Our book this week is the classic love, revenge, and ghost story, Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, and my guest this week is Carrie Pruett.Carrie is a power user of the Henrico County, Virginia library. She loves books, movies, and also loves podcasts about books and movies. She frequently appears on the podcast 'Worst Bestsellers' to talk about teenage vampires and horse girls. When she was 13, she accidentally read 'Wuthering Heights' because her mom told her it was 'like Pride and Prejudice.' (It wasn't). Ever since then, she has enjoyed stories about terrible people who make bad decisions, especially if they do it in English country houses.Our drink this week is a Sam Smith beer from Yorkshire England, near the Moores where Wuthering Heights is set. Sam Smith is Yorkshire's oldest brewery, it even predates the Brontë sisters and was is a great drink to enjoy while reading this dark, brooding ghost storyIf you enjoy the show, please either head over to where you get your podcast and give me 5 stars and a review, or tell two people about it this week.

Episode 338: Since 2001, Debra Ross has been publisher of KidsOutAndAbout.com, America's online resource for families who want to know about all of the opportunities for kids in their local area, and (since 2016) of BeyondTheNest.com, for grownups who want to know about arts, culture, and recreation where they live. This web network has regional sites in 45 cities in the US and Canada, with (as of Feb 2023) 15 million visitors per year (85% parents, 15% grandparents, 82% women) and 750,000 recipients of a free weekly e-newsletter telling recipients what's happening locally for kids, teens, and families. Debra's expertise is in community visibility and cheerleading, data analytics, and information resource management. She is Co-Chair of the American Astronomical Society's Solar Eclipse Task Force for the 2023 annular and 2024 solar eclipses and Chair of the Rochester Eclipse Task Force 2024. Named after the iconic Angela Davis, Angela Speck likes bright colors, is a nerd at heart, and has wanted to be an astronaut since she was five years old. Originally from Yorkshire (England), she went to college in London, where she was able to pursue her childhood dreams by majoring in astrophysics. After a brief stint as an r&d technician in a Lancashire company run by crazy new-age hippies, she returned to London and completed a Ph.D. in astronomy. After a postdoc at the University of Illinois and 17 years on the faculty at the University of Missouri, she is now the Chair of the Physics & Astronomy Department at UT San Antonio. She has also been the co-chair of a national task force on solar eclipses since 2014. Throughout her career, she has pursued research and teaching of astrophysics and continues to share her passion for all things extra-terrestrial. On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Angela Speck and Debra Ross about how they are preparing for the 2024 solar eclipse. We discuss how destination marketers can share information about eclipse events locally and nationally, and we cover lessons learned from the 2017 eclipse visitor data. What You Will Learn in this Episode: How the upcoming eclipse can help create a sense of unity and connection within a community Key marketing lessons learned from the 2017 eclipse and what DMOs can do differently in 2024 What communities can do to maximize the experience for locals and visitors The importance of targeted outreach and educating people about the significance of the eclipse path, which is much more populated in 2024 than it was in 2017 How DMOs can leverage pre-existing stories and experiences to communicate the value of participating in the 2024 eclipse Sharing Your Community Values During her interview on the Destination on the Left podcast, Debra Ross shared a powerful anecdote about the town of Kingswood and their approach to the solar eclipse. With a strong sense of community, the town sent teenagers on bicycles to distribute eclipse glasses to residents and visitors, ensuring everyone could safely experience the event. This initiative showcased their commitment to inclusivity and creating a shared experience. This highlighted how communities can demonstrate their true essence and foster a stronger sense of unity through how they present themselves to visitors. Debra is looking to convey a similar sense of unity and connection within her own community and has since been involved in helping other communities make their messaging fun, clever, and authentic in preparation for the 2024 eclipse. Telling the Eclipse Story in 2024 On the podcast, Angela emphasizes the importance of targeted outreach and educating people about the significance of the eclipse path. So many people missed out on being within the path of the 2017 eclipse, and the upcoming 2024 eclipse is already a hot topic of conversation amongst the general population, not just the scientific community. To help engage as many people as possible, DMOs should build upon pre-existing stories and experiences. By reinforcing the message that they are not starting from scratch, marketers can more effectively communicate the importance of being within the eclipse path and ensure that people understand the value of participating in the 2024 eclipse.

