In this episode, Greg and Chris discuss a man whose name everyone should have been taught a long time ago. Robert Smalls was a slave who stole a Confederate ship, escaped a heavily guarded harbor, and delivered the ship to the Union to gain his family's freedom. That would be an incredible story in its own right, but Robert went on to do so much more cool and important stuff that it's incredible that pretty much no one knows who he is today. So, prepared to be amazed by this tale of a true American hero. Grab a drink and enjoy this episode of HPH entitled Robert Smalls: Ain't Nothing Smalls About These Balls.
