  • #109 Collapse (Part 2)
    Apr 28 2025

    This is Part 2! For Part 1, check the feed!


    This week we’re taking a look at the moments in history when things went to pot. Come with us to see Louis Napoleon’s self-coup in mid-19th century France, the frequent dynastic collapses in China, plus: how the Ottoman Empire bit the dust.


    And why exactly did people look so old and knackered in the past; was everyone on a tough old paper round? Or something else? We don’t have the answers, but if you have theory, do send it on: hello@ohwhatatime.com
