Burn Wild - Episode 4: Ghosts and myths

In 2005 Joe Dibee fled America – leaving everything behind.

Speaking in Summer 2021, as he awaits what he hopes will be a trial date, Joe tells Leah and Georgia about life out of reach of the FBI, and his eventual capture in Cuba.

As they faced - or face - years behind bars, Leah Sottile explores what that word, terrorist, meant for the environmentalists who had become a ‘domestic terror priority’.

The Intelligence from The Economist - In for a penny, in for a pounding: Britain’s economic gyrations

The markets are so far entirely unconvinced that the new administration’s Reagan-esque economic plans will work to spur growth—just look at sterling's tumble. In Tibet, China’s mass collection of DNA samples has one unabashed motive: social control. And the curious wave of “unretirees” returning to work after the pandemic.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E6: Jon Darbyshire, SmartSuite

After selling his prior company called Archer Technologies, he sat down with many founders of startups, investing in their ideas and working with. What he noticed was that they spent the same amount of time talking business tooling as they did on their product. He started to think there must be a way to have one operating system for all of these tools.

This is the creation story of SmartSuite.

Beyond Meat just sank to an all-time low after a new survey revealed a problem with plant-based meat: You think it’s lying. Investors are literally treating England like an Emerging Market — so the British Pound is the weakest it’s ever been. And Hopper is now the most-downloaded vacation app in the US because its new strategy is to pay you to party in Mykonos. $BKNG $BYND $GBP Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Discovery and Burial of the Remains of Richard III

The death of a British monarch is a very big event. Thousands of people may take part in the funeral and procession, with millions more lining up to pay their respects and billions more watching on television.

This didn’t always use to be the case, however. 

In particular, there was one English King who not only didn’t get an elaborate funeral, no one knew where his body was for over 500 years. 

Learn more about the body of King Richard III and how it was lost and then discovered on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Rosemary Lévy Zumwalt, “Franz Boas: The Emergence of the Anthropologist” (U Nebraska Press, 2019)

Franz Boas is remembered today as one of the most important figures in the history of anthropology. In the United States, he is widely created with creating the modern field of anthropology or at least being one of the key people involved in its creation. And yet despite this fact, no biography of the life of Franz Boas has ever been written -- until now. In the first volume of what will be a two-volume work, Rosemary Lévy Zumwalt tracks Boas's life from his birth in 1858 to his permanent appointment at Columbia University at the close of the nineteenth century.

In this interview, channel host Alex Golub talks with Rosemary about the young man behind the legend, including Boas's romance with his wife Marie Krackowizer, the years he spent in the academic wilderness trying to find a permanent position, and his remarkable ability to balance life and family work. Along the way Rosemary and Alex discuss her writing project more broadly: How can we reconcile the image of Boas as a social justice activist with the fact that he trafficked in human remains? Would Boas have been a success if he did not have rich relatives to support him in what we would today call his 'adjunct years'? How do you successfully spend twenty years writing a two-volume biography of a prolific scholar who lived to be 82? For answers to these questions and more, please give a listen to this interview about Rosemary Lévy Zumwalt's Franz Boas: The Emergence of the Anthropologist (University of Nebraska Press, 2019).

Alex Golub is associate professor of anthropology, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

New Books in Native American Studies - The History and Ethnography of Indigenous Peoples in the Canadian Northwest

Greg Marchildon interviews historian and ethnographer Jennifer Brown on her two most recent books. The first, Ojibwe Stories from the Upper Berens River: A Irving Hallowell and Adam Bigmouth in Conversation (U of Nebraska Press, 2018) concerns the interactions of American anthropologist A. Irving Hallowell with the Berens River band on the east side of Lake Winnipeg. The second book, An Ethnohistorian in Rupert’s Land: Unfinished Conversations (Athabasca UP, 2017), is a compilation of Professor Brown’s most influential articles– essays that have reshaped the historiography of Indigenous-settler relations and the role of women. From 1983 until 2008, Jennifer Brown was a professor as well as Director of the Centre for Rupert’s Land Studies at the University of Winnipeg. Since retirement, she has continued to research and write.

This interview was produced with the support of The Champlain Society. The mission of The Champlain Society is to increase public awareness of, and accessibility to, Canada’s rich store of historical records.

Gregory P. Marchildon is the Ontario Research Chair in Health Policy and System Design with the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation at the University of Toronto.
