Hello my curious archaeogastronomers!This week's subject is a little bit darker than normal.My reason for doing an episode is that this time of the year, specifically near 28th of October, is that is when traditionally in Greece the commemoration and celebration of liberation from Nazis occupation is celebrated. I wanted to examine the role of the famine in the modern Greek psyche a little.World War 2 was brutal for the Greek people; Greece as country suffered under the triple occupation of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Bulgaria.Roughly 10% of the pre war population perished. A civil war that lasted 4 years ensued after liberation in 1994. Greece lay in ruins. Whoever could, in the 50's immigrated in USA, Australia and Germany to find a better luck.The after effects of the devastation and the great famine of WW2 were felt till recently. The grandmas talk about it, it has passed in the language and in the way people saw food in the subsequent decades.Listen to BBC's Witness History short episode:https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct3c59Recommended reading:Famine and death in occupied Greece, 1941-1944: By Violetta Hionidou · 2006The German Occupation Recipes:https://metabook.gr/books/oi-sintaghes-tis-katokhis-natalia-samara-gkaitlikh-20132Much Love,Thom & The Delicious LegacySupport the podcast on Ko-Fi and Patreon for ad-free episodes! https://ko-fi.com/thedeliciouslegacypodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/thedeliciouslegacySupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

Imagine if you will, it's the 1940's and Europe is being overrun by the Nazi war machine. Scientists that would take part in the success of the Manhattan Project have fled their now occupied nations bringing their knowledge of harnessing atomic power to the Allies. That didn't deter the Nazi's from forming a program of their own, starting the "Uranium Club" in 1939. No one knew where the other stood in their goal of building the bomb, for all the allies knew Hitler was on the cusp of developing it first. Nuclear fission was discovered in Berlin after all. When a Norwegian scientist escaping Nazi occupation informed the British a hydroelectric plant, which just so happen to be the largest producer of Heavy Water in the world, was captured by Hitler and its production ramped up, the Allies knew the implications. Heavy Water is a key ingredient in the process of creating nuclear fission. It allowed the process to occur with natural uranium, instead of the much more difficult to produce enriched uranium. To slow the Nazi's nuclear program several missions were attempted to destroy the heavy water production, the only problem was the plant was build like a fortress in one of the most inhospitable places in the world. This is the story of those men that took on a suicide mission to stop Hitler from getting The Bomb. Join us this week as week as get Historically High on Operation Gunnerside. Support the show

This week Seth Paridon and Jon Parshall take a look at the second part of the Battle for Wake Island, the Japanese invasion and American defense. The guys also dig into the details, focusing on the American relief effort planned by Admiral Husband Kimmel, the Japanese plans for a re-do, the Japanese landings and subsequent beat-down that the Marines put on Kajioka's assault troops. All this leads up to the controversial decision to surrender the island by CDR Cunningham. The guys get into a rare "what-if" regarding what would have happened if the Marines had destroyed the second Japanese attempt to take the island.

This week, the BiG Scuba Duo, Gemma and Ian chat to Nick Schiller. Nick is a keen lover of being on and under the water. He is a sidemount diver and an assistant BSAC instructor. He has dived extensively in the UK as well as Egypt, Iceland, Mexico and Tobago. He loves diving with a scooter and is keen on helping people out removing tarpaulins, ropes, etc form props, searching for mobile phones and wedding rings. So that's how he got involved with S32 - a phone call "could you just come and inspect a sunken WW2 air sea rescue boat for us?" - a year later and Nick is very involved in trying to save the MASB S32 Whaleback. He is currently, taking a break from diving as a result of the accident on Sea Palling beach involving a boat but ready to return to diving next year.

