"Take On Me" by A-ha is an iconic hit of the 1980s. It came out in October 1985 with an equally iconic music video that helped define the age of MTV. It hit #1 in the US and in countries all over the world. And it's still massively popular today. It currently has over two and a half billion streams on Spotify. So, with all of that, it's easy to imagine that this was all inevitable. But actually, the song took so many steps and missteps before it became the hit that everybody knows. I talked to Paul Waaktaar-Savoy from A-ha, who wrote the original bones of the song back when he was a teenager in Norway, years before it came out. The song actually came out and flopped TWICE in the UK, before it found a foothold in the US. So for this episode, Paul took me through the whole history of the song, and all the different versions that existed. And he told me how he and his bandmates, Magne Furuholmen and Morten Harket, pushed and pushed and persevered. "Take On Me" was their first single as a band, and it made them the most successful Norwegian pop group of all time.For more info, visit songexploder.net/a-ha.

Nearly a year ago, mysterious drones of unknown origin began buzzing military bases and other sensitive sites, mostly in the eastern U.S. They swooped in out of nowhere, hovered and maneuvered over airfields, didn't try to hide their presence, and could not be tracked when they abruptly departed. Entire U.S. bases were shut down, including Langley and Wright-Patterson AFB. Similar incursions were reported at joint bases in the UK, where personnel deployed advanced anti-drone tech - with no effect. Now, several European countries are experiencing similarly troubling incursions. In recent weeks, mystery drones have caused fear and confusion in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and Belgium. Governments suspect the drones are being controlled by Russia, though there isn't a shred of evidence to prove that, and these drones cannot be tracked or brought down. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George are joined by British journalist Chris Sharp, editor and founder of the Liberation Times, whose insightful coverage of the mystery drones over the past year is among the best in the world. Chris shares new information about the most recent incursions, has insight about attempts to track and disable the mystery drones, and speculates about why the drone invasions might be a measured response by earthly forces, payback for something that was initiated by NATO allies. Also in this episode, additional information about a gigantic black triangle spotted hovering over a runway at Eglin Air Force Base, as described by an eyewitness in a previous episode.

Patrick addresses controversies around UK misgendering laws, the growing pains of multiculturalism, and immigration’s impact on Western identity. Callers spark lively reflection on family Mass routines, Muslims praying in European churches, and the loss of Catholic spaces, with Patrick sharing personal stories and issuing strong opinions about faith, society, and the turmoil facing Christians worldwide. Tension, raw honesty, and glimpses of hope land side by side in a fast-moving blend of current affairs, candid audience exchanges, and striking spiritual insights. Audio: UK Resident “I now have a criminal record because I wrote in the Critic magazine that my stalker was a man. Because he is a man.” (00:20) Alejandro - I am an usher. They recommend going to another separate mass so that you can focus. (03:27) Sarah - Muslims asking for a prayer area. I do think there should be reciprocity and do agree with you. Muslims want to take over and show dominance. (05:18) Rusty - Free donuts and coffee are just things that the Church does to encourage teens (and others) to come to mass. (11:52) Kris (email) - Not to belabor the usher at communion topic, but I think just saying “we’re all adults” as it relates to our ability to use order when queuing up for communion can easily be refuted by the example people set for exiting an airplane (16:37) Nancy - I think politicians are ignorant and don't know enough about Islam to have an informed policy (18:13) Kathy - Muslims and Islam. I am bothered by people who say Christians and Muslims can coexist when they don’t realize that Muslims want to dominate Christians. Also, it bothers me that Catholic dioceses sell property to Muslims. (23:32) Carol - I think that the Church and Western countries are starting to adhere to Islam. (26:09) Carolyn - I found Mary's belt in Damascus. Is the Assumption biblical? (28:36) Therese - I was born and raised in Nigeria. I am from the Eastern part. They keep killing us and want every Nigerian to be Muslim. (31:22) Tony - How do I refute the Mormon practice of Baptism of the Dead? (35:22)

RHLSTP #584 - Eleven Holes? - It's approaching the end of the Fringe (for Rich at least) and his guest is, I think we can all agree, at least his equal as a ventriloquist, Nina Conti. They talk about her fantastic new independent film, Sunlight, how it's a dark love story about a suicidal man, a woman in a monkey suit and an attempt to dig up a grave to recover a $20,000 dollar watch, but so much more than that. How the idea and the real life love began in the middle of a 50 hour improv session, the dangers of going under water in a monkey suit, how the film might appeal to Furries, how it could never be written by AI and why you should definitely see it. Plus how Nina ended up in Spinal Tap 2 and a good indication of why Richard didn't, how ventriloquist dummies become their own people (or monkeys), the dark past of ventriloquists and whether Nina resents her monkey.Nina's directorial debut film 'Sunlight' will have a UK theatrical release from 18th October 2025 (screening details here), or you can pre-order it on Apple TV here (UK) and here (Ireland) - available digitally from 28th November 2025.Nina Conti has a UK tour extension of her hit live show 'Whose Face Is It Anyway?' from 30th September - 30th October 2025.

