On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

I had to strip off the first part of a bunch of file names. You can do this inside of Windows Powershell, using this simple script:
get-childitem *.dat | rename-item -newname { [string]($._name).substring(9) }
The file extension and the numeric value are variable based on your needs.
WARNING: THIS WILL AFFECT EVERY FILE IN YOUR CHOSEN DIRECTORY, so move all the files that you need to rename to their own folder. And, it can't be redone, so make a backup beforehand, and make sure you're in the correct folder before you execute.
