For most people, home represents comfort, safety, maybe family. It's the place where you can be yourself — and where you keep all your stuff. For the wealthy, the right home can mean status, reputation, and legacy, especially in the UK. For hundreds of years, the traditional English manor was more than simply a big house staffed with servants. It was a grand home situated on farmland owned by the family. In addition to being a showpiece, it was a responsibility. The US equivalent is a Gilded Age mansion, minus the need to worry about the welfare of tenants. Those 20th-century robber barons could simply count their money and throw lavish dinner parties. And in Europe, the history and luxurious accommodations come in the form of palaces, chateaux, castles, palazzos, and other opulent estates. In this episode, we explore the house -as-character in books by iconic authors, including Jane Austen, the Brontë sisters, Nancy Mitford, and a gaggle of Gothic writers. We also delve into the real secrets of the Winchester Mystery House and meet the various ghosts haunting British country piles. Then we recommend many books we love set in notable manor homes, including: The Original by Nell Stevens The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters The Cherry Robbers by Sarai Walker — and the audiobook The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie Wakenhyrst by Michelle Paver — and the audiobook For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

As he embarks on his 'More Evenings of Songs and Stories' tour, Graham Nash joins Simon and Brian for a fascinating discussion about his illustrious career. The legendary British musician reflects on his journey from The Hollies to forming the iconic Crosby, Stills & Nash, sharing insights into his songwriting process and the art of capturing everyday moments in music.

Because of the manner of his preaching over time, it is not unusual to find Spurgeon creating his own connections, contrasts, and counterpoints. You may find little sermon ‘runs' as he works through, for example, the stages of Christian maturity in 1 John 2. Sometimes he will say something like, “A few Sabbaths ago we looked at that, but today we must consider this so that we do not lose sight of either.” In this sermon, he is building on a previous sermon, seeking to lift up a particular aspect of truth already addressed and press it home in a particular direction. Is Christ the Beloved of the Father? Then what does it mean for us to accepted in the Beloved Son? Spurgeon suggests that this is more a matter for sweet meditation than for didactic instruction, and so proceeds to unpack his text in a series of thoughts which invariably focus on Christ the Beloved, and what it means for God to receive us for his sake. A note of joyful wonder permeates the sermon, as the preacher—ranging far and wide through Scripture and nature for illumination and illustration—digs ever deeper into the delight of being accepted by the Great Father for the sake of his Beloved Son.

And we've been here before with the Eagles, but do they have what it takes to make a deep playoff run?

I SEE A FAMOUS BABY IN THE FUTURE – THE STAGE NAME DICAPRIO ALMOST HAD – Shatner in the hospital – AND A GREAT LIST OF ONE HIT WONDERS Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their third baby . . . and FIRST girl. It's hard to imagine Leonardo DiCaprio with a different name. But it almost happened. A lot of celebrities were born with "ethnic"-sounding names, but changed them as they pursued fame . . . either because they were told to, or they themselves thought it would help. We discussed more celeb name changes. We haven't had a good supergroup in a while. But that's about to change, thanks to Howl Owl Howl. Vince Neil Reveals Multiple StrokesMötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil has opened up about his recent health scare.

Doctors later told him it wasn't his first—he's actually had four strokes over the years, including two he never realized. Neil says the cause was a blood clot in his leg that traveled to his brain.Next James Bond Casting PlansDirector Denis Villeneuve says casting for the next James Bond begins in 2026 once he wraps Dune: Part Three.

