  • When Austin Powers tried to steal the crown jewels

    When Austin Powers tried to steal the crown jewels
    May 3 2022

    Hazel tells Shane all about the extraordinary life of Colonel Thomas Blood, the infamous con-artist who after botching a kidnapping took the next logical step: attempted the only known heist of the Crown Jewels. Cue lots of innuendos.


    Also, do all populist leaders have fat heads? And did Boy George cause the Great Fire of London?

    Apr 26 2022

    Welcome to our very first guest episode of the pod! 


    Shane and Hazel welcome comedian and everyone’s favourite one-man Indie band Michael Fry to the show! Having worked at Ancestry in a previous life, he’s here to give us a history lesson about his own family tree, including one particularly odd ancestor. Plus, Michael reveals some of the weirdest requests he received and how he hopes history will remember him. 


    We’re going to speak to many more familiar Irish faces! Who should we have on next time? Drop an email to hello@nothistorians.com!
