In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with historian Julie Summers about her extensive work in uncovering the hidden corners of 20th-century British history. They discuss her approach to storytelling, the evolution of British Vogue, the significant contributions of the Women's Institute during World War II, and her personal connections to historical narratives. Julie shares insights from her research and the impact of her work on understanding British history. Links Julie Summers' Books on Amazon Julie's Books on Bookshop.org Julie Summer Official Website Home Fires (JustWatch) Takeaways Julie Summers specializes in uncovering untold stories of ordinary people during extraordinary times. Good history is rooted in storytelling, making facts relatable and engaging. The Women's Institute played a crucial role during World War II, contributing significantly to the war effort. British Vogue has evolved from a fashion magazine to a chronicle of British identity. Julie emphasizes the importance of accuracy and detail in historical writing. The requisitioning of country houses during WWII transformed British country house culture. Jam Busters highlights the overlooked contributions of women in wartime. Julie's personal connections to historical figures enrich her storytelling. The impact of social media has changed the role of print magazines like Vogue. Julie is excited about her upcoming book on the Women of D-Day. Sound Bites 1. On the power of details: "I'm totally fixated about the weather—in fact, I'm known in the family as the biggest weather nerd of all times. If I'm describing a scene that happened on a certain day, I will go right back to the original meteorological forecasts." 2. On discovering Our Uninvited Guests: "The chap at the hotel said, 'No, no, no, this hotel was taken over by the Royal Air Force in the war. And the George down there, that was overtaken by the post office because the British government, had Britain been attacked and invaded, were going to send the government and all the major offices of state up to Harrogate.'" 3. On finding Sandy Irvine's boot: "Jimmy Chin said, 'Yeah, it had a foot in it in the sock. And the sock had a name tape on it. And the name tape said A.C. Irvine.' And I went, 'Oh my God, you found my great uncle's foot.' And I literally had not expected it." 4. On the WI's massive contribution: "They made 12 million pounds of jam and preserves during the Second World War—a third of the quantity of jam that was consumed. And all of that was from fruit that they'd either picked from the hedgerows or produced in their own gardens." 5. On Harrods' first escalator (1898): "Management was so concerned about the potential for customer accidents or panic that they stationed an employee at the top offering cognac and smelling salts to those who had completed the 'ordeal.'" 6. On researching her grandfather: "He said, 'Well, like most Englishmen, I can write the story of my sex life on the back of a postage stamp.' And I thought, 'Whew, off the hook!'" 7. On why women's contributions were overlooked: "Shall I say what I really think? It's because they're women. I think the women's voices were drowned out after the Second World War by the incredible stories of heroism of men." 8. On the tragic "Brownies" at Brockett Hall: "The women who were giving birth to illegitimate children were known as the Brownies, and they were set to work in the kitchens at Brockett Hall until they went into second stage labor. They were dressed in brown uniforms—that's why they were called the Brownies. I found that very chilling." 9. On Home Fires being canceled: "The new writer asked the exec producer, 'So how many series are we working towards?' And she said, 'Six, maybe nine.' And three days later, I got a phone call to say, 'We've been cut.' And I let out a big F-bomb." 10. On women and D-Day: "I stood up in front of these historians and said, 'How many women do you think were directly involved in the planning for D-Day?' One man said 100. A woman said 3,000. And I said, 'No. 348,000 British women were involved in the planning for D-Day and more than that of American women.'"

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the construction of the Liptovská Mara dam. On one hand, the reservoir offers numerous opportunities for recreation, water sports, or relaxing by the water with views of the Tatras. On the other hand, this water reservoir on the Váh River also carries the story of 13 villages and their inhabitants who lost their homes due to its construction. I discussed this darker side of Liptovská Mara with writer Zuzana Líšková, author of the radio play From the Bottom of the Liptov Sea. We will stay in the Liptov region in the second part of the program, where we explore the story of Liptovský Mikuláš native, writer Mária Rázusová-Martáková.

They discuss the significance of Blenheim Palace, its new exhibitions, the challenges of conserving historical garments, and the evolution of public engagement in heritage conservation. Carmen shares insights into the Ladies of Blenheim exhibition, the legacy of Winston Churchill, and future projects aimed at enhancing visitor experiences. Links Blenheim Palace Official Website Ladies of Blenheim Exhibition Meet the Collections Team Great British Houses - Blenheim Palace John 1st Duke of Marlborough Great Britons Winston Churchill Takeaways Blenheim Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a significant historical landmark. The Ladies of Blenheim exhibition highlights the fashion and stories of remarkable women in the palace's history. Conservation of historical garments requires meticulous care and innovative techniques. Public engagement has evolved significantly over the past 75 years at Blenheim Palace.

