This week we’re turning to history to find people unfortunate enough to have had a really daft death. We’ve got sixteenth-century Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, Alexander Pushkin’s totally avoidable end and we’ll hear all about the sad but, in some respects, happy demise of Greek philosopher Chrysippus. 


Plus we’re chatting Stonehenge this week. Got a crackpot theory on what it is? Got a good fact? Ever been there for a rave? Well, we’re desperate to hear more: hello@ohwhatatime.com
