Chief Petty Officer is a sharp, visually driven comedy lecture about history’s smallest grudges and the moment they go too far. From imperial overreach to pop culture beefs, stand-up comedian and consumer champion Vix Leyton dissects petty acts that accidentally changed the world, plotting them on an ambitious scientific framework to determine who stopped at the peak – and who disastrously doubled down. Smart, structured nonsense with bite, insight and a whole lot of laughs. Vix is serious about pettiness, and she has a lot of views to share.

Perfect for a BBC Radio 4-leaning brain, history lovers, anyone who has ever briefly considered placing Lego in someone’s shoe, and 50 Cent - he'll love this.
