Born into a world of treachery, violence and death, William of Normandy defied all expectations, forging a legacy that lasts to this day. Born out of wedlock and dismissed as an upstart, he was originally known as William the Bastard. Inheriting the Duchy of Normandy at just eight years old, William was faced with betrayal, bloodshed, and anarchy. From the restless Normans, who expanded across Europe as mercenaries and horsemen, to the growing threat of Anjou, the early years of his reign were blighted by power struggles. Following the brutal murder of his guardians, and with Normandy on the brink of collapse, William was forced to survive in a world without loyalty, where ambition was the ultimate currency. Meanwhile, across the Channel, the English throne was in turmoil, as the sons of Æthelred the Unready fought for survival and power… Join Tom and Dominic as they trace William's rise from a vulnerable child to a formidable young duke, setting the stage for the ultimate confrontation: his claim to the English crown. _______ Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett + Aaliyah Akude Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor Learn more about your ad choices.

fWotD Episode 2874: Edward the Martyr Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 18 March 2025 is Edward the Martyr.Edward the Martyr (c. 962 – 18 March 978) was King of the English from 8 July 975 until he was killed in 978. He was the eldest son of King Edgar (r. 959–975). On Edgar's death, the succession to the throne was contested between Edward's supporters and those of his younger half-brother, the future King Æthelred the Unready. As they were both children, it is unlikely that they played an active role in the dispute, which was probably between rival family alliances. Edward's principal supporters were Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, and Æthelwine, Ealdorman of East Anglia, while Æthelred was backed by his mother, Queen Ælfthryth and her friend Æthelwold, Bishop of Winchester. The dispute was quickly settled. Edward was chosen as king and Æthelred received the lands traditionally allocated to the king's eldest son in compensation.Edgar had been a strong and overbearing king and a supporter of the monastic reform movement. He had forced the lay nobility and secular clergy to surrender land and sell it at low prices to the monasteries. Æthelwold had been the most active and ruthless in seizing land for his monasteries with Edgar's assistance. The nobles took advantage of Edgar's death to get their lands back, mainly by legal actions but sometimes by force. The leading magnates were split into two factions, the supporters of Ælfhere, Ealdorman of Mercia and Æthelwine, who both seized some monastic lands which they believed belonged to them, but also estates claimed by their rivals. The disputes never led to warfare.Edward's short reign was brought to an end by his murder in March 978 in unclear circumstances. He was killed on the Dowager Queen Ælfthryth's estate at the Gap of Corfe in Dorset, and hurriedly buried at Wareham. A year later, his body was translated with great ceremony to Shaftesbury Abbey in Dorset. Contemporary writers do not name the murderer, but almost all narratives in the period after the Norman Conquest name Ælfthryth. Some modern historians agree, but others do not. Another theory is that the killers were thegns of Æthelred, probably acting without orders.Medieval kings were believed to be sacrosanct, and Edward's murder deeply troubled contemporaries who regarded it as a mortal sin. He soon came to be revered as a saint, and his feast of 18 March is still listed in the festal calendar of the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England. Edward was known in his own time for his extreme violence, and historians consider his veneration thoroughly undeserved. The historian Tom Watson comments: "For an obnoxious teenager who showed no evidence of sanctity or kingly attributes and who should have been barely a footnote, his cult has endured mightily well."This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:16 UTC on Tuesday, 18 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Edward the Martyr on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Kajal.

The Norman Conquest of 1066, culminating in the legendary Battle of Hastings, is perhaps the greatest turning point in the history of the English nation. It was a year that changed the fate of England forever, forging empires, and settling continents. And yet, despite its infamy and significance, the true nature of those totemic events are often forgotten. So what happened in the build up to the Battle of Hastings? The dramas of 1066 were set in motion by a succession crisis in 975 AD, following the death of King Edgar. England by that time was the wealthiest and best run government in Northern Europe, a kingdom of united English speaking peoples, established by Alfred the Great and his successors. Following the mysterious death of Edgar's first son, Edward, his second son, Æthelred - later known as ‘The Unready' - took the throne. For many years his kingdom flourished, until disaster struck: the Vikings returned to reign terror upon the Anglo-Saxon people, under the leadership of the terrifying Olaf Tryggvason, King of Norway. With his coffers straining, his people enslaved, and his lands shrinking, Æthelred, now wed to the foreign Emma of Normandy, finally decided to take drastic action, and weed the Vikings out once and for all. So it was that with the dawning of the millennium, a terrible, bloody massacre began…. Join Tom and Dominic as they set out upon one of greatest narratives in all English history, with the build up to 1066 and the Battle of Hastings. Would England survive the wrath of the Vikings?

