The Historical Gadfly with Timothy Nunan is a podcast and conversation devoted to history, current events, good books, and the relationship between all three. In it, Timothy Nunan, a graduate student at the University of Oxford and a scholar of international history and intellectual history, interviews interesting people on their interests, their musings on current events and history, and their recent work. The podcast consists of periodic interviews of approximately an hour, with a focus on 20th century history, international affairs, and recent books - but it's a conversation that's also open to surprises. From bad 1980s movies to Pakistan to Russian history, the Historical Gadfly offers a quixotic, but also demanding and challenging, conversation for intelligent listeners.
