Gerhard Polt gilt als einer der besten Kabarettisten im deutschsprachigen Raum. Der Münchner geht auf Abschiedstournee in die Schweiz, da er mit seinen 82 Jahren weniger reisen möchte. Im «Tagesgespräch» spricht er über Political Correctness, die Wahlen in Deutschland und den alltäglichen Wahnsinn. Er ist der Grand Old Man des deutschsprachigen Kabaretts und wurde mit allen wichtigen Preisen ausgezeichnet. Gerhard Polt betont, dass Satire das Missverständnis bewusst in Kauf nehme – er riskiere es sogar gerne, missverstanden zu werden. Am 9. Dezember im Volkshaus Zürich und am 10. Dezember im Konzertsaal Solothurn tritt er zum vorerst letzten Mal in der Schweiz auf. Danach plant der 82-Jährige, seine Tourneen deutlich zu reduzieren.

Simon Mayo and Matt Williams welcome music journalist David Hepworth to the studio. His new book - Hope I Get Old Before I Die - looks at how enduring rock icons like Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen and many more have remained in the ever changing music game. They discuss Mick Jagger, Elton John, Paul McCartney and many other rock icons, and just how and why they are still so relevant today. The book is full of great anecdotes, which are endlessly quotable, and is a must read for any music fan. We hope you enjoy the chat ! (here's a little more on the book) When Paul McCartney closed Live Aid in July 1985 we thought he was rock's Grand Old Man. He was forty-three years old. As the forty years since have shown he - and many others of his generation - were just getting started. This was the time when live performance took over from records. The big names of the 60s and 70s exploited the age of spectacle that Live Aid had ushered in to enjoy the longest lap of honour in the history of humanity, continuing to go strong long after everyone else had retired. Hence this is a story without precedent, a story in which Elton John plays a royal funeral, Mick Jagger gets a knighthood, Bob Dylan picks up the Nobel Prize, the Beatles become, if anything, bigger than the Beatles and it's beginning to look as though all of the above will, thanks to the march of technology, be playing Las Vegas for ever.

Two episodes starring Tom Conway as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Bruce as Watson in ABC Radiio's The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Helge Plougmann Nielsen er tilbage i denne uge, hvor vi skal høre historien om at han begyndte at teste traktorer. Det startede med 6-7 maskiner om året, men endte med at blive meget mere! Det har altid været spændende at sætte sig ind i det helt nye på markedet, men det har selvfølgelig også været udfordrende til tider. Kunsten har altid været at kunne ‘stå inde for' de point/anmeldelser der blev givet, så det var retfærdigt og kan bruges som sammenligning. Hvor meget betyder indkøbsprisen fx? Frederik Dalentoft, der er maskinfører, og Claus Henneberg fra Maskinbladet, sidder klar bag rattet. Det skal handle om alt det der sker på en maskinstation - selvom deres syn på hverdagens små udfordringer ikke altid er helt ens. Fra diskussionen om traktorens farve - til hvordan man får parforholdet til at hænge sammen, når man bruger MANGE timer i maskinen! Maskinstationen præsenteres i samarbejde med Jysk Medieproduktion og ECNergy.

The Adventure of the Grand Old Man

On this episode of Talking History, we're looking at Gladstone and Ireland, and finding out how the Grand Old Man became a convert to Home Rule and tried to bring in justice for Ireland. Patrick Geoghegan is joined by Prof Matthew Kelly, Professor of Modern History, University of Northumbria; Dr Andrea Russell, Warden of Gladstone's Library; and Dr Caoimhe Nic Dháibhéid, Faculty Director of Education for Arts and Humanities and Senior Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Sheffield.

