about these two extraordinary leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Spanning op het platteland Uitgegeven door Uitgeverij Ellessy Spreker: Eltjo Herder

Het kwam uit het niets: het Chinese Wingtech is woedend op Nederland. Wat blijkt? Het ministerie van Economische Zaken en Klimaat heeft het Chinese moederbedrijf op afstand gezet van de Nijmeegse chipmaker Nexperia. Een bestuurlijke coup, vindt Wingtech. Maar volgens het ministerie was het de enige oplossing. Volgens ingewijden zou er via Nexperia namelijk belangrijk intellectueel eigendom over chips naar China lekken. Ontketent Nederland hiermee een chipoorlog? Dat zoeken we deze aflevering voor je uit. Dan gaat het ook over die andere oorlog met China... De handelsoorlog! Die is terug van (nooit echt) weggeweest. President Trump gooide een knuppel in het hoenderhok door te dreigen met nieuwe importheffingen van meer dan 100 procent. Hij is boos, omdat China stukje bij beetje weer de export van zeldzame aardmetalen afknijpt. Beleggers krijgen meteen flashbacks naar de start van die handelsoorlog. En verder vertellen we je over wéér een bedrijf dat een deal sluit met OpenAI en zo het aandeel een flinke boost geeft. Deze keer is er wel iets anders dan normaal: deze deal was eigenlijk al gesloten. Maar kennelijk maakt dat beleggers niet zo veel uit.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the dance which, from when it reached Britain in the early nineteenth century, revolutionised the relationship between music, literature and people here for the next hundred years. While it may seem formal now, it was the informality and daring that drove its popularity, with couples holding each other as they spun round a room to new lighter music popularised by Johann Strauss, father and son, such as The Blue Danube. Soon the Waltz expanded the creative world in poetry, ballet, novellas and music, from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev to Moon River and Are You Lonesome Tonight.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss 'the greatest poet of his age', Thomas Wyatt (1503 -1542), who brought the poetry of the Italian Renaissance into the English Tudor world, especially the sonnet, so preparing the way for Shakespeare and Donne. As an ambassador to Henry VIII and, allegedly, too close to Anne Boleyn, he experienced great privilege under intense scrutiny. Some of Wyatt's poems, such as They Flee From Me That Sometime Did Me Seek, are astonishingly fresh and conversational and yet he wrote them under the tightest constraints, when a syllable out of place could have condemned him to the Tower.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the anchoress and mystic who, in the late fourteenth century, wrote about her visions of Christ suffering, in a work since known as Revelations of Divine Love. She is probably the first named woman writer in English, even if questions about her name and life remain open. Her account is an exploration of the meaning of her visions and is vivid and bold, both in its imagery and theology. From her confined cell in a Norwich parish church, in a land beset with plague, she dealt with the nature of sin and with the feminine side of God, and shared the message she received that God is love and, famously, that all shall be well and all manner of things shall be well.

The Writings of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln, acclaimed scholars Lucas E. Morel and Jonathan W. White assemble Frederick Douglass's meaningful and poignant statements about Abraham Lincoln, including a dozen newly discovered documents that haven't been seen for 160 years. Measuring the Man brings together, for the first time, every substantive comment Frederick Douglass made about Abraham Lincoln. Spanning more than three decades, this revelatory collection traces Douglass's complex, evolving assessment of the man who led the nation through the Civil War and emancipation. Readers will encounter the distrust and vitriol Douglass directed at Lincoln throughout much of the Civil War, including his anger and frustration with the president as he moved slowly, but methodically, toward emancipation. Douglass's writings also reveal how three personal interactions between these two great men led to powerful feelings of friendship and mutual admiration. After Lincoln's assassination—as Jim Crow laws and political violence gutted the hard-won rights of Black Americans—Douglass expressed greater appreciation for Lincoln's statesmanship during the Civil War and praised him as a model for postwar America.There is no one better than Frederick Douglass to offer a critical assessment of the Great Emancipator and savior of the Union. His reflections not only convey Lincoln's contributions to the nation but also teach today's generation timely lessons on how to fulfill the promise of the American republic. Measuring the Man sheds new light on the most critical period of American history and will transform the way we think about these two extraordinary leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Gregg Larson never set out to own haunted properties. With a background in science and engineering, Gregg was searching for land to host large-scale medieval events when his real estate agent led him to the abandoned Indiana State Sanatorium. Spanning 200 acres with over 120,000 square feet of buildings, the sanatorium had a dark history of tragedy and loss—and a reputation as one of Indiana's most haunted locations. A self-described skeptic, Gregg bought the property without giving the paranormal a second thought. But over time, his experiences and the stories tied to the grounds changed his perspective. Today, Gregg not only owns the Indiana State Sanatorium, but also the Historic Stark Saloon and Billie Creek Village—two other Indiana sites known for their paranormal activity. In Part One of this conversation, Gregg shares how he went from skeptic to steward of some of Indiana's most haunted historic properties.

