For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

Scottish History Out of Order

Beranda serial•Feed

Hosted by Michael Wilson-Park, Scottish History Out Of Order is a Scottish history podcast with a difference. It realises that Scotland is more than angry clansmen, kilts, bagpipes and shortbread. These are short, intimate portrayals of moments in history, and the stories it tells are people’s stories.