Canada often seems "unready and out of step” with the world's current challenges, according to the editors of a new book on foreign policy. With the rise of authoritarianism around the world and increasing hostility from the U.S., are we taking our place on the world stage seriously enough? Or does our foreign policy need an overhaul?   Philippe Lagassé and Vincent Rigby are two of the editors of the latest edition in the Canada Among Nations series. They join Paul to talk about what's lacking and what can be done about it.   Season 3 of The Paul Wells Show is sponsored by McGill University's Max Bell School of Public Policy.

King Æthelred II ruled England from 978 to 1016 – with a little gap in 1014. Known to history as 'the Unready', he faced many challenges in his reign, not least the attentions of several Viking invasion forces. It was Æthelred's failure to deal with such threats that landed him with his rather unfortunate nickname. However, as Levi Roach explains to David Musgrove, the story of his reign is a far more complicated one, with long-term consequences.

Welcome to Start the Week, our Monday scene-setter for the week ahead. In today's audio-led edition: The government clear the decks on its policy logjam, with privacy reforms dumped until after the election; new AI rules, and heavy fines on scam ads. Plus, the boss of Disrupt Radio - where staff have gone unpaid for nearly two months - claims: “Start-ups are not for the salaried and superannuated”.We've upgraded Unmade's membership.

Upgrade today.Privacy reforms move to the ‘too-hard' basket; Don't expect salaries and super, Disrupt Radio founder tells staffIt's a frenetic day for government policy announcements with major consequences for the marketing industry.Most notably, The Guardian has broken the news that the most consequential reforms to the Privacy Act have been moved to “the too-hard basket”, and are likely to be dumped to the other side of the election.Also today, the government is announcing a crackdown on scam ads with fines for the digital platforms that carry them. What's unclear is whether this will extend to media brands (most local news outlets) who carry Google Display Network content.And the government has also kicked off a fortnight long consultation period around a new set of voluntary rules on AI usage.Sticking with AI, Unmade's Tim Burrowes, Cat McGinn and Abe Udy also examine the launch of Seven's The AI Factory - is it substance or spin?And the team discusses the latest on the ailing Disrupt Radio. Founder Ben Roberts told The Australian today that the real problem for unpaid staff isn't their empty bank accounts, but that they're not used to what he sees as the realities of life in a startup.“Start-ups are not for the salaried and superannuated, and I made it very clear to people I personally hired that it might be a bit of a rollercoaster."It's been particularly difficult for those who haven't been through the rough and tumble of a start-up before,” he told The Oz.Further reading:* The Guardian: Get a VPN and delete your cookies, Australia's privacy laws are still lagging behind“Are we the baddies?”* Brisbane Times: Up to $50m fine for banks, telcos, social media firms in war on scams* Australian Government: Voluntary AI Safety Standard* Seven West Media: Seven opens the AI Factory* Unmade: Disrupt Radio goes off air* The Australian: Disrupt Radio hits turbulence: unable to pay staff and the station is taken off DAB+Today's episode features Tim Burrowes, Abe Udy and Cat McGinnEditing was courtesy of Abe's Audio, the people to talk to about voiceovers, sound design and podcast production.Time to leave you to start your week.

