Podcasts about Spanning

Spanning the continent from Hudson Bay to Louisiana, the early years of the French colony were hard, and the population grew slowly. For decades, Samuel de Champlain (1567-1635), the Father of New France, led the fight for its survival, faced its extreme challenges, administered its affairs, and took personal charge of its development.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss 'the greatest poet of his age', Thomas Wyatt (1503 -1542), who brought the poetry of the Italian Renaissance into the English Tudor world, especially the sonnet, so preparing the way for Shakespeare and Donne. As an ambassador to Henry VIII and, allegedly, too close to Anne Boleyn, he experienced great privilege under intense scrutiny. Some of Wyatt's poems, such as They Flee From Me That Sometime Did Me Seek, are astonishingly fresh and conversational and yet he wrote them under the tightest constraints, when a syllable out of place could have condemned him to the Tower.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the dance which, from when it reached Britain in the early nineteenth century, revolutionised the relationship between music, literature and people here for the next hundred years. While it may seem formal now, it was the informality and daring that drove its popularity, with couples holding each other as they spun round a room to new lighter music popularised by Johann Strauss, father and son, such as The Blue Danube. Soon the Waltz expanded the creative world in poetry, ballet, novellas and music, from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev to Moon River and Are You Lonesome Tonight.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the anchoress and mystic who, in the late fourteenth century, wrote about her visions of Christ suffering, in a work since known as Revelations of Divine Love. She is probably the first named woman writer in English, even if questions about her name and life remain open. Her account is an exploration of the meaning of her visions and is vivid and bold, both in its imagery and theology. From her confined cell in a Norwich parish church, in a land beset with plague, she dealt with the nature of sin and with the feminine side of God, and shared the message she received that God is love and, famously, that all shall be well and all manner of things shall be well.

The Writings of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln, acclaimed scholars Lucas E. Morel and Jonathan W. White assemble Frederick Douglass's meaningful and poignant statements about Abraham Lincoln, including a dozen newly discovered documents that haven't been seen for 160 years. Measuring the Man brings together, for the first time, every substantive comment Frederick Douglass made about Abraham Lincoln. Spanning more than three decades, this revelatory collection traces Douglass's complex, evolving assessment of the man who led the nation through the Civil War and emancipation. Readers will encounter the distrust and vitriol Douglass directed at Lincoln throughout much of the Civil War, including his anger and frustration with the president as he moved slowly, but methodically, toward emancipation. Douglass's writings also reveal how three personal interactions between these two great men led to powerful feelings of friendship and mutual admiration. After Lincoln's assassination—as Jim Crow laws and political violence gutted the hard-won rights of Black Americans—Douglass expressed greater appreciation for Lincoln's statesmanship during the Civil War and praised him as a model for postwar America.There is no one better than Frederick Douglass to offer a critical assessment of the Great Emancipator and savior of the Union. His reflections not only convey Lincoln's contributions to the nation but also teach today's generation timely lessons on how to fulfill the promise of the American republic. Measuring the Man sheds new light on the most critical period of American history and will transform the way we think about these two extraordinary leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Gregg Larson never set out to own haunted properties. With a background in science and engineering, Gregg was searching for land to host large-scale medieval events when his real estate agent led him to the abandoned Indiana State Sanatorium. Spanning 200 acres with over 120,000 square feet of buildings, the sanatorium had a dark history of tragedy and loss—and a reputation as one of Indiana's most haunted locations. A self-described skeptic, Gregg bought the property without giving the paranormal a second thought. But over time, his experiences and the stories tied to the grounds changed his perspective. Today, Gregg not only owns the Indiana State Sanatorium, but also the Historic Stark Saloon and Billie Creek Village—two other Indiana sites known for their paranormal activity. Gregg shares how he went from skeptic to steward of some of Indiana's most haunted historic properties. This is Part Two of our conversation.

