Podcasts about Stanmore

In this first episode of our Witches, Cunning Folk & Magic theme, I'm talking to Dr Tabitha Stanmore! She's a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at University of Exeter on the Leverhulme-funded Seven County Witch Hunt Project, investigating the people affected by the 1640s witch trials in eastern England. Her doctoral research was funded by the South, West and Wales Doctoral Training Partnership (part of the AHRC), and published as Love Spells and Lost Treasure: Service magic in England from the later Middle Ages to the early modern era by Cambridge University Press. She has appeared on Radio 3's Free Thinking and BBC Radio London discussing magic in the early modern period, written for The Conversation, and TIME Magazine and BBC History Magazine, among others. Her debut non-fiction book CUNNING FOLK was published by The Bodley Head (UK) and Bloomsbury (US) in 2024, and the paperback came out on 28 May! In this chat, we talk about what cunning folk are and how they differ from witches, how members of different classes approached magic and what they used it for, and why Magic Studies is such a valuable approach to history!

For this episode Danny is joined by Chaz Jankel, who has written some of the most iconic tunes in popular music as well as several film scores. He is a multi-instrumentalist who is best known for his time playing with The Blockheads as Ian Dury's songwriting partner. Along with Kenny Young, he wrote the Grammy nominated Ai No Corrida, a huge hit in the States for Quincy Jones. Chaz has a number of solo albums under his belt, including his latest, "Flow", which he released on his own CJ record label. They discuss his self-taught journey into music, his Stanmore, London and Jewish roots, memories of the Marquee club, working with Ian Dury, Tom Hughes playing him in the biopic "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll" and much, much more. If you can´t get enough of these podcasts, head to https://www.patreon.com/DannyHurst to access my exclusive, member-only, fun-filled and fact-packed history-related videos. KEY TAKEAWAYS Chaz had a few guitar and piano lessons when young but is mostly self-taught. Instruments reflect back how you are feeling at the time. Listening to a variety of music broadens your own range. Listen to what makes you feel good. Chaz´s influences are varied including Hank Marvin, Lonnie Donnigan and American Soul. London has always attracted extroverts, which one of the reasons so many trends started there. The music and fashion scenes between the 50s and 80s were quite tribal. Many of those cultures have experienced a renaissance, but usually without the tribalism. Ian Dury influenced Sid Vicious among others. Chaz loves playing "Inbetweenies". Ian Dury was steeped in and loved the music hall world. Don’t be too impatient, slow down a little bit and take time to enjoy things. Chaz is busier than ever and is currently looking into releasing his back catalogue and getting some of his art displayed. BEST MOMENTS “There is always something new to learn.” “Instruments never let you down.” “Chaz Jankel – the man who put funk into punk.” “You don’t have to be an amazing musician to be able to perform.” “We had a few gigs supporting The Faces.” “People call that genre/era Pub Rock.” “Back then, Dr. Marten boots were still thought of as quite subversive.” “Every 30 years you get a reinvention of what happened.” “Rhythm Stick was very timely for us.” “There´s a security of being in the city as well.” “Hen-dos are the worst…they are terrifying.” EPISODE RESOURCES http://www.chazjankel.com Blockheads film - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1393020 HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students.

When you look at the world, you think, "Oh yeah, I know how this works. I know causality. I know the resultant vector of what's taking place here." And when you read the Bhagavad-gītā and Kṛṣṇa tells you, "Here's how to identify the modes of nature, and here's the effect of each mode of nature." For instance, He says, in passion, it's like nectar in the beginning, but poison at the end. When you know that, and it's there in your intelligence strongly enough, and the opportunity comes and you go, there's a little screen in front of your face, like there's a little readout that you can see, like if you had those AI glasses or something. And then you look, and you go, "Rajas: happy in the beginning, poison in the end." And like, "Would you like poison?" "No thanks." Even though the senses are going, "Take it, come on, take it," and then the intelligence says, "No, we don't want to drink poison right now. Thanks a lot. Maybe, you know, some other time." This is what we get from the Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. So in the beginning, if we're diligent in doing vaidhi—taking shelter of the scripture. Vaidhi means scripture. In the beginning, we're not practicing spontaneous devotional service. We don't have a taste, but we have faith in śāstra. As it is pointed out many times by our ācāryas and by Prabhupāda, śāstra or śastra. It comes from the same root, but śāstra means the scripture which gives us this razor-sharp intelligence, and śastra means the sword of the material world. If you put your hand in the wrong place, you get your fingers cut off. So which do you prefer? You take the śāstra or the śastra? That's why we emphasize our movements based on this śāstra. If you join a movement and there's no śāstra and they just have emotions, you really won't be able to make advancement. This is also there in the Second Chapter—it's a few verses before where we are now, śṛṇvatām. It says (SB 1.2.12), tac chraddadhānā munayo jñāna-vairāgya-yuktayā paśyanty ātmani cātmānaṁ bhaktyā śruta-gṛhītayā To make advancement on this path, you need śāstra. It has to be there. And if you don't have that, then it's going to be very difficult just to say, "Okay, I already have a higher taste; therefore, I won't be attracted to everything else." If you don't have that yet, you will be pulled back into the idea that maybe I can enjoy both things—I'll do devotional service and also enjoy the material world at the same time. And that doesn't work out well.

