The government should limit public funding for cricket unless there is "continuous, demonstrable progress" on eradicating "deep-seated racism", a parliamentary report has recommended. The report by the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee also praises the former Yorkshire player Azeem Rafiq, who spoke about the abuse he suffered in November. Today's Martha Kearney speaks to Julian Knight, a Conservative MP who chairs the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee, and Richard Thompson, chairman of Surrey Cricket. Also reflecting on the report is Azeem Rafiq himself.

Returning for an all new season in 2022 we head into the wilds of Yorkshire and discover the terrors of the anomalous zone. What creatures haunt this land? Starting with what seemed to be standard ufological phenomena, one dedicated researcher quickly realised the space was infected with wolflike humanoids and other unexplainable creatures. We dive deep into some of those encounters and wonder about their true nature and purpose. Then in our Plus+ extension we continue the discussion and look at the reports of such monsters being electromagnetically induced.

After 20 years of planning, preparation and a nail-biting build up fraught by delays The James Webb Space telescope finally launched on Christmas day 2021. Anxious astronomers across the globe looked on as the JWST then completed even riskier manoeuvres to unfurl the 18 hexagonal components that make up its 6.5 meter diameter primary mirror. Cosmologist Dr Sheona Urquhart from the Open University tells us about the astronomical community's tense Christmas day. Fresh from a TV spot on BBC Two's Digging for Britain this week, Dr Dean Lomax and PhD candidate Emily Swaby share their excitement unearthing Rutland's ‘Sea Dragon' and explore what this find could tell us about Ichthyosaurs. At over 10 meters long this ancient ocean predator is the largest complete fossil of its kind to be discovered in the UK. Ichthyosaurs are commonly associated with Dorset and Yorkshire coastlines where fossils are often revealed as surrounding rock is eroded by the elements. Finding an ichthyosaur fossil inland is unusual but not unexpected as the higher sea levels 200 million years ago would put the east midlands underwater. And whilst the palaeontologists have been struggling through the Jurassic mud, cognition researchers at the University of Cambridge have been wowing their birds with magic tricks. Professor Nicky Clayton FRS, Professor of Comparative Cognition, explains what we can learn about the way jays think by assessing their reaction to different sleight-of-hand tricks. Corvids, the family to which these feathered friends belong, have long interested researchers due to their impressive cognitive abilities and Nicky's team has shown that their Jays are not fooled by all of the same mis-directions as we are, but are fooled by some. And it could be down to not being able to tell the difference between a finger and a feather.

The news in 2021 got pretty weird! There were time travellers on TikTok and Yeti's in Yorkshire. Join me today to find out more about these weird stories. First up we learn about a tiktoker who is apparently from the future. Tiktok user Timetraveller2582 popped up claiming they were from the future and prophesying the weirdest events that may happen in the next few years. Then, a YouTube channel popped up with vintage videos which they'd discovered of a lost set of documentaries on @British Cryptids which spawned a channel of the same name. British Cryptids pieced together these documentaries into some kind of salvageable order and have published them throughout the year. Please go and subscribe to their channel for more vids. I can't wait to see what they unearth next. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA0B... Thanks so much for watching!

As many schools prepare to return following the Christmas break how should pupils and teachers protect themselves against Covid-19? Also in the programme: EU labels nuclear as 'green' energy; and Lebanon's year of hardship.

Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the aficionados of Emily Brontë they are the misguided worshippers of a circumscribed mind. In Wuthering Heights, Brontë dispensed with Austen's niceties and the upper-middle class drawing rooms of Bath and the home counties. Her backdrop is the savage Yorkshire moors, her subject the all-consuming passions of the heart. To help you decide who should be crowned queen of English letters we have the lined up the best advocates to make the case for each writer. In this event, chaired by author and critic Erica Wagner, we invited guests including author Kate Mosse, Professor and author John Mullan, and actors Mariah Gale, Samuel West and Dominic West, to discuss each writer's influence.

Dennis Marshall was born in Yorkshire, England 90 years ago. About forty years later he went to a lecture at the City Center of the SFZC and was right away sold on Suzuki and the general communal feeling there. About thirty years ago he moved to Crestone, Colorado, and since then has been involved with Richard Baker and Dharma Sangha. 

