Send me a messageChris Green is The History Chap; telling stories that brings the past to life.The Battle of Oudenarde 1708, Marlborough's Forgotten Battle.The book I mentioned, and used as part of my research:"Marlborough: Britain's Greatest General" by Richard Holmes(This is my Amazon affiliate link)Ways You Can Support My Channel:Become A PatronMake A Donation"The Devil Must Have Brought Them" - The Battle of Oudenarde, 1708When French general Vendôme learned that Marlborough's army had appeared on the banks of the River Scheldt, he was incredulous: "The Devil must have brought them!" The Duke had marched 60 miles in just 72 hours to catch the French completely off guard.The Battle of Oudenarde, fought on 11 July 1708 during the War of the Spanish Succession, was the Duke of Marlborough's third great victory over the French - yet it remains probably his most forgotten. This video explores how Marlborough's lightning advance wrong-footed two quarrelling French commanders, how a future King of Great Britain had his horse shot from under him in the opening clash, and how French Huguenot officers tricked enemy stragglers into captivity by shouting regimental rallying cries in the gathering darkness.It is also a battle gifted by French dysfunction. Marshal Vendôme fought so furiously in the front line that he lost all command of his army, whilst his co-commander the Duke of Burgundy sat motionless with 60 battalions, refusing to attack. Watching from Burgundy's staff was the 20-year-old Old Pretender, James Stuart - serving incognito as the "Chevalier de St George" against the countrymen he claimed as subjects.Among the British regiments were veterans of Blenheim and Ramillies including the Royal Welch Fusiliers, the Grenadier Guards and the Cameronians - battle-hardened redcoats who helped Marlborough encircle 50,000 Frenchmen in what one survivor called a "vast horseshoe of flame."Support the show

Why do today's most powerful AI systems still struggle to explain their decisions, repeat the same mistakes, and undermine trust at the very moment we are asking them to take on more responsibility? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Artur d'Avila Garcez, Professor of Computer Science at City, St George's University of London, and one of the early pioneers of neurosymbolic AI. Our conversation cuts through the noise around ever-larger language models and focuses on a deeper question many leaders are now grappling with. If scale alone cannot deliver reliability, accountability, or genuine reasoning, what is missing from today's AI systems? Artur explains neurosymbolic AI in clear, practical terms as the integration of neural learning with symbolic reasoning. Deep learning excels at pattern recognition across language, images, and sensor data, but it struggles with planning, causality, and guarantees. Symbolic AI, by contrast, offers logic, rules, and explanations, yet falters when faced with messy, unstructured data. Neurosymbolic AI aims to bring these two worlds together, allowing systems to learn from data while reasoning with knowledge, producing AI that can justify decisions and avoid repeating known errors. We explore why simply adding more parameters and data has failed to solve hallucinations, brittleness, and trust issues. Artur shares how neurosymbolic approaches introduce what he describes as software assurances, ways to reduce the chance of critical errors by design rather than trial and error. From self-driving cars to finance and healthcare, he explains why combining learned behavior with explicit rules mirrors how high-stakes systems already operate in the real world. A major part of our discussion centers on explainability and accountability. Artur introduces the neurosymbolic cycle, sometimes called the NeSy cycle, which translates knowledge into neural networks and extracts knowledge back out again. This two-way process opens the door to inspection, validation, and responsibility, shifting AI away from opaque black boxes toward systems that can be questioned, audited, and trusted. We also discuss why scaling neurosymbolic AI looks very different from scaling deep learning, with an emphasis on knowledge reuse, efficiency, and model compression rather than ever-growing compute demands. We also look ahead. From domain-specific deployments already happening today to longer-term questions around energy use, sustainability, and regulation, Artur offers a grounded view on where this field is heading and what signals leaders should watch for as neurosymbolic AI moves from research into real systems. If you care about building AI that is reliable, explainable, and trustworthy, this conversation offers a refreshing and necessary perspective. As the race toward more capable AI continues, are we finally ready to admit that reasoning, not just scale, may decide what comes next, and what kind of AI do we actually want to live with?

