Nestles in the heart of Southland you'll find Gore's Hokonui Moonshine Museum! New Zealand's dedicated museum to our illicit distilling history. Curator of the Hokonui Moonshine Museum, Jim Geddes, shared plenty of stories about cat-and-mouse games between moonshiners and the police, smuggling spirits in-and-out of the dry Southland area, and the role the museum plays in the community today. Firstly, apologies YouTube viewers. We tried troubleshooting for ages to get Jim's camera to work. So instead, enjoy these pictures from the museum, highlighting the issues we're talking about. If you love stories about New Zealand history, championing New Zealand spirits, and tales of illicit moonshiners, please like and subscribe to the Distil-Nation NZ Podcast.

For centuries, the Barbary Corsairs captured ships and enslaved European Christians, turning the Mediterranean into a sea of fear and ransom. Backed by the rulers of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli, the corsairs built vast fortunes—and even empires. But in 1816, after failed diplomacy and mounting outrage, Britain struck back.Dan tells the story of the fiery bombardment that shook Algiers to its core and marked the beginning of the end for Barbary piracy. For this episode in our Pirates series, he's joined by Aaron Jaffer, Curator of World History and Cultures at Royal Museums Greenwich.Written by Dan Snow, produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore.You can discover more and book tickets for the 'Pirates' exhibition at the National Maritime Museum Greenwich here.Join Dan and the team for a special LIVE recording of Dan Snow's History Hit on Friday 12th September 2025!

In a couple of weeks, swifts will leave our skies and depart for their wintering grounds in Africa. Author and naturalist Mark Cocker has spent a lifetime observing them and Rachel meets him in Crail to chat about the migrating birds and his new book One Midsummer's Day - Swifts and the Story of Life on Earth. Never a stranger to getting his hands dirty, Mark grabs a trowel and joins community volunteers on an archaeological dig on East Lomond Hill in Fife. Chairman of the Falkland Stewardship Trust Joe Fitzpatrick unearths the history behind some significant Pictish findings on the hill and chats to Mark about the importance of volunteer excavators. Producer Phil gets on the saddle with the Highland Blind Tandem Club for a cycle along the canal tow path in Inverness. Rachel's on a hunt for the egg cases of the critically endangered flapper skate. She meets marine biologist Dr Lauren Smith at Cairnbulg Harbour near Fraserburgh to hear about the work going on to safeguard these huge creatures and map exactly where they are. Mark visits the National Museums Collection Centre in Edinburgh to discover how changes at the site are supporting the local urban biodiversity. We hear how the Museum is monitoring wildlife around the Centre from Curator of Entomology Ashleigh Whiffin. An Irish teenager has just become the youngest person to swim the North Channel from Northern Ireland to Scotland solo. 15-year-old Oscar Black joins Rachel and Mark to share his experience battling the currents to reach Scottish shores While following the Whithorn Way, Mark and Rachel stop at Prestwick, Ayrshire to visit Bruce's Well, named after Robert The Bruce, King of Scotland from 1306 to 1329. They meet Julia Muir Watt of the Whithorn Way Trust and local historian Alasdair Malcolm to explore King Robert's connection to the well. In 2003, part of a sea wall at Nigg Bay on the Cromarty Firth was deliberately breached to reconnect an area of land to the sea. Rachel catches up with Steph Elliot from the RSPB to discover how the intertidal habitat created is now benefiting bird life.
Jen Dalton + William Powhida are the founders of the Zero Art Fair. The basic concept that drives the fair is to get great art that artists have in storage—out of storage and into people's lives, irregardless of their financial situation to purchase art. They started the fair upstate last year and this year, they were invited to present it at a highly respected institution in Chelsea, The Flag Art Foundation. Bill and Jen explore and illuminate their ideas and innovations with Dr. Lisa. They discuss their various projects and processes, (their first project together was in 2008), leading up to this fair and where they are now—getting work into art lovers hands, especially if those folks don't have the disposable income to buy art. Such a fun talk to hear how Jen and Bill have really honed their thinking and process, keeping in mind the desire to make these fairs and interventions scaleable and sustainable simply so the plans can be implemented anywhere. I encourage you to listen to this episode as Bill and Jen describe this important project which seeks to go beyond an art fair and open a dialogue about so much more—such as what is the value of art and what is the social purpose of it? The basics of the Zero Art Fair HERE JEN DALTON https://www.jenniferdalton.com/ @jendalton_ Bio: Jennifer Dalton (born 1967) is an American artist.

