--:-- Nick Miles: This is the Happy Pod from the BBC World Service. I'm Nick Miles.
--:-- Nick Miles: In this edition, from a war zone to a new sanctuary. Literally the world came together to give these lions a better life. So thank you, because without that, they wouldn't be in beautiful areas where they're able to run on grass for the first time.
--:-- Nick Miles: The lions rescued from Ukraine settle into their new home. Also, the man who's completed a marathon after being told he'd never walk again. Just keep going, you know, even though we have limitations, you can really get through it if you want to. You've got to keep turning up for your life every single day. Just keep showing up for yourself.
--:-- Nick Miles: The youngest ever player to score a century in T20 cricket and a centenarian who's become TikTok's latest influencer. I'm so proud of her. She's amazing. How many is today? Oh, I think there was nearly 200,000. I've got nothing better to do.
--:-- Nick Miles: Five lions that were rescued from Ukraine have been settling into their forever home, with some of them touching grass for the first time. One abandoned lioness was found by chance by people looking for survivors of a bombing, trapped in a cage and suffering from shell shock. They now live in a bespoke enclosure in Kent in southern England, full of trees, wooden platforms and features.
--:-- Nick Miles: And after months of silence... They have even started doing that once again. Stephanie Prentiss spoke to Cam Whitnall, who's in charge of the big cat sanctuary that organised the lion's rescue.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: I broke down in tears. It was like a huge moment, a year in the making of getting these lions out of the war and knowing their backgrounds and what they've been through to then see them step on grass for the first time here at the sanctuary. It was just like all the relief, all the stress had just gone away and it was just beautiful. It was easily the best day of my life.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: And you mentioned they'd been through a lot. Can you tell us a little bit about what these lions survived and how they're now settling in to their new environment?
--:-- Cam Whitnall: Yeah, they have been through a lot, all five. So little Vanda, she was rescued from a flat. She had parasites. She was malnourished. She'd never seen sunlight before or been outside. You had Yuna. She was suffering from shell shock and concussion. She could hardly walk or stand. And that shell shock and concussion came from bombings that fell right by her area.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: And she'd never been on grass before in her life. She'd been in a four-by-four concrete cell. And then given that, going through a war in their country, which none of them chose to be in, they had no idea what had kind of hit them, to now being at the beautiful sanctuary in Kent in lovely sunshine.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: And they've got these lovely areas which have been designed specifically to suit their needs. One of them's got a waterfall feature and a nice pond area. That's for Vanda. So she'll sit on the rocks just above the waterfall and soak up the sun.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: And as you've obviously seen them up close overcoming the trauma they've been through, are they now exhibiting more playful behaviours? Have you seen any more like classic cat behaviours from them?
--:-- Cam Whitnall: Yes, they're all mischievous and cheeky. Honestly, they have settled in so incredibly well. It's just beautiful to see Rory. He's just displaying amazing. He's roaring now, which is lovely. He's got an incredible roar.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: He's very interested in three of the girls, Amani, Lira and Yuna. So he's calling, communicating, rubbing up against the fence with them. And then Yuna, she's running around. Bearing in mind, over a year ago, just over a year ago, she could barely walk. Now she's running and being really playful.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: She's actually flirting with Rory quite a bit. She's rolling over, being submissive. It's like the best thing ever. So Rory has reclaimed his roar and he's found potential love interests. Yeah, so he is truly the king of Kent right now.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: I mean, he's a beautiful lion. He's got an incredible thick mane, which goes right under his belly and even down his legs. So he's lovely. And yeah, his new love interest is Yuna, which I'm a little bit sad about because before Rory was here, Yuna and I had that relationship.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: You know, she was my girl, but Rory's kind of stole her from me. But as long as they're happy. And I understand this rescue was quite a monumental task. It was very expensive and some of that was crowdfunded.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: What would be your warm message to anyone that had given a donation to help get these lions to safety?
