This week, Danièle speaks with Helen Carr about how England fared in these wild times, what her take is on some famous Plantagenets, and why we need to take a fresh look at this calamitous century.You can support this podcast on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/medievalists

Just so everyone know, we have accepted a buyout from the Saudi government and Jared Kushner for $54 billion. Not quite as much as EA but it feels nice to be wanted. Also, apropos of nothing, the Saudi government has never done anything wrong and are great and glorious forever.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Bud Withers, longtime Northwest sportswriter and author of a new history about the Apple Cup - the annual cross-state college football rivalry game between the University of Washington Huskies and Washington State University Cougars. The first meeting of the two teams was in 1900, and this year will mark the 117th edition of the Apple Cup (it was cancelled a few times in the past due to wars and pandemics). Withers' book is called “Too Good to Be Through: The Apple Cup is Distinctive (and in Peril).” In this interview, he talks about the history of the game, and the recent conference realignment which has meant moving the game from late November to mid September, and which may mean it goes away entirely after 2028. This year's Apple Cup will be played on Saturday, September 20, 2025 in Pullman, Washington. Bud Withers spoke to CASCADE OF HISTORY on Wednesday, September 17, 2025.

The Maginot Line was a marvel of 1930s engineering. The huge forts, up to eighty meters underground, contained hospitals, modern kitchens, telephone exchanges, and even electric trains. Kilometres of underground galleries led to casements hidden in the terrain, and turrets that rose from the ground to fire upon the enemy. The fortifications were invulnerable to the heaviest artillery and to chemical warfare. Despite this extensive preparation, France fell to Germany in a little under six weeks. Eight decades on, the Maginot Line is still remembered as an expensively misguided response to obvious danger. In The Maginot Line: A New History (Yale University Press, 2025), Dr. Kevin Passmore presents a groundbreaking account reevaluating the Maginot Line. He traces the controversies surrounding construction, the lives of the men who manned the forts, the impact on German-speaking inhabitants of the frontier, and the fight against espionage from within. Far from a backward step, the Maginot Line was an ambitious project of modernisation—one that was let down by strategic error and growing dissatisfaction with fortification. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: Charles I's Personal Rule and the Scottish Revolt After dismissing Parliament in 1629, Charles I ruled personally, relying on figures like Archbishop William Laud and the Earl of Strafford. Their controversial religious policies and "arbitrary" actions, such as the Ship Money tax, generated significant opposition. The King's attempt to impose a new prayer book on Scotland in 1637 led to a revolt, ultimately collapsing his rule in England and leading to Laud and Strafford's arrests. 1661 OLIVER CROMWELL

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: Monarchs' Fiscal Struggles & Parliamentary Power 17th-century monarchs like James I and Charles I faced immense financial challenges due to long-term inflation and the rising cost of war, particularly with the "military revolution." English common law required Parliament's consent for taxation, forcing kings to seek funds from a "fractious" Parliament. Controversial extra-parliamentary taxes, like forced loans or ship money, sparked debates over royal power and people's liberties, notably championed by Edward Coke. 1658 OLIVER CROMWELL

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: The Gunpowder Plot's Enduring Legacy The 1605 Gunpowder Plot, an attempt by a small group of Catholics to destroy James I and Parliament, deeply shaped English politics. It fueled anti-Catholic paranoia, associating Catholicism with tyranny, foreign powers like Spain and France, and arbitrary government. This fear of a "popish plot" became a recurrent theme for the next 80 years, influencing decisions up to James II's reign. 1653 OLIVER CROMWELL

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: Introducing Revolutionary England: 1603-1689 The book by Jonathan Healey introduces James I and the English revolutionary times, from 1603 to 1689. It covers a period that was very violent and difficult to generalize about, leading to the Glorious Revolution. This era sponsored 18th-century peace, stability, and the building of the British Empire. The book aims to unify political and social history, exploring how 17th-century arguments influenced the founders of the United States. CROMWELL

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: Oliver Cromwell's Protectorate and Its Challenges After Charles I's execution, John Lambert drafted the "Instruments of Government," establishing Oliver Cromwellas Lord Protector. Despite widespread horror in Europe, Cromwell's rule brought stability to England, though it involved moving away from radical democrats and imposing Puritan values, making it unpopular. He refused the crown in 1657, believing God had spoken against monarchy. 1649

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: The Restoration of Charles II and Its Aftermath Following Oliver Cromwell's death in 1658 and a period of political chaos, George Monk led the army to London, eventually inviting Charles II back to restore stability in 1660. Reforms like banning Ship Money remained, and Parliament's financial power significantly increased. The Anglican Church reasserted control, leading to the repression and emigration of dissenters. Royalist revenge included the grotesque public hanging of Cromwell's corpse. 1649

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: James II, Catholicism, and the Glorious Revolution James II, brother of Charles II, converted to Catholicism, leading to a movement to exclude him from the throne during Charles's reign. Becoming king in 1685, James II alienated his natural supporters, the Tories, by favoring Catholics. The birth of his Catholic son solidified the fears of a perpetual Catholic monarchy. In 1688, Whigs and Tories invited William of Orange to intervene, leading to James II fleeing and the peaceful Glorious Revolution. 1649

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: New Model Army and the Regicide of Charles I Parliament reorganized its forces into the New Model Army, led by Sir Thomas Fairfax and Oliver Cromwell, promoting based on effectiveness, not social status. After their decisive victory at Naseby in 1645, King Charles Isurrendered to the Scots in 1646. Following further conflict, Henry Ireton pushed for the king's trial, leading to Charles I's public execution in 1649, a shocking moment for many. 1600 QUEEN ANNE, KING JAMES, WALES, LATER CHARLES I

For centuries, North and Latin America have been locked in a relationship of rivalry and reciprocity. From revolutionary dreams to imperial ambitions, their fates have never been separate. Speaking to Elinor Evans, Greg Grandin explores how Latin America has long shaped – and resisted – US influence, from critiques of the Spanish conquest in South America, to the Latin American leaders who influenced ideas of freedom and human rights in the centuries since. (Ad) Greg Grandin is the author of America, América: A New History of the New World (Penguin, 2025).