Clark Collis is a British author and journalist best known for his long career at Entertainment Weekly, where he spent 18 years as a senior writer. Clark is the author of two major books on horror: You've Got Red on You: How Shaun of the Dead Was Brought to Life (2021) and, most recently, Screaming and Conjuring: The Resurrection and Unstoppable Rise of the Modern Horror Movie (2025).Screaming and Conjuring is a must-read for horror fans. Spanning the era from Scream to The Conjuring—with a final chapter capturing everything that's happened since—it's the closest thing we have to a definitive historical textbook on contemporary horror. At over 500 pages, it's surprisingly fast-paced, mapping the genre's waves, franchises, and creative crosscurrents to show why horror keeps coming back—and why it matters now more than ever.In this conversation, Clark unpacks horror's recent banner year, explores the genre's resilience, and traces the movements that shaped it over decades.On today's episode of The Nick Taylor Horror Show, here—without further ado—is Clark Collis.Show NotesMovies MentionedThe MonkeySinnersWeapons28 Years LaterFinal Destination: BloodlinesThe ConjuringImmaculateThe First OmenAbigailShaun of the DeadGrindhouseJimmy and StiggsBarbarianLong LegsThe MummyThe Sixth SenseThe Blair Witch ProjectStir of EchoesStigmataRavenousEnd of DaysResident Evil and 28 Days LaterSawBooks and ResourcesNightmare Movies by Kim Newman, recommended reading for earlier periods of horror historyThe Zombies That Ate PittsburghFollow Clark Collis at:IMBd: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6020968/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clarkcollisX (Twitter): https://x.com/ClarkCollisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clark-collis-98878840/

A rare mix from the critically acclaimed experimentalist. Lucrecia Dalt isn't your typical electronic artist. The Colombian singer and composer approaches music-making in the way a fantasy writer builds worlds. Over the past two decades, she's produced a catalogue that reads more like a bookshelf of strange, interlinked novels, each with its own laws, characters and textures, extending the one before it. Dalt's RA Mix is a fascinating entry into the series (and will sit comfortably with RA's recent archival playlist, Mixes From Artists Who Don't Call Themselves DJs, But Probably Should). Take the opening track, "Cellophane," by Beak>, the band led by Portishead's Geoff Barrow. The lyrics set the tone for the hour to come: "Now the wind has blown down / Now the truth is laid out there." True to Dalt's oeuvre, RA.1005 has little regard for convention. Kick drums and beatmatching are nowhere to be heard; instead, she offers a collage of inspiration, drawing connections across eras, moods and geographies. The mix includes the work of close collaborators (David Sylvian, Juana Molina and Niño de Elche) as well as excursions into psychedelic jazz (Lloyd's Miller's "Gol-E-Gandom"), sombre downtempo (Muslimgauze's "Enchante, Monsieur") and Korean pop (Leenalchi's "Magic Pocket). Spanning just over an hour, it unfolds like another chapter in Dalt's ongoing project of world-building through sound. @lucreciadalt Find the tracklist and interview at https://ra.co/podcast/1023

One of the most remarkable and unusual box sets “Tracks II: The Lost Albums, seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records have been released as a nine LP or seven CD collection. Spanning 83 songs - 74 of which have never been released in any form - Tracks II: The Lost Albums offers an unprecedented look into more than three prolific decades of Springsteen's life and work as an artist.Maggie's guest for this conversation is veteran Rock DJ Rita Wilde who shares her insights into the iconic Mr. Springsteen and this amazing release of his music.Seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records will be released for the first time this summer on the widely-rumored and long-anticipated “Tracks II: The Lost Albums,” coming June 27 via Sony Music. A set spanning 83 songs, "The Lost Albums" fill in rich chapters of Springsteen's expansive career timeline — while offering invaluable insight into his life and work as an artist. “'The Lost Albums' were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released,” said Springsteen. “I've played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I'm glad you'll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”From the lo-fi exploration of “LA Garage Sessions '83” — serving as a crucial link between “Nebraska” and “Born in the U.S.A.” — to the drum loop and synthesizer sounds of “Streets of Philadelphia Sessions,” “The Lost Albums” offer unprecedented context into 35 prolific years (1983-2018) of Springsteen's songwriting and home recording. “The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions,” Springsteen explained. Throughout the set, that sonic experimentation takes the form of film soundtrack work (for a movie that was never made) on “Faithless,” country combos with pedal steel on “Somewhere North of Nashville,” richly-woven border tales on “Inyo” and orchestra-driven, mid-century noir on “Twilight Hours.” Alongside the announcement of “The Lost Albums,” a first look at the collection also arrives today with “Rain In The River” — which comes from the lost album “Perfect World,” and encapsulates that project's arena-ready E Street flavor.We also dedicate our time together to our mutual friend, the iconic Jim Ladd. James William Ladd (January 17, 1948 – December 17, 2023) was an American disc jockey, radio producer and writer. He was one of the last notable remaining freeform rock DJs in United States commercial radio. We LOVE you Jim! ❤️Host Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo.