We ask the important questions this week. Yorkshire puddings with your Christmas dinner? Top tier quality street sweets? How many lindor balls did Matt get through? Josh is late to the show again as he's busy finding new friends in Flag. Even if he thinks he is too big time for the other boys, they soon bring him back down to earth with a quick counselling session. With 8 weeks to go until Seville (unless we're locked down again by then), Matt thinks it's probably time to start marathon training. He had his booster jab early in the week that knocked him out for 24 hours, but finished the week with solid session after a few solid sessions around the Christmas dinner table. Aaron is now on cold variant #17653, but despite joking about it being Covid on the pod, he did test negative. He manages to get a couple of runs in early in the week, but not enough mileage which results in him having the lowest yearly mileage amongst the three. Thanks for supporting the show, Happy Christmas and here's to an even better 2022! Aaron, Matt and Josh

Paul Thomas Anderson discusses directing and writing his new romantic comedy, Licorice Pizza, starring Sean Penn, Bradley Cooper and Tom Waits. The film is a coming-of-age story, complicated by the fact that the protagonist is 15 and his love interest, 25. In our Christmas card from Doncaster, the host of the BBC's Yorkshire-cast and local boy, James Vincent, meets Deborah Rees, Director of CAST Theatre and Connor Bryson, an actor appearing in the BSL integrated pantomime, Aladdin. Street art duo Nomad Clan reflect on the making of the UK's longest mural, and local musician Skinny Pelembe shares his lockdown Song for South Yorkshire. Last night, the longest of the year, musicians Eliza Carthy and Jon Boden intended to bring good cheer, light and joyful music with a wassail concert, but the omicron variant put paid to that. Instead Eliza and Jon will be bringing some of what was planned to Front Row, explaining the ancient tradition of wassailing – the word comes from the Anglo Saxon for good health - and singing and playing.

Are you ready to be kind to yourself and your team members? It's time to focus on synergy within our lives! In this episode, I welcome Dr. Karen Tindall who is originally from Yorkshire, England. There she was a family dentist prior to entering orthodontics. She and her family moved to the United States when her husband had a job opportunity here. After some time as a stay-at-home mother, she became an internationally accredited professional life coach for female dentists who are juggling their busy careers as well as family life at home.  Noting the outdated nature of “work-life balance,” Dr. Tindall explains why she created a new concept of looking at juggling life at work and life at home. Her new concept is called the work-life synergy approach. She says, “It's impossible to separate your life from your work and vice versa… It encourages you to blend those various parts of your life together so they work as a whole… It's much easier to create something that makes you feel good.” This episode focuses on wellness: both your own wellness as well as the wellness of your team. This may mean handing some tasks off to others to manage or finding creative solutions by opening your thinking to how you can manage to accomplish tasks. It is critical that we spread the message of focusing on wellness within dental practice teams, and that starts with YOU - the owner. There is great value in focusing on the ROI of investing in yourself before anything else, and this episode will show you some ways to create work-life synergy! Highlights from this episode: Work-life synergy: what it is and how to view it The blending of work life and home life Equilibrium's sliding scale and how it can let you be kinder to yourself The mental load concept of owning a dental practice How to reduce or remove the mental load by sharing tasks  The Mint Door as a space for open conversation: its elements and how you can join Bringing wellness to the forefront of dental practices Resources and links mentioned:  Laura's free course:  Redirecting Your Employees Fair Play by Eve Rodsky The Mint Door website Watch Laura's podcasts on YouTube:  Love Your Practice!