Preaching: Ben ConachanWhat is it to be a community? What binds people together? Over the ages, we humans have tried many answers to these questions—shared enemies, religious belief and ritual, political allegiance, common heritage, charismatic leaders and more. In times of instability, change and division, like our own, the questions take on a new life, as we wonder how we can imagine a common life together in a time of such division. In this series on the book of Matthew, we'll explore how this Gospel intends to shape a new community of shared life in those called to into the way of Jesus. Setting aside both empire and religious tradition, Jesus subverts king and kingdom with the open invitation to the kindom of God.Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon. If our sermons inspire you to ponder the sacred, to consider the mystery and love of God, and to live bountifully, would you consider supporting our work?

This new Comic Book Bears Podcast audio episode is a little bit different. We were down to two bears in the cave this week so we elected to use this time together as a "backdoor pilot" for Steve Mowry's new horror-centered podcast The Bear Cave of Terror. BCOT will be available in its own feeds going forward but with Bill Z as the first of Steve's guest co-hosts, we are thrilled to present you our discussion of the seminal 1975 film Jaws as it celebrates its 50th anniversary this summer! Jaws was the first wide-release summer blockbuster which changed the way films were marketed forever and established its director Steven Spielberg as a major figure in filmmaking! We discuss the book that the film was based on, the cast, the later imitators and (of course) the scares!!! However we still were able to get a little bit of comic book talk in as well, with the first issues of The New History of the DC Universe and Lazarus Fallen by Greg Rucka and Michael Lark from Image Comics getting the CBB chat treatment! So hit play and, for one hour and fifty minutes, DON'T GO NEAR THE WATER!

Listen on Apple Podcasts Listen on Spotify Dr. Phillip W. Magness is an economic historian and the David J. Theroux Chair in Political Economy at the Independent Institute. Magness' research has appeared in multiple scholarly venues, including the Economic Journal, the Journal of Political Economy, the Journal of Business Ethics, the Southern Economic Journal, and Social Science Quarterly. He is the author of several books including, most recently, The 1619 Project Myth, which is the subject of this conversation. Our conversation was wide-ranging, including an overview of the original 1619 Project of the New York Times, conceived of and edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones; how it was a departure from similar historical projects of the Times before it; the strengths of the 1619 Project; the particular shortcomings of the Project's claims about the economic consequences of slavery; the attempt by the 1619 Project to tie slavery to capitalism; the actual anti-slavery origins of capitalist theory, starting with Adam Smith; the anti-capitalism ante-bellum arguments in the philosophical defense of slavery; the flawed scholarship of the “New History of Capitalism” school; the Project's distortion of the importance of cotton to the American economy before the Civil War, and the strange rehabilitation of “King Cotton” theory; the criticisms of leading historians of the colonial and revolutionary era of Hannah-Jones's claims about the importance of slavery to support for the American Revolution in the South; the status of the “20 and odd” enslaved Blacks who were brought to Jamestown in 1619; the varied influence of the Sommersett ruling in the colonies; Lord Dunmore's famous declaration after the American Revolution had begun; Hannah-Jones's dismissive response to academic criticisms of her claims; that Hannah-Jones was correct in her assessment of Abraham Lincoln's advocacy of “colonization” as a solution to emancipation; the New York Times's strange unwillingness to correct its 1619 Project errors transparently, as it would otherwise do in other contexts; the explicit political and policy agenda behind the 1619 Project; the slow walking-back of some of the Project's most controversial claims via ghost-editing; the insertion of The 1619 Project in public school curricula; and how to develop a school history curriculum that does give a balanced treatment of the history of slavery and Reconstruction.

DID AMERICA'S REVOLT START WITH REGICIDE?   8/8: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Hardcover – by  Jonathan Healey (Author) 1650 REGICIDE https://www.amazon.com/Blazing-World-History-Revolutionary-1603-1689/dp/0593318358 The seventeenth century was a revolutionary age for the English. It started as they suddenly found themselves ruled by a Scotsman, and it ended in the shadow of an invasion by the Dutch. Under James I, England suffered terrorism and witch panics. Under his son Charles, state and society collapsed into civil war, to be followed by an army coup and regicide. For a short time—for the only time in history—England was a republic. There were bitter struggles over faith and Parliament asserted itself like never before. There were no boundaries to politics. In fiery, plague-ridden London, in coffee shops and alehouses, new ideas were forged that were angry, populist, and almost impossible for monarchs to control. But the story of this century is less well known than it should be. Myths have grown around key figures. People may know about the Gunpowder Plot and the Great Fire of London, but the Civil War is a half-remembered mystery to many. And yet the seventeenth century has never seemed more relevant. The British constitution is once again being bent and contorted, and there is a clash of ideologies reminiscent of when Roundhead fought Cavalier. The Blazing World is the story of this strange, twisting, fascinating century. It shows a society in sparkling detail. It was a new world of wealth, creativity, and daring curiosity, but also of greed, pugnacious arrogance, and colonial violence
