Britain's upper class isn't a relic of the past—it's still here, still powerful, and still shaping the land beneath our feet. In this gripping episode, journalist and author Eleanor Doughty dismantles the pervasive myth that the aristocracy simply “disappeared” in the 20th century. Spoiler: they didn't. They just got quieter.Eleanor takes us inside the private estates, inherited titles, and soft power that still define the modern British upper class. With first-hand insight from years spent interviewing dukes, earls, viscounts and secretive landowners, she exposes how much influence remains—and why we've failed to notice.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the British aristocracy never died out—and why people think it didHow 3 million acres of the UK remain in hereditary handsThe difference between the “Premier League” and “Super League” of landownersWhy stately homes aren't all romance and Downton glamourHow Wentworth Woodhouse became ground zero for political and industrial conflictWhat domestic service really looked like—far from the usual Upstairs/Downstairs tropesWhy land, not politics, is the true modern source of aristocratic powerHow soft power, titles, and inherited prestige shape British society even todayAbout Our Guest: Eleanor DoughtyEleanor Doughty is a journalist and the author of

Das Spitzenspiel der Swiss Super League zwischen dem FC Thun und dem FC St. Gallen endet 2:2 – ein Resultat, das vor allem dem Leader aus dem Berner Oberland hilft. Thun hält den komfortablen Vorsprung von 14 Punkten und kann sich nun auf das Derby gegen die BSC Young Boys freuen. Auch dahinter bleibt die Liga in Bewegung: Der FC Basel feiert einen etwas schmeichelhaften Sieg gegen den Grasshopper Club Zürich – obwohl ein taktisches Experiment mit Xherdan Shaqiri nicht wirklich aufgeht. Beim FC Zürich tut sich derweil einiges neben dem Platz: Neue Transfers betreffen nicht nur den Kader, sondern auch die Trainerbank und die Geschäftsstelle. Und der FC St. Gallen zeigt erneut, warum viele ihn aktuell als zweitstärkste Mannschaft der Super League sehen. Das alles und mehr besprechen wir in einer Bonusfolge von «Dritte Halbzeit» – dem Podcast für alle, die den Schweizer Fussball und die Super League Woche für Woche verfolgen.  Die Themen:  00:00 Vorstellung 02:12 Unentschieden im Spitzenspiel 14:34 Schmeichelhafter FCB-Sieg 25:46 Der FCZ holt Bernegger und Aebli 35:46 Startet jetzt die YB-Serie?

Stephan Lichtsteiner erlebt eine Premiere als FCB-Trainer: Zwei Siege in Folge, dazu seine zweite gelbe Karte und wieder einmal ordentlich Gesprächsstoff. Nicht nur mit dem Schiedsrichter, sondern auch mit GC-Captain Abrashi. Lichtsteiner eckt an, zeigt Kante und sagt klar: «Für Emotionen muss ich mich nicht entschuldigen.» Sportlich geht es um Fortschritte, aber auch um offene Baustellen. Der FCB gewinnt gegen GC zu Null, zum ersten Mal seit Mitte Dezember. Stephan Gutknecht bilanziert: «Der Start war gut, danach baute Basel stark ab.» In der zweiten Halbzeit wurde es wieder stabiler, trotzdem blieb es bis zum Schluss eng. Im Fokus stehen mehrere Personalien: Becir Omeragic überzeugt mit einem starken Einstand, wirkt sofort wie ein Chef in der Defensive und gibt der Mannschaft Stabilität. Metinho ist zurück und schliesst die Lücken als fleissiger Scheibenwischer vor der Abwehr. Diskutiert wird auch Shaqiris Rolle auf dem Flügel, wo er weniger Einfluss aufs Spiel hatte und zur Pause angeschlagen raus musste. Lichtsteiner erklärt, dass man von Match zu Match entscheiden müsse, was für das Team die beste Lösung sei. Unser Podcast-Duo spricht auch über die neuen FIFA-Regeln. Mehr VAR-Eingriffe, strengere Zeitspiel-Kontrollen und weitere Anpassungen, die den Fussball verändern könnten. Kevin Wandji Tchatat steht dem, als «Traditionalist» kritisch gegenüber. Zum Schluss: Der FC Basel kann mit einem Sieg gegen den FC St. Gallen die Lücke zu den Europacup-Plätzen verkürzen. Dafür muss der FCB sauber am Ball sein, defensiv wach bleiben und im Umschalten konsequent zuschlagen. Den «Penalty-Podcast» gibt es jeden Freitagabend.

