History Talk, the history podcast from Origins: Current Events in Historical PerspectiveEarly Encounters with PenguinsWho doesn’t love penguins? Join Ellen Arnold to learn about the many different roles that penguins took on as Europeans first began to encounter them in the mid-1500s, from quirky oddity to salvation for the starving. Over the course of the following centuries, Europeans had many different interactions with penguins, and these shaped how they understood what the birds were. Sailors and scientists alike brought back accounts of the strange birds, which were only slowly understood to be unique to the South.

History Talk, the history podcast from Origins: Current Events in Historical PerspectiveWhat was Wrong with the Judges at the Salem Witch Trials?While most of the books written about the Salem witch trials concern those who were accused of witchcraft and their accusers, Matt Goldish's new book, "Science and Specters" at Salem, turns the spotlight on the judges. They were, after all, the men who decided to accept these accusations and move the trials forward. Historians have long wondered why the judges accepted evidence based on visions of apparitions and "touch tests.” Goldish offers some unexpected answers.
Speaker Note: Matt Goldish would like to add a more complete response to one of the questions asked him after his talk. Not all those co...2024-11-2359 min

History TalkReproductive Politics and the Making of Modern IndiaBeginning in the late nineteenth century, India played a pivotal role in global conversations about population and reproduction. In this talk about her new book, Reproductive Politics and the Making of Modern India, Sreenivas demonstrates how colonial administrators, postcolonial development experts, nationalists, eugenicists, feminists, and family planners all aimed to reform reproduction to transform both individual bodies and the body politic. Across the political spectrum, people insisted that regulating reproduction was necessary and that limiting the population was essential to economic development.

History TalkThe Long History of #MeTooFrom Donald Trump’s Access Hollywood tapes to the allegations against Harvey Weinstein, sexual harassment and sexual violence seem to have suddenly burst into the news cycle. Nearly every day, new allegations against powerful men emerge as more women come forward. But, while many are heralding the rise of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements as an opportunity for change, many of those who are raising awareness about these issues today have protested them in the past. So what’s different now? And how does contemporary activism fit into the longer history of awareness? On this episode of History Talk, hosts...2021-02-0941 min

Waitin' Since Last Saturday: A Georgia Football PodcastWSLS 050 | Paul Harvey Edition, UGA Barely Beats Something Called Nicholls StIn this episode, Will, Tony & Scott try to figure out what happened with Georgia as they barely defeated FCS team, Nicholls State 26-24 at Sanford Stadium on 09/10/16.
Interesting, there were similar parallels between this game and the 2001 Tennessee/Georgia game, a game made famous from Larry Munson's legendary call, titled "The Hob-Nailed Boot" game.
The game play was not similar, but what was similar was the final score, 26-24 and that is not a very common final score in football. But the fact that both games featured a coach in his first season (Mark Richt in 2001 & Kirby Smart in 2016), a...2016-09-1225 min
MCMP – Mathematical Philosophy (Archive 2011/12)Concept CalculusHarvey M. Friedman (OSU) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium (31 October, 2012) titled "Concept Calculus". Abstract: Concept Calculus develops theories in first and second order predicate calculus arising from the analysis of various commonsense notions. The systems arising in this way are shown to closely correspond to various well known systems arising in the foundations of mathematics - via mutual interpretations. Initial work on Concept Calculus focused on the general notions of better than and much better than. More recent developments surround a basic notion of universe, based on a principle of plenitude. Universes correspond to Peano Arithmetic. ZFC, and...2012-11-071h 16MCMP – Mathematical Philosophy (Archive 2011/12)Transcendental ProofsHarvey M. Friedman (OSU) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium (30 October, 2012) titled "Transcendental Proofs". Abstract: We discuss our Transcendental Proofs project, spanning approximately 45 years, which aims to uncover mathematically fundamental, rich, and diverse subareas of athematics which can only be developed by going well beyond the usual ZFC axioms for mathematics. The discussion will have mathematical, computational, and philosophical components.The mathematical component focuses on long finite sequences, adjacent amsey theorems, finite trees and graphs, continuous maps between countable sets, Borel diagonalization and selection, Boolean Relation Theory, and Embedded Maximal Cliques. The computational component focuses on predictions from higher...2012-11-071h 19
