Delighted to be working with my friends at Picasso Film in Prague, developing, producing, and appearing in lots of great documentaries! (Can you tell that my colleague Max is Italian?)

Here's the AI Guy Walters promoting The Last Hunt for Nazi Gold...As my co-host Justine observes, we look like a Marvel franchise. (I love it, obvs.) On your screens in the UK on Monday 30th March at 9pm! www.history.co.uk/shows/last-h...

Like everyone else it seems, I've done the caricature thing.

Not a bad view from the new gaff.

COULD SOME OF THE SHITHEADS DIE NOW PLEASE INSTEAD OF THE GOOD PEOPLE

This was a minor story on London news this morning - but suspect is a real cautionary (and alarming) tale of an older man getting radicalised online. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Went on a date with the girlfriend to Second Story Books and picked up some... apropros... reading. Love to be a historian with a hyperfixation.

"...the 1930s taught us why symbolism matters. Fascism did not arrive with a single marching column, says historian Guy Walters, it arrived by making brutality feel normal, even noble." - Historian Guy Walters sbee.link/c6apjyqdng

"It is one of the oldest tricks in the authoritarian playbook: aesthetic first, policy second." This is very thorough and extremely troubling & exactly why historians of the 20th century like Guy here have a part to plat in our current moment.

With adverts like these, ICE is not recruiting for law enforcement, but recruiting for an all-out culture war, I say in the Independent. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights

It reminds me of a carols service in 2016 in Sri Lanka where organisers accidentally printed lyrics to Tupac Shukar’s single ‘Hail Mary'

Glad to hear about the trousers but please keep wearing the absurd shirts!

To anticipate three questions: 1. Yes, I know about Switzerland. 2. I'm telling you on here what I found. 3. No absurd trousers.

Delighted to see my series The Last Hunt for Nazi Gold has been announced and will be on your screens very soon! In the UK, it will be on Sky History, and if you're somewhere else, I'll let you know ASAP. Meanwhile, here's a wee trailer to whet appetites... theknowledgeonline.com/news/vicky-m...

En route to a sequins and stetsons party.

Leonardo DiCaprio has stopped using Wikipedia.

This is selling out! I know promoters always say that, but it is! So if you'd like to come...

Decadent nights.

Ten years ago, inspired by the return of my childhood interest in birds, I set myself a target: see 200 British species in a year. The result was this book. Through 2026 I’ll be revisiting it, month by month. If you want to join me, just subscribe to my newsletter. levparikian.substack.com

Don't know why I'm suddenly getting lots of follows over the past few days. Anyway, if you're not bots, you're very welcome, and thank you. I shall try to post a bit more often!

Have a smoking Christmas everyone!

The latest episode in which @guywalters.bsky.social and @philmcraig.bsky.social debate the importance of the size of a tyrant’s todger! youtu.be/y0y0lWMBcOg?...

Scaring the birds! (Or not...)

Advent bird No. 5 Little egret Scientific name: Egretta garzetta Alternative name: Persil Heron Finnish name: silkkihaikara Song: GRAAAHH GRAAAHH

Got to dress for the occasion

Negroni time!

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Gutted that I couldn't make The Chap Grand Flaneur Winter Walk on Sunday. (Thanks, achilles tendinitis.) I was all ready to go in homage to Lord Fairhaven... thechap.co.uk/am-i-chap-oc...

Today’s article is up, and it’s a look at some French satire/humour from the First World War achurchill.substack.com/p/photo-arti...

It’s 55 years to the month since they blew up that whale. Seeing as we are doomed to repeat our mistakes, and that it is scientifically proven we are in the stupidest timeline, I say we do it again.

This looks like it should be accompanying a feature in early 90s NME.

Holborn strolling.

Is 'In Our Time' quite the much-loved and venerated broadcasting institution that the BBC makes it out to be?

Lots of ways to be a man! Problems can lie in fitting into societal expectations of 'manliness', and men can be crap at dealing with that. I've never wanted to hurt myself, but many do, and a British man kills himself every two hours. It's why I support www.mensmindsmatter.org #InternationalMensDay

Thank you!

To celebrate International Men’s Day, I will be making a sincere and heartfelt work of art about the impossibility of sane work-life balance in patriarchal capitalism, and it will be a cross between The Sopranos and The Incredibles, and therefore exactly the same as both.