There are spoilers ahead for all versions of The Day of the Triffids and also for the film Signs. You can follow the podcast on social media on Threads, Instagram and Bluesky.  If you would like to be a patron of the podcast you can join Patreon and for £3 or $3 a month you can get ad free version of the show. https://www.patreon.com/everyscififilm  This episode had been edited down to a more digestible length of under an hour but a longer (audio only) version is available for Patreon subscribers (alongside the shorter option). We are doing things a little differently and discussing the 1963 film along with the source material which is John Wyndham's 1951 book The Day of the Triffids. The Day of the Triffids film was released in 1963 after reshoots were required to add a whole new arc in the story and bring the time to a more suitable length for a feature. The film has many of the hallmarks of a 1950s science fiction film but seems to be reflective of the Golden Era of science fiction very much coming to its end. The film is (very loosely) based on John Wyndham's first successful novel but seems more dedicated to the tropes of a 1950s sci-fi marketed for a mass, US leaning audience. The book is chockful of themes that are touched upon throughout the story which have very little (if any) presence in the film. I have added a list of the characters we discuss below as well as a quick overview of their roles in the book and the film. As usual I have two insightful guests to help us understand all of this. Matthew Rule-Jones is a senior lecturer in film studies at the University of Exeter and author of the book Science Fiction Cinema and 1950s Britain: Recontextualising Cultural Anxiety. Adam Stock is a senior lecturer in English Literature at York St John University and author of the book Dystopian Fiction and Political Thought: Narratives of World Politics. Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:30 John Wyndham's first hit 05:23 The concept of the cosy catastrophe 08:43 Wyndham's Britain: post-colonial triffids coming home to roost 14:48 The 1963 film: Wells, end of the golden age and marketing 20:04 The lighthouse sequences: Karen vs Josella 23:06 Weed killers in The Silent Spring era and WW2 imagery 25:17 The role of the Triffids 30:37 Bill Masen the hero 34:37 Coker's missing role 37:11 Women! 40:27 The ending 46:51 Legacy 53:57 Recommendations Bill Masen: Hero in both the book and the film. In the book Bill is English and works for the triffid farm where he has been almost blinded by a triffid sting. His colleague begins to suspect the triffids are indeed sentient and able to communicate. This brings up questions around exploitation and enslavement. In the film Bill is American and works for the US Navy who help save the hero and other survivors at the end of the film. Josella Playton: The heroine from the novel is not present in the 1963 film. Josella comes from a wealthy family (one with servants) and has written a notorious book titled Sex is my Adventure. Coker: Coker has a large role in the book and we meet him as an advocate for the newly blinded masses when many of the few sighted people left are attempting to save themselves from the threat of a disintegrating society. He is a strong public speaker from a working-class background who had learned to speak in a way that is more amenable to the intelligentsia and upper classes. His strongly held beliefs (of forcing the sighted to serve the blind) change through the book to become less idealistic and more practical. Coker in the film is an old man with a very minimal role who dies early in the story form a triffid attack. Susan: Is a young girl who is rescued by Bill in the film after a train crash and ensuing chaos. In the book Bill takes in Susan whose family have died. She is a capable young child who develops an understanding of triffid behaviour from observing them as she guards the home that Josella and Bill stay in for many years. Miss Durrant: In the film Miss Durrant is the beautiful heroine that Bill meets in a large house in France that is caring from blind survivors of the meteor shower. In the book, Miss Durrant is a religious minded woman who is appalled at a man named Beadley's attempts to rebuild society through polygamy. She seems to purposefully mislead Bill who is trying to track down Beadley because he thinks Josella will be with him. NEXT EPISODE! Next episode we will be speaking about The Manchurian Candidate from 1962 by John Frankenheimer. A film that may not fit the definition of science fiction for many people but by now I think we know how ambiguous those definitions can be! You can find the film on streaming platforms including Apple TV. The Just Watch website is a good resource to find where the film is available online in your region.

October 2025 Today GCHQ is an independent British intelligence organisation. However during World War 2, GC&CS, as it was then called, continued to be subordinate to the British Secret Intelligence Service, known as SIS or MI6. The Chief of SIS was also the Director of GC&CS. In this episode, we explore the relationship between the two organisations, the part that SIS played in supporting GC&CS, and the ongoing presence of SIS at Bletchley Park itself. Head of Content, Erica Munro, is joined by our Research Historian, Dr David Kenyon, and by a special guest - historian and expert on the wartime history of SIS, Dr Claire Hubbard-Hall. To see the objects we discuss in this episode, visit https://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/our-story/e184-the-sis-at-bletchley-park/  Claire's book ‘Her Secret Service: The Forgotten Women of British Intelligence' is available from all good bookshops.

On 27th September 1943, in German occupied Naples, an uprising began that lasted four days. By the 29th the Germans had lost the city and so made the decision to leave, heading north for safety as the victorious Neapolitans and Partisans celebrated in the streets. On 1st October the Allies arrived, and the city was secure. Or was it? Within months starvation descended on Naples, and with it disease, prostitution and misery. Joining today is Keith Lowe, author of Naples 1944 as we delve a little bit deeper into this piece of Italian and WW2 history, including the notorious Camorra. I'll be at the Imperial War Museum on Saturday 1st November, so it would be great to see you there.

2025-10-22 | Silicon Wafers 038 | What is Ukraine's spymaster Kyrylo Budanov saying about deep strikes on Russia's energy system; how those strikes are reshaping the battlefield and the very conduct of 21st century warfare. Unmanned capabilities are redefining the concept of attrition and vulnerability in modern warfare, and in this confrontation, Russia's size is not necessarily an advantage. Russia has suffered greater losses to its oil supported war machine and economy from Ukraine's strikes than from Western sanctions. Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate, stated that "We have inflicted much greater direct damage on Russia than any economic levers of influence that have been introduced so far."Western hesitancy, inconsistency of policy, ongoing dependencies on Russian resources and refusal to close loopholes mean that the Russian treasury has earned billions of dollars in each year of their full-scale war, despite our awareness of the threat Russia poses to Ukraine, to Europe and to the international order that we created after the end of WW2. ----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv. The film production began in 2018, and much has changed since then. It is now 2025, and this story is far from over.https://www.youtube.com/@UCz6UbVKfqutH-N7WXnC5Ykg https://www.kyivofmine.com/#theprojectKyiv of Mine is fast paced, beautifully filmed, humorous, fun, insightful, heartbreaking, moving, hopeful. The very antithesis in fact of a doom-laden and worthy wartime documentary. This is a work that is extraordinarily uplifting. My friend Operator Starsky says the film is “Made with so much love. The film series will make you laugh and cry.” ----------SOURCES: New Voice of Ukraine — “Drone strikes damaged Russian oil industry more than Western sanctions—Budanov,” Oct. 16, 2025. https://english.nv.ua/nation/drone-strikes-more-effective-than-sanctions-budanov-50553210.htmlUkrinform — “Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries cause Russia more damage than sanctions—Budanov,” Oct. 16, 2025. https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/4048141-ukrainian-strikes-on-oil-refineries-cause-russia-more-damage-than-sanctions-budanov.htmlTSN — “Budanov: A deal without Ukraine is impossible,” Oct. 16, 2025. https://tsn.ua/en/politika/budanov-responds-whether-putin-can-strike-a-peace-deal-with-the-us-without-ukraine-2935895.html----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