A brand new Rolex Oyster Perpetual timepiece costs around $6,600 and in 1996, this Rolex model became the “star piece of evidence” in a murder that happened on the English Channel. It solved the killing of Canadian Ronald Platt, and led to the arrest and conviction of another Canadian named Albert Walker aka “The Rolex Killer.”
You read the title right - this weeks story is about the abduction of Elizabeth Smart. But, before we get to her story we have the story of another girl. A girl named Anne who loved her home so much she never wanted to part with it, even in death. The Burton Agnes Hall in Yorkshire England was built by Annes father, and when Anne passed away her final request was to have her head be buried in the home. Well, since that was a little weird, her family didn't do that and instead buried her fully intact in the church graveyard. But Anne wouldn't let her wishes go unfulfilled. In fact, she would scream her head off until they eventually moved her head back into the house. Don't worry though - that's not the end of the story. Tune in to hear Sarah tell the rest of the saga of the "Screaming Skull of Burton Agnes Hall" And to finish the episode Stephanie is bringing us the 1990's true crime abduction case of Elizabeth Smart. Elizabeth was taken from her bed in the middle of the night at knifepoint, and the only witness was her sister lying in the bed next to her. It seemed like Elizabeth would never make it back home - but she does. And how she does is one hell of a story.

Creating a sustainable greenhouse business in the 90's. In This Podcast: In the first of five special daily episodes, we hear from Puja and Udgar Parsons, the founders of Growing Spaces. They give us a peek inside their geodesic dome greenhouse kits, detailing how they work and describing the features that improve upon a traditional greenhouse. Udgar explains how the dome's shape is an extension of his permaculture principles and love of nature, and Puja inspires us with stories of their determination to share the joy of healthy, garden-fresh vegetables year-round with as many people as possible, despite the growing pains they experienced as entrepreneurs. Don't miss an episode! visit UrbanFarm.Org/blog/podcast Udgar Parsons was born and bred in Yorkshire England in the early forties while Puja Parsons was raised in Burbank, California. Udgar left a career in dentistry and orthodontics to raise a family on a farm in the North of Scotland. There, he learned to live off the grid and lead a healthy lifestyle. Puja's degrees are in Psychology, Philosophy, and Fine Arts, and that led her to create several non-profits for the promotion of holistic health and spiritual growth. After traveling the world together and participating in several intentional communities, Udgar decided to become an American citizen and they moved to Colorado. There, in the Roaring Fork Valley, he was inspired by the vision of Buckminster Fuller and John Denver at Windstar, where he experimented with Bucky's Biodomes. In 1989 they founded their own company called Growing Spaces, after developing Udgar's own greenhouse model called the Growing Dome. Puja held that businesses could offer solutions for environmental degradation and promote nutrition and natural medicine based on fresh food and organic gardening for clients and a socially responsible business culture. Together they grew the company as social entrepreneurs for 29 years before passing it on to Liz and Lem Tingley in 2018.

In 1957, the same year the Soviets launched Sputnik, British authorities, media, and citizenry had their attention drawn back down to Earth as they attempted to unravel the mystery of a flying saucer said to have been found laying in a moor. It was dismantled, studied, and opinions were divided between its having come from space and its having been manufactured right here on Earth. Over time, the saucer went missing, but the mystery as to its origin remained. Then, in 2018, pieces of the saucer and its mysterious contents were found in the archives of the Science Museum in London.The case was first reported in the December 9, 1957 Yorkshire Post in an article headlined “Mystery Object Found on Scarborough Moors” with the sub-headline “Has Unusual Hieroglyphics.” It was written about in detail in the March-April 1958 issue of Flying Saucer Review.According to the Flying Saucer Review article headlined “The Silpho Moor Mystery,” a man “who writes under the pen name Antony Avendel” had examined an object discovered lying in Silpho Moor near Scarborough. The object is described as being shaped like a top, weighing 35 pounds, having a diameter of 18 inches, and having hieroglyphics on its outside. It was made of a double skin of 3/16” copper. A “burnt powdery substance” was found inside along with a copper book rolled up and inserted into a coil of copper tubing. The book was made of 17 copper sheets containing over 2000 words “engraved in phonetic-type symbols.”Read more →

Peter Sutcliffe has died. In the late 1970's through 1980 he was the Yorkshire Ripper - killing 13 women and attempting to murder 7 more. And taunting police to catch him. Or so it seemed. The place was Yorkshire England - in towns called Bradford, Leeds, Sheffield.Dana Lewis was a young Toronto, Canada crime reporter, who travelled to England to cover the murders. And this is his original story which ended with the news Sutcliffe had just been caught. And now he reports Sutcliffe dead in prison from Covid 19.
