In the latest episode I explore the theory that a Welsh Prince named Madoc arrived in the New World 300 years before Columbus. This takes me down a strange rabbit hole filled with stories about Welsh speaking indigenous groups in America. Hope you dig! art19.com/shows/our-fa...

Dude... this looks supremely badass
Pic I meant to post last month to note #WizardWednesday, the good chill in the air at the start of sweater weather, of course my own wizardly #fantasy book series, & some shilling for @ourfakehistory.bsky.social in the meantime -- don't have the episode yet but bought the shirt immediately.

We are kicking off October with Werewolves! This mythical beast has a surprising history. How should we understand the "real" werewolves from ages past? I also talk a lot about "werewolf ointment." Enjoy!

I went to do a bit of my own thieving on a pilgrimage to London this year.

Season 11 kicks off with a look at the Parthenon Sculptures aka the Elgin Marbles. The debate around these controversial museum objects is riddled with historical myths! Did Lord Elgin "save" these works of art or is that fake history?

Considering all his other great artwork, I’m biased as I’m a big fan of Samurai history. But damn this is good!

I was really proud of this one! I'm glad it resonated with you.
Chef’s kiss for the Wizard of Oz episode. Well performed, great intertwining of stories, and brilliant use of “Money” as the final point.

Congrats and thanks for 10 years.
