  • Hi everybody, I hope you're all keeping safe and well and 99% indoors.

  • I just wanted to let you know about a very exciting guest we've got on the show today.

  • It is historian Greg Jenner, you'll probably recognize him from his previous appearances on this show,

  • or from his own podcast Your Dead to Me, which is sort of a comedy history podcast.

  • He gets fantastic guests on, it's really a great listen.

  • And he also has a book out at the moment.

  • He has a brand new book called Dead Famous.

  • It's about the history of celebrity.

  • I've already started reading it, it's a rollicking good read.

  • It covers a whole bunch of historic celebrities from the 1700s onwards.

  • And if you thought that throwing your underwear at celebrities was a modern phenomenon,

  • then don't you worry, it's got historic precedent.

  • You can always use that as your defense.

  • You'll find out that and lots more stuff in his book.

  • So that's Dead Famous.

  • Go order the book now, Dead Famous by Greg Jenner.

  • And spoiler alert, you're about to hear about one of those historic celebrities in the upcoming podcast.

  • So without further ado, let's get on with the show.

  • Hello, and welcome to another Working from Home episode of No Such Thing as a Fish,

  • a weekly podcast coming to you from our respective solitary pods.
