During the early weeks of the pandemic, Tim Hayward spent 14 days in a coma. He remembers this time vividly – his days and nights filled with strange, incandescent visions and hallucinations. That experience is something he would never choose to revisit but, around the world, large numbers of people are deliberately seeking out powerfully altered states. In this ten-part series, Tim sets out to better understand a group of substances that induce altered states: psychedelics. There's been a surge of interest in their therapeutic potential for various mental health conditions - as well as a range of other clinical possibilities. As research around the world ramps up after years of taboo and prohibition he tries to get to grips with - or at least get a clearer sense of - how science, culture, politics and business might all interact in this changing psychedelic landscape, and what it all might mean. He also explores what might be happening in the brain during a trip and whether, by studying psychedelics, we might uncover more about consciousness, imagination and even the mysteries of reality itself.In this episode, Tim travels back in time to a Victorian pharmacy, drinks a lot of coffee, uncovers some pioneering psychedelic research in 1950s Canada - and discovers a nurse who was there.Contributors: Erika Dyck, historian of psychedelics, University of Saskatchewan Mike Jay, author and cultural historian Kay Parley, former nurse Saskatchewan Hospital, Weyburn, Canada Andrew Penn, psychiatric nurse practitioner and psychedelics researcher, University of California San Francisco School of NursingPresenter: Tim Hayward Series Producer: Richard Ward Executive Producer: Rosamund Jones Editor: Kirsten Lass Written by Tim Hayward and Richard Ward Sound Design and Mixing: Richard Ward Researcher: Grace Revill Voiceover Artist: Sandra-Mae Lux Special thanks to Zoë Dubus Commissioning Editor: Daniel Clarke A Loftus Media production for BBC Radio 4

The sound of mining — And the sound of money — All across Griqualand West, tent towns mushroomed overnight, teeming with fortune seekers from around the world. Tens of thousands by 1873, all descending on a patch of dusty ground that was soon to become a beacon of development on the landscape. Kimberley. In the modern world, industrial diamonds have hammered the industry business model, China overwhelmingly dominates global production of synthetic industrial diamonds accounting for about 90% of the total total. But in the 19th century, diamonds were still as rare as as teetotaler in a Kimberley tavern. This episode we'll hear about the entrepreneurs both black and white, and the future Robber Baron and colonial Dreamer, Cecil John Rhodes. It was in May 1871 after the harvest at the Rhodes brothers cotton farm in Richmond in Natal had come in, that Rhodes began his long career of harvesting the right connections. Brother Herbert sailed to Natal two years earlier, and now Cecil was helping manage the 250 acre farm, helped by 30 black labourers. Herbert however had heard about the riches discovered in Griqualand West and headed off to the Diamond Fields in early 1871, leaving Cecil to run the show in Natal. Young Cecil attended the annual meeting of the colonies agricultural society where he exhibited samples of their cotton, in attendance were Natal's colonial elite. There were long after-dinner political speeches, all ending with a toast. IN the haze of cigar and tobacco smoke, and a haze of multiple shots of whiskey, one settler called for a man to offer the traditional toast to the Ladies. So it was ironic that Cecil Rhodes rose in response, and thus delivered his first ever public speech according to his friend and biographer, Lewis Mitchell. Ironic because Rhodes would never form a initimate relationship with a woman as far as we know . As he grew more powerful, he would always surround himself with young male private secretaries and later would make one - Neville Pickering, the sole beneficiary of his will. In the Victorian era, being openly homosexual was socially unacceptable and illegal, so any such relationships would have been kept private. We are hampered by a lack of personal diaries or revealing letters from Rhodes himself, making it difficult to reach a firm, irrefutable conclusion about his private life. The scale claim-owners did much of their own manual labour, but for the most part the work was done by black labourers, picking at the ground, smashing the bumps of earth and rock, sieving the lime dust through a coarse wire sieve, rubble thrown aside, what remained placed on a sorting table. A small scraper would be used to spread the rock on the tables, scooping after picking the diamonds out, repeat repeat. In early 1872 Herbert went back to their farm in Richmond to welcome yet another brother, Frank, to South Africa. Cecil was left in charge and suffered under the stress, hard labour in a harsh climate, supervising his business, and a sudden death of his friend John Thompson. He was smoking and drinking too much, breathing in too much dust, dehydrated — and collapsed — to be nursed back to health by John Blades Currey's wife, Mary. He was still only 18 years old and almost died. In his miasmic state, he wrote his will which is prescient, and somewhat theatrical, leaving all his possessions to Britain's Secretary of State for the colonies, Lord Kimberly instead of his family. New promulgations were thus passed by the miners themselves, black people could not stay in the mining camps for longer than two days without a master, they also had to observe a curfew after 9pm. Punishment for failing to observe these rules, 25 lashes or 10 shillings fine. All this at a time when most of the English-speaking world was repealing lashing.

