About

The Retrospectors is a daily podcast discovering the curious moments that happened on this day in history, as told by some of the greatest minds ever to grace the audiosphere probably.

Launched in May 2021, the show throws together podcats pioneer Olly Mann (Answer Me This!, The Modern Mann) with journalists Arion McNichol and Rebecca Messina, who all met on the award-winning current affairs show The Week Unwrapped.

Together with producers Matt Hill (Happy Place, Page 94 The Private Eye Podcast) and Emma Corsham (Reasons To Be Cheerful, Pappy’s Flatshare)… they are The Retrospectors.
