Strange For History

History, the story of us, is something that's often discussed but is sometimes misunderstood. From the charging of Normandy, to the Fall of Rome, everyone is aware of these life changing events from years past. But what of forgotten leaders who watched cities burn, or century long wars over a bucket? What about the strange history? In this podcast, we discuss the parts of history that you might not have heard about in school; from knights of the skies to bridges and encounters with the unknown, join us as we discuss the strange, weird things, that make us, us.

    Episode 39: Dark Science, Revisited

    In 2020, Brad recorded and released Dark Science, an episode talking about human experiments in Nazi Germany. We've grown a lot since then, and a lot has been revealed in the following years as well. This episode is simply a reimagining of the orignal, with more information, more banter, and of course, more history. This episode is a heavy one, so trigger warnings for suicide, nazism, medicine, abuse, and tons of other things.  Due to the nature of this episode, here is a link to find mental health services near you and information on mental health hotlines/text lines: https://www.mentalhealth.gov/ Be sure to check out our friends over at Build-A-Bond: https://anchor.fm/buildabond
