English accents have been evolving ever since the first people started speaking this very strange language. People in historic films often speak with a modern British accent, and when they don't, people think it's inaccurate. But what did people really sound like during Shakespearean times? Or American Revolution times? Author and linguist Valerie Fridland joins us to discuss all these questions and more!

Wallis Simpson was an American divorcee who won the heart of Prince Edward. In 1935, Edward abdicated as King so that he could marry Wallis. Meanwhile, his brother Prince Albert married Scottish noblewoman Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon. For most of their lives, Elizabeth and Wallis hated each other. This dramatic real-life rivalry inspired The Windsor Affair, a new novel by Melanie Benjamin. Melanie joins us to discuss this scandalous history and how modern-day British royal women compare to these famous rivals.

Ada Lovelace was born during the Regency Era, the daughter of Annabella Milbanke and (trigger warning) Lord Byron. Her story brings us from the Georgian era into the Victorian era as she wielded her father's charisma and her mother's love of math to (very accurately) predict the dangers of AI. And also start a horse race gambling ring, pawn the family jewels, and invent a flying machine!

In this interview with Disha Karnad Jani for the In Theory podcast, Edward Baring returns to the JHI Blog to offer another discussion of his most recent work, Vulgar Marxism: Revolutionary Politics and the Dilemmas of Worker Education, 1891–1931 (2025). Their conversation covers the book's main focus on “vulgar Marxism” and how this idea serves as a unique entry point into understanding the relationship between Marxist theory and the practice of worker education throughout the early-to-mid twentieth century. This conversation also provides a new perspective on, and further texture to, the numerous questions and critical insights raised by the book (from whether this story might serve as a pre-history of the Cold War to what bearing this history of worker education has on thinking about mass politics today).
The mysterious woman known as Princess Caraboo took Regency Era England by storm. Speaking a language no one understood, she captivated the Ton... until her true identity was revealed.

Good Sunday to youI'm still finding my feet having just got back from Namibia. I've got a full country report coming, as well as a portfolio piece. But I've been thinking further about the country's potential since Wednesday's note.Namibia has almost everything. Resources. Location. Roads. A small population. On paper, it should work.And yet.Driving through Windhoek, the capital, my guide pointed out a hospital: the Katutura State Hospital.“You don't want to get sick here,” he said.It didn't look too bad from the outside. A bit craggy. But I've seen worse.The place is infamous apparently. Rats. Endless waits. People lying untreated in corridors. People deliberately go at 3 in the morning, because it betters your chances of being seen the next day. My guide described his own time there when he broke his arm last year. Oof. It makes NHS Accident and Emergency waiting times look slick.Across the road, stood a gleaming monstrosity - the SWAPO (ruling party) headquarters. Brand new. Vulgar. Expensive. Impossible to miss.It wasn't discreetly tucked away. It was right there, bearing down on the hospital. My first reaction was simply how ugly it is. A few years and that will look truly horrible, I explained to my guide, who seemed baffled by my prediction.His point, however, that I hadn't yet thought of, was simply how the building had attracted controversy: all that money being spent on what is essentially a vanity project, with the hospital over the road.It was built by the Chinese, funded through a grant from the Chinese government, rather than a commercial loan, at a cost of $50–60 million (figures vary). Because it's a grant, it doesn't sit as formal public debt. What could the Chinese possibly want in Namibia. (Clue Namibia, among other things, is the world's 3rd largest uranium producer and the Chinese pretty much control the 3 largest uranium mining companies operating there. Then there are all those other resources too)There, in a single snapshot, lies the problem. A classic of the resource curse genre. Easy money distorts behaviour. In theory, natural resources should make a country rich. In practice, they often do the opposite. Incentives determine the outcome.If a government can fund itself from its natural resources, from its oil or metal, what does it care about tax payers? If it doesn't rely on its citizens, it doesn't feel accountable to them. Instead of serving the public, the state begins to serve itself.Money flows in. It gets spent badly, siphoned off, used to entrench power.At the same time, the rest of the economy suffers. Why build a broad industrial base when the ground is already doing the work for you? You end up with a narrow, fragile system built around extraction.Two countries with similar resources can end up in completely different places.Norway built institutions, saved its oil wealth, invested for the long term. Venezuela (which has greater oil resources than even Saudi Arabia), spent it, politicised it and hollowed out everything else.Don't get me started on what the UK did with its oil. (First thing the government should do Monday morning by the way is renegotiate North Sea division with Norway). Same starting point. Opposite outcomes. One has one of the lowest GDP per capitas in the world, the other has one of the highest. The difference is governance. Incentives. Culture.Namibia now has some choices to make. It is somewhere near the beginning of that path. It has oil discoveries offshore. It is already a major uranium producer. It has copper, gold, rare earths, diamonds, zinc, lithium and tin. Fish. The opportunity is obvious.But so is the risk. The easy choice is to follow the same path as most of the rest of Africa. The harder choice now, but one that will result in better outcomes, is one of good governance.The debate around that SWAPO headquarters touches on exactly this point. Despite what I've said, there is no single scandal you can point to and say “there it is”. It's all a bit more murky. But the criticism you hear, quietly and repeatedly, is about priorities. Why spend heavily on political infrastructure when basic services are under strain? Why is the party so well housed while public systems struggle? There are major questions too, as with much infrastructure in Africa, about foreign financing and influence, especially from China. You don't need a formal corruption charge to expose everything. You can see it in how capital is allocated.Oddly, the countries that often do best are those with very little as far as natural resources are concerned. Hong Kong, Singapore, even Venice a millennium earlier. There was no safety net. They were forced to trade, to manufacture, to compete. They had to create value because there was none sitting in the ground.Namibia doesn't have that pressure. So it has to choose discipline, and that is the hard part. When you see a failing hospital on one side of the road and a gleaming party headquarters on the other, it tells you something about priorities. Never mind what politicians say, look at what they do.I'll be back with more later this week.Thank you for being a subscriber to the Flying Frisby.Until next time,DominicIf you live in a third world country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver.

