August 2025 On 15 August 2025 the UK commemorated the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, the day on which the surrender of Japan and the end of World War Two was announced. This was a significant moment at Bletchley Park as it meant the end of almost six years of non-stop codebreaking and intelligence work. For many it also brought an abrupt halt to years of training to learn Japanese and long journeys to reach postings in India, Sri Lanka and elsewhere in preparation for the upcoming invasion of Japan itself. In this ‘It Happened Here' episode we are joined by Bletchley Park's historians Dr Tom Cheetham and Dr David Kenyon to discuss how the Japanese war ended and the part played by Bletchley Park and signals intelligence. Our thanks go to Owen Moogan and Dr Ben Thompson for voicing our historical documents. Image: Japanese surrender aboard the USS Missouri.

One-Act Play Collections - Book 15, Part 3 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 15 Overview: Here, in our 15th collection, are 10 One-Act Plays for your enjoyment. They range from the mid-1600s to the early 1900s, from outright farce to bittersweet relationships, all short gems to make you laugh, cry, think, or all three. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

Slaget vid Gettysburg i Pennsylvania den 1-3 juli 1863 är kanske det mest kända slaget i det amerikanska inbördeskriget. Platsen var resultatet av att två arméer sökte varandra. Runt 300 skandinaver deltog vid Gettysburg.Vändpunkten i kriget hade kommit redan vid slaget vid Antietam året innan, men efter Gettysburg kunde rebellarmén inte längre föra kriget på sina egna villkor.Detta är det andra av två avsnitt av podden Historia Nu där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med journalisten och författaren Niclas Sennerteg, aktuell med boken Gettysburg – svenskarna som stred i amerikanska inbördeskriget.Det amerikanska inbördeskriget rasade mellan 1861 och 1865 och är det dödligaste kriget i USA:s historia. Slaget vid Gettysburg utkämpades under tre intensiva dagar mellan den 1 och 3 juli 1863.Den första dagen inleddes med att general John Bufords kavalleri lyckades hålla tillbaka de framryckande konfedererade trupperna. Bland de mest stridbara förbanden fanns Järnbrigaden, där soldater med svensk-norskt ursprung deltog i Michiganregementet. Dessa enheter spelade en avgörande roll i att pressa tillbaka sydstatssoldaterna och skapade oreda i Unionens elfte kår.Den 2 juli blev slagfältet ännu mer kaotiskt, särskilt vid platser som Peach Orchard och Little Round Top, där Unionens förflyttningar visade sig vara strategiskt avgörande. Samtidigt förvandlades det så kallade Wheatfield till ett blodigt skärselden av närstrider, där båda sidor led svåra förluster.Den 3 juli kulminerade striderna i det berömda anfallet känt som Pickett's Charge – ett frontalangrepp över öppna fält mot Unionens linjer vid Cemetery Ridge. Resultatet blev en katastrof för konfederationen. Angreppet slogs tillbaka med förödande förluster, vilket tvingade general Robert E. Lee att inleda reträtt – en vändpunkt som gav nordstaterna övertaget i kriget.Efterdyningarna av slaget var förödande. Uppemot 51 000 soldater beräknas ha dödats, sårats eller försvunnit under de tre dagarna. Fältsjukhusen var ofta kaotiska och bristfälligt utrustade, men vissa leddes av svenska läkare, som Dr Charles J. Nordquist, som försökte bringa ordning i kaoset. Många av de döda lades i provisoriska massgravar, en tragisk men nödvändig realitet i slagets efterspel.De som överlevde återvände ofta till civila livet. Flera av de invandrade soldaterna, både svenska och norska, skulle senare bli framgångsrika bönder eller småföretagare i det växande Amerika – en tyst men bestående konsekvens av det blodiga slaget vid Gettysburg.Bild: Slaget vid Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, den 3 juli 1863, skildrat i en handkolorerad litografi av Currier och Ives. Bilden visar ett avgörande ögonblick under det amerikanska inbördeskriget, där nordstaterna till slut segrade efter tre dagars blodiga strider.

