For this month's Forgotten Melodies bonus episode we're singing and talking about Witch Songs!As ever, the episode features new arrangements of three traditional folk songs: Witches Reel, Broomfield Hill and Hare Spell, and Martin, Ben and Eleanor chat about the history and context of each.With Witch Trials continuing in Scotland long after they had ended in England and Wales, it's perhaps unsurprising that so many Witch Songs have Scottish versions. Following our Gunpowder Plot Patreon Exclusive episode we're therefore continuing to talk quite a lot about James VI of Scotland, I of England here, including about the North Berwick Witch Trials. Then again, there's also the hill in Somerset where witches offer handy advice to maidens! We've done our best to do the genre justice and sing songs that aren't all doom and gloom, and really hope you enjoy the episode. Although we are hoping to have some musical offerings coming up on the week of Christmas, Forgotten Melodies will now be on a small hiatus until 2026, so we'll look forward to singing and playing more music for you then!The Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Former New Zealand fly-half and second highest All Black points scorer of all time Andrew Mehrtens joins Lauren Salter, Jonathan Davies and James Hook to look ahead to Wales v New Zealand.

New claims from a source cited by Andrew Lownie allege that Jeffrey Epstein discussed a plan to “take out” Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, as fresh emails released by a United States congressional committee show Epstein calling the former duke “great fun” and referring to him by the codename “The Duke.” Andrew is seen in public for the first time since losing his titles, riding on the Windsor estate while negotiations over his move continue, and reports suggest King Charles has struck a private deal to protect Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's future roles. There are also signs Sarah may seek refuge in Portugal as the fallout spreads. Against this backdrop, Kensington Palace confirms that the Prince and Princess of Wales will lead the family's public front at this year's Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

The BBC issues a formal apology after viewers complain that Armistice Day coverage referred to Catherine as “Kate Middleton” instead of the Princess of Wales. At the same time, Kensington Palace sets out her Christmas plans, announcing the fifth Together at Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey on the theme of love in all its forms. A new Mother Nature autumn video, recorded at Forest Lodge, highlights Catherine's reflective tone on change, connection and resilience. Deep Crown notes the careful timing of the Abbey concert alongside Meghan Markle's Netflix holiday special, calling the royal calendar “a considered narrative.” Elsewhere, the Prince of Wales opens a new access road for Mousehole AFC in Cornwall, wins praise for his modern media strategy after his Brazil trip, and an old school friend recalls young William once declaring that he wanted to be a policeman, long before everyone else started talking about him as a future king.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

On this special episode recorded live at the CIPP's (Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals) Annual Conference and Exhibition (CIPP ACE) in Newport, Wales, Pete catches up with HCM transformation and global payroll executive, Wendy Muirhead, Founding Partner of WH People! From the shifting compliance landscape in the U.K., to the cultural and economic forces shaping payroll investment worldwide, Wendy shares the current climate and pulse across the marketplace as organizations strive to “do more with less” and unlock the hidden strategic value in modern payroll operations.  Pete and Wendy explore how payroll leaders are earning a seat at the table, by mastering data, governance, and storytelling that moves the C-suite from “approval  to investment” - sharing how payroll leaders can step beyond execution to become strategic advisors, driving business outcomes through insight, collaboration, and influence at the C-suite level. Together, they challenge the perception of payroll as a back-office function, spotlighting the profession's evolution toward risk mitigation, business transformation, and strategic influence.

The last time the All Blacks lost to Wales there was no Harbour Bridge in Auckland, Elvis Presley hadn't released any music and Queen Elizabeth II was about to make her first visit to New Zealand. The Welsh will need to channel the spirit of 1953 - the year they beat the All Blacks 13-8 - if they want to taste victory once again. But do they have any shot at snapping this seven-decade streak? Sports reporter Jamie Wall spoke to Lisa Owen.