The palace's collection includes unique items that reflect its rich heritage and history. Carmen Alvarez's journey from welcome team supervisor to conservation manager showcases the importance of passion and dedication in heritage conservation. Sound Bites 1. The Lost Dress Discovery (26:15-26:45) "Everyone thought it was lost, but it was in there all along. Just everyone was picturing it white. And because of course the silk with the time and damage, light damage and everything has turned that ivory color... So I found the lost dress. So for me that is something that I hope to be remembered by." 2. The Reused Coronation Gown (5:53-6:10) "After the war, the country was coming out, the clothes rationing. So she didn't want to spend too much money on new garments and everything around it. So she decided to repurpose and reuse what was worn by Consuelo Vanderbilt in 1911 and worn twice." 3. Conservation Challenges (8:08-8:25) "We will never be a museum. We are a living space. So as much as you want to control the environment, environmental levels, like the temperature, humidity, the light levels... When it's hot, we need to open windows." 4. The "Angriest Curator" Method (15:12-15:19) "Normally people say that the best way of conserving things is having the angriest curator shouting at people. So maybe that helps as well." 5. First Thing After Closing (28:43-28:50) "The first thing, hoovering, to be 100% honest. This is so important, actually. The guides... they grab the hoovers and they hoover the whole palace." 6. Winston's Best Decisions (35:53-36:05) "He said that he made the two best decisions of his life, that Blenheim would want to be born and the other one to marry, because he proposed to Clementine, his wife, at the Temple of Diana at Blenheim Palace." 7. Heritage Belongs to Everyone (39:04-39:15) "I'm a believer that heritage does not belong to one single person or a group of people. Heritage is something that is a witness of the past, of the history of a group, a nation." 8. The Roof Reality Check (40:28-41:03) "You walk into the building and you think, my God, this place is incredible. It's so well preserved... But you would never know how many buckets were holding the leaks, the water filtration coming from the actual roof." 9. The Strong 10th Duchess (11:52-12:05) "It's funny because her husband wrote that she was a female general while he was only a captain. I think that represents her character. She was very much involved with the family, with the local community, with the charity." 10. Making History Accessible (45:27-45:40) "We want to do it in a way that we know our guests are gonna enjoy... how can we share the history of Blenheim in different ways. Rather than a printed board, let's do it in a different way."

When we talk about the Second Front, most of us think of the Allied invasion of Northwest Europe—D-Day, June 1944. But in his new book, Second Front: Anglo-American Rivalry and the Hidden Story of the Normandy Campaign, historian Professor Marc Milner offers a different perspective. What if the real second front wasn't in Normandy, but in Washington? Milner argues that while Britain fought alongside the United States on the battlefields of Europe, it was also engaged in a very different kind of struggle across the Atlantic: a political and diplomatic battle to retain its influence over an increasingly dominant America. By the time Allied troops landed in France, the United States had not only become the senior partner in the alliance but had begun reshaping the postwar world, often at the expense of British interests.  But as we'll hear, this wasn't just about wartime politics or military planning. The roots of Anglo-American rivalry ran much deeper, stretching back to the way each nation remembered the First World War. Joining me to discuss all this is Professor Marc Milner.

We revisit the origin stories behind Marvels and Kingdom Come, and reveal a near-miss — when Alex almost helped design a new Gatchaman team for an American rights holder. And for fans of Fantastic Four, Alex shares the story behind his Earth X visions of Marvel's First Family, and how it continues to influence his creative work.