The Great Coaches: Leadership & Life

Our great coach on this episode is Samantha Bird. Sam is a Netball Coach. As a player she represented England but retired at 24 after a knee injury. She then carved out a long career as a lawyer working with the London Metropolitan Police. In 2005 the United Kingdon Netball Super League was formed and Sam started as an Assistant with the London Mavericks. She became the team head coach in 2014. In 2016 she was appointed as the head coach for the new franchise the Severn Stars. In 2019 she then became the Head Coach of the London Pulse leading them to the treble of the Super League title, Super Cup, and NPL tournament in 2025. 3 questions the interview with Sam challenged me with were:•Is my organization the type of place where people know somebody will have their back if they are having a bad day?•Am I engaging with me mentors enough to frame challenging questions of myself•Am I calling out example of ambition and bravery enough?If you would like to send us any feedback or if you know a great coach, who has a unique story to share, then we would love to hear from you, please contact us at paul@thegreatcoachespodcast.com or contact us through our website thegreatcoachespodcast.com Hosted on Acast.

Trotzdem bleibt die ganz grosse Euphorie im Berner Oberland aus. Warum eigentlich? Ist man in Thun zu abgeklärt für kollektive Ekstase? Oder sitzt die Erinnerung an frühere Abstürze noch zu tief? Bei den BSC Young Boys stehen plötzlich wieder zwei schlagkräftige Stürmer bereit – wobei der 15-Tore-Mann Chris Bedia nur die Nummer 2 ist.  Beim FC Basel ist mit Giacomo Koloto (plötzlich) ein neuer Fixpunkt in der Offensive gefunden worden.

*** WERBUNG: Hier geht es zum Spezialangebot fürs Recovery Pillow von Blackroll (Rabattcode: Halbzeit10) *** Noch zwölf Runden sind in der Schweizer Super League zu spielen – doch die wichtigsten Fragen sind bereits beantwortet: Der FC Thun wird Meister, der FC Winterthur  steigt ab, und der Grasshopper Club Zürich steuert zum dritten Mal in Folge auf die Barrage zu. Oder kommt es in den nächsten Wochen doch noch zur grossen Wende? In Basel kritisiert Trainer Stephan Lichtsteiner sein Team bemerkenswert deutlich – möglicherweise sogar mit Rückendeckung der Clubführung um Präsident David Degen. Die Young Boys verlieren erneut und lassen die Diskussionen um Christoph Spycher wieder aufflammen. Und GC steht in der öffentlichen Wahrnehmung viel besser da, als es die sportlichen Leistungen vermuten lassen. Warum?

Five minutes. One roaring heartbeat. We pulled the most electric moments from recent conversations to map the real pathway from college fields to professional women's soccer, and why the loudest force on that journey is the crowd. From the crackling atmosphere at Razorback Field to the rising tide of NWSL expansion and the women's Super League, we trace how fan culture, accessible tickets, and local identity transform a game night into a career engine.We talk candidly about the thrill of standing on the sideline during a late heartbreaker, the kind that makes you both ache and believe. Players feed on that energy, and rivals fear it for a reason. In a state without major pro teams, high-level women's soccer becomes the main stage. That closeness invites newcomers to fall in love with the sport, cheap seats, open air, and ninety minutes where your voice matters. The result is a feedback loop: bigger crowds create better platforms, which create more minutes, more contracts, and more reasons to dream.You'll hear how friends are thriving across the NWSL, logging every minute, landing sponsorships, and proving staying power, and why many never imagined a pro future until the league's growth made it tangible. The Super League adds fuel, opening fresh markets and giving players real minutes to sharpen their game. Then we connect the dots locally with Ozark United, a regional bridge that turns potential into a plan by anchoring a community club fans can claim and players can aim for.If you care about the future of women's soccer, this is your snapshot of progress you can feel: supporters who won't sit down, clubs that build ladders, and players who just want to keep playing at the highest level. Listen now, share it with a friend who needs a reason to go to a match, and leave a review to help more fans find the show.

