    1001 Heroes, Legends, Histories & Mysteries Podcast

    After 12 years and more than 650 stories, we could tell you what makes 1001 Heroes, Legends, Histories & Mysteries different. But we’d rather let our listeners tell you why they keep coming back.

    They tell us they love the stories. This isn’t history delivered as a dry collection of names and dates. Host and storyteller Jon Hagadorn searches out fascinating people, remarkable events, great adventures, enduring legends, and mysteries that make the past come alive.

    They tell us they love the variety. One episode might take you into an ancient civilization, another into World War II, the Old West, Hollywood history, an unsolved mystery, true crime, a remarkable survival story, lost treasure, the paranormal, or an event that still leaves us searching for answers.

    You never know where history will take us next.

    And perhaps most important, listeners tell us they simply enjoy the way the stories are told: well researched, entertaining, relaxed, and easy to listen to. We’re proud that some have been listening for years, discovering people, events, and corners of history they never knew would interest them.

    Whether you’re a lifelong history lover or simply someone who loves a great story, there’s a place for you here.

    Come for the history. Stay for the stories.

    Show notes

    "History's Greatest Heavyweight Fight: Hannibal vs Scipio Africanus"- It would make an epic film-with Hannibal's 40,000 soldiers and 90 elephants meeting Scipio's rising Roman legions in the Battle of Zama, home turf for the empire of Carthage in what is present day Tunisia on the North coast of Africa. Hannibal, at age 45, and known as a brilliant military tactician, faces a much younger and now famous Scipio, who has sworn to take Carthage down.

    CUSTER'S LAST STAND : THE LAST MAN STANDING Apr 28, 2015
    Show notes

    "Custer's Last Stand-the Last Man Standing"The incredible story of 7th cavalry trooper Frank Finkel, who for fear of being branded as a deserter, waited 44 years to tell his story of what happened once the action started and Custer's attack began. In the years after the Battle of the Little Bighorn, 70 so-called "lone survivors" had come forward, only to have their stories discounted as lies. Thanks to the work of various historians, and documents that support their research, Finkel's story has been proven true. The Battle of the Little Bighorn was a huge victory for the tribes united under the Sioux, but the beginning of the end for the American Indian's way of life as a new civilization was sweeping westward in America.

    THE FIRST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP Mar 29, 2015
    Show notes

    "The First American Road Trip"- In 1903 there were only 150 miles of paved roads in America. The new fangled automobiles were considered by most to be a passing fad. On May 19th of that year, at a gentleman's club in San Francisco, a Vermont doctor named Horatio Nelson Jackson, believing that cars were the future of America, accepted a $50 bet that he could drive from California to Albany. Jackson, his mechanic Seawall Crocker, and a pit bull named Bud were to earn their places in the pages of history with America's First Road Trip.
