Join Hari and Kimi as they delve into the extraordinary life of Stanley Green, a man who patrolled Oxford Street for 25 years with a sandwich board preaching "protein wisdom!"
Discover how this "human billboard" became a London icon, and how his obsession with low-protein diets and dampened libidos led to his self-published pamphlets, his run-ins with the law, and his eventual recognition in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Was he a visionary, a crank, or something else entirely? Tune in to find out!