Det tredje puniska kriget startade med att Kartago anföll Numidierna och Kung Masinissa i ett försök att stävja deras sakta maktövertagande i regionen. Trots att anfallet mot Numidierna blev ett fiasko, togs händelsen av Rom som intäkt för ett traktatsbrott, vilket ledde till att den romerska senaten beslutade att skicka militär bestraffningsexpedition till Karthago.Allt var nu upplagt för ett tredje, och för Kartagos del, avgörande krig mot Rom. Målet, den här gången, var inte att sätta Karthago på plats, utan att för sista gången helt och hållet slå ut den Kartagiska ekonomiska maktbasen, inkluderat själva staden i sig.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt det tredje puniska kriget och Kartagos förstörelse.Efter att det andra puniska kriget hade avslutats år 201 fvt. var den Karthagiska staten underkuvad den Romerska republiken. Det överenskomna fredstraktatet innebar att Karthago inte längre fick föra anfallskrig mot andra stater, och inte heller var de tillåtna att hålla sig med fler än tio krigsskepp. I praktiken innebar det att den Romerska republiken styrde landets utrikespolitik. Situationen utnyttjades snart av Numidierna, ett kungarike som kontrollerade stora delar av nordvästra Afrika och som tidigare varit allierat med Kartago.Kartagerna ville dock tillfredsställa Rom initialt, och önskade ingen konfrontation. År 149, när den romerska flottan anlände till Utica straxt norr om staden Kartago, erbjöd Kartagerna därför sina vapen och sina återstående skepp i en fredsgest. Efter att konsulerna krävde stadens evakuering insåg dock de styrande i Kartago vilka motiv som egentligen styrde Roms agerande – d.v.s. total förintelse. Nu påbörjades förhandlingar för att rädda staden. Slutligen övergick detta till en romersk attack och hårdknackat kartagiskt motstånd.År 148 tog Hasdrubal över ledningen i Kartago, en ättling till Hannibal, känd från det andra Puniska kriget. Under denna tid allierar sig Hasdrubal med Andriscus i Grekland, som snart kommer att kröna sig själv till Kung över Makedonien och motståndet stärks ytterligare. Det skulle ta tre år innan belägringen av Kartago avslutades och staden raserades. Mot Rom fanns lite inte mycket att göra. Händelsernas dramatiska skede överträffades endast av den samtidiga belägringen av Korinth i Grekland samma år.Kartagos förstörelse, men även utvecklingen i Grekland under samma tid, vittnar om en omläggning av Romersk politik mot en tydligare imperialistisk riktning under denna period. Kartago, precis som resterande grekiska stadsstater, skulle inom kort förlora sin relativa självständighet och istället införlivas i den Romerska republiken som en provins styrd av en romersk prokonsul. I och med Kartagos förstörelse bildades nu provinsen ”Afrika”, och något självständigt Kartago upphörde att existera. Det tredje puniska kriget vittnar således om en intressant övergång från kontroll över klientstater, ”söndra och härska” och politiskt inflytande, till faktiska provinser kontrollerade från Rom.Bild: Romerska soldater som bemannar en katapult för en attack mot Kartagos murar, under belägringen som slutade i förstörelsen av Kartago 146 f.Kr.

När fredsfördraget efter första puniska kriget signerats 241 f.v.t. stod det klart att maktbalansen mellan den Romerska republiken och Karthago i grunden hade förändrats. Rom hade under det nästan 20 år långa kriget om Sicilien under det första puniska kriget utvecklats till en sjömakt i medelhavsområdet, medans Karthago hade förlorat sin flotta, blivit tvungna att betala ett enormt skadestånd, och politiskt och symboliskt förnedrats i grunden. På land hade dock Karthago egentligen inte besegrats av Rom, och snart föddes en idé i Karthago om att via fastlandet istället nå Rom och därigenom ta revansch. Särskilt angelägen var den unge Hannibal som ville hämnas sin fars och Karthagos öde.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt det andra puniska kriget.Mycket talade för att Rom skulle vara känsligt om det anfölls norrifrån. Under perioden mellan det första och andra puniska kriget kämpade den romerska republiken med att freda de med Rom numera allierade stadsstaterna från de keltiska gallerna i de norra delarna av den italiska halvön. Samtidigt hade Karthago allt mer etablerat sig i på den Iberiska halvön och därifrån byggt upp en maktbas med tillgång till både soldater och resurser. Genom att utgå från den spanska östkusten, och på vägen alliera sig med de keltiska gallerna tänkte sig Hannibal således att läget för en marsch genom den norra medelhavskusten, genom alperna, och ner till Rom var mycket gynnsamt. Med sig hade Hannibal ca 50000 man, varav 40000 var infanterister och 9000 bestod av kavalleri.Hannibals kalkyl skulle visa sig vara helt rätt. Trots att marschen genom alperna blev kostsam för hären lyckades Hannibal överraska och i grunden slå de arméer som den Romerska republiken lyckades uppbåda på sitt eget territorium. Vid tre avgörande slag slog Hannibal de romerska arméerna i grund, varav det mest kända är slaget vid Cannae, år 216 fvt. Att vinna slagen är dock inte samma sak som att vinna krigen, och under 20 års tid skulle Hannibal bli sittande i den södra halvan av den italiska halvön i väntan på ett avgörande. Att vinna stöd bland stadsstaterna och därigenom splittra Roms allianser visade sig också vara svårt när de förde keltiska galler med sig i leden. Hatet mot Hannibals allierade och rädslan för Roms repressalier var antagligen större än de fördelar en frigörelse skulle innebära.Rom beslutade sig så småningom att tolerera den Karthagiska härens närvaro och började driva kriget dels med gerillataktiker, och dels mot periferin i stället. Genom att slå mot Hannibals underhållslinjer, och till slut föra kriget till den afrikanska nordkusten istället, blev Hannibal snart isolerad och tvungen att lämna. Avsaknaden av en Karthagisk flotta som kunde understödja Hannibals krigsföretag visade sig till slut vara avgörande, samtidigt som Rom hela tiden förvägrade Hannibal något definitivt avgörande.Bild: Målning av slaget vid Zama av Cornelis Cort, 1567.

