Podcasts about Living history

A group of local historians are hard at work unearthing and preserving the rich histories of Madison's neighborhoods. Using maps and oral histories, Make History Madison is a crowd-sourced, place-based public history initiative that encourages people of all ages to contribute photos, research, testimonials, and observations about the places in Madison that matter to them. On today's show, host Douglas Haynes speaks with four guests involved in the project, Martín Alvarado, James Levy, Angela Richardson, and John Wedge. As much as their work involves celebrating Madison's vibrant history, they also tell the painful histories of dispossession and displacement that are part of our shared past. Alvarado discusses the displacement of African Americans from the Greenbush neighborhood to Madison's South Side, and Richardson describes the experience of learning about the Shenk-Atwood neighborhood as a layer cake. You can learn about your building or block using archival tools at the Madison Public Library and their Living History collections. Alvarado says that small newspapers are a treasure trove of our ancestors' oversharing. Richardson describes the process as “collective remembering” and this work is an “antidote” to the Trump Administration's “airbrushed history,” says Wedge. As the contributions of Black, LGBTQ, and Indigenous peoples have been scrubbed from federal websites, the work of local historians to preserve the past is more important than ever. Ultimately, Make History Madison isn't just about documenting the past, but about using the past to engage with the present and the future, says Levy.  On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, Make History Madison presents Music Venues We Have Loved at The High Noon Saloon in association with WORT 89.9 FM and Madison Public Library. Martín Alvarado is a Community Engagement Librarian at the Madison Public Library and host of Global Revolutions on WORT 89.9 FM. James Levy is the founder and Executive Director of the Race and Place Coalition and the Whose Land? public history project. A scholar trained in African American history and former Associate Professor of History at UW-Whitewater, his projects employ oral history and collaborative community research to foster public dialogue about the connections between race and geography. Dr. Levy's current book project, forthcoming from the University of Wisconsin Press, is titled The Color of Farming in the Heartland: A History of Land and Race in Wisconsin since 1800. Angela Richardson is an artist, educator, and passionate “hyperlocal historian.” Her primary research focuses on the Schenk-Atwood neighborhood and Madison’s near east side. John Wedge is a historian, labor advocate, and public arts organizer. Originally from London, he has a Ph.D. in American History from the University of Illinois. He is Executive Director for WEAC Region 6, and singer, guitarist, and co-founder of northern soul/rock band The Periodicals. Prior to Whoseland.org and Make History Madison, he co-produced The Greatest War: World War I, Wisconsin, and Why it Still Matters. Featured image of the Make History Madison logo.

On this episode of The Daily Grateful, Michael takes a joyride straight through the Baby Boomer experience — from transistor radios and handwritten letters to Woodstock, rotary phones, and standing in line for concert tickets like it was a sacred mission from the rock-and-roll gods.Michael reflects on growing up in a world with no smartphones, no internet, and no GPS… just bicycles, neighborhood adventures, and parents yelling your full name when it got dark outside. Along the way, he shares stories about seeing Jerry Lee Lewis, the Dave Clark Five, Frank Zappa, and Jefferson Airplane back when concerts cost less than a large pizza today.But this episode is more than nostalgia. It's about resilience, gratitude, and being part of the last generation to experience an entirely analog childhood before the digital world took over. From polio vaccines to AM radio to the strange realization that radio may actually be making a comeback, this one is funny, heartfelt, quirky, and deeply human.Because maybe growing older doesn't make us obsolete.Maybe it makes us all part of living history.#DailyGrateful #MichaelCrose #BabyBoomers #LivingHistory #ClassicRock #OldSchoolCool #GratitudePodcast #BoomerLife #Storytelling #RadioDays #Nostalgia #WoodstockGeneration

Is the story of Reiki still unfolding?In this episode of Reiki from the Farm™, I'm joined by Su Mach'ado — Licensed Reiki Master Teacher with the International Center for Reiki Training, lawyer, historian, and visionary behind a recent international Reiki summit in Brazil that is helping to bring new awareness and connection to the global Reiki community.Su's journey into Reiki is as fascinating as her work within it. With a background in law, she brings a unique lens of discernment, structure, and inquiry to the spiritual path — qualities that now serve her deeply in her role as one of Reiki's modern historians.Together, we explore what it means to be a “historian” in a living spiritual practice — one that continues to evolve as new research, translations, and discoveries emerge. We discuss recent insights into Reiki's origins, including contributions from researchers such as Justin Stein, and how these findings are helping us better understand the roots of the system while honoring its spiritual essence.We also talk about Su's beautiful work in Brazil — creating a Reiki summit that brings practitioners together across languages, cultures, and traditions, expanding the reach and accessibility of Reiki in profound ways.This episode is a bridge between past and present…between tradition and discovery…and between the roots of Reiki and the future it is still becoming.If you've ever felt called to understand Reiki more deeply — not just as a practice, but as a lineage — this conversation will open something new within you.______Pam Allen-LeBlanc is a scientist, businesswoman, and Licensed Reiki Master Teacher (LRMT) with the International Center for Reiki Training.Get in Touch with Pam:pam@reikifromthefarm.comwww.reikifromthefarm.com______Su Mach'ado is a Brazilian Licensed Reiki Master Teacher (LRMT) and Historian for the International Center for Reiki Training (ICRT), and founder of Centro de Treinamento de Reiki – Felicidade.

