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.

Reisen helfen uns die Welt besser zu verstehen. Dieser Podcast zeigt wie.
Im Weltwach Podcast unterhält sich Erik Lorenz jede Woche mit Abenteurern, Reisenden und Forschenden über aufregende Expeditionen und lebensverändernde Streifzüge. Gäste wie Reinhold Messner, Jane Goodall und Bear Grylls erzählen vom Ringen mit der Natur. Aufschlussreichen Begegnungen. Der Konfrontation mit dem Unbekannten. Und unterhaltsamen Missgeschicken unterwegs.
Sie sprechen über kulturelle, ökologische, soziale und politische Fragen des Reisens. Und liefern Denkanstöße dafür, selbst aufzubrechen und ausgetretene Pfade zu verlassen.
Und fortan gibt es noch mehr Weltwach! Zusätzlich zu unseren Haupt-Episoden (Interviews und Reisereportagen), die jeden Samstag erscheinen, veröffentlichen wir mittwochs Bonusfolgen aus den rotierenden Formaten "Weltwach Reiseflops" und "Weltwach Extrem". Falls euch das immer noch nicht reicht und ihr unsere Arbeit zudem unterstützen möchtet: Als Mitglied des Weltwach Supporters Clubs erhaltet ihr (neben allen - werbefreien! - regulären Folgen) Zugriff auf unsere Exklusiv-Formate "Weltwach Plus" und "Weltwach Backstage".

Aunque Catalina y Jorge nacieron el mismo día, comparten el mismo apellido y hasta estudiaron en colegios vecinos, sus mundos no podrían ser más distintos: él es exguerrillero de las FARC e hijo de uno de sus comandantes más buscados. Ella es influencer de la derecha y cercana al ex presidente que combatió a esa guerrilla.
A pesar de sus diferencias se enamoraron y luego se enfrentaron a la resistencia de sus familiares y amigos en el país con el conflicto interno armado más largo del continente.
Su boda se volvió noticia en Colombia.
Y tú, ¿te enamorarías de alguien con ideas políticas completamente distintas a las tuyas?
Podkasti që të çon thellë në historitë e vërteta të njerëzve tanë.
Çdo episod është një bisedë e lirë, e sinqertë dhe pa filtra me personalitete nga të gjitha fushat e jetës në Kosovë.
Këtu flitet nga shpirti, jo nga skenari.
