Appearance on History on Fire

While you’re eagerly awaiting the next DHP episode, please check out my appearance on the most recent episode of Daniele Bolelli’s History on Fire!

This is a really neat, unique type of episode: an anthology of shorter (20-30 min) segments by a great group of history podcasters. The theme of the episode that unites the diverse topics is “Ripples of History,” the idea that sometimes seemingly minor historical phenomena can ripple down through time and end up having a big impact on the future.

In addition to myself, you’ll hear segments from Sam Davis of Inward Empire, Alexander Von Sternberg of History Impossible, Sebastian Major of Our Fake History, and Darryl Cooper of Martyrmade. Check it out!
