Uncover the truth about revolutionaries who hijacked the 70s — and why they're still shaping our world today. Have you ever wondered what fuels radicals to become what we call terrorists? Jason's new book, The Revolutionists, digs into the mindsets, characters, and global movements that blurred those lines in the 60s and 70s. In this episode we discuss the way revolutionary ideas—whether left-wing, right-wing, or religious—are often more fragmented than we realise. No monoliths here, just a wild mosaic of factions, motivations, and stories. These figures shaped today's conflicts in ways many of us overlook—like Bin Laden's rise from the chaos of that era.Chalke History Festival is on from the 22nd through to the 28th of June grab tickets from https://www.chalkefestival.comGrab a copy of The Revolutionists https://uk.bookshop.org/a/14692/9781529934540 Keep up to date with Jason viaHis Twitter: https://x.com/burke_jason The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/profile/jasonburkeIf you want to get in touch with History with Jackson email: jackson@historywithjackson.co.ukTo support History with Jackson to carry on creating content subscribe to History with Jackson+ on Apple Podcasts or support us on our Patreon - https://patreon.com/HistorywithJackson?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkTo catch up on everything to do with History with Jackson head to www.HistorywithJackson.co.ukFollow us on Facebook at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on Instagram at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on X/Twitter at @HistorywJacksonFollow us on TikTok at @HistorywithJackson Hosted on Acast.

Why are women such a central obsession in Greek myths, often portrayed as obstacles or prizes? In Homer's world—myth and history blend, creating a paradox. Women are both silenced and mythologized, seen as prizes or obstacles, and yet, they're essential to the story's very fabric. For example, Helen's obsession drives the Trojan War, while women like Penelope symbolize loyalty and silence. But beneath these stories lies a complex reflection of ancient gender roles—where women are both disempowered and core to a hero's glory. It's a disturbing but fascinating mirror of real ancient life, showing us how myth preserves and distorts societal norms through time. These stories reveal that women were often seen as objects of desire, but also as symbols of power, victimization, or even rebellion—depending on the lens.Chalke History Festival is on from the 22nd through to the 28th of June grab tickets from https://www.chalkefestival.comGrab a copy of Mythica https://uk.bookshop.org/a/14692/9781804992791Keep up to date with Emily via: Her Website https://www.emilyhauser.com/ Her Instagram https://www.instagram.com/emilyhauserauthor If you want to get in touch with History with Jackson email: jackson@historywithjackson.co.ukTo support History with Jackson to carry on creating content subscribe to History with Jackson+ on Apple Podcasts or support us on our Patreon - https://patreon.com/HistorywithJackson?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkTo catch up on everything to do with History with Jackson head to www.HistorywithJackson.co.ukFollow us on Facebook at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on Instagram at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on X/Twitter at @HistorywJacksonFollow us on TikTok at @HistorywithJackson Hosted on Acast.

In this episode with Katja Hoyer I learned how Weimar's choice as the new republic's capital wasn't random; it was strategic. Small, cultural, and safe from political upheaval, it symbolized a fresh start. But beneath that veneer, extremism was already brewing — Nazis testing their power, violence simmering just beneath the surface. The town's evolution shows how politics and culture collide, and how ordinary people's lives are impacted during times of chaos — from factory workers to hotel owners. When history feels distant, these stories remind us how much is at stake in every decision.

Most history books only scratch the surface of Roman slavery, portraying it as just manual labor. But Emma Southon new book 'Servus: How Slavery Made the Roman Empire' reveals a hidden world—slavery that reached into every corner of society, even high finance and bureaucracy. Imagine slaves running entire provinces, managing banks, or even owning property, yet still legally ‘property' of their masters. The sheer scale means enslaved people could have their own lives, relationships, even tips and businesses—they had agency, in a system designed to control and exploit at every turn. That's a far cry from the simplistic image many have. Why does this matter? Because understanding the full scope of Roman slavery challenges our assumptions and illuminates just how deeply systemic oppression was woven into their society.Chalke History Festival is on from the 22nd through to the 28th of June grab tickets from https://www.chalkefestival.comGrab a copy of Servus https://uk.bookshop.org/a/14692/9781399741255Keep up to date with Emma viaHer website https://www.emmasouthon.com/Her instagram https://www.instagram.com/emmasouthon/?hl=enIf you want to get in touch with History with Jackson email: jackson@historywithjackson.co.ukTo support History with Jackson to carry on creating content subscribe to History with Jackson+ on Apple Podcasts or support us on our Patreon - https://patreon.com/HistorywithJackson?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkTo catch up on everything to do with History with Jackson head to www.HistorywithJackson.co.ukFollow us on Facebook at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on Instagram at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on X/Twitter at @HistorywJacksonFollow us on TikTok at @HistorywithJackson Hosted on Acast.