Ruth explained her approach to living history and casual experimentation to verify historical practices, the importance of practical research in understanding daily routines, how clothing inventories and household tools reveal regional and social differences in historical records, and the role of hearsay, imagery, and disapproval in uncovering the realities of ordinary people's lives.Watch Episode on YoutubeHi!

“We should be an experience for guests to experiment with Portuguese products, Portuguese brands, and this means the coffee, the toilet paper, the wines, the amenities. This creates a kind of conversation and it's also storytelling for them to take home.”We're in great company with Sofia Brandão, Managing Director of AlmaLusa Hotels, a boutique collection of three soulful properties rooted in the heart of Portugal—from the grand historic squares of Lisbon's Baixa, to the ancient cobblestoned alleys of Alfama, to the sun-bleached tranquility of Comporta's coast.Here, they have reimagined what it means to truly meet a place—not just stay in it—through heritage, Portuguese soul, and the warmth of genuine hospitality.In this episode, Sofia reflects on ten years of building AlmaLusa with patience, purpose, and intention—reminding us that the most memorable stays are never about the room, but always about how a place makes you feel.Top Takeaways[1:55] Sofia didn't set out to run hotels—she set out to see the world, and somewhere along the way, the world checked her in.[9:10] The Portuguese have always had history, food, and soul worth sharing with the world—and have spent centuries being far too humble to insist upon it.[12:20] A decade in, AlmaLusa's quiet rule for growth has never changed—the right location, real heritage, and a neighborhood worth genuinely sharing with guests.[15:40] After 25 years in Lisbon, Sofia is still getting lost in it—and she wouldn't have it any other way.[18:15] Three properties, three entirely different heartbeats—from the vibrant historic square of Baixa Chiado to the poetic evening streets of Alfama to the unhurried, sun-stretched days of Comporta.[21:15] At AlmaLusa, the history isn't hanging on the walls—in many cases, it is the walls.[24:05] AlmaLusa has a simple vision—every product a guest touches should be Portuguese, and every one of those products should have something worth saying.[26:20] In Portugal, the next meal is already being planned before the current one is over—and at AlmaLusa's restaurants, that spirit of gathering around the table is baked into every honest, ingredient-led dish.[29:20] Alma means soul in Portuguese—and at AlmaLusa, that isn't a brand promise, it's the operating principle behind every greeting and every turndown note.[34:10] Portugal will always be a small country—and Sofia believes that's exactly what makes it one of the most quietly extraordinary destinations in the world.Notable MentionsSix Sense Douro ValleyPastel de Nata, Portuguese egg custard tartVinho Verde Visit For YourselfAlmaLusa Hotels Website | @almalusahotels | @almalusacomporta | @delfinarestaurants% off with code FRIEND at checkout

In Part 108 of The Story of Creation on the Authentic Human Podcast, Michelle Vickers shares a real-time conversation with Universal Beings — including direct communication with The Creator — exploring Consciousness, Free Will, and the true origins of human existence. This is not channeling. This is conscious conversation with universal intelligence. In this episode, we explore: • What consciousness actually is (the living history of existence) • Why free will requires exploration • How every human has full access to universal consciousness • Why access to truth was removed • The real reason humanity feels exhausted • How challenges expand your capacity and contribute to consciousness • Why judgment is not a universal energy • How healing begins in energy before the physical body • Why you are here to create a new world — not fix the old one The Creator explains that free will means you have access to every aspect of creation — every planet, every star, every dimension of universal existence. The Secret of Existence & Creation: > Intention becomes Energy. > Energy becomes Experience. >Experience expands consciousness. You are not here to wait to be saved. You are here to explore your potential and participate in the recreation of human existence. Every challenge you've faced has trained you for this role. Every experience has expanded the universal library of consciousness. If you have ever asked: Why do I exist? Why am I here now? Why do I feel called to something bigger? This episode answers that. New episodes weekly exploring universal consciousness, human origins, free will, energy architecture, and the evolution of existence.

