Fred van der Weij, a Dutch electronics engineer with a craving for healthier chips, spent years tinkering in his garage to create the “frit air” - launched by Philips as the “Air Fryer” at Berlin's IFA technology trade show on 3rd September, 2010. The inventor's prototypes were made from wood and chicken wire - and produced fries that were burnt on the outside and frozen in the middle. But, by the time its “Rapid Air Technology” had been perfected, this mini convection oven took over the world. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider how social media, FOMO and lockdown all contributed to the air fryer phenomenon; explain how the device's deliciousness is due to ‘the Maillard reaction'; and head to the skies to uncover the gadget's mile-high predecessors…  Further Reading: • ‘Philips debuts the Airfryer – crispy fries without the fat' (New Atlas, 2010): https://newatlas.com/philips-debuts-airfryer/16229/ • ‘How the Air Fryer Crisped Its Way Into America's Heart' (The New York Times, 2022): https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/25/dining/air-fryer.html • ‘Philips Airfryer first look' (Which?, 2010): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnJ9xZWC054 #Inventions #Netherlands #2010s #Technology #Food Love the show?

Last time we spoke about the battle of Lake Tai. In November 1937, as Japanese forces advanced, Nanjing's fate hung in the balance. Commander Tang Shengzhi led the desperate defense amidst disarray among Chinese generals, many advocating retreat. Despite political strife, civilians rallied, fortifying the city, knowing its fall could destroy Chiang Kai-Shek's government. On November 19, Japanese Commander Yanagawa seized the moment, directing his troops towards Nanjing, igniting panic in Tokyo.  As fierce battles erupted around Lake Tai, the Chinese forces, though outmatched in technology, employed guerilla tactics and stubborn resistance. Chinese artillery delivered devastating blows, and bold counterattacks kept Japanese momentum in check. However, as the month closed, the tide turned, logistical challenges and internal chaos hampered communication. The stage was set for one of the darkest chapters of modern Chinese history, where the battle for Nanjing would symbolize the struggle against oppression.   #165 Nanjing Surrounded Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. On December 1st, Jiangyin fell. That same day Japanese Army General Staff Deputy Chief Tada Hayao arrived to the Shanghai region to conduct an inspection of the front lines and personally deliver Tokyo's orders authorizing an assault upon Nanjing. The directive was exceptionally brief: “The Central China Area Army is to attack Nanjing in coordination with the Navy.”  Later that same day, at 7:00 pm more detailed instructions were issued by the Central China Area Army. The 10th Army was set to begin its decisive assault on Nanjing on December 3, advancing along two primary routes toward the capital. The left flank was to advance through Wuhu, while the right flank would move via the city of Lishui. The Shanghai Expeditionary Force, having endured more strain than the 10th Army due to its longer tenure at the front, was scheduled to launch its attack two days later, concentrating its forces around Danyang and Jurong. On December 2nd, Matsui received a promotion, given overall command of the Central China Area Army. The responsibility for the Shanghai Expeditionary Force was entrusted to a recent appointee in the Shanghai theater, Prince Asaka Yasuhiko, a member of the Imperial family. As Matsui noted in his diary that day "It's a great honor”. He promptly issued orders to ensure the prince's comfort and safety by all available means. At the age of 55, Prince Asaka, Emperor Hirohito's uncle, boasted a successful military background, including a tenure at the Japanese embassy in Paris. However, this experience had left its mark on him in two significant ways: he walked with a limp due to a car accident in France and spoke French fluently. Despite his talents and efforts, he did not earn the highest regard from Hirohito. He had not demonstrated the loyalty expected of him during the February 26th Coup attempt in 1936 and had since been met with a cold shoulder from the emperor Command in China presented a crucial opportunity for him to restore his standing in the eyes of Hirohito. Meanwhile over in the capital a war for air supremacy raged. More and more soviet pilots were arriving alongside their Polikarpov I-16 fighters. Exhausted from the long distance travel to Nanjing, the Soviet pilots were given no respite and tossed into the fray, performing 5 sorties in their first day. The Soviets were kept very busy as the Japanese increasingly unleashed raids against the airfields in the Nanjing region. The raids became so intense, the Chinese had to relocate their aircraft to bases hundreds of miles behind the front. While the Polikarpov I-16's were severely hampering the Japanese, suddenly a new adversary emerged. The Mitsubishi A5M fighter, still a prototype was rushed into service to help escort the bombers. This was the predecessor to the legendary A6M Zero fighter. Like I mentioned previously I wrote the Kings and Generals episode on the A6M Zero Fighter's history and over at my patreon I have a hour long podcast on it. Needless to say the A5M changed everything in the theater, taking away the advantage the Soviet fighters had wielded for a brief window of time.  At 9:00 am on December 2, a small customs cruiser waving a swastika flag docked at the Nanjing waterfront after making an overnight journey down the Yangtze River from Wuhan. German Ambassador Oskar Trautmann quickly disembarked, accompanied by embassy councilor Heinz Lautenschlager and Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Xu Mo. Trautmann's mission was so secretive that although he had dined with a secretary from the Italian embassy, an Axis partner just hours before departing from Wuhan, he made no mention of his impending trip.  Despite the secrecy surrounding his visit, news of Trautmann's arrival in Nanjing spread rapidly within the German community. Businessman John Rabe, noted in his diary that day “I assume his return has something to do with Germany's attempt to act as a mediator”. Just before Trautmann's arrival, Chiang Kai-shek had a meeting with his closest advisers, primarily military generals. Vice Foreign Minister Xu briefed those present on the peace conditions proposed by the Japanese nearly a month prior. Many in attendance were hearing these terms for the first time and were startled to discover that Japan did not require reductions in Chinese armaments. Bai Chongxi was the first to speak “If these are the only terms, then why should there be war?” Given that the Japanese proposal seemed to allow for the continuity of the Kuomintang led Chinese nation, the generals present, including Tang Shengzhi, agreed to use it as a basis for negotiations. Later, at 5:00 pm Chiang met with Trautmann. The German diplomat said “I believe it is necessary for China to declare its willingness to discuss the Japanese terms in a conciliatory spirit.” Chiang replied, “I intend to do so, but I also expect the same from Japan.” Chiang then explained that they needed to be addressed for peace talks with Japan to proceed, explicitly stating that he would not accept Japanese control over northern China and that he was unwilling to sacrifice his recent friendship with the Soviet Union to achieve peace with Japan. Having secured Chiang's agreement to initiate talks with Japan, Trautmann promptly returned to the German embassy to report to his superiors in Berlin. He then headed back to the docks, boarding the same vessel that had brought him to Nanjing, traveling back up the dark Yangtze River. One particular concern weighed heavily on Trautmann's mind: a request from Chiang to maintain absolute secrecy regarding the upcoming Sino-Japanese negotiations. Trautmann believed that Germany should support this request. He was convinced that if news leaked about Chiang's willingness to engage with the despised Japanese, it could spell the end