--:-- Cam Whitnall: Thank you and we love you. Fundraising half a million pounds is a lot. It's a huge, huge effort. Like we got amazing response from not just here in the UK, but around the world.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: You know, we had people from Australia, North America, South America, Japan and Asia. It's really been a worldwide effort to kind of support our mission and the cause. And we all came together.
--:-- Cam Whitnall: Literally the world came together to give these lines about life. So thank you, because without that, they wouldn't be in beautiful areas where they're able to run on grass for the first time in their life and kind of try and live life the rest of their life as a lion would.
--:-- Nick Miles: That was Cam Whitnell. Over the past few weeks, people around the world have been taking on the challenge of running marathons from Boston to London. Participants have had many reasons to get out and run 26.2 miles or just over 42 kilometres.
--:-- Nick Miles: And our next guest definitely had something to prove. Darren Iwal was paralysed from the waist down 14 years ago. He was the victim of a random shooting and he was told he would never walk again.
--:-- Darren Iwal: It just felt like someone clicked their fingers and said you're never going to walk again. That was all that was on repeat in my head that you're never going to walk again.
--:-- Darren Iwal: You have a spinal cord injury and this is it for you and when I mean just walking also that you've also lost your functions like your bladder and your bowels as well it was heartbreaking because at the time my son was two and a half I felt like I'd done something wrong like I did I deserve this you know like I haven't done nothing wrong I was robbed I'll be honest with you I hit a very very dark place.
--:-- Darren Iwal: What did you tell yourself on your hardest days how did you motivate yourself to keep pushing?
--:-- Darren Iwal: The only reason I can say I carried on to get this far is because even though there always a 1 glimmer that what if what if I do walk again Even though I been told by professionals what if I do walk I built this resilience.
--:-- Darren Iwal: I spent two and a half years in hospital. Being paralysed from your waist down saying this was like wishing for a miracle, you know, and waiting for it to happen. I needed someone to speak to, like myself, to get me through this injury.
--:-- Darren Iwal: But I had no one so I thought I need to be the person that I need because at that time there's no such thing as really talked about as mental health men that feel low there's not this kind of stuff that was talked about in 2011.
--:-- Darren Iwal: Talk to me about your recovery so what did you do and can you now walk freely I mean I know you've just run a marathon but talk to me about what what your movement is like now.
--:-- Darren Iwal: I'm still paralyzed on my left side from my glute all the way down to my feet I'm paralyzed I have motory but no sensory so it moves but it's not there's no sensory like I can't feel hot and cold on it but I'm determined you know like I get up I have to stretch I stand on my elbow crutches and then you wear these little splints that go around your like from the bottom of your foot to your calf.
--:-- Darren Iwal: Talk to me about the London Marathon why did you want to take on such a challenge?
--:-- Darren Iwal: I wanted to prove to myself and to the world that no matter what cards you're dealt with it's your mind your physical is is always going to be there but you have to have your mental in touch every day just as a normal human being with no injury or nothing we've all got stuff going on in our life and I think the quicker we face stuff mentally the better we can get through things physically.
--:-- Darren Iwal: Your mind arrives at your destination before you do and Darren how did it go how did running the marathon go phenomenal so I've done a breakdown so I started of walking then I'll get in a wheelchair and push then I'll get off and start walking and then that that was the program and I walked through the finish line which was amazing as well the crowds are magnificent the crowds of people that go you on even the runners that they're going through it and they're patting you on your back and you're patting them back on their back and you know they're shouting your name you're shouting their name.
--:-- Darren Iwal: I got to kilometer 39 I'm wheeling wheeling wheeling and I look around now my brother and my physio are there but I look around and they seem not to be there but the crowds are shouting but I can't hear a word coming out and my arms are hurting I've got blisters all across my left hand and I'm just thinking let me just get through this please please let me just do this now I don't want to I'm only four or five kilometers away from the finish line now and what time did you do it in six hours 35 minutes wow what an achievement no it's phenomenal like I can't tell you the day the people the atmosphere you know and just like I said like everyone just leaving everything there you know a lot of people do the marathon for various reasons and I respect everyone's reason you know.
