Take a walk on the very wild side in 18th century London with teenage "Lad About Town," William Hickey. There's sex, booze, fighting and disrespecting of elders - what's the youth of yesterday coming to? It’s a nostalgic rose-tinted saunter through the taverns and brothels of Georgian England with a young man who would become famous for his diaries and memoirs chronicling scandal, political intrigue, court life and overseas travel during a vibrant age. But in 1768 he's just a horny teenager.
Is stealing a rowing boat morally unacceptable?
Which was the most violent pub in London - possibly?
What do you do when caught in bed with another man's mistress?
Should you ever drink anything described as "..a villainous compound of filth?"
All these and many more questions will be answered in episode 38 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - The podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.