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

The TikTok tour de force talks about '90s electronica, UK garage and her 2025 mixtape, Fancy Some More? There's a new generation of artists who've come up almost entirely online, and perhaps the breakthrough star of the TikTok music era is PinkPantheress. A few years ago, the British 24-year-old quietly strategised how to game the social media algorithm and get her songs to go viral. She succeeded—and became a headliner practically overnight. She's openly talked about how she got there, including writing songs in short formats and using confessional, diaristic lyrics to capture the hearts of her growing audience. Today, PinkPantheress is promoting her 2025 mixtape, Fancy Some More?, which heavily references the UK club sounds of the '90s and early '00s, blended seamlessly with contemporary electronica and pop. In this interview with RA's Joelle Robinson, she dives into the making of this release, and candidly reflects on navigating her newfound fame and overcoming the challenges, both personal and professional, that have accompanied a high-intensity touring life. She also reveals her aspirations for the future—which include big plans to reach yet another level of success—and her dreams for the broader electronic music landscape, too.

This week, our Patreon voted for us to explore the music and career of Dead or Alive, the British pop band responsible for the endlessly catchy and danceable 1985 single, “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record).” Led by the eccentric and androgynous Pete Burns, Dead or Alive were a perfect mix of the end of disco and the start of new wave. Their rise up the indie charts in the UK led them to a major label, but even then, it was the band's belief in themselves and their music that resulted in the massive hit that has stood the test of time. Should you be spinning the REST of the Dead or Alive's records right round though? That's what we'll be deciding this week.

Anita Harwood needs our help finding a man named Marty who helped her on that fateful day of September 11th, 2001. This is one woman's good journey, traveling from the UK to the United States to attend a Michael Jackson concert, only to find herself in the middle of New York City on the morning when everything changed. It's also the story of kindness, specifically the kindness of one stranger who said yes when 18 year old Anita and her best friend needed it most. We found this story on Upworthy's Instagram page and reached out to Anita to see if she might want to come on World Gone Good, tell her story, and see if you, our good audience, might be able to help out in finding the missing Marty. If 9/11 taught us anything, it is this: good or bad, we are all in this together. Give a listen to Anita to see if you might be the person who helps her locate this stranger to give him the hug and thank you she's been waiting over 24 years to give him. _____________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

What makes a Pét Nat cider sparkle naturally and how is it connected to the rural method you might have heard about in the UK? In this episode, we take a practical look at: What Pét Nat cider is and how it relates to the “rural method” A clearer way to describe fermentation: Active Ferment → Quiet Phase → Maturation When and how to rack cider for clarity and flavor How to time bottling for perfect natural carbonation Using a hydrometer to bottle safely at 1.005–1.010 SG Essential tips for bottle-conditioning without blowouts Why a little yeast haze can add charm to your finished cider Key Takeaways Pét Nat (Pétillant Naturel) means naturally sparkling where the bubbles come from fermentation finishing in the bottle. Racking is a simple but essential step to move cider off the lees without introducing oxygen. Skip the jargon: watch what your cider is doing, not just the calendar. Always use champagne-rated bottles and sanitize everything. The reward? Tiny bubbles, wild aroma, and the pure joy of cider alive in the glass.

