But this isn’t your typical history lecture. Boom Goes the History mixes serious storytelling with plenty of laughs, unexpected trivia, and the occasional irreverent tangent. Our hosts pull back the curtain on how the American Battlefield Trust creates its videos, maps, and educational content, sharing behind-the-scenes stories from filming trips, battlefield visits, and the occasional historical mishap.
