Stuck in a rut? Scared of change? Stressed about the world? Anxious for yourself and your loved ones? Know what, more than 400 years ago everyone felt the same way only without the comfort of light bulbs, central heating and sticky toffee pudding. William Shakespeare wrote about it all - and offered many answers to all kinds of modern questions such as what can we do to conquer our fears, how do we find true love and what does it mean to be human? He also asked: to be or not to be? We're still working on that one. My name's Dave Cohen - comedian, author and Horrible Histories lyric writer turned Shakespeare fanboy and I'm here to tell you that there are only two ways to deal with life's problems - the hard way or the Bard way.

  • My Country Right And Wrong
    Mar 24 2026
    "This England never did nor never shall Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror, But when it first did help to wound itself." As a teenager in the 1970s battling racism I'd always thought of Shakespeare as the embodiment of English nationalism. In this delightful episode Michael Dobson, head of the Shakespeare Institute at Stratford-upon-Avon, explains why I couldn't have been more wrong.