Surely you have something better to do with your life, than listening to this podcast? There must be something else you could be doing, right now? Perhaps you have some paint to watch dry?No? Then let's dive into today's episode of The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast. We are not the go to experts. We are just two regular guys exploring big issues cold, with every conversation starting from a question sent in by a listener.The first of today's two listener questions comes from John in the lovely village town of Charlbury, in Oxfordshire, England. He asks, “We say making memories with loved ones is what matters, but what is their meaning if they die with us?”Stuart suggests that making memories is an active process, that inevitably has consequences, and those consequences affect other people's lives.William explains that when he spends time with people who matter deeply to him, he focuses on being fully present, rather than trying to create memories.Stuart explains that while people may make memories with those close to them, it's the ongoing shared moments that anchor them in the present, leaving a retained emotional warmth, that motivates future connection and sustains the relationship, even though that residual feeling is intangible.William believes that being present, in meaningful moments, with close friends and loved ones, provides strength in the moment and a reservoir of memories to draw on during difficult times. Ultimately, what sustains him most is the hope of seeing those he cares about again before he dies.The second question in this episode comes from the middle of the ocean, from Kev in St George's, Bermuda. He asks, “Are the drivers of aspiration directly connected to the drivers of reduced biodiversity?”Stuart believes that aspiring to something does not have to be unsustainable. He suggests that one could, for example, aspire to become a leading expert in biodiversity. The doyen if you please.William feels that the common idea of aspiration often involves wanting more than you currently have, which can reduce biodiversity because it increases consumption.Stuart suggests that blindness, or a lack of awareness, is a key driver of aspiration, and a factor in the reduction of biodiversity.William argues that overconsumption extends beyond material goods, to how we use land. He gives the example of Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, England, questioning whether such a large house and extensive grounds, for a single family are truly necessary, framing it as overconsumption of space, and resources.Stuart concludes this episode: suggesting that culture can influence both aspiration and reduced biodiversity, but the separation is complex. He explains that biodiversity can be affected indirectly. For example, damage along a bird migration route, can impact nesting sites far away. While some impacts are connected to aspiration, others are isolated, making it difficult to separate the drivers entirely. Overall, he concludes, that aspiration and reduced biodiversity are connected, but do not have to be.What do you make of this discussion? Do you have a question that you'd like us to discuss?

Renaissance English History Podcast: A Show About the Tudors
When Henry VIII died at Whitehall Palace in January 1547, England faced a dangerous moment. His heir was nine years old, power was about to shift, and the death of a king had to be handled with extreme care. In this video, we follow Henry VIII from his deathbed through one of the most elaborate royal funerals of the sixteenth century. We look at how his body was prepared, why his burial was delayed, how the funeral procession moved from Whitehall to Windsor, and what those towering candle-filled hearses actually were. Along the way, we examine one of the most enduring stories associated with Henry's death - the claim that his coffin burst open at Syon Abbey - and why that story almost certainly isn't true. We also explore Henry's plans for a monumental tomb and a perpetual chantry at St George's Chapel, Windsor, and why neither was ever completed. Despite the scale of his funeral, Henry VIII ended up buried without a visible monument, his vault unmarked for centuries.

Digital IDs and homophobia. Two huge topics co-hosts Stuart ‘The Wildman' Mabbutt and William Mankelow have attempted to tackle in this episode of The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast, the podcast where you, the listeners, send in questions for us to discuss.Stuart and William don't see the questions before recording and they usually try to relate them back to nature, the countryside, or the environment but you the listener often take us in unexpected directions.The first unexpected turn comes from this question sent in by Clodagh in Larne, County Antrim, Northern Ireland - “The Prime Minister in England has said digital ID cards will come in. What do you think about that? Some say it won't stop the migrants coming across the channel in the small boats which is the quoted aim, others say its design is to squash people who show images of themselves on Twitter with a St Georges flag saying they are proud English. Is the idea good for anything, or abhorrent to you both?”.Stuart doubts digital ID cards will have any effect on migrants, since the process they use isn't legal and operates through the black market, while William notes that consolidating all IDs into one digital system could create security risks. Stuart compares the topic of digital ID cards to Brexit, saying he doesn't have enough information to form an opinion, and it currently doesn't concern or affect him at all. It “ doesn't even flex a hair follicle on my back at the moment.” William on the other hand observes that those who find digital ID systems abhorrent see them as excessive state interference, often influenced by a simplistic reading of George Orwell's novel 1984.The second bend in the metaphorical road comes in the guise of this question from Steven in Port Carlisle, England - “Do the Homophobes out there realise Homosexuals come from Heterosexual stock?”William compares homophobes to racists, suggesting they are either driven by an agenda, ignorance, or both. He emphasizes that a person's sexuality only matters to him in the context of a romantic relationship; otherwise, it is irrelevant. Stuart suggests taking an environmental perspective, examining arguments on environmentalism or sustainability, and identifying where any hypocrisy may exist.What do you make of this discussion?

