A woman is pulled over on a Texas highway with a newborn baby in her lap, covered in blood, claiming she has just given birth behind the wheel. But when Taylor Parker reaches hospital, the story begins to fall apart.  In part one of the Taylor Parker case, we follow the strange and escalating trail of fake pregnancy claims, inheritance lies, family sabotage, burner phones, alleged threats, arson, a multimillion-dollar ranch deal and a relationship with Wade Gryphon that becomes tangled in one impossible story after another. At the centre of it all is Parker's need to keep the people around her believing that her fantasy life is real.  But while Taylor and Wade are counting down to the arrival of “Clancy Gale”, another young woman, Reagan Hancock, is preparing for her own baby. And by the time the truth emerges, this true crime story has already crossed into something far darker: a foetal abduction case that no one around Parker saw coming.  Topics Included  Taylor Parker and the fake pregnancy claim Wade Gryphon and the relationship at the centre of the story The alleged Blackburn Syrup inheritance Shona Prior and the mother-daughter sabotage narrative Fake documents, messages, phone calls and threats The Pecan Point ranch deal Pregnancy doubts, ultrasounds and the gender reveal Reagan Hancock and her connection to Taylor The roadside birth claim on Highway 82 The discovery that the baby was not Taylor's Resources and Further Reading  Parker v.

D-Day is one of the most studied military operations in history. But what if the fate of the Allied invasion hinged not on generals, tanks, or landing craft—but on a weather forecast?In this episode of Reckoning with Jason Herbert, Jason is joined by historians Todd Arrington and Dr. Colin Colbourn to discuss the new film Pressure, starring Brendan Fraser as General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Andrew Scott as meteorologist James Stagg. Together they explore the extraordinary decisions made in the days before June 6, 1944, when uncertain forecasts, competing personalities, and the weight of history converged on a single choice: whether to launch Operation Overlord.The conversation examines Eisenhower's leadership under immense strain, the often-overlooked role of meteorology in World War II, the disastrous rehearsal known as Exercise Tiger, and the complex relationships among Allied commanders such as Bernard Montgomery. Along the way, the panel weighs in on the film's historical accuracy, its performances, and why Pressure succeeds by telling a familiar story from an entirely unexpected angle. If you've ever wondered how close D-Day came to being postponed—or how something as unpredictable as the weather helped shape the course of the twentieth century—this is an episode you won't want to miss.Topics discussed: The true story behind the film Pressure Dwight Eisenhower and the burden of command  James Stagg and the weather forecast that changed history  Exercise Tiger and the hidden costs of preparing for D-Day  Bernard Montgomery, Allied politics, and coalition warfare  The role of weather in World War II operations  Historical accuracy versus cinematic storytelling  Brendan Fraser, Andrew Scott, and Damian Lewis on screen

Send us Fan MailOur Season Finale! Behind the neon glow of Ogden's infamous 25th Street stood one of the city's most notorious figures: Rose Davies. To some, she was a successful madam who built an underground empire in the shadows of postwar Utah. To others, she represented a darker reality hidden behind the myths of vice, freedom, and easy money. In this episode, we explore the story of Rose Davies and the Rose Rooms, separating legend from history while examining what life may have truly looked like for the women who worked there. From police raids and political controversies to the everyday realities of prostitution in mid-century Ogden, this story is about power, exploitation, survival, and the uncomfortable truths often left out of the romanticized versions of the past. Join us as we step through the doors of the Rose Rooms and into one of the most controversial chapters in Ogden's history. Ogden, Ogden Utah, Junction City, True Crime, Historic 25th Street, Two-Bit Street, Ogden True Crime, Utah True Crime, Police, Police Podcast, Tales of Policing, History, History Podcast

Marilyn Monroe is one of the most recognisable women who has ever lived, but the version the world fell in love with was, in many ways, built in a studio.  Today, we trace how Marilyn Monroe emerged from Norma Jean's unstable and abusive childhood to become the Hollywood icon everyone thinks they know. We follow her early modelling career, her studio-made voice, and the blonde bombshell image she spent years trying to outrun. But there is a darker side to this story too: the marriages, the power struggles, and the myths that shaped her final years. Marilyn Monroe's story is what happens when public fantasy grows far bigger than the woman forced to carry it.  Topics Include  norma jean's childhood, foster homes, and abuse how marilyn monroe was made by hollywood the breathy voice, the bombshell image, and studio control joe dimaggio, arthur miller, and public fascination jfk, conspiracy theories, and the final unraveling Resources and Further Reading  Marilyn Monroe - Encyclopaedia Britannica Marilyn Monroe - FBI Vault Marilyn's Method - The Criterion Collection Host & Show Info  Hosts: Kyle Risi & Adam Cox Intro Music:Alice in dark Wonderland Community & Calls to Action  Review & follow on: Spotify & Apple Podcasts Instagram: @theCompendiumPodcast Website: TheCompendiumPodcast.com Support us: Sign up to Patreon We're Hiring: Find the perfect job at the circus Share this episode with a friend! If you enjoyed it, tag us on social media and let us know your favourite takeaway.

