My husband, the 8th Earl of Carnarvon, and I have the enormous privilege and pleasure of living in, and taking care of, my husband’s family home, Highclere Castle, which is better known to many people as the setting for the popular television programme “Downton Abbey”. Thanks to this series, our home has, over the last few years, become one of the most well-known and iconic houses in the world.

Famous faces take their best mate, their mum, their neighbour (whoever they want) for an afternoon at a favourite museum or gallery. As well as getting a peek behind the scenes, seeing what makes a museum tick, it's also the starting point for some great conversations about life, the universe and everything. As well as a chance to eat lots of cake in the cafe.
Meet Me at the Museum is published by Art Fund, the UK’s national charity for art, which raises money for museums and galleries through the National Art Pass – a neat little card that gets you free or reduced-price entry to hundreds of great cultural venues and exhibitions around the country. The podcast is produced by Whistledown.

You have experienced it on an empty street at night, on a crowded bus, at work, in worship centers, lecture halls, or even at parties. You felt it when you doubted yourself; when you stopped yourself from taking that walk at night; when you feared the force of your own desire, obsessed about how you look, or let the fear of financial death trap you in a bad relationship. This is the Female Fear Factory.
Female Fear Factory: The Podcast is inspired by the ground-breaking book, Female Fear Factory: Unravelling Patriarchy’s Cultures of Violence by award-winning author and renowned feminist scholar, Professor Pumla Dineo Gqola. The Female Fear Factory speaks to the different ways in which the patriarchy produces fear in people socialised as female globally. Gathering first-hand stories about females’ experience of fear, this podcast highlights the reality of how fear is nurtured within them, how it has shaped their lives, and how they are breaking free from it. For this podcast series, we have put together a line-up of diverse personalities, professions, and nationalities to represent the myriad of experiences across the globe. We hear from the author herself, Pumla Dineo Gqola, Chitra Nagarajan, Natalia Molebatsi and more.
Join us as we go from South Africa to Sri Lanka, India to Iran and learn the many ways that the patriarchal fear factory manifests across culture, generation, religion, and location.

For twenty-five years Kevin Boniface has been writing succinct descriptions of events and incidents that have taken place whilst out and about on his postal round, his daily route taking him from the main sorting office to the streets and outlying neighbourhoods above the town. In these commentaries and records nothing seems to be typical—engaged and disconnected conversations, the observed and the overheard—the everyday activity of life on the move.

Join travel writer Daniel Stables and professional boozehound Charlie Duckworth on a journey through the worlds of food, alcohol, and world culture, examining the strange things we do in our search for meaning through food and drink.
In Buddhist and Hindu lore, hungry ghosts are lost souls who stalk the earth seeking in vain to sate their swollen appetites. In the wheel of death and rebirth, the hungry ghosts occupy a lower realm than humans. We think that flatters us.
We are all hungry ghosts. These are the lengths that we go to.