This is episode 4 of 12 in our mini series focusing on missing people throughout the UK. On the 24th January 1997, Marsha Wray took her two children to school just around the corner from their home in Harrogate in North Yorkshire. It was a Friday and the day was as normal as it usually was. She assured her children she would be there to pick them up when the school day ended and she drove away from the school gates. That would be the last time her family or anybody would see Marsha. The investigation has been ongoing for over two decades with lots of speculation about happened to her that day.Important information provided by:https://www.itv.com/news/tyne-tees/topic/marsha-wray/https://www.harrogate-news.co.uk/2013/10/16/marsha-wray-cold-case-review-appeal/https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/10739802.unit-review-case-nurse-vanished-1997/https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/crime/new-police-team-aims-solve-case-missing-marsha-1854824https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/7938367.fresh-heartache-for-family-of-missing-woman/https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/7965341.pain-of-missing-mums-family/Music by: www.dl-sounds.comFollow us on social media:Twitter- @theunseenpodFacebook- The Unseen PodcastYoutube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeX9lQupoivDexPioj0b9Fw

WAZE JUST ADDED A HUGE FEATURE TESLA AND OTHER EV OWNERS HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR - Google-owned auto navigation app Waze is debuting a new EV charging station map filter for U.S. users in partnership with Volkswagen. - WIth the layer turned on, drivers will be able to spot them from route view, peek at their status, and redirect their journeys to one in case they need a pit stop. A Waze spokesperson clarified to us that it shows EV charging stations from a large database, not just ones in the VW-owned Electrify America network. It's the same capabilities that sister app Google Maps introduced in 2019. - Looking into charging sites, users will see ads for VW's new ID.4 electric SUV. They'll be able to change their Waze avatar to look like an ID.4 as well, at least for the time being.

During so-called hot-region testing on tracks and public roads all over the world, the development engineers primarily verify the performance and reliability of the electric motors, the all-wheel drive and the high-voltage battery when being exposed to maximum stress from high temperatures, unpaved roads, dust and large differences in altitude. - The road to series production takes the prototypes of the BMW i7 over gravel tracks into deserts, into the mountains and on a whole series of highly dynamic routes. The BMW i7, the world's only purely electrically powered luxury sedan, will be presented in the course of 2022 together with other model variants of the new BMW 7 Series. - The components of the fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology developed for the BMW i7 demonstrate their unrestricted functionality even under the most adverse conditions when being used continuously in extremely high outside temperatures, permanent sunlight and dry conditions.

This is the last episode before we take a podcasting break for the holidays. See you back here in January 2022!  And yes, we're trying out a new name. The focus of the podcast has become broader than the topic of “taking a gap year.” So the new name is [B]OLDER: Making the most of growing older. In other words, boldly reinventing life and work at midlife and beyond. Debbie is always on the lookout for guests who can lend a new perspective to the concept of time and our perception of how much of it we have. So when she read Oliver Burkeman's new book, Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, she knew he had to come on the show. Plus the book is terrific and it's getting lots of notice.The first sentence is “The average human life span is absurdly, terrifyingly, insultingly short.” In other words, about 4,000 weeks.Oliver is a British author and journalist who wrote a popular weekly column, This Column Will Change Your Life, for The Guardian for over a decade. He has reported from London, Washington and New York and recently moved with his wife and son from Brooklyn, NY back to Yorkshire in the UK to be near his family. He has established himself as a tongue-in-cheek expert on productivity and time management and how that does - or does not - lead to happiness. He sums up his new book very nicely in his Twitter profile: explaining that 4,000 Weeks is about embracing limitation and finally getting round to what matters. As he's 46, he's only lived about 2,400 of those 4,000 weeks himself but he tells Debbie in this episode  that he may be getting closer to a better relationship with time.Debbie and Oliver talk about time and self-worth, why we are so future-oriented, the connection between time and happiness, and why it might be okay that we use social media as a distraction. Oliver is a contrarian thinker but he's truly interested in how to build a meaningful life. Debbie had a number of aha moments in this conversation and listeners will too! Mentioned in this episode or useful:Oliver Burkeman's website@oliverburkeman on TwitterFour Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2021)The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking by Oliver Burkeman (Farrar, Straus and Giroux; Reprint edition, 2013)This Column Will Change Your Life (The Guardian, 2006 - 2020)Jung on the Provisional Life (Jungian Center for the Spiritual Sciences)Who is Marie-Louise von Franz?

