    Fast fashion: “Enough clothes to dress the next six generations”

    I’m on a first-name basis with the people who work in my local charity shops. I love them. In fact I’d say nearly all of my wardrobe is second hand. And it’s not just me, studies suggest the market for ‘pre-loved’ items could even become bigger than ‘fast fashion’ by 2029, so it looks as though thrifting is here to stay - but why?  I’m Mary Mandefield and in this episode of Noted, I want to dig deeper into why secondhand shopping is becoming more popular and the real impact of fast fashion. I’ll speak to environmentalist and ethical influencer, Laura Young and I also visit Oxfam’s Northern Logistics Centre in Batley, to find out what happens to clothes that don’t get sold in their shops.  And I’ve got tips on how you can save some money on your clothes, and help make a difference to the environment, too.  Oh and just to let you know, we’ve come to the end of this series! All episodes of Noted are still available, so go back and explore. I want to say a big thank you for listening and hope you have a wonderful new year.  Noted is an original podcast production from The News Movement and Persephonica. Hosted on Acast.

    DJ Target: “We didn’t know Grime would be this big"

    Grime is the UK genre which has led to worldwide stars. Now over twenty years later, its origins are being told on our screens.  It’s Mary here, and on this episode of Noted we’re exploring and celebrating Grime music and culture. I’m speaking to Grime legend DJ Target, whose show ‘Grime Kids’ follows the summer plans of a group of young boys in East London in 2001, who go on to create what we now know as Grime.  I want to explore how this homegrown genre came to be, how it allows people to share their lives, and where it fits into our culture today. BBC music reporter Mark Savage joins me too. I ask him about the way this music scene has evolved over the course of his twenty-year career. And I chat to rapper and producer, Nics, from South London about the power of Grime and its influence on new music.  Are you a Grime fan? Or did you find anything surprising from this episode?

    How will dating look in 2024? With Anna Williamson

    I love dating! But I’ll be the first to say that sometimes it’s long. It’s Mary here and luckily, I heard that in 2024 it could be different…  The dating app Bumble has surveyed thousands of its users about how they date. And it looks like we’re moving towards more openness, less judgement when it comes to dating.  I invited Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating agent, Anna Williamson to go through the results. She’s also got loads of advice for you on this too. We chat about vulnerability, being on the same page and communication. Plus I speak to ‘perfectionism’ psychologist Thomas Curran because we’re all about taking steps to be happy with where we are right now. What do you think dating will be like in 2024?

    Pressing pause on babies. Is egg freezing the answer?

    Have you ever thought about egg freezing? Almost half of Gen Z say they’re worried about their future fertility, in a report from fertility benefits company Apryl. Egg freezing is the fastest growing fertility treatment in the UK. For many people, freezing your eggs feels like a bit of an insurance policy, and could let you have children in the future. But is it always that simple?  I’m Mary, and in this episode, I explore why young people are more aware of their fertility, and how freezing your eggs actually works. Love Island’s India Reyonolds shares her fertility journey. And I speak to her cousin Isla, a fertility midwife, who tells me how the process works. Plus, insight from Dr Catherine Hill, from Fertility Network UK. Get involved with the conversation.

    Is winter making me depressed?

    If the winter months leave you feeling pretty low then maybe you’re suffering with something that around 2 million others in the UK are going through too. It’s called Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. It’s a kind of depression linked to the change in seasons, and is thought to be caused by a lack of sunlight.  So how do you know if you have it, and what can you actually do about it, seeing as you can’t change the weather? I’m Mary, and that’s what I’m exploring in this week's episode of Noted. I’ll be speaking to Dr. Norman Rosenthal - the man that coined the term Seasonal Affective Disorder back in 1984 - about what it is and how to spot it. I’ll also hear from 22 year old Libbigail Evans who was diagnosed with SAD, and get loads of advice from TikToker Jodie Rogers and The North Face explorer Ben Ankobiah about how they try and lift their moods at this time of year. And I wanna hear from you on this, do you have SAD? Even if you haven’t been diagnosed, but experience some of the symptoms of it, get in touch. The WhatsApp number is +447723735241.

    Caster Semenya - race, gender and being herself

    When Caster Semenya sprinted to victory in the 2009 World Championships, it should have marked her place as an athlete on the global stage. Instead, it opened the door to questions about whether she should be allowed to compete at all.  Semenya was called for a gender verification test and it was leaked to the media that she was born with differences of sexual development (DSD), meaning she has elevated levels of testosterone.  Since then, the two-time Olympic champion has been at the centre of a huge debate about gender in sport. This has played out entirely in the public eye, but often without Semenya’s voice at all. Until now.  I’m Mary Mandefield, and in this episode of Noted we’ll hear Caster’s story in her own words. As always, I want to hear from you on this. The WhatsApp number is +447723735241 if you want to tell me what you think, or share an experience you’ve had. This is an original podcast production from The News Movement and Persephonica. Exclusive statement from World Athletics: ‘World Athletics' primary focus is on protecting the integrity of the female category. If we don’t, then women and young girls will not choose sport. That is, and has always been, the Federation’s sole motivation. World Athletics has over a decade of research, directly from DSD athletes in our own sport, that show high testosterone levels do provide an unfair advantage in the female category.’ Fine more from Caster Semenya and full statement from World Athletics on YouTube.

