  • Résumé

  • The things we take for granted in today's world are typically the result of one lucky break, one person’s point of clarity that managed to rise above the efforts of others. However, it is those who have fallen at the last hurdle, via back luck or ignorance, which A Brief History of Failure celebrates. And this group is legion. From the earliest days of civilisation to the political turmoil of modern politics, this podcast shines a light on those who fall into the classification of losers. Research on the world's silver and bronze medalists has been painstakingly conducted to produce this definitive, groundbreaking broadcast.

    Science and Stamps. At beginning of the 19th century, science was all the rage but the ability to confirm the simplest of things such as the mass of Planet Earth or concoct a rudimentary chemical fertiliser seemed beyond the wit of most cretins.
