The first episode of the History's Trainwrecks Podcast defines a historical trainwreck and their roles in history.

Don't be mad because I call them trainwrecks. These people were at the top of their game, and failed within sight of their goals.

Were it not for some quality they had, they might have gotten everything they wanted. Instead they ended up in relative obscurity.

I give a few examples of history's trainwrecks, and how I define the word for the podcast.

This is the stuff we never learned in school.

Thanks for listening, and for your support.
