In each episode we ask a leading historian, novelist or public figure the tantalising question, ”If you could travel back through time, which year would you visit?” Once they have made their choice, then they guide us through that year in three telling scenes. We have visited Pompeii in 79AD, Jerusalem in 1187, the Tower of London in 1483, Colonial America in 1776, 10 Downing Street in 1940 and th... more

Low quality of sound, as it’s very hard to listen to it. It’s dull as well! I was trying to get more interesting history about “David” but did not last. It’s so bad.
Excellent app. Just listened to David Veevers podcast. Excellent.
This really does give the feel of waking up in a different era. Every episode I’ve heard has been enthralling. I must just mention Felipe Fernandez Armesto who talked about history interrogating the dead. This is the fascination! Must just say that his accent is so similar to Bojo that I almost had a nasty shock. Did they go to the same school?
A podcast that is not scared to go beyond 30 minutes, we don’t all have the attention span of goldfish like Dan Snows outfit think. A good podcast and informative. I’ve not spotted that many inaccuracies. Always find it weird that 99% of podcasts are based on people with books to flog. Surely people are out there with a story to tell who haven’t just published a book on the subject.
Fun podcast. Interesting topics. The only detraction is the audio on the phone-in guests is sometimes poor. Oh well!
