  • Episode 20.5 : Announcements And Updates

    Hello everyone, this is a quick update abotu what's happening over the next number of months with the Anarchaeologist podcast. I am having to spread myself quite thin and I really don't want to keep apologising for not releasing. I am thinking of changing to the format in the meantime to a "The Anarchaeologist Speaks" type in a bid to use what small time I have free to give you your well deserved episodes.

    Thank you to everyone who has interacted and talked to me on Twitter and elsewhere - you are amazing and keep me going

    Thanks

  • Episode 20: Gabe and Tristan Battle For the Truth

    Hello and welcome back to a crowning example of what really happens when archaeologists talk at length. Gabe Moshenska makes a return to the show, bringing us up to date on his Oral Histories project but soon enough a wider conversation on the presentation of the Second World War and how history is used by various political factions to back up their own ideas. Furthermore we descend even deeper into the world of Political Correctness, the right wing and how archaeology can be part of rediscovering history.

  • Episode 19: Zenobie Wan Has Taught me Well

    Todays episode transcends the atlantic ocean to bring the wonderful Zenobie Garrett, Archaeologist living in New York but originally from Illinoise. We talk Mediveal archaeology and how it isn’t what you normally expect and how public archaeology is the most important thing we can engage in. I comment on the culture of archaeologists and Zenobie drops a few puns. We talk about what archaeology is and why we were both drawn to it.

  • Episode 18 : Archaeodeath : Discussing the Pestiferous

    Today we go into the depths of death; to the bottom of the pit to discover the man behind the blog Archaeodeath. Today's guest is Proffessor Howard Williams of the University of Chester, England. Here we discuss the meaning of death in archaeology and the role of Mortuary Archaeology as a specialisation. Despite this morbid topic, we have a wonderful chat about comedy, humour and not being super serious all the time (in fact sometimes it pays to be funny). Professor Williams explains the story behind his recent blog post on studying cemeteries.

    We also talk about who can speak out and what it means to be offensive as a Professor in a University or as a young career archaeologist.

    I discuss how metal and archaeology can come together and what the best rap battle between archaeologists could be.

  • The Anarchaeologist Speaks - Episode 17

    **WARNING CONTAINS ARCHAEOLOGICAL BLACK METAL**

    HARK! The trowels no longer shuffle in the dirt and the test pits have been dug. This week's episode settles down with Tristan aka The Anarchaeologist, as he goes on a tirade about news stories almost a month old. Fear not, dear listener, despite lacking topicality, Tristan assures me that his tone is witty, relentless and slightly over the top.

    If you had ideas about ISIS or The Temple of the Monkey, prepare to be amazed at even more questions and pondering as well as some food for thought.

    The Anarchaeologist will return to normal programming with the next episode, in the meantime I leave you in the capable hands and warm tones of Tristan Boyle

All too often we talk about fake news and alternative facts as if they are new concepts. In reality history itself is constructed, and thus constrained by its authors, we have as a society taken this…
