It finally happened folks! The real world (not the MTV reality show from 30 years ago) finally slowed down and Mattie and Austin both covered a subject this week! You poor fools have to listen to both of us talk about something for a super long time again. Mattie starts us off by talking about the history of movie theaters, a shocking (but also completely expected) amount of pornography, smell-o-vision (thankfully NOT related to the porn thing,) and how to sneak a tray of cupcakes into a theater. Austin covers how the 1815 Mt Tambora eruption, the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history, is why Josh Gad played Olaf in Frozen. it tracks. I'm not crazy. well, not crazier than most people who host a podcast. Twitter: @onthetestpod Facebook: Facebook.com/onthetestpod Insta: @onthetestpod onthetestpod.com
10th April 1815: On a remote Indonesian island, a volcano, Mt Tambora, erupted. It was no ordinary eruption - largest in recorded human history and the largest of the Holocene (10,000 years ago to present). It ended up having an enormous impact on the climate of the world. But it also impacted writers, artists and painters in a multitude of ways. One of which is now helping us understand how the future is going to look. In the fourth episode of Our Changing World: Stories of Climate Change, Utsav crisscrosses from Mt. Ijen in Indonesia to Athens in Greece, to uncover a phenomenon which could change how our world actually looks in the future.To understand more about the intersection of art and travel, check out the followingEp 5: Art does not have to be boring (https://bit.ly/3mOPVVu)Ep 13: Beauty of Uzbekistan and the geometry box (https://bit.ly/3ovrcqS)Ep 15: Vincent Van Gogh and Uzbekistan (https://bit.ly/2TtkCTB)Ep 56: Indonesia to Italy: Art unravels climate change (https://bit.ly/32cakM6)Find more travel stories on #PostcardsFromNowhere with Utsav Mamoria.You can reach out to our host Utsav on Instagram: @whywetravel42(https://www.instagram.com/whywetravel42)You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.You can check out our website at http://www.ivmpodcasts.com/
In a programme first broadcast in 2016, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the impact of the eruption of Mt Tambora, in 1815, on the Indonesian island of Sambawa. This was the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history and it had the highest death toll, devastating people living in the immediate area. Tambora has been linked with drastic weather changes in North America and Europe the following year, with frosts in June and heavy rains throughout the summer in many areas. This led to food shortages, which may have prompted westward migration in America and, in a Europe barely recovered from the Napoleonic Wars, led to widespread famine.

In 1815, the largest volcanic explosion in recorded history triggered a chain of economic, political and health-related events around the globe. In fact, the eruption even managed to affect European arts from that era.
On April 10th 1815 the world experienced a near cataclysmic event - a volcanic eruption which burnt through as much energy in three days as the whole planet uses in three months' power consumption - in 2020. The statistics are shocking, and ultimately the eruption on Indonesia's Mount Tambora, would cost an estimated 10 million lives. It also acted as a prompt for a number of innovations that affect our lives today. Today's tale is the story of the tragedy of the Mount Tambora eruption, and the innovations it spawned. Yes, I am a little raspy in this one, my voice was feeling worse for wear from a niggling 24 hour cold - and worn from 8 hours on the phones... sorry listeners.This is episode 8 in the initial 8 episode run. I will be back in 2 month's time with the next season. - Meantime the blog page www.historyandimagination.com will continue to post weekly blog postings till my return (I have written 2 months' worth and scheduled them to drop 10am every Tuesday, New Zealand time)
The House of Yan by Lan Yan. Nonfiction/memoir. This is the true story of a family at the heart of a century in Chinese history. The author's family were part of China's elite, but that didn't do them any favours when the Cultural Revolution came along. As well as being her family's story this is also about the last 100 years of China, seen through a very personal lens.The Year Without Summer by Guinevere Glasfurd. In 1815, a supervolcanic eruption on Mt Tambora in Indonesia resulted in massive climate disruption causing famine, poverty and riots. This book tells the story of characters in Europe, Britain and America – none of whom had heard of that volcano, and none of whom could escape its effects, in a year when the world went dark. Definite parallels with modern times!

Environmental history #3 of 4. The 1815 volcanic eruption of Mount Tambora changed history. The year following the eruption, 1816 was known in England as the “Year without a Summer,” in New England as 18-hundred-and-froze-to-death, and “L’annee de la misere” or “Das Hungerhjar” in Switzerland. Germans dubbed 1817 as “the year of the beggar.” The Chinese and Indians had no name for it but the years following the massive eruption were remembered as ones of intense and widespread suffering. Scientists are, only today, uncovering the historical impacts of this ecological disaster. Suddenly we have climatic data which have reshaped our understanding of the events of 1815 and the years that followed. Now it is historians’ job to explore the social, political, and cultural influence of this catastrophic event. All this and more today as we explore the eruption of Mount Tambora in April 1815.
