For patrons only for 1 year: We trace how the notion of the “industrial revolution” – originally a foreign, Continental idea rooted in German dialectical history – entered into British political discourse and then into sacred national mythology, enshrined by the tourism industry and by Thatcherite politics. Then we examine the evolving debate over whether the alleged revolution was a good or a bad thing—or whether such an event happened at all, considering its narrow limitations in time, space, and scope. Finally, we weigh carefully the arguments that have been advanced in defense of the traditional myth, including the explosive growth of British cities, the wide divergence between Europe and the rest of the world, and the appearance of so-called “proto-industrialization” in the organization of labor before the rise of machines.

Connie Pruden Grandinetti vanished in 1988, leaving her family searching for answers for decades as suspicion continued to surround her husband. What began as a missing persons case would eventually unravel into a story of manipulation, coercive control, and an alleged cover-up that lasted years. On this episode, we look at how the investigation finally broke open, and the long road to justice for Connie and her loved ones. Joining us is Kristi Lee from the Canadian True Crime podcast.

Part 2 with Cam Hay from Mustr Racing — and this one's a ripper. Cam breaks down exactly how he picks the horses he syndicates, why his data analyst (allegedly living in a dark room under a house) is the secret weapon, and the heartbreaking yarn about the horse he was this close to buying — that went on to win a Caulfield Cup, then a Melbourne Cup. Yeah. Half Yours. Plus the boys get into why a failed vet check (Paltrow Miss) was actually the right call, how benchmark ratings work, and why Buckeye is the perfect tried horse for the Mustr syndicate — already winning by 5 lengths, well-bred, and racing again by early July. Cam also walks through the new Mustr Racing app — live updates, prize money straight into your wallet, marketplace, all the gear.

On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we're talking about the first year owning a brick-and-mortar yarn shop with my guest, Sanjani Ramkissoon. Sanjani is the owner of Stitch & Revel, a yarn shop in Livermore, California, a charming wine country town in the Bay Area, about 45 miles east of San Francisco.  Born in Fiji and raised in the Bay Area since the age of five, she considers herself an accidental business owner, turning a long-held dream into reality when an unexpected opportunity to purchase inventory from a closing yarn shop led her and her husband to take the leap. They opened Stitch & Revel in September 2025, in a new location with a fresh vision and name. Her vision for the shop was to create an experience, not just a place to buy yarn (though that's important too), but a space where creativity flows and community grows.  +++++ Today's episode is sponsored by Stitchcraft Marketing.

Knuckles sits down in Launceston, Tasmania with Cam Hay from Mustr Racing for the first ever Proper True Yarn pod recorded in Tassie. Cam runs Mustr Racing with his two brothers Michael and Tom — a micro-share syndication business making race horse ownership accessible to everyday Aussies. The boys yarn about Cam's failed-professional-punter grandfather, his dad's first horse share bought off a hot day at the races, and how Mustr has partnered with Alpha Blokes, Hello Sport, and now Knuckles himself on the new horse — Buckeye. Cam breaks down how a one-off $255 buy-in covers training fees, vet costs, race day events and a merch pack for the entire career of the horse — no surprise bills, no monthly invoices. Just the fun of being an owner without getting smashed by ongoing fees. Part 1 of 2 — next episode dives into how Cam and the boys actually pick the horses they syndicate.

We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities.