Send us a textWhen should I stop exercising?  Well, I hope this is a trick question, because the obvious answer is never!  Kind of like asking when you should stop walking, or sleeping, or eating for God's sake!  Moving your limbs and constantly striving to make improvements in your physical abilities is a lifelong project, and just as we should constantly work at getting better and more able physically, we should also try to do so mentally as well.Just as I am constantly researching about improving my overall health and nutrition,  I am always on the lookout for physical improvements I can gain.  At 73, I should change my goals somewhat - for instance, if I worked at this stage to get as big and bulky as possible, that would be idiotic!  Actually, even when I was in my 20's this was never my goal, and never would be: I wanted an aesthetic, symmetrical, Frank Zane/Steve Reeves kind of a body.  Still do; and I hope you do too.  Think of Greek statuary of ancient times- that is still the ideal of Western civilization, and should always be the ultimate ideal!Luckily, this is also the ideal can be carried throughout life- even in old age, a lean, and quite strong and lithe physique can be yours for life.  Flexibility and healthy joints should also be your lifelong goals, along with a certain amount of musculature.  My mother's brother, my uncle Bob Manthey, just turned 103 recently, and while quite lean, he also still has a pretty functional physique!  He is a lifetime example of what we should all aim for- a healthy mind in a healthy body- and he has been following the principles I recommend here for his entire life.He avoided vaccines for life, and although he himself was a medical doctor (an eye doctor) he avoided medical doctor appointments and tests that were more harmful than good.  (Like most medical appointments are today at the typical clinic).  Uncle Bob's only vaccine was for small pox, when he enlisted in the army for WW2.  Other than that, he relied on improving his bodily 'terrain' through good natural nutrition and exercise.  It certainly worked out very well indeed!He lived on a small farm in South Dakota, and had 12 children.  Also, he was very active musically, playing multiple instruments, singing, and playing with his family orchestra (with my mother and my aunts) and with other bands of various sizes.  I am active musically myself, as were my parents (my mother turns 100 this coming March 14), and I believe that music is a wonderful adjunct to life, bringing a type of pure joy to the spirit that never dims!  If music is not your ‘thing', other art forms are similar in inspiring your health and joy in life!  Just choose your own NON poison form of Art…The only caution I will give you here is to limit your use of heavy weights as you age.  Preservation of your joints and tendons become paramount as you age, and muscular bulk means very little compared to your circulation and smooth, pain free joint movement.  You can drop the heavy barbell squats and deadlifts, and go for high rep body-weight and one-legged squats balancing while holding gymnastic rings, and get rid of heavy bench presses to save your shoulders.  Use the gymnastic rings for pushups, dips, pull-ups and rows, and if anything your physique will improve!  So, there is your advice from both me and my and Uncle Bob!  In thirty years, when I am 103, I will update my thoughts- see you then!!Support the show

Professor Jackson takes a step back to review themes from episodes 187 through 189 (War in Europe and America's Response), specifically the slow turn from isolationism to aid via Lend-Lease, and eventually to preparing for war.  Prof. Jackson's guests are Professor Lindsey Cormack, an associate professor of political science at Stevens Institute of Technology, and historian Lynne Olson, author of several books on WW2 including Citizens of London which chronicles the pivotal role played by three Americans who influenced the decisions of President Franklin Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill—Edward R. Murrow, Averell Harriman, and John Gilbert Winant. Olson emphasizes how these individuals navigated the complexities of diplomacy and public opinion, often against a backdrop of American isolationism and British skepticism, ultimately building a strong relationship that was essential for the war effort.  ____ Connect with us on ⁠HTDSpodcast.com⁠ and go deep into ⁠episode bibliographies⁠ and ⁠book recommendations⁠ join discussions in our ⁠Facebook community⁠ get news and discounts from ⁠The HTDS Gazette⁠  come ⁠see a live show⁠ get ⁠HTDS merch⁠ or become an ⁠HTDS premium⁠ member for bonus episodes and other perks.