Under 1800-talet ökade bödlarnas anseende i Sverige samtidigt som dödsstraffet på allvar började ifrågasättas. Många av bödlarna på 1800-talet såg på sig själva som professionella yrkesmän som tog sitt arbete på allvar, men det fanns bödlar som söp och misskötte sig.Bödlarna på 1600-talet var dödsdömda som fick respit medan 1800-talets bödlar var statliga ämbetsmän där yrket ofta gick i arv till äldsta sonen. Trots den ökande professionalismen hände det att bödlar högg fel och gjorde avrättningen till en utdragen pina för brottslingen.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Isak Lidström, historiker aktuell med boken De sista bödlarna – Berättelsen om en yrkeskårs upplösning.Fram till början av 1800-talet var döden den vanligaste bestraffning för grövre brott, eftersom fängelse var ovanligt. 1734 års lag stadgade dödsstraff för 68 olika typer av gärningar. De flesta dödsstraffen har skett genom halshuggning, vilka utfördes av tillförordnade skarprättare eller mästerman som de också kallades.På 1600-talet var bödlarna själva brottslingar som dömts till döden, men fått respit så länge som de kunde hålla i en handbila. På 1800-talet var de flesta skarprättare yrkesstolta statliga ämbetsmän som kunde få beröm i tidningarna för hur de genomförde sitt dödliga värv. I takt med att allt förre dömdes till döden under 1800-talet kom några extra duktiga bödlar att utföra avrättningar långt från sitt hemtrakter.Under 1800-talet fanns det en skarprättare i varje län, men 1858 beslöt man att successivt minska antalet, allteftersom skarprättartjänsterna blev lediga. Den sista offentliga avrättningen i Sverige verkställdes 18 maj 1876, då Gustav Hjert och Konrad Tector halshöggs utanför Malmköping (Lidamon) respektive Visby (Stenkumla backe). Som en direkt följd av den utdragna avrättningen av Konrad Tector avskaffades offentliga avrättningar 1877.Landets siste skarprättare var Anders Gustaf Dalman (1848–1920) som under sin 30 år långa ämbetsmannaperiod genomförde sex avrättningar. Sista gången dödsstraff verkställdes i Sverige var 1910, då rånmördaren Alfred Ander som var både den första och sista som avrättades med giljotin. År 1921 avskaffade riksdagen dödsstraffet i fredstid och 1972 i krigstid. Någon seriös debatt om dödsstraffets återinförande har inte förekommit i Sverige i modern tid.Bild: Anna Månsdotter strax före sin avrättning. Skarprättare Dalman är mannen längst till vänster.