"If you didn't grow it, you've got to mine it,” says John Jaszczak, Director and Curator of the A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum in Houghton, Michigan. Since 1838--just after Michigan became a state--geologists and miners have been collecting rock and mineral specimens as the first American Mining Rush began. Since 1855, those specimens were housed at Michigan Technological University, then known as Michigan College of Mines, making it one of the oldest museums not only in Michigan, but the Great Lakes region. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with John about the museum origins and what a visitor can find there.Key Takeaways + Notable Quotes: The region's history—from Indigenous use to mining booms to today's tourism—stems from its globally unique native copper deposit.“The reason we're here is because of the geology. And because of copper in particular.” What began as a teaching collection for Michigan Tech's School of Mines became a public museum in 1902.“The collection started in 1885 when the university started offering courses in mineralogy.”From discovery tales to global expeditions, the museum presents minerals as more than geology.“Some specimens have scientific stories. Some have personal stories. Some have adventure stories.”Under ultraviolet light, otherwise ordinary-looking minerals burst into color.“That's the part where most people say, ‘Wow, I didn't expect this.'”John's lifelong fascination with minerals led him to volunteer, then direct, the museum alongside his career in physics.“I started collecting minerals when I was probably five or six years old... and I just loved it.”From working with scientists around the world to publishing in mineralogical journals, the museum plays an active role in global discovery.“There's something magical about being the first to describe and name something.”The Keweenaw's native copper is on display in museum-quality form that you can't find anywhere else.“We have the world's best specimens of copper. No question about it.”Resources:Visit the A.E.

2023 Weatherford Award Finalist, Nonfiction How can the craft of musical instrument making help reconnect people to place and reenchant work in Appalachia? How does the sonic search for musical tone change relationships with trees and forests?

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the esteemed curator Kelli Cole to discuss the trailblazing Australian artist, Emily Kam Kngwarray! This is a very special BONUS episode and [as a one-off format] an exhibition walkthrough of Kngwarray's show at TATE MODERN. This is the first large-scale presentation of Kngwarray's work ever held in Europe and a celebration of her extraordinary career as one of Australia's greatest artists. Born in 1914, from the Alhalker Country in the Northern Territory, Kngwarray made thousands of works, reflecting her life as an Anmatyerr woman, but was – extraordinarily – only in her late 70s when she began painting in earnest, creating for ceremonial purposes and designs on the bodies of women. Listen to us explore the exhibition: witnessing first hand some of the most dazzling paintings I've ever seen. So whether you'll listen to this ahead of your visit, or be virtually transported here (for those who can't be here in person), I hope we can bring the magic of her paintings alive for you. About our guest: A Warumungu and Luritja woman from Central Australia, Kelli Cole is the Director of Curatorial & Engagement for the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Gallery of Australia project in Alice Springs. Previously, she held the position of Curator of Special Projects in the First Nations portfolio at the National Gallery of Australia, and has contributed to numerous publications, both nationally and internationally, on various aspects of First Nations art. In 2022, she worked closely with another esteemed curator, Hetti Perkins, as part of the team for the 4th National Indigenous Art Triennial: Ceremony. But the reason why we are speaking with Cole today is because she is the lead curator of a very exciting new exhibition here at London's Tate Modern: Emily Kam Kngwarray!

