episode Father on Trial for Shaking Baby to Death | UK News artwork

Father on Trial for Shaking Baby to Death | UK News

A father stands accused of murdering his four-week-old son by shaking him to death in a fit of drunken rage, with prosecutors painting a chilling picture of a man who lost control while intoxicated, inflicting catastrophic injuries that couldn’t be explained by accident. The baby’s mother testified to hearing him gasp for life before emergency crews arrived, and jurors were told the infant’s feeding struggles may have fueled frustration. Bartlett denies all charges, but the prosecution insists intoxication doesn’t excuse a deliberate act of violence against an infant — and that he’ll never forget the horror he caused. The trial continues at Bristol Crown Court.

Maddy Cusack's Tragic Mental Health Struggle | UK News

In a heartbreaking inquest, Maddy Cusack’s former captain Sophie Barker testified that her girlfriend’s move to another club was the key trigger behind Maddy’s mental collapse, describing the separation as devastating and saying Maddy might still be alive if her partner had stayed local. While Barker emphasized the relationship’s toll, the family’s lawyer pointed to the club’s leadership and lack of support as the main causes. Maddy’s teammates recalled her growing withdrawal and emotional fragility, painting a picture of a once-bubbly player consumed by distress. The inquest continues to weigh personal relationships, coaching issues, and institutional support in understanding what led to her tragic death.

episode A Wall’s Silent Betrayal | UK News artwork

A Wall’s Silent Betrayal | UK News

A heartbreaking tragedy unfolded when 77-year-old grandmother Clarice Berry died after a collapsing wall buried her under ten feet of rubble while she was hanging laundry. Neighbors rushed to help after hearing a sound like an explosion, but she succumbed to her injuries. An inquest revealed the wall had been visibly bulging for years — a danger her husband had repeatedly reported to the landlord, who ignored it. With temperatures soaring to 32°C, her husband and neighbors desperately tried to rescue her, even pulling bricks by hand. Investigations confirmed wall tie failure as the cause. The coroner stressed that a structural survey should have been done by 2018 — and that timely repairs would have prevented the collapse. A report will be issued to prevent future deaths, underscoring the urgent need for landlord accountability and property safety. The family mourns her loss, grateful for the coroner’s compassion and hopeful the report will save lives.

episode Flags Off Lampposts Over Safety | UK News artwork

Flags Off Lampposts Over Safety | UK News

Cambridge County Council is removing England flags from lampposts, citing safety risks and inclusivity concerns — especially after reports of people climbing ladders to hang them. This follows last year’s incident where hundreds of flags were installed along a road, prompting removal. With major games approaching, the council is exploring ways to prevent future flag-related chaos. Critics call it overkill, arguing national pride shouldn’t be so restricted, but officials stress public safety and ensuring everyone feels included. Other councils like Bristol and Oxfordshire are taking similar steps — even going so far as to get court orders to stop flag flying on public roads, spending significant funds to remove them.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
