They’re whispers from the past—intimate, raw, and sometimes explosive.

Historical letters aren’t just dusty pages in an archive—they’re secret windows into the minds of people who shaped the world. From declarations of love to calls for war, from quiet confessions to bold provocations, these handwritten messages capture the heartbeat of history in a way no textbook ever could.

In this lively and eye-opening episode, Keith opens up a treasure trove of rare and revealing letters—Mark Antony’s passionate words about Cleopatra, Gandhi’s shockingly polite message to Hitler, and many more surprising notes from history’s most iconic figures.

Join Keith as he reads between the lines, brings the voices of the past to life, and shows how even the most powerful people once picked up a pen to share their hearts, hatch their plans… or quietly change the course of history.

This is history—unfiltered, unscripted, and straight from the source.