In this episode of America's Founding Series, Professor Nick Giordano tells the forgotten but urgent story of St. George Tucker, the revolutionary patriot, wounded war veteran, and constitutional scholar who warned that the Constitution would fail if Americans stopped defending its limits. From smuggling gunpowder for the Continental Army to writing the first major American commentary on the Constitution, Tucker understood that liberty is never self-enforcing. Long before the rise of the modern administrative state, he warned that power naturally consolidates, courts cannot be the sole guardians of freedom, and constitutional ignorance would be fatal to the Republic. This episode explores Tucker's life, his warnings, and why his lesson matters now more than ever. Episode Highlights: • The remarkable life of St. George Tucker, from Revolutionary War service and battlefield wounds to becoming America's first great constitutional commentator • Why Tucker believed citizens and states, not courts or bureaucracies, are the ultimate guardians of liberty • How Tucker's warnings about consolidation of power and constitutional ignorance explain today's government overreach

St. George's head coach and admissions officer Dwayne Pina joins Cory to walk through one of the most complete prep school basketball journeys you will ever hear. Coach Pina shares exactly what he looks for in recruits, how he developed Tyler Kolek into an NBA guard, what changed when St. George's moved from Class B to NEPSAC AA, and why physical tools now separate many Division I guards from the pack. If you are weighing AA vs single-A vs public school and care about both college placement and life after hoops, this conversation is a must-listen.
Our beloved holy Father Nicholas is, along with St George (and second to the All-holy Theotokos), probably the best-loved Saint of the Church. His numberless miracles through the ages, on behalf of the countless Christians who have called on him, cannot be told. He was born in Lycia (in Asia Minor) around the end of the third century, to pious Christian parents. His love of virtue, and his zeal for observing the canons of the Church, were evident from his infancy, when he would abstain from his mother's breast every Wednesday and Friday until the evening. From early youth he was inclined to solitude and silence; in fact, not a single written or spoken word of the Saint has come down to us. Though ordained a priest by his uncle, Archbishop Nicholas, he attempted to withdraw to a hermit's life in the Holy Land; but he was told by revelation that he was to return home to serve the Church publicly and be the salvation of many souls. When his parents died, he gave away all of his inheritance to the needy, and thereafter almsgiving was his greatest glory. He always took particular care that his charity be done in secret. Perhaps the most famous story of his open-handedness concerns a debt-ridden man who had no money to provide dowries for his daughters, or even to support them, and in despair had resolved to give them into prostitution. On three successive nights the Saint threw a bag of gold into the window of the man's house, saving him and his daughters from sin and hopelessness. The man searched relentlessly to find and thank his benefactor; when at last he discovered that it was Nicholas, the Saint made him promise not to reveal the good deed until after he had died. (This story may be the thin thread that connects the Saint with the modern-day Santa Claus). God honored his faithfulness by granting him unparalleled gifts of healing and wonderworking. Several times he calmed storms by his prayers and saved the ship that he was sailing in. Through the centuries he has often done the same for sailors who call out to him, and is considered the patron of sailors and all who go to sea. He was elected Bishop of Myra not long before the great persecutions under Diocletian and Maximian (c. 305), and was put in prison, from which he continued to encourage his flock in the Faith. When the Arian heresy wracked the Church not long after Constantine came to the throne, St Nicholas was one of the 318 Bishops who gathered in Nicea in 325. There he was so incensed at the blasphemies of Arius that he struck him on the face. This put the other bishops in a quandary, since the canons require that any hierarch who strikes anyone must be deposed. Sadly, they prepared to depose the holy Nicholas; but in the night the Lord Jesus and the most Holy Theotokos appeared to them, telling them that the Saint had acted solely out of love for Truth, not from hatred or passion, and that they should not act against him. While still in the flesh, he sometimes miraculously appeared in distant places to save the lives of the faithful. He once saved the city of Myra from famine by appearing to the captain of a ship full of grain, telling him to take his cargo to the city. He appeared in a dream to Constantine to intercede for the lives of three Roman officers who had been falsely condemned; the three grateful soldiers later became monks. The holy bishop reposed in peace around 345. His holy relics were placed in a church built in his honor in Myra, where they were venerated by throngs of pilgrims every year. In 1087, after Myra was conquered by the Saracens, the Saint's relics were translated to Bari in southern Italy, where they are venerated today. Every year, quantities of fragrant myrrh are gathered from the casket containing his holy relics.

On this day in Tudor history, 13 November 1537, England mourned its queen. Jane Seymour, Henry VIII's third wife and the mother of Prince Edward, was laid to rest in St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle. Her death twelve days after childbirth plunged court and kingdom into grief. Join me as I retrace Jane's final journey from Hampton Court Palace, where she gave birth and died, to Windsor, where her body was borne in a grand procession of torches, banners, and black-clad mourners. Discover: Details on the procession and service Lady Mary's role as chief mourner The city-wide mourning in London, with bells tolling across every parish And the poignant detail that Jane's heart and entrails were buried separately. Jane Seymour's funeral marked the end of a brief, brilliant chapter - the queen who gave Henry VIII the son he longed for and, in death, secured her place beside him for eternity. #TudorHistory #JaneSeymour #HenryVIII #SixWives #WindsorCastle #HamptonCourt #ClaireRidgway #TheAnneBoleynFiles