Det första puniska kriget pågick i tjugo år innan något resultat kunde nås. Kriget böljade fram och tillbaka. Medan Rom dominerade landkrigföringen på Sicilien och tvingade Karthagerna till gerillataktiker, dominerade Karthagerna till sjöss och såg till att landstriderna aldrig blev definitivt avgörande.Först när den Romerska Republiken lärde sig att hantera sjökrigföringens konst, byggde en stark flotta och fick vindarna på sin sida, skulle kriget nå någon form av slut. Det sista stora slaget under första puniska kriget år 241 f.v.t. var också ett sjöslag. I mars detta år, vid Siciliens västra spets, nådde konflikten sin kulmen genom slaget vid de Egadiska öarna, varefter ett fortsatt krig blev omöjligt för Karthago.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och historikern Martin Hårdstedt det första puniska kriget mellan republiken Rom och det puniska handelsimperiet Karthago, 261-241 f.v.t.Tiden efter Alexanders död 323 före vår tideräkning präglades länge av ständiga maktkamper mellan de olika kungarikena runt medelhavets östra delar. Det som en gång varit ett Makedonskt imperium under Alexander bröt samman i flera riken som slogs för att befästa sina positioner och få inflytande över viktiga handelsvägar.Det var huvudsakligen de östra och grekiska kungarikerna, Ptolemaierna och Karthagerna som utgjorde de huvudsakliga spelarna i denna maktkamp runt medelhavet. Under mitten av 200-talet f.v.t. kom dock detta att förändras radikalt. I väst klev republiken Rom fram och grep makten över hela den italiska halvön. Denna nya maktspelare skapade friktion i området som snart skulle leda till nya krig, krig som skulle leda Rom från att vara en liten stadsstat i medelhavets periferi, till att bli ett imperium i sin egen rätt.Krigets direkta orsaker var rotad i Roms expansion. Under 260-talet f.v.t. befann sig den grekiska stadsstaten Taras på italienska halvöns sydöstra spets isolerad och under hårt tryck från den romerska republiken. I desperation vände sig Taras österut till den grekiska kungen av Epiros, Pyrrhus. Pyrrhus såg en möjlighet till grekisk expansion västerut genom Taras bedjan. Republiken Rom visade sig dock inte vara någon lätt motståndare och snart var republiken och Pyrrhus involverade i ett krig som inte ledde någon vart. När Pyrrhus drog sig tillbaka förtvinade Taras under Roms tyngd och nu fanns inte längre några buffertzoner mellan Rom Karthago kvar. När sedan det karthagiska inflytandet över Sicilien kom i gungning var konflikten mellan dessa stormakter ett faktum. År 261 f.v.t. bröt kriget ut.Bild:Detalj från Ahenobarbus-reliefen som visar två romerska fotsoldater från andra århundradet f.Kr. Wikipedai, Public Domain. Hosted on Acast.

The Voice of Louis Armstrong My dad's favorite trumpet player also was an extremely popular vocalist. I have documented many trumpet players who have also recorded their singing voices during the course of this show. Rarely do they commit to a full record of it. And none were as famous for it. This musician popularized a singing style, while making some of the hottest jazz records in the 1920s and 30s with his trumpet. So, get ready to hear the gravely voice of the guy they called pops in Volume 240: A Singing Satchmo.

Grönlands historia, från dansk koloni till självstyre, har präglats av politisk kamp, kulturella motsättningar och sociala omvälvningar. När Donald Trump uttryckte intresse för att köpa Grönland sattes öns politiska ställning i blixtbelysning. De första inuiterna anlände för tusentals år sedan, och nordborna som bosatte sig där år 985 försvann så småningom. År 1721 grundade den danske prästen Hans Egede en ny bosättning.Nordens nationer fick sin nuvarande utformning under Napoleonkrigen i början av 1800-talet. Under 1900-talet utvecklades flera modeller för självstyre i Norden, grundade på historiska, geografiska och kulturella särdrag. Världens största ö blev en integrerad del av Danmark 1953 och fick självstyre först 1979.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Jan Sundberg, professor emeritus i allmän statslära vid Helsingfors universitet, om Grönlands historia, dess koloniala arv och den långsamma men betydelsefulla vägen mot självstyre. Sundberg är aktuell som medredaktör för boken Governing Partially Independent Nation-Territories: Evidence from Northern Europe, tillsammans med Stefan Sjöblom.Ålands självstyre, etablerat 1921 under Nationernas Förbunds beskydd, är det äldsta och mest långtgående. Åland har ett eget parlament, ett officiellt språk (svenska) och rätt att lagstifta i de flesta inrikesfrågor. Färöarna fick självstyre 1948, och Grönland följde efter 1979. Även samerna har etablerat sameting i Norge, Sverige och Finland med kulturellt självbestämmande.Grönlands självstyre skiljer sig från Ålands och Färöarnas genom sin geografiska storlek, sina naturresurser samt befolkningens etniska och språkliga särart. Till skillnad från Åland, som är en autonom region inom Finland, har Grönland ett kolonialt förflutet som dansk besittning. Självstyrelselagen från 2009 erkänner grönländarna som ett folk med rätt till självbestämmande enligt internationell rätt. Lagen gav Grönland kontroll över sina naturresurser, vilket särskiljer ön från andra nordiska autonomier.Napoleonkrigen (1803–1815) bidrog till en omvälvning av den nordiska maktbalansen. Danmark, som ställde sig på Frankrikes sida, drabbades hårt när Storbritannien bombarderade Köpenhamn 1807 och beslagtog den danska flottan. Efter freden i Kiel 1814 tvingades Danmark att avträda Norge till Sverige, vilket markerade slutet på den dansk-norska unionen. Freden förändrade det nordiska statssystemet radikalt och inledde en ny epok av nationell omstrukturering – något som också påverkade relationerna till perifera områden som Grönland, Färöarna och Island.Danskarna införde ett handelsmonopol och kontrollerade Grönlands ekonomi och samhällsstruktur. Kristendomen och det latinska alfabetet introducerades, vilket förändrade inuiternas traditionella livsstil och världsbild. Den danska administrationen begränsade inuiternas möjligheter till självständig handel, och moderniseringen gick långsamt. Grönland förblev isolerat från omvärlden, och inuiterna hade begränsade rättigheter inom det danska kolonialsystemet.Musik: Grönlands nationalsång, Nunarput, utoqqarsuanngoravit ("Vårt land, som blev gammalt"), skrevs av Henrik Lund och tonsattes av Jonathan Petersen. Den antogs officiellt som nationalsång 1916 och används fortfarande som en symbol för Grönlands identitet och kultur. Texten hyllar landets natur, dess historia och folkets stolthet över sitt arv.

