30. Legacy

From Wondery and Goalhanger Podcasts, Afua Hirsch and Peter Frankopan tell the wild stories of some of the most extraordinary men and women ever to have lived and ask whether they have the rep they deserve. Should Nina Simone's role in the civil rights movement be more celebrated than it is? When you find out what Picasso got up to in his studio, can you still admire his art? Was Napoleon a hero or a tyrant - or both? (And, while we're at it, was he even short?) Legacy is the show that looks at big lives from the perspective of now and doesn't always like what it sees.
