Episode: 1510 Thomas Sopwith's hundredth birthday.  Today, we meet the oldest airplane designer.

Onchan MHK Rob Callister was in the Falkland Islands last month as part of a Commonwealth Parliametary Association team of election observers. You'll be pleased to know this visit was not funded by the tax payer but you may be interested to know what the Isle of Man can learn from such trips. Mr Callister tells us all about the trip on Agenda. With a 90% turn out in Falklands elections it seems trust in politicians is much higher there than it is here. Unlike here they don't call each other clowns in the Falklands government but is it ok for us to call Tynwald members clowns …. or just think it but don't say it out loud?

Philip Stern places the corporation―more than the Crown―at the heart of British colonialism, arguing that companies built and governed global empire, raising questions about public and private power that were just as troubling four hundred years ago as they are today. Across four centuries, from Ireland to India, the Americas to Africa and Australia, British colonialism was above all the business of corporations. Corporations conceived, promoted, financed, and governed overseas expansion, making claims over territory and peoples while ensuring that British and colonial society were invested, quite literally, in their ventures. Colonial companies were also relentlessly controversial, frequently in debt, and prone to failure. The corporation was well-suited to overseas expansion not because it was an inevitable juggernaut but because, like empire itself, it was an elusive contradiction: public and private; person and society; subordinate and autonomous; centralized and diffuse; immortal and precarious; national and cosmopolitan―a legal fiction with very real power. Breaking from traditional histories in which corporations take a supporting role by doing the dirty work of sovereign states in exchange for commercial monopolies, Stern argues that corporations took the lead in global expansion and administration. Whether in sixteenth-century Ireland and North America or the Falklands in the early 1980s, corporations were key players. And, as Empire, Incorporated: The Corporations That Built British Colonialism (Harvard UP, 2023) makes clear, venture colonialism did not cease with the end of empire. Its legacies continue to raise questions about corporate power that are just as relevant today as they were 400 years ago. Challenging conventional wisdom about where power is held on a global scale, Stern complicates the supposedly firm distinction between private enterprise and the state, offering a new history of the British Empire, as well as a new history of the corporation.

The Special Relationship: from Britain defaulting on its loans in the 1930s, to Suez, to Falklands, to the War on Terror, to Trump patronising Starmer at the recent Israel-Gaza peace summit, the precise specialness of this relationship has long been in dispute - whether the political classes acknowledge it or not. There was of course Lend-Lease and the small matter of two World Wars, but Britain's post-war status, as junior partner in the American Empire has meant it has profited, but as the world pivots, it is now exposed. Philip Pilkington has been watching the recent wire-tap scandal with Steve Witkoff and Russian official Yuri Ushakov with interest. There is only one country with the capabilities to pull off that kind of intelligence breach, he suggests. And as a result of this and much else, that country may soon find itself off the special list. So what then? What is Britain's destiny if it can't eat at America's table? And how will America re-make itself in a world where it treats its historic allies so lightly? And what will that mean in turn for the wider Western alliance? This week, our duo go in search of the long story of the Special Relationship - but only for Patrons.

Like so many who serve, Falklands veteran Geoff Stear took trauma away with him - in his case a very particular reaction to the smell of meat. It was so powerful and debilitating that it made his life almost impossible, leading him to injure himself and endanger others as he tried to get away from the perceived danger. On several occasions it left him hospitalised – once with a broken neck - with no recollection of how he had got there. His life hit rock-bottom, until a chance meeting with a stranger changed everything. In this heartwarming episode, Geoff introduces Dr Sian Williams to his unlikely saviour Charlie, whose capacity to intervene when danger threatens has given Geoff back his freedom and sense of worth.Producer: Tom Alban

Who and What exactly are the Royal Marines? And what is there history? They're not the Army. They're not sailors. And yet somehow they've ended up in every war, every landing, every corner of the planet — from storming French ports in the 1700s, to yomping across the Falklands with eighty-pound packs, to creeping up beaches today with drones, fast boats, and sniper teams.   Join my mailing list here - https://redcoathistory.com/newsletter/    Sign up for Patreon here - https://www.patreon.com/RedcoatHistory 

