What happens to an artist when the performance ends?In this episode, filmmaker Rajaditya Banerjee takes us into the largely unknown world of the Nachni dancers of Purulia, West Bengal through his documentary Acchutt.The Nachnis have preserved a traditional folk dance form for generations, but behind the colour, music and performance lies a far more difficult reality — social stigma, caste discrimination, economic dependence, patriarchy and the abandonment of women once they grow older.Rajaditya spent almost a decade researching and building relationships with the women before making Acchutt. He shares how he encountered the Nachni community, why they initially questioned his intentions, and what he discovered about their lives beyond the stage.The conversation also goes much further.Rajaditya speaks about his unusual journey from theatre and corporate life in Finland to filmmaking, growing up in a family connected to cinema, and how the death of his filmmaker brother eventually led him to pick up the camera.We explore why he chooses to tell stories that mainstream media often overlooks — from disappearing languages in Lost for Words, to invisible water carriers in Waterwala, and questions of mortality in Death of Death.The conversation then turns to a larger concern: Why does documentary cinema struggle to find audiences in India?Funding, distribution, OTT platforms, film festivals and the lack of a sustainable ecosystem for independent filmmakers all come under discussion.Rajaditya also offers a candid assessment of Bengali and regional cinema, arguing that storytelling needs to return to the centre rather than star power, hype and market-driven formulas.And finally, what does he tell young filmmakers who want to enter this difficult profession?His answer is simple: keep learning, stay hungry, and be willing to sacrifice.Because filmmaking, for him, is ultimately about having a story that demands to be told.KEY TAKEAWAYS- The Nachni tradition survives despite the social exclusion of its practitioners.- The women behind the performance often remain invisible once the music stops.- Caste, patriarchy and economic dependence intersect in the lives of Nachni women.- Folk traditions can disappear when institutions fail to document, - recognise and support them.- Documentary filmmaking can bring attention to stories ignored by mainstream media.- India's documentary ecosystem faces major problems with funding, distribution and visibility.- OTT platforms have not necessarily solved the accessibility problem for independent documentaries.- Independent filmmakers need sustainable avenues to reach audiences in India rather than relying primarily on international platforms.- Regional cinema needs to put storytelling and strong themes ahead of hype and star power.- Filmmaking may be difficult financially, but for those who genuinely have stories to tell, the struggle can be worthwhile.-----------------------------------------------------------✅ Subscribe To Our Channel: www.youtube.com/c/TheMohuaShow Stay updated!
Was King Arthur real? or are we looking at history all wrong?If you think finding a 6th-century tomb solves the Arthurian legend, think again. Medievalist, artist, and author Dr. Amy Jeffs (author of Arthur: A New Life) joins host Paul Bavill to dismantle the obsession with "smoking gun" popular history. From giant-descended queens to shape-shifting wizards, the true power of King Arthur lies not in a single dead warlord, but in centuries of evolving folklore, political propaganda, and captivating mystery.In this episode, we explore:The Gloucester Cathedral Apprentice Bracket Myth: How medieval art history misreads grief vs. miracles.The Real Roots of Arthur: 9th-century Breton charters, early Welsh poetry, and monster-slaying heroes.Brute Chronicles & Propaganda: How medieval kings twisted myth to justify foreign conquests.The Dark Origin of the Round Table: Food fights, brutal executions, and baronial politics.Forgotten Women of Arthurian Legend: Morgan le Fay, Guinevere's lineage, and Merlin's sister.Stop reducing complex legends to simple answers—embrace the magic of historical mystery!Guest Info & Book Links:Buy the Book: Order Arthur: A New Life via the History Rage Bookshop: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781529431681Website: https://www.amyjeffshistoria.com/Instagram: @amyjeffs_authorLive Event: See Dr. Amy Jeffs live at the Gloucester History Festival (12th–20th September).

Women over 55 are currently the fastest-growing demographic experiencing homelessness in Australia, with many finding themselves facing housing crises due to rising living costs, illness, or relationship breakdowns. Brisbane charity The Forgotten Women is working to change that—and Jade Fitzgerald has been supporting The Forgotten Women project for four years, raising funds by participating in its Live Like Her Challenge which sees participants spend a night sleeping in their cars—and throwing some fabulous drag bingo fundraisers along the way! Jade joins us today, with her brother Vern and on the other line we have Brisbane's own iconic entertainer Abril LaTrene! Welcome to Joy 94.9, Jade, and Abril! ‘ Four years ago, Jade wanted to support a charity where she could make a tangible impact. As a buyer’s agent who helps people secure property, learning that over 40,000 women over 55 in Queensland face housing insecurity hit home. She realised how quickly life can unravel through illness, relationship breakdown, family violence, or rent hikes. The Two-Pronged Solution (Micro-Grants + Brick & Mortar): Immediate Relief / Micro-Grants: Small intervention amounts can prevent homelessness entirely—such as a $50/week rental top-up to bridge housing costs or a fuel voucher so a woman can travel to work and keep her income. Long-Term Housing: Building purpose-built housing developments in Redland City, which is located between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The Live Like Her Challenge: Jade is in her 4th consecutive year sleeping in her car for the challenge, joined by Vern (2nd year). While a single night in a car cannot replicate chronic homelessness, it offers a sobering window into the vulnerability of having no safe door to lock. The Fundraiser (Glitter Balls & Bingo Calls): Abril LaTrene is adding drag flair and entertainment to lower entry barriers and bring the community together for fundraising. The post Sat, 22nd August, 2026: ‘Live Like Her Challenge;’ Jade Fitzgerald – Founder of The Ideal Buyer's Agency; Abril LaTrene– Drag Artist & Host of Glitter Balls & Bingo Calls appeared first on Saturday Magazine.
We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on Ruth 1:1–22, which is the beginning of the story of Ruth and Naomi. The sermon, however, centers on Ruth's sister-in-law Orpah, who quickly fades from the story. In this sermon we wonder if, perhaps, there is to be something gained by focusing on Orpah's experience? Perhaps she has been too quickly overlooked in Christian history and interpretation. And her experience might offer us deep wisdom for our own lives and decisions today. Hope it will be a meaningful word to you this week.To find out more about the sermon series you can visit: https://www.williamsburgbaptist.com/summer2026.html.To find out more about our church, you can head on over to www.williamsburgbaptist.com.