Dr Tabitha Stanmore is a historian and an expert in medieval and early modern English magic and witchcraft. Her book, “Cunning Folk: Life in the Era of Practical Magic” busts myths on the subject and focuses on the cultural impact of cunning folk, who would use magic to help people find items such as a spoon or help fix their love lives.

BFBS Forces News presents ‘Great British Battle Commanders' hosted by Professor Michael Clarke, Sitrep's defence analyst, assessing the leadership and strategy of Air Chief Marshal Sir Hugh Dowding with aviation historian, Dr Victoria Taylor. The interview is recorded in Dowding's former office in Bentley Priory, Stanmore, which was Headquarters Fighter Command during the Second World War.

Forget witches, broomsticks, and cauldrons bubbling over—when it came to real magic in Shakespeare's time, most people turned to their local cunning folk. These magical practitioners wielded spells to cure illnesses, recover lost items, and even spark a bit of romance. Far from the dark, devilish image popularly associated with witchcraft, cunning folk were trusted members of society, providing magical services as casually as a modern-day plumber or dentist. In this episode, Barbara Bogaev talks with Tabitha Stanmore, a scholar from the University of Essex, about the fascinating, overlooked world of practical magic in early modern England. Drawing from her new book, Cunning Folk: Life in the Era of Practical Magic, Stanmore sheds light on how cunning folk, who served as diviners, astrologers, charm makers, and healers, shaped the lives of both ordinary people and royals alike. These practitioners were called upon for everything from predicting the future to healing the sick, and their magic was seen as helpful, not harmful. Stanmore explains how these magical practices were woven into the fabric of daily life and how cunning folk managed to steer clear of the persecution that plagued so-called witches. Stanmore shares the fascinating methods cunning folk employed—from using bread and cheese to identify thieves to casting love spells with fish (seriously!)—and why their magic was essential in a world that still sought out supernatural help. If you thought magic in Shakespeare's time was all witches and broomsticks, think again—Stanmore takes us on a magical journey that's far more practical…and surprising. Tabitha Stanmore is a social historian of magic and witchcraft at the University of Exeter. She is part of the Leverhulme-funded Seven County Witch-Hunt Project, and her doctoral thesis was published as Love Spells and Lost Treasure: Service Magic in England from the Later Middle Ages to the Early Modern Period.

Imagine: it's the year 1600 and you've lost your precious silver spoons, or maybe they've been stolen. Perhaps your child has a fever. Or you're facing a trial. Maybe you're looking for love or escaping a husband. What do you do? In medieval and early modern Europe, your first port of call might have been cunning folk: practitioners of “service magic.” Neither feared (like witches), nor venerated (like saints), they were essential to daily life. For people across ages, genders, and social ranks, practical magic was a cherished resource for navigating life's many challenges. In historian Tabitha Stanmore's beguiling account, we meet lovelorn widows, dissolute nobles, selfless healers, and renegade monks. We listen in on Queen Elizabeth I's astrology readings and track treasure hunters trying to unearth buried gold without upsetting the fairies that guard it. Much like us, premodern people lived in a bewildering world, buffeted by forces beyond their control. As Stanmore reveals, their faith in magic has much to teach about how to accommodate the irrational in our allegedly enlightened lives today. Charming in every sense, Cunning Folk: Life in the Era of Practical Magic (Bloombury, 2024) is at once an immersive reconstruction of a bygone era and a thought-provoking commentary on the beauty and bafflement of being human. Tabitha Stanmore, PhD, is a specialist in medieval and early modern magic. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

This new episode of "Witch Hunt" features Dr. Tabitha Stanmore, discussing her research on service magic in 14th to 17th century Great Britain with Salem witch trial descendants Josh Hutchinson and Sarah Jack. She explains the concept of service magic, its practices, and the difference between service magicians and witches. Dr. Stanmore also touches on the impact of religious changes and laws on magic practices. Various aspects of magic, including healing methods, divination techniques, and the use of magic in daily life are delved into. Additionally,  she shares about her soon to release book, "Cunning Folk: Life in the Era of Practical Magic" and her collaboration on the Seven County Witch Hunt Project, which looks at the Matthew Hopkins witch trials of the 1640s.

