Franz Ferdinand

Rich or poor, everybody wants their hair to be poppin, and sometimes that means a wig, Airheads. So let’s talk about hairpieces, a conversation which involves far more syphilis than you may have otherwise expected. Also, ProCho educates us on the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand (turns out it was a big deal!) TRENDINGNOWBe sure to follow Puttin' On Airs, Trae Crowder and Corey Ryan Forrester on ALL SOCIAL MEDIA!!!Puttin' On Airshttps://www.facebook.com/PuttinOnAirs/https://twitter.com/puttinonairspodhttps://www.instagram.com/puttinonairspod/Trae Crowderhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTHsQd-vRXK1bp4vpifl6yAhttps://www.facebook.com/traecrowderhttps://twitter.com/traecrowderhttps://www.instagram.com/officialtraecrowderhttps://www.patreon.com/TraeCrowderCorey Ryan Forresterhttps://www.youtube.com/c/CoreyRyanForresterComedyhttps://www.facebook.com/CoreyRyanForrester/https://twitter.com/coreyrforresterhttps://www.instagram.com/coreyrforrester/SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE PAGE to WATCH full episodes EVERY WEEK PLUS BONUS CONTENT! - https://www.youtube.com/c/PuttinOnAirsPodcastPLEASE SUPPORT OUR AWESOME SPONSORS:BLUECHEW - Bluechew gives you confidence in bed every time.

Franz Ferdinand's death is one of the most famous in history. But who was this man killed on 28th June 1914 by 'the shot heard round the world'? And how did it lead to the First World War? WARNING: This episode contains discussions of suicide which some listeners may find distressing.

Europe in 1914 was a tinderbox of imperial tensions and the spark that would light the conflagration would be the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. But there is much more to this story than simply the murder of two royals on the street of Sarajevo. Archduke Franz Ferdinand was an often misunderstood figure seemingly hard and old-fashioned. But in private he was a dedicated family man and husband who had married for love against the wishes of the Emporer and he and Sophie had endured snubs and humiliation at court because of it. He had travelled the world and hoped to reform the Austrian-Hungarian empire he was supposed to one day rule. Sue Woolmans, historian and author of The Assassination of the Archduke: Sarajevo 1914 and the Murder that Changed the World, joins the podcast to discuss the real Franz Ferdinand. She guides Dan through the life of Franz Ferdinand and the incompetence, bad luck and chance on the day that would lead to the death of the Archduke and begin a century of conflict.Mixed and Mastered by Dougal PatmoreIf you'd like to learn more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit - subscribe today!

"You need your common sense, a sense of humour and a sense of absurdity." Franz Ferdinand front man Alex Kapranos talks through the 'absurdities' of fame and what it would take for the band to play in Russia once again.

To celebrate the release of their Greatest Hits album Hits To The Head, Alex and Bob from Franz Ferdinand zoomed in from Scotland to chat with Tracey Donaldson about their return to playing live and intimate shows, getting their new drummer Audrey and what lies ahead for 2022.

The band Franz Ferdinand formed in 2002, in Glasgow, Scotland. They’ve won the Mercury Prize and two BRIT Awards, they have five Grammy nominations, and they’ve sold millions of albums. One of their first singles is this song, “Take Me Out,” and it’s also their biggest hit. In this episode, singer and guitarist Alex Kapranos tells the story of how he and his bandmates made the song, from the original home demo to the final studio recording.