--:-- Darren Iwal: And Darren what is your message to other people that might find themselves in a similar situation to you how would you inspire them?
--:-- Darren Iwal: My message to everyone is if you haven't got arms use your legs you haven't got legs use your arms so what I mean by this is don't overthink it just keep going you know even though we have limitations, use the stuff that we've got around us and just you can push through it, you know, like you can really get through it if you want to.
--:-- Darren Iwal: You've got to keep turning up for your life every single day. The best thing you can do in life is like show up, just keep showing up for yourself.
--:-- Nick Miles: Darren Awol talking to Holly Gibbs. To Malta now and a family for whom spring brings with it a special aroma, the sweet scent of orange blossom mixed with the smoke of burning wood.
--:-- Nick Miles: The Bayadas are one of the last families making orange blossom water using a traditional method passed down from generation to generation for over a century.
--:-- Josef Kutaiya: For one family on Gozo, Malta's younger sister island, spring isn't for cleaning, but it's for orange blossom water. Laurence Bayada, who's 57, and his eight-year-old mother, Maria Sunta, are among the last remaining people in the country who still make orange blossom water.
--:-- Maria Sunta: The water is a clear, fragrant distillation of the fresh leaves and flowers of the bitter orange tree. Traditionally, people use it either as a secret ingredient when making sweets, add it to their coffee, or as an antidote for an upset stomach.
--:-- Maria Sunta: In the northern Maltese village of Shara, the Bayada family have been distilling this water by hand for over 100 years.
--:-- Josef Kutaiya: I went to see the distillation process to watch it up close. As I was shown into their garden, an oasis of bitter orange trees, Maria Sunta told me that some of the trees were older than she was.
--:-- Maria Sunta: I've planted all of this. I'm always planting new trees. Look, Lawrence, that one's eight years old. My husband first taught me this process because the tradition came from his side of the family.
--:-- Maria Sunta: I used to help my husband, and when he fell ill, I started to make it myself. And then I taught my son how to make it. When spring comes, Lawrence and his mother collect the flowers and the leaves, packed tightly in a metal barrel, which is then filled with water up to a quarter of its volume.
--:-- Maria Sunta: Once that's done, the barrel is put over a low wood fire. When the water boils, a metal cap with two spouts is placed on top of the distiller, to help the steam to condense. The water then trickles from one of the spouts and is collected in glass bottles.
--:-- Maria Sunta: This process is repeated for 8 hours. The steamed water is sealed in wooden barrels, like those used for wine, and stored for at least a year.
--:-- Maria Sunta: There's not a single instrument used in the whole process, not even a thermometer. And yet, everything runs like clockwork. The distillers, the tools, everything that has been handed down from generation to generation.
--:-- Maria Sunta: Lawrence has been offered the chance to modernise, but he insists on using the same method going back 100 years.
--:-- Maria Sunta: A lot of people have urged me to modernise, but I told them if I don't do it my way, the traditional way, I'll stop producing. It's because this is how I've been taught. Otherwise, the orange blossom water won't come out as good as it used to in the past.
--:-- Maria Sunta: When the short season is over, nothing is wasted. The steamed leaves are turned into compost, the water used for cooling is stored and reused, the oranges from the same trees are turned into jam, and the storage bags are saved for next year.
--:-- Maria Sunta: But the future is uncertain, because after Lawrence, no one seems to be interested in taking up this craft.
--:-- Maria Sunta: Lawrence is, however, focused on the present. While I'm still healthy, I'll keep producing this orange blossom water for sure. It's something I feel, I love making it, and I look forward to these two months.
--:-- Maria Sunta: It's a beautiful process, and when I see everything functioning, I forget everything and stand in awe of how intelligent our ancestors were.
--:-- Maria Sunta: I asked Maria Sunta whether she ever gets tired or fed up with this intense manual work.