After the Phoenix Park murders, there was a bit of a hiatus in Parnell's campaign for Irish Home Rule, while he consolidated his grip on the movement, guiding it firmly into the path of constitutionalism and away from violence. Meanwhile, Gladstone brought in an act to relieve tenant arrears in Ireland, the counterpart to Parnell's work for pacification within the context of the tacit agreement that got him out of prison and came to be known as the ‘Kilmainham Treaty'. Salisbury, for the Conservatives, decided to make a stand against the Arrears Bill. At first, he seemed to be strongly placed, with firm support within the party. But as it became clear that there'd be government money for landlords with tenants in arrears, his backing began to drop away until, leaving him isolated and forced to let the bill through. That weakened him in his competition with Stafford Northcote for the Conservative leadership. Away from Ireland, Britain plunged into some tricky and unfortunate adventures abroad. The First Boer War in South Africa led to humiliating defeat. Then, following a successful campaign to take control in Egypt, General Gordon's mission into Sudan left him beaten and dead. Gladstone's failure to rescue him led to his nickname of GOM (Grand Old Man) giving way to MOG (Murderer of Gordon). Not a good look for a politician soon to campaign for re-election.   Illustration: General Gordon's Last Stand.

Vikram Visana (University of Leicester) speaks at the Oxford South Asian Intellectual History Seminar on 7 March 2023. Uncivil Liberalism studies how ideas of liberty from the colonized South claimed universality in the North. Recovering the political thought of Dadabhai Naoroji, India's pre-eminent liberal, this book focusses on the Grand Old Man's pre-occupation with social interdependence and civil peace in an age of growing cultural diversity and economic inequality. It shows how Naoroji used political economy to critique British liberalism's incapacity for civil peace by linking periods of communal rioting in colonial Bombay with the Parsi minority's economic decline. Innovating an Indian liberalism characterized by labour rights, economic republicanism and social interdependence, Naoroji seeded ‘Western' thinkers with his ideas as well as influencing numerous ideologies in colonial and post-colonial India. In doing so, the book reframes so-called Indian ‘nationalists' as global thinkers. Dr Vikram Visana is Lecturer in Political Theory at the University of Leicester. He was awarded his PhD in the history of Indian Political Thought under the supervision of Chris Bayly at the University of Cambridge in 2016. He has taught at the University of Cambridge, University of Edinburgh, and the University of Huddersfield, and was a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Global History, Freie Universität Berlin. Dr. Visana's research focuses on Indian political thought from the nineteenth century to the present. His book, Uncivil Liberalism: Labour, Capital and Commercial Society in Dadabhai Naoroji's Political Thought (Cambridge University Press, 2022), is an original and radical reinterpretation of the political thought of Dadabhai Naoroji, and studies how ideas of liberty from the colonised South claimed universality in the North. Dr. Visana has also published on Indian iterations of liberalism, republicanism, sovereignty, peoplehood, populism, and political economy. Ongoing research has articles in preparation for leading political theory journals and edited volumes. These new publications consider contemporary Indian political theory from the mid-20th century to the present with a particular focus on authority, multicultural justice, and majoritarianism in Indian conservative political philosophy and Hindutva. Please note that there were some minor technical errors in the PowerPoint Presentation, with some text omissions due to issues with screen-sharing, where some text boxes would not load.

This week on The Literary Life podcast, we bring you another fun Literary Life of…episode. Angelina, Thomas, and Cindy's guest today is Lia Techand, our first international guest on the podcast. Lia, a German born in Kyrgyzstan, currently serving with her husband as a missionary in Australia, along with their two book-loving children. We start off the interview hearing Lia tell about her young life and how she started loving English literature. She talks about her parents and grandparents' reading lives and the legacy of loving books that they left for her. She also shares how literary analysis and symbolism teaching in high school and college challenged her enjoyment of literature. Lia tells about how she stopped reading in university because she was too busy but then started reading again once she became a mother. Lia and Angelina share some examples of crazy literary theory that is taught in university programs, and how that confused and discouraged Lia so much. She also tells the story of finding The Literary Life podcast and taking classes with Angelina. They wrap up the conversation with some encouragement for readers looking for the meaning in the stories they read.  Join us next time for a discussion of Plato's Ion, led by Mr. Banks! Register now for our 5th Annual Literary Life Online Conference coming up April 12-15, 2023, Shakespeare: The Bard for All and for All Time.