of his government in China, allowing the Soviets to take charge. At this time, both the Germans and Japanese feared fragmenting China further. Both wanted the Kuomintang to remain in charge and maintain the status quo as they benefitted from it greatly. Staff officer Kawabe Torashiro after a recent tour of the front lines had this to say, “To dismantle the Chiang regime would leave it in a dire situation, giving it the desperate tenacity of a cornered rat in its struggle against Japan. Whether we destroy it or not, we would ultimately contribute to a fragmented China for many years, one that would be a significant drain on the Empire's resources well into the future.” Meanwhile, the city of Changzhou fell on December 2nd, without any resistance. Private Azuma Shiro landed at Changzhou and was ordered alongside his 20th regiment to prepare an assault upon Danyang,  a walled city located about 25 miles northwest of Changzhou. The road between the two locations was nearly straight, running parallel to the railway connecting Shanghai and Nanjing, allowing the 20th Regiment to make swift progress. Upon arriving at Danyang, Azuma's platoon cautiously approached a bamboo grove concealing a Chinese position. Suddenly, a ZB vz 26 machine gun opened fire. Taking cover, the Japanese soldiers entered a nearby cemetery, where the small grave mounds offered some protection. The platoon's knee mortars responded, firing shells that silenced the machine gun. Seizing the opportunity, they launched their assault, swords raised and bayonets fixed, shouting at the top of their lungs. As they closed the distance to the bamboo grove, the machine gun sliced them down. When they finally reached the trench, they discovered it was already abandoned; the occupants had fled mere moments before. Danyang also fell on December 2, clearing one of the significant obstacles in the 16th Division's path to Jurong. Meanwhile to the south, the 9th Division was advancing from Tianwangsi towards Chunhua village, just miles from the capital, while elements of the 3rd Division were also making significant headway. At the northern end of the front, the Amaya Detachment was approaching the Yangtze port city of Zhenjiang, preparing to cross the river and sweep west along the opposite bank. As Matsui noted in his diary that day “The enemy's entire defensive line has been breached, and their morale has declined sharply. I believe there won't be much fight left in them moving forward”. Although the Shanghai Expeditionary Force had yet to launch its final assault on the capital, the soldiers were managing to advance at an impressive pace. Matsui noted in his diary on December 4th “I plan for an orderly occupation of Nanjing. Before entering the city, we must offer Chiang Kai-shek or the garrison commander the opportunity to surrender. While occupying Nanjing, I hope we can avoid unnecessary damage to the city and harm to the population.” Over in Nanjing, Henri Johan Diederick de Fremery, a Dutch officer serving as an advisor to the Chinese army, had assessed the city's fortifications prior to the war and found them lacking. He noted that coastal batteries had been installed to the north and northeast of the city, including outdated muzzle-loaders. In his report he stated  “They might serve against warship attacks, but who would think of attacking this city with warships?” Although some artillery pieces were positioned along the city wall, they were insufficient in number. Some locations were poorly constructed due to material shortages. For instance, a portion of the wall between Sun Yat-sen Gate and the Gate of Enlightenment had been reinforced with makeshift structures, concrete on the outside and a fragile network of bamboo within. It was a façade that would collapse upon the impact of the first Japanese shell. Natural obstacles like Purple Mountain to the east and the Yuhuatai hills to the south existed, but little was done to incorporate these features into the defensive network. The river, which served as a natural moat, became shallower on the eastern side, allowing for relatively easy crossing. As further noted by de Fremery “Nanking cannot be justifiably termed a heavily defended city”. Meanwhile the Chinese Army was engaged in a frantic effort to prepare for the anticipated Japanese onslaught. Engineers readied to demolish strategic bridges, and in many cases, entire villages were set ablaze, blackening the horizon with thick smoke. Heart-wrenching scenes unfolded as farmers were evicted from homes that had been in their families for generations.  By the end of the first week of winter, distant bombings echoed through the air, with explosions powerful enough to rattle windows within the city. The front lines were alarmingly close, leading to a steady influx of injured Chinese soldiers into Nanjing on foot. A pervasive sense of foreboding enveloped the city. Amidst the gloom, there lingered a belief that despite impending challenges, life would somehow continue. On the morning of December 3, a ship departed from Nanjing, loaded with treasures that represented three millennia of Chinese history. Thousands of crates filled with irreplaceable bronzes, porcelain, paintings, and other art objects were sent upriver. These invaluable items had been moved from Beijing four years earlier and stored in vaults in Nanjing. It was evident that the situation could deteriorate rapidly, leaving little time to respond. On December 5, all US citizens in Nanjing were urged to pack their essential belongings and be prepared to leave the city on short notice. The following day, a final order was issued: all American passport holders were directed to make their way to the Yangtze docks and board a river gunboat awaiting them, the USS Panay. As the Japanese Army advanced westward toward Nanjing, it left behind a horrifying trail of arson, rape, and murder. Helpless civilians who fell into the hands of the victorious soldiers endured brutal treatment that often defied comprehension. Now similar to other episodes I have done on my own channel or Pacific War Week by Week, this is a disclaimer, I am about to talk about some gut wrenching horrifying stuff. We are reaching Nanjing, and yes the infamous massacre is going to be told to the fullest. So warning, its about to get graphic. At the hamlet of Nanqiantou 38 residents were met with atrocities that would become more and more common. The Japanese Army set fire to the twelve homes that comprised the hamlet, forcing the captives to witness the destruction. When some of the residents attempted to escape and salvage their belongings, the soldiers trapped them inside, locking the doors and sealing their fate as the roofs collapsed in flames. Among the victims, two women, one of whom was pregnant, were subjected to repeated rapes. In a particularly gruesome act, the soldiers “cut open the belly of the pregnant woman and gouged out the fetus.” Amid the chaos, a 2 year old boy cried out, and a soldier seized him from his mother's arms, throwing him into the flames. The frantic mother was bayoneted and discarded into a nearby creek. The remaining captives met a similar fate, dragged to the water's edge, stabbed, and pushed into the stream. The 170 miles between Shanghai and Nanjing transformed into a nightmarish wasteland of death and destruction. For miles, the only living beings visible were the deceased. The reputation of the Japanese soldiers preceded them, leading many Chinese civilians to prefer a swift death at their own hands rather than the prospect of a slow demise at the hands of the Japanese. While passing through the town of Pinghu on their way to Nanjing, First Lieutenant Nishizawa Benkichi and his men from the 114th Division spotted two Chinese girls across a river. They appeared to be strolling hand in hand, possibly sisters. As they stepped onto a bridge, the girls began to walk towards the Japanese soldiers but suddenly stopped. Still clasping hands, they jumped into the river, disappearing into the swift current. Military efficiency was accompanied by a staggering brutality, where victories against armed opponents were often followed