War - Do we care enough? In this episode, distinguished historian Margaret MacMillan explains why we should care about war and how it's profoundly impacted our societies, political institutions, values, language and some of our greatest cultural treasures. In conversation with bestselling author and historian Peter Frankopan, MacMillan examines questions such as why warriors are typically men, what role women play, why there are wars with no clear objective or ending, and how non-state actors influence outcomes. Drawing on the themes of MacMillan's book, 'War: How Conflict Shaped Us', the two also discuss the benefits of war, including votes for women, penicillin, and (arguably) nuclear power. Listen now to discover how war has shaped our past and will continue to shape our future.

We have all heard that you should cool down after exercise but as adults, and especially men, we rarely set aside the time for this. One of the issues that plagues bowhunters is pain in and around the shoulder after taking some time off over the winter. Starting the year with a shoulder injury is obviously not ideal. Wardo provides a few easy and effective ways to cool down your shoulder to prevent injury after slinging too many arrows. @drmattwarddc @hardyardsperformance ------------------------- Wanna be ready for any hunt this season?
