Episode9-Raging Militant, Seething Social Democrats and The Struggle For The Heart Of Labour In The 80's
In this episode, Ben Kearns is joined by Alternate Historian Ewan Hodson, who lends his opinion to alternate scenarios involving the UK Labour party from the late 70's to the mid 90's. In particular, Ben and Ewan attempt to answer what would have happened if Callaghan had called a 78 election and won, the idea of a foot-free early 80's and Kinnock actually becoming Prime Minister in 1992.
In addition, in part3, Ben talks to Alex Wallace and accompanying authors, who until recently were working ridiculous hours on their AH anthology, AlloAmericana: Myths and legends from other Americas. Prepare for the hard sell-but it'll totally be worth it!
