Why does God create anything at all? Some say God's love is the motive for creation. Others say that God's motive is glory. Today, I sit down with Sean Luke to consider the glorification position.

Physiotherapist Sarah Elmquist and Dr India Pinker explain why incontinence is treatable and empathy can transform healthcare. We prepare women extensively for birth. We discuss scans, nutrition, pain relief, breathing techniques and the safe arrival of the baby. Then, remarkably often, the conversation stops. The woman who has carried and delivered that child is expected to return to work, family life and household responsibilities, while the physical aftermath of pregnancy and birth remains largely invisible. On The Lisa Burke Show, physiotherapist Sarah Elmquist and healthcare communication researcher Dr India Pinker joined me to discuss two areas of medicine that are easily dismissed as private, awkward or somehow secondary: pelvic floor health and empathy. Yet both affect something fundamental, our ability to feel safe and understood within our own bodies and within the healthcare system. The great silence after birth Sarah works in postpartum rehabilitation and pelvic floor physiotherapy. She describes postpartum care as far more than the weeks immediately following delivery. “Postpartum is everything that happens after giving birth. Everybody is different and every body is different.” Sarah Elmquist Pregnancy and childbirth can affect the abdominal muscles, pelvic floor, internal organs and a woman's entire perception of her body. Yet many women are quietly absorbing symptoms that should be discussed and assessed. They avoid trampolines, running, lifting shopping bags, laughing too freely or playing energetically with their children because they fear leaking urine. The most troubling part is that many do not consider this a medical problem. They assume it is simply the price of motherhood. “It's almost normalised as part of motherhood. ‘It happens to me as well. It's just how it is.' It doesn't have to be.” Sarah Elmquist Incontinence can affect women and men, and it can appear long before old age. Shame can gradually restrict exercise, intimacy, travel and social life. Because people rarely talk about it, the true scale of the problem is difficult to measure. It is never too late to seek help Luxembourg has an advantage in offering many women pelvic floor reeducation after childbirth, sometimes before any serious problem has developed. Sarah compares this to strengthening any other muscle group as protection for the future. For those who never received postpartum care, the message is equally important. “Things can be reversed. Just as you can retrain a leg muscle, the same goes for the pelvic floor. You can always train it again.” Sarah Elmquist Pelvic floor physiotherapy is not simply about preventing an embarrassing moment. It is about restoring choice. A woman who can laugh, jump, exercise or move without fear has recovered a degree of freedom. As Sarah put it, learning to sense and control this frequently ignored part of the body can itself be empowering: “If you can feel your own body and know how to engage those muscles, that's empowerment as well.” The Empathy Gap Nobody Measures Dr. India Pinker, a postdoctoral researcher at the Luxembourg Institute of Health working on healthcare communication in oncology, brought a different but connected angle: the taboo isn't just about what patients won't say to doctors, it's about what medicine itself doesn't know how to teach. Pinker's PhD research at the University of St Andrews looked at clinical empathy: not the everyday kind, but a trainable, boundaried skill doctors need to protect both the patient and themselves. "Empathy is arguably one of our most natural sort of elements of conversation, elements of connection as human beings. However, it's highly controversial, believe it or not, in medicine itself." Her research has found that empathetic communication correlates with higher diagnostic accuracy, better patient adherence to treatment, and, counterintuitively, lower burnout among healthcare professionals themselves. She pointed to universities like St Andrews and Leicester that now build communication skills training in from year one, producing measurably more confident clinicians by graduation. Where AI fits and where it does not One of the more striking threads of the conversation: patients increasingly turning to AI chatbots as informal counsellors. Pinker flagged the risk plainly. "AI is usually, depending on how you program it, essentially made to please you... it's not going to push back at key moments where you need pushback from a trained professional." She noted that AI is fairly predictable: patients, and good clinical care, are not. Validation without push-back can feel good in the moment, but it isn't the same as care. The Common Thread Whether it's a pelvic floor exercise a doctor never prescribed, or a diagnosis delivered without space to ask a second question, both guests circled the same idea: powerlessness follows patients who aren't given information, and communication, spoken or physical, is the cheapest, least-used treatment in medicine.

Just days into the Iran conflict, strikes had taken out much of the country's military leadership. Yet the conflict continues with a new regime installed in Tehran. With the new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei unseen since the outbreak of war, who is really in charge now? And as peace negotiations continue to stall, what drives Tehran's decisions? Gavin Esler discusses the latest from Iran with Professor Ali Ansari, founding director of the Institute for Iranian Studies at the University of St Andrews. • Find out if you're owed on car finance at refundclub.co.uk/drill • Refund Club is a trading style of Sandsford Law Limited, authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA no. 8008114).