//The Wire//2300Z September 25, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: UK ANNOUNCES NATIONAL MANDATORY DIGITAL ID. RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT INTERCEPTED OFF ALASKAN COAST. CHICAGO POLICE OFFICER INDICTED FOR SMUGGLING GUNS TO CARTEL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-United Kingdom: Scandal has erupted following the announcement of a national identification paper scheme. The British government is set to implement a mandatory digital ID system that will be required for all British citizens to be allowed to function in society.Europe: Drone incursions have continued over the past few days, with limited reports of drone incursions popping up in Norway and Denmark. Overnight, more drones were spotted over the port city of Korsor, along with a handful of airports scattered around the country.Analyst Comment: Right now it's hard to tell if these drone reports are any different than the standard incursions that have become common in civilian aviation over the past few years. When an airport sends out a hazard report to pilots, a description of "UAS activity" doesn't really indicate much. What is quite clear is that the initial drone reports in Denmark were vastly different than most of the typical quadcopter reports that are more common. However, now that media attention is on the skies once again, it's possible that more drone sightings will be reported. It's also very likely that, now that people are paying attention, more people will confuse legitimate drone threats with commercial aircraft, as has been a trend lately.-HomeFront-Mississippi: This morning 911 call center services went offline for the entire state, which local authorities state were caused by a "series of fiber optic cuts".Analyst Comment: Right now it's not clear as to if this was the result of malign action, or by accident. Generally speaking it would be a bad idea for an entire state's critical infrastructure to be vulnerable to one swipe of a backhoe, but it's certainly possible.Illinois: A Chicago police officer has been indicted for smuggling weapons for cartels in Mexico. The indictment states that Officer Kevin Rodriguez used his law enforcement credentials to purchase firearms that were illegal for normal citizens to buy in the states of Illinois and Indiana. He was then paid by a cartel member by the name of Diego Valdez, who took possession of the firearms and smuggled them into Mexico. Analyst Comment: This scheme allegedly ran from September to December of 2024, and so far all of the court documents indicate that only two rifles were smuggled into Mexico. However, this may be a larger network, as these types of arrangements usually go on for some time before they are detected.Alaska: This morning US Air Force aircraft were scrambled to intercept Russian bombers off the west coast. A flight of Russian Tu-95 BEAR H aircraft were observed approaching the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), which prompted American aircraft to intercept them and escort them during their flight near American airspace.Analyst Comment: This is a fairly standard event that usually goes unnoticed most of the time. However, this case is probably related to President Trump's recent comments on Russia's incursions in Europe, namely stating that European powers should shoot down Russian aircraft that violate their airspace.New York: As the UN General Assembly continues, President Trump met with the new leader of Syria, Ahmed Al-Sharq, where he is expected to be a focal point of this year's summit.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: As a reminder, Ahmed Al-Sharq changed his name upon seizing power a few months ago. His previous name was Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, a high-ranking al-Qaeda commander from the Global War on Terror. Upon his AQ-linked militia group seizing power during the fall of the Assad regime, he changed

Matthew and original co-host Paul Hoppe dive into the psychology and ethics of sports fandom through the lens of the British film Fever Pitch. From childhood Mets devotion to adult poker room baseball discussions, they explore how sports shape our social connections, teach us about loss, and hold the potential to become obsessions.The conversation weaves between personal fandom stories, the communal nature of sports culture, and the complex relationship between hope, disappointment, and identity that defines the fan experience.Key Questions We Explored:Why do sports serve as social lubricant? How knowing "what happened in the game last night" opens doors to conversations with strangers and provides safe topics with difficult relationshipsWhat happens when fandom conflicts with social identity? The tension between sports culture and alternative subcultures like goth/punk communities in the 1990sHow do we balance obsession with healthy relationships? The Fever Pitch protagonist's struggle to integrate his Arsenal devotion with romantic partnershipWhat does losing teach us about life? The variance, randomness, and "never give up" lessons that emerge from following teams through disappointmentWhy is it so hard to switch team loyalties? The deep psychological roots of childhood fandom and failed attempts to adopt new teams as adultsHow has sports economics changed the fan experience? From $8 bleacher seats to luxury boxes and the transformation of sports into premium entertainmentNote: This episode experienced technical difficulties and ended abruptly during the discussion of failure and loss in sports. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

