HISTSPOTIHRYesterday I uploaded the last podcasts from the 2012-13 session.  I’ll admit as soon as the last file went up I left the office in search of a much needed caffeine boost!  You might have noticed, but the last few days have been very busy with lots of podcasts appearing on the site all at once.  I’ve uploaded files from various conferences including this year’s Anglo-American on the topic of Food in History; the Materialities of Urban Life in Early Modern Europe interdisciplinary conference which looked into debates regarding the public, private, commercial, domestic and civic material cultures.  Then finally podcasts from the Mobilising London’s housing histories: the provision of homes since 1850 conference (click on the links to access these podcasts).  Lots of conferences, lots of seminars, a great swath of new content!

We now have 590 podcasts in total on History SPOT.  That’s no small number and has been achieved over a four year period, most of which have been created over the last year.  Of these the majority come from the IHR’s seminar programmes (now numbering 26 groups who have given podcasting a go!) and from 20 different conferences held by the IHR.  History SPOT is also home to a smattering of lectures, workshops and interviews all recorded as audio or video.

Below is a long list – or index – of all the podcasts that have been created this year.  Hopefully there will be something for everybody.  Personally one of my favourites was this year’s policy forum from the Anglo-American conference (see the third from top).  Some of the audio is a bit wonky as there was only one microphone but five speakers, yet the topic of discussion was highly interesting.  The title is perhaps misleading.  This ‘forum’ was all about the food industry in the present and how it will cope in the future with a rising population, threats of global warming, and (seemingly) no one prepared to deal head-on with the major issues facing us in terms of food production.   It was all a bit scary really.  As a result I might start looking into getting an allotment for when the world ends.

Also of note:
