About this listen

TikTok sensation Katie Kennedy, aka @TheHistoryGossip, serves up a delicious blend of fascinating, witty and salacious history tea for every day of the year.

With infectious wit and historical insight, The History Gossip brings you the mad, bad and dangerous tales from around the world. With entries for every day of the year, this is history … but not as you know it.

Equal parts fascinating and funny, Katie's unique brand of humour takes listeners on a romp through the history books and answers burning questions such as ‘Was Anne of Cleves a minger', ‘Did Mary Shelley lose her V-card on her mother's grave' and ‘Did George IV eat himself to death' and more.

What better way to start your day than find out what other people have done before? The History Gossip reveals the funny, strange and utterly juicy tidbits throughout world history, each with a modern twist of pop culture references and contemporary slang.

This is the ultimate blend of ‘On this day' history education and humour, making it the perfect gift or self-purchase for history lovers.

I listened to the whole book on a long car journey and it had me laughing out loud a few times. Just great fun. Would recommend.

I kept seeing reels on Facebook of this person and I loved their approach to history. So when I discovered there was a book and she was narrating it I had to download it.

The down to earth approach and humour makes some of the dry topics engaging and I laughed almost continuously. I cannot recommend this enough.

Hilarious
