This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! In the 1800s, The Park Hotel in Yorkshire stood as a symbol of elegance — a seaside retreat for mill workers seeking rest and entertainment, and a favored stop for performers traveling through the region. But behind its charm and glamour, a darker story was quietly unfolding. According to investigator Andy Moore, The Park Hotel held secrets far removed from its public image. Whispered rumors suggest that hidden beneath the polished façade were rituals, symbols, and practices that had nothing to do with hospitality — and everything to do with invoking darker forces. From tales of satanic ceremonies to suggestions of sacrificial acts, the stories surrounding the hotel reach far beyond simple ghost sightings. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we peel back the hotel's historical layers and explore the unsettling claims tied to its past. What energies were awakened within those walls? Who — or what — still lingers in the shadows? And how did a seaside escape become associated with one of Yorkshire's most disturbing paranormal legends?

It's also a gentle challenge: if your parents are still around, sit down with them, ask the questions you don't know the answers to, and record the conversation if you can.A milestone episode, the final show of 2025, and an hour of pure gold from Marcus' dad.

pWotD Episode 3133: Tom Stoppard Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 240,997 views on Saturday, 29 November 2025 our article of the day is Tom Stoppard.Sir Tom Stoppard (born Tomáš Sträussler, 3 July 1937 – 29 November 2025) was a Czech and English playwright and screenwriter. He wrote for film, radio, stage, and television, finding prominence with plays. His work covered the themes of human rights, censorship, and political freedom, often delving into the deeper philosophical bases of society. Stoppard was a playwright of the National Theatre; one of the most internationally performed dramatists of his generation; and critically compared with William Shakespeare and George Bernard Shaw. He was knighted for his contribution to theatre by Queen Elizabeth II in 1997 and awarded the Order of Merit in 2000. Born in Czechoslovakia, Stoppard left as a Jewish child refugee, fleeing imminent Nazi occupation. He settled with his family in England after the war, in 1946, having spent the previous three years (1943–1946) in a boarding school in Darjeeling in the Indian Himalayas. After being educated at schools in Nottingham and Yorkshire, Stoppard became a journalist, a drama critic and then, in 1960, a playwright.Stoppard's most prominent plays include Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1966), Jumpers (1972), Travesties (1974), Night and Day (1978), The Real Thing (1982), Arcadia (1993), The Invention of Love (1997), The Coast of Utopia (2002), Rock 'n' Roll (2006) and Leopoldstadt (2020). He wrote the screenplays for Brazil (1985), Empire of the Sun (1987), The Russia House (1990), Billy Bathgate (1991), Shakespeare in Love (1998), Enigma (2001), and Anna Karenina (2012), as well as the BBC/HBO limited series Parade's End (2013). He directed the film Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1990), adapting his own 1966 play as its screenplay, with Gary Oldman and Tim Roth as the leads.Stoppard received numerous awards and honours including an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for Shakespeare In Love, three Laurence Olivier Awards, and five Tony Awards. In 2008, The Daily Telegraph ranked him number 11 in their list of the "100 most powerful people in British culture". It was announced in June 2019 that Stoppard had written a new play, Leopoldstadt, set in the Jewish community of early 20th-century Vienna. The play premiered in January 2020 at Wyndham's Theatre. The play went on to win the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play and later the 2023 Tony Award for Best Play.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:05 UTC on Sunday, 30 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Tom Stoppard on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Ruth.

Step inside one of the wildest careers in modern British cooking as we sit down with Tommy Banks, once the youngest British Michelin starred chef, Great British Menu champion, author, farmer, preservation obsessive, cricket prodigy in a past life, and the man behind both The Black Swan at Oldstead and Roots in York. From hand milking cows on a tiny family farm to being crowned TripAdvisor's number one restaurant in the world, Tommy charts the long, strange path that took him from near-empty dining rooms to global recognition. Along the way we hear about the early days of The Black Swan, complete with RAF chefs who bullied teenage Tommy at the sink, and his twenty-something imposter syndrome phase where he cheerfully admits to cooking straight out of Phil Howard's cookbook before finding his own style.The stories in this episode are the stuff of modern kitchen folklore. Tommy talks us through the heartbreaking illness at eighteen that ended his cricket dreams, the fierce work ethic that followed, and the moment Kenny Atkinson sat down for dinner and told him he had to get on Great British Menu. We hear about the ferocious creativity behind his fermentation rooms, the Douglas fir desserts, the legendary crab and beetroot dish, and the umeboshi-style strawberries now copied across the country. There is also the infamous pie-van heist that turned into a national news frenzy with Tommy fielding calls from Radio 1 through Radio 5 on the same day as he begged thieves to at least give the five thousand pies to charity. And of course the blackmail era of two-year waiting lists after The Black Swan went viral.Tommy also gives us a hilarious and honest tour of life running an expanding Yorkshire empire. From the diners flying in by helicopter to tell him his restaurant is not the best in the world, to the email from an industry “expert” advising him to shut down the General Tarleton immediately, to his strict refusal to cook vegan food because he cannot grow lemons on the farm, the stories land one after another. We dig into Yorkshire pub culture, his dream blowout dinners, his disdain for truffle, and the perfection of a proper Sunday roast at The Abbey Inn. This is Tommy Banks in full flow: sharp, grounded, funny, straight talking, wildly inventive, and endlessly proud of his little corner of Yorkshire.

