Summary

It's the ultimate question, and if I cannot answer it there's not much point in going any further. If you, like me, have ever been confronted with the idea that history, the study or pursuit of it, is somehow not worthwhile, then this episode is for you. It's my defence, my apology and my declaration in total favour of history, and it's a determined reminder that WDF is WHERE HISTORY THRIVES! So I hope you'll give it a listen and see for yourself that history is both immensely worthwhile and thoroughly rewarding. Thanksss!Remember also history friends, to make sure that you BEFIT!
