PART 1, HEADLINES: Caesar crosses the Rubicon, Joan of Arc goes on trial and Alfred the Great sees off the Vikings (kind off)

Joe Forrester brings you three headlines from the week in history, focusing on the lesser-known, more unusual and often downright odd.

Every week Joe is joined by a special guest as they discuss that show’s stories and a whole load of puerile nonsense besides.

This is the podcast that shows you history is sexy, sweary and full of people acting like utter plonkers… Imagine Game of Thrones with Benny Hill music.