Aston Villa went to Elland Road expecting a fight, and that is exactly what they got. Leeds were physical and up for it, and the game swung on two long VAR checks that are worth discussion. Unai Emery made the decisive halftime changes, flipping the pace and shape of the attack with Donyell Marlen and Ian Maatsen. Rogers took over from there - a sharp finish for the first, and a cultured free kick for the second, becoming the first Villa player to score twice at Elland Road since Gareth Southgate in 2000.It was not pretty. It was not controlled. It was not Emery-ball in its purest form. But it was the kind of away win that top-four teams collect without apology. Villa stood up to the size, the chaos, the set pieces, and the atmosphere - and came out with exactly what matters: three points and a foothold in the Champions League chase.In this new-look post match episode, 'The MOMS Post-mortem' we break down the VAR incidents, the tactical switch that changed the game, Watkins' substitution, Rogers' growing influence, and Emery's quietly confident mood as Villa climb back into the top four.Spotify Links to Opera TracksMy Old Man Said OperaHolte Enders in the Sky - Traditional Verse AriaAlso available on all music streaming platforms.GET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Lessons I Learned in Law

Season 8 of Lessons I Learned in Law continues in partnership with Wordsmith AI, the legal-AI platform built for in-house teams.This week, Scott is joined by Andy Cooke, Chief Legal Officer at Perk, the global business travel and expenses platform. Andy shares a grounded, refreshingly practical look at what it means to build and lead an in-house legal team inside a high-growth tech company.Drawing on his experience at Perk and his earlier career in private practice and in-house, Andy unpacks three lessons centred on product thinking, influence and culture. He explains why lawyers should view their work as a product used by internal customers and why simplicity, clarity and usability matter more than long memos. Andy also reflects on the real source of influence inside a business: not job titles or hierarchy, but delivering outcomes that genuinely move the needle.His final lesson focuses on culture as a strategic asset. From hiring curious, low-ego team members to designing processes that scale, Andy shows how the right cultural foundations help legal teams operate as enablers—not gatekeepers—in fast-moving organisations.Away from work, Andy talks about the joy of being back home in Yorkshire after time abroad, and how grounding himself in family, community and routine keeps him balanced. This episode is proudly sponsored by Wordsmith AI — visit https://wordsmith.ai to learn more.About Heriot Brown: Heriot Brown is a leading global recruitment business specialising in the in-house legal market.

The Bizarre Death of Sir Marmaduke Constable   On this day in Tudor history, 20th November 1518, a seasoned soldier and loyal servant of four Tudor kings met one of the strangest deaths ever recorded: Sir Marmaduke Constable supposedly died after swallowing a frog or toad that had slipped into his drinking water. Yes… you read that correctly. I'm historian and author Claire Ridgway, and in today's video I reveal the incredible life, and legendary death, of this remarkable Tudor knight. Before the bizarre tale that made him a Yorkshire legend, Marmaduke Constable had lived a life of true service and courage. He fought in France under Edward IV, earned a knighthood at Berwick, served as Knight of the Body to both Richard III and Henry VII, and commanded the left wing of the English army at Flodden, one of the great military victories of Henry VIII's reign. But it was the story of his extraordinary death that captured imaginations for centuries. Local tradition claimed that a frog or toad lodged itself near his heart and killed him, and his tomb at St Oswald's Church, Flamborough, even includes a carving said to show the creature believed to have ended his life. Was this legend rooted in truth? A misunderstanding? Or just a macabre Tudor tale that grew in the telling? In this episode, you'll discover: • Marmaduke's rise through the great northern families • His service under four monarchs • His command at the Battle of Flodden • Why Henry VIII personally thanked him • How a strange rumour turned into a centuries-old legend • The real history behind “the knight who died of a toad” Join me as we dive into bravery, loyalty, and one unforgettable Tudor mystery.

