EARLY EPISODE: How the US Almost Annexed the Dominican Republic

About the Wilfrid Laurier sidebar; there is a section at Pier 21 in Halifax that talks about efforts to dissuade African Americans from emigrating to the prairies which included but was not limited to: not taking the calls of prospective black emigrants inquiries nor answering the door if they made the inquiries in-person. A great episode overall and nate's sidebars are always interesting.

Shoutout to rural Southern Indiana, this place does suck and I hate it

Having heard the weird British place names bit from nate. Thought I'd just share Blue Ball Lane. This is on my walk to the supermarket and I died laughing the first time I saw the sign. You're welcome.

Did something happen to the rss feed or did Google just fuck me? The rss that includes the bonus eps just disappeared from my subscriptions and it's showing eps from the main feed in my history.

Time to cancel Nate

Is this the time we invaded by mistake because someone missed the context of a radio transmission and thought they were doing a communism?

Joe if you haven’t seen it Tod’s Workshop is probably up your alley. It’s a YouTube channel about medieval weapons recreations and other military history stuff. They just did a great series in collaboration with a relatively serious historian on testing the susceptibility of French armor to English longsbows with historical recreations. The videos are on the longer side and are great background noise

I've been requesting DR episodes for almost a year and now we finally got one! Thanks Joe!

Aww, I was hoping for a Liam episode, it's been a while since the pod has Yayed our Liams and let's face it, is it really a podcast if it doesn't have actionable threats?

Just wanted to say the lineup has been absolutely bangers lately, the absence of the actionable threats guy has made the show quality improve.

Oh shit this dropped just in time. Just got home with a tall boy. Ready to put off sleep and listen.

Just out of curiosity, in case I missed a memo or announcement, is everything alright with Liam? I can't remember him being on the show since mid December. It's certainly nice to see Nate and Tom too, of course, there've been some very good episodes lately, but I've been feeling an absence of actionable threats against named individuals (outside of WTYP, naturally), and in all sincerity it'd be fun to see Liam again too

Holy fuck I'm drunk and won't listen to this until tomorrow. JTFC