by the massacre of unarmed women and children. This pattern parallels the incomprehensible behavior of German soldiers on the Eastern Front, though there are significant differences. The Germans viewed themselves as a superior race compared to their Slavic adversaries, labeling them as "untermensch." In contrast, the Japanese could not deny their connections to the Chinese. Japan's historical role as a major influence on Chinese civilization was undeniable, as reflected in aspects as basic as the shared writing system. To many Japanese, their nation's relationship with China resembled that of two brothers, one younger and righteous, the other older and misguided, in need of redemption. Matsui Iwane embodied this perspective. Alongside his military duties, he held a deep interest in fostering cooperation among the peoples of Asia, who he believed remained under the yoke of Western imperialism. Since his youth, Matsui had been captivated by China, and while other ambitious officers sought postings in Western capitals like Paris or London, he applied to serve in China, remaining there for nearly a decade as part of Japan's diplomatic representation. By the 1930s, Matsui's commitment to this pan-Asian vision had gained a political dimension, leading him to become a prominent founder of the Greater Asia Association in 1933. This of course was created mostly through the work of Kanji Ishiwara. What was once a exclusive on my patreon can be found over at Echoes of War or my youtube channel, its a four part series on the life of Ishiwara and it goes into the history of how he tried to forge pan asianism, but ultimately failed against his adversaries like Hideki Tojo. Its fascinating stuff, please if you are interested check it out on youtube and comment where you came from.  This organization, though dominated by Japan, has been described as "probably the single most influential organization propagating Pan-Asianism during the 15 year war. During a visit to China in late 1935, Matsui helped establish the Chinese Greater Asia Association in the northern port city of Tianjin. For individuals like Matsui, Japan's actions on the Asian mainland were akin to liberating its peoples. They viewed the establishment of the Japanese-controlled puppet state, Manchukuo, in northeast China in 1932, as a bold experiment in nation-building, hoping the rest of China would benefit similarly. As Matsui wrote in 1933 “Next, we must also extend to the 400 million people of China the same help and deep sympathy that we provided to Manchuria, relieving them of their miserable condition of political, economic, and intellectual subjugation by various countries of the world.” The violence perpetrated by the Japanese Army stemmed from numerous variables. One was a grotesque belief they were actually liberators to what they deemed, ungrateful Chinese. The Japanese believed their presence in China was partly for the benefit of the Chinese people and felt a messianic obligation to save them. This led to frustration akin to that of a father confronting a disobedient son, compelling them to punish what they perceived as disobedience. While the rank-and-file soldiers might not have reflected deeply on these issues, such philosophies filtered down from their leaders. Of course there is a lot more to it, and sorry again for shamelessly plugging it, but on my patreon I specifically did an episode titled “why the Japanese army was so brutal” where I went through everything involved. It ran from cultural issues, to the brutal system of abuse in the military, to racism, radicalization of male youth in Japan, its a very complicated matter. Because again, most of the atrocities were committed by 20-30 year old grunts who had families back home. This was not like the traditional “I was following orders” type of situation, these were atrocities committed by the lowest ranks upwards.  The safety zone, created by Rabe and a handful of other foreigners, began to take shape in the first week of December. It was officially announced, and four committees were established to manage food, housing, finances, and sanitation. Once the plans for the zone were publicized in local newspapers, scared Chinese civilians flocked to it by the hundreds. From its inception, the zone faced numerous problems. Thousands of bags of rice and flour intended for the future residents of the zone were left unguarded and quickly looted, leading many to assume they had been stolen by military personnel. More troubling were the issues that arose when Chinese military units began digging trenches and setting up field telephones within the safety zone, putting it at heightened risk of a Japanese attack. Chinese officers assured organizers that they would vacate the area, but the delay led to growing frustration among those overseeing the zone. Until all Chinese soldiers withdrew, the organizers could not erect flags to formally designate the area as demilitarized. Although the Japanese refused to officially recognize the safety zone, they pledged to respect it.    Following the outbreak of the battle for Shanghai, the Chinese Red Cross stepped in where military medicine had faltered, establishing first-aid teams and emergency hospitals while ensuring that wounded soldiers were accommodated in existing medical facilities. In October, they opened a 3,000-bed hospital on the campus of the National Central University, staffed by 300 doctors, nurses, and 400 orderlies. By the end of October, the hospital had admitted 1,200 patients and performed over 50 operations daily, primarily amputations. However, as the Japanese forces advanced toward Nanjing, doctors and nurses were evacuated westward along the Yangtze River. The entire Red Cross hospital was dismantled, and at the American Mission Hospital, the staff, which had initially numbered nearly 200 doctors, nurses, and trained personnel, dwindled to just 11 by the onset of winter.  With medical facilities on the brink of collapse, a group of foreigners took the initiative to improve conditions, achieving small victories along the way.  Back at the front, the 10th Army continued their march to Nanjing. On the right flank, the 114th Division had marched through Liyang within hours, covering 40 miles over the next two days to reach Lishui on December 4. Behind them, the 6th Division was still lagging somewhat, struggling to catch up after making a large detour east of Lake Tai. The Kunisaki Detachment was tasked with reaching the Yangtze at Taiping, crossing the river, and heading for Pukou, directly opposite Nanjing, to cut off any retreating Chinese forces. To the left of the 6th and 114th Divisions, the 18th Division received orders on December 2 to march northwest from the Guangde area toward Nanjing. However, when intelligence reports indicated that large numbers of Chinese troops were withdrawing south toward Ningguo, trying to escape encirclement, thus the 18th Division had its mission altered. On December 4, they were instructed to change course and press straight west, aiming to trap as many Chinese soldiers as possible. The residents of Nanjing were jolted awake by the roar of airplanes shortly before 6:00 am on December 7. It was the sound of Chiang Kai-shek and Song Meiling departing the capital. Three days before his departure, Japanese forces had advanced dangerously close, and their shelling had intensified to the point that he was forced to move from his residence on Purple Mountain to a villa belonging to a famous scholar who had since passed away, located within the city walls. While organizing his departure, Chiang kept the morale of the troops and civilians trapped in Nanjing at the forefront of his mind. In his diary, Chiang noted, “Staying in Nanjing until the last moment has not only enabled us to complete military preparations, but it has also boosted the morale of soldiers and civilians alike. The evacuation of necessary material has been carried out without disorder. I cannot imagine what might have happened if I had left ten days earlier.” On one of his last nights in Nanjing, Chiang gathered all officers of major general rank and above at Tang Shengzhi's headquarters in the Railroad Ministry. With the First Lady by his side, he delivered an inspiring pep talk ahead of the impending battle, emphasizing that although the Chinese had faced temporary setbacks, they had managed to strike back at the Japanese forces, thwarting their plans for a swift victory. Additionally, he noted that China had garnered the sympathy and support of the international community. “You're being watched by the entire nation, indeed by the whole world. We cannot abandon Nanjing!” He then formally handed overall responsibility for the defense of the capital to Tang Shengzhi, urging the officers to obey him as they would obey Chiang himself. He insisted that this would not be merely a symbolic fight; a sustained defense of Nanjing could tie down Japanese forces, giving the bulk of the Chinese Army the opportunity to regroup and strengthen. He promised that three divisions, fully equipped and at peak strength, would soon arrive from the southwestern province of Yunnan. He pledged to personally lead them back to Nanjing to break the siege.  