The Zodiac Killer did not just murder people; he turned the case into a public game of fear, symbols, letters and unsolved ciphers. This episode follows the Zodiac Killer from the first lovers' lane attacks in Northern California to the murder of taxi driver Paul Stine, tracing how a string of true crime cases became one of America's most enduring unsolved mysteries. We unpack the Zodiac Killer murders, the taunting newspaper letters, the coded messages, the Z340 cipher, surviving witnesses, and the strange public performance that made the case feel bigger than the crimes themselves. We also look at the suspects and theories that have kept the case alive, including Arthur Leigh Allen, Lake Berryessa, Lake Herman Road, Blue Rock Springs, and the haunting question of why the Zodiac Killer was never caught.

Historian and food studies scholar Jeffrey Pilcher joins Reckoning with Jason Herbert to explore the surprising global history of beer and how one of humanity's oldest drinks became a worldwide commodity. Drawing from his new book Hopped Up: How Travel, Trade, and Taste Made Beer a Global Commodity, Pilcher traces beer's journey from ancient brewing traditions to modern craft breweries, revealing how beer shaped—and was shaped by—capitalism, industrialization, migration, empire, advertising, and working-class culture.In this episode, we discuss the origins of brewing in the ancient world, the rise of lager and Pilsner in Central Europe, German immigration and American beer culture, the globalization of brands like Heineken and Corona, and the explosion of craft brewing in the United States. Along the way, we dive into Czech beer halls, IPAs, bourbon barrel stouts, the politics of drinking, and why beer has always been about more than what's in the glass.If you love history, food culture, globalization, craft beer, or simply a great conversation about the human need for community and connection, this episode is for you.

"He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power...He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people." In this episode, we unpack Grievances #11, #12, #23, and #24 of the Declaration of Independence and the relationship between Americans and the various types of armed troops in North America, from militias, to British regulars, to the Continental Army. Topics include the following: -the shared British and American tradition of opposing standing armies--because if they are not disbanded after wars, they are used by tyrants to take away the rights of the people -the perception of American colonists that the King had stationed 10,000 soldiers in North America in 1763 precisely so he could enforce his tyrannical policies on them -the various functions of Colonial militias in the 17th and 18th centuries, including war-fighting, civil policing, and preventing slave uprisings -the strained relationships between the Colonial militias and British regulars during the 7 Years' War and Pontiac's Revolt -the role of the Battles of Lexington and Concord in forcing Congress to create the Continental Army -the political significance of the name the Continental Army, as opposed to the American or Congressional or Colonial Army -the political significance of appointing George Washington, a Southerner and Virginian, as Commander of a mostly Northern militia force -an introduction to Washington's senior officers: Artemas Ward, Israel Putnam, and Charles Lee -initial British assessments of the strength and effectiveness of the new Continental Army -the importance of the American victory at Fort Ticonderoga in reshaping the war; namely, the capture of British soldiers meant that American rebels would not be summarily executed as seditious traitors but treated with basic PoW protections -a discussion of Grievance #24, that King George has ordered war crimes to be committed against innocent civilians -the tendency on both sides to commit war crimes against the civilian population and efforts by officers on both sides to discipline soldiers who abused the civilians population Dr. Chandler's book can be found here: [War, Patriotism and Identity in Revolutionary North America](https://boydellandbrewer.com/book/war-patriotism-and-identity-in-revolutionary-north-america-9781783274376/?v=0d149b90e739) The cover image is a drawing of an American Soldier in 1778 by Friedrich von Germann (1744–1794), Captain of the Brunswick Regiment Erbprinz. The Brunswick Regiment was not technically Hessian; nevertheless, it formed part of the subsidy regiments (or mercenaries) hired by the British to fight the Americans.