Its greatest use to the child is in the everlasting appeal of beauty by which the soul of man is constantly pricked to new hungers, quickened to new perceptions, and so given desire to grow… The storyteller…has, in short, accomplished the one greatest aim of story-telling,–to enlarge and enrich the child's spiritual experience, and stimulate healthy reaction upon it. Of course this result cannot be seen and proved as easily and early as can the apprehension of a fact. The most one can hope to recognize is its promise, and this is found in the tokens of that genuine pleasure which is itself the means of accomplishment. Sara Cone Bryant, from How to Tell Stories to Children Every thirty years a new race comes into the world–a youngster that knows nothing about anything, and after summarily devouring in all haste the results of human knowledge as they have been accumulated for thousands of years, aspires to be thought cleverer than the whole of the past. For this purpose he goes to the university, and takes to reading books–new books, as being of his own age and standing. Everything he reads must be briefly put, must be new, as he is new himself. Then he falls to and criticizes. Arthur Schopenhauer, “On Men of Learning” What has drawn the modern world into being is a strange, almost occult yearning for the future. The modern mind longs for the future as the medieval mind longed for heaven. Wendell Berry, from The Unsettling of America In these days, when Mr. Bernard Shaw is becoming gradually, amid general applause, the Grand Old Man of English letters, it is perhaps ungracious to record that he did once say there was nobody, with the possible exception of Homer, whose intellect he despised to so much as Shakespeare's. He has since said almost enough sensible things to outweigh even anything so silly as that. But I quote it because is exactly embodies the nineteenth-century notion of which I speak. Mr. Shaw had probably never read Home; and there were passages in his Shakespearean criticism that might well raise a doubt about whether he ever read Shakespeare. But the point was that he could not, in all sincerity, see what the world saw in Home and Shakespeare, because what the world saw was not what G. B. S. was then looking for. He was looking for that ghastly thing which Nonconformists call a Message. G. K. Chesterton, from The Soul of Wit: G. K. Chesterton on William Shakespeare Still ist de Nacht by Heinrich Heine Still is the night, and the streets are lone,      My darling dwelt in this house of yore; ‘Tis years since she from the city has flown,      Yet the house stands there as it did before. There, too, stands a man, and aloft stares he,      And for stress of anguish he wrings his hands; My blood runs cold when his face I see,      ‘Tis my own very self in the moonlight stands. Thou double! Thou fetch, with the livid face!      Why dust thou mimic my lovelorn mould, That was racked and rent in this very place      So many a night in the times of old?

Suomi-rockin Grand Old Man kertoo kaikesta kaiken sekä vielä vähän enemmän.

This month, Donald Macleod takes a new look at one of Britain's best loved composers, Ralph Vaughan Williams, as part of Radio 3's 'Vaughan Williams Today' season - marking the 150th anniversary of the composer's birth. Over the course of four weeks and twenty programmes, Donald will be delving into Vaughan Williams' life story and work in intriguing detail, and he'll also be talking to some of the leading authorities on Vaughan Williams to share and explore fresh perspectives on a variety of overlooked and less well known aspects of his life and work, forming a comprehensive and absorbing portrait of a composer whose body of work has had such an enduring impact on British cultural life. In this, the final week of Composer of the Week's landmark series, Donald will focus primarily on the years 1948-1958, the final decade of Vaughan Williams' life. The composer was, by this point recognised as the Grand Old Man of English music, and for a younger generation of British composers had begun to represent the establishment. He was also beginning to feel his age, but was still managing to surprise critics with some of his new works, and he showed little sign of slowing down, continuing to lead a busy life, and launching into new endeavours too: foreign travels which included a major tour of the US, a major house move, and, following the death of Adeline, a second marriage. Donald will also be speaking to Vaughan Williams experts Ceri Owen and Alain Frogley about Adeline Fisher and Ursula Wood, Vaughan Williams two wives, and about Vaughan Williams' legacy, and the changing reception to his music since his death.