Tim Thompson, founder and Chief Revolution Thinker at Rev.Think, shares his extraordinary journey from knocking on Hollywood doors without a resume to becoming the world's leading consultant for creative entrepreneurs. Starting with a bold door-to-door job hunt that landed him roles on the American Music Awards and Oscars, Tim discovered his superpower: shame resilience and the ability to enable others' creative success.After burning out in Hollywood's digital revolution while working on iconic projects like the "Seven" title sequence at Imaginary Forces, Tim made a life-changing decision to attend seminary and rebuild his approach to supporting creative professionals. This spiritual awakening led him to develop his "creative must win" philosophy and the understanding that the creative muse lives in the same brain space as fight-or-flight responses.Tim reveals his framework for creative career longevity through four stages: Artist (talent-based), Auteur (leading others), Curator (promoting others), and Collector (giving it all away for influence). He explains why AI threatens talent-based careers but enhances creativity-driven ones, and how his Rev Community of 700+ business owners represents an industry evolution toward openness, collaboration, and "other-people-ness."Key TakeawaysShame resilience is a creative superpower - The ability to put yourself out there without fear of rejection opens doors that talent alone cannotCreative must win mentality - Support systems should work alongside creatives, not against them, financing their vision while handling logistics and problemsThe muse lives in fight-or-flight mode - Creative entrepreneurs need someone to "guard their back" while they enter the vulnerable state where inspiration strikesFame, fortune, freedom without compromise - These are the three core motivations for entering the creative industry, and careers should be strategically built around oneTechnology follows technique - Understand the creative purpose and method first, then implement technological solutions that support the visionTalent vs. Creativity distinction - Talent can be replaced by AI or younger generations; creativity involves seeing and creating the future, which cannot be automatedOther-people-ness is essential - Long-term success requires generosity, community building, and abundance mentality rather than hoarding opportunitiesPermission granted mindset - Stop asking for permission and start granting it to yourself to take bold creative risks and pursue ambitious visionsIndustry evolution toward openness - The creative industry has matured from secretive competition to collaborative community sharing and mutual supportSpiritual grounding enables longevity - Taking time to reassess values and purpose can prevent burnout and create more sustainable, fulfilling creative careersRevolution requires revelation first - Change happens through curiosity and "aha moments Daring Creativity.

MARTIAL ARTS, CHINATOWN & BEYOND Smithsonian Institute Exhibition How do Martial Arts get into the Smithsonian Institute? Why is Washington DC pivotal? What happened in 60s and 70s Washington? Why was Chinatown important? How is it changing? How do you get martial into the arts? Andrew Staton talks to Dr Sojin Kim, Guest Curator, Sifu Terence Nicholson, Martial Artist & Artist, Harry Lee Chow grew up in DC's Chinatown in the 1970s and 1980s, and martial arts played a major role in his life. He loaned his unique collection of 60s, 70s & 80s martial arts memorabilia to the exhibition. Check out the impressive Sightlines exhibition on view at the Smithsonian American Art Museum through November 30, 2025. Sightlines: Chinatown and Beyond is organized and presented by the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center An important part of the exhibition examines Asian martial arts as vehicles for self-expression and community building. Several schools and styles of martial arts flourished in Washington during the '70s, resulting in the formation of a racially and ethnically diverse lineage of practitioners that continues today. Clothing, badges, trophies, photographs, and artwork that chart the fascinating rise, spread, and impact of martial arts in the city and beyond are highlighted in this section. It also tells the story of Simba Dojang, a tae kwon do school whose successes earned it the accolade of "the winningest team." “Transforming Tradition” examines Asian martial arts as vehicles for self-expression and community building. Several schools and styles of martial arts flourished in Washington during the '70s, resulting in the formation of a racially and ethnically diverse lineage of practitioners that continues today. The exhibition includes Terence Nicholson's sculpture, Safety Jacket: A Mourning in Chinatown. A 19th-generation disciple of the Wudang Longmen (Dragon Gate) lineage, Nicholson created this with the Kung Fu sashes recovered after the closing of his teacher's school in Chinatown. Terence Nicholson, a lifelong resident of Anacostia and a proud Washingtonian, is a distinguished artist and art educator. A graduate of the Corcoran School of Art, Nicholson received the Rosenbaum Memorial Scholarship Award and has participated in three East of the River Art Exhibitions. His solo show, Intro-Circumspective at the Willow Street Gallery in D.C., earned critical acclaim.

