The Alps

In "The Alps," Stephen O'Shea invites listeners on an exploration of the majestic mountain range that stretches across seven countries, delving into its rich history and cultural significance. Covering events from Hannibal's legendary crossing to the influences of famous works like "Frankenstein" and "Heidi," O'Shea also visits notable historical sites, including locations tied to World War I and Arthur Conan Doyle. Along his journey, he meets the diverse individuals—watchmakers, miners, and yodelers—who shape the modern Alpine experience.