80 year old Pete Gardner is from Barnoldswick in Yorkshire England, a Yorkshireman through and through! Pete had his challenges throughout his life and found that the strict upbringing and expectations of him from his father in particular, made for a tempestuous relationship in his younger years the effect of which made Pete a rather aggressive person using his natural strength to deal with some people that he felt were confronting him. Pete was a very industrious worker in all he took on, eventually investing in wagons/lorries/trucks and setting up his own successful transport company where he employed several drivers and mechanics. During the 50's and 60's he became enamoured by the music scene and quickly learned to play guitar to compliment his already strong voice particularly suited to country music but not limited to this. Music had a theraputic effect on Pete, he no longer was looking for a fight and channelled his energies into his music, and even song writing. See his songs on facebook. https://www.facebook.com/Peter-Gardner-Music-page-917768181625253/ Once Pete had decided he had had enough of the transport business , he successfully sold the business and decided to retire, following a 3 month spell travelling in America, he started to visit Austria in 1980 and found he could easily get work as a solo performer. His chosen base was a town named Mittersill where he had regular engagements in both summer, and winter seasons returning on an annual basis until recent years. The town of Mittersill had become a town proper some 10 years ago, Pete promptly wrote a song about this called ' Mittersill Forever' https://youtu.be/oe9-AjxNeD4 which became a minor hit on the internet and can still be found on facebook and youtube as we speak. Although dogged with occasional ailments and serious health problems in the past, Pete is remarkably energetic and still has no problem jumping into his car and heading for Scotland to visit friends,but in particular, to Austria where he has made many friends over the years. Some 15 years ago or so, as a Mittersill resident since 2002, I was introduced to Pete by our mutual friend Eric Pletzer proprietor of Mittersill's Konditerei Pletzer www.konditoreipletzer.at , Eric knew I was a keen musician and generally a creative and sometimes crazy tourism guy, Pete and I hit it off reasonably well, we didnt just have a passion for music, but mostly, we loved that great British humour! My working role in Austria has always been in the travel and tourism side of things. Last but not least, apart from his strong Yorkshire accent, Pete is a constant joke teller, any subject you care to mention, he'll make you laugh, this as well as his music making has become his trait, he has well and truly left the aggression behind, at least I think he has? All the best to you Pete! Bernie Audio recorded in Mittersill Austria on the 16th, 17th & 18th September 2020.

ST#002 - I have another storytime for you! In case you have no idea what I am talking about, a few weeks ago I released a bonus podcast where I read a story. Just a little bedtime story. I had had some requests to do so, which amused me, so I recorded one. It was really well received. I was so shocked by that! I am glad so many liked it and honestly, I really enjoyed it too. So, I have decided that I will release a bedtime story for you every month or so. And since it is the first of the month today. Here is a story that I didn’t discover until I had my own children. And I love this one!It was written by James Harriot who was a veterinarian in Yorkshire England about 75 years ago. He has a collection of stories of things that actually happened in his practice. So enjoy Oscar, Cat About Town.