So now we know, the World Cup play-off fixtures have been announced: Republic of Ireland will play Czech Republic away on March 26th, and if they win, they will play Denmark or North Macedonia in Dublin on March 31st.Northern Ireland will play Italy away, and if they win, they will be away again to Wales or Bosnia and Herzegovina.The playoffs are knockout matches so it could all end on March 26th, but what if it doesn't?Can Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrímsson bring the team to the World Cup? That's a dream that even the most diehard fans, looking at the dismal start to the qualifying campaign, had all but given up on. But then there was the win over Portugal – a victory that not only made a trip to the tournament a possibility but kept the manager in a job.Irish Times soccer correspondent Gavin Cummiskey spoke to Hallgrímsson after the draw. On In the News he looks at the manager's reaction to the draw, comments on our chances against the Czechs (good!) and explains how after a year of getting it wrong, everything came good for the Irish team.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Childminders play a vital role in the early years of children's lives, offering care, stability and a familiar face during those formative years. But their numbers are in sharp decline. Many are no longer able to offer places for three and four year olds, citing government funding pressures. Today, Ofsted have released new figures on how many childminders are leaving and joining the profession. Childminder Georgina Young joins Nuala McGovern to share her experience of the joys and challenges of childminding, and what the future might hold for the profession.Saskia Reeves is the theatre, film and TV actor known for her many roles including Katherine Standish in the hit Apple TV series Slow Horses. She's now back at the National Theatre, in a new play, End – the last in a trilogy of plays by David Eldridge - Beginning and Middle – with Clive Owen, exploring love and relationships. Saskia joins Nuala to discuss. The Independent Commission on UK Counterterrorism has just published its report after three years. A long and detailed report, it estimates there are up to 70 UK-linked individuals, mostly women and children—most under 10 years old—believed to still be in camps or other detention centres in Iraq and Syria. Professor of Religion, Gender and Global Security, Katherine Brown, is one of the 14 commissioners. She explains why the women and children remaining in these camps is "unsustainable" and why an organised programme of return, rehabilitation, and integration is, they believe, the best long-term option for managing the risk to public safety. Frank Gardner, the BBC's Security Correspondent, joins them to discuss.Coroners' advice and concerns on maternal deaths in England and Wales are being ignored despite them raising repeated issues, a new study has found. Dr Georgia Richards, the founder of the Preventable Deaths Tracker at Kings College London who is on the line from New Zealand, discusses the findings.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey

On today's episode I'm joined by James Malins – Akashic Mentor, Guide and Life Coach. He is a warrior of the heart, the man behind Light of Albion, and a visionary for a future where we live consciously, compassionately and in right relationship with the land, each other, and God.James carries a deep remembrance of another way to live: a way of sovereignty, simplicity and stewardship.He stands for restoring goodness and decency in our world – tending to our homes, our communities and our land with love; honouring both the divine masculine and divine feminine; and helping people remember that they are not broken, but inherently loving beings who've simply forgotten who they are.In this conversation we explore:• What authenticity really feels like when it's embodied, not performed• The Essenes, Yeshua, Anna (Grandmother of Jesus) and what their way of life invites us into now• Food, water, forest gardens and what it means to live in harmony with nature• Archetypes like King Arthur, Excalibur and the “Light of Albion” as a map for modern leadership• James's vision of ethical, forest-garden villages (starting with Wales) where families live on the land, in community, with sovereignty and support• How his work as a coach is designed to give people their power back, not create dependencyIf your heart longs for village life, for forest gardens, for community built on love, truth and sovereignty – if you've ever felt you're here to help birth a new way of living on Earth – this conversation will feel like home.Those with ears, let them hear.

There's a story that in the year 1170 a Prince from Wales, named Madoc, led a group of Welsh colonists over the Atlantic to North America. This group allegedly mingled with the local indigenous people and eventually assimilated into their culture. However, they left behind their language. For centuries it was believed that a lost tribe of welsh-speaking indigenous people lived somewhere in America. Is there anything to the legend of Prince Madoc or is this just a strange case of fake history? Tune-in and find out how penguins, elephants in Virginia, and Welsh utopians all play a role in the story. Join us in Greece in 2026!

England stun the All Blacks at Twickenham, Ireland run riot with Mack Hansen's hat-trick, Wales leave it late against Japan, and Scotland implode spectacularly against Argentina, and the lads have plenty to say about all of it. Jim's still emotionally scarred from Scotland's collapse, while Goodey digs into England's biggest win of the Borthwick era, from Ford's masterclass to Henry Pollock's Haka moment. We break down a huge weekend across the Autumn Nations Series, ask whether the Springboks have a discipline problem despite winning with 14 men again, and look ahead to Ireland–South Africa after a record Irish win over Australia.