The Falklands and the Wreck Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World The American sealers sought valuable fur seals and elephant seal blubber in the Falkland Islands, a harsh, virtually uninhabited region characterized by constant high winds averaging 18 mph and cold temperatures averaging 49°F in summer. The treeless landscape features tusk grass, which grows up to nine feet tall and yields peat useful for making fires. While the Nanina hunted seals, the Australian transport ship Isabella wrecked on Eagle Island due to Captain George Hickton's ineptitude and drinking. The 54 survivors, including Marines and pardoned convicts, made it ashore, though many were inebriated and convinced they would perish in this desolate location. 1849 FALKLANDS

The High-Risk Sealing Expedition of the Nanina Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World Sealing was a lucrative industry, particularly for the China market, valued for its high-quality fur seal pelts and elephant seal blubber. Charles Barnard, a veteran sealer, proposed a high-risk expedition on the brig Nanina to the Falkland Islands, which Murray and Son backed despite the impending War of 1812. Many merchant vessels remained in port, but Barnard and Murray viewed this as an opportunity to meet pent-up demand. Barnard's crew included four captains, notably diarist Barzillai Pease, and his 63-year-old, infirm father, Valentine Barnard, who was meant to captain the Nanina on its return voyage to New York laden with cargo. They departed from New York just as an embargo took effect. 1833 FALKLANDS

In his infamous BBC Newsnight interview on November 16, 2019, Prince Andrew sat down with journalist Emily Maitlis to address his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the allegations made by Virginia Giuffre (then Roberts), who said she was trafficked to the Duke at age 17. The interview was meant to clear his name but instead became a public disaster. Andrew denied ever meeting Giuffre despite the now-iconic photo showing them together, claiming he had “no recollection” of her and insisting that on the night in question, he had been at a Pizza Express in Woking with his daughter. He also called his relationship with Epstein “very useful” for business and refused to apologize for associating with him, saying his biggest mistake was “not breaking off the friendship sooner.”Public backlash was immediate and brutal. Viewers described his answers as arrogant and tone-deaf, with one of his most ridiculed defenses being that he couldn't have been sweating while dancing with Giuffre because a war injury from the Falklands had caused him to “temporarily lose the ability to sweat.” The interview was widely viewed as catastrophic, leading Andrew to withdraw from royal duties and lose multiple titles and patronages. It permanently damaged his reputation and deepened public disgust with both him and the monarchy, becoming one of the biggest PR disasters in royal history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

As commentators reflect on the wreckage of Prince Andrew's reputation, new reports trace his decades-long slide — from Falklands war hero to tabloid scandal magnet. The Independent and other outlets recount his disastrous Epstein ties, financial controversies, and failed attempts at rehabilitation. Royal watchers now see this as King William's first great triumph, marking a new era of ruthless modernization inside the House of Windsor.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

To mark the centenary of Thatcher's birth, Michael Gove is joined by Charles Moore, her biographer, and Peggy Noonan, speechwriter to Ronald Reagan, to reflect on the chemistry that bound the two conservative leaders. Both outsiders turned reformers, they shared not only ideology but temperament – ‘They were partners in crime,' says Peggy.Yet it wasn't all harmony. As Charles notes, the pair weathered serious rifts – over nuclear weapons, Grenada and the Falklands. Even in disagreement, they ‘wanted the same thing … to defeat the Soviet Union without fighting'. How did they navigate their differences? And what lessons can we learn from their special relationship?Produced by Natasha Feroze and Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Gratitude is a mindset. It's a tool that when deployed in crisis can be essential for reframing your narrative and your understanding. How we find gratitude in crisis, however, is not always obvious, nor is it easy. In this special episode I've looked back into our archive to find five extraordinary and unique situations where gratitude has been the difference between despair and resilience.Today's episode features important learnings from Strictly dancer Amy Dowden; celebrity chef Jon Watts; the late tech-founder and philanthropist Stephanie Shirley; self-help powerhouse Paul Mckenna; and Falklands veteran Simon Weston. LESSONS YOU'LL LEARN:Gratitude + passion = purpose. When you're thankful for something you love, that gratitude transforms into determination that can push you through unimaginable pain.When there's nothing else to be thankful for, clarity can be all you need - A hard truth is better than no truth. Knowing the boundaries of your crisis stops the spiral and gives you a place to start.Even the most devastating experiences can transform you for the better. Crisis can deliver a resilience dividend, dismantling what doesn't serve you and building something more meaningful in its place.Deliberately notice what you have, not what's missing. You get more of what you focus on. Gratitude retrains your brain to see abundance instead of lack during crisis.Be grateful for the chance to contribute. After losing everything, gratitude can simply be thankfulness for time and ability to make a difference. Learn to like yourself for that, not despite your scars.

