Then, dive into a fascinating story from The History Listen.
More than three decades ago, twin sisters Pam and Wendy Valentine discovered a startling truth about their father.
Looking through his World War I service records, they stumbled upon something that indicated he had a previous family.
"My first reaction was surprise, and then shock, and then you start asking all the questions," Pam says. "Why didn't we know?"
As they followed paper trails to uncover their father's hidden past, they ended up discovering a lot about him — along with a very different man who was also named Harry Valentine.
To hear the whole story, catch up on this episode of The History Listen.
Then catch up on Late Night Live's interview with Elinor Cleghorn, a feminist cultural historian who writes about medical misogyny — from the 'wandering wombs' of Ancient Greece to the female 'hysteric'.
Plus, what's the story behind the European fountains of little boys peeing? Blueprint for Living investigates.
Until next time, Rosie Ryan, digital editor