Go behind the music and uncover the secrets of one of the world's most iconic supergroups. In this episode, award-winning Swedish music journalist Jan Gradvall joins us to reveal The Story of ABBA, drawing from his new book, "The Story of ABBA: Melancholy Undercover." We explore the fascinating human drama, the cultural clashes, and the surprising musical genius that propelled a band from Sweden to global domination. What is the shocking truth behind their happiest songs? Jan Gradvall, who has interviewed all four members, pulls back the curtain on the legends.From their formation as two couples who stumbled into a magical sound, to their complex journey through the pop world, this is The Story of ABBA as you've never heard it before. We start with their detailed ABBA Eurovision History, from the 1973 competition they lost in Sweden with "Ring Ring" to their game-changing 1974 victory with "Waterloo"—a glam-rock-infused pop track that broke the mold. Jan explains how the band faced intense opposition from the ABBA Progg Movement, a left-wing cultural force in Sweden that despised their commercial, capitalist sound and questioned their art. This deep dive uncovers the core of their unique sound, a concept Benny Andersson calls "Melancholy Undercover." Learn how the long, dark Scandinavian winters infused their music with a deep Swedish Melancholy in Music, creating a bittersweet feeling even in their most upbeat anthems, a sound rooted in Swedish folk traditions and Benny's accordion.Beyond the cultural context, we explore the incredible and often overlooked talent of Agnetha Fältskog, musician. While many focused on her looks, Agnetha was the only member who could read music, an accomplished classical piano player, and a prolific songwriter in her own right. Jan Gradvall shares insights from his personal interviews with all four members, revealing why Björn Ulvaeus can't remember being on tour and how the rhythm for "Take a Chance on Me" came from the sound of him jogging. We discuss how the band never officially broke up, the 90s revival sparked by the gay community and artists like Kurt Cobain, and the origins of global phenomena like the musical Chess and the stage and film sensation Mamma Mia. This is the definitive inside look at the band's journey, their conflicts, their creative process, and how they became more popular today than ever before.ABOUT OUR GUEST:Jan Gradvall is an award-winning writer and one of Sweden's most respected music journalists. With over 40 years of experience, he has cultivated a close journalistic relationship with ABBA, having been the first journalist to conduct in-depth interviews with all four members for a single story.

 For many families, homelessness is no longer someone else's problem. It is right around the corner, a real threat in their own immediate future. The crisis is the result of a long history of government policies, court cases, and political manipulation. While these disparate causes make up a tangled web, they have one surprising root: the attack on private property rights. For more than a century, government policies and court decisions have attacked, undermined, and eroded private property rights. Whether it be exclusionary zoning, eminent domain abuse, rent control, or excessive environmental regulations, The cumulative impact of these assaults on private property is that it has become increasingly difficult—or even impossible—to build adequate housing supplies to meet market demands. We are fast approaching a time when millions of typical Americans will, quite literally, have nowhere to live.Nowhere to Live: The Hidden Story of America's Housing Crisis, takes readers through the history of how we got here. With stories going back to the Civil War, the early twentieth century, and the ill-fated “urban renewal” movement of the 1950s, Nowhere to Live reveals how the government layered mistake upon mistake to create the current crisis. It also provides a way out: not by government fiat, but through the restoration of private property rights. https://www.amazon.com/Nowhere-Live-Hidden-Americas-Housing/dp/1510781536http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Many of us wrestle with that uneasy feeling in a “good enough” marriage, stable and secure but missing real connection and wonder if the problem lies within ourselves or the relationship.The truth is, it takes two people growing and learning together to make love work, and often we simply haven't been equipped with the right tools.At the same time, it's common to struggle with people-pleasing and chronic worry that drain our energy and joy.Healing means recognizing these patterns, setting healthy boundaries without guilt, and learning to ride the waves of uncertainty with courage.“Worrying is like praying for what you don't want. When you focus on what could go wrong, you make it bigger—and rob yourself of the joy right in front of you.”Struggling to decide whether to stay or go in your marriage and you're serious about finding that answer? Book a Truth & Clarity Session with a member of my team. We'll discuss where you are in your marriage and explore if there's a fit for you and I to work together so you can make - and execute - the RIGHT decision for YOU and your marriage.

