Palace Intrigue delivers explosive royal warfare as Meghan Markle deliberately sabotages Prince William's Rio Earthshot triumph by announcing her return to acting in Amazon MGM comedy Close Personal Friends. The Duchess appears as herself alongside Brie Larson and Lily Collins, with sources declaring "this is a massive moment for Meghan"—timed precisely to steal headlines from William's globally-televised ceremony with Kylie Minogue and Shawn Mendes. Alexander Larman exposes the calculated attack: "Although Harry claims Buckingham Palace was informed of his movements, it feels like a deliberate attempt to draw attention in his own direction." The Sussex moves continue undermining William's "tightly choreographed" reset after Andrew's disgrace.Meanwhile, explosive revelations expose Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor being offered a lavish 6-bedroom Abu Dhabi waterfront palace by UAE president—his longtime Gordonstoun school friend. The Sea Palace compound villa includes home cinema, indoor pool, gym, and gold-detailed fixtures, offering the disgraced royal a golden Middle Eastern exile. Plus, Kate takes leading Armistice Day role, while Max Hastings demands royal reform declaring Andrew the "rottenest apple."Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

In the early 2000s, a predator was stalking the quiet towns and villages that circle London — communities linked not by proximity, but by terror. Over twelve months, women across Kent, Surrey, Sussex, and Hertfordshire were attacked in their homes, in parks, and on suburban streets. The press would call him “The M25 Rapist.” In this episode of Seeing Red, we uncover the crimes of Antoni Imiela — a seemingly ordinary family man whose violent attacks left police baffled and women afraid to walk alone. We'll trace how DNA evidence finally exposed him, the shocking scale of his crimes, and the chilling arrogance of a man who believed he'd never be caught. Because sometimes, the most dangerous monsters aren't hiding in the city — they're living right next door. Why not BINGE our back catalogue of over a HUNDRED Patreon exclusive bonus episodes?

The Duchess of Sussex dropped a sleek new As Ever teaser, sparking buzz about another lifestyle launch, while Nobody Wants This slipped in a cheeky joke about her and Harry's royal romance.

From orchards to Hollywood punchlines, it's another eventful day in Montecito.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 27ú lá de mí Dheireadh Fómhair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 saolaíodh bean ceathrairíní sa tír agus tháinig sé amach go raibh sé rud speisialta mar ag an am níor tharla sé seo an iomarca. Dúirt an bhean bhí an bhreith go breá. I 2006 dhearbhaigh Aer Lingus an oíche roimhe go mbeadh gearradh siar ar bpost chun airgead a shábháil agus gan a bheith I gcomórtas le Ryanair.

I 2006 tháinig sé amach go raibh cuir siar ar an soláthar d'uisce ól d'Inis agus lochtaigh fear a bhí ailse aige agus dúirt sé bhí sé míchaoithiúlacht mhór. Dúirt sé nach raibh taithí aige mar seo I 27 bliain ina raibh sé ina chónaí san Afraic Theas. Sin My Chemical Romance le Welcome To The Black Parade – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2006. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2006 tháinig Amy Winehouse amach lena dara halbam Back To Black agus bhí sé seo a albam deireanach. I 2007 mháirseáil Keith Richards leis an lucht agóide a raibh ag agóid I gcoinne gearradh siar san ospidéal I Sussex. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Kelly Osbourne sa Bhreatain I 1984 agus rugadh aisteoir John Cleese sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1939 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé.

An open letter released Wednesday has called for a ban on the development of artificial intelligence systems considered to be “superintelligent” until there is broad scientific consensus that such technologies can be created both safely and in a manner the public supports. The statement, issued by the nonprofit Future of Life Institute, has been signed by more than 700 individuals, including Nobel laureates, technology industry veterans, policymakers, artists, and public figures such as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The letter reflects deep and accelerating concerns over projects undertaken by technology giants like Google, OpenAI, and Meta Platforms that are seeking to build artificial intelligence capable of outperforming humans on virtually every cognitive task. According to the letter, such ambitions have raised fears about unemployment due to automation, loss of human control and dignity, national security risks, and the possibility of far-reaching social or existential harms. “We call for a prohibition on the development of superintelligence, not lifted before there is broad scientific consensus that it will be done safely and controllably, and strong public buy-in,” the statement reads. Signatories include AI pioneers Yoshua Bengio and Geoffrey Hinton, both recipients of the Turing Award, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, businessman Richard Branson, and actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Pentagon personnel could soon be told to participate in new training programs designed to prepare them for anticipated advancements in biotechnology and its convergence with other critical and emerging technologies, like quantum computing and AI. House lawmakers recently passed an amendment en bloc in their version of the fiscal 2026 National Defense Authorization Act that would mandate the secretary of defense to set up such trainings, no later than one year after the legislation's enactment. Biotechnology refers to a multidisciplinary field that involves the application of biological systems or the use of living organisms, like yeast and bacteria, to produce products or solve complex problems. These technologies are expected to revolutionize defense, energy, manufacturing and other sectors globally in the not-so-distant future — particularly as they are increasingly paired with and powered by AI. And while the U.S. historically has demonstrated many underlying strengths in the field, recent research suggests the government may be falling behind China, where biotechnology research efforts and investments have surged since the early 2000s.

