371. The First British Indians: Last Sikh In Lahore (Ep 3)

This episode is brought to you by Attio, the CRM of the new way of going to the market. On our show we trace how people, power and ideas move through history. Often what changes the story is not ambition alone, but the system behind it. For businesses, a CRM has long kept a simple record. Who you spoke to, what was said,

and where things stood. ATIO is the only agent native CRM built for teams and AI agents to work together across every customer relationship. Revenue teams now have signals coming from everywhere, but signals only matter if you can act on them. You can ask ATIO to prepare a meeting, draft outreach, or surface the next step. So your team can move with speed, scale and quality without losing the judgment that good customer relationships require.

So this is now part three of the four we're going to be doing on the daughters of the last Maharaja of the Punjab. We've met Sophia, now famous from Anita's fantastic book, Unknown Ten Years Ago, now one of the most celebrated figures of British Indian history, it's fair to say, I think. We met last week the far less well-known and far more private Catherine with her friend living in Prussia and fleeing away from England.