A man checks into the President Hotel under a false name — and Room 1046 becomes a locked-door nightmare. The death of the man known as Roland T. Owen remains one of the strangest true crime stories of 1930s Kansas City. Behind the name was a deeper mystery: Artemis Ogletree, a false identity, a hotel room filled with unanswered questions, and a cast of names that still feel like pieces from a puzzle no one has ever fully solved. This historical true crime episode follows the eerie Room 1046 case through the President Hotel, the Kansas City murder investigation, the mystery letters, and the people connected to the story, including Eugene K. Scott, Mary Soptic, Don Kelso and the elusive “Louise”. Was Room 1046 the scene of a planned hotel murder, a meeting gone wrong, or something even stranger? For listeners drawn to unsolved mysteries, real life mysteries, cold case podcast stories and dark history, this is a chilling look at how one hotel room became a lasting legend. Room 1046 is not just a murder case. It is a strange history of aliases, silence, fear and unanswered questions that still refuses to stay buried. Topics Include The President Hotel in Kansas City in January 1935 Roland T.

Porta, der History-Podcast von volksfreund.de, macht mit dieser Episode einen Ausflug in die Welt des Fußballs, der so viele Menschen schon seit Jahrzehnten begeistert. Vor fast 30 Jahren machten die Spieler von Eintracht Trier ihre Stadt deutschlandweit bekannt. Ein damals mitentscheidender Akteur erinnert sich: Rudi Thömmes.

Seit über 40 Jahren steht Urban Priol schon als Kabarettist auf der Bühne. So langsam sehnt er sich nach seiner Rente, gibt er bei Sarah Bosetti offen zu. Denn auch, wenn er sich seine klare Haltung bewahrt, so hat er sich doch damit abgefunden, mit seiner Satire nicht wirklich etwas bewegen zu können. In dieser Podcast-Folge geht Urban Priol aber voll auf Angriff. “Zorn hält jung”, so sein Credo. Friedrich Merz traut er nach einem Jahr Kanzlerschaft nur so weit, wie er ein Klavier werfen kann. Trotzdem wünschen sich Urban und Sarah, dass Merz noch lange durchhält, denn alle anderen könnten es ja auch nicht besser. Und zumindest nimmt ihm Urban Priol ab, dass Merz nicht mit der AfD zusammenarbeiten will. Beim Thema “Social Media” sind sich die beiden uneinig. Urban Priol ist für eine Klarnamenpflicht, Sarah dagegen. Ihre Begründung: Menschen, die sich öffentlich im Internet äußern, können sich damit in Gefahr bringen. Im persönlichen Teil möchte Urban Priol gerne von Sarah wissen, mit wem sie gerne einen Italo-Western gedreht hätte. Und Sarah findet raus, dass Urban nicht Lehrer geworden wäre, wenn es mit dem Kabarett nicht geklappt hätte - obwohl er auf Lehramt studiert hat.

Jared Shaw returns to the MMA History Podcast for his fourth and most revealing appearance yet, pulling back the curtain on the spectacular rise and sudden collapse of Elite XC. As the promotion's Vice President during its groundbreaking CBS era, Shaw was at the center of the Kimbo Slice versus Seth Petruzelli fight that many still blame for sinking the company overnight. In this unfiltered conversation with Mike Davis and Joey Venti, he sets the record straight on the real reasons behind the fall, the internal power struggles, the fight-fixing rumors, and the fighters who could have built an empire.From the Cyborg debut that stole the show to the Gina Carano era, the frantic final months, and the untold stories of what happened when the lights went out, Shaw delivers raw insight into one of MMA's most controversial chapters and the golden opportunities the sport lost forever.

