  • Where’s the green stuff in the budget? We looked everywhere and couldn’t find it. Dale remembers the time he met David Cameron. Also, it turns out you’re able to call somebody ‘Tory Scum’ - it’s actually a basic right of law. There’s some data that suggests veganism is on the decline, but Dale is pretty sure this is statistical chicanery. We talk about how rich lifestyles are driving the climate war - and what could be done to address this? The former boss of Sky News says news organisations need to do more to cover the climate crisis - what should they do? We’ve got your questions too.

  • Jimmy Carr needs no introduction and is one of the biggest names in British comedy. Jimmy has hardly been off our screens for the last two decades. He has countless shows to his name, even performing in front of the queen. But what people may not know is that Jimmy has another side to him. When he was in mid-20s, Jimmy was in a boring office job, without much joy or direction in his life. But he set himself on a journey of self-improvement. Out of nowhere, he decided to quit and start again, the rest, as they say, is history.
    Today, Jimmy shares with us the actionable lessons in how he did it and how they are relevant to YOU. Jimmy is always looking for lessons to take out of his incredible story, and I think after listening to this, you’ll definitely see that behind Jimmy’s extraordinary story lies a very ordinary person committed to trying new things, working hard, and pursuing his passion.

And what about the show bouncer? We also talk Just Stop Oil's latest protests at Wimbledon and tidal lagoons. Vegan food is getting contaminated with animal products - and we wonder how this is still even possible? The boss of Shell tells us cutting fossil fuel production is dangerous - but he would say that, wouldn't he? And Forest Green's interim Head Coach is getting some press attention too. Plus, we've got loads of your questions and Dale's answers. Send yours to [email protected].

  • This hasn’t been the greatest week for Russia President, Vladimir Putin in two decades of power in the Kremlin.

    A mutinous band of mercenaries, that he himself created, charged up towards Moscow, denouncing his war in Ukraine and seemingly meeting little resistance on the way.

    While he faced down Evgeny Prigozhin and the Wagner group, appearing to banish them to Belarus, it’s not all over for Putin.

    In this episode, Hubertus Jahn, professor of the history of Russia and the Caucasus at Cambridge University, explains how the “mafia boss” in the Kremlin has seen cracks forming in his enterprise - and explores what might be next for Russia and its leader.

  • Moving to a new country also means getting used to new customs, different products, and doing a lot of things for the very first time.

  • Josie Long visits York Cold War Bunker, one of over 1,500 bunkers and monitoring posts across the UK that were in operation during the Cold War, and the only example which still exists without alterations today.

    But perhaps the most interesting thing about the bunker are the people who worked there. Here, the Royal Observer Corps (ROC), mainly civilian volunteers, were trained to receive, record, and relay vital information on nuclear fallout in the event of a real nuclear attack on Britain.

    Josie meets English Heritage curator, Kevin Booth to find out more about the bunker’s history and its role during the Cold War.

    We hear from Grace Huxford, a senior lecturer in modern history at the University of Bristol, on the history of the Cold War and the social and political context in Britain at the time when the ROC were training in the bunker.

    Josie also meets Ann Metcalf, a member of the ROC for 27 years who worked at the bunker in York. We hear about her first-hand account of what it was like to train in the bunker, her experience of Cold War Britain, and how it felt to have such a unique and important role, should the very worst have happened.

    Speaking with Shadows is an English Heritage podcast.

    You can find out more on these stories by going to http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/speakingwithshadows or head to the English Heritage website to find out how you can visit the York Cold War Bunker.