Send us a textWorld War I: Feeding the British Army With ( Pete's Living History )On this episode of the American Civil War & UK History podcast, host Daz is joined by living historian Pete Neal of the TikTok page Pete's Living History to explore how the British Army was fed during the First World War.Feeding the British Army in the First World War was a logistical struggle as much as a necessity. Soldiers relied on basic, calorie-rich rations such as bully beef, biscuits, bread, jam, tea, and tinned vegetables, with hot meals from field kitchens when supplies reached the line. Disruptions caused by mud, shellfire, and the German blockade often reduced these comforts, leaving men with cold, repetitive fare like Maconochie stew or pea soup, sometimes made with horsemeat. In these conditions, parcels from home and the daily rum ration played an important role in sustaining morale as well as bodies.Pete's Living History TikTok page https://www.tiktok.com/@petes_livinghistory?_r=1&_t=ZN-93OUN2HUyIMACW & UK History's Website.https://www.acwandukhistory.com/ACW & UK History's Pages.https://linktr.ee/ACWandUKHISTORYSupport the show

Recorded on location in St. Augustine, Florida, this episode of Big Blend Radio's "Travel with Terri" explores the rich history, vibrant culture, and living heritage of America's oldest continuously occupied city. Travel writer Terri Guthrie discusses St. Augustine's Spanish colonial roots and iconic landmarks, including the Fountain of Youth and Castillo de San Marcos National Monument, both of which play a major role in understanding the city's early military, cultural, and colonial history. The conversation highlights St. Augustine's strategic importance as a Spanish stronghold, the stories behind its massive stone fort overlooking Matanzas Bay, and how these sites connect to the city's broader narrative of exploration, defense, and cultural exchange. The episode also emphasizes the importance of acknowledging indigenous history and preserving untold stories as the nation approaches America's 250th anniversary. Special guests Bob and Maria Alvarez, COO and CFO of the Historic Florida Militia, share how historical reenactment brings the past to life through immersive education and storytelling. They discuss their involvement in reenactments, their work on the PBS documentary America's Untold Story, and why keeping history alive is essential for future generations.

Purebred Dogs: Living History on Our Couch | A Year-End Reflection As we come to the close of another year — one that has been long, challenging, and filled with upheaval both globally and within the purebred dog fancy — it felt right to pause, reflect and remember why we do what we do. One of the great comforts of purebred dogs is their reliability. No matter what else is happening in the world, somewhere nearby there is a dog event — a show, a trial, a hunt test, a training day. These gatherings give us a chosen family: people who console us when times are hard, celebrate with us when times are good, and understand the passion that binds us together. On the Shoulders of Giants In dog breeding, one of my favorite phrases is “on the shoulders of giants.” While famous handlers may get the television time, the true unsung heroes of purebred dogs are the breeders. Breeders are the devoted advocates and curators of living history. Their imagination, vision, commitment, and endurance preserve breeds that represent centuries — sometimes millennia — of human partnership with dogs. And yet, too often, when master breeders pass, their hard-earned knowledge disappears with them. Pure Dog Talk was created, in part, to save and share that irreplaceable wisdom. Through our podcast archives, albums, and seminars, we aim to preserve the voices, stories, and experience of the best and brightest breeders worldwide — so that future generations don't have to reinvent what has already been learned. Purebred Dogs as Living History Every one of the 200+ breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club — and many more worldwide — represents a specific time, place, and human culture. Purebred dogs are a living, breathing continuum of history. Pedigrees bring that history directly into our homes. Some breeding records trace back thousands of years. Long before formal breed standards existed, early humans were selectively breeding dogs for climate adaptation, specialized diets, hunting ability, and companionship. Recent research has even reshaped our understanding of ancient breeds: TheGreenland Dogis now considered the oldest known dog breed, tracing back to the Pleistocene era.Basenjis, depicted in cave art dating to 6,000 BC, possess uniquely distinct DNA.Greyhoundsdescribed in a 15th-century poem still match the breed standard today — and every modern Greyhound traces back to a single dog whelped in England in 1839.Bedlington Terriersboast the oldest unbroken terrier pedigree, dating to 1782.Ancient breeds like theChow...