4BC Breakfast has partnered with Teresa Reed, founder of The Forgotten Women, to shed light on Australia’s alarming homelessness crisis among women over 55 - whose average age seeking help is actually 72. To raise funds for permanent housing builds and vital rental top-ups, listeners are urged to pay $49.95 to join the 4BC team and sleep in their cars at Brisbane Airport on September 3 for the 'Live Like Her Challenge.'See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on Judges 4:1–24, which is the story of Deborah's reign as judge of Israel, along with Jael's brief but violent encounter with Sisera. It's part of our summer sermon series "Rediscovering Forgotten Women of the Bible." In this sermon we wonder what Deborah and Jael's stories have to say about "biblical womanhood," and if perhaps it's a bit wider and more impactful than we've previously believed. Hope it is a challenging and encouraging word to you this week.To find out more about the sermon series you can visit: https://www.williamsburgbaptist.com/summer2026.html.To find out more about our church, you can head on over to www.williamsburgbaptist.com.

Since the inception of the Secret Service Bureau back in 1909, women have worked at the very heart of British secret intelligence - yet their contributions have been all but written out of history. Now, drawing on private and previously-classified documents, leading historian Claire Hubbard-Hall brings their gripping true stories to life in Her Secret Service: The Forgotten Women of British Intelligence (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2024). From encoding orders and decrypting enemy messages to penning propaganda and infiltrating organisations, the women of British intelligence played a pivotal role in both the First and Second World Wars. Prepare to meet the true custodians of Britain's military secrets, from Kathleen Pettigrew, personal assistant to the Chief of MI6 Stewart Menzies, who late in life declared 'I was Miss Moneypenny, but with more power', to Jane Archer, the very first female MI5 officer who raised suspicions about the Soviet spy Kim Philby long before he was officially unmasked and Winifred Spink, the first female officer ever sent to Russia in 1916. In Her Secret Service, Hubbard-Hall rescues these silenced voices and those of many other fascinating women from obscurity to provide a definitive account of women's contributions to the history of the intelligence services. The book, now in paperback, includes a postscript based on a new treasure trove of documents. Her Secret Service won the 2025 Dr Polly Corrigan Book prize. The Prize aims to recognise scholarship within the realm of intelligence and security, written by female scholars and/or about women. It encourages scholars to go beyond traditional lines of inquiry and explore how women contributed to and participated in the making of the ‘Secret World'. Learn more about your ad choices.

We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on 1 Kings 21:1–16, which is the story of Jezebel, Ahab, and Naboth's Vineyard. It's the first in our summer sermon series "Rediscovering Forgotten Women of the Bible." In this sermon we wonder if, perhaps, Jezebel has been mis-remembered, and that her reputation has vastly outpaced what's actually in scripture. After all, have you ever met someone named Jezebel?

This week Matthew Harffy and Justin Hill are joined by Sunday Times bestselling author Elodie Harper — journalist, classicist, and one of the most exciting voices writing historical fiction today.Elodie's Wolf Den trilogy brought the women of Pompeii's infamous brothel roaring back to life, and her stunning new standalone Boudicca's Daughter follows Solina — the unnamed, overlooked daughter of Britain's most iconic warrior queen — from the chaos of the Boudiccan rebellion to the glittering, treacherous court of Nero's Rome.We talk about what it means to write from the perspective of history's silenced women, the surprisingly complex historical record behind the Iceni rebellion, and the fascinating question of what we can and can't know about Celtic Britain. Elodie also reveals why she chose Tacitus's single phrase — that the ancient Britons "made no distinction between the sexes when choosing commanders" — as a window into an entirely different world, and why she included human sacrifice despite her sympathies lying firmly with the Iceni.Plus: the spark for The Wolf Den (courtesy of historian Dan Jones), the emotional experience of visiting Pompeii's only surviving purpose-built brothel at dusk, the craft decision to write Solina's sections in first person present tense, and why even the villain of the piece — Roman general Paulinus — ended up being surprisingly sympathetic.Boudicca's Daughter is out in paperback on 23rd April.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/RockPaperSwordsPodcastAll episodes: https://linktr.ee/RockPaperSwords
The "Forgotten Women of Literature" series continues with a look at Aemilia Bassano Lanyer (1569-1645), the first Englishwoman to publish a volume of poetry, the protofeminist Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum (1611), which tells the story of Christ's crucifixion from a woman's perspective. In addition to her many accomplishments and incredible life story, Lanyer has tantalizingly close connections to William Shakespeare, causing Jacke (and other scholars) to examine whether she might have been the inspiration for the Dark Lady of Shakespeare's sonnets.