This conversation with Sam Eldredge was one of the most fun conversations I've had at Men at the Movies, so I am pulling The Empire Strikes Back out of the mothballs for this month.  With so many options and themes we could've gone with, we focused on Luke's pursuit of identity.  He had accomplished everything he had dreamed of on Tattoine, but the more success he had, the more it pulled him from his true calling.  It took a supernatural intervention to get him where he needed to go. Never tell me the odds, and lets discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Where do you feel like Luke: adrift without a mentor, training on Dagobah, fighting a battle that's over your head, dealing with the unthinkable? How have you simplified your story into black and white?  Where should there be more gray? What do you tie your legacy to? What's the pinnacle of your existence?  How many decisions do you make?  How often are you doing what others tell you to do? Where do you feel like you're killing it?  How can success pull you away from your true identity? Where do you feel comfortable? What feels risky? Uncertain? Unready? What kind of man do you want to be? What battle do you engage in feeling unprepared? What past mistakes has God redeemed?  How has He created something beautiful from what you regret?

"To Provide and Maintain a Navy," a succinct but encompassing treatise on sea power by Dr. Henry J "Jerry" Hendrix, goes beyond the numbers to reveal the crucial importance of Mare Liberum (Free Sea) to the development of the Western thought and the rules based order that presently governs the global commons that is the high seas. Proceeding from this philosophical basis, Hendrix explores how a "free sea" gave way to free trade and the central role sea borne commercial trade has played in the overall rise in global living standards. This is followed by analysis of how the relative naval balance of power has played out in terms of naval battles and wars over the centuries and how the dominance of the United States Navy following World War II has resulted in seven decades of unprecedented peace on the world's oceans. He further considers how, in the years that followed the demise of the Soviet Union, both China and Russia began laying the groundwork to challenge the United States maritime leadership and upend five centuries of naval precedents in order to establish a new approach to sovereignty over the world's seas. It is only at this point that Dr. Hendrix approaches the question of the number of ships required for the United States Navy, the industrial base required to build them, and the importance of once again aligning the nation's strategic outlook to that of a "seapower" in order to effectively and efficiently address the rising threat. "To Provide and Maintain a Navy" is brief enough to be read in a weekend but deep enough to inform the reader as to the numerous complexities surrounding what promises to be the most important strategic conversation facing the United States as it enters a new age of great power competition with not one, but two nations who seek nothing less than to close and control the world's seas. 1918 BATTLE OF THE FALKLAND ISLANDS

The old days of retailers quietly testing new tech offstage are a relic of the past. Welcome to the launch and learn era, where retailers are ditching the warm-up act and releasing tech straight into consumer environments before the kinks are worked out. It's a gutsy game of moving fast and iterating even faster based on real-time shopper feedback. This high-risk, high-reward strategy aims to keep retailers innovating at a rapid pace, but it isn't without potential pitfalls.Carol dives into this new frontier, unpacking how major retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Amazon are unleashing shiny new tech onto unsuspecting customers first and figuring out the bugs and backlash as they go.Key examples discussed include:Best Buy's new AI assistant built to support (or replace?) human assistance.Walmart's rocky road with self-checkout scaling.Amazon's pivot to smart Dash carts after pulling "Just Walk Out" tech from Fresh stores. Carol explores how the exponential pace of tech innovation, razor-thin competitive windows, and the lure of cost cuts are fading the idea of perfecting solutions before launch.But diving head-first into uncharted waters has its hazards. Consumers expecting seamless experiences are instead being used as guinea pigs, sparking confusion and triggering control issues. On the flip side, retailers are placing big bets that the efficiencies will pay off by hitting "launch" first and making the business case later.Key Takeaways:How tensions can flare when consumer expectations and retailer justifications are at odds.How some retailers are balancing high-tech and high-touch solutions on the front end rather than lurching between extremes.Why retailers are trading between live experiments instead of defaulting to the tried and true.Why Amazon's checkout tech pivots are the ultimate launch-and-learn case study.Want to be a guest on Spieckerman Speaks Retail?