Thanks for joining us at Behind Greatness. We sit down with Philip Carr-Gomm, who joins us from his home in the country in Sussex, England. Philip works, thinks and plays at the cross-section of psychology and spiritualism. He is an author and lecturer and works as a psychologist and psychotherapist. For decades he has rooted his spiritualism in Druidry and he is one of today's most public Druids. We discuss a ton: trees as our spiritual companions, “surrendering”, dropping down a hole in New Zealand, lucid dreaming and the big self, helping child-soldiers, pushing the gorilla down into the basement and another Druid - Winston Churchill.   Never quite finished with his exploration, Philip is always making progress.   Philip, Website: https://philipcarr-gomm.com/ “Know Thyself”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_thyself   To give to the Behind Greatness podcast, please visit here: https://behindgreatness.org.

If you've ever tried to push away anxiety or depression when they show up, you probably already know: Fighting these complex, difficult emotions usually doesn't work. In fact, our resistance often makes the experience even more challenging.  In today's practice, Ed Halliwell offers a guided visualization based on a foundational mindful question: What if you don't try to push this experience away, but instead watch it as it plays out?  Ed Halliwell is a mindfulness teacher and writer, based in Sussex and London, UK. He is author of three books: Into The Heart of Mindfulness, How To Live Well By Paying Attention and (as co-author) The Mindful Manifesto and teaches courses and retreats to public groups, in organizations and to individuals, face-to-face and online via Skype. He is also an advisor to The Mindfulness Initiative, which is supporting the Mindfulness All-Party Parliamentary Group to develop mindfulness-based policies for the UK. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.

Go Deeper Anxiety, panic, and depression can sometimes feel like a vortex we're sucked into that's impossible to get out of. It's important to understand that mindfulness and meditation aren't cure-alls or instant fixes, and that they're most effective when used in concert with other healing modalities. There are practices that can help us be with thoughts and feelings in a compassionate, non-judgmental way—and this open-hearted approach can often loosen the grip of difficult moments.

Access Valora here and get personalised actions for growth > ‍ The Truth About Coaching Through Imposter Syndrome So many coaches and consultants encounter clients who hold themselves back—not because they lack skills, but because they quietly believe they don't deserve success. ‍ In this episode of The Brilliant Book Festival, I'm joined by Clare Josa, author of Ditching Imposter Syndrome and now her follow-up book: Coaching Imposter Syndrome. ‍ Clare has spent more than two decades helping people break free from imposter syndrome. Now her mission is bigger: to equip coaches, consultants and leaders with safe, practical tools to recognise and respond to imposter syndrome when it shows up in their sessions. ‍ She also reveals the myths still circulating about imposter syndrome, why it's not the same as self-doubt, and how AI might just play a surprising role in helping people feel more confident and capable. ‍ If you've ever wondered how to tell the difference between skills-based self-doubt and deeper identity-level imposter syndrome, this conversation will open your eyes. ‍ Prefer to WATCH? https://www.youtube.com/@melittacampbell ‍‍ ‍ “Imposter syndrome isn't a life sentence. It's something you can spot, understand and clear.” – Clare Josa ‍ Beyond Self-Doubt: Spotting the Real Signs Clare explains that self-doubt is about skills, while imposter syndrome cuts deeper — it's about identity. ‍ Self-doubt sounds like: “I don't know enough, I need more experience.” Imposter syndrome sounds like: “I'm not good enough. They'll find me out.” This distinction matters, because the tools that help with self-doubt often fail when the issue is imposter syndrome. Coaches who miss this can leave clients feeling stuck or even unsafe. ‍ The Myths Holding Us Back In recent years, imposter syndrome has gained visibility, but with that has come misinformation. Clare shares how some dismiss it as: ‍ “Just self-doubt in disguise.” “A construct designed to hold women back.” Her response? Labels aside, what matters is helping people recognise the patterns keeping them small, and giving them tools to move forward. ‍ “Confidence grows fastest when you have the right tools and support at your fingertips.” – Clare Josa ‍ ‍ Practical Tools for Coaches Clare's new book and app provide 26 simple, safe tools coaches can use the moment imposter syndrome gatecrashes a session. These tools help coaches to: ‍ Clear limiting patterns without opening emotional “Pandora's boxes.” Shift their clients mindset fast with confidence and safety. Give coaches clarity on how far to go — and when to signpost deeper support. The goal isn't to turn every coach into an imposter syndrome specialist, but to equip them with the confidence to help clients without overstepping. ‍ ‍ Imposter Syndrome, Introverts and Change Clare also clears up another myth: imposter syndrome doesn't only affect introverts. Both introverts and extroverts experience it, but they cope differently: ‍ Introverts tend to overthink. Extroverts tend to overact. And because imposter syndrome is linked to identity, it often surfaces during times of transition—like stepping into a new role, raising prices, or navigating fast-changing technology. ‍ AI as a Confidence Companion Perhaps most intriguing, Clare has developed Ask Clare AI — an app trained on millions of her own words to give coaches, managers and individuals real-time support between sessions. ‍ It's not designed to replace the coach, but to act as a safe, trauma-informed resource when self-doubt or fear strikes in the moment. ‍ ‍ A Final Thought to Reflect On Coaching through imposter syndrome isn't about fixing clients — it's about helping them reconnect with who they really are. ‍ When coaches can spot the difference between self-doubt and identity-level struggle, and when they have the tools to guide clients safely through those first steps, everyone benefits. ‍ As Clare reminds us, the real goal is bigger than overcoming imposter syndrome. It's about building a world where people feel comfortable in their own skin, confident in their contribution, and free to reach their full potential. ‍ So instead of asking, “How do I help my clients push through self-doubt?” try asking, “How can I give them the tools and confidence to break free from imposter syndrome for good?” ‍ That small shift in perspective can change not just a coaching session, but the whole trajectory of a client's success. ‍ ‍ ‍ About Clare Clare Josa has been a leadership mentor since 2003. She's the author of eight books, including Dare To Dream Bigger and Ditching Imposter Syndrome. She was certified as an NLP Trainer in 2003, and is also a formally-trained Meditation and Yoga Teacher Teacher, a Reformed Engineer and the former Head of Market Research for one of the UK's most disruptive companies.  ‍ Clare has spent more than a decade specialising in empowering passionate world-changers to do the ‘inside work' so that you can get on with making a difference in the world. As co-founder of the EU VAT Action campaign in 2014, she has had to overcome any remaining ‘visibility' fears, to stand on international stages (European Parliament, Downing Street, IoD) in front of people who had been studying what she was giving keynotes on for most of their careers. ‍ She is regularly interviewed by the international press and has been interviewed by numerous radio and TV stations. She is a member of the UK's Institute of Directors and she speaks internationally about how to change the world by changing yourself. ‍ Clare lives in Sussex, in the UK, with her husband, their 3 young boys, a bouncy Jack Russell, a totally loopy springer spaniel, and 10 mindful chickens.  ‍ Read Clare's Books: Ditching Imposter Syndrome ‍‍                                         Coaching Imposter Syndrome.

