Grigori Rasputin, everyone's favourite irresistible, indestructible, mad monk is having a night on the town in Moscow.
He's a controversial, mystic, healer and holy man but the Romanov family love him so he can get up to all sorts of rude, vodka fuelled high jinks.

  • Why did Tsarina Alexandra like him so much?
  • Why did Tsar Nicholas II dislike him?
  • Was Rasputin responsible for the Russian Revolution?
  • Just how big was it ?? ( you know what I’m talking about)

It’s a possibly exaggerated tale that stretches from Siberia to St Petersburg and explores some of the myths surrounding one of Russian history's most infamous characters and his mysterious assassination.

And it's all in episode 43 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - The podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.

Thanks for listening. Stay Roguish!