Ronan Wordsworth addresses a persistent recruitment and retention crisis in Five Eyes militaries, spanning decades. Younger generations, particularly Gen Z, favor STEM careers offering flexibility and better pay over military discipline. Militaries are responding with increased advertising, flexible service models, lateral entry for skilled professionals, and significant pay raises and bonuses. Low morale, stemming from unpopular past wars and perceived institutional guilt, also significantly impacts retention rates. 1870 GARDE NATIONAL

In an extended version of the programme that was broadcast, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the influential book John Maynard Keynes wrote in 1919 after he resigned in protest from his role at the Paris Peace Conference. There the victors of World War One were deciding the fate of the defeated, especially Germany and Austria-Hungary, and Keynes wanted the world to know his view that the economic consequences would be disastrous for all. Soon Germany used his book to support their claim that the Treaty was grossly unfair, a sentiment that fed into British appeasement in the 1930s and has since prompted debate over whether Keynes had only warned of disaster or somehow contributed to it.

Eli Reed was born in the US in 1946 and studied pictorial illustration at the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts, graduating in 1969. In 1982, he was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University. At Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, he studied political science, urban affairs, and the prospects for peace in Central America.Eli began photographing as a freelancer in 1970. His work from El Salvador, Guatemala and other Central American countries attracted the attention of Magnum, he was the first African American photographer, and indeed the first person of colour, to join the agency, becoming a full member in 1988.In the same year, Eli photographed the effects of poverty on America's children for a film documentary called Poorest in the Land of Plenty, narrated by Maya Angelou. He went on to work as a stills photographer for major motion pictures. His video documentary Getting Out was shown at the New York Film Festival in 1993 and honored by the 1996 Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame International Film and Video Competition in the documentary category.Eli's special reports include a long-term study which became his first, highly acclaimed book, Beirut, City of Regrets; the ousting of Baby Doc Duvalier in Haiti (1986); US military action in Panama (1989); the Walled City in Hong Kong; and, perhaps most notably, his documentation of African American experience over more than 20 years. Spanning the 1970s through the end of the 1990s, his book Black in America includes images from the Crown Heights riots and the Million Man March. In 2015, he published his first career retrospective, A Long Walk Home.Eli has lectured and taught at the International Center of Photography, Columbia University, New York University, University of Texas and Harvard University and is a member of Kamoinge, the collective of black photographers founded in 1963 and the longest continuously running non-profit group in the history of photography. On episode 264, Eli discusses, among other things:His ongoing mentoring of former studentsHow working in a hospital was good prep for the kind of work he doesGrowing up in the Delaney Homes housing project in Perth Amboy, NJHow a visiting art critic gave him early encouragement at schoolLosing his mum at 12 years oldThe importance of certain teachers and mentors, especially Donal GreenhouseHow his project Black In America came aboutWorking for the San Francisco ExaminerJoining Eugene Smith's workshop after a long waitHow Philip Jones Griffiths invited him to join MagnumWhether he is still an optimist?Photographing TrumpKamoingeA teaser about the book he is writingBeing the first person of colour to join Magnum PhotosReferenced:Jaqueline KennedyRoy De CaravaW Gene SmithBruce DavidsonEugene RichardsSusan MeiselasSon of SamGordon ParksGilles Peress Become a A Small Voice podcast member here to access exclusive additional subscriber-only content and the full archive of 200+ previous episodes for £5 per month.Subscribe to my weekly newsletter here for everything A Small Voice related and much more besides.Follow me on Instagram here.Build Yourself a Squarespace Website video course here.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Dutch artist famous for starry nights and sunflowers, self portraits and simple chairs. These are images known the world over, and Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) painted them and around 900 others in the last decade of his short, brilliant life and, famously, in that lifetime he made only one recorded sale. Yet within a few decades after his death these extraordinary works, with all their colour and life, became the most desirable of all modern art, propelled in part by the story of Vincent van Gogh's struggle with mental health.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Emile Zola's greatest literary success, his thirteenth novel in a series exploring the extended Rougon-Macquart family. The relative here is Etienne Lantier, already known to Zola's readers as one of the blighted branch of the family tree and his story is set in Northern France. It opens with Etienne trudging towards a coalmine at night seeking work, and soon he is caught up in a bleak world in which starving families struggle and then strike, as they try to hold on to the last scraps of their humanity and the hope of change.

Episode 380: The tragic saga of an indigenous man named Stephen Kiyoshk is one of Canada's most haunting tales of crime, retribution, and the complexities of the justice system. Spanning nearly three decades, the case includes double murder, dramatic trials, passionate community involvement, and a final execution that left deep scars on Walpole Island and the greater Sarnia, Ontario area. The primary victims of this saga were Charles Nahdee and Adam Johns in the notorious 1912 double homicide, and, decades later, Jerry Blackbird, whose violent death in 1939 ultimately led to Stephen Kiyoshk's execution.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the German physicist who, at the age of 23 and while still a student, effectively created quantum mechanics for which he later won the Nobel Prize. Werner Heisenberg made this breakthrough in a paper in 1925 when, rather than starting with an idea of where atomic particles were at any one time, he worked backwards from what he observed of atoms and their particles and the light they emitted, doing away with the idea of their continuous orbit of the nucleus and replacing this with equations. This was momentous and from this flowed what's known as his Uncertainty Principle, the idea that, for example, you can accurately measure the position of an atomic particle or its momentum, but not both.