Mike lost his son to suicide at aged 31 and I had a deep yet painful conversation with him about it.   Mike McCarthy has worked as a journalist in newspapers, radio and television for almost 40 years as a producer, reporter and presenter. His assignments have included the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, terrorist attacks on the Boston marathon, the Canadian parliament in Ottawa and the Manchester Arena in the UK. His range of stories stretches from politics in Washington DC to rioting in Athens, demonstrations in Gaza, floods in the UK and sporting triumphs across Europe.   Mike has interviewed almost all UK prime ministers since the 1970s including Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair. He also once had the privilege of meeting and interviewing boxing legend Muhammad Ali.   He covered and was deeply affected by the Hillsborough Disaster in which 96 football fans lost their lives in 1989. Mike says: “It made me much more aware of how interested parties can try to form a distorted narrative and that, unless we are very careful, history can be shaped by dishonesty.”   Mike lives in Yorkshire with his wife Glenys. In February this year his son Ross died by suicide aged just 31. In his farewell letter he asked his family to campaign for better mental health services and Mike is trying to honour Ross's request.  

If you are a small business owner, there is a good chance you feel a little bit like a gerbil on a treadmill. You're running and chasing the food, but you never quite catch it. Our guest, author Matthew Turner doesn't think it needs to be that way. In his new book Beyond the Pale, he explains that many of us think we own a business, but somehow it starts to own us. When you make a decision to work less, if forces you to think about who do you want to work with? If you have to  choose a type of client what does that client look like? If you are going to choose one personal project what will it be? And finally, what do you want to commit to over the next year, two years, three years. When Matthew made the change in his business he ended up working half the time and earning twice as much.   About Matthew Matthew Turner is a British author who lives in a small town in Yorkshire, England. Having previously published three novels and a non-fiction business book, he wrote ‘Beyond The Pale' on the back of interviewing hundreds of successful entrepreneurs, authors, investors, and thought-leaders. Gaining a unique insight into areas such as mindset, flow, and personal development, and a gaining reputation for crafting compelling stories out of other peoples' lives, Matthew builds relatable fables for those looking to live a meaningful and purpose-driven life. As well as writing for himself, Matthew ghostwrites both articles and books for other successful entrepreneurs and thought-leaders, in-between spending time with his two children.

It's Christmas! And that means we're breaking out the jingle bells for one last trip down memory lane, as we finally delve in to the Wakefield Legacy: the Untold Story. Yes, it's Ned's ancestors' turn to take centre stage, complete with a LOT of revisionist family history! Saddle up Theodore Wakefield's stallion Raven and gallop into the past, from the Yorkshire moors to the American mid-west, from jazz clubs to reservations and of course Sweet Valley California. There are yet more runaway aristocrats, but there are also trapeze artists and single mothers and crusading journalists and brave POWs and political protestors, reminding us that Elizabeth and Jessica's ancestors are way cooler than they are. Oh the humanity! Merry Christmas, everyone. This show is part of the HeadStuff Podcast Network.

Un grand classique anglais, dont je n’avais jamais entendu parler et que depuis que je l’ai découvert, j’ai juste une grosse envie, le faire. Petite intro, il me faut parler du Yorkshire pudding, une sorte de pâte à crêpe (lait, œufs, farine) salée et poivrée, cuite dans un plat à four, ou en petites portions dans un moule à muffins, qui sert d’accompagnement des viandes pas seulement dans le Yorkshire, mais partout en Angleterre. Le but, c’est d’avoir une belle viande rôtie et son jus de cuisson, ou même de préparer un " gravy " à part, et de bien saucer avec le Yorkshire pudding. ---Tous les jeudis à 11h45, Fanny Gillard et Carlo de Pascale voyagent dans l’univers culinaire de notre style de vie rock n' roll. Et si cela vous met l’eau à la bouche, alors vous retrouverez également toutes les recettes de Carlo sur notre site Classic21.be dans la rubrique Cook As You Are.