In today's conversation Bremond Berry MacDougall and Lisa Endo Cooper, the duo behind Quite Literally Books talk about their heritage press republishing forgotten works by women authors. Lisa and Bremond share their journey of starting a heritage press without prior business experience. They describe the steep learning curve of navigating production, marketing, and sales. The physical design of their books reflects meticulous attention to detail. They use premium Munken paper milled in Europe, custom typography by designer Louise Fili, and lay-flat dispersion binding that allows one-handed reading without breaking the spine. Some book covers feature work by artist Anthony Russo. Their literary mission centers on republishing works that reveal how little has changed in over a century regarding issues of gender, race, and sexuality. They navigate the complex legacies of authors, acknowledging that women can be both progressive and flawed. Their first three releases explored the theme of home. The November release includes Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a cookbook from the 1890s, and all examining themes of home and domestic power.

HOUR TWO: Emma Southon explores forgotten women of the Empire. Julia, daughter of Augustus, served as a marital conduit for heirs (Agrippa, Tiberius) before being exiled for public affairs and later starved. Other profiles include British Queens Cartimandua and Boudica, entrepreneur Julia Felix, military family woman Sulpicia Lepidina, and Christian martyr Perpetua. 1802 ROMAN WOMEN
During World War II, a groundbreaking group of elite female aviators flew over 60 million miles in every type of military aircraft, from the P-51 Mustang to the B-17 Flying Fortress. They were the Women's Air Force Service Pilots (WASP), and after proving that women belonged in the cockpit, their program was abruptly disbanded and their contributions were erased from history for decades. How did this happen? In this episode, we uncover the hidden history of these forgotten pioneers with bestselling author Heather B. Moore.Heather B. Moore's meticulously researched biographical fiction novel, the Lady Flyer book, brings to life the incredible story of Nancy Harkness Love, the quiet, lead-by-example director who founded the program. We explore the immense challenges these WWII female pilots faced, not just in mastering dangerous aircraft, but in battling constant bureaucratic red tape, gender bias, and political opposition. This is the story of how over 1,000 women answered their nation's call, only to be told to go home so men could have their jobs back.In this deep dive, Heather B. Moore reveals the fascinating details behind the WASP program. We discuss the critical difference between the WAFS (Women's Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron) and the broader Women's Air Force Service Pilots (WASP) organization, exploring their 60-million-mile mission to ferry newly built warplanes from factories to air bases across the country. The conversation also delves into the complex and often contentious relationship between the program's two most prominent leaders: the introverted and highly respected Nancy Harkness Love and the aggressive, self-promoting Jackie Cochran, who ran the training division. Heather shares insights from her extensive research, including stories of unimaginable bravery, heartbreaking tragedy, and the internal politics that nearly grounded the program before it could take flight. We also touch upon the shocking dismissal of the WASP in 1944 and their long, arduous fight to gain official veteran status decades later, a testament to the perseverance of these remarkable women.About Our Guest:Heather B.

St. Paul had a female traveling companion but we never hear about her; women suffering at all times of their lives from menstrual cramps to menopause are told by untrained doctors that it's in their heads, and even when mice are the subjects of medical experiments, they are almost always male. Long accustomed to taking a back seat and suffering in silence, women are increasingly speaking up for better treatment at the hands of medicine. Two of them from different generations, Abby Lorch, a UAlbany student, and Liz Seegert, a long-time health journalist talk about what should be done — and their despair that Health Secretary RFK will do it.Abby Lorch is a 21-year-old UAlbany student graduating with a journalism degree and a law and philosophy minor. She plans to attend Albany Law School starting in fall 2025. She has always been interested in women's issues, and reporting on the university community and the Capital Region has given her insight into how these issues affect her neighbors.Liz Seegert is an award-winning, freelance journalist with more than 30 years experience writing for magazines, newspapers, radio and TV news, digital, PR, corporate, government, non-profit, and educational institutions. Her work has appeared in national, regional and local consume and trade outlets. She has done numerous fellowships with organizations such as the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, the center for Health Policy and Media Engagement, and the Gerontological Society of America. She is active in the Journalism & Women Symposium and is an instructor at the Empire State College.

This is a history of women who caused outrage, led armies in rebellion, wrote poetry; who lived independently or under the thumb of emperors. Told with humor and verve as well as a deep scholarly background, A Rome of One's Own highlights women overlooked and misunderstood, and through them offers a fascinating and groundbreaking chronicle of the ancient world. 1905 Pompeii