Watch this episode as a video. Emma Hamilton was the ultimate artist's muse, posing for more portraits during her life than anyone before or after. She was also a political operative, helping the royal family during the Naples reverse-revolution, and facilitating ties between Britain and Naples. She was also, perhaps most famously, the lover of Lord Nelson (the military hero). And then she was erased from history. We're joined again by guest co-host Amanda Matta to tell the action-packed second part of Emma's wild life story.Learn more about Amanda, her podcasts, and other ways to keep up with her. — Buy a copy of Ann's book Rebel of the Regency — Get 15% off all the gorgeous jewellery and accessories at common.era.com/vulgar or go to commonera.com and use code VULGAR at checkout — Get Vulgar History merch at vulgarhistory.com/store (best for US shipping) and vulgarhistory.redbubble.com (better for international shipping) — Support Vulgar History on Patreon — Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission.

The calls came from Madison Square Garden. From Times Square. From packed Midtown locations where surveillance cameras are useless. A man, using Melissa Barthelemy's phone, calling her 15-year-old sister Amanda. Five calls over five weeks. Each under three minutes — as if the caller knew exactly how long law enforcement needs to trace a signal. Vulgar. Mocking. Controlled. In the final call, he told Amanda her sister was dead and he was going to watch her rot.Episode 5 of "The Seven." Melissa was 24, from Buffalo, a cosmetology school graduate who moved to the Bronx to chase a salon career. She'd started escort work through Craigslist because the city was expensive and the dream job was slow to arrive. On July 12, 2009, she told a friend she was meeting a man. Prosecutors allege the burner phone that man used traveled from Massapequa Park to Midtown Manhattan — Rex Heuermann's exact commute route. Melissa's own phone then traveled the reverse.Her remains were the first found in December 2010, discovered by a cadaver dog during a training exercise along Ocean Parkway. Prosecutors also allege Heuermann searched online for images of the victims' families after their deaths. The phone evidence, the DNA, and what the calls to Amanda reveal about the alleged psychology behind these killings — all covered here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

C. S. Lewis once wrote a preface to a translation of the Bible, "Modern Translations of the Bible" (1947). Here Lewis explains a tenant of reformation theology about scripture, that there ought to be translations in the vernacular of the day so that all may "read, mark, learn and inwardly digest" what the Holy Spirit has inspired in scripture. This essay explores theology around Bible translation, inspiration, and interpretation. We also dip into what Lewis wrote elsewhere about good translation and interpretation in the essays:"A Lectionary of Christian Prose from the Second Century to the Twentieth Century", "Odysseus sails again: The Odyssey", and"The Literary Impact of the Authorized Version"These can be found in "Image and Imagination," and "Selected Literary Essays"Find more Lesser-Known Lewis — Online: pintswithjack.com/lesser-known-lewisPatreon: patreon.com/lesserknownlewisInstagram: @lesserknownlewisFacebook: Lesser-Known Lewis PodcastEmail: lesserknownlewis@gmail.comGraphic Design by Angus Crawford.Intro Music - Written by Jess Syratt, arranged & produced by Angus Crawford and Jordan Duncan.
Public profanity toward political opponents used to be taboo.Now it's campaign messaging.Why are Democratic politicians openly chanting “F--- Trump” and “F--- ICE”?And what does this shift toward contempt — rather than argument — reveal about modern political culture?In this episode, Walter Hudson examines the rise of identity-based political mobilization, why moral framing replaces policy debate, and how contempt politics reshapes democratic discourse.This isn't just about vulgar language.It's about a deeper change in how political opponents are viewed — and whether they're still seen as legitimate participants in public life.https://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.

In the Regency Era, reputation was all many working-class women had. When Edinburgh schoolteachers Marianne Woods and Jane Pirie were accused of sapphic behaviour by their student Jane Cumming, they lost everything. So they decided to sue their accuser's wealthy grandmother for libel. The legal case, Pirie and Woods vs Cumming Gordon, only fanned the flames of the scandal. This week, our guest Indigo Dunphy-Smith walks us through the racism, classism, and homophobia that turned these rumours into a well-known scandal.