Magic is ubiquitous across the world and throughout history. Yet if witchcraft is acknowledged as a persistent presence in the medieval and early modern eras, practical magic by contrast – performed to a useful end for payment, and actually more common than malign spellcasting – has been overlooked. In Love Spells and Lost Treasure: Service Magic in England from the Later Middle Ages to the Early Modern Era (Cambridge University Press, 2023), Dr. Tabitha Stanmore brings this world to light. Exploring many hundred instances of daily magical usage, and setting these alongside a range of imaginative and didactic literatures, Tabitha Stanmore demonstrates the entrenched nature of 'service' magic in premodern English society. This, she shows, was a type of spellcraft for needs that nothing else could address: one well established by the time of the infamous witch trials. The book explores perceptions of magical practitioners by clients and neighbours, and the way such magic was utilised by everyone: from lowliest labourer to highest lord. Stanmore reveals that – even if technically illicit – magic was for most people an accepted, even welcome, aspect of everyday life.  This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose forthcoming book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This week I'm talking to the lovely Lerona-Jayne Goldberg! When Lerona was 5 years old she sustained life-changing, permanent spinal injuries, leaving her paralysed from the waist down.  In September 2022, in honour of her 40th birthday, Lerona will be attempting the challenge of hand-cycling from London to Amsterdam, over two days and 136 miles, to raise funds for the charity and organisation that's supported her over the years - the Aspire Leisure Centre based in Stanmore, North London. For anyone suffering with an injury, Aspire was the first fully accessible fitness centre in Europe to open, back in 1983. It is now proud to say that over 32% of its members are disabled, compared to other gyms, where only 2-3% of disabled people feel there is a space for them to exercise.  I heard about this challenge via mutual friends of ours and I'd really like to help her out as much as possible. You can donate to Lerona's Just Giving page using the link here or below, and I implore you, whether it's one pound or a hundred please donate as generously as you're able to. All money raised, in excess of the cost of Lerona's equipment, will go directly to Aspire's housing programme. This provides essential equipment to maintain independence, for those living with spinal cord injuries. The money raised will also go to much-needed assisted technology, enabling disabled people to get back their independence and get back to work.  Donate to Lerona's JustGiving page here - justgiving.com/fundraising/lerona-jayne-goldberg Aspire - aspire.org.uk Aspire Leisure Centre - aspireleisurecentre.org.uk -- This episode is sponsored by MANSCAPED.

“Everyday Hero Pt 2” If you want to be inspired in how to reinvent your life, meet Len Stanmore. He is the only person on the planet who has climbed the death zones of 7 highest summits in 7 continents, skied the North and South Pole, crossed four deserts, and ran ultramarathons (100 - 250 km) in crazy treacherous conditions. As you will soon find out, he was not a natural born athlete. In fact, Len considers himself an everyday human who partied hard, ate takeout, drank beer and smoked cigars for decades. At the age of 48, he woke up and decided to try something new, something that would scare him. No matter what your fitness level (whether you are a beginner or an extreme athlete) or where you are at in life, Len will move you as he shares many life lessons through his stories through his successes, failures and near death experiences. Deepak Chopra says, “It's never too late to begin creating the bodies we want instead of the ones we mistakenly assume we are stuck with.” WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Why Len is the ONLY person to have ever summited 7 peaks! Age is merely a number, and you're never too advanced to make life-altering changes to diet, exercise and ambition! How Len conquered his fear of heights Why he needs something each day to look forward to How to ‘live in the moment' The role and POWER of gratitude in his life Why baby steps will get you there! How FOCUS and willpower can overrule distractions, pain and suffering Why emotions didn't get in the way of action and fulfilling his goals and purpose How he survived TWO near-death experiences Why he SHOULD be in the Guinness Book of Records, but isn't How and WHY he skied to both the North and South poles Why he's not strictly doing this for himself Find out more at @TrekkingforKids or https://trekkingforkids.org/ Contact us: @Drtanyawylde @aliveholistichealthclinic @meetmarywong Please like, comment, share, subscribe, give us a 5 star review on Apple podcasts, take a screen shot of you playing this episode & DM us on Instagram @embrace_you_first to enter to win a complimentary 30 minute consult with Dr. Wylde or Mary Wong each month!
