The world of court intrigue is no place for the unprepared, and definitely no place for a mild mannered lawyer. This week we follow the short career of Thomas Overbury and his friendship/ partnership with Robert Carr, a man over incredible charisma and absolutely no intellect whatsoever. With Thomas as the brains and Robert as the face it seemed like the sky was the limit in a bromance for the ages... What could possibly go wrong? Guest Host: Jack Heathcote<hr> Hosted on Acast.

Thomas Overbury - You can stick your friendship right up your bottom

The British Isles have thousands of years of history, so it's weird that all most people were taught at school was World War Two, how many wives Henry VIII had and that the Battle of Hastings took place in 1066 (always worth a try if you are trying to guess someones pin number). If you've always wanted to learn about all the bits between these events, but only if it can be done in a random and eclectic manner why not try Consistently Eccentric History? A podcast where each week you can listen in while I tell one of my friends a story about a lesser known person or event in British history, the weirder and less believable the better. With an archive of over 150 episodes you will never again be short a weird historical fact when trying to impress others.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
