History Rage is the history podcast that challenges everything you thought you knew about the past. Every Monday, host Paul Bavill invites professional historians, acclaimed authors and leading experts to expose historical myths, debunk popular misconceptions and reveal the truth behind the stories that shaped our world.
From ancient history and the Vikings to medieval Britain, the Tudor monarchy, the British Empire, world wars and modern history, History Rage tackles the myths, clichés and half-truths that refuse to die. Were Viking helmets really horned? Did Britain fight alone in 1940? Were medieval people really filthy? Discover what actually happened, why the accepted story is often wrong, and how history is far more fascinating than the version you were taught.
Whether you love British history, European history, military history, social history or uncovering the hidden stories behind famous people and events, History Rage brings you fascinating historical facts, surprising discoveries and expert insights with a healthy dose of irreverence.
Forget dry lectures and dusty textbooks. This is history with attitude: passionate historians challenging conventional wisdom, questioning the accepted narrative and raging against the historical myths we need to stop believing.
