Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from the death of Adolf Hitler, the first spacewalk and the making of the movie Jaws, to celebrity tortoise Lonesome George, the Kobe earthquake and the invention of superglue. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: Eva Peron – Argentina’s Evita; President Ronald Reagan and his famous ‘tear down this wall’ speech; Thomas Keneally on why he wrote Schindler’s List; and Jacques Derrida, France’s ‘rock star’ philosopher. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the civil rights swimming protest, the disastrous D-Day rehearsal, and the death of one of the world’s oldest languages.
Eight tracks, a book and a luxury: what would you take to a desert island? Guests share the soundtrack of their lives.

I nya podden Mer än bara morsa! pratar Kenza Zouiten Subosic & Ines Kokic om livet som 3-barnsmorsor och allt vad det innebär. Med en öppensinnad inställning och nära till skratt tar de er bakom kulisserna i både familjekaoset och influencervärlden. Förhoppningsvis leder denna resa till att hitta tillbaka till sig själv utöver mammarollen, för man är ju mer än bara morsa. Eller?