Life in Spite of Everything: Tales from the Ukrainian East (Daunt Books Publishing, 2025) is a unique reflection on the much-mythologised Donetsk and Luhansk regions of the Ukrainian east, the old and recent history of the region as seen by an esteemed academic multi-disciplinary scholar Victoria Donovan in her numerous travels to the region prior to the full-scale invasion. Seen through a deeply empathetic lens of conversations with local curators, historians, museum workers, and artists, the region is shown in its complexity, with the uniqueness of its landscapes, endangered biodiversity, entangled colonialisms of its past and a threatened future. Since start of Russia's war against Ukraine in 2014, its eastern region—Donbas—has been synonymous with conflict. With the escalation of that war in 2022, its, cities such as Bakhmut and Lysychansk have become familiar to us through the images and reports of brutal devastation. Victoria Donovan excavates a rich, multicultural history of this area, and paints a radically different picture. Travelling from the dramatic, jagged peaks of Bilokuzmynivka to the marshland of Mariupol, from a warehouse rave to an abandoned gypsum mine, the physical world and its importance to this region's identity is brought to vivid life. But above all else, by speaking to those whose lives are embedded there now—curators, artists, railway workers, young people who have grown up amidst instability and destruction—Donovan amplifies local voices and reveals the intensely personal lived reality of Putin's war. Victoria Donovan is Professor of Ukrainian and East European Studies and Director of the Centre for Global (Post)socialisms, Southeast, Central and East European Studies at the University of St Andrews. Viktoriia Grivina is an independent anthropologist and writer, author of Kharkiv, a War City (Ibidem, 2025), and Kharkiv is a Dream: Public Art and Activism, 2013–2023 (Ibidem, 2025).

Zeitgeist #30 s Filipem J. Scherfem o vládnoucí elitě a sílící destabilizaci Ruska agresivní válkou proti Ukrajině a útoky dronů Ruská agrese na Ukrajině pokračuje pátý rok, zdevastovala miliony životů a rozhodně má daleko od prvotního Putinova cíle zabrat celou Ukrajinu. Ruské rakety a drony nadále cílí na ukrajinská města. Ale válka v poslední době palčivěji dopadá také na životy běžných Rusů daleko od fronty, kde už podle propočtu americké nevládní organizace CSIS zemřelo více než 450 tisíc ruských vojáků. Ukrajinské drony útočí na energetickou infrastrukturu po celém Rusku a černý kouř ze zasažených zásobníků ropy a dalších budov se vznáší nad řadou velkých měst včetně Moskvy. Obyvatelé v posledních týdnech stojí v dlouhých kolonách u čerpacích stanic. Agentura Reuters tento měsíc informovala, že Rusko, coby jeden z největších vývozců a zpracovatelů ropy na světě, kvůli výpadkům začalo dovážet benzín od Indie. Problémy s nedostatkem paliva ostatně veřejně přiznal i prezident Vladimir Putin, který označil za důsledek teroristických útoků. Jak rostoucí nespokojenost lidí v Rusku dopadá na vládnoucí režim a elity? Jakých scénářů dalšího vývoje se obávají a na jaké trumfy můžou spoléhat? Na jakých principech a lidech stojí v Rusku mocenská pyramida s Vladimirem Putinem na vrcholu? Jak lze číst veřejné vystoupení jednoho z nejbohatších ruských oligarchů Andreje Melničenka, jehož esej a profil otiskl britský týden The Economist? A jak se jeví pokus o vzpouru Jevgenije Prigožina s odstupem tří let? Nejen na to odpovídá v podcastu Zeitgeist expert na Rusko a evropskou bezpečnost Filip J. Scherf z University of St Andrews ve Velké Británii, který je autorem knihy Ztracená země: Příběh moderního Ruska (Host, 2024) a právě odevzdal rukopis druhé knihy s názvem Faustové: Tragédie Putinovy elity. Připravil a moderuje Štěpán Sedláček.

Four months after he was assassinated by Israeli and US airstrikes on the first day of the Iran war, former Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei has been buried in an elaborate funeral.But who was he behind all the mythology and pomp? How did he shape modern Iran into the impoverished, rogue nation it is today? And what does his life tell us about what his son Mojtaba Khamenei will be like as Iran's new leader?Venetia Rainey speaks to Ali Ansari, professor of Iranian History and director of the Institute for Iranian Studies at the University of St Andrews, about Khamenei's legacy and backstory. Ali lays out how this fake ayatollah was corrupted by absolute power, how he allied with the IRGC to steal the state's wealth, and why his "princeling" son Mojtaba is even weaker.

