In Conversation with Greg Jenner
Join us for an unforgettable evening with the brilliant and wildly entertaining historian Greg Jenner, in conversation with acclaimed author and journalist Michelle Rawlins.
Greg is not your average historian—he’s a master of blending pop culture, comedy, and historical insight to make the past come alive. As the creator and host of BBC Radio 4’s smash-hit podcast You’re Dead to Me, Greg has captivated millions with his unique ability to pair expert historians with top comedians to explore the weird, wonderful, and wildly unexpected corners of global history. With over 90 million downloads and a loyal Saturday morning audience on BBC Radio 4, it’s no wonder the show is a flagship for BBC Sounds.
You might also know Greg from his work as the historical consultant behind the hilarious and award-winning Horrible Histories TV series and its BAFTA-nominated film Rotten Romans. His knack for making history fun and accessible has earned him fans of all ages.
Greg is also the author and narrator of six fantastic books, including the bestselling A Million Years In A Day, Dead Famous, and Ask A Historian, plus his riotously fun children’s series Totally Chaotic History!—where Ancient Egypt gets unruly, the Stone Age runs wild, and Roman Britain gets rowdy!
Whether you're a history buff, a podcast addict, or just love a good laugh, this evening promises to be insightful, hilarious, and full of surprises.