Clark Collis is a British author and journalist best known for his long career at Entertainment Weekly, where he spent 18 years as a senior writer. Clark is the author of two major books on horror: You've Got Red on You: How Shaun of the Dead Was Brought to Life (2021) and, most recently, Screaming and Conjuring: The Resurrection and Unstoppable Rise of the Modern Horror Movie (2025).Screaming and Conjuring is a must-read for horror fans. Spanning the era from Scream to The Conjuring—with a final chapter capturing everything that's happened since—it's the closest thing we have to a definitive historical textbook on contemporary horror. At over 500 pages, it's surprisingly fast-paced, mapping the genre's waves, franchises, and creative crosscurrents to show why horror keeps coming back—and why it matters now more than ever.In this conversation, Clark unpacks horror's recent banner year, explores the genre's resilience, and traces the movements that shaped it over decades.On today's episode of The Nick Taylor Horror Show, here—without further ado—is Clark Collis.Show NotesMovies MentionedThe MonkeySinnersWeapons28 Years LaterFinal Destination: BloodlinesThe ConjuringImmaculateThe First OmenAbigailShaun of the DeadGrindhouseJimmy and StiggsBarbarianLong LegsThe MummyThe Sixth SenseThe Blair Witch ProjectStir of EchoesStigmataRavenousEnd of DaysResident Evil and 28 Days LaterSawBooks and ResourcesNightmare Movies by Kim Newman, recommended reading for earlier periods of horror historyThe Zombies That Ate PittsburghFollow Clark Collis at:IMBd: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6020968/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clarkcollisX (Twitter): https://x.com/ClarkCollisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clark-collis-98878840/

A rare mix from the critically acclaimed experimentalist. Lucrecia Dalt isn't your typical electronic artist. The Colombian singer and composer approaches music-making in the way a fantasy writer builds worlds. Over the past two decades, she's produced a catalogue that reads more like a bookshelf of strange, interlinked novels, each with its own laws, characters and textures, extending the one before it. Dalt's RA Mix is a fascinating entry into the series (and will sit comfortably with RA's recent archival playlist, Mixes From Artists Who Don't Call Themselves DJs, But Probably Should). Take the opening track, "Cellophane," by Beak>, the band led by Portishead's Geoff Barrow. The lyrics set the tone for the hour to come: "Now the wind has blown down / Now the truth is laid out there." True to Dalt's oeuvre, RA.1005 has little regard for convention. Kick drums and beatmatching are nowhere to be heard; instead, she offers a collage of inspiration, drawing connections across eras, moods and geographies. The mix includes the work of close collaborators (David Sylvian, Juana Molina and Niño de Elche) as well as excursions into psychedelic jazz (Lloyd's Miller's "Gol-E-Gandom"), sombre downtempo (Muslimgauze's "Enchante, Monsieur") and Korean pop (Leenalchi's "Magic Pocket). Spanning just over an hour, it unfolds like another chapter in Dalt's ongoing project of world-building through sound. @lucreciadalt Find the tracklist and interview at https://ra.co/podcast/1023

One of the most remarkable and unusual box sets “Tracks II: The Lost Albums, seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records have been released as a nine LP or seven CD collection. Spanning 83 songs - 74 of which have never been released in any form - Tracks II: The Lost Albums offers an unprecedented look into more than three prolific decades of Springsteen's life and work as an artist.Maggie's guest for this conversation is veteran Rock DJ Rita Wilde who shares her insights into the iconic Mr. Springsteen and this amazing release of his music.Seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records will be released for the first time this summer on the widely-rumored and long-anticipated “Tracks II: The Lost Albums,” coming June 27 via Sony Music. A set spanning 83 songs, "The Lost Albums" fill in rich chapters of Springsteen's expansive career timeline — while offering invaluable insight into his life and work as an artist. “'The Lost Albums' were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released,” said Springsteen. “I've played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I'm glad you'll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”From the lo-fi exploration of “LA Garage Sessions '83” — serving as a crucial link between “Nebraska” and “Born in the U.S.A.” — to the drum loop and synthesizer sounds of “Streets of Philadelphia Sessions,” “The Lost Albums” offer unprecedented context into 35 prolific years (1983-2018) of Springsteen's songwriting and home recording. “The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions,” Springsteen explained. Throughout the set, that sonic experimentation takes the form of film soundtrack work (for a movie that was never made) on “Faithless,” country combos with pedal steel on “Somewhere North of Nashville,” richly-woven border tales on “Inyo” and orchestra-driven, mid-century noir on “Twilight Hours.” Alongside the announcement of “The Lost Albums,” a first look at the collection also arrives today with “Rain In The River” — which comes from the lost album “Perfect World,” and encapsulates that project's arena-ready E Street flavor.We also dedicate our time together to our mutual friend, the iconic Jim Ladd. James William Ladd (January 17, 1948 – December 17, 2023) was an American disc jockey, radio producer and writer. He was one of the last notable remaining freeform rock DJs in United States commercial radio. We LOVE you Jim! ❤️Host Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo.