concerned, but his expression soon changed.Sv: När de skar och slipade sina hästar, började han ställa frågor om olika tekniker och målning.En: As they carved and sanded their horses, he began asking questions about different techniques and painting.Sv: Sofia såg på honom och kunde inte hjälpa att le.En: Sofia looked at him and couldn't help but smile.Sv: "Det är inte så illa, eller hur?"En: "It's not so bad, is it?"Sv: Axel ryckte på axlarna men log tillbaka.En: Axel shrugged but smiled back.Sv: "Det är faktiskt roligare än jag trodde."En: "It's actually more fun than I thought."Sv: Under resten av besöket i Skansen vandrade de runt, deltog i fler aktiviteter, och Sofia njöt av Axels alltmer entusiastiska närvaro.En: For the rest of their visit to Skansen, they wandered around, participated in more activities, and Sofia enjoyed Axel's increasingly enthusiastic presence.Sv: När de tillslut lämnade platsen, höll Axel stolt sin färdiga Dalahäst i handen.En: When they finally

In a very special episode, host Todd Ritter travels back in time to sit down with a true titan of the bourbon industry: the ghost of Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. himself. Taking a brief leave from his permanent residence in the Frankfort Cemetery, the Colonel joins the show to tell his incredible life story in his own words. He recounts his early life, from being orphaned as a child and sent to live with a prominent guardian in New Orleans to being adopted by his uncle—the original Edmund Haynes Taylor—in Frankfort. Colonel Taylor explains how he learned the banking business first, giving him a unique financial insight into the successes and failures of Kentucky's early distillers. This business acumen, combined with access to the meticulous distilling notes of the legendary Dr. James C. Crow, set him on a path to revolutionize the industry. He details his trip to Europe to study Old World techniques, bringing back innovations like climate-controlled rickhouses and copper distilling equipment. He walks listeners through the founding of his iconic distilleries, from the O.F.C. and Hermitage to his ultimate masterpiece, the Old Taylor Distillery (now Castle & Key), a stunning "showcase" designed to be the birthplace of bourbon tourism. Along the way, he shares tales of his famous falling out with his one-time business partner, George T. Stagg. In the second half, the man behind the portrayal, Frankfort historian Russ Kennedy, steps out of character to join the show. Russ shares his own fascinating journey from being the "world's worst history student" to becoming one of Frankfort's most passionate historical storytellers. After a career with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife, a post-retirement gig as a tour guide at the State Capitol ignited a love for local history. He discusses how he developed his craft, first portraying Frankfort's founder, Stephen Frank, before taking on the iconic role of Colonel Taylor. Russ talks about his work today, leading historical walking tours by appointment, making special appearances as the Colonel at distilleries and events, and his involvement in projects like the Frankfort bourbon history documentary. This unique episode is a departure from the usual tasting format, offering a rich, story-driven deep dive into the life and legacy of one of bourbon's most influential figures.

Beth Lipman is an American artist whose sculptural practice generates from the Still Life genre, symbolically representing the splendor and excess of the Anthropocene and the stratigraphic layer humanity will leave on earth. Assemblages of inanimate objects and domestic interiors, inspired by private spaces and public collections, propose portraits of individuals, institutions, and societies.  Through works in glass, wood, metal, photography, and video, Lipman presents a meditation on our relationship to Deep Time, a monumental time scale based on geologic events that minimizes human lives. Each installation is a reimagining of history, created by placing cycles often separated by millenia in proximity, from the ancient botanical to the cultural. The incorporation of prehistoric flora alludes to the impermanence of the present and the persistence of life. The ephemera of the Anthropocene becomes a symbol of fragility as the human species is placed on a continuum where time eradicates hierarchy. Lipman has exhibited her work internationally at such institutions as the Ringling Museum of Art (FL), ICA/MECA (ME), RISD Museum (RI), Milwaukee Art Museum (WI), Gustavsbergs Konsthall(Sweden) and the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum (DC). Her work has been acquired by numerous museums including the North Carolina Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum of Art (NY), Kemper Museum for Contemporary Art (MO), Smithsonian American Art Museum (DC), Jewish Museum (NY), Norton Museum of Art, (FL), and the Corning Museum of Glass (NY).  Lipman has received numerous awards including a USA Berman Bloch Fellowship, Pollock Krasner Grant, Virginia Groot Foundation Grant, and a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Grant. She has been an Artist in Residence at the Alturas Foundation, the John Michael Kohler Arts Center's Arts/Industry Program, and the Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship. Recent works include Living History, a large-scale site-specific commission for the Wichita Art Museum (KS) that investigates the nature of time and place and Belonging(s), a sculptural response to the life of Abigail Levy Franks for the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art (AR). Lipman's work is on view now in three independent installations including: Hive Mind at Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa; ReGift at the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA), Toledo, Ohio; and the permanent installation One's-Self I Sing at theMuskegon Museum of Art (MMA), Muskegon, Michigan. To celebrate the official unveiling of One's-Self I Sing, the MMA is hosting an Artist Talk and Unveiling Reception this Thursday, July 17 at 7 p.m. The event is open to the public and free to attend. Find out more at www.muskegonartmuseum.org Suspended in the museum's central atrium, the sculpture explores the interconnectedness of time, culture, and nature through materials such as glass, wood, metal and gypsum. Measuring approximately 240 x 120 x 60 inches, One's-Self I Sing functions as an “exploded” still life – an expansive, suspended constellation of objects that invites viewers to reflect on humanity's place within Deep Time and the Anthropocene. Says Lipman: “The marriage of transparent and opaque forms alludes to what is seen and known juxtaposed with what is concealed and lost over time.” The sculpture spans both floors of the museum, encouraging viewers to encounter it from multiple vantage points. Braided suspension cables carry the piece vertically through space, suggesting both ascent and descent, growth and entropy. Lipman incorporates subtle visual references to the Muskegon Museum of Art's permanent collection, binding the sculpture to the museum's history while extending its meaning outward across time. “One's Self I Sing is a showstopping first impression when visitors walk into the museum,” says Kirk Hallman, Executive Director of the Muskegon Museum of Art. “It's a powerful and visually stunning complement to the museum's new Bennett Schmidt Pavilion and a bold reflection of the MMA's ongoing commitment to celebrating women artists.” Enjoy this conversation with Lipman about current installations, artistic motivations and the behind the scenes challenges of creating site-specific work that communicates to viewers.

