Excellent history and great storytelling.
Description
Hosted by Michael Wilson-Park, Scottish History Out Of Order is a Scottish history podcast with a difference. It realises that Scotland is more than angry clansmen, kilts, bagpipes and shortbread. These are short, intimate portrayals of moments in history, and the stories it tells are people’s stories.
