Running is not just a sport. It reconnects us to our bodies and the places in which we live, breaking down our increasingly structured and demanding lives. It allows us to feel the world beneath our feet, lifts the spirit, allows our minds out to play and helps us to slip away from the demands of the modern world. When Vybarr Cregan-Reid set out to discover why running meant so much to so many, he began a journey which would take him out to tread London’s cobbled streets, climbing to sites that have seen a millennium of hangings, and down the crumbling alleyways of Ruskin's Venice.

At six years old, Terry was told by his headteacher that he would never amount to anything. He spent the rest of his life proving that teacher wrong. At 66, Terry had lived a life full of achievements: becoming one of the UK's best-selling writers, winning the Carnegie Medal and being awarded a knighthood for services to literature. Following his untimely death from Alzheimer's disease, the mantle of completing Terry's memoir was passed to Rob Wilkins, his former assistant, friend and now head of the author's literary estate.

Every journey has its stories. Beginning with Enid Blyton and childhood in the Isle of Purbeck, Peter Fiennes embarks on a unique exploration of Britain.

And has it been for better, or worse? Are we trapped in the past?

They say the devil is in the details. The Footnotes is Author Dave’s audio‑only case‑file series on the stories too strange for the front page and too disturbing to ignore. Recent unsolved mysteries, eerie discoveries, and high‑strangeness true crime—told from verified reporting, with one chilling detail you won’t forget. Listener discretion advised.

Footnotes is hosted by Jacob Taylor, a management consultant and organizational researcher based in Boulder, CO, who examines complex, novel problems facing individuals, organizations, and society. Drawing on organizational behavior and social science research, plus some popular press, each episode digs into a question worth understanding: How does AI reshape what makes us valuable? Why do organizations resist change? How does political fragmentation affect trust? Some episodes focus on work and careers, others on broader social systems. Always aiming for "intellectual but accessible."

In 2013, travel writer Ben Aitken decided to follow in the footsteps of his hero - literally - and started a journey around the UK, tracing the trip taken by Bill Bryon in his classic tribute to the British Isles, Notes from a Small Island.
