Interesting 2003 episode from the #InOurTime archive.
Some topics turn out to be an ambitious ask for the format. A seemingly frustrating discussion for all involved, including @raymodraco.bsky.social and @barrycsmith.bsky.social.

I don't mind a Misha as the new Melvin at all. This is good stuff.

Thoroughly enjoyed
this conversation about
The Code of Hammurabi.
Misha Glenny is an
excellent host, a worthy
successor to
Melvyn Bragg.

BBC Radio 4 #InOurTime doing Hammurabi this week. Best ever quote from a long ago colleague: "Isn't that a bit like a turnip?"

Circling mosaic used as the ident for ‘In Our Time’ on BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.
After four editions under its new presenter, I feel the much-loved ‘In Our Time’ in not just in safe hands but in the best possible hands.

After hearing the excellent @bachrach.bsky.social talking to @oldfortunatus.bsky.social earlier this week about Richard II, it's great to see her book at the top of the reading list for today's #InOurTime on Henry IV Part 1.
Looking forward to listening 🎧📻

@mishaglenny.bsky.social Bravo! #InOurTime is still information & interesting. You're doing a grand job after succeeded Melvin Bragg. He will be missed of course, but you have "filled his boots" perfectly. Sincere thanks. #BBCRadio4

Melvyn Bragg has left some really big shoes for Misha Glenny to fill 😬:

However genial & informed he is, I swear Misha Glenny's more measured delivery has lost a couple of minutes of panel discussion from #BBC #InOurTime. Still, a veritable #UniversityOfTheAir

Only #BBC would do this. Misha Glenny presents his first edition of #InOurTime, succeeding Melvyn Bragg who retired. He+his guests discuss the landmark work #OnLiberty by #JohnStuartMill, published in 1859+the increasing recognition for his wife Harriet Taylor Mill's contribution.

Not trying to make too big a claim here, but it's been a rough time for the world but now #InOurTime is back, so I'm pretty sure we'll see an uptick in wisdom, thoughtfulness, empathy, and general smarts.
Will always miss Bragg - but loving MG already. Thanks BBC team.

Simon Schaffer used to be a talking head on TV documentaries but you don't see him these days. He's in this 2003 discussion, along with Jenny Uglow and Peter Jones about the Lunar Society. #InOurTime www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

You'd think a radio show called The Earth's Origins would be about, you know, the origins of the Earth. But no, it was just a brief discussion about what we understand about how old the Earth might be. #InOurTime

Well done to the three guests for attempting to describe the complex geological history of Britain and Ireland in 45 minutes. #InOurTime www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
