    The Craziest Governor of Oklahoma: Alfalfa Bill Murray

    Alfalfa Bill Murray declared martial law over thirty times, and wrote an autobiography so embarassing that his family would steal it out of libraries. After a political defeat, he tried to start a colony in Bolivia, and failed at that, too. And was SUPER racist.

  7. The (Maybe?) Fake King of France: Karl Wilhelm Naurndorff

    6월 17일

    The (Maybe?) Fake King of France: Karl Wilhelm Naurndorff

    Karl Wilhelm Naurndorff made a compelling case that he was the dauphin of France, spirited away by Talleyrand or some other insider after the death of his father, King Louis XVI. He was convincing enough that he kept getting stabbed, shot, and run out of countries, before winding up in the Netherlands as the head of pyrotechnics.  But WAS he really the king? In this LPS episode, we settle it once and for all!
