Today’s episode features some recent highlights from PPF+ where we have just released our 50th bonus episode. In this selection you’ll hear philosopher Paul Sagar talking about his personal experiences of good and back luck; David talking about what changed for Hiroshima and the world in the moments after the bomb fell; historian of film Harrison Whittaker on the link between It’s A Wonderful Life and Sartrean existentialism; Hannah White from the Institute for Government on why British government doesn’t work at the centre; and historian of Russia Edward Acton on how to understand the confessions at the Moscow Show Trials.
Bonus #50 on PPF+ is the fourth and final part of Orwell’s War, looking at why George Orwell feared that the end of WW2 would lead to war without end.