--:-- Maria Sunta: Cheekily, she answered. We're in our own place. When we feel tired, we stop. Simple as that.
--:-- Nick Miles: Coming up in this podcast. After a few months, I thought there's no chance that he's going to survive this. They're a lot faster than people think and they're always testing boundaries. So I think they're a lot tougher than we give them credit for.
--:-- Nick Miles: A very unlikely runaway reunited with his owner after nine months in the wild.
--:-- Nick Miles: Apple Vacations Have you ever wiped with a piece of dry, single-ply toilet paper and wondered, is this as good as it gets? Well, it's not. It gets a lot better thanks to the wet, extra-large cleaning power of Dude Wipes.

--:-- Nick Miles: According to a nationwide survey conducted by GeneSight, nearly 9 in 10 Americans who've been diagnosed with depression or anxiety believe that mental health medications are somewhat or very effective.
--:-- Nick Miles: However, despite that belief, more than half of those individuals say they have avoided taking medication due to concerns about potential side effects.
--:-- Nick Miles: That's why Dr. Whitney Brown, a family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner based in Alabama, often recommends genetic testing to our patients as part of their treatment journey.
--:-- Dr. Whitney Brown: As part of my treatment plan, I offer the GeneSight test, which analyzes how a patient's genes may influence how they metabolize or respond to certain mental health medications.
--:-- Dr. Whitney Brown: It gives me insights and takes out some of the guesswork that can be associated with prescribing them. If you or someone you love is facing challenges with depression or anxiety, talk to your doctor about how genetic testing may help.

--:-- Nick Miles: Now to a rather unusual robot that's offering blind people a new way to get around independently.
--:-- Nick Miles: Glide, as it's known, looks a bit like an upright vacuum cleaner with two wheels and a long handle and steers the user away from any hazards it detects with its 3D cameras.
--:-- Nick Miles: It aims to provide an alternative to white canes and guide dogs and will use AI to offer people more information about their surroundings.
--:-- Nick Miles: BBC Access All presenter Emma Tracy, who's blind, went to Los Angeles to find out more.
--:-- Emma Tracy: So Glide is the first of its kind autonomous mobility aid. We call it an intelligent guide. This is Amos Miller. He's the inventor of Glide and that's a new gadget that helps us get about.
--:-- Amos Miller: The user holds the handle and begins to walk. And what happens when they begin to walk? The wheels steer the way.
--:-- Emma Tracy: I want to give it a go, so I take the device in one hand and Amos walks within touching distance of me using his cane.
--:-- Emma Tracy: Gosh, I'm a bit nervous. I'm glad to hear that. So, we've got a blind man with a cane helping a blind lady with a slide. So, shall I go? Okay, yep.
--:-- Emma Tracy: So, now we'll just go and let it do its thing. Now, what you have to do is follow. You're doing great. Look at you.
--:-- Emma Tracy: You know that feeling when you're pushing a supermarket trolley and it has a wonky wheel and it suddenly swerves to the side? That's what this feels like. Glide does it to protect you, but it still feels a little unnerving when it happens.
--:-- Emma Tracy: Whoa, why did it go over there? I don't know, I think there must be something in front of us. Oh. So it just moved, it just sort of took me out of the way. So this is just reacted to the environment.
--:-- Emma Tracy: Now you do it yourself. Okay. Don't walk too fast. It's very odd for me because I just feel like I've got the cordless vacuum out, but it's got a mind of its own, so it's just moved me around something.
--:-- Emma Tracy: It's, oh, I don't know, am I doing this right? It's moved me around. I feel like I'm going around in circles now. Give me any new piece of tech and it's going to take me a while to get used to it.
--:-- Emma Tracy: And sure enough, after another five minutes, my confidence is high. Dangerously high. What would happen if I ran or walked really quickly? Let's find out. Sorry. This is a little bit scary.