Ronan Wordsworth addresses a persistent recruitment and retention crisis in Five Eyes militaries, spanning decades. Younger generations, particularly Gen Z, favor STEM careers offering flexibility and better pay over military discipline. Militaries are responding with increased advertising, flexible service models, lateral entry for skilled professionals, and significant pay raises and bonuses. Low morale, stemming from unpopular past wars and perceived institutional guilt, also significantly impacts retention rates. 1870 GARDE NATIONAL

Spanning multiple decades, the friendship between Markus Guentner and Joachim Spieth started with contributions to Kompakt's Pop Ambient series in 2001. At the time, neither could anticipate how the future or their respective artistic paths would unfold. Over the years, both have been a guiding presence throughout their careers as they delve farther and farther into ambient and beyond. Striving for only the utmost quality in productions and expression of self. Coalescing in 2023, the pair combined their musical talents for their first album together titled, ‘Overlay' released on Spieth's label, Affin. Deep, rhythmic, and bathed in texture, it marked the next musical evolution and a harbinger of what is to come. Enter ‘Conversion'. The seven tracker builds upon themes established in ‘Overlay', a melding of layered textures and encompassing percussion, giving a sense of weight, heavy with emotion. Our premiere for today, Vortex smoothly enters the mind, with comforting pads, and a subtle uplifting notion. The warmth from the drone-like melodies is echoed into the steady muted kicks that provide an energetic boost to the track. Vortex, and in turn ‘Conversion' will be released on October 3rd via Affin. @guentner_spieth Write up by @huedj Follow us on social media: @itsdelayed linktr.ee/delayed www.delayed.nyc www.facebook.com/itsdelayed www.instagram.com/_____delayed www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

In an extended version of the programme that was broadcast, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the influential book John Maynard Keynes wrote in 1919 after he resigned in protest from his role at the Paris Peace Conference. There the victors of World War One were deciding the fate of the defeated, especially Germany and Austria-Hungary, and Keynes wanted the world to know his view that the economic consequences would be disastrous for all. Soon Germany used his book to support their claim that the Treaty was grossly unfair, a sentiment that fed into British appeasement in the 1930s and has since prompted debate over whether Keynes had only warned of disaster or somehow contributed to it.

