In aflevering 5 ontdekken Christian en Marilou dat de Noordhoekkerk in Tilburg in 1900 al eerder plaats delict is geweest. Twee maanden vóór de moord op Marietje, wordt een ander 11-jarig meisje in de kerkbanken aangerand. Samen met rechtspsycholoog Peter van Koppen proberen we een dader in beeld te brengen.

Estrid Ott er ikke som de andre. Hun sover næsten ikke, har hovedet fuld af planer – og en voldsom viljestyrke. Og så er hun noget ret usædvanligt - pigespejder i 1917.I dette andet afsnit følger vi Estrid gennem ungdomsårene 1917 til 1919 – midt i en verden af krig, sygdom og rationering. Hun drømmer om et liv som eventyrer. Ikke om at passe ind. Og hun er villig til at gå langt – måske også for langt – for at bevise, at hun kan.Det er også historien om Vandrepatruljen – Danmarks mest legendariske pigespejderpatrulje. Om venskaber, vilde planer og den mystiske dreng Peter. Og ja... det er også historien om kartofler. Masser af kartofler.Mange rigtig tak til vores uundværlige stemmeskuespillere: Anne Katrine Østerby Muldbjerg, Niels Rævdal, Emil Pedersen, Louise Harkjær Møller, Sandra Trampedach Junget og Sofie og Alexandra fra pigespejder-podcasten Frit fra Leveren.Også en rigtig stor tak til  vores spejderhistoriske eksperter: Kristian Tolstrup, Daniel Valentin, Klaus Pedersen og Lukas Hagenflint.Kilder:PolitikenBerlingske TidendeBTNationaltidendeBladet PigespejderneEstrid Otts privatarkivDansk kvindebiografisk leksikonVildfugl og Verdensborger af Lotte ThraneSpejderminder af Estrid OttLeg og Løjer af Estrid Ott

In aflevering 4 reizen Christian en Marilou naar Breda, naar het huis van één van de hoofdrolspelers uit de zaak Marietje Kessels: advocaat Frans Pels Rijcken. Samen met kleindochter Miek duiken zij in zijn verleden om te weten te komen wat deze gerenommeerde advocaat dreef om zich tien maanden lang onbetaald in te zetten voor de van moord verdachte schilder Mutsaers. De vijfde aflevering van deze zesdelige serie verschijnt in april.

No battles, except on the most unusual sporting field! This one has two parts. It looks firstly at the YMCA in the Middle East Theatre in World War One.  Secondly a fun look at the Imperial Camel Corps sports day in February 1918 so if you want to learn about 'The Galoot' then listen in.

In aflevering 3 sluit forensisch rechercheur Carina van Leeuwen aan bij ons onderzoek en buigt zich over de mogelijkheden van het stukje hout dat in het archief zit. En stuiten Christian en Marilou op fragmenten die lijken te komen uit het verloren gewaande dagboek van vader Kessels. De vierde aflevering van deze zesdelige serie verschijnt in maart.

Nieuwe afleveringen! Het is misschien wel Brabants oudste cold case, want voor de moord op Marietje Kessels is nooit een dader veroordeeld. Maar 125 jaar later duiken er nieuwe archiefstukken op en zetten podcastmaker Marilou Nillesen en archivaris Christian van der Ven het onderzoek voort. In aflevering 2 proberen we te achterhalen hoe de laatste minuten van Marietje eruit hebben gezien. Door op zoek te gaan naar het plaats delict en samen met een arts naar haar post mortem foto's te kijken. Met alle gruwelijke conclusies van dien.

Fismes is a small town on the Aisne, close to its neighbour Fismette and divided by the Vesle river. Here in the summer of 1918 men of the American 28th Division took part in a bitter battle for possession of its houses and the bridge over the Vesle, a story retold in possibly the greatest American memoir of the First World War: Toward the Flame by Hervey Allen. Here too a memorial bridge was built commemorating their sacrifice, just a dozen years before Europe went to war once more. Got a question about this episode or any others?

I “Fusilaz” - come li chiamano in Friuli Venezia Giulia - vennero giustiziati da chi avrebbe dovuto essere “amico”. I soldati italiani dovevano avere paura.

Aan het begin van dit tweede en voorlopig laatste deel van deze serie zit de schilder August Mutsaers nog altijd in voorarrest, terwijl de koster Johan van Isterdael net in vrijheid is gesteld. Maar niet iedereen gelooft in de onschuld van de Kerk. Je bladert mee door de nieuw ontdekte documenten; kaartjes en briefjes, vaak anoniem, waarin vraagtekens worden gezet bij de dubieuze rol van de koster... en de pastoor. Tegenstrijdige getuigenverklaringen, maar wie liegt hier? En als er zoveel rook is, waar is dan het vuur?