On this episode of Tourism Tuesday, hosted by Janet Michael, the focus was on a timeless event: Colonial Kids Day. Bringing history to life, this event, organized by the Clarke County Historical Association and headed by Executive Director Nathan Stalvey, is set to take place on July 12th at the picturesque Burwell-Morgan Mill. As Nathan explained in detail, this family-friendly event isn't just about walking through history, it's about living it. Through hands-on activities like grinding roasted corn, rifle demonstrations by reenactors, and making corn husk dolls, kids and their families are immersed in the rich tapestry of colonial life. Remarkably, this year marks a significant expansion in participation, with organizations such as the Sons of the American Revolution and the Loudoun Heritage Farm Museum joining the festivities. And for a nominal fee of $5, it offers an affordable way for families to spend a fun-filled educational day together while learning about history. The event runs from 11 AM to 4 PM, and Nathan shared his hopes for favorable weather—anything but the extremes they've seen in past years will do! In addition to Colonial Kids Day, the Burwell-Morgan Mill is a hive of activity with its ongoing art exhibitions and upcoming events. Janet and Nathan discussed two significant initiatives: the Mill Dam Celebration and the Art at the Mill Show. Scheduled for August 15th, the Mill Dam Celebration will honor the completion of critical repairs to the mill dam with festivities that include the introduction of a new lager brewed with barley ground at the mill. The Art at the Mill Show, a longstanding tradition since 1990, continues to draw in artists from various mediums—paintings, sculptures, wood turning, and even glasswork. With the call for artists beginning on July 7th, it's a buzzing time for the local art community. Adding a unique twist to their events, the mill is currently hosting the Summer Support Art Show, featuring works by an anonymous local artist who has generously decided to donate 100% of the art sales to support the mill. What makes this show special is its pay-what-you-wish pricing, with a minimum of $50. This initiative not only makes art accessible to more people but also strongly supports the mill's operations. Nathan also introduced Dana Getka, the new Curator of Archives and Exhibitions, who brings with her a deep passion for military history and a wealth of knowledge in archival science and history. Her role will focus on maintaining the historical collection, developing new exhibits, and eventually sharing her research insights with the community. As the discussion wrapped up, Janet and Nathan highlighted the upcoming membership drive in August, encouraging the community to support the Clarke County Historical Association. Membership perks include event discounts, access to research libraries, and more. For all things history and events, Nathan pointed listeners to their website clarkehistory.org and their social media channels.

Sometimes a joke turns into a new life.Trish Jasinski had built a fulfilling, decades-long career in corporate marketing—and she really loved it. But during the pandemic, while working remotely from a very tiny Paris apartment, she started joking with friends that châteaux in the countryside were cheaper than her shoebox of a flat.Just for fun—and with zero plans to actually buy—she went château shopping.And then it happened. She stepped into Château de Gère, a 14th-century stone fortress tucked into the Vallée d'Ossau, and something inside her said, “This is it.”So she did the unthinkable: she bought it. With no plan. Just heart.Now, Trish lives in a quiet French village where sheep outnumber people, and she's turned the château into a beautiful retreat and event space. She's taken everything she learned from her corporate years and poured it into this new life—this wild, magical, entirely unexpected next chapter.In this episode, we talk about:Following a totally unserious whim that changed everythingWhy “no plan” doesn't mean “no purpose”Using your past experience in completely new waysListening to your intuition (even when it makes zero sense)Creating a life that's slower, sweeter, and more youConnect with TrishBook a stay at Château de Gère: https://chateaudegere.com/Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chateaudegere/ Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!

The Author Events Series presents Rebecca Romney | Jane Austen's Bookshelf: A Rare Book Collector's Quest to Find the Women Writers Who Shaped a Legend REGISTER In Conversation with Allie Alvis Jane Austen's Bookshelf investigates the disappearance of Austen's heroes--women writers who were erased from the Western canon--to reveal who they were, what they meant to Austen, and how they were forgotten. Each chapter profiles a different writer including Frances Burney, Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Lennox, Charlotte Smith, Hannah More, Elizabeth Inchbald, Hester Lynch Thrale Piozzi, and Maria Edgeworth--and recounts Romney's experience reading them, finding rare copies of their works, and drawing on connections between their words and Austen's. Romney collects the once-famed works of these forgotten writers, physically recreating Austen's bookshelf and making a convincing case for why these books should be placed back on the to-be-read pile of all book lovers today. Jane Austen's Bookshelf will encourage you to look beyond assigned reading lists, question who decides what belongs there, and build your very own collection of favorite novels. Rebecca Romney is a rare book dealer and the cofounder of Type Punch Matrix, a rare book company based in Washington, DC. Rebecca is the author Printer's Error: Irreverent Stories from Book History (HarperCollins; with JP Romney) and The Romance Novel in English: A Survey in Rare Books, 1769-1999; her current book is Jane Austen's Bookshelf (Simon & Schuster), chronicling her efforts to build a book collection of Austen's favorite women writers. Since 2011 she has appeared as the rare book specialist on the History Channel's show Pawn Stars; she was also featured in the 2019 documentary The Booksellers. Allie Alvis is Curator of Special Collections of the Winterthur Library, where they are responsible for the stewardship and engagement of the collection. They have previously worked as an antiquarian bookseller at Type Punch Matrix (Washington, DC) and as the special collections reference librarian for the Smithsonian Libraries and Archives.

In the early 2000s, the CIA gave the FBI a huge tip: A team of Russian operatives had been living double lives in the United States.