Is the System Set Up for Speakers to Succeed? Why Infrastructure Matters as Much as ConfidenceIn this episode of Be Truly Heard, host Anne Leatherland is joined by Emma Wyatt, marketing strategist and founder of Dream Clinic, who works with founders, experts and thought leaders to design the systems and processes that allow them to show up consistently and sustainably.The conversation takes a refreshingly different angle on the topic of showing up as yourself. Rather than focusing solely on confidence or technique, Anne and Emma look at what happens when the environment around a speaker fails them - and how that failure shows up in the voice itself. From tech that cuts out before you walk on stage to the quiet drain of constantly pushing through noise, this episode makes the case that great speaking is not just an inside job.Key TakeawaysSystems shape the voice whether we realise it or not.When speakers are constantly fighting through tech issues, platform noise and digital overwhelm, their messages get diluted and their voices begin to reflect the strain. Fatigue, inconsistency and a loss of faith in the whole process are the natural result of working in an environment that does not support you.The voice and the nervous system work in both directions.Anxiety affects the voice - but the reverse is also true. Calming the voice through technique, breath and intention can calm the nervous system in turn. This two-way relationship means that vocal skill is not just about sounding good. It is one of the most effective tools a speaker has for managing nerves in real time.Social events take more out of the voice than the speaking itself.The drinks after the event, the lunch with delegates, the post-talk conversations - all of this uses the voice in ways that are easy to overlook. Speakers who carefully prepare for the talk and then forget to protect their voice in the margins are often the ones who find themselves struggling by the end of a busy run.Better support for speakers means better representation for everyone.When the systems around speakers are well designed and people have access to training, infrastructure and real support, it is not just the individual who benefits. A wider range of voices and experiences can come through - and that is good for every audience.Key Moments"If the system around a speaker demands constant output without support, the voice responds. And that person cannot show up as they want to.""Voice care is part of the infrastructure. It is not an indulgence.""Social events can take more out of your voice than the speaking work. It is the bit in between."About Be Truly HeardBe Truly Heard is the podcast for women in business who want to speak with authority, warmth and authenticity. Hosted by Anne Leatherland, coach and voice expert, each episode explores vocal skills and personal growth strategies to help listeners overcome confidence barriers and communicate what is inside.Because your voice matters. And it is time to be truly heard.How to Get in TouchGuest this episode:Emma Wyatt - Dream ClinicEmma Wyatt is a communications specialist and consultant with astrong background in helping individuals and organisations expressthemselves with clarity and confidence.

Why do we picture Henry VIII when we think of England? Let's explore this misconception together! In my conversation with historian Nandini Das, we delve into her new book, *This Little World*, where she challenges the notion of English isolation. Did you know that England's identity has been shaped by centuries of migration? From the Syrian princesses to Flemish hat makers, the narrative is rich and complex.