Host Natalie Grueninger welcomes historian Helene Harrison to explore how Anne Boleyn crafted her image and how it was reshaped after her death. They discuss Anne's coronation symbolism, self-fashioning, and efforts by Henry VIII's court to win public favour. The conversation examines key portraits and artefacts—from the Hever Rose portrait and the Chequers ring to the 1534 medal—and the ongoing debates around their dating and identification. Helen traces contemporary reactions at home and abroad, Anne's reappearance in Elizabeth I's reign, and the clash between Nicholas Sander and John Foxe. She then follows Anne's evolving legacy through Stuart drama, Victorian myth‑making, and modern screen portrayals, including Anne of the Thousand Days, The Tudors, Wolf Hall, and Six the Musical. Helene also shares details of her new book, The Many Faces of Anne Boleyn, teases a forthcoming study of Henry VIII's Great Matter, and offers a lighthearted Tudor-themed reading recommendation.  Visit Helene's blog https://tudorblogger.com/author/tudorblogger/ Find out more about your host at https://www.nataliegrueninger.com Support Talking Tudors on Patreon

Send us a text! We'd love to hear your thoughts on the show.Welcome back to The Resilient Writers Radio Show! In this solo episode, Rhonda tackles a sneaky form of procrastination that plagues so many writers—what she calls “procraftination.”You know the feeling. You sit down to write that tricky third scene in Act Two… and suddenly you need to read just one more writing craft book. Or register for a new workshop. Or spend two hours researching the Victorian medical tools your character might use—even though that detail doesn't show up for three more chapters.Sound familiar?Rhonda dives into why this kind of procrastination feels productive (because hey, it's writing-adjacent!), but actually gets in the way of finishing your draft. She shares her love for craft books, research rabbit holes, and workshops—but also offers a crucial mindset shift: these tools are powerful when used in the right phase of the writing process.Inside the episode, you'll learn:Why we often turn to writing education instead of writing the next sceneHow to recognize when you're avoiding your draft in disguiseThe best times to read craft books or take workshops (hint: not mid-draft!)Rhonda's “square bracket method” for handling research without interrupting your creative flowWhy fast-drafting your book—without trying to perfect every line—is so essential to long-term successRhonda also unpacks how fear, self-doubt, and “this book might be mediocre” thinking can trick us into busywork that feels safe. She shares how becoming a conscious observer of your own creative process can help you spot the difference between genuine growth and sneaky procrastination.

Editor's Note, by Art Middlekauff The 1880s featured a public debate between two leading thinkers, both of whom were cited favorably by Charlotte Mason. These two thinkers were Thomas Huxley (1825–95) and Matthew Arnold (1822–88).

