History's Heroes: the BBC's breathtaking, high stakes, story-led history podcast feed that shines a light on extraordinary people from across history. Series include 'History's Youngest Heroes' with narration from Nicola Coughlan and 'History's Secret Heroes' with narration from Helena Bonham Carter. In History's Youngest Heroes, actress Nicola Coughlan (Bridgerton, Derry Girls) tells twelve true stories of rebellion, risk and the radical power of youth. Before she became a Hollywood star, how did the young Audrey Hepburn take on the Nazis during World War Two? As a young activist, how did Nelson Mandela attempt to overthrow the South African government to end apartheid? Did Queen of England, Lady Jane Grey give up her faith or face the executioner's axe? Why did Terry Fox, a young man with a prosthetic leg, set out to run the length of Canada? Join Nicola to hear inspiring tales of young heroes both famous and forgotten, whose bravery demonstrates how young people can change history. In History's Secret Heroes, Helena Bonham Carter recounts untold stories of heroes from World War Two whose acts of resistance, deception and courage helped defeat fascism. In each episode, Helena shines a light on the spies, Royal Air Force pilots, army officers, prisoners of war and double agents who risked their lives to save others. Learn all about forgotten stories of survival, bravery and espionage - from the opera singers who helped dozens of Jewish people escape Nazi Germany, to the woman that Winston Churchill would go on to call his favourite spy. Previous episodes have looked at the story of the American actor George Takei (Star Trek), who was imprisoned without trial along with 12,000 other Japanese Americans, and Bela Hazan, a young Jewish woman who went undercover at the Gestapo headquarters to fight against the Nazis. From secret missions behind enemy lines in occupied Europe, to underground resistance movements across Germany, France, Poland, Great Britain and beyond, History's Secret Heroes reveals how ordinary people can make an extraordinary impact. Join Nicola and Helena for tales of deception, rebellion, risk and courage.

Season 6 - I’m not all the way through but by way of warning, this is the darkest most disgusting material I’ve ever listened to. I’ve heard some really dark podcasts but this is the worst. You can’t effectively tell this story without including the graphic detail. I give a lot of credit to the producers for not holding back. But it is going to be unbearable for many. Just be warned.
Please don’t join a cult

Every time I listen to a podcast or read about a cult, I just am so frustrated, but this reaches new heights. I know that hindsight is 20/20, but please don’t sacrifice your conscience for “connectivity” and enlightenment. If anyone claims to have the answers to everything you’re seeking, just assume they’re lying. No one has all the answers. And please have boundaries. Boundaries are healthy. If people are asking you to change your boundaries for them, it’s most likely not a good thing. Lord have mercy. I just can’t with the things these people did. Have boundaries! There are no simple answers to the mystery of existence. And if someone tells you to quit your job and participate in naked massage and drink piss to reach your “spiritual” peak, please run far away from them. 🙏🏽 Monsters cannot continue to destroy lives and take our power with their manipulation if we refuse to let them.
I never had heard of these
