A history show of the amateur armchair persuasion whose interest is derived from the Napoleonic idea that history is a myth agreed upon.  Ask Tacitus, the Roman Senator and Historian. In fact ask a policeman.  BTHP will be taking a look at history primarily from a British perspective but not to the exclusion of other great historical stories.

This is, hands down the absolute best, most informative and entertaining podcast on the net. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO START MAKING MORE PODCASTS??????

15 Binge Thinking History: The Reign of Terror to Trafalgar

Henry VIII takes exception to The Vatican not allowing him to get divorced so does what any self respecting supreme leader would do, he creates his own Church.  This is probably the most seismic event in European history and changed just about everything including the relationship between the King, the Church and the State.  The episode runs right up the Charles I and the roots of the English Civil War.

02 Binge Thinking History Podcast: A Tale of two Churches

Charles I comes up against Oliver Cromwell which kicks off the English Civil War and is subsequently beheaded.  The English though still liked the idea of monarch, just not the despotic ones, and after Cromwell’s death the Crown is restored.  All is not well though and eventually a Dutchman is invited to become King.

03 Binge Thinking History: Civil War and Glorious Revolution

The post war years are often seen as a golden age for the British aircraft industry but Government bungling and a fragmented industry meant this wasn't going to last for very long. Enjoy Tony

22 Binge Thinking History: The Decline and Fall of the British Aircraft Industry

In this episode we follow the events from the time of William and Mary right up the signing of the US Constitution.  Along the way we see the creation of the United Kingdom and that the British find that they will probably need to look abroad if they want to maintain the Monarchy. I've also added BTHP to BritCaster.com

04 Binge Thinking History: 1776 and all that!

Back after almost a year with the first part of a two series on the South Sea BUbble. War maybe Hell but it’s also very, expensive and like every other country in 1700 England was deeply in debt.  Enter the South Sea Company and a story that mixes avarice, corruption, deceit, international intrigue and vast sums of other peoples money. Enjoy! Tony

The First World War marks the end the supremacy of the battleship and the beginning of the end for Pax Britannia.  The decline of Royal Navy mirrors the that of the British Empire for obvious reasons and the it's future is unclear.

Finally a new episode and sorry for the long hiatus.  I'm going to try and make sure that doesn't happen again. This episode covers what happened during the mid 18th Century and the all important Seven Years War, seen by many as the real 'First World War'.  It also saw Britain become the dominant European power without actually having an army on the continent and the continuation of the century long on/off conflict with France.  The road to Waterloo and Trafalgar was set. Hope you enjoy Tony