In a compelling virtual roundtable hosted by Steve Gurney on the Positive Aging Community platform, three seasoned Aging Life Care Managers (ALCMs) shared their expertise and personal journeys on September 10, 2025. Featuring Samantha McDaniel of Aging Individualized (Maryland), Leslie Mason of Seabury Care Management (DC metro area), and Annette Murphy of Spring Point at Home (New Jersey), the discussion offered a deep dive into the holistic role of ALCMs, addressing real-world challenges like dementia care, emergency preparedness, and family dynamics. Spanning 14 pages of transcribed insights, this session provided actionable strategies for families and professionals alike.The panelists' diverse backgrounds underscored the adaptability of ALCMs. Samantha McDaniel, a solo practitioner with over 10 years in senior living, founded Aging Individualized to deliver personalized care across Maryland and virtually. Her shift from community roles to home-based support was driven by a desire to "impact change" directly where clients live. Leslie Mason, a clinical manager at Seabury since 2004, transitioned from teaching and pediatric social work after a chance hospital encounter with a care manager, now serving older and disabled adults in the DC region. Annette Murphy, leading Spring Point's home division, brought a geriatrics-focused career from therapy and social work, joining the field after mentorship from a national ALCM, seeking freedom to follow clients' needs.Annette Murphy clarified the ALCM role, noting that the term “Aging Life Care” is trademarked by the Aging Life Care Association (ALCA), requiring vetted members to adhere to a strict code of ethics. With backgrounds in social work, nursing, gerontology, or recreation therapy, ALCMs assess the “whole person”—physical, emotional, social, and environmental needs—crafting tailored care plans. Gurney likened them to “wedding planners,” “quarterbacks,” or “wing people” for aging, emphasizing their role in resource navigation and mediation. Leslie Mason added that ALCMs are “big thinkers” who dive into details to enhance quality of life, while the ALCA's eight knowledge areas (e.g., health, housing, legal) guide their practice. Families can find local ALCMs via the ALCA website by zip code.Dementia Care and Initiating Change (Samantha McDaniel): McDaniel noted a rise in calls from families struggling to start conversations with loved ones with dementia. In one case, a woman with mid-stage dementia, isolated and calling ambulances frequently, shifted to assisted living after McDaniel's questions about quality of life—“What do you wake up for?”—led to a self-initiated respite stay where she thrived. She emphasized ALCMs as mediators, helping families navigate resistance objectively.Young Onset Dementia and Dual Needs (Leslie Mason): Mason highlighted the growing challenge of young onset dementia (e.g., Alzheimer's under 65), where resources for older or middle-aged adults fall short. Seabury's information line addresses this “heartbreaking” gap, while she also supports parents of adult children with disabilities facing physical limits, requiring dual-age management.Emergency Preparedness as a Gift (Annette Murphy): Murphy introduced a crisis planning kit, mandated for Spring Point clients, covering evacuation plans, water shutoffs, and “go bags” with emergency contacts. Inspired by her FEMA experience, she framed it as a “roadmap” for solo elders and out-of-state families, addressing power outages and snowstorms. This initiative, expandable to all ALCMs, offers peace of mind.Handling Complex Family Dynamics (Tina's Case): Tina's question about a verbally threatening mother, despite a social worker's involvement, led to suggestions: home-visiting physicians for documentation, psychiatric crisis intervention if needed, and building a professional network. The panel urged assessing competence and risk, offering post-call consultations.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Dutch artist famous for starry nights and sunflowers, self portraits and simple chairs. These are images known the world over, and Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) painted them and around 900 others in the last decade of his short, brilliant life and, famously, in that lifetime he made only one recorded sale. Yet within a few decades after his death these extraordinary works, with all their colour and life, became the most desirable of all modern art, propelled in part by the story of Vincent van Gogh's struggle with mental health.

In September's VermontBiz, we focus on the Franklin County Economic Report. Even with its well diversified economy, Northwestern Vermont faces pressures from housing costs, labor shortages and most recently a reduction in visitors from Quebec. VermontBiz gets down and dirty with a feature on Vermont's iconic dirt roads! Spanning over 8500 miles, they contribute to the state's rustic charm, and are beloved by rural residents. But when historic floods hit, that runoff hits the waterways. We also look at the Construction industry which is still strong even as headwinds prevail. While some infrastructure projects feel like they will never end, all that work will benefit the economy… eventually! Finally — it's award time! We celebrate the 25 fastest-growing companies in Vermont over the past five years. All this and more is in the September Issue of VermontBiz. Serious Business...Serious News.