Classical learning has deep roots in the United Kingdom. Yet many schools in England, Scotland, and Wales have drifted toward child-led, utilitarian models that leave students unformed and unmoored. At the same time, a quiet renewal is beginning to take shape.In this episode, British educator Jamie Burns, founder of the Fellowship for Classical Learning, joins host Davies Owens to share how he rediscovered classical Christian education, why he believes it is the answer to the UK's educational crisis, and how God is using a small group of families to start new schools in London and Cardiff.Jamie traces his own story, from an average state education to rich conversations around his family's dinner table, through years in mainstream schools, and finally to an “aha” moment listening to Andrew Kern that gave him language for what he had always felt. Along the way he offers a clear, inside look at the current state of education in England, Scotland, and Wales, and the surprising ways classical ideas are resurfacing in policy, practice, and school life.

A Talent for Giving: Creating a more generous society that benefits everyone by John Studzinski https://www.amazon.com/Talent-Giving-Creating-generous-benefits/dp/1399418793 “A guide for how all of us can make a difference in the lives of others.” Michael Bloomberg “Made me really think about what it means to give, to care, to be generous.” Sir Grayson Perry Reclaim your individual impact with 'entrepreneurial giving'. It's time to democratize generosity and impact so YOU can make a difference. Philanthropy isn't just about wealth - it's about creativity, passion, and using your unique talents to contribute to what you believe in.

This groundbreaking book introduces entrepreneurial giving - a hands-on approach to philanthropy that harnesses skills, expertise, and resources. Through thought-provoking insights, A Talent for Giving offers a powerful new roadmap for impact. More than a guide, this book is a call to action. Whether you're an executive, an artist, a teacher, or an activist, your talents have the power to transform lives. The future of giving isn't about writing cheques - it's about reimagining what's possible. And it all starts with you.About the author John Studzinski, CBE is an American-British investment banker and philanthropist.

Over a third of women could face poverty in retirement due to a growing gender gap in private pensions, according to a report from Scottish Widows, with women's finances being hit by caring responsibilities and career gaps. YouGov carried out the reseach for the Scottish Widows annual Women and Retirement Report, asking 4,000 women from across the UK about their pensions and retirement planning, as well as savings, investments and career breaks. Nuala McGovern talks to Lily Megson-Harvey, the Policy Director of retirement finance company My Pension Expert. A third of all rape trials in Wales and England last year were postponed at least once, often on the day of trial, according to a new report published by the charity Rape Crisis England and Wales. Ten years ago in 2015 the figure was one in 10. Their report, Living in Limbo, finds rape and sexual abuse survivors are being retraumatised by the criminal justice system. Nuala is joined by Maxime Rowson, the charity's Head of Policy and Public Affairs. Back in 1995 a call went out looking for women to take part in a landmark scientific study exploring the links between what we eat and our health. Thirty-five thousand middle-aged women signed up to be part of the UK Women's Cohort Study. It went on to look at the impact our diet can have on our risk of developing cancer and other chronic diseases, as well as other areas of women's health from our bones to the menopause. Professor Janet Cade from the University of Leeds joins Nuala to discuss what it was like launching the study 30 years ago and some of its key takeaways for women. Families are calling for a change in the law after they say their babies' dead bodies were kept inappropriately at a funeral director's home. The case highlights a lack of regulation in funeral services in England and Wales. Nuala speaks to Zoe Ward, one of the parents affected, who recently met with Victims Minister Alex Davies Jones to call for new laws, and to Zoe's MP, Mark Sewards. Harriet Lane's new novel, Other People's Fun, explores modern life and the lies we tell others – and ourselves – on social media. It follows an unlikely and uneasy friendship between the unnoticed Ruth and the Instagrammable Sookie. Harriet joins Nuala in the studio to discuss why female friendships and ‘everyday horror' has always intrigued her. Presented by: Nuala McGovern Produced by: Sarah Jane Griffiths

Today's Morning Espresso dives into a massive World Cup qualifying day: Spain looking untouchable, Scotland and Denmark walking the Hampden tightrope, Wales chasing another Cardiff night, and a Concacaf finale full of chaos, revenge narratives, and Curacao on the brink of history. We'll also hit Germany and the Netherlands cruising, Nigeria's painful miss, and why Japan's confidence is sky-high heading toward 2026.On top of that, we unpack the latest World Cup off-the-field headlines (U.S. visa plans, DoorDash's FIFA deal, Conmebol's qualifier shake-up), set up USMNT–Uruguay and the looming Portugal friendly in Atlanta, dig into Denver Summit FC's stadium standoff, and run through MLS and global news in The Refill. The game never stops — and neither do we, on the SDH Network. The Morning Espresso is brought to you as always by Oglethorpe University.

