Before their vaccines were made available, measles and rubella swept through towns every few years, mostly infecting young children. Everyone was expected to suffer through them at some point. Waco native Mary Sendón recalls her and her siblings' experience with the more serious of the two illnesses: "All of us—four of us—got measles at the same time. I was even in grammar school; I didn't get it till I was in grammar school. And I remember that my grandfather and my dad—you know, the men really worried about the kids a lot. You'd be surprised how much attention they gave to them. But I know my grandfather got worried because my fever was way up high. And, you know, it was so high that my nails peeled off. And he got up and went to the drugstore and tried to get something from—there was an old Kassell's drugstore down on Eighth Street, and he got the druggist to give him something to get the fever down. And there were little powders. You had to mix them in a teaspoon of water and then drink a glass of water. Fever powders, that's what they were called. And he went down and got that. "And, I tell you, we were sick for about a week. And we had to stay in a dark room, you know, because—to protect the eyes. And my grandmother was there, my great-aunt, and my father and mother, and everybody was taking care of all the sick kids. But it did affect my brother's eyes. That's why when he went into the service, he—they wouldn't take him because of his eyes. Of course, then the draft took him and put him in the air corps." Dr. Howard Williams of Orange tells how rubella, commonly known as the German measles, possibly saved his life during WWII: "I went up to Camp Atterbury [Joint Maneuver Training Center] in Indiana and finished my basic training there as a rifleman. And then we were all packed to go—we were in the 106th Division—and we're packed, ready to go that very week. And I got up with splotches all over me. I had measles—German. They put me in the hospital there at Camp Atterbury, and the 106th left. And then after ten days, they—the day the division's gone, they reassigned me. They sent me to a artillery observation battalion, and that was down at Camp Gordon, Georgia. "Well, the 106th that I was—would have been with, was one that was totally destroyed in the [Battle of the] Bulge. They were all pre-college type, and the Germans burst across the line there, and—gosh, a division is like fifteen thousand people. And out of fifteen thousand, I think like seven—six or seven thousand were killed, and another five or six thousand were captured. So had I not had German measles, I don't know what would have happened to me." Interviewer: "A lot of people you trained with, too." "And all these people I'd trained with and all. I mean, they just disappeared." Vaccines for measles and rubella were licensed in the U.S. in the 1960s. Since then, the number of cases has dropped by 99 percent, ending the role of these illnesses as anticipated life events. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Among other things, archeology studies artifacts of the past to learn about people and their cultures. What if we took the same approach to fictional media? Could we learn a little more about ourselves? Archeology professor Howard Williams joins us again to talk about his study of how the characters of The Walking Dead grapple with death and what this could say about us.
Vikings in media. It's complicated. Let's talk with one of THE Viking experts, Dr. Howard Williams about it.
For thousands of years, the building of walls has played an essential role in shaping the world as we know it; from being used to monitor populations to controlling trade, they have often acted as borders of entire nations. In this episode, Howard Williams takes us through some of the most famous walls in medieval history and explores how two of the best-known linear earthworks in western Britain, Offa's Dyke and Wat's Dyke, have served to separate England and Wales. Howard Williams is a Professor of Archaeology at the University of Chester. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
This week we're joined by senior properties historian Susan Greaney and Howard Williams, professor of archaeology at the University of Chester, to discuss the early medieval period of British history that followed the collapse of Roman state control of lowland Britain and ended with the Norman conquest of 1066. This was a time of migrations and far-reaching contacts, Christian conversion, kingdom formation and expansion, and Viking raids and settlement. But archaeological evidence tells us so much more about these fascinating centuries. Discover what happened after the Romans left Britain, who replaced them, why this period is often referred to as ‘The Dark Ages' and why this problematic description is now being phased out.

Howard Williams continues the Faith Works series, looking at the book of James.
Tonight and throughout the month of November The Jazz Show throws the spotlight on obscure, underrated and under recorded trumpeters. All are master musicians but for a variety of reasons, none got the recognition they so richly deserved. In the case of tonight's the wonderful Wilbur Harden , it was a case of his career being curtailed by ill heath both mental and physical. He had recorded with the great Yusef Lateef and John Coltrane and was held in very high esteem. He signed with Savoy Records in 1958 and recorded four wonderful dates, two of which make up tonight's Jazz Feature. Wilbur appears on flugelhorn, his preferred horn with the mighty John Coltrane, trombonist Curtis Fuller, pianists Howard Williams and Tommy Flanagan (splitting the chores), bassist Alvin (aka Ali) Jackson and drum great Arthur Taylor. These two recordings were done in June of 1958 and first issued separately on two LPs. We hear them both tonight. Wilbur Harden wrote four of the seven tunes and Curtis Fuller wrote two and the ballad feature is the old standard "Once in a While". Wilbur made his final record in 1960 and sadly died in obscurity in 1969 at age 44. Hear him at his best tonight!
