Podcasts about professors

First, let's get this clear - typing with a smashed finger is hard.  On the plus side, it's not Vaughn's finger, which is now missing (keep your hands inside the truck on-trail).  Another warning: seatbelts are good (especially when Audiots are known to be in the area).  This episode's one of those gearhead-sink specials, where everything is interesting and there's too much geek goodness for one (Garage) hour.  We've got black paint on Scott's 911 and Ryan's B6, black music (does Black Sabbath quality?), Ferrari missing the electric-car boat in the most expensive (and ugliest) way possible (...introducing the Ferrari Aztek!), a fix for politicians who missed the Freedom Train and were trying to put spyware in new cars (can't flee the mutant eskimo polar deer monsters if the car won't start), and a bit of an over-the-shoulder anniversary look at the hypnotic tale of a man who couldn't take it any longer, so he built a tank out a bulldozer. There's also a 787 that narrowly missed FALLING on the runway-lights guy, technology (still not on our side), the robin that keeps pooping on the mailbox, and the Professors (not the Torquays - next time).

Boken heter "Drömfabriken - en professors betraktelser" och gäst är författaren Magnus Dahlstedt.Det här är egentligen ingen bok i traditionell bemärkelse. Innehållet är från början Magnus dagliga anteckningar under valåret 2022. Dagboksanteckningar inte var tänkta att skrivas för någon annan, men som blev en bok. Anteckningarna kommer utav Magnus frustration över utvecklingen som skett inom såväl akademin och politiken som i samhället i stort. Frågor som diskuteras i programmet är bl.a: Hur har den politiska samhällsutvecklingen haft en negativ inverkan på akademi och forskning? Varför premieras inte nyfikenhet inom akademi och forskning? Varför och på vilket sätt borde det akademiska systemet, och inte minst de syrande incitamenten, förändras? Vi pratar också om att göra en klassresa och rollen som professor.

In 2024, the Atlantic ran a splashy feature titled "The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books." Professors at the Ivy League and at other elite universities reported that their students, among the most credentialed young people in the country, could no longer make their way through a whole book. One Columbia professor described his bewilderment when a student told him she had never once been assigned a full book in high school. At Tikvah we work with hundreds of educators, and they have observed that it's not only the skill of reading that is in decline; it's also the culture around reading, the patience and attention and habits of the mind that really important books demand. That is where Rabbi Mark Gottlieb begins the conversation you are about to hear. Rabbi Gottlieb has been a guest on the Tikvah Podcast before. He is a senior adviser and treasured colleague at Tikvah, and the head of school at the Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson School in Las Vegas, Nevada. At the most recent Marom conference, the annual Tikvah gathering of Jewish day-school leaders, he sat down with Shilo Brooks for a session called "A Republic of Readers: Why Great Books Make Good Citizens." Dr. Brooks runs the George W. Bush Presidential Center and hosts the Free Press podcast Old School. He is also living proof of the stakes. As he tells it, the great books did not merely educate him. They saved his life. Tikvah does not want simply want to air complaints about how the culture of reading has eroded, but to do something about it. This summer, Tikvah Online Academy is running a series of book-clubs for rising sixth, seventh, and eighth graders, live over Zoom. They will tackle The Hobbit, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Phantom Tollbooth, Tom Sawyer, The Life of Frederick Douglass, and more. Applications are open now at Tikvah.org/TOA. This episode of The Tikvah Podcast is generously sponsored by Ilene and David Siscovick and family.

