What if a tiny twist in history could lead to a world where World War VII has given rise to the Ameri-Mexicanadian enclave? Join us on a wild journey through the captivating genre of alternate history, where we explore the "what ifs" that tickle our imagination and keep us up at night. We kick off with some playful banter about how minor changes could create wildly different realities, and how this fascination has woven its way into geek culture classics like "The Sixth Sense" and alternate space race scenarios.Imagine Operation Valkyrie succeeding or Heisenberg actually sabotaging the Nazi atomic bomb efforts. We dive into pivotal moments during World War II, examining how slight alterations could have redefined global events. Our conversation takes intriguing twists, comparing the Nazis' infamous deeds to those of colonial powers and pondering why World War II is often deemed a uniquely just war. We also touch on conspiracy theories and their influence on alternate history narratives, referencing works like "The Man in the High Castle" and other speculative fiction.Celebrating the authors who have shaped this genre, we put the spotlight on Philip K. Dick and Harry Turtledove, comparing their unique storytelling approaches. We explore Turtledove's significant contributions, such as his Southern Victory and World War series, and even indulge in some geeky banter about video games like "Fallout" and "Wolfenstein." Our quirky reminders about listener ratings and local poll magazines add a fun twist to our conversation, making this episode a delightful mix of insightful commentary and lighthearted fun for every history buff and geek culture enthusiast.

Welcome history friends, as we launch into a little sideshow I cooked up for you all. This is the first in a chunky 2-parter series on alternative history, where we build a different world in the style you're used to, having asked the question - what would have happened if Gavrilo Princip missed, rather than actually successfully assassinated the Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand? Using all I've gathered in my years studying the First World War and the July Crisis in particular, I give you my answer, so I hope you enjoy it! Over the course of the episode we will look at several threads, such as the change in Serbian government and increasing tensions provoking reactionary policies across the Balkans, it remained to be seen whether the European alliance system would save the peace or help destroy it.

Here we conclude this incredible and early podcast Christmas present, which is 2/3 alternative history and 1/3 a breakdown of whether I believe this makes sense and why I went with what I did. How plausible was it all? You decide. This could be a very fun topic to have a number of debates on, but here we look at the opening phases of the war and what went right/wrong for each side. Irish troubles? Of course they are ever present! I hope you've enjoyed a different path instead of the dire one we got in 1914. Would the world be a better place had Princip missed? That's probably a story for another day, but for now we examine how the Entente came to collapse, and what this meant for the thoroughly victorious allies...Support and get in touch->Visit the homeland for this new project!->Become a delegate and play the Delegation Game for just $6 a month!->Support the podcast financially and access ad free episodes with transcripts from just $2 a month! ->Follow WDF on Twitter! ->Join the Facebook group!->Subscribe on iTunes!

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the guys are back to introduce the next film, "Naz and Maalik." The 2015 indie film about two young Black Muslim twenty somethings living in NYC trying to balance their sexuality and love for each other in a post-9/11 world. The random topic this week is all about the two alternative Black history television shows that have been announced and our thoughts. Conversations on censoring art, and battling group think inside our own community.
