Ever wondered what it's like to wake up at 3:30 AM every day? Bradley takes us through his early morning routine, while his co-host shares a hilarious story about a massage gone awry. We then tackle our love-hate relationship with social media, reminiscing about the golden days of MySpace versus the complexities of today’s platforms. Juggling podcast duties, Bradley dives into his editing and website maintenance, while his co-host Kate handles the research and social media, showcasing the teamwork behind our episodes.
Join us on a thrilling journey back to colonial Massachusetts as we recount the Midnight Rides of 1775. Discover the daring efforts of Paul Revere, William Dawes, and the crucial role of Robert Newman in the British alert system. We break down the strategic routes taken to warn John Hancock and Samuel Adams, and the brave involvement of Samuel Prescott. We also touch on the intrusion of modern businesses on these historical sites, adding a contemporary twist to our historical narrative.
Finally, we shine a spotlight on the unsung heroes of the American Revolution, including Israel Bissell's marathon ride across five colonies and Sybil Ludington's heroic 40-mile alert of militia forces. We highlight the endurance and skepticism Bissell faced, and the legacy of Ludington’s courageous journey, despite its sparse documentation. As we wrap up, we share personal anecdotes, invite audience interaction, and express our enthusiasm for documentaries about the American Revolution, eagerly awaiting your recommendations. Don’t miss out on this blend of history, humor, and engaging conversations!