Meanwhile on the front of the Shanghai Expeditionary Force, the 16th Division had broken through Chinese lines at the crucial town of Jurong, located 30 miles east of the Nanjing city wall, and was now advancing toward the village of Tangshui. To the south, the 9th Division had reached Chunhua, another strategic town straddling the approaches to the capital. Meanwhile, to the north, soldiers from the 13th Division were crossing the Yangtze River at Zhenjiang to establish a foothold on the other side. Progress was similarly swift in the 10th Army's sector. The 114th Division had advanced all the way to Molingguan, a town less than 20 miles south of Nanjing. The 6th Division, having rushed to the front since the order to capture China's capital had been issued in early December, was expected to arrive later that day. To the south of these two divisions, the 18th Division was set to capture the city of Ningguo while continuing its push toward the Yangtze, effectively completing the encirclement of Nanjing. By December 5th, Matsui and his staff completed its transfer from Shanghai to Suzhou, they issued a general directive for the attack on Nanjing. This order outlined two possible scenarios. In the best-case outcome, the Chinese defenders would surrender and open the city gates. In that event, each Japanese division would send in one battalion to complete the pacification of the city and eliminate any remaining pockets of resistance from soldiers unwilling to capitulate. In the worst-case scenario, if the Chinese commanders disregarded Japanese offers to surrender and prepared for a prolonged defense of their capital, Japan would unleash the full force of its artillery on the city. Each division would then send in one regiment to breach the city gates and engage in a fierce battle, fighting street by street and house by house. It quickly became evident to the Japanese, the Chinese had no intention to simply hand over their capital. New York times correspondent, F Tillman Durdin witnessed action between the recently arrived 154th and 156th divisions from southern China who were quickly encircled atop a cone-shaped peak. “The Japanese set a ring of fire around the peak. The flames, consuming trees and grass, gradually crept closer and closer to the summit, forcing the Chinese upward until, huddled together, they were mercilessly machine-gunned to death.” As the Japanese troops closed in on Nanjing, the level of destruction left in the wake of the Chinese defenders became increasingly apparent. Near the capital, hardly a bridge remained intact as efforts intensified to hinder the invaders. The rush to reach Nanjing heightened rivalries within the Japanese Army. In early December, soldiers from the 16th Infantry Division traversed hilly terrain at what they believed was a vigorous pace. Suddenly, to their left, they spotted a parallel column of Japanese soldiers, quickly identifying them as members of the 9th Infantry Division's 35th Regiment. The company commander shouted “Don't let the 35th beat us to Nanjing! Get moving!”  Cities, towns, villages, and hamlets lay in the path of Japan's multifaceted advance on Nanjing. Some areas fell without much resistance, while others were fiercely defended by Chinese soldiers determined to hold their ground until the end. Chunhua, a town located roughly 15 miles southeast of Nanjing, was among the latter. The town was defended by troops from the Chinese 51st Infantry Division, who had participated in some of the toughest battles around Shanghai during the autumn months. The 51st Division found its withdrawal to Nanjing cut off by fast-moving Japanese columns. Only with the assistance of local civilians were various units able to sneak back to the capital, filtering through enemy lines. Upon arrival, the division's soldiers had hoped for a chance to cross the Yangtze for much-needed rest. Instead, Chiang Kai-shek ordered them to immediately reinforce the defenses at Chunhua. As the troops arrived in Chunhua village in early December, they were dismayed to find the pillboxes in disrepair. Some bunkers had been buried too deep to function effectively as defensive structures, while others had excessively large embrasures that offered little to no protection from enemy fire. Most frustratingly, keys to the bunkers were often missing, making entry problematic. The division worked tirelessly to improve their positions using whatever materials could be requisitioned from the area, but time was too short to bring the defenses up to the standard the commanders desired. Nonetheless, they achieved significant upgrades: three lines of defenses in front of Chunhua, centered around several pillboxes; two rows of barbed wire; and an antitank ditch to complicate any advance. Hidden machine gun nests also provided surprises for the Japanese infantry. On December 4, the Japanese vanguard, a column of about 500 soldiers from the 9th Division, was spotted, and over the next two days, the solitary company at Shuhu endured intense assaults. The Chinese dispatched an armored platoon as temporary reinforcements, marking one of the rare instances when Chinese tanks confronted Japanese infantry directly. The Chinese lost three armored vehicles, while the Japanese reported around 40 casualties among their infantry. By the afternoon of December 6, the surviving Chinese soldiers at Shuhu, numbering fewer than 30, abandoned their positions and fought their way back to Chunhua, leaving their fallen comrades behind. Advancing units of Japan's 9th Division closely followed, initially avoiding contact with the Chinese defenses to conduct reconnaissance. Based on their observations, the Japanese concluded that although the Chinese defenses appeared well-prepared, they were thinly manned. Costly fighting resulted in the Japanese gaining control over only the first of the three Chinese defense lines. Determined to capture the next two lines, they once again depended heavily on their artillery.  In several sectors along the front, soldiers of the 9th Japanese Division found themselves caught in the deadly crossfire of Chinese machine guns, creating a virtual kill zone from which there was no escape. For the Chinese defenders, the conditions were equally horrific. As recalled by the commander of the Chinese 51st division, Wang Yaowu “The shelling was incessant. Body parts were flying through the air. Some men lost legs, others arms. Brains were splattered everywhere”. The division's 301st Regiment, which bore the brunt of the battle, suffered approximately 1,500 casualties among its officers and soldiers. On the second day of the battle for Chunhua, December 7, their left flank made some gains, penetrating the area behind the village. The breakthrough, however, came in the afternoon of December 8 when an entire regiment that had been lagging behind the rest of the 9th Division arrived just in time to join the fight. This bolstered the morale of the Japanese troops and provided momentum to their attack. By the end of that day, Chunhua was firmly under Japanese control.