— The practice of present moment awareness take us directly INTO the raw experience of life in this moment now, exactly as it is. In that sense, our way out is through. Through the tough terrain we had hoped to avoid but with a totally different mindset and perspective than we have had before. We have practiced the perspective of egocentricity from a very young age, so have mostly come to experience ourselves as totally alone in the world, trapped within ourselves, our thoughts, feelings, our past and so on. In present moment awareness, we can quite rapidly become aware of a silent, still and spacious presence deep within us that is in fact not shaken by the storm of discomfort or pain we may feel is raging all around us. By stopping our efforts to escape, becoming still, silent and aware of the empty space around us and within us, we can make a connection with our own innate state of pure, divine presence. That is to say, we can make a direct connection to the dimension of Spirit. Practicing present moment awareness takes you directly into the reality of this present moment. So, if there is unresolved pain or trauma still within you in this moment, it stands to reason that you will face it when you become more present. But do not fear, whatever trauma that might be revealed is no match for the disarming love and compassion and healing kindness of the gaze of presence. This is the heart of compassion that resides in the very fabric of our awareness and which can untangle the most twisted of knots. If you can sit and notice silence and space and stillness at the very moment you are experiencing the arising of fear, pain, suffering, anxiety, panic, sadness, depression, grief, craving, despair or any other form of troublesome human experience then you will be presenting that human suffering directly to the heart of presence and therefore to unconditional love. Remaining present as you move through any kind of pain will bring the light of pure love to that pain and aid your recovery from it and your passage through to a renewal and regeneration of that part of yourself. Valeria Teles interviews Mike Jenkins — the author of “The Gift of the Present: How to Experience More Peace, Joy and Happiness Through Present Moment Awareness.” Mike began exploring Spiritual Practice with a voracious zeal after a diagnosis of cancer at the age of 29. In 2010, he began to experience more profound changes in his perception of himself, others and of life and began writing about this on a blog. He has given talks in Leicester, Yorkshire, Lancaster, London and Brighton, recorded dozens of videos on YouTube, was interviewed on the popular Spiritual Awakening video series Buddha at the Gas Pump and has written many articles and short eBooks. Mike currently hosts regular weekly and monthly Present Moment Awareness Group sessions on Zoom, offers private guided sessions for individuals and shares articles, eBooks and MP3 meditations on his website.

The inspiration is Love. The aspiration is to awaken new ways of thinking that can lead us to a new way of being, being well. 

Verbal arts, explains Karin Barber, emeritus professor of African cultural anthropology at the University of Birmingham, are “any form of words that have been composed in order to attract attention or invite interpretation which is intended to be repeatable in some way.” They are, she continues, central to all sorts of social processes, “just as much a part of people's lives as kinship or economic activities.” In this Social Science Bites podcast, Barber offers a specific case study of the application of the verbal arts by examining in depth some of the genres common in the Yoruba-speaking areas of Western Africa. Barber said there are more than 30 million people who speak Yoruba, with the largest number in southwestern Nigeria, where much of Barber's own scholarship has taken place. She describes the study of Yoruba as a large field in academe, with “hundreds and hundreds” of Yoruba scholars building it up. Barber herself grew up in Yorkshire and did her first degree, in English, at Cambridge University. She next studied social anthropology at University College London and after a stint in Uganda was told that if she really wanted to pursue her examination of African theater she should go to Nigeria. Her Ph.D. – based on 37 months of field work studying oral poetic performance in everyday life in a Yoruba town - came from Nigeria's University of Ifẹ (now Ọbafẹmi Awolọwọ University). Barber then spent the next seven years as a lecturer in the Department of African Languages and Literatures at the University of Ifẹ, where courses were taught in Yoruba. Barber's scholarship has resulted in several notable books and monographs. The 1991 monograph I Could Speak Until Tomorrow: Oriki, Women and the Past in a Yoruba Town won the Amaury Talbot Prize for African Anthropology; 2000's The Generation of Plays: Yoruba Popular Life in Theatre won the Herskovits Award of the African Studies Association;  The Anthropology of Texts, Persons and Publics  from 2007 won the Susanne K. Langer Award of the Media Ecology Association; and 2012's Print Culture and the First Yoruba Novel won the Paul Hair Prize of the African Studies Association and the Association for the Preservation and Publication of African Historical Sources. In this interview, she tells host David Edmonds about two particular genres of Yoruba verbal arts: ifa, or divination poetry, and oríkì, translated as praise poetry. “Divination is how people govern and manage their lives,” she explains, “so this poetry is really central to how people analyze what's happening to them and take steps to make sure that things work out as they wish.” Praise poetry, “strings and strings of epithets hailing the subject's qualities,” meanwhile, “celebrates and commemorates and highlights the essential characteristics of a person or god or a family or town or an animal. Somehow it evokes the inner essence, the inner properties, and activates them, galvanizes them.” This genre, she details, has changed over the years, emphasizing wealth in the 19th century but more personal qualities and achievements today. “Changing power dynamics are revealed, not necessarily in what the verbal arts specifically say, but in the way they are formed, in the way they are transmitted, who reads them or who listens to them.” And so verbal arts matter in a social science context. “All verbal arts are produced in an economic and institutional context. You could ask, why did this new genre appear in this context, this particular moment in history. What caused people to devise this way of commenting on society and formulating ides in this particular way? It's because of the prevailing interplay of social forces.” For her work, Barber has received a number of high honors, ranging from a Yoruba chieftaincy title - she is the Iyamoye (“mother who has insights”) of Okuku – to appointment as Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 2012 and Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire earlier this year.

