#22 Stuff the British Stole

Another podcast rec. This one's an NPR-style podcast, which is usually not my jam (I tend to prefer long-winded conversational podcasts) but the information in this one is too compelling to pass up.

I thought I had more or less understood the depravity of British imperialism. Then I listened to this podcast and realized I knew nothing. Each episode made me so spitting mad that I had to take a break and stew for a while before I could listen to the next one.

The first episode, covering Tipu Sultan's near-life-size statue of a tiger (Tipu Sultan's emblem) mauling a man in an East India Company uniform, is an excellent place to start.

I can also now recommend a podcast pairing! Listen to the Best.Named.Dog.Ever episode of Stuff the British Stole, and then follow it up with the Gordon of Khartoum episode of Bad Gays--to hear in his own words how he felt about looting and destroying the old Summer Palace (he was upset they didn't have time to loot it more carefully! Fuck the British!!)

Marc Fennell's has been breathtakingly good: informative, engaging, confronting, disturbing and deeply moving. Superb! ๐Ÿ™

Dear @abc_tv

Can't you understand that by putting music over the stories on & now on (among others) you are making hearing the actual human voices impossible for a person?

Have a bit of bloody consideration!!!

I am so fvcking angry ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿ˜ก

@drrimmer is an excellent series. Lots of things I knew and so much more that I didnโ€™t.

Catch up on iView - Episode 3 -
Marc Fennell focuses on how the
Australian War Memorial has ended up with a mosaic from Palestine looted in the war in its collection iview.abc.net.au/show/stuff-th As someone who lived in Canberra for many years, it has always been pretty embarrassing that this piece is in a national institution.
