History remembers the famous — but what about everyone else?


The Obscure is a relaxed and often funny podcast that shines a light on historical figures whose contributions were vital, fascinating, or quietly revolutionary, yet largely unrecognised. Hosted by Daniel Darkens and Nina Bickerton, it’s a podcast for curious minds who enjoy learning, laughing, and looking at history sideways.

    Join Daniel Darkens and Nina Bickerton for another episode of The Obscure as they take you through the life and achievements of John Scott Haldane.

    Each future episode will pluck another interesting character out of the obscure and take them into the limelight.

    JS Haldane's is a story of remarkable achievwement in the area of safety and welfare, from coal miners to mountaineers, from deep sea divers to soldiers in the first world war trenches.

    We relied heavily on the excellent biography:

    Suffer and Survive by Martin Goodman (published 2007)

    Join Daniel Darkens and Nina Bickerton as they take you through the life and adventures of Maurice Wilson in this first ever episode of The Obscure podcast.

    Every episode will pluck another interesting character out of the obscure and into the limelight.

    Maurice's is a tragic tale, but includes incredible bravery and ambition. Most of the information for the episode is taken from his two biographies:

    I'll Climb Mount Everest Alone by Dennis Roberts (published 1957)

    The Moth and the Mountatin by Ed Caesar (published 2020)

    both are highly recommended for an even deeper dive.
