  • #88 Space (Part 2)
    Jan 21 2025

    Space: the final frontier and indeed, the subject of this week’s episode. We’ll have early astronomy, we’ll take a trip to the moon and we’ll ask the fundamental question: are we alone in the universe and has anyone from another civilisation visited us on earth? (Outside of that one particular episode of Beadle’s About in the 80s).


    Elsewhere, we’ll be discussing the loneliest human in history and why leech-based healthcare was so big for so long. If you’ve got anything else to contribute, here’s where you need to send it: hello@ohwhatatime.com

  • #87 Milk (Part 2)
    Jan 14 2025

    This is Part 2! For Part 1, check the feed!


    Oh What A Time! is back for 2025 and this week we’ve got an episode we’ve been promising (and threatening) for a while: milk! Whatever happened to milk bars? What’s the history behind milk alternatives? Plus, we’ve also got lots on the humble milk float.


    And all this chat of milk bars got us thinking: has there been a greater loss to the high street than Wimpy? (And after a quick google, a new question: who even knew Wimpy is thriving?!). If you’ve got anything to add, you can email: hello@ohwhatatime.com.
