We now have #InOurTime podcasts on Elizabeth Anscombe (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001n1yy) and Iris Murdoch (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0010q90). Mary Midgley appeared on the programme in 1998 (Science in the 20th Century: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p005457h).
So I think we're just waiting for a programme on Philippa Foot.
#InOurTime diesmal mit einem zumindest peripher bibliothekarischen/bibliometrischen Thema: In Our Time: Paul Erdős
(die Erdős-Nummer kommt aber erst am Ende vor)

Listening to the #InOurTime podcast about superconductivity, for the first time I heard a physicist try to explain physics via a cognitive metaphor, rather than the other way around.
May have broken the record for shortest period between learning about a new topic* and suggesting it for an #InOurTime episode

Listening to #InOurTime this week was a reminder of the reasons for #Brexit. From the 19thC London’s liquid sewage was pumped into the Thames; solids from 8 million Londoners were dumped in the North Sea. This went on until 1998 (!) when the #EU brought the law to #ThamesWater, and insisted on safe alternatives. And what did #UKGovt do as soon as it could? They let the water co’s start pumping sewage into our waterways again. That’s what Brexit means: Shit in our rivers, shit on our beaches.

Fine episode of #InOurTime on #JohnDonne, as rich in theology & spirituality as in poetry. Every dean’s favourite poet, surely? #StPaulsCathedral (where he was dean) might have a view.

Interesting history. I need to relisten tomorrow because I retain too little of this one. I have learned more history from In Our Time than all of school.

Nobody on #InOurTime seems AT ALL fazed by the fact that the consultants on the great Bazalgette Sewage Scheme of the 1860s were called Galton & Simpson...

Someone wise once told me to "learn something about everything and everything about something". BBC's "In our time" is an ideal companion for the former. The episode about "1816 - The Year Without a Summer" was incredible. Give it a listen!

BBC’s #InOurTime radio show/podcast is almost always a treat. The episode on Persuasion by #JaneAusten is fantastic. #MelvynBragg does a great job selecting and corralling experts.

We're very lucky to have #InOurTime: it's like university lectures that anyone can sit in on. And for once, the gif is entirely appropriate.

Any other #InOurTime enthusiasts here? I enthusiastically await the broadcast (well, as I listen to them, #podcast at least) of each new episode.
This recent one in which Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss the Challenger Expedition of 1872-1876 was particularly interesting. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001fcvd #bbcradio4 #science #history #naturalhistory #oceanography #biology #marinelife

Falling asleep with: Mathematics and Platonism - #InOurTime https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0054799
I've been listening to the #BBC 's #InOurTime for years now. The episode I heard today, about #WilfredOwen is perhaps unique. Rather than merely asking his guests questions, or to read a few lines, #MelvynBragg himself intervenes to read the end of *Dulce et Decorum Est*.
Poems that are dear to his heart, it seems. Merited.

(An unusual ending to the episode too...)