As the Japanese forces advanced, Nanjing's fate teetered on the brink. Commander Tang Shengzhi led a beleaguered defense amidst chaos, while civilians fortified the city, aware of its significance. On December 1, General Matsui officially ordered an assault on Nanjing. As Japanese troops closed in, brutality loomed on the horizon, heralding one of China's darkest chapters in its fight against oppression.

The danger of “question everything” is that it often leads to believing nothing. In this episode of Ideas Have Consequences, Larry Alex Taunton explores how influencers today encourage a skepticism that can slide into denialism — from rewriting WWII history to reshaping the definitions of fascism and Marxism. Larry exposes why the common belief that fascism and Marxism are opposites is misleading — and how both are being repackaged in modern globalist agendas.

In the final chapter of our COVID-19 series, we turn to the questions, controversies, and conspiracies that defined the pandemic long after the first waves passed. If Part One was about origins and Part Two was about lockdowns, Part Three is about what came after—the battle over truth, trust, and who gets to control the narrative.We explore how theories spread faster than the virus itself. Was COVID-19 born in a Wuhan wet market, or was it the result of a lab leak covered up by governments? Why did so many people believe hospitals were given financial incentives to diagnose patients with COVID? And how did debates over treatments like ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine morph into political flashpoints rather than scientific discussions?We'll revisit the conspiracies that grabbed headlines: the “Great Reset,” which claimed global elites used the pandemic as a pretext to redesign society; the 5G theory, which linked cell towers to the virus's spread; the myth of microchipped vaccines; and the belief that lockdowns were less about health and more about social control. Some of these theories dissolved under scrutiny, but others remain unsettled questions that continue to fuel public skepticism today.And of course, we cannot ignore the human voices that amplified them. Joe Rogan, one of the world's most influential podcasters, defended his use of ivermectin and confronted mainstream media coverage. Politicians clashed over mandates, sometimes while quietly benefiting from relief programs themselves. Meanwhile, protests erupted from Berlin to Melbourne as citizens pushed back against restrictions, vaccine rules, and what they saw as government overreach.Beyond the conspiracies, we also ask what's left in the aftermath. Did the erosion of trust in science and institutions do more lasting damage than the virus itself? How do we reconcile the very real success of vaccines and public health measures with the equally real anger, confusion, and misinformation that spread alongside them?COVID-19 changed the world, but the stories we told about it—and the doubts we carried—may prove just as lasting. In this finale, we peel back the mask to confront not only the virus, but the fear, politics, and conspiracies that will forever shape how history remembers it.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

Derek Scally, Berlin correspondent with the Irish Times, discusses the recent clampdown on Pro-Palestinian protests in Germany.

