Tolkein, Liberty, and Lord Acton.
This is very American pronunciation, but very clear.
And long! 32 minutes!
Unless you are interested in all of this talk's 3 themes, you will probably find it very boring.
Nonetheless Lord Acton , a Catholic like Tolkein, for example, had a fascinating life and interesting ideas.
Do you Know ANYTHING whatever about him?
No?
Perhaps you could listen to this podcast as practice for the sort of listening comprehension exercise you can get in exams where you have to listen to a boring voice talking on subjects that you know nothing about and that you wouldn't care about even if you did.
Otherwise, give this podcast a miss.
