    A Fork In Time: The Alternate History Podcast

    Explore the realm of alternate histories as we explore the “what ifs” that can flow from history’s most pivotal moments. Each episode will focus on a specific moment in time–the fork–where history could have taken a different path. A Fork In Time encourages contributions and participation by our community of listeners who have become an integral and vital part of the show.

    This feed is also the home of our companion show, The Room Where It Happened, featuring the team looking at significant historical events without the alternative prespective.

    In May of 334 BCE, the first of three major battles were fought by the invading army of Alexander the Greece of Macedon against the Persians at the Granicus River. The victory by Alexander was very early in the campaign that would see Alexander go on to successfully conquer Asia Minor, Egypt, and Persia.

    Alexander could have died on the field that day were it not for the intervention of Cleitus the Black, one of his commanders, at a critical moment on the heat of the battle.

    How would history have been different if the fatal blow had landed and Alexander had died essentially before his ten-year-long campaign conquest had barely begun?

    Eric Bond joins for this episode.

    From March to July in 1862, the Union army under the command of Gen. George B. McClellan launched the "Peninsula Campaign" as a major offensive and came very near to capturing the Confederate capital of Richmond. In the real historical timeline, the nearly-defeated Confederate forces came under the command of Gen. Robert E. Lee and eventually achieved the Union army's withdrawal. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peninsula_campaign)
    What if the outcome had been different not only for the course of the war but the Reconstruction to follow with an earlier Union victory during this campaign in 1962?

    The 1994 Major League Baseball season was interrupted by a player's strike and never completed.

    How might baseball have been impacted by avoiding the 1994 work stoppage, not only for the teams and players of that year but for the decades that followed?
    Ryan and Kenny Cole join the episode for this exploration.

    In 1846, Donner Party set out on their ill-fated trek across the continent to California facing challenges, starvation, and other hardships with almost half of the original contingent dying in route and rumors of desperate acts being undertaken to survive.
    Few know of the connection that future president Abraham Lincoln had to the group and how he and his wife were invited to be part of the group and their move to California.
    How would history have been different if Abe had chosen to head to California?
    Eric Bond joins the episode to discuss the topic he suggested.

    The last installment of our JFK "Arc" for November 2021.

    Less than a month before the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963, a US-approved coup in South Vietnam removed prime minister Ngo Dinh Diem and his younger brother, Ngo Dihn Nhu, who controlled the secret police and special forces. The regime change was the first in a series of several more in the immediate months and others that would follow through the remaining years of the conflict--leading to instability and uncertainty for much of the duration of the conflict.
    How might the conflict in Vietnam have been different if an alternative expectation on cooperation had been reached with the Ngo regime or subsequent leadership? How might the continuation of a Kennedy presidency have influenced this alternative path?

    German-born Wernher von Braun played a pivotal role in the United States' success in the Space Race and the Apollo program in particular.

    How might things have progressed differently if von Braun had not sustained just a broken arm in a March 1945 car crash prior to the end of World War II and his surrender to American forces?