Hello to you listening in Bridlington, Yorkshire, England!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday.There have been some rather robust conversations of late about manifesting miracles. On the one hand you have the flat out non-believers who hold to the notion that life is an unchangeable mapped-out plan. Then there are those who get the idea of manifesting miracles but are married to their expectation of how and when and in what form the miracle should appear, as if they're dialing up a TV program. Then there's the camp I've been thinking about: the one that believes we are here to co-create with the Power we name as our God understanding that He or She asks only that we say please, thank you, and be kind to others.Practical Tip: If a miracle hasn't manifested in the time or shape you expected, drop your expectations. Instead, set your heart on the many miracles that have already arisen in your life. Find yourself a quiet place. Sit with your eyes closed and linger on the life you've been graced to live thus far repeating these words: Remember, Remember, Remember.60 Seconds is your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that. This is the place to thrive together. Come for the stories - stay for the magic.

Yorkshire is known for its turbulent weather and wildly romantic hills and dales, which influenced not only the Bronte sisters but our guest today. We have Richard Thompson, Co-Founder of Sing Gin, with me today on the program. When his father brought home a still, they were not sure what would come of it. Throwing caution to the wind, he and his family produced an award-winning gin that comes from and is tied to the Yorkshire landscape. He is here to tell us what transpired. In the words of Emily Bronte, kind of, we'll discover: “It was not the flax bending to the gin, but the gin embracing the flax.” So let's get to it. Our cocktail of the week had to be the Sing Gin Floradora: INGREDIENTS  50ml Sing Gin 20ml Fresh lime juice 25ml Raspberry syrup Ginger ale METHOD Combine the gin, lime juice, and syrup in an ice-filled cocktail shaker Shake, shake, shake Strain over cubed ice into a balloon glass.

Welcome to Over The Influence, Series 3! We're Sharon, Freddie and Ben, three normal people who decided to give up alcohol to see how our lives would change. We're not medical experts but we are expert ex-drinkers, and our podcast brings people together who are on their own alcohol-free journeys by celebrating just how wonderful life without booze can be! In this episode we chat to Adam Smith from Yorkshire, a former bar manager who hit rock bottom and decided to change his life, and is now a successful life coach. Adam is an ordinary bloke with an extraordinary story - and in this episode we do talk about how things got so bad for him that he wanted to take his own life to be free of the pain that he felt (please note that there are links to support resources below if you're affected by anything you hear in this episode). The scariest thing about Adam's story is that a series of misfortunes and tragedies lead him on a a slippery slope to the point where he felt like suicide was the only option, and we talk about how alcohol played a huge part in his deteriorating mental health at this stage in his life. But Adam is also a shining example of how things can turn around, with the right mindset and the right support - he now wants to share his story in the hope that he can inspire others who may be in a similar place to where he was.

The panel delve into this nuanced debate, reflect on the origins of its association with the North London club, how it continues to divide the fanbase and even the wider Jewish community. Plus, how the heart-warming story of a lesser-known, Leeds-mad Jewish community in Yorkshire factors into this enduring debate.

