Emotional episode today! At least for me. We examine the Catholic Church's long history of sex scandals, including extremely troublesome recent coverups, how the priesthood came to be, whether or not celibacy is a realistic expectation, how the priesthood may entice pedophiles to join, and so much more. We'll examine the history of the church's views on sexuality. Why did they choose celibacy for priests? Does it have any scriptural basis? How does not allowing priests to have a sexual life (or at least forcing them to do so in secrecy) affect their psychological development/health? Mostly, we look into how long sex scandals within the church have been happening, how pervasive they are, and if they're going away anytime soon.

On 22nd May 2017, the city of Manchester was rocked when a terrorist attack hit the Manchester Arena. One of the worst atrocities in British history, the response to this chilling tragedy saw the very best of humanity. On the 23rd May, the very next evening, thousands of people joined together in Albert Square for a vigil that stressed the importance of peace and tolerance. In the midst of that response was one man, an ordinary Mancunian with an extraordinary talent. Tony Walsh, now world-famous for his rendition that day of his stirring poem 'This Is The Place' - an homage to his home city of Manchester - was selected to represent the beating heart of this great city and its people. Visibly emotional yet holding the thousands before him in his hands, Tony told the crowd, in his inimitable style, to "...always remember, never forget - choose love, Manchester." A local lad who rose from poverty to leave his mark on the entire country, Tony's meteoric rise saw his talent and skill requested by The Fed, to help create a moving word poem that would tell the story of the organisation's 150 year history. The result of that partnership - 'Not Alone' - has been viewed by thousands of people across the world and is a moving tribute to burgeoning Jewish community that flourished in Greater Manchester. Recorded in August 2021, this episode is released to coincide with the fifth anniversary of that tragic day in Manchester's history, to celebrate Tony's immeasurable skill and passion that brought comfort and pride to so many, and to hear first-hand from a Mancunian legend who is truly a Human of The Fed.

She joins Front Row to discuss her debut single as a singer-songwriter, performing as a musician in wheelchair, and she’ll be singing live on the show. As the lockdown eases for some next week, those heading into Manchester city centre will see posters featuring a new poem by Tony Walsh, aka Longfella, called The Sum of Us.

He joins Front Row to talk about the new work and perform an extract from it. Presenter: Katie Popperwell Producer: Ekene Akalawu

Leading writers Stuart Maconie, Kit de Waal, Tony Walsh and Lisa McInerney consider what it means to be a working-class writer working in the publishing industry today “It’s the last great unspoken prejudice in British life, and that runs through everywhere – particularly some of the areas of the media I work in, like publishing and broadcasting” Stuart Maconie --- The Common People anthology brought together 16 leading working-class writers with 17 new unpublished working-class writers to create a picture of working-class life in Britain today. As part of the opportunity, the 17 new writers were also offered a 12-month professional development programme to support their entry into the publishing industry, working alongside mentors and England’s seven regional literature development agencies, with Unbound and Arts Council England. Now, to coincide with a new report by Professor Katy Shaw of Northumbria University, Common People: Breaking the Class Ceiling in UK Publishing, we are delighted to present this special episode of the New Writing North podcast. This episode brings together several of the established authors who featured in the Common People anthology, including Stuart Maconie, Kit de Waal, Tony Walsh, Lisa McInerney, with writer and academic Dave O’Brien and new writers Jodie Russian-Red and Shaun Wilson. The episode also features Jonathan Paterson, a Finance Director at the Hachette UK Group, and Clara Farmer, Publishing Director of Chatto & Windus. Together they consider the experience of working-class writers and publishers working in the UK, identify some of the pervasive barriers which mean that the publishing industry fails to represent a huge proportion of the British public, and consider what change could look like. Produced by Philippa Geering for New Writing North The Common People Writing Development Programme was produced by literature development agencies New Writing North, Writing West Midlands, New Writing South, National Centre for Writing, Writing East Midlands and Literature Works and Spread the Word with support from Arts Council England.

The changing technological landscape has had an immense influence on the way the creative media industries deliver content to audiences. As content continues to shift from physical to digital formats the same evolution is also happening for sales channels, triggering the rise of new platforms and methods of distribution. What are the challenges in getting a market-ready creative work, regardless of the sector it comes from, through the existing and evolving distribution paths and to the end-user who can be either in Canada or abroad? OMDC commissioned and recently launched a study on this subject. Hear from the study authors how Ontario content owners are creatively navigating the challenges of the shifting distribution landscape to successfully deliver their content to audiences around the world.