In this gripping two-part episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu welcomes back the ever-provocative Michael Malice—author, podcaster, and noted cultural commentator—for a wide-ranging and sharp-witted exploration of American decline, political polarization, and the state of the nation. Malice, renowned for his contrarian takes and deep dives into political history, brings his brand of irreverent insight to dissect the narratives of collapse and ascension in today's America. In Part 1, Tom and Michael confront the popular notion of America's “decline,” argue over metrics and historical context, and investigate whether we're truly on the verge of societal unraveling. The conversation journeys through economic pressures facing young people, the dangers of polarization and “soft secession,” and the historical parallels with past national struggles. With cutting banter and hard-hitting questions, they provide listeners with fresh perspectives on the culture wars, economic stagnation, and the rise of populism—all while refusing to shy away from uncomfortable truths. 00:00 – Intro 00:34 – anatomy of collapse 05:56 – Soft secession: State vs. federal power games  07:27 – Trade-offs, Trump derangement, and costs of polarization  08:39 – Paths ahead: Civil War, Argentina, or revolution?  10:46 – Revolution mechanics: Is another 1860s-style war possible?  13:12 – Violence, political unrest, and expanding executive power  16:06 – Economic crushing of young people and the rise of populism  17:58 – Housing, inflation, and the struggle for the American Dream  20:08 – Currency as a store of value: Societal ruin and a lack of political will  23:10 – The Japan counterargument and the threshold for crisis  26:07 – What drives people to “blink” in political standoffs?  28:24 – Party priorities, empty rhetoric, and pivoting for power  32:00 – Economic disenfranchisement, the myth of moderate politics  34:23 – Passing on generational wealth: Consequences of deficit spending  36:56 – Populism vs. establishment: Energies within parties  39:03 – Political novelty, enthusiasm gaps, and voter turnout  41:38 – Global leftward drift: Authoritarianism in Canada, UK, and beyond  44:01 – Free speech vs. soft totalitarianism: Censorship through crisis  46:13 – “The time for talk is over”—what this actually means FOLLOW MICHAEL MALICE: Twitter: ⁠https://twitter.com/michaelmalice⁠ Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/michaelmalice/⁠ Locals: ⁠https://malice.locals.com/⁠ Linkedin: Post your job free at ⁠https://linkedin.com/impacttheory⁠ Netsuite: Download the new e-book Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders at ⁠http://NetSuite.com/Theory⁠ Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at ⁠https://shopify.com/impact⁠ Connectteam: 14 day free trial at ⁠https://connecteam.cc/46GxoTF⁠ Tailor Brands: 35% off ⁠https://tailorbrands.com/podcast35⁠ What's up, everybody?

In August 2015, a vintage Hawker Hunter jet performing at the Shoreham Airshow failed to complete a loop-the-loop manoeuvre — crashing onto the busy A27 below. Eleven innocent people were killed, and sixteen more were injured in one of the UK's worst airshow disasters. In this episode, we explore how a day of family entertainment turned into chaos and carnage, the investigation that followed, and the controversial trial that raised serious questions about accountability and aviation safety.

The Traitors has returned to UK screens with its biggest viewing figures ever as 19 celebrities compete to be crowned the winner. The game depends on being able to accurately spot a liar, but are any deception detection methods actually backed up by science? Madeleine Finlay speaks to Timothy Luke, a senior lecturer in the department of applied psychology at the University of Gothenburg, to find out whether sweating, nervous ticks and reduced eye contact really can alert us to deception, and if not, what can?.

In this eye-opening episode, Lee exposes the alarming rollout of the European Union's new biometric entry-exit system — a digital checkpoint that captures citizens' fingerprints and facial scans every time they cross a border. What's being sold as “security and convenience” is fast becoming a digital prison, with parallels in the UK's new “Right to Rent” and “Right to Work” IDs, and even in America's Real ID program. From South Carolina's Senate Bill 731 to the quiet digitization of everyday freedoms, Lee breaks down how global digital ID systems are transforming citizens into monitored subjects — all under the guise of safety and modernization.

In this wide-ranging episode, Tara exposes the creeping global surveillance and political theater shaping our world. From the EU's new biometric exit-entry system that treats travelers like criminals, to the UK and U.S. moving toward digital IDs, Tara explores how personal freedom is increasingly tied to compliance. He also dives into the timing of Trump's COVID booster amid international studies linking mRNA vaccines to serious health risks, and how U.S. officials allegedly manipulate safety data. On top of that, Tara dissects political hypocrisy, highlighting Lindsey Graham's contradictory actions, DOJ surveillance, and high-profile cases of political corruption. This episode is a cautionary tale of liberty, health, and accountability in a world where technology and politics collide.

Today's episode dives deep into the systems reshaping freedom, health, and politics. Lee uncovers the EU's biometric exit-entry system and the UK's new digital IDs, revealing how ordinary citizens are increasingly tracked and controlled. Across the Atlantic, the U.S. moves toward digitized Real IDs, raising questions about privacy and autonomy. On the health front, Lee examines alarming findings from the largest COVID vaccine studies, including increased cancer risks and manipulated federal safety data, alongside the timing of high-profile boosters. Meanwhile, political theater exposes deep hypocrisy: Lindsey Graham and others fund investigations against Trump yet complain of surveillance, while cases of corruption and fraud among prominent politicians highlight systemic double standards. Lee connects the dots on international policy, health risks, and domestic politics to reveal the hidden forces shaping modern life.