Was England's greatest medieval villain actually a misunderstood power broker?Thomas Arundel has long been cast as one of the great villains of English history — a persecutor, a political schemer, even the man blamed for burning heretics. But is that reputation deserved, or is it a product of centuries of misunderstanding?In this episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by renowned medieval historian Chris Given-Wilson to challenge one of the most persistent myths of the Plantagenet era. Together, they unpack the life, career, and controversies of the Archbishop of Canterbury who stood at the centre of one of England's most dramatic regime changes.Arundel's rise was meteoric — from a wealthy noble family to Bishop of Ely at just 20, and eventually Archbishop of Canterbury. But his true influence came during the turbulent transition from Richard II to Henry IV, where he played a decisive role in legitimising the overthrow of a king. Far from a shadowy manipulator, Arundel emerges as a crucial architect of political authority in a deeply unstable England.The episode dives into the chaos of late 14th-century politics: rebellion, deposition, and the uneasy foundations of Lancastrian rule. Arundel wasn't simply along for the ride — he helped provide the religious and legal justification that made Henry IV's kingship possible.But it's Arundel's association with the suppression of the Lollards that cemented his dark reputation. Were these early reformers brutally persecuted by a tyrannical churchman? Or was Arundel responding to what he genuinely believed was a dangerous and destabilising religious movement?Chris Given-Wilson explores the reality behind the accusations — including the controversial introduction of heretic burning in England. The truth is more complex than the legend: Arundel did not create these laws, but he operated within a system determined to preserve religious unity at a time of crisis.By the end of this episode, the image of Arundel as a pantomime villain begins to crumble. Instead, we see a deeply embedded medieval figure — a man shaped by the politics, religion, and fears of his time.If you think you know the story of medieval power and persecution, think again.

In this episode of The UpWords Podcast, host Jean Geran sits down with biblical scholar Seth Whitaker to explore a question at the heart of Christianity's origins: how do Jews and Christians read Scripture differently—and what holds their interpretive traditions together?Drawing on his doctoral research at the University of St Andrews on the use of the Psalms in the book of Hebrews, Seth argues that the earliest followers of Jesus were Jews wrestling with their own religious heritage in light of the Messiah. Rather than a clean break, he traces a story of deep continuity — one in which the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the same God who raised Jesus from the dead.Jean and Seth examine why the Old Testament can feel “more vengeful” than the New, and why that contrast is more caricature than reality. Seth offers a striking image: Scripture is not a flat plain where every verse carries equal weight, but a landscape of mountains and valleys, with high peaks of revelation — like God revealing himself as “abounding in steadfast love” at Sinai — that give us a vantage point on the harder passages.The conversation also draws on a previous UpWords episode with AJ Levine to consider what Christians might learn from Jewish interpretive practices: the “70 faces” of Scripture, a comfort with multiple readings, and the practice of reading sacred texts in community as a guard against going off the rails. Seth closes by tracing how rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity gradually defined themselves over and against one another — shaped by events like the expulsion of Jews from Rome, the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE, and the Bar Kokhba revolt — and why he encourages readers to approach the Hebrew Bible less like a prophecy-fulfillment checklist and more like an ongoing dialogue.Whether you've wondered how Christianity emerged from Judaism, struggled with the difficult passages of the Old Testament, or simply want a richer way to read sacred texts, this conversation offers thoughtful insight and plenty to ponder.YOU WILL LEARNWhy every New Testament author was a Jew making sense of an inherited tradition — and why that changes how we read Christian originsEschatology as a central interpretive lens: how “the last things” reshaped the way early believers read their ScripturesThe same God, not two: pushing back on the ancient Marcionite split between the God of the Old and New TestamentsSinai as a “mountain peak” — God's mercy to the thousandth generation versus judgment to the third and fourthScripture as mountains and valleys, not a flat plain of equal-weight proof textsLove and judgment appear in both Testaments — including in the Psalms and in the teaching of JesusThe “70 faces” of Scripture and what Christians can learn from Jewish interpretation in communityHow the early church's patience, love, and care across class lines set it apart in Rome Three historical turning points that drove Judaism and Christianity apart: the expulsion of Jews from Rome (49 CE), the destruction of the Temple (70 CE), and the Bar Kokhba revolt (135 CE)The Septuagint, Isaiah 7:14, and how competing authoritative texts shaped competing interpretationsReading the Hebrew Bible as a dance and dialogue rather than a prophecy-fulfillment checklistABOUT THE GUESTSeth Whitaker is a New Testament scholar who completed his PhD at the University of St Andrews, where he worked with David Moffitt on the Epistle to the Hebrews. His research focuses on Christian origins and how the New Testament authors interpreted the Hebrew Bible and the Septuagint.