When officials in Santa Clara County (home to Silicon Valley) publicly proclaimed they were not sharing data with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, they likely did not expect to be caught in a contradiction. Yet behind the scenes, those same officials had recently signed new contracts with the federal agency — a fact that might have remained hidden if not for a new generation of AI tools developed at Stanford University.This breakthrough was made possible by Big Local News, a Stanford-based initiative using AI to help local journalists uncover stories hidden deep within public records. As local newsrooms grapple with shrinking resources and overwhelming amounts of data, tools like these are helping restore investigative capacity where it's needed most.In this episode of Newsroom Robots, Cheryl Phillips, founder and co-director of Big Local News at Stanford University, joins host Nikita Roy to share how her team is building AI-powered tools that support watchdog journalism and make complex data more accessible to reporters across the country.Key topics include:Agenda Watch, a tool that scrapes and indexes public meeting agendas to surface early signals of newsworthy developments across thousands of local agencies.DataTalk, an AI assistant that turns natural language questions into campaign finance data queries, simplifying analysis for journalists without coding expertise.The use of generative AI and large-scale scraping systems to analyze police misconduct records and create public-facing accountability databases.How Big Local News uses Slack-integrated bots to deliver real-time alerts on layoffs and problematic fiscal audits to local newsrooms across the U.S.Sign up for the Newsroom Robots newsletter for episode summaries and insights from host Nikita Roy.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Mysteries of an Old Church: Unearthing Hidden Stories Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-04-15-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A nap sugarai gyengéden áttörtek a virágzó fák lombjai között, megvilágítva az elhagyatott régi templomot.En: The sun's rays gently broke through the branches of the blooming trees, illuminating the abandoned old church.Hu: A tavaszi szellő frissen töltötte meg a levegőt, a fülemülék éneke átszőtte a levegőt az ünnepi harangok hangjával.En: The spring breeze filled the air freshly, and the song of the nightingales wove through the air along with the sound of the festive bells.Hu: Húsvét vasárnap volt.En: It was Easter Sunday.Hu: Judit izgatottan, de kicsit izzadó tenyérrel lépett a templomhoz vezető ösvényre.En: Judit stepped onto the path leading to the church, feeling excited but with slightly sweaty palms.Hu: Mellette Gréta, legjobb barátnője, már régóta várta ezt az alkalmat.En: Next to her was Gréta, her best friend, who had been waiting for this occasion for a long time.Hu: "Azt mondják, van egy rejtett fal a templomban, amit még nem fedeztek fel," motyogta Judit, bár szemei csillogtak.En: "They say there's a hidden wall in the church that hasn't been discovered yet," Judit muttered, although her eyes sparkled.Hu: Gréta csak mosolygott.En: Gréta just smiled.Hu: Tudta, hogy ez a nap különleges lesz.En: She knew this day would be special.Hu: A kis csapat, különböző önkéntesekből állva, kedvesen üdvözölte őket.En: The small group, made up of various volunteers, greeted them kindly.Hu: Ott volt Bálint is, a mindig kalandvágyó fiatalember.En: There was Bálint too, the always adventurous young man.Hu: Judit már hallott róla, hiszen híres volt merészsége és vidám természete miatt.En: Judit had already heard of him, for he was famous for his boldness and cheerful nature.Hu: Miközben végigjárták az omladozó falakat, Bálint közeledett Judit felé.En: As they walked through the crumbling walls, Bálint approached Judit.Hu: A lány nem siette el a szavakat, de belül végtelen szenvedély tombolt benne a történelem iránt.En: She didn't rush her words, but inside, a boundless passion for history raged within her.Hu: Ahogy Gréta mesélte neki néhány nappal ezelőtt, Judit csak arra vágyott, hogy valakivel megoszthassa tudását.En: As Gréta had told her a few days ago, Judit only longed to share her knowledge with someone.Hu: "Mit szeretnél itt találni?En: "What do you hope to find here?"Hu: " érdeklődött Bálint, a gondolatait elterelve a megszokott kalandokat kereső ösztönén túl.En: asked Bálint, diverting his thoughts from his usual adventure-seeking instincts.Hu: "Valami különlegeset," válaszolta Judit, egy pillanatra megállva, hogy az ősi köveket megérintse.En: "Something special," Judit replied, pausing for a moment to touch the ancient stones.Hu: "Valamit, ami megmutatja, hogy mindennek van egy története, még ha rejtve is van.En: "Something that shows that everything has a story, even if it is hidden."Hu: "A nap előrehaladtával Gréta rávette Juditot, hogy vegyen egy mély lélegzetet és mutassa meg Bálintnak azt a rejtett szakaszt, amiről beszélt.En: As the day went on, Gréta encouraged Judit to take a deep breath and show Bálint the hidden section she had mentioned.Hu: Judit elsőre habozott, de végül úgy döntött, hogy bátor lépést tesz: meghívta Bálintot egy felfedezőútra.En: Judit hesitated at first, but finally decided to take a brave step: she invited Bálint on an exploratory journey.Hu: A templom titkos részéhez érve, amit csak Judit ismert, felfedeztek egy ősi freskót.En: Reaching the secret part of the church, known only to Judit, they discovered an ancient fresco.Hu: A freskó színeivel és alakjaival lenyűgözte őket, mindkettőjük szívét kalandvágy és csodálat járta át.En: Its colors and shapes captivated them, their hearts filled with adventure and wonder.Hu: "Ez meseszép," lehelte Bálint.En: "This is beautiful," breathed Bálint.Hu: Az őszinteség sugárzott belőle, ami bátorította Juditot.En: His sincerity shone through, encouraging Judit.Hu: "Valóban az," mosolygott Judit, érezve, hogy talán most először, megérti valaki az érzéseit.En: "It truly is," smiled Judit, feeling that perhaps, for the first time, someone understood her feelings.Hu: A freskó előtt állva beszélgettek, megosztva egymással vágyaikat és álmaikat.En: Standing before the fresco, they talked, sharing their desires and dreams.Hu: A beszélgetésük mély érzelmeket hozott felszínre, Judit és Bálint között új kapcsot teremtve.En: Their conversation brought deep emotions to the surface, creating a new bond between Judit and Bálint.Hu: A kíváncsi kalandor és a visszafogott történelemrajongó megtalálta egymást a rejtett szépség közepette.En: The curious adventurer and the reserved history enthusiast found each other amidst hidden beauty.Hu: Ahogy elhagyták a templomot, kéz a kézben haladtak az ösvényen, elmélyült beszélgetésük tovább folytatódott, a madarak dallamai és a távoli harangok kíséretében.En: As they left the church, they walked hand in hand down the path, their deep conversation continuing, accompanied by the melodies of the birds and distant bells.Hu: Judit bátorságot nyert, és végre azt érezte, hogy nem egyedül él a szenvedélyeivel.En: Judit gained courage and finally felt that she was not alone in her passions.Hu: Bálint pedig megértette, hogy az igaz kapcsolatok mélyebbek, mint bármelyik kaland.En: Bálint realized that true connections run deeper than any adventure.Hu: A virágzó fák alatt, a tavasz friss illatával körülvéve, megtalálták egymásban azt a különleges valamit, amit kerestek: a kapcsolatot, ami a közös élmények által megpecsételődött.En: Under the blooming trees, surrounded by the fresh scent of spring, they found in each other that special something they were searching for: a connection sealed by shared experiences.

