I’m so excited to share a sneak peek of what’s coming up this season. This time, we’re really stretching the boundaries, exploring moments in history that changed the way people think, create, and challenge the world around them. You’ll hear threads running through art, literature, science, film, and those ever-present debates about whose stories get told. Some moments might feel far away, but others are surprisingly close and totally relevant today.This season, I’ll be joined by fascinating guests like Professor Dominic Tweddle, an acclaimed archaeologist and former Director General of the National Museum of the Royal Navy for a critical look at the 45th anniversary of Raiders of the Lost Ark, why he has serious issues with it, and what it gets completely wrong about the field. And that's just one highlight! Heritage Counsel and fellow podcaster Clarissa Levi will also be joining to discuss the cultural impact of possessions, inheritance, and how our obsession with collecting really kicked off during the Industrial Revolution.Plus, this season isn’t just about what you hear in your podcast feed. We’re launching a History FFS Substack for deeper dives, newsletters, and a space for all of us to keep the conversation going. I’ll be sharing even more creative content and connections across our social platforms, so if you haven’t followed us yet, now's the perfect time to jump in.Catch up on season 1 if you haven’t already, and buckle up for an even more ambitious second season. We’re just getting started.About Sarah Dowd: I’m Sarah Dowd - writer, speaker, heritage and arts consultant, producer, and all-around nerd - here to share the stories of our past that make us laugh, gasp, and mutter: It’s History… For F***k’s Sake.For 25+ years I’ve created immersive, inclusive experiences that bring history alive, from rallying Second World War convoys through London to staging performances between Pearly Kings and Gen Z creatives.