El Departament d'Educaci

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for June 3, 2026. We open with the numbers behind Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill that the media isn't telling you — 96% of taxpayers receiving a tax cut earned less than $200,000 a year, 70% earned less than $100,000, and households between $50,000 and $100,000 received an average reduction of over $815. We dig into what those numbers actually represent — 29 million filers claiming no tax on overtime, 7.5 million claiming no tax on tips, 35 million seniors claiming the enhanced senior deduction, 40 million families claiming the enhanced child tax credit, and 127 million taxpayers claiming the doubled standard deduction. We also explain why a tax code is more than a collection of rates — it's a statement about what a government chooses to encourage, and when you tax work and savings and punish overtime, you get less of all three. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an emergency ruling allowing Alabama to proceed with its congressional maps — overruling lower courts that had blocked the state from using the old map even after the Supreme Court itself had reversed its earlier ruling requiring minority-majority districts. Then longtime CBS News anchor Scott Pelley was fired after publicly confronting the new 60 Minutes executive producer at a staff meeting, calling him unqualified and accusing CBS News leadership of trying to kill the show — and refusing to make peace afterward. We note that anyone who refuses to acknowledge there has been a bias problem at CBS News is not capable of being part of fixing it. And Samsung announced it is moving its U.S. corporate headquarters from New Jersey to Plano, Texas — following ExxonMobil, which announced its own departure from New Jersey the week before. New Jersey has the highest corporate income tax rate in the country. Texas has zero. We also cover Colorado Governor Jared Polis signing a law requiring college and university health centers to stock and dispense abortion-inducing drugs — meaning one of the primary services a Colorado college campus must now provide is access to pills designed to end pregnancies. We ask what would happen if that same level of energy were directed toward helping pregnant students continue their education and carry their children to term. Our American Mama Teri Netterville joins the conversation on the California elections — where at the time of broadcast, Steve Hilton leads Xavier Becerra in the governor's race and Spencer Pratt trails Karen Bass in the Los Angeles mayor's race with about half the votes counted. We discuss why NBC was already telling viewers that mail-in ballots would push Pratt to third place before counting was even finished, why Brazil counted 124 million ballots in two hours while California is projecting 37 days for 10 million, and why the SAVE Act matters more after watching California's election unfold in real time. We also cover Democratic Congresswoman Camlager Dove shouting at Secretary of State Marco Rubio during a congressional hearing and then walking out before he could answer — and Rubio's perfectly measured response, which sounded remarkably like a man watching his wife leave the room mid-argument. We make the point that committee hearings have stopped being about answers and started being entirely about social media soundbites. In our Digging Deep segment, 1,100 STEM professors in California have written a letter begging the state to restore standardized testing after the University of California system dropped ACT and SAT requirements during the Black Lives Matter riots of 2020. The results are in — the number of college students whose math skills fall below high school level has increased nearly 30-fold, with 70% of those students performing below middle school level. Professors are being forced to reteach middle school algebra while simultaneously teaching college-level engineering and sciences. We explain why eliminating standards doesn't help minority students — it abandons them, and then blames the test for their unpreparedness rather than the system that failed to prepare them. We also cover a Breitbart roundtable discussion on America's greatest strategic advantage in the AI race against China — and the surprising conclusion that it isn't technology, military power, or economic strength. It's the human soul. Communism, by suppressing religion, individuality, and free will, has weakened the very thing that separates humans from machines. The founders protected that, and it still matters. For our Bright Spot, DHS Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen testified that the border wall is on track for completion from the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of America by this time next year — with all contracts out by end of month, a secondary wall being added in high-traffic areas, and a smart wall system that deploys drones the moment sensors detect a breach. We call it exactly what it is — a promise made, a promise being kept. We also note that Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut is now saying that 77 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump are ignorant and uninformed. We respond briefly and move on. And we close with Leah Wilson, who heard crows cawing around a rain gutter, called the fire department, rescued an injured crow, and held its claw on the drive to the wildlife center. The crow recovered, was banded, and released. A couple of days later, while walking her dog, a crow dove down and dropped a bundle of feathers at her feet. Now they bring her gifts every day. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

June 2 is a crucial date for many of the offices because of California's top-two system, where the top two vote-getters, regardless of political affiliation, advance to November. Peabo Bryson was a two‑time Grammy‑winning R&B icon whose voice defined some of the most famous Disney songs ever, and his decades‑long career left a major legacy in soul, pop, and film music. A growing push inside the University of California system has professors wanting to bring back the SAT because they believe students are arriving less prepared—but the issue is still unresolved and highly controversial.

In this episode of Status Check with Spivey, Mike has a conversation with Orin Kerr, a prominent law professor and legal academic who currently serves as a Professor of Law at Stanford Law School and a Senior Fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution. In his 25+ years as a law school faculty member, Professor Kerr has written 75+ law review articles, authored casebooks, and been cited in 4,500+ academic articles and 500+ judicial decisions, including several U.S. Supreme Court opinions. He has held tenured positions at Stanford Law, GW Law, USC Law, and UC Berkeley Law, and he has been a visiting professor at UChicago Law, Penn Law, and Yale Law.In addition to his career in academia, Professor Kerr completed two clerkships, including a Supreme Court clerkship with Justice Anthony Kennedy, argued before the Supreme Court, and practiced law for a number of years, including as a trial attorney for the Department of Justice in the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section and as a Special Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. He has a bachelor's degree in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University, a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University, and a J.D. from Harvard Law School. Professor Kerr discusses how law schools try to balance preparing students to be practice-ready with teaching how to think like a lawyer (5:49), what Professor Kerr sees as the “ideal” legal training (11:27), what professors actually think when someone messes up a cold call (37:58), how and when he knew he wanted to become a law professor (1:47), the “old way” and the “new way” that law schools hire faculty (3:41), advice for prospective law students who want to become law professors (12:32), the different types of law professors (12:51), every professor's least favorite part of the job (23:12), the built-in advantages that some students enter law school already having (32:48), Professor Kerr's most-read law review article (33:50), and more.They also discuss a video that Professor Kerr recorded last year, “So You're About To Start Law School: A Law Student's Guide with Stanford Law Professor Orin Kerr.” You can watch that video for free on YouTube here.You can listen and subscribe to Status Check with Spivey on ⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠.