In this first of a series of episodes on healing, we speak with Nicole Nehrig, whose book With Her Own Hands: Women Weaving Their Stories (W.W. Norton, 2025) is a rich and intimate exploration of how women have used textile work to create meaningful lives, from ancient mythology to our current moment. Knitting, sewing, embroidery, quilting―throughout history, these and other forms of textile work have often been dismissed as merely “women's work” and attached to ideas of domesticity and obedience. Yet, as psychologist and avid knitter Nicole Nehrig wonderfully explores in this captivating book, textile work has often been a way for women to exercise power. When their voices were silenced and other avenues were closed off to them, women used the tools they had―often a needle and thread―to seek freedom within the restrictive societies they lived in. Spanning continents and centuries, With Her Own Hands brings together remarkable stories of women who have used textiles as a means of liberation, from an eighteenth-century Quaker boarding school that used embroidered samplers to teach girls math and geography to the Quechua weavers working to preserve and revive Incan traditions today, and from the Miao women of southern China who, in the absence of a written language, pass down their histories in elaborate “story cloths” to a midcentury British women's postal art exchange. Textiles have been a way for women to explore their intellectual capacities, seek economic independence, create community, process traumas, and convey powerful messages of self-expression and political protest. Heartfelt and deeply moving, With Her Own Hands is a celebration of women who have woven their own stories―and a testament to their resilience. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this week's episode of then & now, guest host Dr. Ben Zdencanovic is joined by Dr. Jennifer Klein, the Bradford Durfee Professor of History at Yale University, to explore Cancer Alley, the stretch of the Mississippi River between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana. Spanning roughly one hundred miles, Cancer Alley is densely packed with chemical plants, hazardous waste sites, and prisons, resulting in some of the highest rates of pollution in the country. Drawing together questions of environment, community health, and economic development, Jennifer considers how industrialization and environmental racism have shaped the lived experiences of residents along the Mississippi River corridor, while also illuminating broader debates about capitalism, geography, and inequality in American life.Jennifer Klein is the Durfee Professor of History in the field of 20th-century U.S. history at Yale University. Jennifer's research spans the fields of U.S. labor history, urban history, social movements, and political economy.  Her publications include Caring for America: Home Health Workers in the Shadow of the Welfare State (Oxford University Press, 2012), co-authored with Eileen Boris, which was awarded the Sara A. Whaley book prize from the National Women's Studies Association; and For All These Rights: Business, Labor, and the Shaping of America's Public-Private Welfare State (Princeton University Press, 2003)

What does it mean to supervise a bank? And why does it matter who holds that power? In this episode, Sean H. Vanatta joins us to explore the hidden machinery behind American finance, as told in his new book Private Finance, Public Power: A History of Bank Supervision in America (Princeton UP, 2025), co-authored with Peter Conti-Brown. Spanning nearly 150 years, the book traces the evolution of bank supervision from a patchwork of state-level oversight to a complex, layered system involving federal agencies, private actors, and political discretion. Sean takes us from the wildcat banks of the 1830s to the rise of the Federal Reserve, through crises, reforms, and the quiet work of bank examiners who shaped the rules behind the scenes. We discuss why supervision differs from regulation, how discretion has become central to managing financial risk, and what the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in 2023 reveals about the enduring tension between private profit and public responsibility. Along the way, Sean shares stories of forgotten institutions, colourful characters, and the surprising role of gender and civil rights in shaping financial oversight. Whether you're a policymaker, historian, or simply curious about how money and power interact, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on the institutions that quietly govern our financial lives.

Get ready for another in our Emmy Awards nominees mini-series. Today, Joshua Zetumer, showrunner of Say Nothing, joins us to break down his riveting adaptation of the book of the same name by Patrick Radden Keefe, which hit screens last year. Say Nothing offered a stunningly well-realised recreation of a tinderbox time on the streets of Belfast, Northern Ireland. Spanning three decades, it followed two real-life sisters – Dolours and Marian Price – whose involvement in the 1973 bombing of London's Old Bailey as soldiers in the provisional Irish Republican Army saw them sentenced to life imprisonment. In jail, the pair went on a hunger strike that became national news. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Josh tells me about approaching the story as an outsider, having grown up some five thousand miles away. We get into the show's portrayal of divisive real-life figures who are alleged to have committed terrible acts of violence, the hurt from which still resonates today. And you'll also hear about the theme of destructive silence that runs through this show - though for obvious reasons, Josh declines to say much about the shocking end to the series, which is currently the subject of a controversial court case.

