It has become quite common these days to hear about the negative impact of tourism on popular tourist destinations and local communities. Tourists are usually welcome as they contribute to local economies. Unfortunately, big crowds flowing every year through otherwise small and quiet regions can cause significant inconveniences. The infrastructure, like roads and sewers, is often not designed for such big crowds. Also the environment like beaches, mountain trails and footpaths can be totally destroyed by a large number of tourists. Not to mention the litter. There are many places all over the world which are struggling with this problem, but today our focus is on the famous Ring of Kerry route located on the Iveragh peninsula in south-western Ireland. In the episode, I talk with a man who is proposing a bold solution to this problem. A futuristic eMonorail, an electric coach, powered by solar energy, travelling on a single rail, designed to eliminate tourist coaches and cars from the narrow rural roads of the area. This could revolutionize tourism and provide a whole new way of experiencing the Ring of Kerry. Is such a bold and futuristic project possible? My guest, Kevin C. Murphy is convinced that the answer is, yes. But it’s not only wishful thinking. Kevin has put a lot of thought into the technical and economic aspects of this project. So, listen up and you just might get excited about the prospect.

Kim Trent, Executive Director of Knox Heritage, surveys the trends of preservation and how they're playing out in Knoxville in this discussion of Past and Future City: How Historic Preservation is Reviving America’s Communities by Stephanie Meeks and Kevin C. Murphy. “Stephanie Meeks makes a compelling case for creating great cities through historic preservation and she shares strategies that can guide us along the way,” Trent said.  “She also addresses the challenges we all face in preservation since the work touches on so many aspects of our communities: history, economics, urban planning, diversity, transportation, affordable housing, sustainability, architecture, real estate, and government among many others. But for those who value history, architecture and sustainable communities, the rewards are definitely worth the struggle and make success all the sweeter and more meaningful.”

In the basement kitchen of the Department of Agriculture, 12 young men sat down to a meal laced with poison, an event that would occur three times a day for the next 18 months. This is the incredible story of Dr Harvey Washington Wiley and the Poison Squad, tasked with the experiment of finding out just how bad food preservatives were for the humans. This voluntary undertaking would lead to the formation of the Pure Food and Drug law and subsequent food regulation across the world. But the experiment wasn’t without its setbacks, from a member who couldn’t lose weight to the tragic (though perhaps not surprising) death of one of its participants. Pioneering hero or callous killer? You decide with the latest episode of Yesterday’s Chip Paper. Also this week, a slight overreaction from one newspaper reader on some flowers stolen from his garden, and possibly the most gloriously disappointing poem in the short history of this podcast. Yesterday’s Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that takes true stories from across the world and tells them through the very words of the historic newspapers themselves. Every two weeks or so Violet and Jim, a pair of transatlantic amateur researchers, pick a story they’ve found in the old newspapers and tell each other (and you) about it. Whether it’s unsolved crimes or mutiny at sea or daring escapes from prison, it’s guaranteed to be something strange, macabre, bizarre or downright bonkers.