This episode is about love. What does it mean to study love ethnographically and analytically? How might we speak of love, especially in today's social and political climate? In dialogue with Dr Omar Kasmani, whose work explores migrant loves and intimacies in Berlin, we trace the hopes, heartbreaks, and potentialities that love can hold for field research and ethnographic writing. Bridging the subjective and the objective, the personal and the shared, the inward and the outward, love remains a concept as powerful as it is perplexing. We hope this conversation encourages a more deliberate investigation of love within our discipline, and highlights its richness and complexity as an essential lens for ethnographic inquiry.

Der Neubau-Abschnitt der Autobahn 100 in Berlin ist ein Beispiel verfehlter Verkehrspolitik.

The Book of Travels Ḥannā Diyāb: A Conversation with Johannes StephanThe Book of Travels is Ḥannā Diyāb's remarkable first-person account of his travels as a young man from his hometown of Aleppo to the court of Versailles and back again, which forever linked him to one of the most popular pieces of world literature, the Thousand and One Nights.Diyāb, a Maronite Christian, served as a guide and interpreter for the French naturalist and antiquarian Paul Lucas. Between 1706 and 1716, Diyāb and Lucas traveled through Syria, Cyprus, Egypt, Tripolitania, Tunis, Italy, and France. In Paris, Ḥannā Diyāb met Antoine Galland, who added to his wildly popular translation of the Thousand and One Nights several tales related by Diyāb, including “Aladdin” and “Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.” When Lucas failed to make good on his promise of a position for Diyāb at Louis XIV's Royal Library, Diyāb returned to Aleppo. In his old age, he wrote this engaging account of his youthful adventures, from capture by pirates in the Mediterranean to quack medicine and near-death experiences.Translated into English for the first time, The Book of Travels introduces readers to the young Syrian responsible for some of the most beloved stories from the Thousand and One Nights.

Most of us have a conversation we're avoiding: a child coming out to their parent, a family losing someone to terminal illness, a friend noticing early signs of dementia. There are moments when we simply must talk, listen and be there for one another. DR KATHRYN MANNIX, a consultant in palliative care medicine, has spent her career having what she describes as “tender conversations” with bereaved families. Her book, Listen: How to Find the Words for Tender Conversations, is a guide to broaching difficult subjects with those we care about. In this classic reissued episode Andrew and Kathryn discuss why it is we so often don't say what needs to be said. They look at how to be brave in the face of discomfort, how to sit with silence, and how to speak from a place of gentleness and care.  Dr Kathryn Mannix has spent her medical career working with people who have incurable, advanced illnesses. She is also the author of the bestselling With the End in Mind: How to Live and Die Well. Kathryn is a qualified cognitive behavioural therapist and started the UK's first CBT clinic for palliative care patients. If You're Looking for More….

Bilder von Hungernden mit leeren Töpfen beherrschen die Medien, die Zahlen klingen niederschmetternd: Jeder zweite Mensch im Sudan hungert, in Gaza sind es fast eine halbe Million Menschen. Zwar geht der Hunger laut Welternährungsbericht leicht zurück, allerdings steigen die Zahlen in Afrika und dem westlichen Asien. Am 1. September treffen sich die Vertreter der G20 Staaten in Ägypten, um über die globale Ernährungssicherheit zu diskutieren. Doch was können solche Gipfel erreichen? Welche Folgen hatten und haben Hungersnöte langfristig? Wie lässt sich Unterernährung und Hunger wirksam bekämpfen – auch angesichts gekürzter Hilfsgelder westlicher Staaten?

Hertha rutscht immer weiter in die Krise und liegt schon früh in der Saison am Boden. Auf dem Transfermarkt erfolgreicher: der Podcast.

Am 30. August 1980 fand im damaligen West-Berlin vor dem Reichstagsgebäude ein ikonisches Konzert statt. Die Band Barclay James Harvest spielte ihr Konzert "Berlin (A Concert For The People)". Rund 175.000 Menschen kamen zu diesem ikonischen Open-Air-Konzert. Das Ereignis wurde nicht nur verfilmt, sondern 1982 auch als Livealbum veröffentlicht. Das Album erreichte in Deutschland die Spitze der Charts und durfte laut Meilensteine-Host Frank König damals in keiner Teenager-Plattensammlung fehlen. Zum Zeitpunkt des Konzerts war Berlin noch eine geteilte Stadt. West-Berlin entwickelte sich in den 1960ern und besonders in den 70ern zu einer musikalischen Brutstätte. Bekannte Künstler wie David Bowie und Iggy Pop hielten sich zu dieser Zeit in diesem Teil der Stadt auf. Im Ostteil sah es bekanntlich ganz anders aus. Westliche Musik war für den Osten unerreichbar und es durfte nur das gehört werden, was systemkonform war. Als mit Barclay James Harvest eine der erfolgreichsten Bands der Welt ein Konzert direkt an der Berliner Mauer spielte, war das deshalb ein sehr besonderer und symbolträchtiger Moment. Direkt vor dem Reichstagsgebäude spielten Barclay James Harvest Lieder wie "Berlin" und "In Memory Of The Martyrs". "In Memory Of The Martyrs" erinnert an die vielen Menschen, die bei ihrer Flucht über die Mauer ihr Leben verloren, während "Berlin" die Atmosphäre und das Lebensgefühl der geteilten Stadt einfängt. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Berlin (A Concert For The People)" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (05:04) – "Berlin"(09:49) – "In Memory Of The Martyrs"(15:50) – "Mockingbird" (1980 Berlin Live Version)(23:41) – "Life Is For Living"(26:03) – "Loving Is Easy"(29:30) – "Child Of The Universe"(35:00) – "Hymn"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/barclay-james-harvest-berlin-a-concert-for-the-people __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Nehls, Anja www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Studio 9

