Description
Robinsons Bookshop Welcome Riley Knight to our glen store, the the release of his hilarious new book 'Most Interesting People You've Never Heard Of'
Untold true stories of fascinating lives throughout history to the modern day from the host of the popular Half-Arsed History podcast. With a BA in History and Political Science, 7.5 years and 650+ episodes of his podcast, Riley’s new book The Most Interesting People You’ve Never Heard Of shines a light on fascinating figures from history whose stories don’t deserve their current obscurity.
Riley Knight is the host of Half-Arsed History, a weekly podcast highlighting absurd and entertaining stories from history. Born in Melbourne, Victoria, Riley became a primary school teacher after finishing his mostly-useless Arts degree, and began Half-Arsed History as a hobby while teaching grade three. The podcast has only grown since then, with millions of downloads across the world, live shows across Australia, and now a growing series of books.
After spending almost a decade living in Europe, Riley now lives on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, and consistently produces new episodes of Half-Arsed History every week (except when the cricket is on, at which time he produces them inconsistently). He enjoys reading, long-distance running, and collecting little historical artefacts.