Like many, that affected his mental wellbeing and he turned to social media to make people happy by sharing his creative Indian recipes. He quickly became an internet sensation attracting over half a million followers. What you see is what you get with Bobby. A genuine bloke just trying to do his best.

David Hockney is arguably Britain's most loved living artist. He's known as a colourful character, not only because of his vibrant, colour rich paintings of Californian landscapes, glittering blue pools, and thick Yorkshire woodlands, but also his own carefully curated image from the 1960s- bright blond hair and oversized thick black round glasses. He was born in Bradford in 1937, and knew by the age of 10 he wanted to be an artist. He studied at the Royal College of Art, and by his mid 20s he was key player in London's bohemian pop-art scene. He then moved to LA in pursuit of sunshine and inspiration. He delights in using new technology to create; from the polaroid, to the fax machine, and his iPad. Now, more than 60 years into his career, aged 88, David Hockney is not slowing down. His image has recently been depicted by drones in a light-show in the skies above Bradford, in a colourful tribute to the city's most famous son. Becky Milligan speaks to his muse, the textile designer Celia Birtwell, art historian Marco Livingstone, dancer and contemporary Wayne Sleep and art critic Waldemar Januszczak.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 14th of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Book of Exodus 34:29: ”…Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him.” Moses had just come down from Mt Sinai with the Ten Commandments. He had spent 40 days and 40 nights in the presence of our Heavenly Father, and his face was shining like the sun. Isn't that amazing? We go to Matthew 17:2: ”…and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.” That was Jesus, our Saviour, when He went up the Mount of Transfiguration. He shone like the sun when He met with His Heavenly Father. Folks, that can happen to you and me as well if we spend time with the Lord Jesus Christ, then we start to become more and more like Him. Moses had to wear a veil over his face. The people were too scared to come near Him because of the presence of God in His life. Surely that's how we should be as well. People should want to come and be with us because they see the love and the presence of God in our lives, not so much by the way we look, but rather by the way we act and live. You know, little children are very good judges of people who know God. They are drawn to people like that. I've seen them. They'll hang around and stand around and be close to people who spend time with God.I want to tell you about a man that made a big impression in my life when I was a new Christian, many many years ago. His name was Reverend Tom Parker and his dear wife, Gladys. They came all the way from Yorkshire, England and they became the ministers of the little church here in Greytown, one of the dearest men I think I've met in my life. He had a hard life. He was in the Second World War, serving on submarines. He never complained and was always gentle. He wasn't the greatest preacher that I've ever heard but he gave off the presence of Jesus wherever he went. I used to love just sitting, listening to him talking and he would get so caught up in the Holy Spirit, that you battled to follow him when he was preaching, but I want to tell you, he gave the presence of God wherever he went.You and I today as well, people just want the love of God and they are desperate to meet with the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.Today, let's be Jesus to them. God bless you and goodbye.

RHLSTP #585 - What If They're Chinese? - Stand 3 has been hit by protestors, but amazingly it's not for Rich (though maybe after this show it will be) - should people be trying to get Edinburgh shows cancelled, often for very tangential reasons? Rich couldn't possibly comment. But does anyway. His guest is the reigning Edinburgh Award Best Newcome Joe Kent-Walters aka Frankie Monroe. They chat about how his show seems to build on previous comedians work to create something useful, how Frankie ended up with Sudocrem on his face and what the consequences of that might be, whether Rich was bored during Joe's show (he wasn't - it was very exciting to witness), meeting Bobby Davro, why a lackadaisical attitude towards ventriloquism is the best, how a character on stage has a confidence that the performer might not have in real life, the Yorkshire mafia and what happens if you leave your Gammon hammer on the train.See Joe as Frankie Monroe on tour https://frankiemonroelive.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.

In 1318, a Yorkshire nun named Joan of Leeds faked her own death to escape convent life, crafting a dummy, staging a burial, and vanishing into the wider world. Her story survives only in a scathing letter from Archbishop William Melton, recently translated by historians at the University of York. This minicast explores Joan's daring plan, why medieval women entered convents, and what her brief rebellion reveals about life, faith, and freedom in 14th-century England. Hosted on Acast.