Atombomben är det enskilda vapen som haft störst påverkan på 1900-talets militärhistoria. Kärnvapen är från andra världskrigets slut fram till våra dagar är fortfarande den avgörande faktor som sätter spelplanen för geopolitiken globalt.Atombomben avslutade andra världskriget och kunde ha fått ett närmast mytologiskt symboliskt värde i efterhand. Men i samtiden betraktades atombomben i stort sett som en fortsättning på det bombkrig som redan pågick, även om tekniken för att lösgöra sprängkraften i sig, var ny.Denna vecka får ny lyssna på ett avsnitt av podden Militärhistoriepodden som Historia Nus programledare Urban Lindstedt medverkade i tillsammans med idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt till den avgörande veckan i augusti 1945 då atombomberna över Hiroshima och Nagasaki avslutade kriget i Japan. För att fira detta hundrade avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden gästas vi också av journalisten Urban Lindstedt från Historia.nu.USA:s bomboffensiver mot Japan hade pågått under lång tid, och en avgörande faktor här var dels utvecklingen av B-29 Superfortress, samt övertagandet av Marianaöarna mitt i stilla havet.Inte heller såg man i framför sig att kriget skulle avslutas redan i augusti 1945. Striderna om Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Filipinerna, Guam och Marianaöarna pekade mot att den japanska kolonialmakten var helt och hållet inställd på att slåss in till döden, och om japanerna själva fick råda så skulle deras egna civilbefolkning också tas med i graven.För de amerikanska styrkorna var den strategiska bomboffensiven över Japan därför en del i en långsam förbekämpning som syftade till att mjuka upp, förhindra och förminska motståndet på de japanska huvudöarna inför en amerikansk landstigning.Atombomberna över Hiroshima och Nagasaki 6:e, respektive 9:e augusti måste därför sättas i perspektiv med de många bombräder som föregick, men också fortsatte efter. Atombomben betraktades också av vissa i princip som ett helt konventionellt vapen och som till exempel skulle kunna användas för att förbekämpa stränder inför landstigningar. Faktum är att konventionaliseringen var på god väg: man förberedde en tredje bomb som aldrig användes. En av andra världskrigets materiellt sätt mest omfattande flygräder genomfördes mot Tokyo bara 5 dagar efter bombningen av Nagasaki, vilket också visar att atombomben inte ansågs vara avgörande ur ett militärtaktiskt perspektiv för att få slut på kriget.Allt detta har konsekvenser för hur väst och öst kom att betrakta atombombens roll och funktion i det geopolitiska spelet under efterkrigstiden (läs gärna Michael Gordins bok Five days of august för ett fylligt resonemang om detta). Vi glömmer gärna bort att atombomben under 1945 fortfarande var att betrakta som en fortsättning på den bombstrategi som redan var i rullning, och som sådan hade den nya tekniken ingen funktion utöver den makt som flygvapnet redan projicerade, även om vetenskapsmännen från Manhattanprojektet ansåg något annat. Att kärnvapnen sen skulle utvecklas till ett geopolitiskt maktmedel som skulle forma hela resten av 1900-talet var då något helt utanför befälhavarnas och de allierades blickfång.Bild: Hiroshima i efterdyningarna av bombningen, U.S. Navy Public Affairs Resources, Wikipedia, Public Domain.Lyssna också på De hemliga svenska atombomberna.