O anchetă efectuată de trei instituții media germane ar putea avea consecințe importante în plan politic și diplomatic. Investigația de presă a dezvăluit identitățile a șapte persoane suspectate de sabotarea conductelor de gaze subacvatice care leagă Germania de Rusia.  Ancheta a fost realizată de ziarele Süddeutsche Zeitung și Die Zeit, alături de postul tv ARD. Dezvăluirile ar putea afecta relațiile dintre Germania și Ucraina, dar în tablou apare și Polonia. Cazul ar putea avea, într-adevăr ramificații nebănuite, așa cum putem afla din revista Courrier International, care realizează o sinteză a articolelor din presa germană pe această temă. Totul a început pe 21 august cu arestarea, în stațiunea italiană Rimini, a unui ucrainean bănuit de implicare în sabotarea conductelor de gaz Nord Stream. Serhiy K., în vârstă de 49 de ani, este acuzat că ar fi fost unul dintre coordonatorii operațiunii din septembrie 2022. Dar el nu este singurul membru al echipei responsabile pentru acest sabotaj aflat în vizorul sistemului judiciar. Autoritățile germane au identificat șapte persoane, inclusiv un căpitan de navă, un expert în explozibili, un specialist în logistică și patru scafandri, pentru care au emis mandate de arestare. Se crede că au trecut prin Polonia și apoi au ieșit pe mare la bordul navei Andromeda, care a plecat din portul german Rostock și a ajuns în apropierea insulei daneze Christiansoe. Un progres spectaculos Pentru anchetatori, „arestarea din Italia reprezintă un progres spectaculos”, relatează Die Zeit. Dar obligă și autoritățile germane să își pună alte întrebări: „Cine sunt sponsorii și cine a dat undă verde operațiunii? Care sunt legăturile lor în cadrul statului și cât de departe merg? Și mai presus de toate, ce influență va avea acest lucru asupra relației Germaniei cu Ucraina?” În timp ce suspiciunile se îndreptau în trecut către Statele Unite sau Rusia, numeroase indicii vizează acum Ucraina, scriu jurnaliștii germani. Ei dezvăluie că echipajul navei Andromeda deținea pașapoarte românești false, dar și pașapoarte reale emise de autoritățile ucrainene, pe care erau scrise nume false. Publicațiile germane indică o serie de legături ale membrilor grupului cu servicii ucrainene sau la vârful armatei. Dacă Volodimir Zelenski ar fi implicat, aceasta ar putea declanșa un conflict diplomatic major între Berlin, Kiev și chiar Varșovia. Site-ul ARD subliniază că ancheta a fost condusă cu dificultate de către poliția germană. Aceasta, deoarece „timp de luni de zile, serviciile poloneze au obstrucționat ancheta”. Ceea ce ridică întrebarea dacă „Polonia consideră cu adevărat sabotajul Nord Stream ca fiind problematic, având în vedere că nu a încetat niciodată să critice conductele”. De partea germană, „cancelaria face tot posibilul să se prefacă că a fost doar un act uriaș de vandalism”, afirmă ziarul Die Zeit. Insistă că trebuie făcută dreptate, dar rămâne și foarte precaută în declarațiile sale. Și pe bună dreptate: „Cea mai mică perturbare ar putea deraia fragilele negocieri privind viitorul Ucrainei dintre Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump și europeni”, notează presa germană.

Il y a dix ans, l'Allemagne faisait face à l'arrivée de plus de 890 000 réfugiés. L'année 2015 a marqué un tournant dans l'histoire du pays, et le 31 août, la chancelière prononçait une petite phrase devenue depuis un morceau d'histoire, « Wir schaffen das », soit « nous y arriverons », en référence à l'intégration de ces personnes. Dix ans plus tard, portrait d'un jeune Syrien qui a parfaitement réussi son intégration et qui s'inquiète du tournant politique pris par sa nouvelle patrie.   De notre correspondante à Berlin, Un reportage à retrouver en entier sur la page du podcast Accents d'Europe.

Heute mit Knud Ballhaus und Fabian Arnold. Kennengelernt haben sich beide in einer Berliner Bäckerei. Fabian als Koch, der seine Zeit während der Corona-Pandemie sinnvoll nutzen, und Knud als Quereinsteiger, der etwas dazulernen wollte. Warum das nicht geklappt hat und sie gerade deshalb nun eine eigene Bäckerei in Berlin betreiben, erzählen sie in dieser Podcastfolge. Übrigens auch, was Heinrich Böll damit zu tun hat. Spannende Einblicke in handwerkliche und menschliche Abgründe, aber auch in viel Mutmachendes. Infos zur Quereinsteiger-Reihe: Wer abseits der ausgetretenen Pfade als Quereinsteiger eine eigene Bäckerei eröffnen möchte, hat es in Deutschland schwer. Um Meisterzwang und das veraltete Ausbildungssystem zu überwinden, braucht es Nerven, Willensstärke und viel Freude am guten Brot. In dieser Reihe nehmen uns Quereinsteiger mit auf ihren Weg.