(00:00) — Welcome and origin spark: Kiki's path starts without an “aha” and a teacher's nudge changes everything.(02:24) — First shadowing, open-heart: A six-hour quadruple bypass leaves her captivated.(03:48) — Type B and present: Owning a goal without over-planning in high school.(04:29) — Balancing D2 hoops and premed: Small-school community and time management pay off.(07:19) — Burnout and a late college switch: Signing in July and embracing a non-linear path.(08:55) — Making premed work: Professors, small classes, and athlete study groups.(10:03) — The grind of student-athlete life: Exhaustion, rigid schedules, and living by the calendar.(11:38) — What gave way: Long-distance friendships and less family check-ins.(13:24) — First app cycle misses: 506 MCAT, six-week prep, content over practice, and low volunteering.(17:17) — Reapplicant moves: Earlier timing, pharmacy tech year, and next-day secondaries.(19:54) — Widening the net: Adding DO schools and securing acceptances.(20:53) — Discovering HPSP: Out-of-state sticker shock leads her to the Navy.(23:39) — Parents' buy-in and commissioning: From doubts to pride; acceptance to October commissioning.(26:16) — Military match realities: Deployment risk and the “assignment” mindset.(30:29) — Final takeaway: Keep trying—“what's meant for you won't miss you.Kiki didn't have a dramatic origin story—no early illness or single defining moment. A high school anatomy teacher's question and a mesmerizing first shadowing of a six-hour open-heart surgery nudged her toward medicine. She kept living fully as a type B student who played Division II basketball, learning time management the hard way: rigid schedules, constant travel, and studying through exhaustion. In this conversation, Kiki unpacks being a reapplicant after a 506 MCAT and limited volunteer hours, what she fixed the second time—earlier timing, practice questions over rereads, quick secondaries—and why she initially applied to only two schools. She explains how medical transport and later working as a pharmacy technician broadened her clinical lens. When out-of-state tuition topped $80,000, she took a hard look at Navy HPSP, did her homework beyond recruiter promises, and chose the scholarship—even after getting off a local waitlist later. Kiki shares how she reframed setbacks, how much community mattered, and what realistically concerns her about the military match: deployment and accepting “assignments.” Her closing message to premeds is clear and steady—keep doing the work, stay intentional, and trust that what's meant for you won't miss you.What You'll Learn:- How a D2 athlete built time management without sacrificing premed- What went wrong in her first cycle and how she changed it- Why she chose Navy HPSP and how she evaluated the trade-offs- Ways transport and pharmacy tech roles expand clinical exposure