Before we go, I’d just like to take a moment to say a word about perspective. Ben Virgo on the Christian Heritage Tour gave me a perspective of London I simply never would have had if I hadn’t gone on that tour. It wasn’t all new information to me, I knew some of it, but it sure was different seeing it, matching places to events and people. I hope you’ve gotten a bit of that tour in the past few minutes and maybe had your perspective adjusted a bit too.Many years ago I had a similar perspective-changing Tour given by Ray Bakke in Chicago. I was living in the city at the time, but just a few hours with Ray changed what I saw every day. Really? The street means that much and that happened there? Wow.When you get next to experts your perspective is likely to get threatened. If they really know their stuff, like Ben knows his stuff, you will see things differently, maybe hear things differently, and perhaps even feel things differently. When the plaque on the old building you walk by says, “Within a few feet of this place John Rogers, John Bradford, John Philpot and other servants of God suffered death by fire for the faith of Christ 1555, 1556, 1557” it gives one reason to pause. “Just tell me you don’t believe something and I won’t burn you to death.” What do you believe in strongly enough not to give in to that?Yet almost invariably with perspective growth, comes nuance. Nuance is very underrated. Life is so much easier with black and white perspectives. Good-Bad. Righteous. Sinner.Surely I may be wrong, but I suspect some of our propensity to wanting things that way is because it is easier. This king is good. That queen was bad. Royalty is all bad. Presbyterians are good. Catholics are bad. Churches are filled with hypocrites. You get the point. Or do you? Life, people, and churches aren’t easy to put in a box with “All” connected very successfully. It’s a mixed bag. We are a mixed bag. Churches are a mixed bag. Add time to the equation and it gets even messier. Someone who was really bad can end up being really good and someone really good can end up being a scoundrel.You know how I can prove that. Look in the mirror. See that person. All good? Nope. All bad? Nope. We need a lot more nuance.I came not to call the righteous, but sinners. Nuance. You bet. And that’s what we mean by AND. Leonard Ravenhill from Leeds in Yorkshire England once said:"Jesus did not come into the world to make bad men good. He came into the world to make dead men live!” Now that’s nuance and that is Worth a Thought.churchhurtsand.org

In the world there are certain areas that have large amounts of strange activity, creature reports, UFO and Paranormal events. We discuss if it is the area itself that emits this phenomena or is it an attractant of some kind.From the Sedona Desert to the Cliffs of Yorkshire England. These areas of high energy are often described as vortexes or portals.
Please join me as I speak with Paul Sinclair, Investigator and collector of UFO, ILF and Animal Mutilations reports. Paul has journaled his experiences at RAF Bempton in Yorkshire England. We also discuss many of the reports both myself and Paul are sent on a weekly basis from all across the world.
This week, in Mexborough, South Yorkshire, England, a troubled young man finds his idols, when he reads books about serial killers like Jack The Ripper, and The Yorkshire Ripper. He tells everyone who will listen about his plans to match their deeds & infamy. Will he accomplish his goals, or be caught before he can make himself a legend? Along the way, we find out that England is really, really old, that announcing your intentions to be a murderer may not be the best idea, and that you should only idolize killers who haven't been caught!!

Matt Duckworth is a former professional Rugby player from England. Matt played for the Castleford Tigers Rugby Club in Yorkshire England, but his career was derailed by an injury sustained off the field. While driving back from spending time with friends on a week off from training with the Castleford Tigers, Matt's car was struck in the side by another vehicle on the M6 Toll Road. The accident resulted in Matt breaking his C3, C4 and C& vertebrae in his neck. The collision forced Matt's car to roll over on it's side, and he found himself stuck in his seatbelt. His passenger and best friend, James "Peg" came out of the crash relatively unscathed and eventually helped Matt out of the car when he began to experience severe neck pain. After this, Matt was transported by helicopter to the hospital. Although Matt was lucky enough the avoid paralysis, he suffered a stroke while recovering in the hospital. Matt developed hematoma's in his brain after the crash, which ultimately led to the stroke (this part was unfortunately not discussed in the interview). The stroke effected Matt's ability to walk and balance, which are two essential attributes that all rugby players rely on. This is what Matt's car looked like after the crash. Someone was definintely looking out for him up there... Matt was 19 years old at the time of the crash and was at the peak of his physical athleticism. In professional sports, all the athletes get paid, but it isn't until they reach negotiations for their second contract that they get "paid-paid." Just before the crash, Matt was getting ready to sign a new contract which would have led to an increase in his salary. This only added fuel to the fire that had ignited with the onset of depression and attributes of bi-polar after realizing how much he had lost due to his injuries. Doctors advised Matt in the hospital that he would never play rugby again, but he always maintained the thought he would come back. He received a tremendous amount of support from his club, teammates, coaches and fans, which helped raise his spirits throughout the recovery process. It wasn't until making his way back into the gym that Matt realized his situation was more serious than he originally thought. He had difficulty