In this teaching, we explore Psalm 123 within the broader context of the Psalms and Israel’s history. Spanning over a millennium, the 150 Psalms were carefully curated into five books, each reflecting key moments in Israel’s journey. Psalm 123 resides in the fifth and final book, known as the Psalms of Ascent, which captures the experience of God's people returning from exile to rebuild Jerusalem and reignite worship. This Psalm vividly portrays the posture of faithful waiting and hopeful looking to God amidst contempt, scorn, and hardship. Using rich imagery, it compares the people's gaze to that of a servant watching their master’s hand—patiently and expectantly awaiting divine favor. We unpack the historical backdrop from Nehemiah’s account, where the Israelites face ridicule and opposition while reconstructing Jerusalem’s walls, yet remain steadfast in their plea for God’s gracious intervention. The teaching also connects Psalm 123 to Jesus’ own experience, highlighting how He embodied this trust and grace even in the face of ultimate rejection and suffering on the cross. Jesus’ prayer for mercy amidst scorn reveals the profound mercy and favor God extends to us, encouraging us to adopt the same posture of reverent dependence. Key themes include: - The intentional arrangement of Psalms into historical and spiritual collections. - The Psalms of Ascent as expressions of physical and spiritual journeying toward God. - The dual imagery of God enthroned in heaven yet intimately near to His people. - The call to patiently wait on God’s timing and direction, trusting His sovereign hand. - The challenge to avoid distraction and apathy, and instead to actively lift our eyes to God in all life’s trials. - The ultimate fulfillment of these themes in Jesus Christ, who models perfect trust and mercy. Whether you’re wrestling with personal hardship, seeking a deeper understanding of scripture, or longing for renewed hope, this teaching offers a rich, poetic framework to engage with God authentically. Learn how to “put on spiritual eyes,” embrace a posture of faithful waiting, and discover God’s favor and grace in every season. * SPOTIFY MUSIC PLAYLIST -- https://tinyurl.com/fkzpkjwh * SERMON PODCAST -- https://tinyurl.com/2sn3msmn * CONNECT WITH US -- https://siderischurch.com/connectcard * MORE GOSPEL RESOURCES -- https://siderischurch.com/resources

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Emile Zola's greatest literary success, his thirteenth novel in a series exploring the extended Rougon-Macquart family. The relative here is Etienne Lantier, already known to Zola's readers as one of the blighted branch of the family tree and his story is set in Northern France. It opens with Etienne trudging towards a coalmine at night seeking work, and soon he is caught up in a bleak world in which starving families struggle and then strike, as they try to hold on to the last scraps of their humanity and the hope of change.

Episode 380: The tragic saga of an indigenous man named Stephen Kiyoshk is one of Canada's most haunting tales of crime, retribution, and the complexities of the justice system. Spanning nearly three decades, the case includes double murder, dramatic trials, passionate community involvement, and a final execution that left deep scars on Walpole Island and the greater Sarnia, Ontario area. The primary victims of this saga were Charles Nahdee and Adam Johns in the notorious 1912 double homicide, and, decades later, Jerry Blackbird, whose violent death in 1939 ultimately led to Stephen Kiyoshk's execution.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the German physicist who, at the age of 23 and while still a student, effectively created quantum mechanics for which he later won the Nobel Prize. Werner Heisenberg made this breakthrough in a paper in 1925 when, rather than starting with an idea of where atomic particles were at any one time, he worked backwards from what he observed of atoms and their particles and the light they emitted, doing away with the idea of their continuous orbit of the nucleus and replacing this with equations. This was momentous and from this flowed what's known as his Uncertainty Principle, the idea that, for example, you can accurately measure the position of an atomic particle or its momentum, but not both.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Napoleon Bonaparte's temporary return to power in France in 1815, following his escape from exile on Elba . He arrived with fewer than a thousand men, yet three weeks later he had displaced Louis XVIII and taken charge of an army as large as any that the Allied Powers could muster individually. He saw that his best chance was to pick the Allies off one by one, starting with the Prussian and then the British/Allied armies in what is now Belgium. He appeared to be on the point of victory at Waterloo yet somehow it eluded him, and his plans were soon in tatters. His escape to America thwarted, he surrendered on 15th July and was exiled again but this time to Saint Helena. There he wrote his memoirs to help shape his legacy, while back in Europe there were still fears of his return.

Melvyn Bragg and guests explore dragons, literally and symbolically potent creatures that have appeared in many different guises in countries and cultures around the world. Sometimes compared to snakes, alligators, lions and even dinosaurs, dragons have appeared on clay tablets in ancient Mesopotamia, in the Chinese zodiac, in the guise of the devil in Christian religious texts and in the national symbolism of the countries of England and Wales. They are often portrayed as terrifying but sometimes appear as sacred and even benign creatures, and they continue to populate our cultural fantasies through blockbuster films, TV series and children's books.