Igennem 47 år og 80 (!) produktioner er det dokumentarfilmenes Grand Old Man, der gæster studiet i denne podcast. I 2021 brød Per Wennick med sine principper om at være i baggrunden og blotlagde en fortælling om sin barndom ”Jagten på mig selv”, som rystede seerne. Men i denne podcast går vi ned i maskinrummet på Per Wennicks arbejdsmetode hvor tid er tillid, etikken er i fokus – og natlige spekulationer om produktionernes kvalitet får Per Wennick til at trave over gulvet.Og jo; den elegante mand fortæller også forbløffende fortællinger!Læn dig tilbage og nyd den rolige lydside fra manden der har skildret danskernes billedside.

Christoph Blocher, «the Grand Old Man» der Schweizer Politik attestiert selbst der Linken, dass sie der Schweiz manchmal gutgetan hat. In der Sozialpolitik etwa hätten die Bürgerlichen wohl gewisse Nöte und Schwächen der einfachen Leute nicht gesehen. Umso mehr ist er deshalb überzeugt, dass es immer gut gewesen war, die SP in der Regierung zu wissen. «Ich glaube an die Konkordanz. Wir Bürgerlichen sollten nicht allein regieren.» Auch die Leistung der SP während des Krieges anerkennt Blocher: «Sie waren Patrioten.» Was ja so weit ging, dass die SP die Armee nicht mehr bekämpfte, wofür sie dann auch in den Bundesrat kam. Schliesslich glaubt Blocher, dass ein Verdienst der SP auch darin liege, nie derart «extrem» geworden zu sein – wie andere linke Parteien in Europa.

Jeffery Ellis began collecting golf clubs at an early age and found that the literature that was available for up-and-coming collectors of antique golf instruments was sorely lacking. What is an ambitious and enterprising person to do, but set one's mind to creating the most definitive and authoritative publication of antique golf clubs and their history. Nothing stops Jeff Ellis—whether on an auction floor or in achieving his goals. Heck, he even created his own publishing company, Zephyr Productions, to make his dream a reality in 1997. Ellis has since published a two volume expanded edition of The Clubmaker's Art which features over 400 new images and extensive new information. Many exceedingly rare and historically important clubs have been added to every chapter in the book. The section on fakes and replicas is five times as large as that in the first edition. Mr. Ellis also recently published the history of Ping by personal invitation of the Solheim family (And The Putter Went ... PING). Ellis runs his own golf club auction site where we accepts consignments of authentic golf collectibles. His painstaking research and lifelong obsession is a gift to all hickory golf enthusiasts, now for time everlasting. He also published The Golf Club which features rare treasures made by Scotland's Old Tom Morris known as "The Grand Old Man of Golf" and Hugh Philp often called the Stradivarius of clubmakers. You will also find modern masterpieces by Ping, Spalding, Callaway, MacGregor, Titleist, Nike and others. In this episode, we discuss his early years in collecting, how prices and competition has changed in the last 30 years, and a few of the special clubs featured in his nearly 800 page compendium. The Clubmaker's Art is a must-have for every hickory golf club collector!

This episode explores one of the most respected Marines in Marine Corps history – Archibald Henderson. Henderson served as the commandant for 38 years; the longest anyone held that position. This length of service earned him the nickname, “Grand Old Man of the Marine Corps.” This motivator will be in charge for the next few decades, and this episode will set the stage by introducing the fifth commandant of the Marine Corps (or 4th, if you’re counting acting commandants), who will further define the reputation of the United States Marine Corps.