Book Club Podcast: Fiber art veterans Susan Bateman and Melissa Parsons compare notes with host Anne Merrow about the books every weaver, spinner, knitter, and crocheter should have on the bookshelf—plus big news about a classic weaving directory. They're the first books you reach for, the ones you'll never part with, and the first thing you recommend to every new crafter. If you have only one book on weaving, spinning, knitting, and crochet, make it one of these. In this episode of the Long Thread Podcast, three book lovers talk about what reading material we'd never be without. Multishaft Weavers Technique Books Learning to Weave by Deborah Chandler The classic book on four-harness weaving, this updated edition includes clear and approachable explanations, illustrations, and instructions for warping both from front to back and back to front. Weaving for Beginners, Revised and Updated by Peggy Osterkamp Another look at weaving fundamentals, Osterkamp's thorough book is especially strong in back-to-front warping. Pattern Directories Big news for “The Green Book”—A Handweaver's Pattern Book by Marguerite Porter Davison The first version of Davison's four-harness pattern directory was published in 1944, and weavers have been hunting for used copies since it went out of print decades later. A group of weavers has been quietly working on a major new edition, with new samples woven in color and contemporary drafts, which Schiffer Publishing will release in 2027! Handwoven and Yarn Barn of Kansas join the crowd of weavers eager to add the new book to our shelves. A Weaver's Book of 8-Shaft Patterns from the Friends of Handwoven, edited by Carol Strickler Organized by structure and endlessly browsable, this is the book 8-shaft weavers keep within reach when dreaming up a new project. Rigid-Heddle Weavers Ashford Book of Rigid Heddle Weaving by Rowena Hart A thorough guide to the fundamentals, this is unbeatable for its step-by-step warping and threading photography. Inventive Weaving on a Little Loom by Syne Mitchell This creative and ambitious book shows you ways of weaving that you never thought possible on a rigid-heddle loom. The useful "tech support" section offers troubleshooting suggestions for common mistakes. Knitters Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Knitting Book Clear, well organized, and full of photos and illustrations, this book has taken more knitters from scarves to sweaters than any other, with basics on everything from individual stitches to garment design. Principles of Knitting by June Hemmons Hiatt For the knitter who wants to understand the mechanics behind every technique, this reference book dives deeply into the hows and whys of every knitting topic. Crocheters How to Crochet by Sara Delaney Small, affordable, and exactly right for getting started. The Crocheter's Skill-Building Workshop by Dora Ohrenstein Once you're past the basic stitches, this book teaches you construction, shaping, texture, and other intermediate and advanced topics. Spinners The Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs by Sarah Anderson Friendly, comprehensive instructions for yarns from simple plied yarns to complex layers of twist and grist. Don't be fooled by the textured yarns on the cover—this is not just for art-yarn spinners; Anderson's studies on durability and suggestions for use make this a must-have for any spinner. The Fleece & Fiber Sourcebook by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius The Field Guide to Fleece by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius Not just for spinners, these fiber resources—the one always on your bookshelf and the smaller version you take to a festival—include details about the sources, traits, and uses of more animal fibers than you ever knew existed. Listen to our chat and tell us: Do you agree? What craft books make your must-have list? This episode is sponsored by: Learning how to weave but need the right shuttle? Hooked on knitting and in search of a lofty yarn? Yarn Barn of Kansas has been your partner in fiber since 1971. Whether you are around the corner from the Yarn Barn of Kansas, or around the country, they are truly your “local yarn store” with an experienced staff to answer all your fiber questions.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Ashleigh Freckleton was 25, living alone in London after a breakup, when she was drawn into what seemed like a spiritual yoga community. To immerse herself fully into that community, Ashleigh travelled to Romania to practice its teachings. Now featured in Apple TV's Twisted Yoga, she shares how that experience escalated into an alleged world of coercion, exploitation, and psychological control that followed her across Europe.

This week's guest is a true BAD ASS. Not because he's BIG, he's also had 40 years of Martial Arts training. He earned Black Belts across multiple disciplines. But just like in Martial Arts, he didn't get his career starting at the top. He began his journey as a white belt, packing boxes at the warehouse in the early days of Billabong. Fast-forward 30 years, he climbed the ranks to a Black Belt level career, serving as a Global VP of Supply Chain at Volcom. He led the responsible production compliance, championing for fair labor practices, and played a key role in the groundbreaking sustainability initiative “Farm to Yarn”. This guy is incredible, he is also certified firearms instructor. He's a security and protection specialist who provides tactical and medical training for both professionals and civilians through his company Mana Group Training Solutions. We're fired up and welcome to show, our good friend, Tony “BIG TONY” Alvarez.