Matt Peet is one of the most decorated coaches in British sport. In just three years as Wigan Warriors head coach, he's won seven major trophies including back-to-back Super League titles, the World Club Challenge, and a historic clean sweep in 2024 - all before turning 42. And he never played professional rugby league.Rising from coaching 12-year-olds on muddy fields to leading Britain's most successful club, Matt has built a dynasty through an uncompromising philosophy: culture comes first, trophies follow. At Wigan, that means aligning vision, attitude, and behaviour, and building a team where learning, honesty, and care matter as much as winning.In this episode, Matt sits down with Damian to reveal how that culture is lived every day. He shares why his most important question is always "What did we learn?" - even after victories - and how creating psychological safety allows players to challenge coaches, coaches to apologise, and everyone to grow. Matt also opens up about ownership, vulnerability, and connection. From taking full responsibility for every error on the field, to sharing his own struggles with the group - he explains how shared responsibility and mateship show up when pressure is highest.This is a masterclass in leadership beyond tactics. From a philosophy graduate who never made it as a player to the coach Sir Kevin Sinfield says he'd have "loved to play for”.Our partners: Heights

A sleepy town of 22,000 people in southern Slovakia is home to a top-flight football club that is challenging for national titles and boasts an ultra-modern, sleek stadium that is entirely out of step with its surroundings – thanks to money from abroad.We paid a visit to Dunajská Streda to watch local team DAC 1904 play domestic giants Slovan Bratislava in a top-of-the table clash in Slovakia. But this was no ordinary game. It was the most politically charged football match we've ever seen.The reason for that lies far beyond the football pitch. Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is funding clubs in neighbouring countries as part of a broader political strategy – one that may help him win re-election in April and shape the balance of power in the EU.Elsewhere, the Copa Libertadores is reportedly preparing to invite guest clubs from Mexico and the US to participate in the competition starting in 2027, while Chinese football has hit a new low after nine of the Super League's 16 clubs were deducted points.Chapters00:00 - Intro01:49 - Live game: DAC 1904 v Slovan Bratislava14:32 - Viktor Orbán's political power play21:18 - Copa Libertadores guest invitations23:04 - Analysis from Jon Arnold25:59 - China's Super League low point27:21 - Analysis from John DuerdenSources for the lead storyAtlatszo: https://english.atlatszo.hu/2018/12/11/the-orban-government-spent-billions-on-hungarian-football-clubs-in-serbia-romania-and-slovakiaBalkan Insight: https://balkaninsight.com/2025/07/08/hungary-and-croatia-build-stadium-for-e7-5-million-in-village-of-500-inhabitantsDenník: https://dennikn.sk/1380564/bolo-to-ako-vojna-bitka-policajtov-s-fanusikmi-dunajskej-stredy-po-ktorej-sa-zmenil-zakon/Radio Free Europe: https://www.rferl.org/a/hungary-orban-sport-influence-romania/31977287.htmlSalzburger Nachrichten:https://www.sn.at/sport/fussball/international/dac-dunajska-streda-orbans-aushaengeschild-in-der-slowakei-art-371392

Die unterhaltsamste Liga überhaupt ist um einen spektakulären Spieltag reicher. In Lugano glänzt Kevin Behrens, in Thun Elmin Rastoder und in St. Gallen Jérémy Guillemenot.Überragt werden sie alle von Xherdan Shaqiri, der mit einer famosen Leistung an den sich selbst aus der letzten Saison erinnert. Drei Tore und ein Assist, dieser dazu noch fabelhaft, sammelt er am Sonntag beim 4:3 in letzter Minute gegen den FC Zürich – inklusive Siegtreffer in der 94. Minute, versteht sich.Spektakel pur also im Letzigrund, aber wohl zu viel, um Ludovic Magnin den Job zu retten. Die Leistungen der letzten Wochen, die in einem desolaten 1:3 gegen Salzburg gipfelten, sprachen nicht für ihn, es gibt Stimmen, die sagen, schon vor dem Spiel gegen den FCZ sei klar gewesen, dass dies Magnins letztes als FCB-Trainer sein würde.Darüber sprechen wir in der 327.
