    WCL14: Live from the Working Class Literature Festival

    Following our double-episode on the Florence Working-Class Literature Festival back in February, our co-host Matt was invited to this year’s festival, recording this episode on-site at the ex-GKN factory in Florence. Featuring the various writers, researchers, organisers, and activists in attendance, this episode captures the atmosphere of the festival at this critical time for the GKN struggle. Our podcast is brought to you by patreon supporters of both Working Class Literature and Working Class History. Our supporters fund our work, and in return get exclusive early access to podcast episodes, bonus episodes, free and discounted merchandise and other content. Join us or find out more at patreon.com/workingclasshistory Taking place on 4-6 April 2025, the opending day of the festival marked the 1367th day since the 400+ workforce at the GKN car parts factory in Florence was first made redundant. They subsequently seized the factory and remain in control of it to this day, despite receiving their third – and now final – redundancy notice in the days leading up to this year’s festival.Recorded on-site at the occupied GKN factory on the outskirts of Florence, this episode features the voices of various writers, researchers, organisers, and activists that we spoke to while at the festival. These conversations took place against a frenzy of activity, both for the festival but also the GKN struggle itself. AcknowledgementsThanks to all our patreon supporters for making this podcast possible. Special thanks to Jazz Hands, Fernando Lopez Ojeda, Nick Williams and Old NormOur theme tune for these episodes is ‘Occupiamola’ (or ‘Let’s Occupy It’) as sung on a GKN workers’ demonstration in 2024. Many thanks to Reel News London for letting us use their recording. Watch the documentary it’s taken from hereThis episode was edited by Jesse French

    The Great American Spelling Bee with Gabe Henry

    Can you use the word in a sentence? For this episode, Spelling Correspondent Gabe Henry takes Sarah through the surprisingly rampageous (r-a-m-p-a-g-e-o-u-s) history of the Spelling Bee, a uniquely American phenomenon. From the earliest examples of late night “spelling matches,” to the rough-and-tumble contests of the early frontier, to the controversy of the first National spelling bee, it turns out that these mild-mannered academic flexes were once both raucous and revolutionary. Gabe also brings his own spelling bee to test the gifted child that still buzzes within Sarah Marshall. Digressions include Ben Franklin’s morning routine, why we need more statues of kids, and the Wolf Blitzer Hologram.

    Francisco Franco: life of the week

    Emerging in the early 20th century as Europe's youngest general since Napoleon Bonaparte, Francisco Franco was destined to make waves. But how did this uncharismatic reactionary become Spain’s dictator, dominating the country for nearly four decades? Danny Bird speaks to journalist Giles Tremlett about the life of the man who continues to haunt Spain more than 50 years after his death in 1975. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Černobyľský scenár bol výsledkom sovietskeho manažmentu

    Keď sa povie jadrová energetika, mnohí z nás sa možno zľaknú a automaticky si spomenú na katastrofu, ktorá sa udiala 26. apríla 1986 v Černobyľskej jadrovej elektrárni. Teda presne pred 40 rokmi. Tento závod, ktorý mal byť pýchou a dôkazom technickej vyspelosti sovietskeho inžinierstva, sa napokon stal ich pravým opakom, strašiakom a symbolom rozkladu niekdajšieho komunistického režimu. Havária 4. reaktora v Černobyli spôsobila šok, vysoké straty na životoch, obrovské škody na ľudskom zdraví po celej Európe, ktoré je dodnes náročne presne kvantifikovať a pochopiteľne vyvolala i celý rad otázok. Sú jadrové elektrárne skutočne bezpečným, a preto vhodným technickým nástrojom na výrobu veľkého množstva elektrickej energie? Nie je po tejto skúsenosti lepšie uvažovať o alternatívach? A ako sa vôbec mohlo stať, že v Černobyli zlyhali všetky zložky technickej kontroly? Je naozaj vylúčené, že sa podobný scenár zopakuje s odstupom rokov napríklad u nás na Slovensku alebo inde vo svete? Ako už tušíte, táto epizóda podcastu Dejiny bude trochu iná. Na niektoré kľúčové otázky o našej nedávnej minulosti totiž potrebujeme poznať predovšetkým technické odpovede. Jaroslav Valent sa v štúdiu rozprával s Andrejom Pastorekom, členom Slovenskej nukleárnej spoločnosti a zakladateľom projektu Černobyľ.Info. Táto epizóda podcastu Dejiny vznikla s podporou Slovenských elektrární – lídra bezpečnej jadrovej energetiky na Slovensku. Na výrobe tejto relácie spolupracovali Tomáš Rybár a Michal Jurík. – Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠jaroslav.valent@petitpress.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sme.sk/podcasty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