King Charles has personally approved Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's return to royal duties — and Prince William is said to be furious. #ShuterScoop reports the Prince of Wales warned it was “too soon” and that “the Yorks are poison with the public,” but Charles insists “the family needs to heal in public.” Royal Insider Deep Crown tells Palace Intrigue the tension isn't about the sisters themselves but the King's “tone-deaf timing.” Meanwhile, Express columnist Chris Riches argues Beatrice and Eugenie should lose their HRH titles altogether, unable to escape “the festering link” to Andrew and Fergie's scandals.The episode also revisits Sarah Ferguson's long-forgotten plagiarism accusation and Andrew's total fall from grace — from pitch decks to pariah status — while GB News notes Beatrice's quiet rebrand as “Beatrice York” might be the smartest move the family's made all year.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

This week on Two Cents Gets Distracted, the All Blacks served up a bowl of crap to their fans as England handed us a brutal loss, crushing our hopes, rattling the fanbase, and putting Razor and his coaching staff squarely under the blowtorch. And yes, we rant about it. At length. With feeling. Meanwhile, the Boks battled past a fired-up Italian outfit despite copping a red card that may go down as one of the worst decisions of the entire rugby year. Ireland absolutely pumped the Aussies, Wales finally remembered what a win feels like, and Argentina pulled off an outrageous comeback because of course they did — they're Argentina. All that plus a whole lot of BS chat, whinging, therapy, and emotional processing about the state of the All Blacks. Buckle in. It's a spicy one.

This week on Elite Rugby Banter, we unpack a weekend of rugby that felt like it was scripted by a mischievous referee with a flair for theatre. The Boks beat Italy, but the real drama was in the card deck — with Eddie Jones still talking about “intent” like it's a legal thriller. KLA ghosted again, Moodie's defence was more interpretive dance than tackle technique, but Dwilly was electric and Manie continued to Manie with reckless charm. Pollard? Somewhere between solid and spectral. If you're not betting on Bok 9s to score, you hate free money. And Rassie's bench moves? Chef's kiss. Across the channel, England stunned the All Blacks and now we're all asking: are they actually good? Is this real? Who's in the top five now — and does anyone agree? BBBB caught some heat, but the real fire was in the discourse. Ireland beat Australia, but only the wrong Aussies shone. Ireland looked better, but was that just because Australia are now a rugby ghost town? Scotland lost to Argentina, and surely Tooney's seat is now lava. Meanwhile, Argentina continue to “prove” they're a top team — despite having done so for five years, three World Cup semis, and wins over basically everyone. Can we retire the “on their day” trope? And yes, Japan played Wales. It's a week of hot takes, cold facts, and rugby chaos — and we're here to stir it all with a crooked referee's whistle and a wink. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

