The BHP is a chronological retelling of the history of Britain with a particular focus upon the lives of the people. You won’t find a dry recounting of dates and battles here, but instead you’ll learn about who these people were and how their desires, fears, and flaws shaped the scope of this island at the edge of the world. And some of those desires are downright scandalous.

Begin With A Bang
It was early September of 1087, and for weeks…nearly two months, in fact… people had been discussing William’s impending death, and worrying about what would happen next. And for good reason. This family, which ruled over Normandy, had a history of infighting and civil wars, especially during times of succession.

The Lucky Few
You know, I almost titled the last episode “The Gang Goes To A Funeral” but the trouble was that the gang /didn’t/ go to the funeral. All of them decided they had somewhere else to be.

Odo? Oh Yes!
Somewhere around the time William the First was bursting out of his tomb like roasted chestnut and William the Second was making it rain with his dead dad’s money….something was turning in western culture as a whole.

Odo's Rebellion: The Cold War
Primogeniture, the practice of handing all wealth and power from father to the eldest son, had done a lot to consolidate power along single family lines. But it created all manner of problems for …well, pretty much everyone else.

Customer Reviews
The place to be if you’re an Anglophile
Remember when Netflix was disk only?? Yeah that’s when I was continuously ordering the episodes of Simon Schama’s History of Britain over and over and over.
All of you Game of Throne fans will appreciate the real historical events that GRRM used to create his amazing series and so many other details as Jamie, the narrator and creator of this incredible podcast recreates history from multiple sources of documentation.
It just keeps getting better and better!!! This podcast deserves awards‼️🏆🥳
Jamie, your storytelling is so much FUN for me😅 please continue the music and don’t ever listen to ridiculous criticism.
#ShortPants💀😭
Of course I appreciate Z and the lil germ factory just as much🫶
Subjective woke history
Takes for ever to get to the point as if trying to buy time to make more episodes. Too much modern spin to take seriously. If you think opinions are facts you’ll love it. I’ve heard better on History Hit.
No time to read?
No worries, Jamie has you covered. This podcast is awesome and I learned a ton about Britain while sitting in traffic.
