• Introducing: A Most Audacious Heist - Shoot For The Moon | 01

  It’s a summer night in 1998. Vienna, Austria. And petty thief Daniel Blanchard is about to carry out the heist of a lifetime. Stealing a crown jewel. The last remaining diamond Sisi Star. His plan? A daring night-time parachute jump. Daniel is no ordinary thief. His heists are ingenious, meticulously planned; his escapes from the law defy belief. And Daniel knows that if he can get his hands on the star, it will launch him into the criminal big-leagues. Daniel’s exploits unleash a relentless game of cat-and-mouse, as police track him across continents yet vanishes from their grasp.  What he doesn’t know is that the Sisi Star has a history. A dark history. Its original owner, the legendary Empress Elisabeth of Austria, used it to carve her own legacy of absolute beauty and power. That pursuit drove her to her very limits.  And now Daniel’s fate is fixed to that same star. But how long can Sisi’s star stay lucky for Daniel?  This is A Most Audacious Heist – it’s the story of a master thief, an intercontinental manhunt, and the jewel that changes everything.

• Canadian History Ehx Presents: Canadian Time Machine | Nunavut Turns 25: Land, Language, and Self-Determination

  In this episode, we step back in time with the Canadian Time Machine podcast to explore the past, present, and future of Canada’s youngest territory—Nunavut. At just 25 years old, Nunavut is still finding its footing, but it’s come a long way since its historic creation on April 1, 1999. Historian Kenn Harper, known to Nunavummiut as Ilisaijikutaaq (the tall teacher), shares stories from his time learning Inuktitut and documenting Inuit culture, including insights from his new book on the Fifth Thule Expedition. Then, Premier P.J. Akeeagok reflects on Nunavut’s journey—its triumphs, its growing pains, and the work still ahead. He discusses the significance of a recent land transfer agreement that grants Nunavut full control over its lands—a major milestone toward self-determination. More episodes are available at https://lnkfi.re/canadian-time-machine. To read the episode transcripts in French and English, and to learn more about historic Canadian milestones, please visit thewalrus.ca/canadianheritage. There is also a French counterpart of this show called Voyages Dans L’Histoire Canadienne so if you’re bilingual and want to listen to more, visit https://lnkfi.re/Voyages-dans-lhistoire-canadienne.
