In the shadow of the Himalayas, a new power ascends. In this episode, Ewen tells the story of India. From the first humans to cross the mountain passes and enter the deep jungles, to the ancient origins of Indian philosophy and religion, the coming of Alexander, the Maurya and the Mughals, the East India Company, the Raj, and the modern world’s largest democracy: hear the tale of India as never before. How has India’s ancient past shaped the country today? What are India’s strengths and weaknesses?

episode Russia - The Dying Empire cover

Russia - The Dying Empire

The cold, vast plains of Eastern Europe bear witness to a dark and ancient history. In this episode, Ewen tells the story of Russia. Hear the sounds of ancient contests between settled people of the riverlands and the fierce, horse-riding nomads of the open steppe. Learn of the rise and fall of kingdoms amid the waterways and deep forests of the Russian heartlands. Discover Russia’s long history of imperial triumphs and violent invasions, of kings and revolutions, of war and peace; and enter the eye of the Kremlin, as its gaze looks west. How has Russia’s geography and ancient past shaped the country today? What motivates Russia’s powerful and often tyrannical leaders? And what will happen when Vladimir Putin falls at last? ------------------ Musical themes, tracks and elements in this episode are licenced via PremiumBeat, a Shutterstock company.

episode China - An Ancient Giant Returns cover

China - An Ancient Giant Returns

In the dusty uplands of eastern Asia begins the story of three rivers that became the lifeblood of a superpower. In this episode, Ewen Levick tells the story of China. He explores how civilisation first arose in the floodplains of three major river deltas, some of the most fertile and abundant lands on Earth. Hear the story of the first dynasties and how they took a sign from the heavens as their mandate to rule. Discover China’s long history of golden ages and violent collapse, of philosophy and invention, of war and tribute; and hear how it all came crashing down in the Industrial Age, only to rise again in the 21st century. How has China’s ancient past shaped the country we know today? What do China’s leaders fear most of all? And are the US and China destined to go to war? ------------------ A History of the Future is produced by Southern Skies Media on behalf of Yaffa Media (www.yaffa.com.au).

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