Nazityskland och Sovjetunionen mördade under perioden 1933 till 1945 14 miljoner civila i ett område som innefattar östra Polen, Ukraina, Vitryssland, västra Ryssland och Baltikum. De civila offren dog inte pga krigshandlingar utan en genomtänkt mordisk politik. Koloniala ambitioner utifrån två totalitära ideologier slutade med skapad massvält, nackskott och gasning. Den amerikanske historikern Timothy Snyder kallar området för Bloodlands i en bok med samma namn. Han hävdar att vi måste utgå från territoriet för att förstå vad som hände.I samarbete med podden Historia Nu publicerar vi en intervju med professor Martin Hårdstedt utifrån boken Bloodlands av historikern Timothy Snyder.Två totalitära regimers koloniala ambitioner sammanföll i brödboden Ukraina. Sovjetunionens ledare Stalin valde att medvetet svälta ihjäl 3 miljoner ukrainska bönder i kollektiviseringen av jordbruket, som var tänkt att ge ett överskott som kunde användas för att industrialisera samhället. I den stora terrorn 1936 till 1938 var polacker och kulaker särskilt utpekade. 700 000 människor avrättades under två år för att säkerställa revolutionen.Adolf Hitler planerade att låta 30 miljoner människor svälta ihjäl i Bloodlands för att ge utrymme för en jordbrukskolonisation av Ukraina, för att säkerställa Tysklands mattillgång. När krigslyckan satte stopp för planerna inriktades dödandet framförallt mot judar som främst sköts nära sina hem än skickades till dödslägren i Polen.När Tyskland anföll Polen den 1 september var det första steget på vägen att besegra Sovjetunionen. På Östfronten fick tyskarnas fantasier om raskrig fritt spelrum. Massavrättningarna av judar började på hösten 1941 och fortsatte till 1944. Cirka 1,5 miljoner ukrainska judar dödades, och över 800 000 fördrevs österut.Bild: Einsatzgruppe mördar judar i Ivanhorod, Ukraina, 1942.

Dixieland Veterans My dad loved his Dixieland music. Even when he had no idea who was performing it. This is a perfect album for that mindset, because this budget label doesn't even get all of the tunes listed correctly on the cover and label, let alone tell us who's performing on it.

Should Chip Zdarsky's promotional magazine, Zdarsky Comic News, win an Eisner at this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con International ceremony? We brought the question to him directly, and as you'll hear, he rejected the whole notion of a nomination extremely quickly. Zdarsky is having a ball working on his free periodical every month. He puts tremendous time, energy, and thought into each issue. Still, as far as the category of Best Comics-Related Periodical/Journalism is concerned, he wants someone else to take home the statue, and “knows” that someone else will take home the statue. We shall see the results very soon. Zdarsky Comic News began as a lark, as most things with Chip Zdarsky do. He turned his back on social media, adamantly believing it served no positive purpose, especially when it came to promoting his comics. Zdarksy Comic News' primary mission was to inform folks in comic shops about what he was working on and give them a little chuckle in the process. Since the first issue, however, Zdarsky Comic News has become its own unique monster. The cartoonist is slowly building a staff around himself, and it's time to decide whether or not to kill the beast or let it grow into something larger and more significant. Through advertising, Zdarsky Comic News pays for itself, but it might need a little more to become the next Comics Journal, or its evil stepbrother. Shortly before the 2025 Eisner Awards, we spoke with Chip Zdarsky about his free pamphlet, and that's all we talked about, which seemed to surprise him. If you want more Captain America talk or Public Domain conversation, you'll have to go somewhere else. We were only interested in Chip Zdarsky's mad side-hustle and what he thinks about the current state of comic book journalism. You can find Zdarsky Comic News at your local comic book shop, and you should also consider subscribing to Chip Zdarsky's Substack.

När Sovjetunionen anföll Finland i den 30 november 1939 försvarade sig Finland tappert mot den Röda armén. Striderna blev bittra, men Finland lyckades behålla sin självständighet till priset av stora landavträdelser, tiotusentals döda och ännu fler skadade.Några som kom att glömmas bort i den heroiska kampen var de tiotusentals finska soldater som traumatiserades av sina krigsupplevelser. De fysiskt skadade blev hjältar, medan några av de traumatiserade avrättades för desertering och andra stigmatiserades som psykiskt undermåliga.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia.nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med professor Martin Hårdstedt om boken Sargade själar – De finska soldaternas krigstrauman 1939-1945 av Ville Kivimäki (f. 1976) docent i Finlands historia vid Tammerfors universitet och verksam inom Finska Akademiens specialistforskning för upplevelsehistoria. Det här är ett betalt samarbete mellan Historia Nu och Svenska litteratursällskapet i Finland.Tiotusentals finska soldater traumatiserades svårt under Vinterkriget, Fortsättningskriget och Lapplandskriget. Granatchock blev ett begrepp redan under första världskrigets skyttegravskrig. I de hårda försvarsstriderna i Finland under andra världskriget bröt många soldater ihop till helt förvirrade, skakande och ångestfyllda spillror – de beskrevs som omskakade.Bild: Maskingevärsplacering ca 5 km norr om Lemet 1940, okänd fotograf, Skytten på bilden är troligen Edvin Kallio.

