Elsewhere, how did anyone in 1160 survive without caffeine? And is there a worse person to meet than a coked-up Nazi? All this and more this week and if you’ve got anything to add, you know what to do: [email protected]

This is Part 2! For Part 1, check the feed!

This week we’re looking at those who achieved the extraordinary and at incredibly youthful age! We have the Tudor boy King, Edward VI, to discuss. Britain’s youngest ever Prime Minister (just 24 years old!!), it’s Pitt the Younger. And from France, we’ll hear a bit of the life of Joan of Arc.

And this week we’re discussing: what was life like before the advent of reviews? Have you ever seen the secret book that travel agents had in the 90s? If you’ve got anything to add on that or anything else, you know what to do: [email protected]