--:-- Emma Tracy: I feel like I'm pushing my kid in a wagon or something, and the kid's got his feet on the floor and is trying to show me where it's going. Next. First of all, well done. Thank you. I think it was amazing to see even the progress in the last 10 minutes when you've been using the device.
--:-- Emma Tracy: So one of the things that we're working on is what we call line-of-sight targeting, where Glide will detect potential targets in the environment, like the dropped curb, like the door to the store and things of that nature, so that you can set those as destination.
--:-- Amos Miller: And when will that have, when will we have that? One step at a time.
--:-- Amos Miller: In the future, I'll be able to talk to Glide and Glide will be able to talk back. Hey Glide, take me to the elevator. Hey Glide, take me to the nearest bus stop.
--:-- Emma Tracy: With combinations of mapping data and routes saved by other users, it'll become easier for blind people to travel around new places.
--:-- Emma Tracy: Before he set up his new company, Amos was a senior product strategist with Microsoft when they launched Soundscape, a celebrated navigation app for blind people.
--:-- Emma Tracy: He's also been the chair of Guide Dogs UK, so if anyone can create a new way for blind people to get about, it's this guy.
--:-- Emma Tracy: Maybe that's why lots of blind people have already pre-ordered the Glide, like Chris and Michaela.
--:-- Chris: I got to walk with it last year, and I was so thrilled I almost cried. It was so emotional for me.
--:-- Michaela: Because just to be able to walk freely and not worry and not wonder if I was going to run into something.
--:-- Nick Miles: And you can hear more about Glide and other technology helping those people who are blind and partially sighted on People Fixing the World, wherever you get your BBC podcasts.
--:-- Nick Miles: Next, to a player who's got Indian cricket fans very excited, and he's only just turned 14.
--:-- Nick Miles: In April Vaibhuv Sojuvanshi became the youngest person to appear in an Indian Premier League match having been signed at the end of last year Now he become the youngest player to hit a century in men T20s That's the shorter 20 overs, a side form of the game that's becoming increasingly popular around the world.
--:-- Kulsum Hufaji: Step forward, Vibhav Suryavanshi. The teenager became the youngest player to hit a century. That's 100 runs in a men's T20 game. Fair to say the crowd enjoyed it.
--:-- Kulsum Hufaji: He was bowled out one run later, scoring 101 from just 38 balls and giving his side, Rajasthan Royals, an eight-wicket win over Gujarat Titans.
--:-- Kulsum Hufaji: He became the youngest player to be signed by an IPL team when he was picked up at the auction after a bidding war last year.
--:-- Vikram: We knew what he's capable of and what kind of shots he can play. That's Vibhav's coach Vikram.
--:-- Vikram: To do it in front of this kind of crowd and in a situation like this against a really, really good bowling attack, I think it was really special and a lot of credit to him.
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: This is Mohsin Kamal, a cricket journalist from Kashmir in India. Anyone in India right now is talking about Vibhav. He comes from a small village in Bihar called Samastipur.
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: His parents had to sacrifice a lot to ensure Vibhav plays at the highest level. And in terms of his performance, what makes him so special and what makes him stand out from his other fellow players?
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: Kulshub, the thing is that he's just 14, but the way the power he produces while hitting the ball is just amazing. He scored runs everywhere.
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: It prompted IPL scouts to take a look at him and in December he became the youngest player to get an IPL bid.
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: And Mofsing, you spoke to his coaches yesterday. Yes. What is next for him?
--:-- Vikram: See, his coach tell me that he is the kind of talent that could be seen in an Indian class. He could be making his international debut in one or two years.
--:-- Mohsin Kamal: But they all say that he needs to be taken care of. It is very much possible that in the next one or two years we could see him playing for India.
--:-- Nick Miles: That report was by Khosem Hathaji. Now, it's probably the last animal you might imagine could run away from home. But a 13-year-old tortoise has only just been found nine months after escaping.