In tonight's episode, we step into a story unlike any other—a slow-burning descent into a world that shifts beneath your feet, where nothing stays still for long and everything seems just a little too aware. Our protagonist wakes with no memory, surrounded by silence, and quickly learns that the rules of reality don't quite apply here. Support the Podcast and help it grow!

There's an old saying in the Hollow: Leave one plate empty. Don't lock your doors during the harvest. And above all—don't watch the scarecrow. This story lives in that kind of world—where memory can be dangerous, silence is a form of safety, and the wind always seems to know your name. The Harvest of Crows is old-world horror: not sharp or violent, but ever-present. Like something just beyond the tall wheat, watching. Support the Podcast and help it grow!

One-Act Play Collections - Book 13, Part 2 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 13 Overview: Here, in our 13th collection, are 10 One-Act Plays for your enjoyment. They range from tales of ancient Greek sailors to a story about early 1900 moonshiners; many short gems to make you laugh, cry, think, or all three. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

Mrs Thatcher's first term in office was one of the great get out of jail events. She came into office intent on braking with the Keynesianism and social democracy of the postwar consensus. She drew on the ideas of the economists Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman (both briefly discussed in this episode), with their championing of the free-market and, in Friedman's case, of monetarism. Initially, however, things didn't go well: unemployment soared, the economy shrank and even inflation, the very issue monetarism set out to tackle shot up. She maintained, however, that she had no intention of changing tack, declaring ‘the lady's not for turning'. By 1981, she was sitting on the worst favourability ratings of any Prime Minister since records had been kept.But then the economy started to come back from recession, helped by the fact that oil began to flow from Britain's North Sea fields, inflation fell, and her ‘right-to-buy' scheme allowing tenants of council housing to buy their homes proved popular. Nothing, though, helped her as much as the behaviour of two enemies.Labour kept up its drift leftwards leading to its split, with the Social Democratic Party launched by some senior figures leaving the party, most notably Roy Jenkins. In alliance with the Liberals, they represented a dangerous splitting of the anti-Tory vote.Even more helpful for Thatcher, was the invasion of the Falkland Islands – or Islas Malvinas – launched by the Argentinian junta under General Galtieri. By responding with military force, and winning, she was able to turn herself into a victorious war leader and a hero to many in Britain. Her approval rating surged to 51%.Suddenly, from someone expected to lose the next general election, she'd become a practically unbeatable leader for it.Illustration: British paratroopers entering Port Stanley – Puerto Argentino – in the Falkland Islands – las Islas Malvinas – at the end of the war against Argentina for their possession.

Maynard Ferguson's Hot Trumpet We now get to feature the second of two albums my dad had of MY favorite trumpet player. In fact, I haven't seen a rock band more times than I've seen Maynard Ferguson and his big band. This musician was known for his energetic charts, youthful big band members, soaring high notes, and most importantly his music education at the high school level. So, let's crank this up to a double high C and give Maynard the blazing, brass-heavy tribute he deserves in Volume 238: Maynard's Horn. For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.  Credits and copyrights Maynard Ferguson – Around The Horn With Maynard Ferguson Label: Emarcy – MG 36076 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album Released: 1956 Genre: Jazz Style: Cool Jazz We will hear 6 of the 12 songs on this album.

In Part 1 of our deep-dive conversation, I'm joined by one of the most influential visual storytellers in comics — Alex Ross. We begin with a look at Alex's current exhibit, “Heroes and Villains”, now on display at the Dunn Museum in Libertyville, Illinois. It's a stunning showcase of his iconic artwork, celebrating both the legendary figures of comics and the craftsmanship behind them.From there, we dive into Alex's work spotlighting public domain superheroes of the 1940s, and we discuss the looming creative shift coming in the 2030s, when characters like Superman and Batman may enter the public domain — and what kind of storytelling opportunities or chaos that might unlock. We also revisit Alex's graphic novel Fantastic Four: Full Circle, talk about his thoughts on the new Superman movie, and touch on his conversations with Marvel Studios creatives about the evolution of the MCU. Finally, we explore Alex's candid thoughts on the rise of AI in film and television, its potential dangers for artists, and how creators need to prepare for this rapidly changing landscape. It's a wide-ranging conversation with one of comics' true visionaries.

