The Revisionist History Podcast

Today's brief episode gives a long overdue update.

Hollywood doesn't care much about historical accuracy, and historically accurate movies aren't always great. The five we cover in today's Throwback Thursday episode are both accurate historically and excellent films as well.

In today's episode, we explore both some facts and some myths about the most forgotten war in American history: the War of 1812.

In today's episode, we travel back to the time of King Henry VIII of England to meet a man who took a conscientious stand against the king and paid the ultimate price.

In today's episode, we debunk the persistent myth that the Victorian Age in England was one of total sexual repression. The facts are much more interesting.

Merry Christmas! We all know the Christmas story from Luke's gospel, but in honor of the holiday, today's special Christmas episode looks at a Christmas story you may not be familiar with.

To wrap up the year, we will be looking back at some of the most popular episodes of 2023. We start with an episode debunking three persistent myths from the Age of Sail.

Rather than debunking Christmas myths (which we did in an earlier episode anyway), today we'll be looking at the origins of two of our most cherished and enduring Christmas traditions: the Christmas tree and the Nativity scene.

Today is the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Americas. In today's episode, we take a closer look at her appearance to St. Juan Diego 500 years ago.

We're right at two weeks before Christmas, which makes it the perfect time to debunk some long-held and long-cherished myths about the holiday.