“Being a father is probably one of the toughest and most rewarding jobs I've ever had. A lot of the principles I used to teach snipers apply to kids: dealing with negativity, replacing negative self-talk, learning that well-meaning adults can say terrible things — and you don't have to take that on as baggage.” — Brandon Webb Brandon Webb defines himself as an author, entrepreneur, Navy SEAL sniper, and father. But not in that order. The first three he leveraged into a series of bestselling books about the art of sniping. The fourth — the art of being a loving father — he dodged and ducked for years. But fatherhood might be Webb's real calling. People regularly pulled him aside after meeting his grown children to ask him about his “secret” for being an effective dad. His kids were making eye contact, they were asking good questions rather than staring at their phones. Most astonishingly, they seemed happy. Webb's new book, Puddle Jumpers: Simple and Proven Ways to Raise Confident and Joyful Kids, reveals his secret of parenting. It applies the positive performance psychology Webb learned as a Navy SEAL sniper instructor — how to redirect negative self-talk, how to deal with well-meaning adults who say damaging things, how to build mental toughness without destroying connection — to the work of raising children. It outlines his parenting philosophy of both high expectations and high support. Think of Puddle Jumpers as simultaneously the manual for tiger and the bunny parenting. Brandon Webb's ultimate calling in life is as a parent. Father, author, entrepreneur and Navy SEAL sniper. In that order. Five Takeaways •       The Sniper Instructor as Parenting Coach: Webb was running the Navy SEAL sniper program at 27 years old. The psychology they taught there — positive self-talk, replacing negative internal narratives, dealing with adversity without being broken by it — is what he applied to parenting. The connection is not as strange as it sounds: both sniping and parenting require performing under pressure, dealing with failure without catastrophising, and building confidence that is genuine rather than brittle. The difference is that the stakes in parenting last a lifetime. •       High Expectations, High Support: Webb's alternative to the false choice between permissive parenting and authoritarian discipline. Permissive parenting replaces preparation with protection. Authoritarian discipline breaks connection. Puddle Jumper Parenting holds both simultaneously: clear expectations and emotional safety. Kids need to know what's required of them. They also need to know they won't be abandoned when they fail. Webb's word for children raised this way: puddle jumpers — kids who leap into life's messy moments with full-hearted abandon, not because they're fearless but because they trust themselves to recover. •       The Credit Card Lesson: Don't Bail Them Out: Webb's son Jackson managed a self-storage facility through college and ended up with a $25,000 ownership payout as a sophomore at St Andrews. He spent it like a drunken sailor on shore leave, got a credit card, ran up $12,000 in debt at predatory interest rates, and called his father for help. Webb's response: you remember that conversation we had? Figure it out. He let his son suffer. Jackson's girlfriend hated Webb for two years. At the end, Jackson paid off the debt with a new business and told his father it was one of the best lessons he'd ever been taught. It would have been easy to bail him out. The suffering was the lesson. •       Purpose and the War Veteran: Viktor Frankl's Lesson: How does a combat veteran come home intact? Webb's answer: purpose. His Afghanistan deployment had clear moral logic — the propaganda posters in the caves, the training camps, the towers. That clarity carried him through. Iraq was different. Soldiers who went to Iraq with no understanding of why they were there — and whose friends in 2010 were saying we have no idea what we're doing here — came home broken. Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning: purpose is the thing that makes endurance possible. Without it, violence that cannot be assigned rational meaning produces serious mental illness. •       Teach Kids About Money: The American Economy Preys on Them: Webb has strong opinions: America's economy is largely fuelled by consumer debt. Credit card companies prey on college students because they know the parents will bail them out. Kids need to understand the system before the system takes advantage of them. His prescription: teach them age-appropriate financial literacy early. The Acorns Early app gamifies financial learning for children. The deal he struck with all his kids in college: I pay for school, you have a roof and food, but if you want to socialise, get a job. The lesson is not just about money.

Sam & Tom both do some homework on Dornoch man Donald Ross, who would go on from an upbringing on the ancient Scottish links to become the most prolific golf course architect in the United States. Designing and working on over 400 courses, his journey is a fascinating one.With the US PGA taking place this week at Aronimink, it is our third instalment on biographies of some of the game's most celebrated architects.Having studied under Old Tom Morris in St Andrews, a chance encounter with Harvard professor Robert Wilson would see him take the leap of faith and move to the US, working at Oakley Country Club. He would then turn another chance encounter with an attorney into a career-defining move, as he set up his winter office at Pinehurst, designing four of the courses over many decades and using it as a base from which he met and took on numerous commissions from travelling golfers across America.For more on Ross, Bradley Klein's magnus opus on Ross can be sourced here.  Send us a message if you liked the showIf you've enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!You can follow us along below @cookiejargolf Instagram / Facebook / Twitter / YouTube / Website
