  • 75. The Christmas episode

    For our 75th episode, we have some fun at the British Museum. 

    We looked at some of the objects through the eyes of a technical communicator.

    On the way, we managed to get a few things wrong. We mispronounced Jean-François Champollion's surname. It also turns out that the rules to the Game of Ur were discovered on a cuneiform clay tablet in the late 1980s.