Nick Hobbs in conversation with David Eastaugh    https://soundcloud.com/nikolaigalen https://www.youtube.com/user/nikolaigalen/featured The Shrubs were an English rock music group, formed in 1985, releasing three albums before splitting up in 1989. Shrubs contributed Bullfighters Bones to the NME's famous C86 album. A further 12", Blackmailer followed towards the end of the year, with debut album Take Me Aside for a Midnight Harangue hitting the shops in July 1987. With the collapse of the Ron Johnson label and the indie distribution network The Cartel, several hundred copies of "Harangue" were incinerated, much to Hobbs' annoyance. Shrubs signed with the Hertfordshire-based Public Domain label for a studio/live 12", Another Age, and second and final album Vessels of the Heart, both in 1988, after which the band split. Hobbs went on to form Mecca, who toured the former Soviet Union with Nitzer Ebb and others, and subsequently Infidel, along with current Pere Ubu guitarist Keith Moliné and Nico's former drummer Graham Dowdall (a.k.a. Dids), at the same time carrying on in artist management. He carries on making music solo and with different groups under the name of Nikolai Galen.

Cold-blooded killer? Folk hero? Petty thief? Billy The Kid, who met his end on 14th July, 1881, was all of the above. His luck finally ran out in a dark bedroom in New Mexico, where his old friend, Sheriff Pat Garrett, ensured that he would be the one to live to tell the tale. Born Henry McCarty but also known by numerous aliases like William H. Bonny and Kid Antrim, ‘The Kid' was just 21 when he died, having killed at least four men. The media of the time glamorised his escapades, creating a larger-than-life persona that overshadowed the harsh reality of his actions—a series of thefts and fatal altercations driven by desperation and survival. In this episode Arion, Rebecca and Olly uncover Billy's most audacious jail escapes; marvel at his astonishing firearm skills; and consider the claims of those who have purported to be the famous outlaw long after his apparent death… Further Reading: • ‘Pat Garrett: The Truth About The Man Who Killed Billy The Kid' (Grunge, 2023): https://www.grunge.com/188477/pat-garrett-the-truth-about-the-man-who-killed-billy-the-kid/ • ‘Wild West Outlaw Billy the Kid: Who Was He Really?'

Kris Lefcoe! Filmmaker! Writer! Director! Musician! Friend! Delight! More! We have a great chat! You can have a great listen! About Kris, from her website: "Kris Lefcoe (DGA) is a Canadian-American director and writer based in New York City. Her work has screened at TIFF, SXSW, Tribeca, British Film Institute, Art Basel Miami, IFC and on the Sundance Channel. 

 Kris is co-creator, writer and EP of “Making Plans For Nigel,” a comedy series in network development with Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Mary Rohlich (“Atypical”). Lefcoe's half-hour comedy “Giving Up,” about a New York couple facing their own deadline to either ‘make it' or give up their dreams, won top prizes at Seriesfest and New York Television Festival, and just had a theatrical premiere at the Roxy Cinema in NYC. The series was executive produced by David Wain and developed with Imagine Television. In 2020, Kris made her network directing debut on the NBC comedy “Superstore.”

 Pitch-black comedy “Public Domain,” Kris' audacious audience-award-winning feature debut about a surveillance-based game show, was hailed as "creepy-funny and well-acted" (Variety), and "an assured debut" (Austin Chronicle). The film premiered at SXSW and was installed at Art Basel Miami.
 Lefcoe's stop motion short “Tiny Riot Project,” featuring a riot squad of corporate mascots in a violent face off with endearing anarchists, premiered at IFF Rotterdam, was installed at Galerie Tomas Schulte Berlin, Havana Biennale, and Art Basel Miami, then sold to the Sundance Channel. Her acclaimed Twilight Zone-esque short “Can I Get a Witness?” starring Scott Speedman, screened at TIFF, BFI and Anthology Film Archives.

 Kris' explosive music videos have garnered numerous nominations and awards, including the Peaches smash “Boys Wanna Be Her” which has over 3 million views on YouTube.
She recently won Best Director at New York Cinefest, and Best Director and Best Comedy at Deluxe Film Festival in Rome, for the sex-robot comedy “Technical Support” starring Aparna Nancherla and Courtney Pauroso, which quickly racked up almost million views on YouTube.  As a musician, Kris performs haunting original songs at live venues around NYC on a vintage keyboard she found in the garbage. Her first solo album will be released in Fall 2025. The advance single “Booked A Room” came out in 2024 with a hallucinatory stop motion video directed by Kris that premiered at the 2024 Tribeca Festival and just won Best Video and the Audience Award at San Luis Obispo Festival.  Kris is also a professor in the MFA Film and Television program at Stony Brook University, SUNY. In 2024 she created and launched the Post-MFA Pilot Incubator Lab to shepherd alumni into the industry. She lives with her husband and daughter in a long-forgotten borough called Manhattan."
