Luthersson läser världslitteraturen – en podcast om litterära klassiker som spelades 2013-2023 för Axess Television. Samtalen leds av litteraturdocent Peter Luthersson, som samtalar med kunniga gäster om världslitteraturens stora författarskap och personligheter.
Varför läsa den grekiske historieskrivaren Thukydides? Den brittiske skriftställaren George Orwell? Eller memoar- och tankeboksförfattaren Herbert Tingsten?
Den stora, genomreflekterade litteraturen sätter sin läsare i kontakt med levnadsvillkor och tankemönster som skiljer sig från dem som till vardags omger oss. Den låter oss uppsöka mer eller mindre avlägsna tider och platser. Där möter erfarenheter och uppfattningar om vad som är naturligt eller självklart som förbluffar oss och berikar vårt liv, som utvidgar vårt inre universum och den referensvärld som hjälper oss att orientera oss i tillvaron som människa.

What would it look like to organise the world around care instead of profit? Not as a fantasy. As a serious, uncomfortable, unresolved question.
A Thousand Small Fires is a podcast that takes anarchist, feminist, and queer thought seriously — not as a doctrine to follow, but as a lens for asking better questions. About work, food, love, land, the state, the prison, the family, the body. About who decides, on whose terms, and what gets built when people refuse to wait for permission.
Each episode is around 15 minutes — long enough to go somewhere real, short enough to earn your attention. The show is philosophical in tone and open in frame. It holds contradictions rather than resolving them. It cites thinkers without hiding behind them. It uses history as evidence rather than as comfort.
The anarchist tradition argues that hierarchy — in governments, workplaces, relationships, and intimate life — is not natural or inevitable. It was made, and it can be unmade. This show follows that argument wherever it goes, including into the places the mainstream left doesn't want to look.
Topics across Season 1 include: mutual aid and what makes it different from charity; the care labour that the economy runs on and refuses to count; food, land, and the global struggle for food sovereignty; the women who built anarchism and were written out of its history; queer liberation as a refusal, not a request; love, relationship anarchy, and the politics of intimate life; prison abolition; settler colonialism; carceral feminism; and what it means to start building the world you want inside the one that exists.
No fixed answers. Only better questions.

Alexis de Tocqueville arrived in New York in May 1831. America was still getting started. But this young French aristocrat was the first foreigner to foresee what it would become: not just a country, but an idea—one powerful enough to shape the future of the world.
Tocqueville's nine-month road trip took him to the frontier, to the South and, eventually, to the White House. It spawned his masterpiece: “Democracy in America”. Many people still consider this book the single most insightful piece of writing on America. John Prideaux, The Economist’s US editor, is one of them.
Now, 250 years after the birth of the republic, people inside and outside America are starting to question the vitality of its democracy. How much of what so inspired Tocqueville about America remains?
In this series John Prideaux sets off to find out. He retraces the route Tocqueville took and talks to Americans around the country from all walks of life—just like he did.

However, feeling slighted by the Robert-Houdin family, he penned this work as a means to dismantle their revered image.

From the Canaanites to the Oslo Accords, the history of Palestine is a tapestry of empires, faiths, and contested identities. Lucas and Luna guide listeners through millennia of struggle over this small but world-changing strip of land. Explore the Bronze Age city-states of Canaan, the rise of the Hebrew kingdoms under David and Solomon, and the successive waves of conquest by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Crusaders, Mamluks, and Ottomans. Delve into the birth of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam in this sacred geography, the construction and destruction of the Second Temple, the Crusader capture of Jerusalem in 1099, and the Mamluk victory at Hattin. Trace the Ottoman centuries, the emergence of Palestinian national identity under the British Mandate, and the pivotal 1917 Balfour Declaration. Witness the 1948 Nakba, the 1967 Six-Day War, the rise of the PLO, the Intifadas, and the stalled peace process. Through specific treaties like the Sykes-Picot Agreement and the Camp David Accords, and figures from Saladin to Yasser Arafat, the show examines the human cost of a conflict that remains a global flashpoint. This is not a polemic but a deep historical inquiry into how land becomes sacred, how memory resists erasure, and why the past refuses to stay buried.#Canaanites #AncientIsrael #RomanEmpire #ByzantineEmpire #IslamicGoldenAge #Crusades #OttomanEmpire #BritishMandate #Zionism #PalestinianNakba #SixDayWar #OsloAccords #Jerusalem #DomeOfTheRock #AlAqsa #History #WorldHistory #FexingoHistoryKeep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

True crime, Scandinavian crime, Nordic noir, history and old cases—you'll find it all in this podcast!
After more than six years of producing episodes in Swedish, I’m now bringing historical true crime to you in English.
I explore real murder cases that are at least thirty years old, each one ending with my own personal reflections.
So who am I? My name is Sara Sand. I was born in 1977 and live in the countryside of southern Sweden. I am a mother of seven, with a background in social services and psychiatry.
This is my way of trying to understand what drives people to cross the line—and what remains long afterward.

Detta är podden där jag, Alvaro Foresti, en före detta gymnasielärare i historia, babblar om olika händelser och företeelser inom ämnet historia. Tanken är att jag ganska ofiltrerat och i princip utan manus pratar på om lite allt möjligt, dock med något slags löst tema varje gång. Fokus ligger mindre på detaljer och mer på hur historia i praktiken är en lång sammanlänkad kedja av händelser som kan ledas från tidernas begynnelse fram till våra dagar.
Om ni gillar podden kanske ni även gillar min hemsida www.antikensrom.se, som har en tillhörande YouTube-kanal: https://www.youtube.com/@antikensrom