We're in New York this week, celebrating my mam's 90th birthday and launching The History of Money in the U.S., but the backdrop is America's deepening culture war. With the 250th anniversary of the Revolution looming, both liberals and MAGA are fighting to “own” the flag, the story, and the soul of America. We dive into Ken Burns's new PBS series The American Revolution, the forgotten role of General O'Hara (an Irishman who surrendered for the British), and why 75% of Black troops fought for the Crown. We reflect on Monica Lewinsky's powerful talk on shame in the internet age, before turning to the fallout from Charlie Kirk's killing, how one event is being weaponised to fuel division, echoing darker moments of history like Kristallnacht. And we look ahead: could the 2026 World Cup become the liberals' unlikely answer to MAGA pageantry? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Prince Andrew has become a perpetual liability for the British monarchy, with his scandals continuing to overshadow the institution's attempts at modernization and public service. His long association with Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent settlement with Virginia Giuffre, while never an admission of guilt, has cemented him in the public mind as a man of disgrace who cannot be trusted. Every time his name resurfaces, it drags the monarchy back into a mire of sleaze and scandal, reminding the world of his recklessness and arrogance. His inability to account honestly for his relationships and behavior, paired with his disastrous BBC “Newsnight” interview, exposed not only his own lack of judgment but also the monarchy's tone-deafness in handling crises.Even after being stripped of official duties, Andrew remains a thorn in the side of the royal family, his mere presence at events sparking public outrage and critical headlines. His clinging to privilege, combined with his refusal to step aside completely, undermines the monarchy's carefully managed image of dignity and service. Instead of fading into obscurity, his scandals linger as a living reminder of hypocrisy at the heart of the institution—a prince who used his position recklessly and now stains the legacy of the monarchy with every reemergence. His behavior continues to erode the trust and respect the monarchy depends on for survival in the modern era.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Art Newspaper's chief contributing editor, Gareth Harris, has just published a new book, Towards the Ethical Art Museum, which explores a range of issues affecting museums in the 21st century, from questions of provenance and restitution to funding and governance and responsibilities to staff and the communities the museums serve. He joins Ben Luke to discuss the book. One of the exhibitions of the year has just opened in Florence in Italy: the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi and the Museo di San Marco are jointly presenting Fra Angelico, devoted to the great 15th-century Florentine master. Our digital editor, Alexander Morrison talks to Carl Brandon Strehlke, a curator emeritus of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and curator of the exhibition. And this episode's Work of the Week is PsychoBarn (Cut-Up) by Cornelia Parker, an installation first made in 2023 and relating closely to the British artist's 2016 project for the roof commission for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Transitional Object (PsychoBarn).

After the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the US military had to admit that they were either negligent or simply unable to stop the looting and destruction of priceless and countless antiquities in the museums of that country. Specifically Baghdad. Some believe that the US military had something to do with it. Currently, we are watching something similar happen in Gaza as archaeologists have been forced to rush artifacts out of bombed cities as Israeli troops make their ground assault. Considering how similar the latter is to the former, it's not out of the realm of possibility that the targeting of museums is part of a broader cultural genocide. The same goes for militant groups like Isis, a supposedly Muslim group that targeted mosques and their own regional historical monuments. If the British, Americans, and Israelis do run these groups, then it would make them essentially paramilitary branches of much larger western governments that clearly, under a Christian-Jewish ethos, desire to destroy far older evidence of sophisticated and advanced cultures and ideas considered enemies to their own.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this smooth-sailing conversation with Malcolm Gosling Jr., 8th generation steward of the Goslings Rum company, some of the topics we discuss include: How a lapsed ship charter to Virginia kicked off the Gosling family's spirited enterprise on the humble 21 square mile rock in the middle of the Atlantic known as Bermuda. The ways in which Goslings rum both conforms to and expands what most rum nerds think of when they hear the term “British-style Caribbean rum,” and why the family's roots in sourcing, blending, and retail are key to the entire flavor profile and identity. We also dig into two key brand stories: the origins of the “Black Seal Rum” name and logo, which involves upcycling Champagne Bottles used by the British navy, and of course the legend of how one poor bartender's failure to politely cut off a drunk guy is responsible for the Dark ‘N Stormy cocktail. And we wrap up by covering some of Goslings Rum's longer-aged and special edition products that will pique the interest of any rum enthusiast, including their “Spirited Seas” project that's aged aboard the Oleander cargo ship. Along the way, we discover why pigs gave Bermuda a scary reputation back in the day, explore some of the creative activations Malcolm and his team are pursuing as “The Official Rum of Leisure,” take a spin in crazy aunt Shiela's industrial rum swizzle machine, and much, much more.