Iron Ladies is a new documentary about the women of the 1984-85 Miners' Strike, a time in which working-class women who found themselves at the forefront of a battle against the British state. They fast became the backbone of the fight: organising pickets; keeping families fed, and raising cash to continue the strike. As Lorraine Stansbie and Kate Flannery – two of those redoubtable women – tell our Mick, it changed them. And not only them; it's fair to say their actions reshaped the landscape of political activism for working-class women forever.  Iron Ladies is currently showing in cinemas across the UK and Ireland.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textOften called “the lesbian Bible,” Radclyffe Hall's 1928 novel The Well of Loneliness has been sparking debate for nearly a century. Banned in the UK after an infamous obscenity trial, the book remains a lightening rod for readers — some revere it, others can't stand it. We'll explore what makes this groundbreaking novel so remarkable (and so divisive) with returning guest Iris Jamahl Dunkle, who found inspiration in Hall's protagonist for her forthcoming book on strong-bodied women who refuse to conform to society's standards.Mentioned in this episode:Kim and Amy's October 14 LitQuake appearance: “Scribbling Women” Strike Back: How Long-Silenced Voices Have Fueled a New ResistanceThe Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall (new Oxford Press edition)Iris Jamahl Dunkle's Substack article on Radclyffe Hall“Bad Gays” podcast episode on Radclyffe HallLost Ladies of Lit Episode No. 27 on Charmian Kittredge LondonLost Ladies of Lit Episode No. 214 on Sanora BabbLost Ladies of Lit Episode No. 152 on Janet LewisRiding Like the Wind: The Life of Sanora Babb by Iris Jamahl DunkleCharmian Kittredge London: Trailblazer, Author, Adventurer by Iris Jamahl DunkleWomb House BooksCita PressLoving Sylvia Plath: A Reclamation by Emily Van DuyneDo Admit: The Mitford Sisters and Me by Mimi PondHavelock EllisEdith EllisDjuna BarnesNatalie Clifford BarneyMargaret VandenburgSupport the showFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comSubscribe to our substack newsletter.

This episode is in partnership with Keeo HairIn this week's minipod I'm talking to top UK trichologist Kate Holden about some of the reasons that we struggle with hair loss, damage and weakness and what we can do about them.Kate is an ambassador for Keeo Hair, a brand that I have used and loved since I discovered them a couple of years ago. Keeo was founded by an amazing hairdresser called Alfredo de Benedictis who has done a lot of research into the damage caused by hair tools, realising that it's not just heat but tension from pulling, clamping and dragging that causes us so many issues. He addressed this by making the most amazing tools that are engineered to glide rather than pull.During this mini episode Kate gives us an insight into why Keeo stands out in a market that has largely ignored the tension issue. She also gives lots of really excellent hair tips, some of which might surprise you.

In this long-awaited episode, Gyles (and Harriet) talk to the psychotherapist, writer and broadcaster Julia Samuel about bereavement. As regular Rosebud listeners will know, bereavement - whether in childhood or adulthood - is a recurring theme on the podcast, and we have received and shared many heartfelt and deeply moving emails from listeners who lost parents and family members when they were very young, and in difficult circumstances. We also know that we're listened to by lots of recent widows, and others who are grieving. This special episode is for you, and for anyone else who knows the pain of grief... which is probably most of us, let's be honest! Julia Samuel is the founder of Child Bereavement UK, an experienced psychotherapist, and the writer of the best-selling book Grief Works (which is also an app and a podcast). She is one of the UK's foremost experts on bereavement and grief, the ways it affects us, and the ways we can heal and grow through it. In this long and fascinating conversation, she talks to Gyles about the importance of "jumping in the puddle" of grief, and not denying or ignoring it. She talks about the best ways to support someone who has lost a loved one. She talks about her own family history, and the way her family story, with its secrets and buried feelings, led her to work in this field. And the podcast ends with Julia talking to Harriet about her experience of the death of her mother, who took her own life when Harriet was 13. (This episode does contain references to suicide). We would love to hear your thoughts and stories that arise from listening to this edition of Rosebud. Email us any time at hello@rosebudpodcast.com and Harriet will try her best to reply! You can also chat to fellow listeners on our Facebook page, Rosebud Reflections. Lots of people are sharing their stories on there. We're honoured to have Julia Samuel with us today. And we're honoured that you're listening to us. Cue the music... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