The Louvre is among the largest, most-visited, and best-known museums in the world, and for nearly too many reasons to count. It's home to some of the most celebrated works of art, from the Venus de Milo to the Mona Lisa. Its blended contemporary and historic architecture is astounding. And it also has a truly formidable past, stretching back through time, well before the building became a museum in 1793. An institution and collection that has been a quiet witness to so much history and change is bound to have stories to tell. Elaine Sciolino, contributing writer and former Paris bureau chief for the New York Times, has captured many of these stories in her newest book, Adventures in the Louvre: How to Fall in Love with the World's Greatest Museum, which is out this April with Norton & Company. Sciolino is acclaimed for her chronicles of French history, and she's the author of the New York Times bestseller The Only Street in Paris, The Seine, and La Seduction. And at the Louvre, she spoke to everyone, from the guards to the lead curators, and received unprecedented access to rooms I didn't even know existed. Artnet's Senior Editor, Kate Brown, caught up with Elaine, who is based in Paris, to discuss the enigmatic and ever-enchanting Louvre, and what she learned from her exploration of its many halls, backrooms, and basements.

progetto, ma Marco, il curatore principale, aveva giudicato il suo lavoro irrilevante.En: She had worked on the project for months, but Marco, the principal curator, had deemed her work irrelevant.It: Giulia desiderava ardentemente che il suo mestiere venisse apprezzato.En: Giulia desperately wanted her craft to be appreciated.It: Intorno a lei, la folla chiacchierava e sorrideva, ignara della sua lotta interiore.En: Around her, the crowd chatted and smiled, unaware of her inner struggle.It: "Non devo arrendermi," pensò Giulia.En: "I must not give up," thought Giulia.It: Decisa a far valere le

pennellate antiche nelle tele intorno a loro.En: The silence in the room was palpable, broken only by the sound of ancient brushstrokes on the canvases around them.It: Marco, sorpreso dalla reazione