Leaders around the world are warning their citizens to completely ignore the fact-free medical advice that is coming out of Donald Trump and his cabinet. The British Health Ministry has specifically warned their citizens that the claims are completely false, and the World Health Organization has come out and said that the claims made by Trump and the cabinet on Monday are not based on any real science. The world is laughing at us, as usual.Hundreds of people who were detained at the infamous "Alligator Alcatraz" facility in Florida cannot be located in any federal database, including lists of deportations. These individuals have simply been "disappeared" by the federal government after they were ordered to close down the facility and relocate all of the detainees - which included legal residents. This is the most terrifying development in the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, as these people have simply dropped off the map, and the administration made that happen. America is once again on the brink of a government shutdown, the 8th time this has happened since Republicans took over the House of Representatives following the 2022 midterms. Donald Trump was supposed to be meeting with House and Senate Democrats on Thursday, but decided to chicken out at the last minute because that's what he does best. Trump doesn't want to have to sit with the "mean" Democrats and actually try a little diplomacy, so the "Great Dealmaker" has decided to run and hide. Donald Trump repeated his favorite false claim at the UN this week when he said that he has ended 7 wars since taking office in January. He's made this claim so many times that reporters aren't even bothering to fact check it, and that's a very real problem. These "7 wars" are ALL still happening, with major military operations and deaths in just the last week taking place between these countries. None of the fighting has stopped, but Trump is doing a victory lap over paper victories and photo ops. Karoline Leavitt was forced to twist herself into knots this week in order to defend the bribery allegations against border czar Tom Homan along with Donald Trump's hateful rhetoric - literally declaring that he HATES his opponents. Leavitt dismissed both of these events, saying that neither person did anything wrong, in spite of both of the incidents being caught on video. Leavitt wants you to think that all bad things are good if Republicans do them, and they can only be considered bad if Democrats do them.Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

A shooting occurred at an ICE facility in Dallas that left multiple people injured and potentially killed, as well as the shooter, who appeared to have taken his own life. While more details of the shooting aren't known, Glenn lays out what we do know: The world has gone mad. Glenn goes through some of the recent radical leftists advocating for political violence. Jimmy Kimmel and his show, as much as he tries to convince you, are not a free-speech issue. Glenn previews another clip of his interview with British comedian Katie Hopkins, who shares how she was forced to lose her children and her home due to the British government targeting her for her speech. Glenn discusses how America is entering a Bermuda Triangle of political violence, speech control, and uneven justice. Glenn warns that if we don't escape this triangle soon, America will fall. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) joins to discuss what we know about the shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas and how America needs to fix its violence issue. Turning Point Faith Co-Chair and pastor of Charlie Kirk Rob McCoy joins to discuss how South Korea arrested a pastor in what is being called a "targeted arrest" against Christians.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Prisoners of war or POWs during the 20th century were a part of war. Beligerant nations had to develop systems to guard, house, and feed their prisoners, and before the war, in 1929, most countries had agreed on how prisoners would be treated in captivity. In reality, conditions for POWs differed dramatically, particularly for captured German soldiers. Those captured by the Soviets faced a far different fate than those captured by the Americans or British.  Learn more about German POWs who were held in the United States, what they experienced, and how it shaped the post-war world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The British author and journalist Oliver Burkeman has spent decades pondering what it means to live a meaningful life, both in his former Guardian column “This Column WIll Change Your Life” and across several books—most recently, Meditations for Mortals, out in paperback this October. That's why he brings a healthy dose of skepticism to so-called “time management” systems and productivity hacks as a means toward true fulfillment. Burkeman's compelled by the notion that, rather than being separate from time, human beings are time. If people faced the reality of their limited time on the planet head on, he believes there's a real chance to experience greater, more engaged feelings of aliveness.On the episode—our Season 12 kick-off—Burkeman discusses why he's eschewing  perfectionism and finding unexpected liberation in the premise that, to some extent, the worst has already happened, and the best may still be ahead.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:Oliver Burkeman[4:26] “Meditations for Mortals” (2024)[6:48] Donald Winnicott[7:46] Martin Heidegger[7:46] "Technics and Civilization" (2010)[7:46] “Being and Time” (1927)[7:46] “Time Warrior” (2011)[7:46] “Time Surfing” (2017)[7:46] “Anti-Time Management” (2022)[10:14] Medieval peasants[10:14] “The 4-Hour Workweek”[13:18] Alicja Kwade[19:23] “Ichi-go, ichi-e” (“one time, one meeting”)[22:00] Eckhart Tolle[22:36] Agnes Martin[23:28] “The Road Not Taken”[40:03] “This Column Will Change Your Life”[51:00] Nicholas Carr[51:00] Clay Shirky[53:40] Jennifer Roberts[59:04] Pomodoro Technique [59:13] Kanban[1:01:33] James Hollis[1:02:40] Alfred Adler[1:02:40] “The Courage to Be Disliked” (2024)[1:06:24] Stoicism

