We all love to bash on a terrible film, and Gods of Egypt was definitely worthy of being torn to shreds. Join me alongside Will and Patrick from the Cloak and Dagger Podcast and Patrick from A Little History Podcast as we discuss this film and everything that was wrong about it (spoilers... there's a lot wrong with it). Will you gain the same hatred for Bek that the rest of us developed over the course of the film? Let us know your thoughts if you've seen the film as well. Be sure to check o...
To celebrate womens history month we bring a special episode where I interview Rosie Maggs from the Brooklands Museum about the amazing female racers that could be seen at Brooklands in Surrey. Rosie delves into the life of three women: Elsie 'Bill' Wisdom, Jessie Ennis and Kay Petre and their story racing at Brooklands. Each tale is full of thrills, crashes and inspiring moments that are definitely worthy of their own film. For womens history month Brooklands are dedicating the entire month...
Whoever thought that sticking cannons onto ocean liners was a good idea needs to be referred to in a psychiatric ward... but my god is the idea funny! With submarines causing havoc on shipping lanes and the sudden end to the rules of naval warfare the British and Germans began divising new ways to shoot at each other. One of these ideas involved converting ocean liners into battleships that could attack when no one would expect it. But in 1914 two of these ships, the RMS Carmania and the SMS...
Following the British Civil Wars a team of assassins conspired to bring an end to Oliver Cromwell with gunpowder and smoke. This team was led by one Miles Sindercombe, former soldier with a bone to pick with the new Protectorate. But what became of Miles Sindercombe and his gang of conspirators? Listen on to find out! It is with great pride I announce the beginning of the second season of Jammy History! I have some great episodes lined up (that should be released in a timely manner this time...

The story of a court dwarf sounds at first to be an uneventful tale, one filled with gimmicks and jokes but nothing more. Yet the court dwarf of King Charles I could be considered to have had one of the most extraordinary lives of his time. For he was not just an entertainer but a soldier, a duellist and one who survived the horrors of slavery. Tune in to listen to this tale of adventure and laughs.

The history of England is full of battles, but which has been referred to as the battle that made England? The general consensus is that it was the battle of Brunanburh, an epic clash between the Anglo-Saxon king Æthelstan against a coalition of vikings, Scots, Welsh (or Britons) and Irishmen. It was the battle that marked the first time England would be a united kingdom under one banner. But despite it's significance, we don't know where the battle actually took place. So join me as I go thr...
The idea that man would one day go to the moon is often perceived to be a modern concept. But in the 17th century one man published a book that not only detailed his own thoughts on what the moon was but also suggested a method on how we could travel to the moon and back. Although his conclusions are indeed very whacky the book itself is very interesting. This episode explores the contents of his book as well as looks at the man himself. Who was he? And why was he so interested in the moon? ...