Show Notes: Ian McNeely talks about his academic path, including a PhD in History from the University of Michigan and a position in the Society of Fellows at Harvard. He met his wife at Harvard, and they both found work at the University of Oregon where they became professors. They raised a family and lived there for 24 years. In 2024, Ian moved to UNC Chapel Hill, where he continues as a professor of history and oversees undergraduate education.  The Society of Fellows When asked about the Society of Fellows,  Ian explains that he thought of it as a mystique during his undergraduate years. The Society was conceived in the 1930s as an alternative to the PhD, offering young men (later women) a three-year fellowship with no academic requirements. Ian attended lavish dinners and lunches with other fellows, including senior fellows from Harvard faculty. He met his wife at the Society, and the fellowship allowed him to convert his dissertation into a book, which was crucial for his tenure. Exploring  the History of Knowledge Ian explains how he and his wife co-wrote a book on the history of knowledge, covering various institutions like libraries, monasteries, and universities. He describes the different definitions of knowledge across these institutions, from written debates in libraries to scientific experiments in laboratories. Ian emphasizes the importance of institutions in defining what counts as knowledge. He discusses the role of vernacular knowledge and how it has been institutionalized over time. A Fellow's Activities Ian talks about his activities as a fellow. He describes his monastic approach, focusing on conversations with people outside his field. Ian interacted with particle physicists, art historians, and other disciplines, which broadened his perspective. He bonded with his wife, who is a medieval historian, over their mutual disdain for the Renaissance. Ian values the diverse group of equals in the Society of Fellows and the opportunity to explore various aspects of knowledge. The Politicization of Higher Education The conversation turns to Ian's current role as Associate Dean for Undergraduate Education at UNC Chapel Hill. He discusses the politicization of higher education and the challenges of the proliferation of knowledge. Ian emphasizes the importance of helping students diversify their intellectual portfolios to hedge against unpredictability, and he expresses optimism that AI will be a force multiplier rather than a replacement for human judgment and expertise. The Impact of AI on Undergraduate Education Ian believes AI will not replace human judgment but will be a force multiplier for routine tasks. He stresses the importance of communication skills, teamwork, ethical judgment, and aesthetic judgment in the face of AI. Ian advises students to use AI as a refinement tool after doing cognitive heavy lifting themselves. He emphasizes the importance of preserving curiosity-driven knowledge alongside applied knowledge, and he states  that rote-type learning will not be needed while high-level skills will be sought by employers.  The Changing Definition of Knowledge  Ian explains that, over the past two decades,  the shift towards justifying knowledge in economic or scientific terms, especially in the United States. He talks about the value of interpretation and judgement, and how he is concerned that students are losing the ability to do the cognitive heavy lifting of assessing research and determining the gaps in information. Ian's administrative career reflects his efforts to balance these two aspects of knowledge. Ian advises students to use AI as a refinement tool after doing their own cognitive heavy lifting, but he stresses the importance of taking time in nature to write by hand and give the mind time to think.  The Meeting of Medieval and Modern History Ian talks about the difference between his wife's studies in medieval history  to his own. Creative thinking plays a role in the study of medieval history where there are gaps in knowledge and errors of interpretation; this contrasts with Ian's field of study which drew research from  a high level of bureaucracy. He explains why he structured their book, Reinventing Knowledge,  to combat information overload. Ian shares his experience of empowering others in his professional life and giving up the desire to control outcomes. Ian also reflects on the importance of humility and the value of learning a new language to gain a deeper understanding of other cultures. Harvard Reflections Ian mentions Math 25 with Mark McConnell, which taught him rigorous thinking and precision, and he highlights a course on European Political development 1850 to 1950 by Peter Baldwin, which inspired him to become a European historian. Ian states that he  values the bridge between the arts and sciences provided by these courses.

Full Text of Readings Saturday of the Eighth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 352 The Saint of the day is Saint Joan of Arc Saint Joan of Arc's Story Burned at the stake as a heretic after a politically-motivated trial, Joan was beatified in 1909 and canonized in 1920. Born of a fairly well-to-do peasant couple in Domremy-Greux southeast of Paris, Joan was only 12 when she experienced a vision and heard voices that she later identified as Saints Michael the Archangel, Catherine of Alexandria, and Margaret of Antioch. During the Hundred Years War, Joan led French troops against the English and recaptured the cities of Orléans and Troyes. This enabled Charles VII to be crowned as king in Reims in 1429. Captured near Compiegne the following year, Joan was sold to the English and placed on trial for heresy and witchcraft. Professors at the University of Paris supported Bishop Pierre Cauchon of Beauvis, the judge at her trial; Cardinal Henry Beaufort of Winchester, England, participated in the questioning of Joan in prison. In the end, she was condemned for wearing men's clothes. The English resented France's military success–to which Joan contributed. On this day in 1431, Joan was burned at the stake in Rouen, and her ashes were scattered in the Seine River. A second Church trial 25 years later nullified the earlier verdict, which was reached under political pressure. Remembered by most people for her military exploits, Joan had a great love for the sacraments, which strengthened her compassion toward the poor. Popular devotion to her increased greatly in 19th-century France and later among French soldiers during World War I. Theologian George Tavard writes that her life “offers a perfect example of the conjunction of contemplation and action” because her spiritual insight is that there should be a “unity of heaven and earth.” Joan of Arc has been the subject of many books, plays, operas and movies. Reflection “Joan of Arc is like a shooting star across the landscape of French and English history, amid the stories of the Church's saints and into our consciousness. Women identify with her; men admire her courage. She challenges us in fundamental ways. Despite the fact that more than 500 years have passed since she lived, her issues of mysticism, calling, identity, trust and betrayal, conflict and focus are our issues still.” (Joan of Arc: God's Warrior by Barbara Beckwith)Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

