On today’s episode, Valerie shares the petty and ridiculous tale of Andrew Jackson’s murderous duel. This story proves true any rumors of his violent temper and obsession with retribution for ANY perceived wrongs. We outline the dramatic name-calling, the series of “diss tracks” between him and Charles Dickinson (and friends), the challenge to a duel, the unsavory strategies to win, and a controversial end to the events of that fateful day. Next, Amy Jo presents the 1806 astrology, including Tecumseh’s Eclipse, which when correctly predicted by Shawnee Chief Tecumseh’s brother, Shawnee prophet Tenskwatawa, helped to further their cause of forming a united Native Peoples coalition. Lastly, we discuss Pluto in Pisces, Biela’s Comet, and whatever happened to Merriweather Lewis?

On today’s episode, we visit our old friends Napoleon and Lewis & Clark. We discuss the beautiful Arc de Triomphe monument, Lewis & Clark’s arrival in St. Louis, which was received with great fanfare (except for that one guy), the invention of carbon paper, the cocktail of cocktails - The Old Fashioned, and finally anthropometry in the 1806 Timeline Twist. Next, Amy Jo tells the sensational story of West v. West, a trial that shocked Salem, Massachusetts society, when wealthy Mrs. Elizabeth “Betsy” West charged the less wealthy Mr. West with adultery during the marriage. It was the first divorce case after a change in divorce law, the scandalous details of which were made much more entertaining by the salacious diary entries of the gossipy Reverend Bentley, who detailed the story seemingly from beginning to end.

On today’s episode, Valerie shares the astonishing story of a rebellion that ensued after a senseless, racially motivated murder in Arkansas, an area that was reeling when its economy was turned upside down after the civil war. The retribution that followed, and the mob’s extended presence in the town afterward was seen as terrorizing or tense, depending on the news source. Next, Amy Jo covers our current day astrology, including the upcoming Gemini New Moon, as well as the astrology of 1871. We discuss OUR Neptune placements, the 1871 eclipses, Comet Encke losing its tail (Boo!), and a ‘Mysterious Meteor Theory’ for Michigan's Great Fires of 1871 in this week’s Zodiac Back.

On today’s episode, Valerie touches on the Ku Klux Klan Act and the Franco-Prussian War, including an unpleasant but likely necessary Paris Seige Menu, new releases of some favorite foods, maybe the first essential oil diffuser, and a historical Easter-Egg laden 1871 Italian map (along with Reddit comments) in the Timeline Twist. Next, Amy Jo tells the gross and gory details of the story of the Whaling Disaster of 1871, where 33 whaling ships were caught in a precarious situation due to their own bravado and stupidity. We discuss a little whaling history, and the tie-in to Moby Dick as well as just how bad it had to have smelled on those lengthy voyages, just so we could light up our cities. We’re looking at you Paris.

On today’s episode, Valerie tells the story of a group of 114th Field Artillery Regiment men, who shortly after the close of WWI, set out for retribution by kidnapping the most sought after man of the day. They were led by Colonel Luke Lea (yes - that’s his real name), and armed with confidence, a Sam Brown Belt, fake papers, and a Cadillac. While the mission failed, we think it makes for one entertaining story. Next, Amy Jo’s Zodiac Back covers the astrology of 1919,which included 4 fiery mercury retrogrades, the eclipse that made Einstein a household name, as well as a special “comet me, bruh” featuring the founder of the Lick Observatory Archives who discovered interstellar bands before retiring to raise her kids and host astrophysicists for tea. And, Caravaggio can paint perspective!

On today’s episode, Valerie’s Timeline Twist outlines a wild year, including wars, riots, and strikes, as well as a LOT of beverages, as folks prepared for prohibition - Boo! We also discuss the second-ever cocktail book written by the highly skilled, famous African-American bartender, Julian Anderson, an appropriated and offbeat new dance called the “Black Bottom”, and the short-lived magazine, Good Morning, featuring the Poor Fish. Next, Amy Jo tells the intense story of the Anarchist Letter Bombings that terrorized post-war America, when pro-labor Galleanists carried out coordinated attacks in April and June of that year which contributed to the backlash of the Palmer Raids and the First Red Scare, although they didn’t know there would be another Red Scare at that time. Anarchists, Communists, Socialists, and Feminists, oh my!

On today’s episode, Valerie shares the calamitous story of the Bisbee Massacre and the Cochise County Cowboys, who galloped into the small Arizona mining town in search of a BIG payoff. The haphazard plan and murderous spree resulted in multiple dead, TWO mobs, a lynching, and a brand spankin’  new gallows, large enough to hang all the outlaws at once. In the Zodiac Back, Amy Jo covers the astrology and eclipses of 1883, we discuss the chart of Mussolini, and check in with the First Family of Astronomy (in our opinion) - The Herschels. Our sign of the week is the mutable water sign, Pisces, and we look at the astrology of the Southern Hemisphere and Maori Astronomy.

On today’s episode, Valerie covers late 19th century advancements in electricity, the man behind the first vaudeville theater in Boston, the mysterious 1883 Hot Springs Mystery Photograph, an unparalleled hair lotion that was celebrated by ALL classes of society all over the world, and greased flagpoles on Evacuation Day, in the 1883 Timeline Twist. Next, Amy Jo tells a tragic story that began with the discovery of the body of a young girl in the Whanganui River. Her struggling single mother offered a number of stories, and was judged harshly by witnesses and spectators alike throughout her trial, during which Phoebe Vietch made New Zealand history by “pleading her belly” - something no one had done before or since.
