In another socially distant episode, Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute's Hanna Matt joined us from Switzerland to discuss humanitarianism in the USSR, borscht politics, and snow. Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

In our most socially distant episode ever, Michaela Clark, PhD candidate with Manchester's CHSTM, joined us all the way from Cape Town! We discuss her research into clinical photography, touching on topics of race, womanhood, and privacy. Listen to find out what extremely cool location Michaela was zooming us from! Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

This week we are joined by Russianist Vitaly Kazakov to discuss the national narratives presented by the Olympics, Sochi and Vancouver Opening ceremonies, online comments, and Russia's chances in FIFA World Cup in Qatar. This episode was recorded in late December 2020, so 'recent news' discussed then are by now last year's news, but they are still no less exciting. Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

We are back! Linguist Anh-Khoi Nguyen joins us for the first episode of 2021 to discuss Vietnamese language maintenance, bringing up multilingual children, and the relationship between language and love! Hosted by Georgia and Ana. The Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

We are taking a short break to recharge and prepare ourselves for the new term! We hope that despite everything happening right now, you find some time to relax and celebrate whatever you may be celebrating! See you in 2021

In this week's episode, we are joined by Lewis Ryder, who recently finished his PhD in history, to discuss how John Hilditch, collector of Chinese art, challenged the traditional hierarchies of connoisseurship in late 19th-early 20th century Britain, what makes an art expert, and how a historian's skills can be used in the real world. Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

We are joined by Caroline Smith, who has just finished her PhD in History and Archaeology at Durham University, to discuss researching bishop's houses during the Reformation, graduating in 2020, and being filmed in a latrine! Plus there is a story about monkeys. Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

Historian of China and migration Nicholas McGee joins us to talk about the 'entanglement' of the Chinese and British Empires, personal diaries, what it's like to date another PhD student. Hosts this week: Georgia and Ana. Our theme music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.

This week we are (remotely) joined by medievalist Alastair Forbes to discuss when a knight is not a knight, murdering women in bathtubs, and the value of bad (and controversial) scholarship. Hosted by Georgia and Ana. Music is Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom.