    The flight that didn’t take off: the UK’s Rwanda policy

    In April 2022, the government announced a new policy to reduce migration to the UK that involved sending asylum seekers who reached British soil without permission to have their claims processed in Rwanda.   The Rwanda policy has been debated in the media and in courts of law for the past 18 months and the most crucial legal case yet is being decided right now in the Supreme Court.  I’m Mary, and in this episode of Noted, I want to understand how this policy fits into the bigger picture of migration in the UK. Molly Blackall, the i Paper’s global affairs correspondent, has been covering the policy since it was announced. She shares why it's been so controversial and what might come next.  Kolbassia Haussou, a torture survivor and spokesperson for Freedom From Torture, tells me about his own experience of seeking asylum in the UK. I always want to hear from you, whether it’s something we’re talking about on the pod, or maybe you just want to share your experience. The Whatsapp number is +447723735241.  *As of 15th November 2023, the Rwanda policy was deemed as unlawful by the Supreme Court. We’ll keep you up to date on this story, follow The News Movement socials for more.*  Noted is an original podcast production from The News Movement and Persephonica.  Hosted on Acast.

    An appetite for Ozempic: is skinny back in?

    Elon Musk, Amy Schumer and even our ex-prime minister Boris Johnson have openly said they’ve tried Ozempic, a diabetes drug that can also be used for weight loss.  I’m Mary, and in this episode of Noted, I want to understand what Ozempic actually is, why it’s so popular and is it actually safe?  Sophie Peachey from The News Movement explains why it feels like we’re seeing the drug all over our feeds.  Curve model and body positivity activist Felicity Hayward shares how trends have changed and how we can be making choices about our bodies. And I hear from Tanya, who’s been taking Ozempic and get the facts from Dr. Adwoa Danso-Boamah.  I always want to hear from you, whether it’s something we’re talking about on the pod, or maybe you just want to share your experience.

    “You can buy a knife through TikTok”

    You can buy knives through snapchat and TikTok, and offences with a sharp instrument are up, 4.7% higher than 2021-2022. It’s Mary here, and I want to understand why knife crime is an issue that never seems to go away. Faron Alex Paul set up Faz Amnesty, an organisation that offers vouchers to people when they hand in their knives, without involving the police. I asked him what we need to do to actually make a difference, from better regulation of buying and selling, to how communities can come together. And The News Movement reporter John Simpson shares the impact of some of the stories he’s seen in his career.    Got something you want to say on this, or a story you want to share?

    I’m a man changing how we face toxic masculinity

    Andrew Tate - we’ve all heard the name. He’s a self-described misogynist and what’s more worrying, is that he has a huge influence. Eight in ten boys aged between 16 and 17 have seen his content, according to charity Hope Not Hate. They also found that boys were more likely to have seen Tate’s material than had heard of our Prime minister, Rishi Sunak, which is mad. But what’s the impact of so many men our age seeing this kind of sexist, misogynistic content?  This is Noted and I’m your host Mary Mandefield. This week, I’m exploring how online toxic masculinity affects the real world and what we can do about it.  I speak to my colleague at The News Movement, Freddie Feltham. He’s looked into influencers like Tate, and talks to me about how they became so popular. He also shares his own experiences of figuring out what ‘being a man’ even means in today’s world.  Dan Guiness is from Beyond Equality, which is a charity who works with young men in schools and universities to help tackle misogyny. He talks about the sorts of things people in power are doing to deal with this problem, but also how we can have an impact in our own lives, too. As always, I want to hear your thoughts on this. What do you think about the culture of online masculinity? And people like Tate, and their influence?

    Fleeing a festival: Understanding Israel/Palestine

    Imagine being at a music festival with your mates, then having to flee for your life. You might have seen the videos of what happened at a festival in Israel this weekend. In the early hours of Saturday morning, a Palestinian militant group attacked festival goers at the Supernova festival in Southern Israel. In response, Israel fought back and now over 1500 people have died on both sides.  It’s Mary here with our next episode of Noted: This was an attack that was years in the making. But why did this happen? To understand that, we need to know the history. I speak to The News Movement’s Lucy Marley about the long-standing tensions between Israelis and Palestinians. Why has it erupted now?  And I’ll be bringing you stories from Tammy, a member of the Israeli Defence Force and Yara, a Palestinian journalist, to hear the impact of this shocking violence.  Give us 15 minutes and we’ll take you through some of the things that will help you understand how we got to the October 7th attack.  Drop me a WhatsApp with your thoughts on this episode +447723735241 Find us on our socials: Instagram, Tik Tok and YouTube: @thenewsmovement Website: https://www.thenewsmovement.com  Resources: https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/tips-for-everyday-living/coping-with-distressing-events-in-the-news/ Noted is an original podcast production from The News Movement and Persephonica.
