The Mayflower ...... today on the wireless

"Greg Jenner is joined by historian Dr Misha Ewen and comedian Alex Edelman to take a trip back in time and across the Atlantic with the passengers of The Mayflower.


They ask all the most pertinent questions. 

What would you pack for a journey to a new world? 

What’s a great name for a baby born at sea? 

And just why is a journey that was objectively a gigantic failure held in such high regard in American culture?
