    #35 Medieval S*x (Bonus episode!)

    OWAT returns properly on Monday 29th September 2025, so to fill the gap over the next couple of weeks we're dropping a few old subscriber episodes onto the feed. Today we've got the only episode ever recorded without Elis - with the marvellous Matthew Crosby sitting in for him. This episode is Medieval S*x and yes, it’s worth pointing out that history’s horniest podcaster Tom Craine came up with this one. Who would you go back and kiss through cling film? Do you love creme egg gloop? If you’ve got answers to these or any other questions, please do get in touch: hello@ohwhatatime.com Oh and please follow us on Twitter at @ohwhatatimepod And Instagram at @ohwhatatimepod And thank you to Dr Daryl Leeworthy for his help with this week’s research. Thank you to Dan Evans for the artwork (idrawforfood.co.uk). We'll be back soon!

    #139 Alexander the Great (Part 10)

    We wrap up Alexander’s legacy by looking at his cultural impact. On screen, everyone from Richard Burton to William Shatner (yes, really) takes a shot at bringing him to life. And in literature, from medieval romances to Mary Renault, Alexander refuses to stay in the past — his legend constantly rewritten for every age.

    #138 Alexander the Great (Part 9)

    We explore how Alexander’s story echoes through time. In history, his empire shapes Rome, Egypt, and the borders of knowledge itself. Also - is it just us or were 80s and 90s playground not quite up to today’s health and safety standards?

    #137 Alexander the Great (Part 8)

    In the Indus Valley, Alexander pushes into modern-day Pakistan and India, defeating warrior queens and kings before his men call time at the edge of the known world. Then, the long road home — a deadly desert march, political purges, and the loss of Hephaestion — sets the stage for Alexander’s final days.

    #136 Alexander the Great (Part 7)

    We’re chasing Alexander into Central Asia, where Darius meets a grim fate and local satraps learn the cost of betrayal. And what did people do in the pre-freezer age? The mind boggles.

    Egypt rolls out the red carpet, hailing him as Pharaoh and even a living god.

    It’s Alexander vs. Darius in a showdown for the ages. First, the Battle of Issus turns the Persian king into a fugitive and Alexander into master of the Levant. Elsewhere, we’re discussing terrible marketing strategies including the infamous ‘ten cent brawl’.
