Historians Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook are interrogating the past, and attempting to de-tangle the present. They question the nature of Greatness, why the West no longer has civil wars and whether Richard Nixon was more like Caligula or Claudius. They're distilling the entirety of human history, or, as much as they can fit into about fifty minutes.

They saw the need for some real-life info on effective writing versus the cookie-cutter bumper sticker advice many podcasts are based on. Their advice is based on what works in the real world of publishing. Example: Write what you know. Bullshit, bumper sticker advice. Better: Write what you can convince the reader you know. If a writer followed the first piece of advice, chances are pretty ...

A basketball court might be 94 feet long, but the game’s reach has undeniably transcended the lines of the hardwood and left its mark on art, culture, politics and so much more. On a personal note for us at Bristol Studio, basketball has been an ever-present force in our lives since we could walk; it has shaped who we are, how we think, and given us the gift of lifelong friendships. In this sense, 94 & More is a love-letter to the game that raised us, but also an exploration of what basketba ...

I grew up watching MTV as a teen (and beyond) and one band that stood out for me were THE HOOTERS (A Philadelphia PA band that looked fun and lyrically different with lines and melodies you'd remember for a long time).