What does it truly mean to be a “prodigy?” For the poet, professor and author of The People Can Fly Joshua Bennett, the answer is complicated. But maybe telling stories can help. In The People Can Fly, Bennett explores the lives and legacies of Black prodigies throughout history — including himself — by blending memoir, folklore and history into one book. In today's episode, Bennett joins NPR's Michel Martin to discuss how fatherhood and brotherhood expanded his notions of intelligence, and how The People Can Fly is both a reflection of the past and a hope for the future. To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Irina and Michelle enter the minefield of equality in romantic relationships, and in particular division of labor. Is it as simple as saying that both parties should have the same amount of free time and going from there? Does all labor count the same, regardless of how arduous it was or how well performed? The Dating Professors discuss how having children tends to complicate the equation, as does dealing with chronic health issues or the labor-related consequences of past individual decisions. Pull up a chair for some food for thought on a topic that affects everyone in a relationship!SOTI ep. 89: Having It All with Dr. Corinne Low Hosted on Acast.

Send Vikki any questions you'd like answered on the show!It's so easy to look back and beat yourself up about things you feel you “should” have done earlier, differently or not at all. That can lead to a spiral of self-criticism that's not only unfair to past us, but that also makes it really difficult to move forward for fear of experiencing the same regret in the future.

David Thomas: On Becoming a Playvolutionary for FunDave's CliftonStrengths: Ideation | Strategic | Intellection | Input| MaximizerDavid Thomas hosts the podcast The Fun Question and co-founded Professors at Play — the nearly-1,000-member "Playvolution" remaking higher education — and co-author, with John Sharp, of Fun, Taste, and Games (MIT Press, 2019). His work argues that play isn't ornamental or adjacent to serious work. It's a distinct aesthetic with its own structure: ludic form, ambiguity, and set-outsidedness. Recorded: Friday, May 8th, 2026

In parts of the Global South, political elites have framed LGBTQ rights as a foreign, colonial agenda. So should advocates abandon universal rights language in favour of arguments rooted in local traditions and anti-colonial sentiment? A new study tests exactly this question using survey evidence from Zimbabwe — and finds clear support for the local approach. Host Alan Renwick is joined by the study's authors, Phillip Ayoub and Adam Harris, both Professors in the UCL Department of Political Science. Mentioned in this episode: Rooting Equality: Testing the Effectiveness of Activist Frames Combating Homophobia in Zimbabwe by Phillip M. Ayoub and Adam S. Harris, British Journal of Political Science.

A big issue hangs over university students and professors, and that's artificial intelligence. There are some rules and guidelines, but professors are largely left on their own to determine how much they want to adopt AI or not – and that's created a wide range of opinions. Today, we hear from five Canadian university professors about how they're thinking about education and students in the world of AI. We speak with Amanda Perry, professor of literature at Champlain College-Saint Lambert and Concordia University; Matt Dinan, associate professor and director of the Great Books program at St Thomas University in New Brunswick; Sarah Elaine Eaton, professor in the Werklund School of Education at the University of Calgary; Adegboyega Ojo, professor and Canada Research Chair in AI Governance at Carleton University; and Mike Welland, professor of Engineering Physics at McMaster University.

Send Vikki any questions you'd like answered on the show!“Is my work good enough” is the million dollar question running through most PhD students' (and many academics') mind! In a sector famous for high, yet very poorly defined, standards, it's no wonder many of us spend a lot of time worrying about whether our work is good enough. In this episode, I chat about why this concern is totally understandable (spoiler - it's not your fault!) and why it can also be so debilitating. I suggest instead that you ask yourself “good enough for what specifically”. I'll give you a few options to consider and some pitfalls to avoid when learning how to decide for yourself when something is good enough. If you liked this episode, you should check out my episode on what to do when you get contradictory advice. ****I'm Dr Vikki Wright, ex-Professor and certified life coach and I help everyone from PhD students to full Professors to get a bit less overwhelmed and thrive in academia.