Ignaz Wrobel betrachtet im Pariser Stadtmuseum Revolutions-Devotionalien (Weltbühne, 26.6.1924).

In het eerste deel van deze tweedelige serie hoor je hoe het kan dat er 124 jaar na de moord nieuwe archiefstukken aan het licht komen over de zaak Marietje Kessels. En je gaat mee terug in de tijd; terug naar het Tilburg van 1900. Maar ook naar de gevangenis waar de twee verdachten vastzitten: de koster en de schilder. En terwijl de schilder vanuit zijn cel smartelijke brieven schrijft naar zijn ouders en zijn vriendin, antwoordt de koster op de vraag of het kind nog leeft met… ‘zwijg maar'.

Misschien ken je dit verhaal: van het 11-jarige meisje Marietje Kessels dat op een zomerse dag in 1900 een brief gaat posten, vlakbij haar huis in Tilburg, maar nooit meer terugkeert. En misschien weet je dan ook dat haar dode lichaam twee dagen later wordt gevonden, in de nabijgelegen kerk. Precies dit verhaal komt nu in een ander daglicht te staan. Want nu is er een archiefdoos opgedoken met onbekend archiefmateriaal; allemaal over deze zaak. Tussen de talloze archieven in ons depot bleek één doos een dossier te bevatten, dat daar eigenlijk helemaal niet thuishoorde. Een grote archiefdoos vol handgeschreven getuigenverklaringen, bewijsstukken, brieven en notities; allemaal betrekking hebbend op deze rechtszaak over Marietje Kessels. Niemand die deze stukken eerder onderzocht. Maar nu speuren Marilou en Christian van het BHIC tussen al dat materiaal naar nieuwe verklaringen en feiten. Hun bevindingen zorgen voor een andere kijk op de twee verdachten van toen, de koster en de schilder. Bovenal leren we iemand beter kennen, wiens naam àltijd valt als het over deze moord gaat; die van pastoor George van Zinnicq Bergmann. Volg Marilou en Christian in hun zoektocht naar de waarheid en luister naar 'De Moord op Marietje Kessels: nieuwe getuigen van een oude cold case'. Te beluisteren vanaf maandag 26 februari.

Hailing from Baltimore and with German roots, Gunther was trying to redeem himself after being demoted due to a letter he wrote discouraging the war. He was honored posthumously with the rank of sergeant, the Divisional Citation for Gallantry in Action, and the Distinguished Service Cross. The script also alludes to the tragic fact that over 11,000 Allied soldiers died between the signing of the armistice and the cessation of hostilities as French Commander in Chief Marshal Foch didn't allow a ceasefire. In this context, the death toll was even higher than that on D-Day during World War II. 00:29 The Final Battle01:27 Gunther's Last Stand03:15 The Tragic End03:46 Posthumous Recognition04:10 Gunther's Life Before the War04:23 The Last Day of the War: A Closer Look04:56 The Unnecessary Losses

The US entered WWI after the  Zimmermann Telegram was intercepted by the British where Germany asked Mexico to join the War against the US. US entering the War turned the tide in favor of the Allies as battle fatigue started overpowering Germany and Russia. Russia saw the Czar abdicating while Germany saw its sailors refusing to fight. The War ended with Germany signing an armistice agreement with the Allies on November 11, 1918. During the course of the war, women employment reached a peak due to labor shortage as a big chunk of the labor force was fighting on the frontlines.

As the Delta variant rages across the United States, hospitals are filling up with unvaccinated patients. Americans are suffering and dying needlessly, because the country has enough doses to vaccinate every eligible person. But the pathogen has allies: right-wing fanatics on cable TV who sow mistrust in life-saving inoculations, social media charlatans pushing quack cures, and plain old stubbornness, laziness, ignorance, or complacency among the citizenry. Historian John Barry, author of 'The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History,' returns to the podcast to talk about Delta and the variants to come, the politics of pandemics, and reasons to be optimistic.

When COVID-19 began to ravage the world, many health experts compared it to the 1918 Spanish Flu. What are the similarities? Nearly 100 years ago, the United States was nearing the end of the First World War. A strange illness appeared overseas that took out soldiers. Not long after, it came to America and created a pandemic the likes of which hadn't been seen for centuries. It was The Spanish Flu, a deadly contagious virus that no one was prepared for. How did our country respond? How did Detroit respond?
