A notable find

Today I came across the “famous” Reith Lectures (named after the first Director General of the BBC). If you were ignorant like me to their existance, they can be found at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/reith/
Of considerable note is the collection of historic Reith lectures, and in particular the one by Bertrand Russell, where he talks about social cohesion and human nature: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/reith/historic_audio/reith_historic.shtml
It certainly makes for good listening. Just a shame that they’re only available in RealCrap format.

I love the Reith lectures! Used to watch them on the beeb when I was a kid. Didn’t realise you could use real player in college. Like the blogs new look.

Yep, works like a charm. It’s handy for watching RTE. Thanks man, I made the banner image myself.