Er ist der Grand Old Man des deutschsprachigen Kabaretts und wurde mit allen wichtigen Preisen geehrt. Dass Gerhard Polt dabei immer versucht hat, sich selber nicht zu wichtig nehmen, darin liegt wohl das Geheimnis für ein gutes Leben.  Sein waches Interesse gilt den Menschen. Was beschäftigt sie? Worüber regen sie sich auf? Gerhard Polt ist nicht nur ein grandioser Beobachter, er redet überall mit den Leuten und verwertet alles in seinen Programmen. Warum man sich nur über Dinge lustig machen kann, die man kennt, das erklärt er im Gespräch mit Anita Richner.

Minu vestluskaaslaseks on täna 80. juubelit tähistav, eesti kunsti grand old man, kunstnik Jüri Arrak. Jüri on suurema osa oma elust elanud küll Eestis, väikse vahelepõikega Peterburis, kuid tema mõttemaailm on piirideta, ning tema teosed nii universaalsed, et patt oleks tema kogemustest mitte õppida. Selles episoodis räägime Kuidas on ta säilitanud oma lapseliku uudishimu? Jüri eluperioodi Peterburis ja Viipuris Nõukogude sõjaväes, mis kujunes omamoodi tööorjuseks. Kuidas mäetehnikumi haridusega Jüri Arrakust sai geoloogi asemel kunstnik, ning mis rolli mängis selles tema vend? Kuidas leidis Jüri oma isikupärase stiili, mille järgi on kõik tema maalid äratuntavad? Mis teeb teda õnnelikuks ning millised on olnud erinevad loomeetapid tema elus? President Lennart Meri portree saamisloost. Millised mõjutused on isiklikul elul olnud tema loomingule? Millal muutub bioloogiline elu vaheetapiks ning tehisintellekt võtab üle? Mida ta soovib Eesti 100. sünnipäevaks? Liitu uudiskirjaga www.globaalsedeestlased.org, et uus saade jõuaks iga nädal sinu postkasti!

“Vanu kirju ei tohi kunagi redigeerida. Sa ei saa oma elulugu muuta. Sa ei saa oma mõtteid muuta. Pole mõtet ennast värvida parematesse värvidesse kui sa oled.” Minu nimi on Rainer Sternfeld ja see siin on kaheksas episood podcastist “Globaalsed eestlased”, kus minu eesmärk on luua mälupilt märkimisväärsetest eestlastest nii kodus kui mujal maailmas. Minu vestluskaaslaseks on täna 80. juubelit tähistav, eesti kunsti grand old man, kunstnik Jüri Arrak. Jüri on suurema osa oma elust elanud küll Eestis, väikse vahelepõikega Peterburis, kuid tema mõttemaailm on piirideta, ning tema teosed nii universaalsed, et patt oleks tema kogemustest mitte õppida.  Meie vestlus puudutab laia spektrit erinevaid teemasid: kuidas on ta säilitanud oma lapseliku uudishimu? Jüri eluperioodi Peterburis ja Viipuris Nõukogude sõjaväes, mis kujunes omamoodi tööorjuseks; kuidas mäetehnikumi haridusega Jüri Arrakust sai geoloogi asemel kunstnik, ning mis rolli mängis selles tema vend? kuidas leidis Jüri oma isikupärase stiili, mille järgi on kõik tema maalid äratuntavad? mis teeb teda õnnelikuks ning millised on olnud erinevad loomeetapid tema elus? president Lennart Meri portree saamisloost; millised mõjutused on isiklikul elul olnud tema loomingule? millal muutub bioloogiline elu vaheetapiks ning tehisintellekt võtab üle? mida ta soovib Eesti 100. sünnipäevaks? Siin on minu vestlus globaalse eestlase, eesti kunsti raudvara ning suure inimese, Jüri Arrakuga, kellele ma soovin tugevat tervist ja jätkuvat elurõõmu. Head kuulamist!