This week on The UpWords Podcast, we're bringing you something a little different — and we think you're going to love it.We're sharing the first episode of a brand-new podcast series from the Lumen Center and SLBF STUDIO: American Evangelicals, A History Podcast. Hosted by historians John Fea, Dan Hummel, and Maggie Capra, this series takes a thoughtful, deep dive into one of the most talked-about religious movements in American history.In this opening episode, they start with a deceptively simple question: What is an American evangelical? Beginning with the extraordinary story of Nathan Cole, an ordinary Connecticut farmer who rode twelve miles on horseback in 1740 to hear George Whitefield preach, the historians trace the origins of what would become a world-shaping religious movement.LEARN more about the series - https://slbf.org/americanevangelicalspodcastAlong the way, they discuss:The Bebbington Quadrilateral — the four markers historians use to define evangelicalism: conversionism, biblicism, crucicentrism, and activismWhy the "new birth" or born-again experience is so central to evangelical identityGeorge Whitefield's remarkable celebrity and his transatlantic influenceHow evangelicalism was, in its early form, a disruptive and progressive movement challenging established religious authorityThe complex relationship between the First Great Awakening and the American RevolutionIf you've ever felt like the word "evangelical" is confusing, contested, or a little loaded, this conversation brings real historical clarity. This is episode one of a three-part introduction to evangelicalism — with much more to come in the series.SUBSCRIBE to the podcast in your favorite podcast app - https://americanevangelicalsahistorypodcast.buzzsprout.comAnd if this episode resonates, share it with someone who wants a deeper, more nuanced understanding of American evangelical history.Send us Fan MailCONNECT WITH USSubscribe to The UpWords Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts and visit slbf.org/studio to learn more about our work at the intersection of faith, the academy, and the marketplace.This episode was created by the SLBF STUDIO at Upper House.Produced by Daniel Johnson and Dave ConourEdited by Dave Conour

Plus, silver investments gone wrong, back surgery horror stories, and the real reason the UFC never knew what to do with him.This is classic MMA History Podcast gold: raw, hilarious, and packed with never-before-heard stories from one of the most entertaining big men to ever step in the Octagon.0:00 MMA history podcast intro 0:32 Joey Venti's guest introduction0:53 interview start 0:58 plugs/ promotions2:11 women breaking into puppy mill 5:12 losing money on buying silver 6:01 beginnings in MMA 6:52 scammed by Marcello Monteiro 14:05 choosing to train with James Clingerman 17:57 Chris Lytle's unorthodox fight style20:51 refusing to train in the Gi 22:20 Sean McCorkle vs Steve Paulson24:11 picking the Nickname “The Hater”25:09 training with Tom Erickson30:42 training partner Dave Herman 34:16 Sean McCorkle vs Jason Johnson34:35 Sean McCorkle vs Robert Hogan37:27 Sean McCorkle vs Justin Wade38:41 Sean McCorkle vs Jeremy Norton41:48 joining the underground forums 46:29 Sean McCorkle vs James Ferguson46:43 notorious Matt Hughes book review 52:45 taking 2 years off for back surgery53:28 going through a major divorce 56:47 Jason Guida vs Alex Trujillo controversy59:30 Primetime Fighting Championship losing money 1:02:40 confronted by Jason Guida and Alex Trujillo 1:05:35 finding an arch nemesis on the underground1:06:57 terminally ill grandmother promo 1:13:22 interactions with Brett Rogers 1:14:43 thoughts on Bruce Buffer 1:17:49 thoughts on Dominick Cruz1:19:08 Johnathon Ivey's fight résumé1:20:01 Sean McCorkle vs Bobby Favors1:22:08 getting a call from the UFC1:25:41 fighting Mark Hunt in UFC debut1:27:43 submitting Mark Hunt1:29:10 renegotiations with the UFC 1:31:56 having to cut weight for fight 1:34:49 receiving celebrity status after UFC victory1:36:11 Sean McCorkle vs Stephan Struve1:42:13 receiving text from Joe Silva 1:44:22 pay for UFC 3 video game 1:48:27 pay for UFC trading cards 1:50:00 getting released from the UFC 1:50:37 taking steroids during fight career 1:52:24 fat burner medication story 1:57:49 Bob Sapp early peptide knowledge 2:00:11 2nd half of career 2:02:11 interview wrap up 2:03:36 outro/ closing thoughtsFollow the MMA History Team on Instagram: MMA Detective Mike Davis @mikedavis632 Co Host Joey Venti @aj_ventitreRecords Keeper- Andrew Mendoza @ambidexstressSocial Media Manager Andy Campbell @martial_mindset_Thumbnails Julio Macedo @juliosemacentoInstagram https://www.instagram.com/mmahistorypodcast?igsh=aHVweHdncXQycHBy&utm_source=qrSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/3q8KsfqrSQSjkdPLkdtNWb?si=aL3D5Y3aTDi-PQZdweWL8gApple Podcast MMA History PodcastYouTube https://youtube.com/@MMAHistoryPodcast?si=bj1RBXTZ2X82tv_JOutro song: Power - https://tunetank.com/t/2gji/1458-powerMike - The MMA Detective - @mikedavis632 Cash App - $mikedavis1231Venmo - Mike-Davis-63ZELLE: Cutthroatmma@gmail.com / ph#: 773-491-5052 #MMA #UFC #NHB #MixedMartialArts #MMADetective #MikeDavis #MMAHistory #OldSchoolMMA #MMAPodcast #fightpodcast Thank You for your support

