Podcast appearances and mentions of chris begley

On the podcast this week: what could achieving a large majority at the next election mean for Labour; how much should parents worry about picky eating; and why are humans fascinated with the apocalypse?  First up: The Starmer supremacy. If the polls are correct, Labour could be on to a record landslide at the next general election. Any political leader would relish such a win. But can achieving such a large majority present internal problems of its own? Labour MP Harriet Harman joins The Spectator's political editor Katy Balls to discuss. (1:32) Then: Lara and Gus discuss some of their favourite pieces from the magazine, from Charles Moore's column to Christopher Matthew's piece on A. A. Milne's time at Punch magazine. (16:21) Next: how much should parents' fuss over their children? Spectator contributor Hannah Moore argues in the magazine this week that parents shouldn't worry about picky eating. Hannah joins the podcast, alongside The Spectator's commissioning editor, Mary Wakefield to discuss this. Look out for a surprise revelation about our usual host William Moore… (18:27) And finally: why are we so obsessed with the apocalypse? Dorian Lynskey's new book ‘Everything Must Go' is reviewed in this week's magazine. It explores the stories humans tell about the end of the world. Dorian joins us with archaeologist and author Chris Begley who wrote ‘The Next Apocalypse' about what humans can learn from past disasters. Is there hope for humanity yet? (28:34) Hosted by Lara Prendergast and Gus Carter. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.  We are always looking for ways to improve the podcast, please send any feedback to podcast@spectator.co.uk

“Our mutual investment in one another's survival is our greatest resource, and our greatest hope,” says Kelly Hayes.

Pandemic, climate change, or war: our era is ripe with the odor of doomsday. In movies, books, and more, our imaginations run wild with visions of dreadful, abandoned cities and returning to the land in a desperate attempt at survival. In The Next Apocalypse: The Art and Science of Survival (Basic Books, 2021), archaeologist Chris Begley argues that we completely misunderstand how disaster works. Examining past collapses of civilizations, such as the Maya and Rome, he argues that these breakdowns are actually less about cataclysmic destruction than they are about long processes of change. In short: it's what happens after the initial uproar that matters. Some people abandon their homes and neighbors; others band together to start anew. As we anticipate our own fate, Begley tells us that it was communities, not lone heroes, who survived past apocalypses--and who will survive the next. Fusing archaeology, survivalism, and social criticism, The Next Apocalypse is an essential read for anxious times. Galina Limorenko is a doctoral candidate in Neuroscience with a focus on biochemistry and molecular biology of neurodegenerative diseases at EPFL in Switzerland. Learn more about your ad choices.
