A wonderful broadcast! #InOurTime #Dadaism Thanks Misha, @simontillotson.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

It's only a short hop from #pataphysics to #Dadaism so *hoping* against hope that Misha Glenny will introduce today's #InOurTime with the one and only youtu.be/AhZOiZZ4eI4?...
(9am #BBCRadio4 & #BBCSounds) www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

It would be magnificent if Misha and his guests this morning just say "Dadadadadadadadada..." for three quarters of an hour. #DADA #InOurTime

In Our Time - Wittgenstein - BBC Sounds The life, work and legacy of the 20th century philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein.

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.

In Our Time - Margaret Beaufort - BBC Sounds How one woman helped her son survive the Wars of the Roses to become the first Tudor king.

I've just caught up with the extended episode of this week's #InOurTime about Margaret Beaufort

Such a FANTASTIC episode 👏

In Our Time - The Code of Hammurabi - BBC Sounds The impact of the wide-ranging laws of Hammurabi, King of Babylon from 4,000 years ago.

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?"

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.

In Our Time - Henry IV Part 1 - BBC Sounds Shakespeare's powerful exploration of power and succession with Hotspur, Hal and Falstaff.

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

Misha Glenny to present BBC Radio 4’s In Our Time The much loved series returns on 15 January 2026

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

“Misha Glenny To present BBC Radio 4’s In Our Time” [2025], BBC (www.bbc.com/mediacentre/...).

Today's "Saddest Piece of Info": scientists exploring the Mariana Trench (western Pacific Ocean, ard 11000 meters deep) found cigarette packets and cardboard boxes and dear gods, can we just stop being trashy and dropping our stuff *everywhere*
BTW Misha Glenny doing bang up job as #InOurTime host

We dived into the Mariana Trench by accident. #inourtime

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

Glad that Misha has retained Melvyn's "HELLO!"
#InOurTime

they should do an #InOurTime on #InOurTime as a media/public service broadcasting, and cultural phenomenon, with Melvin as a guest ofc. cc @simontillotson.bsky.social

In Our Time - On Liberty - BBC Sounds John Stuart Mill's argument for the limits of power that society has over the individual.

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.

Excellent first episode of #InOurTime with Misha Glenny at the helm. A good choice.
www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

The baton passed successfully. #inourtime

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.