MMA Detective Mike Davis and co-host Joey Venti sit down once again with early MMA legend and the original Huntington Beach Bad Boy, David "Tank" Abbott. This is Tank's third appearance on the show, delivering his signature no-holds-barred perspective on the raw, untamed early days of mixed martial arts.In this wide-ranging conversation, Tank addresses viral social media moments including his legendary 600-pound bench press (spotted by former UFC executive David Isaacs) and his story of a young, angry Strickland trying to fight him in a bar, only for Tank to take the kid under his wing for the night. He also shares candid recollections from his UFC run, WCW transition, training with John Marsh, fights against Frank Mir, Kimo Leopoldo, and Wesley "Cabbage" Correira, plus his thoughts on the creation of the light heavyweight division, backstage politics, and the evolution of the sport.Straight from one of MMA's most polarizing and entertaining pioneers, this episode is packed with firsthand history, strong opinions, and stories you won't hear anywhere else. If you want the unfiltered truth about the men who built mixed martial arts, this is essential listening.The MMA History Podcast is dedicated to preserving the sport's rich heritage through in-depth interviews and obsessive research.

Send us a message or question! Episode available on general release on Wednesday 1st April. Episode SummaryIn the final episode of Series 4, Jane and James are joined by historian and former RAF intelligence officer Andrew White to explore a lesser-known aspect of the Second World War air war: the internment of Allied airmen in neutral countries.When aircraft came down in neutral territory, aircrew entered a complex legal and diplomatic grey area — neither prisoners of war nor free to return home. Drawing on Andrew's research and experience, this episode examines how internment worked in practice, how different countries interpreted their obligations, and what life was like for the men caught in between war and neutrality.We explore the legal framework governing internment, the countries involved, the lived experiences of interned airmen, and the moral and political tensions that shaped their treatment. The discussion also touches on escape attempts, repatriation, and the controversial question of whether some airmen may have sought internment deliberately.As Series 4 draws to a close, this episode reflects the podcast's wider aim — to go beyond operations and aircraft, and to uncover the human stories and complexities behind the bombing war.What We Cover What internment meant under international law during WWII  Which nations interned British and Allied airmen  Living conditions and day-to-day experiences of interned crews  How politics and neutrality influenced treatment  Changes in policy as the war progressed  Repatriation and the duration of internment  Escape attempts from neutral countries  The controversial idea of “choosing” internment About Our GuestAndrew White is a retired RAF intelligence officer (Wing Commander) who served from 1985 to 2011, including operational tours in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, and Iraq.He now works as a battlefield guide and military historian, and is the author of three published biographies of airmen from the First and Second World Wars.Series 4This episode marks the final instalment of Series 4 of Never Mind the Dambusters.Across the series, we've explored a wide range of topics, including: RAF Bomber Command operations and strategy  The Short Stirling and De Havilland Mosquito  The Peenemünde raids and V-weapons programme  The USAAF bombing campaign over Schweinfurt  Bomb disposal in Hamburg  Cold War bombers and evolving air strategy Thank you to all our guests — and to everyone who has listened, supported, and joined the conversation along the way. Support the showPlease subscribe to Never Mind The Dambusters wherever you get your podcasts.

Jake "Irish" O'Brien joins the MMA History Podcast for episode 322. The former Purdue wrestler and UFC veteran recounts his journey from dominating Indiana high school wrestling as a three-time state champion to becoming one of the most promising young heavyweights in early UFC history.O'Brien shares rare stories from the Midwest MMA scene, including his wild amateur debut in a Cage Rage tournament against a one-armed opponent, early pro fights under Keith Palmer at venues like the 82nd Saloon and Madtown Throwdown, and training alongside legends such as Chris Liddell and Alex Stiebling at Integrated Fighting. He details his explosive UFC run, highlighted by a standout TKO victory over Pride veteran Heath Herring, and memorable bouts against elite competition: Andrei Arlovski, Cain Velasquez, and a young Jon Jones at UFC 100.The conversation covers O'Brien's wrestling roots, his identical twin brother's boxing background, the challenges of balancing college athletics with unsanctioned fights, the evolution of regional MMA in Indiana, and life after the Octagon, including coaching at Top Level gym in Indianapolis and his current work as a rural mail carrier. He also opens up about personal challenges, family resilience, and the support he received during difficult times.Hosted by the MMA Detective Mike Davisand Joey Venti, this episode preserves the unfiltered history of mixed martial arts through the eyes of a true pioneer who faced multiple future champions and helped build the sport's Midwest foundation.Listen for insights into early UFC matchmaking, the raw intensity of 2000s regional shows, and the lasting impact of wrestling in MMA.Subscribe for more interviews and stories direct from the men who lived MMA history.#MMAHistory #JakeOBrien #UFC #Wrestling