Zaiba and Uzma discussed how they faced the biggest "mommying challenges" during Ramadan 2019, and how they break us and make us. In light of the current siege in G@z@, we feel broken indeed and for that reason look forward to Ramadan.We were inspired to replay this due a recent post by @drhanaa,peacewithinhome, because the ummah is sharing survivors' guilt while our brothers and sisters suffer across the world because of our tax dollars. Everything sticks in our throats where our rage and tears are balled up, but her recent post about how to explain this Ramadan to our kids is key, and this episode is a reminder of the lengths we have gone to in the past for our families in Ramadan. This year, the stakes are higher. Oh, Allah, You are The One Who forgives greatly, and loves to forgive, so forgive us. (Tirmidhi).And let this be the Ramadan that brings forgiveness, mercy, and peace to the ones who need it most. Allahuma ameen. Tune in at 6pm EST and share with a momsister who also can't remember the excitement of this most beloved guest of the year, Ramadan.Links:1.

Today's guest expert shares insights on how large organizations can nurture and empower rising leaders and unready organizations.Kwofe Coleman is President & CEO of the Municipal Theatre Association of St. Louis (The Muny). After beginning his Muny career in 1998 as an usher, he has advanced through the administrative ranks at The Muny, including staff accountant, house manager, digital communications manager, director of marketing and communications, managing director, and became president of the nation's oldest and largest outdoor musical theatre since 2021.As President & CEO, Kwofe leads the historic theatre into its 105th season of producing live musical theatre on a grand scale. He maintains overall accountability, responsibility and authority for the management of the business and affairs of The Muny in accordance with its mission. Through this role he continues to embrace and articulate the artistic and institutional vision, develop progressive income streams and new strategic initiatives to deepen the organization's community engagement, educational and outreach efforts. Kwofe was instrumental in navigating the theatre through the pandemic. He also played a key role in The Muny's successful $100 million Second Century Capital Campaign.Kwofe is the board president of the National Alliance for Musical Theatre (NAMT) and is an active contributor to the St. Louis community, serving on the Commerce Bank Advisory Board, St. Louis University High School Board of Trustees, Cor Jesu Academy Advisory Council, and as a founding board member of Atlas School. He also serves on the Board of Directors for the Saint Louis Club and supports various social service organizations.In 2020 Kwofe was recognized by The St. Louis Business Journal in its “40 Under 40” class. He was a Fellowship Advisor for the DeVos Institute of Arts Management at the University of Maryland (2018) and a recipient of The St. Louis American's Salute to Young Leaders Award (2015). In addition to his Muny work, Kwofe consults for various concerts, artist development, management and production projects, including executive producer for 2020's A New Holiday, a short musical film created by LIFE Creative Group and broadcast on local PBS networks.MAIN TAKEAWAYS:Alex worked at a women's shelter in his early 20s, which he said was emotionally taxing at times. Kwofe was a death penalty investigator for the Southern Center for Human Rights and built relationships with each person he worked with to understand their unique situation. Kwofe said the work had great value to him and any discomfort he felt didn't trump the client's reality. Doing the best job possible for the client required an emotional investment for the client to have trust in his work. You can do everything right in a job and do your absolute best and there's no change. You have to figure out how to advance over the issue. Kwofe started from the bottom, but he's now here, at the top. At 16 years old, he worked at the Muny as an usher and advanced through the administrative ranks at The Muny, including staff accountant, house manager, digital communications manager, director of marketing and communications, and managing director, and became president of the nation's oldest and largest outdoor musical theatre since 2021. Kwofe said he stayed because it was a great opportunity and a community-based and important art institute in St. Louis.People are more aware of who they are individually and comfortable with who they are. The stories and plays at the Muny aren't rewritten but show a wonderful world of diversity. To prepare the leadership that comes up after you, train those who look and don't look like you. Invest in the next generation. (ie have internship and education programs for college and high school students) and show them the art form and opportunities available to...

Few English kings have had a worse popular reputation than Æthelred the Unready (r.978-1016), the king who lost England (at least temporarily) to viking invaders. But does he deserve that reputation?  Was King Æthelred really "unready"?  My co-host for this episode is the person most qualified to answer that question, Dr. Levy Roach of the University of Exeter in the U.K, author of Æthelred the Unready (Yale University Press, 2016).  Please join Levy and me as we explore the troubled reign of a much maligned king.
