Send us a textWhen Josh Wheeler founded Be Broadcast PR 3 years ago, he was determined to create something different—a PR agency focused not just on securing media coverage, but on telling meaningful stories that unite rather than divide. His journey from a tiny village in the West Midlands to becoming a broadcast PR specialist offers fascinating insights into what truly matters in communication.(Josh joined Chris Grimes in the Show to 'experience the format from within' to explore the possibility of lending his PR expertise to Chris's special new series-strand to the Show, 'Legacy Life Reflections': To record their or your Life Story, for posterity. "Lest we forget...Before its too late")During this intimate conversation, Josh reveals how some of his most formative experiences came not from formal education or corporate training, but from early jobs like making tea in a care home at age 11 and working the tills at Tesco. These roles taught him that despite our apparent differences, people from all walks of life share fundamental similarities—a philosophy that now informs Be Broadcast's approach to storytelling.Josh speaks candidly about his struggles with burnout, discovering that "being busy doesn't necessarily mean being fulfilled," and the challenge of finding balance in a high-pressure industry. His advice to slow down and "be more swan-like"—appearing calm while paddling furiously beneath the surface—offers valuable wisdom for anyone navigating today's frenetic workplace culture.What makes this episode particularly compelling is Josh's perspective on human connection in an age increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence. While acknowledging AI's transformative potential, he reminds us that technology should complement rather than replace authentic human interaction: "We need to remember our place in all of that."Whether you're a PR professional or simply someone interested in how we communicate and connect in an increasingly fragmented world, Josh's insights about building businesses with integrity, finding inspiration in "scrappy, imperfect people," and creating work environments that prioritize people over profit will resonate deeply. His call to action—to speak to neighbors, smile at strangers, and engage with people outside our usual circles—offers a simple but powerful antidote to our increasingly isolated digital lives.Tune in next week for more stories of 'Distinction & Genius' from The Good Listening To Show 'Clearing'.

The mist seemed to be swirling across the surface of the water at a measured deliberate pace; the woman watched in complete disbelief as it began to form into the shape of a human-like figure with wings. As the figure continued to take shape and rise above the water, she wasn't sure if it was an angel, demon, good, nefarious; but she knew it wasn't of this earth and it had some intent towards her – the woman panicked and fled the park as quickly as she could.This is episode 39 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we're going to learn about the ghosts and hauntings which go on at a house which was never, or perhaps … could be lived in: Woodchester Mansion.Do you love ghost stories, tales of haunted houses and poltergeist encounters? What about other areas of the paranormal – such as strange creatures, doppelgängers, time slips and even creepy unexplained disappearances? If you do, then you're in the right place — these are the topics which we'll be visiting every two weeks in the many future episodes and seasons of this show.  Also … to ensure you get the best immersive listening experience possible, there will be no advertisements in the main content of this episode.The show's end of season finale revolves around the experiences and stories from listeners just like you … so, if you have had an encounter with any element of the paranormal — and you would like to share your story, then I would love to tell it for you on the Listeners' Stories finale episode.

Our Village Hall was built in the 1800s… and honestly, the office furniture seemed like it came with the building. It was due for retirement—chairs that creaked louder than a town hall debate, desks straight out of a history book… and filing cabinets? I practically needed a crowbar to open them.Then I found out Valley Road Office Furniture is a NYS Contract vendor which guarantees the lowest possible price on office furnishings. They had everything we needed and made the whole process easy. Now, instead of wrestling with a filing cabinet, I can focus on keeping this village running smoothly.We'd love your feedback - and if you listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, hit the follow button today!**Listen to all of our podcasts here - you can also watch on YouTube, or say to your smart speaker "Play How Do You Say That?!"About our guest: All her life Deryn Oliver's voice had been commented on - but it wasn't until 2017, after appearing on the TV quiz show Cash Trapped and having Bradley Walsh and the producer mention she should be a voice actor that she decided to give it a go. She used some of her winnings to set up her home studio and undertake training and since then has voiced hundreds of projects from dry announcements for The United Nations to zany gaming characters, audiobooks, animations and Voice of God. Her naturally characterful voice tends to appeal to game developers and other entertainment projects and her biggest role yet has been voicing The Toymaker for Thorpe Park Theme Park. She has been the main character in their Halloween Fright Nights event for the last couple of years scaring the bejesus out of the general public. Deryn's Website @derynvoiceover on Instagram

In this episode Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair talk with Susannah Black Roberts about the need for a new Christian humanism. Susannah is a journalist and an editor whose imagination is shaped by her life in New York City. With infectious curiosity she guides us to ask questions about what it means to be human and proposes we respond, in the growing shadow of AI, by making and doing rather than consuming. From Aristotle to Aquinas, from CS Lewis to Alasdair McIntyre and Tim Keller, Susannah's influences lead her to resist modernity's dehumanising tendencies with simple human practices that can easily be lived out, even in the big city. At the heart of her spiritual imagination is the creativity of God's relational life, present in us as we participate in creation for the common good, rooted in praise and worship as communities of blessing.Susannah Black Roberts is Senior Editor at the international magazine Plough Quarterly and an editor at Mere Orthodoxy and has written for many publications including First Things, Front Porch Republic, and The American Conservative. A native Manhattanite married to an Englishman, she lives between New York and the West Midlands in the UK.Our work is only possible with your support.

In March 2024, a call to emergency services led police to a quiet home in the West Midlands. Inside, they found a child in bed, wrapped in a duvet. At first, it looked like she was sleeping. But appearances can be tragically deceiving.What followed was a case that would reveal shocking failures, devastating truths and a fight for justice led by someone who wasn't bound by blood - but by love.This is the story of Shay Kang - a bright, playful 10-year-old girl whose voice was silenced far too soon and whose memory now fuels a growing movement to change the law.

Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers has been propelled into Premier League stardom in what feels like a blink of an eye. From Halesowen in the West Midlands to West Bromwich Albion's academy to the Riverside Stadium (via Man City) Rogers now finds himself under the development of Unai Emery.

He asks Rob & Rob what they'd do in his position.  (5:55) Simona's in the process of buying a two-bed flat in Manchester city centre, but some red flags have popped up during conveyancing, including a big jump in service charges, a £2K deficit, and no reserve fund in place.
