Stuff The British Stole
They Came. They Saw. They Looted.
Throughout its reign, the British Empire stole a lot of stuff. Today the Empire’s loot sits in museums, galleries, private collections and burial sites with polite plaques, but their history is often messier than the plaques admit. In each episode, award-winning journalist, author and genetic potluck, Marc Fennell, takes you on the wild, evocative, sometimes funny, often tragic adventure of how these stolen treasures got to where they live today. These objects will ultimately help us see the modern world—and ourselves—today, in a different light. Stuff the British Stole is co-produced by CBC Podcasts and ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation).