Argentina Again The Trump administration says it will do “whatever it takes” to rescue the Argentine peso and bond yields, saving buddy Javier Milei from electoral disaster. We do not think the U.S. Treasury can simply dole out money to Milei. If the administration does not want to go to Congress for permission (it generally does not), and if the Mexican bailouts of 1982 and 1995 are indicators, the U.S. Treasury will ask the Argentines to provide collateral of some sort. (The Falklands, maybe?) If so, holders of Argentine sovereign bonds might wonder whether they are entitled to some collateral too. Sovereign bonds have negative pledge clauses, which generally prevent the borrower from creating new secured debt without securing bondholders on equivalent terms. So, we looked at some of the negative pledge clauses in Argentine bonds. They are weird, but don't seem very protective. These are beautiful clauses, folks, BEAUTIFUL. Looks like the U.S. gets collateral, bondholders don't. Total disaster for them! Producer: Leanna Doty

Tyska högsjöflottan var ett allvarligt hot mot det brittiska sjöherraväldet. Från sina hamnar på den nederländska kusten kunde den nå ut på Nordsjön och allvarligt störa den för britterna livsviktiga handeln. Men det fanns ett problem. Tyskarna ville undvika att möta hela den numerärt överlägsna brittiska flottan.I stället inriktade man sig på att försöka slå ut delar av Royal Navy. Britterna å sin sida försökte stänga in den tyska flottan och i andra hand locka ut den för att krossa den. En katt och råtta lek blev resultatet. Under de första krigsåren utkämpades bara mindre strider mellan mindre delar av de båda flottorna.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskutera Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved sjökrigföringen de första krigsåren av första världskriget.Tyskarna kunde hota det brittiska sjöherraväldet på i huvudsak tre sätt. Först med kryssare utanför Europa som opererade och störde den brittiska handeln. För det andra utgjorde den tyska högsjöflottan ett ständigt hot som band i stort sett hela den brittiska sjömakten till Nordsjön och Engelska kanalen. I tredje hand ökade hotet från tyska ubåtar och utvecklades till det kanske effektivaste tyska medlet att slå mot britterna.Tyska kryssare söktes upp och sänktes i de två slagen vid Cornel utanför Chiles kust och Falklandsöarna i november och december 1914. Att komma åt den tyska högsjöflotta blev svårare. Britterna kunde inte som under föregående krig med motståndare på kontinenten blockera den tyska flottan och tvinga den att hålla sig i hamn. Nya vapen som minor och ubåtar utgjorde ett alltför allvarligt hot mot de stora brittiska ytfartygen.Ett anfall på den tyska flottbasen vid ön Helgoland i augusti 1914 ledde inte till att tyskarna tog upp striden. Inte heller striden vid Dogger bank i januari 1915 ledde till ett lyckat resultat. Vid båda dessa tillfällen valde tyskarna att endast möta britterna med sina snabba slagkryssare.Det låsta läget mellan tyskarna och britterna ledde till att tyskarna alltmera övergick till ubåtskrig. Det var effektivt och det fördes utan restriktioner som var en förutsättning för att tillräckligt många handelsfartyg sänktes och påverkade de brittiska krigsansträngningarna. Ett stort problem var att även neutrala fartyg sänktes och inte minst sänkningen av det amerikanska passagerarfartyget Lusitania i maj 1915 fick icke önskvärda konsekvenser. Sänkningen kom att påverka den amerikanska opinionen i riktning mot att gå med i kriget på ententens sida. Det skulle i slutänden leda till tyskarnas nederlag i kriget.

