BBC Sounds Music Radio podcasts.
Hello, and welcome to youo Dead to me, the Radio 4 comedy podcast that takes history seriously.
My name is Greg Jenner.
I'm a public historian, author and broadcaster.
And today we are sailing all the way back to Bronze Age Crete to learn about the ancient Minoan civilization.
And to help us mine truth from Minotaur myth, we have two very special guests in History Corner.
He's a lecturer at Oxford University's Department for Continuing Education.
His research includes classical mythology and history.
He's the author of several books, including Mythologica, a fantastic illustrated children's encyclopedia of Greek myths.
It's very lovely.
And you'll remember him from our episode All About Atlantis.
It's not real.
It's Dr.
Steve Kershaw.
Welcome back, Steve.
Thank you very much.
I'm delighted to be back.
And in Comedy Corner, she's a comedian, broadcaster and author.
You will know her from Radio 4's Shortcuts, eight out of 10 cats.
Maybe you've read her books, including the recent short story collection, because I don't know what you mean and what you don't.