even lifting a 15 pound dumbbell. The Castleford Tigers continued to pay Matt throughout his recovery and provided physiotherapy which extended Matt's rugby career an additional two years. Matt found CrossFit as a great outlet after his rugby career ended. I recommend any athlete struggling in their transition to life after sports to give CrossFit a try, but Matt and I both emphasize the importance of leaving your ego at the door before you walk in the gym. Matt and I met at CrossFit Motown in Morristown, NJ. After Matt's Rugby career, he moved to the United States and began working for USA Sports Group, which is a company that offers sports programs for kids. Matt relishes in the opportunity to be a positive influence in his athletes lives and encourages all coaches to care about not just the athletes, but the whole person outside of their sport. During our discussion Matt and I discuss the differences between sports culture in the U.S. and in England. What I found interesting is that Matt feels the U.S. sports culture focuses too much on safety and what can go wrong instead of just letting the kids play. I'm sure this podcast is a contributor to that cultural difference, but my main goal is the minimize the risk to maximize the fun. We also discussed some of the interesting characteristics of Rugby that could potentially benefit the game of American football. Specifically the idea of Rugby "Sevens" (explained in the video above) intrigued me because of this NPR article Big Rule Changes Could Make Youth Football Games A Whole Lot Smaller, which was posted by my friends at Mind of The Athlete. In rugby sevens, each side as 7 players on the field instead of 13 for rugby league rules and 15 in rugby union rules (the differences between rugby league and rugby union are explained in the video below). Rugby league, which Matt played, is more similar to American football. The article highlights USA Football's (The governing body of American football) proposal of playing with anywhere from 6-9 players per side instead of the traditional 11. Less, players on the field, more room to avoid collisions, sound good to me! However, they also propose shorter fields in this format, which in my opinion defeats the purpose of reducing the number of players on the field (future podcast episode to come on this topic). I am super stoked about the idea of the rugby sevens potential to influence the game of American football. However, it made me think that it may cause a barrier to entry for some of the bigger fellas out there who could use the exercise and maybe jumpstart an active lifestyle. But where do you draw the line? This topic also came up in our conversation because tackling has recently been banned in schools for rugby matches. Matt does not think this is good for safety or for the sport of rugby. He feels if you take tackling out of the sport, it is no longer rugby, and he is right. You can't take hitting out of football because then it wouldn't be football anymore. However, I still believe attacking the macho culture of these sports is the best plan of attack to minimize both short-term and long-term risk for athletes. There are so many things I wished I asked Matt looking back. We will have to do a follow up interview in the near future! WHERE CAN YOU FOLLOW MATT DUCKWORTH?

ShEvo vs. The First World | A Skeptical Look at Western Culture
Full Show Script [CLIP: starvation] EVO: There are lots of ways to travel. And I don't just mean by air, rail, or boat. I mean the intent of the travel. Ours is based on opportunity. Which means we go where the opportunity takes us. SHE: Currently, we're housesitting. Typically, this isn't what most of you think of when you think of travel. We go where the housesitting assignments are. This can be limiting as wintering in Jamaica isn't always -- and certainly wasn't -- an option. EVO: But housesitting almost eliminates the "I-don't-know-where-do-you-want-to-go?" discussions that make vacation planning a pain. For us, it's lead to some amazing opportunities. But it's still weird, so we find ourselves explaining how it lets us travel around the world. Here's a quick conversation we had over lunch with Katherine Inskip, an astrophysicist we met from the University of Sheffield. And thanks for lunch, Kath! [CLIP: wharncliffe side] EVO: Which brings us, a travel blogger and a travel photographer, to Warncliffe Side, a suburb -- ish -- of Sheffield, up in Yorkshire England. There's a very good reason you won't find this area on TripAdvisors Top 10 Places to Visit in Early Spring: [CLIP: climbing] SHE: Sheffield's claim to fame is stainless steel, invented here in 1912. But the world knows Sheffield not only from industry, but from infamy. [CLIP: hillsborough incident] EVO: History aside, opportunity keeps intersecting us with current events. We were in Paris just after the Charlie Hebdo attack. We were literally blocks away from the synagog shooting as it happened in Copenhagen. And most recently, opportunity placed us in Sheffield the same time the Queen was in town. I know it's just confirmation bias, but it's damned odd. SHE: But what's not odd is our ability to meet locals and make new friends along the way. Most often, this is done over a beer... or two. [CLIP: hakespeare] EVO: Don't let the quiet audio fool you. Shakespeare started out as a quiet pub, because it was mid afternoon when we got there. It didn't take long for the crowd to show up as the day progressed. SHE: We were getting hungry by then. We'd been drinking with these two college students, and they offered to take us across to town to get some food... and some more beer. Rutland Arms, here we come! [CLIP: students] SHE: Kit (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100007170315113) turned out to be excellent guides. We had a great time with them. Actually, everyone we've met in Sheffield has been warm and friendly. Not so much the weather, but it Is spring in England. EVO: Cheers from Sheffield!

