Who am I?

I'm Bill, co-creator of "When One Thing Leads To Another," a podcast that takes you down the great internet rabbit hole of trivia to discover a treasure trove of fascinating and curious facts. Like many people, I get lost down the seemingly unending internet rabbit hole all the time. I love how you can find something out about one thing which then leads you to a totally different subject and before you know it, you've ended up somewhere completely unrelated to where you started.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

Each episode of When One Thing Leads To Another starts with an interesting fact about a certain subject which invariably leads to another, and before you know it we are freewheeling through lots of different topics, before ending up in a completely different place to where we started. Hosted by Helen and Bill Rich from the UK.

What is my podcast playlist about?

My playlist contains my favourite fact-based/trivia podcasts that I listen to and enjoy regularly. They are all as entertaining as they are informative and I highly recommend them.

2. You're Dead to Me

Why this podcast?

The subject of History never interested me when I was a kid at school because it was presented in such a boring way. I wish this podcast had been around back then. Perhaps I'd have got much better exam results, because I've learned an awful lot thanks to this very entertaining podcast which explores all sorts of historical people and events.