In this bonus episode, I discuss the grey areas between law and fairness in the world of HR and employment law.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 137-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 27,310 on turnover of $7.7-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan ended slightly higher Monday after profit-taking eroded most of the initial gains amid lingering concerns over stretched artificial intelligence stocks at home and abroad. Analysts say the market was initially led by the electronics sector as investors took cues from a rebound enjoyed by tech stocks on the U.S. markets on Friday. But this strength was compromised by the end of the session as many investors shifted to the sell side. MOFA names new ambassador to Palau The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has approved the appointment of Andy Chen as Taiwan's new ambassador to Palau. Chen has been the director general of the ministry's Office of Parliamentarian Affairs since February. He will replace sitting ambassador Jessica Lee, who'll be returning to the MOFA headquarters in Taipei. Chen previously (先前) served as Taiwan's representative to Oman and head of Taiwan's office in Vancouver, Brunei, and the Philippines. He received his bachelor's degree in Arabic Language and Culture from National Chengchi University. (AH) Bangladesh's former leader Sheikh Hasina sentenced to death In Bangladesh, former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to death by a special tribunal (特別法庭 ) that found her guilty of committing crimes against humanity. She was put on trial in absentia and was found guilty of overseeing a crackdown on protesters last July. According to a UN report 1400 people were killed during the demonstrations last year, most by security forces firing live ammunition. Hasina claims she's innocent. Neha Poonia has more. Canada Budget Vote Passes Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney won a vote on his budget in Parliament that could have triggered (觸發) a possible election. Carney's Liberal government does not have enough votes to pass the budget on its own but it passed 170-168 with the support of a Green Party member of Parliament and some New Democrat abstentions. The Liberals don't have a majority of seats in the House of Commons and must rely on an opposition party to pass legislation. The budget vote is considered a vote of confidence in the minority Liberal government. Carney's Liberal Party scored a stunning comeback victory in an election last April in a vote widely seen as a rebuke of U.S. President Donald Trump. But the Liberals fell just short of winning an outright majority in Parliament. British Royal Mint Issues Freddie Mercury Coin Design Britain's Royal Mint is celebrating Freddie Mercury with a new coin design. The coin marks 40 years since his iconic Live Aid performance. It features an image of the Queen front man midperformance, with a musical stave (五線譜 ) representing his vocal range. Mercury's sister struck the first coin at the Royal Mint in Wales last week. She said the coin captures his passion and joy. The coins go on sale Tuesday. Mercury died at age 45 in 1991, just one day after he publicly (公開地) announced he was HIV positive. That was the I.C.R.T.

Steven Spielberg's extraordinary career redefined Hollywood, but his achievement goes far beyond shattered box office records. Rejecting the view of Spielberg as a Barnumesque purveyor of spectacle, Lester D. Friedman presents the filmmaker as a major artist who pairs an ongoing willingness to challenge himself with a widely recognized technical mastery. This new edition of Citizen Spielberg (University of Illinois Press, 2022) expands Friedman's original analysis to include films of the 2010s like Lincoln and Ready Player One. Breaking down the works by genre, Friedman looks at essential aspects of Spielberg's art, from his storytelling concerns and worldview to the uncanny connection with audiences that has powered his longtime influence as a cultural force. Friedman's examination reveals a sustained artistic vision--a vision that shows no sign of exhausting itself or audiences after Spielberg's nearly fifty years as a high-profile filmmaker. Incisive and discerning, Citizen Spielberg, Second Edition, offers a career-spanning appraisal of a moviemaking icon. Nathan Abrams is a professor of film at Bangor University in Wales [https://research.bangor.ac.uk/...(b8c6d91f-14c5-4862-8745-0f5d0e938a28).html].

The Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has said a proposed tightening of asylum rules will help stop illegal immigration from 'tearing the country apart'.

Wer kennt sie nicht: die Online-Enzyklopädie Wikipedia mit ihren über 60 Millionen Beiträgen in über 300 Sprachen. Sie verspricht, neutral und objektiv das Wissen der Menschheit zu sammeln. Nicht alle glauben an das Versprechen. Elon Musk hat mit «Grokipedia» vor Kurzem ein Gegenprojekt lanciert. Jimmy Wales liebte schon als Kind Enzyklopädien – und er war ein Computernerd. Mit viel Wagemut, Know-how und «pathologischem Optimismus», wie der US-Amerikaner und Wahlbrite von sich sagt, hat er das grösste frei zugängliche Online-Nachschlagewerk der Welt geschaffen, mit dem heute auch viele KI-Modelle trainiert werden. Für Wales gibt es nichts Grossartigeres, als die Welt zu verstehen und das Wissen zu bewahren und um möglichst viele Perspektiven zu erweitern. Deshalb arbeitet das Unternehmen nicht kommerziell und unabhängig von Werbung. Doch der «Tempel für den Geist» wird immer wieder attackiert – nicht nur von Elon Musk, sondern auch von seinem ehemaligen Mitstreiter Larry Sanger, die Wikipedia eine linksliberal geprägte Voreingenommenheit nachsagen. Jimmy Wales glaubt dennoch an sein Werk und wirbt in seinem soeben erschienenen Buch «Die 7 Regeln des Vertrauens» für den Glauben an die Kraft der Kooperation.

