Unearthed Podcast

We've talked a lot about pirates over the last few episodes, so in this Unearthed special I chat to Alex Barker from the Be More Pirate movement, about what pirates and the Golden Age of Piracy can mean for you today.

He sailed the seas in search of pirates, but the world that he thought supported him, would turn against him - branding him a pirate instead. This episode examines the trial and aftermath of Scottish born pirate Captain William Kidd. Was he a notorious villain, or victim of a villainous elite? Interviews with: Richard Zacks: Author of Pirate HunterDr David Wilson: Historian at Strathclyde UniversityNoel Young: Journalist and founder of www.pardoncaptainkidd.comAlex Barker: Author and Captain of the Be More Pirate movement.

Captain William Kidd is a name that permeates pirate lore, but what is less discussed are his Scottish routes. But was this man a terror of the high seas, or patriotic privateer? What's the difference between pirates and privateers anyway? Join me in the first of this two part episode, where I'll investigate the life and crimes of Captain Kidd so you can make your mind up before his trial - is he innocent or shall he hang?

It's a question that brings with it surprising answers, and opens up the discussion of why we still deal with racism in Scotland and the UK today. In this episode I take a look at people of African descent throughout our history, starting with Peter the Moor - a courtier in court of James IV of Scotland...in the early 16th century.

There is a story in Scotland of a woman who was buried alive. The legend of Mary Elphinstone is repeated across every village, town, and city in the country, but where does it come from? Did it really happen? And, perhaps more worryingly, was it common for people to actually be buried alive? This episode of Superstitions is usually only for Patreons but as a special treat, and to tide you over under season two continues next week, I've popped it online for everyone to enjoy. So let's explore the story of Mary Elphinstone, who lived once, but was buried twice. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1994, a group of activists tried to blow up a statue on Ben Bhraggie, overlooking the town of Golspie in Sutherland. In November 2011, some more activists tried to bring it down with chains. Neither attempt was successful, but each represented the deep rooted hurt that highland communities feel due to the brutality of the Highland Clearances. Last week I examined the Clearance story and picked apart the misconceptions, and discovered what the age of Clearance was really about. But this week I delve deeper, discovering how the British Empire and its horrific trade in slaves has connections to the Clearances, how our culture was made illegal by that same Empire, and how those ideologies may still exist today - forcing us perhaps into a new era of Clearance.Interviews in this episode:Dr Nicola Martin, historian from the University of the Highlands and Islands, specialising on British imperialism and highland culture.Dr Domhnall Uilleam Stiubhart, senior lecturer at Sabhal Mór Ostaig at the University of the Highland and Islands about Gaelic culture and highland history.Dr David Alston, historian and author with a research interest in highland history and Scotland's involvement in the slave trade.Dr Iain MacKinnon, historian and researcher for the centre of governance and land reform at Coventry UniversityMeg Bishop, National Secretary for Living Rent, Scotland's tenants unionAndy Whightman, Green MSP for Lothian and land reform activistRaoul Curtis-Machin, Operations Manager at Culloden Battlefield See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1746, thousands of Jacobite soldiers were killed during a battle against the British at Culloden. One hundred years later, the clans are virtually gone, towns and villages have disappeared, and the highlands are owned by a handful of monied gentry. Today, only a pitiful few people own the millions of acres of land in Scotland, so what happened, and why? In the first of this two-part special, let's examine the Highland Clearances to find out the history of this extremely emotive part of Scottish history, what it means, and who, if anyone, is to blame.Interviews with:Dr Nicola Martin, historian from the University of the Highlands and Islands, specialising on British imperialism and highland culture.Dr Jim Hunter, historian from the University of the Highlands and Islands, and author of fourteen books on highland history and clearance.Dr Domhnall Uilleam Stiubhart, senior lecturer at Sabhal Mór Ostaig at the University of the Highland and Islands about Gaelic culture and highland history.Dr David Alston, historian and author with a research interest in highland history and Scotland's involvement in the slave trade.Dr Iain MacKinnon, historian and researcher for the centre of governance and land reform at Coventry University See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1960, a poltergeist arrived in town. To the residents of Sauchie, a seemingly normal 11-year-old girl would move from Donegal in Ireland to live a seemingly normal life - attending brownies clubs, going to school, being a child.

In the 1780s a farmer would make a discovery that would change the world forever. As the Scottish Enlightenment brought new science and ideas to the forefront, one man seems to be forgotten by time. A man who arguably made the biggest discovery of all time. That man was James Hutton whose radical theory would change the way we see our planet, and ourselves.

This would be Scotland's first major witchcraft panic. At its epicentre a woman called Agnes Sampson would be convicted for conspiracy with the devil.