Episode Summary: I am introducing today's guest, https://www.linkedin.com/in/garyashton (Gary Ashton), the Founder of the https://www.nashvillesmls.com/about.php (Ashton Real Estate Group of RE/MAX Advantage), the number one RE/MAX team in the world, based out of Nashville, Tennessee. In this episode, I sit with Gary, born and raised in Yorkshire, the North-Eastern part of England. He delves deep into his journey before and through Real Estate, alongside memorable lessons learned during the experience. Top Takeaways: "You don't need to know everything. You need to know enough to and knowledgeable, know what you're talking about, and then make the introduction." - [Gary Ashton] "You don't need to be an expert in that field, but you need an expert in that field...you need to know enough to bridge that gap to the expert." - [Gary Ashton] "Join a team." - [Gary Ashton] Episode Highlights: [00:44] Intro [01:36] Introducing today's guest, Gary Ashton. [18:04] Moving into Real Estate with the power of the internet. [31:32] Gary's move to RE/MAX. [48:42] Gary's advice to new agents. [51:54] Outro Episode Notes: As a kid, Gary took an interest in music, particularly the drum set, and joined a band when he was older. He put his music career on hold to get an HND. Gary and his dad also ran a motel at some point. On moving to America at the age of 26, Gary and his dad set up a hotel business in Florida, which was sold through a 1031 exchange as his dad was retiring. This move triggered Gary's entry into Real Estate. After the 1031 exchange, he got his Real Estate license and invested in rental properties putting music aside as he realized he was barely average as a professional. While running the motel in the US, they were one of the first to have a website, and later Gary wanted to work on lead generation in Real Estate through websites. Gary spent time growing in his understanding and working on marketing and advertising to get leads online for Real Estate. He also learned to use pay-per-click and became number one on that platform, which contributed positively to his business. When following up leads, Gary encourages his team members not to hide their music side or other aspects of themselves from clients, as this adds another level of connection with clients, especially in the long term. After moving to Nashville.com with the number of leads available to him, it became apparent that Gary would need to create a team. Gary's move to RE/MAX was mainly because the previous site he worked was not a nationally known brand. Having the RE/MAX logo on Nashville.com gave a new level of recognition to his work. He also learned the importance of maximizing each lead by building relationships through friendly conversations to take down the walls people usually have around them, especially as they see the value in his information. This is a more efficient approach rather than discarding leads who may not seem ready to buy at that exact moment. One of the key strategies that helped Gary through his career was taking advantage of his connections to engage with interested people. Another essential method was working with people as much as possible to ensure everything was in order regarding the deal and documents. He, however, had to learn that there was no need to know everything but just enough to understand enough and bridge the gap to the expert. After Gary's team had gotten quite large and successful, he was seen as a threat at the time and got broker-released while the members of his team had the option to stay with the broker. Gary's advice to new agents: Join a team. It may not be the best of news when a team member wants to leave, but Gary ensures he offers no hindrance to the process when it comes around. Gary's team is the number one RE/MAX team in the world. Resources Mentioned: Connect: Find | THE REAL ESTATE SESSIONS At https://tresonline.com/...

Shannon's guest this week on the Bruce Lee Podcast is another amazing member of the Warrior family, Dean Jagger. Born in Yorkshire, Dean studied acting in London, later landing a role on Game of Thrones playing the character of Smalljon Umber. But Shannon came to really know and love him as Irish bare-knuckle boxing champion Dylan Leary on Warrior where Dean does an amazing job of heading up the unofficial Irish labor movement on the show. Dean brings a riveting level of realness and strength to the role while also managing to be sympathetic and engaging for audiences. While he and Andrew Koji play nemeses on Warrior, in real life, they have developed a sincere bond of friendship that goes beyond the show. Shannon got to be in South Africa on set to watch the filming of the late night slug fest between Ah Sahm and Leary and it was truly amazing with everyone around, cast, crew and extras giving all their support and energy to these two as they gave it their all until the sun was coming up over Capetown. Dean is a wonderful, fun, energetic, upbeat human being that Shannon loves hanging out with. And he and his name have some fascinating Bruce Lee origin stories too! Come listen in while Dean and Shannon talk Bruce Lee, Warrior, Family and Life and share some Wisdom on the Bruce Lee Podcast! Show notes & episodes on Brucelee.com/Podcast
