Quick recommendation: I know I’ve mentioned the radio show/podcast In Our Time before. They bring three experts in, who are led by host Melvyn Bragg as they plow through a particular subject in forty-five minutes. The latest I’ve heard is from February, where they go through the “Evolution of Horses.” I find all of these fascinating, but the ones where they take an everyday sort of subject and do a deep dive on it–the one on glass is another example–are pretty fantastic.