A thrilling, cinematic saga of a Southern belle whose espionage for Abraham Lincoln and the Union helped win the Civil War.Wealthy Southern belle Elizabeth Van Lew had it all. Money, charm, wit—the biggest mansion in Richmond. So why risk everything to become the Civil War's most productive Union spy?The answer was simple: freedom. In this gripping history of a secret espionage genius, Gerri Willis reveals how Elizabeth built a flourishing spy network in the heart of the Confederate Capitol. Flouting society's expectations for women, Elizabeth infiltrated prisons, defied public opinion, and recruited an underground movement of freed slaves, secret Unionists, and brave captives.Putting her straitlaced Victorian past behind her, Elizabeth encountered vivid characters—assassins, socialites, escape artists, and cross-dressing spies. From grave robbery to a bold voyage across enemy lines, her escapades grew more and more daring. It paid off. Her agents were so well-placed that she had spies gathering information in both the Confederate War Department and the Richmond White House, and couriers providing General Ulysses S. Grant with crucial, daily intelligence for the war's final assault.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Madeleine West Actor Mother of 7 Advocate Abuse survivor Former Neighbours star Madeleine West  is embracing her newborn seventh child, several years after splitting from her ex Shannon Bennett father to her beautiful brood of six .. well she thought it was menopause turned out to be a baby at 47 !Mother of 7, advocate, survivor and ambassador for the newly created Cntrl Shift organisation  she's on a mission to protect children educate organisations parents and childcare authorities . As a victim of abuse herself she's raw and determined.Her tenacity is particularly remarkable in light of the trauma she has recently experienced again. She courageously sought to hold her abuser accountable after disclosing childhood abuse in 2023, which led to a landmark court decision. This particularly difficult period of her life has given her a new sense of direction. With recent disturbing reports of child abuse in dozens of childcare centres across Melbourne it's triggering and distressing but Mad is determined to fight and use her anger as fuel for change So I'm are thrilled to welcome this passionate powerful woman to Wil podcast Childcare centres that egregiously fail to meet minimum standards will still have a month's grace period to resolve their problems before the government steps in to strip them of taxpayer funding, under new laws proposed by the Albanese government.The rules were introduced to federal parliament on Wednesday following a spate of sexual abuse allegations levelled against Victorian childcare worker Joshua Brown, claims of children being mistreated in NSW, and earlier incidents in Queensland. Is this finally the beginning of action ?Madeleine West is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Her abuser, Peter Vincent White, was her next-door neighbour in rural Victoria. West was just four years old and it continued until she was 11. In 2022, decades on from the crime, West proved instrumental in the case against White. On the morning of June 13, the actor was fitted with a wire and confronted White. In 2023, White pleaded guilty to 33 offences and was handed a 15-year prison sentence for the sexual abuse of seven children.She now wants the parents of other children who have faced unimaginable trauma to feel educated about what trauma feels like. This is her story, in her own words.Deborah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/what.ive.learnt/Mind, Film and Publishing: https://www.mindfilmandpublishing.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/what-ive-learnt/id153556330Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3TQjCspxcrSi4yw2YugxBkBuzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1365850

When a six-year-old boy in rural Mexico walks into a neighbor's bathroom, he doesn't expect to meet a ghostly girl in Victorian clothing bathed in blinding white light. But she isn't just a fleeting vision—she returns again years later, this time far more aggressive and dangerous. What began as a silent beckoning in a bathroom doorway turns into objects flying, voices whispering, and a violent attack in the dead of night. Was she a wandering spirit from a plague-ridden past—or something far more sinister that latched on and waited for the right moment to reappear?

Mystery writer, podcaster, and indie studio head focused on immersive mysteries - Aaron J. Reardon is here to shine an eerie light on a new entertainment format that actually predates TV but is enjoying a renaissance as podcasts on digital channels. And we're not talking about a cottage industry - oh no. Audio Drama is a massive category of entertainment that hasn't even broken into the mainstream yet. Now is the chance to find out all about it and how - as marketers, you can leverage your brands in this exciting new market. Aaron's expertise is on full display as he explains how his roots as a digital marketing lead for Red Bull, took him into the world of music, streaming and then made the leap into drama. He explains how social media has killed off the art of storytelling and how this new area is filled with content creators making shows on the fly and adapting their work in real time. We cover the Alton Towers curse, how plants kill people, what drives listeners, how marketing can leverage the format; the theater of the mind and the golden rules of creating audio drama. We also discover how this phenomenon began in the 1920s and discuss the Victorian internet.

You'd expect comedy out of a comedian turned actor and then director, right? Think again. My guest, filmmaker Ali Cook, turns what you'd expect upside down. So far, he's written two short films, directed one, and is working now on his first few features. He acted in a truly phenomenal Afghanistan war film, KAJAKI (2014), sometimes known as Kilo Two Bravo, and he's got more insight than we could possibly cover in 30 minutes. I tried to keep my laughter to a minimum, but come on. Go watch his films. Ali is talented and funny. In this episode, Ali and I discuss:What his goals are for an exquisitely filmed short film in THE PEARL COMB (2025) and previously THE CUNNING MAN (2019);How a comedian and magician in Britain became an indie film actor, writer and director; His website lists his skills as directing, writing, producing, acting — does he have a favorite?What he took away from his first short film;Whether a high profile social media account helps his indie filmmaking career — “I think it's a little bit different in the UK”;What to expect to see when they watch THE PEARL COMB and how he structures his films like a magic trick;How he brings the showman's ability to filmmaking;What draws him to the Victorian look for his filmsHis experience of watching his films in a theater and with an audience;The “awful” game you are playing trying to find honest feedback for a film;The clues in THE PEARL COMB that explain the ending;The best compliment you can give a short film — you have to rewatch it;How deflating it must be for a film with a big festival run to just be uploaded to YouTube;The brilliance of KAJAKI (2014) as a war film and his reflections on the film;what's next for this talented and funny filmmaker.Ali's Indie Film Highlights: KAJAKI (2014) dir. by Paul Katis; THE SCHOOL DUEL (2024) dir. by Todd Wiseman JrMemorable Quotes:“The structure of a one-man show is very similar to a film, really. And then I just realized there was a lot of inherent skills that I knew, the most brutal one being, having a pretty good sense of when people are getting bored.”“ I think my least favorite is producing. But you need to be a great multitasker and I'm not, and you have to have excellent people skills of which mine are debatable.” “ The game of a comedian and the game of a magician is to paint thoughts in the audience's mind via assumption. So every joke is when you shatter an assumption.”“I actually watch the audiences. So when the surprises are coming, I like to watch someone two or three rows in front of me, and I like to see if they're gonna jump or not.” “ The ending ideally should be surprising yet inevitable.” Links: Follow Ali On InstagramFollow THE PEARL COMB On InstagramAli Cook's WebsiteSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

In the sweltering summer of 1895, two boys lived with their mother's decomposing corpse for ten days while playing cricket and going to the seaside — a Victorian crime that shocked even the most hardened of London's East End residents.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: In the summer of 1895, two young brothers in London's East End harbored a secret so dark that when it was finally discovered, it would become one of Victorian England's most shocking criminal cases. The stench had become unbearable by the time anyone noticed something was wrong at 35 Cave Road. It was July in Plaistow, and the heat made everything worse — the smell of the docks, the horse manure from the market gardens, and whatever was rotting behind the locked bedroom door of the Coombes family home.

What happens when every home you move into feels just a little... off? In this unsettling story from Ohio, a young man recounts years of chilling encounters that followed his family from a humble servant's quarters to a decrepit Victorian house—and even to his mom's apartment. From shadow men in mirrors to violent poltergeist outbursts, mysterious fires, and a ghost girl jumping on the bed, it seemed like something—or someone—was always watching. But were these haunted homes the source of the darkness… or just the stage? Either way, something was attached. And it wasn't letting go.

In today's episode we're reading a rulebook on how to be an absolutely insufferable Victorian f*ckboy, by none other than the courtesan and dancer Lola Montez.

What happens when the dead won't stay silent—and the past refuses to rest? In today's hauntingly atmospheric episode of Haunted History Chronicles, I'm delighted to be joined by Dr Kate Cherrell: paranormal historian, researcher of Victorian spiritualism, and now, debut novelist.Kate has long been a familiar voice in the world of the weird and wonderful, known for her meticulous historical research and insightful writing on the occult, death culture, and the Victorian fascination with the afterlife. Today, she joins me to discuss her journey into the paranormal, and to lift the veil on her brand new gothic horror novel, Begotten.Set in the crumbling, fog-soaked county of Duncain, Begotten immerses readers in a world of seances, secrets, and ghostly visitations. It's a chilling tale where grief warps into obsession, and the line between the living and the dead becomes perilously thin. We'll explore the inspirations behind this richly layered story—from the spiritualist craze of the 19th century to the silencing of women's voices, and how ghosts might just be the shadows of our own deepest fears.We talk gothic tropes, unreliable narrators, haunted houses, and what it really means to live alongside your ghosts—whether you're a Victorian widow or a modern-day paranormal investigator. Plus, Kate shares some of her own unexplained experiences, the reality behind filming paranormal TV, and why the stories we tell about the dead say so much about the living.If you've ever lit a candle on a stormy night and dared to peer beyond the veil, this is an episode for you.My Special Guest Is Dr Kate Cherrell Kate Cherrell holds a PhD specialising in 19th Century Gothic. She lectures widely on Victorian mourning cultures and the Spiritualist movement and has work featured in several international publications, including Haunted Magazine for which she is a staff writer.