More than just a bottle shop, Revival represents the preservation of whiskey heritage, offering enthusiasts the chance to taste spirits that most people only read about in books.The conversation delves deep into what makes "dusty" bottles special – those time capsules of whiskey history featuring tax strips from before 1984 that capture production methods long since abandoned.

We explore the delicate art of bottle assessment, learning how clarity, fill level, and label condition impact both value and the drinking experience.What sets Revival apart is its commitment to accessibility. While some establishments might charge $1,000 per ounce for pre-Prohibition whiskey, Brad shares stories of offering quarter-ounce pours for $40, allowing hundreds of people to experience liquid history.

Long before the Keweenaw Peninsula became a destination for hikers, bikers, and Lake Superior rock hounds, it was the stage for a national copper rush. Shortly after Michigan became a state in 1837,  Geologist Douglas Houghton was sent to Copper Harbor to explore reports from Native Americans about copper in the region. By 1844, Fort Wilkins was built to be the military base helping to keep the peace as fortune-seekers came to the state's most northern port. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Barry James, Upper Peninsula historian with the Michigan History Center, about the fascinating past—and present—of this historic state park. From the 1840s copper rush chaos to Civil War reenactments, as well as lighthouse tours and tales of shipwrecks, Fort Wilkins remains a living classroom with extensive youth programs. Join us as we explore the enduring significance of this frontier fort—and the people working to keep its stories alive.Key Takeaways:Fort Wilkins was built in the mid-19th century in Copper Harbor to maintain law and order during the copper rush.The fort served as a frontier military post, supporting mining operations and maritime navigation in one of the most remote regions of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.The Copper Harbor Lighthouse and range lights were established in response to early shipwrecks, including the 1844 wreck of the John Jacob Astor, which supplied Fort Wilkins.Today, Fort Wilkins Historic State Park is part of the Keweenaw National Historical Park's heritage site network and offers youth camps, Civil War reenactments, and public education programs.Barry James and the Michigan History Center are working to expand exhibits, including a new display on how Fort Wilkins became a state park in 1923.Notable Quotes:“What it really represents is an excellent example of a mid-19th century military post as the United States was expanding westward.”“The Astor was the first wreck on Lake Superior in 1844. The military realized that their lifeline could be easily snapped.”“We also offer a living history program that's been ongoing since 1976, where we have costumed interpreters within the fort that represent the last occupation at Fort Wilkins, the summer of 1870.”“We've got 19 buildings on site, but 12 are original, dating back to the 1840s. So people can go into these buildings, look at the exhibits. We have period rooms with furniture and interpretation of the period.”“To get on the National Register of Historic Places, you really have to have something significant with the historic site, so that says enough right there.”Resources:Fort Wilkins Historic State Park: https://www.michigan.gov/mhc/museums/fwchl Michigan History Center: https://www.michigan.gov/mhcKeweenaw National Historical Park: https://www.nps.gov/keweConnect With Us:Website: https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/national-parks-of-lake-superior-foundationSponsors:Cafe Imports: Supporting environmental sustainability in coffee-growing regions since 1993.