--:-- Nick Miles: Leonardo hadn't made it far, though, turning up just a mile through his home in Cumbria in northern England.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: He's never been out in the winter before. He's never hibernated. So after a few months, I thought there's no chance that he's going to survive this.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: I took my eye off him in the garden. So it was entirely my fault. They're a lot faster than people think. And they're always testing boundaries. So if there's a gap in the fence, they'll find it.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: I think they're a lot tougher than we give them credit for. He's clearly found a nice place to hibernate. And then as the weather's got warmer in the last few weeks, he's managed to wake himself up and then go on his adventure.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: I mean, he might have been hibernating right in my back garden and I just not found him, but we did comb the area very thoroughly. So I don't know the name of the man who found him, but it was a dog walker just walking in our little hamlet because they're quite a rare thing.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: He had phoned the local pet shop, Little Beasties, which is actually where Leonardo was purchased originally. Leonardo is microchipped. However, my details weren't up to date, so that was my fault and it's a reminder to everyone to keep them up to date.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: But thankfully, a lady had seen his missing post and had connected the dots and she'd got in touch with me. I was just in utter shock. And my first thought was, well, surely he can't be in good health. But I was wrong and he was absolutely fine.
--:-- Rachel Etchers: He's been inside for the past few days, more so while he just like re-acclimatises. But we've bought him a nice garden enclosure now, so he will be able to join us again outside, but in a more secure setting.
--:-- Nick Miles: Thank goodness for that. Rachel Etches.
--:-- Nick Miles: Now, when you hear the word influencer, you probably think of young people who spend a lot of time on social media. Well, Joan Partridge has just become one at the age of 103.
--:-- Nick Miles: A video of Joan giving makeup tips has racked up tens of thousands of views online and even landed her a role with a cosmetics company.
--:-- Felicity Kvesic: You've gone viral, 180,000 views of your video. Well, I'd have to wear a mask. Oh, my goodness. No, it isn't.
--:-- Lindsay: Can you tell us a little bit about how we got to the stage of Joan going viral?
--:-- Lindsay: Yeah, so we've done the TikTok video with Joan on her putting your rouge on, as you like to call it. Yes.
--:-- Lindsay: And she'd done it as a whole tutorial to teach people how to do it. And then from there, actually, the makeup that she was using, somebody had tagged the company in and said, look, she's using your makeup.
--:-- Lindsay: And the company then got in touch with us, which was really nice to say how lovely it was to see Joan doing something like that. And they wanted to send the makeup out directly to Joan.
--:-- Lindsay: They've seen actually how widespread this was going. And we had 310 comments, which included sort of the younger generation and the older generation, asking Joan to become a bit more of a TikTok sensation for them and to do more tutorials on how to do her makeup.
--:-- Lindsay: And the company then got back in touch with us again and said, actually, we'd not only like to send your own makeup, but all the female residents in the home makeup as well.
--:-- Lindsay: Just last week, wasn't it, Joan? This giant box of makeup came. Came, yeah. It's ever so nice.
--:-- Lindsay: You've got 310 comments. Oh, but are they all nice? They're all beautiful. They are, Joan. And they're all beautiful, beautiful comments from young girls and older ladies all saying how beautiful you are and how much they love your video and they'd like to see more.
--:-- Lindsay: Oh, no, no. I'm too old to go to work. Hi there, my name is Nicola and I am Joan's granddaughter. Joan's got quite a few grandchildren. And what do you say about you?
--:-- Nicola: I always say that I'm her favourite one.
--:-- Nick Miles: We are just blown away. Like, wow. Like, we've been sharing the story, like, with friends and, like, look at my nan. But we're all just like, we always expect the unexpected with my nan. You've always got a face full of make-up. Yes, I have.
--:-- Nicola: But I only use his dog to use it so I don't waste it.
--:-- Nick Miles: And that's all from the Happy Pod for now. But if you have a story you think we should cover, we'd love to hear from you. Just send us an email or a voice note to globalpodcast at bbc.co.uk.