At the start of The Grand Old Man of Baseball: Connie Mack in His Final Years, 1932-1956, the third volume of Norman L. Macht’s biography of baseball legend Connie Mack, the Philadelphia A’s which he owned and managed had just lost the 1931 World Series to the St. Louis Cardinals. Though Mack would run the team for another eighteen seasons, never again would they win a pennant during his tenure. Macht chronicles the team’s struggles during the Great Depression to stay afloat, as Mack was forced to sell off his best players simply to meet his obligations. By the end of the decade, the improving economic conditions and the adoption of night games improved the financial picture, only for the outbreak of World War II to leave baseball hobbled once more. By the time the A’s contended for the pennant again in1948, the 86-year-old Mack was slowed by strokes and on the verge of a long-anticipated retirement, yet still managing from the dugout as best he could. Macht shows that, despite Mack’s willingness to innovate and experiment, his failure to embrace the farm system early on doomed his team to seasonal struggles to post winning records, while his decision to pass along management of the club to his sons Roy and Earle nearly bankrupted the organization and led to their move out of Philadelphia just a few years later.

In the week leading up to our celebration of International Women's Day, a series of The Essay celebrating five women who have been unacknowledged movers and shakers in the world of classical music down the ages. Each of these women overcame societal expectations or personal adversity to have real influence on the music of their day, and subsequently ours.We tend to remember William Ewart Gladstone as a reformer who wanted to pacify Ireland. We know that Queen Victoria preferred Disraeli's flattery to Gladstone's earnest lectures. And we've heard that this long-serving Prime Minister relaxed by cutting down trees on the Hawarden estate. What we don't imagine about this Grand Old Man is his sensuality. In fact, W.E. Gladstone was passionately musical and he owed much of the pleasure he gained from exploring his musical tastes, as well as the moral purpose he derived from it, to the influence of his daughter Mary. As Dr Phyllis Weliver explains, Mary was a pioneering Private Secretary to the Prime Minister, one who advised on ecclesiastical appointments with a strong bias towards those who shared her sense of the moral purpose of music. She was also a subtle master of 'soft diplomacy' in the way she brought music making to Downing Street and the heart of her father's government.

Aamun kolme päivää vanha ihmelapsi Freja syntyi Mälarin sairaalassa Eskilstunassa. Professori Outi Hovatta kertoo mikä ihme on kysymyksessä. Pirkko Sinkkonen on sisukkaasti vanhusten asialla. Kimmo Louhelainen musiikin Grand Old Man aamun vieraana. Kimmo Louhelainen on vaikuttanut kolmen maan musiikkielämään kolmella eri kielellä.  Hän on musiikkilegenda jo eläessään.  Kimmo  aloitti 16-vuotiaana soittamisen  vanhalla ja käytetyllä haitarilla Vaasassa, soitti 50-luvulla jatsahtavaa tanssimusiikkia lähinnä Vaasan alueella, jossa radioitu versio on YLEN kokoomalevyllä Suomalainen jazz 1929-1959. Osa 3. Vuodet 1948-1959.    I can't Believe That You're in Love with Me. Ruotsissa hän soitti eri kokoonpanoissa Ludvikassa, Falunissa ja erityisesti Eskilstunassa, jonne hän muutti  opskeltuaan ensin Pariisissa tietokoneita. Varsinkin ruotsinsuomalainen musiikkielämä kasvoi ja kehittyi Kimmon siipien suojissa kovalla työllä. Suomen ja Espanjan vuosien jälkeen Kimmo on palannut vaimonsa Solveigin kanssa takaisin Ruotsiin ja Uppsalaa, jossa toinen pojista asuu perheineen. Arja Claesson tapasi Kimmo Louhelaisen 24.11.2013 Eskilstunassa   ennen suurta konserttia, jossa Kimmo sai nauttia tekemiensa artistien rautaisesta esiintymisestä.
