Samuel Proctor Oral History Program - PodcastsJoin Now to Follow
The Samuel Proctor Oral History Program at the University of Florida collects, preserves, and promotes the oral histories that shape the economic, social, political, religious, intellectual, and environmental experiences of our lives for the benefit and critical analysis of future generations. Oral history is an invaluable method of gathering and preserving the past and present through interviews with participants. Spoken memories constitute both the oldest type of historical inquiry, predating the written word, and, with the advent of the tape recorder in the 1940s, one of the most modern methods. Current podcasts will focus on our extensive digital library and concentrate on the following subjects: Academic History, Black History, Civil Rights, Labor, Water and the Environment, Women's History, and World War II.

Brandi and Danni are two sisters who just happen to be dead inside. With no fulfilling careers, longtime relationships, or children, they turn to the only thing promised to give them a feeling: art. Every week, Brandi and Danni will get face to face with art, discuss the wack history behind it, and evaluate its life-giving powers. Join us on Art Sistory, where two sisters put art to the ultimate test: can it make you feel alive? If you listen in, maybe you will feel just a little less dead inside too.

NightclubbingJoin Now to Follow
Many people view parties as places to dance or to find someone to hook up with. They are, but sometimes they’re a whole lot more. On Nightclubbing, we tell the story of nightclubs that have transcended their four walls, through the voices of the owners, DJs, doormen and regulars who spent countless nights inside of them. Hosted by the veteran radio producer and reporter Julia Alsop and Red Bull Music’s Todd L. Burns, the series draws on extensive research by leading music journalists into all sides of some of music history’s most iconic clubs, from their music and door policies, to the wider communities that sprung up around them and their enduring influence on culture. Wear comfortable shoes and cut right to the front of the queue – Nightclubbing gets you past the door into some of history’s most critical nights out.