SOF selection is a proving ground, where your physical, mental, and emotional raw material will be laid bare, with nothing to hide behind. It's a place where you voluntarily walk into a brutal challenge to find out if who you think you are matches who you are. It's a way of answering a question that few people are willing to ask. Mo Anthoine, a British mountaineer, referred to this as "feeding the rat." Think of the "rat" as that gnawing part of you that needs challenge, risk, and uncertainty. You feel better when it's been fed. As Anthoine put it, "I think it's because there is always a question mark about how you would perform. You have an idea of yourself and it can be quite a shock when you don't come up to your own expectations. If you just tootle along you can think you're a pretty slick bloke until things go wrong and you find you're nothing like you imagined yourself to be. But if you deliberately put yourself in difficult situations, then you get a pretty good idea of how you're going. That's why I like feeding the rat."Everyone has a rat to feed. You only choose how you feed it.

The Parthenon Sculptures have been hugely controversial objects from the moment that they arrived in England. The British public has long been split over the morality of keeping these famous works of art in London. In the early 1800's the famous poet Lord Byron went so far as to write angry poems castigating Lord Elgin for defiling Athena's temple. Over the last 200 years the topic of the sculptures has remained a perennial topic of public debate. Where are we at with that debate in 2025? Tune-in and find out how 19th century diss tracks, half a nose, and the "universal museum" all play a role in the story.Come with me to Greece in September 2025!

When a London couple were found dead in a lover's lane, in 1987, evidence pointed quickly at some of the city's most notorious gangland figures — both established and upcoming. But despite informants and wiretaps the trail ran cold.Then another body showed up. Then another. Before long, cops were connecting the dots between four different killings, all carried out in disturbing fashion across the British capital. And it looked a lot like the Metropolitan Police, London's historic force, was directly involved. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Josh Foer and Rabbi Charlie Schwartz set out to create a new kind of Jewish space, one that would be welcoming, thought-provoking, delicious, and even cool. The result is Lehrhaus — a Jewish tavern and house of learning. This week Dan visits Lehrhaus in Somerville, Massachusetts, where he takes a tour of their “magical Jewish objects,” checks out the room where they host events on everything from religious texts to the secret Jewish history of punk music, and, of course, digs into their food and drink. The menu — fashioned after a page of Talmud — tells a story of the global Jewish experience, from fish and chips (perhaps a Sephardic contribution to British cuisine) to a cocktail based on the Jewish neighborhood in Kolkata.The Sporkful production team includes Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Kameel Stanley, and Jared O'Connell.