Hosted by Fiona Scott, today's podcast welcomes Kevin Griffiths, co-director of The Care Show.Having met Kevin 7 to 8 years ago, Fiona found he was enthusiastic about business, networking and food. Fiona then introduced him to her VA, Hannah and now, together, Kevin and Hannah run The Care Show.The event is Swindon's Health & Social Care Expo where care industry professionals, suppliers, and service providers gather to share their insights and expertise bringing information and knowledge to businesses and members of the public.“The Care Show is about helping people who provide care, need care, want care and are interested in it, no matter what part of the business world you hold,” Kevin said.Kevin dives into the journey of stepping into this new role of co-director of The Care Show with Hannah, and what this new business venture means for himself and the local community.He shares the past success and future hopes for The Care Show and how they're stepping into networking and charity events. Kevin shares their ethos of giving back and how the focus is accessibility.“Care is a very loose term and it covers a plethora of things,” he says. “It's not just dumping an old person in a care home because that's the first thing that comes to people's minds.”Kevin discusses the need for a collation of information around care and it not being on the internet and how having one place that a person can come to and ask about care options is essential.The Care Show's expo attracts businesses which specialise in a variety of care aspects for example: care homes, mental health, fostering, adoption, self-care, wills and probate, financial services, nutrition, and youth support.Fiona shares how she underestimated the wide range of businesses which could attend The Care Show. Kevin and Hannah are both systematically underestimated and in January 2026 they successfully pull their first show together and did it extremely well.Kevin reflects on his personal relationship with care provision both for himself and family members, sharing how different care is now than it was decades ago. He reflects on how people need to take responsibility to protect themselves and plan their future.“If you haven't got the plans in place you will have, what they used to call in the old days, ‘a pauper's funeral', because you aren't going to get anything from the state,” he said. “We need to make a difference now.”He speaks about people's reluctance to ask for advice around care and how if he can bring one person who is worried or embarrassed of coming to the expo, and they get to ask questions, they have done what they set out to do.The pair talk about the future of social care in this current political climate and how care isn't discussed and undervalued in society. Kevin discusses how The Care Show aims to change that narrative and takes care and those who provide care more seriously and sets to bring care into people's lives and makes it more successful and cohesive to support them as early as possible.“Sometimes you have to stop and say, ‘hang on, why is this happening?'… and step outside of the bubble and see things with a new pair of eyes. That's when you can come to the care show and ask people for advice,” he said.Kevin concludes by chatting about how the conversations at The Care Show bring peace of mind to many and businesses are not there to gain clients but ease their worries.The Care Show's next event is on Saturday 10th October 2026, 9:30am to 2pm at DoubleTree by Hilton in Swindon.To contact The Care Show, visit www.thecareshow.co.ukTo get in touch with Fiona visit www.scottmedia.ukJoin our free Facebook group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/prtribe

Some dogs find being handled difficult.And for guardians who are trying to support them, that reality can feel confusing, limiting, and quietly heartbreaking.In this episode, I am joined by Lucy Tyrrell, a Galen Myotherapist and founder of Pawsitive Touch, for an honest, grounded conversation about consent-based bodywork for dogs — particularly dogs who are touch-averse, reactive, sensitive, or carrying trauma in their bodies.Together, they explore what it means to truly listen to a dog's nervous system, how to move away from the idea that care requires compliance, and how guardians can support their dogs without pushing past their boundaries.As a mama of a dog who finds handling challenging, I know this episode will help other dog mamas who share the frustration of wanting to build a supportive care team, and feeling that some complementary therapies may not be accessible or appropriate for our dogs right now. Fortunately, as Lucy talks about positive and practical ways forward.This episode is for you if:Your dog struggles with being handled by othersYou've felt unsure or conflicted about hands-on therapiesYou want to support your dog's body in a way that feels safe and respectfulYou're curious about consent-based approaches to careYou want to learn how to do less forcing and more listening✨ Stay tuned until the end of the episode, where Lucy shares details about a special online workshop designed to help guardians learn powerful, practical, consent-based massage techniques they can use themselves to support their dogs at home.This conversation offers a different way forward — one rooted in trust, agency, and meeting the dog in front of you.To connect with Lucy and learn more about her upcoming workshop on Sunday, 8th February at 12pm UK time, email her at: lucy@caninetherapy.co.ukTo find a Galen Myotherapy practitioner near you:https://www.galenmyotherapy.com/teamFor more information on the Galen Myotherapy Distance Support Programme: https://www.galenmyotherapy.com/dspConnect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.comCome join my free Facebook group,  FETCH First Light.
