Welcome to Run With Me On This - a history podcast with a difference. Each episode covers an interesting topic and you can choose if you want to listen to it with music or without. The music version is upbeat and perfect if you want to listen whilst you're out for a run. The beat free version is designed for you to listen to whilst you’re relaxing, commuting or doing the housework.

This episode is all about MONEY. Why were Swedish coins bigger than a dog? How did Hitler help America recover from the Great Depression? And are postage stamps legal tender? I’m going to answer all of these questions and more, so if you’re ready why not… Run With Me On This.