CLUB KERRY NYC: Vocal Dance & Electronic - DJ Kerry John Poynter
"When I'm back on the dance floor I'm religious." - Gravitonas. Full of hot beats guaranteed to take you to your own personal EDM temple. "...find a new calling to God." May become one of my fave sets of this year. Enjoy! Track List (57:13): Stone Cold (Beltek Remix) - Alan Connor: My fave tune on this set. Yorkshire (England) native, best known for his tracks "I Love the Sunshine" and "Sun Went Down", returns with a progressive house stomper thanks again to Beltek. "Have you ever shared a drop of blood, Are you human or is that to much to ask for, I really want to know is there something underneath the roof, Is your heart beating fast enough? Your stone cold!" Alive (Mikael Weermets & Johan Wedel Remix) - Markus Binapfl & Erick Morillo Feat. Fiora Cutler: "First you let loose and let the rhythm take you away.... let it lift you up high. I feel alive!" 1000 Islands (Triarchy Edit) - Pendulum vs Rank 1 vs Nic Chagall vs Wippenberg: The original Pendulum track first appeared on my DJ set Heaven about two months ago.This mash up is just as tasty. "What are you waiting for as we go towards the light?" Kickstarts (Wideboys Extended Remix) - Example: "Look into your eyes imagine life with out ya'. Love kickstarts again." The original is perhaps the 2nd biggest tune for Example but this remix by Wideboys is irresistible. Religious (Dada Life Remix) - Gravitonas: "I used to be hollow, Then you came along, Now i kneel to Apollo." Second fave tune. I Will Find You (Outburst Vocal Mix) - Mark Sherry feat. Sharone: "Hope is your survival, no matter where you go I will find you, In a place of no frontier... If it takes a thousand years." Third fave tune. Soaring vocals and a driving trance beat that is just out of this frakin' world! Frozen Umbrella (Henrik B vs. DjRoman Bootleg Remix) - Madonna vs Ingrosso: "Let all the hurt inside of you die, You hold the key." One of the top 25 most powerful women in the last century (recent Time Magazine) vs 1/3 of Swedish House Mafia. Rumor is Ingrosso and Madonna will record together on her next album. I quiver in anticipation. This bootleg is amazing. I'm In Love (Dave Martin, Hamvai PG & Roberto Winny Remix) - Compact Disco: "But she didn't give me time enough to pray, I've a love, I hope, will see the light of day, I'm in love..." Survive (Club Mix) - Laurent Wolf feat. Andrew Roachford: "People surviving people. Gotta find a good way to stand up for brother. Why are we just waiting in vain, why are we so much in pain, survive." Hello (Club Edit) - Martin Solveig feat. Dragonette: "I could stick around, get along with you, doesn't mean that I'm really into you. Yeah I think you're cute, but I really think that you should know. I just came to say hello." Leave It All Behind (Chad Jack Alternate Mix) - Jason Walker: "And I won't be held back by should's or could have been's Oh no, Oh no. I had to leave it behind. And it's a fact that I'm back and I'm feeling better than I felt before." Hot Mess (12" mix) - Chromeo feat. Elly Jackson from La Roux: "Your a hot mess! Because love wasn't meant to complain." Disco robot love song. LOL! Another fave on this set.