Hey, it's Eira! Today I'd like to introduce you to a fabulous show, the Holmwood Foundation. It's a modern sequel to the classic Victorian gothic vampire novel, Dracula. The story follows co-workers Maddie and Jeremy who become possessed by the ghosts of Mina and Jonathan Harker. Beginning at the Holmwood Foundation, an organisation which has been studying Dracula's remains for the last 130 years, our possessed protagonists end up on a road-trip which they hope will give the ghosts of the Harkers what they want; to get rid of Dracula once and for all. It's a really stellar show which explores identity and self-discovery, family loyalty and devotion, and it has some lovely accompanying artwork. There is just one more episode of the show left to come, and it'll be out on 19th of August, which means you have plenty of time to catch up on the first six episodes, but won't have to wait long for the story to be completed. A transcript for the episode you're about to listen to is in the description below.

Criminal Mischief Annihilation In this chilling episode of Criminal Mischief, hosts Carolyn Ossorio and Branden Morgan take you inside one of Australia's most confounding and headline-grabbing criminal cases in recent memory: the alleged mushroom poisonings tied to Erin Patterson. In August 2023, a quiet lunch in Leongatha, Victoria ended in tragedy when three members of the Patterson and Wilkinson families died after consuming what authorities believe were death cap mushrooms. Erin Patterson, who hosted the meal, claimed it was an innocent mistake — but investigators weren't so sure. Using extensive interviews with law enforcement and local officials, this episode dissects the timeline, forensic findings, and emotional fallout from a case that has left an entire country shaken. Was it an accident? A cover-up? Or something far more sinister? We explore:     •    The toxicology behind death cap mushrooms     •    Erin Patterson's statements and shifting accounts     •    The legal strategy unfolding in the Victorian justice system     •    How grief, suspicion, and public scrutiny have converged on one woman This isn't just a story about a meal gone wrong — it's about trust, inheritance, blurred intentions, and what happens when family dinners become deadly. Subscribe to Criminal Mischief for more deeply reported cases from the edge of justice, morality, and madness.

In this episode, GG Hawkins and Jason Hellerman sit down with filmmaker and producer Matthew Scheffler, whose unique path through the industry includes five seasons field producing for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and producing shows like Random Acts of Flyness and Black Twitter: A People's History. Matthew shares his journey from faking his way into the industry to directing his own Victorian horror short The Traveler, while raising three kids and navigating the shifting landscape of indie filmmaking. The episode also revisits the growing frustration Vimeo users in the UK and EU face due to regulatory changes, sparking a larger conversation on platform responsibility and the future of video hosting for filmmakers. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins, Jason Hellerman, and guest Matthew Scheffler discuss... How Matthew went from commercials in Boston to producing Emmy-winning segments for Last Week Tonight The real challenges of transitioning from production roles into directing How working in production sharpened his creative instincts The long road to making The Traveler, a Victorian horror short shot on Staten Island Why Vimeo has become inaccessible in the UK/EU and what it means for indie filmmakers A listener's UK-based perspective on the loss of Staff Picks and public search Vimeo's official response to the criticism and the broader implications of global tech regulation Memorable Quotes: "You kind of lie within the parameters...lying about a location where you live. I agree with you—chances are if I had said I was moving, they would have just given it to my friend who already lives there." "I've never been on a production where the budget matched the creative. Ever." "You just have to decide what you need to cut out—because when you have kids especially, you can't really cut them out." "Filmmakers built Vimeo. They shouldn't forget that."

Dr. Rick and Forrest explore the ideas, context, and legacy of psychoanalysis, the often-controversial origin point for modern therapy. They discuss psychoanalysis' early history and key concepts like the unconscious mind, repression, inner conflict, and transference. Alongside those major contributions, they wrestle with what hasn't aged so well: the reductionism, murky ethics, and deep entanglements with colonialism and the Victorian worldview. This episode is both a tribute to and a critique of psychoanalysis as a rich, flawed, and deeply influential starting point for modern therapy.