Send us a textIn Your Nature returns with a captivating new episode recorded live from Global BirdFair 2025, where Niall Hatch is joined by two seasoned nature guides with deep ties to the Falkland Islands—Andy Pollard, a Falklands native and expert birder, and Martin Anstee, a conservationist and expedition leader with decades of experience in the region.Together, they explore the unique biodiversity of the Falklands and surrounding South Atlantic islands, from windswept tussac grasslands to rugged coastal cliffs teeming with life. The conversation dives into the islands' remarkable endemic bird species, including the Cobb's Wren and Falkland Steamer Duck, and expands to cover the broader ecological richness of the region—penguins, seals, and the delicate balance of marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Andy and Martin share stories from the field, insights into conservation challenges, and reflections on what makes the Falklands such a special place for wildlife and wildness.The Johnny Rook is the featured Bird of the Week—a bold and intelligent raptor also known as the Striated Caracara. Endemic to the Falklands, this curious bird is famed for its cheeky behavior and problem-solving prowess, often seen investigating backpacks or stealing unattended items. A true symbol of the islands' wild spirit, the Johnny Rook is both a conservation icon and a favourite among visiting birders.A special thanks goes to Charlie Bingham and Oscar Henderson for the invitation to record at Global BirdFair 2025 and for facilitating us at the Whinchat Podcast Stage over the weekend.In Your Nature features Ricky Whelan, Biodiversity Officer with Offaly County Council, and Niall Hatch of BirdWatch Ireland, and is edited by Ann-Marie Kelly.The series is supported by Laois, Offaly, and Westmeath County Councils, the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Heritage Council.For more about BirdWatch Ireland, visit www.birdwatchireland.ie.

Mars 2018. La mission de la Croix-Rouge a été un succès. 95% des soldats ont pu être identifiés. Geoffrey Cardozo et Julio Aro sont nominés pour le prix Nobel de la paix par une université argentine. Deux avions quittent Buenos Aires avec à bord des centaines de membres des familles des disparus, en direction des Falklands selon la dénomination britannique. Au cimetière, que beaucoup découvrent pour la première fois, presque toutes les tombes portent enfin des noms. C'est un très grand moment d'émotion pour tous. Geoffrey Cardozo qui n'a cessé de penser à la douleur des mères, voit l'aboutissement d'une mission.   Avec Julio Aro ancien combattant argentin, Gaby Cociffi, journaliste argentine, le docteur Morris Tidball-Binz de la Croix Rouge internationale et la voix de Jorge Luis Borges lisant un de ses poèmes.   Une enquête d'Anne Brunswic en collaboration avec Yvan Amar. Avec la voix de l'acteur Alain Berlioux (Julio Aro et Borges).

What had converted Maggie Thatcher from something of a lame duck into a front runner for the next British general election?While the economy had begun to pick up, that had been patchy at best, with some parts of Britain suffering badly while the general picture was improving. That's what made me feel then, and leaves me feeling now, that it was the victory in the Falklands that made her more or less unassailable, far more than any economic achievements.The election, when it came, gave her a landslide majority in the Commons, making her the only British Prime Minister in the twentieth century to have improved her majority at her second election. But that disguises the fact that her popular vote actually fell slightly, mostly down to the impact of the SDP-Liberal Alliance, taking far more votes than the Liberals alone at the previous election. That won them a disappointing number of MPs, because of the perversity of the first past the post system, while giving her a huge victory, down to the exactly the same thing.Next, having defeated an enemy without, the Argentinians, she took on what she regarded as a more serious threat, the enemy within. That was the trade union movement and more particularly the miners. When they struck against mine closures, her smart work preparing the ground for resisting even a long strike, combined with the incompetence of a radical but inept leader of the miners' union, Arthur Scargill, she was able to crush the strikers. A second victory in three years. But not against an external enemy. This was against the enemy within, a once proud and powerful working-class movement, now reduced to impotence.Illustration: A scene from the Battle of Orgreave between mineworker pickets and police.

April 1st, 1982 Argentine forces land on the Falkland Islands - a British overseas territory in the south Atlantic ocean. Tensions had been building between Britain and Argentina for some time. Argentina wanted the Islands and were fed up with diplomacy. The British response was to send the largest military strike force since the second world war to the islands. The battle for the Falklands had begun. (PART 2 of 2) Join our PATREON ! (Get extra episodes, research articles and more)

How do you write the history of something as abstract, as placeless, and as vast as the globalization that has remade our world over the past several decades?  If you're Ian Kumekawa, you make those immaterial forces concrete by telling the story of one object: a hulking 94-meter-long steel barge he calls “The Vessel.”  From housing for oil roughnecks in the North Sea, to a barracks for British soldiers in the Falklands, to a jail docked on a Manhattan pier, the Vessel reveals how the murky world of offshore capitalism is in fact embodied in tangible things. It always involves real people living and working in real places.  This one ship, then, helps us to see the too-often-invisible material reality of global capitalism at the close of the twentieth century.
