"The podcast has helped me learn that yet again, there's so much about our present circumstances in the world that has a link to colonialism and to decisions that now influence a lot of foreign policies that countries have with each other around the world." (Tracy DW)

This next instalment of the blog series delves into the origins of Tracy’s podcast, 'Stories to be tolled – the podcast series,' which began as a way to share extensive research that didn't make it into her books. Initially planned as a limited series, the podcast has expanded to cover a wide range of topics and diverse themes. Some of which have influenced her approach and helped the podcast to evolve.

The aim of the podcast is to invite listeners to explore the connections between past and present and to understand the enduring impact of colonialism on today's world. Join Tracy on her learning journey, as she models historical inquiry and discover how history shapes our current circumstances.
