Sitting for a change
What an incredible deep dive into what we all do without thinking! Mr Jenner brings all the WOW of Horrible Histories to this fantastic podcast.
I am really taken by this thoroughly enjoying project. It's all great opportunity for sitting for a change.

brilliant!
surprisingly interesting, wide-ranging, thoroughly researched, and encompassing a fascinating amount of history from different people including wheelchair users, parliamentarians, Irish freedom-fighters and people of colour, to name but a few

Surprising and satisfying history
A really interesting social history, which looks at all the situations in which sitting has a social implication - not a promising subject, you'd think. But Jenner uses this basic human activity to look at power relations, industrial environments and travel, amongst other things. Great stuff.

Really interesting!
I was surprised and sceptical that you could make a while Series, but gave it a go because of how much I've enjoyed Greg Jenner's other books and podcasts. Glad I did - it was really interesting and quite funny in places. Now I'm wondering if there could even be another series 😁
Thanks Greg (if you ever read this)!

Sit down with Greg for a bit? Dont mind if I do
Somehow Greg Jenner can make any subject interesting, I could literally listen to him narrating his breakfast and it would still probably be podcast/audiobook worthy.