Today Donald Trump's newly unveiled peace plan for Gaza has already been hailed by some world leaders as the best chance to end Israel's war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threw his support behind it at a joint press conference with the US President - and it has been backed by a number of Arab nations including Qatar and Egypt. But is it a viable solution to ending the conflict? David Wearing, an Assistant Professor in International Relations at the University of Sussex, and expert on UK foreign relations in the Middle East, joins us with the latest. And in part two, The Standard's Business Editor Jonathan Prynn is here to discuss the revival of London's fine dining scene. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week delivered royal chaos on an epic scale! Seven major charities dumped Sarah Ferguson faster than a hot potato after explosive emails revealed she called Jeffrey Epstein a "supreme friend" just weeks after publicly vowing to cut ties forever. But that wasn't the worst of it - new allegations emerged about Prince Andrew's involvement in a Thai orgy with over 40 women, described by witnesses as "industrial scale" encounters funded by taxpayers! Meanwhile, Prince Harry quietly registered six-year-old Archie for Eton College in a stunning move that could see the Sussex and Cambridge cousins educated together - only to have his spokesperson deny everything by Friday! Palace insiders are still furious over Harry's Guardian interview, with sources saying "his mouth is his biggest problem." Plus: William and Charles held crisis talks at Balmoral about keeping the monarchy united, Kate delivered a tear-jerking tribute to the Southport victims, Princess Anne gave underwire bra advice at a lingerie factory, and Meghan got publicly dumped by a reality TV star after snubbing her with gift boxes!

Palace Intrigue delivers the most shocking royal revelation yet as Prince Harry secretly registers six-year-old Archie for Eton College—the same elite boarding school attended by Prince William, Harry himself, and future king Prince George. This explosive move suggests Harry plans to bring his son back to the UK despite the devastating family feud, with Archie potentially sharing classrooms with his royal cousins.Insiders reveal Harry feels his children are "missing out on the extensive family network" enjoyed by William's kids, though Meghan may need convincing about the plan. The security-heavy school would reunite the next generation of royals, with friends noting "statistically, Eton would be safer than an American school thanks to their gun laws."Meanwhile, royal biographer Ingrid Seward decodes Meghan's carefully chosen Harry birthday photo, suggesting she selected his "hunkiest" pre-marriage military image for strategic reasons. Plus, Harry's secret condolence visit to the Duke of Kent reveals his continued royal connections, while Spitting Image brutally satirizes the Sussex brand with puppet parodies of their Netflix ventures.From secret school plans to puppet mockery, this episode exposes Harry's desperate attempts to bridge two worlds while the royal war rages on.
