Jeremy is joined by author, history buff and publisher Jay Sandlin about his book "Outbreak Mutiny" and his love of history and superheroes.

About Outbreak Mutiny

December 31, 1929, was a Day That Lived in Infamy. A war between extraordinary beings with superpowers ended in DEFEAT for the United States and her Allies. Darkness fell on a Golden Age of heroes at the hands of the REICH. 

Ten years later, all still mourn the anniversary of the day the Reich seized control during Operation TripleReich. Life is a struggle for the Remnant States occupying the middle of the Old US. 

No Matter the Time or Place, their Choice is Clear: 

Die Free or Live in Chains.
