The student loan scandal - interest on loans is more than the repayments for many on Plan 2 so debt grows trapping them with extra 9% income tax for up to 30 years bit.ly/3NcgO8o £15.2 billion interest added to student loans last year, only £5 billion repaid.

Today it's five years since the launch of @TheRestHistory. After hundreds of episodes, tours of the US and Australia, West End shows and concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, making the show is more fun than ever.
Thank you to our wonderful team, and to all our listeners!

@MartinSLewis I graduated from Lancaster University with a degree in History in 2006. I loved doing my degree, some of the best years of my life & fed an enduring love of the subject. Took transferable skills into a varied career but for me, studying was its own reward. 100% worth it.

Did our weekly shop on Saturday and it was over £100. No alcohol, no luxuries, just enough food to make meals and feed a family of four for seven days. I've always done meal plans, batch cooking and using budget recipes but at the moment it seems impossible to get the cost down.

£98!!! At Aldi no booze included & only meat is sliced for a sandwich & a chicken to roast 6 months ago this would have been £70! Cost of living is just ridiculous 🤬

Our epic FIRST WORLD WAR series reaches its awful climax today, as @dcsandbrook brings his incomparable mastery of narrative & Polish place names to bear on the siege of Przemyśl - THE HABSBURG THERMOPYLAE.
A jaw-dropping story I knew nothing about...

Gone Medieval had finally bitten the bullet - or the arrow head. We’re tackling Edward I. Longshanks, Hammer of the Scots, conqueror, warrior, crusader, lawmaker. He’s pretty complicated.
Fortunately, Dr Andrew Spencer is on hand.

The beautifully secluded and atmospheric chapel of the Holy Trinity in Old Bewick.
It seems to have been founded by Matilda, the wife of Henry I, and daughter of Malcolm III of Scotland (as in ‘Macbeth’), in memory of her father, who’d been ambushed and slain outside Alnwick.

Remember when picking up “a few bits” at the supermarket didn’t cost £54?

As many have pointed out before now, it’s historians that society is going to come crying to when we tire of everything we thought we knew about our past being corrupted by AI slop

The idea that ‘historian’ is one of the jobs most at risk from AI is darkly funny; after all, in a world dominated by often-wrong AI what use could *a set of people with specialist training in chasing down and verifying the sources of information* possibly be?

AI is rubbish at history. It just makes stuff up. I gave ChatGBT a go yesterday, thinking it might boost my productivity, and it fed me a completely bogus quote by Pindar. But making sure it WAS bogus took time - so far from boosting my productivity, AI had actively sabotaged it.

I will take Tom's word for it, as I still refuse to use it. I can't do anything about this stuff, but I won't participate in it.
