It is estimated that the temperature of the fire reached 900 degrees celcius. An official inquiry concluded that it had been caused by a dropped cigarette. However, as the documentary maker Mobeen Azhar finds out, some relatives and locals believe that the fire had been started deliberately, and believe that the truth has been hidden from view.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis story goes to some hellish places,\u201d says Azhar. \u201cThere\u2019s&nbsp; injustice, conspiracy theories and the fire that almost forty years later is still leaving scars.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1622228529\"><strong>The Music and Meditation Podcast<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>A new series of the fantastic podcast by the singer Nao, which weaves together great life advice, meditation and music to bring you back down to earth if you\u2019re feeling anxious, stressed or stuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are eight new episodes, which can be listened to in any order. Topics for this series include how to be kinder to yourself in your thoughts, how to manage difficult emotions and how to start each day on the right foot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I particularly enjoyed an episode on overcoming imposter syndrome, with wisdoms shared by the author and therapist Marisa Peer. \u201cThe worst critic in the world is not your boss, or your neighbour or your family\u2026 it\u2019s you!,\u201d says Peer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/great-mysteries-of-physics\/view\"><strong>Great Mysteries of Physics<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>In this new podcast, Miriam Frankel breaks down some of the great unsolved mysteries in the world of physics. \u201cIt is increasingly clear that there are problems that physics, at least as we know it, cannot solve,\u201d she says. \u201cPerhaps we need more data, or perhaps we need a whole new theory of reality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two episodes out so far. There\u2019s one that looks at whether the universe is tuned specifically to create life, whilst the other looks at various theories surrounding time. Is the way we experience time just something caused by the human brain?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kudos go to the team who have managed to break down some very complicated theories into a digestible format that listeners can understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/sofacinemaclub\"><strong>Sofa Cinema Club<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>A nice idea for a podcast. In each episode recognisable names Jack P. Shepherd, Colson Smith and Ben Price decide on a film to watch. They watch the film in their own time, reunite and then over the course of an hour, they discuss whether they liked the film or not. They also rinse each other for their opinions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent films include <em>Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Grand Budapest Hotel <\/em>and <em>Goodnight Mr Tom.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you as always for reading (and listening).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll be back next Sunday with another podcast newsletter.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comic Relief was on Friday, and once again The Red Nose Day Podcast Mashup, put together by Acast, took place to help raise funds for the charity.