Dans le supplément de ce samedi, Grand reportage week-end est entièrement consacré au changement climatique. En première partie, direction l'Allemagne, la capitale doit faire rapidement le nécessaire pour s'adapter aux effets du changement climatique. En deuxième partie, direction le Pérou, à Iquitos, où les riverains du fleuve Amazone subissent les dégâts du changement climatique (sécheresse, inondations). (Rediffusion) Berlin, ville éponge : sur la voie de l'adaptation au changement climatique  Berlin vit la plus importante transformation de son histoire. Comme d'autres grandes villes dans le monde, la capitale allemande et ses quatre millions d'habitants doit faire vite pour s'adapter aux effets du changement climatique.  La municipalité a donc adopté un nouveau concept : celui de la « ville-éponge ». Il s'agit de permettre à la terre d'absorber l'eau. Ou bien de la collecter pour la rendre ensuite disponible en période de sécheresse.  Depuis 2018, pour chaque nouvelle construction, plus aucune goutte de pluie ne doit partir dans les canalisations. Cela pose des défis considérables et oblige à trouver des solutions innovantes. Un Grand reportage de Stefanie Schüler qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix. À Iquitos, au Pérou, le changement climatique bouleverse le quotidien des riverains de l'Amazone Cette année encore, l'Amazonie connaît l'une des pires sécheresses, les images satellites sont édifiantes : des fleuves à sec, des bateaux échoués... Au Pérou, dans la région d'Iquitos, tout tourne autour de l'Amazone. Le fleuve géant de l'Amérique du Sud. Les habitants du quartier de Belen et des communautés alentours n'ont plus de repères face à des cycles de sécheresse et d'inondation, totalement bouleversés. La pêche, l'agriculture, le transport, l'éducation, la santé, le logement… pas un secteur n'échappe à ces chamboulements, faute de plan d'adaptation des autorités, les habitants tentent de faire face au jour le jour. Un Grand reportage de Juliette Chaignon qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.      

Mit einem Outfit für Eindruck sorgen – das ging damals wahnsinnig gut. Mit der offiziellen GZSZ-Kollektion zum Beispiel. Wilde Kombination, aber der Eindruck war da. Beeindruckend war auch das Brotdosen-Game anderer Leute und der Versuch, da auch mal was abzugreifen. – Im Hier und Jetzt wurde sich dann auf eine Diskussion über Instagram eingelassen. Mit einer wildfremden Person. Nicht die beste Idee. Aber warum lügen? Schuld daran trägt eh diese eine Woche, in der man nun mal schwach werden kann, wenn es in den Fingern juckt… .Schreibt doch mal wieder: hallo@zsvpodcast.deUnseren Instagram-Account findet ihr hier: https://www.instagram.com/zsvpodcastUnd hier geht's direkt zu TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zumscheiternverurteiltZur ZSV-Playlist geht HIER lang. +++ Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Victor Puertas joins me on episode 142. Victor Puertas grew up just outside Barcelona, discovering the blues in his early teens, splitting his passion between harmonica and keyboards. At 18 he traveled to the US and had the chance to meet his idol, Gary Primich.Back home, Victor formed The Suitcase Brothers  with his brother Santos, who had given him his very first harmonica at age 13. For over 27 years the duo have been exploring acoustic country blues, with their latest album, a tribute to Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, earning recognition from the Piedmont Blues Preservation Society.Victor continues to perform in the duo as well as with other bands, where he showcases his deep love of the blues.Links:The Suitcase Brothers: https://suitcasebrothers.com/The Suitcase Brothers albums on Bandcamp: https://suitcasebrothers.bandcamp.com/Victor Puertas & The Mellow Tones on Bandcamp: https://victorpuertasmellowtones.bandcamp.com/musicVideos:The Suitcase Brothers performing live at the FEN Festival, Berlin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EH6115tQ6WU&t=3sVictor Puertas & The Mellow Tones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oooYZqq_J7gHarpin' By The Sea workshop on Gary Primich: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kC63Zz-tDAEPlaying with Steve ‘West' Weston: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rCkKFRJOIM&list=RD3rCkKFRJOIMKonstantin Reinfeld  at the Seoul International Harmonica Festival 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi73OEN_ZxIPodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICAS--------------------------------Blue Moon Harmonicas: https://bluemoonharmonicas.comSupport the show

In 1972, the Olympics returned to Germany for the first time since being hosted in Berlin in 1936. The Games were intended to present a new image of West Germany, one that would reject the image portrayed at the previous Nazi-hosted Games and showcase a modern, peaceful nation. That didn't happen. Instead, it became known for a terrorist attack on the Israeli Olympic team, which led to the death of eleven athletes and coaches, and one German police officer.

MUSICWe still don't know exactly what happened to get Josh Freese fired from the Foo Fighters but in a recent interview with the New York Times, he reflected on it: “Freese admits to being blindsided by the decision, particularly since no explanation was given. Without providing too much detail, Freese takes some of the blame off of Grohl, pointing his finger elsewhere. “Looking back, it was probably more an issue with their management,” Freese said. https://www.alternativenation.net/josh-freese-points-finger-in-foo-fighters-firing/ Sebastian Bach has some choice words for so-called "vocal experts" who criticize his singing on YouTube. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/sebastian-bach-slams-vocal-experts/ Amy Lee of Evanescence, Courtney LaPlante of Spiritbox and Poppy have all posted a photo of the three of themselves on Instagram, leading fans to speculate that a collaborative track is on the way soon. https://www.instagram.com/p/DN0wCHB6gcL/ Jelly Roll has now shed more than 200 pounds, and he's celebrating his weight loss in style, by hopping on a motorized scooter in Berlin, Germany.
