What happens when history stops being polite? In this
wide-ranging author interview, Marc Fennell explains Stuff the
British Stole, an “Indiana Jones in reverse” journey through the
British empire, and the wild histories hidden behind polite
little museum labels. We discuss cultural ownership, his career
journey, and the extraordinary stories about contested objects in
the world's biggest museums and galleries.

First, Read is hosted by Charle Malycon, and this episode's guest
is Marc Fennell.