What if time travel wasn't about discovery—but control?In this episode of Reckoning with Jason Herbert, we dive into the 1994 sci-fi action film Timecop—a quintessential 90s blockbuster starring Jean-Claude Van Damme that blends time travel, political corruption, and high-octane action into something far more revealing than it first appears.Joining me are Reckoning stalwarts and my great friends, historians Robert Greene II and John Wyatt Greenlee. Together, we explore what Timecop tells us about the 1990s—an era shaped by anxieties over government power, deregulation, and the growing sense that the past itself could be weaponized.We talk about:How Timecop reflects 90s fears of political corruption and unchecked authorityThe idea of “policing time” and who gets to control historyWhere Van Damme fits in the action hero pantheonWhy a film built on spectacle still raises meaningful historical questionsThis episode is part of our ongoing Historians At The Movies series, where we use film as a lens to think more deeply about history, culture, and the stories we tell ourselves about both.

In a world consumed by the ordinary, a shadowy force spanning millennia looms. Prepare to embark on a thrilling journey with investigator Gary Wayne as he delves into the ultimate forbidden history: The Genesis 6 Conspiracy. From the ancient era of rebel angels descending to Earth, to the modern-day corridors of power held by the Freemasons and the Rosicrucians, a bloodline has endured in secrecy. These are the descendants of the Nephilim—ancient giants reborn in the shadows of the elite—and they are meticulously orchestrating the arrival of the Antichrist. This isn't just history; it's a tactical blueprint for the enslavement of all mankind, concealed in plain sight since the dawn of time. Join us as we sit down with Gary Wayne to discuss his captivating book, The Genesis 6 Conspiracy.

We really hope you enjoyed this episode, and if you did, it would mean a huge amount if you could head over to the Untitled History Podcast channel right now, give it a follow and leave a quick review! https://open.spotify.com/show/1pVhf1zLs05L1hPwsB2tJIhttps://www.youtube.com/@UntitledHistoryPodlisten.untitled-history.com From as early as 7000 years before the common era, we have evidence suggesting cats served alongside humans on ships. This isn't just in a civilian capacity. As long as there have been warships, cats have served on them around the world. This is a tradition that has extended well into the modern era. At least 12 cats are known to have been present at the D-Day landings in June 1944. There were almost certainly more felines present in those critical early hours than dogs. Cats would continue to have an official presence on Royal Navy vessels until they were officially banned in 1975, and just how rigorously that ban has been enforced remains a question sometimes today. Individual ship's cats have sometimes been the subject of articles, videos and podcasts. What's often not covered in detail though, is why cats were so important on ships, and how ships throughout the ages managed their presence. So today, in this episode, we're going to explore both the history and logistics of one of the most critical elements of naval history - the ship's cat. Do you like our podcast?

In this episode of Reckoning, historian Andrew Wehrman, author of Contagion of Liberty, explores how smallpox and inoculation shaped the American founding—and ignited some of the earliest debates over liberty, risk, and public health.Long before COVID-19, Americans wrestled with questions of bodily autonomy, religious belief, communal obligation, and government authority, all in the shadow of a deadly disease and without modern medical knowledge. From local resistance to inoculation to George Washington's controversial decision to mandate it in the Continental Army, this conversation places early American public health in its full moral and political context.By looking closely at how Americans responded to smallpox, this episode shows why vaccine controversy is not a modern anomaly—but a recurring feature of American life—and what our past can (and cannot) teach us about navigating public health crises today.

Historians Dominic Sandbrook & Tom Holland feel surprisingly aroused and chuffed, respectively, about being Conan O'Brien's friends. Hosts of The Rest Is History podcast Dominic Sandbrook and Tom Holland sit down with Conan to discuss laughing through the grimmest historical episodes, all-time favorite heroes of yore, and allowing history to remind us that everything is cyclical. Later, Conan consults his (not so) fake lawyer David Melmed about singing popular songs on the podcast. For Conan videos, tour dates and more visit TeamCoco.com.Got a question for Conan?