Tessa Dunlop hails the Princess of Wales as “the huntress” — poised, deliberate, and untouchable — while reports reveal her new meditation practice and William's rare burst of humor inside Windsor Castle. Meanwhile, Meghan's old fashion drama returns, from that infamous Tonga tag to claims she borrowed designer looks under royal protocol. Add a monogrammed “D.S.” travel bag in D.C., and it's clear both duchesses are still playing very different games.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Palden Jenkin in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://penwithbeyond.blog/about/ https://www.palden.co.uk/podcasts.html About Palden I was born in Hartfield in the Ashdown Forest in Sussex in 1950, in a nursing home which not long before had been the American Generals' HQ in Britain in WW2. A fine start. I grew up in 1950s Cardiff, Wales, and in 1960s Liverpool, and here my spiritual path began at age 16, tripping out on acid and beginning to see things in an entirely dfferent way. Went to university at the London School of Economics in 1969 during its time of revolution. I never looked back. This was the big change-point in my life, which set the course for all the rest of it. In today's terminology I was radicalised, thereafter dedicating my life to world change, and personal change with it, though very much tied up with it. Later I lived in the mountains of Snowdonia, Wales, then I had to leave the country in 1974, regarded by the authorities and media as a traitor and even a murderer, to live in Sweden until 1980. I'm really grateful for the safety and healing Sweden gave me. I married a Swedish lady, Berit, and we had two kids and many adventures, partly in Stockholm and partly in the forest in northern Uppland. There, as an English teacher of political refugees, inadvertently I started my later humanitarian work, in which I came to specialise in trauma recovery, social reconstruction and freelance intelligence work in conflict zones. During that time, after seven years' study, I became an astrologer. Since then I have counselled a few thousand people, writing three astrology books and founding the astrology camps in the 1980s. But I didn't easily fit into Sweden and, when I found out I was exonerated of my former alleged crimes, I returned to Britain. This involved a painful end to my marriage and the loss of two children. I landed in Glastonbury and I cried my eyes out with grief for two years in men's groups and therapy groups. This was a big change too, opening me up for something. Then came my instructions and I came alive again. In 1983-84 I started the UK camps movement – first with indoor gatherings in Glastonbury, then with summer camps, at first near Glastonbury, and later round the country. The Glastonbury Camps, spontaneously started and lasting three years, were followed from 1987 by the OakDragon Camps, from both of which many other camps organisations sprouted, in several countries.   By 1990 I was burned out, and there were quite a few people in the OakDragon who wanted to take things a different way. So, sad about that, I left and started again. I  went into book editing with an enlightened publisher called Gateway Books. In 1992 when I was asked to write The Only Planet of Choice – a book of communications from some cosmic beings called the Council of Nine. It was a privilege to write. I was also involved with editing a series of books by and about the Austrian genius Viktor Schauberger, and five books of alternative ideas about Jesus, and lots of other books too, through the 1990s.

Get ready for another BIG and BRILLIANT adventure into the wonders of science on this week’s Science Weekly! This episode plunges us deep beneath the waves as we uncover how dolphins and other ocean animals manage to hold their breath for astonishing lengths of time. Then, we shift from sea to psychology as Battle of the Sciences takes us inside the human mind to explore how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours can shape our physical health. In Science in the News, Australian tropical rainforests have shocked scientists by releasing more carbon than they absorb. We’re also heading to Wales, where plans for a ground-breaking nuclear power station are underway. And Barny Reed from the RSPCA joins Dan to explain how the UK is moving toward more humane animal testing. Then it’s over to your questions! Misha wants to know how braces work, and Alison Wood from Whale and Dolphin Conservation reveals how dolphins hold their breath for so long. Dangerous Dan returns with the grolar bear, a rare hybrid of a grizzly and a polar bear. And in Battle of the Sciences, Mark McDermott champions health psychology, showing how the way we think and feel can affect our bodies. Plus, Marina Ventura dives back in with another Ocean Adventure, exploring how oceans help humans survive and thrive. This week, we learn about:– How dolphins stay underwater for so long– Why some rainforests are releasing carbon– How braces straighten teeth– What makes the grolar bear so unusual– How psychology affects your health All that and more on this week’s Science Weekly!Join Fun Kids Podcasts+: https://funkidslive.com/plusSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
