Witness History
'Witness History' is not your typical fireside ghost story podcast but instead, it feels like your quirky history teacher decided to throw a fun, audio pop-quiz! The BBC World Service has conjured up this remarkable podcast that's your 'TARDIS' to fascinating historical events, whisking you from the halls of power in ancient Rome to the heart of the Cold War in ripped jeans and sweat. Targeting history buffs, curious minds or anyone ever dragged to a museum, it packs enthralling, eye-witness accounts of iconic moments and little-known stories. Ready for adventure? Forget your DeLorean, sit back, pop your earphones in, and immerse yourself in time travel at its most convenient. Just remember - no touching the display artifacts!