Held by God Through Every TrialBrandon Stover's story is marked by God's faithful presence through both unexpected joy and deep hardship. As he prepares to graduate from Cedarville University with a degree in special education, he does so with a heart shaped by struggle, strengthened by grace, and anchored in the steady leadership of the Lord.When Brandon came to Cedarville, he found much more than a place to earn a degree. He found a Christ-centered community that welcomed him, cared for him, and showed him the love of God in everyday ways.Through friendships, professors, and the ordinary rhythms of campus life, Brandon began to see that Cedarville was a place where faith was lived out. That sense of belonging became one of the sweetest parts of his journey. As he recently shared on the Cedarville Stories podcast, God's hand was evident in every chapter, gently reminding him that he was never walking alone.But Brandon's college years also carried deep pain.Just weeks into his first semester, Brandon's mom was involved in a tragic car accident. In an instant, he and his family were thrown into a season of fear, grief, and urgent prayer. So much felt uncertain, yet God met them there. He brought comfort in the middle of heartbreak and reminded Brandon that even when life changes suddenly, the Lord remains present and faithful.Then, Brandon faced a crisis of his own when he experienced an 18-hour seizure and was diagnosed with Functional Neurologic Disorder. What followed was not just a medical challenge but a deeply personal one marked by memory loss, uncertainty about the future, and the painful realization that life no longer felt the same.Coming back to Cedarville after that experience was humbling. Brandon has spoken honestly about the embarrassment he felt at first and the uncertainty that followed.Yet it was there, in one of the hardest parts of his story, that God's care became especially clear. Friends surrounded him with love. People who had simply heard what happened came forward to offer support. Professors met him with patience and compassion.In that season, Brandon did not just endure hardship; he experienced the Lord's kindness through a community that refused to let him walk alone.That perspective has deepened his calling. Brandon knows many students need more than instruction. They need someone who can look at them with patience, dignity, and hope and credibly say, “I understand.” His story has prepared him to be that kind of teacher.As Brandon steps into what comes next, he does so with a deeper confidence in the God who has already guided him this far. He is trusting the Lord to open the right doors as he begins looking for a teaching position, and he carries with him a compassion shaped by all he has walked through.Brandon's life reflects a quiet but steady truth: God has been near in every hardship, faithful in every unknown, and kind enough to prepare him to care well for the students He will one day place in his classroom.https://share.transistor.fm/s/6278ab34https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j19mCpGnerg

Discover the Spanish Infanta who reshaped Renaissance power from behind the throne.Step into the glittering courts of 16th-century Europe as historian Professor Magdalena Sánchez joins host Paul Bavill to rage against a stubborn myth: that women only matter in history when they command political power. Catalina Micaela — daughter of Philip II of Spain and Duchess of Savoy — has long been treated as a political footnote. But across 3,000 intimate letters, a forceful, devoted, and highly capable woman emerges: one who shaped diplomacy, managed wars, and commanded a court… while enduring ten pregnancies in thirteen years. Professor Sánchez reveals how Catalina: • Asserted her authority as Infanta of Spain, not merely “a duchess” • Governed Savoy during her husband's campaigns, acting as his lieutenant • Challenged ministers, criticised generals, and organised court life with precision • Maintained deep emotional connection through constant letter-writing and gift-giving • Balanced political influence with religious devotion and motherhood as central duties This episode uncovers Catalina's love story, her leadership, and the invisible labour of royal women — all of which historians have too often ignored. If you think only queens and rulers shape history, Catalina will change your mind.Further Listening from the History Rage ArchiveFor more on powerful and underestimated women of Renaissance Europe: • Episode 199 — Catherine de' Medici with Una McElvenna • Episode 232 — Ruling Queens with Elizabeth Norton About Our Guest – Professor Magdalena SánchezProfessor of History at Gettysburg College and author of: Infanta: The Short Remarkable Life of Catalina Michaela (Yale University Press) — the first major biography to spotlight Catalina's voice and legacy.

1. Virgil's Origins and the Rise of a Roman Poet Guest Authors: Scott McGill and Susanna Wright (1)Professors Scott McGill and Susanna Wright discuss Virgil's 70 BCE birth near Mantua and his rural upbringing, which deeply influenced his poetry. Despite his "country mouse" persona, Virgil's ambition took him to Rome during a period of intense civil war and political transition from Republic to Empire. The authors explore his professional path as a poet under the patronage of Maecenas and his burgeoning relationship with Augustus. This connection, initially forged over the *Georgics*, eventually led to the creation of the *Aeneid*, a work intricately intertwined with the era's political and social turmoil. (2)1650 TROJAN WAR

Bill Burnett and Dave Evans created perhaps the most popular course at Stanford, "Designing Your Life," and co-authored the book "How to Live a Meaningful Life." This conversation explores the intersection of product design and personal development. We discuss the loneliness epidemic, why there is no best self, curiosity as the gateway drug to wonder, the transactional world versus the flow world, and why the wisest people across every tradition all arrive at the same conclusion.
